FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K 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. These include statements about our plans, strategies and Plan of Liquidation (defined herein) and these statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. 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.
For a discussion of some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements, see the risks identified in “Summary Risk Factors” below and in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”).

SUMMARY RISK FACTORS
The following is a summary of the principal risks that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, operations and the Company’s implementation of the Plan of Liquidation. This summary highlights certain of the risks that are discussed further in this Annual Report but does not address all the risks that we face. For additional discussion of the risks summarized below and a discussion of other risks that we face, see “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report. You should interpret many of the risks identified in this summary and under “Risk Factors” as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic, together with the resulting measures imposed to help control the spread of the virus, including quarantines, “shelter-in-place” and “stay-at-home” orders, travel restrictions, restrictions on businesses and school closures, has had a negative impact on the economy and business activity globally. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our operations and those of our tenants and our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation depends on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others.
Although our board of directors and our stockholders have approved the sale of all of our assets and our dissolution pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, we can give no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement the Plan of Liquidation and sell our assets, pay our debts and distribute the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders as we expect. If we underestimated our existing obligations and liabilities or if unanticipated or contingent liabilities arise, the amount of liquidating distributions ultimately paid to our stockholders could be less than estimated. Given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by stockholders.
We may face unanticipated difficulties, delays or expenditures relating to our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, which may reduce or delay our payment of liquidating distributions.
We can give no assurance regarding the timing of asset dispositions in connection with the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, the sale prices we will receive for our assets and the amount and timing of liquidating distributions to be received by our stockholders, which risks are heightened as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19.
We may face risks associated with legal proceedings, including stockholder litigation, that may be instituted against us related to the Plan of Liquidation.
All of our executive officers, one 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.

Table of Contents
We pay substantial fees to and expenses of our advisor and its affiliates. These payments reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders will receive.
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), rent deferrals or abatements, tenants becoming unable to pay their rent and/or lower rental rates, making it more difficult for us to meet our debt service obligations and reducing our stockholders’ returns and the amount of liquidating distributions they receive. From March 2020 through December 31, 2020, we have granted rent relief to eight tenants as a result of the pandemic, and these tenants or additional tenants may request rent relief in future periods or become unable to pay rent and therefore, we are unable to predict the impact that the pandemic will have on the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of our tenants and us due to numerous uncertainties.
Our investments in real estate may be affected by unfavorable real estate market and general economic conditions, which could decrease the value of those assets. Revenues from our properties could decrease. Such events would make it more difficult for us to meet our debt service obligations and successfully implement the Plan of Liquidation, which could reduce our stockholders’ returns and the amount of liquidating distributions they receive.
Continued disruptions in the financial markets, changes in the demand for office properties and uncertain economic conditions could adversely affect our ability to successfully implement our business strategy and the Plan of Liquidation, which could reduce our stockholders’ returns and the amount of liquidating distributions they receive.
As of December 31, 2020, we had $240.5 million of variable debt outstanding, and we may incur additional variable rate debt in the future. The interest and related payments on our variable rate debt will vary with the movement of LIBOR or other indexes. Increases in one-month LIBOR or other indexes would increase the amount of our debt payments and could reduce our stockholders’ returns and the amount of liquidating distributions they receive.
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 do not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, we sold two office properties and four office buildings that were part of an eight-building office campus. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we sold two office properties. 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 as we sell additional assets pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation.

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview
KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation that has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and it intends to operate in such a manner. As used herein, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to the Company and as required by context, KBS Limited Partnership II, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and their subsidiaries. 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 KBS Capital Advisors LLC (“KBS Capital Advisors”), our external advisor, pursuant to an advisory agreement. KBS Capital Advisors conducts our operations and manages our portfolio of real estate investments. Our advisor owns 20,000 shares of our common stock. We have no paid employees.
As of December 31, 2020, we owned four office properties and an office building that is part of an office campus.
As of December 31, 2020, we had 184,299,500 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
On November 13, 2019, in connection with a review of potential strategic alternatives available to us, a special committee composed of all of our independent directors (the “Special Committee”) and our board of directors unanimously approved the sale of all of our assets and our dissolution pursuant to the terms of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution (the “Plan of Liquidation”). The principal purpose of the Plan of Liquidation is to provide liquidity to our stockholders by selling our assets, paying our debts and distributing the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders. On March 5, 2020, our stockholders approved the Plan of Liquidation. The Plan of Liquidation is included as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Plan of Liquidation
In accordance with the Plan of Liquidation, our objectives are to pursue an orderly liquidation of our company by selling all of our remaining assets, paying our debts and our known liabilities, providing for the payment of unknown or contingent liabilities, distributing the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders and winding up our operations and dissolving our company. While pursuing our liquidation pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, we intend to continue to manage our portfolio of assets to maintain and, if possible, improve the quality and income-producing ability of our properties to enhance property stability and better position our remaining assets for sale.
We expect to distribute substantially all of the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders within 24 months from March 5, 2020. Pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, on March 5, 2020, our board of directors authorized an initial liquidating distribution in the amount of $0.75 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2020 (the “Initial Liquidating Distribution”). On July 31, 2020, our board of directors authorized a second liquidating distribution in the amount of $0.25 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2020 (the “Second Liquidating Distribution”), and on December 24, 2020, our board of directors authorized a third liquidating distribution in the amount of $0.40 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 24, 2020 (the “Third Liquidating Distribution”). We expect to continue to pay liquidating distribution payments to our stockholders through the completion of our liquidation process. However, if we cannot sell our assets and pay our debts within 24 months from March 5, 2020, or if the board of directors and the Special Committee determine that it is otherwise advisable to do so, pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, we may transfer and assign our remaining assets to a liquidating trust. Upon such transfer and assignment, our stockholders will receive beneficial interests in the liquidating trust.

Table of Contents
Our expectations about the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation and the amount of any additional liquidating distributions that we will pay to our stockholders and when we will pay them are subject to risks and uncertainties and are based on certain estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, the actual amount of any additional liquidating distributions we pay to stockholders may be more or less than we estimate and the liquidating distributions may be paid later than we predict. There are many factors that may affect the amount of liquidating distributions we will ultimately pay to our stockholders. If we underestimate our existing obligations and liabilities or the amount of taxes, transaction fees and expenses relating to the liquidation and dissolution, or if unanticipated or contingent liabilities arise, the amount of liquidating distributions ultimately paid to our stockholders could be less than estimated. Moreover, the liquidation value will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to individual assets in our portfolio and the management of those assets, in response to the real estate and finance markets, based on the actual liquidation timing and the amount of net proceeds received from the disposition of the remaining assets and due to other factors. Given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by our stockholders. While we have considered the impact from COVID-19 in our net assets in liquidation presented on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets as of December 31, 2020, the extent to which our business may be affected by COVID-19 depends on future developments with respect to the continued spread and treatment of the virus, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures. Any long-term impact of this situation, even after an economic rebound, remains unclear. See Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Market Outlook — Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets — COVID-19 Pandemic and Portfolio Outlook” for a discussion of the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on our business and our liquidation. We can give no assurance regarding the timing of asset dispositions in connection with the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, the sale prices we will receive for our assets, and the amount or timing of liquidating distributions to be received by our stockholders.
Real Estate Portfolio
Real Estate Investments
We made investments in core properties. We diversified our portfolio by investment size, investment type, investment risk and geographic region. As of December 31, 2020, our remaining portfolio of real estate properties was composed of four office properties and an office building that is part of an office campus.

We have a stable tenant base and we have tried to diversify our tenant base in order to limit exposure to any one tenant or industry. As of December 31, 2020, our portfolio of real estate properties was 73% occupied. Three tenants leasing space in our portfolio of real estate properties represented more than 10% of our total annualized base rent as of December 31, 2020. See Item 2, “Properties — Concentration of Credit Risks.”

The liquidation value of our real estate portfolio as of December 31, 2020 was $698.5 million.
Financing Objectives
We financed the majority of our real estate investments with a combination of the proceeds we received from our initial public offering and debt. We used debt financing to increase the amount available for investment and to increase overall investment yields to us and our stockholders. We have also used debt financing to pay for capital improvements or repairs to properties; to refinance existing indebtedness; to pay distributions; to provide working capital and for other liquidity needs.

Table of Contents
As of December 31, 2020, we had $240.5 million of variable rate debt outstanding. As of December 31, 2020, the weighted-average interest rate of our variable debt was 1.7%. The interest rate represents the actual interest rate in effect as of December 31, 2020, using interest rate indices as of December 31, 2020, where applicable.
The following is a schedule of maturities, including principal amortization payments, for all of our notes payable outstanding as of December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

20225,175 
202390,175 
2024— 
Thereafter— 
$240,520 

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.
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. We did not exceed this limitation on borrowings during any quarter of 2020. As of December 31, 2020, our borrowings and other liabilities were approximately 37% of both the cost (before deducting depreciation and other noncash reserves) and book value (before deducting depreciation) of our tangible assets, respectively.
Economic Dependency
We are dependent on our advisor for certain services that are essential to us, including the management of the daily operations of our real estate investment portfolio; the disposition of real estate investments; the execution of the Plan of Liquidation; and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that our advisor is unable to provide any of these services, we will be required to obtain such services from other sources.
Competitive Market Factors
We face competition from various entities for prospective tenants and to retain our current tenants, including other REITs, pension funds, insurance companies, investment funds and companies, partnerships and developers. Many of these entities have substantially greater financial resources than we do and may be able to accept more risk than we can prudently manage, including risks with respect to the creditworthiness of a tenant. As a result of their greater resources, those entities may have more flexibility than we do in their ability to offer rental concessions to attract and retain tenants. This could put pressure on our ability to maintain or raise rents and could adversely affect our ability to attract or retain tenants. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic caused many tenants to re-evaluate their space needs, resulting in a significant increase in sublease space available in the office market from tenants wanting to unload un-needed space. We face competition from these tenants, who may be more willing to offer significant discounts to prospective subtenants. As a result, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and ability to successfully implement the Plan of Liquidation may be adversely affected.
We also face competition from many of the types of entities referenced above regarding the disposition of properties. These entities may possess properties in similar locations and/or of the same property types as ours and may be attempting to dispose of these properties at the same time we are attempting to dispose of some of our properties, providing potential purchasers with a larger number of properties from which to choose and potentially decreasing the sales price for such properties. Additionally, these entities may be willing to accept a lower return on their individual investments, which could further reduce the sales price of such properties. Further, as a result of the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, real estate transaction volume has decreased with fewer buyers seeking to acquire commercial real estate properties.
This competition could decrease the sales proceeds we receive for properties that we sell, assuming we are able to sell such properties, which could adversely affect our cash flows, the overall return for our stockholders and the amount and timing of liquidation distributions our stockholders receive.

Table of Contents
Although we believe that we are well-positioned to compete effectively in each facet of our business, there is enormous competition in our market sector and there can be no assurance that we will compete effectively or that we will not encounter increased competition in the future that could limit our ability to conduct our business effectively and successfully implement the Plan of Liquidation.
Compliance with Federal, State and Local Environmental Law
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous real property owner or operator may be liable for the cost of removing or remediating hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. These costs could be substantial. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Environmental laws also may impose liens on properties or restrictions on the manner in which properties may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures or prevent us from entering into leases with prospective tenants that may be impacted by such laws. Environmental laws provide for sanctions for noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability for the release of and exposure to hazardous substances, including asbestos-containing materials and lead-based paint. Third parties may seek recovery from real property owners or operators for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances and governments may seek recovery for natural resource damage. The cost of defending against claims of environmental liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury, property damage or natural resource damage claims could reduce our cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
All of our properties were subject to Phase I environmental assessments prior to the time they were acquired. Some of our properties are subject to potential environmental liabilities arising primarily from historic activities at or in the vicinity of the properties. Based on our environmental diligence and assessments of our properties and our purchase of pollution and remediation legal liability insurance with respect to some of our properties, we do not believe that environmental conditions at our properties are likely to have a material adverse effect on our operations.
Industry Segments
We invested in core real estate properties and real estate-related investments with the goal of acquiring a portfolio of income-producing investments. Our real estate properties exhibit similar long-term financial performance and have similar economic characteristics to each other. Accordingly, we aggregated our investments in real estate properties into one reportable business segment.
Human Capital
We have no paid employees. The employees of our advisor and its affiliates provide management, disposition, advisory and certain administrative services for us.
Principal Executive Office
Our principal executive offices are located at 800 Newport Center Drive, Suite 700, Newport Beach, CA 92660. Our telephone number, general facsimile number and website address are (949) 417-6500, (949) 417-6501 and www.kbsreitii.com, respectively.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following are some of the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results, including those related to our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face but do represent those risks and uncertainties that we believe are material to us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also harm our business.

Risks Related to the Plan of Liquidation
We may not be able to pay liquidating distributions to our stockholders at the times and in the amounts we currently expect.
On March 11, 2021, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $2.07 based on our net assets in liquidation, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of December 31, 2020. For a description of the methodologies and assumptions used in the determination of the estimated value per share, see Part II, Item 5, “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Market Information” in this Annual Report. Based on this estimated value per share, we currently estimate that if we are able to successfully implement the Plan of Liquidation, our net proceeds from liquidation and, therefore, the amount of cash that our stockholders would receive for each share of our common stock that they then hold, would range between approximately $1.91 to $2.24 per share. We note that pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, we previously paid the Initial Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.75 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2020, the Second Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.25 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2020 and the Third Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.40 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 24, 2020.
In accordance with the Plan of Liquidation, our objectives are to pursue an orderly liquidation of our company by selling all of our remaining assets, paying our debts and our known liabilities, providing for the payment of unknown or contingent liabilities, distributing the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders and winding up our operations and dissolving our company. We expect to continue to pay liquidating distribution payments to our stockholders through the completion of our liquidation process and to pay the final liquidating distribution after we sell all of our assets, pay all of our known liabilities and provide for unknown liabilities. We anticipate paying substantially all of our liquidating distributions from the net proceeds from liquidation within 24 months after stockholder approval of the Plan of Liquidation, which occurred on March 5, 2020. However, our expectations about the amount of liquidating distributions that we will pay and when we will pay them are based on certain estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, the actual amount of liquidating distributions we pay to our stockholders may be more or less than we estimate and the liquidating distributions may be paid later than we predict. We do not expect to pay regular monthly distributions during the liquidation process. Given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by stockholders. Compliance with the 24-month requirement could also require us to distribute unsold assets to a “liquidating trust” with potentially unfavorable tax consequences for our stockholders or terminate our status as a REIT.
If any of the parties to our future sale agreements default thereunder, or if these sales do not otherwise close, our liquidating distributions may be delayed or reduced.
As part of our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, we will seek to enter into binding sale agreements for each of our properties. The consummation of the potential sales for which we will enter into sale agreements in the future will be subject to satisfaction of closing conditions. If any of the transactions contemplated by our future sale agreements do not close because of a buyer default, failure of a closing condition or for any other reason, we will need to locate a new buyer for the properties, which we may be unable to do promptly or at prices or on terms that are as favorable as the original sale agreement, which risks are heightened as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19. We will also incur additional costs involved in locating a new buyer and negotiating a new sale agreement for these properties. These additional costs are not included in our projections. In the event that we incur these additional costs, our liquidating distributions paid to our stockholders would be delayed or reduced.

If we are unable to find buyers for some or all of our properties at our expected sales prices, our liquidating distributions may be delayed or reduced.
We will market our remaining real estate properties for sale over the coming months. There can be no assurance that any of our properties will sell for their projected sales prices, which risks are heightened as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19.
In calculating the updated range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation as of March 11, 2021, we assumed that we will be able to find buyers for all of our properties at amounts based on our estimated range of market values for each property. However, we may have overestimated the sales prices that we will ultimately be able to obtain for these assets. For example, in order to find buyers in a timely manner, we may be required to lower our asking price below the low end of our current estimate of the property’s market value. In addition, as a result of the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, real estate transaction volume has decreased with fewer buyers seeking to acquire commercial real estate properties. As a result, we have delayed the sale timing for certain of our properties and during the year ended December 31, 2020, we reduced the estimated liquidation value of our real estate portfolio by $90.2 million due to the changes in leasing projections across our portfolio resulting in lower projected cash flow and projected sales prices caused by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. If we are not able to find buyers for these assets in a timely manner or if we have overestimated the sales prices we will receive, our liquidating distributions paid to our stockholders would be delayed or reduced. Furthermore, the updated range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation is based upon our estimates and assumptions as of March 11, 2021, but real estate market values are constantly changing and fluctuate with changes in interest rates, supply and demand dynamics, occupancy rates, rental rates, the availability of suitable buyers, the perceived quality and dependability of cash flows from properties and a number of other factors, both local and national. In addition, higher than anticipated transactional fees and expenses, environmental liabilities of which we are unaware or other unknown liabilities, if any, may adversely impact the net liquidation proceeds from those assets.
No assurance can be given as to the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders will ultimately receive. For more information on the calculation of our updated range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation, see Part II, Item 5, “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities – Market Information” in this Annual Report.
If we experience significant lease terminations and/or tenant defaults during the liquidation process or if our cash flow during the liquidation process is otherwise less than we expect, our liquidating distributions may be delayed or reduced.
In calculating our updated range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation as of March 11, 2021, we assumed that we would not experience significant lease terminations not currently known to us and that we would not experience any significant unknown tenant defaults during the liquidation process that were not subsequently cured. Any currently known lease expirations and non-renewals of tenant leases were considered in calculating our updated range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation. Significant unknown lease terminations and/or tenant defaults during the liquidation process would adversely affect the resale value of the properties, which would reduce our range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation as of March 11, 2021. To the extent that we receive less rental income than we expect during the liquidation process, our liquidating distributions will be reduced. We may also decide in the event of a tenant default to restructure the lease, which could require us to substantially reduce the rent payable to us under the lease, or make other modifications that are unfavorable to us.
If our liquidation costs or unpaid liabilities are greater than we expect, our liquidating distributions may be delayed or reduced.
Before paying the final liquidating distribution, we will need to pay or arrange for the payment of all of our transaction costs in the liquidation, all other costs and all valid claims of our creditors. Our board of directors may also decide to acquire one or more insurance policies covering unknown or contingent claims against us, for which we would pay a premium that has not yet been determined. Our board of directors may also decide to establish a reserve fund to pay these contingent claims. The amounts of the various transaction costs in the liquidation are not yet final, so we have used estimates of these costs in calculating the amounts of our updated range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation as of March 11, 2021. To the extent that we have underestimated these costs in calculating our projections, our actual net proceeds from liquidation per share may be lower than the low end of our range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation per share. In addition, if the claims of our creditors are greater than we have anticipated or we decide to acquire one or more insurance policies covering unknown or contingent claims against us, our liquidating distributions may be delayed or reduced. Further, if we establish a reserve fund, payment of liquidating distributions to our stockholders may be delayed or reduced.

Our estimated value per share and estimated range of liquidating distributions as of March 11, 2021 may not reflect the value that stockholders will receive for their investment upon our liquidation pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation. Our estimated value per share and estimated range of liquidating distributions do not take into account how future developments subsequent to the valuation date related to individual assets, the financial or real estate markets, the actual liquidation timing or other events may increase or decrease our net assets in liquidation.
On March 11, 2021, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $2.07 based on our net assets in liquidation, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of December 31, 2020. Net assets in liquidation represents the remaining estimated liquidation value available to stockholders upon liquidation. We are providing this estimated value per share to assist broker-dealers that participated in our now-terminated initial public offering in meeting their customer account statement reporting obligations under Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) Rule 2231.
The estimated value per share was based upon the recommendation and valuation prepared by our advisor. The conflicts committee reviewed the valuation report prepared by our advisor, which included an estimated liquidation value for each of our real estate properties owned as of December 31, 2020 and the estimated liquidation value for our other assets and our liabilities as of December 31, 2020, in each case as determined by our advisor. In light of the valuation report and other factors considered by the conflicts committee and the conflicts committee’s own extensive knowledge of our assets and liabilities, the conflicts committee: (i) concluded that the estimated range of liquidating distributions per share of $1.91 to $2.24, with an approximate mid-range value of $2.07 per share, each as determined and recommended by our advisor, and which approximate mid-range value was based on our advisor’s estimated liquidation value for each of our real estate properties owned as of December 31, 2020 and our advisor’s estimated liquidation value for our other assets and our liabilities as of December 31, 2020, was reasonable and (ii) recommended to our board of directors that it adopt $2.07 as the estimated value per share of our common stock, which estimated value per share is based on those factors discussed in (i) above. The board of directors unanimously agreed to accept the recommendation of the conflicts committee and approved $2.07 as the estimated value per share of our common stock, which determination is ultimately and solely the responsibility of the board of directors.
The methodologies and assumptions used to determine the estimated liquidation value of our assets and liabilities are described under Part II, Item 5, “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Market Information”, and in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements. As with any valuation methodology, the methodologies used are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete. Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated value per share, and this difference could be significant. Moreover, we did not obtain appraisals in connection with the determination of the estimated value per share.
Our expectations about the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation and the amount of any additional liquidating distributions that we pay to our stockholders and when we will pay them are subject to risks and uncertainties and are based on certain estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect. There are many factors that may affect the amount of liquidating distributions we will ultimately pay to our stockholders. If we underestimate our existing obligations and liabilities or the amount of taxes, transaction fees and expenses relating to the liquidation and dissolution, or if unanticipated or contingent liabilities arise, the amount of liquidating distributions ultimately paid to our stockholders could be less than estimated. Moreover, the liquidation value will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to individual assets in our portfolio and the management of those assets, in response to the real estate and finance markets, based on the actual liquidation timing and the amount of net proceeds received from the disposition of the remaining assets and due to other factors. Given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by stockholders. See below “—The COVID-19 pandemic or any future pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of infectious disease could have material and adverse effects on our and our tenants’ business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, our liquidation and the markets and communities in which we and our tenants operate.” Our estimated value per share and estimated range of liquidating distributions do not take into account how future developments subsequent to the valuation date related to individual assets, the financial or real estate markets, the actual liquidation timing or other events may increase or decrease our net assets in liquidation.

No assurance can be given that any additional liquidating distributions we pay to our stockholders will equal or exceed the estimated value per share or the range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation as of March 11, 2021. Accordingly, with respect to the estimated value per share, we can give no assurance:
of the amount or timing of liquidating distributions we will ultimately be able to pay our stockholders;
that a stockholder would be able to resell his or her shares at the estimated value per share;
that an independent third-party appraiser or third-party valuation firm would agree with the estimated value per share; or
that the methodology used to determine the estimated value per share would be acceptable to FINRA or for compliance with ERISA reporting requirements.
Pursuing the Plan of Liquidation may cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT, which would dramatically lower the amount of our liquidating distributions.
For so long as we qualify as a REIT and distribute all of our REIT taxable income, we generally are not subject to federal income tax. Although our board of directors does not presently intend to terminate our REIT status prior to paying the final liquidating distribution to our stockholders and our dissolution, our board of directors may take actions pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation that would result in such a loss of REIT status. Upon payment of the final liquidating distribution and our dissolution, our existence and our REIT status will terminate. However, there is a risk that our actions during the liquidation process may cause us to fail to meet one or more of the requirements that must be met in order to qualify as a REIT prior to completion of the Plan of Liquidation. For example, to qualify as a REIT, generally at least 75% of our gross income in each taxable year must come from real estate sources and generally at least 95% of our gross income in each taxable year must come from real estate sources and certain other sources that are itemized in the REIT tax laws, mainly interest and dividends. We may encounter difficulties satisfying these requirements during the liquidation process. In addition, in connection with that process, we may recognize ordinary income in excess of the cash received. The REIT rules require us to pay out a large portion of our ordinary income in the form of a dividend to our stockholders. However, to the extent that we recognize ordinary income without any cash available for distribution, and if we were unable to borrow to fund the required dividend or find another way to meet the REIT distribution requirements, we may cease to qualify as a REIT. Although we expect to comply with the requirements necessary to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, if we are unable to do so, we will, among other things (unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions):
not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to stockholders in computing our taxable income;
be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income, including recognized gains, at regular corporate rates;
be subject to increased state and local taxes; and
be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the taxable year in which we lose our qualification and for the four following taxable years.
As a result of these consequences, our failure to qualify as a REIT could substantially reduce the amount of liquidating distributions we pay to our stockholders.
The sale of properties may cause us to incur penalty losses.
So long as we continue to qualify as a REIT, any net gain from “prohibited transactions” will be subject to a 100% tax. “Prohibited transactions” are sales of property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business. The prohibited transactions tax is intended to prevent a REIT from retaining any profit from the sales of properties held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”) provides for a “safe harbor” which, if all its conditions are met, would protect a REIT’s property sales from being considered prohibited transactions. Whether property is held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business is a highly factual determination. We believe that all of our properties are held for investment and the production of rental income, and that none of the sales of our properties will constitute a prohibited transaction. We do not believe that the sales of our properties pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation should be subject to the prohibited transactions tax. However, due to the anticipated sales volume and other factors, the contemplated sales may not qualify for the protective safe harbor. There can, however, be no assurances that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) will not successfully challenge the characterization of properties we hold for purposes of applying the prohibited transaction tax.

The U.S. federal income tax treatment of distributions to stockholders may vary based on whether such distributions are made (1) prior to the Plan of Liquidation or (2) under the Plan of Liquidation.
Prior to the adoption of the Plan of Liquidation to the extent distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits (i) do not exceed a stockholder’s adjusted basis in our stock, such distributions will not be taxable to a stockholder, but rather a stockholder’s adjusted basis in our stock will be reduced; and, (ii) exceed a stockholder’s adjusted basis in our stock, such distributions will be included in income as long-term capital gain if the stockholder has held its shares for more than one year and otherwise as short-term capital gain.
In general, upon approval of the Plan of Liquidation, distributions to stockholders under the Plan of Liquidation, including a stockholder’s pro rata share of the fair market value of any assets that are transferred to a liquidating trust, should not be taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes until the aggregate amount of liquidating distributions to a stockholder exceeds such stockholder’s adjusted tax basis in our stock, and then should be taxable to such stockholder as capital gain (assuming such stockholder held our stock as a capital asset). To the extent the aggregate amount of liquidating distributions to a stockholder is less than such stockholder’s adjusted tax basis in our stock, such stockholder should recognize a capital loss (assuming such stockholder held our stock as a capital asset) in the year the final distribution is received. The transfer of our assets to a liquidating trust is a taxable event to our stockholders notwithstanding that the stockholders may not currently receive a distribution of cash or any other assets with which to satisfy the resulting tax liability.
Distributing beneficial interests in a liquidating trust may trigger tax consequences to our stockholders.
The REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code generally require that each year we distribute as a dividend to our stockholders 90% of our REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gain). Liquidating distributions we pay pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation will qualify for the dividends paid deduction, provided that they are paid within 24 months of March 5, 2020, the date our stockholders approved the Plan of Liquidation. Conditions may arise which cause us not to be able to liquidate within such 24-month period. For instance, it may not be possible to sell our properties at acceptable prices during such period. In such event, rather than retain our properties and risk losing our status as a REIT, we may elect to transfer our remaining assets and liabilities to a liquidating trust in order to meet the 24-month requirement. Such a transfer would be treated as a distribution of our remaining assets to our stockholders, followed by a contribution of the assets to the liquidating trust. As a result, a stockholder would recognize gain to the extent such stockholder’s share of the cash and the fair market value of any assets received by the liquidating trust was greater than the stockholder’s basis in the stock, notwithstanding that the stockholder would not contemporaneously receive a distribution of cash or any other assets with which to satisfy the resulting tax liability. To the extent such stockholder’s share of the cash and the fair market value of any assets received by the liquidating trust is less than the stockholder’s basis in the stock, such loss is expected to be recognizable at the time of the transfer to the liquidating trust, but not before such time. In addition, it is possible that the fair market value of the assets received by the liquidating trust, as estimated for purposes of determining the extent of the stockholder’s gain at the time the beneficial interests in the liquidating trust are distributed to the stockholders, will exceed the cash or fair market value of property received by the liquidating trust on a sale of the assets. In this case, the stockholder would recognize a loss in a taxable year subsequent to the taxable year in which the gain was recognized, which loss may be limited under the Internal Revenue Code.
Our entity value may be adversely affected by adoption of the Plan of Liquidation.
Although prior to the acceptance for record of our articles of dissolution (the “Articles of Dissolution”) by the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland, our board of directors may terminate the Plan of Liquidation for any reason, subject to and contingent upon the approval of such termination by our stockholders, we are committed to winding-up our operations. This may adversely affect the value that a potential acquirer might place on us. It may also preclude other beneficial courses of action not yet identified by our board of directors.
There can be no assurance that a planned liquidation pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation will maximize stockholder value to a greater extent at this time than would otherwise occur through other alternatives considered by our board of directors and the Special Committee.
Our stockholders will no longer participate in any future earnings or benefit from any increases in the value of our properties once such properties are sold. Although our board of directors and the Special Committee each believes that a planned liquidation is in our best interest and the best interest of our stockholders, it is possible that pursuing one or more of the other alternatives considered by our board of directors and the Special Committee would maximize stockholder value to a greater extent at this time. In that case, we will be foregoing those opportunities by implementing the Plan of Liquidation.

In certain circumstances, the board of directors may terminate, amend, modify or delay implementation of the Plan of Liquidation even though it is approved by our stockholders.
Our board of directors has adopted and approved the Plan of Liquidation. Nevertheless, prior to the acceptance for record of the Articles of Dissolution by the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland (the “SDAT”), the board of directors may terminate the Plan of Liquidation for any reason, subject to and contingent upon the approval of such termination by our stockholders. Notwithstanding approval of the Plan of Liquidation by our stockholders, our board of directors, or, if a liquidating trust is established, trustees of the liquidating trust, may make certain modifications or amendments to the Plan of Liquidation without further action by or approval of our stockholders to the extent permitted under law. Although our board of directors has no present intention to pursue any alternative to the Plan of Liquidation, our board of directors may conclude that terminating the Plan of Liquidation is in our best interest and the best interest of our stockholders. If our board of directors elects to pursue any alternative to the Plan of Liquidation, our stockholders would have to approve the termination of the Plan of Liquidation and may not receive the consideration currently estimated to be available for distribution to our stockholders pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation.
Our board of directors has the authority to sell our assets under terms less favorable than those assumed for the purpose of estimating our updated range of net proceeds from liquidation.
Our board of directors has the authority to sell any and all of our properties on such terms and to such parties as the board of directors determines in its sole discretion. Notably, our stockholders will have no subsequent opportunity to vote on such matters and will, therefore, have no right to approve or disapprove the terms of such sales.
Our stockholders could, in some circumstances, be held liable for amounts they received from us in connection with our dissolution.
If we fail to create an adequate contingency reserve for payment of our expenses and liabilities, or if we transfer our assets to a liquidating trust and the contingency reserve and the assets held by the liquidating trust are less than the amount ultimately found payable in respect of expenses and liabilities, each of our stockholders could be held liable for the payment to our creditors of such stockholder’s pro rata portion of the excess, limited to the amounts previously received by the stockholder in distributions from us or the liquidating trust, as applicable. If a court holds at any time that we failed to make adequate provision for our expenses and liabilities or if the amount ultimately required to be paid in respect of such liabilities exceeds the amount available from the contingency reserve and the assets of the liquidating trust, our creditors could seek an injunction to prevent us from paying distributions under the Plan of Liquidation on the grounds that the amounts to be distributed are needed to provide for the payment of such expenses and liabilities. Any such action could delay or substantially diminish the amount of liquidating distributions to be paid to our stockholders or holders of beneficial interests of any liquidating trust.
We will continue to incur the expenses of complying with public company reporting requirements.
Until our liquidation and dissolution are complete, we have an obligation to continue to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, even if compliance with these reporting requirements is economically burdensome. In order to curtail expenses, we may, after filing our Articles of Dissolution, seek relief from the SEC from certain reporting requirements under the Exchange Act. We anticipate that, if we seek such relief and it is granted, we would continue to file current reports on Form 8-K to disclose material events relating to our liquidation and dissolution, along with any other reports that the SEC might require, but would discontinue filing annual and quarterly reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q. However, we may not seek such relief or the SEC may not grant any such relief. To the extent that we delay filing the Articles of Dissolution or if we do not obtain reporting relief, we would be obligated to continue complying with the applicable reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. The expenses we incur in complying with the applicable reporting requirements would reduce the amount of liquidating distributions we pay to our stockholders.
Approval of the Plan of Liquidation may lead to stockholder litigation, which could result in substantial costs and distract our management.
Extraordinary corporate actions by a company, such as our Plan of Liquidation, sometimes lead to lawsuits being filed against that company. We may become involved in this type of litigation in connection with the Plan of Liquidation. As of March 8, 2021, no such lawsuits relative to the Plan of Liquidation were pending or, to our knowledge, threatened. However, if such a lawsuit is filed against us, the litigation could be expensive and divert management’s attention from implementing the Plan of Liquidation.

Our directors and officers and our advisor and its affiliates may have conflicts of interest that may influence their actions during the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation and these conflicts may cause them to manage our liquidation in a manner not solely in the best interest of our stockholders.
Some of our directors and officers and our advisor and its affiliates have interests in our liquidation that are different from your interests as a stockholder. Some of the conflicts of interest presented by the liquidation are summarized below.
All of our executive officers, including Messrs. Schreiber and Waldvogel and Ms. Yamane, are officers of our advisor and/or one or more of our advisor’s affiliates and are compensated by those entities, in part, for their service rendered to us. We currently do not pay any direct compensation to our executive officers. Mr. Schreiber is also one of our directors.
Pursuant to the terms of the advisory agreement, our advisor is expected to be entitled to disposition fees in connection with the sale of our properties. From March 5, 2020 through the completion of our liquidation, these disposition fees are estimated to be approximately $8.6 million, depending upon the prices we receive for the sale of our properties.
Our advisor earns asset management fees from us and receives reimbursement of certain of its operating costs. Our advisor will continue to earn such fees and receive reimbursements as long as we continue to own any properties, and our advisor will receive reimbursements for expenses until our liquidation and dissolution are complete. Based on the properties we owned as of March 5, 2020 and the current projected disposition dates for the remaining properties in our portfolio, we project that we may pay our advisor an aggregate of approximately $10.6 million for asset management fees and reimbursement of certain of its operating expenses from March 5, 2020 through our completion of the liquidation process, although this estimate may vary significantly based on the timing of property sales.
Our advisor owns a total of 20,000 shares of our common stock, for which we estimate it will receive liquidating distributions of between approximately $66,200 and $72,800 in connection with our liquidation, inclusive of the three liquidating distributions paid in 2020.
Not including the 20,000 shares owned by our advisor referenced above, one of our directors owns an aggregate of 2,680 shares of our common stock, for which we estimate he will receive aggregate liquidating distributions of between approximately $8,871 and $9,755 in connection with our liquidation, inclusive of the three liquidating distributions paid in 2020.
Because of the above conflicts of interest, our directors, our officers and our advisor may be motivated to make decisions or take actions based on factors other than the best interest of our stockholders throughout the liquidation process.
Our officers, our affiliated director, our advisor and the real estate professionals assembled by our advisor will face competing demands on their time which may adversely affect their management of our liquidation.
Our advisor is also the external advisor to KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc. (“KBS REIT III”) and KBS Growth & Income REIT, Inc. (“KBS Growth & Income REIT”), each of which is a KBS-sponsored non-traded REIT. Other KBS-advised investors are also advised by affiliates of our advisor, and an affiliate of our advisor serves as the U.S. asset manager for Prime US REIT, a Singapore real estate investment trust. These other programs and investors rely on many of the same real estate professionals as we do, including Mr. Schreiber. As a result of their obligations to these other KBS-sponsored programs and/or KBS-advised investors, Mr. Schreiber, our officers and our advisor’s other real estate professionals face conflicts of interest in allocating their time among us, KBS REIT III, KBS Growth & Income REIT, Prime US REIT, other KBS-advised investors and our advisor, as well as other business activities in which they are involved.

Risks Related to an Investment in Us
Because no public trading market for our shares currently exists and because our share redemption program limits redemptions to Special Redemptions, our stockholders may not realize the cash value of their shares until we complete our liquidation pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation.
There is no public market for our shares and our stockholders may not sell their shares unless the buyer meets the applicable suitability and minimum purchase standards. Any sale must comply with applicable state and federal securities laws. Our charter prohibits the ownership of more than 9.8% of our stock by any person, unless exempted by our board of directors, which may inhibit large investors from purchasing our shares.
On May 15, 2014, our board of directors amended and restated our share redemption program to provide only for redemptions sought in connection with a Special Redemption. Such Special Redemptions are subject to an annual dollar limitation. On December 24, 2020, our board of directors approved an annual dollar limitation of $10.0 million in the aggregate for the calendar year 2021 (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.
We do not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future. Thus, except with respect to Special Redemptions, stockholders will not be able to sell any of their shares back to us pursuant to our share redemption program. In its sole discretion, our board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate our share redemption program upon ten business days’ notice, and we may increase or decrease the funding available for the redemption of shares under the program upon ten business days’ notice to stockholders.
Therefore, it will be difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares promptly or at all. If a stockholder is able to sell his or her shares, it would likely be at a substantial discount to our updated estimated range of liquidating distributions as of March 11, 2021. It is also likely that our shares would not be accepted as the primary collateral for a loan.
We face significant competition for tenants and in the disposition of our assets, which could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
We face competition from various entities for prospective tenants and to retain our current tenants, including other REITs, pension funds, insurance companies, investment funds and companies, partnerships and developers. Many of these entities have substantially greater financial resources than we do and may be able to accept more risk than we can prudently manage, including risks with respect to the creditworthiness of a tenant. As a result of their greater resources, those entities may have more flexibility than we do in their ability to offer rental concessions to attract and retain tenants. This could put pressure on our ability to maintain or raise rents and could adversely affect our ability to attract or retain tenants. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic caused many tenants to re-evaluate their space needs, resulting in a significant increase in sublease space available in the office market from tenants wanting to unload un-needed space. We face competition from these tenants, who may be more willing to offer significant discounts to prospective subtenants. As a result, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to successfully implement our Plan of Liquidation may be adversely affected.
We also face competition from many of the types of entities referenced above regarding the disposition of properties. These entities may possess properties in similar locations and/or of the same property types as ours and may be attempting to dispose of these properties at the same time we are attempting to dispose of some of our properties, providing potential purchasers with a larger number of properties from which to choose and potentially decreasing the sales price for such properties. Additionally, these entities may be willing to accept a lower return on their individual investments, which could further reduce the sales price of such properties. Further, as a result of the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, real estate transaction volume has decreased with fewer buyers seeking to acquire commercial real estate properties.
This competition could decrease the sales proceeds we receive for properties that we sell, assuming we are able to sell such properties, which could adversely affect our cash flows, the overall return for our stockholders and the amount and timing of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.

Disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions could adversely affect our ability to successfully implement the Plan of Liquidation and reduce the amount and timing of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
Disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions (including financial market disruptions related to COVID-19) could adversely affect the values of our investments. Any disruption to the debt and capital markets could result in fewer buyers seeking to acquire commercial properties and possible increases in capitalization rates and lower property values. Furthermore, any decline in economic conditions could negatively impact commercial real estate fundamentals and result in lower occupancy, lower rental rates and declining values in our real estate portfolio, which could have the following negative effects on us:
the values of our investments in commercial properties could decrease below the amounts paid for such investments; and/or
revenues from our properties could decrease due to fewer tenants and/or lower rental rates, decreasing the value of our properties.
All of these factors could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
We relied on debt financing to finance our real estate properties and 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. We also may be unable to obtain additional debt financing on attractive terms or at all. If we are not able to refinance our existing indebtedness on attractive terms at the various maturity dates, we may be forced to dispose of some of our assets at prices lower than we estimated for our March 11, 2021 range of liquidating distributions. Volatile market conditions and a challenging global macro-economic environment may interfere with our ability to successfully implement the Plan of Liquidation and may reduce the amount and timing of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
The COVID-19 pandemic or any future pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of infectious disease could have material and adverse effects on our and our tenants’ business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, our liquidation and the markets and communities in which we and our tenants operate.
Since initially being reported in December 2019, COVID-19 has spread around the world, including to every state in the United States. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted global economic activity and caused significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The global impact of the pandemic continues to evolve and many countries, states and localities, including states and localities in the United States, have reacted by imposing measures to help control the spread of the virus, including instituting quarantines, “shelter-in-place” and “stay-at-home” orders, travel restrictions, restrictions on businesses and school closures. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic is negatively impacting almost every industry, including the U.S. office real estate industry and the industries of our tenants, directly or indirectly. As of December 31, 2020, tenants in the mining and oil and gas extraction industry represented approximately 18% of our base rent. Tenants in this sector have been adversely impacted by the reduced demand for oil as a result of the slowdown in economic activity resulting from the pandemic spread of COVID-19 and the collapse in oil prices. The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered a period of global economic slowdown. The fluidity of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to preclude any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact the pandemic may have on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidation.

The COVID-19 pandemic or a future pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of infectious disease affecting states or regions in which we or our tenants operate could have material and adverse effects on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our liquidation due to, among other factors:
health or other government authorities requiring the closure of offices or other businesses or instituting quarantines of personnel as the result of, or in order to avoid, exposure to a contagious disease;
businesses evolving to make work-from-home environments, such as employee telecommuting, flexible work schedules, open workplaces or teleconferencing, increasingly common, which could over time erode the overall demand for office space and, in turn, place downward pressure on occupancy, rental rates and property valuations;
disruption in supply and delivery chains;
a general decline in business activity and demand for real estate, especially office properties;
reduced economic activity, general economic decline or recession, which may impact our tenants’ businesses, financial condition and liquidity and may cause tenants to be unable to make rent payments to us timely, or at all, or to otherwise seek modifications of lease obligations;
difficulty accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all, and a severe disruption and instability in the global financial markets or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions, which may affect our access to capital necessary to fund business operations or address maturing liabilities on a timely basis and may result in fewer buyers seeking to acquire commercial real estate; and
the potential negative impact on the health of our advisor’s personnel, particularly if a significant number of our advisor’s employees are impacted, which would result in a deterioration in our ability to ensure business continuity during a disruption.
The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or a similar health epidemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of potential impacts on our business, operations and liquidation, our tenants’ businesses and operations or the global economy as a whole. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we did not experience significant impact to rental income collections from the COVID-19 pandemic. Rent collections for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 were approximately 99%. Many of our tenants have suffered reductions in revenue. As of December 31, 2020, we had entered into lease amendments related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, granting $0.2 million of rent deferrals for the period from March 2020 through December 31, 2020 and granting $0.2 million in rental abatements during this period. From March 2020 through December 31, 2020, eight tenants were granted rental deferrals or rental abatements as a result of the pandemic, of which three tenants have begun to pay rent in accordance with their lease agreements subsequent to the deferral or abatement period. Four of the eight tenants continue to have rent abated through March 2021. Depending upon the duration of the pandemic, the various measures imposed to help control the spread of the virus and the corresponding economic slowdown, these tenants or additional tenants may seek rent deferrals or abatements in future periods or become unable to pay their rent. We will continue to evaluate any additional short-term rent relief requests from tenants on an individual basis. If tenants default on their rent and vacate, the ability to re-lease this space is likely to be more difficult if the economic slowdown continues and any long term impact of this situation, even after an economic rebound, remains unclear. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, we have not seen a material impact on our rent collections. However, current collections and rent relief requests to-date may not be indicative of collections or requests in any future period. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the rental income from our properties for the first quarter of 2021 and thereafter cannot be determined at present.
Although we did not experience significant disruptions in rental income, during the year ended December 31, 2020, we reduced the estimated liquidation value of our real estate portfolio by $90.2 million due to changes in leasing projections across our portfolio resulting in lower projected cash flow and projected sales prices caused by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. See Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Changes in Net Assets in Liquidation” for a discussion of the change in liquidation value of real estate properties. We may need to recognize additional decreases in the values of our real estate properties to the extent leasing projections and projected sales prices continue to decline at our properties.
As of December 31, 2020, we had $48.4 million of revolving debt available for immediate future disbursement under our portfolio loan facility, subject to certain conditions set forth in the loan agreements. Significant reductions in rental revenue in the future may limit our ability to draw on our portfolio loan facility due to covenants described in our loan agreements.

Given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by our stockholders. While the spread of COVID-19 may eventually be contained or mitigated, there is no guarantee that a future outbreak or any other widespread epidemics will not occur, or that the global economy will recover, either of which could materially harm our business and our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation.
Because we depend upon our advisor and its affiliates to conduct our operations, any adverse changes in the financial health of our advisor or its affiliates or our relationship with them could hinder our performance and reduce the return on our stockholders’ investment.
We depend on our advisor to manage our operations and our portfolio of assets and to implement the Plan of Liquidation. Our advisor depends upon the fees and other compensation that it receives from us, KBS REIT III and KBS Growth & Income REIT and any future KBS-sponsored programs that it advises in connection with the purchase, management and sale of assets to conduct its operations. Any adverse changes to our relationship with, or the financial condition of, our advisor and its affiliates could hinder their ability to successfully manage our operations and our portfolio of investments and implement the Plan of Liquidation.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, we sold two office properties and four office buildings that were part of an office campus. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we sold two office properties. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we sold three office buildings that were part of an eight-building office campus and received the repayment on one real estate loan receivable. As a result, our general and administrative expenses as a percentage of our cash flow from operations has increased and will continue to increase as we sell additional assets.
Our real estate properties generate cash flow in the form of rental revenues and tenant reimbursements. As a result of our dispositions, our cash flow from operations has decreased. Our general and administrative expenses are not directly related to the size of our portfolio and thus will not decrease proportionately. As a result, our general and administrative expenses as a percentage of cash flow from operations has increased and will continue to increase as we sell additional assets.
The loss of or the inability to retain or obtain key real estate and debt finance professionals at our advisor could delay or hinder implementation of our investment management strategy and the Plan of Liquidation, which could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
Our success depends to a significant degree upon the contributions of Charles J. Schreiber, Jr. and the team of real estate and debt finance professionals at our advisor. Neither we nor our advisor nor its affiliates have employment agreements with these individuals and they may not remain associated with us, our advisor or its affiliates. If any of these persons were to cease their association with us, our advisor or its affiliates, we may be unable to find suitable replacements and our operating results could suffer as a result. We do not maintain key person life insurance on any person. We believe that our future success depends, in large part, upon our advisor’s and its affiliates’ ability to attract and retain highly skilled managerial, operational and marketing professionals. Competition for such professionals is intense, and our advisor and its affiliates may be unsuccessful in attracting and retaining such skilled individuals. Further, we have established strategic relationships with firms that have special expertise in certain services or detailed knowledge regarding real properties in certain geographic regions and in the disposition of our assets in such regions. Maintaining such relationships will be important for us to effectively compete with other investors for tenants in such regions. We may be unsuccessful in maintaining such relationships. If we lose or are unable to obtain the services of highly skilled professionals or do not establish or maintain appropriate strategic relationships, our ability to implement our investment management strategy and the Plan of Liquidation could be delayed or hindered, reducing the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.

Our stockholders may be adversely affected by the Indemnification Amendment.
Although we believe that the changes contained in one of the amendments to our charter approved by our stockholders on April 3, 2020 (the “Indemnification Amendment”) will improve our ability to retain and attract qualified directors and officers and will further incentivize our advisor to continue to provide services to us under the advisory agreement throughout the liquidation process, the Indemnification Amendment does increase the risk that we and our stockholders will not be able to recover monetary damages from our directors if they fail to meet the statutory standard of conduct or from our officers if they fail to satisfy their duties under Maryland law. The Indemnification Amendment provides for (i) the expansion of our exculpation and indemnification of our present and former directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law; (ii) the expansion of our obligation to advance defense expenses to a present or former director or officer to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law; and (iii) the elimination of conditions and limits on our ability to exculpate and indemnify our advisor and its affiliates or advance defense expenses to our advisor and its affiliates. The reduced ability to recover from our present and former directors and officers and our advisor and its affiliates and the increased right to indemnification is true not only for their future acts or omissions but also for acts or omissions that occurred prior to the date of the amendment to our charter reflected in the Indemnification Amendment. The Indemnification Amendment also increases the risk that we will incur significant defense costs that would otherwise have to be borne by our present and former directors or officers or our advisor or its affiliates.
We face risks associated with security breaches through cyber-attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our information technology (IT) networks and related systems.
We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusions over the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to systems inside our organization, and other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber-attack or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day-to-day operations. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems, and we have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, there can be no assurance that our security efforts and measures will be effective or that attempted security breaches or disruptions would not be successful or damaging. Even the most well protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases are designed not to be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to entirely mitigate this risk.
A security breach or other significant disruption involving our IT networks and related systems could:
disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems and therefore our operations;
result in misstated financial reports, violations of loan covenants and/or missed reporting deadlines;
result in our inability to properly monitor our compliance with the rules and regulations regarding our qualification as a REIT;
result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of, proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could use to compete against us or which could expose us to damage claims by third-parties for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes;
require significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result;
subject us to claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements; or
damage our reputation among our stockholders.
Any or all of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our ability to successfully implement the Plan of Liquidation and could reduce the amount and timing of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.

Our bylaws designate the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees.
Our bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland shall be the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders with respect to our company, our directors, our officers or our employees (we note we currently have no employees). This choice of forum provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that the stockholder believes is favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees, which may discourage meritorious claims from being asserted against us and our directors, officers and employees. Alternatively, if a court were to find this provision of our bylaws inapplicable to, or unenforceable in respect of, one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. We adopted this provision because we believe it makes it less likely that we will be forced to incur the expense of defending duplicative actions in multiple forums and less likely that plaintiffs’ attorneys will be able to employ such litigation to coerce us into otherwise unjustified settlements, and we believe the risk of a court declining to enforce this provision is remote, as the General Assembly of Maryland has specifically amended the Maryland General Corporation Law to authorize the adoption of such provisions.

Risks Related to Conflicts of Interest
Our advisor and its affiliates, including all of our executive officers, our affiliated director and other key real estate and debt finance professionals, face conflicts of interest caused by their compensation arrangements with us and with other KBS-sponsored programs, which could result in actions that are not in the best interests of our stockholders.
All of our executive officers, our affiliated director 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. Our advisor and its affiliates receive substantial fees from us. These fees could influence our advisor’s advice to us as well as the judgment of its affiliates. Among other matters, these compensation arrangements could affect their judgment with respect to:
the continuation, renewal or enforcement of our agreements with our advisor and its affiliates, including the advisory agreement; and
sales of properties and other investments, which entitle our advisor to disposition fees.
In addition, the fees our advisor receives in connection with the management of our assets are based on the cost of the investment, and not based on the quality of the investment or the quality of the services rendered to us.
Our advisor and its affiliates face conflicts of interest relating to the leasing and disposition of properties due to their relationship with other KBS-sponsored programs and/or KBS-advised investors, and such conflicts may not be resolved in our favor, which could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
We and other KBS-sponsored programs and KBS-advised investors rely on our sponsor, KBS Holdings LLC, and other key real estate and debt finance professionals at our advisor, including Mr. Schreiber, to supervise the property management and leasing of properties. If the KBS team of real estate professionals directs creditworthy prospective tenants to properties owned by another KBS-sponsored program or KBS-advised investor when it could direct such tenants to our properties, our tenant base may have more inherent risk and our properties’ occupancy may be lower than might otherwise be the case.
In addition, we and other KBS-sponsored programs and KBS-advised investors rely on our sponsor and other key real estate professionals at our advisor to sell our properties. These KBS-sponsored programs and KBS-advised investors may possess properties in similar locations and/or of the same property types as ours and may be attempting to sell these properties at the same time we are attempting to sell some of our properties. If our advisor directs potential purchasers to properties owned by another KBS-sponsored program or KBS-advised investor when it could direct such purchasers to our properties, we may be unable to sell some or all of our properties at the time or at the price we otherwise would, which could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.

Our sponsor, our officers, our advisor and the real estate, debt finance, management and accounting professionals assembled by our advisor face competing demands on their time and this may cause our operations to suffer and delay the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation.
We rely on our sponsor, our officers, our advisor and the real estate, debt finance, management and accounting professionals that our advisor retains, including Messrs. Schreiber and Jeffrey K. Waldvogel and Ms. Stacie K. Yamane, to provide services to us for the day-to-day operation of our business. KBS REIT III and KBS Growth & Income REIT are also advised by KBS Capital Advisors, and KBS Capital Advisors may serve as the advisor to future KBS-sponsored programs and KBS-advised investors. Further, our officers and directors are also officers and/or the affiliated director of other public KBS-sponsored programs. Messrs. Schreiber and Waldvogel and Ms. Yamane are also executive officers of KBS REIT III and KBS Growth & Income REIT. Messrs. Schreiber and Waldvogel and Ms. Yamane are executive officers of KBS Realty Advisors LLC (“KBS Realty Advisors”) and its affiliates, the advisors of the private KBS-sponsored programs and the KBS-advised investors and the U.S. asset manager for Prime US REIT. Further, Mr. Schreiber is Chairman of the Board and a director of the external manager of Prime US REIT.
As a result of their interests in other KBS-sponsored programs, their obligations to KBS-advised investors and the fact that they engage in and will continue to engage in other business activities on behalf of themselves and others, Messrs. Schreiber and Waldvogel and Ms. Yamane face conflicts of interest in allocating their time among us, KBS REIT III, KBS Growth & Income REIT, KBS Capital Advisors, KBS Realty Advisors, other KBS-sponsored programs and/or other KBS-advised investors, as well as other business activities in which they are involved. In addition, KBS Capital Advisors and KBS Realty Advisors and their affiliates share many of the same key real estate, management and accounting professionals. During times of intense activity in other programs and ventures, these individuals may devote less time and fewer resources to our business than are necessary or appropriate to manage our business. Furthermore, some or all of these individuals may become employees of another KBS–sponsored program in an internalization transaction. If these events occur, the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment may decline. See “ - Risks Related to the Plan of Liquidation.”
All of our executive officers, our affiliated director and the key real estate and debt finance professionals assembled by our advisor face conflicts of interest related to their positions and/or interests in our advisor and its affiliates, which could hinder our ability to implement our business strategy and the Plan of Liquidation.
All of our executive officers, our affiliated director and the key real estate and debt finance professionals assembled by our advisor are also executive officers, directors, managers, key professionals and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor and/or other KBS-affiliated entities. Through KBS-affiliated entities, some of these persons also serve as the investment advisors to KBS-advised investors and, through KBS Capital Advisors and KBS Realty Advisors, these persons serve as the advisor to KBS REIT III, KBS Growth & Income REIT and other KBS-sponsored programs. In addition, KBS Realty Advisors serves as the U.S. asset manager for Prime US REIT. As a result, they owe fiduciary duties to each of these entities, their stockholders, members and limited partners and these investors, which fiduciary duties may from time to time conflict with the fiduciary duties that they owe to us and our stockholders. Their loyalties to these other entities and investors could result in action or inaction that is detrimental to our business, which could harm the implementation of our business strategy and the Plan of Liquidation. Further, Mr. Schreiber and existing and future KBS-sponsored programs and KBS-advised investors generally are not and will not be prohibited from engaging, directly or indirectly, in any business or from possessing interests in any other business venture or ventures, including businesses and ventures involved in the acquisition, development, ownership, leasing or sale of real estate investments. If we do not successfully implement our business strategy and the Plan of Liquidation, the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment may be reduced.

Our board of directors’ loyalties to KBS REIT III, KBS Growth & Income REIT, Prime US REIT and possibly to future KBS-sponsored programs could influence its judgment, resulting in actions that may not be in our stockholders’ best interest or that result in a disproportionate benefit to another KBS-sponsored program at our expense.
All of our directors are also directors of KBS REIT III and our affiliated director is also an affiliated director of KBS Growth & Income REIT and an affiliated director of the external manager of Prime US REIT. The loyalties of our directors serving on the boards of directors of KBS REIT III, KBS Growth & Income REIT and the external manager of Prime US REIT, or possibly on the boards of directors of future KBS-sponsored programs, may influence the judgment of our board of directors when considering issues for us that also may affect other KBS-sponsored and advised programs, such as the following:
We could enter into transactions with other KBS-sponsored programs, such as property sales or financing arrangements. Such transactions might entitle our advisor or its affiliates to increased fees and other compensation from either or both parties to the transaction. For example, property sales to other KBS-sponsored programs might entitle our advisor or its affiliates to acquisition fees in connection with its services to the purchaser in addition to disposition and other fees that we might pay to our advisor in connection with such transaction. Decisions of our board, the conflicts committee or the Special Committee regarding the terms of those transactions may be influenced by our board’s or the conflicts committee’s loyalties to such other KBS-sponsored programs.
A decision of our board, the conflicts committee or the Special Committee regarding the timing of property sales could be influenced by concerns that the sales would compete with those of other KBS-sponsored programs.
Like us, KBS REIT III compensates each independent director with an annual retainer of $135,000, as well as compensation for attending meetings as follows:
each member of the audit committee and conflicts committee is paid $10,000 annually for service on such committees (except that the chair of each of the audit committee and conflicts committee is paid $20,000 annually for service as the chair of such committees);
after the tenth board of directors meeting of each calendar year, each independent director is paid (i) $2,500 for each in-person board of directors meeting attended for the remainder of the calendar year and (ii) $2,000 for each teleconference board of directors meeting attended for the remainder of the calendar year;
after the tenth audit committee meeting of each calendar year, each member of the audit committee is paid (i) $2,500 for each in-person audit committee meeting attended for the remainder of the calendar year and (ii) $2,000 for each teleconference audit committee meeting attended for the remainder of the calendar year (except that the audit committee chair is paid $3,000 for each in-person and teleconference audit committee meeting attended after the tenth audit committee meeting of each calendar year, for the remainder of each calendar year); and
after the tenth conflicts committee meeting of each calendar year, each member of the conflicts committee is paid (i) $2,500 for each in-person conflicts committee meeting attended for the remainder of the calendar year and (ii) $2,000 for each teleconference conflicts committee meeting attended for the remainder of the calendar year (except that the conflicts committee chair is paid $3,000 for each in-person and teleconference conflicts committee meeting attended after the tenth conflicts committee meeting of each calendar year, for the remainder of each calendar year).
In addition, we pay independent directors for attending other committee meetings as follows: each independent director is paid $2,000 in cash for each in-person and teleconference committee meeting attended (except that the committee chair is paid $3,000 for each in-person and teleconference committee meeting attended).
Like us, KBS REIT III reimburses directors for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance at board of directors meetings and committee meetings.

Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure
Ownership limitations may restrict change of control or business combination opportunities in which our stockholders might receive a premium for their shares.
In order for us to qualify as a REIT for each taxable year, no more than 50% in value of our outstanding capital stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals during the last half of any calendar year. “Individuals” for this purpose include natural persons, and some entities such as private foundations. To preserve our REIT qualification, our charter generally prohibits any person from directly or indirectly owning more than 9.8% in value of our capital stock. This ownership limitation could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a takeover or other transaction including an extraordinary transaction (such as a merger, tender offer or sale of all or substantially all of our assets), in which holders of our common stock might receive a premium for their shares over our March 11, 2021 estimated range of liquidating distributions or which stockholders might believe to be otherwise in their best interests.
Our charter permits our board of directors to issue stock with terms that may subordinate the rights of our common stockholders or discourage a third party from acquiring us in a manner that could result in a premium price to our stockholders.
Our board of directors may classify or reclassify any unissued common stock or preferred stock and establish the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption of any such stock. Thus, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of preferred stock with priority as to distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation over the rights of the holders of our common stock. Such preferred stock could also have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us, including an extraordinary transaction (such as a merger, tender offer or sale of all or substantially all of our assets) that might provide a premium price to holders of our common stock.
Our stockholders will have limited control over changes in our policies and operations and the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, which increases the uncertainty and risks our stockholders face.
Our board of directors determines our major policies, including our policies regarding financing, debt capitalization, REIT qualification, distributions and liquidation pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation. Our board of directors may generally amend or revise these and other policies without a vote of the stockholders. Under Maryland General Corporation Law and our charter, our stockholders have a right to vote only on limited matters. Prior to the acceptance for record of the Articles of Dissolution by the SDAT, the board of directors may terminate the Plan of Liquidation for any reason, subject to and contingent upon the approval of such termination by our stockholders. Notwithstanding approval of the Plan of Liquidation by our stockholders, the board of directors, or, if a liquidating trust is established, trustees of the liquidating trust, may make certain modifications or amendments to the Plan of Liquidation without further action by or approval of our stockholders to the extent permitted under law. Although the board of directors has no present intention to pursue any alternative to the Plan of Liquidation, the board of directors may conclude that terminating the Plan of Liquidation is in our best interest and the best interest of our stockholders. If the board of directors elects to pursue any alternative to the Plan of Liquidation, our stockholders would have to approve the termination of the Plan of Liquidation and may not receive the consideration currently estimated to be available for distribution to our stockholders pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation. Our board’s broad discretion in setting policies and our stockholders’ inability to exert control over those policies increases the uncertainty and risks our stockholders face.
Our share redemption program only provides for Special Redemptions. We do not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future.
Our share redemption program only provides for Special Redemptions. Such Special Redemptions are subject to an annual dollar limitation. On December 24, 2020, our board of directors approved an annual dollar limitation of $10.0 million in the aggregate for the calendar year 2021 (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. Based on historical redemption activity, we believe the $10.0 million redemption limitation for the calendar year 2021 will be sufficient for Special Redemptions. During each calendar year, the annual dollar limitation for the share redemption program will be reviewed and may be adjusted from time to time.
We do not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future. Except with respect to Special Redemptions, stockholders will not be able to sell any of their shares back to us pursuant to our share redemption program. In its sole discretion, our board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate our share redemption program upon ten business days’ notice, and we may increase or decrease the funding available for the redemption of shares under the program upon ten business days’ notice to stockholders.

Payment of fees to KBS Capital Advisors and its affiliates reduces the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders will receive and their overall return on investment.
KBS Capital Advisors and its affiliates performed services for us in connection with the selection and acquisition or origination of our investments, and continue to perform services for us in connection with the management, leasing and disposition of our properties and the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation. We pay them substantial fees for these services, which results in immediate dilution of the value of our stockholders’ investment in us.
Disposition fees and asset management fees reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders will receive and their overall return on investment. For information relating to fees potentially payable to our affiliates in connection with the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, see “ – Risks Related to the Plan of Liquidation.”
If we are unable to fund our capital needs during our liquidation, the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment will be reduced.
When tenants do not renew their leases or otherwise vacate their space, we will often need to expend substantial funds for improvements to the vacated space in order to attract replacement tenants. Even when tenants do renew their leases we may agree to make improvements to their space as part of our negotiations. If we need additional capital in the future to improve or maintain our properties and prepare them for disposition or for any other reason, we may have to obtain funding from sources other than our cash flow from operations, such as borrowings and asset sales. If we cannot procure additional funding for capital improvements, our investments may generate lower cash flow, which would reduce the resale value of the properties and would reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
Although we are not currently afforded the protection of the Maryland General Corporation Law relating to deterring or defending hostile takeovers, our board of directors could opt into these provisions of Maryland law in the future, which may discourage others from trying to acquire control of us and may prevent our stockholders from receiving a premium price for their stock in connection with a business combination.
Under Maryland law, “business combinations” between a Maryland corporation and certain interested stockholders or affiliates of interested stockholders are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. These business combinations include a merger, consolidation, share exchange or, in circumstances specified in the statute, an asset transfer or issuance or reclassification of equity securities. Also under Maryland law, control shares of a Maryland corporation acquired in a control share acquisition have no voting rights except to the extent approved by a vote of two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter. Shares owned by the acquirer, an officer of the corporation or an employee of the corporation who is also a director of the corporation are excluded from the vote on whether to accord voting rights to the control shares. Should our board opt into these provisions of Maryland law, it may discourage others from trying to acquire control of us and increase the difficulty of consummating any offer. Similarly, provisions of Title 3, Subtitle 8 of the Maryland General Corporation Law could provide similar anti-takeover protection.

General Risks Related to Investments in Real Estate
Economic, market and regulatory changes that impact the real estate market generally may decrease the value of our investments, weaken our operating results and reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
Our operating results and the performance of our properties are subject to the risks typically associated with real estate, any of which could decrease the value of our investments and could weaken our operating results, including:
downturns in national, regional and local economic conditions (including market disruptions related to COVID-19);
competition from other office buildings;
adverse local conditions, such as oversupply or reduction in demand for office buildings and changes in real estate zoning laws that may reduce the desirability of real estate in an area;
vacancies, changes in market rental rates and the need to periodically repair, renovate and re-let space;
changes in interest rates and the availability of permanent mortgage financing, which may render the sale of a property difficult or unattractive;
changes in tax (including real and personal property tax), real estate, environmental and zoning laws;
natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes and floods;
acts of war or terrorism, including the consequences of terrorist attacks, such as those that occurred on September 11, 2001;
the potential for uninsured or underinsured property losses; and
periods of high interest rates and tight money supply.
Any of the above factors, or a combination thereof, could result in a decrease in our cash flow from operations and a decrease in the value of our investments, which would have an adverse effect on our operations and reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
If our assets fail to perform as expected during the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment will be reduced.
Since breaking escrow in June 2008, we made acquisitions of real estate and real estate-related assets based on an underwriting analysis with respect to each asset and how the asset fits into our portfolio. If our assets do not perform as expected during the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment will be reduced.
As of February 28, 2021, we owned four office properties and an office building that is part of an office campus. The amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment will be impacted by the performance and sales of these investments.
Union Bank Plaza represented approximately 35.1% of our total annualized base rent as of February 28, 2021. Granite Tower represented approximately 28.4% of our total annualized base rent as of February 28, 2021. Fountainhead Plaza represented approximately 19.5% of our total annualized base rent as of February 28, 2021. Willow Oaks Corporate Center represented approximately 17.0% of our total annualized base rent as of February 28, 2021. The lease for the single tenant that occupied Corporate Technology Centre - 300 Holger expired on October 31, 2018 and as of February 28, 2021, this property is 0% leased. We can give no assurance that we will be successful in our strategy to re-lease Corporate Technology Centre - 300 Holger. If we are not successful in our strategy to re-lease this building, our operating results will suffer and the resale value of the property will be diminished. The amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment will be impacted by the performance and sales of these investments.
The geographic concentration of our portfolio makes us particularly susceptible to adverse economic developments in the Los Angeles, Denver, Tempe, Fairfax, and San Jose real estate markets, respectively. 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 our operating results and reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.

Because of the concentration of our assets in four geographic areas, any adverse economic, real estate or business conditions in these areas could affect our operating results and reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
As of February 28, 2021, our real estate properties were located in California, Colorado, Virginia and Arizona. As a result, the geographic concentration of our portfolio makes it particularly susceptible to adverse economic developments in the California, Colorado, Virginia and Arizona 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 our operating results and reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
Properties that have significant vacancies could be difficult to sell, which could diminish the return on these properties and adversely affect our cash flow and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
A property may incur vacancies either by the expiration and non-renewal of tenant leases or the continued default of tenants under their leases. If vacancies continue for a long period of time, we may suffer reduced revenues. In addition, the resale value of the property could be diminished because the market value of a particular property depends principally upon the value of the cash flow generated by the leases associated with that property. Such a reduction in the resale value of a property could also reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
We depend on tenants for our revenue generated by our real estate investments and the resale value of a property depends principally upon the value of the cash flow generated by the leases associated with that property. Accordingly, our ability to successfully implement the Plan of Liquidation is partially dependent upon the success and economic viability of our tenants and our ability to retain and attract tenants. Non-renewals, terminations or lease defaults could reduce our net income and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
The success of our real estate investments materially depends upon the financial stability of the tenants leasing the properties we own. The inability of a single major tenant or a significant number of smaller tenants to meet their rental obligations would significantly lower our net income. A non-renewal after the expiration of a lease term, termination or default by a tenant on its lease payments to us would cause us to lose the revenue associated with such lease and require us to find an alternative source of revenue to meet mortgage payments and prevent a foreclosure, if the property is subject to a mortgage. In the event of a tenant default or bankruptcy, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlord of a property and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment and re-leasing the property. Tenants may have the right to terminate their leases upon the occurrence of certain customary events of default and, in other circumstances, may not renew their leases or, because of market conditions, may only be able to renew their leases on terms that are less favorable to us than the terms of their initial leases. When tenants exercise early termination rights, our cash flow and earnings will be adversely affected to the extent that we are unable to generate an equivalent amount of net rental income by leasing the vacated space to new third party tenants. Further, some of our properties may be outfitted to suit the particular needs of the tenants. We may have difficulty replacing the tenants of these properties if the outfitted space limits the types of businesses that could lease that space without major renovation. If a tenant does not renew a lease or terminates or defaults on a lease, we may be unable to lease the property for the rent previously received or sell the property for the amount used in calculating our March 11, 2021 range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation, which will reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
The bankruptcy or insolvency of our tenants or delays by our tenants in making rental payments could seriously harm our operating results and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
Any bankruptcy filings by or relating to any of our tenants could bar us from collecting pre-bankruptcy debts from that tenant, unless we receive an order permitting us to do so from the bankruptcy court. A tenant bankruptcy could delay our efforts to collect past due balances under the relevant leases, and could ultimately preclude full collection of these sums. If a lease is rejected by a tenant in bankruptcy, we would have only a general unsecured claim for damages. Any unsecured claim we hold against a bankrupt entity may be paid only to the extent that funds are available and only in the same percentage as is paid to all other holders of unsecured claims. We may recover substantially less than the full value of any unsecured claims, which would harm our operating results and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.

Our inability to sell a property at the time and on the terms we want could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
Many factors that are beyond our control affect the real estate market and could affect our ability to sell properties for the price, on the terms or within the time frame that we desire. These factors include general economic conditions, the availability of financing, interest rates and other factors, including supply and demand. Further, before we can sell a property on the terms we want, it may be necessary to expend funds to correct defects or to make improvements. However, we can give no assurance that we will have the funds available to correct such defects or to make such improvements. We may be unable to sell our properties at a profit. Our inability to sell properties at the time and on the terms we want could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
Costs imposed pursuant to laws and governmental regulations may reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
Real property and the operations conducted on real property are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to protection of the environment and human health. We could be subject to liability in the form of fines, penalties or damages for noncompliance with these laws and regulations. These laws and regulations generally govern wastewater discharges, air emissions, the operation and removal of underground and above-ground storage tanks, the use, storage, treatment, transportation and disposal of solid and hazardous materials, the remediation of contamination associated with the release or disposal of solid and hazardous materials, the presence of toxic building materials and other health and safety-related concerns.
Some of these laws and regulations may impose joint and several liability on the tenants, owners or operators of real property for the costs to investigate or remediate contaminated properties, regardless of fault, whether the contamination occurred prior to purchase, or whether the acts causing the contamination were legal. Our tenants’ operations, the condition of properties at the time we buy them, operations in the vicinity of our properties, such as the presence of underground storage tanks, or activities of unrelated third parties may affect our properties.
The presence of hazardous substances, or the failure to properly manage or remediate these substances, may hinder our ability to sell, rent or pledge such property as collateral for future borrowings. Any material expenditures, fines, penalties or damages we must pay will reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
The costs of defending against claims of environmental liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury or other damage claims could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous real property owner or operator may be liable for the cost of removing or remediating hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. These costs could be substantial. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Environmental laws also may impose liens on property or restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures or prevent us from entering into leases with prospective tenants that may be impacted by such laws. Environmental laws provide for sanctions for noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability for the release of and exposure to hazardous substances, including asbestos-containing materials and lead-based paint. Third parties may seek recovery from real property owners or operators for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances and governments may seek recovery for natural resource damage. The costs of defending against claims of environmental liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury, property damage or natural resource damage claims could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive. All of our properties were subject to Phase I environmental assessments prior to the time they were acquired.
Costs associated with complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act may decrease the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
Our properties may be subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended (the “Disabilities Act”). Under the Disabilities Act, all places of public accommodation are required to comply with federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. The Disabilities Act has separate compliance requirements for “public accommodations” and “commercial facilities” that generally require that buildings and services be made accessible and available to people with disabilities. The Disabilities Act’s requirements could require removal of access barriers and could result in the imposition of injunctive relief, monetary penalties or, in some cases, an award of damages. Any funds used for Disabilities Act compliance will reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.

Uninsured losses relating to real property or excessively expensive premiums for insurance coverage could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
There are types of losses, generally catastrophic in nature, such as losses due to wars, acts of terrorism, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, pollution or environmental matters, that are uninsurable or not economically insurable, or may be insured subject to limitations, such as large deductibles or co-payments. Insurance policies relating to such events may not be available at reasonable costs, if at all. In such instances, we may be required to provide other financial support, either through financial assurances or self-insurance, to cover potential losses. We may not have adequate coverage for such losses. If any of our properties incurs a casualty loss that is not fully insured, the value of our assets will be reduced by any such uninsured loss, which will reduce the value of our stockholders’ investment. In addition, other than any working capital reserve or other reserves we may establish, we have limited sources of funding to repair or reconstruct any uninsured property. Also, to the extent we must pay unexpectedly large amounts for insurance, we could suffer reduced earnings that would reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
Terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war may affect the markets in which we operate, which could delay or hinder our ability to successfully implement our Plan of Liquidation and reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
Terrorist attacks or armed conflicts may directly impact the value of our properties through damage, destruction, loss or increased security costs. We have invested in major metropolitan markets. Insurance risks associated with potential acts of terrorism could sharply increase the premiums we pay for coverage against property and casualty claims or we may not be able to obtain insurance against the risk of terrorism because it may not be available or may not be available on terms that are economically feasible. The terrorism insurance that we obtain may not be sufficient to cover loss for damages to our properties as a result of terrorist attacks. The inability to obtain sufficient terrorism insurance or any terrorism insurance at all could limit our refinancing options as some mortgage lenders have begun to insist that specific coverage against terrorism be purchased by commercial owners as a condition of providing loans. If these events occur, the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment may decline.

Risks Associated with Debt Financing
We have obtained mortgage indebtedness, lines of credit and other borrowings, which increases our risk of loss due to potential foreclosure.
We have obtained lines of credit and long-term financing secured by our properties and other assets. We acquired many of our real properties by financing a portion of the price of the properties and mortgaging or pledging some or all of the properties purchased as security for that debt. We may also incur additional debt on properties that we already own in order to fund property improvements and other capital expenditures, and for other purposes. In addition, we may borrow as necessary or advisable to ensure that we maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, including borrowings to satisfy the REIT requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income to our stockholders (computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and excluding net capital gain). However, we can give our stockholders no assurance that we will be able to obtain such borrowings on satisfactory terms or at all.
If there is a shortfall between the cash flow generated by a mortgaged property and the cash flow needed to service mortgage debt on that property, then our operations may suffer and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment may decline. In addition, incurring mortgage debt increases the risk of loss of a property since defaults on indebtedness secured by a property may result in lenders initiating foreclosure actions. In that case, we could lose the property securing the loan that is in default, reducing the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive. For tax purposes, a foreclosure of any of our properties would be treated as a sale of the property for a purchase price equal to the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage. If the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage exceeds our tax basis in the property, we would recognize taxable income on foreclosure even though we would not necessarily receive any cash proceeds. We have given and may give full or partial guarantees to lenders of mortgage or other debt on behalf of the entities that own our properties. When we give a guaranty on behalf of an entity that owns one of our properties, we will be responsible to the lender for satisfaction of all or a part of the debt or other amounts related to the debt if it is not paid by such entity. If any mortgages contain cross-collateralization or cross-default provisions, a default on a mortgage secured by a single property could affect mortgages secured by other properties.

High mortgage rates or changes in underwriting standards may make it difficult for us to refinance properties, which could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive during our liquidation.
We may be unable to refinance part or all of our mortgage debt when it becomes due or we may be unable to refinance mortgage debt on favorable terms. If interest rates are higher when we refinance properties, our income could be reduced. We may be unable to refinance or may only be able to partly refinance properties if underwriting standards, including loan to value ratios and yield requirements, among other requirements, are more strict than when we originally financed the properties. If any of these events occurs, our operations may suffer and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment may decline.
Lenders may require us to enter into restrictive covenants, which could cause our operations to suffer and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment may decline.
When providing financing, a lender may impose restrictions on us that affect our distribution and operating policies and our ability to incur additional debt. Loan agreements into which we enter may contain covenants that limit our ability to further mortgage a property or that prohibit us from discontinuing insurance coverage or replacing our advisor. These or other limitations could cause our operations to suffer and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment may decline.
Increases in interest rates and the future discontinuation of LIBOR could increase the amount of our interest payments and could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
As of February 28, 2021, we had a total of $240.5 million of variable rate notes payable, and we may incur additional indebtedness in the future. Interest we pay reduces our cash flows. Since we have incurred and may continue to incur variable rate debt, increases in interest rates raise our interest costs, which reduces our cash flows. In addition, if we need to repay existing debt during periods of rising interest rates, we could be required to sell one or more of our properties at times or on terms which may not permit realization of the maximum return on such investments. Increases in interest rates may cause our operations to suffer and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment may decline.
We currently pay interest under our variable rate debt at an interest rate that is determined based on a US Dollar London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). In July 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”), which regulates LIBOR, announced that it will stop encouraging or requiring banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after December 31, 2021. On March 5, 2021, the FCA announced that all LIBOR settings will either cease to be provided by any administrator or no longer be representative (i) immediately after December 31, 2021, in the case of the 1-week and 2-month US dollar settings; and (ii) immediately after June 30, 2023, in the case of the remaining US dollar settings. The tenors that were extended to June 30, 2023 are more widely used and are the tenors used in our LIBOR-based debt.
The Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”), a steering committee comprised of U.S. financial market participants, published model LIBOR replacement language for use in bilateral and syndicated loan facilities. ARRC selected the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the replacement to LIBOR. SOFR is a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash in the overnight U.S. treasury repo market and is a rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. To the extent we have not liquidated and our notes payable have not been fully repaid, the transition from LIBOR to SOFR could result in higher all-in interest costs and could reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
We have broad authority to incur debt and high debt levels could cause our operations to suffer and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment may decline.
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 this limit if the majority of the conflicts committee approves each borrowing in excess of this 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 December 31, 2020, our borrowings and other liabilities were approximately 37% of both the cost (before deducting depreciation and other noncash reserves) and book value (before deducting depreciation) of our tangible assets, respectively. High debt levels would cause us to incur higher interest charges and higher debt service payments and may also be accompanied by restrictive covenants, which could cause our operations to suffer and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment may decline.

Federal Income Tax Risks
In addition to the following risk factors, please see “ — Risks Related to the Plan of Liquidation” for information relating to tax risks associated with the Plan of Liquidation.
Failure to qualify as a REIT would reduce our net earnings available for distribution.
Our qualification as a REIT will depend upon our ability to meet requirements regarding our organization and ownership, distributions of our income, the nature and diversification of our income and assets and other tests imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for any taxable year after electing REIT status, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at corporate rates (a maximum rate of 35% applied through 2017, with a 21% rate beginning for 2018). In addition, we would generally be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year in which we lost our REIT status. Losing our REIT status would reduce our net earnings available for distribution to stockholders because of the additional tax liability. In addition, distributions to stockholders would no longer qualify for the dividends-paid deduction and we would no longer be required to pay distributions. If this occurs, we might be required to borrow funds or liquidate some investments in order to pay the applicable tax.
Failure to qualify as a REIT would subject us to U.S. federal income tax, which would reduce the cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
We believe that we have operated and will continue to operate in a manner that will allow us to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2008. However, the U.S. federal income tax laws governing REITs are extremely complex, and interpretations of the U.S. federal income tax laws governing qualification as a REIT are limited. Qualifying as a REIT requires us to meet various tests regarding the nature of our assets and our income, the ownership of our outstanding stock, and the amount of our distributions on an ongoing basis. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that we will be successful in operating so we can remain qualified as a REIT. While we intend to continue to operate so that we will qualify as a REIT, given the highly complex nature of the rules governing REITs, the ongoing importance of factual determinations, and the possibility of future changes in our circumstances, no assurance can be given that we will so qualify for any particular year. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any calendar year and we do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, we would be required to pay U.S. federal income tax on our taxable income. We might need to borrow money or sell assets to pay that tax. Our payment of income tax would decrease the amount of our income available for distribution to our stockholders. Furthermore, if we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT and we do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, we no longer would be required to distribute substantially all of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders. Unless our failure to qualify as a REIT were excused under federal tax laws, we would be disqualified from taxation as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost.
Even if we qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we may be subject to federal, state, local or other tax liabilities that reduce our cash flow and our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.
Even if we qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we may be subject to some federal, state and local taxes on our income or property. For example:
In order to qualify as a REIT, we must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders (which is determined without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital gain). To the extent that we satisfy the distribution requirement but distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, we will be subject to federal corporate income tax on the undistributed income.
We will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which distributions we pay in any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of our ordinary income, 95% of our capital gain net income and 100% of our undistributed income from prior years.
If we elect to treat property that we acquire in connection with certain leasehold terminations as “foreclosure property,” we may avoid the 100% tax on the gain from a resale of that property, but the income from the sale or operation of that property may be subject to corporate income tax at the highest applicable rate.
If we sell an asset, other than foreclosure property, that we hold primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business, our gain would be subject to the 100% “prohibited transaction” tax unless such sale were made by one of our taxable REIT subsidiaries or the sale met certain “safe harbor” requirements under the Internal Revenue Code.

REIT distribution requirements could adversely affect our ability to execute our business plan.
We generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, in order for federal corporate income tax not to apply to earnings that we distribute. To the extent that we satisfy this distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, we will be subject to federal corporate income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the actual amount that we pay out to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under federal tax laws. We also may decide to retain net capital gain we earn from the sale or other disposition of our property and pay U.S. federal income tax directly on such income. In that event, our stockholders would be treated as if they earned that income and paid the tax on it directly. However, stockholders that are tax-exempt, such as charities or qualified pension plans, would have no benefit from their deemed payment of such tax liability unless they file U.S. federal income tax returns and thereon seek a refund of such tax. We also will be subject to corporate tax on any undistributed REIT taxable income. We intend to pay distributions to our stockholders to comply with the REIT requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.
From time to time, we may generate taxable income greater than our income for financial reporting purposes, or our taxable income may be greater than our cash flow available for distribution to stockholders (for example, where a borrower defers the payment of interest in cash pursuant to a contractual right or otherwise). If we do not have other funds available in these situations we could be required to borrow funds, sell investments at disadvantageous prices or find another alternative source of funds to pay distributions sufficient to enable us to pay out enough of our taxable income to satisfy the REIT distribution requirements and to avoid corporate income tax and the 4% excise tax in a particular year. These alternatives could increase our costs or reduce our equity. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of maximizing profits.
To maintain our REIT status, we may be forced to forego otherwise attractive opportunities, which may delay or hinder our ability to meet our investment objectives and reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy certain tests on an ongoing basis concerning, among other things, the sources of our income, nature of our assets and the amounts we distribute to our stockholders. We may be required to pay distributions to stockholders at times when it would be more advantageous to reinvest cash in our business or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution. Compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of maximizing profits and reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
If our operating partnership fails to maintain its status as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, its income would be subject to taxation and our REIT status would be terminated.
We intend to maintain the status of our operating partnership as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, if the IRS were to successfully challenge the status of our operating partnership as a partnership, it would be taxable as a corporation. In such event, this would reduce the amount of distributions that our operating partnership could make to us. This would also result in our losing REIT status and becoming subject to a corporate level tax on our own income. This would substantially reduce our cash available to pay distributions and the return on your investment. In addition, if any of the entities through which our operating partnership owns its properties, in whole or in part, loses its characterization as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the underlying entity would become subject to taxation as a corporation, thereby reducing distributions to our operating partnership and jeopardizing our ability to maintain REIT status.
Potential characterization of distributions or gain on sale may be treated as unrelated business taxable income to tax-exempt investors.
If (i) all or a portion of our assets are subject to the rules relating to taxable mortgage pools, (ii) we are a “pension-held REIT,” (iii) a tax-exempt stockholder has incurred debt to purchase or hold our common stock, or (iv) the residual Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit interests, or REMICs, we buy (if any) generate “excess inclusion income,” then a portion of the distributions to and, in the case of a stockholder described in clause (iii), gains realized on the sale of common stock by such tax-exempt stockholder may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as unrelated business taxable income under the Internal Revenue Code.

The tax on prohibited transactions will limit our ability to engage in transactions that would be treated as sales for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
A REIT’s net income from prohibited transactions is subject to a 100% tax. In general, prohibited transactions are sales or other dispositions of assets, other than foreclosure property, deemed held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. We might be subject to this tax if we were to dispose of loans in a manner that was treated as a sale of the loans for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, in order to avoid the prohibited transactions tax, we may choose not to engage in certain sales of loans at the REIT level, even though the sales might otherwise be beneficial to us.
It may be possible to reduce the impact of the prohibited transaction tax by conducting certain activities through taxable REIT subsidiaries. However, to the extent that we engage in such activities through taxable REIT subsidiaries, the income associated with such activities may be subject to full corporate income tax.
Complying with REIT requirements may force us to liquidate otherwise attractive investments.
To qualify as a REIT, we must ensure that at the end of each calendar quarter, at least 75% of the value of our assets consists of cash, cash items, government securities and qualified REIT real estate assets, including certain mortgage loans and residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities. The remainder of our investment in securities (other than government securities and qualified real estate assets) generally cannot include more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer or more than 10% of the total value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer. In addition, in general, no more than 5% of the value of our assets (other than government securities and qualified real estate assets) can consist of the securities of any one issuer, no more than 20% (25% for taxable years before 2018) of the value of our total assets can be represented by securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries and no more than 25% of the value of our total assets can be represented by “non-qualified publicly offered REIT debt instruments.” If we fail to comply with these requirements at the end of any calendar quarter, we must correct the failure within 30 days after the end of the calendar quarter or qualify for certain statutory relief provisions to avoid losing our REIT qualification and suffering adverse tax consequences. As a result, we may be required to liquidate from our portfolio otherwise attractive investments. These actions could have the effect of reducing our income and the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive, which would reduce their overall return on investment.
The ability of our board of directors to revoke our REIT qualification without stockholder approval may subject us to U.S. federal income tax and reduce the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive and their overall return on investment.
Our charter provides that our board of directors may revoke or otherwise terminate our REIT election, without the approval of our stockholders, if it determines that it is no longer in our best interest to continue to qualify as a REIT. While we believe we have qualified and intend to continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT, we may terminate our REIT election if we determine that qualifying as a REIT is no longer in our best interests. If we cease to be a REIT, we would become subject to U.S. federal income tax on our taxable income, which may have adverse consequences on the amount of liquidating distributions our stockholders receive.
Changes recently made to the U.S. tax laws could have a negative impact on our business.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, Pub. L. No. 115-97 (the “Tax Act”) was signed into law. The Tax Act makes significant changes to the U.S. federal income tax rules for taxation of individuals and corporations, generally effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017. In the case of individuals, the tax brackets have been adjusted, the top federal income rate has been reduced to 37%, special rules reduce taxation of certain income earned through pass-through entities and reduce the top effective rate applicable to ordinary dividends from REITs to 29.6% (through a 20% deduction for ordinary REIT dividends received) and various deductions have been eliminated or limited, including limiting the deduction for state and local taxes to $10,000 per year. Most of the changes applicable to individuals are temporary and apply only to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026. The top corporate income tax rate has been reduced to 21%. The Tax Act includes only minor changes to the REIT rules (other than the 20% deduction applicable to individuals for ordinary REIT dividends received).
The Tax Act makes numerous other changes to the tax laws that may affect REITs and investors directly or indirectly. As a result of the changes to U.S. federal tax laws implemented by the Tax Act, our taxable income and the amount of distributions to our stockholders required in order to maintain our REIT status, and our relative tax advantage as a REIT, could change. As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our stockholders annually. In addition, the Tax Act imposes limitations on the deductibility of business interest expense.

Several pieces of legislation intended to address the economic impact of COVID-19 (the “COVID-19 Legislation”) were signed into law, including the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, Pub. L. No. 116-136 (the “CARES Act”), which was signed into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act makes several changes to the U.S. federal income tax rules for taxation of individuals and corporations, including the allowance of net operating loss (“NOL”) carrybacks for certain tax years, the removal of caps on the application of NOLs for certain tax years, the removal of the cap on excess business loss deductions for certain tax years, and an increase in the cap on the deduction of net interest expenses for businesses.
The CARES Act makes numerous other changes to the tax laws that do not affect REITs directly but may affect REITs and investors indirectly. In addition, the novel Coronavirus outbreak remains an evolving situation, and there may be additional legislation enacted which has a material impact on tax laws that impact REITs and investors. Stockholders are urged to consult with their tax advisors with respect to the status of COVID-19 Legislation, including the CARES Act, and any other regulatory or administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on investment.
Dividends payable by REITs do not qualify for the reduced tax rates.
In general, the maximum tax rate for dividends payable to domestic stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates is 20%. Dividends payable by REITs, however, are generally not eligible for this reduced rate; provided under current law, individuals may be able to deduct 20% of income received as ordinary REIT dividends, thus reducing the maximum effective U.S. federal income tax rate on such dividend. In addition, Treasury Regulations impose a minimum holding period for the 20% deduction that was not set forth in the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Treasury Regulations, in order for a REIT dividend with respect to a share of REIT stock to be treated as a qualified REIT dividend, the U.S. stockholder (i) must have held the share for more than 45 days during the 91-day period beginning on the date which is 45 days before the date on which such share becomes ex-dividend with respect to such dividend and (ii) cannot have been under an obligation to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property, e.g., pursuant to a short sale. While this tax treatment does not adversely affect the taxation of REITs or dividends paid by REITs, the more favorable rates applicable to regular corporate dividends could cause investors who are individuals, trusts or estates to perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in stock of non-REIT corporations that pay dividends, which could adversely affect the value of the stock of REITs, including our common stock.
Dividends paid by REITs may be subject to Medicare tax on net investment income.
High-income U.S. individuals, estates, and trusts will be subject to an additional 3.8% tax on net investment income. For these purposes, net investment income includes dividends and gains from sales of stock. In the case of an individual, the tax will be 3.8% of the lesser of the individuals’ net investment income or the excess of the individuals’ modified adjusted gross income over $250,000 in the case of a married individual filing a joint return or a surviving spouse, $125,000 in the case of a married individual filing a separate return, or $200,000 in the case of a single individual. The 20% deduction for qualified REIT dividends is not taken into account for these purposes.
Qualifying as a REIT involves highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex Internal Revenue Code provisions for which only limited judicial and administrative authorities exist. Even a technical or inadvertent violation could jeopardize our REIT qualification. Our continued qualification as a REIT will depend on our satisfaction of certain asset, income, organizational, distribution, stockholder ownership and other requirements on a continuing basis. In addition, our ability to satisfy the requirements to qualify as a REIT depends in part on the actions of third parties over which we have no control or only limited influence, including in cases where we own an equity interest in an entity that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
The taxation of distributions to our stockholders can be complex; however, distributions that we make to our stockholders generally will be taxable as ordinary income, which may reduce your anticipated return from an investment in us.
Distributions that we make to our taxable stockholders to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits (and not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend income) generally will be taxable as ordinary income. However, a portion of our distributions may (i) be designated by us as capital gain dividends generally taxable as long-term capital gain to the extent that they are attributable to net capital gain recognized by us, (ii) be designated by us as qualified dividend income generally to the extent they are attributable to dividends we receive from non-REIT corporations, if any, or (iii) constitute a return of capital generally to the extent that they exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A return of capital distribution is not taxable, but has the effect of reducing the basis of a stockholder’s investment in our common stock.

Table of Contents
Non-U.S. stockholders will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax and may be subject to U.S. federal income tax on distributions received from us and upon the disposition of our shares.
Subject to certain exceptions, distributions received from us will be treated as dividends of ordinary income to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits. Such dividends ordinarily will be subject to U.S. withholding tax at a 30% rate, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty, unless the distributions are treated as “effectively connected” with the conduct by the non-U.S. stockholder of a U.S. trade or business. Pursuant to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980, or FIRPTA, capital gain distributions attributable to sales or exchanges of “U.S. real property interests,” or USRPIs, generally (subject to certain exceptions for “qualified foreign pension funds”, entities all of the interests of which are held by “qualified foreign pension funds” and certain “qualified shareholders”) will be taxed to a non-U.S. stockholder as if such gain were effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business unless FIRPTA provides an exemption. However, a capital gain dividend will not be treated as effectively connected income if (i) the distribution is received with respect to a class of stock that is regularly traded on an established securities market located in the United States and (ii) the non-U.S. stockholder does not own more than 10% of the class of our stock at any time during the one-year period ending on the date the distribution is received. We do not anticipate that our shares will be “regularly traded” on an established securities market for the foreseeable future, and therefore, this exception is not expected to apply.
Gain recognized by a non-U.S. stockholder upon the sale or exchange of our common stock generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxation unless such stock constitutes a USRPI under FIRPTA (subject to specific FIRPTA exemptions for certain non-U.S. stockholders). Our common stock will not constitute a USRPI so long as we are a “domestically-controlled qualified investment entity.” A domestically-controlled qualified investment entity includes a REIT if at all times during a specified testing period, less than 50% in value of such REIT’s stock is held directly or indirectly by non-U.S. stockholders. We believe, but cannot assure you, that we will be a domestically-controlled qualified investment entity.
Even if we do not qualify as a domestically-controlled qualified investment entity at the time a non-U.S. stockholder sells or exchanges our common stock, gain arising from such a sale or exchange would not be subject to U.S. taxation under FIRPTA as a sale of a USRPI if: (a) our common stock is “regularly traded,” as defined by applicable Treasury Regulations, on an established securities market, and (b) such non-U.S. stockholder owned, actually and constructively, 10% or less of our common stock at any time during the five-year period ending on the date of the sale. However, it is not anticipated that our common stock will be “regularly traded” on an established market. We encourage you to consult your tax advisor to determine the tax consequences applicable to you if you are a non-U.S. stockholder.
We may be subject to adverse legislative or regulatory tax changes.
At any time, the U.S. federal income tax laws or regulations governing REITs or the administrative interpretations of those laws or regulations may be amended. We cannot predict when or if any new U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation, or any amendment to any existing U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation, will be adopted, promulgated or become effective and any such law, regulation or interpretation may take effect retroactively. We and our stockholders could be adversely affected by any such change in, or any new, U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation.

Retirement Plan Risks
If the fiduciary of an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA (such as a profit sharing, Section 401(k) or pension plan) or an owner of a retirement arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code (such as an individual retirement account (“IRA”)) fails to meet the fiduciary and other standards under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code as a result of an investment in our stock, the fiduciary could be subject to penalties and other sanctions.
There are special considerations that apply to employee benefit plans subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”) (such as profit sharing, Section 401(k) or pension plans) and other retirement plans or accounts subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code (such as an IRA) or any entity whose assets include such assets that have invested in our shares. Fiduciaries, IRA owners and other benefit plan investors that have invested the assets of such a plan or account in our common stock should satisfy themselves that:
the investment is consistent with their fiduciary and other obligations under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code;
the investment is made in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the plan or IRA, including the plan’s or account’s investment policy;
the investment satisfies the prudence and diversification requirements of Sections 404(a)(1)(B) and 404(a)(1)(C) of ERISA and other applicable provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code;
the investment in our shares, for which no public market currently exists, is consistent with the liquidity needs of the plan or IRA;
the investment will not produce an unacceptable amount of “unrelated business taxable income” for the plan or IRA;
our stockholders will be able to comply with the requirements under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code to value the assets of the plan or IRA annually; and
the investment will not constitute a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.
With respect to the annual valuation requirements described above, we will provide an estimated value per share for our common stock annually. We can make no claim whether such estimated value per share will or will not satisfy the applicable annual valuation requirements under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code. The Department of Labor or the Internal Revenue Service may determine that a plan fiduciary or an IRA custodian is required to take further steps to determine the value of our common stock. In the absence of an appropriate determination of value, a plan fiduciary or an IRA custodian may be subject to damages, penalties or other sanctions. For information regarding our estimated value per share, see Part II, Item 5, “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters, and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Market Information” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Failure to satisfy the fiduciary standards of conduct and other applicable requirements of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code may result in the imposition of civil and criminal penalties and could subject the fiduciary to claims for damages or for equitable remedies, including liability for investment losses. In addition, if an investment in our shares constitutes a prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code, the fiduciary or IRA owner who authorized or directed the investment may be subject to the imposition of excise taxes with respect to the amount invested. In addition, the investment transaction must be undone. In the case of a prohibited transaction involving an IRA owner, the IRA may be disqualified as a tax-exempt account and all of the assets of the IRA may be deemed distributed and subjected to tax. ERISA plan fiduciaries and IRA owners should consult with counsel before making an investment in our common stock.
If our assets are deemed to be plan assets, we and our advisor may be exposed to liabilities under Title I of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code.
In some circumstances where an ERISA plan holds an interest in an entity, the assets of the entity are deemed to be ERISA plan assets unless an exception applies. This is known as the “look-through rule.” Under those circumstances, the obligations and other responsibilities of plan sponsors, plan fiduciaries and plan administrators, and of parties in interest and disqualified persons, under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code, may be applicable, and there may be liability under these and other provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code. We believe that our assets should not be treated as plan assets because the shares should qualify as “publicly-offered securities” that are exempt from the look-through rules under applicable Treasury Regulations. We note, however, that because certain limitations are imposed upon the transferability of shares so that we may qualify as a REIT, and perhaps for other reasons, it is possible that this exemption may not apply. If that is the case, and if we or our advisor are exposed to liability under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code, our performance and results of operations could be adversely affected. Stockholders should consult with their legal and other advisors concerning the impact of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code on their investment and our performance.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND
ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Stockholder Information
As of March 8, 2021, we had approximately 184.1 million shares of common stock outstanding held by a total of approximately 45,000 stockholders. The number of stockholders is based on the records of DST Systems, Inc., which serves as our transfer agent.
Market Information
No public market currently exists for our shares of common stock. In addition, our stockholders may not sell their shares unless the buyer meets the applicable suitability and minimum purchase requirements. Any sale must comply with applicable state and federal securities laws, and our charter prohibits the ownership of more than 9.8% of our stock by a single person, unless exempted by our board of directors. Consequently, there is the risk that our stockholders may not be able to sell their shares at a time or price acceptable to them.
Our stockholders approved the Plan of Liquidation on March 5, 2020 and we are in the process of completing the liquidation of our remaining real estate properties.
On March 11, 2021, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $2.07 based on our net assets in liquidation, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of December 31, 2020. Net assets in liquidation represents the remaining estimated liquidation value available to stockholders upon liquidation. There have been no other material changes between December 31, 2020 and March 11, 2021 that would impact the overall estimated value per share. We are providing this estimated value per share to assist broker-dealers that participated in our now-terminated initial public offering in meeting their customer account statement reporting obligations under FINRA Rule 2231.
The conflicts committee, composed solely of all of our independent directors, is responsible for the oversight of the valuation process used to determine the estimated value per share of our common stock, including the review and approval of the valuation processes and methodologies used to determine our estimated value per share, the consistency of the valuation methodologies with real estate industry standards and practices and the reasonableness of the assumptions used in the valuations. The estimated value per share was based upon the recommendation and valuation prepared by our advisor. The methodologies and assumptions used to determine the estimated liquidation value of our assets and liabilities are described further below, and in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
The conflicts committee reviewed the valuation report prepared by our advisor, which included an estimated liquidation value for each of our real estate properties owned as of December 31, 2020 and the estimated liquidation value for our other assets and our liabilities as of December 31, 2020, in each case as determined by our advisor. In light of the valuation report and other factors considered by the conflicts committee and the conflicts committee’s own extensive knowledge of our assets and liabilities, the conflicts committee: (i) concluded that the estimated range of liquidating distributions per share of $1.91 to $2.24, with an approximate mid-range value of $2.07 per share, each as determined and recommended by our advisor, and which approximate mid-range value was based on our advisor’s estimated liquidation value for each of our real estate properties owned as of December 31, 2020 and our advisor’s estimated liquidation value for our other assets and our liabilities as of December 31, 2020, was reasonable and (ii) recommended to our board of directors that it adopt $2.07 as the estimated value per share of our common stock, which estimated value per share is based on those factors discussed in (i) above. The board of directors unanimously agreed to accept the recommendation of the conflicts committee and approved $2.07 as the estimated value per share of our common stock, which determination is ultimately and solely the responsibility of the board of directors.

As of December 31, 2020, we had no potentially dilutive securities outstanding that would impact the estimated value per share of our common stock.
Methodology
The following is a summary of the valuation methodologies, assumptions and estimates used to value our assets and liabilities:
Real Estate Valuation
As of December 31, 2020, we owned four office properties and an office building that is part of an office campus. Our advisor valued our investments in real estate properties at their estimated net realizable value, or liquidation value. The estimated liquidation value of our real estate properties as of December 31, 2020 was $698.5 million, exclusive of net operating income to be earned and projected capital expenditures to be incurred over the expected hold period through the sale of the properties. The liquidation value represents the estimated amount of cash that we will collect through the disposal of the properties, including any residual value attributable to lease intangibles. Our advisor estimated the liquidation value of our real estate properties based on internal valuation methodologies using a combination of the direct capitalization approach, sales comparison approach and discounted cash flow analyses and relied primarily on discounted cash flow analyses for the estimated liquidation value for each of the four office properties and relied on a sales comparison approach for the office building that is part of an office campus, which was vacant. Our advisor calculated the discounted cash flow value of each of the four office properties using property-level cash flow estimates, terminal capitalization rates and discount rates that fall within ranges it believes would be used by similar investors to value the properties based on recent comparable market transactions adjusted for unique property and market-specific factors. The sales comparison approach utilizes sales of comparable properties, adjusted for differences, to determine an appropriate value per rentable square foot of space. The liquidation values of our investments in real estate properties are presented on an undiscounted basis.

Table of Contents
While we believe that our advisor’s assumptions and inputs are reasonable, a change in these assumptions and inputs would significantly impact the liquidation value of our real estate properties and thus, our estimated value per share. The table below illustrates the impact on the estimated value per share if the terminal capitalization rates or discount rates our advisor used to estimate the liquidation value of the four office properties were adjusted by 25 basis points, assuming all other factors remain unchanged.

Decrease of 5%Increase of 5%
Price per square foot$(0.01)$0.01 


Notes Payable
Our advisor estimated the liquidation value of our notes payable as of December 31, 2020 at their contractual amounts due. As of December 31, 2020, we had $240.5 million of variable rate debt outstanding.
Other Assets and Liabilities
Our advisor valued our other assets and liabilities at their estimated net realizable value, or liquidation value, as of December 31, 2020. Our advisor estimated the costs and income that it expects us to incur and earn through the completion of our liquidation, including the estimated amount of cash our advisor expects us to collect through the disposal of our assets, the estimated costs to dispose of our assets and the estimated capital expenditures through the anticipated disposition dates of our properties, to the extent our advisor had a reasonable basis for estimation. Revenue from tenants was estimated based on the contractual in-place leases and projected leases through the anticipated disposition date of the property. Liabilities were valued at their contractual amounts due or estimated settlement amounts. Our advisor estimated certain liquidation costs to the extent it had a reasonable basis for estimation, including legal fees, dissolution costs, final audit/tax costs, insurance, and distribution processing costs.
Limitations of the Estimated Value Per Share
As mentioned above, we are providing this estimated value per share to assist broker-dealers that participated in our now-terminated initial public offering in meeting their customer account statement reporting obligations. This estimated value per share will first appear on the March 2021 customer account statements that will be mailed in April 2021. As with any valuation methodology, the methodologies used are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete. Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated value per share, and this difference could be significant. Moreover, we did not obtain appraisals in connection with the determination of the estimated value per share, and the determination was based solely on the factors discussed above.
Our expectations about the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation and the amount of any additional liquidating distributions that we pay to our stockholders and when we will pay them are subject to risks and uncertainties and are based on certain estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect. There are many factors that may affect the amount of liquidating distributions we will ultimately pay to our stockholders. If we underestimate our existing obligations and liabilities or the amount of taxes, transaction fees and expenses relating to the liquidation and dissolution, or if unanticipated or contingent liabilities arise, the amount of liquidating distributions ultimately paid to our stockholders could be less than estimated. Moreover, the liquidation value will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to individual assets in our portfolio and the management of those assets, in response to the real estate and finance markets, based on the actual liquidation timing and the amount of net proceeds received from the disposition of the remaining assets and due to other factors.

In particular, the outbreak of COVID-19, together with the resulting measures imposed to help control the spread of the virus, including quarantines, “shelter-in-place” and “stay-at-home” orders, travel restrictions, restrictions on businesses and school closures, has had a negative impact on the economy and business activity globally. The COVID-19 pandemic is negatively impacting almost every industry, including the U.S. office real estate industry and the industries of our tenants, directly or indirectly. Many of our tenants have suffered reductions in revenue, and from March 2020 through December 31, 2020, we granted rent relief to eight tenants as a result of the pandemic. Depending upon the duration of the pandemic, the various measures imposed to help control the spread of the virus and the corresponding economic slowdown, these tenants or additional tenants may seek rent deferrals or abatements in future periods or become unable to pay their rent. While we considered the impact from COVID-19 on our estimated value per share, the extent to which our business may be affected by COVID-19 depends on future developments with respect to the continued spread and treatment of the virus, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures. Any long-term impact of this situation, even after an economic rebound, remains unclear. Given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by stockholders. See also “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Summary Risk Factors” preceding Part I and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of this Annual Report.
No assurance can be given that any additional liquidating distributions we pay to our stockholders will equal or exceed the estimated value per share or the range of estimated net proceeds from liquidation as of March 11, 2021. Accordingly, with respect to the estimated value per share, we can give no assurance:
of the amount or timing of liquidating distributions we will ultimately be able to pay our stockholders;
that a stockholder would be able to resell his or her shares at the estimated value per share;
that an independent third-party appraiser or third-party valuation firm would agree with the estimated value per share; or
that the methodology used to determine the estimated value per share would be acceptable to FINRA or for compliance with ERISA reporting requirements.

(1) The estimated value per share of $4.50 resulted from the payment of a special distribution of $0.45 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of June 17, 2019. Our board of directors declared a special distribution in the amount of $0.45 per share on the outstanding shares of our common stock on June 12, 2019 to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 17, 2019. This special distributions was paid on June 21, 2019 and was funded from our net proceeds from the disposition of two real estate properties in May 2019. The June 17, 2019 estimated value per share was based solely on the December 3, 2018 estimated value per share reduced for the impact of the special distribution.
(2) The estimated value per share of $6.05 resulted, in part, from the payment of a special distribution of $4.50 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of September 15, 2014. Excluding the impact of the special distribution, our estimated value per share of common stock would have been $10.55 as of September 22, 2014. Our board of directors declared special distributions in the amount of $3.75, $0.30 and $0.45 per share on the outstanding shares of our common stock on July 8, 2014, August 5, 2014 and August 29, 2014, respectively, for an aggregate amount of $4.50 per share of common stock, to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 15, 2014. These special distributions were paid on September 23, 2014 and were funded from our proceeds from the disposition of nine real estate properties between May 2014 and August 2014 as well as cash on hand resulting primarily from the repayment or sale of five real estate loans receivable during 2013 and 2014.
Distribution Information
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code and intend to operate in such a manner. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). Our board of directors may authorize distributions in excess of those required for us to maintain REIT status depending on our financial condition and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.

In accordance with the Plan of Liquidation, our objectives are to pursue an orderly liquidation of our company by selling all of our remaining assets, paying our debts and our known liabilities, providing for the payment of unknown or contingent liabilities, distributing the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders and winding up our operations and dissolving our company. We expect to continue to pay liquidating distribution payments to our stockholders through the completion of our liquidation process and to pay the final liquidating distribution after we sell all of our assets, pay all of our known liabilities and provide for unknown liabilities. We expect to substantially complete these activities within 24 months from March 5, 2020, the day our stockholders approved the Plan of Liquidation. Pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, from March 5, 2020 through December 31, 2020, our board of directors authorized three liquidating distributions:
On March 5, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Initial Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.75 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2020. This Initial Liquidating Distribution was paid on March 10, 2020 and was funded from proceeds from the sale of the Campus Drive Buildings.
On July 31, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Second Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.25 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2020. This Second Liquidating Distribution was paid on August 7, 2020 and was funded from proceeds from the sale of two office buildings in Corporate Technology Centre - 100 Headquarters and 200 Holger.
On December 24, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Third Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.40 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 24, 2020. This Third Liquidating Distribution was paid on December 30, 2020 and was funded from proceeds from the sale of two office buildings in Corporate Technology Centre - 250 Holger and 350 Holger.
Our expectations about the amount of liquidating distributions that we will pay and when we will pay them are based on many estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, the actual amount of liquidating distributions we pay to our stockholders may be more or less than we estimate and the liquidating distributions may be paid later than we predict. Further, given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by stockholders. See Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Market Outlook — Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets — COVID-19 Pandemic and Portfolio Outlook” for a discussion of the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on our business and our liquidation and Part I, Item 1A, “Risks Factors.” We do not expect to pay regular monthly distributions during the liquidation process. During the liquidating process, we intend to maintain adequate cash reserves for liquidity, capital expenditures, debt repayments, future Special Redemptions under our share redemption program and other future capital needs.
On June 12, 2019, our board of directors declared a special distribution in the amount of $0.45 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 17, 2019. Distributions declared per common share were $0.649 in the aggregate for the year ended December 31, 2019. Other than the special distribution, during 2019, distributions per common share were based on a monthly record date for each month during the period commencing January 2019 through October 2019.
Distributions declared during 2019, aggregated by quarter, are as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, we did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933.
Share Redemption Program
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 and, together with redemptions sought in connection with a stockholder’s death, “Special Redemptions”). Such redemptions are subject to the limitations described in the share redemption program document, including:
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 November 13, 2019, our board of directors approved the dollar amount limitation for Special Redemptions for calendar year 2020 of $10.0 million in the aggregate. On December 24, 2020, our board of directors approved the same annual dollar limitation of $10.0 million in the aggregate for the calendar year 2021 (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.
We do not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future. In connection with the approval by our stockholders of the Plan of Liquidation, on March 5, 2020, our board of directors approved the Tenth Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program (the “Amended Share Redemption Program”). The Amended Share Redemption Program became effective on March 20, 2020.
Prior to effectiveness of the Amended Share Redemption Program, the redemption price for redemptions made in connection with a Special Redemption was equal to the most recent estimated value per share of our common stock as of the redemption date. On November 13, 2019, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $3.79 (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, 2019, except for certain items for which estimated values were adjusted subsequent to September 30, 2019. The change in redemption price became effective for the November 2019 redemption date, which was November 29, 2019, and was effective through the February 2020 redemption date, which was February 28, 2020. 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 Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on November 15, 2019.

The Amended Share Redemption Program changed the redemption price per share of our common stock eligible for Special Redemptions to take into account the November 13, 2019 estimated range of liquidating distributions as disclosed in our Definitive Proxy Statement, filed with the SEC on December 9, 2019, and any liquidating distributions declared by our board of directors. The Amended Share Redemption Program set the redemption price per share of our common stock eligible for redemption at (a) $3.615 (which represented the mid-point of the November 13, 2019 estimated range of liquidating distributions of $3.40 to $3.83 per share) less (b) the amount of any liquidating distributions on such share declared by our board of directors that had a record date prior to the applicable redemption date for such share. Pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, on March 5, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Initial Liquidating Distribution on the outstanding shares of our common stock to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2020, with the amount per share of the Initial Liquidating Distribution equal to $0.75. The Initial Liquidating Distribution was paid on March 10, 2020. Therefore, effective commencing with the March 31, 2020 redemption date, the redemption price for all shares eligible for redemption was equal to $2.87, which was effective through the May 29, 2020 redemption date. For more information, see our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2020.
On June 15, 2020, our board of directors approved an updated estimated value per share of our common stock of $2.66, effective June 9, 2020 (the “June 2020 Estimated Value Per Share”). In connection with the approval of the June 2020 Estimated Value Per Share, on June 15, 2020, our board of directors approved the Eleventh Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program (the “11th Amended Share Redemption Program”), which became effective on June 30, 2020. The 11th Amended Share Redemption Program sets the redemption price per share of our common stock eligible for redemption at our most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date, provided that if our board of directors has declared liquidating distributions on such share with a record date prior to the applicable redemption date for such share and the most recent estimated value per share has not been updated to reflect the reduction for such liquidating distributions, then the redemption price per share will be reduced to reflect the amount of such liquidating distributions. Thus, effective commencing with the June 30, 2020 redemption date, the redemption price for all shares eligible for redemption was equal to $2.66, which was effective through the July 31, 2020 redemption date. For more information, see our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on June 16, 2020.
On July 31, 2020, in connection with the authorization of the Second Liquidating Distribution, our board of directors approved an updated estimated value per share of our common stock of $2.41, effective August 7, 2020. Therefore, effective commencing with the August 31, 2020 redemption date, the redemption price for all shares eligible for redemption was equal to $2.41, which was effective through the November 30, 2020 redemption date. For more information, see our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on August 3, 2020.
On December 24, 2020, in connection with the authorization of the Third Liquidating Distribution, our board of directors approved an updated estimated value per share of our common stock of $2.01, effective December 30, 2020. Therefore, effective commencing with the December 31, 2020 redemption date, the redemption price for all shares eligible for redemption was equal to $2.01, which was effective through the February 26, 2021 redemption date. For more information, see our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on December 28, 2020.
On March 11, 2021, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $2.07 based on our net assets in liquidation, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of December 31, 2020. Therefore, effective commencing with the March 31, 2021 redemption date, the redemption price for all shares eligible for redemption will equal $2.07. For more information, see Part II, Item 5, “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Market Information” in this Annual Report.
We will report future redemption prices in a Current Report on Form 8-K or in our annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the SEC.
We may amend, suspend or terminate our share redemption program for any reason upon ten business days’ notice to our stockholders, and 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 (a) in a Current Report on Form 8-K or in our annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the SEC or (b) in a separate mailing to our stockholders.

Based on the redemption limitations described above and redemptions through February 28, 2021, we may redeem up to $9.6 million of shares in connection with Special Redemptions for the remainder of 2021.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the “Selected Financial Data” above and our accompanying consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Also see “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Summary Risk Factors” preceding Part I and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”
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 investments. Our advisor owns 20,000 shares of our common stock. We have no paid employees.
As of December 31, 2020, we owned four office properties and an office building that is part of an office campus.
As of December 31, 2020, we had 184,299,500 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
On November 13, 2019, in connection with a review of potential strategic alternatives available to us, a special committee composed of all of our independent directors (the “Special Committee”) and our board of directors unanimously approved the sale of all of our assets and our dissolution pursuant to the terms of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution (the “Plan of Liquidation”). The principal purpose of the Plan of Liquidation is to provide liquidity to our stockholders by selling our assets, paying our debts and distributing the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders. On March 5, 2020, our stockholders approved the Plan of Liquidation. The Plan of Liquidation is included as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Plan of Liquidation
In accordance with the Plan of Liquidation, our objectives are to pursue an orderly liquidation of our company by selling all of our remaining assets, paying our debts and our known liabilities, providing for the payment of unknown or contingent liabilities, distributing the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders and winding up our operations and dissolving our company. While pursuing our liquidation pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, we intend to continue to manage our portfolio of assets to maintain and, if possible, improve the quality and income-producing ability of our properties to enhance property stability and better position our remaining assets for sale.
We expect to distribute substantially all of the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders within 24 months from March 5, 2020. Pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, on March 5, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Initial Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.75 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2020. On July 31, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Second Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.25 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2020, and on December 24, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Third Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.40 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 24, 2020. We expect to continue to pay liquidating distribution payments to our stockholders through the completion of our liquidation process. However, if we cannot sell our assets and pay our debts within 24 months from March 5, 2020, or if the board of directors and the Special Committee determine that it is otherwise advisable to do so, pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, we may transfer and assign our remaining assets to a liquidating trust. Upon such transfer and assignment, our stockholders will receive beneficial interests in the liquidating trust.

Our expectations about the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation and the amount of any additional liquidating distributions that we will pay to our stockholders and when we will pay them are subject to risks and uncertainties and are based on certain estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, the actual amount of any additional liquidating distributions we pay to stockholders may be more or less than we estimate and the liquidating distributions may be paid later than we predict. There are many factors that may affect the amount of liquidating distributions we will ultimately pay to our stockholders. If we underestimate our existing obligations and liabilities or the amount of taxes, transaction fees and expenses relating to the liquidation and dissolution, or if unanticipated or contingent liabilities arise, the amount of liquidating distributions ultimately paid to our stockholders could be less than estimated. Moreover, the liquidation value will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to individual assets in our portfolio and the management of those assets, in response to the real estate and finance markets, based on the actual liquidation timing and the amount of net proceeds received from the disposition of the remaining assets and due to other factors. Given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by our stockholders. While we have considered the impact from COVID-19 in our net assets in liquidation presented on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets as of December 31, 2020, the extent to which our business may be affected by COVID-19 depends on future developments with respect to the continued spread and treatment of the virus, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures. Any long-term impact of this situation, even after an economic rebound, remains unclear. See “ — Market Outlook — Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets — COVID-19 Pandemic and Portfolio Outlook” for a discussion of the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on our business and our liquidation. We can give no assurance regarding the timing of asset dispositions in connection with the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, the sale prices we will receive for our assets, and the amount or timing of liquidating distributions to be received by our stockholders.

Market Outlook – Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets
Volatility in global financial markets and changing political environments can cause fluctuations in the performance of the U.S. commercial real estate 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 from our properties. Further, 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), rent deferrals or abatements, tenants being unable to pay their rent and/or lower rental rates. Reductions in revenues from our properties would adversely impact the timing of asset sales and/or the sales price we will receive for our properties. To the extent there are increases in the cost of financing due to higher interest rates, this may cause difficulty in refinancing debt obligations at terms as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. Further, increases in interest rates would increase the amount of our debt payments on our variable rate debt. Management continuously reviews our debt financing strategies to optimize our portfolio and the cost of our debt exposure. Market conditions can change quickly, potentially negatively impacting the value of real estate investments. Most recently, the outbreak of COVID-19 has had a negative impact on the real estate market as discussed below.
COVID-19 Pandemic and Portfolio Outlook
Since initially being reported in December 2019, COVID-19 has spread around the world, including to every state in the United States. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted global economic activity and caused significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The global impact of the pandemic continues to evolve and many countries, states and localities, including states and localities in the United States, have reacted by imposing measures to help control the spread of the virus, including instituting quarantines, “shelter-in-place” and “stay-at-home” orders, travel restrictions, restrictions on businesses and school closures. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic is negatively impacting almost every industry, including the U.S. office real estate industry and the industries of our tenants, directly or indirectly. As of December 31, 2020, tenants in the mining and oil and gas extraction industry represented approximately 18% of our base rent. Tenants in this sector have been adversely impacted by the reduced demand for oil as a result of the slowdown in economic activity resulting from the pandemic spread of COVID-19 and the collapse in oil prices. The fluidity of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to preclude any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact the pandemic may have on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidation.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, we did not experience significant impact to rental income collections from the COVID-19 pandemic. Rent collections for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 were approximately 99%. Many of our tenants have suffered reductions in revenue. As of December 31, 2020, we had entered into lease amendments related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, granting $0.2 million of rent deferrals for the period from March 2020 through December 31, 2020 and granting $0.2 million in rental abatements during this period. From March 2020 through December 31, 2020, eight tenants were granted rental deferrals or rental abatements as a result of the pandemic, of which three tenants have begun to pay rent in accordance with their lease agreements subsequent to the deferral or abatement period. Four of the eight tenants continue to have rent abated through March 2021. Depending upon the duration of the pandemic, the various measures imposed to help control the spread of the virus and the corresponding economic slowdown, these tenants or additional tenants may seek rent deferrals or abatements in future periods or become unable to pay their rent. We will continue to evaluate any additional short-term rent relief requests from tenants on an individual basis. Any future rent relief arrangements are expected to be structured as temporary short-term deferrals of base rent that will be paid back over time. Not all tenant requests will ultimately result in modified agreements, nor are we forgoing our contractual rights under our lease agreements. In most cases, it is in our best interest to help our tenants remain in business and reopen when restrictions are lifted. If tenants default on their rent and vacate, the ability to re-lease this space is likely to be more difficult if the economic slowdown continues and any long term impact of this situation, even after an economic rebound, remains unclear. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, we have not seen a material impact on our rent collections. However, current collections and rent relief requests to-date may not be indicative of collections or requests in any future period. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our rental revenue for the first quarter of 2021 and thereafter cannot be determined at present.
Although we did not experience significant disruptions in rental income, during the year ended December 31, 2020, we reduced the estimated liquidation value of our real estate portfolio by $90.2 million due to changes in leasing projections across our portfolio resulting in lower projected cash flow and projected sales prices caused by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. See “— Changes in Net Assets in Liquidation” for a discussion of the change in liquidation value of real estate properties. We may need to recognize additional decreases in the values of our real estate properties to the extent leasing projections and projected sales prices continue to decline at our properties.
As of December 31, 2020, we had $48.4 million of revolving debt available for immediate future disbursement under our portfolio loan facility, subject to certain conditions set forth in the loan agreements. Significant reductions in rental revenue in the future may limit our ability to draw on our portfolio loan facility due to covenants described in our loan agreements. However, we believe that our cash on hand, proceeds from asset sales and proceeds available under our portfolio loan facility and mortgage loan will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs during our liquidation.
The COVID-19 pandemic or a future pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of infectious disease affecting states or regions in which we or our tenants operate could have material and adverse effects on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our liquidation due to, among other factors: health or other government authorities requiring the closure of offices or other businesses or instituting quarantines of personnel as the result of, or in order to avoid, exposure to a contagious disease; disruption in supply and delivery chains; a general decline in business activity and demand for real estate, especially office properties; reduced economic activity, general economic decline or recession, which may impact our tenants’ businesses, financial condition and liquidity and may cause tenants to be unable to make rent payments to us timely, or at all, or to otherwise seek modifications of lease obligations; difficulty accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all, and a severe disruption and instability in the global financial markets or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions, which may affect our access to capital necessary to fund business operations or address maturing liabilities on a timely basis and may result in fewer buyers seeking to acquire commercial real estate; and the potential negative impact on the health of personnel of our advisor, particularly if a significant number of our advisor’s employees are impacted, which would result in a deterioration in our ability to ensure business continuity during a disruption.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic or any other pandemic, epidemic or disease impacts our operations and those of our tenants and our ability to implement our Plan of Liquidation depends on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. Nevertheless, the COVID-19 pandemic (or a future pandemic, epidemic or disease) presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our liquidation.
Our business, like all businesses, is being impacted by the uncertainty regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, the effectiveness of policies introduced to neutralize the disease, and the impact of those policies on economic activity. Given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by our stockholders.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As described above under “— Overview — Plan of Liquidation,” on March 5, 2020, our stockholders approved the sale of all of our assets and our dissolution pursuant to the terms of the Plan of Liquidation. We expect to sell all of our assets, pay all of our known liabilities, provide for unknown liabilities and distribute the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders. Our principal demands for funds during our liquidation are and will be for: the payment of operating expenses, capital expenditures and general and administrative expenses, including expenses in connection with the Plan of Liquidation; payments under debt obligations; Special Redemptions of common stock pursuant to our share redemption program; and payments of distributions to stockholders pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation. During our liquidation, we intend to use our cash on hand and proceeds from the sale of real estate properties as our primary sources of liquidity. To the extent available, we also intend to use cash flow generated by our real estate investments and proceeds from debt financing; however, asset sales will further reduce cash flows from these sources during the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation.
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. We do not expect to make ordinary redemptions in the future. On December 24, 2020, our board of directors approved an annual dollar limitation of $10.0 million in the aggregate for the calendar year 2021 for Special Redemptions (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.
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, all of which may be adversely affected by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as discussed above. As of December 31, 2020, our real estate properties were 73% occupied.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, our cash needs for capital expenditures and the payment of debt obligations were met with cash on hand and proceeds from asset sales. Operating cash needs during the same period were met with cash flow generated by our real estate. We believe that our cash on hand, proceeds from the sales of real estate properties and, to the extent available, our cash flow from operations and proceeds available under our portfolio loan facility and mortgage loan will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs during our liquidation. As discussed above, asset sales will further reduce cash flows from operations and proceeds available from debt financing during the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation.
On March 5, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Initial Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.75 per share of common stock to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2020. This Initial Liquidating Distribution was paid on March 10, 2020 and was funded from proceeds from the sale of the Campus Drive Buildings. On July 31, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Second Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.25 per share of common stock to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2020. This Second Liquidating Distribution was paid on August 7, 2020 and was funded from proceeds from the sale of two office buildings in Corporate Technology Centre - 100 Headquarters and 200 Holger. On December 24, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Third Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.40 per share of common stock to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 24, 2020. This Third Liquidating Distribution was paid on December 30, 2020 and was funded from the proceeds from the sale of two office buildings in Corporate Technology Centre - 250 Holger and 350 Holger. We do not expect to pay regular monthly distributions during the liquidating process. During the liquidating process, we intend to maintain adequate cash reserves for liquidity, capital expenditures, debt repayments, future Special Redemptions under our share redemption program and other future capital needs.
We expect to continue to pay liquidating distribution payments to our stockholders through the completion of our liquidation process and to pay the final liquidating distribution after we sell all of our assets, pay all of our known liabilities and provide for unknown liabilities. We expect to substantially complete these activities within 24 months from March 5, 2020, the day our stockholders approved the Plan of Liquidation. However, our expectations about the amount of liquidating distributions that we will pay and when we will pay them are based on many estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, the actual amount of liquidating distributions we pay to our stockholders may be more or less than we estimate and the liquidating distributions may be paid later than we predict. See “— Overview — Plan of Liquidation” and “—Market Outlook — Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets — COVID-19 Pandemic and Portfolio Outlook” for a discussion of the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on our business and our liquidation.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
During the month ended January 31, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was $7.4 million.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities was $299.3 million for the month ended January 31, 2020 and consisted of the following:
$302.0 million of net proceeds from the sale of the Campus Drive Buildings; and
$2.7 million used for improvements to real estate.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
During the month ended January 31, 2020, net cash used in financing activities was $177.0 million and consisted of the following:
$176.7 million of principal payments on notes payable; and
$0.3 million of cash used for redemptions of common stock.
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. We also continue to reimburse our advisor and our dealer manager for certain stockholder services.
During the period from February 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $139.7 million primarily as a result of the payments of the $138.9 million Initial Liquidating Distribution, the $46.2 million Second Liquidating Distribution, the $73.7 million Third Liquidating Distribution and $50.8 million of capital expenditure payments offset by $152.9 million of net proceeds from the sale of four buildings in Corporate Technology Centre and $20.6 million of net cash flows from operations.
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 December 31, 2020, our borrowings and other liabilities were approximately 37% of both the cost (before deducting depreciation and other noncash reserves) and book value (before deducting depreciation) of our tangible assets, respectively.
Pursuant to our stockholders’ approval of the Plan of Liquidation, we adopted the liquidation basis of accounting as of February 1, 2020 (as the approval of the Plan of Liquidation by our stockholders became imminent within the first week of February 2020 based on the results of our solicitation of proxies from our stockholders for their approval of the Plan of Liquidation) and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020 in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, on February 1, 2020, assets were adjusted to their estimated net realizable value, or liquidation value, which represents the estimated amount of cash that we will collect through the disposal of our assets as we carry out our Plan of Liquidation. The liquidation values of our operating properties are presented on an undiscounted basis. Estimated costs to dispose of assets and estimated capital expenditures through the anticipated disposition date of the properties have been presented separately from the related assets. Liabilities are carried at their contractual amounts due or estimated settlement amounts.

(1) Amounts include principal payments only based on maturity dates as of December 31, 2020; subject to certain conditions, the maturity dates of certain loans may be extended beyond what is shown above.
(2) Projected interest payments are based on the outstanding principal amounts, maturity dates and interest rates in effect as of December 31, 2020 (consisting of the contractual interest rate). We incurred interest expense of $1.1 million, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.1 million during the month ended January 31, 2020. During the 11 months ended December 31, 2020, we incurred interest expense of $4.7 million.

Changes in Net Assets in Liquidation
Period from February 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020
Net assets in liquidation decreased by approximately $322.9 million from $704.4 million on February 1, 2020 to $381.5 million on December 31, 2020. Pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, on March 5, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Initial Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.75 per share of common stock to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2020, for an aggregate cash distribution of approximately $138.9 million. The Initial Liquidating Distribution was paid on March 10, 2020 and was funded with proceeds from the sale of the Campus Drive Buildings. On July 31, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Second Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.25 per share of common stock to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2020, for an aggregate cash distribution of approximately $46.2 million. The Second Liquidating Distribution was paid on August 7, 2020 and was funded with proceeds from the sale of two office buildings in Corporate Technology Centre - 100 Headquarters and 200 Holger. On December 24, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Third Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.40 per share of common stock to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 24, 2020, for an aggregate cash distribution of approximately $73.7 million. The Third Liquidating Distribution was paid on December 30, 2020 and was funded with proceeds from the sale of two office buildings in Corporate Technology Centre - 250 Holger and 350 Holger. These liquidating distributions were the largest component of the decline in net assets in liquidation.
The estimated net realizable value of real estate decreased by $90.2 million during the 11 months ended December 31, 2020, which was primarily driven by our investment in an office building located in Los Angeles, California (the “Union Bank Plaza”) and an office property located in Denver, Colorado (“Granite Tower”), as follows:
Union Bank Plaza –The estimated net proceeds from the sale of the Union Bank Plaza decreased by approximately $57.5 million primarily due to changes in leasing projections and related capital investments to account for a longer lease-up period and lower projected rental rates caused by COVID-19. As of December 31, 2020, the Union Bank Plaza was 72% leased and due to the amount of vacancy, its valuation or projected sales price is more sensitive to the disruption caused by COVID-19 as compared to a fully stabilized property. Additionally, the valuation or projected sales price was adjusted to increase the terminal capitalization rates and discount rate to account for the increased risk and uncertainty in the current environment.
Granite Tower – The estimated net proceeds from the sale of Granite Tower decreased by approximately $24.3 million due to changes in leasing projections and related capital investments to account for a longer lease-up period and lower projected rental rates caused by COVID-19. Granite Tower is further impacted by the deteriorating oil and gas industry as its anchor tenant that occupies approximately 50% of the building square footage as of December 31, 2020 is engaged in the exploration and production of oil and gas. The valuation or projected sales price was adjusted to increase the terminal capitalization rates and discount rate to account for the increased risk and uncertainty in the current environment caused by COVID-19 and the deteriorating oil and gas industry. As of December 31, 2020, Granite Tower was 82% leased.
Other Properties – The estimated net proceeds from the sales of our other real estate properties were adjusted to increase the terminal capitalization rates and discount rates to account for the increased risk and uncertainty caused by COVID-19 resulting in a net reduction in the aggregate estimated net proceeds from sales of $8.4 million.

Results of Operations
In light of the adoption of liquidation basis accounting as of February 1, 2020, the results of operations for the current year period are not comparable to the prior year period. The sale of assets under the Plan of Liquidation will have a significant impact on our operations. Changes in liquidation values of our assets are discussed above under “— Changes in Net Assets in Liquidation.” See “— Overview — Plan of Liquidation” and “— Market Outlook — Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets — COVID-19 Pandemic and Portfolio Outlook” for a discussion of the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on our business and our liquidation. For a discussion of the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended December 31, 2018, please refer to Item 7 of Part II, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, which was filed with the SEC on March 6, 2020 and which specific discussion is incorporated herein by reference.
Due to the adoption of the Plan of Liquidation, we are no longer reporting funds from operations and modified funds from operations as we no longer consider these to be key performance measures.

Critical Accounting Policies
Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that management considers critical in that they involve significant management judgments and assumptions, require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain and because they are important for understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. 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.
Subsequent to the adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting, we are required to estimate all costs and income we expect to incur and earn through the end of liquidation including the estimated amount of cash we expect to collect through the disposal of our assets and the estimated costs to dispose of our assets.
Pursuant to our stockholders’ approval of the Plan of Liquidation, we adopted the liquidation basis of accounting as of and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020 (as approval of the Plan of Liquidation became imminent within the first week of February 2020 based on the results of our solicitation of proxies from our stockholders for their approval of the Plan of Liquidation). Accordingly, on February 1, 2020, assets were adjusted to their estimated net realizable value, or liquidation value, which represents the estimated amount of cash that we will collect through the disposal of our assets as we carry out our Plan of Liquidation. The liquidation values of our remaining real estate properties are presented on an undiscounted basis. Estimated costs to dispose of assets and estimated capital expenditures through the anticipated disposition date of the properties have been presented separately from the related assets. Liabilities are carried at their contractual amounts due or estimated settlement amounts.
We accrue costs and income that we expect to incur and earn through the completion of our liquidation, including the estimated amount of cash we expect to collect through the disposal of our assets and the estimated costs to dispose of our assets, to the extent we have a reasonable basis for estimation. These amounts are classified as a liability for estimated costs in excess of estimated receipts during liquidation on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets. Actual costs and income may differ from amounts reflected in the financial statements because of the inherent uncertainty in estimating future events. These differences may be material. See Note 2, “Plan of Liquidation” and Note 4, “Liabilities for Estimated Costs in Excess of Estimated Receipts During Liquidation” for further discussion. Actual costs incurred but unpaid as of December 31, 2020 are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to affiliate and other liabilities on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets.
Revenue Recognition - Operating Leases
Liquidation Basis of Accounting
Under the liquidation basis of accounting, we have accrued all income that we expect to earn through the completion of our liquidation to the extent we have a reasonable basis for estimation. Revenue from tenants is estimated based on the contractual in-place leases and projected leases through the anticipated disposition date of the property. These amounts are classified in liabilities for estimated costs in excess of estimated receipts during liquidation on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets.

Going Concern Basis
Real Estate
On January 1, 2019, we adopted the lease accounting standards under Topic 842 including the package of practical expedients for all leases that commenced before the effective date of January 1, 2019. Accordingly, we (i) did not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) did not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing lease, and (iii) did not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. We did not elect the practical expedient related to using hindsight to reevaluate the lease term. In addition, we adopted the practical expedient for land easements and did not assess whether existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under the lease accounting standards of Topic 840 are or contain a lease under Topic 842.
In addition, Topic 842 provides an optional transition method to allow entities to apply the new lease accounting standards at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. We adopted this transition method upon our adoption of the lease accounting standards of Topic 842, which did not result in a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on January 1, 2019. Our comparative periods presented in the financial statements were reported under the lease accounting standards of Topic 840 until our adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting as of and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020.
In accordance with Topic 842, tenant reimbursements for property taxes and insurance were included in the single lease component of the lease contract (the right of the lessee to use the leased space) and therefore were accounted for as variable lease payments and were recorded as rental income on our statement of operations beginning January 1, 2019 until our adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting as of and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020. In addition, we adopted the practical expedient available under Topic 842 to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component and instead to account for those components as a single component if the nonlease components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue recognition standard (Topic 606) and if certain conditions are met, specifically related to tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance which would otherwise be accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. We believe the two conditions have been met for tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance as (i) the timing and pattern of transfer of the nonlease components and associated lease components are the same and (ii) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease. Accordingly, tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance were also accounted for as variable lease payments and recorded as rental income on our statement of operations beginning January 1, 2019 until our adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting as of and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020.
Until our adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting as of and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020, we recognized minimum rent, including rental abatements, lease incentives and contractual fixed increases attributable to operating leases, on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases when collectibility was probable and recorded amounts expected to be received in later years as deferred rent receivable. If the lease provided for tenant improvements, we determined whether the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, were owned by the tenant or us. When we were the owner of the tenant improvements, the tenant was not considered to have taken physical possession or have control of the physical use of the leased asset until the tenant improvements were substantially completed. When the tenant was the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvement allowance (including amounts that can be taken in the form of cash or a credit against the tenant’s rent) that was funded was treated as a lease incentive and amortized as a reduction of rental revenue over the lease term. Tenant improvement ownership is determined based on various factors including, but not limited to:
whether the lease stipulates how a tenant improvement allowance may be spent;
whether the lessee or lessor supervises the construction and bears the risk of cost overruns;
whether the amount of a tenant improvement allowance is in excess of market rates;
whether the tenant or landlord retains legal title to the improvements at the end of the lease term;
whether the tenant improvements are unique to the tenant or general purpose in nature; and
whether the tenant improvements are expected to have any residual value at the end of the lease.
In accordance with Topic 842, we made a determination of whether the collectibility of the lease payments in an operating lease was probable. If we determined the lease payments were not probable of collection, we fully reserved for any contractual lease payments, deferred rent receivable, and variable lease payments and recognized rental income only if cash was received. Beginning January 1, 2019, these changes to our collectibility assessment were reflected as an adjustment to rental income. Prior to January 1, 2019, bad debt expense related to uncollectible accounts receivable and deferred rent receivable was included in operating, maintenance, and management expense in the statement of operations. Any subsequent changes to the collectibility of the allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2018, which was recorded prior to the adoption of Topic 842, were recorded in operating, maintenance, and management expense in the statement of operations.

Table of Contents
Beginning January 1, 2019, we, as a lessor, recorded costs to negotiate or arrange a lease that would have been incurred regardless of whether the lease was obtained, such as legal costs incurred to negotiate an operating lease, as an expense and classified such costs as operating, maintenance, and management expense on our consolidated statement of operations, as these costs were no longer capitalizable under the definition of initial direct costs under Topic 842.
Sales of Real Estate
Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted the guidance of ASC 610-20, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (“ASC 610-20”), which applies to sales or transfers to noncustomers of nonfinancial assets or in substance nonfinancial assets that do not meet the definition of a business. Generally, our sales of real estate would be considered a sale of a nonfinancial asset as defined by ASC 610-20.
ASC 610-20 refers to the revenue recognition principles under ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Under ASC 610-20, if we determined we did not have a controlling financial interest in the entity that held the asset and the arrangement met the criteria to be accounted for as a contract, we derecognized the asset and recognized a gain or loss on the sale of the real estate when control of the underlying asset transferred to the buyer.
Real Estate
Liquidation Basis of Accounting
As of February 1, 2020, our investments in real estate were adjusted to their estimated net realizable value, or liquidation value, to reflect the change to the liquidation basis of accounting. The liquidation value represents the estimated amount of cash that we will collect through the disposal of our assets, including any residual value attributable to lease intangibles, as we carry out the Plan of Liquidation. As of December 31, 2020, we estimated the liquidation value of our real estate investments based on internal valuation methodologies using a combination of the direct capitalization approach, sales comparison approach and discounted cash flow analyses and relied primarily on discounted cash flow analyses for the estimated liquidation value for each of the four office properties and relied on a sales comparison approach for the office building that is part of an office campus, which was vacant. The liquidation values of our investments in real estate are presented on an undiscounted basis and investments in real estate are no longer depreciated. Estimated costs to dispose of these investments are carried at their contractual amounts due or estimated settlement amounts and are presented separately from the related assets. Subsequent to February 1, 2020, all changes in the estimated liquidation value of the investments in real estate are reflected as a change to our net assets in liquidation.
Going Concern Basis
Depreciation and Amortization
Real estate costs related to the acquisition and improvement of properties are capitalized and amortized over the expected useful life of the asset on a straight-line basis. Repair and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred and significant replacements and betterments are capitalized. Repair and maintenance costs include all costs that do not extend the useful life of the real estate asset. We considered the period of future benefit of an asset to determine its appropriate useful life. Expenditures for tenant improvements are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the tenant’s lease term or expected useful life. We estimated useful lives of our assets by class to be generally as follows:
LandN/A
Buildings25-40 years
Building improvements10-25 years
Tenant improvementsShorter of lease term or expected useful life
Tenant origination and absorption costsRemaining term of related leases, including below-market renewal periods


Impairment of Real Estate and Related Intangible Assets and Liabilities
We continually monitored events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of our real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable or realized. When indicators of potential impairment suggested that the carrying value of real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable, we assessed the recoverability by estimating whether we would recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities through its undiscounted future cash flows and its eventual disposition. If, based on this analysis, we did not believe that we would be able to recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities, we recorded an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities.
59


Table of Contents
Projecting future cash flows involves estimating expected future operating income and expenses related to the real estate and its related intangible assets and liabilities as well as market and other trends. Using inappropriate assumptions to estimate cash flows or the expected hold period until the eventual disposition could result in incorrect conclusions on recoverability and incorrect fair values of the real estate and its related intangible assets and liabilities and could result in the overstatement of the carrying values of our real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities and an overstatement of our net income.
Rents and Other Receivables
Liquidation Basis of Accounting
In accordance with the liquidation basis of accounting, as of February 1, 2020, rents and other receivables were adjusted to their net realizable value. We periodically evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants. Any changes in the collectibility of the receivables are reflected as a change to our net assets in liquidation.
Going Concern Basis
We made a determination of whether the collectibility of the lease payments in our operating leases was probable. If we determined the lease payments were not probable of collection, we fully reserved for any outstanding rent receivables related to contractual lease payments and variable leases payments, wrote-off any deferred rent receivable and recognized rental income only if cash was received. We exercised judgment in assessing collectibility and considered payment history, current credit status, the tenant’s financial condition, security deposits, letters of credit, lease guarantees and current market conditions that may impact the tenant’s ability to make payments in accordance with its lease agreements in making the determination.
Accrued Liquidation Costs
We accrue for certain estimated liquidation costs to the extent we have a reasonable basis for estimation. These consist of legal fees, dissolution costs, final audit/tax costs, insurance, and distribution processing costs.
Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. To continue to qualify as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income to stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute as dividends to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless the Internal Revenue Service grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially and adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, we believe that we are organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT.

Subsequent Events
We evaluate subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.
Updated Estimated Value Per Share
On March 11, 2021, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $2.07 based on our net assets in liquidation, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of December 31, 2020. For a description of the methodologies and assumptions used in the determination of the estimated value per share, see Part II, Item 5, “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Market Information” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Share Redemption Program
Our share redemption program provides only for redemptions that qualify as Special Redemptions. In accordance with our share redemption program, these Special Redemptions are made at a price per share equal to our most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date, provided that if our board of directors has declared liquidating distributions on such share with a record date prior to the applicable redemption date for such share and the most recent estimated value per share has not been updated to reflect the reduction for such liquidating distributions, then the redemption price per share will be reduced to reflect the amount of such liquidating distributions. The redemption price per share of our common stock eligible for redemption on the March 31, 2021 redemption date will equal $2.07. We will report future redemption prices in a Current Report on Form 8-K or in our annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the SEC.

ITEM 7A. 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 portfolio and to fund our operations. Our profitability and the value of our 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.
The table below summarizes the outstanding principal balance and the interest rates of our notes payable based on the maturity dates, all as of December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands):
Maturity DateTotal Book Value
2021202220232024
Liabilities
Notes payable, principal outstanding
Variable Rate$145,170 $— $95,350 $— $240,520 
Effective interest rate (1)
1.6 %— 1.8 %— 1.7 %
_____________________
(1) The effective interest rate represents the actual interest rate in effect as of December 31, 2020, using interest rate indices as of December 31, 2020, where applicable.
As of December 31, 2020, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $240.5 million of variable rate debt outstanding. 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. Based on interest rates as of December 31, 2020, if interest rates were 100 basis points higher or lower during the 12 months ending December 31, 2021, interest expense on our variable rate debt would increase or decrease by $2.4 million.
For a discussion of the interest rate risks related to the current capital and credit markets, see Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
In connection with the preparation of our Form 10-K, our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. In making that assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013).
Based on its assessment, our management believes that, as of December 31, 2020, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Other Matters
In connection with the adoption of liquidation basis accounting, during the first quarter of 2020 (i) certain of our internal controls over financial reporting became no longer relevant primarily relating to asset impairments and (ii) we adopted additional internal controls over financial reporting primarily with respect to the calculations of our asset values for liquidation basis accounting purposes.

Corporate Governance
The Audit Committee
Our board of directors has established an audit committee. The audit committee’s function is to assist the board of directors in fulfilling its responsibilities by overseeing (i) our accounting and financial reporting processes, (ii) the integrity of our financial statements, (iii) our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications, performance and independence, and (iv) the performance of our internal audit function. The audit committee fulfills these responsibilities primarily by carrying out the activities enumerated in the audit committee charter. The audit committee charter is available on our website at www.kbsreitii.com.
The members of the audit committee are Jeffrey A. Dritley, Stuart A. Gabriel, Ph.D.(chair) and Ron D. Sturzenegger. The board of directors has determined that all of the members of the audit committee are “independent” as defined by the New York Stock Exchange. All of the members of the audit committee have significant financial and/or accounting experience, and the board of directors has determined that all of the members of the audit committee satisfy the SEC’s requirements for an “audit committee financial expert.”
Code of Conduct and Ethics
We have adopted a Code of Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our executive officers and directors, including but not limited to, our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. Our Code of Conduct and Ethics can be found at www.kbsreitii.com.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation of Executive Officers
Our conflicts committee, which is composed of all of our independent directors, discharges our board of directors’ responsibilities relating to the compensation of our executives. However, we currently do not have any paid employees and our executive officers do not receive any compensation directly from us for services rendered to us. Our executive officers are officers and/or employees of, or hold an indirect ownership interest in, our advisor and/or its affiliates, and our executive officers are compensated by these entities, in part, for their services to us or our subsidiaries. See Part III, Item 13, “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence — Report of the Conflicts Committee — Certain Transactions with Related Persons” for a discussion of the fees paid to our advisor and its affiliates.
Compensation of Directors
If a director is also one of our executive officers, we do not pay any compensation to that person for services rendered as a director. The amount and form of compensation payable to our independent directors for their service to us is determined by the conflicts committee, based upon recommendations from our advisor. One of our executive officers, Mr. Schreiber, manages and controls our advisor, and through our advisor, he is involved in recommending and setting the compensation to be paid to our independent directors.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Director Independence
A majority of our board of directors, Messrs. Dritley, Gabriel and Sturzenegger, meet the independence criteria as specified in our charter. Our charter defines an independent director as a director who is not and has not for the last two years been associated, directly or indirectly, with our sponsor, KBS Holdings, or our advisor, KBS Capital Advisors. A director is deemed to be associated with our sponsor or our advisor if he or she (i) owns an interest in our sponsor, our advisor or any of their affiliates; (ii) is employed by our sponsor, our advisor or any of their affiliates; (iii) is an officer or director of our sponsor, our advisor or any of their affiliates, (iv) performs services, other than as a director, for us; (v) is a director for more than three REITs organized by our sponsor or advised by our advisor; or (vi) has any material business or professional relationship with our sponsor, our advisor or any of their affiliates. A business or professional relationship will be deemed material per se if the annual gross revenue derived by the director from our sponsor, our advisor or any of their affiliates (excluding fees for serving as an independent director of us or other REIT or real estate program advised or managed by our advisor or its affiliates) exceeds 5% of (1) the director’s annual gross revenue derived from all sources during either of the last two years or (2) the director’s net worth on a fair market value basis. An indirect relationship is defined to include circumstances in which the director’s spouse, parents, children, siblings, mothers- or fathers-in-law, sons- or daughters-in-law or brothers- or sisters-in-law is or has been associated with us, our sponsor, our advisor or any of their affiliates.
In addition, and although our shares are not listed for trading on any national securities exchange, all of our current independent directors are “independent” as defined by the New York Stock Exchange. The board of directors has affirmatively determined that Jeffrey A. Dritley, Stuart A. Gabriel, Ph.D. and Ron D. Sturzenegger each satisfies the New York Stock Exchange independence standards.
Report of the Conflicts Committee
Review of Our Policies
The conflicts committee has reviewed our policies and determined that they are in the best interest of our stockholders. Set forth below is a discussion of the basis for that determination.
69


Table of Contents
Disposition, Portfolio Management and Distribution Policies during Implementation of the Plan of Liquidation. In accordance with the Plan of Liquidation, our objectives are to pursue an orderly liquidation of our company by selling all of our remaining assets, paying our debts and our known liabilities, providing for the payment of unknown or contingent liabilities, distributing the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders and winding up our operations and dissolving our company. While pursuing our liquidation pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, we intend to continue to manage our portfolio of assets to maintain and, if possible, improve the quality and income-producing ability of our properties to enhance property stability and better position our remaining assets for sale.
We expect to distribute substantially all of the net proceeds from liquidation to our stockholders within 24 months from March 5, 2020. Pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, on March 5, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Initial Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.75 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2020. On July 31, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Second Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.25 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2020, and on December 24, 2020, our board of directors authorized the Third Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.40 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 24, 2020. See Part II, Item 5, “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities — Distribution Information.” We expect to continue to pay liquidating distribution payments to our stockholders through the completion of our liquidation process and to pay the final liquidating distribution after we sell all of our assets, pay all of our known liabilities and provide for unknown liabilities. However, if we cannot sell our assets and pay our debts within 24 months from March 5, 2020, or if the board of directors and the Special Committee determine that it is otherwise advisable to do so, pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, we may transfer and assign our remaining assets to a liquidating trust. Upon such transfer and assignment, our stockholders will receive beneficial interests in the liquidating trust.
Our expectations about the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation and the amount of any additional liquidating distributions that we will pay to our stockholders and when we will pay them are subject to risks and uncertainties and are based on certain estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, the actual amount of any additional liquidating distributions we pay to stockholders may be more or less than we estimate and the liquidating distributions may be paid later than we predict. There are many factors that may affect the amount of liquidating distributions we will ultimately pay to our stockholders. If we underestimate our existing obligations and liabilities or the amount of taxes, transaction fees and expenses relating to the liquidation and dissolution, or if unanticipated or contingent liabilities arise, the amount of liquidating distributions ultimately paid to our stockholders could be less than estimated. Moreover, the liquidation value will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to individual assets in our portfolio and the management of those assets, in response to the real estate and finance markets, based on the actual liquidation timing and the amount of net proceeds received from the disposition of the remaining assets and due to other factors. Given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, our implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by our stockholders. While we have considered the impact from COVID-19 in our net assets in liquidation presented on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets as of December 31, 2020, the extent to which our business may be affected by COVID-19 depends on future developments with respect to the continued spread and treatment of the virus, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures. Any long-term impact of this situation, even after an economic rebound, remains unclear. See Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Market Outlook — Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets — COVID-19 Pandemic and Portfolio Outlook” for a discussion of the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on our business and our liquidation. We can give no assurance regarding the timing of asset dispositions in connection with the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, the sale prices we will receive for our assets, and the amount or timing of liquidating distributions to be received by our stockholders.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, we sold two office properties and four office buildings that were part of an office campus. As of December 31, 2020, our portfolio of real estate properties was composed of four office properties and an office building that is part of an office campus.

Borrowing Policies. In order to execute our investment strategy, we primarily utilized secured debt to finance a portion of our investment portfolio. We have also used debt financing to pay for capital improvements or repairs to properties; to refinance existing indebtedness; to pay distributions; to provide working capital and for other liquidity needs. 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 this 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 January 31, 2021, our borrowings and other liabilities were approximately 37% of both the cost (before deducting depreciation and other noncash reserves) and book value (before deducting depreciation) of our tangible assets, respectively.
Policy Regarding Working Capital Reserves. We establish an annual budget for capital requirements and working capital reserves that we update periodically during the year. We may use cash on hand, proceeds from asset sales, debt proceeds and cash flow from operations to meet our needs for working capital for the upcoming year and to build a moderate level of cash reserves.
Policy Regarding Transactions with Related Persons. Our charter requires the conflicts committee to review and approve all transactions between us and our advisor, any of our officers or directors or any of their affiliates. Prior to entering into a transaction with a related party, a majority of the conflicts committee must conclude that the transaction is fair and reasonable to us. In addition, our Code of Conduct and Ethics lists examples of types of transactions with related parties that would create prohibited conflicts of interest and requires our officers and directors to be conscientious of actual and potential conflicts of interest with respect to our interests and to seek to avoid such conflicts or handle such conflicts in an ethical manner at all times consistent with applicable law. Our executive officers and directors are required to report potential and actual conflicts to the Compliance Officer, currently our advisor’s Chief Audit Executive, via the Ethics Hotline or directly to the audit committee chair, as appropriate.
Certain Transactions with Related Persons. The conflicts committee has reviewed the material transactions between our affiliates and us since the beginning of 2020 as well as any such currently proposed material transactions. Set forth below is a description of such transactions and the conflicts committee’s report on their fairness.
We have entered into agreements with certain affiliates pursuant to which they provide services to us. All of our executive officers and our affiliated director are also officers, directors, managers, or key professionals of and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor and other affiliated KBS entities. Charles J. Schreiber, Jr. is the Chairman of our Board, our Chief Executive Officer, our President and our affiliated director. Our advisor is owned and controlled by KBS Holdings, our sponsor. Charles J. Schreiber, Jr. indirectly controls our sponsor and our advisor.

Our Relationship with KBS Capital Advisors. Since our inception, our advisor has provided day-to-day management of our business. Among the services that are provided or have been provided by our advisor under the terms of the advisory agreement are the following:
finding, presenting and recommending to us real estate and real estate-related investment opportunities consistent with our investment policies and objectives;
structuring the terms and conditions of our investments, sales and joint ventures;
acquiring properties and other investments on our behalf in compliance with our investment objectives and policies;
sourcing and structuring our loan originations and acquisitions;
arranging for financing and refinancing of our properties and our other investments;
entering into leases and service contracts for our properties;
supervising and evaluating each property manager’s performance;
reviewing and analyzing the properties’ operating and capital budgets;
assisting us in obtaining insurance;
generating an annual budget for us;
reviewing and analyzing financial information for each of our assets and our overall portfolio;
formulating and overseeing the implementation of strategies for the administration, promotion, management, operation, maintenance, improvement, financing and refinancing, marketing, leasing and disposition of our properties and other investments;
performing investor-relations services;
maintaining our accounting and other records and assisting us in filing all reports required to be filed with the SEC, the IRS and other regulatory agencies;
engaging in and supervising the performance of our agents, including our registrar and transfer agent; and
performing any other services reasonably requested by us.
Our advisor is subject to the supervision of the board of directors and only has such authority as we may delegate to it as our agent. The advisory agreement has a term expiring May 21, 2021, subject to an unlimited number of successive one-year renewals upon the mutual consent of the parties. From January 1, 2020 through the most recent date practicable, which was January 31, 2021, we compensated our advisor as set forth below.
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. In the case of investments made through joint ventures, the asset management fee is determined based on our proportionate share of the underlying investment. With respect to investments in loans and any investments other than real estate, we paid 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 included any portion of the investment that was debt financed and was 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. Asset management fees from January 1, 2020 through January 31, 2021 totaled approximately $7.1 million, of which $0.5 million was payable as of January 31, 2021.

Table of Contents
Under the advisory agreement, our advisor and its affiliates have the right to seek reimbursement from us for all costs and expenses they incur in connection with their provision of services to us, including our allocable share of our advisor’s overhead, such as rent, employee costs, utilities, accounting software and cybersecurity costs. We reimburse our advisor for our allocable portion of the salaries, benefits and overhead of internal audit department personnel providing services to us. In the future, our advisor may seek reimbursement for additional employee costs. However, we will not reimburse our advisor or its affiliates for employee costs in connection with services for which our advisor earns acquisition, origination or disposition fees (other than reimbursement of travel and communication expenses) or for the salaries and benefits our advisor or its affiliates may pay to our executive officers. From January 1, 2020 through January 31, 2021, we incurred $426,000 of operating expenses reimbursable to our advisor, including $313,000 of our allocable portion of the salaries, benefits and overhead of internal audit department personnel providing services to us, of which $49,000 was payable as of January 31, 2021. We also reimburse our advisor for certain of our direct costs incurred from third parties that were initially paid by our advisor on our behalf.
For substantial assistance in connection with the sale of properties or other investments, we pay our advisor or its affiliates 1.0% of the contract sales price of each property or other investment sold; provided, however, in no event may aggregate disposition fees paid to our advisor, its affiliates and unaffiliated third parties exceed 6.0% of the contract sales price. From January 1, 2020 through January 31, 2021, we incurred $4.7 million of disposition fees, all of which had been paid as of January 31, 2021.
The conflicts committee considers our relationship with our advisor during 2020 to be fair. The conflicts committee believes that the amounts payable to our advisor under the advisory agreement are similar to those paid by other publicly offered, unlisted, externally advised REITs and that this compensation is necessary in order for our advisor to provide the desired level of services to us and our stockholders.
Our Relationship with KBS Capital Markets Group. We have entered into a fee reimbursement agreement (the “AIP Reimbursement Agreement”) with KBS Capital Markets Group LLC, the entity that acted as our dealer manager (the “Dealer Manager”), pursuant to which we agreed to reimburse the Dealer Manager for certain fees and expenses it incurs for administering our participation in the DTCC Alternative Investment Product Platform with respect to certain accounts of our stockholders serviced through the platform. From January 1, 2020 through January 31, 2021, we incurred $48,000 of costs and expenses related to the AIP Reimbursement Agreement, of which $6,000 was payable as of January 31, 2021.
The conflicts committee believes that this arrangement with KBS Capital Markets Group is fair.
Insurance Program. As of January 1, 2020, we, together with KBS REIT III, KBS Growth & Income REIT, the Dealer Manager, our advisor and other KBS-affiliated entities, had entered into an errors and omissions and directors and officers liability insurance program where the lower tiers of such insurance coverage were shared. The cost of these lower tiers is allocated by our advisor and its insurance broker among each of the various entities covered by the program, and is billed directly to each entity. In June 2020, we renewed our participation in the program. The program is effective through June 30, 2021.
The conflicts committee believes this arrangement is fair.
During the year ended December 31, 2020 and from January 1, 2021 through January 31, 2021, no other transactions occurred between us and KBS REIT III, Pacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT (advisory agreement with KBS Capital Advisors terminated as of October 31, 2019 and dealer manager agreement with KBS Capital Markets Group terminated as of December 31, 2019), Pacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT II (advisory agreement with KBS Capital Advisors terminated as of October 31, 2019 and dealer manager agreement with KBS Capital Markets Group terminated as of December 31, 2019), KBS Growth & Income REIT, our advisor, the Dealer Manager or other KBS-affiliated entities.
On November 1, 2019, Pacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT and Pacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT II transferred the management of the companies to a new external advisor, Pacific Oak Capital Advisors LLC. The transfer of management allows our advisor to focus on its current core asset portfolios, while the Pacific Oak group of companies focuses primarily on its current opportunistic portfolios. Pacific Oak Capital Advisors, LLC is owned and managed by Keith D. Hall and Peter McMillan III. Together, through GKP Holding LLC, Messrs. Hall and McMillan continue to indirectly own a 33 1/3% interest in our advisor and the Dealer Manager.
Currently Proposed Transactions. There are no currently proposed material transactions with related persons other than those covered by the terms of the agreements described above.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
During the year ended December 31, 2020, Ernst & Young LLP (“Ernst & Young”) served as our independent registered public accounting firm and provided certain tax and other services. Ernst & Young has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since our formation.
Pre-Approval Policies
In order to ensure that the provision of such services does not impair the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence, the audit committee charter imposes a duty on the audit committee to pre-approve all auditing services performed for us by our independent registered public accounting firm, as well as all permitted non-audit services. In determining whether or not to pre-approve services, the audit committee considers whether the service is a permissible service under the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. The audit committee may, in its discretion, delegate to one or more of its members the authority to pre-approve any audit or non-audit services to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm, provided any such approval is presented to and approved by the full audit committee at its next scheduled meeting.
For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, all services rendered by Ernst & Young were pre-approved in accordance with the policies and procedures described above.
Principal Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Fees
The audit committee reviewed the audit and non-audit services performed by Ernst & Young, as well as the fees charged by Ernst & Young for such services. In its review of the non-audit service fees, the audit committee considered whether the provision of such services is compatible with maintaining the independence of Ernst & Young. The aggregate fees billed to us for professional accounting services, including the audit of our annual financial statements by Ernst & Young for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, are set forth in the table below.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of
KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from January 1, 2020 to January 31, 2020 and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the consolidated statement of net assets (liquidation basis) as of December 31, 2020, the related consolidated statement of changes in net assets (liquidation basis) for the period from February 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from January 1, 2020 to January 31, 2020 and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, its net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2020, and the changes in its net assets in liquidation for the period from February 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applied on the basis described below.
As described in Notes 2 and 3 to the financial statements, the stockholders of the Company approved a plan of liquidation and the Company has commenced liquidation. As a result, the Company has changed its basis of accounting for periods subsequent to January 31, 2020 from the going concern basis to a liquidation basis.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the account or disclosure to which it relates.

Liquidation value of real estate assets
Description of the Matter
The Company’s liquidation basis value of its real estate assets totaled $698.5 million as of December 31, 2020. As discussed in Notes 2 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted the liquidation basis of accounting on February 1, 2020. As a result of the adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting, the Company adjusted its investments in real estate to their estimated net realizable values, or liquidation values, which represents the estimated amount of cash that the Company expects to collect upon the disposal of its assets on an undiscounted basis. Management’s estimates of the liquidation value of the real estate assets were based on internal valuation methodologies using direct capitalization and discounted cash flow analyses and anticipated disposal dates of the assets, as well as consideration of purchase offers or contractual sales agreements and comparable market transactions.
Auditing management’s liquidation value of its real estate assets is challenging due to the high degree of subjective auditor judgment necessary in evaluating management’s estimates of liquidation values which are based on forecasted cash flow analyses to determine the estimated cash to be realized upon sale. The estimated future cash flows used in the cash flow analyses are based on significant assumptions, including, as applicable, market rental rates and leasing assumptions, estimated hold periods for individual properties, capitalization rates and discount rates that are forward looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
To test the Company’s real estate liquidation values, our audit procedures included, among others, evaluating the methodology and significant judgments used by management, including obtaining evidence to corroborate such judgments and searching for evidence contrary to such judgments. We held discussions with management about business plans for the assets and the judgments used in determining hold periods and cash flow estimates for the assets, and compared information used in the liquidation value estimates to information included in materials presented to the Company’s Board of Directors. We also compared the significant assumptions used by management as discussed above, to current industry and economic trends, observable market-specific data, and historical results of the properties, and involved our internal real estate valuation specialists to assist in our evaluation of significant assumptions for certain properties.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2020


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.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company owned four office properties and an office building that is part of an office campus.
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 entered into with the Advisor (the “Advisory Agreement”). The Advisory Agreement is effective through May 21, 2021 and 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.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had 184,299,500 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
On November 13, 2019, in connection with a review of potential strategic alternatives available to the Company, a special committee composed of all of the Company’s independent directors (the “Special Committee”) and the board of directors unanimously approved the sale of all of the Company’s assets and the dissolution of the Company pursuant to the terms of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution (the “Plan of Liquidation”). The principal purpose of the Plan of Liquidation is to provide liquidity to the Company’s stockholders by selling the Company’s assets, paying its debts and distributing the net proceeds from liquidation to the Company’s stockholders. On March 5, 2020, the Company’s stockholders approved the Plan of Liquidation. The Plan of Liquidation is included as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
COVID-19 Pandemic
One of the most significant risks and uncertainties facing the Company and the real estate industry generally continues to be the effect of the ongoing public health crisis of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) pandemic. The Company continues to closely monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of its business and its liquidation, including how the pandemic is affecting its tenants and the Company’s ability to sell its remaining real estate properties at the times and prices it expects. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company did not experience significant disruptions in its operations from the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company reduced the estimated liquidation value of its real estate portfolio by $90.2 million due to changes in leasing projections across its portfolio resulting in lower projected cash flow and projected sales prices caused by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of the Company’s tenants have experienced disruptions in their business, some more severely than others. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had granted rent relief to eight tenants as a result of the pandemic, but as the impact of the pandemic continues to be felt, these tenants or additional tenants may request rent relief in future periods or become unable to pay rent and therefore, the Company is unable to predict the ultimate impact the pandemic will have on its business and implementation of the Plan of Liquidation due to numerous uncertainties. The Company is evaluating each tenant rent relief request on an individual basis, considering a number of factors. Not all tenant requests will ultimately result in modified agreements, nor is the Company forgoing its contractual rights under its lease agreements. Further, significant reductions in rental revenue in the future related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may limit the Company’s ability to draw on its portfolio loan facility due to covenants described in the Company’s loan agreements.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s operations and those of its tenants and the Company’s implementation of the Plan of Liquidation depends on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others.

2. PLAN OF LIQUIDATION
The Plan of Liquidation authorizes the Company to undertake an orderly liquidation. In an orderly liquidation, the Company will sell all of its remaining properties, pay all of its known liabilities, provide for the payment of its unknown or contingent liabilities, distribute its remaining cash to its stockholders, wind up its operations and dissolve. The Company is authorized to provide for the payment of any unascertained or contingent liabilities and may do so by purchasing insurance, by establishing a reserve fund or in other ways.
The Plan of Liquidation enables the Company to sell any and all of its assets without further approval of its stockholders and provides that the amounts and timing of liquidating distributions will be determined by the Company’s board of directors or, if a liquidating trust is formed, by the trustees of the liquidating trust, in their discretion. Pursuant to applicable REIT rules, liquidating distributions the Company pays pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation will qualify for the dividends paid deduction, provided that they are paid within 24 months of the March 5, 2020 approval of the plan by the Company’s stockholders. However, if the Company cannot sell its properties and pay its debts within such time period, or if the board of directors and the Special Committee determine that it is otherwise advisable to do so, the Company may transfer and assign its remaining assets to a liquidating trust. Upon such transfer and assignment, the Company’s stockholders would receive beneficial interests in the liquidating trust. The liquidating trust would pay or provide for all of the Company’s liabilities and distribute any remaining net proceeds from liquidation to the holders of beneficial interests in the liquidating trust. If the Company is not able to sell its properties and pay its debt within the 24-month period and the remaining assets are not transferred to a liquidating trust, the distributions made during the 24 months may not qualify for the dividends paid deduction and may increase the Company’s tax liability.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
December 31, 2020
The Company’s expectations about the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation and the amount of any additional liquidating distributions that the Company pays to its stockholders and when the Company will pay them are subject to risks and uncertainties and are based on certain estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, the actual amount of any additional liquidating distributions the Company pays to its stockholders may be more or less than the Company estimates and the liquidating distributions may be paid later than the Company predicts. There are many factors that may affect the amount of liquidating distributions the Company will ultimately pay to its stockholders. If the Company underestimates its existing obligations and liabilities or the amount of taxes, transaction fees and expenses relating to the liquidation and dissolution or if unanticipated or contingent liabilities arise, the amount of liquidating distributions ultimately paid to the Company’s stockholders could be less than estimated. Moreover, the liquidation value will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to individual assets in the Company’s portfolio and the management of those assets, in response to the real estate and finance markets, based on the actual liquidation timing and the amount of net proceeds received from the disposition of the remaining assets and due to other factors. In particular, the outbreak of COVID-19, together with the resulting measures imposed to help control the spread of the virus, including quarantines, “shelter-in-place” and “stay-at-home” orders, travel restrictions, restrictions on businesses and school closures, has had a negative impact on the economy and business activity globally. As of December 31, 2020, tenants in the mining and oil and gas extraction industry represented approximately 18% of the Company’s base rent. Tenants in this sector have been adversely impacted by the reduced demand for oil as a result of the slowdown in economic activity resulting from the pandemic spread of COVID-19 and the collapse in oil prices. Many of the Company’s tenants have suffered reductions in revenue, and as of December 31, 2020, the Company had granted rent relief to eight tenants as a result of the pandemic. Depending upon the duration of the pandemic, the various measures imposed to help control the spread of the virus and the corresponding economic slowdown, these tenants or additional tenants may seek rent deferrals or abatements in future periods or become unable to pay their rent. While the Company has considered the impact from COVID-19 in its net assets in liquidation presented on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets as of December 31, 2020, the extent to which the Company’s business may be affected by COVID-19 depends on future developments with respect to the continued spread and treatment of the virus, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures. Any long-term impact of this situation, even after an economic rebound, remains unclear. Given the uncertainty and current business disruptions as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19, the Company’s implementation of the Plan of Liquidation may be materially and adversely impacted and this may have a material effect on the ultimate amount and timing of liquidating distributions received by stockholders. Accordingly, it is not possible to precisely predict the timing of any additional liquidating distributions the Company pays to it stockholders or the aggregate amount of liquidating distributions that the Company will ultimately pay to its stockholders. No assurance can be given that any additional liquidating distributions the Company pays to its stockholders will equal or exceed the estimate of net assets in liquidation presented on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets as of December 31, 2020.
The Company expects to comply with the requirements necessary to continue to qualify as a REIT through the completion of the liquidation process, or until such time as any remaining assets are transferred into a liquidating trust. The board of directors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to cause the Company to maintain its REIT status; provided, however, that the board of directors may elect to terminate the Company’s status as a REIT if it determines that such termination would be in the best interest of the stockholders.

Pursuant to the Company’s stockholders’ approval of the Plan of Liquidation, the Company adopted the liquidation basis of accounting as of and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020 (as the approval of the Plan of Liquidation by the Company’s stockholders became imminent within the first week of February 2020 based on the results of the Company’s solicitation of proxies from its stockholders for their approval of the Plan of Liquidation). Accordingly, on February 1, 2020, assets were adjusted to their estimated net realizable value, or liquidation value, which represents the estimated amount of cash that the Company will collect through the disposal of assets as it carries out the Plan of Liquidation. The liquidation values of the Company’s remaining real estate properties are presented on an undiscounted basis. Estimated costs to dispose of assets and estimated capital expenditures through the anticipated disposition date of the properties have been presented separately from the related assets. Liabilities are carried at their contractual amounts due or estimated settlement amounts.
The Company accrues costs and income that it expects to incur and earn through the completion of its liquidation, including the estimated amount of cash the Company expects to collect through the disposal of its assets and the estimated costs to dispose of its assets, to the extent it has a reasonable basis for estimation. These amounts are classified as a liability for estimated costs in excess of estimated receipts during liquidation on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets. Actual costs and income may differ from amounts reflected in the financial statements because of the inherent uncertainty in estimating future events. These differences may be material. See Note 2, “Plan of Liquidation” and Note 4, “Liabilities for Estimated Costs in Excess of Estimated Receipts During Liquidation” for further discussion. Actual costs incurred but unpaid as of December 31, 2020 are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to affiliates and other liabilities on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets.
Net assets in liquidation represents the remaining estimated liquidation value available to stockholders upon liquidation. Due to the uncertainty in the timing of the sale of the Company's remaining real estate properties and the estimated cash flows from operations, actual liquidation costs and sale proceeds may differ materially from the amounts estimated.
All financial results and disclosures through January 31, 2020, prior to the adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting, are presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liabilities in the normal course of business. As a result, the balance sheet as of December 31, 2019, the statements of operations, the statements of stockholders’ equity and the statements of cash flows for the month ended January 31, 2020 and the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 are presented using the going concern basis of accounting. Under the going concern basis of accounting, the Company’s consolidated financial statements included its accounts and the accounts of KBS REIT Holdings II, the Operating Partnership and their direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of prior periods. Upon adoption of the lease accounting standards of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019 (described below), the Company accounted for tenant reimbursements for property taxes, insurance and common area maintenance as variable lease payments and recorded these amounts as rental income on the statement of operations. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company reclassified $10.6 million of tenant reimbursement revenue for property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance to rental income for comparability purposes.

Revenue Recognition - Operating Leases
Liquidation Basis of Accounting
Under the liquidation basis of accounting, the Company has accrued all income that it expects to earn through the completion of its liquidation to the extent it has a reasonable basis for estimation. Revenue from tenants is estimated based on the contractual in-place leases and projected leases through the anticipated disposition date of the property. These amounts are classified in liabilities for estimated costs in excess of estimated receipts during liquidation on the Consolidated Statement of Net Assets.
Going Concern Basis
Real Estate
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the lease accounting standards under Topic 842 including the package of practical expedients for all leases that commenced before the effective date of January 1, 2019. Accordingly, the Company (i) did not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) did not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing lease, and (iii) did not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company did not elect the practical expedient related to using hindsight to reevaluate the lease term. In addition, the Company adopted the practical expedient for land easements and did not assess whether existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under the lease accounting standards of Topic 840 are or contain a lease under Topic 842.
In addition, Topic 842 provides an optional transition method to allow entities to apply the new lease accounting standards at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company adopted this transition method upon its adoption of the lease accounting standards of Topic 842, which did not result in a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on January 1, 2019. The Company’s comparative periods presented in the financial statements were reported under the lease accounting standards of Topic 840 until the Company’s adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting as of and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020.
In accordance with Topic 842, tenant reimbursements for property taxes and insurance were included in the single lease component of the lease contract (the right of the lessee to use the leased space) and therefore were accounted for as variable lease payments and were recorded as rental income on the Company’s statement of operations beginning January 1, 2019 until the Company’s adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting as of and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020. In addition, the Company adopted the practical expedient available under Topic 842 to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component and instead to account for those components as a single component if the nonlease components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue recognition standard (Topic 606) and if certain conditions are met, specifically related to tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance which would otherwise be accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The Company believes the two conditions have been met for tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance as (i) the timing and pattern of transfer of the nonlease components and associated lease components are the same and (ii) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease. Accordingly, tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance were also accounted for as variable lease payments and recorded as rental income on the Company’s statement of operations beginning January 1, 2019 until the Company’s adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting as of and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020.

December 31, 2020
Until the Company’s adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting as of and for the periods subsequent to February 1, 2020, the Company recognized minimum rent, including rental abatements, lease incentives and contractual fixed increases attributable to operating leases, on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases when collectibility was probable and recorded amounts expected to be received in later years as deferred rent receivable. If the lease provided for tenant improvements, the Company determined whether the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, were owned by the tenant or the Company. When the Company was the owner of the tenant improvements, the tenant was not considered to have taken physical possession or have control of the physical use of the leased asset until the tenant improvements were substantially completed. When the tenant was the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvement allowance (including amounts that can be taken in the form of cash or a credit against the tenant’s rent) that was funded was treated as a lease incentive and amortized as a reduction of rental revenue over the lease term. Tenant improvement ownership is determined based on various factors including, but not limited to:
whether the lease stipulates how a tenant improvement allowance may be spent;
whether the lessee or lessor supervises the construction and bears the risk of cost overruns;
whether the amount of a tenant improvement allowance is in excess of market rates;
whether the tenant or landlord retains legal title to the improvements at the end of the lease term;
whether the tenant improvements are unique to the tenant or general purpose in nature; and
whether the tenant improvements are expected to have any residual value at the end of the lease.
In accordance with Topic 842, the Company made a determination of whether the collectibility of the lease payments in an operating lease was probable. If the Company determined the lease payments were not probable of collection, the Company fully reserved for any contractual lease payments, deferred rent receivable, and variable lease payments and recognized rental income only if cash was received. Beginning January 1, 2019, these changes to the Company’s collectibility assessment were reflected as an adjustment to rental income. Prior to January 1, 2019, bad debt expense related to uncollectible accounts receivable and deferred rent receivable was included in operating, maintenance, and management expense in the statement of operations. Any subsequent changes to the collectibility of the allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2018, which was recorded prior to the adoption of Topic 842, were recorded in operating, maintenance, and management expense in the statement of operations.
Beginning January 1, 2019, the Company, as a lessor, recorded costs to negotiate or arrange a lease that would have been incurred regardless of whether the lease was obtained, such as legal costs incurred to negotiate an operating lease, as an expense and classified such costs as operating, maintenance, and management expense on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations, as these costs were no longer capitalizable under the definition of initial direct costs under Topic 842.
Sales of Real Estate
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the guidance of ASC 610-20, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (“ASC 610-20”), which applies to sales or transfers to noncustomers of nonfinancial assets or in substance nonfinancial assets that do not meet the definition of a business. Generally, the Company’s sales of real estate would be considered a sale of a nonfinancial asset as defined by ASC 610-20.
ASC 610-20 refers to the revenue recognition principles under ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Under ASC 610-20, if the Company determined it did not have a controlling financial interest in the entity that held the asset and the arrangement met the criteria to be accounted for as a contract, the Company derecognized the asset and recognized a gain or loss on the sale of the real estate when control of the underlying asset transferred to the buyer.
Real Estate Loan Receivable
Interest income on the Company’s real estate loan receivable was recognized on an accrual basis over the life of the investment using the interest method. Direct loan origination fees and origination or acquisition costs, as well as acquisition premiums or discounts, were amortized over the term of the loan as an adjustment to interest income.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company recognized interest income on its cash and cash equivalents as it was earned and classified such amounts as other interest income.

Liquidation Basis of Accounting
As of February 1, 2020, the Company’s investments in real estate were adjusted to their estimated net realizable value, or liquidation value, to reflect the change to the liquidation basis of accounting. The liquidation value represents the estimated amount of cash that the Company will collect through the disposal of its assets, including any residual value attributable to lease intangibles, as it carries out the Plan of Liquidation. As of December 31, 2020, the Company estimated the liquidation value of its investments in real estate based on internal valuation methodologies using a combination of the direct capitalization approach, sales comparison approach and discounted cash flow analyses and relied primarily on discounted cash flow analyses for the estimated liquidation value for each of the four office properties and relied on a sales comparison approach for the office building that is part of an office campus, which was vacant. The liquidation values of the Company’s investments in real estate are presented on an undiscounted basis and investments in real estate are no longer depreciated. Estimated costs to dispose of these investments are carried at their contractual amounts due or estimated settlement amounts and are presented separately from the related assets. Subsequent to February 1, 2020, all changes in the estimated liquidation value of the investments in real estate are reflected as a change to the Company’s net assets in liquidation.
Going Concern Basis
Depreciation and Amortization
Real estate costs related to the acquisition and improvement of properties are capitalized and amortized over the expected useful life of the asset on a straight-line basis. Repair and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred and significant replacements and betterments are capitalized. Repair and maintenance costs include all costs that do not extend the useful life of the real estate asset. The Company considered the period of future benefit of an asset to determine its appropriate useful life. Expenditures for tenant improvements are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the tenant’s lease term or expected useful life. The Company estimated useful lives of its assets by class to be generally as follows:
LandN/A
Buildings
25-40 years
Building improvements
10-25 years
Tenant improvementsShorter of lease term or expected useful life
Tenant origination and absorption costsRemaining term of related leases, including below-market renewal periods

Impairment of Real Estate and Related Intangible Assets and Liabilities
The Company continually monitored events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable or realized. When indicators of potential impairment suggested that the carrying value of real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable, the Company assessed the recoverability by estimating whether the Company would recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities through its undiscounted future cash flows and its eventual disposition. If, based on this analysis, the Company did not believe that it would be able to recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities, the Company recorded an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considered all short-term (with an original maturity of three months or less), highly-liquid investments utilized as part of the Company’s cash-management activities to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents may include cash and short-term investments. Short-term investments were stated at cost, which approximates fair value.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance exceeds federally insurable limits as of December 31, 2020. The Company monitors the cash balances in its operating accounts and adjusts the cash balances as appropriate; however, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail or are subject to other adverse conditions in the financial markets. To date, the Company has experienced no loss or lack of access to cash in its operating accounts.

Restricted Cash
Restricted cash was comprised of lender impound reserve accounts on the Company’s borrowings for capital improvements and replacements.
Rents and Other Receivables
Liquidation Basis of Accounting
In accordance with the liquidation basis of accounting, as of February 1, 2020, rents and other receivables were adjusted to their net realizable value. The Company periodically evaluates the collectibility of amounts due from tenants. Any changes in the collectibility of the receivables are reflected as a change to the Company’s net assets in liquidation.
Going Concern Basis
The Company made a determination of whether the collectibility of the lease payments in its operating leases was probable. If the Company determined the lease payments were not probable of collection, the Company fully reserved for any outstanding rent receivables related to contractual lease payments and variable leases payments, wrote-off any deferred rent receivable and recognized rental income only if cash was received. The Company exercised judgment in assessing collectibility and considered payment history, current credit status, the tenant’s financial condition, security deposits, letters of credit, lease guarantees and current market conditions that may impact the tenant’s ability to make payments in accordance with its lease agreements in making the determination.
Accrued Liquidation Costs
In accordance with the liquidation basis of accounting, the Company accrues for certain estimated liquidation costs to the extent it has a reasonable basis for estimation. These consist of legal fees, dissolution costs, final audit/tax costs, insurance, and distribution processing costs.
Deferred Financing Costs
Prior to the adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting, deferred financing costs represented commitment fees, loan fees, legal fees and other third-party costs associated with obtaining financing and were presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability. These costs were amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs were generally expensed when the associated debt was refinanced or repaid before maturity unless specific rules were met that would allow for the carryover of such costs to the refinanced debt. Deferred financing costs incurred before an associated debt liability was recognized were included in prepaid and other assets on the balance sheet. Costs incurred in seeking financing transactions that did not close were expensed in the period in which it was determined that the financing would not close.

Redeemable Common Stock
The Company has a share redemption program pursuant to which stockholders may sell their shares to the Company only in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined in the share redemption program and, together with redemptions sought in connection with a stockholder’s death, “Special Redemptions”). Such redemptions are subject to the limitations described in the share redemption program document, including:
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 the Company’s stockholders. The Company may provide notice by including such information (a) in a Current Report on Form 8-K or in its annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the SEC or (b) in a separate mailing to its stockholders. The dollar limitation for calendar year 2020 was $10.0 million. On December 24, 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved the same annual dollar amount limitation for Special Redemptions for calendar year 2021 of $10.0 million in the aggregate, as may be reviewed and adjusted from time to time by the board of directors.
During any calendar year, the Company may redeem no more than 5% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year.
The Company has 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 the Company cannot repurchase all shares presented for redemption in any month because of the limitations on redemptions set forth in the Company’s share redemption program, then it 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 the Company’s currently effective, or its most recently effective, registration statement as such registration statement has been amended or supplemented, then the Company would redeem all of such stockholder’s shares.
The Company does not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future.
In connection with the approval by the Company’s stockholders of the Plan of Liquidation, on March 5, 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved the Tenth Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program (the “Amended Share Redemption Program”). The Amended Share Redemption Program became effective on March 20, 2020.
Prior to effectiveness of the Amended Share Redemption Program, the redemption price for redemptions made in connection with a Special Redemption was equal to the most recent estimated value per share of the Company’s common stock as of the redemption date. On November 13, 2019, the Company’s board of directors approved an estimated value per share of the Company’s common stock of $3.79 (unaudited) based on the estimated value of the Company’s assets less the estimated value of the Company’s liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2019, except for certain items for which estimated values were adjusted subsequent to September 30, 2019. The change in redemption price became effective for the November 2019 redemption date, which was November 29, 2019, and was effective through the February 2020 redemption date, which was February 28, 2020.

The Amended Share Redemption Program changed the redemption price per share of the Company’s common stock eligible for Special Redemptions to take into account the estimated range of liquidating distributions as disclosed in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement, filed with the SEC on December 9, 2019, and any liquidating distributions declared by the Company’s board of directors. The Amended Share Redemption Program set the redemption price per share of the Company’s common stock eligible for redemption at (a) $3.615 (which represents the mid-point of the estimated range of liquidating distributions of $3.40 to $3.83 per share) less (b) the amount of any liquidating distributions on such share declared by the Company’s board of directors that have a record date prior to the applicable redemption date for such share. Pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, on March 5, 2020, the Company’s board of directors authorized an initial liquidating distribution on the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2020 (the “Initial Liquidating Distribution”) with the amount per share of the Initial Liquidating Distribution equal to $0.75. The Initial Liquidating Distribution was paid on March 10, 2020. Therefore, effective commencing with the March 31, 2020 redemption date, the redemption price for all shares eligible for redemption was equal to $2.87, which was effective through the May 29, 2020 redemption date.
On June 15, 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved an updated estimated value per share of the Company’s common stock of $2.66, effective June 9, 2020 (the “June 2020 Estimated Value Per Share”). In connection with the approval of the June 2020 Estimated Value Per Share, on June 15, 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved the Eleventh Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program (the “11th Amended Share Redemption Program”), which became effective on June 30, 2020. The 11th Amended Share Redemption Program sets the redemption price per share of the Company’s common stock eligible for redemption at the Company’s most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date, provided that if the Company’s board of directors has declared liquidating distributions on such share with a record date prior to the applicable redemption date for such share and the most recent estimated value per share has not been updated to reflect the reduction for such liquidating distributions, then the redemption price per share will be reduced to reflect the amount of such liquidating distributions. Thus, effective commencing with the June 30, 2020 redemption date, the redemption price for all shares eligible for redemption was equal to $2.66, which was effective through the July 31, 2020 redemption date.
On July 31, 2020, in connection with the authorization of a second liquidating distribution in the amount of $0.25 per share of common stock to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2020 (the “Second Liquidating Distribution”), the Company’s board of directors approved an updated estimated value per share of Company’s common stock of $2.41, effective August 7, 2020. Therefore, effective commencing with the August 31, 2020 redemption date, the redemption price for all shares eligible for redemption was equal to $2.41, which was effective through the November 30, 2020 redemption date.
On December 24, 2020, in connection with the authorization of a third liquidating distribution in the amount of $0.40 per share of common stock to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 24, 2020 (the “Third Liquidating Distribution”), the Company’s board of directors approved an updated estimated value per share of the Company’s common stock of $2.01, effective December 30, 2020. Therefore, effective commencing with the December 31, 2020 redemption date, the redemption price for all shares eligible for redemption was equal to $2.01 and was effective until the redemption price was updated on March 11, 2021. See Note 11, “Subsequent Events.”
The Company may amend, suspend or terminate the share redemption program for any reason upon ten business days’ notice to stockholders. The Company may provide this notice by including such information (a) in a Current Report on Form 8-K or in its annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the SEC or (b) in a separate mailing to stockholders.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company redeemed 1,002,536 shares for $2.7 million, which represented all redemption requests received in good order and eligible for redemption as Special Redemptions under the share redemption program through the December 2020 redemption date.

Going Concern Basis
The Company recorded amounts that were redeemable under the share redemption program as redeemable common stock in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet because the shares were mandatorily redeemable at the option of the holder and therefore their redemption was outside the control of the Company. Pursuant to the share redemption program, effective for redemptions on or after June 18, 2014, the maximum amount redeemable under the Company’s share redemption program is limited to an annual dollar amount determined by Company’s board of directors, as described above. However, because the amounts that can be redeemed in future periods are determinable and only contingent on an event that is likely to occur (e.g., the passage of time), the Company presented the amounts available for future redemptions in future periods as redeemable common stock in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company classified financial instruments that represented a mandatory obligation of the Company to redeem shares as liabilities. The Company’s redeemable common shares are contingently redeemable at the option of the holder. When the Company determined it had a mandatory obligation to redeem shares under the share redemption program, it reclassified such obligations from temporary equity to a liability based upon their respective settlement values.
Related Party Transactions
The Company has entered into the Advisory Agreement with the Advisor. This agreement entitles the Advisor to specified fees upon the provision of certain services with regard to the management of the Company’s investments, among other services, and the disposition of investments, as well as reimbursement of certain costs incurred by the Advisor in providing services to the Company.

Asset Management Fee
With respect to investments in real estate, the Company pays the 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. In the case of investments made through joint ventures, the asset management fee will be determined based on the Company’s proportionate share of the underlying investment.
With respect to investments in loans and any investments other than real estate, the Company paid the Advisor a monthly 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 included any portion of the investment that was debt financed and was 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.
With respect to an investment that has suffered an impairment in value, reduction in cash flow or other negative circumstances, such investment may either be excluded from the calculation of the asset management fee described above or included in such calculation at a reduced value that is recommended by the Advisor and the Company’s management and then approved by a majority of the Company’s independent directors, and this change in the fee will be applicable to an investment upon the earlier to occur of the date on which (i) such investment is sold, (ii) such investment is surrendered to a person other than the Company, its direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary or a joint venture or partnership in which the Company has an interest, (iii) the Advisor determines that it will no longer pursue collection or other remedies related to such investment, or (iv) the Advisor recommends a revised fee arrangement with respect to such investment. As of December 31, 2020, the Company has not determined to calculate the asset management fee at an adjusted value for any investments or to exclude any investments from the calculation of the asset management fee.
Disposition Fee
For substantial assistance in connection with the sale of properties or other investments, the Company pays the Advisor or its affiliates 1.0% of the contract sales price of each property or other investment sold; provided, however, in no event may the disposition fees paid to Advisor, its affiliates and unaffiliated third parties exceed 6.0% of the contract sales price.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To continue to qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of the Company’s annual REIT taxable income to stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that it distributes as dividends to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless the Internal Revenue Service grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially and adversely affect the Company’s net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, the Company believes that it is organized and operates in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT.
The Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements. Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries have been assessed interest or penalties by any major tax jurisdictions. The Company’s evaluations were performed for all open tax years through December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, returns for the calendar years 2016 through 2019 remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions.
Per Share Data
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock was 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 equaled basic net income (loss) per share of common stock as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the month ended January 31, 2020 and the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

4. LIABILITIES FOR ESTIMATED COSTS IN EXCESS OF ESTIMATED RECEIPTS DURING LIQUIDATION
The liquidation basis of accounting requires the Company to estimate net cash flows from operations and to accrue all costs associated with implementing and completing the Plan of Liquidation. As of December 31, 2020, the Company estimated that it will have costs in excess of estimated receipts during the liquidation process. These amounts can vary significantly due to, among other things, the timing and estimates for executing and renewing leases, estimates of tenant improvement costs and capital expenditures, the timing of property sales, direct costs incurred to complete the sales, the timing and amounts associated with discharging known and contingent liabilities and the costs associated with the winding down of operations. These costs are estimated and are anticipated to be paid out over the liquidation period.
Upon transition to the liquidation basis of accounting on February 1, 2020, the Company accrued the following revenues and expenses expected to be incurred during liquidation (in thousands):

Pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, from February 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, the Company’s board of directors authorized three liquidating distributions as follows, which were the largest component of the decline in net assets in liquidation:
On March 5, 2020, the Company’s board of directors authorized the Initial Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.75 per share of common stock to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2020, for an aggregate cash distribution of approximately $138.9 million. The Initial Liquidating Distribution was paid on March 10, 2020 and was funded with proceeds from the sale of the Campus Drive Buildings.
On July 31, 2020, the Company’s board of directors authorized the Second Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.25 per share of common stock to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2020, for an aggregate cash distribution of approximately $46.2 million.

On December 24, 2020, the Company’s board of directors authorized the Third Liquidating Distribution in the amount of $0.40 per share of common stock to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 24, 2020, for an aggregate cash distribution of approximately $73.7 million. The Third Liquidating Distribution was paid on December 30, 2020 and was funded with proceeds from the sale of two office buildings in Corporate Technology Centre - 250 Holger and 350 Holger.

December 31, 2020
The estimated net realizable value of real estate decreased by $90.2 million during the 11 months ended December 31, 2020, which was primarily driven by the Company’s investment in an office building located in Los Angeles, California (the “Union Bank Plaza”) and an office property located in Denver, Colorado (“Granite Tower”), as follows:
Union Bank Plaza –The estimated net proceeds from the sale of the Union Bank Plaza decreased by approximately $57.5 million primarily due to changes in leasing projections and related capital investments to account for a longer lease-up period and lower projected rental rates caused by COVID-19. As of December 31, 2020, the Union Bank Plaza was 72% leased and due to the amount of vacancy, its valuation or projected sales price is more sensitive to the disruption caused by COVID-19 as compared to a fully stabilized property. Additionally, the valuation or projected sales price was adjusted to increase the terminal capitalization rates and discount rate to account for the increased risk and uncertainty in the current environment.
Granite Tower – The estimated net proceeds from the sale of Granite Tower decreased by approximately $24.3 million due to changes in leasing projections and related capital investments to account for a longer lease-up period and lower projected rental rates caused by COVID-19. Granite Tower is further impacted by the deteriorating oil and gas industry as its anchor tenant that occupies approximately 50% of the building square footage as of December 31, 2020 is engaged in the exploration and production of oil and gas. The valuation or projected sales price was adjusted to increase the terminal capitalization rates and discount rate to account for the increased risk and uncertainty in the current environment caused by COVID-19 and the deteriorating oil and gas industry. As of December 31, 2020, Granite Tower was 82% leased.
Other Properties – The estimated net proceeds from the sales of the Company’s other real estate properties were adjusted to increase the terminal capitalization rates and discount rates to account for the increased risk and uncertainty caused by COVID-19 resulting in a net reduction in the aggregate estimated net proceeds from sales of $8.4 million.
The net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2020 would result in the payment of additional estimated liquidating distributions of approximately $2.07 per share of common stock to the Company’s stockholders of record as of December 31, 2020. This estimate of additional liquidating distributions includes projections of costs and expenses to be incurred during the estimated period required to complete the Plan of Liquidation. There is inherent uncertainty with these estimates and projections, and they could change materially based on the timing of the sales of the Company’s remaining real estate properties, the performance of the Company’s remaining assets and any changes in the underlying assumptions of the projected cash flows from such properties. See Note 2, “Plan of Liquidation.”

6. REAL ESTATE
As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s real estate investments were composed of four office properties and an office building that is part of an office campus, encompassing in the aggregate approximately 2.4 million rentable square feet. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s real estate portfolio was 73% occupied. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s liquidation value of real estate was $698.5 million, exclusive of net operating income to be earned and projected capital expenditures to be incurred over the expected hold period through sale.
As a result of adopting the liquidation basis of accounting as of February 1, 2020, as of December 31, 2020, real estate properties were recorded at their estimated liquidation value, which represents the estimated gross amount of cash that the Company will collect through the sale of its real estate properties owned as of December 31, 2020 as it carries out its Plan of Liquidation.

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluates subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.
Updated Estimated Value Per Share
On March 11, 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved an estimated value per share of the Company’s common stock of $2.07 based on the Company’s net assets in liquidation, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of December 31, 2020. For a description of the methodologies and assumptions used in the determination of the estimated value per share, see Part II, Item 5, “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Market Information” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Share Redemption Program
The Company’s share redemption program provides only for redemptions that qualify as Special Redemptions. In accordance with the Company’s share redemption program, these Special Redemptions are made at a price per share equal to the Company’s most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date, provided that if the Company’s board of directors has declared liquidating distributions on such share with a record date prior to the applicable redemption date for such share and the most recent estimated value per share has not been updated to reflect the reduction for such liquidating distributions, then the redemption price per share will be reduced to reflect the amount of such liquidating distributions. The redemption price per share of the Company’s common stock eligible for redemption on the March 31, 2021 redemption date will equal $2.07.
