CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2013
(unaudited)



1.
ORGANIZATION
KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on October 8, 2008 as a Maryland corporation and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2010. The Company conducts its business primarily through KBS Strategic Opportunity Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed on December 10, 2008. The Company is the sole general partner of, and owns a 0.1% partnership interest in, the Operating Partnership. KBS Strategic Opportunity Holdings LLC (“REIT Holdings”), a Delaware limited liability company formed on December 9, 2008, owns the remaining 99.9% interest in the Operating Partnership and is its sole limited partner. The Company is the sole member and manager of REIT Holdings.
Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, the business of the Company is externally managed by KBS Capital Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”), an affiliate of the Company, pursuant to an advisory agreement the Company renewed with the Advisor on October 8, 2012 (the “Advisory Agreement”). The Advisor conducts the Company’s operations and manages its portfolio of real estate-related loans, opportunistic real estate, real estate-related debt securities and other real estate-related investments. The Advisor owns 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
On January 8, 2009, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to offer a minimum of 250,000 shares and a maximum of 140,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public (the “Offering”), of which 100,000,000 shares were registered in a primary offering and 40,000,000 shares were registered to be sold under the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan. The SEC declared the Company’s registration statement effective on November 20, 2009. The Company ceased offering shares of common stock in its primary offering on November 14, 2012 and continues to offer shares under its dividend reinvestment plan.
The Company intends to use substantially all of the net proceeds from the Offering to invest in and manage a diverse portfolio of real estate-related loans, opportunistic real estate, real estate-related debt securities and other real estate-related investments. Such investments have included, and are expected to continue to include, non-performing loans (which have resulted in, and may continue to result in, the acquisition of the underlying property securing the loan through foreclosure or similar processes), non-stabilized or undeveloped properties, commercial mortgage backed securities (“CMBS”) and other opportunistic real estate-related assets. The Company may also invest in entities that make similar investments. As of June 30, 2013, the Company owned nine office properties, one office campus consisting of nine office buildings, one office portfolio consisting of four office buildings and 43 acres of undeveloped land, one office portfolio consisting of three office properties, one industrial/flex property, one retail property, 1,375 acres of undeveloped land, two investments in CMBS, three first mortgage loans and one investment in an unconsolidated joint venture.
The Company sold 56,584,976 shares of common stock in its primary offering for gross offering proceeds of $561.7 million.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information as contained within the FASB ASC and the rules and regulations of the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair and consistent presentation of the results for such periods. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, REIT Holdings, the Operating Partnership and their direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, and joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of the prior period.
Segments
The Company has invested in non-performing loans, opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets and it has classified its operations by investment type: real estate-related and real estate. In general, the Company intends to hold its investments in non‑performing loans, opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets for capital appreciation. Traditional performance metrics of non-performing loans, opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets may not be meaningful as these investments are non-stabilized and do not provide a consistent stream of interest income or rental revenue. These investments exhibit similar long-term financial performance and have similar economic characteristics. These investments typically involve a higher degree of risk and do not provide a constant stream of ongoing cash flows. As a result, the Company’s management views non-performing loans, opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets as similar investments. Substantially all of its revenue and net income (loss) is from non-performing loans, opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets, and therefore, the Company currently aggregates its operating segments into one reportable business segment.
Per Share Data
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock equals basic net income (loss) per share of common stock as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Distributions declared per share were $0.062 during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and $0.025 and $0.048 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. No distributions were declared during the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Updates
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“ASU No. 2013-02”). ASU No. 2013-02 requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. An entity is also required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by respective line items of net income only if the amount reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail about these amounts, such as when a portion of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to a balance sheet account instead of directly to income or expense in the same reporting period. ASU No. 2013-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2012. The adoption of ASU No. 2013-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Operating Leases
Certain of the Company’s real estate properties are leased to tenants under operating leases for which the terms and expirations vary. As of June 30, 2013, the leases, excluding options to extend, had remaining terms of up to 10.5 years with a weighted-average remaining term of 3.6 years. Some of the leases have provisions to extend the lease agreements, options for early termination after paying a specified penalty, rights of first refusal to purchase the property at competitive market rates, and other terms and conditions as negotiated. The Company retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to tenants. Generally, upon the execution of a lease, the Company requires a security deposit from tenants in the form of a cash deposit and/or a letter of credit. The amount required as a security deposit varies depending upon the terms of the respective leases and the creditworthiness of the tenant, but generally are not significant amounts. Therefore, exposure to credit risk exists to the extent that a receivable from a tenant exceeds the amount of its security deposit. Security deposits received in cash and assumed in real estate acquisitions or foreclosures related to tenant leases are included in security deposits and other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and totaled $2.7 million and $1.4 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized deferred rent from tenants of $2.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively, net of lease incentive amortization. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the cumulative deferred rent receivable balance, including unamortized lease incentive receivables, was $4.8 million and $2.4 million, respectively, and is included in rents and other receivables on the accompanying balance sheets. The Company records property operating expense reimbursements due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes, and other recoverable costs in the period the related expenses are incurred.
As of June 30, 2013, the future minimum rental income from the Company’s properties under non-cancelable operating leases was as follows (in thousands):

Geographic Concentration Risk
As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s real estate investments in Texas, Colorado and Washington represented 31.4%, 12.7% and 11.0% of the Company’s total assets, respectively.  As a result, the geographic concentration of the Company’s portfolio makes it particularly susceptible to adverse economic developments in the Texas, Colorado and Washington real estate markets.  Any adverse economic or real estate developments in these markets, such as business layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, relocations of businesses, changing demographics and other factors, or any decrease in demand for office space resulting from the local business climate, could adversely affect the Company’s operating results and its ability to make distributions to stockholders.

(1) Outstanding principal balance as of June 30, 2013 represents original principal balance outstanding under the loan, increased for any subsequent fundings, including interest income deferred until maturity.
(2) Book value of the real estate loans receivable represents outstanding principal balance adjusted for unamortized acquisition discounts, origination fees and direct origination and acquisition costs and additional interest accretion.
(3) Contractual interest rates are the stated interest rates on the face of the loans. Annualized effective interest rates are calculated as the actual interest income recognized in 2013, using the interest method annualized (if applicable) and divided by the average amortized cost basis of the investment. The annualized effective interest rates and contractual interest rates presented are as of June 30, 2013.
(4) Upon acquisition, the Company did not expect the non-performing mortgage to perform in accordance with its contractual terms, including the repayment of the principal amount outstanding under the loan, the payment of interest at the stated amount on the face of the note or the repayment of the loan upon its maturity date. Accordingly, the Company placed the loan on non-accrual status and did not record any interest income relating to this loan during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
(5) Under the terms of the Ponte Palmero First Mortgage, the loan bears interest as follows: a floating rate of 1,000 basis points over one-month LIBOR during the first 12 months of the term of the loan, but at no point shall the interest rate be less than 11.0%; a floating rate of 1,200 basis points over one-month LIBOR during the 13th through 24th months of the term of the loan, but at no point shall the interest rate be less than 13.0%; a floating rate of 1,700 basis points over one-month LIBOR, during the 25th through 36th months of the term of the loan, but at no point shall the interest rate be less than 18.0%. The borrower is required to make monthly interest payments equal to a base interest rate of 500 basis points over one-month LIBOR, but at no point shall the base interest rate be less than 6.0%. The outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and the deferred interest, which shall accrue monthly but may not be compounded, are due at maturity. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized $2.9 million of interest income from its investment in the Ponte Palmero First Mortgage Loan, including $0.9 million of the contractual interest that is deferred until maturity.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company determined the fair value of the fixed rate CMBS to be $2.6 million, resulting in unrealized gains of $4,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairments on its real estate securities. It is difficult to predict the timing or magnitude of other-than-temporary impairments and significant judgments are required in determining impairments, including, but not limited to, assumptions regarding estimated prepayments, losses and changes in interest rates. As a result, actual realized losses could materially differ from these estimates.

(1) Contractual interest rate represents the interest rate in effect under the loan as of June 30, 2013. Effective interest rate is calculated as the actual interest rate in effect as of June 30, 2013 (consisting of the contractual interest rate and contractual floor rates), using interest rate indices at June 30, 2013, where applicable.
(2) Represents the initial maturity date or the maturity date as extended as of June 30, 2013; subject to certain conditions, the maturity dates of certain loans may be extended beyond the date shown.
(3) On November 23, 2011, the Richardson Joint Venture entered into a four-year mortgage loan for borrowings up to $46.1 million. At closing, $29.5 million (the “Initial Funding”) had been disbursed to the Richardson Joint Venture and $16.6 million (the “Holdback”) remained available for future disbursements, subject to certain conditions set forth in the loan agreement. On January 11, 2013, the Company sold one of the properties included in the Richardson Portfolio and repaid $5.2 million of the Initial Funding. As of June 30, 2013, the outstanding principal balance was $29.9 million and $10.0 million of the Holdback remains available for future disbursements, subject to certain conditions set forth in the loan agreement. Interest on the Initial Funding is calculated at a fixed rate of 6.25% during the initial term of the loan. Interest on the Holdback is calculated at a variable annual rate of 400 basis points over three-month LIBOR, but at no point shall the interest rate be less than 6.25%.
(4) On February 22, 2013, the Company entered into a four-year mortgage loan for borrowings up to $53.0 million. As of June 30, 2013, $44.5 million had been disbursed to the Company and the remaining $8.5 million is available for future disbursements to be used for tenant improvements, leasing commissions and capital improvements, subject to certain conditions contained in the loan documents.

Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility
On May 1, 2013, the Company, through its indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a four-year secured mortgage loan with Bank of America, N.A., an unaffiliated lender, for borrowings of up to $72.5 million secured by the 1800 West Loop Building and the Iron Point Business Park (the “Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility”). The Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility is comprised of $59.5 million of revolving debt and $13.0 million of non-revolving debt available to be used for tenant improvements, leasing commissions and capital improvements, subject to certain terms and conditions contained in the loan documents. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had drawn $22.0 million of revolving debt. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had $50.5 million available for future disbursements consisting of $37.5 million of revolving debt and $13.0 million of non-revolving debt, subject to certain terms and conditions contained in the loan documents. The Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility matures on May 1, 2017, with an option to extend the maturity date to May 1, 2018, subject to certain conditions contained in the loan documents.  The Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility bears interest at a floating rate of 225 basis points over one-month LIBOR. Monthly payments are initially interest only. Beginning June 1, 2016, and to the extent that there are amounts outstanding under the non-revolving portion of the loan, monthly payments will include interest and principal amortization payments of $80,000 per month. The remaining principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees will be due at maturity.  The Company has the right to prepay the loan in whole at any time or in part from time to time, subject to the payment of certain expenses potentially incurred by the lender as a result of the prepayment and subject to certain other conditions contained in the loan documents.
KBS SOR Properties, LLC, a separate wholly owned subsidiary of the Company through which the Company indirectly owns all of its real estate assets (“KBS SOR Properties”), provided a limited guaranty of the Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility with respect to certain potential deficiencies, losses or damages suffered by the lender resulting from certain intentional acts committed by the borrower or KBS SOR Properties in violation of the loan documents. KBS SOR Properties also provided a guaranty of the principal balance and any interest or other sums outstanding under the Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility in the event of certain bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings involving the borrower.

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES
Under GAAP, the Company is required to measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, the Company is required to measure other financial instruments and balances at fair value on a non-recurring basis (e.g., carrying value of impaired real estate loans receivable and long-lived assets). Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model‑derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The fair value for certain financial instruments is derived using 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 instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the fair value:
Cash and cash equivalents, rent and other receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities: These balances     approximate their fair values due to the short maturities of these items.
Real estate loans receivable: The Company’s real estate loans receivable are presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at their amortized cost net of recorded loan loss reserves and not at fair value. The fair values of real estate loans receivable are estimated using an internal valuation model that considers the expected cash flows for the loans, underlying collateral values (for collateral dependent loans) and estimated yield requirements of institutional investors for loans with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs.
Real estate securities: These investments are classified as available-for-sale and are presented at fair value.  The Company obtained the fair value of its CMBS investments, which are not traded in active markets, from its investment custodian which uses quoted market prices for identical or comparable instruments, rather than direct observations of quoted prices in active markets.  Fair value obtained from this professional pricing source can also be based on pricing models whereby all significant observable inputs, including maturity dates, issue dates, settlement dates benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issue spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers or other market related data, are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset.  The Company validates the fair values provided by its investment custodian by comparing the fair values against quoted market prices provided by various pricing services.  The Company classifies these inputs as Level 2 inputs.    
Notes payable: The fair values of the Company’s notes payable are 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.
The following were the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, which carrying amounts do not approximate the fair values (in thousands):

Disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to the Company as of the period end and requires a significant amount of judgment. Despite increased capital market and credit market activity, transaction volume for certain financial instruments remains relatively low. This has made the estimation of fair values difficult and, therefore, both the actual results and the Company’s estimate of value at a future date could be materially different.

These amounts totaled $33,000 and $20,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $58,000 and $36,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and were the only employee costs reimbursed under the Advisory Agreement during these periods. The Company will not reimburse for employee costs in connection with services for which the Advisor earns acquisition, origination or disposition fees (other than reimbursement of travel and communication expenses) or for the salaries or benefits the Advisor or its affiliates may pay to the Company’s executive officers.
(3) On June 28, 2013, the Advisor assigned the purchase and sale agreement related to the Central Building for $1.8 million to the Company, which is the amount of the deposit paid by the Advisor under the purchase and sale agreement, and on July 10, 2013, the Company completed the acquisition of the Central Building, see "-Subsequent Events - Acquisitions Subsequent to June 30, 2013 - Central Building."

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Economic Dependency
The Company is dependent on the Advisor for certain services that are essential to the Company, including 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 the Advisor is unable to provide these services, the Company will be required to obtain such services from other sources.
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 as of June 30, 2013. 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 properties could result in future environmental liabilities.
Legal Matters
From time to time, the Company is a party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Management is not aware of any legal proceedings of which the outcome is probable or reasonably possible to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition, which would require accrual or disclosure of the contingency and the possible range of loss. Additionally, the Company has not recorded any loss contingencies related to legal proceedings in which the potential loss is deemed to be remote.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluates subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.
Acquisitions Subsequent to June 30, 2013
Central Building
On July 10, 2013, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, acquired an office building containing 191,784 rentable square feet located on approximately 0.6 acres of land in Seattle, Washington (the “Central Building”).  The seller is not affiliated with the Company or KBS Capital Advisors LLC, the Company’s external advisor. The purchase price of the Central Building was $34.5 million plus closing costs.  The Company funded the purchase of the Central Building with proceeds from its initial public offering, but may later place mortgage debt on this property.  The Central Building was built in 1907 and renovated from 2002 through 2007 and was 82% leased at acquisition. The Company has yet to allocate the purchase price of the property to the fair value of the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities.

On July 11, 2013, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, acquired an office building containing 179,872 rentable square feet located on approximately 0.4 acres of land in Boston, Massachusetts (“50 Congress Street”).  The seller is not affiliated with the Company or KBS Capital Advisors LLC, the Company’s external advisor. The purchase price of 50 Congress Street was $51.0 million plus closing costs.  The Company funded the purchase of 50 Congress Street with proceeds from its initial public offering, but may later place mortgage debt on this property.  50 Congress Street was built in two phases in 1910 and 1915 and was 88% leased at acquisition.  The Company has yet to allocate the purchase price of the property to the fair value of the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities.
Financings Subsequent to June 30, 2013
1635 N. Cahuenga Mortgage Loan
On July 24, 2013, the joint venture that owns the 1635 N. Cahuenga Building entered into a three-year secured mortgage loan with Bank of America, N.A., an unaffiliated lender, for borrowings of up to $6.7 million secured by the 1635 N. Cahuenga Building (the “1635 N. Cahuenga Mortgage Loan”). The Company owns a 70% equity interest in the joint venture that owns the 1635 N. Cahuenga Building. As of August 2, 2013, $4.7 million had been disbursed to the joint venture with the remaining $2.0 million available for future disbursements, subject to certain terms and conditions contained in the loan documents. The 1635 N. Cahuenga Mortgage Loan matures on August 1, 2016, with an option to extend the maturity date to August 1, 2018 subject to certain conditions contained in the loan documents.  The 1635 N. Cahuenga Mortgage Loan bears interest at a floating rate of 235 basis points over one-month LIBOR. The joint venture has the right to prepay the loan in whole at any time or in part from time to time, subject to the payment of certain expenses potentially incurred by the lender as a result of the prepayment and subject to certain other conditions contained in the loan documents.

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

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. and the notes thereto. As used herein, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and, as required by context, KBS Strategic Opportunity Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership, which we refer to as the “Operating Partnership,” and to their subsidiaries.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “should” or similar expressions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law.
The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all of the risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:
We have a limited operating history. This inexperience makes our future performance difficult to predict.
All of our executive officers and some of our directors and other key real estate and debt finance professionals are also officers, directors, managers, key professionals and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor, our dealer manager and other KBS‑affiliated entities. As a result, they face conflicts of interest, including significant conflicts created by our advisor’s compensation arrangements with us and other KBS‑advised programs and investors and conflicts in allocating time among us and these other programs and investors. These conflicts could result in unanticipated actions. Fees paid to our advisor in connection with transactions involving the origination, acquisition and management of our investments are based on the cost of the investment, not on the quality of the investment or services rendered to us. This arrangement could influence our advisor to recommend riskier transactions to us.
We pay substantial fees to and expenses of our advisor and its affiliates and, in connection with our initial public offering, we paid substantial fees to our dealer manager and participating broker-dealers. These payments increase the risk that our stockholders will not earn a profit on their investment in us and increase our stockholders’ risk of loss.
We have paid distributions from financings and expect that in the future we may not pay distributions solely from our cash flow from operations or gains from asset sales. To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations or gains from asset sales, we will have less funds available for investment in loans, properties and other assets, the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced and subsequent investors may experience dilution.
We currently have substantial uninvested proceeds raised from our initial public offering, which we are seeking to invest on attractive terms. If we are unable to find suitable investments, we may not be able to achieve our investment objectives or pay distributions. Delays in finding suitable investments may adversely affect stockholder returns.
Continued disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions could adversely affect our ability to implement our business strategy and generate returns to stockholders.
We have invested, and may continue to invest, in residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations and other structured debt securities as well as real estate-related loans. Many of these types of investments have become illiquid and considerably less valuable over the past three years. This reduced liquidity and decrease in value caused financial hardship for many investors in these assets. Many investors did not fully appreciate the risks of such investments. Our investments in these assets may not be successful.
We have focused, and expect to continue to focus, our investments in non-performing real estate and real estate‑related loans, real estate-related loans secured by non-stabilized assets and real estate-related debt securities in distressed debt, which involve more risk than investments in performing real estate and debt.

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


We cannot predict with any certainty how much, if any, of our dividend reinvestment plan proceeds will be available for general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, the redemption of shares under our share redemption program, future funding obligations under any real estate loans receivable we acquire, the funding of capital expenditures on our real estate investments, or the repayment of debt. If such funds are not available from the dividend reinvestment plan offering, then we may have to use a greater proportion of our cash flow from operations to meet these cash requirements, which would reduce cash available for distributions and could limit our ability to redeem shares under our share redemption program.
Our opportunistic investment strategy involves a higher risk of loss than would a strategy of investing in some other types of real estate and real estate-related investments.
We depend on tenants for our revenue and, accordingly, our revenue is dependent upon the success and economic viability of our tenants. Revenues from our property investments could decrease due to a reduction in tenants (caused by factors including, but not limited to, tenant defaults, tenant insolvency, early termination of tenant leases and non‑renewal of existing tenant leases) and/or lower rental rates, limiting our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.
All forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risks identified in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Overview
We were formed on October 8, 2008 as a Maryland corporation, elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2010 and intend to operate in such manner. On January 8, 2009, we filed a registration statement on Form S‑11 with the SEC to offer a minimum of 250,000 shares and a maximum of 140,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public, of which 100,000,000 shares were registered in our primary offering and 40,000,000 shares were registered under our dividend reinvestment plan. The SEC declared our registration statement effective on November 20, 2009 and we retained KBS Capital Markets Group LLC, an affiliate of our advisor, to serve as the dealer manager of the offering pursuant to a dealer manager agreement. The dealer manager was responsible for marketing our shares in the initial public offering. We ceased offering shares of common stock in our primary offering on November 14, 2012.
KBS Capital Advisors LLC is our advisor. As our advisor, KBS Capital Advisors manages our day-to-day operations and our portfolio of investments. KBS Capital Advisors also has the authority to make all of the decisions regarding our investments, subject to the limitations in our charter and the direction and oversight of our board of directors. KBS Capital Advisors will also provide asset-management, marketing, investor-relations and other administrative services on our behalf.
We intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds from our initial public offering to invest in and manage a diverse portfolio of real estate‑related loans, opportunistic real estate, real estate‑related debt securities and other real estate‑related investments. Such investments have included, and are expected to continue to include, non-performing loans (which have resulted in, and may continue to result in, our acquisition of the underlying property securing the loan through foreclosure or similar processes), non-stabilized or undeveloped properties, and commercial mortgage backed securities (“CMBS”). We may also invest in entities that make similar investments. As of June 30, 2013, we owned nine office properties, one office campus consisting of nine office buildings, one office portfolio consisting of four office buildings and 43 acres of undeveloped land, one office portfolio consisting of three office properties, one industrial/flex property, one retail property, 1,375 acres of undeveloped land, two investments in CMBS, three first mortgage loans and one investment in an unconsolidated joint venture.
We sold 56,584,976 shares of common stock in the primary offering for gross offering proceeds of $561.7 million. We continue to offer shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan. As of June 30, 2013, we sold 1,575,836 shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $15.0 million. Also as of June 30, 2013, we had redeemed 117,870 of the shares sold in our offering for $1.1 million. Additionally, on December 29, 2011 and October 23, 2012, we issued 220,994 shares and 55,249 shares of common stock, respectively, for $2.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in private transactions exempt from the registration requirements pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

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

Market Outlook – Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets
The following discussion is based on management's beliefs, observations and expectations with respect to the real estate and real estate finance markets.
In the wake of the ongoing sub-par recovery of the U.S. economy, concerns persist regarding the damped pace of job and income growth and the overall economic health of domestic consumers, businesses and governments. At the end of 2012, the U.S. government barely escaped the self-imposed fiscal cliff by enacting legislation that temporarily postponed legislated spending cuts to many government programs. In 2013, the legislative and executive branches of the government were unable to negotiate a new federal budget, and the sequestration cuts began to take effect in March 2013. The cuts in government expenditures have affected each branch of government and multiple programs within each branch. These decreases in spending contributed to the slowing of U.S. economic growth in the second quarter of 2013. Increased reductions in federal government spending are scheduled in the third and fourth quarters of 2013, which has led a number of banks and economists to lower their projections for 2013 real gross domestic product growth.
With the help of an extremely accommodative Federal Reserve monetary policy, corporate America, and in particular the banking industry, has experienced improved earnings and stronger corporate finances. The U.S. dollar has remained the safe haven currency for the rest of the world, and U.S. asset prices have grown on a relative basis.
In 2012, the economic stimulus provided by certain Federal Reserve programs and an increased demand for U.S.- based assets began to fuel the U.S. commercial real estate market recovery. Transaction volumes increased and the re-emergence of the CMBS market and the availability of debt capital have spurred on the recovery. Commercial real estate transaction volumes have continued to improve as the United States has become a “safe haven” for global capital. This trend has continued throughout 2013 and the U.S. commercial real estate market has gained favor as an alternative investment asset. Looking forward, the recovery in commercial real estate is expected to remain uneven across geographies and among property types.
Residential real estate markets also have benefitted from the actions of the Federal Reserve. The introduction of the latest quantitative easing (QE) program has been directly focused on the purchase of mortgage backed securities at a pace of $45 billion a month and the purchase of longer-term treasury securities at a pace of $40 billion a month. This program has successfully lowered the cost of capital available to home buyers, which in turn has led to an increase in mortgage applications and construction activity. The residential real estate market has also benefitted from the presence of institutional investors who have instituted programs focused on the purchase of single-family homes with the intent of renting these homes. This increase in demand has led to a rebound in the value of residential properties in most major metropolitan areas.
In Europe, concerns remain regarding resolution of the ongoing sovereign debt crisis. Some European banks hold material quantities of sovereign debt on their balance sheets. The possible default or restructuring of the sovereign debt obligations of certain European Union countries and the resulting negative impact on the global financial markets remains a significant concern. The uncertainty surrounding the size of the problem and how regulators and governments intend to deal with the situation has caused many investors to reassess their pricing of sovereign risks. In the wake of the crisis, some nations continue to experience an ongoing elevated cost of capital. In November 2012, Moody's downgraded France's sovereign debt rating to Aa1 from AAA and, in February 2013, Moody's downgraded the U.K. government debt to Aa1 from AAA as well. In the past 15 months, Asia also has seen a number of ratings downgrades, with Fitch downgrading Japan to A+ in May of 2012 and China to A+ in April of 2013. The global ratings agencies continue to have a number of sovereign issuers on negative watch as governments have struggled to resolve their budget issues and face growing debt obligations.
Overall, despite indications of tepid recovery both in the U.S. and abroad, uncertainties abound. China's export-based economy has slowed and Japan has recently embarked upon a large scale QE program of its own. In the United States, the Federal Reserve has begun to address the timing of the completion of the current QE program, which, when combined with the highly adversarial political climate at the federal level, has led to high levels of uncertainty and increased volatility in the capital markets. In the short-term, these conditions are expected to continue and, combined with a challenging macro-economic environment, may interfere with the implementation of our business strategy and/or force us to modify it.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal demand for funds during the short and long-term is and will be for the acquisition of properties, loans and other real estate-related investments; the payment of operating expenses, capital expenditures and general and administrative expenses; payments under debt obligations; redemptions of common stock; and payments of distributions to stockholders. To date, we have had five primary sources of capital for meeting our cash requirements:
Proceeds from the primary portion of our initial public offering; 
Proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan;
Debt financing;
Proceeds from the sale of real estate and the repayment of real estate-related investments; and
Cash flow generated by our real estate and real estate-related investments. 
We sold 56,584,976 shares of common stock in the primary portion of our initial public offering for gross offering proceeds of $561.7 million. We ceased offering shares in the primary portion of our initial public offering on November 14, 2012. We continue to offer shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan. As of June 30, 2013, we had sold 1,575,836 shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $15.0 million.  To date, we have invested a significant amount of the proceeds from our initial public offering in real estate and real estate-related investments and we anticipate making several more investments in the future. We intend to use our cash on hand, proceeds from debt financing, cash flow generated by our real estate operations and real estate-related investments, proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan and principal repayments on our real estate loans receivable as our primary sources of immediate and long-term liquidity.
Our investments in real estate generate cash flow in the form of rental revenues and tenant reimbursements, which are reduced by operating expenditures and corporate general and administrative expenses.  Cash flow from operations from our real estate investments is primarily dependent upon the occupancy levels of our properties, the net effective rental rates on our leases, the collectibility of rent and operating recoveries from our tenants and how well we manage our expenditures.  As of June 30, 2013, our real estate property investments were 64% occupied. 
Our real estate-related debt securities generate cash flow in the form of interest income. Cash flows from operations from our real estate-related debt securities are primarily dependent on the operating performance of the underlying collateral and the borrower’s ability to make its debt service payments.
Investments in performing real estate-related loans generate cash flow in the form of interest income.  Investments in non‑performing real estate-related loans may or may not generate cash flow.  Cash flow from operations under our real estate‑related loans is primarily dependent on the operating performance of the underlying collateral and the borrowers’ ability to make their debt service payments.  We do not expect non-performing mortgages to perform in accordance with their contractual terms, including the repayment of the principal amount outstanding under the loans, the payment of interest at the stated amount on the face of notes or the repayment of the loans upon their maturity dates.  As such, we explore various strategies including, but not limited to, one or more of the following: (i) negotiating with the borrowers for a reduced payoff, (ii) restructuring the terms of the loans and (iii) enforcing our rights as lenders under these loans and foreclosing on the collateral securing the loans.  We believe that one or more of these potential courses of action will at some point result in positive cash flow to us. As of June 30, 2013, we had real estate loans receivable outstanding with a total book value of $95.4 million, of which $35.7 million consists of non-performing loans and $59.7 million consists of performing loans.
As of June 30, 2013, we had outstanding debt obligations in the aggregate principal amount of $177.0 million, all of which mature between 2015 and 2017. As of June 30, 2013, we had $37.5 million of unrestricted revolving debt available for future disbursements under a portfolio loan facility, subject to certain conditions set forth in the loan agreement.
Under our charter, we are required to limit our total operating expenses to the greater of 2% of our average invested assets or 25% of our net income for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters, as these terms are defined in our charter, unless the Conflicts Committee has determined that such excess expenses were justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors. Operating expense reimbursements for the four fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2013 did not exceed the charter imposed limitation.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, our cash needs for acquisitions, capital expenditures and debt servicing were met with proceeds from our initial public offering and debt financing. Operating cash needs during the same period were met through cash flow generated by our real estate investments and proceeds from our initial public offering.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
We commenced operations with the acquisition of our first real estate investment on August 2, 2010. As of June 30, 2013, we owned nine office properties, one office campus consisting of nine office buildings, one office portfolio consisting of four office buildings and 43 acres of undeveloped land, one office portfolio consisting of three office properties, one industrial/flex property, one retail property, 1,375 acres of undeveloped land, two CMBS investments, three first mortgage loans and one investment in an unconsolidated joint venture. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, net cash provided by operating activities was $4.7 million. We expect that our cash flows from operating activities will increase in future years as a result of owning the assets acquired during 2013 for an entire period, leasing additional space that is currently unoccupied, anticipated future acquisitions of real estate and real estate-related investments and the related operations of such real estate and the potential cash flow from our non-performing real estate-related investments.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $177.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and primarily consisted of the following:
Acquisitions of one office portfolio consisting of three office properties and the acquisition of another office property for an aggregate purchase price of $159.0 million;
Origination of a real estate loan receivable of $21.6 million;
Proceeds from the sale of real estate of $7.5 million;
Improvements to real estate of $6.5 million; and
Principal repayments on real estate securities of $2.2 million.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $139.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and consisted primarily of the following:
$140.8 million of net cash provided by debt and other financings as a result of proceeds from notes payable of $154.5 million, partially offset by principal payments on notes payable of $11.2 million and payments of deferred financing costs of $2.5 million;
$1.2 million of net cash distributions, after giving effect to distributions reinvested by stockholders of $2.3 million;
$0.4 million of net cash provided by noncontrolling interests consisting of contributions from noncontrolling interests of $0.6 million, partially offset by distributions to noncontrolling interests of $0.2 million;
$0.3 million of cash used for redemptions of common stock; and
$0.2 million of cash used for payments of other organization and offering costs.
In order to execute our investment strategy, we utilize secured debt and we may, to the extent available, utilize unsecured debt to finance a portion of our investment portfolio. Management remains vigilant in monitoring the risks inherent with the use of debt in our portfolio and is taking actions to ensure that these risks, including refinancing and interest risks, are properly balanced with the benefit of using leverage. Once we have fully invested the proceeds of our initial public offering, we expect our debt financing will be 50% or less of the cost of our investments. There is no limitation on the amount we may borrow for any single investment. Our charter limits our total liabilities such that our total liabilities may not exceed 75% of the cost of our tangible assets; however, we may exceed that limit if a majority of the Conflicts Committee approves each borrowing in excess of our charter limitation and we disclose such borrowing to our common stockholders in our next quarterly report with an explanation from the conflicts committee of the justification for the excess borrowing. As of June 30, 2013, our borrowings and other liabilities were approximately 28% of the cost (before depreciation or other noncash reserves) and book value (before depreciation) of our tangible assets.

In addition to making investments in accordance with our investment objectives, we use our capital resources to make certain payments to our advisor and our dealer manager. During our offering stage, these payments included payments to our dealer manager for selling commissions and dealer manager fees related to sales in our primary offering and payments to our dealer manager and our advisor for reimbursement of certain organization and other offering expenses related both to the primary offering and the dividend reinvestment plan. During our acquisition and development stage, we expect to make payments to our advisor in connection with the selection and origination or purchase of investments, the management of our assets and costs incurred by our advisor in providing services to us as well as for any dispositions of assets (including the discounted payoff of non-performing loans).
The advisory agreement has a one-year term but may be renewed for an unlimited number of successive one-year periods upon the mutual consent of our advisor and our conflicts committee.

Results of Operations
Overview
As of June 30, 2012, we owned five office properties one office portfolio consisting of five office buildings and 43 acres of undeveloped land, one industrial/flex property, 1,375 acres of undeveloped land, four CMBS investments, one non-performing first mortgage loan and one investment in an unconsolidated joint venture. As of June 30, 2013, we owned nine office properties, one office campus consisting of nine office buildings, one office portfolio consisting of four office buildings and 43 acres of undeveloped land, one office portfolio consisting of three office properties, one industrial/flex property, one retail property, 1,375 acres of undeveloped land, two investments in CMBS, three first mortgage loans and one investment in an unconsolidated joint venture. Our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 may not be indicative of those in future periods as the occupancy in our properties has not been stabilized. As of June 30, 2013, the portfolio was approximately 64% occupied. However, due to the short outstanding weighted-average lease term in the portfolio of less than three years, we do not put significant emphasis on quarterly changes in occupancy (positive or negative) in the short run. Our underwriting and valuations are generally more sensitive to “terminal values” that may be realized upon the disposition of the assets in the portfolio and less sensitive to ongoing cash flows generated by the portfolio in the years leading up to an eventual sale. There are no guarantees that occupancies of our assets will increase, or that we will recognize a gain on the sale of our assets. We funded the acquisitions of these investments with proceeds from our initial public offering and debt financing. In general, we expect that our income and expenses related to our portfolio will increase in future periods as a result of anticipated future acquisitions of real estate and real estate-related investments. Our income and expenses will also depend on the outcome of our recovery strategies for our non-performing first mortgage loan.

(2) Represents the dollar amount increase (decrease) for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012 with respect to real estate and real estate-related investments owned by us during the entire periods presented.
Rental income and tenant reimbursements increased from $2.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $10.1 million and $2.2 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2013, primarily as a result of the growth in our real estate portfolio. We expect rental income and tenant reimbursements to increase in future periods as a result of owning the assets acquired during 2013 for an entire period, leasing additional space and anticipated future acquisitions of real estate.
Interest income from our real estate loans receivable was $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2012, our investment in one real estate loan receivable was non-performing and no interest income was received. We expect interest income to increase in future periods as a result of owning the real estate loan receivable originated during 2013 for an entire period and anticipated future originations or acquisitions of real estate loans receivable.  Interest income from non-performing loans may vary from period to period, based on the ability of the borrowers to make interest payments. 
Interest income from our real estate securities decreased from $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $20,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 due to the decrease in principal balances related to these securities. We expect interest income from our real estate securities to vary in future periods based upon acquisition activity and principal balances outstanding under our real estate securities.
Property operating costs and real estate taxes and insurance increased from $1.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $5.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2013, primarily as a result of the growth in our real estate portfolio. We expect property operating costs and real estate taxes and insurance to increase in future periods as a result of owning the assets acquired during 2013 for an entire period and anticipated future acquisitions of real estate.
Asset management fees increased from $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, as a result of the growth in our investment portfolio. We expect asset management fees to increase in future periods as a result of owning the assets acquired in 2013 for an entire period and anticipated future acquisitions. All asset management fees incurred as of June 30, 2013 have been paid.

Real estate acquisition fees and expenses to affiliates and non-affiliates increased from $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase is due to the difference in the total acquisition cost for real estate acquired during the three months ended June 30, 2012 of $8.0 million compared to the total acquisition cost for real estate acquired during the three months ended June 30, 2013 of $84.2 million. We expect real estate acquisition fees and expenses to vary in future periods based upon acquisition activity.
General and administrative expenses decreased from $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 due to a decrease in transfer agent fees, as our primary offering terminated in November 2012, and legal fees. General and administrative costs consisted primarily of legal fees, transfer agent fees, insurance premiums, professional fees and independent director fees. We expect general and administrative costs to increase in future periods as we acquire additional investments, but we expect such costs to decrease as a percentage of total revenue.
Depreciation and amortization increased from $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, due to the growth of our real estate portfolio. We expect depreciation and amortization to increase in future periods as a result of owning the assets acquired during 2013 for an entire period and anticipated future acquisitions of real estate.
Interest expense increased from $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in interest expense is primarily a result of our use of debt secured by our real estate assets in 2013. Our interest expense in future periods will vary based on our level of future borrowings, which will depend on the availability and cost of debt financing and the opportunity to acquire real estate and real estate-related investments meeting our investment objectives.

Interest income from our real estate loans receivable was $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2012, our investment in a real estate loan receivable was non-performing and no interest income was received. We expect interest income to increase in future periods as a result of owning the real estate loan receivable originated during 2013 for an entire period and anticipated future originations or acquisitions of real estate loans receivable.  Interest income from non-performing loans may vary from period to period, based on the ability of the borrowers to make interest payments. 
Interest income from our real estate securities decreased from $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 due to the decrease in principal balances related to these securities. We expect interest income from our real estate securities to vary in future periods based upon acquisition activity and principal balances outstanding under our real estate securities.
Property operating costs and real estate taxes and insurance increased from $2.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $8.8 million and $3.8 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily as a result of the growth in our real estate portfolio. We expect property operating costs and real estate taxes and insurance to increase in future periods as a result of owning the assets acquired during 2013 for an entire period and anticipated future acquisitions of real estate.
Asset management fees increased from $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, as a result of the growth in our investment portfolio. We expect asset management fees to increase in future periods as a result of owning the assets acquired in 2013 for an entire period and anticipated future acquisitions. All asset management fees incurred as of June 30, 2013 have been paid.
Real estate acquisition fees and expenses to affiliates and non-affiliates increased from $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase is due to the difference in the total acquisition cost for real estate acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2012 of $8.0 million compared to the total acquisition cost for real estate acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2013 of $159.0 million. We expect real estate acquisition fees and expenses to vary in future periods based upon acquisition activity.
General and administrative expenses decreased from $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 due to a decrease in transfer agent fees, as our primary offering terminated in November 2012, and legal fees. General and administrative costs consisted primarily of legal fees, transfer agent fees, insurance premiums, professional fees and independent director fees. We expect general and administrative costs to increase in future periods as we acquire additional investments, but we expect such costs to decrease as a percentage of total revenue.
Depreciation and amortization increased from $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $10.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, due to the growth of our real estate portfolio. We expect depreciation and amortization to increase in future periods as a result of owning the assets acquired during 2013 for an entire period and anticipated future acquisitions of real estate.
Interest expense increased from $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in interest expense is primarily a result of our use of debt secured by our real estate assets in 2013. Our interest expense in future periods will vary based on our level of future borrowings, which will depend on the availability and cost of debt financing and the opportunity to acquire real estate and real estate-related investments meeting our investment objectives.

On March 20, 2013, our board of directors authorized a distribution in the amount of $0.06153498 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 22, 2013. We paid this distribution on April 4, 2013 and this was the only distribution declared during the first and second quarters of 2013. This distribution was funded by the gain resulting from a disposition of an office building containing 151,937 rentable square feet located in Richardson, Texas on January 11, 2013 for $7.7 million. This disposition resulted in a gain of approximately $3.8 million, calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and reduced for a 10% noncontrolling interest held by a non-affiliate.
Under our distribution policy, to the extent that we believe assets in our portfolio have appreciated in value after acquisition or subsequent to the time we have taken control of the assets, we may use the proceeds from real estate financings to fund distributions to our stockholders. With respect to the non-performing assets that we acquire, we believe that within a relatively short time after acquisition or taking control of such investments via foreclosure or deed-in-lieu proceedings, the assets will often experience an increase in their value. For example, in most instances, we bring financial stability to the property, which reduces uncertainty in the market and alleviates concerns regarding the property’s management, ownership and future. We also generally have significantly more capital available for investment in these properties than the prior owners and operators of such properties were willing to invest, and as such, we are able to invest in tenant improvements and capital expenditures with respect to such properties, which enables us to attract substantially increased interest from brokers and tenants.
Because we intend to fund distributions from cash flow and strategic financings, at this time we do not expect our board of directors to declare distributions on a set monthly or quarterly basis. Rather, our board of directors will declare distributions from time to time based on cash flow from our investments, gains on sales of assets, increases in the value of our assets after acquisition and our investment and financing activities. As such, we can also give no assurances as to the timing, amount or notice with respect to any other future distribution declarations.
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we paid aggregate distributions of $3.6 million, including $1.2 million of distributions paid in cash and $2.3 million of distributions reinvested through our dividend reinvestment plan. Our net loss attributable to common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $0.9 million and our cash flows from operations were $4.7 million. Our cumulative distributions paid and net loss attributable to common stockholders from inception through June 30, 2013 were $22.9 million and $20.2 million, respectively. We have funded our cumulative distributions, which includes net cash distributions and dividends reinvested by stockholders, with proceeds from debt financing of $18.7 million and proceeds from the dispositions of properties of $4.2 million (which amount is approximately equal to the gain resulting from the disposition). To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations or gains from asset sales, we will have fewer funds available for investment in real estate-related loans, opportunistic real estate, real estate-related debt securities and other real estate-related investments, the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced and subsequent investors may experience dilution.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of our financial statements requires significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. A discussion of the accounting policies that management considers critical in that they involve significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC. There have been no significant changes to our policies during 2013.

Subsequent Events
We evaluate subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.
Central Building
On July 10, 2013, we, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, acquired an office building containing 191,784 rentable square feet located on approximately 0.6 acres of land in Seattle, Washington (the “Central Building”).  The seller is not affiliated with us or our advisor. The purchase price of the Central Building was $34.5 million plus closing costs.  We funded the purchase of the Central Building with proceeds from our initial public offering, but may later place mortgage debt on this property.  The Central Building was built in 1907 and renovated from 2002 through 2007 and was 82% leased at acquisition.   We have yet to allocate the purchase price of the property to the fair value of the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities.
50 Congress Street
On July 11, 2013, we, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, acquired an office building containing 179,872 rentable square feet located on approximately 0.4 acres of land in Boston, Massachusetts (“50 Congress Street”).  The seller is not affiliated with us or our advisor. The purchase price of 50 Congress Street was $51.0 million plus closing costs.  We funded the purchase of 50 Congress Street with proceeds from our initial public offering, but may later place mortgage debt on this property.  50 Congress Street was built in two phases in 1910 and 1915 and was 88% leased at acquisition.  We have yet to allocate the purchase price of the property to the fair value of the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities.
1635 N. Cahuenga Mortgage Loan
On July 24, 2013, the joint venture that owns the 1635 N. Cahuenga Building entered into a three-year secured mortgage loan with Bank of America, N.A., an unaffiliated lender, for borrowings of up to $6.7 million secured by the 1635 N. Cahuenga Building (the “1635 N. Cahuenga Mortgage Loan”). We own a 70% equity interest in the joint venture that owns the 1635 N. Cahuenga Building. As of August 2, 2013, $4.7 million had been disbursed to the joint venture with the remaining $2.0 million available for future disbursements, subject to certain terms and conditions contained in the loan documents.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes as a result of borrowings used to maintain liquidity and to fund the refinancing of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. We may also be exposed to the effects of changes in interest rates as a result of the acquisition and origination of mortgage, mezzanine, bridge and other loans and the acquisition of real estate securities. Our profitability and the value of our investment portfolio may be adversely affected during any period as a result of interest rate changes. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. We may manage interest rate risk by maintaining a ratio of fixed rate, long-term debt such that floating rate exposure is kept at an acceptable level. In addition, we may utilize a variety of financial instruments, including interest rate caps, floors, and swap agreements, in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our operations. When we use these types of derivatives to hedge the risk of interest‑earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, we may be subject to certain risks, including the risk that losses on a hedge position will reduce the funds available for payments to holders of our common stock and that the losses may exceed the amount we invested in the instruments.
We borrow funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows on our fixed rate debt unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated. However, interest rate changes will affect the fair value of our fixed rate instruments. As of June 30, 2013, the fair value and carrying value of our fixed rate real estate loan receivable was $21.9 million and $21.7 million, respectively. The fair value estimate of our fixed rate real estate loan receivable was estimated using an internal valuation model that considers the expected cash flows for the loans, underlying collateral values (for collateral-dependent loans) and the estimated yield requirements of institutional investors for loans with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. As of June 30, 2013, the fair value of our fixed rate debt was $32.1 million and the carrying value of our fixed rate debt was $29.9 million. The fair value estimate of our fixed rate debt was calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing rates we would expect to pay for debt of a similar type and remaining maturity if the loans were originated as of June 30, 2013. As we expect to hold our fixed rate instruments to maturity and the amounts due under such instruments would be limited to the outstanding principal balance and any accrued and unpaid interest, we do not expect that fluctuations in interest rates, and the resulting changes in fair value of our fixed rate instruments, would have a significant impact on our operations.
Conversely, movements in interest rates on variable rate debt and loans receivable would change our future earnings and cash flows, but would not significantly affect the fair value of those instruments. However, changes in required risk premiums would result in changes in the fair value of floating rate instruments. As of June 30, 2013, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $35.8 million of variable rate loans receivable. Based on interest rates as of June 30, 2013, if interest rates were 100 basis points higher during the 12 months ending June 30, 2014, interest income would increase by approximately $0.1 million.  As of June 30, 2013, one-month LIBOR was 0.19465% and a decrease in the LIBOR index would have no impact on interest income from our variable rate loan receivable due to an applicable interest rate floor.  As of June 30, 2013, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $147.1 million of variable rate debt outstanding. Based on interest rates as of June 30, 2013, if interest rates were 100 basis points higher during the 12 months ending June 30, 2014, interest expense on our variable rate debt would increase by $1.5 million. As of June 30, 2013, one-month LIBOR was 0.19465% and if the LIBOR index was reduced to 0% during the 12 months ending June 30, 2014, interest expense on our variable rate debt would decrease by $0.3 million.
The interest rates of our fixed rate debt and variable rate debt as of June 30, 2013 were 6.3% and 2.6%, respectively.  The annual weighted effective interest rate of our fixed rate and variable rate real estate loans receivable as of June 30, 2013 was 13.0% and 15.7%, respectively. The annual weighted effective interest rate represents the effective interest rate as of June 30, 2013, using the interest method that we use to recognize interest income on our real estate loans receivable.  As of June 30, 2013, we also had an investment in a non-performing real estate loan receivable.  Changes in interest rates would not have any impact on our operations as they pertain to our non-performing real estate loan receivable.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
a)
During the period covered by this Form 10-Q, we did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933.
b)
On November 20, 2009, our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-156633), covering a public offering of up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock in our primary offering and 40,000,000 shares of common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan, was declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933. We commenced our initial public offering on November 20, 2009 upon retaining KBS Capital Markets Group LLC, an affiliate of our advisor, as the dealer manager of our offering. We offered 100,000,000 shares of common stock in our primary offering at an aggregate offering price of up to $1.0 billion, or $10.00 per share, with discounts available to certain categories of purchasers. We ceased offering shares in our primary offering on November 14, 2012. The 40,000,000 shares offered under our dividend reinvestment plan are being offered at an aggregate offering price of $380 million, or $9.50 per share. We will continue to offer shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan until we have sold all the shares under the plan.
We sold 56,584,976 shares of common stock in the primary offering for gross offering proceeds of $561.7 million. As of June 30, 2013, we had sold 1,575,836 shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $15.0 million. Also as of June 30, 2013, we had redeemed 117,870 of the shares sold in our offering for $1.1 million. As of June 30, 2013, we had incurred selling commissions, dealer manager fees and other organization and offering costs in the amounts set forth below. In connection with our primary offering, we paid selling commissions and dealer manager fees to KBS Capital Markets Group, and KBS Capital Markets Group reallowed all selling commissions and a portion of the dealer manager fees to participating broker-dealers. In addition, we reimburse KBS Capital Advisors and KBS Capital Markets Group for certain offering expenses.

From the commencement of our initial public offering through June 30, 2013, the net offering proceeds to us, after deducting the total expenses incurred as described above, were approximately $516.4 million.
We expect to use substantially all of the net proceeds from our initial public offering to invest in and manage a diverse portfolio of real estate‑related loans, opportunistic real estate, real estate‑related debt securities and other real estate‑related investments. We may use the net proceeds from the sale of shares under our dividend reinvestment plan for general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, the redemption of shares under our share redemption program; reserves required by any financings of our investments; future funding obligations under any real estate loans receivable we acquire; the acquisition or origination of assets, which would include payment of acquisition and origination fees to our advisor; the repayment of debt; and expenses related to our investments, such as purchasing a loan senior to ours to protect our junior position in the event of a default by the borrower on the senior loan, making protective advances to preserve collateral securing a loan, or making capital and tenant improvements or paying leasing costs and commissions related to real property. As of June 30, 2013, we have used the net proceeds from our primary offering, along with debt financing, to acquire $613.7 million in real estate investments and real estate-related loans, including $8.1 million of real estate acquisition fees and expenses paid to affiliates and non-affiliates including costs related to the foreclosure of loans and capitalized costs related to our acquisitions.

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

c)
We have adopted a share redemption program that may enable stockholders to sell their shares to us in limited circumstances.
Pursuant to the share redemption program there are several limitations on our ability to redeem shares:
Unless the shares are being redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined under the share redemption program), we may not redeem shares until the stockholder has held the shares for one year.
During each calendar year, redemptions are limited to the amount of net proceeds from the sale of shares under our dividend reinvestment plan during the prior calendar year (except that, as of June 30, 2013, we also have available under the share redemption program up to $1.1 million in additional funds to redeem a qualifying stockholder’s shares if the shares are being redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence;” for purposes of determining the amount of funds available for redemption under the program, redemptions for a stockholder’s death, qualifying disability or determination of incompetence, are made first from the $1.1 million before the general allocation for redemptions described above). Additionally, based on the amount of net proceeds raised from the sale of shares under the dividend reinvestment plan during 2012, we have $8.3 million available for all other redemptions in 2013.
During any calendar year, we may redeem no more than 5% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year.
We have no obligation to redeem shares if the redemption would violate the restrictions on distributions under Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency.
We may amend, suspend or terminate the program upon 30 days’ notice to our stockholders. We may provide this notice by including such information in a Current Report on Form 8-K or in our annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the SEC, or by a separate mailing to our stockholders.
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we fulfilled all redemption requests and redeemed shares pursuant to the share redemption program as follows:

_____________________
(1) Pursuant to the program, as amended, we will initially redeem shares as follows:
The lower of $9.25 or 92.5% of the price paid to acquire the shares from us for stockholders who have held their shares for at least one year;
The lower of $9.50 or 95.0% of the price paid to acquire the shares from us for stockholders who have held their shares for at least two years;
The lower of $9.75 or 97.5% of the price paid to acquire the shares from us for stockholders who have held their shares for at least three years; and
The lower of $10.00 or 100% of the price paid to acquire the shares from us for stockholders who have held their shares for at least four years.
Notwithstanding the above, upon the death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” of a stockholder, the redemption price will be the amount paid to acquire the shares from us. Furthermore, once we establish an estimated value per share of our common stock, the redemption price per share for all stockholders will be equal to the estimated value per share, as determined by our advisor or another firm chosen for that purpose. We expect to establish an estimated value per share after the completion of our offering stage. We will consider our offering stage complete when we are no longer publicly offering equity securities - whether through our initial public offering or follow-on public offerings - and have not done so for 18 months. “Public equity offering” for this purpose does not include offerings on behalf of selling stockholders or offerings related to a dividend reinvestment plan, employee benefit plan or the redemption of interests in the Operating Partnership.
(2) We limit the dollar value of shares that may be redeemed under the program as described above. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we redeemed $0.3 million of common stock, which represented all redemption requests received in good order and eligible for redemption through the June 2013 redemption date. Additionally, based on the amount of net proceeds raised from the sale of shares under the dividend reinvestment plan during 2012 and redemptions through June 30, 2013, we have $8.3 million available for redemptions for the remainder of 2013. In addition, as of June 30, 2013, we also have available under the share redemption program up to $1.1 million in additional funds to redeem a qualifying stockholder’s shares if the shares are being redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence;” for purposes of determining the amount of funds available for redemption under the program, redemptions for a stockholder’s death, qualifying disability or determination of incompetence, are made first from the $1.1 million before the general allocation for redemptions described above.
