PART I
 
Forward-Looking Statements
We make statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K that are forward-looking statements, which are usually identified by the use of words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plans,” “potential,” “possible,” “predicts,” “projects,” “result,” “seeks,” “should,” “will,” and variations of such words or similar expressions. Our forward-looking statements reflect our current views about our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies and prospects, which are based on the information currently available to us and on assumptions we have made. Although we believe that our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies and prospects as reflected in or suggested by our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies or prospects will be attained or achieved and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Furthermore, actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and may be affected by a variety of risks and factors including, without limitation:
the competitive environment in which we operate;
real estate risks, including fluctuations in real estate values and the general economic climate in local markets and competition for tenants in such markets;
decreased rental rates or increasing vacancy rates;
potential defaults on or non-renewal of leases by tenants;
potential bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants;
acquisition risks, including failure of such acquisitions to perform in accordance with expectations;
the timing of acquisitions and dispositions;
potential natural disasters such as earthquakes, wildfires or floods;
the consequence of any future security alerts and/or terrorist attacks;
national, international, regional and local economic conditions;
the general level of interest rates;
potential changes in the law or governmental regulations that affect us and interpretations of those laws and regulations, including changes in real estate and zoning or real estate investment trust (“REIT”) tax laws, and potential increases in real property tax rates;
financing risks, including the risks that our cash flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest and we may be unable to refinance our existing debt upon maturity or obtain new financing on attractive terms or at all;
lack of or insufficient amounts of insurance;
our failure to complete acquisitions;
our failure to successfully integrate acquired properties;
our ability to qualify and maintain our qualification as a REIT;
our ability to maintain our current investment grade rating by Fitch;
litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting or defending pending or threatened claims and any adverse outcomes; and
possible environmental liabilities, including costs, fines or penalties that may be incurred due to necessary remediation of contamination of properties presently owned or previously owned by us.
Accordingly, there is no assurance that our expectations will be realized. Except as otherwise required by the U.S. federal securities laws, we disclaim any obligations or undertaking to publicly release any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement contained herein (or elsewhere) to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. The reader should review carefully our financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as Item 1A. entitled “Risk Factors” in this report.

Item 1. Business
Company Overview
References to “we,” “our,” “us,” “our company,” or “the Company” refer to Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc., a Maryland corporation, together with our consolidated subsidiaries (unless the context requires otherwise), including Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership, of which we are the sole general partner and which we refer to in this report as our Operating Partnership.
We are a self-administered and self-managed full-service REIT focused on owning, operating and acquiring industrial properties in Southern California infill markets. Our goal is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders by providing superior access to industrial property investments in Southern California infill markets.
We were formed as a Maryland corporation on January 18, 2013 and Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), of which we are the sole general partner, was formed as a Maryland limited partnership on January 18, 2013. Through our controlling interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, we own, manage, lease, acquire and develop industrial real estate primarily located in Southern California infill markets, and from time to time, acquire or provide mortgage debt secured by industrial property.  As of December 31, 2019, our consolidated portfolio consisted of 213 properties with approximately 26.6 million rentable square feet.  In addition, we currently manage an additional 19 properties with approximately 1.0 million rentable square feet.
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2013. We are generally not subject to federal taxes on our income to the extent we distribute our REIT taxable income to our shareholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT.
Business Objectives and Growth Strategies  
Our primary business objective is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders through dividends and capital appreciation. We believe that pursuing the following strategies will enable us to achieve this objective:
Internal Growth through Intensive, Value-Add Asset Management.  
We employ an intensive asset management strategy that is designed to increase cash flow and occupancy from our properties. Our strategy includes proactive renewal of existing tenants, re-tenanting to achieve higher rents, and repositioning industrial property by renovating, modernizing or increasing functionality to increase cash flow and value. For example, we sometimes convert formerly single-tenant properties to multi-tenant occupancy to capitalize upon the higher per square foot rents generated by smaller spaces in our target markets in addition to adding or improving loading access and increasing fire, life-safety and building operating systems, among other value-add initiatives. We believe that by undertaking such conversions or other functional enhancements, we can position our properties to attract a larger universe of potential tenants, increase occupancy, tenant quality and rental rates. We also believe that multi-tenant properties, as well as single mid-size buildings, help to limit our exposure to tenant default risk and to diversify our sources of cash flow.  Additionally, our proactive approach to leasing and asset management is driven by our in-house leasing department and team of portfolio and property managers who maintain direct, day-to-day relationships and dialogue with our tenants, which we believe enhances recurring cash flow and reduces periods of vacancy.
External Growth through Acquisitions.
We continue to grow our portfolio through disciplined acquisitions in prime Southern California infill markets. We believe that our relationship-, data- and event-driven research allows us to identify and exploit asset mispricing and market inefficiencies.  We seek to acquire assets with value-add opportunities to increase their cash flow and asset values, often targeting off-market or lightly marketed transactions where our execution abilities and market credibility encourage owners to sell assets to us at what we consider pricing that is more favorable than heavily marketed transactions. We also seek to source transactions from owners with generational ownership shift, fund divestment, sale-leaseback/corporate surplus, maturing loans, some facing liquidity needs or financial stress, including loans that lack economical refinancing options. We also believe our deep market presence and relationships may enable us to selectively acquire assets in marketed transactions that may be difficult to access for less focused buyers.
Competitive Strengths
We believe that our investment strategy and operating model distinguishes us from other owners, operators and acquirers of industrial real estate in several important ways, including the following:

2



Focus on Industrial Assets in Southern California’s Infill Market: We intend to continue our core strategy of owning and operating industrial properties within Southern California’s infill regions.  Infill markets are considered high-barrier to entry markets with scarcity of vacant or developable land and high concentrations of people, jobs, housing, income, wages and consumption. We believe Southern California’s infill industrial property market is the largest, most fragmented industrial market in the nation, demonstrating favorable long-term tenant demand fundamentals in the face of an ongoing scarcity and diminishment of supply. We have a portfolio of interests in 213 properties totaling approximately 26.6 million square feet, which are all located in Southern California infill markets.
Diversified Tenant Mix: Our portfolio is leased to a broad tenant base, drawn from diverse industry sectors. We believe that this diversification reduces our exposure to tenant default risk and earnings volatility. As of December 31, 2019, we had 1,394 leases, with no single tenant accounting for more than 2.9% of our total annualized base rent.  Our portfolio is also geographically diversified within the Southern California market across the following submarkets: Los Angeles (53%); San Bernardino (14%); Orange County (13%); San Diego (11%); and Ventura (9%).
Superior Access to Deal Flow: We believe that we enjoy superior access to value-add, off-market, lightly marketed and marketed acquisition opportunities, many of which are difficult for competing investors to access. Off-market and lightly marketed transactions are characterized by a lack of a formal marketing process and a lack of widely disseminated marketing materials. Marketed transactions are often characterized by extensive buyer competition, making such transactions difficult to close on for less-focused investors. As we are principally focused on the Southern California market, our executive management and acquisition teams have developed and maintain a deep, broad network of relationships among key market participants, including property brokers, lenders, owners and tenants. We employ an extensive broker marketing, incentives and loyalty program. We also utilize data-driven and event-driven analytics and primary research to identify and pursue events and circumstances, including below-market leased properties, properties with curable functional obsolescence, generational ownership changes, and financial stress related to properties, owners, lenders, and tenants, that tend to generate early access to emerging investment opportunities.
Vertically Integrated Platform: We are a full-service real estate operating company, with substantial in-house capabilities in all aspects of our business. Our platform includes experienced in-house teams focused on acquisitions, analytics and underwriting, asset management, repositioning and development, property management, sales and leasing, design, construction management, as well as finance, accounting, legal and human relations departments.
Value-Add Repositioning and Redevelopment Expertise: Our in-house redevelopment and construction management team employs an entrepreneurial approach to redevelopment and repositioning activities that are designed to increase the functionality, cash flow and value of our properties. These activities include converting large underutilized spaces into a series of smaller and more functional spaces, creating generic industrial space that appeals to a wide range of tenants, adding additional square footage and modernizing properties by, among other things, upgrading fire, life-safety and building operating systems, resolving functional obsolescence, adding or enhancing loading areas and truck access and making other accretive modernization improvements.
Growth-Oriented, Flexible and Conservative Capital Structure: Our capital structure provides us with the resources, financial flexibility and the capacity to support the future growth of our business. Since our initial public offering, we have raised capital through three public offerings of our common stock, three public offerings of preferred stock and through sales of common stock under our at-the-market equity offering programs. We currently have an at-the-market equity offering program pursuant to which we may sell from time to time up to an aggregate of $550.0 million of our common stock through sales agents. As of the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have sold $205.9 million of our common stock under this at-the-market equity offering program, leaving us with the capacity to issue up to $344.1 million of additional shares. On February 13, 2020, we amended our $450 million credit facility by entering into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which provides for a $600 million unsecured credit facility, comprised of a $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility and a $100 million unsecured term loan facility. As of the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we did not have any borrowings outstanding under the unsecured revolving credit facility, leaving $500 million available. The amended credit agreement has an accordion feature that permits us to request additional lender commitments up to an additional $900 million, which may be comprised of additional revolving commitments, term loan commitments or any combination thereof, subject to certain conditions. As of December 31, 2019, our ratio of net debt to total market capitalization was 12.3%.

Competition
In acquiring our target properties, we compete with other public industrial property sector REITs, income oriented non-traded REITs, private real estate fund managers and local real estate investors and developers, some of which have greater financial resources or other competitive advantages than we do. Such competition may result in an increase in the amount we must pay to acquire a property or may require us to forgo an investment in properties which would otherwise meet our investment criteria. We also face significant competition in leasing available properties to prospective tenants and in re-leasing space to existing tenants. As a result, we may have to provide rent concessions, incur expenses for tenant improvements or offer other inducements to enable us to timely lease vacant space, all of which may have an adverse impact on our results of operations.
Insurance
We carry commercial property, liability, environmental, earthquake and terrorism coverage on all the properties in our portfolio under blanket insurance policies. In addition, we hold other environmental policies for certain properties with known environmental conditions that provide for additional coverage for potential environmental liabilities, subject to the policy’s coverage conditions and limitations. Generally, we do not carry insurance for certain types of extraordinary losses, including, but not limited to, losses caused by floods (unless the property is located in a flood plain), riots, war and wildfires. Substantially all of our properties are located in areas that are subject to earthquakes, and while we maintain earthquake insurance coverage, the events are subject to material deductibles and exclusions. Additionally, seismic risks are evaluated for properties during acquisition by a qualified structural engineer and to the extent that the engineer identifies a property with weaknesses that contribute to a high statistical risk, the property will generally be structurally retrofitted to reduce the statistical risk to an acceptable level.
Employees
As of December 31, 2019, we employed 123 full-time employees. We believe that relations with our employees are good. None of our employees are represented by a labor union.
Principal Executive Offices
Our principal executive offices are located at 11620 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 1000, Los Angeles, California 90025 (telephone 310-966-1680). We believe that our current facilities are adequate for our present and future operations.

Regulation
General
Our properties are subject to various laws, ordinances and regulations, including regulations relating to common areas and fire and safety requirements. We believe that we have the necessary permits and approvals to operate each of our properties.
Americans with Disabilities Act

4



Our properties must comply with Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended (the “ADA”) to the extent that such properties are “public accommodations” as defined under the ADA. Under the ADA, all public accommodations must meet federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. The ADA may require removal of structural barriers to access by persons with disabilities in certain public areas of our properties where such removal is readily achievable. Although we believe that the properties in our portfolio in the aggregate substantially comply with present requirements of the ADA, and we have not received any notice for correction from any regulatory agency, we have not conducted a comprehensive audit or investigation of all of our properties to determine whether we are in compliance, and therefore we may own properties that are not in compliance with current ADA standards.
ADA compliance is dependent upon the tenant’s specific use of the property, and as the use of a property changes or improvements to existing spaces are made, we will take steps to ensure compliance. Noncompliance with the ADA could result in additional costs to attain compliance, imposition of fines by the U.S. government or an award of damages plus attorney’s fees to private litigants. The obligation to make readily achievable accommodations is an ongoing one, and we will continue to assess our properties and make alterations to achieve compliance as deemed commercially reasonable.
Environmental Matters
The properties that we acquire are subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws. Under these laws, courts and government agencies have the authority to require us, to the extent we own a contaminated property, to clean up the property, even if we did not know of or were not responsible for the contamination. These laws also apply to persons who owned a property at the time it became contaminated and, therefore, it is possible we could incur these costs even after we sell some of the properties we acquire. In addition to the costs of cleanup, environmental contamination can affect the value of a property and, therefore, an owner’s ability to borrow using the property as collateral or to sell the property. Under applicable environmental laws, courts and government agencies also have the authority to require that a person who sent waste to a waste disposal facility, such as a landfill or an incinerator, pay for the clean-up of that facility if it becomes contaminated and threatens human health or the environment.
Furthermore, various court decisions have established that third parties may recover damages for injury caused by property contamination. For instance, a person exposed to asbestos at a property may seek to recover damages if he or she suffers injury from the asbestos. Lastly, some of these environmental laws restrict the use of a property or place conditions on various activities. An example would be laws that require a business using chemicals to manage them carefully and to notify local officials that the chemicals are being used.
We could be responsible for any of the costs discussed above, which have the potential to be very significant. The costs to clean up a contaminated property, to defend against a claim or to comply with environmental laws could be material and could adversely affect the funds available for distribution to our stockholders. To mitigate some of the environmental risk, our properties are covered by a blanket environmental insurance policy. In addition, we hold other environmental policies for certain properties with known environmental conditions that provide for additional coverage for potential environmental liabilities. These policies, however, are subject to certain limits, deductibles and exclusions, and insurance may not fully compensate us for any environmental liability. We require Phase I or similar environmental assessments by independent environmental consultants at the time of acquisition of a property. Phase I environmental investigations are a common form of real estate due diligence that are governed by nationally recognized American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards and typically conducted by licensed environmental scientists. Phase I investigations commonly include a physical walk-through of the property in addition to a file review of the site. The file review includes creating a known operating history of the site. This includes, but is not limited to, inquiries with local governmental agencies as well as reviewing historical aerial reviews. If the consultant identifies any unexplained Recognized Environmental Concerns (“REC”) then the consultant typically recommends further investigation, usually through specific invasive property tests. This additional round of investigation is commonly referred to as a “Phase II”. Invasive testing may or may not include air, soil, soil vapor or ground water sampling. Additionally, it may or may not include an asbestos and/or lead-based paint survey. Depending on the results of the initial Phase II investigation, the consultant may recommend further Phase II investigations, or if satisfied with the results, the consultant may decide the initial REC identified is no longer a concern. We generally expect to continue to obtain a Phase I or similar environmental site assessments by independent environmental consultants on each property prior to acquiring it. However, these environmental assessments may not reveal all environmental costs that might have a materially adverse effect on our business, assets and results of operations or liquidity, and may not identify all potential environmental liabilities, and our portfolio environmental and any site-specific insurance policies may be insufficient to cover any such environmental costs and liabilities.
We can make no assurances that (1) future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose material environmental liabilities on us, or (2) the current environmental condition of our properties will not be affected by tenants, the condition of land or operations in the vicinity of our properties (such as releases from underground storage tanks), or by third parties unrelated to us.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Set forth below are some (but not all) of the factors that could adversely affect our performance and financial condition. Moreover, we operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor can we predict the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.
We believe the following risks are material to our stockholders. You should carefully consider the following factors in evaluating our company, our properties and our business. The occurrence of any of the following risks could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and our ability to pay distributions on, and the per share trading price of, our common stock and might cause our stockholders to lose all or part of their investment. For purposes of this section, the term “stockholders” means the holders of shares of our common stock and preferred stock.
Risks Related to Our Business and Operations
Our portfolio of properties is concentrated in the industrial real estate sector, and our business would be adversely affected by an economic downturn in that sector.
Our properties are concentrated in the industrial real estate sector. This concentration exposes us to the risk of economic downturns in this sector to a greater extent than if our business activities included a more significant portion of other sectors of the real estate industry.
Our portfolio of properties is dependent upon regional and local economic conditions and is geographically concentrated in Southern California infill markets, which causes us to be especially susceptible to adverse developments in those markets.
All of our properties are located in Southern California, which may expose us to greater or lesser economic risks than if we owned a more geographically diverse portfolio. We are particularly susceptible to adverse economic or other conditions in Southern California, as well as to natural disasters that occur in this market. Most of our properties are located in areas known to be seismically active. While we carry insurance for losses resulting from earthquakes, the amount of our coverage may not be sufficient to fully cover losses from earthquakes and associated disasters, and the policies are subject to material deductibles and self-insured retention. The Southern California market has experienced downturns in past years. Any future downturns in the Southern California economy could impact our tenants’ ability to continue to meet their rental obligations or otherwise adversely affect the size of our tenant base, which could materially adversely affect our operations and our revenue and cash available for distribution, including cash available to pay distributions to our stockholders. We cannot assure you that the Southern California market will grow or that underlying real estate fundamentals will be favorable to owners and operators of industrial properties. Our operations may also be affected if competing properties are built in the Southern California market. In addition, the State of California is regarded as more litigious and more highly regulated and taxed than many other states, all of which may reduce demand for industrial space in California and may make it costlier to operate our business. Any adverse economic or real estate developments in the Southern California market, or any decrease in demand for industrial space resulting from the regulatory environment, business climate or energy or fiscal problems, could adversely impact us and our stockholders.
Our properties are concentrated in certain industries that make us susceptible to adverse events with respect to those industries.
Our properties are concentrated in certain industries, which, as of December 31, 2019, included the following (and accounted for the percentage of our total annualized base rent indicated): Wholesale Trade (22.9%); Warehousing (17.0%); Manufacturing (16.8%); Retail Trade (9.3%); and Transportation Services (7.1%). Any downturn in one or more of these industries, or in any other industry in which we may have a significant concentration now or in the future, could adversely affect our tenants who are involved in such industries. If any of these tenants is unable to withstand such downturn or is otherwise unable to compete effectively in its business, it may be forced to declare bankruptcy, fail to meet its rental obligations, seek rental concessions or be unable to enter into new leases, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Our debt level reduces cash available for distribution and may expose us to the risk of default under our debt obligations.
Payments of principal and interest on borrowings may leave us with insufficient cash resources to operate our properties or to pay the dividends necessary to maintain our REIT qualification. Our level of debt and the limitations imposed on us by our debt agreements could have significant adverse consequences, including the following:

6



our cash flow may be insufficient to meet our required principal and interest payments;
we may be unable to borrow additional funds as needed or on favorable terms, which could, among other things, adversely affect our ability to meet operational needs;
we may be unable to refinance our indebtedness at maturity or the refinancing terms may be less favorable than the terms of our original indebtedness;
we may be forced to dispose of one or more of our properties, possibly on unfavorable terms or in violation of certain covenants to which we may be subject;
we may violate restrictive covenants in our loan documents, which would entitle the lenders to accelerate our debt obligations and, in some cases commence foreclosure proceedings on one or more of our properties; and
our default under any loan with cross default provisions could result in a default on other indebtedness.
Any loan defaults or property foreclosures may impact our ability to access capital in the future on favorable terms or at all, as well as our relationships with and/or perception among lenders, investors, tenants, brokers, analysts, vendors, employees and other parties. Furthermore, foreclosures could create taxable income without accompanying cash proceeds, which could hinder our ability to meet the REIT distribution requirements imposed by the Code. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations.”
We may be unable to identify and complete acquisitions of properties that meet our criteria, which may impede our growth.
Our business strategy involves the acquisition of industrial properties meeting certain investment criteria in our target markets. These activities require us to identify suitable acquisition candidates or investment opportunities that meet our criteria and are compatible with our growth strategies. We may be unable to acquire properties identified as potential acquisition opportunities on favorable terms, or at all, which could slow our growth.
If we are unable to finance property acquisitions or acquire properties on favorable terms, or at all, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our ability to pay distributions on, and the per share trading price of, our common stock could be adversely affected.
Our acquisition activities may pose risks that could harm our business.
As a result of our acquisitions, we may be required to incur debt and expenditures and issue additional common stock or common units to pay for the acquired properties. These acquisitions may dilute our stockholders’ ownership interest, delay or prevent our profitability and may also expose us to risks such as overpayment, reduction in value of acquired properties, and the possibility of pre-existing undisclosed liabilities, including environmental or asbestos liability, for which our insurance may be insufficient or for which we may be unable to secure insurance coverage.
We cannot provide assurance that the price for any future acquisitions will be similar to prior acquisitions. If our revenue does not keep pace with these potential acquisition and expansion costs, we may incur net losses. There is no assurance that we will successfully overcome these risks or other problems encountered with acquisitions.
We face significant competition for acquisitions of real properties, which may reduce the number of acquisition opportunities available to us and increase the costs of these acquisitions.
The current market for acquisitions of industrial properties in Southern California continues to be extremely competitive. This competition may increase the demand for our target properties and, therefore, reduce the number of suitable acquisition opportunities available to us and increase the prices paid for such acquisition properties.
We may be unable to source off-market or lightly marketed deal flow in the future.
As of December 31, 2019, approximately 71% of the acquisitions by property count completed by us since our initial public offering (“IPO”) were acquired in off-market or lightly marketed transactions, which are transactions that are characterized by a lack of a formal marketing process and lack of widely disseminated marketing materials. Properties that are acquired by off-market or lightly marketed transactions are typically more attractive to us as a purchaser and are a core part of our strategic plan, because the absence of a formal or extended marketing/bidding period typically results in more favorable pricing, more favorable non-economic terms and often an ability to close transactions more rapidly. If we cannot obtain off-market or lightly marketed deal flow in the future, our ability to locate and acquire additional properties in the manner in which we have historically may be adversely affected and may cause us to revisit our core strategies.

Our future acquisitions may not yield the returns we expect.
Our future acquisitions and our ability to successfully operate the properties we acquire in such acquisitions may be exposed to the following significant risks:
even if we are able to acquire a desired property, competition from other potential acquirers may significantly increase the purchase price;
we may acquire properties that are not accretive to our results upon acquisition, and we may not successfully manage and lease those properties to meet our expectations;
we may spend more than budgeted amounts to make necessary improvements or renovations to acquired properties;
we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations, and as a result our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected;
market conditions may result in higher than expected vacancy rates and lower than expected rental rates; and
we may acquire properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, with respect to unknown or greater than expected liabilities such as liabilities for clean-up of environmental contamination, claims by tenants, vendors or other persons dealing with the former owners of the properties, liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business and claims for indemnification by general partners, directors, officers and others indemnified by the former owners of the properties.
We may not be able to control our operating costs or our expenses may remain constant or increase, even if our revenues do not increase, causing our results of operations to be adversely affected.
Factors that may adversely affect our ability to control operating costs include the need to pay for insurance and other operating costs (including real estate taxes, which could increase over time), the need to periodically repair, renovate and re-lease space, the cost of compliance with governmental regulation, including zoning and tax laws, the potential for liability under applicable laws, interest rate levels and the availability of financing. If our operating costs increase as a result of any of the foregoing factors and/or factors cause a reduction in property income, our results of operations may be adversely affected.
High mortgage rates and/or unavailability of mortgage debt may make it difficult for us to finance or refinance properties, which could reduce the number of properties we can acquire, our net income and the amount of cash distributions we can make.
If mortgage debt is unavailable at reasonable rates, we may not be able to finance the purchase of properties. If we place mortgage debt on properties, we may be unable to refinance the properties when the loans become due, or to refinance on favorable terms. If interest rates are higher when we refinance our properties, our income could be reduced. If any of these events occur, our cash flow could be reduced. This, in turn, could reduce cash available for distribution to our stockholders and may hinder our ability to raise more capital by issuing more stock or by borrowing more money. In addition, to the extent we are unable to refinance the properties when the loans become due, we will have fewer debt guarantee opportunities available to offer under our Tax Matters Agreements, previously filed with the SEC.  
Mortgage and other secured debt obligations expose us to the possibility of foreclosure, which could result in the loss of our investment in a property or group of properties subject to mortgage debt.
Incurring mortgage and other secured debt obligations increases our risk of property losses because defaults on indebtedness secured by properties may result in foreclosure actions initiated by lenders, and ultimately our loss of the property securing any loans for which we are in default. Any foreclosure on a mortgaged property or group of properties could adversely affect the overall value of our portfolio of properties. For tax purposes, a foreclosure on any of our properties that is subject to a nonrecourse mortgage loan would be treated as a sale of the property for a purchase price equal to the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage. If the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage exceeds our tax basis in the property, we would recognize taxable income on foreclosure, but would not receive any cash proceeds, which could hinder our ability to meet the REIT distribution requirements imposed by the Code.
Some of our financing arrangements involve balloon payment obligations, which may adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to make distributions.
Some of our financing arrangements require us to make a lump-sum or “balloon” payment at maturity. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

8



Our ability to satisfy a balloon payment at maturity is uncertain and may depend upon our ability to obtain additional financing or our ability to sell the property. At the time the balloon payment is due, we may or may not be able to refinance the existing financing on terms as favorable as the original loan or sell the property at a price sufficient to satisfy the balloon payment. The effect of a refinancing or sale could affect the rate of return to stockholders and the projected time of disposition of our assets. In addition, payments of principal and interest made to service our debts may leave us with insufficient cash to pay the distributions that we are required to pay to maintain our qualification as a REIT.
Failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes may adversely affect us.  
Subject to the rules related to maintaining our qualification as a REIT, we may enter into hedging transactions to protect us from the effects of interest rate fluctuations on floating rate debt. As of December 31, 2019, we have four interest rate swaps in place for the purpose of mitigating our exposure to fluctuations in short-term interest rates. For a summary of our interest rate swaps, see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K.  
 Our future hedging transactions may include entering into additional interest rate cap agreements or interest rate swap agreements. These agreements involve risks, such as the risk that such arrangements would not be effective in reducing our exposure to interest rate changes or that a court or regulatory agency could find that such an agreement is not legally enforceable or fails to satisfy other legal requirements. In addition, interest rate hedging can be expensive, particularly during periods of rising and volatile interest rates. Hedging could reduce the overall returns on our investments. In addition, while such agreements would be intended to lessen the impact of rising interest rates on us, they could also expose us to the risk that the other parties to the agreements would not perform, we could incur significant costs associated with the settlement of the agreements or that the underlying transactions could fail to qualify as highly effective cash flow hedges under Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Further, our derivatives counterparties may be subject to new capital, margin and business conduct requirements imposed as a result of the legislation, which may increase our transaction costs or make it more difficult for us to enter into additional hedging transactions on favorable terms. Our inability to enter into future hedging transactions on favorable terms, or at all, could increase our operating expenses and put us at increased exposure to interest rate risks.
Our unsecured credit facility, unsecured notes and certain of our other secured loans contain, and any other future indebtedness we incur may contain, various covenants, including business activity restrictions, and the failure to comply with those covenants could materially adversely affect us.  
Our unsecured credit facility, unsecured notes and certain of our other secured loans contain, and any other future indebtedness we incur may contain, certain covenants, which, among other things, restrict our activities, including, as applicable, our ability to sell the underlying property without the consent of the holder of such indebtedness, to repay or defease such indebtedness, to incur additional indebtedness, to make certain investments or capital expenditures or to engage in mergers or consolidations that result in a change in control of our company. We are also subject to financial and operating covenants including, as applicable, requirements to maintain certain financial coverage ratios and restrictions on our ability to make distributions to stockholders. Failure to comply with any of these covenants would likely result in a default under the applicable indebtedness that would permit the acceleration of amounts due thereunder and under other indebtedness and foreclosure of properties, if any, serving as collateral therefor.
The business activity limitations contained in the various covenants will restrict our ability to engage in some business activities that may otherwise be in our best interests.  In addition, our unsecured credit facility, unsecured notes and secured term loan contain specific cross-default provisions with respect to specified other indebtedness, giving the lenders the right to declare a default if we are in default under other loans in some circumstances.
Adverse changes in our credit rating could impair our ability to obtain future debt and equity financing on favorable terms, if at all.
Our credit rating is based on our operating performance, liquidity and leverage ratios, overall financial position and other factors employed by the credit rating agencies in their rating analysis of us. Our credit rating can affect the amount and type of capital we can access, as well as the terms of any financings we may obtain. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our current credit rating. In the event our current credit rating is downgraded, it may become difficult or expensive to obtain additional financing or refinance existing obligations and commitments.  At December 31, 2019, the credit rating for our unsecured debt was BBB (investment grade) from Fitch, with a stable outlook, and the credit rating for our preferred stock was BB+ from Fitch, with a stable outlook. A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and is subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization.

We may be subject to litigation or threatened litigation, which may divert management time and attention, require us to pay damages and expenses or restrict the operation of our business.
We may be subject to litigation or threatened litigation. In particular, we are subject to the risk of complaints by our tenants involving premises liability claims and alleged violations of landlord-tenant laws, which may give rise to litigation or governmental investigations, as well as claims and litigation relating to real estate rights, access, legal compliance or uses of our properties, stockholder claims or claims by limited partners in our Operating Partnership, vendor contractual claims and asset purchase and sale related claims. Some of these claims may result in significant defense costs and potentially significant judgments against us, some of which are not, or cannot be, insured against. Additionally, whether or not any dispute actually proceeds to litigation, we may be required to devote significant management time and attention to its successful resolution (through litigation, settlement or otherwise), which would detract from our management’s ability to focus on our business. Any such resolution could involve the payment of damages or expenses by us, which may be significant, or involve our agreement with terms that restrict the operation of our business. We generally intend to vigorously defend ourselves; however, we cannot be certain of the ultimate outcomes of currently asserted claims or of those that may arise in the future. Resolution of these types of matters against us may result in our having to pay significant fines, judgments, or settlements, which, if uninsured, or if the fines, judgments, and settlements exceed insured levels, could adversely impact our earnings and cash flows, thereby having an adverse effect on us and our stockholders. Certain litigation or the resolution of certain litigation may affect the availability or cost of some of our insurance coverage and could expose us to increased risks that would be uninsured, and/or adversely impact our ability to attract directors, officers and other key employees. Certain litigation or threatened litigation may also adversely affect the alienability, marketability and sale of our properties.
The potential impacts of future climate change and governmental initiatives remain uncertain at this time but could result in increased operating costs.
Our assets and tenants may be exposed to potential risks from possible future climate change that could result in physical and regulatory impacts and catastrophic weather events and fires, increasing our operating costs and impairing our tenants’ ability to lease property and pay rent. Laws and regulations targeting climate change could result in stricter energy efficiency standards and increased operating costs that we may not be able to effectively pass on to our tenants. Any such regulation could impose substantial costs on our tenants, thereby impacting the financial condition of our tenants and their ability to meet their lease obligations and to lease or re-lease our properties.
Adverse U.S. and global market, economic and political conditions, global health issues and other events or circumstances beyond our control could have a material adverse effect on us.
Another economic or financial crisis or rapid decline of the consumer economy, significant concerns over energy costs, geopolitical issues, the availability and cost of credit, the U.S. mortgage market, or a declining real estate market in the U.S. can contribute to increased volatility, diminished expectations for the economy and the markets, and high levels of structural unemployment by historical standards. As was the case from 2008 through 2010, these factors, combined with volatile oil prices and fluctuating business and consumer confidence, can precipitate a steep economic decline.
Additionally, political uncertainty may contribute to potential risks beyond our control, such as:
changes in governmental policy on a variety of matters such as trade and manufacturing policies;
trade disputes and tariffs on goods from China and other countries;
possible restructuring of trade agreements;
geopolitical matters such as the exit of the United Kingdom from the European Union;
shutdowns of the U.S. federal government; and
uncertainties associated with political gridlock and the results of investigations and efforts to impeach the president.
Major health issues and pandemics, such as the coronavirus that has impacted China’s population, commerce and travel and has spread to other countries, may adversely affect trade and global and local economies. Should major public health issues, including pandemics, arise, the Company could be adversely affected by actions limiting trade and population movement, the movement of goods through the supply chain, and other impacts to business and consumer demand that may diminish the demand and rents for our properties.
It is not possible to predict whether these economic, political and global occurrences might negatively impact the economies around the world, including the U.S. and Southern California or impact financing opportunities and increase borrowing costs, all of which may exert downward pressure on the market price of our common stock.

10



Global market, political and economic challenges, including dislocations and volatility in the credit markets and general global economic uncertainty, may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our ability to pay distributions on, and the per share trading price of, our common stock as a result of the following potential consequences, among others:
decreased demand for industrial space, which would cause market rental rates and property values to be negatively impacted;
reduced values of our properties may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices, or at all, or to obtain debt financing secured by our properties and may reduce the availability of unsecured loans; and
our ability to obtain financing on terms and conditions that we find acceptable, or at all, may be limited, which could reduce our ability to pursue acquisition and redevelopment opportunities and refinance existing debt, reduce our returns from our acquisition and redevelopment activities and increase our future interest expense.
In addition, global market, political and economic conditions could adversely affect the businesses of many of our tenants. As a result, we may see increases in bankruptcies of our tenants and increased defaults by tenants, and we may experience higher vacancy rates and delays in re-leasing vacant space, which could negatively impact our business and results of operations.
Failure of the U.S. federal government to manage its fiscal matters may negatively impact the economic environment and adversely impact our results of operations.
An inability of the U.S. federal government to manage its fiscal matters, or manage its debt may result in the loss of economic confidence domestically and globally, reduce investment spending, increase borrowing costs, impact availability and cost of capital, and significantly reduce economic activity. Furthermore, a failure by the U.S. federal government to enact appropriate fiscal legislation may significantly impact the national and global economic and financial environment and affect our business and the businesses of our tenants. If economic conditions severely deteriorate as a result of government fiscal gridlock, our ability to lease space to our tenants may be significantly impacted.
An increase in interest rates could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be significantly affected by changes in interest rates and actions taken by the Federal Reserve or changes in the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or its replacement. Future increases in market interest rates would increase our interest expense under our unhedged variable rate borrowings and would increase the costs of refinancing existing indebtedness or obtaining new debt. In addition, increases in market interest rates may result in a decrease in the value of our real estate and a decrease in the market price of our common stock. Increases in market interest rates may also adversely affect the securities markets generally, which could reduce the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. Accordingly, unfavorable changes to our borrowing costs and stock price could significantly impact our ability to access new debt and equity capital going forward.
Changes in laws, regulations, and financial accounting standards may adversely affect our reported results of operations.
Legislative, regulatory, and accounting standard-setting bodies in the U.S., California and globally may promulgate new and modified laws, regulations, and accounting standards focused on financial, banking and real estate sectors.
A high degree of regulatory uncertainty, coupled with considerable additional uncertainty regarding the underlying condition and prospects of global, domestic, and local economies, has created a business environment that makes business planning and projections even more uncertain than is ordinarily the case for businesses in the financial and real estate sectors. Proposals have been made at the federal level and state laws enacted in California to interject certain governmental controls over board composition and actions, which may have unintended and uncertain consequences for companies.
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). In the commercial real estate sector in which we operate, the uncertainties posed by various initiatives of accounting standard-setting authorities to fundamentally rewrite major bodies of accounting literature constitute a significant source of uncertainty as to the basic rules of business engagement.  Changes in accounting standards, requirements and valuations may have a significant effect on our financial results and on the results of our client tenants, which would have a secondary impact on us.  New accounting pronouncements and interpretations of existing pronouncements are likely to continue to occur at an accelerated pace as a result of recent Congressional and regulatory actions and continuing efforts by the accounting profession itself to reform and modernize its principles and procedures.
We may be adversely affected by new or amended laws or regulations, including legislation commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “2017 Tax Reform Act”) and other changes in federal, state, or foreign tax laws and regulations, and by changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and regulations.  It is possible that the long term effects of the

11



2017 Tax Reform Act’s reduced federal deductions for state and local taxes and mortgage interest for individual taxpayers, which may result in higher taxes for the principals and employees of our California-based tenants, will impact our tenants in a manner that limits their ability to pay rent or higher rent, retain employees or maintain operations in California. Any economic slowdowns may prompt a variety of legislative, regulatory, and accounting profession responses.
Regulation of the banking and investment banking industries, has and may continue to result in, substantial changes and dislocations in the banking industry and the financial services sector in ways that could have significant effects on, for example, the availability and pricing of unsecured credit, commercial mortgage credit, and derivatives, such as interest rate swaps, which are important aspects of our business.
We are subject to financial reporting and other requirements for which our accounting, internal audit and other management systems and resources may not be adequately prepared, and we may not be able to accurately report our financial results.
We are subject to reporting and other obligations under the Exchange Act, including the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404 requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and a report by our independent registered public accounting firm addressing these assessments. These reporting and other obligations place significant demands on our management, administrative, operational, internal audit and accounting resources and cause us to incur significant expenses, and changes to our business will necessitate ongoing changes to our internal control systems and processes. We may need to upgrade our systems or create new systems; implement additional financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures; expand our internal audit function; and hire additional accounting, internal audit and finance staff. If we are unable to accomplish these objectives in a timely and effective fashion, our ability to comply with the financial reporting requirements and other rules that apply to reporting companies could be impaired. Any failure to maintain effective internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and price of our common stock.
While management continually reviews the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, there can be no guarantee that our internal control over financial reporting will be effective in accomplishing all control objectives all of the time. Deficiencies, including any material weakness, in our internal control over financial reporting that may occur in the future could result in misstatements or restatements of our financial statements or a decline in the price of our securities.
We may be unable to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-lease space as leases expire, or renewing existing leases may require significant concession, inducements and/or capital expenditures.
As of December 31, 2019, 2.6% of the rentable square footage of our portfolio was available for lease and leases representing 0.5% of the rentable square footage of our portfolio expired on December 31, 2019. In addition, leases representing 14.7% and 19.8% of the rentable square footage of the properties in our portfolio will expire in 2020 and 2021. We cannot assure you that our leases will be renewed or that our properties will be re-leased at rental rates equal to or above the current average rental rates or that we will not offer substantial rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options to attract new tenants or retain existing tenants. If the rental rates for our properties decrease, or if our existing tenants do not renew their leases or we do not re-lease a significant portion of our available space and space for which leases will expire, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our ability to pay distributions on, and the per share trading price of, our common stock could be adversely affected. In order to attract and retain tenants, we may be required to make rent or other concessions to tenants, accommodate requests for renovations, build-to-suit remodeling and other improvements or provide additional services to our tenants. Additionally, we may need to raise capital to make such expenditures. If we are unable to do so or if capital is otherwise unavailable, we may be unable to make the required expenditures. This could result in non-renewals by tenants upon expiration of their leases and/or an inability to attract new tenants.
We face significant competition in the leasing market, which may decrease or prevent increases of the occupancy and rental rates of our properties.
We compete with numerous developers, owners and operators of real estate, many of which own properties similar to ours in the same submarkets in which our properties are located. If our competitors offer space at rental rates below current market rates, or below the rental rates we currently charge our tenants, we may lose existing or potential tenants and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below those we currently charge or to offer more substantial tenant concessions or tenant rights (including rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options) in order to retain tenants when our tenants’ leases expire or to attract new tenants. Furthermore, as a result of various factors, including competitive pricing pressure in our submarkets, adverse conditions in the Southern California real estate market, a general economic downturn and a decline in the desirability of our properties compared to other properties in our submarkets, we may be

12



unable to realize the budgeted rents for properties in our portfolio. If we are unable to obtain rental rates comparable to our asking rents for properties in our portfolio, our ability to generate cash flow growth will be negatively impacted. Significant rent reductions could result in a write-down of one or more of our consolidated properties and/or adversely affect the market price of our common stock, our financial condition and our results of operations, including our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends to our stockholders.
A substantial majority of the leases at our properties are with tenants who have non-investment grade credit ratings, which may result in our leasing to tenants that are more likely to default in their obligations to us than a tenant with an investment grade credit rating.
A substantial majority of the leases at our properties are with tenants who have non-investment grade credit ratings. The ability of a non-investment grade tenant to meet its obligations to us cannot be considered as well assured as that of an investment grade tenant. All of our tenants may face exposure to adverse business or economic conditions which could lead to an inability to meet their obligations to us. However, non-investment grade tenants may not have the financial capacity or liquidity to adapt to these conditions or may have less diversified businesses, which may exacerbate the effects of adverse conditions on their businesses. Moreover, the fact that a substantial majority of our tenants are not investment grade may cause investors or lenders to view our cash flows as less stable, which may increase our cost of capital, limit our financing options or adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.
Historically, some of our tenants have filed for bankruptcy protection or become insolvent. This may occur with tenants in the future, and we are particularly at risk because of the credit rating of much of our tenant base. The bankruptcy or insolvency of a major tenant also may adversely affect the income produced by our properties. 
We may acquire properties or portfolios of properties through tax-deferred contribution transactions, which could result in stockholder dilution and limit our ability to sell such assets.
We may continue to acquire properties or portfolios of properties through tax-deferred contribution transactions in exchange for partnership interests in our Operating Partnership, which may result in stockholder dilution. This acquisition structure may have the effect of, among other things, reducing the amount of tax depreciation we are able to deduct over the tax life of the acquired properties, and may require that we agree to protect the contributors’ ability to defer recognition of taxable gain through restrictions on our ability to dispose of the acquired properties and/or the allocation of partnership debt to the contributors to maintain their tax bases. These restrictions limit our ability to sell an asset at a time, or on terms, that would be favorable absent such restrictions.
Our real estate development, redevelopment and repositioning activities are subject to risks particular to development, redevelopment and repositioning.
We may engage in development, redevelopment or repositioning activities with respect to certain of our properties. To the extent that we do so, we will be subject to the following risks associated with such development, redevelopment and repositioning activities:
construction, redevelopment or repositioning may be unsuccessful and/or costs of a project may exceed original estimates, possibly making the project less profitable than originally estimated, or unprofitable;
time required to complete the construction, redevelopment or repositioning of a project or to lease up the completed project may be greater than originally anticipated, thereby adversely affecting our cash flow and liquidity;
contractor and subcontractor disputes, strikes, labor disputes or supply disruptions, which may cause delays or increase costs;
failure to achieve expected occupancy and/or rent levels within the projected time frame, if at all;
delays with respect to obtaining, or the inability to obtain, necessary zoning, occupancy, land use and other governmental permits, and changes in zoning and land use laws;
occupancy rates and rents of a completed project may not be sufficient to make the project profitable;
our ability to dispose of properties developed, redeveloped or repositioned with the intent to sell could be impacted by the ability of prospective buyers to obtain financing given the current state of the credit markets; and
the availability and pricing of financing to fund our development activities on favorable terms or at all.
These risks could result in substantial unanticipated delays or expenses and, under certain circumstances, could prevent completion of development, redevelopment or repositioning activities once undertaken.

13



Our success depends on key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed, and the loss of one or more of our key personnel could adversely affect our ability to manage our business and to implement our growth strategies, or could create a negative perception in the capital markets.
Our continued success and our ability to manage anticipated future growth depend, in large part, upon the efforts of key personnel, who have extensive market knowledge and relationships and exercise substantial influence over our operational, financing, acquisition and disposition activity.
We have not obtained and do not expect to obtain key man life insurance on any of our key personnel. The loss of services of one or more members of our senior management team and key personnel, or our inability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel, could adversely affect our business, diminish our investment opportunities and weaken our relationships with lenders, business partners, existing and prospective tenants and industry participants. Further, the loss of a member of our senior management team could be negatively perceived in the capital markets.
Potential losses, including from adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, may not be covered by insurance.
We carry commercial property, liability, environmental, earthquake and terrorism coverage on all the properties in our consolidated portfolio under a blanket insurance policy, in addition to other coverages that are appropriate for certain of our properties. We will select policy specifications and insured limits that we believe to be appropriate and adequate given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage and industry practice. Some of our policies are insured subject to limitations involving significant deductibles or co-payments and policy limits that may not be sufficient to cover losses. In addition, we may discontinue terrorism or other insurance on some or all of our properties in the future if the cost of premiums for any such policies exceeds, in our judgment, the value of the coverage discounted for the risk of loss. Currently, we do not carry insurance for certain types of extraordinary losses, such as loss from riots, war and wildfires because we believe such coverage is cost prohibitive or available at a disproportionately high cost. As a result, we may incur significant costs in the event of loss from wildfires, riots, war and other uninsured losses. If we do obtain insurance for any of those risks in the future, such insurance cost may impact the operating costs and net cash flow of our properties.
If we or one or more of our tenants experiences a loss that is uninsured or that exceeds policy limits, we could lose the capital invested in the damaged properties as well as the anticipated future cash flows from those properties. In addition, if the damaged properties are subject to recourse indebtedness, we would continue to be liable for the indebtedness, even if these properties were irreparably damaged. Furthermore, we may not be able to obtain adequate insurance coverage at reasonable costs in the future as the costs associated with property and casualty renewals may be higher than anticipated.
All of the properties in our portfolio are located in areas that are prone to earthquake activity.
All of the properties in our portfolio are located in Southern California, an area that is particularly prone to seismic activity.  According to the U.S. Geological Service, in places where fault systems do not experience frequent tiny shocks and a few moderate earth tremors, strain can build up, producing earthquakes when the strain on tectonic plates releases. In Southern California, the largest most recent quake occurred in 1994 in Northridge, over 20 years ago. A severe earthquake in the Southern California region could result in uninsured damage to a subset or even a substantial portion of our portfolio and could significantly impact our cash flow.  
While we carry insurance for losses resulting from earthquakes, such policies are subject to material deductibles and self-insured retention. Additionally, natural disasters, including earthquakes, may cause future earthquake insurance costs to increase significantly, which may impact the operating costs and net cash flow of our properties.
We may not be able to rebuild our existing properties to their existing specifications if we experience a substantial or comprehensive loss of such properties.
In the event that we experience a substantial or comprehensive loss of one of our properties, we may not be able to rebuild such property to its existing specifications. Further, reconstruction or improvement of such a property would likely require significant upgrades to meet zoning and building code requirements. Environmental, insurance and legal restrictions could also restrict the rebuilding of our properties.
Existing conditions at some of our properties may expose us to liability related to environmental matters.
Phase I or similar environmental site assessments, which are limited in scope, conducted by independent environmental consultants on most of our properties at the time of their acquisition or in connection with subsequent financings may not include or identify all potential environmental liabilities or risks associated with the relevant properties and are not updated in the

14



ordinary course of business absent a specific need. This may expose us to liability related to unknown or unanticipated environmental matters. Unless required by applicable laws or regulations, we may not further investigate, remedy or ameliorate the liabilities disclosed in the existing Phase Is or similar environmental site assessments, and this failure may expose us to liability in the future. While we maintain portfolio environmental and some site-specific insurance policies, they may be insufficient to cover any such environmental costs and liabilities.
Joint venture investments could be adversely affected by our lack of sole decision-making authority, our reliance on co-venturers’ financial condition and disputes between us and our co-venturers.
We have co-invested in the past, and may co-invest again in the future, with third parties through partnerships, joint ventures or other entities, acquiring non-controlling interests in or sharing responsibility for managing the affairs of a property, partnership, joint venture or other entity. In such event, we would not be in a position to exercise sole decision-making authority regarding the property, partnership, joint venture or other entity, involving risks not present were a third party not involved, including the possibility that partners or co-venturers might become bankrupt or fail to fund their share of required capital contributions, disputes and litigation. Partners or co-venturers may have economic or other business interests or goals which are inconsistent with our business interests or goals, and may be in a position to take actions contrary to our policies or objectives, and they may have competing interests in our markets that could create conflict of interest issues. Such investments may also have the potential risk of impasses on decisions, such as a sale, because neither we nor the partner or co-venturer would have full control over the partnership or joint venture. In addition, prior consent of our joint venture partners may be required for a sale or transfer to a third party of our interests in the joint venture, which would restrict our ability to dispose of our interest in the joint venture. In addition, we may in certain circumstances be liable for the actions of our third-party partners or co-venturers. Our joint ventures may be subject to debt and, in volatile credit markets, the refinancing of such debt may require equity capital calls.
Our growth depends on external sources of capital that are outside of our control and may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all.
In order to qualify and maintain our qualification as a REIT, we are required under the Code, among other things, to distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding any net capital gain. In addition, we will be subject to income tax at regular corporate rates to the extent that we distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction, including any net capital gains. Because of these distribution requirements, we are highly dependent on third-party sources to fund capital needs, including any necessary acquisition financing. We may not be able to obtain such financing on favorable terms or at all and any additional debt we incur will increase our leverage and likelihood of default. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends, in part, on:
general market conditions;
the market’s perception of our growth potential;
our current debt levels;
our current and expected future earnings;
our cash flow and cash distributions; and
the trading price of our common stock.
In prior years, the capital markets have been subject to periodic disruptions.  Our inability to obtain capital when needed could have a material adverse effect on our ability to expand our business, implement our growth plan and fund other cash requirements.  If we cannot obtain capital from third-party sources on favorable terms or at all when desired, we may not be able to acquire or develop properties when strategic opportunities exist, meet the capital and operating needs of our existing properties, satisfy our debt service obligations or make the cash distributions to our stockholders necessary to maintain our qualification as a REIT. To the extent that capital is not available to acquire properties, profits may not be realized or their realization may be delayed, which could result in an earnings stream that is less predictable than some of our competitors and result in us not meeting our projected earnings and distributable cash flow levels in a particular reporting period. Failure to meet our projected earnings and distributable cash flow levels in a particular reporting period could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and on the market price of our stock.
We face risks associated with security breaches through cyber-attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our information technology (“IT”) networks and related systems.
We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusions over the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e‑mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to systems inside our

15



organization, and other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber-attack or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day‑to‑day operations and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems, and we have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, including the engagement of independent third party consultants to analyze any vulnerabilities, implementation of software and systems intended to reduce the risk of IT security breaches, and ongoing cyber security education and training for employees throughout the year, there can be no assurance that our security efforts and measures will be effective or that attempted security breaches or disruptions would not be successful or damaging. Even the most well protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases, are designed to not be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to entirely mitigate this risk. A security breach or other significant disruption involving our IT networks and related systems could:
Disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems;
Result in misstated financial reports, violations of loan covenants and/or missed reporting deadlines;
Result in our inability to properly monitor our compliance with the rules and regulations regarding our qualification as a REIT;
Result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could use to compete against us or for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes;
Require significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result;
Subject us to claims for breach of contract or failure to safeguard personal information, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements;
Damage our reputation among our tenants, prospective sellers, brokers and investors generally; and
Subject us to legal liability, including liability under the California Consumer Privacy Protection Act of 2018.

Risks Related to the Real Estate Industry
Our performance and value are subject to risks associated with real estate assets and the real estate industry.
Our ability to pay expected dividends to our stockholders depends on our ability to generate revenues in excess of expenses, scheduled principal payments on debt and capital expenditure requirements. Events and conditions generally applicable to owners and operators of real property that are beyond our control may decrease cash available for distribution and the value of our properties. These events include many of the risks set forth above under “—Risks Related to Our Business and Operations,” as well as the following:
local oversupply in connection with increased vacancies or reduction in demand for industrial space;
adverse changes in financial conditions of buyers, sellers and tenants of properties;
vacancies or our inability to rent space on favorable terms, including possible market pressures to offer tenants rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options, and the need to periodically repair, renovate and re-lease space;
increased operating costs, including insurance premiums, utilities, real estate taxes and state and local taxes;
civil unrest, acts of war, terrorist attacks and natural disasters, including earthquakes, floods and wildfires, which may result in uninsured or underinsured losses;
decreases in the market value of our properties;
changing submarket demographics; and
changing traffic patterns.
In addition, periods of economic downturn or recession, rising interest rates or declining demand for real estate, or the public perception that any of these events may occur, could result in a general decline in rents or an increased incidence of defaults under existing leases.  

16



Illiquidity of real estate investments could significantly impede our ability to sell a property if and when we decide to do so or to respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties and harm our financial condition.
The real estate investments made, and to be made, by us are relatively difficult to sell quickly. As a result, our ability to promptly sell one or more properties in our portfolio in response to changing economic, financial and investment conditions is limited. Our ability to dispose of properties on advantageous terms depends on factors beyond our control, including competition from other sellers and the availability of attractive financing for potential buyers of our properties. We cannot predict the various market conditions affecting the industrial real estate market which will exist at any particular time in the future. Due to the uncertainty of market conditions which may affect the future disposition of our properties, we cannot assure you that we will be able to sell any properties identified for sale at favorable pricing and may not receive net income from the transaction.
Return of capital and realization of gains, if any, from an investment generally will occur upon disposition or refinancing of the underlying property. We may be unable to realize our investment objectives by sale, other disposition or refinancing at attractive prices within any given period of time or may otherwise be unable to complete any exit strategy. In particular, our ability to dispose of one or more properties within a specific time period is subject to certain limitations imposed by our Tax Matters Agreements, as well as weakness in or even the lack of an established market for a property, changes in the financial condition or prospects of prospective purchasers, changes in national or international economic conditions, and changes in laws, regulations or fiscal policies of jurisdictions in which the property is located.
In addition, the Code imposes restrictions on a REIT’s ability to dispose of properties that are not applicable to other types of real estate companies. In particular, the tax laws applicable to REITs effectively require that we hold our properties for investment, rather than primarily for sale in the ordinary course of business, which may cause us to forgo or defer sales of properties that otherwise would be in our best interest. Therefore, we may not be able to vary our portfolio in response to economic or other conditions promptly or on favorable terms.  
Declining real estate valuations and impairment charges could materially adversely affect us.
We intend to review the carrying value of our properties when circumstances, such as adverse market conditions, indicate a potential impairment may exist. We intend to base our review on an estimate of the future cash flows (excluding interest charges) expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition on an undiscounted basis. We intend to consider factors such as future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If our evaluation indicates that we may be unable to recover the carrying value of a real estate investment, an impairment loss will be recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property.
Impairment losses have a direct impact on our operating results, because recording an impairment loss results in a negative adjustment to our publicly reported operating results. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is highly subjective and is based in part on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results in future periods. A worsening real estate market may cause us to reevaluate the assumptions used in our impairment analysis.
Adverse economic conditions and the dislocation in the credit markets could materially adversely affect us.
Economic conditions can be unpredictable and vary greatly, creating uncertainty and in some cases severely impacted the lending and capital markets, particularly for real estate. When occurring, these conditions may limit the amount of indebtedness we are able to obtain and our ability to refinance our indebtedness, and may impede our ability to develop new properties and to replace construction financing with permanent financing, which could result in our having to sell properties at inopportune times and on unfavorable terms.
Any lack of availability of debt financing may require us to rely more heavily on additional equity issuances, which may be dilutive to our current stockholders, or on less efficient forms of debt financing.
Acquired properties may be located in new markets where we may face risks associated with investing in an unfamiliar market.
We have acquired properties in markets that are new to us. For example, our predecessor business acquired properties in Arizona and Illinois as part of an acquisition of a portfolio of properties that included four other properties located in our target markets. When we acquire properties located in new markets, we may face risks associated with a lack of market knowledge or understanding of the local economy, forging new business relationships in the area and unfamiliarity with local government and permitting procedures.

17



We may choose not to distribute the proceeds of any sales of real estate to our stockholders, which may reduce the amount of our cash distributions to stockholders.
We may choose not to distribute any proceeds from the sale of real estate investments to our stockholders. Instead, we may elect to use such proceeds to:
acquire additional real estate investments;
repay debt;
create working capital reserves; or
make repairs, maintenance, tenant improvements or other capital improvements or expenditures on our other properties.
Any decision to retain or invest the proceeds of any sales, rather than distribute such proceeds to our stockholders, may reduce the amount of cash distributions to equity holders.
If any of our insurance carriers becomes insolvent, we could be adversely affected.
We carry several different lines of insurance, placed with several large insurance carriers that we believe have good ratings at the time our policies are put into effect. If any one of these large insurance carriers were to become insolvent, we would be forced to replace the existing insurance coverage with another suitable carrier, and any outstanding claims would be at significant risk for collection. In such an event, we cannot be certain that we would be able to replace the coverage at similar or otherwise favorable terms. Replacing insurance coverage at unfavorable rates and the potential of uncollectible claims due to carrier insolvency would likely adversely affect us.
Our property taxes could increase due to property tax rate changes or reassessment, which could adversely impact our cash flows.
Even if we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we will be required to pay some state and local taxes on our properties. The real property taxes on our properties may increase as property tax rates change or as our properties are assessed or reassessed by taxing authorities. All our properties located in California may be reassessed as a result of various factors including, without limitation, changes in California laws that contain certain limitations on annual increases of assessed value of real property, commonly referred to as Proposition 13 Protections. A measure proposing to remove certain Proposition 13 Protections for commercial real estate owners qualified as a November 2020 California ballot measure. Therefore, the amount of property taxes we pay in the future may increase substantially from what we have paid in the past, some of which we may be unable to pass through to our tenants. If the property taxes we pay increase, our cash flow would be adversely impacted to the extent that we are not reimbursed by tenants for those taxes.
We could incur significant costs related to government regulation and litigation over environmental matters.
Under various federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the environment, as a current or former owner or operator of real property, we may be liable for costs and damages resulting from the presence or discharge of hazardous or toxic substances, waste or petroleum products at, on, in, under or migrating to or from such property, including costs to investigate, clean up such contamination and liability for harm to natural resources. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such contamination, and the liability may be joint and several. These liabilities could be substantial and the cost of any required remediation, removal, fines or other costs could exceed the value of the property and in some cases our aggregate net asset value. In addition, the presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contamination at our properties may expose us to third-party liability for costs of remediation and/or personal, property, or natural resources damage or materially adversely affect our ability to sell, lease or develop our properties or to borrow using the properties as collateral. In addition, environmental laws may create liens on contaminated sites in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs to address such contamination. Moreover, if contamination is discovered on our properties, environmental laws may impose restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures.
Some of our properties have been or may be impacted by contamination arising from current or prior uses of the property, or adjacent properties, for commercial or industrial purposes. Such contamination may arise from spills of petroleum or hazardous substances or releases from tanks used to store such material known or suspected to exist at a number of our properties which may result in further investigation, remediation, or deed restrictions. Further, certain of our properties are adjacent to or near other properties that have contained or currently contain petroleum or other hazardous substances, or at which others have engaged or may engage in activities that may release such hazardous substances. Adjacent property uses are identified in standard ASTM procedures in Phase I environmental studies. In addition to a blanket environmental insurance policy, as needed, we may

18



obtain environmental insurance policies on commercially reasonable terms that provide coverage for potential environmental liabilities, subject to the policy’s coverage conditions and limitations. However, these policies are subject to certain limits, deductibles and exclusions, and insurance may not fully compensate us for any environmental liability. From time to time, we may acquire properties with known adverse environmental conditions where we believe that the environmental liabilities associated with these conditions are quantifiable and that the acquisition will yield a superior risk-adjusted return. We usually perform a Phase I environmental site assessment at any property we are considering acquiring. Phase I environmental site assessments are limited in scope and do not involve sampling of soil, soil vapor, or groundwater, and these assessments may not include or identify all potential environmental liabilities or risks associated with the property. Even where subsurface investigation is performed, it can be very difficult to ascertain the full extent of environmental contamination or the costs that are likely to flow from such contamination. We cannot assure you that the Phase I environmental site assessment or other environmental studies identified all potential environmental liabilities, or that we will not face significant remediation costs or other environmental contamination that makes it difficult to sell any affected properties. Also, we have not always implemented actions recommended by these assessments, and recommended investigation and remediation of known or suspected contamination has not always been performed. Contamination may exist at many of our properties, and governmental regulators or third parties could seek to force us to contribute to investigation or remediation or known or suspected contamination. As a result, we could potentially incur material liability for these issues.
Environmental laws also govern the presence, maintenance and removal of asbestos-containing building materials, or ACBM, and may impose fines and penalties for failure to comply with these requirements. Such laws require that owners or operators of buildings containing ACBM (and employers in such buildings) properly manage and maintain the asbestos, adequately notify or train those who may come into contact with asbestos, and undertake special precautions, including removal or other abatement, if asbestos would be disturbed during renovation or demolition of a building. In addition, the presence of ACBM in our properties may expose us to third-party liability (e.g., liability for personal injury associated with exposure to asbestos).
In addition, the properties in our portfolio also are subject to various federal, state and local environmental, health and safety requirements, such as state and local fire requirements. Moreover, some of our tenants routinely handle and use hazardous or regulated substances and wastes as part of their operations at our properties, which are subject to regulation. Such environmental, health and safety laws and regulations could subject us or our tenants to liability resulting from these activities. Environmental liabilities could affect a tenant’s ability to make rental payments to us. In addition, changes in laws could increase the potential liability for noncompliance. This may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise materially and adversely affect our operations, or those of our tenants, which could in turn have an adverse effect on us. Further, these environmental, health and safety laws could become more stringent in the future, and this could subject us or our tenants to new or greater liability.
We cannot assure you that remedial measures and other costs or liabilities incurred as a result of environmental issues will be immaterial to our overall financial position. If we do incur material environmental liabilities in the future, we may face significant remediation costs, and we may find it difficult to sell any affected properties.
Our properties may contain or develop harmful mold or suffer from other air quality issues, which could lead to liability for adverse health effects and costs of remediation.
When excessive moisture accumulates in buildings or on building materials, mold growth may occur, particularly if the moisture problem remains undiscovered or is not addressed over a period of time. Some molds may produce airborne toxins or irritants. Indoor air quality issues can also stem from inadequate ventilation, chemical contamination from indoor or outdoor sources, and other biological contaminants such as pollen, viruses and bacteria. Indoor exposure to airborne toxins or irritants above certain levels can be alleged to cause a variety of adverse health effects and symptoms, including allergic or other reactions. As a result, the presence of significant mold or other airborne contaminants at any of our properties could require us to undertake a costly remediation program to contain or remove the mold or other airborne contaminants from the affected property or increase indoor ventilation. In addition, the presence of significant mold or other airborne contaminants could expose us to liability from our tenants, employees of our tenants or others if property damage or personal injury is alleged to have occurred.
We may incur significant costs complying with various federal, state and local laws, regulations and covenants that are applicable to our properties.
The properties in our portfolio are subject to various covenants and federal, state and local laws and regulatory requirements, including permitting and licensing requirements. Local regulations, including municipal or local ordinances and zoning restrictions, may restrict our use of our properties and may require us to obtain approval from local officials or restrict our use of our properties and may require us to obtain approval from local officials of community standards organizations at any time with respect to our properties, including prior to acquiring a property or when undertaking renovations to any of our existing

19



properties. Among other things, these restrictions may relate to fire and safety, seismic or hazardous material abatement requirements. There can be no assurance that existing laws and regulatory policies will not adversely affect us or the timing or cost of any future acquisitions or renovations, or that additional regulations will not be adopted that increase such delays or result in additional costs. Our growth strategy may be affected by our ability to obtain permits, licenses and zoning relief.
In addition, federal and state laws and regulations, including laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act and parallel California Statutes, or ADA, and the Fair Housing Amendment Act of 1988, or FHAA, impose further restrictions on our properties and operations. Under the ADA and the FHAA, all public accommodations must meet federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Some of our properties may currently be in non-compliance with the ADA or the FHAA. If one or more of the properties in our portfolio is not in compliance with the ADA, the FHAA or any other regulatory requirements, we may be required to incur additional costs to bring the property into compliance, including the removal of access barriers, and we might incur governmental fines or the award of damages to private litigants. In addition, we do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether future requirements will require us to make significant unanticipated expenditures.
Furthermore, while leases with our tenants generally include provisions to obligate the tenants to comply with all laws and operate within a defined use, there is no guaranty that the tenants will comply with the terms of their leases. We may incur costs to bring a property into legal compliance even though the tenant may have been contractually required to comply and pay for the cost of compliance. Our tenants may disregard the use restrictions contained in the leases and conduct operations not contemplated by the lease, such as prohibited uses related to cannabis or highly hazardous uses, for example, despite our efforts to prohibit certain uses.
Under California energy efficiency standards, enacted and periodically amended, including, without limitation, Title 24 or The Energy Efficiency Standards for Residential and Nonresidential Buildings, building owners may incur increased costs to renovate properties in order to meet changing energy efficiency standards and make energy usage disclosures. If we are required to make unanticipated expenditures or substantial modifications to our properties, our financial condition, cash flows, results of operations, the market price of our shares of common stock and preferred stock and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders could be adversely affected. We may incur additional costs collecting and reporting energy usage data from our tenants and properties in order to comply with such energy efficiency standards.
Changes in the method of determining LIBOR, or the replacement of LIBOR with an alternative reference rate, may adversely affect interest expense related to outstanding debt.
We hold certain debt instruments on which interest rates move in direct relation to LIBOR, depending on our selection of borrowing options. Governance and oversight bodies have instituted rules and reforms directed at minimizing the risk of LIBOR manipulation, which may have occurred in the past and could have an adverse impact on the level of the index.
In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee ("ARRC") has proposed that the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") is the rate that represents best practice as the alternative to U.S. dollar LIBOR (“USD LIBOR”) for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to USD LIBOR. ARRC has proposed a paced market transition plan to SOFR from USD LIBOR and organizations are currently working on industry wide and company specific transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to USD LIBOR. Whether or not SOFR will attain market traction as a USD LIBOR replacement tool remains in question. As such, the future of LIBOR at this time is uncertain. If LIBOR ceases to exist, the interest rates on our debt which is indexed to LIBOR will be determined using a different successor rate, which may adversely affect interest expense and may result in interest obligations which are more than or do not otherwise correlate over time with the payments that would have been made on such debt if USD LIBOR was available in its current form. We are currently monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks.
Risks Related to Our Organizational Structure
Conflicts of interest may exist or could arise in the future between the interests of our stockholders and the interests of holders of common units, which may impede business decisions that could benefit our stockholders.
Conflicts of interest may exist or could arise in the future as a result of the relationships between us and our affiliates, on the one hand, and our Operating Partnership or any partner thereof, on the other. Our directors and officers have duties to our company under Maryland law in connection with their management of our company. At the same time, we, as the general partner of our Operating Partnership, have fiduciary duties and obligations to our Operating Partnership and its limited partners under Maryland law and the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership in connection with the management of our Operating Partnership. Our fiduciary duties and obligations as the general partner of our Operating Partnership may come into conflict with the duties of our directors and officers to our company.

20



Under Maryland law, a general partner of a Maryland limited partnership has fiduciary duties of loyalty and care to the partnership and its partners and must discharge its duties and exercise its rights as general partner under the partnership agreement or Maryland law consistent with the obligation of good faith and fair dealing. The partnership agreement provides that, in the event of a conflict between the interests of our Operating Partnership or any partner, on the one hand, and the separate interests of our company or our stockholders, on the other hand, we, in our capacity as the general partner of our Operating Partnership, may give priority to the separate interests of our company or our stockholders (including with respect to tax consequences to limited partners, assignees or our stockholders), and, in the event of such a conflict, any action or failure to act on our part or on the part of our directors that gives priority to the separate interests of our company or our stockholders that does not result in a violation of the contract rights of the limited partners of our Operating Partnership under its partnership agreement does not violate the duty of loyalty or any other duty that we, in our capacity as the general partner of our Operating Partnership, owe to our Operating Partnership and its partners or violate the obligation of good faith and fair dealing.
Additionally, the partnership agreement provides that we generally will not be liable to our Operating Partnership or any partner for any action or omission taken in our capacity as general partner, for the debts or liabilities of our Operating Partnership or for the obligations of the Operating Partnership under the partnership agreement, except for liability for our fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, pursuant to any express indemnity we may give to our Operating Partnership or in connection with a redemption.  Our Operating Partnership must indemnify us, our directors and officers, officers of our Operating Partnership and our designees from and against any and all claims that relate to the operations of our Operating Partnership, unless (1) an act or omission of the person was material to the matter giving rise to the action and either was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (2) the person actually received an improper personal benefit in violation or breach of the partnership agreement or (3) in the case of a criminal proceeding, the indemnified person had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. Our Operating Partnership must also pay or reimburse the reasonable expenses of any such person in advance of a final disposition of the proceeding upon its receipt of a written affirmation of the person’s good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification has been met and a written undertaking to repay any amounts paid or advanced if it is ultimately determined that the person did not meet the standard of conduct for indemnification. Our Operating Partnership is not required to indemnify or advance funds to any person with respect to any action initiated by the person seeking indemnification without our approval (except for any proceeding brought to enforce such person’s right to indemnification under the partnership agreement) or if the person is found to be liable to our Operating Partnership on any portion of any claim in the action. No reported decision of a Maryland appellate court has interpreted provisions similar to the provisions of the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership that modify and reduce our fiduciary duties or obligations as the general partner or reduce or eliminate our liability to our Operating Partnership and its partners, and we have not obtained an opinion of counsel as to the enforceability of the provisions set forth in the partnership agreement that purport to modify or reduce the fiduciary duties and obligations that would be in effect were it not for the partnership agreement.
Some of our directors and executive officers have outside business interests, including interests in real estate-related businesses, and, therefore, may have conflicts of interest with us.
Certain of our executive officers and directors have outside business interests, including interests in real estate-related businesses, and may own equity securities of public and private real estate companies. Our executive officers’ and directors’ interests in these entities could create a conflict of interest, especially when making determinations regarding our renewal of leases with tenants subject to these leases. Our executive officers’ involvement in other businesses and real estate-related activities could divert their attention from our day-to-day operations, and state law may limit our ability to enforce any non-compete agreements.
We could increase the number of authorized shares of stock, classify and reclassify unissued stock and issue stock without stockholder approval.
Our board of directors, without stockholder approval, has the power under our charter to amend our charter to increase the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we are authorized to issue, to authorize us to issue authorized but unissued shares of our common stock or preferred stock and to classify or reclassify any unissued shares of our common stock or preferred stock into one or more classes or series of stock and set the terms of such newly classified or reclassified shares. As a result, we may issue classes or series of common stock or preferred stock with preferences, powers and rights, voting or otherwise, that are senior to, or otherwise conflict with, the rights of holders of our common stock. Although our board of directors has no such intention at the present time, it could establish a class or series of preferred stock that could, depending on the terms of such series, delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stock or that our stockholders otherwise believe to be in their best interest.

21



Certain provisions of Maryland law could inhibit changes in control, which may discourage third parties from conducting a tender offer or seeking other change of control transactions that could involve a premium price for our common stock or that our stockholders otherwise believe to be in their best interest.
Certain provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law (“MGCL”), may have the effect of inhibiting a third party from making a proposal to acquire us or of impeding a change of control under circumstances that otherwise could provide the holders of shares of our common stock with the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market price of such shares, including:
“Business combination” provisions that, subject to certain exceptions, prohibit certain business combinations between us and an “interested stockholder” (defined generally as any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of our shares or an affiliate or associate of ours who was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of our then outstanding voting stock at any time within the two-year period immediately prior to the date in question) or an affiliate thereof for five years after the most recent date on which the stockholder becomes an interested stockholder, and thereafter impose fair price or supermajority stockholder voting requirements on these combinations; and
“Control share” provisions that provide that holders of “control shares” of our company (defined as shares that, when aggregated with other shares controlled by the stockholder, entitle the stockholder to exercise voting power in the election of directors within one of three increasing ranges) acquired in a “control share acquisition” (defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of the voting power of issued and outstanding “control shares,” subject to certain exceptions) have no voting rights with respect to their control shares, except to the extent approved by our stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding all interested shares.
As permitted by the MGCL, our bylaws provide that we will not be subject to the control share provisions of the MGCL and our board of directors has, by resolution, exempted us from the business combination between us and any other person. However, we cannot assure you that our board of directors will not revise the bylaws or such resolution in order to be subject to such business combination and control share provisions in the future. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an alteration or repeal of the board resolution exempting such business combinations will not have any effect on any business combinations that have been consummated or upon any agreements existing at the time of such modification or repeal.
Certain provisions of the MGCL permit the board of directors of a Maryland corporation with at least three independent directors and a class of stock registered under the Exchange Act without stockholder approval and regardless of what is currently provided in its charter or bylaws, to implement certain corporate governance provisions, some of which (for example, a classified board) are not currently applicable to us. These provisions may have the effect of limiting or precluding a third party from making an unsolicited acquisition proposal for our company or of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control under circumstances that otherwise could provide the holders of shares of our stock with the opportunity to realize a premium over the then current market price. Our charter contains a provision whereby it elects to be subject to the provisions of Title 3, Subtitle 8 of the MGCL relating to the filling of vacancies on the board of directors.
Certain provisions in the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership may delay or prevent unsolicited acquisition of us.
Provisions of the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership may delay or make more difficult unsolicited acquisitions of us or changes of our control. These provisions could discourage third parties from making proposals involving an unsolicited acquisition of us or change of our control, although some stockholders or limited partners might consider such proposals, if made, desirable. These provisions include, among others:
redemption rights of qualifying parties;
a requirement that we may not be removed as the general partner of our Operating Partnership without our consent;
transfer restrictions on common units;
our ability, as general partner, in some cases, to amend the partnership agreement and to cause our Operating Partnership to issue additional partnership interests with terms that could delay, defer or prevent a merger or other change of control of us or our Operating Partnership without the consent of our stockholders or the limited partners; and
the right of the limited partners to consent to certain transfers of our general partnership interest (whether by sale, disposition, statutory merger or consolidation, liquidation or otherwise).

22



Our charter and bylaws, the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership and Maryland law also contain other provisions that may delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stock or that our stockholders otherwise believe to be in their best interest.
Tax Matters Agreements limit our ability to sell or otherwise dispose of certain properties, even though a sale or disposition may otherwise be in our stockholders’ best interest.
In connection with certain tax-deferred property contribution transactions in exchange for partnership interests in our Operating Partnership and also in connection with our formation transactions, we entered into Tax Matters Agreements with certain limited partners of our Operating Partnership, including Messrs. Ziman, Schwimmer and Frankel in connection with the IPO, that provide that if we dispose of any interest with respect to certain properties in our portfolio in a taxable transaction during a certain period after the applicable transaction (in the case of the IPO, the period from the completion of the IPO (July 24, 2013) through the seventh anniversary of such completion (July 24, 2020)), our Operating Partnership will indemnify such limited partners for their tax liabilities attributable to their share of the built-in gain that exists with respect to such property interest as of the time of the applicable transaction and tax liabilities incurred as a result of the indemnification payment; provided that, subject to certain exceptions and limitations, such indemnification rights will terminate for any such protected partner that sells, exchanges or otherwise disposes of more than 50% of his or her common units or other applicable units. We have no present intention to sell or otherwise dispose of these properties or interest therein in taxable transactions during the restriction period. If we were to trigger the tax protection provisions under any such agreement, our Operating Partnership would be required to pay damages in the amount of the taxes owed by these limited partners (plus additional damages in the amount of the taxes incurred as a result of such payment). As a result, although it may otherwise be in our stockholders’ best interest that we sell one of these properties, it may be economically prohibitive for us to do so because of these obligations.
Tax Matters Agreements may require our Operating Partnership to maintain certain debt levels that otherwise would not be required to operate our business.
Certain Tax Matters Agreements provides that, during a certain period after the applicable transaction (in the case of the IPO, the period beginning from the date of the completion of our IPO (July 24, 2013) through the period ending on the twelfth anniversary of our IPO (July 24, 2025)), our Operating Partnership will offer certain limited partners the opportunity to guarantee its debt, and following such period, our Operating Partnership will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such limited partners who continue to own at least 50% of the common units or other applicable units they originally received in the applicable transactions with debt guarantee opportunities. Our Operating Partnership will be required to indemnify such limited partners for their tax liabilities resulting from our failure to make such opportunities available to them (plus an additional amount equal to the taxes incurred as a result of such indemnity payment). Among other things, this opportunity to guarantee debt is intended to allow the participating limited partners to defer the recognition of gain in connection with the applicable transactions. These obligations may require us to maintain more or different indebtedness than we would otherwise require for our business.
Our board of directors may change our investment and financing policies without stockholder approval and we may become more highly leveraged, which may increase our risk of default under our debt obligations.
Our investment and financing policies are exclusively determined by our board of directors. Accordingly, our stockholders do not control these policies. Further, our charter and bylaws do not limit the amount or percentage of indebtedness, funded or otherwise, that we may incur. Our board of directors may alter or eliminate our current policy on borrowing at any time without stockholder approval. If this policy changed, we could become more highly leveraged which could result in an increase in our debt service. Higher leverage also increases the risk of default on our obligations. In addition, a change in our investment policies, including the manner in which we allocate our resources across our portfolio or the types of assets in which we seek to invest, may increase our exposure to interest rate risk, real estate market fluctuations and liquidity risk.
Our rights and the rights of our stockholders to take action against our directors and officers are limited.
As permitted by Maryland law, our charter eliminates the liability of our directors and officers to us and our stockholders for money damages, except for liability resulting from:     
actual receipt of an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services; or
active and deliberate dishonesty by the director or officer that was established by a final judgment and was material to the cause of action adjudicated.
In addition, our charter authorizes us to obligate our company, and our bylaws require us, to indemnify our directors and officers for actions taken by them in those and certain other capacities to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law in effect

23



from time to time. Generally, Maryland law permits a Maryland corporation to indemnify its present and former directors and officers except in instances where the person seeking indemnification acted in bad faith or with active and deliberate dishonesty, actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services or, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her actions were unlawful. Under Maryland law, a Maryland corporation also may not indemnify a director or officer in a suit by or on behalf of the corporation in which the director or officer was adjudged liable to the corporation or for a judgment of liability on the basis that a personal benefit was improperly received. A court may order indemnification if it determines that the director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, even though the director or officer did not meet the prescribed standard of conduct; however, indemnification for an adverse judgment in a suit by us or on our behalf, or for a judgment of liability on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received, is limited to expenses. As a result, we and our stockholders may have more limited rights against our directors and officers than might otherwise exist. Accordingly, in the event that actions taken in good faith by any of our directors or officers impede the performance of our company, our stockholders’ ability to recover damages from such director or officer will be limited.
We are a holding company with no direct operations and, as such, we will rely on funds received from our Operating Partnership to pay liabilities, and the interests of our stockholders will be structurally subordinated to all liabilities and obligations of our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.
We are a holding company and conduct substantially all of our operations through our Operating Partnership. We do not have, apart from an interest in our Operating Partnership, any independent operations. As a result, we rely on distributions from our Operating Partnership to continue to pay any dividends we might declare on shares of our common stock. We also rely on distributions from our Operating Partnership to meet any of our obligations, including any tax liability on taxable income allocated to us from our Operating Partnership. In addition, because we are a holding company, stockholder claims will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities and obligations (whether or not for borrowed money) of our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. Therefore, in the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization, our assets and those of our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries will be available to satisfy the claims of our stockholders only after all of our and our Operating Partnership’s and its subsidiaries’ liabilities and obligations have been paid in full.
Our Operating Partnership may issue additional common units to third parties without the consent of our stockholders, which would reduce our ownership percentage in our Operating Partnership and would have a dilutive effect on the amount of distributions made to us by our Operating Partnership and, therefore, the amount of distributions we can make to our stockholders.
As of December 31, 2019, we own 97.7% of the outstanding common units in our Operating Partnership and we may, in connection with future acquisitions of properties or otherwise, cause our Operating Partnership to issue additional common units to third parties. In addition, in connection with our issuances of preferred stock, our Operating Partnership has issued to us preferred units and may issue additional preferred units to us in the future. In addition, the Operating Partnership has issued and in the future may issue additional common units and/or preferred units to third parties in connection with acquisitions or otherwise. Existing preferred units have and any future preferred units may have preferences, powers and rights, voting or otherwise, that are senior to, or otherwise conflict with the common units and are structurally senior to our common stock. Such issuances would reduce our ownership percentage in our Operating Partnership and affect the amount of distributions made to us by our Operating Partnership and, therefore, the amount of distributions we can make to our stockholders.
Risks Related to Our Status as a REIT
Failure to maintain our qualification as a REIT would have significant adverse consequences to us and the per share trading price of our common stock.
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2013. We intend to continue to meet the requirements for taxation as a REIT.  We have not requested and do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) that we qualify as a REIT, and the statements in this Form 10-K are not binding on the IRS or any court. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that we will qualify as a REIT, or that we will remain qualified as such in the future. If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will face serious tax consequences that would substantially reduce the funds available for distribution to you for each of the years involved because:
we would not be allowed a deduction for distributions to stockholders in computing our taxable income and would be subject to regular federal corporate income tax;
we also could be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for tax years prior to 2018 and possibly increased state and local taxes; and

24



unless we are entitled to relief under applicable statutory provisions, we could not elect to be taxed as a REIT for four taxable years following the year during which we were disqualified.
Any such corporate tax liability could be substantial and would reduce our cash available for, among other things, our operations and distributions to stockholders. In addition, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will not be required to make distributions to our stockholders. As a result of all these factors, our failure to qualify as a REIT also could impair our ability to expand our business and raise capital.  
Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex Code provisions for which there are only limited judicial and administrative interpretations. The complexity of these provisions and of the applicable Treasury regulations that have been promulgated under the Code, or the Treasury Regulations, is greater in the case of a REIT that, like us, holds its assets through a partnership. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect our ability to qualify as a REIT. In order to qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy a number of requirements, including requirements regarding the ownership of our stock, requirements regarding the composition of our assets and requirements regarding the sources of our gross income. Also, we must make distributions to stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains. In addition, legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions may materially adversely affect our investors, our ability to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes or the desirability of an investment in a REIT relative to other investments.
Even if we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we may be subject to some federal, state and local income, property and excise taxes on our income or property and, in certain cases, a 100% penalty tax, in the event we sell property as a dealer. In addition, our taxable REIT subsidiary will be subject to tax as a regular corporation in the jurisdictions it operates.
If our Operating Partnership failed to qualify as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, we would cease to qualify as a REIT and suffer other adverse consequences.
We believe that our Operating Partnership will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As a partnership, our Operating Partnership will not be subject to federal income tax on its income. Instead, each of its partners, including us, will be allocated, and may be required to pay tax with respect to, its share of our Operating Partnership’s income. We cannot assure you, however, that the IRS will not challenge the status of our Operating Partnership or any other subsidiary partnership in which we own an interest as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, or that a court would not sustain such a challenge. If the IRS were successful in treating our Operating Partnership or any such other subsidiary partnership as an entity taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes, we would fail to meet the gross income tests and certain of the asset tests applicable to REITs and, accordingly, we would likely cease to qualify as a REIT. Also, the failure of our Operating Partnership or any subsidiary partnerships to qualify as a partnership could cause it to become subject to federal and state corporate income tax, which would reduce significantly the amount of cash available for debt service and for distribution to its partners, including us.
Our taxable REIT subsidiaries will be subject to federal income tax, and we will be required to pay a 100% penalty tax on certain income or deductions if our transactions with our taxable REIT subsidiaries are not conducted on arm’s length terms.
We own an interest in one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries, and may acquire securities in additional taxable REIT subsidiaries in the future. A taxable REIT subsidiary is a corporation other than a REIT in which a REIT directly or indirectly holds stock, and that has made a joint election with such REIT to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary. If a taxable REIT subsidiary owns more than 35% of the total voting power or value of the outstanding securities of another corporation, such other corporation will also be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary. Other than some activities relating to lodging and health care facilities, a taxable REIT subsidiary may generally engage in any business, including the provision of customary or non-customary services to tenants of its parent REIT. A taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to federal income tax as a regular C corporation. In addition, a 100% excise tax will be imposed on certain transactions between a taxable REIT subsidiary and its parent REIT that are not conducted on an arm’s length basis.
Not more than 20% of the value of our total assets may be represented by securities of taxable REIT subsidiaries. We anticipate that the aggregate value of the stock and other securities of any taxable REIT subsidiaries that we own will be less than 20% of the value of our total assets, and we will monitor the value of these investments to ensure compliance with applicable asset test limitations.
To maintain our REIT qualification, we may be forced to borrow funds during unfavorable market conditions.
To qualify as a REIT, we generally must distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income each year, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains, and we will be subject to regular

25



corporate income taxes to the extent that we distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid) each year. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which distributions paid by us in any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of our ordinary income, 95% of our capital gain net income and 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. Accordingly, we may not be able to retain sufficient cash flow from operations to meet our debt service requirements and repay our debt. Therefore, we may need to raise additional capital for these purposes, and we cannot assure you that a sufficient amount of capital will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all, when needed. Further, in order to maintain our REIT qualification and avoid the payment of income and excise taxes, we may need to borrow funds to meet the REIT distribution requirements even if the then prevailing market conditions are not favorable for these borrowings. These borrowing needs could result from, among other things, differences in timing between the actual receipt of cash and inclusion of income for federal income tax purposes, or the effect of non-deductible capital expenditures, the creation of reserves or required debt or amortization payments. These sources, however, may not be available on favorable terms or at all. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends on a number of factors, including the market’s perception of our growth potential, our current debt levels, the per share trading price of our common stock, and our current and potential future earnings. We cannot assure you that we will have access to such capital on favorable terms at the desired times, or at all, which may cause us to curtail our investment activities and/or to dispose of assets at inopportune times.
Dividends payable by REITs do not qualify for the reduced tax rates available for some dividends.
The maximum tax rate applicable to “qualified dividend income” payable to U.S. stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates is 20%. Dividends payable by REITs, however, generally are not eligible for these reduced rates. Under the 2017 Tax Reform Act, however, U.S. stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates generally may deduct up to 20% of the ordinary dividends (e.g., dividends not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend income) received from a REIT for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026. Although this deduction reduces the effective tax rate applicable to certain dividends paid by REITs (generally to 29.6% assuming the shareholder is subject to the 37% maximum rate), such tax rate is still higher than the tax rate applicable to corporate dividends that constitute qualified dividend income. Accordingly, investors who are individuals, trusts and estates may perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the stocks of non-REIT corporations that pay dividends, which could adversely affect the value of the shares of REITs.  
The tax imposed on REITs engaging in “prohibited transactions” may limit our ability to engage in transactions which would be treated as sales for federal income tax purposes.
A REIT’s net income from prohibited transactions is subject to a 100% penalty tax. In general, prohibited transactions are sales or other dispositions of property, other than foreclosure property, held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. Although we do not intend to hold any properties that would be characterized as held for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our business, unless a sale or disposition qualifies under certain statutory safe harbors, such characterization is a factual determination and no guarantee can be given that the IRS would agree with our characterization of our properties or that we will always be able to make use of the available safe harbors.
Complying with REIT requirements may affect our profitability and may force us to liquidate or forgo otherwise attractive investments.
To qualify as a REIT, we must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things, the nature and diversification of our assets, the sources of our income and the amounts we distribute to our stockholders. We may be required to liquidate or forgo otherwise attractive investments in order to satisfy the asset and income tests or to qualify under certain statutory relief provisions. We also may be required to make distributions to stockholders at disadvantageous times or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution. As a result, having to comply with the distribution requirement could cause us to: (1) sell assets in adverse market conditions; (2) borrow on unfavorable terms; or (3) distribute amounts that would otherwise be invested in future acquisitions, capital expenditures or repayment of debt. Accordingly, satisfying the REIT requirements could have an adverse effect on our business results, profitability and ability to execute our business plan. Moreover, if we are compelled to liquidate our investments to meet any of these asset, income or distribution tests, or to repay obligations to our lenders, we may be unable to comply with one or more of the requirements applicable to REITs or may be subject to a 100% tax on any resulting gain if such sales constitute prohibited transactions.
Legislative or other actions affecting REITs could have a negative effect on us.
The rules dealing with federal income taxation are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the IRS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Changes to the tax laws, with or without retroactive application, could

26



adversely affect our investors or us. We cannot predict how changes in the tax laws might affect our investors or us. New legislation, Treasury Regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions could significantly and negatively affect our ability to qualify as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification, or the federal income tax consequences of an investment in us. Also, the law relating to the tax treatment of other entities, or an investment in other entities, could change, making an investment in such other entities more attractive relative to an investment in a REIT.
The 2017 Tax Reform Act has significantly changed the U.S. federal income taxation of U.S. businesses and their owners, including REITs and their stockholders.
The legislation remains unclear in many respects and could be subject to potential amendments and technical corrections, as well as interpretations and implementing regulations by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and IRS, any of which could lessen or increase the impact of the legislation. In addition, it remains unclear how these U.S. federal income tax changes will affect state and local taxation, which often uses federal taxable income as a starting point for computing state and local tax liabilities.
While some of the changes made by the 2017 Tax Reform Act may adversely affect the Company in one or more reporting periods and prospectively, other changes may be beneficial on a going forward basis. The Company continues to work with its tax advisors and auditors to determine the full impact that the 2017 Tax Reform Act as a whole will have on the Company.

Tenants
Our portfolio of properties has a stable and diversified tenant base. As of December 31, 2019, our consolidated properties were 96.3% leased to tenants in a variety of industries, with no single tenant accounting for more than 2.9% of our total annualized in-place base rent. Our average lease size is approximately 18,000 square feet, and approximately 44% of our total leased square feet consists of leases that are less than 50,000 square feet each. Our 10 largest tenants combined account for 11.8% of our annualized base rent as of December 31, 2019. We intend to continue to maintain a diversified mix of tenants in order to limit our exposure to any single tenant or industry.

Leases
Overview
Triple net lease. In our triple net leases, the tenant is responsible for all aspects of and costs related to the property and its operation during the lease term. The landlord may have responsibility under the lease to perform or pay for certain capital repairs or replacements to the roof, structure or certain building systems, such as heating and air conditioning and fire suppression. The tenant may have the right to terminate the lease or abate rent due to a major casualty or condemnation affecting a significant portion of the property or due to the landlord’s failure to perform its obligations under the lease. As of December 31, 2019, there were 318 triple net leases in our consolidated portfolio, representing approximately 61.6% of our total annualized base rent.

41



Modified gross lease. In our modified gross leases, the landlord is responsible for some property-related expenses during the lease term, but a significant amount of the expenses is passed through to the tenant for reimbursement to the landlord. The tenant may have the right to terminate the lease or abate rent due to a major casualty or condemnation affecting a significant portion of the property or due to the landlord’s failure to perform its obligations under the lease. As of December 31, 2019, there were 866 modified gross leases in our consolidated portfolio, representing approximately 30.3% of our total annualized base rent.

See Part II, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Supplemental Measure: Funds From Operations,” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a reconciliation to net income and a discussion of why we believe FFO is a useful supplemental measure of operating performance, ways in which investors might use FFO when assessing our financial performance, and FFO’s limitations as a measurement tool.


Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the sections of this Annual Report on Form 10-K entitled “Risk Factors,” “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Business” and our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Company Overview
Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. is a self-administered and self-managed full-service REIT focused on owning and operating industrial properties in Southern California infill markets. We were formed as a Maryland corporation on January 18,

48



2013 and Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), of which we are the sole general partner, was formed as a Maryland limited partnership on January 18, 2013.  Through our controlling interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, we own, manage, lease, acquire and develop industrial real estate primarily located in Southern California infill markets, and from time to time, acquire or provide mortgage debt secured by industrial property.  We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a REIT under the Code, and generally are not subject to federal taxes on our income to the extent we distribute our income to our shareholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT.
As of December 31, 2019, our consolidated portfolio consisted of 213 properties with approximately 26.6 million rentable square feet. In addition, we currently manage an additional 19 properties with approximately 1.0 million rentable square feet.  
Our goal is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders by providing superior access to industrial property investments and mortgage debt secured by industrial property in high barrier Southern California infill markets. Our target markets provide us with opportunities to acquire both stabilized properties generating favorable cash flow, as well as properties or land parcels where we can enhance returns through value-add renovations and redevelopment or the development of new industrial buildings. Scarcity of available space and high barriers limiting new construction of for-lease product all contribute to create superior long-term supply/demand fundamentals within our target infill Southern California industrial property markets. With our vertically integrated operating platform and extensive value-add investment and management capabilities, we believe we are positioned to capitalize upon the opportunities in our markets to achieve our objectives.

Highlights
Acquisitions
During 2019, we acquired 40 properties, with a combined 5.4 million rentable square feet, for an aggregate cost of $970.7 million.
Repositioning
During 2019 we completed the lease-up and stabilized five of our repositioning properties located at 1998 Surveyor Avenue, 14748-14750 Nelson Avenue, 15401 Figueroa Street, 1332-1340 Rocky Point and 1580 Carson Street with a combined 0.4 million square feet, as well as 109,129 rentable square feet of space at 3233 Mission Oaks Boulevard.
As of December 31, 2019, we have leased 42,504 rentable square feet at 2455 Conejo Spectrum Street, 51,925 rentable square feet at 16121 Carmenita Road and our 72,250 rentable square foot building located at 635 8th Street, of which 47,048 rentable square feet is pre-leased with lease commencement expected to occur in March 2020.
Dispositions
During 2019, we sold three properties and one industrial condominium unit with a combined 0.2 million rentable square feet, for a total gross sales price of $33.6 million, and total net cash proceeds of $32.3 million.
Equity
During 2019, we sold 16,817,930 shares of common stock under our various at-the-market equity offering programs, for gross proceeds of $649.3 million, or approximately $38.61 per share, and net proceeds of $639.6 million after deducting the sales agents’ fee.
In April 2019, in connection with the acquisition of the property located at 1515 East 15th Street, we issued to the seller 593,960 newly issued 4.43937% Cumulative Redeemable Convertible Preferred Units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“Series 1 CPOP Units”) valued at $27.4 million.
In September 2019, we completed a public offering of 3,450,000 shares of our 5.625% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock at a price of $25.00 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $83.2 million after deducting the underwriters’ discount and offering costs.
Financing
In July 2019, we completed a private placement of $100.0 million of senior notes comprised of $25.0 million of 10-year senior notes at a fixed rate of 3.88% and $75.0 million of 15-year senior notes at a fixed rate of 4.03%.
In February 2020, we amended our senior unsecured credit facility to, among other changes, increase the aggregate commitment for our unsecured revolving credit facility to $500 million from $350 million and to extend the maturity date of the unsecured revolving credit facility to February 2024 from February 2021.

Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations
 
Market Fundamentals
Our operating results depend upon the infill Southern California industrial real estate market.
The infill Southern California industrial real estate sector has continued to exhibit strong fundamentals. These high-barrier infill markets are characterized by a relative scarcity of available product, generally operating at near full occupancy, coupled with limited ability to introduce new supply due to high land and development costs and a dearth of developable land in markets experiencing a net reduction in supply as more industrial property is converted to non-industrial uses than can be delivered. Consequently, available industrial supply continues to decrease in many of our target infill submarkets, landlord concessions are at cyclically low levels and construction deliveries are falling short of demand. Meanwhile, underlying tenant demand within our infill target markets continues to demonstrate growth, illustrated or driven by strong re-leasing spreads, strong renewal activity, an expanding regional economy, substantial growth in e-commerce transaction and delivery volumes, as well as further compression of delivery time-frames to consumers and to businesses, increasing the significance of last-mile facilities for timely fulfillment. Despite potential concerns related to global growth, tax reform and changes to trade and tariff policies, we continue to observe a number of positive trends within our target infill markets. Based on current observations within the infill Southern California industrial property market and within our property portfolio, we expect these positive trends may continue into the upcoming year.
In Los Angeles County, positive market trends continued through 2019, as high tenant demand kept vacancy at historically low levels and average asking lease rates increased significantly during 2019. Current market conditions indicate rents are likely to continue their upward trend with potential increases through 2020, as occupancy still remains at near capacity levels and new development is limited by a lack of land availability and an increase in land and development costs.
In Orange County, market fundamentals remained favorable throughout 2019. With steady tenant demand and a continued low availability of industrial product in this region, average asking lease rates continued their upward trend during 2019 and vacancy remained at historically low levels. Current regional market conditions indicate the potential for continued rental growth through 2020.
In San Diego, although there was an increase in vacancy year-over-year, net absorption was positive during 2019 and average asking lease rates increased year-over-year.
In Ventura County, there was a slight increase in vacancy year-over-year and a slight increase in asking lease rates year-over year.
Lastly, in the Inland Empire, new industrial product continues to be absorbed well in the market.  In the Inland Empire West, which contains infill markets in which we operate, vacancy remained at historically low levels and asking lease rates increased year-over-year. We expect the outlook for the Inland Empire West to remain positive over the upcoming year. We generally do not focus on properties located within the non-infill Inland Empire East sub-market where available land and the development and construction pipeline for new supply is substantial.
Acquisitions and Value-Add Repositioning and Development of Properties
The Company’s growth strategy comprises acquiring leased, stabilized properties as well as properties with value-add opportunities to improve functionality and to deploy our value-driven asset management programs in order to increase cash flow and value. Additionally, from time to time, we may acquire land parcels or properties with excess land where we may construct new buildings. Acquisitions may comprise single property investments as well as the purchase of portfolios of properties, with transaction values typically ranging from a $10 million minimum property investment to portfolios potentially valued in the billions of dollars. The Company’s geographic focus remains infill Southern California. However, from time-to-time, portfolios could be acquired comprising a critical mass of infill Southern California industrial property that could include some assets located in markets outside of infill Southern California. In general, to the extent non-infill-Southern California assets were to be acquired as part of a larger portfolio, the Company may underwrite such investments with the potential to dispose such assets over a certain period of time in order to maximize its core focus on infill Southern California, while endeavoring to take appropriate steps to satisfy REIT safe harbor requirements to avoid prohibited transactions under REIT tax laws.
A key component of our growth strategy is to acquire properties through off-market and lightly marketed transactions that are often operating at below-market occupancy or below-market rent at the time of acquisition or that have near-term lease roll-over or that provide opportunities to add value through functional or physical repositioning and improvements.  Through various redevelopment, repositioning, and professional leasing and marketing strategies, we seek to increase the properties’ functionality and attractiveness to prospective tenants and, over time, to stabilize the properties at occupancy rates that meet or exceed market rates. 

50



A repositioning can consist of a range of improvements to a property.  This may include a complete structural renovation of a property whereby we convert large underutilized spaces into a series of smaller and more functional spaces, or it may include the creation of additional square footage, the modernization of the building and property site, the elimination of functional obsolescence, the addition or enhancement of loading areas and truck access, the enhancement of fire-life-safety systems or other accretive improvements.  Because each repositioning effort is unique and determined based on the property, targeted tenants and overall trends in the general market and specific submarket, the timing and effect of the repositioning on our rental revenue and occupancy levels will vary, and, as a result, will affect the comparison of our results of operations from period to period with limited predictability.
As of December 31, 2019, eight of our properties were in various stages of repositioning or development and three of our properties were in the lease-up stage. In addition, we anticipate beginning repositioning/redevelopment work on three additional properties in the near future. The table below sets forth a summary of these properties, as well as the seven projects that were stabilized during 2019 and the four properties that were stabilized during 2018, as the timing of these stabilizations have a direct impact on our current and comparative results of operations. In addition to the properties in the table below, we also have a range of smaller spaces in value-add repositioning or renovation, that due to their smaller size and relatively nominal amount of down-time, are not presented below, however, in the aggregate, may be substantial.

We acquired Conejo Spectrum Business Park, a nine-building property during the first quarter of 2019. Information presented in this table relates to one of the nine buildings, located at 2455 Conejo Spectrum Street.
(8)
9615 Norwalk Boulevard is a 10.26 acre storage-yard with three buildings totaling 38,362 rentable square feet. In January 2019, we converted the tenant’s month to month land lease to a term lease with an expiration date of June 30, 2020. We will demolish the existing buildings and construct a new 201,808 rentable square foot building upon termination of the land lease.
(9)
We expect to demolish the existing 70,510 rentable square foot building and construct a new 128,350 rentable square foot building.
(10)
We consider a repositioning property to be stabilized upon the earlier of (i) reaching 90% occupancy or (ii) one year from the date construction work is completed.
(11)
Repositioning construction work for 2722 Fairview Street was completed in 4Q-2018. Although the renovated space is still vacant, based on our definition of stabilized in footnote (10) above, 2722 Fairview Street is considered stabilized as of 4Q-2019, one year after the completion of repositioning construction work.
Properties that are nonoperational as a result of repositioning or redevelopment activity may qualify for varying levels of interest, insurance and real estate tax capitalization during the development and construction period. An increase in our repositioning and development activities resulting from value-add acquisitions could cause an increase in the asset balances qualifying for interest, insurance and tax capitalization in future periods.  We capitalized $3.9 million of interest expense and $1.3

52



million of insurance and real estate tax expense during the year ended December 31, 2019, related to our repositioning and redevelopment projects.
Rental Revenue
Our operating results depend primarily upon generating rental revenue from the properties in our consolidated portfolio. The amount of rental revenue generated by these properties is affected by our ability to maintain or increase occupancy levels and rental rates at our properties, which will depend upon our ability to lease vacant space and re-lease expiring space at favorable rates.
Occupancy Rates
As of December 31, 2019, our consolidated portfolio, inclusive of space in repositioning as described in the subsequent paragraph, was approximately 96.1% occupied, while our stabilized consolidated portfolio exclusive of such space was approximately 97.9% occupied. We believe the opportunity to increase occupancy at our properties will be an important driver of future revenue growth. An opportunity to drive this growth will derive from the lease-up of recently completed repositioning projects and the completion and lease-up of repositioning and development projects that are currently under construction and planned for near-term construction.
As summarized in the table under “Acquisitions and Value-Add Repositioning and Development of Properties” above, as of December 31, 2019, eight of our properties that will have a combined 1.1 million rentable square feet at completion are in current repositioning or development, and three properties with 0.2 million rentable square feet are in lease-up. Vacant repositioning space and lease-up space at these 11 properties are concentrated in our Los Angeles, Orange County, Ventura and San Diego markets, and represent 1.9% of our total consolidated portfolio square footage as of December 31, 2019. Including vacant repositioning and lease-up space at these 11 properties, our weighted average occupancy rate as of December 31, 2019, in Los Angeles, Orange County, Ventura and San Diego was 96.9%, 96.3%, 94.6% and 91.4%, respectively. Excluding vacant repositioning and lease-up space at these 11 properties, our weighted average occupancy rate as of December 31, 2019, in these markets was 98.8%, 96.9%, 98.9% and 94.8%, respectively. We believe that an important portion of our long-term future growth will come from the completion of these projects currently under or scheduled for repositioning, as well as through the identification or acquisition of new opportunities for redevelopment and repositioning, whether in our existing portfolio or through new investments, which may vary from period to period subject to market conditions.
The occupancy rate of properties not undergoing repositioning is affected by regional and local economic conditions in our Southern California infill markets. Throughout 2019, the Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego county markets continued to show historically low vacancy and positive absorption, resulting from high tenant demand combined with low product availability. Accordingly, our properties in these markets have exhibited a similar trend. We expect general market conditions to remain positive in 2020, and we believe the opportunity to increase occupancy and rental rates at our properties will be an important driver of future revenue growth.

(1)
Effective rent per square foot is the average base rent calculated in accordance with GAAP, over the term of the lease, expressed in dollars per square foot per year. Includes all new and renewal leases that were executed during each respective quarter.
(2)
Calculated as the change between GAAP rents, which straightlines rental rate increases and abatements, for new or renewal leases and the expiring GAAP rents on the expiring leases for the same space.
(3)
Calculated as the change between starting cash rents, excluding any abatements, for new or renewal leases and the expiring cash rents on the expiring leases for the same space.
(4)
The GAAP and cash re-leasing spreads for new leases executed during the year ended December 31, 2019, exclude 56 leases aggregating 1,115,451 rentable square feet for which there was no comparable lease data. Of these 56 excluded leases, 19 leases aggregating 429,087 rentable square feet are leases of recently repositioned space. Comparable leases generally exclude: (i) space that has never been occupied under our ownership, (ii) recently repositioned/redeveloped space, (iii) space that has been vacant for over one year or (iv) space with lease terms shorter than six months.
(5)
The GAAP and cash re-leasing rent spreads for renewal leases executed during the year ended December 31, 2019, exclude five leases aggregating 33,404 rentable square feet for which there was no comparable lease data due to either (i) space with different lease structures or (ii) space with lease terms shorter than six months.
(6)
Includes two leases totaling 132,650 rentable square feet that expired during the year ended December 31, 2019, for which the space was placed into repositioning after each tenant vacated.
(7)
Retention is calculated as renewal lease square footage plus relocation/expansion square footage, divided by the square footage of leases expiring during the period. Retention excludes expiring leases associated with space that is placed into repositioning after the tenant vacates.
Our leasing activity is impacted both by our redevelopment and repositioning efforts, as well as by market conditions. While we reposition a property, its space may become unavailable for leasing until completion of our repositioning efforts. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we stabilized 14748-14750 Nelson Avenue, 1998 Surveyor Avenue, 15401 Figueroa Street, 1332-1340 Rocky Point Drive, 1580 Carson Street and 3233 Mission Oaks Boulevard - Unit 3233 with a combined 524,050 rentable square feet. As of December 31, 2019, we have six current repositioning projects and two development projects with estimated construction completion periods ranging from the first quarter of 2020 to the third quarter of 2021. Additionally, we have three properties in the lease-up stage. We expect these properties to have positive impacts on our leasing activity and revenue generation as we complete our value-add repositioning plans and place these properties in service.
Scheduled Lease Expirations
Our ability to re-lease space subject to expiring leases is affected by economic and competitive conditions in our markets and by the desirability of our individual properties, which may impact our results of operations.

54



As of December 31, 2019, 0.7 million rentable square feet of our portfolio was available for lease, 0.3 million rentable square feet of vacant space was under repositioning and leases representing 0.1 million rentable square feet of our portfolio expired on December 31, 2019. Additionally, leases representing 14.7% and 19.8% of the aggregate rentable square footage of our portfolio are scheduled to expire during the years ending December 31, 2020 and 2021, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we renewed 225 leases for 3.3 million rentable square feet, resulting in a 72.8% retention rate. Our retention rate during the period was impacted by the combination of low vacancy and high demand in many of our key markets. New and renewal leases signed during the current year had a weighted average term of 5.2 and 4.6 years, respectively, and we expect future new and renewal leases to have similar terms.
The leases scheduled to expire during the years ending December 31, 2020 and 2021, represent 14.9% and 19.4%, respectively, of the total annualized base rent for our portfolio as of December 31, 2019. We estimate that, on a weighted average basis, in-place rents of leases scheduled to expire in 2020 and 2021 are currently below current market asking rates, although individual units or properties within any particular submarket may currently be leased either above, below, or at the current market asking rates within that submarket. As described in the above Market Fundamentals section, we expect market dynamics to remain strong heading into 2020 and that these positive trends will provide a favorable environment for additional increases in lease renewal rates. Accordingly, we expect 2020 will show positive renewal rates and leasing spreads. We also currently do not see any reason not to expect that 2021 lease expirations will show positive growth upon renewal; however, it is difficult to predict market conditions that far into the future.
Conditions in Our Markets
The properties in our portfolio are located primarily in Southern California infill markets. Positive or negative changes in economic or other conditions, adverse weather conditions and natural disasters in this market may affect our overall performance.
Property Expenses
Our property expenses generally consist of utilities, real estate taxes, insurance, site repair and maintenance costs, and the allocation of overhead costs. For the majority of our properties, our property expenses are recovered, in part, by either the triple net provisions or modified gross expense reimbursements in tenant leases. The majority of our leases also comprise contractual three percent annual rental rate increases meant, in part, to help mitigate potential increases in property expenses over time. However, the terms of our leases vary and, in some instances, we may absorb property expenses. Our overall financial results will be impacted by the extent to which we are able to pass-through property expenses to our tenants.
Taxable REIT Subsidiary
As of December 31, 2019, our Operating Partnership indirectly and wholly owns Rexford Industrial Realty and Management, Inc., which we refer to as the services company.  We have elected, together with our services company, to treat our services company as a taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes. A taxable REIT subsidiary generally may provide non-customary and other services to our tenants and engage in activities that we may not engage in directly without adversely affecting our qualification as a REIT, provided a taxable REIT subsidiary may not operate or manage a lodging facility or health care facility or provide rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated. We may form additional taxable REIT subsidiaries in the future, and our Operating Partnership may contribute some or all of its interests in certain wholly owned subsidiaries or their assets to our services company. Any income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiaries will not be included in our taxable income for purposes of the 75% or 95% gross income tests, except to the extent such income is distributed to us as a dividend, in which case such dividend income will qualify under the 95%, but not the 75%, gross income test. Because a taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to federal income tax, and state and local income tax (where applicable) as a regular corporation, the income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiaries generally will be subject to an additional level of tax as compared to the income earned by our other subsidiaries. Our taxable REIT subsidiary is a C-corporation subject to federal and state income tax. However it has a cumulative unrecognized net operation loss carryforward and therefore there is no income tax provision for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses for the reporting periods. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates and assumptions. We have summarized below those accounting policies that require material subjective or complex judgments and that have the most significant impact on financial condition and results of operations. Management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis, based upon information currently available and on various assumptions that it believes are reasonable as of the date hereof. In addition, other companies in similar businesses may use different estimation policies and methodologies, which may impact the comparability of our results of operations and financial condition to those of other companies.
A critical accounting policy is one that is both important to the portrayal of an entity’s financial condition and results of operations and requires judgment on the part of management. Generally, the judgment requires management to make estimates and assumptions about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates are prepared using management’s best judgment, after considering past and current economic conditions and expectations for the future. Changes in estimates could affect our financial position and specific items in our results of operations that are used by the users of our financial statements in their evaluation of our performance.
The following critical accounting policies discussion reflects what we believe are the most significant estimates, assumptions, and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. For further discussion of our significant accounting policies and discussion of new accounting pronouncements, see Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements under Item 15 of this report on Form 10-K.
Investment in Real Estate
Acquisitions
We account for acquisitions of properties under Accounting Standards Update 2017-01, Business Combinations - Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides a framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses and further revises the definition of a business.
We evaluated the acquisitions that we completed during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, and determined that under this framework these transactions should be accounted for as asset acquisitions. Our acquisitions of properties generally no longer meet the revised definition of a business and accordingly are accounted for as asset acquisitions.
For asset acquisitions, we allocate the cost of the acquisition, which includes the purchase price and associated acquisition transaction costs, to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis. These individual assets and liabilities typically include land, building and improvements, tenant improvements, intangible assets and liabilities related to above- and below-market leases, intangible assets related to in-place leases, and from time to time, assumed debt. As there is no measurement period concept for an asset acquisition, the allocated cost of the acquired assets is finalized in the period in which the acquisition occurs.
We determine the fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property by valuing the property as if it were vacant.  This “as-if vacant” value is estimated using an income, or discounted cash flow, approach that relies upon Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use.  These Level 3 inputs include discount rates, capitalization rates, market rents and comparable sales data for similar properties.  Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions.  In calculating the “as-if-vacant” value for acquisitions completed during the year ended December 31, 2019, we used discount rates ranging from 5.75% and 7.75% and capitalization rates ranging from 4.50% to 7.25%.
In determining the fair value of intangible lease assets or liabilities, we also consider Level 3 inputs.  Acquired above- and below-market leases are valued based on the present value of the difference between prevailing market rates and the in-place rates measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases, if applicable.  The estimated fair value of acquired in-place at-market tenant leases are the costs that would have been incurred to lease the property to the occupancy level of the property at the date of acquisition. Such estimates include the value associated with leasing commissions, legal and other costs, as well as the estimated period necessary to lease such property to its occupancy level at the time of its acquisition. In determining the fair value of acquisitions completed during the year ended December 31, 2019, we used an estimated average lease-up period ranging from six to twelve months.

56



The difference between the fair value and the face value of debt assumed in connection with an acquisition is recorded as a premium or discount and amortized to “interest expense” over the life of the debt assumed. The valuation of assumed liabilities is based on our estimate of the current market rates for similar liabilities in effect at the acquisition date.
Capitalization of Costs
We capitalize direct costs incurred in developing, renovating, rehabilitating and improving real estate assets as part of the investment basis. This includes certain general and administrative costs, including payroll, bonus, and non-cash equity compensation of the personnel performing development, renovations and rehabilitation if such costs are identifiable to a specific activity to get the real estate asset ready for its intended use. During the development and construction periods of a project, we also capitalize interest, real estate taxes and insurance costs. We cease capitalization of costs upon substantial completion of the project, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity. If some portions of a project are substantially complete and ready for use and other portions have not yet reached that stage, we cease capitalizing costs on the completed portion of the project but continue to capitalize for the incomplete portion of the project. Costs incurred in making repairs and maintaining real estate assets are expensed as incurred.
We capitalized interest costs of $3.9 million, $2.1 million and $1.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We capitalized real estate taxes and insurance aggregating $1.3 million, $0.9 million and $1.2 million during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We capitalized compensation costs for employees who provide construction services of $2.7 million, $2.2 million and $1.9 million during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with the provisions of the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of ASC Topic 360: Property, Plant, and Equipment, we assess the carrying values of our respective long-lived assets, including goodwill, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be fully recoverable.
Recoverability of real estate assets is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows. To review real estate assets for recoverability, we consider current market conditions as well as our intent with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. The intent with regard to the underlying assets might change as market conditions and other factors change. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, applying a capitalization rate to estimated net operating income of a property, quoted market values and third party appraisals, where considered necessary. The use of projected future cash flows is based on assumptions that are consistent with estimates of future expectations and the strategic plan used to manage our underlying business. If our analysis indicates that the carrying value of the real estate asset is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, we will recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the current estimated fair value of the real estate property.
Assumptions and estimates used in the recoverability analyses for future cash flows, discount rates and capitalization rates are complex and subjective. Changes in economic and operating conditions or our intent with respect to our investment that occur subsequent to our impairment analyses could impact these assumptions and result in future impairment of our real estate properties.
Revenue Recognition
Our primary sources of revenue are rental income, management, leasing and development services and gains on sale of real estate.
Rental Income
Minimum annual lease payments are recognized in rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease, regardless of when payments are contractually due. Rental revenue recognition commences when the tenant takes possession or controls the physical use of the leased space. Lease termination fees, which are included in rental income, are recognized when the related leases are canceled and we have no continuing obligation to provide services to such former tenants.
Our lease agreements with tenants generally contain provisions that require tenants to reimburse us for certain property expenses. Estimated reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses are recognized as revenues in the period that the expenses are incurred. Subsequent to year-end, we perform final reconciliations on a lease-by-lease basis and bill or credit each tenant for any cumulative annual adjustments.
Management, leasing and development services

57



We provide property management services and leasing services to related party and third-party property owners (the “customer”) in exchange for fees and commissions.
Property management services include performing property inspections, monitoring repairs and maintenance, negotiating vendor contracts, maintaining tenant relations and providing financial and accounting oversight. For these services, we earn monthly management fees, which are based on a fixed percentage of each managed property’s monthly tenant cash receipts. We have determined that control over the services is passed to the customer simultaneously as performance occurs. Accordingly, management fee revenue is earned as services are provided to the customer.
Leasing commissions are earned when we provide leasing services to the customer that result in an executed lease with a tenant. We have determined that control over the services is transferred to the customer upon execution of each lease agreement. We earn leasing commissions based on a fixed percentage of rental income generated for each executed lease agreement and there is no variable income component.
Gain or Loss on Sale of Real Estate
We account for dispositions of real estate properties, which are considered nonfinancial assets, in accordance with ASC 610-20: Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets and recognize a gain or loss on sale of real estate upon transferring control of the nonfinancial asset to the purchaser, which is generally satisfied at the time of sale. If we were to conduct a partial sale of real estate by transferring a controlling interest in a nonfinancial asset, while retaining a noncontrolling ownership interest, we would measure any noncontrolling interest received or retained at fair value, and recognize a full gain or loss. If we receive consideration before transferring control of a nonfinancial asset, we recognize a contract liability. If we transfer control of the asset before consideration is received, we recognize a contract asset.
Valuation of Receivables
We may be subject to tenant defaults and bankruptcies that could affect the collection of outstanding receivables related to our operating leases. In order to mitigate these risks, we perform credit reviews and analyses on prospective tenants before significant leases are executed and on existing tenants before properties are acquired. On a quarterly basis, we perform an assessment of the collectability of operating lease receivables on a tenant-by-tenant basis, which includes reviewing the age and nature of our receivables, the payment history and financial condition of the tenant, our assessment of the tenant’s ability to meet its lease obligations and the status of negotiations of any disputes with the tenant. Any changes in the collectability assessment for an operating lease is recognized as an adjustment, which can be a reduction or increase, to rental income in the consolidated statements of operations. As a result of our quarterly collectability assessments, we recognized $0.7 million and $1.2 million, $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 respectively, as a reduction of rental income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Results of Operations
Our consolidated results of operations are often not comparable from period to period due to the effect of property acquisitions and dispositions completed during the comparative reporting periods. Our “Total Portfolio” represents all of the properties owned during the reported periods. To eliminate the effect of changes in our Total Portfolio due to acquisitions and dispositions and to highlight the operating results of our on-going business, we have separately presented the results of our “Same Properties Portfolio.”
Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2019 to the Year Ended December 31, 2018
For the comparison of the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, our Same Properties Portfolio includes all properties in our industrial portfolio that were wholly-owned by us as of January 1, 2018, and still owned by us as of December 31, 2019, which consisted of 144 properties aggregating approximately 18.1 million rentable square feet. Results for our Same Properties Portfolio exclude any properties that were acquired or sold during 2019 and 2018, interest income, interest expense and corporate general and administrative expenses. For the comparison of the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, our Total Portfolio includes the properties in our Same Properties Portfolio, the 70 properties aggregating approximately 8.4 million rentable square feet that were acquired during 2019 and 2018, and the nine properties aggregating approximately 0.5 million rentable square feet that were sold during 2019 and 2018.
As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, our Same Properties Portfolio occupancy was approximately 97.4% and 96.0%, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, our Same Properties Portfolio weighted average occupancy was approximately 96.8% and 95.6%, respectively. These occupancy changes were partially driven by the completion of repositioning and development work and subsequent lease-up of space at the following six properties in our Same Properties Portfolio during the period from January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2019: (i) 14748-14750 Nelson Avenue, (ii) 3233 Mission Oaks Boulevard,

Rental Income
On January 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”) using the modified retrospective approach and elected the “non-separation practical expedient” in ASC 842 that alleviates the requirement to separately present lease and non-lease components of lease contracts if certain criteria are met. As a result, we account for and present all rental income earned pursuant to tenant leases, including tenant reimbursements, as a single component in one line, “Rental income,” in our consolidated statements of operations. Prior to the adoption ASC 842, we presented rental revenue, tenant reimbursements and other income related to leases separately in our consolidated statements of operations. However, to facilitate comparability, we have reclassified 2018 amounts to conform with 2019 presentation. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements under Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K for disclosure related to the adoption of ASC 842.
The following table reports the breakdown of 2019 rental income, as reported prior to the adoption of ASC 842, and compares this breakdown with 2018 amounts for the comparable period (dollars in thousands). We believe that the below presentation of rental income is not, and is not intended to be, a presentation in accordance with GAAP. We are presenting this information because we believe it is frequently used by management, investors, securities analysts and other interested parties to evaluate the Company’s performance.

Our Same Properties Portfolio and Total Portfolio rental income increased by $10.9 million, or 5.7%, and $53.6 million, or 25.5%, respectively, during the year ended months ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended months ended December 31, 2018, for the reasons described below:
(1) Rental Revenue
Our Same Properties Portfolio and Total Portfolio rental revenue increased by $9.7 million, or 6.0%, and $44.9 million, or 25.3%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase in our Same Properties Portfolio rental revenue is primarily due to the increase in the weighted average occupancy of the portfolio for comparable periods, which was partially driven by the lease-up of the six SPP Stabilized Properties, and the increase in average rental rates on new and renewal leases. Our Total Portfolio rental income was also positively impacted by the incremental revenues from the 70 properties we acquired during 2018 and 2019, partially offset by the decrease in revenues from the nine properties that were sold during 2018 and 2019.
(2) Tenant Reimbursements
Our Same Properties Portfolio and Total Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue increased by $0.8 million, or 2.9%, and $8.2 million or 25.5%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018.  The increase in our Same Properties Portfolio tenant reimbursements is primarily due to an increase in the weighted average occupancy for comparable periods, which was partially driven by the lease-up of the six SPP Stabilized Properties, and an increase in reimbursable property expenses. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in tenant reimbursements revenue due to the adoption of ASC 842 and the related change in reporting for real estate taxes that are paid directly by a lessee to a third party, from a gross basis to a net basis, at three of our properties. Our Total Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue was also impacted by the incremental reimbursements from the 70 properties we acquired during 2018 and 2019, partially offset by the decrease in reimbursements from the nine properties that were sold during 2018 and 2019.
 (3) Other Income
Our Same Properties Portfolio and Total Portfolio other income increased by $0.4 million, or 45.9%, and $0.5 million, or 58.8%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to an increase in miscellaneous income.
Management, Leasing and Development Services
Our Total Portfolio management, leasing and development services revenue decreased by $0.1 million, or 14.2%, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018.
Interest Income
Our Total Portfolio interest income increased by $1.2 million, or 85.4%, during the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to an increase in the average cash balance invested in money market accounts.
Property Expenses
Our Same Properties Portfolio and Total Portfolio property expenses increased by $1.8 million, or 3.9%, and $11.6 million, or 22.5%, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase in our Same Properties Portfolio property expenses is primarily due to an increase in real estate tax expense relating to

60



California Proposition 13 annual increases and property reassessments, lower capitalized real estate tax expense due to completed repositioning activity, as well as increases in allocated overhead costs and insurance expense. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in real estate tax expense due to the adoption of ASC 842 and the change in reporting for real estate taxes that are paid directly by a lessee to a third party from a gross basis to a net basis at three of our properties.  Our Total Portfolio property expenses were also impacted by incremental expenses from the 70 properties we acquired during 2018 and 2019, partially offset by the decrease in property expenses from the nine properties that were sold during 2018 and 2019.
General and Administrative
Our Total Portfolio general and administrative expenses increased by $5.1 million, or 20.3% for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018.  The increase is primarily due to increases in payroll related expenses due to a higher headcount, non-cash equity compensation expense, accrued bonus expense and other various corporate expenses, partially offset by a decrease in legal expense.
Depreciation and Amortization
Our Same Properties Portfolio depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $0.5 million, or 0.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to acquisition-related tenant improvements and in-place lease intangibles becoming fully depreciated during 2018 and 2019, partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense related to capital improvements placed into service during 2018 and 2019. Our Total Portfolio depreciation and amortization expense increased by $18.8 million, or 23.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to incremental expense from the 70 properties we acquired during 2018 and 2019, and an increase in depreciation expense related to capital improvements, partially offset by the decrease in our Same Properties Portfolio depreciation and amortization expense noted above.
Acquisition Expenses
Our Total Portfolio acquisition expenses decreased by $0.1 million, or 46.2%, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018.
Interest Expense
Our Total Portfolio interest expense increased by $1.5 million, or 5.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase in interest expense is primarily comprised of the following: (i) a $2.3 million increase related to the $150.0 million term loan facility borrowing that we completed in May 2018, (ii) a $1.8 million increase related to the private placement of $100.0 million of senior notes that we completed in July 2019 and (iii) a $0.5 million increase related to the $150 million swap that became effective in July 2019. These increases were partially offset by (i) a $1.8 million increase in capitalized interest related to our repositioning and redevelopment properties and (ii) a $1.1 million decrease in interest related to lower average outstanding borrowings on our unsecured revolving credit facility.
Gain on Sale of Real Estate
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we recognized a total gain on sale of real estate of $16.3 million from the disposition of three properties and one industrial condominium unit that were sold for an aggregate gross sales price of $33.6 million. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we recognized a total gain on sale of real estate of $17.2 million from the disposition of six properties that were sold for an aggregate gross sales price of $48.0 million.
Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2018 to the Year Ended December 31, 2017
Refer to “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Results of Operations” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on February 19, 2019, for a discussion of the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to the year ended December 31, 2017.
Non-GAAP Supplemental Measure: Funds From Operations
We calculate funds from operations (“FFO”) attributable to common stockholders in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”).  FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, impairment

61



losses, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs), and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures.
Management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, and asset impairments, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of performance used by other REITs, FFO may be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs.
However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. Other equity REITs may not calculate or interpret FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition as we do, and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs’ FFO. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity and is not indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Measures: NOI and Cash NOI
Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP measure which includes the revenue and expense directly attributable to our real estate properties. NOI is calculated as rental income less property expenses (before interest expense, depreciation and amortization).

62



We use NOI as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate depreciation and amortization expense, general and administrative expenses, interest expense, gains (or losses) on sale of real estate and other non-operating items, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs.  We also believe that NOI will be useful to investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. However, because NOI excludes depreciation and amortization expense and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties (all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations), the utility of NOI as a measure of our performance is limited. Other equity REITs may not calculate NOI in a similar manner and, accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to such other REITs’ NOI. Accordingly, NOI should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance. NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. NOI should not be used as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities in accordance with GAAP.
NOI on a cash-basis (“Cash NOI”) is a non-GAAP measure, which we calculate by adding or subtracting the following items from NOI: i) fair value lease revenue and ii) straight-line rental revenue adjustments. We use Cash NOI, together with NOI, as a supplemental performance measure. Cash NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. Cash NOI should not be used as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Measure: EBITDAre
We calculate earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization for real estate (“EBITDAre”) in accordance with the standards established by NAREIT. EBITDAre is calculated as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, impairment losses and adjustments to reflect our proportionate share of EBITDAre from our prior unconsolidated joint venture.
We believe that EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of our operating performance as a real estate company because it is a direct measure of the actual operating results of our properties. We also use this measure in ratios to compare our performance to that of our industry peers. In addition, we believe EBITDAre is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of equity REITs. However, our industry peers may not calculate EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition as we do and, accordingly, our EBITDAre may not be comparable to our peers’ EBITDAre. Accordingly, EBITDAre should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) as a measure of our performance.  
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, to EBITDAre (in thousands):

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds to pay for operating expenses, interest expense, general and administrative expenses, capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions, and distributions to our common and preferred stockholders and holders of common units of partnership interests in our Operating Partnership (“OP Units”). We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through available cash on hand, cash flow from operations, by drawing on our unsecured revolving credit facility and by issuing shares of common stock pursuant to the at-the-market equity offering program described below.
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, recurring and non-recurring capital expenditures and scheduled debt maturities.  We intend to satisfy our long-term liquidity needs through net cash flow from operations, proceeds from long-term secured and unsecured financings, borrowings available under our unsecured revolving credit facility, the issuance of equity securities, including preferred stock, and proceeds from selective real estate dispositions as we identify capital recycling opportunities.
As of December 31, 2019, our cash and cash equivalents were $78.9 million, and we did not have any borrowings outstanding under our unsecured revolving credit facility, leaving $350.0 million available for future borrowings.
Sources of Liquidity
Cash Flow from Operations
Cash flow from operations is one of our key sources of liquidity and is primarily dependent upon: (i) the occupancy levels and lease rates at our properties, (ii) our ability to collect rent, (iii) the level of operating costs we incur and (iv) our ability to pass through operating expenses to our tenants. We are subject to a number of risks related to general economic and other unpredictable conditions, which have the potential to affect our overall performance and resulting cash flows from operations. However, based on our current portfolio mix and business strategy, we anticipate that we will be able to generate positive cash flows from operations.
ATM Program
On June 13, 2019, we established a new at-the-market equity offering program (the “$550 Million ATM Program”) pursuant to which we may sell from time to time up to an aggregate of $550.0 million of our common stock through sales agents. The $550 Million ATM Program replaces our previous $450.0 million at-the-market equity offering program which was established on February 19, 2019 (the “Prior ATM Program”). Substantially all $450.0 million of shares of our common stock available under the Prior ATM Program were sold prior to establishing the $550 Million ATM Program.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we sold a total of 16,817,930 shares of our common stock under the $550 Million ATM Program and the Prior ATM Program at a weighted average price of $38.61 per share, for gross proceeds of $649.3 million, and net proceeds of $639.6 million, after deducting the sales agents’ fee. As of December 31, 2019, we had the capacity to issue up to an additional $350.7 million of common stock under the $550 Million ATM Program.
Future sales, if any, will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including among others, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock and capital needs. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering of shares under the $550 Million ATM Program, if any, to fund potential acquisition opportunities, repay amounts outstanding from time to time under our unsecured revolving credit facility or other debt financing obligations, to fund our development or redevelopment activities and/or for general corporate purposes.
Equity Offerings
On September 20, 2019, we completed an underwritten public offering of 3,450,000 shares of our 5.625% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), including 450,000 additional shares of Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to an option to purchase additional shares solely to cover over-allotments, at a price of $25.00 per share. The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $83.2 million after deducting the underwriters’ discount and offering costs totaling $3.0 million. We used the net proceeds from the offering to fund various acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.
We evaluate the capital markets on an ongoing basis for opportunities to raise capital, and as circumstances warrant, we may issue additional securities, from time to time, to fund acquisitions, for the repayment of long-term debt upon maturity and for other general corporate purposes. Any future issuance, however, is dependent upon market conditions, available pricing and capital needs and there can be no assurance that we will be able to complete any such offerings of securities.
Capital Recycling

65



We continuously evaluate opportunities for the potential disposition of properties in our portfolio when we believe such disposition is appropriate in view of our business objectives. In evaluating these opportunities, we consider a variety of criteria including, but not limited to, local market conditions and lease rates, asset type and location, as well as potential uses of proceeds and tax considerations. Tax considerations include entering into tax-deferred like-kind exchanges under Section 1031 of the Code (“1031 Exchange”), when possible, to defer some or all of the taxable gains, if any, on dispositions.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we completed the sale of three properties and one industrial condominium unit for a total gross sales price of $33.6 million and total net cash proceeds of $32.3 million. The net cash proceeds were used to partially fund the acquisition of three properties during the year ended December 31, 2019, through 1031 Exchange transactions.
We anticipate continuing to selectively and opportunistically dispose of properties, however, the timing of any potential future dispositions will depend on market conditions, asset-specific circumstances or opportunities, and our capital needs. Our ability to dispose of selective properties on advantageous terms, or at all, is dependent upon a number of factors including the availability of credit to potential buyers to purchase properties at prices that we consider acceptable.
Amended Credit Agreement
On February 13, 2020, we amended our $450 million credit facility (the “Prior Credit Agreement”) by entering into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), which provides for a $600.0 million senior unsecured credit facility, comprised of a $500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Amended Revolver") and a $100.0 million unsecured term loan facility (the "Amended Term Loan Facility"). The Amended Revolver is scheduled to mature on February 13, 2024, and has two six-month extension options available for a maximum maturity date of February 13, 2025, subject to certain conditions and the payment of an additional fee. The Amended Term Loan Facility is scheduled to mature on February 14, 2022. Subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, we may request additional lender commitments up to an additional aggregate $900.0 million, which may be comprised of additional revolving commitments under the Amended Revolver, an increase to the Amended Term Loan Facility, additional term loan tranches or any combination of the foregoing.
     Interest on the Amended Credit Agreement is generally to be paid based upon, at our option, either (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin that is based upon our leverage ratio or (ii) the Base Rate (which is defined as the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the administrative agent’s prime rate or (c) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin that is based on our leverage ratio. The margins for the Amended Revolver range in amount from 1.05% to 1.50% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.05% to 0.50% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on our leverage ratio. The margins for the Amended Term Loan Facility range in amount from 1.20% to 1.70% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.20% to 0.70% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on our leverage ratio.
     If we attain one additional investment grade rating by one or more of Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) or Moody’s Investor Services (“Moody’s”) to complement our current investment grade Fitch rating, we may elect to convert the pricing structure under the Amended Credit Agreement to be based on such rating. In that event, the margins for the Amended Revolver will range in amount from 0.725% to 1.40% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.45% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on such rating, and the margins for the Amended Term Loan Facility will range in amount from 0.85% to 1.65% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.65% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on such rating.
     In addition to the interest payable on amounts outstanding under the Amended Revolver, we are required to pay an applicable facility fee, based upon our leverage ratio, on the aggregate amount of each lender's Revolving Credit Commitment (whether or not such Revolving Credit Commitment is drawn), as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement. The applicable facility fee will range in amount from 0.15% to 0.30% per annum, depending on our leverage ratio. In the event that we convert the pricing structure to be based on an investment-grade rating, the applicable facility fee will range in amount from 0.125% to 0.30% per annum, depending on such rating.
The Amended Credit Agreement is guaranteed by the Company and by substantially all of the current and to-be-formed subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership that own an unencumbered property. The Amended Credit Agreement is not secured by the Company’s properties or by equity interests in the subsidiaries that hold such properties.
The Amended Revolver and the Amended Term Loan Facility may be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. Amounts borrowed under the Amended Term Loan Facility and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains usual and customary events of default including defaults in the payment of principal, interest or fees, defaults in compliance with the covenants set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement and other loan documentation, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness, and bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Amended Credit Agreement, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans, together

66



with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, may be declared immediately due and payable.
As of the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we did not have any borrowings outstanding under the Amended Revolver, leaving $500.0 million available for future borrowings.
Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement
On July 16, 2019, we entered into a Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement (the “NPGA”) which provides for the private placement of $100.0 million of guaranteed senior notes, of which (i) $25.0 million are designated as 3.88% Series 2019A Guaranteed Senior Notes due July 16, 2029 (the "Series 2019A Notes") and (ii) $75.0 million are designated as 4.03% Series 2019B Guaranteed Senior Notes due July 16, 2034 (the "Series 2019 B Notes" and, together with the Series 2019A Notes, the "Series 2019A and 2019B Notes"). Interest on the Series 2019A and 2019B Notes will be payable semiannually on the sixteenth day of January and July in each year, beginning on January 16, 2020, until maturity. On July 16, 2019, we completed the issuance of the Series 2019A and 2019B Notes. We used the net proceeds from this issuance to fund the acquisition of industrial properties and for general corporate purposes.
Investment Grade Rating
In November 2019, Fitch Ratings affirmed our investment grade credit rating of BBB with a stable outlook on the Prior Credit Agreement, our $225 million unsecured term loan facility (the “$225 Million Term Loan Facility”), our $150 million unsecured term loan facility (the “$150 Million Term Loan Facility”), our $100 million unsecured guaranteed senior notes (the “$100 Million Notes”), our $125 million unsecured guaranteed senior notes (the “$125 Million Notes”) and the Series 2019A and 2019B Notes. They also affirmed our investment grade credit rating of BB+ on our 5.875% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, our 5.875% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock and our Series C Preferred Stock. Our credit ratings are based on our operating performance, liquidity and leverage ratios, overall financial position and other factors employed by the credit rating agencies in their rating analysis of us, and, although it is our intent to maintain our investment grade credit rating, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our current credit ratings. In the event our current credit ratings are downgraded, it may become difficult or more expensive to obtain additional financing or refinance existing indebtedness as maturities become due.
Uses of Liquidity
Acquisitions
One of our most significant liquidity needs has historically been for the acquisition of real estate properties. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we acquired 40 properties with a combined 5.4 million rentable square feet for a total gross purchase price of $970.7 million, and we are actively monitoring a volume of properties in our markets that we believe represent attractive potential investment opportunities to continue to grow our business. As of the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have approximately $268.4 million of acquisitions under contract or letter of intent. There can be no assurance we will complete any such acquisitions. While the actual number of acquisitions that we complete will be dependent upon a number of factors, in the short term, we expect to fund our acquisitions through available cash on hand, cash flows from operations, borrowings available under the Amended Revolver, recycling capital through property dispositions and, in the long term, through the issuance of equity securities or proceeds from long-term secured and unsecured financings.
Recurring and Nonrecurring Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures are considered part of both our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we incurred $6.8 million of recurring capital expenditures, which was an increase of $1.2 million over the prior year. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we incurred $34.1 million of non-recurring capital expenditures, which was a decrease of $11.3 million over the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to the decrease in non-recurring capital expenditures related to redevelopment activity during 2019 compared to 2018. As discussed above under —Factors that May Influence Future Results —Acquisitions and Value-Add Repositioning and Development of Properties, as of December 31, 2019, 11 of our properties were in various stages of redevelopment and repositioning or lease-up, and we anticipate beginning repositioning work on three additional properties during 2020 and 2021. We currently estimate that approximately $110.6 million of capital will be required over the next eight quarters (1Q-2020 through 4Q-2021) to complete the redevelopment and repositioning of these properties. However, this estimate is based on our current construction plan and budgets, both of which are subject to change as a result of a number of factors. If we are unable to complete construction on schedule or within budget, we could incur increased construction costs and experience potential delays in leasing the properties. We expect to fund these projects through a combination of cash flow from operations, the issuance of common stock under the $550 Million ATM Program and borrowings available under the Amended Revolver.

Reflects an estimate of interest payments due on variable rate debt, including the impact of interest rate swaps. For variable rate debt where interest is paid based on LIBOR plus an applicable LIBOR margin, we used the applicable LIBOR margin in effect as of December 31, 2019, and the one-month LIBOR rate of 1.7625%, as of December 31, 2019. Furthermore, it is assumed that any maturity extension options available are not exercised.

See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K for further details regarding leases. As of December 31, 2019, we have additional operating leases for office space that have not yet commenced of $3.4 million which has been included above.
(4)
Includes total commitments for tenant improvement and construction work related to obligations under certain tenant leases and vendor contracts. We anticipate these obligations to be paid as incurred in 2020 and 2021, however, as the timing of these obligations is subject to a number of factors, for purposes of this table, we have included the full amount under “Less than 1 Year (2020).”
Dividends and Distributions   
In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we are required to distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding any net capital gains. To satisfy the requirements to qualify as a REIT and generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, we intend to distribute a percentage of our cash flow on a quarterly basis to holders of our common stock. In addition, we intend to make distribution payments to holders of OP Units and dividend payments to holders of our preferred stock.
On February 10, 2020, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.215 per share of common stock and a quarterly cash distribution of $0.215 per OP Unit, to be paid on April 15, 2020, to holders of record as of March 31, 2020. Also, on February 10, 2020, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.367188 per share of our 5.875% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, a quarterly cash dividend of $0.367188 per share of our 5.875% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, a quarterly cash dividend of $0.351563 per share of our Series C Preferred Stock and a quarterly cash distribution of $0.505085 per Series 1 CPOP Unit to be paid on March 31, 2020, to holders of record as of March 13, 2020.

(3)
One 24-month extension is available at the borrower’s option, subject to certain terms and conditions.
(4)
The Revolver is subject to an applicable facility fee which is calculated as a percentage of the total lenders’ commitment amount, regardless of usage. The applicable facility fee will range from 0.15% to 0.30% depending upon our leverage ratio.
(5)
Two additional six-month extensions are available at the borrower’s option, subject to certain terms and conditions.
(6)
The LIBOR margin will range from 1.10% to 1.50% per annum for the Revolver, 1.20% to 1.70% per annum for our $100 million term loan facility (the “$100 Million Term Loan Facility”), 1.20% to 1.70% per annum for the $225 Million Term Loan Facility and 1.50% to 2.20% per annum for the $150 Million Term Loan Facility, depending on our leverage ratio, which is the ratio of our outstanding consolidated indebtedness to the value of our consolidated gross asset value. This leverage ratio is measured on a quarterly basis, and as a result, the effective interest rate will fluctuate from period to period.
(7)
As of December 31, 2019, the $100 Million Term Loan Facility has been effectively fixed at 1.764% plus an applicable LIBOR margin through the use of an interest rate swap with a notional value of $100.0 million and an effective date of December 14, 2018.

Includes the effect of interest rate swaps that were effective as of December 31, 2019. Excludes the effect of amortization of debt issuance costs, discounts and the facility fee on the Revolver. Assumes a one-month LIBOR rate of 1.7625% as of December 31, 2019, as applicable.
(2)
Excludes unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discounts totaling $3.1 million as of December 31, 2019.
At December 31, 2019, we had total indebtedness of $861.0 million, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discounts, with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.54% and an average term-to-maturity of 5.5 years. As of December 31, 2019, $802.5 million, or 93%, of our outstanding indebtedness had an interest rate that was effectively fixed under either the terms of the loan ($327.5 million) or an interest rate swap ($475.0 million).
At December 31, 2019, we had total indebtedness of $861.0 million, reflecting a net debt to total combined market capitalization of approximately 12.3%. Our total market capitalization is defined as the sum of the liquidation preference of our outstanding preferred stock and preferred units plus the market value of our common stock excluding shares of nonvested restricted stock, plus the aggregate value of common units not owned by us, plus the value of our net debt.  Our net debt is defined as our consolidated indebtedness less cash and cash equivalents. 
Debt Covenants
The Amended Credit Agreement, $225 Million Term Loan Facility, $150 Million Term Loan Facility, $100 Million Notes, $125 Million Notes and Series 2019A and 2019B Notes all include a series of financial and other covenants that we must comply with, including the following covenants which are tested on a quarterly basis:
Maintaining a ratio of total indebtedness to total asset value of not more than 60%;
For the Amended Credit Agreement, $225 Million Term Loan Facility and $150 Million Term Loan Facility, maintaining a ratio of secured debt to total asset value of not more than 45%;
For the $100 Million Notes, $125 Million Notes and Series 2019A and 2019B Notes (together the “Senior Notes”), maintaining a ratio of secured debt to total asset value of not more than 40%;
For the Senior Notes, maintaining a ratio of total secured recourse debt to total asset value of not more than 15%;
For the Senior Notes, maintaining a minimum tangible net worth of at least the sum of (i) $760,740,750, and (ii) an amount equal to at least 75% of the net equity proceeds received by the Company after September 30, 2016;
For the Amended Credit Agreement, $225 Million Term Loan Facility and $150 Million Term Loan Facility, maintaining a minimum tangible net worth of at least the sum of (i) $2,061,865,500, and (ii) an amount equal to at least 75% of the net equity proceeds received by the Company after September 30, 2019;
Maintaining a ratio of adjusted EBITDA (as defined in each of the loan agreements) to fixed charges of at least 1.50 to 1.0;
Maintaining a ratio of total unsecured debt to total unencumbered asset value of not more than 60%;
Maintaining a ratio of unencumbered NOI (as defined in each of the loan agreements) to unsecured interest expense of at least 1.75 to 1.0.
The Amended Credit Agreement, $225 Million Term Loan Facility, $150 Million Term Loan Facility and Senior Notes also contain limitations on our ability to pay distributions on our common stock. Specifically, our cash dividends may not exceed the greater of (1) 95% of our FFO (as defined in the credit agreement) and (2) the amount required for us to qualify and maintain our REIT status. If an event of default exists, we may only make distributions sufficient to qualify and maintain our REIT status.

70



Additionally, subject to the terms of the Senior Notes, upon certain events of default, including, but not limited to, (i) a default in the payment of any principal, make-whole payment amount, or interest under the Senior Notes, (ii) a default in the payment of certain of our other indebtedness, (iii) a default in compliance with the covenants set forth in the Senior Notes agreement and (iv) bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults, the principal and accrued and unpaid interest and the make-whole payment amount on the outstanding Senior Notes will become due and payable at the option of the purchasers. In addition, we are required to maintain at all times a credit rating on the Senior Notes from either S&P, Moody’s or Fitch. As noted above, most recently in November 2019, Fitch affirmed the investment grade rating of the Senior Notes at BBB with a stable outlook.
The $60 Million Term Loan contains the following financial covenants:
Maintaining a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined in the term loan agreement) of at least 1.10 to 1.00, to be tested quarterly;
Maintaining Unencumbered Liquid Assets (as defined in the term loan agreement) of not less than (i) $5 million, or (ii) $8 million if we elect to have Line of Credit Availability (as defined in the term loan agreement) included in the calculation, of which $2 million must be cash or cash equivalents, to be tested annually as of December 31 of each year;
Maintaining a minimum Fair Market Net Worth (as defined in the term loan agreement) of at least $75 million, to be tested annually as of December 31 of each year.
We were in compliance with all of our quarterly and annual debt covenants as of December 31, 2019.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2019, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Net cash provided by operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $36.7 million to $139.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $102.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to incremental cash flows from property acquisitions completed subsequent to January 1, 2018, the increase in Cash NOI from our Same Properties Portfolio, changes in working capital and lower cash interest paid during 2019.
Net cash used in investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities increased by $465.5 million to $972.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $507.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to a $463.7 million increase in cash paid for property acquisitions and acquisition related deposits and a $12.6 million decrease in net proceeds received from the sale of properties, partially offset by a $10.8 million decrease in cash paid for construction and repositioning projects.
Net cash provided by financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $153.3 million to $731.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $578.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to the following: (i) a decrease of $276.0 million in paydowns on the Revolver, (ii) an increase of $100.0 million in cash proceeds from the issuance of the Series 2019A and 2019B Notes in July 2019, (iii) an increase of $83.2 million in net cash proceeds from the issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock and (iv) an increase of $82.4 million in net cash proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock. These increases were partially offset by the following: (i) a decrease of $216.0 million in draws on the Revolver, (ii) a decrease of $150.0 million in borrowings on the $150 Million Term Loan Facility

71



and (iii) an increase of $22.4 million in dividends and distributions paid to common stockholders and common unitholders resulting from the increase in the number of common shares outstanding and the increase in our quarterly per share cash dividend.

Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2018 to the Year Ended December 31, 2017

Refer to “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Cash Flows” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on February 19, 2019, for a discussion of the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to the year ended December 31, 2017.
Inflation
The majority of our leases are either triple net or provide for tenant reimbursement for costs related to real estate taxes and operating expenses. In addition, most of the leases provide for fixed rent increases. We believe that inflationary increases to real estate taxes, utility expenses and other operating expenses may be partially offset by the contractual rent increases and tenant payment of taxes and expenses described above. We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our historical financial position or results of operations.


Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. A key market risk we face is interest rate risk. We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of using variable-rate debt to satisfy various short-term and long-term liquidity needs, which have interest rates based upon LIBOR. We use interest rate swaps to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings. Because actual interest rate movements over time are uncertain, our swaps pose potential interest rate risks, notably if interest rates fall. We also expose ourselves to credit risk, which we attempt to minimize by contracting with highly-rated banking financial counterparties. For a summary of our outstanding variable-rate debt, see Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources. For a summary of our interest rate swaps, see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K.
As of December 31, 2019, the $100 Million Term Loan Facility has been effectively fixed through the use of an interest rate swap. The interest rate swap has a notional value of $100.0 million, an effective date of December 14, 2018, a maturity date of August 14, 2021, and currently fixes the annual interest rate payable on the $100 Million Term Loan Facility at 1.764% plus an applicable LIBOR margin under the terms of the Prior Credit Agreement.
As of December 31, 2019, the $225 Million Term Loan Facility has been effectively fixed through the use of two interest rate swaps. The first interest rate swap has a notional value of $125.0 million, an effective date of February 14, 2018, a maturity date of January 14, 2022, and currently fixes the annual interest rate payable at 1.349% plus an applicable LIBOR margin under the terms of the $225 Million Term Loan Facility. The second interest rate swap has a notional value of $100.0 million, an effective date of August 14, 2018, a maturity date of January 14, 2022, and currently fixes the annual interest rate payable on the $225 Million Term Loan Facility at 1.406% plus an applicable LIBOR margin under the terms of the $225 Million Term Loan Facility.
As of December 31, 2019, the $150 Million Term Loan Facility has been effectively fixed through the use of an interest rate swap. The interest rate swap has a notional value of $150.0 million, an effective date of July 22, 2019, a maturity date of November 22, 2024, and currently fixes the annual interest rate payable on the $150 Million Term Loan Facility at 2.7625% plus an applicable LIBOR margin under the terms of the $150 Million Term Loan Facility.
At December 31, 2019, we had total consolidated indebtedness, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs and discounts, of $861.0 million. Of this total amount, $802.5 million, or 93%, had an interest rate that was effectively fixed under the terms of the loan or an interest rate swap.  The remaining $58.5 million, or 7%, comprises our variable-rate debt. Based upon the amount of variable-rate debt outstanding as of December 31, 2019, if LIBOR were to increase by 50 basis points, the increase in interest expense on our variable-rate debt would decrease our future earnings and cash flows by approximately $0.3 million annually.  If LIBOR were to decrease by 50 basis points, the decrease in interest expense on our variable-rate debt would increase our future earnings and cash flows by approximately $0.3 million annually.
Interest risk amounts are our management’s estimates and were determined by considering the effect of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. We calculate interest sensitivity by multiplying the amount of variable rate debt outstanding by the respective change in rate. The sensitivity analysis does not take into consideration possible changes in the balances or fair value of our floating rate debt or the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in that

72



environment. Further, in the event of a change of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, this analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.

All information required by this item is listed in the Index to Financial Statements in Part IV, Item 15(a)(1).


Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2019, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2019 at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no significant changes that occurred during the fourth quarter of the most recent year covered by this report in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer and effected by our board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company has used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control–Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission to assess our internal control over financial reporting. Based upon this assessment, management concluded that internal control over financial reporting operated effectively as of December 31, 2019.

73



The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019, has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein within Item 15.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated February 19, 2020 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
                                           
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical audit matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates

F- 1



 
 
Recognition of acquired real estate - Purchase price accounting
 
 
 
Description of the Matter
 
As discussed in Notes 2, 3, and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company completed the acquisition of 40 properties for a total purchase price of $970.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2019. The transactions were accounted for as asset acquisitions, and the purchase prices were allocated to components based on the relative fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. These components include land, buildings and improvements, tenant improvements, intangible assets and liabilities related to above and below market leases, and intangible assets related to in-place leases. The fair value of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities is based on available comparable market information, and estimated cash flow projections that utilize rental rates, discount rates, and capitalization rates. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions.

Auditing the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets and liabilities involves significant estimation uncertainty due to the judgment used by management in selecting key assumptions based on recent comparable transactions or market information, and the sensitivity of the fair values to changes in assumptions. The allocation of value to the components of properties acquired could have a material effect on the Company’s net income due to the differing depreciable and amortizable lives of each component and the classification of related depreciation or amortization expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
 
 
 
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
 
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s process for determining and reviewing the key inputs and assumptions used in estimating the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities and allocating fair value to the various components.
To test the allocation of the acquisition-date fair values, we evaluated the appropriateness of the valuation methods used to allocate the purchase price. We performed procedures to assess the key data inputs and assumptions used by management described above, including the completeness and accuracy of the underlying information. We also used our specialists to assist us in evaluating the valuation methods used by management and whether the assumptions utilized were supported by observable market data.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019 and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a), and our report dated February 19, 2020 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REXFORD INDUSTRIAL REALTY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.    Organization
Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. is a self-administered and self-managed full-service real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused on owning and operating industrial properties in Southern California infill markets. We were formed as a Maryland corporation on January 18, 2013 and Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), of which we are the sole general partner, was formed as a Maryland limited partnership on January 18, 2013. Through our controlling interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, we own, manage, lease, acquire and develop industrial real estate located in Southern California infill markets, and from time to time, acquire or provide mortgage debt secured by industrial property. As of December 31, 2019, our consolidated portfolio consisted of 213 properties with approximately 26.6 million rentable square feet. In addition, we currently manage an additional 19 properties with approximately 1.0 million rentable square feet.
The terms “us,” “we,” “our,” and the “Company” as used in these financial statements refer to Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. and its subsidiaries (including our Operating Partnership).
2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying financial statements are the consolidated financial statements of Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Under consolidation guidance, we have determined that our Operating Partnership is a variable interest entity because the holders of limited partnership interests do not have substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. Furthermore, we are the primary beneficiary of the Operating Partnership because we have the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits from the Operating Partnership and the exclusive power to direct the activities of the Operating Partnership. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the assets and liabilities of the Company and the Operating Partnership are substantially the same, as the Company does not have any significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) as established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) including modifications issued under Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). Any reference to the number of properties, buildings and square footage are unaudited and outside the scope of our independent auditor’s audit of our financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
In connection with the adoption of the new lease accounting standard on January 1, 2019, as further described below under—Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements—Leases, tenant reimbursements and other income related to leases have been reclassified to “Rental income” in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 to conform to the 2019 financial statement presentation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these investments.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash is generally comprised of cash proceeds from property sales that are being held by qualified intermediaries for purposes of facilitating tax-deferred like-kind exchanges under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (“1031 Exchange”). We include restricted cash with cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated statements of cash flows

F- 10



and provide a reconciliation between the balance sheet and the statement of cash flows provided that we have outstanding restricted cash balances. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, we did not have restricted cash balances.
Investments in Real Estate
Acquisitions
We account for acquisitions of properties under ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations–Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides a framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses and further revises the definition of a business. Our acquisitions of properties generally no longer meet the revised definition of a business and accordingly are accounted for as asset acquisitions.
For asset acquisitions, we allocate the cost of the acquisition, which includes the purchase price and associated acquisition transaction costs, to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis. These individual assets and liabilities typically include land, building and improvements, tenant improvements, intangible assets and liabilities related to above- and below-market leases, intangible assets related to in-place leases, and from time to time, assumed debt. As there is no measurement period concept for an asset acquisition, the allocated cost of the acquired assets is finalized in the period in which the acquisition occurs.
We determine the fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property by valuing the property as if it were vacant.  This “as-if vacant” value is estimated using an income, or discounted cash flow, approach that relies upon Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions with respect to the assumptions a market participant would use.  These Level 3 inputs include discount rates, capitalization rates, market rents and comparable sales data for similar properties.  Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions.   In determining the “as-if-vacant” value for the properties we acquired during the year ended December 31, 2019, we used discount rates ranging from 5.75% to 7.75% and capitalization rates ranging from 4.50% to 7.25%.
In determining the fair value of intangible lease assets or liabilities, we also consider Level 3 inputs.  Acquired above- and below-market leases are valued based on the present value of the difference between prevailing market rates and the in-place rates measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases, if applicable.  The estimated fair value of acquired in-place at-market tenant leases are the estimated costs that would have been incurred to lease the property to the occupancy level of the property at the date of acquisition. We consider estimated costs such as the value associated with leasing commissions, legal and other costs, as well as the estimated period of time necessary to lease such a property to its occupancy level at the time of its acquisition. In determining the fair value of acquisitions completed during the year ended December 31, 2019, we used an estimated average lease-up period ranging from six months to twelve months.
The difference between the fair value and the face value of debt assumed, if any, in connection with an acquisition is recorded as a premium or discount and amortized to “interest expense” over the life of the debt assumed. The valuation of assumed liabilities is based on our estimate of the current market rates for similar liabilities in effect at the acquisition date.
Capitalization of Costs
We capitalize direct costs incurred in developing, renovating, rehabilitating and improving real estate assets as part of the investment basis. This includes certain general and administrative costs, including payroll, bonus, and non-cash equity compensation of the personnel performing development, renovations and rehabilitation if such costs are identifiable to a specific activity to get the real estate asset ready for its intended use. During the development and construction periods of a project, we also capitalize interest, real estate taxes and insurance costs. We cease capitalization of costs upon substantial completion of the project, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity. If some portions of a project are substantially complete and ready for use and other portions have not yet reached that stage, we cease capitalizing costs on the completed portion of the project but continue to capitalize for the incomplete portion of the project. Costs incurred in making repairs and maintaining real estate assets are expensed as incurred.
We capitalized interest costs of $3.9 million, $2.1 million and $1.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We capitalized real estate taxes and insurance aggregating $1.3 million, $0.9 million, and $1.2 million and during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We capitalized compensation costs for employees who provide construction services of $2.7 million, $2.2 million and $1.9 million during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

F- 11



Depreciation and Amortization
Real estate, including land, building and land improvements, tenant improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment and intangible lease assets and liabilities are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization, unless circumstances indicate that the cost cannot be recovered, in which case, the carrying value of the property is reduced to estimated fair value as discussed below in our policy with regard to impairment of long-lived assets. We estimate the depreciable portion of our real estate assets and related useful lives in order to record depreciation expense.
The values allocated to buildings, site improvements, in-place lease intangibles and tenant improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis using an estimated remaining life of 10-30 years for buildings, 5-20 years for site improvements, and the shorter of the estimated useful life or respective lease term for in-place lease intangibles and tenant improvements.
As discussed above in—Investments in Real EstateAcquisitions, in connection with property acquisitions, we may acquire leases with rental rates above or below the market rental rates. Such differences are recorded as an acquired lease intangible asset or liability and amortized to “rental income” over the remaining term of the related leases.
Our estimate of the useful life of our assets is evaluated upon acquisition and when circumstances indicate that a change in the useful life has occurred, which requires significant judgment regarding the economic obsolescence of tangible and intangible assets.
Assets Held for Sale
We classify a property as held for sale when all of the criteria set forth in ASC Topic 360: Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”) have been met. The criteria are as follows: (i) management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the property; (ii) the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition, subject only to terms that are usual and customary; (iii) an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell have been initiated; (iv) the sale of the property is probable and is expected to be completed within one year; (v) the property is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; and (vi) actions necessary to complete the plan of sale indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. At the time we classify a property as held for sale, we cease recording depreciation and amortization. A property classified as held for sale is measured and reported at the lower of its carrying amount or its estimated fair value less cost to sell. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we did not have any properties classified as held for sale.
Deferred Leasing Costs
Subsequent to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard on January 1, 2019, we only capitalize incremental direct costs of a lease that would not have been incurred had the lease not been executed. As a result, deferred leasing costs on a go-forward basis, will generally only include third-party broker commissions. Prior to January 1, 2019, under prior lease accounting guidance, we capitalized all initial direct costs which included third third-party broker commissions, as well as an allocation of internal compensation costs, including payroll, bonus and non-cash equity compensation, of employees who spent time on lease origination activities. In determining the amount of compensation costs to be capitalized for these employees, allocations were made based on estimates of the actual amount of time spent working on successful leases in comparison to time spent on unsuccessful origination efforts. We capitalized compensation costs for these employees of $1.0 million and $1.0 million during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with the provisions of the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of ASC 360, we assess the carrying values of our respective long-lived assets, including goodwill, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be fully recoverable.
Recoverability of real estate assets is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows. To review real estate assets for recoverability, we consider current market conditions as well as our intent with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. The intent with regards to the underlying assets might change as market conditions and other factors change. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, applying a capitalization rate to estimated net operating income of a property, quoted market values and third-party appraisals, where considered necessary. The use of projected future cash flows is based on assumptions that are consistent with estimates of future expectations and the strategic plan used to manage our underlying business. If our analysis indicates that the carrying value of the real estate asset is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, we will recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the current estimated fair value of the real estate property.

F- 12



Assumptions and estimates used in the recoverability analyses for future cash flows, discount rates and capitalization rates are complex and subjective. Changes in economic and operating conditions or our intent with respect to our investment that occur subsequent to our impairment analyses could impact these assumptions and result in future impairment of our real estate properties. There were no impairment charges recorded to the carrying value of our properties during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 or 2017.
Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities
Investments in unconsolidated real estate entities in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence (but not control) are accounted for under the equity method of investment.  Under the equity method, we initially record our investment at cost, and subsequently adjust for equity in earnings or losses and cash contributions and distributions. Any difference between the carrying amount of these investments on the balance sheet and the underlying equity in net assets is amortized as an adjustment to equity in income (loss) from unconsolidated real estate over the life of the related asset. Under the equity method of accounting, our net equity investment is reflected within the consolidated balance sheets, and our share of net income or loss from the joint venture is included within the consolidated statements of operations.  Furthermore, distributions received from equity method investments are classified as either operating cash inflows or investing cash inflows in the consolidated statements of cash flows using the “nature of the distribution approach,” in which each distribution is evaluated on the basis of the source of the payment.  
We previously held a noncontrolling interest in a property through a joint venture (the “JV”). In 2016, following the sale of the JV’s final property, the JV distributed all of its available cash, with the exception of a small amount of working capital which was retained to cover the residual costs associated with the winding down of the JV. During the year ended December 31, 2017, all remaining assets were liquidated by the JV and we received a final distribution in the amount of $11 thousand which is reported in the line item “Equity in income from unconsolidated real estate entities” in the consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we did not have any investments in unconsolidated real estate entities.
Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2013. To qualify as a REIT, we are required (among other things) to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and meet the various other requirements imposed by the Code relating to matters such as operating results, asset holdings, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Provided we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and were unable to avail ourselves of certain savings provisions set forth in the Code, all of our taxable income would be subject to regular federal corporate income tax, including any applicable alternative minimum tax.
In addition, we are subject to taxation by various state and local jurisdictions, including those in which we transact business or reside. Our non-taxable REIT subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership, are either partnerships or disregarded entities for federal income tax purposes. Under applicable federal and state income tax rules, the allocated share of net income or loss from disregarded entities and flow-through entities such as partnerships is reportable in the income tax returns of the respective equity holders. Accordingly, no income tax provision is included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017.
We periodically evaluate our tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we have not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
ASC Topic 815: Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), provides the disclosure requirements for derivatives and hedging activities with the intent to provide users of financial statements with an enhanced understanding of: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how the entity accounts for derivative instruments and related hedged items, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Further, qualitative disclosures are required that explain the Company’s objectives and strategies for using derivatives, as well as quantitative disclosures about the fair value of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative instruments.
As required by ASC 815, we record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value.  The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, and whether we have elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria

F- 13



necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge.  We may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or we elect not to apply hedge accounting.  See Note 7.
Revenue Recognition
Our primary sources of revenue are rental income, management, leasing and development services and gains on sale of real estate.
Rental Income
Minimum annual lease payments are recognized in rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease, regardless of when payments are contractually due. Rental income recognition commences when the tenant takes possession or controls the physical use of the leased space. Lease termination fees, which are included in rental income, are recognized when the related leases are canceled and we have no continuing obligation to provide services to such former tenants.
Our lease agreements with tenants generally contain provisions that require tenants to reimburse us for certain property expenses. Estimated reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses are recognized as revenues in the period that the expenses are incurred. Subsequent to year-end, we perform final reconciliations on a lease-by-lease basis and bill or credit each tenant for any cumulative annual adjustments.
Management, leasing and development services
We provide property management services and leasing services to related party and third-party property owners in exchange for fees and commissions. Property management services include performing property inspections, monitoring repairs and maintenance, negotiating vendor contracts, maintaining tenant relations and providing financial and accounting oversight. For these services, we earn monthly management fees, which are based on a fixed percentage of each managed property’s monthly tenant cash receipts. We have determined that control over the services is passed to the customer simultaneously as performance occurs. Accordingly, management fee revenue is earned as the services are provided to our customers.
Leasing commissions are earned when we provide leasing services that result in an executed lease with a tenant. We have determined that control over the services is transferred to the customer upon execution of each lease agreement. We earn leasing commissions based on a fixed percentage of rental income generated for each executed lease agreement and there is no variable income component.
Gain or Loss on Sale of Real Estate
We account for dispositions of real estate properties, which are considered nonfinancial assets, in accordance with ASC 610-20: Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets and recognize a gain or loss on sale of real estate upon transferring control of the nonfinancial asset to the purchaser, which is generally satisfied at the time of sale. If we were to conduct a partial sale of real estate by transferring a controlling interest in a nonfinancial asset, while retaining a noncontrolling ownership interest, we would measure any noncontrolling interest received or retained at fair value and recognize a full gain or loss. If we receive consideration before transferring control of a nonfinancial asset, we recognize a contract liability. If we transfer control of the asset before consideration is received, we recognize a contract asset.
Valuation of Receivables
We may be subject to tenant defaults and bankruptcies that could affect the collection of outstanding receivables related to our operating leases. In order to mitigate these risks, we perform credit reviews and analyses on prospective tenants before significant leases are executed and on existing tenants before properties are acquired. On a quarterly basis, we perform an assessment of the collectability of operating lease receivables on a tenant-by-tenant basis, which includes reviewing the age and nature of our receivables, the payment history and financial condition of the tenant, our assessment of the tenant’s ability to meet its lease obligations and the status of negotiations of any disputes with the tenant. Any changes in the collectability assessment for an operating lease is recognized as an adjustment, which can be a reduction or increase, to rental income in the consolidated statements of operations. As a result of our quarterly collectability assessments, we recognized $0.7 million and

F- 14



$1.2 million, $1.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 respectively, as a reduction of rental income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability are presented in the balance sheet as a reduction from the carrying value of the debt liability. This offset against the debt liability is treated similarly to a debt discount, which effectively reduces the proceeds of a borrowing. For line of credit arrangements, we present debt issuance costs as an asset and amortize the cost over the term of the line of credit arrangement. See Note 5.
Equity Based Compensation
We account for equity-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation.  Total compensation cost for all share-based awards is based on the estimated fair market value on the grant date. For share-based awards that vest based solely on a service condition, we recognize compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the total requisite service period for the entire award.  For share-based awards that vest based on a market condition, we recognize compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of each separately vesting tranche.  For share-based awards that vest based on a performance condition, we recognize compensation cost based on the number of awards that are expected to vest based on the probable outcome of the performance condition. Compensation cost for these awards will be adjusted to reflect the number of awards that ultimately vest. Forfeitures are recognized in the period in which they occur. See Note 13.
Equity Offering Costs
Underwriting commissions and offering costs related to our common stock issuances have been reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. Underwriting commissions and offering costs related to our preferred stock issuances have been reflected as a direct reduction of the preferred stock balance.
Earnings Per Share
We calculate earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260 – Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260”). Under ASC 260, nonvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities and, therefore, are included in computing basic EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings.
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period.
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding determined for the basic EPS computation plus the effect of any dilutive securities. We include unvested shares of restricted stock and unvested LTIP units in the computation of diluted EPS by using the more dilutive of the two-class method or treasury stock method. We include unvested performance units as contingently issuable shares in the computation of diluted EPS once the market criteria are met, assuming that the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period. Any anti-dilutive securities are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation. See Note 14.
Segment Reporting
Management views the Company as a single reportable segment based on its method of internal reporting in addition to its allocation of capital and resources.
Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements
Leases
On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which sets out the principals for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. ASU 2016-02 was subsequently amended by the following updates: (i) ASU 2018-10, Leases: Codification Improvements to Topic 842, (ii) ASU 2018-11, Leases: Targeted Improvements, (iii) ASU 2018-20, Leases: Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors and (iv) ASU 2019-01, Leases: Codification Improvements (collectively referred to as “ASC 842”). ASC 842 supersedes prior lease accounting guidance contained in ASC Topic 840, Leases (“ASC 840”).

F- 15



On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach and elected to apply the provisions as of the date of adoption on a prospective basis. In making this election, we have continued to apply ASC 840 to comparative periods, including providing disclosures required by ASC 840 for these periods, and we recognized the effects of applying ASC 842 as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2019, as described below under “Lessor”.
Upon adoption of ASC 842, we elected the “package of practical expedients” which allowed us to not reassess (a) whether expired or existing contracts as of January 1, 2019 are or contain leases, (b) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases as of January 1, 2019, and (c) the treatment of initial direct costs relating to any existing leases as of January 1, 2019. The package of practical expedients was made as a single election and was consistently applied to all leases that commenced before January 1, 2019.
Lessor
ASC 842 requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases, and operating leases. As we elected the package of practical expedients, our existing leases as of January 1, 2019, continue to be accounted for as operating leases.
Upon adoption of ASC 842, we elected the practical expedient permitting lessors to elect by class of underlying asset to not separate non-lease components (for example, maintenance services, including common area maintenance) from associated lease components (the “non-separation practical expedient”) if both of the following criteria are met: (1) the timing and pattern of transfer of the lease and non-lease component(s) are the same and (2) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if it were accounted for separately. If both criteria are met, the combined component is accounted for in accordance with ASC 842 if the lease component is the predominant component of the combined component; otherwise, the combined component is accounted for in accordance with the revenue recognition standard. We assessed the criteria above with respect to our operating leases and determined that they qualify for the non-separation practical expedient. As a result, we have accounted for and presented all rental income earned pursuant to operating leases, including tenant reimbursements, as a single line item “Rental income” in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019. Prior to the adoption of ASC 842, we presented rental income, tenant reimbursements and other income related to leases separately in our consolidated statements of operations. For comparability, we have adjusted our comparative consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, to conform to the 2019 financial statement presentation.
Under ASC 842, lessors are required to record revenues and expenses on a gross basis for lessor costs (which include real estate taxes) when these costs are reimbursed by a lessee. Conversely, lessors are required to record revenues and expenses on a net basis for lessor costs when they are paid by a lessee directly to a third party on behalf of the lessor. Prior to the adoption of ASC 842, we recorded revenues and expenses on a gross basis for real estate taxes whether they were reimbursed to us by a tenant or paid directly by a tenant to the taxing authorities on our behalf. Effective January 1, 2019, we are recording these costs in accordance with ASC 842.
ASC 842 only allows lessors to capitalize the incremental direct costs of originating a lease that would not have been incurred had the lease not been executed. As a result, deferred leasing costs will generally only include third-party broker commissions. Prior to January 1, 2019, under ASC 840, we capitalized incremental direct costs, which included an allocation of internal compensation costs of employees who spent time on successful lease origination activities. Effective January 1, 2019, such costs will no longer be capitalized as initial direct costs and instead will be expensed as incurred.
For leases that commenced prior to January 1, 2019, capitalized internal compensation costs will continue to be amortized over the remaining life of the lease. For leases that were executed but had not commenced prior to January 1, 2019, we recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to “Cumulative distributions in excess of earnings” of $0.2 million to write off these capitalized internal compensation costs, as these costs were capitalized in accordance with ASC 840, as noted above, and do not qualify for capitalization under ASC 842.
See “Deferred Leasing Costs” above for a summary of employee related compensation costs capitalized during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
See Note 6 for additional lessor disclosures required under ASC 842.
Lessee
ASC 842 requires lessees to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (1) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”), which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASC 842 also requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating leases based on whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase of the leased asset by the lessee. This

F- 16



classification is used to evaluate whether the lease expense should be recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
As of January 1, 2019, we were the lessee on one ground lease and multiple office space leases, which were classified as operating leases under ASC 840. As we elected the package of practical expedients, we were not required to reassess the classification of these existing leases and as such, these leases continue to be accounted for as operating leases. In the event we modify our existing leases or enter into new leases in the future, such leases may be classified as finance leases.
On January 1, 2019, we recognized ROU assets and lease liabilities for these leases on our consolidated balance sheets, and on a go-forward basis, lease expense will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease.
Upon adoption of ASC 842, we also elected the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, from associated lease components for our ground and office space leases.
See Note 6 for additional lessee disclosures required under ASC 842.
Derivatives
On August 28, 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (“ASU 2017-12”). ASU 2017-12 simplifies hedge accounting by eliminating the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and generally requires the entire change in the fair value of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item. For cash flow hedges, ASU 2017-12 requires all changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument to be deferred in other comprehensive income and recognized in earnings at the same time that the hedged item affects earnings. ASU 2017-12 also eases certain documentation and assessment requirements and modifies the accounting for components excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. ASU 2017-12 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Effective January 1, 2018, we early adopted ASU 2017-12 using the modified retrospective approach. We did not record a cumulative effect adjustment to eliminate ineffectiveness amounts as we did not have any ineffectiveness in our historical consolidated financial statements. In addition, certain provisions of ASU 2017-12 require modifications to existing presentation and disclosure requirements on a prospective basis. See Note 7 for disclosures relating to our derivative instruments.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Changes to GAAP are established by the FASB in the form of ASUs to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification. We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Other than the ASUs discussed below, the FASB has not recently issued any other ASUs that we expect to be applicable and have a material impact on our financial statements.
Allowance for Credit Losses
On June 16, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which amends the accounting for credit losses for certain financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 introduced the “current expected credit losses” (CECL) model, which requires companies to estimate credit losses immediately upon exposure. The guidance applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost including financing receivables (loans) and trade receivables.  On November 26, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instrument - Credit Losses, which clarifies that operating lease receivables are outside the scope of ASC Topic 326 and instead should be accounted for under ASC 842. ASU 2016-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or notes to our consolidated financial statements.

Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement
On July 16, 2019, we entered into a Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement (the “NPGA”) which provides for the private placement of $100.0 million of guaranteed senior notes, of which (i) $25.0 million are designated as 3.88% Series 2019A Guaranteed Senior Notes due July 16, 2029 (the "Series 2019A Notes") and (ii) $75.0 million are designated as 4.03% Series 2019B Guaranteed Senior Notes due July 16, 2034 (the "Series 2019B Notes" and, together with the Series 2019A Notes, the "Series 2019A and 2019B Notes"). On July 16, 2019, we completed the issuance of the Series 2019A and 2019B Notes.
Interest on the Series 2019A and 2019B Notes will be payable semiannually on the sixteenth day of January and July in each year, beginning on January 16, 2020, until maturity.
We may prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Series 2019A and 2019B Notes, in amounts not less than $2.5 million of the Series 2019A and 2019B Notes then outstanding at (i) 100% of the principal amount so prepaid and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount (as defined in the NPGA).
Our obligations under the Series 2019A and 2019B Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by us and certain of our subsidiaries.    
Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement
On January 16, 2018, we entered into the Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Fourth Amendment”) to amend our Credit Agreement, dated as of January 14, 2016 (as amended from time to time) for our $225.0 million unsecured term loan facility (the “$225 Million Term Loan Facility”).
Amounts outstanding under the $225 Million Term Loan Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin that is based upon our leverage ratio or (ii) the Base Rate, as defined in the $225 Million Term Loan Facility, plus an applicable margin that is based on our leverage ratio. The Fourth Amendment decreases the applicable margin for LIBOR-based borrowings from a range of 1.50% to 2.25% per annum to a range of 1.20% to 1.70% per annum and decreases the applicable margin for Base Rate-based borrowings from a range of 0.50% to 1.25% per annum to a range of 0.20% to 0.70% per annum.
If we obtain one additional investment grade rating by one or more of Standard & Poor's Financial Services (“S&P”) or Moody's Investor Services (“Moody’s”) to complement our current investment grade Fitch rating, we may elect to convert the pricing structure under the $225 Million Term Loan Facility to be based on such rating. Under this pricing structure, the Fourth Amendment decreases the applicable margin for LIBOR-based borrowings from a range of 1.40% to 2.35% per annum to a range of 0.90% to 1.75% per annum and decreases the applicable margin for Base Rate-based borrowings from a range of 0.40% to 1.35% per annum to a range of 0.00% to 0.75% per annum.
$150 Million Term Loan Facility
On May 22, 2018, we entered into a credit agreement for a senior unsecured term loan facility (the “$150 Million Term Loan Facility”) that initially permits aggregate borrowings of up to $150.0 million, the total of which we borrowed the same day at closing. Under the terms of the $150 Million Term Loan Facility, we may request additional incremental term loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100.0 million. Any increase in borrowings is subject to the satisfaction of specified conditions and the identification of lenders willing to make available such additional amounts. The maturity date of the $150 Million Term Loan Facility is May 22, 2025.    

F- 25



Interest on the $150 Million Term Loan Facility is generally to be paid based upon, at our option, either (i) LIBOR plus an applicable Eurodollar rate margin or (ii) the Base Rate (which is defined as the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the administrative agent’s prime rate or (c) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%), plus an applicable base rate margin. The applicable Eurodollar rate margin will range from 1.50% to 2.20% per annum for LIBOR-based borrowings and the applicable base rate margin will range from 0.50% to 1.20% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on our leverage ratio.
If we obtain one additional investment grade rating from one or more of S&P or Moody's to complement our current investment grade Fitch rating, we may elect to convert the pricing structure under the $150 Million Term Loan Facility to be based on such rating. Under this pricing structure, the applicable Eurodollar rate margin will range from 1.40% to 2.35% per annum and the applicable base rate margin will range from 0.40% to 1.35% per annum.
    We have the option to voluntarily prepay any amounts borrowed under the $150 Million Term Loan Facility in whole or in part at any time, subject to certain notice requirements. To the extent that we prepay all or any portion of a loan prior to May 22, 2020, we will pay a prepayment premium equal to (i) if such prepayment occurs prior to May 22, 2019, 2.00% of the principal amount so prepaid, and (ii) if such prepayment occurs on or after May 22, 2019, but prior to May 22, 2020, 1.00% of the principal amount so prepaid. Amounts borrowed under the $150 Million Term Loan Facility and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
The $150 Million Term Loan Facility contains usual and customary events of default including defaults in the payment of principal, interest or fees, defaults in compliance with the covenants set forth in the credit agreement and other loan documentation, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness, and bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the $150 Million Term Loan Facility, all outstanding principal amounts, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, may be declared immediately due and payable.
Modification of $60 Million Term Loan
On June 27, 2018, we entered into the Second Modification Agreement (the “Modification Agreement”) to amend our Term Loan Agreement, dated as of July 24, 2013 (as amended from time to time) for our $60.0 million term loan (the “$60 Million Term Loan”)
The Modification Agreement, among other things, (i) extends the maturity date of the $60 Million Term Loan from August 1, 2019, to August 1, 2023, (ii) decreases the interest rate from LIBOR plus 1.90% per annum to LIBOR plus 1.70% per annum, (iii) provides for one 24-month extension option at the borrower’s option, subject to certain terms and conditions, and (iv) amends the repayment schedule of the $60 Million Term Loan by adding 36 months of interest only payments, followed by equal monthly payments of principal ($65,250), plus accrued interest until maturity.
Credit Facility
As of December 31, 2019, we have a $450.0 million senior unsecured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), comprised of a $350.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) and a $100.0 million unsecured term loan facility (the “$100 Million Term Loan Facility”). The Revolver is scheduled to mature on February 12, 2021, and has two six-month extension options available, and the $100 Million Term Loan Facility is scheduled to mature on February 14, 2022. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, we may request additional lender commitments up to an additional aggregate $550.0 million, which may be comprised of additional revolving commitments under the Revolver, an increase to the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, additional term loan tranches or any combination of the foregoing.
Interest on the Credit Facility, is generally to be paid based upon, at our option, either (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin that is based upon our leverage ratio or (ii) the Base Rate (which is defined as the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the administrative agent’s prime rate or (c) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin that is based on our leverage ratio. The margins for the Revolver range in amount from 1.10% to 1.50% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.10% to 0.50% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on our leverage ratio. The margins for the $100 Million Term Loan Facility range in amount from 1.20% to 1.70% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.20% to 0.70% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on our leverage ratio.
If we attain one additional investment grade rating by one or more of S&P or Moody’s to complement our current investment grade Fitch rating, we may elect to convert the pricing structure under the Credit Facility to be based on such rating. In that event, the margins for the Revolver will range in amount from 0.825% to 1.55% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.55% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on such rating, and the margins for the $100 Million Term Loan Facility will range in amount from 0.90% to 1.75% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.75% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on such rating.
In addition to the interest payable on amounts outstanding under the Revolver, we are required to pay an applicable facility fee, based upon our leverage ratio, on each lender's commitment amount under the Revolver, regardless of usage. The applicable facility fee will range in amount from 0.15% to 0.30% per annum, depending on our leverage ratio. In the event that

F- 26



we convert the pricing structure to be based on an investment-grade rating, the applicable facility fee will range in amount from 0.125% to 0.30% per annum, depending on such rating.
The Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company and by substantially all of the current and to-be-formed subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership that own an unencumbered property. The Credit Facility is not secured by the Company’s properties or by equity interests in the subsidiaries that hold such properties.
The Revolver and the $100 Million Term Loan Facility may be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty.  Amounts borrowed under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
The Credit Facility contains usual and customary events of default including defaults in the payment of principal, interest or fees, defaults in compliance with the covenants set forth in the Credit Facility and other loan documentation, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness, and bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Credit Facility, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, may be declared immediately due and payable. 
As of December 31, 2019, we did not have any borrowings outstanding under the Revolver, leaving $350.0 million available for future borrowings.
On February 13, 2020, we amended and expanded the Credit Facility. For additional details see Note 16 – Subsequent Events.
Debt Covenants
The Credit Facility, $225 Million Term Loan Facility, $150 Million Term Loan Facility, our $100.0 million unsecured guaranteed senior notes (the “$100 Million Notes”), our $125.0 million unsecured guaranteed senior notes (the “$125 Million Notes”) and the Series 2019A and 2019B Notes all include a series of financial and other covenants that we must comply with, including the following covenants which are tested on a quarterly basis:
Maintaining a ratio of total indebtedness to total asset value of not more than 60%;
For the Credit Facility, $225 Million Term Loan Facility and $150 Million Term Loan Facility, maintaining a ratio of secured debt to total asset value of not more than 45%;

Subject to the terms of the $100 Million Notes, $125 Million Notes and Series 2019A and 2019B Notes (together the “Senior Notes”), upon certain events of default, including, but not limited to, (i) a default in the payment of any principal, make-whole payment amount, or interest under the Senior Notes, (ii) a default in the payment of certain of our other indebtedness, (iii) a default in compliance with the covenants set forth in the Senior Notes agreement, and (iv) bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults, the principal and accrued and unpaid interest and the make-whole payment amount on the outstanding Senior Notes will become due and payable at the option of the purchasers. In addition, we are required to maintain at all times a credit rating on the Senior Notes from either S&P, Moody’s or Fitch. In November 2019, Fitch affirmed the BBB rating of the Senior Notes with a stable outlook.

F- 27



The $60 Million Term Loan contains the following financial covenants:
Maintaining a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined in the term loan agreement) of at least 1.10 to 1.00, to be tested quarterly;
Maintaining Unencumbered Liquid Assets (as defined in the term loan agreement) of not less than (i) $5,000,000, or (ii) $8,000,000 if we elect to have Line of Credit Availability (as defined in the term loan agreement) included in the calculation, of which $2,000,000 must be cash or cash equivalents, to be tested annually as of December 31 of each year;
Maintaining a minimum Fair Market Net Worth (as defined in the term loan agreement) of at least $75,000,000, to be tested annually as of December 31 of each year.
We were in compliance with all of our quarterly and annual debt covenants as of December 31, 2019.

Operating Leases
Lessor
We lease industrial space to tenants primarily under non-cancelable operating leases that generally contain provisions for minimum base rents plus reimbursement for certain operating expenses. Total minimum lease payments are recognized in rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease and estimated reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses are recognized in rental income in the period that the expenses are incurred.
We recognized $256.3 million of rental income related to operating lease payments of which $214.5 million are for fixed lease payments and $41.8 million are for variable lease payments for the year ended December 31, 2019.
The following table sets forth the undiscounted cash flows for future minimum base rents to be received under operating leases as of December 31, 2019 (in thousands):

Lessee
ASC 842 Current Period Disclosures
Prior to July 3, 2019, we leased a parcel of land located at 3340 North San Fernando Road under a long-term ground lease, with an expiration date of June 1, 2062, no options to renew, no purchase option, and ground rent, which reset every 10 years, equal to 8.0% of the fair market value of the land, subject to a minimum monthly rent of $12,000. On July 3, 2019, we both acquired the fee title to the parcel of land and assumed the related ground lease from the seller/lessor, such that we became both the ground lessor and the ground lessee under the ground lease.
We lease office space as part of conducting our day-to-day business. As of December 31, 2019, our office space leases have remaining lease terms ranging from approximately 4 months to 5 years and some include options to renew. These renewal terms can extend the lease term from 3 to 5 years and are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option.
Upon the adoption of ASC 842 on January 1, 2019, we recognized lease liabilities of $3.6 million (in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities”) and related ROU assets of $3.3 million (in “Other assets”) on our consolidated balance sheets, based on the present value of lease payments for the remaining term of our existing leases. Operating lease

F- 28



ROU assets and liabilities commencing after January 1, 2019 are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Upon acquisition of the parcel of land noted above, we reclassified the ROU asset to land and recorded the difference between the purchase price and the carrying amount of the lease liability immediately before the purchase as an adjustment of the carrying value of the land. As of December 31, 2019, total ROU assets and lease liabilities were approximately $3.5 million and $3.8 million, respectively. All operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The tables below present financial information associated with our leases. This information is only presented as of, and for year ended December 31, 2019 because, as previously noted, we adopted ASC 842 on a prospective basis which does not require application to periods prior to adoption.

Because the rate implicit in each of our leases was not readily determinable, we used our incremental borrowing rate. In determining our incremental borrowing rate for each lease, we considered recent rates on secured borrowings, observable risk-free interest rates and credit spreads correlating to our creditworthiness, the impact of collateralization and the term of each of our lease agreements.

We recognized rental expense for our ground lease in the amount of $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We recognized rental expense for our office space leases in the amount of $0.7 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. 
On September 14, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), we entered into a ground lease for approximately 1.58 million square feet of land located in Corona, California, with the intention to develop buildings on the site. Under the terms of the ground lease, we had up to 420 days from the Effective Date, subject to certain conditions, to satisfy and waive certain contingencies, or terminate the ground leases for any reason. On March 13, 2017, we terminated the ground lease. As a result of the termination, we wrote-off $0.3 million of previously incurred transaction costs to the line item “Acquisition expenses” in the consolidated statements of operations.

Interest Rate Swaps
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions.  We principally manage our exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of our core business activities. We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments.  Specifically, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates.  Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash payments principally related to our borrowings.  
Derivative Instruments
Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy.  Interest rate swaps involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.  
The change in fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) (“AOCI”) and is subsequently reclassified from AOCI into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.

The following table sets forth a summary of our interest rate swaps as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 (dollars in thousands).

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
Certain of our agreements with our derivative counterparties contain a provision where if we default on any of our indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender within a specified time period, then we could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.
Certain of our agreements with our derivative counterparties contain provisions where if a merger or acquisition occurs that materially changes our creditworthiness in an adverse manner, we may be required to fully collateralize our obligations under the derivative instrument.

Fair Value Measurements
We have adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820: Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  ASC 820 applies to reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements; accordingly, the standard does not require any new fair value measurements of reported balances. 
ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement.  Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or

F- 31



liability.  As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).
Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
Recurring Measurements – Interest Rate Swaps
Currently, we use interest rate swap agreements to manage our interest rate risk.  The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves. 
To comply with the provisions of ASC 820, we incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.  In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we have considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees.
Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by ourselves and our counterparties.  However, as of December 31, 2019, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives.  As a result, we have determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The table below sets forth the estimated fair value of our interest rate swaps as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, which we measure on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands).

Financial Instruments Disclosed at Fair Value
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, rents and other receivables, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, and tenant security deposits approximate fair value because of their short-term nature.
The fair value of our notes payable was estimated by calculating the present value of principal and interest payments, using discount rates that best reflect current market rates for financings with similar characteristics and credit quality, and assuming each loan is outstanding through its respective contractual maturity date.

Related Party Transactions
Howard Schwimmer
We engage in transactions with Howard Schwimmer, our Co-Chief Executive Officer, earning management fees and leasing commissions from entities controlled individually by Mr. Schwimmer. Fees and commissions earned from these entities are included in “Management, leasing and development services” in the consolidated statements of operations.  We recorded $0.4 million, $0.4 million and $0.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively, in management, leasing and development services revenue.
Purchase and Sale Agreement
On November 30, 2017, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the "Agreement") with 6110-6114 Cahuenga Avenue, LLC (the "Buyer"), which was subsequently amended on January 2, 2018, for the sale of our property located at 200-220 South Grand Avenue for a contract price of approximately $4.5 million. Larry Schwimmer is the general partner of the Buyer and father of Howard Schwimmer, our Co-Chief Executive Officer. Prior to entering into the Agreement, the relevant facts and circumstances relating to this transaction were presented to our audit committee, in accordance with our corporate governance guidelines, and to our board of directors. This transaction was unanimously approved by our audit committee in accordance with our corporate governance guidelines. On March 7, 2018, the sale of this property was completed.
On March 7, 2018, we also entered into management agreements with the Buyer and Howard Schwimmer to provide property management and leasing services for the property. Fees and commissions earned from managing this property are included in “Management, leasing and development services” in the consolidated statements of operations.

10.    Commitments and Contingencies
Legal
From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that we believe would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Environmental
We generally will perform environmental site assessments at properties we are considering acquiring. After the acquisition of such properties, we continue to monitor the properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. From time to time, we acquire properties with known adverse environmental conditions. If at the time of acquisition, losses associated with environmental remediation obligations are probable and can be reasonably estimated, we record a liability.
On February 25, 2014, we acquired the property located at West 228th Street. Before purchasing the property, during the due diligence phase, we engaged a third party environmental consultant to perform various environmental site assessments to determine the presence of any environmental contaminants that might warrant remediation efforts. Based on their investigation, they determined that hazardous substances existed at the property and that additional assessment and remediation work would likely be required to satisfy regulatory requirements. The total remediation costs were estimated to be $1.3 million, which includes remediation, processing and oversight costs.
To address the estimated costs associated with the environmental issues at the West 228th Street property, we entered into an Environmental Holdback Escrow Agreement (the “Holdback Agreement”) with the former owner, whereby $1.4 million was placed into an escrow account to be used to pay remediation costs. To fund the $1.4 million, the escrow holder withheld $1.3 million of the purchase price, which would have otherwise been paid to the seller at closing, and the Company funded an additional $0.1 million. According to the Holdback Agreement, the seller has no liability or responsibility to pay for remediation costs in excess of $1.3 million.
As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we had a $0.6 million and $1.0 million contingent liability recorded in our consolidated balance sheets included in the line item “Accounts payable and accrued expenses,” reflecting the estimated remaining cost to remediate environmental liabilities at West 228th Street that existed prior to the acquisition date. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we also had a $0.6 million and $1.0 million corresponding indemnification asset recorded in our consolidated balance sheets in the line item “Other assets,” reflecting the estimated costs we expect the former owner to cover pursuant to the Holdback Agreement.
We expect that the resolution of the environmental matters relating to the above will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, we cannot be sure that we have identified all environmental liabilities at our properties, that all necessary remediation actions have been or will be undertaken at our properties or that we will be indemnified, in full or at all, in the event that such environmental liabilities arise. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that future changes to environmental laws or regulations and their application will not give rise to loss contingencies for future environmental remediation.
Tenant and Construction Related Commitments
As of December 31, 2019, we had commitments of approximately $31.9 million for tenant improvement and construction work under the terms of leases with certain of our tenants and contractual agreements with our construction vendors.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
We have deposited cash with financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000 per institution.  Although we have deposits at institutions in excess of federally insured limits as of December 31, 2019, we do not believe we are exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the institutions in which those deposits are held.
As of December 31, 2019, all of our properties are located in the Southern California infill markets.  The ability of the tenants to honor the terms of their respective leases is dependent upon the economic, regulatory and social factors affecting the markets in which the tenants operate.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, no single tenant accounted for more than 5% of our total consolidated rental income.

Stockholders’ Equity
Preferred Stock
On September 20, 2019, we completed an underwritten public offering of 3,450,000 shares of our 5.625% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred Stock") at a price of $25.00 per share. The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $83.2 million after deducting the underwriters’ discount and offering costs totaling $3.0 million. The Series C Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share and may be redeemed at the option of the Company on or after September 20, 2024, or earlier upon certain circumstances.
On November 13, 2017, we completed an underwritten public offering of 3,000,000 shares of our 5.875% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series B Preferred Stock") at a price of $25.00 per share. The net proceeds from

F- 35



the offering were approximately $72.5 million after deducting the underwriters’ discount and offering costs totaling $2.5 million. The Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share and may be redeemed at the option of the Company on or after November 13, 2022, or earlier upon certain circumstances.
As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we had 3,600,000 shares of our 5.875% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") issued and outstanding. The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share and may be redeemed at the option of the Company on or after August 16, 2021, or earlier upon certain circumstances.
Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Series A, B and C Preferred Stock”) are cumulative and will be payable quarterly in arrears on or about the last day of March, June, September and December of each year. The Series A, B and C Preferred Stock have no stated maturity dates and will not be subject to mandatory redemption or any sinking funds. The holders of our Series A, B and C Preferred Stock rank senior to the holders of our common stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up of its affairs. The holders of our Series A, B and C Preferred Stock generally have no voting rights except for limited voting rights if we fail to pay dividends for six or more quarterly dividend periods (whether or not consecutive). Upon the occurrence of a specified change of control transaction, we may, at our option, redeem the Series A, B and C Preferred Stock in whole or in part within 120 days after the change of control occurred, by paying $25.00 per share in cash, plus any accrued and unpaid distributions through the date of redemption. If we do not exercise our right to redeem the Series A, B and C Preferred Stock, upon the occurrence of a specified change of control transaction, the holders of Series A, B and C Preferred Stock have the right to convert some or all of their shares into a number of the Company’s common shares equivalent to $25.00 plus accrued and unpaid dividends, divided by the average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock for the 10 trading days preceding the date of the change of control, but not to exceed a certain capped number of shares of common stock per share of Series A, B and C Preferred Stock, subject to certain adjustments.
Common Stock
On June 13, 2019, we established a new at-the-market equity offering program (the “$550 Million ATM Program”) pursuant to which we may sell from time to time up to an aggregate of $550.0 million of our common stock through sales agents. The $550 Million ATM Program replaces our previous $450.0 million at-the-market equity offering program which was established on February 19, 2019. In addition, we previously established a $400.0 million at-the-market equity offering program on June 13, 2018, a $300.0 million at-the-market equity offering program on September 21, 2017, a $150 million at-the-market program on June 12, 2017, and a $125 million at-the-market program on April 17, 2015. Substantially all available shares of common stock under each of the previous at-the-market programs were sold prior to establishing new programs.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we sold a total of 16,817,930 shares of our common stock under our various at-the-market equity offering programs, at a weighted average price of $38.61 per share, for gross proceeds of $649.3 million, and net proceeds of $639.6 million, after deducting the sales agents’ fee. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we sold 18,177,242 shares of our common stock under our various at-the-market equity offering programs, at a weighted average price of $31.12 per share, for gross proceeds of $565.6 million, and net proceeds of $557.1 million , after deducting the sales agents’ fee. During the year ended December 31, 2017, we sold 11,968,927 shares of our common stock under our various at-the-market equity offering programs, at a weighted average price of $28.13 per share, for gross proceeds of $336.6 million, and net proceeds of $331.6 million, after deducting the sales agent’s fee.
As of December 31, 2019, we had the capacity to issue up to an additional $350.7 million of common stock under the $550 Million ATM Program. Actual sales going forward, if any, will depend on a variety of factors, including among others, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock, determinations by us of the appropriate sources of funding for us and potential uses of funding available to us.
Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests relate to interests in the Operating Partnership, represented by common units of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”), fully-vested LTIP units, fully-vested performance units and Series 1 CPOP Units, as described below, that are not owned by us.
Operating Partnership Units
As of December 31, 2019, noncontrolling interests consisted of 1,832,226 OP Units and 891,547 fully-vested LTIP units and performance units which represented approximately 2.3% of our Operating Partnership. OP Units and shares of our common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of our Operating Partnership. Investors who own OP Units have the right to cause our Operating Partnership to redeem any or all of their units in our Operating Partnership for an amount of cash per unit equal to the then current market

F- 36



value of one share of common stock, or, at our election, shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. See Note 14 for a description of LTIP units and Performance Units.
During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, we redeemed 96,060, 67,175 and 61,256 OP Units, respectively, in exchange for issuing to the holders of the OP Units an equal number of shares of our common stock, resulting in the reclassification of $0.7 million, $0.6 million, and $0.6 million, respectively, from noncontrolling interests to total stockholders’ equity.
Preferred Units - Series 1 CPOP Units    
On April 10, 2019, we acquired from an unaffiliated seller (the “Seller”) an industrial property located at 1515 East 15th Street for a purchase price of $28.1 million. In consideration for the property, we issued the Seller 593,960 newly issued 4.43937% Cumulative Redeemable Convertible Preferred Units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“Series 1 CPOP Units”), valued at $27.4 million, plus the payment of certain closing costs, including $0.7 million of closing costs typically attributable to the Seller.
The transaction was priced based upon a common stock price of $31.56, equal to the trailing 30-day average closing price of our common stock as of the letter of intent date (the “Average Value”). Holders of Series 1 CPOP Units, when and as authorized by the Company as general partner of the Operating Partnership, are entitled to cumulative cash distributions at the rate of 4.43937% per annum of the $45.50952 per unit liquidation preference (a 44.2% conversion premium to the Average Value described above), payable quarterly in arrears on or about the last day of March, June, September and December of each year, beginning on June 28, 2019. The holders of Series 1 CPOP Units are entitled to receive the liquidation preference, which is $45.50952 per unit or approximately $27.0 million in the aggregate for all of the Series 1 CPOP Units, before the holders of OP Units in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Operating Partnership.
The Series 1 CPOP Units are convertible (i) at the option of the holder anytime from time to time (the “Holder Conversion Right”), or (ii) at the option of the Operating Partnership, at any time on or after April 10, 2024 (the “Company Conversion Right”), in each case, into OP Units on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment to eliminate fractional units or to the extent that there are any accrued and unpaid distributions on the Series 1 CPOP Units. As noted above, investors who own OP Units have the right to cause our Operating Partnership to redeem any or all of their units in our Operating Partnership for an amount of cash per unit equal to the then current market value of one share of common stock, or, at our election, shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis (the “Subsequent Redemption Right”).
The Series 1 CPOP Units rank senior to the Operating Partnership’s OP Units, on parity with the Operating Partnership’s 5.875% series A and series B cumulative redeemable preferred units and 5.625% series C cumulative redeemable preferred units and with any future class or series of partnership interest of the Operating Partnership expressly designated as ranking on parity with the Series 1 CPOP Units, and junior to any other class or series of partnership interest of the Operating Partnership expressly designated as ranking senior to the Series 1 CPOP Units.
Pursuant to relevant accounting guidance, we analyzed the Series 1 CPOP Units for any embedded derivatives that should be bifurcated and accounted for separately and also considered the conditions that would require classification of the Series 1 CPOP Units in temporary equity versus permanent equity. In carrying out our analyses, we evaluated the key features of the Series 1 CPOP Units including the right to discretionary distributions, the Holder Conversion Right, the Company Conversion Right and the Subsequent Redemption Right to determine whether we control the actions or events necessary to issue the maximum number of shares that could be required to be delivered under the share settlement if the Series 1 CPOP Units are converted into shares of our common stock (subsequent to conversion into OP Units). Based on the results of our analyses, we concluded that (i) none of the embedded features of the Series 1 CPOP Units require bifurcation and separate accounting, and (ii) the Series 1 CPOP Units met the criteria to be classified within equity, and accordingly are presented as noncontrolling interests within permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheet.
Private REIT Portfolio Preferred Stock
On April 11, 2016, we entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) to acquire a private real estate investment trust (the “private REIT”) that owned a portfolio of nine industrial properties totaling approximately 1.5 million rentable square feet (the “REIT Portfolio”) from a third-party seller in exchange for approximately $191.0 million in cash, exclusive of closing costs and credits (the “REIT Portfolio Acquisition”). On April 15, 2016, pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, we consummated the transaction. As part of the REIT Portfolio Acquisition, we acquired 100% of the private REIT’s common stock and 575 of 700 issued and outstanding shares of the private REIT’s 12.5% cumulative non-voting preferred stock. The remaining 125 shares of preferred stock that were not immediately redeemed by us, were classified as noncontrolling interests in our consolidated balance sheets, with a balance equal to its liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, or an aggregate liquidation preference of $125,000.

F- 37



On June 22, 2017, we adopted a plan of liquidation and dissolution of the private REIT, and on December 31, 2017, we completed the liquidation of the private REIT, by distributing all assets to the Operating Partnership. As part of the liquidation process, we paid a liquidating distribution of $1,000 per share, or an aggregate liquidating distribution of $125,000, as payment in full for the redemption of the remaining 125 shares of preferred stock not held by us.

Dividends
Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of dividends to stockholders, may differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes due to the differences for federal income tax purposes in the treatment of loss on extinguishment of debt, revenue recognition and compensation expense and in the basis of depreciable assets and estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation expense.

Incentive Award Plan
Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Award Plan
On June 11, 2018, our stockholders approved the Amended and Restated Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. and Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. 2013 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”), superseding and replacing the Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. and Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. 2013 Incentive Award Plan (the “Prior Plan”). Pursuant to the Plan, we may continue to make grants of stock options, restricted stock, dividend equivalents, stock payments, restricted stock units, performance shares, LTIP units of partnership interest in our Operating Partnership (“LTIP units”), performance units in our Operating Partnership (“Performance Units”), and other stock based and cash awards to our non-employee directors, employees and consultants.
The Plan is administered by our board of directors with respect to awards to non-employee directors and by our compensation committee with respect to other participants, each of which may delegate its duties and responsibilities to committees of our directors and/or officers (collectively the “plan administrator”), subject to certain limitations. The plan administrator sets the terms and conditions of all awards under the Plan, including any vesting and vesting acceleration conditions.  
    The aggregate number of shares of our common stock, LTIP units and Performance Units that may be issued or transferred pursuant to the Plan is 1,770,000 plus any shares that have not been issued under the Prior Plan, including shares subject to outstanding awards under the Prior Plan that are not issued or delivered to a participant for any reason or that are forfeited by a participant prior to vesting. As of December 31, 2019, a total of 1,267,576 shares of common stock, LTIP units and Performance Units remain available for issuance. Shares and units granted under the Plan may be authorized but unissued shares or units, or, if authorized by the board of directors, shares purchased in the open market. If an award under the Plan is forfeited, expires, or is settled for cash, any shares or units subject to such award will generally be available for future awards.
LTIP Units and Performance Units
LTIP units and Performance Units are each a class of limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership. Initially, LTIP units and Performance Units do not have full parity with OP Units with respect to liquidating distributions. However, upon the occurrence of certain events more fully described in the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement (“book-up events”), the LTIP units and Performance Units can over time achieve full parity with the common units for all purposes. If such parity is reached, vested LTIP units and vested Performance Units may be converted into an equal number of OP Units, and, upon conversion, enjoy all rights of OP Units. LTIP units, whether vested or not, receive the same quarterly per-unit distributions as OP Units, which equal the per-share distributions on shares of our common stock. Performance Units that have not vested receive a quarterly per-unit distribution equal to 10% of the per-unit distribution paid on OP Units.
On December 16, 2019, the compensation committee awarded 120,243 LTIP units to Messrs. Howard Schwimmer, Michael S. Frankel, Adeel Khan and David Lanzer (collectively, the “executives”) that are subject to time-based vesting conditions (the “2019 LTIP Award”) and 294,994 Performance Units that are partially subject to market-based vesting conditions and partially subject to performance-based vesting conditions (the “2019 Performance Award”).
On December 15, 2018, the compensation committee awarded 132,875 LTIP units to the executives that are subject to time-based vesting conditions (the “2018 LTIP Award”) and 204,517 Performance Units that are partially subject to market-based vesting conditions and partially subject to performance-based vesting conditions (the “2018 Performance Award”).
On December 15, 2017, the compensation committee awarded 122,631 LTIP units to the executives that are subject to time-based vesting requirements (the “2017 LTIP Award”) and 188,250 Performance Units that are subject to market-based vesting conditions (the “2017 Market Performance Award”).

F- 39



2019, 2018, and 2017 LTIP Unit Awards
Each of the 2019, 2018 and 2017 LTIP Awards are scheduled to vest one-third in equal installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. Each award is subject to each executive’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date, and subject to earlier vesting upon certain termination of employment or a change in control event, as described in the award agreements. Compensation expense will be recognized using the accelerated expense attribution method, with each vesting tranche valued as a separate award. The total grant date fair value of each annual LTIP award is based on the Company’s most recent closing stock price preceding the grant and the application of a discount for post-vesting restrictions and uncertainty regarding the occurrence and timing of book-up events. The following table summarizes these fair valuation assumptions and the grant date fair value of each annual LTIP award:

2019, 2018 and 2017 Performance Unit Awards
Each of the 2019, 2018 and 2017 Performance Awards are comprised of a number of units designated as base units and a number of units designated as distribution equivalents, which are further described below:
Absolute TSR Base Units - base units that will vest based on varying levels of the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) over the three -year performance period of an award. TSR is measured as the appreciation in the price per share of a company’s common stock plus dividends paid during the three-year performance period, assuming the reinvestment in common stock of all dividends paid during the performance period.
Relative TSR Base Units - base units that will vest based on the Company’s TSR as compared to the TSR percentage of a selected peer group of companies over the three-year performance period.
FFO Per-Share Base Units - base units that will vest based on the Company’s FFO per share growth over the three-year performance period.
Distribution Equivalent Units - Performance Units that have not vested will receive 10% of the distributions paid on OP units. The remaining 90% of the distributions will accrue (assuming the reinvestment in common stock of these distributions) during the three-year performance period and a portion will be paid out as distribution equivalent units based upon the number of base units that ultimately vest.
The following table summarizes the total number of base units and distribution equivalent units awarded to the executives for each of the Performance Unit awards:

If the Company’s TSR percentage, peer group relative performance or FFO per share growth falls between the levels specified in the tables above, the percentage of Absolute TSR Base Units, Relative TSR Base Units and FFO Per-Share Base Units that vest will be determined using straight-line interpolation between such levels.
Fair Value of Awards With Market-Based Vesting Conditions
The grant date fair value of each of the 2019, 2018 and 2017 Market Performance Awards is based on the sum of the following: (1) the present value of the expected payoff to the vested absolute and relative base units, (2) the present value of the 10% portion of the distribution expected to be paid during the three-year performance period, and (3) the present value of the distribution equivalent units expected to be awarded at the end of the three-year performance period. The grant date fair value of each of these awards was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model, which uses 100,000 trial simulations, to estimate the probability that the market conditions, TSR on both an absolute and relative basis, will be achieved over the three-year performance period.
The following table summarizes the assumptions we used in the Monte Carlo simulations and the grant date fair value of the awards with market-based vesting conditions.

For the 2019 Market Performance Award, the median and average expected share price volatilities for the peer group companies are 21.0% and 24.4%, respectively. For the 2018 Market Performance Award, the median and average expected share price volatilities for the peer group companies are 23.0% and 27.1%, respectively. For the 2017 Market Performance Award, the median and average expected share price volatilities for the peer group companies are 21.0% and 25.3%, respectively.
The expected share price volatilities are based on a mix of the historical and implied volatilities of the Company and the peer group companies. The expected dividend yield is based on our average historical dividend yield and our dividend yield as of the valuation date for each award. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury note yields matching the three-year time period of the performance period.
Compensation cost for the awards with market-based vesting conditions will be recognized ratably over the requisite service period, regardless of whether the TSR performance levels are achieved and any awards ultimately vest. Compensation expense will only be reversed if the holder of an award with market-based vesting conditions forfeits the award by leaving the employment of the Company prior to vesting.
Fair Value of Awards with Performance-Based Vesting Conditions
The grant date fair value of the 2019 FFO Per-Share Award is $2.0 million, which is based on the Company’s closing stock price on the grant date ($45.74 on December 16, 2019) and the achievement of FFO per-share performance at the target level. The grant date fair value of the 2018 FFO Per-Share Award is $2.0 million, which is based on the Company’s closing stock price preceding the grant date ($31.42 on December 14, 2018) and the achievement of FFO per-share performance at the maximum level.
Compensation cost for the 2019 and 2018 FFO Per-Share Awards will reflect the number of units that are expected to vest based on the probable outcome of the performance condition and will be adjusted to reflect those units that ultimately vest at the end of the three-year performance period.
2016 and 2015 Performance Award Vestings
On December 28, 2019, the three-year performance period for the 2016 performance award ended, and the following Performance Units vested: (i) 100% of the 74,000 Absolute TSR Base Units based on the Company achieving a TSR greater than 50%, the maximum level, (ii) 100% of the 111,000 Relative TSR Base Units based on the Company finishing in the 75th or greater percentile, the maximum level, of the peer group of companies included in the SNL U.S. Equity REIT Index (with respect to entities with an implied market capitalization of $1 billion to $2 billion), and (iii) 10,628 distribution equivalents, for a total of 195,628 vested Performance Units. On December 28, 2019, we canceled the remaining 3,372 distribution equivalents that did not vest.
On December 14, 2018, the three-year performance period for the 2015 performance award ended, and the following Performance Units vested: (i) 100% of the 115,600 Absolute TSR Base Units based on the Company achieving a TSR greater than 50%, the maximum level, (ii) 100% of the 173,399 Relative TSR Base Units based on the Company finishing in the 75th or greater percentile, the maximum level, of the peer group of companies included in the SNL U.S. Equity REIT Index (with respect to entities with an implied market capitalization of $500 million to $1 billion), and (iii) 18,987 distribution equivalents, for a total of 307,986 vested Performance Units. On December 14, 2018, we canceled the remaining 8,012 distribution equivalents that did not vest.

Restricted Common Stock
Shares of our restricted common stock generally may not be sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in any manner other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, subject to the consent or the plan administrator, a domestic relations order, unless and until all restrictions applicable to such shares have lapsed. Such restrictions generally expire upon vesting. Shares of our restricted common stock are participating securities and have full voting rights and nonforfeitable rights to dividends.
The compensation committee has periodically awarded grants of restricted common stock to various employees of the Company, other than executives, for the purpose of attracting or retaining the services of these key individuals. These grants typically vest in four equal, annual installments on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of grant, subject to the employee’s continued service.  During the year ended December 31, 2019, we granted 97,527 shares of restricted common stock to non-executive employees. The grant date fair value of these awards was $3.4 million based on the closing share price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, which ranged from $34.20 to $47.90 per share.
In accordance with the Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. Non-Employee Director Compensation Program, each year on the date of the annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders, we grant shares of restricted common stock to each of our non-employee directors who are re-elected for another year of service.  These awards vest on the earlier of (i) the date of the annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders next following the grant date and (ii) the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to each non-employee director’s continued service. During the year ended December 31, 2019, each of our non-employee directors (other than Mr. Ziman) were granted 2,264 shares of restricted common stock with a grant date fair value of $85,000 and Mr. Ziman was granted 1,864 shares of restricted common stock with a grant date fair value of $70,000, based on the $37.54 closing share price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, whether paid or unpaid, are accounted for as participating securities. As such, unvested shares of restricted stock, unvested LTIP Units and unvested Performance Units are considered participating securities. Participating securities are included in the computation of basic EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method determines EPS for each class of common stock and each participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities are also included in the computation of diluted EPS using the more dilutive of the two-class method or treasury stock method for unvested shares of restricted stock and LTIP Units, and by determining if certain market conditions have been met at the reporting date for unvested Performance Units.
The effect of including unvested shares of restricted stock and unvested LTIP Units using the treasury stock method was excluded from our calculation of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding – diluted, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. 
Performance Units, which are subject to vesting based on the Company achieving certain TSR levels over a three-year performance period, are included as contingently issuable shares in the calculation of diluted EPS when TSR has been achieved at or above the threshold levels specified in the award agreements, assuming the reporting period is the end of the performance period, and the effect is dilutive.
We also consider the effect of other potentially dilutive securities, including the Series 1 CPOP Units and OP Units, which may be redeemed for shares of our common stock under certain circumstances, and include them in our computation of diluted EPS when their inclusion is dilutive.

Dividends Declared
On February 10, 2020, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.215 per share of common stock and a quarterly cash distribution in the amount of $0.215 per OP Unit, to be paid on April 15, 2020, to holders of record as of March 31, 2020. Also on February 10, 2020, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.367188 per share of the Series A Preferred Stock, $0.367188 per share of the Series B Preferred Stock, $0.351563 per share of the Series C Preferred Stock and $0.505085 per Series 1 CPOP Unit to be paid on March 31, 2020, to holders of record as of March 13, 2020.
Third Amended and Restated Credit Facility
On February 13, 2020, we amended our existing $450 million Credit Facility by entering into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), which provides for a $600.0 million senior unsecured credit facility, comprised of a $500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Amended Revolver") and a $100.0 million unsecured term loan facility (the "Amended Term Loan Facility"). The Amended Revolver is scheduled to mature on February 13, 2024, and has two six-month extension options available, and the Amended Term Loan Facility is scheduled to mature on February 14, 2022. Subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, we may request additional lender commitments up to an additional aggregate $900.0 million, which may be comprised of additional revolving commitments under the Amended Revolver, an increase to the Amended Term Loan Facility, additional term loan tranches or any combination of the foregoing.
     Interest on the Amended Credit Agreement is generally to be paid based upon, at our option, either (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin that is based upon our leverage ratio or (ii) the Base Rate (which is defined as the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the administrative agent’s prime rate or (c) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin that is based on our leverage ratio. The margins for the Amended Revolver range in amount from 1.05% to 1.50% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.05% to 0.50% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on our leverage ratio. The margins for

F- 46



the Amended Term Loan Facility range in amount from 1.20% to 1.70% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.20% to 0.70% for Base Rate-based loans, depending on our leverage ratio.
     If we attain one additional investment grade rating by one or more of S&P or Moody’s to complement our current investment grade Fitch rating, we may elect to convert the pricing structure under the Amended Credit Agreement to be based on such rating. In that event, the margins for the Amended Revolver will range in amount from 0.725% to 1.40% for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.45% for Base Rate-based loans, depending on such rating. The margins for the Amended Term Loan Facility will range in amount from 0.85% to 1.65% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.65% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on such rating.
     In addition to the interest payable on amounts outstanding under the Amended Revolver, we are required to pay an applicable facility fee, based upon our leverage ratio, on each lender's commitment amount under the Amended Revolver, regardless of usage. The applicable facility fee will range in amount from 0.15% to 0.30% per annum, depending on our leverage ratio. In the event that we convert the pricing structure to be based on an investment-grade rating, the applicable facility fee will range in amount from 0.125% to 0.30% per annum, depending on such rating.

Note: As of December 31, 2019, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes of investments in real estate was approximately $3.7 billion.


F- 57



(1)
Costs capitalized subsequent to acquisition are net of the write-off of fully depreciated assets and include construction in progress.
(2)
During 2009, we recorded impairment charges totaling $19.6 million in continuing operations (of which $9.9 million relates to properties still owned by us) to write down our investments in real estate to fair value. Of the $9.9 million, $4.5 million is included as a reduction of “Land” in the table above, with the remaining $5.4 million included as a reduction of “Buildings and Improvements”.
(3)
The depreciable life for buildings and improvements ranges from 10-30 years for buildings, 5-20 years for site improvements, and the shorter of the estimated useful life or respective lease term for tenant improvements.
(4)
These six properties secure a term loan that had a balance of $58.5 million as of December 31, 2019.
(5)
Includes unamortized discount of $0.1 million.
(6)

On July 3, 2019, we acquired the fee title to the parcel of land located at 3340 North San Fernando Road in Los Angeles, California for a contract price of $3.0 million. Prior to the acquisition, we leased the parcel of land from the seller under a long-term ground lease. The $115 thousand adjustment to the carrying value of the land is the difference between the purchase price of the land parcel and the carrying amount of the ground lease liability immediately before the acquisition.
