FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and we intend that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbor provisions created thereby. For this purpose, any statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical or current facts may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as "anticipates," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," "expects," "intends," "continue," "can," "may," "plans," "potential," "projects," "should," "could," "will," "would" or similar expressions and the negatives of those expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to, any statements about our plans, strategies, and prospects and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as well as known and unknown risks, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of our performance in future periods.
The forward-looking statements included herein represent our management’s current expectations and assumptions based on information available as of the date of this report. These statements involve numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Readers should carefully review these risks, as well as the additional risks described in other documents we file from time-to-time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In light of the significant risks and uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that such results will be achieved, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking information, which speak only as of the date of this report.
Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time-to-time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual future results to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. The following are some, but not all, of the assumptions, risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements:
• | A special committee of our board of directors, which is comprised of the four independent directors, is conducting an exclusive due diligence process in conjunction with their evaluation of a potential transaction with Rich Uncles Real Estate Investment Trust I ("REIT I"), an affiliated REIT, as further discussed in Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, and there is no assurance that such process will result in any transaction with REIT I on terms acceptable to us or at all. |
• | If we are unable to raise substantial funds from our securities offerings, we will be limited in the number and type of investments we may make. |
• | We are subject to competition in the acquisition and disposition of properties and in the leasing of our properties and we may be unable to acquire, dispose of, or lease properties on a timely basis or on attractive terms. |
• | We may be unable to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-lease space as leases expire on favorable terms or at all. |
• | Disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions affecting us, the geographies or industries in which our properties are concentrated, or our tenants may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. |
• | Our properties, intangible assets and other assets may be subject to impairment charges. |
• | We could be subject to unexpected costs or unexpected liabilities that may arise from potential dispositions of properties and may be unable to dispose of properties on advantageous terms. |
• | We could be subject to risks associated with bankruptcies or insolvencies of tenants or from tenant defaults generally. |
• | We have substantial indebtedness, which may affect our ability to pay distributions, and expose us to interest rate fluctuation risk and the risk of default under our debt obligations. |
• | We may be affected by risks related to the incurrence of additional secured or unsecured debt. |
• | We have only a limited prior operating history, and the prior performance of real estate investment programs sponsored by affiliates of our sponsor, BrixInvest, LLC (d/b/a Rich Uncles LLC), may not be an indication of our future results. |
• | We may not be able to attain or maintain profitability. |
• | Cash for distributions to investors will be from net rental income (including sales of properties) or waiver or deferral of reimbursements to our sponsor or fees paid to our advisor. |
• | We may not generate cash flows sufficient to pay our distributions to stockholders or meet our debt service obligations. |
• | We may be affected by risks resulting from losses in excess of insured limits. |
• | We may fail to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. |
• | Our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by an ongoing investigation by the SEC. |
• | We are dependent upon our advisor, sponsor and their affiliates to conduct our operations, and adverse changes in their financial health could cause our operations to suffer; our advisor also has the right to terminate the advisory agreement upon 60 days’ written notice without cause or penalty. |
• | Our advisor, sponsor and their affiliates, including all of our executive officers and our affiliated directors and other key real estate professionals, face conflicts of interest, which may result in actions that are not in the long-term best interests of our stockholders. |
• | Risks of security breaches through cyber-attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our information technology networks and related systems, could adversely affect our business and results of operations. |
Our forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in light of the risk factors identified above and the additional risks and uncertainties described in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

NOTE 1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
RW Holdings NNN REIT, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on May 14, 2015 as a Maryland corporation. The Company has the authority to issue 450,000,000 shares of stock, consisting of 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, 300,000,000 shares of Class C common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 100,000,000 shares of Class S common stock, $0.001 par value per share. The Company was formed to primarily invest, directly or indirectly through investments in real estate owning entities, in single-tenant income-producing properties located in the United States, which are leased to creditworthy tenants under long-term net leases. The Company’s goal is to generate current income for investors and long-term capital appreciation in the value of its properties.
The Company holds its investments in real property through special purpose, wholly-owned limited liability companies, which are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Rich Uncles NNN Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership") or through the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership was formed on January 28, 2016. The Company is the sole general partner of, and owns a 99% partnership interest in, the Operating Partnership. Rich Uncles NNN LP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company formed on May 13, 2016 ("NNN LP"), owns the remaining 1% partnership interest in the Operating Partnership and is the sole limited partner. NNN LP is wholly-owned by the Company.
The Company is externally managed by its advisor, Rich Uncles NNN REIT Operator, LLC (the "Advisor"), a Delaware limited liability company, pursuant to an advisory agreement, as amended (the "Advisory Agreement"). The Advisor is wholly-owned by the Company’s sponsor, BrixInvest, LLC (f/k/a Rich Uncles, LLC, the "Sponsor"), a Delaware limited liability company whose members include Aaron S. Halfacre and Raymond Wirta, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, respectively. On each of June 24, 2015 and December 31, 2015, the Company issued 10,000 shares of its Class C common stock to the Sponsor, for a total of 20,000 shares of Class C common stock, at a purchase price of $10.00 per share. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Sponsor held 10,740 shares of the Company’s Class C common stock.
On July 15, 2015, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") to register an initial public offering of a maximum of 90,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public (the "Primary Offering"). The Company also registered a maximum of 10,000,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (the "Registered DRP Offering" and, together with the Primary Offering, the "Registered Offering"). The SEC declared the Company’s registration statement effective on June 1, 2016 and on July 20, 2016, the Company began offering shares of common stock to the public. Pursuant to its securities offering registered with the SEC, the Company sells shares of its "Class C" common stock directly to investors, with a minimum investment in shares of $500. Commencing in August 2017, the Company began selling shares of its Class C common stock only to U.S. persons as defined under Rule 903 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Under applicable SEC rules, the current registration statement for the Registered Offering was scheduled to terminate on June 1, 2019, unless the Company filed a new registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC prior to such date to extend the Registered Offering in accordance with Rule 415 of the Securities Act. On May 24, 2019, the Company filed a new registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC so that the Company may continue to offer shares of its Class C common stock. The Company’s current registration statement on Form S-11 will terminate when the new registration statement is declared effective by the SEC. As required by some states, the Company is also required to renew the registration statement for the Registered Offering annually or file a new registration statement to continue the Registered Offering.
On August 11, 2017, the Company began offering up to 100,000,000 shares of its Class S common stock exclusively to non-U.S. Persons as defined under Rule 903 promulgated under the Securities Act pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and in accordance with Regulation S of the Securities Act (the "Class S Offering" and, together with the Registered Offering, the "Offerings"). The Class S common stock has similar features and rights as the Class C common stock with respect to voting and liquidation except that the Class S common stock offered in the Class S offering may be sold through brokers or other persons who may be paid upfront and/or deferred selling commissions and fees.
On January 11, 2019, the Company’s board of directors approved and established an estimated net asset value ("NAV") per share of the Company’s common stock of $10.16 (unaudited). Effective January 14, 2019, the purchase price per share of the Company’s common stock in the Offerings and share repurchase program increased from $10.05 (unaudited) to $10.16 (unaudited).

Through June 30, 2019, the Company had sold 16,834,959 shares of Class C common stock in the Registered Offering, including 1,263,675 shares of Class C common stock sold under its Registered DRP Offering, for aggregate gross offering proceeds of $169,200,530, and 166,448 shares of Class S common stock in the Class S Offering, including 1,154 shares of Class S common stock sold under its dividend reinvestment plan applicable to Class S common stock, for aggregate gross offering proceeds of $1,689,029.
As of June 30, 2019, the Company had invested in (i) 24 operating properties, comprised of: nine retail properties, 10 office properties and five industrial properties; (ii) one parcel of land, which currently serves as an easement to one of the Company’s office properties; (iii) an approximate 72.7% tenant-in-common interest in a Santa Clara office property (the "TIC Interest"); and (iv) an approximate 4.8% interest in Rich Uncles Real Estate Investment Trust I ("REIT I"), an affiliated REIT.
On January 14, 2019, REIT I announced that it had retained a real estate financial advisor to assist it in evaluating strategic alternatives, which includes marketing its entire real estate properties portfolio (the "REIT I Portfolio") for disposition by sale, merger or other transaction structure. In connection with REIT I’s announcement, on March 19, 2019, the Company announced that it intended to explore a potential acquisition of REIT I or the REIT I Portfolio and that the Company’s board of directors has formed a special committee of the board of directors (the "Special Committee"), consisting solely of independent directors, that is evaluating the potential for a transaction with REIT I.
The members of the Special Committee, comprised of four of the Company’s six directors, have no affiliation with REIT I or the Sponsor. The special committee has engaged UBS Investment Bank as its financial advisor and Morris Manning and Martin, LLP as its legal advisor to assist the Special Committee as it conducts a review of a potential acquisition of REIT I or the REIT I Portfolio.
On June 21, 2019, the Company announced that REIT I conducted a multi-round process whereby bidders submitted proposals to a special committee of the REIT I board of trust managers for preliminary review. As a result of such process, REIT I and the Company determined to commence an exclusive due diligence process. Both parties and their advisors are continuing to evaluate a potential transaction and the Special Committee has not set a definitive timetable for completion of its evaluation. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to enter into any transaction with REIT I on acceptable terms or at all.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial statements and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. Such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2018 audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 29, 2019.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring, necessary to fairly state its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The December 31, 2018 balance sheet included herein was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures or notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Fair Value Disclosures
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an existing price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy, which is based on three levels of inputs, the first two of which are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, is as follows:
Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
Level 3: unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The fair value for certain financial instruments is derived using valuation techniques that involve significant management judgment. The price transparency of financial instruments is a key determinant of the degree of judgment involved in determining the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. Financial instruments for which actively quoted prices or pricing parameters are available and for which markets contain orderly transactions will generally have a higher degree of price transparency than financial instruments for which markets are inactive or consist of non-orderly trades. The Company evaluates several factors when determining if a market is inactive or when market transactions are not orderly. The following is a summary of the methods and assumptions used by management in estimating the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate the fair value:
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, tenant receivables, due from affiliates, purchase and other deposits, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities and due to affiliates: These balances approximate their fair values due to the short maturities of these items.
Derivative Instruments: The Company’s derivative instruments are presented at fair value in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The valuation of these instruments is determined using a proprietary model that utilizes observable inputs. As such, the Company classifies these inputs as Level 2 inputs. The proprietary model uses the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and volatility. The fair values of interest rate swaps are estimated using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit risks to the contracts, are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk.
Unsecured Credit Facility: The fair value of the Company’s Unsecured Credit Facility (as defined in Note 6) approximates its carrying value as the interest rates and other terms are comparable to those available in the market place for a similar credit facility.
Mortgage notes payable: The fair value of the Company’s mortgage notes payable is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s estimates of current market interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value ratio, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs.

Restricted Cash
Restricted cash is comprised of funds which are restricted for use as required by certain lenders in conjunction with an acquisition or debt financing and for on-site and tenant improvements. Restricted cash as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 amounted to $156,046 and $3,503,242, respectively.
Pursuant to lease agreements, the Company had obligations to pay for $156,046 and $3,535,163 in site and tenant improvements to be incurred by tenants as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, including a 72.7% share of tenant improvements for the Santa Clara property at both balance sheet dates. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company's restricted cash held to fund the improvements totaled $99,228 and $3,486,927, respectively. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company also held restricted cash to fund an impounded property tax. During the second quarter of 2019, $3,387,699 of restricted cash was released to a tenant to reimburse it for tenant improvement costs under the terms of its lease agreement.
Other Comprehensive Loss
For all periods presented, other comprehensive loss is the same as net loss.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period revenue account balances in the statement of operations have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on net loss.
Per Share Data
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share of common stock equals basic loss per share of common stock as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company has presented net loss per share amounts on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for Class C and S share classes as a combined common share class. Application of the two-class method for allocating income (loss) in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 260, Earnings per Share, would have resulted in a net loss per share of $(0.06) and $(0.02) for Class C shares for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $(0.10) and $(0.07) for Class S shares for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The two-class method would have resulted in a net loss per share of $(0.13) and $(0.02) for Class C shares for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $(0.18) and $(0.11) for Class S shares for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
The differences in net loss per share if allocated under this method primarily reflect the lower effective dividends per share for Class S shareholders as a result of the payment of the deferred commission to the Class S distributor of these shares, and also reflect the impact of the timing of the declaration of the dividends relative to the time the shares were outstanding.
Distributions
The Company’s board of directors may declare distributions in advance of the periods to which they relate. Because such distributions relate to operations and cash available for distributions to be produced in future periods, these distributions will not included in distributions that are recorded in the current period being reported.

The following are the Company’s updated significant accounting policies that have been affected by the adoption of Topic 842 as discussed below in New Accounting Standards Issued and Adopted:
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes rental income, tenant reimbursements and other lease-related revenue when all of the following criteria are met: (i) the agreement has been fully executed and delivered, (ii) services have been rendered, (iii) the amount is fixed or determinable and (iv) payment has been received or the collectability of the amount due is probable. Lease termination fees are amortized over the remaining lease term, if applicable. If there is no remaining lease term, they are recognized when received and realized. Minimum annual rental revenues are recognized in rental income on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable term of the related lease.
The recognition of rental income commences when the tenant takes possession or controls the physical use of the leased property. In order for the tenant to take possession, the leased property must be substantially complete and ready for its intended use. In order to determine whether the leased property is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, the Company begins by determining whether the Company or the tenant owns the tenant improvements, if the lease agreement provides for tenant improvements.
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 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. |
When the Company concludes that it is the owner of tenant improvements, rental income recognition begins when the tenant takes possession of the completed property, which is generally when Company-owned tenant improvements are substantially complete. In addition, when the Company concludes that it is the owner of tenant improvements, the Company records the costs to construct the tenant improvements, including costs paid for or reimbursed by the tenants, as a capital asset. For these tenant improvements, the Company records the amount funded by or reimbursed by the tenants as deferred revenue, which is amortized on a straight-line basis as additional rental income over the term of the related lease.
When the Company concludes that the tenant is the owner of tenant improvements, rental income recognition begins when the tenant takes possession of or controls the physical use of the leased property. Any tenant improvement allowance (including amounts that the tenant can take in the form of cash or a credit against its rent) that is funded is treated as a lease incentive and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the lease term. In addition, when the Company concludes that the tenant is the owner of tenant improvements for accounting purposes, the Company records its contribution towards such improvements as a lease incentive, which is included in deferred leasing costs and acquisition-related intangible assets, net in its consolidated balance sheets and amortized as a reduction to rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease.
Tenant Reimbursements
Tenant reimbursements, consisting of amounts due from tenants for common area maintenance, property taxes and other recoverable costs, are recognized in rental income in the period the recoverable costs are incurred. Tenant reimbursements are recorded on a gross basis when the Company pays the associated costs directly to third-party vendors and are reimbursed subsequently by the tenants.
Allowances for Tenant and Deferred Rent Receivables
The Company carries its tenant and deferred rent receivables net of allowances for amounts that may not be collected. Prior to the Company’s adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, the allowances were increased or decreased through provision for bad debts in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. Upon the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, the determination of the adequacy of the Company's allowances for tenant and deferred rent receivables includes a binary assessment of whether the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection.
13
RW HOLDINGS NNN REIT, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(Unaudited)
For such amounts that are deemed probable of collection, revenue continues to be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For such amounts that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as the lesser of (i) the amount which would be recognized on a straight-line basis or (ii) cash that has been received from the tenant, with any current and deferred rent receivable balances charged as a direct write-off against rental income in the period of the change in the collectability determination.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
New Accounting Standards Issued and Adopted
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") ASU No. 2016-02 "Leases (Topic 842)" and the related FASB ASU Nos. 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20 and 2019-01, which provide practical expedients, technical corrections and improvements for certain aspects of ASU 2016-02, on a modified retrospective basis (collectively "Topic 842"). Topic 842 establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for leases and supersedes the existing leasing guidance. Topic 842 applies to all entities that enter into leases. Lessees are required to report assets and liabilities that arise from leases. Lessor accounting has largely remained unchanged; however, certain refinements were made to conform with revenue recognition guidance, specifically related to the allocation and recognition of contract consideration earned from lease and non-lease revenue components. The Company currently does not have any exposure to Topic 842 from the perspective of a lessee as the operating lease is borne by the Sponsor. The Company's exposure to Topic 842 is primarily as a lessor. The Company has elected to apply the applicable practical expedients provided by Topic 842.
Lessor Accounting
As a lessor, the Company’s leases with tenants generally provide for the lease of real estate properties, as well as common area maintenance, property taxes and other recoverable costs. Under Topic 842, the lease of space is considered a lease component while the common area maintenance, property taxes and other recoverable costs billings are considered nonlease components, which fall under revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606. However, upon adopting the guidance in Topic 842, the Company determined that its tenant leases met the criteria to apply the practical expedient provided by ASU 2018-11 to recognize the lease and non-lease components together as one single component. This conclusion was based on the consideration that 1) the timing and pattern of transfer of the nonlease components and associated lease component are the same, and 2) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. As the lease of properties is the predominant component of the Company’s leasing arrangements, the Company accounted for all lease and nonlease components as one-single component under Topic 842. As a result, the adoption of Topic 842 did not have any impact on the Company’s timing or pattern of recognition of rental revenues as compared to previous guidance. To reflect recognition as one lease component, rental income and tenant reimbursements and other lease related property income that meet the requirements of the practical expedient provided by ASU 2018-11 have been combined under rental income subsequent to the adoption of Topic 842 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company also made a conforming reclassification for the prior year’s tenant reimbursements. For the three month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, tenant reimbursements included in rental income amounted to $1,098,603 and $732,934, respectively, and for the six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, tenant reimbursements included in rental income amounted to $2,186,463 and $1,261,519, respectively.
Prior to the adoption of Topic 842, lessor costs for certain services directly reimbursed by tenants have already been presented by the Company on a gross basis in revenues and expenses.
Leasing Costs
Upon adoption of Topic 842, the Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients provided and did not reassess the following as of January 1, 2019: 1) whether any expired or existing contracts are leases or contain leases; 2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and 3) initial direct costs for any existing leases. Under Topic 842, initial direct costs for both lessees and lessors would include only those costs that are incremental to the arrangement and would not have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained. As a result, beginning January 1, 2019, the Company will no longer capitalize internal leasing costs and third-party legal leasing costs and will instead expense these costs as incurred. These expenses will be included in legal leasing costs under general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company did not incur any indirect leasing costs which would have been capitalized prior to the adoption of Topic 842. The election of the package of practical expedients described above permits us to continue to account for our leases that commenced before January 1, 2019 under the previously existing lease accounting guidance for the remainder of their lease terms, and to apply the new lease accounting guidance to leases commencing or modified after January 1, 2019.

Allowances for Tenant and Deferred Rent Receivables
Upon the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, the Company’s determination of the adequacy of its allowances for tenant receivables includes a binary assessment of whether or not the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection. For such amounts that are deemed probable of collection, revenue continues to be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For such amounts that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as the lesser of (i) the amount which would be recognized on a straight-line basis or (ii) cash that has been received from the tenant, with any tenant and deferred rent receivable balances charged as a direct write-off against rental income in the period of the change in the collectability determination. In addition, for tenant and deferred rent receivables deemed probable of collection the Company also may record an allowance under other authoritative GAAP depending upon the Company’s evaluation of the individual receivables, specific credit enhancements, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. Such allowances are recorded as increases or decreases through rental income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
New Accounting Standards Recently Issued and Not Yet Adopted
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework -Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU No. 2018-13"). ASU No. 2018-13 removes the requirement to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for the timing of transfers between levels and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. It also adds a requirement to disclose changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and to disclose the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop recurring and nonrecurring Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, entities may disclose other quantitative information in lieu of the weighted average if the other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop the Level 3 fair value measurement. In addition, public entities are required to provide information about the measurement uncertainty of recurring Level 3 fair value measurements from the use of significant unobservable inputs if those inputs reasonably could have been different at the reporting date. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2020. Entities are permitted to early adopt either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify the requirements. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The Company is still evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2018-13 on its consolidated financial statements.

TIC Interest
On September 28, 2017, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, acquired an approximate 72.7% interest in an office property in San Clara, California. The remaining approximate 27.3% of undivided interest in the Santa Clara property is held by Hagg Lane II, LLC (an approximate 23.4%) and Hagg Lane III, LLC (an approximate 3.9%). The manager of Hagg Lane II, LLC and Hagg Lane III, LLC is a board member of the Sponsor. The Santa Clara property does not qualify as a variable interest entity and consolidation is not required as the Company’s TIC Interest does not control the property. Therefore, the Company accounts for the TIC Interest using the equity method. The Company receives approximately 72.7% of the cash flow distributions and recognizes approximately 72.7% of the results of operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company received $109,720 and $136,849 in cash distributions from its TIC Interest, respectively, and during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company received $273,618 and $316,535, respectively.

(1) During the three months ended June 30, 2018, REIT I recorded an impairment charge of $862,190 related to its investment in a property in Antioch, California due to the expiration of the tenant’s lease term at December 31, 2017 and REIT I’s subsequent difficulties encountered during the first half of 2018 in its efforts to re-lease the property at acceptable rent rates and without incurring substantial potential tenant improvement costs. The impairment charge was less than 1.0% of REIT I’s total investments in real estate property and the book value of the property after the impairment charge was less than 2.0% of REIT I’s total investments in real estate property as of June 30, 2018.
(2) The gain on sale of real estate investment property of $113,773 during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was due to the higher mortgage loan balance and related interest payable of the property in Antioch, California compared to its net book value when it was relinquished in a foreclosure sale on March 13, 2019.

(2) | The loans on each of the Williams Sonoma and Wyndham properties (collectively, the "Property") located in Summerlin, Nevada were originated by Nevada State Bank ("Bank"). The loans are collateralized by a deed of trust and a security agreement with assignment of rents and fixture filing. In addition, the individual loans are subject to a cross collateralization and cross default agreement whereby any default under, or failure to comply with the terms of any one or both of the loans, is an event of default under the terms of both loans. The value of the Property must be in an amount sufficient to maintain a loan to value ratio of no more than 60%. If the loan to value ratio is ever more than 60%, the borrower shall, upon the Bank’s written demand, reduce the principal balance of the loans so that the loan to value ratio is no more than 60%. |
(3) | The initial contractual interest rate is 4.25% and starting November 18, 2022, the interest rate is T-Bill index plus 3.25%. |

Disclosures of the fair values of financial instruments are based on pertinent information available to the Company as of the period end and require a significant amount of judgment. The actual value could be materially different from the Company’s estimate of value.
Unsecured Credit Facility
The Company, together with the Operating Partnership and NNN LP ("Borrowers"), has a Business Loan Agreement and Promissory Note (the "Unsecured Credit Facility") with Pacific Mercantile Bank ("Lender"). The Unsecured Credit Facility was a revolving unsecured line of credit for a maximum principal amount of $9,000,000 and was scheduled to mature on January 26, 2019, unless earlier terminated. The Borrowers received extensions of the Unsecured Credit Facility through April 30, 2019. On April 30, 2019, Borrowers entered into a new Loan Agreement (the "New Credit Facility") with Lender. The New Credit Facility replaces the $9,000,000 unsecured line of credit with Lender, which expired on April 30, 2019. The New Credit Facility is a revolving unsecured line of credit for a maximum principal amount of $10,000,000 and matures on October 1, 2020, unless earlier terminated. The New Credit Facility has similar terms to the expired facility.
The New Credit Facility is secured by a continuing guaranty executed by the Company’s Sponsor and Advisor, along with springing guaranties executed by Raymond E. Wirta, Chairman of the Board of the Company, and a trust belonging to Mr. Wirta, each in the amount of $10,000,000. Mr. Wirta’s guaranties become effective upon certain triggering events, including the failure by Borrowers to pay one or more subsequent advances within 90 days of disbursement or an event of default under the New Credit Facility.
Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, Borrowers pay a variable rate of interest on outstanding amounts equal to one (1) percentage point over an independent index published in The Wall Street Journal based on the highest rate on corporate loans posted by at least 75% of the largest banks (the "Index"). The interest rate was 6.50% as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
The New Credit Facility contains customary representations, warranties and covenants. The Company’s ability to borrow under the New Credit Facility is subject to its ongoing compliance with various affirmative and negative covenants, including with respect to indebtedness, guaranties, mergers and asset sales, liens, dividends, corporate existence and financial reporting obligations. The New Credit Facility also contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts when due, violation of covenants, breaches of representations or warranties and change of ownership. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, Lender may accelerate the repayment of amounts outstanding under the New Credit Facility and exercise other remedies subject, in certain instances, to the expiration of an applicable cure period.
As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the Company had $0 and $9,000,000 of outstanding borrowings, respectively, under the New Credit Facility and Unsecured Credit Facility, as then in effect.
All Debt Agreements
Pursuant to the terms of mortgage notes payable on certain of the Company’s properties and the Unsecured Credit Facility, the Company and/or the Borrowers are subject to certain financial loan covenants. The Company and/or the Borrowers were in compliance with all terms and conditions of the applicable loan agreements as of June 30, 2019.

NOTE 7. INTEREST RATE SWAP DERIVATIVES
The Company, through its wholly-owned limited liability company subsidiaries, has entered into interest rate swap agreements with amortizing notional amounts relating to four of its mortgage notes payable. The notional amount is an indication of the extent of the Company’s involvement in each instrument at that time, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks.
The following table summarizes the notional amount and other information related to the Company’s interest rate swaps:
June 30, 2019 | December 31, 2018 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Derivative Instruments | Number of Instruments | Notional Amount (i) | Reference Rate (ii) | Weighted Average Fixed Pay Rate | Weighted Average Remaining Term | Number of Instruments | Notional Amount (i) | Reference Rate (iii) | Weighted Average Fixed Pay Rate | Weighted Average Remaining Term | ||||||||||||||||
Interest Rate Swap Derivatives | 4 | $ | 27,212,600 | One-month LIBOR + applicable spread/Fixed at 4.05%-5.16% | 4.71 | % | 4.6 years | 4 | $ | 27,346,400 | One-month LIBOR + applicable spread/Fixed at 4.05%-5.16% | 4.73 | % | 5.1 years |
(i) | The notional amount of the Company’s swaps decreases each month to correspond to the outstanding principal balance on the related mortgage. The minimum notional amount (outstanding principal balance at the maturity date) as of June 30, 2019 was $24,967,299. |
(ii) | The reference rate as of June 30, 2019. |
(iii) | The reference rate as of December 31, 2018. |
The following table sets forth the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments (Level 2 measurement), as well as their classification in the condensed consolidated balance sheets:
June 30, 2019 | December 31, 2018 | |||||||||||||
Derivative Instrument | Balance Sheet Location | Number of Instruments | Fair Value | Number of Instruments | Fair Value | |||||||||

Interest Rate Swaps | Liability - Interest rate swap derivatives, at fair value | 4 | $ | (1,023,730 | ) | 2 | $ | (300,929 | ) |
The change in fair value of a derivative instrument that is not designated as a cash flow hedge for financial accounting purposes is recorded as interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. None of the Company’s derivatives at June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018 were designated as hedging instruments; therefore, the net unrealized loss (gain) recognized on interest rate swaps of $553,490 and $6,235 was recorded as an increase (decrease) in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $874,016 and $(220,571) was recorded as an increase (decrease) in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively (see Note 6).
NOTE 8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company pays the members of its board of directors who are not executive officers for services rendered by issuing shares of Class C common stock to them. The total amount paid was $55,000 and $43,215 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, for which the Company issued 5,414 and 4,300 shares, respectively and $105,000 and $81,405 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, for which the Company issued 10,335 and 8,100 shares, respectively. The Company also accrued $71,667 for directors fees earned in the second quarter of 2019 and paid in the third quarter of 2019.
The Company has entered into an agreement (as amended, the "Advisory Agreement") with the Advisor. On August 9, 2019, the Advisory Agreement was further amended to delete the subordinated participation fee from the agreement. On August 9, 2019, the board of directors of the Company, including all of the independent directors, also approved renewing the Advisory Agreement, which was scheduled to expire on August 11, 2019 to December 31, 2019. This Advisory Agreement entitles the Advisor to specified fees upon the provision of certain services with regard to investments in real estate and the management of those investments, among other services, and the disposition of investments, as well as entitling the Advisor to reimbursement of organizational and offering costs incurred by the Advisor or Sponsor on behalf of the Company, such as expenses related to the

Offerings, and certain costs incurred by the Advisor or Sponsor in providing services to the Company. In addition, the Advisor is entitled to certain other fees as detailed in the Advisory Agreement. The Sponsor also serves as the sponsor for REIT I and BRIX REIT, Inc. ("BRIX REIT"). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, no business transactions occurred between the Company and REIT I, or BRIX REIT, Inc., other than as described below or elsewhere herein, and those relating to the Company’s investment in REIT I described in Note 5.

(1) | To the extent the Advisor elects, in its sole discretion, to defer all or any portion of its monthly asset management fee, the Advisor will be deemed to have waived, not deferred, that portion up to 0.025% of the total investment value of the Company’s assets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Advisor did not waive any of the asset management fees. In addition to amounts presented in this table, the Company also incurred asset management fees to the Advisor of $47,977 and $47,977 related to the TIC Interest during the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which amounts are reflected as a reduction of income recognized from investments in unconsolidated entities and $95,953 and $95,953 during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively (see Note 5). |

The expense reimbursements from the Sponsor for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 also include $(40,915) of refund to the Sponsor and $99,945 of employment related legal fees, respectively, which the Sponsor agreed to reimburse the Company. The receivables related to these costs are reflected in "Due from affiliates" in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. |

(4) | As of June 30, 2019, the Sponsor had incurred $8,815,104 of organizational and offering costs on behalf of the Company. However, the Company is only obligated to reimburse the Sponsor for such organizational and offering expenses to the extent of 3% of gross offering proceeds resulting in a total reimbursement amount of $5,120,687 as of June 30, 2019. |
Organizational and Offering Expenses
The Company is obligated to reimburse the Sponsor or its affiliates for organizational and offering expenses (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) paid by the Sponsor on behalf of the Company. The Company will reimburse the Sponsor for organizational and offering expenses up to 3% of gross offering proceeds. The Sponsor and affiliates will be responsible for any organizational and offering expenses to the extent they exceed 3% of gross offering proceeds. As of June 30, 2019, the Sponsor has incurred organizational and offering expenses in excess of 3% of the gross offering proceeds received by the Company. To the extent the Company has more gross offering proceeds from future stockholders, the Company will be obligated to reimburse the Sponsor. As the amount of future gross offering proceeds is uncertain, the amount the Company is obligated to reimburse to the Sponsor is uncertain. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has reimbursed the Sponsor $5,092,718 in organizational and offering costs. The Company’s maximum liability for organizational and offering costs through June 30, 2019 was $5,120,687, of which $27,969 was payable as of June 30, 2019 and is included in "Due to affiliates" in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Investor Relations Payroll Expense Reimbursement from Sponsor
The Company employs investor relations personnel that answer inquiries from potential investors regarding the Company and/or its Registered Offering. The payroll expense associated with the investor relations personnel is reimbursed by the Sponsor. The Sponsor considers these payroll costs to be offering expenses. The payroll expense reimbursements from the Sponsor for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were $143,997 and $242,416, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were $272,911 and $553,508, respectively. The reduction in reimbursements during the 2019 period reflects a reduction in the number of investor relations personnel and related costs.
Acquisition Fees
The Company pays the Advisor a fee in an amount equal to 3% of the contract purchase price of the Company’s properties plus additions to real estate investments, as defined, as acquisition fees. The total of all acquisition fees and acquisition expenses shall be reasonable and shall not exceed 6% of the contract price of the property. However, a majority of the directors (including a majority of the independent directors) not otherwise interested in the transaction may approve fees in excess of these limits if they determine the transaction to be commercially competitive, fair and reasonable to the Company.
Asset Management Fees
The Company pays the Advisor, as compensation for the advisory services rendered to the Company, a monthly fee in an amount equal to 0.1% of the total investment value, as defined (the "Asset Management Fee"), as of the end of the preceding month plus the book value of any properties or property improvements acquired during the month pro-rated based on the number of days owned. The Asset Management Fee is payable monthly on the last business day of such month. The Asset Management Fee, which must be reasonable in the determination of the Company’s independent directors at least annually, may or may not be taken, in whole or in part as to any year, in the sole discretion of the Advisor. All or any portion of the Asset Management Fee not paid as to any fiscal year is deferred without interest and may be paid in such other fiscal year as the Advisor shall determine. Additionally, to the extent the Advisor elects, in its sole discretion, to defer all or any portion of its monthly Asset Management Fee, the Advisor will be deemed to have waived, not deferred, that portion of its monthly Asset Management Fee that is up to 0.025% of the total investment value of the Company’s assets. The total amount of Asset Management Fees incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $680,018 and $477,915 respectively, none of which was waived. The total amount of Asset Management Fees incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $1,360,037 and $879,230 respectively, of which none was waived. There were no Asset Management Fees payable at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Financing Coordination Fees
Other than with respect to any mortgage or other financing related to a property concurrent with its acquisition, if the Advisor or an affiliate provides a substantial amount of the services (as determined by a majority of the Company’s independent directors) in connection with the post-acquisition financing or refinancing of any debt that the Company obtains relative to a property, then the Company pays to the Advisor or such affiliate a financing coordination fee equal to 1% of the amount of such financing. The Company did not pay any financing coordination fees during the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 as there were no loans obtained during both quarters, and paid $63,500 and $209,550 of financing coordination fees during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 related to one and three loans, respectively.
Property Management Fees
If the Advisor or any of its affiliates provides a substantial amount of the property management services (as determined by a majority of the Company’s independent directors) for the Company’s properties, then the Company pays the Advisor or such affiliate a property management fee equal to 1.5% of gross revenues from the properties managed. The Company also reimburses the Advisor and any of its affiliates for property-level expenses that such tenant pays or incurs to the Company, including salaries, bonuses and benefits of persons employed by the Advisor, except for the salaries, bonuses and benefits of persons who also serve as one of the Company’s executive officers or as an executive officer of such person. The Advisor or its affiliate may subcontract the performance of its property management duties to third parties and pay all or a portion of its property management fee to the third parties with whom it contracts for these services.
Disposition Fees
For substantial assistance in connection with the sale of properties, the Company pays the Advisor or one of its affiliates 3% of the contract sales price, as defined, of each property sold; provided, however, that if, in connection with such disposition, commissions are paid to third parties unaffiliated with the Advisor or its affiliates, the disposition fees paid to the Advisor, the Sponsor, their affiliates and unaffiliated third parties may not exceed the lesser of the competitive real estate commission or 6% of the contract sales price. There were no disposition fees incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
Subordinated Participation Fees
For 2017 and 2018, the Company owed the Advisor or an affiliate a subordinated participation fee calculated as of December 31 of each year which was paid in the immediately following January. On August 9, 2019, the Advisory Agreement was amended to delete the subordinated participation fee from the agreement.
The subordinated participation fee was only due if the Preferred Return, as defined, was achieved and was equal to the sum of (using terms as defined in the Advisory Agreement):
(i) | 30% of the product of (a) the difference of (x) the Preliminary NAV per share minus (y) the Highest Prior NAV per share, multiplied by (b) the number of shares outstanding as of December 31 of the relevant annual period, but only if this results in a positive number, plus |
(ii) | 30% of the product of: (a) the amount by which aggregate distributions to stockholders during the annual period, excluding return of capital distributions, divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the annual period, exceed the Preferred Return, multiplied by (b) the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the annual period calculated on a monthly basis. |
The Company calculated subordinated participation fees of $839,050 and $315,802 which were accrued as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and paid in cash during the first quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively.

If a property or properties of the Company becomes unleased and the Advisor or any of its affiliates provides a substantial amount of the services (as determined by a majority of the Company’s independent directors) in connection with the Company’s leasing of a property or properties to unaffiliated third parties, then the Company pays the Advisor or such affiliate leasing commissions equal to 6% of the rents due pursuant to such lease for the first ten years of the lease term; provided, however (i) if the term of the lease is less than ten years, such commission percentage will apply to the full term of the lease and (ii) any rents due under a renewal of a lease of an existing tenant upon expiration of the initial lease agreement (including any extensions provided for thereunder) shall accrue a commission of 3% in lieu of the aforementioned 6% commission. There were no leasing commission fees incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Under the Company's charter, total operating expenses of the Company are limited to the greater of 2% of average invested assets or 25% of net income for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters (the "2%/25% Limitation"). If the Company exceeds the 2%/25% Limitation, the Advisor must reimburse the Company the amount by which the aggregate total operating expenses exceeds the limitation, or the Company must obtain a waiver from the Company's conflicts committee. For purposes of determining the 2%/25% Limitation amount, "average invested assets" means the average monthly book value of the Company’s assets invested directly or indirectly in equity interests and loans secured by real estate during the 12-month period before deducting depreciation, reserves for bad debts or other non-cash reserves. "Total operating expenses" means all expenses paid or incurred by the Company, as determined by GAAP, that are in any way related to the Company’s operation including asset management fees, but excluding (a) the expenses of raising capital such as organization and offering expenses, legal, audit, accounting, underwriting, brokerage, listing, registration and other fees, printing and other such expenses and taxes incurred in connection with the issuance, distribution, transfer, listing and registration of shares of the Company’s common stock; (b) interest payments; (c) taxes; (d) non-cash expenditures such as depreciation, amortization and bad debt reserves; (e) reasonable incentive fees based upon increases in NAV per share; (f) acquisition fees and acquisition expenses (including expenses, relating to potential investments that the Company does not close); and (h) disposition fees on the sale of real property and other expenses connected with the acquisition, disposition and ownership of real estate interests or other property (other than disposition fees on the sale of assets other than real property), including the costs of insurance premiums, legal services, maintenance, repair and improvement of real property.
The Company is in compliance with the 2%/25% Limitation for operating expenses for the four fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2019.
NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Economic Dependency
The Company depends on its Sponsor and its Advisor for certain services that are essential to the Company, including the sale of the Company’s shares of common stock, the identification, evaluation, negotiation, origination, acquisition and disposition of investments; management of the daily operations of the Company’s investment portfolio; and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that these companies are unable to provide the respective services, the Company will be required to obtain such services from other sources.
The Company generally does not require collateral or other security from tenants, other than security deposits or letters of credit. However, since concentration of rental revenue from certain tenants exists, the inability of those tenants to make their payments could have an adverse effect on the Company.
Environmental
As an owner of real estate, the Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state and local governments. Although there can be no assurance, the Company is not aware of any environmental liability that could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. However, changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations, the uses and conditions of properties in the vicinity of the Company’s properties, the activities of its tenants and other environmental conditions of which the Company is unaware with respect to the property could result in future environmental liabilities.

Tenant Improvements
Pursuant to lease agreements, as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had obligations to pay for $401,392 and $3,789,091, respectively, in site and tenant improvements to be incurred by tenants, including a 72.7% share of the tenant improvements for the Santa Clara property. During the second quarter of 2019, $3,387,699 of the restricted cash balance as of December 31, 2018 was released to a tenant to reimburse it for tenant improvement costs under the terms of the lease agreement. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had $99,228 and $3,486,927 of restricted cash held to fund tenant improvements.
Redemption of Common Stock
The maximum amount that may be repurchased per month is limited to no more than 2% of the Company’s most recently determined aggregate NAV. Repurchases for any calendar quarter will be limited to no more than 5% of its most recently determined aggregate NAV. The foregoing repurchase limitations are based on "net repurchases" during a quarter or month, as applicable. Thus, for any given calendar quarter or month, the maximum amount of repurchases during that quarter or month will be equal to (1) 5% or 2% (as applicable) of the Company’s most recently determined aggregate NAV, plus (2) proceeds from sales of new shares in the Registered Offering and Class S Offering (including purchases pursuant to its Registered DRP Offering) since the beginning of a current calendar quarter or month, less (3) repurchase proceeds paid since the beginning of the current calendar quarter or month.
The Company has the discretion to repurchase fewer shares than have been requested to be repurchased in a particular month or quarter, or to repurchase no shares at all, in the event that it lacks readily available funds to do so due to market conditions beyond the Company’s control, its need to maintain liquidity for its operations or because the Company determines that investing in real property or other illiquid investments is a better use of its capital than repurchasing its shares. In the event that the Company repurchases some but not all of the shares submitted for repurchase in a given period, shares submitted for repurchase during such period will be repurchased on a pro-rata basis. In addition, the Company’s board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program without stockholder approval upon 30 days’ notice if its directors believe such action is in the Company and its stockholders’ best interests. The Company’s board of directors may also amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program due to changes in law or regulation, or if the board of directors becomes aware of undisclosed material information that the Company believes should be publicly disclosed before shares are repurchased.
In order to protect the interests of long-term investors, on August 7, 2019, the board of directors amended the share repurchase program for the Class C common stock to require that shares be held for 90 days after they have been issued to the applicable stockholder before the Company will accept requests for repurchase. This policy is being implemented to:
• | avoid disruption to cash management and real estate investment activity; |
• | reduce the cost burden incurred from short-term share repurchase requests; and |
• | protect the Company, its stockholders and corresponding financial institutions from fraudulent cyber activities. |
In accordance with the terms of the share repurchase program, this amendment will become effective 30 days after this Form 10-Q and a related supplement to the prospectus for the Registered Offering are filed with the SEC.
Legal and Regulatory Matters
From time-to-time, the Company may become party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Other than as described below, the Company is not a party to any legal proceeding, nor is the Company aware of any pending or threatened litigation that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results, cash flows or financial condition should such litigation be resolved unfavorably.
The SEC is conducting an investigation related to, among other things, the advertising and sale of securities in connection with the Registered Offering and compliance with broker-dealer regulations. The investigation is a non-public fact-finding inquiry. At this stage of the investigation, the SEC has not made an allegation of wrongdoing nor a finding that violations of law have occurred. In connection with the investigation, the Company and certain associates have received and responded to subpoenas from the SEC, including requests for various documents related to the Company, the Sponsor, and the Registered Offering. The SEC’s investigation is ongoing. The Company has cooperated and intends to continue to cooperate with the SEC in this matter. The Company is presently in discussion with the SEC about potential outcomes resulting from the investigation. The Company is unable to predict whether the SEC will commence any legal actions or launch additional investigations, inquiries or other actions related thereto.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows together with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes that are included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 29, 2019. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. See "Forward-Looking Statements" above.
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On a regular basis, we evaluate these estimates. These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Overview
We were formed on May 14, 2015 as a Maryland corporation that elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2016 and we intend to continue to operate so as to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes thereafter. We intend to invest primarily in single tenant income-producing corporate properties which are leased to creditworthy tenants under long-term net leases. Although we are not limited as to the form our investments may take, our investments in real estate will generally constitute acquiring fee title or interests in entities that own and operate real estate. We will make substantially all acquisitions of our real estate investments directly through Rich Uncles NNN Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Operating Partnership"), or indirectly through limited liability companies or limited partnerships, including through other REITs, or through investments in joint ventures, partnerships, tenants-in-common, co-tenancies or other co-ownership arrangements with other owners of properties, affiliates of our Advisor (as defined below) or other persons.
We consider our Company to be a perpetual-life investment vehicle because we have no finite date for liquidation and no intention to list our shares of common stock for trading on a national securities exchange or over-the-counter trading market. Although we have registered a fixed number of shares for the Registered Offering (as defined below), we intend to effectively conduct a continuous offering of an unlimited amount of our shares of common stock over an unlimited time period by conducting an uninterrupted series of additional public offerings, subject to regulatory approval of our filings for such additional offerings, and one or more offerings exempt from the registration statement requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), such as our Class S Offering. This perpetual-life structure is aligned with our overall objective of investing in real estate assets with a long-term view towards making regular cash distributions and generating capital appreciation.
Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, our business is externally managed by our advisor, Rich Uncles NNN REIT Operator, LLC (our "Advisor"), a Delaware limited liability company wholly-owned by our sponsor, BrixInvest, LLC (d/b/a Rich Uncles LLC, our "Sponsor"), pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement between us, our Advisor and our Sponsor (as amended, the "Advisory Agreement"). Our Advisor manages our operations and will manage our portfolio of core real estate properties and real estate related assets. Our Advisor also provides asset-management and other administrative services on our behalf. Our Advisor is paid certain fees as set forth in Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
We have investor relations personnel, but all related expenses are reimbursed by our Sponsor as part of the organizational and offering services they provide to us to manage our organization and the Registered Offering and to provide administrative investor relations. However, our Sponsor is then entitled to include the reimbursement of such expenses as part of our reimbursement to them of organization and offering costs, but reimbursement shall not exceed an amount equal to 3% of gross offering proceeds.
33
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
On June 24, 2015, our Sponsor purchased 10,000 shares of common stock for $100,000 and became the initial stockholder. Our Sponsor purchased another 10,000 shares of common stock on December 31, 2015 for $100,000. On July 15, 2015, we filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to register an initial public offering to offer a maximum of 90,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public (the "Primary Offering"). We also registered a maximum of 10,000,000 shares of common stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan (the "Registered DRP Offering" and together with the Primary Offering, the "Registered Offering"). The SEC declared our registration statement effective on June 1, 2016 and we commenced the sale of our shares to the public on July 20, 2016. Pursuant to our Registered Offering, we do not retain a broker-dealer to offer our shares. Rather, we offer shares of our Class C common stock directly to the public.
Under applicable SEC rules, the current registration statement for the Registered Offering was scheduled to terminate on June 1, 2019, unless we filed a new registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC prior to such date to extend the Registered Offering in accordance with Rule 415 of the Securities Act. On May 24, 2019, we filed a new registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC so that we may continue to offer shares of our Class C common stock. Our current registration statement on Form S-11 will terminate when the new registration statement is declared effective by the SEC. We reserve the right to terminate the Registered Offering at any time, and will terminate the Registered Offering if we sell our maximum offering amount of Class C common stock. If we terminate the Registered Offering, we will notify stockholders by filing a prospectus supplement with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Registered Offering must be registered in every state in which we offer or sell our shares and, as a result, we are also required to renew the registration statement for the Registered Offering annually or file a new registration statement to continue the Registered Offering. Therefore, we may have to stop selling shares in any state in which our registration for the Registered Offering is not renewed or otherwise extended.
On August 11, 2017, we began offering up to 100,000,000 shares of Class S common stock exclusively to non-U.S. Persons as defined under Rule 903 promulgated under the Securities Act pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and in accordance with Regulation S of the Securities Act (the "Class S Offering" and, together with the Registered Offering, the "Offerings"). The Class S common stock has similar features and rights as the Class C common stock, including with respect to voting and liquidation except that the Class S common stock offered in the Class S Offering may be sold through brokers or other persons who may be paid upfront and deferred selling commissions and fees. We reserve the right to terminate the Class S Offering at any time.
On January 11, 2019, our board of directors approved and established an estimated net asset value ("NAV") per share of our common stock in the Offering of $10.16 (unaudited). Effective January 14, 2019, the purchase price per share of our common stock in the Offerings increased from $10.05 (unaudited) to $10.16 (unaudited).
We expect to use substantially all of the net proceeds from the Offerings to acquire and manage a portfolio of real estate investments. We intend to invest primarily in single tenant income-producing corporate properties which are leased to creditworthy tenants under long-term net leases. While our focus is on single tenant net leased properties, we plan to diversify our portfolio by geography, investment size and investment risk with the goal of acquiring a portfolio of income-producing real estate investments that provides attractive and stable returns to our stockholders. Although we are not limited as to the form our investments may take, our investments in real estate will generally constitute acquiring fee title or interest in entities that own and operate real estate.
Our investment objectives and policies may be amended or changed at any time by our board of directors. Although we have no plans at this time to change any of our investment objectives, our board of directors may change any and all such investment objectives, including our focus on single tenant properties, if we believe such changes are in the best interest of our stockholders.
Rich Uncles NNN REIT Operator, LLC, our Advisor, makes recommendations on all investments to our board of directors. All proposed real estate investments must be approved by at least a majority of our board of directors.
REIT I Portfolio
On January 14, 2019, Rich Uncles Real Estate Investment Trust I ("REIT I"), an affiliated REIT, announced that it had retained a real estate financial advisor to assist it in evaluating strategic alternatives, which includes marketing its entire real estate properties portfolio (the "REIT I Portfolio") for disposition by sale, merger or other transaction structure. In connection with REIT I’s announcement, on March 19, 2019, we announced that we intend to explore a potential acquisition of REIT I or the REIT I Portfolio and that our board of directors has formed a special committee of the board of directors (the Special Committee), consisting solely of independent directors, that is evaluating the potential for a transaction with REIT I.
34
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
The members of the Special Committee, comprised of four of our six directors, have no affiliation with REIT I or the Sponsor. The special committee has engaged UBS Investment Bank as its financial advisor and Morris Manning and Martin, LLP as its legal advisor to assist the Special Committee as it conducts a review of a potential acquisition of REIT I or the REIT I Portfolio.
REIT I conducted a multi-round process whereby bidders submitted proposals to a special committee of the REIT I board of trust managers for preliminary review. As a result of such process, we and REIT I determined to commence an exclusive due diligence process. Both parties and their advisors are continuing to evaluate a potential transaction. The Special Committee has not set a definitive timetable for completion of its evaluation. There can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into any transaction with REIT I on terms acceptable to us or at all.
The Company
We are a publicly registered, non-exchange traded company dedicated to providing stockholders with dependable monthly dividends. We believe we are qualified to operate as a REIT, which requires us to annually distribute at least 90% of our taxable income (excluding net capital gains) in the form of dividends to our stockholders. Our monthly dividends are supported by the cash flow generated from real estate owned under long-term, net lease agreements with local, regional, and national commercial tenants and, to some extent, the waiver or deferral of asset management fees by our Sponsor. See "Distributions" below.
Our primary business consists of acquiring, financing and owning single-tenant retail, office, and industrial real estate leased to creditworthy tenants on long-term leases. We primarily generate revenues by leasing properties to tenants pursuant to net leases. As of June 30, 2019, we owned 24 operating properties in 13 states consisting of retail, office and industrial properties and a parcel of land which serves as an easement to one of our operating properties, a tenant-in-common real estate investment in a property located in Santa Clara, California in which we have an approximate 72.7% interest (the "TIC Interest") and a real estate investment in REIT I, an affiliated REIT, in which we have an approximate 4.8% interest. The net book value of these investments at June 30, 2019 was $233,852,427.
With respect to our diversified portfolio of 24 operating properties as of June 30, 2019:
• | Nine properties are retail properties which represent an approximate 16% of the portfolio, 10 properties are office properties which represent an approximate 52% of the portfolio, and five properties are industrial properties which represent an approximate 32% of the portfolio (expressed as a percentage of annualized base rent); |
• | Fully leased with an occupancy rate of 100%; |
• | Leased to 24 different commercial tenants doing business in 11 separate industries; |
• | Located in 13 states; |
• | With approximately 1,537,000 square feet of aggregate leasable space; |
• | With an average leasable space per property of approximately 64,000 square feet; approximately 20,000 square feet per retail property, approximately 62,000 square feet per office property, and approximately 147,000 square feet per industrial property; and |
• | With an outstanding mortgage note payable balance of $115,032,981, net of deferred financing costs. |
Of the 24 operating properties in the portfolio as of June 30, 2019, all 24, or 100%, are single-tenant properties. At June 30, 2019, all 24 properties were leased with a weighted average remaining lease term (excluding rights to extend a lease at the option of the tenant) of approximately 6.8 years.
As of June 30, 2019, we also have an approximate 4.8% interest in REIT I and an approximate 72.7% TIC Interest in a property located in Santa Clara, California. The remaining approximate 27.3% of undivided interest in the Santa Clara property is held by Hagg Lane II, LLC (an approximate 23.4%) and Hagg Lane III, LLC (an approximate 3.9%). The manager of Hagg Lane II, LLC and Hagg Lane III, LLC is a board member of the Sponsor.
35
Investment Strategy
Our investment strategy is to acquire single-tenant retail, office, and industrial real estate leased to creditworthy tenants on long-term leases. Our ideal portfolio is comprised of 40% office, 40% industrial, and 20% retail, with greater than 50% of our real estate leased to investment grade tenants as determined by one of the big three credit rating agencies (Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s or Fitch Group). When identifying new properties for investment, we generally focus on acquiring high-quality real estate that tenants consider important to the successful operation of their business. We generally seek to acquire real estate that has the following property characteristics:
• | freestanding and commercially-zoned with a single tenant; |
• | located in significant markets, which markets are identified and ranked based on several key demographic and real estate specific metrics such as population growth, income, unemployment, job growth, GDP growth, rent growth, and vacancy rates; |
• | located in strategic locations critical to generating revenue for the tenants that occupy them (i.e., the tenants need the properties in which they operate in order to conduct their businesses); |
• | located within attractive demographic areas relative to the business of our tenants and are generally fungible and have good visibility and easy access to major thoroughfares; |
• | with rental or lease payments that approximate or are lower than market rents; and |
• | can be purchased with the simultaneous execution or assumption of long-term, net lease agreements, offering both current income and the potential for future rent increases. |
Our independent directors have approved an allocation of up to $10 million to be invested in properties with less than five years of remaining lease term that can be purchased at a discount, repositioned by negotiating an extended lease term with the tenant and then either sold at a profit or held in the Company’s portfolio. Prior to purchasing such properties, our Advisor will assess the expected probability of obtaining an extended lease term from the tenant by evaluating, among other factors, the property’s performance (e.g. store sales and profitability), location, population in the immediate area, current rent in relation to the market, local competition, age of the property and quality of existing tenant improvements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Our proceeds from shares sold in the Offerings have been, and will continue to be our primary source of liquidity, primarily for (i) property acquisitions; (ii) capital expenditures; (iii) payment of principal on our outstanding indebtedness; and (iv) payment of fees to Advisor. Our cash needs for the purchase of real estate properties and other real estate investments will be funded primarily from the sale of our shares, including those offered for sale through our dividend reinvestment plan, and from debt proceeds.
Our aggregate borrowings, secured and unsecured, from financial institutions must be reasonable in relation to our tangible assets. Our charter limits the amount we may borrow to 50% of the cost of our tangible assets, calculated at cost before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves. Our borrowings on one or more individual properties may exceed 50% of their individual cost, so long as our overall leverage does not exceed 50%. We may exceed this limit only if any excess borrowing is approved by a majority of our conflicts committee and is disclosed to our stockholders in our next quarterly report, along with the justification for such excess. When calculating our use of leverage, we will not include borrowings relating to the initial acquisition of properties and that are outstanding under a revolving credit facility (or similar agreement). There is no limitation on the amount we may borrow for the purchase of any single asset. As of June 30, 2019, our leverage ratio was 47%.
We may borrow amounts from our Advisor or Sponsor if such loan is approved by a majority of our directors, including a majority of our conflicts committee, not otherwise interested in the transaction, as being fair, competitive, commercially reasonable and no less favorable to us than comparable loans between unaffiliated parties under the circumstances. Any such loan will be included in determining whether we have complied with the borrowing limit in our charter. Neither our Advisor nor our Sponsor has any obligation to make any loans to us.
Debt financing for acquisitions and investments may be obtained at the time an asset is acquired or an investment is made or at such later time as determined to be appropriate. In addition, debt financing may be used from time-to-time for property improvements, lease inducements, tenant improvements and other working capital needs.
36
As of June 30, 2019, the outstanding principal balances of our mortgage notes payable and the unsecured revolving credit facility, before unamortized deferred financing costs, were $117,132,085 and $0, respectively. The unsecured revolving credit facility, which was scheduled to mature on January 26, 2019, was extended to a maturity date of April 30, 2019. On April 30, 2019, the Company entered into a loan agreement for a new revolving credit facility for a maximum principal amount of $10,000,000, maturing on October 1, 2020 on similar terms to the expired facility. As of June 30, 2019, our pro-rata share (approximately 4.8%) of REIT I’s mortgage notes payable was $3,029,139 and our pro-rata share (approximately 72.7%) of the TIC Interest’s mortgage note payable was $10,225,651. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our outstanding indebtedness.
Capital Resources
Generally, our cash requirements for property acquisitions, debt payments, capital expenditures, and other investments will be funded by the Offerings and borrowings from financial institutions and mortgage indebtedness on our properties, and to a lesser extent, by internally generated funds. Our cash requirements for operating and interest expenses, repurchases of common stock and dividend distributions will generally be funded by internally generated funds and, to some extent, the waiver or deferral of asset management fees by our Sponsor. Offering proceeds may be used to fund repurchases of common stock and dividend distributions. If available, future sources of capital include proceeds from the Offerings, secured or unsecured borrowings from banks or other lenders and proceeds from the sale of properties, as well as undistributed funds from operations.
Cash Flow Summary
The following table summarizes our cash flow activity for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:
2019 | 2018 | ||||||
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 2,886,131 | $ | 1,318,015 | |||
Net cash used in investing activities | $ | (3,487,699 | ) | $ | (33,032,691 | ) | |
Net cash provided by financing activities | $ | 2,636,940 | $ | 31,813,510 |
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, net cash provided by operating activities was $2,886,131 and $1,318,015, respectively.
The cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily reflects adjustments to our net loss of $2,053,174 for net non-cash charges of $5,670,555 primarily related to depreciation and amortization, unrealized loss on interest rate swap valuation, amortization of deferred financing costs, distributions from investments in unconsolidated entities and stock compensation expense, partially offset by amortization of deferred rents, amortization of below-market lease intangibles and income from investment in unconsolidated entities. In addition, the net non-cash charges were partially offset by a net change in operating assets and liabilities of $731,250 during the six months ended June 30, 2019 due to increases in prepaid expenses and other assets and a decrease due to affiliates, offset in part by a decrease in tenant receivable and increases in accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities.
The cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily reflects adjustments to our net loss of $246,454 for net non-cash charges of $3,036,040 primarily related to depreciation and amortization, amortization of deferred financing costs, distributions from investments in unconsolidated entities and common stock compensation expense, partially offset by amortization of deferred rents, unrealized gain on interest rate swap valuation, amortization of below-market lease intangibles and income from investments in unconsolidated entities. In the addition, the net non-cash charges were also partially offset by a net change in operating assets and liabilities of $1,471,571 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 due to an increase in tenant receivables and decreases in accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities and due to affiliates.
We expect that our cash flows from operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities will continue to be positive in the next twelve months as a result of anticipated future acquisitions of real estate and the related operating contributions from such investments, as well as from a full year of operations for the properties which we acquired during 2018.
37
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $3,487,699 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and consisted of the following:
• | $3,387,699 payment of an obligation related to previously recorded tenant improvement; and |
• | $100,000 a refundable real estate purchase deposit; |
Net cash used in investing activities was $33,032,691 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and consisted of the following:
• | $31,103,596 for the acquisition of two properties; |
• | $749,095 of additions to existing real estate investments; |
• | $930,000 for the payment of acquisition fees to affiliate, and |

Results of Operations
As of June 30, 2019, we owned (i) 24 operating properties (ii) one parcel of land used as easement to one of our operating properties, (iii) an approximate 72.7% TIC Interest and (iv) an approximate 4.8% interest in REIT I, an affiliated REIT. We did not acquire any operating property during the first half of 2019 compared to two operating property acquisitions in the first half of 2018 (acquired March 29, 2018 and April 4, 2018). During 2018, we acquired a total of six operating properties.
We expect that rental income, tenant reimbursements, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense and asset management fees to affiliates will each increase in the next twelve months as a result of the 2018 acquisitions discussed above and our anticipated future acquisitions of real estate investments. Our results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 are not indicative of those expected in future periods as we are continuing to raise capital through the Offerings and expect to acquire additional properties.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2018
Rental Income
Rental income, including tenant reimbursements for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $5,896,266 and $4,383,966, respectively. The significant increase quarter-over-quarter primarily reflects rental income from the five operating properties acquired subsequent to March 31, 2018 (one in the second quarter and two each in the third and fourth quarters). Pursuant to most of our lease agreements, tenants are required to pay all or a portion of the property operating expenses. The annualized base rental income of the operating properties owned as of June 30, 2019 was $17,562,000.
Fees to Affiliates
Fees to affiliates, or asset management fees to affiliate, were $812,019 and $477,915, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 for our investments in operating property. The fee is equal to 0.1% of the total investment value of our properties on a monthly basis. The significant increase quarter-over-quarter was primarily due to the increase in the number of operating properties owned from 19 properties on April 1, 2018 to 24 properties as of June 30, 2019. In addition, we incurred asset management fees to the Advisor of $95,953 related to our approximate 72.7% TIC Interest during the each of the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, which amounts are reflected as a reduction of income recognized from investments in unconsolidated entities. In addition, we incurred $132,000 of operating expense reimbursement in the current year quarter which reflects the portion of the operating expenses incurred by our Advisor allocated to us. We did not incur a similar operating expense reimbursement in the prior year quarter as such reimbursement would have caused us to exceed the 2%/25% Limitation for operating expenses for the four fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2019.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses were $853,940 and $836,996 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase quarter-over-quarter was primarily due to an increase in legal and professional services fees and administrative costs, partially offset by a reduction in the number of investor relations personnel and related costs.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense was $2,391,495 and $1,712,469 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The purchase price of the acquired properties is allocated to tangible assets, identifiable intangibles and assumed liabilities and depreciated or amortized over their estimated useful lives. The significant increase quarter-over-quarter was primarily due to the five additional operating properties acquired from April through December 2018.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $2,076,725 and $1,203,260 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively (see Note 6 for the detail of the components of interest expense). The significant increase quarter-over-quarter was primarily due to the increase in the average principal balance of mortgage notes payable from approximately $83,475,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2018 to approximately $117,264,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2019. Average unsecured credit facility borrowings were approximately $4,500,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $2,035,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Property Expenses
Property expenses were $1,111,936 and $701,244 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These expenses primarily relate to property taxes and repairs and maintenance expenses. The significant increase quarter-over-quarter was primarily due to the five additional operating properties acquired from April through December 2018.
Expenses Reimbursed by Sponsor or Affiliates
Expenses reimbursed by our Sponsor or affiliates were $148,233 and $293,939 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the amounts reimbursed by the Sponsor for investor relations payroll costs were $148,233 and $242,416, respectively. The 2018 quarter also includes $51,523 of employment related legal fees which were reimbursed by the Sponsor. The reduction in reimbursements corresponds primarily to the reduced number of investor relations personnel and related costs as described above under general and administrative expenses.
39
Other Income
Interest income was $5,645 and $4,244 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Income from investments in unconsolidated entities was $55,955 and $38,606 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This represents our approximate 4.8% and 4.4% interest, respectively, in REIT I's results of operations and our approximate 72.7% TIC Interest in the Santa Clara property's results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018
Rental Income
Rental income, including tenant reimbursements for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $11,781,711 and $7,841,944, respectively. The significant increase period-over-period primarily reflects rental income from the six operating properties acquired in 2018. Pursuant to most of our lease agreements, tenants are required to pay all or a portion of the property operating expenses. The annualized base rental income of the operating properties owned as of June 30, 2019 was $17,562,000.
Fees to Affiliates
Fees to affiliates, or asset management fees to affiliate, were $1,624,037 and $879,230, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 for our investments in operating property. The fee is equal to 0.1% of the total investment value of our properties on a monthly basis. The significant increase period-over-period was primarily due to the increase in the number of operating properties owned from 18 properties on January 1, 2018 to 24 properties as of June 30, 2019. In addition, we incurred asset management fees to the Advisor of $95,953 related to our approximate 72.7% TIC Interest during each of the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, which amounts are reflected as a reduction of income recognized from investments in unconsolidated entities. In addition, we incurred $264,000 of operating expense reimbursement in the current year period which reflects the portion of the operating expenses incurred by our Advisor allocated to us. We did not incur a similar operating expense reimbursement in the prior year period as such reimbursement would have caused us to exceed the 2%/25% Limitation for operating expenses for the four fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2019.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses were $1,393,445 and $1,449,183 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The significant decrease period-over-period was primarily due to a reduction in the number of investor relations personnel and related costs, partially offset by an increase in legal and professional services fees and administrative costs.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense was $4,782,991 and $3,026,745 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The purchase price of the acquired properties is allocated to tangible assets, identifiable intangibles and assumed liabilities and depreciated or amortized over their estimated useful lives. The significant increase period-over-period was primarily due to the six additional operating properties acquired in 2018.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $4,237,075 and $2,293,876 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively (see Note 6 for the detail of the components of interest expense). The significant increase period-over-period was primarily due to the increase in the average principal balance of mortgage notes payable from approximately $76,392,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 to approximately $119,851,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2019, along with a loss on interest rate swaps (see Note 6 of Notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). Average unsecured credit facility borrowings were approximately $7,000,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $4,356,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
40
Property Expenses
Property expenses were $2,174,588 and $1,194,222 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These expenses primarily relate to property taxes and repairs and maintenance expenses. The significant increase period-over-period was primarily due to the six additional operating properties acquired in 2018.
Expenses Reimbursed by Sponsor or Affiliates
Expenses reimbursed by our Sponsor or affiliates were $236,232 and $653,453 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. For the first six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the amounts reimbursed by the Sponsor for investor relations payroll costs were $277,148 and $553,508, respectively. The expense reimbursements from the Sponsor during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 also include $(40,915) of refund to the Sponsor and $99,945 of employment related legal fees, respectively, which the Sponsor agreed to reimburse. The reduction in reimbursements corresponds primarily to the reduced number of investor relations personnel and related costs as described above under general and administrative expenses.
Other Income
Interest income was $11,031 and $7,920 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Income from investments in unconsolidated entities was $129,988 and $93,485 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This represents our approximate 4.8% and 4.4% interest, respectively, in REIT I's results of operations and our approximate 72.7% TIC Interest in the Santa Clara property's results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Organizational and Offering Costs
Our organizational and offering costs are paid by our Sponsor on our behalf. Offering costs include all expenses incurred in connection with the Offerings, including investor relations payroll expenses. Other organizational and offering costs include all expenses incurred in connection with our formation, including, but not limited to legal fees, federal and state filing fees, and other costs to incorporate.
During the primary Offerings, we are obligated to reimburse our Sponsor for organizational and offering costs related to the Offerings paid by them on our behalf provided such reimbursement would not exceed 3% of gross offering proceeds raised in the Offerings as of the date of the reimbursement.
As of June 30, 2019, we had not directly incurred any organizational and offering costs related to the Offerings as all such costs had been funded by our Sponsor. As a result, these organizational and offering costs related to the Offerings are not recorded in our financial statements as of June 30, 2019 other than to the extent of 3% of the gross offering proceeds. Through June 30, 2019, our Sponsor had incurred organizational and offering costs on our behalf in connection with our Offerings of $8,815,104. Through June 30, 2019, we had recorded $5,120,687 of organizational and offering costs, of which $27,969 was payable to the Sponsor or affiliates. See Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
41
Distributions
We intend to pay distributions on a monthly basis, and we paid our first distribution on July 11, 2016. The rate is determined by our board of directors based on our financial condition and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant. Our board of directors has not pre-established a percentage range of return for distributions to stockholders. We have not established a minimum distribution level, and our charter does not require that we make distributions to our stockholders other than as necessary to meet REIT qualification requirements.
During our offering stage, when we may raise capital more quickly than we acquire income producing assets, and from time-to-time during our operational state, we way not pay distributions from operations. In these cases, distributions may be paid in whole or in part from the waiver or deferral of fees otherwise due to our Advisor, if so elected by our Advisor. Historically, the sources of cash used to pay our distributions have been from net rental income received, along with the waiver and deferral of management fees and, to a limited extent, offering proceeds. The leases for certain of our real estate acquisitions may provide for rent abatements. These abatements are an inducement for the tenant to enter into or extend the term of its lease. In connection with the acquisition of some properties, we may be able to negotiate a reduced purchase price for the acquired property in an amount that equals the previously agreed-upon rent abatement. During the period of any rent abatement on properties that we acquire, we may be unable to fully fund our distributions from net rental income received and waivers or deferrals of Advisor asset management fees. In that event, we may expand the sources of cash used to fund our stockholder distributions to include proceeds from the sale of our common stock, but only during the periods, and up to the amounts, of any rent abatements where we are able to negotiate a reduced purchase price.

Distributions paid per share of Class S common stock are net of deferred selling commissions.
Going forward, we expect our board of directors to continue to declare cash distributions based on daily record dates and to pay these distributions on a monthly basis, and after our Offerings to continue to declare distributions based on a single record date as of the end of the month, and to pay these distributions on a monthly basis. Cash distributions will be determined by our board of directors based on our financial condition and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant. We have not established a minimum dividend or distribution level, and our charter does not require that we make dividends or distributions to our stockholders other than as necessary to meet REIT qualification requirements.

The above table does not include an approximate 72.7% TIC interest in a 91,740 square feet office property located Santa Clara, California and an approximate 4.8%, 4.8% and 4.4% interest, respectively, in REIT I, an affiliated REIT, as of June 30, 2019, December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively.
We have a very limited operating history. As of June 30, 2019, we had only acquired: (i) 24 operating properties; (ii) one parcel of land, which currently serves as an easement to one of our office properties; (iii) the TIC Interest and (iv) an approximate 4.8% interest in REIT I, an affiliated REIT. Therefore, we have limited operations. In evaluating these properties as potential acquisitions, including the determination of an appropriate purchase price to be paid for the properties, we considered a variety of factors, including the condition and financial performance of the properties, the terms of the existing leases and the creditworthiness of the tenants, property location, visibility and access, age of the properties, physical condition and curb appeal, neighboring property uses, local market conditions, including vacancy rates, area demographics, including trade area population and average household income and neighborhood growth patterns and economic conditions.
Other than as discussed below, we do not have other plans to incur any significant costs to renovate, improve or develop the properties. We believe that the properties are adequately insured. We have one tenant with a lease that provided for a tenant improvement allowance totaling $3,486,927. The majority of the related improvements were completed by June 30, 2019 and $3,387,699 was released to reimburse the tenant for these tenant improvements during the second quarter of 2019 under the terms of the lease agreement. As of June 30, 2019, there was a restricted cash deposit of $99,228 available to reimburse the tenant for the remaining tenant improvement under the terms of the lease agreement.

In addition, we have identified approximately $863,000 of roof replacement, exterior painting and sealing and parking lot repairs/restriping that are expected to be completed in 2019. Approximately $197,000 of these improvements are expected to be recoverable from the tenant through their operating expense reimbursements. The remaining costs of approximately $666,000 that are not recoverable from tenants are expected to be capitalized. These improvements will be funded from operating cash flows or Offering proceeds.
Recent Market Conditions
Currently, both the investing and leasing environments are highly competitive. While there has been an increase in the amount of capital flowing into the U.S. real estate markets, which resulted in an increase in real estate values in certain markets, the uncertainty regarding the economic and political environment has made businesses reluctant to make long-term commitments or changes in their business plans. Recent acceleration of the trade war between the U.S. and China has increased the level of uncertainty and could ultimately lead to recession. The inverted yield curve could also be an indicator of a future recession. Potential declines 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, making it more difficult for us to pay dividends or meet our debt service obligations on debt financing.
Volatility in global markets and changing political environments can cause fluctuations in the performance of the U.S. commercial real estate markets. Economic slowdowns in Europe, China and Japan are likely to negatively impact growth of the U.S. economy. Political uncertainties both home and abroad may discourage business investment in real estate and other capital spending. Possible future declines in rental rates 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 investment properties. Increases in the cost of financing due to higher interest rates may cause difficulty in refinancing debt obligations prior to maturity at terms as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. Market conditions can change quickly, potentially negatively impacting the value of real estate investments. Management continuously reviews our investment and debt financing strategies to optimize our portfolio and the cost of our debt exposure.
Recent financial conditions affecting commercial real estate have been stable with low treasury rates and increased lending from banks, insurance companies and commercial mortgage backed securities ("CMBS") conduits. Nevertheless, the debt market remains sensitive to the macro environment, such as Federal Reserve policy, market sentiment or regulatory factors affecting the banking and CMBS industries. While we currently expect that financial conditions will remain favorable during 2019, if they were to deteriorate, we may experience more stringent lending criteria, which may affect our ability to finance certain property acquisitions or refinance any debt at maturity. Additionally, for properties for which we are able to obtain financing, the interest rates and other terms on such loans may be unacceptable. We expect to manage the current mortgage lending environment by considering alternative lending sources, including securitized debt, fixed rate loans, borrowings on a line of credit, short-term variable rate loans, assumed mortgage loans in connection with property acquisitions, interest rate lock or swap agreements, or any combination of the foregoing.
Commercial real estate fundamentals continue to remain favorable, as job creation has supported gains in office absorption, retail sales and warehouse distribution. Although commercial property construction activity has increased, it remains near historic lows; as a result, incremental demand growth has helped to reduce vacancy rates and support modest rental growth. Improving fundamentals have resulted in gains in property values. However, future increases in interest rates or a downturn in the economy could have a negative impact on property values.
Election as a REIT
We elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes under the Code beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2016. We believe we will continue to qualify as a REIT. To qualify and maintain status as a REIT, we must meet certain requirements relating to our organization, sources of income, nature of assets, distributions of income to our stockholders and recordkeeping. As a REIT, we generally would not be subject to federal income tax on taxable income that we distribute to our stockholders so long as we distribute at least 90% of our annual taxable income (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains).
If we fail to qualify as a REIT for any reason in a taxable year and applicable relief provisions do not apply, we will be subject to tax, including any applicable alternative minimum tax, on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. We will not be able to deduct distributions paid to our stockholders in any year in which we fail to qualify as a REIT. We also will be disqualified for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless we are entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions. Such an event could materially 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 for
45
federal income tax purposes. No provision for federal income taxes has been made in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We will be subject to certain state and local taxes related to the operations of properties in certain locations. We are subject to certain state and local taxes related to the operations of properties in certain locations, which have been provided for in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our accounting policies have been established to conform with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. A discussion of the accounting policies that management considers critical in that they involve significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates is included under "Critical Accounting Policies" in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2019. There have been no significant changes to our policies during the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Commitments and Contingencies
We may be subject to certain commitments and contingencies with regard to certain transactions (see Note 9 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for discussion of commitment and contingencies).
Related-Party Transactions and Agreements
We have entered into an Advisory Agreement with our Advisor whereby we have agreed to pay certain fees to, or reimburse certain expenses of, our Advisor or our affiliates, such as acquisition fees and expenses, organization and offering costs, asset management fees, and reimbursement of certain operating costs (see Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details of the various related-party transactions and agreements).
Subsequent Events
See Note 10 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for events that occurred subsequent to June 30, 2019 through the filing date of this report.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for recent accounting pronouncements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that had or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources as of June 30, 2019.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
Not required as we are a Smaller Reporting Company.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file and submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our principal
46
executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management recognizes that any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain judgments and assumptions and cannot provide absolute assurance that our objectives will be met. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Similarly, an evaluation of controls cannot provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
During April 2019 we issued a total of 4,921 shares of Class C common stock to the four independent directors for their service as board members and during May 2019 we issued an additional 492 shares of Class C common stock to two of the independent directors for their service as committee chairs. Such issuances were made in reliance on the exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we also issued 33,931 shares of Class S common stock in the Class S Offering for aggregate gross offering proceeds of $344,745. Of such issuances, 503 shares for gross offering proceeds of $5,096 were made pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan applicable to our Class S common stock in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under and in accordance with Regulation S of the Securities Act.
Use of Proceeds from Sales of Registered Securities
On June 1, 2016, our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-205684) (the "Registration Statement"), covering an initial public offering to offer a maximum of 90,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public in the Primary Offering was declared effective under the Securities Act. Pursuant to the Registration Statement, we also registered a maximum of 10,000,000 shares of common stock pursuant to our Registered DRP Offering. The shares of common stock covered by the Registration Statement were renamed and re-designated as Class C shares of common stock pursuant to amendments to our charter that became effective in August 2017.
The Registered Offering commenced on July 20, 2016. Under applicable SEC rules, the current registration statement for the Registered Offering was scheduled to terminate on June 1, 2019, unless the Company filed a new registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC prior to such date to extend the Registered Offering in accordance with Rule 415 of the Securities Act. On May 24, 2019, the Company filed a new registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC so that the Company may continue to offer shares of its Class C common stock. The Company’s current registration statement on Form S-11 will terminate when the new registration statement is declared effective by the SEC. As required by some states, the Company is also required to renew the registration statement for the Registered Offering annually or file a new registration statement to continue the Registered Offering Our board of directors may terminate the Registered Offering at any time. Our board of directors will adjust the price of
47
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION (continued)
the Registered Offering shares during the course of the Registered Offering as described in the registration statement, as amended, for the Registered Offering.
Through June 30, 2019, we had sold 16,834,959 shares of Class C common stock in the Registered Offering, including 1,263,675 shares of Class C common stock sold under our Registered DRP Offering, for aggregate gross offering proceeds of $169,200,530.
Through June 30, 2019, we have paid $5,120,687 to our Sponsor as reimbursement for organizational and offering costs, which reimbursement is subject to the 3% of gross offering proceeds limitation.
From the commencement of the Registered Offering through June 30, 2019, the net offering proceeds to us, after deducting the reimbursable organizational and offering expenses incurred as described above, were approximately $164,124,514, including net offering proceeds from our Registered DRP Offering of $12,723,556. Substantially all of these proceeds, along with proceeds from the Class S Offering and debt financing, were used to make approximately $251,697,000 of investments in real estate properties, including the purchase price of our investments, deposits paid for future acquisitions, acquisition fees and expenses, and costs of leveraging each real estate investment. Of the use of the offering proceeds described in the prior statement, $6,293,558 and $652,150 were used to pay acquisition fees and financing coordination fees to our Advisor, respectively. Our Sponsor was reimbursed for $5,092,718 of organizational and offering costs. See Note 8 of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for details about fees paid to affiliates. In addition, through June 30, 2019, $288,370 of proceeds from the Offerings were used to fund stockholder distributions in connection with rent abatements as described above. See Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Distributions for a description of the sources that have been used to fund our distributions.
Issuer Redemptions of Equity Securities

Totals | 222,561 | $ | 2,217,666 |
(1) | During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we agreed to repurchase 100% of all shares of Class C common stock requested for repurchase. The shares of Class C common stock requested for repurchase in June 2019 were repurchased in July 2019. We generally repurchase shares approximately three business days following the end of the applicable month in which requests were received. |
(2) | Following our calculation of NAV and NAV per share of $10.16 (unaudited), which our board approved on January 11, 2019 and calculated as of December 31, 2018, we repurchase shares based on NAV per share. Share repurchases for any 12-month period will not exceed 2% of our aggregate NAV per month, 5% of our aggregate NAV per quarter, or 20% of our aggregate NAV per year. These repurchase limits are described in greater detail under Share Repurchase Program - Limitations on Repurchase in Part II, Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the SEC on March 29, 2019. However, we will only repurchase Class C or Class S shares if, among other conditions, in the opinion of our Advisor, we have sufficient reserves with which to repurchase such shares and at the same time maintain our then-current plan of operations. |
Our board may amend, suspend or terminate our Class C share repurchase program or Class S share repurchase program upon 30 days’ notice to Class C stockholders or Class S stockholders, respectively, if the board believes such action is in our and such stockholders’ best interests, including because share repurchases place an undue burden on our liquidity, adversely affect our operations, adversely affect stockholders whose shares are not repurchased, or if the board determines that the funds otherwise available to fund our share repurchases are needed for other purposes. Our board may also amend, suspend or terminate our Class C share repurchase program or Class S share repurchase program due to changes in law or regulation, or if the board becomes aware of undisclosed material information that it believes should be publicly disclosed before shares are repurchased.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION (continued)
Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities-Share Repurchase Program of our Annual Report as discussed above. See also Part II, Item 5. Other Information below in this report for information about an amendment to our share repurchase program.
Item 5. Other Information
In order to protect the interests of long-term investors, on August 7, 2019, the board of directors amended the share repurchase program for the Class C common stock to require that shares be held for 90 days after they have been issued to the applicable stockholder before the Company will accept requests for repurchase. This policy is being implemented to:
• | avoid disruption to cash management and real estate investment activity; |
• | reduce the cost burden incurred from short-term share repurchase requests; and |
• | protect the Company, its stockholders and corresponding financial institutions from fraudulent cyber activities. |
In accordance with the terms of the share repurchase program, this amendment will become effective 30 days after this Form 10-Q and a related supplement to the prospectus for the Registered Offering are filed with the SEC.
On August 7, 2019, the Board of Directors approved a form of indemnification agreement (the “Indemnification Agreement”) to be entered into between the Company and each officer and director of the Company (each, an “indemnitee”). The Company anticipates that it will enter into substantially similar Indemnification Agreements with any new directors and officers. The Indemnification Agreement requires the Company to indemnify the indemnitee, subject to certain conditions and exceptions specified in the Indemnification Agreement, against all judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement and for all expenses, including attorneys’ fees, in each case actually and reasonably incurred by the indemnitee or on its behalf in any covered proceeding by reason of such indemnitee’s service to the Company or any other company or enterprise to which service is or was provided by the indemnitee at the Company’s request. In addition, the Indemnification Agreement provides for the advancement of expenses incurred by the indemnitee in connection with any covered proceeding, subject to the indemnitee’s obligation to repay such expenses in the event it is ultimately determined that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under the circumstances provided therein. The rights provided by the Indemnification Agreement are in addition to any other rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses to which the indemnitee may be entitled under applicable law, the Company’s charter or bylaws, or otherwise.
On August 9, 2019, the Advisory Agreement was amended to delete the subordinated participation fee from the agreement. On August 9, 2019, the board of directors of the Company, including all of the independent directors, also approved renewing the Advisory Agreement, which was scheduled to expire on August 11, 2019 to December 31, 2019.
