1.	ORGANIZATION

KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on July 12, 2007 as a Maryland corporation that elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2008. The Company conducts its business primarily through KBS Limited Partnership II, a Delaware limited partnership formed on August 23, 2007 (the “Operating Partnership”), and its subsidiaries. The Company is the sole general partner of and directly owns a 0.1% partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, KBS REIT Holdings II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company formed on August 23, 2007 (“KBS REIT Holdings II”), owns the remaining 99.9% partnership interest in the Operating Partnership and is its sole limited partner.

The Company invested in a diverse portfolio of real estate and real estate-related investments. As of March 31, 2017, the Company owned 11 real estate properties (consisting of 10 office properties (one of which was held for sale) and an office campus consisting of eight office buildings). In addition, as of March 31, 2017, the Company owned one real estate loan receivable.

Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, the business of the Company is managed by KBS Capital Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”), an affiliate of the Company, pursuant to an advisory agreement the Company renewed with the Advisor on May 21, 2016 (the “Advisory Agreement”). The Advisory Agreement may be renewed for an unlimited number of one-year periods upon the mutual consent of the Advisor and the Company. Either party may terminate the Advisory Agreement upon 60 days’ written notice. The Advisor owns 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Upon commencing its initial public offering (the “Offering”), the Company retained KBS Capital Markets Group LLC (the “Dealer Manager”), an affiliate of the Advisor, to serve as the dealer manager of the Offering. The Company ceased offering shares of common stock in its primary offering on December 31, 2010 and terminated its primary offering on March 22, 2011. The Company terminated its dividend reinvestment plan effective May 29, 2014.

The Company sold 182,681,633 shares of common stock in its primary offering for gross offering proceeds of $1.8 billion. The Company sold 30,903,504 shares of common stock under its dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $298.2 million. Also as of March 31, 2017, the Company had redeemed 25,075,292 shares sold in the Offering for $241.1 million.


2.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies since it filed its audited financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. For further information about the Company’s accounting policies, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and condensed notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair and consistent presentation of the results for such periods. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, KBS REIT Holdings II, the Operating Partnership, and their direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements and condensed notes thereto in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and condensed notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Per Share Data

Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock equals basic net income (loss) per share of common stock as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Distributions declared per common share were $0.068 and $0.070 in the aggregate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Distributions declared per common share assumes each share was issued and outstanding each day that was a record date for distributions and were based on a monthly record date for each month during the periods commencing January 2017 through March 2017 and January 2016 through March 2016.

Segments

The Company invested in core real estate properties and real estate-related investments with the goal of acquiring a portfolio of income-producing investments. The Company’s real estate properties exhibit similar long-term financial performance and have similar economic characteristics to each other. Beginning with the reporting period commencing on January 1, 2016, the Company aggregated its investments in real estate properties into one reportable business segment. The Company considered both quantitative and qualitative thresholds and determined that its investment in a real estate loan receivable does not constitute a reportable segment. Prior to the reporting period commencing on January 1, 2016, the Company had identified two reportable business segments based on its investment types: real estate and real estate-related. However, based on the Company’s current investment portfolio, the Company does not believe that its investment in a real estate-related investment is a reportable segment.

Square Footage, Occupancy and Other Measures

Any references to square footage, occupancy or annualized base rent are unaudited and outside the scope of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm’s review of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with the standards of the United States Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Update

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU No. 2014-09”). ASU No. 2014-09 requires an entity to recognize the revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes the revenue requirements in Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. ASU No. 2014-09 does not apply to lease contracts within the scope of Leases (Topic 840). ASU No. 2014-09 was to be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early application not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU No. 2015-14”), which defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. Early adoption is permitted but not before the original effective date. As the primary source of revenue for the Company is generated through leasing arrangements, which are scoped out of this standard, the Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU No. 2016-01”). The amendments in ASU No. 2016-01 address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. ASU No. 2016-01 primarily affects accounting for equity investments and financial liabilities where the fair value option has been elected. ASU No. 2016-01 also requires entities to present financial assets and financial liabilities separately, grouped by measurement category and form of financial asset in the balance sheet or in the accompanying notes to the financial statements. ASU No. 2016-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2016-01 to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU No. 2016-02”). The amendments in ASU No. 2016-02 change the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 as of its issuance is permitted. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new leases standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses of Financial Instruments (“ASU No. 2016-13”). ASU No. 2016-13 affects entities holding financial assets and net investments in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The amendments in ASU No. 2016-13 require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. ASU No. 2016-13 also amends the impairment model for available-for-sale securities. An entity will recognize an allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities as a contra-account to the amortized cost basis rather than as a direct reduction of the amortized cost basis of the investment, as is currently required. ASU No. 2016-13 also requires new disclosures. For financial assets measured at amortized cost, an entity will be required to disclose information about how it developed its allowance for credit losses, including changes in the factors that influenced management’s estimate of expected credit losses and the reasons for those changes. For financing receivables and net investments in leases measured at amortized cost, an entity will be required to further disaggregate the information it currently discloses about the credit quality of these assets by year of the asset’s origination for as many as five annual periods. For available for sale securities, an entity will be required to provide a roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses and an aging analysis for securities that are past due. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is still evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-13 on its financial statements, but does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 to have a material impact on its financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU No. 2016-15”). ASU No. 2016-15 is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in ASU No. 2016-15 provide guidance on eight specific cash flow issues, including the following that are or may be relevant to the Company: (a) Cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs should be classified as cash outflows for financing activities; (b) Cash payments relating to contingent consideration made soon after an acquisition’s consummation date (i.e., approximately three months or less) should be classified as cash outflows for investing activities. Payments made thereafter should be classified as cash outflows for financing activities up to the amount of the original contingent consideration liability. Payments made in excess of the amount of the original contingent consideration liability should be classified as cash outflows for operating activities; (c) Cash payments received from the settlement of insurance claims should be classified on the basis of the nature of the loss (or each component loss, if an entity receives a lump-sum settlement); (d) In the absence of specific guidance, an entity should classify each separately identifiable cash source and use on the basis of the nature of the underlying cash flows. For cash flows with aspects of more than one class that cannot be separated, the classification should be based on the activity that is likely to be the predominant source or use of cash flow. ASU No. 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is still evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-15 on its financial statements, but does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2016-15 to have a material impact to its financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (“ASU No. 2016-18”). ASU No. 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning of period and end of period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. ASU No. 2016-18 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company elected to early adopt ASU No. 2016-18 for the reporting period ended December 31, 2016 and it was applied retrospectively. As a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2016-18, the Company no longer presents the changes within restricted cash in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Operating Leases

The Company’s real estate properties are leased to tenants under operating leases for which the terms and expirations vary. As of March 31, 2017, the leases had remaining terms, excluding options to extend, of up to 14.6 years with a weighted-average remaining term of 5.2 years. Some of the leases have provisions to extend the term of the leases, options for early termination for all or part of the leased premises after paying a specified penalty, rights of first refusal to purchase the property at competitive market rates, and other terms and conditions as negotiated. The Company retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to tenants. Generally, upon the execution of a lease, the Company requires a security deposit from the tenant in the form of a cash deposit and/or a letter of credit. The amount required as a security deposit varies depending upon the terms of the respective lease and the creditworthiness of the tenant, but generally is not a significant amount. Therefore, exposure to credit risk exists to the extent that a receivable from a tenant exceeds the amount of its security deposit. Security deposits received in cash related to tenant leases are included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and totaled $2.4 million and $2.5 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized deferred rent from tenants, net of lease incentive amortization, of $0.9 million and $1.3 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the cumulative deferred rent balance was $58.6 million and $57.9 million, respectively, and is included in rents and other receivables on the accompanying balance sheets. The cumulative deferred rent balance included $10.3 million and $10.9 million of unamortized lease incentives as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

As of March 31, 2017, the future minimum rental income from the Company’s properties under non-cancelable operating leases was as follows (in thousands):



April 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017	$	93,946
2018	119,595

2020	99,381
2021	86,099
Thereafter	264,558
	$	769,417

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had approximately 190 tenants over a diverse range of industries and geographic areas. The Company’s highest tenant industry concentrations (greater than 10% of annualized base rent) were as follows:



Industry	Number of Tenants	Annualized Base Rent ⁽¹⁾ (in thousands)		Percentage of Annualized Base Rent

No other tenant industries accounted for more than 10% of annualized base rent. The Company had not identified any material tenant credit issues as of March 31, 2017.

With respect to the lease that expires on January 31, 2022, Union Bank has two options to extend the term of this lease for three, four, five, six or seven years per option term, provided that the combined renewal option terms do not exceed 10 years. If Union Bank elects to exercise its extension options, it must extend the lease on (i) the entire office premise or (ii) no less than 200,000 rentable square feet consisting of full floors only plus either all or none of both the retail and vault space.

No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of annualized base rent.

Geographic Concentration Risk

As of March 31, 2017, the Company’s net investments in real estate in California and New Jersey represented 31.0% and 22.2% of the Company’s total assets, respectively. As a result, the geographic concentration of the Company’s portfolio makes it particularly susceptible to adverse economic developments in the California and New Jersey real estate markets. Any adverse economic or real estate developments in these markets, such as business layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, relocations of businesses, changing demographics and other factors, or any decrease in demand for office space resulting from the local business climate, could adversely affect the Company’s operating results and its ability to make distributions to stockholders.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company incurred $4.0 million and $4.5 million of interest expense, respectively. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, $1.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of interest expense were payable. Included in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were $0.3 million and $0.4 million of amortization of deferred financing costs, respectively. As a result of unrealized gains on the Company’s interest rate swap agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2017, interest expense was reduced by $11,000. Interest expense incurred as a result of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $0.5 million.

The following is a schedule of maturities, including principal amortization payments, for all notes payable outstanding as of March 31, 2017 (in thousands):



April 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017	$	331,320
2018	56,750

	$	523,539

The Company plans to exercise its extension options available under its loan agreements, if applicable, or pay off or refinance the related notes payable prior to their maturity dates.

Certain of the Company’s notes payable contain financial debt covenants. As of March 31, 2017, the Company was in compliance with these debt covenants.


8.	DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company enters into derivative instruments for risk management purposes to hedge its exposure to cash flow variability caused by changing interest rates. The primary goal of the Company’s risk management practices related to interest rate risk is to prevent changes in interest rates from adversely impacting the Company’s ability to achieve its investment return objectives. The Company does not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes.

The Company enters into interest rate swaps as a fixed rate payer to mitigate its exposure to rising interest rates on its variable rate notes payable. The value of interest rate swaps is primarily impacted by interest rates, market expectations about interest rates, and the remaining life of the instrument. In general, increases in interest rates, or anticipated increases in interest rates, will increase the value of the fixed rate payer position and decrease the value of the variable rate payer position. As the remaining life of the interest rate swap decreases, the value of both positions will generally move towards zero.

The following table summarizes the notional amount and other information related to the Company’s interest rate swaps as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The notional amount is an indication of the extent of the Company’s involvement in each instrument at that time, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks (dollars in thousands):

Interest Rate Swaps	Other liabilities, at fair value	1	$	(27	)	1	$	(107	)

The change in fair value of the effective portion of a derivative instrument that is designated as a cash flow hedge is recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) and as other comprehensive income in the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. Amounts in other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified into earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged cash flow. The change in fair value of the ineffective portion is recognized directly in earnings. With respect to swap agreements that were terminated for which it remains probable that the original hedged forecasted transactions (i.e., LIBOR-based debt service payments) will occur, the loss related to the termination of these swap agreements is included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into earnings over the period of the original forecasted hedged transaction. The change in fair value of a derivative instrument that is not designated as a cash flow hedge is recorded as interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The following table summarizes the effects of derivative instruments on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):

_____________________

⁽¹⁾ All of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements were initially designated as cash flow hedges. During 2014, the Company dedesignated all of its interest rate swap instruments due to the anticipated early repayment of debt in connection with asset sales, and therefore, certain hedged forecasted transactions were no longer probable beyond the projected asset sale date.

9.	FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Under GAAP, the Company is required to measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, the Company is required to measure other non-financial and financial assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis (e.g., carrying value of impaired real estate loans receivable and long-lived assets). Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:


•	Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;


•	Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and


•	Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The fair value for certain financial instruments is derived using a combination of market quotes, pricing models and other valuation techniques that involve significant management judgment. The price transparency of financial instruments is a key determinant of the degree of judgment involved in determining the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. Financial instruments for which actively quoted prices or pricing parameters are available and for which markets contain orderly transactions will generally have a higher degree of price transparency than financial instruments for which markets are inactive or consist of non-orderly trades. The Company evaluates several factors when determining if a market is inactive or when market transactions are not orderly. The following is a summary of the methods and assumptions used by management in estimating the fair value of each class of assets and liabilities for which it is practicable to estimate the fair value:

Cash and cash equivalents, rent and other receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities: These balances approximate their fair values due to the short maturities of these items.

Real estate loan receivable: The Company’s real estate loan receivable is presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at its amortized cost net of recorded loan loss reserves (if applicable) and not at fair value. The fair value of the real estate loan receivable was estimated using an internal valuation model that considered the expected cash flows for the loan, underlying collateral value (for collateral-dependent loans) and estimated yield requirements of institutional investors for loans with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs.

Derivative instruments: The Company’s derivative instruments are presented at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The valuation of these instruments is determined using a proprietary model that utilizes observable inputs. As such, the Company classifies these inputs as Level 2 inputs. The proprietary model uses the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and volatility. The fair values of interest rate swaps are estimated using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit risks to the contracts, are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk.

Notes payable: The fair value of the Company’s notes payable is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s estimates of current market interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value ratio, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs.

The following were the face values, carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s real estate loan receivable and notes payable as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, which carrying amounts do not generally approximate the fair values (in thousands):



	March 31, 2017						December 31, 2016
	Face Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Face Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Financial assets:
Real estate loan receivable	$	14,033	$	14,037	$	14,043	$	14,073	$	14,079	$	14,089
Financial liabilities:
Notes payable	$	523,539	$	522,968	$	521,056	$	524,296	$	523,771	$	522,296

Disclosure of the fair values of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to the Company as of the period end and requires a significant amount of judgment. Low levels of transaction volume for certain financial instruments have made the estimation of fair values difficult and, therefore, both the actual results and the Company’s estimate of value at a future date could be materially different.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company measured the following liabilities at fair value (in thousands):



			Fair Value Measurements Using
	Total		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Recurring Basis:

On January 6, 2014, the Company, together with KBS Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc., KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc., KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc., KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc., KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT II, Inc., the Dealer Manager, the Advisor and other KBS-affiliated entities, entered into an errors and omissions and directors and officers liability insurance program where the lower tiers of such insurance coverage are shared. The cost of these lower tiers is allocated by the Advisor and its insurance broker among each of the various entities covered by the program, and is billed directly to each entity. The allocation of these shared coverage costs is proportionate to the pricing by the insurance marketplace for the first tiers of directors and officers liability coverage purchased individually by each REIT. The Advisor’s and the Dealer Manager’s portion of the shared lower tiers’ cost is proportionate to the respective entities’ prior cost for the errors and omissions insurance. In June 2015, KBS Growth & Income REIT, Inc. was added to the insurance program at terms similar to those described above. The Company has renewed its participation in the program, and the program is effective through June 30, 2017.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, no other business transactions occurred between the Company and KBS Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc., KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc., KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc., KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc., KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT II, Inc. and KBS Growth & Income REIT, Inc.

Pursuant to the terms of these agreements, summarized below are the related-party costs incurred by the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and any related amounts payable as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (in thousands):



	Incurred				Payable as of
	Three Months Ended March 31,				March 31,		December 31,

_____________________

⁽¹⁾ Reimbursable operating expenses primarily consists of internal audit personnel costs, accounting software and cybersecurity related expenses incurred by the Advisor under the Advisory Agreement. The Company has reimbursed the Advisor for the Company’s allocable portion of the salaries, benefits and overhead of internal audit department personnel providing services to the Company. These amounts totaled $49,000 and $49,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and were the only type of employee costs reimbursed under the Advisory Agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. The Company will not reimburse for employee costs in connection with services for which the Advisor earns acquisition, origination or disposition fees (other than reimbursement of travel and communication expenses) or for the salaries or benefits the Advisor or its affiliates may pay to the Company’s executive officers. In addition to the amounts above, the Company reimburses the Advisor for certain of the Company’s direct costs incurred from third parties that were initially paid by the Advisor on behalf of the Company.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company had a $0.1 million property insurance rebate due from the Advisor.


11.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Economic Dependency

The Company is dependent on the Advisor for certain services that are essential to the Company, including the disposition of real estate and real estate-related investments; management of the daily operations of the Company’s real estate and real estate-related investment portfolio; and other general and administrative responsibilities.

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements of KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. and the notes thereto. As used herein, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and, as required by context, KBS Limited Partnership II, a Delaware limited partnership, which we refer to as the “Operating Partnership,” and to their subsidiaries.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “should” or similar expressions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law.

The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all of the risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:

•

All of our executive officers and some of our directors and other key real estate and debt finance professionals are also officers, directors, managers, key professionals and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor, the entity that acted as our dealer manager and/or other KBS-affiliated entities. As a result, they face conflicts of interest, including significant conflicts created by our advisor’s compensation arrangements with us and other KBS-sponsored programs and KBS-advised investors and conflicts in allocating time among us and these other programs and investors. These conflicts could result in unanticipated actions.


•	We pay substantial fees to and expenses of our advisor and its affiliates. These payments increase the risk that our stockholders will not earn a profit on their investment in us and increase the risk of loss to our stockholders.

•

We have used proceeds from financings, when necessary, to fund a portion of our distributions during our operational stage. We currently expect that our distributions will generally be paid from cash flow from operations and funds from operations from current or prior periods. We also expect to fund other distributions from the net proceeds from the sale of real estate and from the receipt of principal payments from, or the sale of, our real estate-related loan receivable. We can give no assurance regarding the timing, amount or source of future distributions.

•

We depend on tenants for the revenue generated by our real estate investments and, accordingly, the revenue generated by our real estate investments is dependent upon the success and economic viability of our tenants. Revenues from our properties could decrease due to a reduction in occupancy (caused by factors including, but not limited to, tenant defaults, tenant insolvency, early termination of tenant leases and non-renewal of existing tenant leases) and/or lower rental rates, making it more difficult for us to meet our debt service obligations and limiting our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.

•

Our investments in real estate and our mortgage loan may be affected by unfavorable real estate market and general economic conditions, which could decrease the value of those assets and reduce the investment return to our stockholders. Revenues from our properties and the property and other assets directly securing our loan investment could decrease. Such events would make it more difficult for the borrower under our loan investment to meet its payment obligations to us. It could also make it more difficult for us to meet our debt service obligations and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.


•	Disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions could adversely affect our ability to implement our business strategy and generate returns to our stockholders.


•	Certain of our debt obligations have variable interest rates and related payments that vary with the movement of LIBOR or other indexes. Increases in these indexes could increase the amount of our debt payments and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.

•

Our share redemption program provides only for redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined in the share redemption program document, and, together with redemptions sought in connection with a stockholder’s death, “Special Redemptions”). The dollar amounts available for such redemptions are determined by the board of directors and may be reviewed and adjusted from time to time. Additionally, redemptions are further subject to limitations described in our share redemption program. We currently do not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future.

•

Since we have terminated our dividend reinvestment plan, we may have to use a greater proportion of our cash flow from operations to meet cash requirements for general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, capital expenditures, tenant improvement costs and leasing costs related to our real estate properties; reserves required by financings of our real estate properties; the repayment of debt; and Special Redemptions under our share redemption program. This may reduce cash available for distributions.

•

During the year ended December 31, 2016, we sold one office/flex property and we have one property held for sale as of March 31, 2017. As a result of our disposition activity, our general and administrative expenses, which are not directly related to the size of our portfolio, have increased as a percentage of our cash flow from operations and will continue to increase to the extent we sell additional assets.

•

Although the Special Committee (defined below) has engaged a financial advisor to assist with the exploration of strategic alternatives for us, we are not obligated to enter into any particular transaction or any transaction at all. Further, although we have begun the process of exploring strategic alternatives and are marketing some of our assets for sale, there is no assurance that this process will result in stockholder liquidity, or provide a return to stockholders that equals or exceeds our estimated value per share. We do not expect to provide additional updates regarding our review of strategic alternatives until such time, if any, that we are prepared to announce a material transaction or to conclude the strategic review.

All forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risks identified in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Overview

We were formed on July 12, 2007 as a Maryland corporation that elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2008 and we intend to continue to operate in such a manner. We conduct our business primarily through our Operating Partnership, of which we are the sole general partner. Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, our business is managed by our advisor, KBS Capital Advisors LLC, pursuant to an advisory agreement. KBS Capital Advisors conducts our operations and manages our portfolio of real estate and real estate-related investments. Our advisor owns 20,000 shares of our common stock. We have no paid employees.

We invested in a diverse portfolio of real estate and real estate-related investments. As of March 31, 2017, we owned 11 real estate properties (consisting of 10 office properties (one of which was held for sale) and an office campus consisting of eight office buildings). In addition, as of March 31, 2017, we owned one real estate loan receivable.

On September 27, 2007, we filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to offer a maximum of 280,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public, of which 200,000,000 shares were registered in our primary offering and 80,000,000 shares were registered under our dividend reinvestment plan. We ceased offering shares of common stock in our primary offering on December 31, 2010. We sold 182,681,633 shares of common stock in our primary offering for gross offering proceeds of $1.8 billion. We terminated the offering under our dividend reinvestment plan effective May 29, 2014. We sold 30,903,504 shares of common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $298.2 million. Also as of March 31, 2017, we had redeemed 25,075,292 shares sold in our offering for $241.1 million.

On January 27, 2016, our board of directors formed a special committee (the “Special Committee”) composed of all of our independent directors to explore the availability of strategic alternatives involving us. As part of the process of exploring strategic alternatives, on February 23, 2016, the Special Committee engaged Evercore Group L.L.C. (“Evercore”) to act as our financial advisor and to assist us and the Special Committee with this process. Under the terms of the engagement, Evercore provided various financial advisory services, as requested by the Special Committee as customary for an engagement in connection with exploring strategic alternatives. Although the Special Committee has engaged Evercore to assist us and the Special Committee with the exploration of strategic alternatives for us, we are not obligated to enter into any particular transaction or any transaction at all.

PART I.	FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)


Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

While the Special Committee continues to explore strategic alternatives for us, the Special Committee has determined that it would be in our best interest and the best interest of our stockholders to market some of our assets for sale. Based on the results of this sales effort, the board of directors may conclude that it would be in our best interest and the best interest of our stockholders to sell additional assets and, depending on the scope of the proposed asset sales, thereafter to adopt a plan of liquidation that would involve the sale of our remaining assets. In the event of such a determination, the proposed plan of liquidation would be presented to our stockholders for approval. Alternatively, based on the results of the initial sales effort, the board of directors may conclude that it would be in our best interest and the best interest of our stockholders for us to engage in a limited number of asset sales and continue to operate as a going concern, but with a portfolio that is smaller than the present portfolio. Although we have begun the process of exploring strategic alternatives and are marketing some of our assets for sale, there is no assurance that this process will result in stockholder liquidity, or provide a return to stockholders that equals or exceeds our estimated value per share.

Our focus in 2017 is to: continue to strategically sell assets and consider special distributions to stockholders; negotiate lease renewals or new leases that facilitate the sales process and enhance property stability for prospective buyers; complete capital projects, such as renovations or amenity enhancements, to attract quality buyers; and finalize the strategic alternatives assessment and decide on a course of action.

Market Outlook – Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets

The following discussion is based on management’s beliefs, observations and expectations with respect to the real estate and real estate finance markets.

Conditions in the global capital markets remained unsettled as of the first quarter of 2017. Current economic data and financial market developments suggest that the global economy is improving, although at a slow and uneven pace. European economic growth has recently picked up, whereas the U.K. and China remain areas of concern. Against this backdrop, the central banks of the world’s major industrialized economies are beginning to back away from their strong monetary accommodation. Quantitative easing in Japan and Europe is slowing, but the liquidity generated from these programs continues to impact the global capital markets.

At a duration of 94 months (as of the end of first quarter 2017), the current business cycle, which commenced in June 2009, is the fourth longest in U.S. history, including the post-World War II cycle, which lasted 58 months. In March 2017, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “FED”) increased interest rates for the third time in three years. Expectations are for the rate increases to continue in the wake of ongoing economic growth and some acceleration in inflationary pressures, with the goal of the FED to normalize the level of interest rates. Little in the U.S. macroeconomic data suggests that the economy is growing too rapidly, the primary symptom of trouble ahead for a business cycle. Real gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth has averaged approximately 2% per year over the past two years, and job growth has averaged about 1.7%. Personal income growth has started to pick up and unemployment statistics indicate that labor force conditions are finally showing real improvements.

The U.S. commercial real estate market continues to benefit from inflows of foreign capital, particularly from China. With a backdrop of global political conflict, and stabilizing international economic conditions, the U.S. dollar has remained a safe haven currency. The volume of available capital that is seeking “core” properties has helped to push the pricing of some assets past prior peaks, making some markets look expensive. Reduced leverage ratios have shifted more risk toward the equity investor. Traditional sources of capital are favoring a “risk-off” approach, where investors’ appetite for risk falls, when valuing investments. Investors acquiring properties are extremely selective, with cap rate compression having spread into secondary markets over the last two years. Commercial real estate returns are increasingly being driven by property income (yield), as opposed to price appreciation through cap rate compression.

Lenders with long memories remain disciplined in their underwriting of investments. For balance sheet lenders, such as banks and insurance companies, underwriting standards for commercial real estate have been tightened. This has resulted in lower loan-to-value and higher debt coverage ratios. CMBS originations also have been limited as lenders are attempting to adjust to new securitization rules which require issuers to maintain an ongoing equity stake in pooled transactions. These trends have led to increased uncertainty in the level and cost of debt for commercial properties, and in turn has injected some volatility into commercial real estate markets.

A major factor contributing to the strength of the real estate cycle is the difficulty of securing construction financing. Lack of construction financing is effectively keeping an oversupply of commercial real estate, which is typical late in a real estate cycle, from emerging. Bank regulators and new risk-based capital guidelines have enforced discipline in lending, which has helped reduce new construction.

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Impact on Our Real Estate Investments

The volatility in the global financial markets continues to cause a level of uncertainty in our outlook for the performance of the U.S. commercial real estate markets. Both the investing and leasing environments are highly competitive. While foreign capital continues to flow into U.S. real estate markets, the uncertainty regarding the political, regulatory and economic environments has introduced uncertainty into the markets. Possible future declines in rental rates, slower or potentially negative net absorption of leased space and expectations of future rental concessions, including free rent to renew tenants early, to retain tenants who are up for renewal or to attract new tenants, may result in decreases in cash flows. Historically low interest rates could help offset some of the impact of these potential decreases in operating cash flow for properties financed with variable rate mortgages; however, interest rates in the United States have started to increase. The FED increased interest rates for the third time over the past three years. The real estate and finance markets anticipate further rate increases as long as the economy remains strong. If this trend continues, management will review our debt financing strategies to optimize the cost of our debt exposure.

Impact on Our Real Estate-Related Investment

Our real estate loan receivable is directly secured by commercial real estate. As a result, our real estate-related investment, in general, has been and likely will continue to be impacted by the same factors impacting our real estate properties. The higher yields and the improving credit position of many U.S. tenants and borrowers have attracted global capital. However, the real estate and capital markets are fluid, and the positive trends can reverse quickly. Economic conditions remain relatively volatile and can have a negative impact on the performance of collateral securing our loan investment, and therefore may impact the ability of the borrower under our loan to make contractual interest payments to us.

As of March 31, 2017, we had a fixed-rate real estate loan receivable with an outstanding principal balance of $14.0 million and a carrying value (including unamortized origination and closing costs) of $14.0 million that matures in 2018.

Impact on Our Financing Activities

In light of the risks associated with potentially volatile operating cash flows from some of our real estate properties, and the possible increase in the cost of financing due to higher interest rates, we may have difficulty refinancing some of our debt obligations prior to or at maturity or we may not be able to refinance these obligations at terms as favorable as the terms of our existing indebtedness. Short-term interest rates in the United States have increased. Market conditions can change quickly, potentially negatively impacting the value of our investments.

As of March 31, 2017, we had debt obligations in the aggregate principal amount of $523.5 million with a weighted-average remaining term of 1.1 years. We had a total of $140.0 million of fixed rate notes payable and $383.5 million of variable rate notes payable as of March 31, 2017. The interest rates on $52.6 million of our variable rate notes payable are effectively fixed through an interest rate swap agreement. As of March 31, 2017, we had a total of $383.5 million of debt obligations scheduled to mature within 12 months of that date. We plan to exercise our extension options available under our loan agreements, if applicable, or pay off or refinance the related notes payable prior to their maturity dates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal demands for funds during the short- and long-term are and will be for: the payment of operating expenses, capital expenditures and general and administrative expenses; payments under debt obligations; Special Redemptions of common stock pursuant to our share redemption program; and payments of distributions to stockholders.

We intend to use our cash on hand, cash flow generated by our real estate properties and real estate-related investment, proceeds from debt financing, proceeds from the sale of real estate properties and possibly the principal repayment on or sale of our real estate loan receivable as our primary sources of immediate and long-term liquidity. As of March 31, 2017, we had an aggregate of $25.0 million available for future disbursements under one credit facility, subject to certain conditions and restrictions set forth in the loan agreement.

Our share redemption program provides only for Special Redemptions. During each calendar year, such Special Redemptions are limited to an annual dollar amount determined by the board of directors, which may be reviewed during the year and increased or decreased upon ten business days’ notice to our stockholders. Special Redemptions are made at a price per share equal to the most recent estimated value per share of our common stock as of the applicable redemption date. We currently do not expect to make ordinary redemptions in the future. On December 9, 2016, our board of directors approved an annual dollar limitation of $10.0 million in the aggregate for the calendar year 2017 (subject to review and adjustment during the year by the board of directors), and further subject to the limitations described in the share redemption program. As of March 31, 2017, we had $9.0 million available for Special Redemptions for the remainder of 2017.

Our investments in real estate generate cash flow in the form of rental revenues and tenant reimbursements, which are reduced by operating expenditures, debt service payments, the payment of asset management fees and corporate general and administrative expenses. Cash flow from operations from our real estate investments is primarily dependent upon the occupancy level of our portfolio, the net effective rental rates on our leases, the collectibility of rent and operating recoveries from our tenants and how well we manage our expenditures. As of March 31, 2017, our real estate properties were 85% occupied and our bad debt reserve was less than 1% of annualized base rent.

Our real estate-related investment generates cash flow in the form of interest income, which is reduced by the payment of asset management fees and corporate general and administrative expenses. Cash flow from operations from our real estate-related investment is primarily dependent on the operating performance of the underlying collateral and the borrower’s ability to make debt service payments. As of March 31, 2017, the borrower under our real estate loan receivable was current on its debt service payments to us.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, our cash needs for capital expenditures and the payment of debt obligations were met with the proceeds from the payoff or sale of real estate loans receivable and proceeds from the sales of real estate properties from prior periods. Operating cash needs during the same period were met with cash flow generated by our real estate and real estate-related investments. We made distributions to our stockholders during the three months ended March 31, 2017 using cash flows from operations and cash on hand. We believe that our cash on hand, cash flow from operations, availability under our credit facilities, proceeds from the sales of real estate properties and the repayment of or sale of our real estate loan receivable will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. As of March 31, 2017, we had a total of $383.5 million of debt obligations scheduled to mature within 12 months of that date. We plan to exercise our extension options available under our loan agreements, if applicable, or pay down or refinance the related notes payable prior to their maturity dates.

On December 14, 2016, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $5.49 (unaudited) based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2016. For a full description of the assumptions, methodologies and limitations used to value our assets and liabilities in connection with the calculation of our estimated value per share, see Part II, Item 5 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2017.

Our cash flow from operations has decreased and will continue to decrease as a result of our disposition activity, and we have adjusted our distribution policy with respect to the amount of monthly distribution payments to take into account our disposition activity and current real estate investments. We may continue to make strategic asset sales as opportunities become available in the market. Any future special distributions we make from the proceeds of future dispositions will reduce our estimated value per share and this reduction will be reflected in our updated estimated value per share, which we expect to update no later than December 2017.

On January 27, 2016, our board of directors formed the Special Committee, which is composed of all of our independent directors, to explore the availability of strategic alternatives involving us. As part of the process of exploring strategic alternatives, on February 23, 2016, the Special Committee engaged Evercore to act as our financial advisor and to assist us and the Special Committee with this process. Under the terms of the engagement, Evercore provided various financial advisory services, as requested by the Special Committee as customary for an engagement in connection with exploring strategic alternatives. Although the Special Committee has engaged Evercore to assist us and the Special Committee with the exploration of strategic alternatives for us, we are not obligated to enter into any particular transaction or any transaction at all.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

As of March 31, 2017, we owned 11 real estate properties (consisting of 10 office properties (one of which was held for sale) and an office campus consisting of eight office buildings). In addition, as of March 31, 2017, we owned one real estate loan receivable.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, net cash provided by operating activities was $12.4 million, compared to $12.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the timing of lease commission payments. We anticipate cash flows from operating activities to decrease to the extent we make additional asset sales.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and primarily related to improvements to real estate.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, net cash used in financing activities was $15.0 million and consisted primarily of the following:


•	$12.9 million of cash distributions;


•	$1.0 million of cash used for redemptions of common stock;


•	$0.8 million of principal payments on notes payable; and


•	$0.3 million of payments of deferred financing costs.

In addition to using our capital resources to meet our debt service obligations, for capital expenditures and for operating costs, we use our capital resources to make certain payments to our advisor. We paid our advisor fees in connection with the acquisition and origination of our assets and pay our advisor fees in connection with the management and disposition of our assets and for certain costs incurred by our advisor in providing services to us. Among the fees payable to our advisor is an asset management fee. With respect to investments in real estate, we pay our advisor a monthly asset management fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.75% of the amount paid or allocated to acquire the investment, plus the cost of any subsequent development, construction or improvements to the property. This amount includes any portion of the investment that was debt financed and is inclusive of acquisition fees and expenses related thereto. With respect to investments in loans and any investments other than real estate, we pay our advisor a monthly asset management fee calculated, each month, as one-twelfth of 0.75% of the lesser of (i) the amount paid or allocated to acquire or fund the loan or other investment (which amount includes any portion of the investment that was debt financed and is inclusive of acquisition or origination fees and expenses related thereto) and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of such loan or other investment, plus the acquisition or origination fees and expenses related to the acquisition or funding of such investment, as of the time of calculation. We also continue to reimburse our advisor and our dealer manager for certain stockholder services.

As of March 31, 2017, we had $42.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and up to $25.0 million available for future disbursements under one credit facility, subject to certain conditions and restrictions set forth in the loan agreement, to meet our operational and capital needs.

In order to execute our investment strategy, we primarily utilized secured debt to finance a portion of our investment portfolio. Management remains vigilant in monitoring the risks inherent with the use of debt in our portfolio and is taking actions to ensure that these risks, including refinance and interest rate risks, are properly balanced with the benefit of using leverage. We limit our total liabilities to 75% of the cost (before deducting depreciation and other noncash reserves) of our tangible assets; however, we may exceed that limit if the majority of the conflicts committee approves each borrowing in excess of such limitation and we disclose such borrowings to our stockholders in our next quarterly report with an explanation from the conflicts committee of the justification for the excess borrowing. As of March 31, 2017, our borrowings and other liabilities were approximately 35% of both the cost (before deducting depreciation and other noncash reserves) and book value (before deducting depreciation) of our tangible assets, respectively.

⁽²⁾ Projected interest payments are based on the outstanding principal amounts, maturity dates and interest rates in effect as of March 31, 2017 (consisting of the contractual interest rate and the effect of interest rate floors and swaps, if applicable). We incurred interest expense of $3.9 million, excluding net unrealized gains on interest rate swap agreements of $74,000 and amortization of deferred financing costs totaling $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Results of Operations

Overview

As of March 31, 2016, we owned 10 office properties, one office/flex property, an office campus consisting of eight office buildings and one real estate loan receivable. Subsequent to March 31, 2016, we sold one office/flex property. As a result, as of March 31, 2017, we owned 10 office properties (one of which was held for sale), an office campus consisting of eight office buildings and one real estate loan receivable. The results of operations presented for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 are not directly comparable due to the disposition of one office/flex property subsequent to January 1, 2016. In general, we expect income and expenses to decrease in future periods due to disposition activity.

Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2017 versus the three months ended March 31, 2016

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Rental income and tenant reimbursements decreased from $39.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to $36.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, primarily due to the disposition of one real estate property subsequent to January 1, 2016, a lease termination fee received from a tenant in a property held throughout both periods during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and an overall decrease in portfolio occupancy of 3% related to real estate held for investment, partially offset by an aggregate increase in average annualized base rent per square foot of 0.9% related to real estate held for investment. Overall, we expect rental income and tenant reimbursements to decrease in future periods due to the anticipated dispositions of real estate properties. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, rental income and tenant reimbursements from our real estate property sold were $0.9 million.

Interest income from our real estate loan receivable, recognized using the interest method, remained consistent at $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. Interest income from our real estate loan receivable in future periods compared to historical periods will decrease as a result of the anticipated payoff at maturity or sale of our real estate loan receivable.

Real estate taxes and insurance decreased from $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This decrease was primarily due to the disposition of one real estate property subsequent to January 1, 2016. We expect real estate taxes and insurance to decrease in future periods due to the anticipated dispositions of real estate properties. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, real estate taxes and insurance from our real estate property sold were $0.2 million.

Asset management fees with respect to our real estate and real estate-related investments decreased slightly from $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, primarily due to the disposition of one real estate property subsequent to January 1, 2016. All asset management fees incurred as of March 31, 2017 have been paid. We expect asset management fees to decrease in future periods due to anticipated asset sales or other dispositions. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, asset management fees from our real estate property sold were $0.1 million.

General and administrative expenses decreased from $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This decrease was primarily due to professional fees related to the Special Committee’s engagement of Evercore to act as our financial advisor and legal fees related to the assessment of strategic alternatives during the three months ended March 31, 2016. We did not incur such costs during the three months ended March 31, 2017. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources” for our discussion on the engagement of Evercore and assessment of strategic alternatives.

Depreciation and amortization decreased from $14.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to $13.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 due to the disposition of one real estate property subsequent to January 1, 2016 and as a result of lease terminations and lease expirations related to properties held throughout both periods. We expect depreciation and amortization to decrease in future periods due to the anticipated dispositions of real estate properties and an overall decrease in amortization of tenant origination costs related to lease expirations. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, depreciation and amortization from our real estate property sold were $0.3 million.

Interest expense decreased from $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to an overall decrease in our total debt outstanding due to loan repayments in connection with the disposition of one real estate property subsequent to January 1, 2016, and an overall decrease in the average loan balance of our existing notes payable related to properties held throughout both periods. Included in interest expense is the amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we recorded $0.1 million of unrealized gains and $0.2 million of unrealized losses on interest rate swaps, respectively. In general, we expect interest expense to decrease in future periods due to debt repayments related to assets sold and anticipated asset sales, which may be offset by certain fees and costs that may be incurred due to the prepayment of certain loans. Our interest expense in future periods will also vary based on fluctuations in one-month LIBOR (for our variable rate debt, to the extent that such variable rate debt is not subject to an interest rate swap agreement) and our level of future borrowings, which will depend on the availability and cost of debt financing, draws on our credit facility and any debt repayments we make. In addition, our interest expense in future periods will vary based on fair value changes with respect to our interest rate swap that is not accounted for as a cash flow hedge. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, interest expense from the loan secured by our real estate property sold was $0.2 million.

Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations

We believe that funds from operations (“FFO”) is a beneficial indicator of the performance of an equity REIT. We compute FFO in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. FFO represents net income, excluding gains and losses from sales of operating real estate assets (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates), impairment losses on real estate assets, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We believe FFO facilitates comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other REITs. However, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to other REITs that do not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do. Our management believes that historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. As a result, we believe that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our competitors and provides a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities.

Changes in accounting rules have resulted in a substantial increase in the number of non-operating and non-cash items included in the calculation of FFO. As a result, our management also uses modified funds from operations (“MFFO”) as an indicator of our ongoing performance as well as our dividend sustainability. MFFO excludes from FFO: acquisition fees and expenses; adjustments related to contingent purchase price obligations; amounts relating to straight-line rents and amortization of above and below market intangible lease assets and liabilities; accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; amortization of closing costs relating to debt investments; impairments of real estate-related investments; mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; and gains or losses included in net income for the extinguishment or sale of debt or hedges. We compute MFFO in accordance with the definition of MFFO included in the practice guideline issued by the Investment Program Association (“IPA”) in November 2010 as interpreted by management. Our computation of MFFO may not be comparable to other REITs that do not compute MFFO in accordance with the current IPA definition or that interpret the current IPA definition differently than we do.

We believe that MFFO is helpful as a measure of ongoing operating performance because it excludes non-operating items included in FFO. MFFO excludes non-cash items such as straight-line rental revenue. Additionally, we believe that MFFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance indicators and analysis used by management, in addition to net income and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, to evaluate the sustainability of our operating performance. MFFO provides comparability in evaluating the operating performance of our portfolio with other non-traded REITs which typically have limited lives with short and defined acquisition periods and targeted exit strategies. MFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by non-traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes.

FFO and MFFO are non-GAAP financial measures and do not represent net income as defined by GAAP. Net income as defined by GAAP is the most relevant measure in determining our operating performance because FFO and MFFO include adjustments that investors may deem subjective, such as adding back expenses such as depreciation and amortization and the other items described above. Accordingly, FFO and MFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indicator of our current and historical operating performance. In addition, FFO and MFFO do not represent cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an indication of our liquidity. We believe FFO and MFFO, in addition to net income and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, are meaningful supplemental performance measures; however, neither FFO nor MFFO reflects adjustments for the operations of properties and real estate-related investments sold or held for sale during the periods presented. During periods of significant disposition activity, FFO and MFFO are much more limited measures of future performance and dividend sustainability. In connection with our presentation of FFO and MFFO, we are providing information related to the proportion of MFFO related to properties sold and held for sale and real estate-related investments sold or repaid as of March 31, 2017.

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Although MFFO includes other adjustments, the exclusion of straight-line rent, the amortization of above- and below-market leases, the amortization of discounts and closing costs, termination fees on derivative instruments and unrealized (gains) losses on derivative instruments are the most significant adjustments for the periods presented. We have excluded these items based on the following economic considerations:

•

Adjustments for straight-line rent. These are adjustments to rental revenue as required by GAAP to recognize contractual lease payments on a straight-line basis over the life of the respective lease. We have excluded these adjustments in our calculation of MFFO to more appropriately reflect the current economic impact of our in-place leases, while also providing investors with a useful supplemental metric that addresses core operating performance by removing rent we expect to receive in a future period or rent that was received in a prior period;

•

Amortization of above- and below-market leases. Similar to depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and lease related costs that are excluded from FFO, GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of intangible lease assets and liabilities diminishes predictably over time and requires that these charges be recognized currently in revenue. Since real estate values and market lease rates in the aggregate have historically risen or fallen with local market conditions, management believes that by excluding these charges, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized economics of the real estate;

•

Amortization of discounts and closing costs. Discounts and closing costs related to debt investments are amortized over the term of the loan as an adjustment to interest income. This application results in income recognition that is different than the underlying contractual terms of the debt investments. We have excluded the amortization of discounts and closing costs related to our debt investments in our calculation of MFFO to more appropriately reflect the economic impact of our debt investments, as discounts will not be economically recognized until the loan is repaid and closing costs are essentially the same as acquisition fees and expenses on real estate. We believe excluding these items provides investors with a useful supplemental metric that directly addresses core operating performance;


•	Termination fees on derivative instruments. Termination fees on derivative instruments are included in interest expense. Although these amounts reduce net income, we exclude them from MFFO to more appropriately reflect the ongoing impact of our interest rate swap agreements; and

•

Unrealized (gains) losses on derivative instruments. These adjustments include unrealized (gains) losses from mark-to-market adjustments on interest rate swaps and losses due to hedge ineffectiveness. The change in fair value of interest rate swaps not designated as a hedge and the change in fair value of the ineffective portion of interest rate swaps are non-cash adjustments recognized directly in earnings and are included in interest expense. We have excluded these adjustments in our calculation of MFFO to more appropriately reflect the economic impact of our interest rate swap agreements.

Our calculation of FFO, which we believe is consistent with the calculation of FFO as defined by NAREIT, is presented in the following table, along with our calculation of MFFO, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively (in thousands). No conclusions or comparisons should be made from the presentation of these periods.

Our calculation of MFFO above includes amounts related to the operations of one real estate property sold between January 1, 2016 and March 31, 2017 and one real estate property held for sale as of March 31, 2017. Please refer to the table below with respect to the proportion of MFFO related to the real estate property sold and the real estate property held for sale as of March 31, 2017 (in thousands).

Distributions

Distributions declared, distributions paid and cash flow from operations were as follows for the first quarter of 2017 (in thousands, except per share amounts):



Period	Distributions Declared ⁽¹⁾		Distributions Declared Per Share⁽¹⁾		Distributions Paid ⁽²⁾		Cash Flow From Operations
First Quarter 2017	$	12,770	$	0.068	$	12,866	$	12,404

_____________________

⁽¹⁾ Assumes each share was issued and outstanding each day that was a record date for distributions during the period presented.

⁽²⁾ Other than special distributions, distributions generally are paid on a monthly basis, on or about the first business day of the following month.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we paid aggregate distributions of $12.9 million, all of which were paid in cash. FFO and cash flow from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were $16.6 million and $12.4 million, respectively. We funded our total distributions paid with $12.4 million of current period cash flow from operations and $0.5 million of cash on hand. For purposes of determining the source of our distributions paid, we assume first that we use cash flow from operations from the relevant periods to fund distribution payments. See the reconciliation of FFO to net income above.

Over the long term, we expect that our distributions will generally be paid from cash flow from operations and FFO from current or prior periods (except with respect to distributions related to sales of our assets and distributions related to the repayment of principal under our mortgage loan investment).

During the year ended December 31, 2016, we sold one office/flex property. Our cash flow from operations has decreased and will continue to decrease as a result of our disposition activity, and we have adjusted our distribution policy with respect to the amount of monthly distribution payments to take into account our disposition activity and current real estate investments. We may continue to make strategic asset sales as opportunities become available in the market. Any future special distributions we make from the proceeds of future dispositions will reduce our estimated value per share and this reduction will be reflected in our updated estimated value per share, which we expect to update no later than December 2017.

Our operating performance and ability to pay distributions from our cash flow from operations and/or the disposition of our assets cannot be accurately predicted and may deteriorate in the future due to numerous factors, including those discussed under “Forward — Looking Statements,” “Market Outlook — Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets,” “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Results of Operations” herein and the risks discussed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the SEC. Those factors include: the future operating performance of our investments in the existing real estate and financial environment; the success and economic viability of our tenants; the ability of our borrower to continue to make debt service payments and/or to repay its loan upon maturity; our ability to refinance existing indebtedness at comparable terms; changes in interest rates on our variable rate debt obligations; our ability to successfully dispose of some of our assets; and the sources and amounts of cash we have available for distributions.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated interim financial statements and condensed notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of our financial statements requires significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. A discussion of the accounting policies that management considers critical in that they involve significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC. There have been no significant changes to our policies during 2017.

Subsequent Events

We evaluate subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.

Distributions Paid

On April 3, 2017, we paid distributions of $4.4 million, which related to distributions declared for March 2017 in the amount of $0.02331370 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 20, 2017. On May 1, 2017, we paid distributions of $4.3 million, which related to distributions declared for April 2017 in the amount of $0.02256164 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on April 20, 2017.

Distributions Declared

On May 8, 2017, our board of directors declared a May 2017 distribution in the amount of $0.02331370 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 19, 2017, which we expect to pay in June 2017, and a June 2017 distribution in the amount of $0.02256164 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 20, 2016, which we expect to pay in July 2017.

Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes as a result of borrowings used to maintain liquidity, to fund the financing and refinancing of our real estate and real estate-related investment portfolio, and to fund our operations. Our profitability and the value of our investment portfolio may be adversely affected during any period as a result of interest rate changes. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. We have managed and will continue to manage interest rate risk by maintaining a ratio of fixed rate, long-term debt such that variable rate exposure is kept at an acceptable level. In addition, we may utilize a variety of financial instruments, including interest rate caps, floors, and swap agreements, in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our operations. When we use these types of derivatives to hedge the risk of interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, we may be subject to certain risks, including the risk that losses on a hedge position will reduce the funds available for payments of distributions to our stockholders and that the losses may exceed the amount we invested in the instruments.

We borrow funds and made real estate-related investments at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows on our fixed rate debt or fixed rate real estate loan receivable unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated. However, interest rate changes will affect the fair value of our fixed rate instruments. As of March 31, 2017, the fair value and carrying value of our fixed rate real estate loan receivable were $14.0 million and $14.0 million, respectively. The fair value estimate of our real estate loan receivable is calculated using an internal valuation model that considers the expected cash flows for the loan and the estimated yield requirements of institutional investors for loans with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. As of March 31, 2017, the fair value of our fixed rate debt was $138.0 million and the outstanding principal balance of our fixed rate debt was $140.0 million. The fair value estimate of our fixed rate debt is calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing rates we would expect to pay for debt of a similar type and remaining maturity if the loans were originated as of March 31, 2017. With respect to our fixed rate instruments, we do not expect that fluctuations in interest rates, and the resulting change in fair value of our fixed rate instruments, would have a significant impact on our ongoing operations.

Conversely, movements in interest rates on our variable rate debt would change our future earnings and cash flows, but not significantly affect the fair value of those instruments. However, changes in required risk premiums would result in changes in the fair value of variable rate instruments. As of March 31, 2017, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $330.9 million of variable rate debt outstanding, after giving consideration to the impact of an interest rate swap agreement on approximately $52.6 million of our variable rate debt. Based on interest rates as of March 31, 2017, if interest rates were 100 basis points higher during the 12 months ending March 31, 2018, interest expense on our variable rate debt would increase by $3.3 million. As of March 31, 2017, one-month LIBOR was 0.98278% and if this index were reduced to 0% during the 12 months ending March 31, 2018, interest expense on our variable rate debt would decrease by $3.3 million.

The annual effective interest rate of our fixed rate real estate loan receivable as of March 31, 2017 was 7.6%. The annual effective interest rate represents the effective interest rate as of March 31, 2017, using the interest method, which we use to recognize interest income on our real estate loan receivable. The weighted-average interest rate of our fixed rate debt and variable rate debt as of March 31, 2017 were 3.5% and 2.8%, respectively. The interest rate and weighted-average interest rate represents the actual interest rate in effect as of March 31, 2017 (consisting of the contractual interest rate and the effect of interest rate swaps and floors, if applicable), using interest rate indices as of March 31, 2017, where applicable.

During each calendar year, Special Redemptions are limited to an annual dollar amount determined by the board of directors, which may be reviewed during the year and increased or decreased upon ten business days’ notice to our stockholders. We may provide notice by including such information (a) in a Current Report on Form 8-K or in our annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or (b) in a separate mailing to the stockholders. On December 9, 2016, the board of directors approved the dollar amount limitation for Special Redemptions for calendar year 2017 of $10.0 million in the aggregate (subject to review and adjustment during the year by the board of directors), and further subject to the limitations described in the share redemption program.


•	During any calendar year, we may redeem no more than 5% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year.


•	We have no obligation to redeem shares if the redemption would violate the restrictions on distributions under Maryland General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency.

If we cannot repurchase all shares presented for redemption in any month because of the limitations on redemptions set forth in our share redemption program, then we will honor redemption requests on a pro rata basis, except that if a pro rata redemption would result in a stockholder owning less than the minimum purchase requirement described in our currently effective, or our most recently effective, registration statement as such registration statement has been amended or supplemented, then we would redeem all of such stockholder’s shares.

Upon a transfer of shares, any pending redemption requests with respect to such transferred shares will be canceled as of the date the transfer is accepted by us. Stockholders wishing to continue to have a redemption request related to any transferred shares considered by us must resubmit their redemption request.

Pursuant to the share redemption program, redemptions made in connection with Special Redemptions are made at a price per share equal to the most recent estimated value per share of our common stock as of the applicable redemption date. We do not currently expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future.

Item 2.	Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds (continued)

The only redemptions we made under our share redemption program during the three months ended March 31, 2017 were those that qualified as, and met the requirements for, Special Redemptions under our share redemption program and we fulfilled all redemption requests that qualified as Special Redemptions under our share redemption program. We funded redemptions during the three months ended March 31, 2017 with existing cash on hand.

We may amend, suspend or terminate our share redemption program upon 30 days’ notice to our stockholders, provided that we may increase or decrease the funding available for the redemption of shares under the program upon ten business days’ notice to our stockholders. We may provide this notice by including such information in a Current Report on Form 8-K or in our annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the SEC, or by a separate mailing to our stockholders.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we redeemed shares pursuant to our share redemption program as follows:



Month	Total Number of Shares Redeemed ⁽¹⁾	Average Price Paid Per Share ⁽²⁾		Approximate Dollar Value of Shares Available That May Yet Be Redeemed Under the Program
January 2017	54,480	$	5.49	⁽³⁾
February 2017	79,674	$	5.49	⁽³⁾
March 2017	55,953	$	5.49	⁽³⁾
Total	190,107

_____________________

⁽¹⁾ We announced the adoption and commencement of the program on April 8, 2008. We announced amendments to the program on May 13, 2009 (which amendment became effective on June 12, 2009), on March 11, 2011 (which amendment became effective on April 10, 2011), on May 18, 2012 (which amendment became effective on June 17, 2012), on June 29, 2012 (which amendment became effective on July 29, 2012), on October 18, 2012 (which amendment became effective on November 17, 2012), on March 8, 2013 (which amendment became effective on April 7, 2013), on October 17, 2013 (which amendment became effective on November 16, 2013) and on May 19, 2014 (which amendment became effective on June 18, 2014).

⁽²⁾ In accordance with our share redemption program, the redemption price for Special Redemptions is equal to the most recent estimated value per share of our common stock as of the redemption date. On December 14, 2016, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $5.49 (unaudited) based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2016. The change in the redemption price became effective for the December 30, 2016 redemption date and will be effective until the estimated value per share is updated. We expect to utilize our advisor and/or an independent valuation firm to update the estimated value per share no later than December 2017. For a full description of the methodologies used to value our assets and liabilities in connection with the calculation of the estimated value per share, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2017.

⁽³⁾ We limit the dollar value of shares that may be redeemed under the share redemption program as described above. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we redeemed $1.0 million of shares, which represented all redemption requests received in good order and eligible for redemption through the March 2017 redemption date. Based on the redemption limitations described above and redemptions through March 31, 2017, we may redeem up to $9.0 million of shares in connection with Special Redemptions for the remainder of 2017.
