NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Strategic Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on September 18, 2008, as a Maryland corporation. Effective August 22, 2013, the Company changed its name from TNP Strategic Retail Trust, Inc. to Strategic Realty Trust, Inc. The Company believes it qualifies as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), and has elected REIT status beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2009, the year in which the Company began material operations.
Since the Company’s inception, its business has been managed by an external advisor. The Company has no direct employees and all management and administrative personnel responsible for conducting the Company’s business are employed by its advisor. Currently, the Company is externally managed and advised by SRT Advisor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Advisor”) pursuant to an advisory agreement with the Advisor (the “Advisory Agreement”) initially executed on August 10, 2013, and subsequently renewed every year through 2020. The current term of the Advisory Agreement terminates on August 9, 2021. The Advisor is an affiliate of Glenborough, LLC (together with its affiliates, “Glenborough”), a privately held full-service real estate investment and management company focused on the acquisition, management and leasing of commercial properties.
Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through Strategic Realty Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “OP”). During the Company’s initial public offering (“Offering”), as the Company accepted subscriptions for shares of its common stock, it transferred substantially all of the net proceeds of the Offering to the OP as a capital contribution. The Company is the sole general partner of the OP. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company owned 98.0% and 98.0%, respectively, of the limited partnership interests in the OP.
The Company’s principal demand for funds has been for the acquisition of real estate assets, the payment of operating expenses, interest on outstanding indebtedness, the payment of distributions to stockholders, and investments in development of properties. Substantially all of the proceeds of the completed Offering have been used to fund investments in real properties and other real estate-related assets, for payment of operating expenses, for payment of interest, for payment of various fees and expenses, such as acquisition fees and management fees, and for payment of distributions to stockholders. The Company’s available capital resources, cash and cash equivalents on hand and sources of liquidity are currently limited. The Company expects its future cash needs will be funded using cash from operations, future asset sales, debt financing and the proceeds to the Company from any sale of equity that it may conduct in the future.
The Company invests in and manages a portfolio of income-producing retail properties, located in the United States, real estate-owning entities and real estate-related assets. The Company has invested directly, and indirectly through joint ventures, in a portfolio of income-producing retail properties located throughout the United States, with a focus on grocery anchored multi-tenant retail centers, including neighborhood, community and lifestyle shopping centers, multi-tenant shopping centers and free standing single-tenant retail properties. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company invested, through joint ventures, in two significant retail projects under development.
As of June 30, 2020, in addition to the development projects, the Company’s portfolio of properties was comprised of 7 properties with approximately 43,000 rentable square feet of retail space located in two states, as well as an improved land parcel. As of June 30, 2020, the rentable space at the Company’s retail properties was 79% leased.
COVID-19 Pandemic
Currently, one of the most significant risks and uncertainties facing the Company, the retail industry, the real estate industry and the economy generally is the potential adverse effect of the ongoing public health crisis of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. The Company continues to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of its business, including how the pandemic is impacting its tenants and business partners. Many of the Company’s tenants have requested rent deferral or rent abatement as a result of the pandemic. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, some of the tenants, that had requested rent relief, resumed paying full or partial rent. As such, the Company is unable to predict the full impact that the pandemic will have on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s operations and those of its tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. Refer to Note 5, “Leases” for additional information.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the instructions to Form 10-K and Regulation S-X.
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP, their direct and indirect owned subsidiaries, and the accounts of joint ventures that are determined to be variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included.
The Company evaluates the need to consolidate joint ventures and variable interest entities based on standards set forth in ASC Topic 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). In determining whether the Company has a controlling interest in a joint venture or a variable interest entity and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the partners/members, as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company held variable interests in two variable interest entities and consolidated those entities. Refer to Note 4. “Variable Interest Entities” for additional information.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents represent current bank accounts and other bank deposits free of encumbrances and having maturity dates of three months or less from the respective dates of deposit. The Company limits cash investments to financial institutions with high credit standing; therefore, the Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk in cash.
Restricted cash includes escrow accounts for real property taxes, insurance, capital expenditures and tenant improvements, debt service and leasing costs held by lenders.
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown on the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows (amounts in thousands):
June 30, 2020 | December 31, 2019 | ||||||
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 4,295 | $ | 6,119 | |||
Restricted cash | 796 | 1,122 | |||||
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | $ | 5,091 | $ | 7,241 |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The FASB issued the following ASUs, which could have potential impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements:
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 requires a financial asset, measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. ASU 2016-13 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Adjustments resulting from adopting ASU 2016-13 shall be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842) Effective Dates (“ASU 2019-10”). ASU 2019-10 extended the mandatory effective date for smaller reporting companies to beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of Financial Instruments - Credit Losses is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS
Sale of Properties
On February 10, 2020, the Company consummated the disposition of Topaz Marketplace, located in Hesperia, California, for approximately $10.5 million in cash. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale to repay the line of credit in its entirety. The disposition of Topaz Marketplace resulted in a gain of approximately $0.9 million, which was included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company retained a residual land parcel, that is an improved drive-thru pad.
Since the sale of this property does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, the results of operations of this property were not reported as discontinued operations in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of this property to repay the outstanding balance on its line of credit.

5. LEASES
Operating Leases
The Company’s real estate properties are leased to tenants under operating leases for which the terms and expirations vary. As of June 30, 2020, the leases at the Company’s properties, excluding properties classified as held for sale, have remaining terms (excluding options to extend) of up to 14.3 years with a weighted-average remaining term (excluding options to extend) of approximately 7.7 years. The leases may have provisions to extend the lease agreements, options for early termination after paying a specified penalty, rights of first refusal to purchase the property at competitive market rates, and other terms and conditions as negotiated. The Company retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to tenants. Generally, upon the execution of a lease, the Company requires security deposits from tenants in the form of a cash deposit and/or a letter of credit. Amounts required as security deposits vary depending upon the terms of the respective leases and the creditworthiness of the tenant, but generally are not significant amounts. Therefore, exposure to credit risk exists to the extent that a receivable from a tenant exceeds the amount of its security deposit. Security deposits received in cash related to tenant leases are included in other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and totaled approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, certain of the Company’s tenants requested rent relief as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. These tenants account for approximately 95% of the Company’s annualized rents. Not all tenant requests resulted in modified agreements nor did the Company forgo its contractual rights under its lease agreements. To date only a small percent of the requests for rent relief resulted in modified agreements, however the Company is reviewing requests on a case by case basis and continues to monitor and communicate with its commercial tenants to assess their needs and ability to make either full or partial rent payments.
As of June 30, 2020, approximately $0.4 million of rental income due and payable was outstanding. The Company collected approximately $45 thousand, or 12%, of the outstanding balance in July 2020. Additionally, approximately $50 thousand of rental income earned and recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2020, was deferred and is expected to be collected in future periods.
As of June 30, 2020, the future minimum rental income from the Company’s properties under non-cancelable operating leases, was as follows (amounts in thousands):

Multi-Property Secured Financing
On December 24, 2019, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement (the “SRT Loan Agreement”) with PFP Holding Company, LLC (the “SRT Lender”) for a non-recourse secured loan (the “SRT Loan”).
The SRT Loan is secured by first deeds of trust on the Company’s five San Francisco assets (Fulton Shops, 8 Octavia, 400 Grove, 450 Hayes and 388 Fulton Street) as well as the Company’s Silverlake Collection located in Los Angeles. Proceeds from the SRT Loan were used by the Company to pay down the Company’s credit facility and in connection with such payment, the properties referenced above were released from liens related to that credit facility. The SRT Loan matures on January 9, 2023. The Company has an option to extend the term of the loan for two additional twelve-month periods, subject to the satisfaction of certain covenants and conditions contained in the SRT Loan Agreement. The Company has the right to prepay the SRT Loan in whole at any time or in part from time to time, subject to the payment of yield maintenance payments if such prepayment occurs in the first 18 months of the loan term, calculated through the 18th monthly payment date, as well as certain expenses, costs or liabilities potentially incurred by the SRT Lender as a result of the prepayment and subject to certain other conditions contained in the loan documents. Individual properties may be released from the SRT Loan collateral in connection with bona fide third-party sales, subject to compliance with certain covenants and conditions contained in the SRT Loan Agreement. Any prepayment or repayment on or before the first 12 months of the loan term in connection with a bona fide third-party sale of a property securing the SRT Loan shall only require the payment of yield maintenance payments calculated through the 12th monthly payment date.
As of June 30, 2020, the SRT Loan had a principal balance of approximately $18.0 million. The SRT Loan is a floating LIBOR rate loan which bears interest at 30-day LIBOR (with a floor of 1.50%) plus 2.80%. The default rate is equal to 5% above the rate that otherwise would be in effect. Monthly payments are interest-only with the entire principal balance and all outstanding interest due at maturity.
Pursuant to the SRT Loan, the Company must comply with certain matters contained in the loan documents including but not limited to, (i) requirements to deliver audited and unaudited financial statements, SEC filings, tax returns, pro forma budgets, and quarterly compliance certificates, and (ii) minimum limits on the Company’s liquidity and tangible net worth. The SRT Loan contains customary covenants, including, without limitation, covenants with respect to maintenance of properties and insurance, compliance with laws and environmental matters, covenants limiting or prohibiting the creation of liens, and transactions with affiliates. At June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in effect as of that date.
In connection with the SRT Loan, the Company executed customary non-recourse carveout and environmental guaranties, together with limited additional assurances with regard to the condominium structures of the San Francisco assets.
Line of Credit
On February 10, 2020, the Company used proceeds from the sale of Topaz Marketplace to repay the line of credit in its entirety. The line of credit expired of its own accord on February 15, 2020, with no balance outstanding. As part of the payoff, Shops at Turkey Creek was released from the line of credit.

(unaudited)
The Company’s line of credit was a revolving credit facility with an initial maximum aggregate commitment of $30.0 million. Effective February 15, 2017, the Company’s line of credit was refinanced to increase the maximum aggregate commitment under the credit facility from $30.0 million to $60.0 million. Effective November 7, 2019, the Company elected to permanently reduce the maximum aggregate commitment under its line of credit from $60.0 million to $30.0 million. All other terms of the credit facility remained the same. Effective January 8, 2020, the Company elected to permanently reduce the maximum aggregate commitment under its line of credit from $30.0 million to $10.5 million. Other than changes to the line of credit’s maximum aggregate commitment, all other terms of the credit facility remained the same throughout the life of the credit facility. The credit facility matured on February 15, 2020.
Each loan made pursuant to the credit facility was either a LIBOR loan or a base rate loan, at the election of the Company, plus an applicable margin, as defined. Monthly payments were interest only with the entire principal balance and all outstanding interest due at maturity. The Company paid the lender an unused commitment fee, quarterly in arrears, which was accrued at 0.30% per annum, if the usage under the Company’s line of credit was less than or equal to 50% of the line of credit amount, and 0.20% per annum if the usage under the Company’s line of credit was greater than 50% of the line of credit amount. The Company was providing a guaranty of all of its obligations under the Company’s line of credit.
Loans Secured by Properties Under Development
On May 7, 2019, the Company refinanced and repaid its financing from Loan Oak Fund, LLC with a new construction loan from ReadyCap Commercial, LLC (the “Lender”) (the “Wilshire Construction Loan”). As of June 30, 2020, the Wilshire Construction Loan had a principal balance of approximately $11.4 million, with future funding availability up to a total of approximately $13.9 million, and bears an interest rate of 1-month LIBOR plus an interest margin of 4.25% per annum, payable monthly. The Wilshire Loan is scheduled to mature on May 10, 2022, with options to extend for two additional twelve-month periods, subject to certain conditions as stated in the loan agreement. The Wilshire Construction Loan is secured by a first Deed of Trust on the Wilshire Property. The Company executed a guaranty that guaranties that the loan interest reserve amounts are kept in compliance with the terms of the loan agreement. The Lender also required that a principal in the upstream owner of the Company’s joint venture partner in the Wilshire Joint Venture (the “Guarantor”), guarantees performance of borrower’s obligations under the loan agreement with respect to the completion of capital improvements to the property. The Company executed an Indemnity Agreement in favor of the Guarantor against liability under that completion guaranty except to the extent caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct, as well as for liabilities incurred under the Environmental Indemnity Agreement executed by the Guarantor in favor of the Lender. The Company used working capital funds of approximately $3.1 million to repay the difference between the Wilshire Construction Loan initial advance and the prior loan, to pay transaction costs, as well as to fund certain required interest and construction reserves.
On October 29, 2018, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Lone Oak Fund, LLC (the “Sunset & Gardner Loan”). The Sunset & Gardner Loan has a principal balance of approximately $8.7 million, and bears an interest rate of 6.9% per annum. The Sunset & Gardner Loan was scheduled to mature on October 31, 2019. The Company extended the Sunset & Gardner Loan for an additional twelve-month period under the same terms, with an interest rate of 6.5% per annum. The new maturity date is October 31, 2020. The Company negotiated an additional one year extension with the lender. Refer to footnote 13, “Subsequent Events” for additional information. The Sunset & Gardner Loan is secured by a first Deed of Trust on the Sunset & Gardner Property.
The following is a schedule of future principal payments for all of the Company’s notes payable outstanding as of June 30, 2020 (amounts in thousands):
Remainder of 2020 | $ | 8,700 | |

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company incurred and expensed approximately $66 thousand of interest costs, which consisted of amortization of deferred financing costs. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company incurred and expensed approximately $0.1 million of interest costs, which primarily consisted of amortization of deferred financing costs. Also during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred and capitalized approximately $0.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of interest expense related to the variable interest entities, which

included amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately $80 thousand and $0.2 million, respectively, for each period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company incurred and expensed approximately $0.2 million of interest costs, which consisted of amortization of deferred financing costs. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company incurred and expensed approximately $0.3 million of interest costs, which primarily consisted of amortization of deferred financing costs. Also during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred and capitalized approximately $1.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of interest expense related to the variable interest entities which included amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, for each period.
As of both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, interest expense payable was approximately $0.2 million, including an amount related to the variable interest entities of approximately $0.1 million, for each period.
8. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES
Certain financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company determines fair value using the following hierarchy:
• | Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities; |
• | Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and |
• | Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available for inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement. |
The Company believes the total carrying values reflected on its consolidated balance sheets for cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, amounts due to affiliates, mortgage loan and construction loan secured by properties under development, and the Company’s multi-property secured financing, reasonably approximated their fair values based on their nature, terms, and interest rates that approximate current market rates at June 30, 2020.
As part of the Company’s ongoing evaluation of the Company’s real estate portfolio, the Company estimates the fair value of its investments in real estate by obtaining outside independent appraisals on all of the operating properties. The appraised values are compared with the carrying values of its real estate portfolio to determine if there are indications of impairment.
For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not record any impairment losses.
9. EQUITY
Share Redemption Program
On April 1, 2015, the Company’s board of directors approved the reinstatement of the share redemption program (which had been suspended since January 15, 2013) and adopted the Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program (the “SRP”). Under the SRP, only shares submitted for repurchase in connection with the death or “qualifying disability” (as defined in the SRP) of a stockholder are eligible for repurchase by the Company. Under the current SRP, as amended to date, the number of shares to be redeemed is limited to the lesser of (i) a total of $3.8 million for redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death and a total of $1.2 million for redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s qualifying disability, and (ii) 5% of the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the prior calendar year. Share repurchases pursuant to the SRP are made at the sole discretion of the Company. The Company reserves the right to reject any redemption request for any reason or no reason or to amend or terminate the share redemption program at any time subject to the notice requirements in the SRP.
The redemption price for shares that are redeemed is 100% of the Company’s most recent estimated net asset value per share as of the applicable redemption date. A redemption request must be made within one year after the stockholder’s death or qualifying disability.
The SRP provides that any request to redeem less than $5,000 worth of shares will be treated as a request to redeem all of the stockholder’s shares. If the Company cannot honor all redemption requests received in a given quarter, all requests, including death and qualifying disability redemptions, will be honored on a pro rata basis. If the Company does not completely satisfy a redemption request in one quarter, it will treat the unsatisfied portion as a request for redemption in the next quarter when funds are available for redemption, unless the request is withdrawn. The Company may increase or decrease the amount
15
STRATEGIC REALTY TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)
of funding available for redemptions under the SRP on ten business days’ notice to stockholders. Shares submitted for redemption during any quarter will be redeemed on the penultimate business day of such quarter. The record date for quarterly distributions has historically been and is expected to continue to be the last business day of each quarter; therefore, shares that are redeemed during any quarter are expected to be redeemed prior to the record date and thus would not be eligible to receive the distribution declared for such quarter.
In order to preserve cash in light of the uncertainty relating to the duration of shelter-in-place orders and the economic impact of COVID-19 on the Company, by unanimous written consent executed on April 21, 2020, the board of directors approved the suspension of the SRP, which offered redemption opportunities only in connection with a stockholder’s death or qualifying disability.
Under the SRP, the board of directors may amend, suspend, or terminate the SRP with 30 days’ notice to the Company’s stockholders. The Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on April 21, 2020 with the SEC, served as such required notice and therefore the suspension of the SRP became effective on May 21, 2020. The SRP will remain suspended and no further redemptions will be made until the board of directors approves the resumption of the SRP. During the suspension, the Company will continue to accept death and qualifying disability redemption filings from stockholders, but will not take any action with regard to those requests until the board of directors has elected to lift the suspension and provided the terms and conditions for any continuation of the SRP.

As stated above, cumulatively, through June 30, 2020, pursuant to the Original Share Redemption Program and the Amended and Restated SRP, the Company has redeemed 878,458 shares sold in the Offering and/or its dividend reinvestment plan for $6.2 million.
Quarterly Distributions
In order to qualify as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, to its stockholders. Some or all of the Company’s distributions have been paid, and in the future may continue to be paid from sources other than cash flows from operations. The Company’s board of directors evaluates the Company’s ability to make quarterly distributions based on the Company’s operational cash needs.
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, its impact on the economy and the related future uncertainty, on March 27, 2020, the board of directors of the Company voted to suspend the payment of any dividend for the quarter ending March 31, 2020, and to reconsider future dividend payments on a quarter by quarter basis as more information becomes available on the impact of COVID-19 and related impact to the Company. Dividend payments were not reinstated as of June 30, 2020.

10. EARNINGS PER SHARE
EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS is computed after adjusting the basic EPS computation for the effect of potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. The effect of non-vested shares, if dilutive, is computed using the treasury stock method. The Company applies the two-class method for determining EPS as its outstanding shares of non-vested restricted stock are considered participating securities as dividend payments are not forfeited even if the underlying award does not vest. There was no unvested stock as of June 30, 2020. The Company’s excess of distributions over earnings related to participating securities are shown as a reduction in income (loss) attributable to common stockholders in the Company’s computation of EPS.
The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 (amounts in thousands, except shares and per share amounts):

Acquisition Fees
Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor is entitled to receive an acquisition fee equal to 1% of (1) the cost of each investment acquired directly by the Company or (2) the Company’s allocable cost of an investment acquired pursuant to a joint venture, in each case including purchase price, acquisition expenses and any debt attributable to such investments. An acquisition fee is capitalized by the Company when the related transaction does not qualify as a business combination; otherwise an acquisition fee is expensed.
Financing Coordination Fees
Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor is entitled to receive a financing coordination fee equal to 1% of the amount made available and/or outstanding under any (1) financing obtained or assumed, directly or indirectly, by the Company or the OP and used to acquire or originate investments, or (2) the refinancing of any financing obtained or assumed, directly or indirectly, by the Company or the OP.
Asset Management Fees
Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor is entitled to receive an asset management fee equal to a monthly fee of one-twelfth (1/12th) of 0.6% of the higher of (1) aggregate cost on a GAAP basis (before non-cash reserves and depreciation) of all investments the Company owns, including any debt attributable to such investments, or (2) the fair market value of the Company’s investments (before non-cash reserves and depreciation) if the board of directors has authorized the estimate of a fair market value of the Company’s investments; provided, however, that the asset management fee will not be less than $250,000 in the aggregate during any one calendar year.

Reimbursement of Operating Expenses
The Company reimburses the Advisor for all expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor in connection with the services provided to the Company, subject to the limitation that the Company will not reimburse the Advisor for any amount by which the Company’s total operating expenses (including the asset management fee described above) at the end of the four preceding fiscal quarters exceeded the greater of (1) 2% of its average invested assets (as defined in the Company’s Articles of Amendment and Restatement (the “Charter”)); or (2) 25% of its net income (as defined in the Charter) determined without reduction for any additions to depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash expenses and excluding any gain from the sale of the Company’s assets for that period (the “2%/25% Guideline”). The Advisor is required to reimburse the Company quarterly for any amounts by which total operating expenses exceed the 2%/25% Guideline in the previous expense year that the independent directors do not approve. The Company will not reimburse the Advisor for any of its personnel costs or other overhead costs except for customary reimbursements for personnel costs under property management agreements entered into between the OP and the Advisor or its affiliates. Notwithstanding the above, the Company may reimburse the Advisor for expenses in excess of the 2%/25% Guideline if a majority of the independent directors determine that such excess expenses are justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors. Pursuant to an amendment to the Advisory Agreement entered on August 2, 2018, the board of directors, including a majority of the independent directors identified certain unusual and non-recurring factors that would justify reimbursement to the Advisor of amounts in excess of the 2%/25% Guidelines and confirmed that the Advisor would not be obligated to reimburse the Company for these excess amounts to the extent the excess was caused by such factors.
For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s total operating expenses (as defined in the Charter) did not exceed the 2%/25% Guideline.
Property Management Fees
Under the property management agreements between the Company and Glenborough, Glenborough is entitled to receive property management fees calculated at a maximum of up to 4% of the properties’ gross revenue. The property management agreements with Glenborough have been renewed for an additional 12 months, beginning on August 10, 2019. Property management agreements with Glenborough automatically renew every year, unless expressly terminated.
Disposition Fees
Under the Advisory Agreement, if the Advisor or its affiliates provide a substantial amount of services, as determined by the Company’s independent directors, in connection with the sale of a real property, the Advisor or its affiliates may be paid disposition fees up to 50% of a customary and competitive real estate commission, but not to exceed 3% of the contract sales price of each property sold.
Leasing Fees
Under the property management agreements, Glenborough is entitled to receive a separate fee for the leases of new tenants, and for expansions, extensions and renewals of existing tenants in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged by similarly situated parties rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties.
Legal Leasing Fees
Under the property management agreements, Glenborough is entitled to receive a market-based legal leasing fee for the negotiation and production of new leases, renewals, and amendments.
Construction Management Fees
In connection with the construction or repair in or about a property, the property manager is responsible for coordinating and facilitating the planning and the performance of all construction and is entitled to receive a fee equal to 5% of the hard costs for the project in question.
12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Economic Dependency
The Company is dependent on the Advisor and its affiliates for certain services that are essential to the Company, including the identification, evaluation, negotiation, purchase, and disposition of real estate and real estate-related investments, management of the daily operations of the Company’s real estate and real estate-related investment portfolio, and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that the Advisor is unable to provide such services to the Company, the Company will be required to obtain such services from other sources.

Environmental
As an owner of real estate, the Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state and local governments. The Company is not aware of any environmental liability that could have a material adverse effect on its condensed consolidated financial condition or results of operations. However, changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations, the uses and conditions of properties in the vicinity of the Company’s properties, the activities of its tenants and other environmental conditions of which the Company is unaware with respect to the properties could result in future environmental liabilities.
13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 31, 2020, the Company extended the Sunset & Gardner Loan for an additional twelve-month period under the same terms, with an interest rate of 7.3% per annum. The new maturity date is October 31, 2021.
The Company evaluates subsequent events up until the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and the other unaudited financial data included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on March 18, 2020, which we refer to herein as our “2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.”
As used herein, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” and “Company” refer to Strategic Realty Trust, Inc., and, as required by context, Strategic Realty Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, which we refer to as our “operating partnership” or “OP”, and to their respective subsidiaries. References to “shares” and “our common stock” refer to the shares of our common stock.
Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts (including any statements concerning investment objectives, other plans and objectives of management for future operations or economic performance, or assumptions or forecasts related thereto) are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements are only predictions. We caution that forward-looking statements are not guarantees. Actual events or our investments and results of operations could differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “should,” “expect,” “could,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “predict,” “potential” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology.
The forward-looking statements included herein are based upon our current expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions and beliefs, which involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all of the risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:
• | The potential adverse effect of the ongoing public health crisis of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, or any future pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of infectious disease, on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance of the Company and its tenants, the real estate market and the global economy and financial markets. |
• | Our executive officers and certain other key real estate professionals are also officers, directors, managers, key professionals and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor. As a result, they face conflicts of interest, including conflicts created by our advisor’s compensation arrangements with us and conflicts in allocating time among us and other programs and business activities. |
• | We are uncertain of our sources for funding our future capital needs. If we cannot obtain debt or equity financing on acceptable terms, our ability to continue to acquire real properties or other real estate-related assets, fund or expand our operations and pay distributions to our stockholders will be adversely affected. |
• | We depend on tenants for our revenue and, accordingly, our revenue is dependent upon the success and economic viability of our tenants. Revenues from our properties could decrease due to a reduction in tenants (caused by factors including, but not limited to, tenant defaults, tenant insolvency, early termination of tenant leases and non-renewal of existing tenant leases) and/or lower rental rates, making it more difficult for us to meet our financial obligations, including debt service and our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. |
• | A significant portion of our assets are concentrated in one state and in urban retail properties, any adverse economic, real estate or business conditions in this geographic area or in the urban retail market could affect our operating results and our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. |
• | Our current and future investments in real estate and other real estate-related investments may be affected by unfavorable real estate market and general economic conditions, which could decrease the value of those assets and reduce the investment return to our stockholders. Revenues from our properties could decrease. Such events would |
21
make it more difficult for us to meet our debt service obligations and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.
• | Certain of our debt obligations have variable interest rates with interest and related payments that vary with the movement of LIBOR or other indices. Increases in these indices could increase the amount of our debt payments and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. |
All forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risks identified in Part I, Item 1A of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Any of the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements included herein could be inaccurate, and undue reliance should not be placed upon on any forward-looking statements included herein. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the risk that actual results will differ materially from the expectations expressed herein will increase with the passage of time. Moreover, you should interpret many of the risks identified in this Quarterly Report, as well as the risks set forth above, as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Except as otherwise required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements made after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or any other reason. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the risks described in Part I, Item 1A of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the inclusion of such forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the objectives and plans set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be achieved.

Overview
We are a Maryland corporation that was formed on September 18, 2008, to invest in and manage a portfolio of income-producing retail properties, located in the United States, real estate-owning entities and real estate-related assets, including the investment in or origination of mortgage, mezzanine, bridge and other loans related to commercial real estate. During the first quarter of 2016, we also invested, through joint ventures, in two significant retail projects under development. We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2009, and we have operated and intend to continue to operate in such a manner. We own substantially all of our assets and conduct our operations through our operating partnership, of which we are the sole general partner. We also own a majority of the outstanding limited partner interests in the operating partnership.
Since our inception, our business has been managed by an external advisor. We do not have direct employees and all management and administrative personnel responsible for conducting our business are employed by our advisor. Currently we are externally managed and advised by SRT Advisor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Advisor”) pursuant to an advisory agreement with the Advisor (the “Advisory Agreement”) initially executed on August 10, 2013, and subsequently renewed every year through 2020. The current term of the Advisory Agreement terminates on August 9, 2021. The Advisor is an affiliate of Glenborough, LLC (together with its affiliates, “Glenborough”), a privately held full-service real estate investment and management company focused on the acquisition, management and leasing of commercial properties.
Impact of COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19, a respiratory illness caused by the novel coronavirus, a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused state and local governments to institute quarantines, shelter-in-place rules and restrictions on travel, the types of business that may continue to operate, and the types of construction projects that may continue. California, where the majority of our properties are located, declared a state of emergency on March 4, 2020 and instituted a shelter-in-place order on March 19, 2020 to reduce the spread of COVID-19. On May 7, 2020, California moved into Stage 2 of its four-stage reopening roadmap, permitting certain sectors of the economy to reopen provided that there were significant safety measures in place. On June 12, 2020, California permitted businesses such as movie theaters, restaurants, wineries, bars, zoos, museums, gyms, fitness centers, hotels, cardrooms, racetracks, and campgrounds to re-open. On July 13, 2020, California re-instituted a state-wide closure on many types of businesses that were previously permitted to re-open such as indoor dining, bars, movie theaters, and museums.
COVID-19 and the efforts to contain its spread have significantly impacted the global economy, the U.S. economy, the economies of the local markets throughout California in which our properties are predominately located, and the broader financial markets. Nearly every industry has been impacted directly or indirectly, and the U.S. retail market has come under severe pressure due to numerous factors, including preventative measures taken by local, state and federal authorities to alleviate the public health crisis such as mandatory business closures, quarantines, restrictions on travel and shelter-in-place or stay-at-home orders. There is uncertainty as to the time, date and extent to which these restrictions will be relaxed, lifted or reinstated, businesses of tenants that have closed, either voluntarily or by mandate, will reopen or when customers will re-engage with tenants as they have in the past. Due to this uncertainty, some of our tenants are experiencing hardships, as they are unable to operate at full capacity.
We believe that there is a reasonable risk that the COVID-19 outbreak could negatively impact our financial condition and results of operations, including but not limited to, declines in real estate rental revenues, the inability to sell certain properties at a favorable price, and a decrease in construction and leasing activity. The majority of our tenants have recently requested rent deferral or rent abatement as a result of the pandemic. These tenants account for approximately 95% of our annualized rents. To date only a small percent of the requests for rent relief resulted in modified agreements, however we are reviewing requests on a case by case basis and are continuing to monitor and communicate with our commercial tenants to assess their needs and ability to make either full or partial rent payments. In most cases, it is in our best interest to help our tenants remain in business and reopen when shelter-in-place orders or other mandated closures are lifted. If these tenants fail, finding replacement tenants may be costly and time-consuming. In addition, while the majority of our properties are fully leased as of June 30, 2020, we expect that the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our ability to lease up available commercial space at certain properties. For example, potential tenant interest in the Wilshire Property has slowed in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. As of June 30, 2020, we had approximately 8,900 square feet of vacant commercial space and no commercial lease expirations scheduled for the remainder of 2020.
23
To mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on our operations and liquidity, we have taken a number of proactive measures, which include the following:
• | Our Advisor has been able to transition all employees and operations to a remote work environment, beginning on March 16, 2020, and we have been fortunate that our operations have continued successfully during these difficult times. |
• | We are in constant communication with our tenants and are assisting tenants in identifying local, state and federal resources that may be available to support their businesses and employees during the pandemic, including stimulus funds that may be available under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020. |
• | We believe we have adequate cash and cash equivalents to service our debts and pay for our ongoing general and administrative expenses for the foreseeable future. As of June 30, 2020, we have approximately $4.3 million in cash and cash equivalents. In addition, we have approximately $0.8 million of restricted cash (funds held by the lenders for property taxes, insurance, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, capital expenditures, rollover reserves and other financing needs). Furthermore, the Shops at Turkey Creek remain unencumbered by debt and is available for financing to provide us funds if needed. |
• | We fully paid off the revolving line of credit with the SRT Loan (as defined below) from PFP Holding Company, LLC (the “SRT Lender”). The SRT Loan is secured by six of our core urban properties in Los Angeles and San Francisco. The SRT Loan does not have the sort of restrictive covenants and ongoing debt coverage ratios that could trigger a default caused by tenants not paying rent or seeking rent relief (unlike the former line of credit). |
• | We remain in compliance with all the terms of the Wilshire Construction Loan (as defined below), which matures on May 10, 2022 with the options to extend for two additional twelve-month periods, subject to certain conditions. Similarly, we remain in compliance with the Sunset & Gardner Loan (as defined below), which matures on October 31, 2020. On July 31, 2020, we negotiated an extension to the maturity date of the Sunset & Gardner Loan. Refer to the Subsequent Events section for additional information. |
• | To further preserve cash and liquidity, we suspended our Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program (the “SRP”), such suspension to be effective on May 21, 2020. The SRP will remain suspended and no further redemptions will be made unless and until our board of directors (the “Board”) approves the resumption of the SRP. During the suspension, we will continue to accept death and qualifying disability redemption filings from stockholders, but will not take any action with regard to those requests until the Board has elected to lift the suspension and provided the terms and conditions for any continuation of the program. In addition, on March 27, 2020, the board of directors decided to suspend the payment of any dividend for the quarters ending March 31, 2020, and will reconsider future dividend payments on a quarter by quarter basis as more information becomes available on the impact of COVID-19 and related impact to us. Dividend payments were not reinstated as of June 30, 2020. |
Given the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic’s near and potential long-term impact on our business, the full extent of the financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. However, there are those who believe that, as more tools are developed to fight COVID-19 - increased testing, enhanced monitoring, data analysis and identification of effective therapeutics-the country can, anchored by advice of healthcare specialists, incrementally foster economic activity in the near term and at some point with a vaccine and time, the country should return to a more normal state as with other pandemics in the past.
24
Property Portfolio
As of June 30, 2020, our property portfolio included 7 retail properties, excluding a land parcel, which we refer to as “our properties” or “our portfolio,” comprising an aggregate of approximately 43,000 square feet of multi-tenant, commercial retail space located in two states. We purchased our properties for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $39.6 million. As of June 30, 2020 approximately 79% of our portfolio was leased (based on rentable square footage), with a weighted-average remaining lease term of approximately 7.7 years. As of December 31, 2019, approximately 90% of our portfolio was leased (based on rentable square footage), with a weighted-average remaining lease term of approximately 6.8 years.

Our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of those expected in future periods.
Revenue
The decrease in revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, was primarily due to the sales of a significant portion of Topaz Marketplace in February 2020 as well as rent concessions provided to our tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Operating and maintenance expenses
Operating and maintenance expenses decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, when compared to the same period in 2019, consistent with the sale of Topaz Marketplace. Lower management fees and lower bad debt reserves also contributed to the decrease in operating and maintenance expenses.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019 primarily due to increased legal fees related to a previous contract to sell Shops at Turkey Creek. The buyer canceled the contract due to the uncertainty related to COVID-19.
26
Depreciation and amortization expenses
Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to classification of Topaz Marketplace as held for sale during the three months ended September, 2019, and subsequent sale in February 2020.
Interest expense
Interest expense decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, due to decreases in interest rates as well as decreases in debt balances as a result of using the proceeds from property disposition activities to repay debt. Additionally, decreased deferred loan fees amortization also contributed to a decrease in interest expense.
Other income (loss), net
Other loss, net for the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily consisted of equity in loss resulting from our investment in unconsolidated joint ventures. There was no other income or loss during the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Other income (loss), net for the six months ended June 30, 2020, consisted of gain on sale of Topaz Marketplace. Other income (loss), net for the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily consisted of equity in loss resulting from our investment in unconsolidated joint ventures.
Income Taxes
Income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, consisted of various state tax payments.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception, our principal demand for funds has been for the acquisition of real estate, the payment of operating expenses and interest on our outstanding indebtedness, the payment of distributions to our stockholders and investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and development properties. On February 7, 2013, we ceased offering shares of our common stock in our primary offering and under our distribution reinvestment plan. As a result of the termination of our initial public offering, offering proceeds from the sale of our securities are not currently available to fund our cash needs. We have used and expect to continue to use debt financing, net sales proceeds and cash flow from operations to fund our cash needs.
As of June 30, 2020, our cash and cash equivalents were approximately $4.3 million and we had $0.8 million of restricted cash (funds held by the lenders for property taxes, insurance, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, capital expenditures, rollover reserves and other financing needs).
Our aggregate borrowings, secured and unsecured, are reviewed by our board of directors at least quarterly. Under our Articles of Amendment and Restatement, as amended, which we refer to as our “charter,” we are prohibited from borrowing in excess of 300% of the value of our net assets. Net assets for purposes of this calculation is defined to be our total assets (other than intangibles), valued at cost prior to deducting depreciation, reserves for bad debts and other non-cash reserves, less total liabilities. However, we may temporarily borrow in excess of these amounts if such excess is approved by a majority of the independent directors and disclosed to stockholders in our next quarterly report, along with an explanation for such excess. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our borrowings were approximately 66.0% and 75.1%, respectively, of the carrying value of our net assets.
The following table summarizes, for the periods indicated, selected items in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (amounts in thousands):

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
The decrease in cash flows from operating activities was primarily due to lower operating income during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019, which resulted from sale of Topaz Marketplace during the three months ended March 31, 2020, as well as increased accounts receivable and rent deferral balances resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash flows provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily consisted of approximately $9.9 million of proceeds from sale of Topaz Marketplace. These were partially offset by our aggregate additional $4.8 million investment in the Wilshire and Sunset and Gardner Joint Ventures.
Cash flows used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily consisted of our aggregate additional $1.7 million investment in the Wilshire and Sunset and Gardner Joint Ventures.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash flows used by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily consisted of approximately $8.9 million in repayments of our line of credit. This was partially offset by approximately $2.9 million from construction loan proceeds.
Cash flows provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily consisted of approximately $14.8 million from construction loan proceeds and draws on our line of credit. This was partially offset by repayment of our debt balances of approximately $10.3 million, our quarterly dividend payments of approximately $1.3 million, and redemptions of our common stock of approximately $0.4 million.
Short-term Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal short-term demand for funds is for the payment of operating expenses, the payment on our outstanding indebtedness and distributions. To date, our cash needs for operations have been covered from cash provided by property operations, the sales of properties and the sale of shares of our common stock. We may fund our short-term operating cash needs from operations, from the sales of properties and from debt.
Long-term Liquidity and Capital Resources
On a long-term basis, our principal demand for funds will be for real estate and real estate-related investments and the payment of acquisition-related expenses, operating expenses, distributions to stockholders, future redemptions of shares and interest and principal payments on current and future indebtedness. Generally, we intend to meet cash needs for items other than acquisitions and acquisition-related expenses from our cash flow from operations, debt and sales of properties. On a long-term basis, we expect that substantially all cash generated from operations will be used to pay distributions to our stockholders after satisfying our operating expenses including interest and principal payments. We may consider future public offerings or private placements of equity. Refer to Note 7. “Notes Payable, Net” to our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on the maturity dates and terms of our outstanding indebtedness.
Recent Financing Transactions
Multi-Property Secured Financing
On December 24,2019, we entered into a Loan Agreement (the “SRT Loan Agreement”) with PFP Holding Company, LLC (the “SRT Lender”) for a non-recourse secured loan (the “SRT Loan”).
The SRT Loan is secured by first deeds of trust on our five San Francisco assets (Fulton Shops, 8 Octavia, 400 Grove, 450 Hayes and 388 Fulton Street) as well as our Silverlake Collection located in Los Angeles. Proceeds from the SRT Loan were used by us to pay down our credit facility and in connection with such payment, the properties referenced above were released from liens related to that credit facility. The SRT Loan matures on January 9, 2023. We have an option to extend the term of the loan for two additional twelve-month periods, subject to the satisfaction of certain covenants and conditions contained in the SRT Loan Agreement. We have the right to prepay the SRT Loan in whole at any time or in part from time to time, subject to the payment of yield maintenance payments if such prepayment occurs in the first 18 months of the loan term, calculated through the 18th monthly payment date, as well as certain expenses, costs or liabilities potentially incurred by the SRT Lender as a result of the prepayment and subject to certain other conditions contained in the loan documents. Individual properties may be released from the SRT Loan collateral in connection with bona fide third-party sales, subject to compliance with certain covenants and conditions contained in the SRT Loan Agreement. Any prepayment or repayment on or before the first 12 months
28
of the loan term in connection with a bona fide third-party sale of a property securing the SRT Loan shall only require the payment of yield maintenance payments calculated through the 12th monthly payment date.
As of June 30, 2020, the SRT Loan had a principal balance of approximately $18.0 million. The SRT Loan is a floating LIBOR rate loan which bears interest at 30-day LIBOR (with a floor of 1.50%) plus 2.80%. The default rate is equal to 5% above the rate that otherwise would be in effect. Monthly payments are interest-only with the entire principal balance and all outstanding interest due at maturity.
Pursuant to the SRT Loan, we must comply with certain matters contained in the loan documents including but not limited to, (i) requirements to deliver audited and unaudited financial statements, SEC filings, tax returns, pro forma budgets, and quarterly compliance certificates, and (ii) minimum limits on our liquidity and tangible net worth. The SRT Loan contains customary covenants, including, without limitation, covenants with respect to maintenance of properties and insurance, compliance with laws and environmental matters, covenants limiting or prohibiting the creation of liens, and transactions with affiliates.
In connection with the SRT Loan, we executed customary non-recourse carveout and environmental guaranties, together with limited additional assurances with regard to the condominium structures of the San Francisco assets.
Loans Secured by Properties Under Development
On May 7, 2019, we refinanced and repaid our financing with Loan Oak Fund, LLC with a new construction loan from ReadyCap Commercial, LLC (the “Lender”) (the “Wilshire Construction Loan”). As of June 30, 2020, the Wilshire Construction Loan had a principal balance of approximately $11.4 million, with future funding availability up to a total of approximately $13.9 million, and bears an interest rate of 1-month LIBOR plus an interest margin of 4.25% per annum, payable monthly. The Wilshire Construction Loan is scheduled to mature on May 10, 2022, with options to extend for two additional twelve-month periods, subject to certain conditions as stated in the loan agreement. The Wilshire Construction Loan is secured by a first Deed of Trust on the property. We executed a guaranty that guaranties that the loan interest reserve amounts are kept in compliance with the terms of the loan agreement. The Lender also required that a principal in the upstream owner of our joint venture partner in the Wilshire Joint Venture (the “Guarantor”), guarantees performance of borrower’s obligations under the loan agreement with respect to the completion of capital improvements to the property. We executed an Indemnity Agreement in favor of the Guarantor against liability under that completion guaranty except to the extent caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct, as well as for liabilities incurred under the Environmental Indemnity Agreement executed by the Guarantor in favor of the Lender. We used working capital funds of approximately $3.1 million to repay the difference between the Wilshire Construction Loan initial advance and the prior loan, to pay transaction costs, as well as to fund certain required interest and construction reserves.
On October 29, 2018, we entered into a loan agreement with Lone Oak Fund, LLC (the “Sunset & Gardner Loan”). The Sunset & Gardner Loan has a principal balance of approximately $8.7 million, and bears an interest rate of 6.9% per annum. The Sunset & Gardner Loan was scheduled to mature on October 31, 2019. We extended the Sunset & Gardner Loan for an additional twelve-month period under the same terms, with an interest rate of 6.5% per annum. The new maturity date is October 31, 2020. We negotiated an additional one year extension with the lender. Refer to the Subsequent Events section for additional information. The Sunset & Gardner Loan is secured by a first Deed of Trust on the property.
Line of Credit
On February 10, 2020, we used proceeds from the sale of Topaz Marketplace to repay the line of credit in its entirety. The line of credit expired of its own accord on February 15, 2020, with no balance outstanding. As part of the payoff, Shops at Turkey Creek was released from the line of credit.
Effective January 8, 2020, we elected to permanently reduce the maximum aggregate commitment under its line of credit from $30.0 million to $10.5 million. All other terms of the credit facility remained the same.
Guidelines on Total Operating Expenses
We reimburse our Advisor for some expenses paid or incurred by our Advisor in connection with the services provided to us, except that we will not reimburse our Advisor for any amount by which our total operating expenses at the end of the four preceding fiscal quarters exceed the greater of (1) 2% of our average invested assets, as defined in our charter; and (2) 25% of our net income, as defined in our charter, or the “2%/25% Guidelines” unless a majority of our independent directors determines that such excess expenses are justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, our total operating expenses did not exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines.
29
On August 2, 2018, we entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Advisory Agreement. The Advisory Agreement Amendment provides that the Advisor shall not be required to reimburse to us any operating expenses incurred during a given period that exceed the applicable limit on “Total Operating Expenses” (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) to the extent that such excess operating expenses are incurred as a result of certain unusual and non-recurring factors approved by our board of directors, including some related to the execution of our investment strategy as directed by our board of directors. These provisions were also included in the Eighth Amendment to the Advisory Agreement entered into July 30, 2020.
Inflation
The majority of our leases at our properties contain inflation protection provisions applicable to reimbursement billings for common area maintenance charges, real estate tax and insurance reimbursements on a per square foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses above a certain per square foot allowance. We expect to include similar provisions in our future tenant leases designed to protect us from the impact of inflation. Due to the generally long-term nature of these leases, annual rent increases, as well as rents received from acquired leases, may not be sufficient to cover inflation and rent may be below market rates.
REIT Compliance
To qualify as a REIT for tax purposes, we are required to annually distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, to our stockholders. We must also meet certain asset and income tests, as well as other requirements. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which our REIT qualification is lost unless the IRS grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
Quarterly Distributions
As set forth above, in order to qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, to our stockholders.
Under the terms of the credit facility, we may pay distributions to our stockholders so long as the total amount paid does not exceed certain thresholds specified in the credit facility; provided, however, that we are not restricted from making any distributions necessary in order to maintain our status as a REIT. Our board of directors will continue to evaluate the amount of future quarterly distributions based on our operational cash needs.
Some or all of our distributions have been paid, and in the future may continue to be paid, from sources other than cash flows from operations.
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, its impact on the economy and the related future uncertainty, on March 27, 2020, our board of directors decided to suspend the payment of any dividend for the quarters ending March 31, 2020, and to reconsider future dividend payments on a quarter by quarter basis as more information becomes available on the impact of COVID-19 and related impact to the Company. Dividend payments were not reinstated as of June 30, 2020
The following table set forth the quarterly distributions declared to our common stockholders and Common Unit holders for the year ended 2019 (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):

Funds From Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”) is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of a real estate company’s operating performance. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or “NAREIT”, an industry trade group, has promulgated this supplemental performance measure and defines FFO as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and excluding extraordinary items and gains and losses on the sale of real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures (adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO.) It is important to note that not only is FFO not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP, it also does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP. FFO should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance, nor is FFO necessarily indicative of cash flow as a measure of liquidity or our ability to fund cash needs, including the payment of distributions.
We consider FFO to be a meaningful, additional measure of operating performance and one that is an appropriate supplemental disclosure for an equity REIT due to its widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. Comparison of our presentation of FFO to similarly titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in the application of the NAREIT definition used by such REITs.
Our calculation of FFO attributable to common shares and Common Units and the reconciliation of net income (loss) to FFO is as follows (amounts in thousands, except shares and per share amounts):
Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||

(1) | Our common units have the right to convert a unit into common stock for a one-to-one conversion. Therefore, we are including the related non-controlling interest income/loss attributable to common units in the computation of FFO and including the common units together with weighted average shares outstanding for the computation of FFO per share and common unit. |
Related Party Transactions and Agreements
We are currently party to the Advisory Agreement, pursuant to which the Advisor manages our business in exchange for specified fees paid for services related to the investment of funds in real estate and real estate-related investments, management of our investments and for other services. Refer to Note 11. “Related Party Transactions” to our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of the Advisory Agreement and other related party transactions, agreements and fees.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Our off-balance sheet arrangements consist primarily of carve-out guarantees in connection with our previous investments in unconsolidated joint ventures as described in the consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These carve-out guarantees do not represent a liability of the partners other than carve-out guarantees for certain matters such as environmental conditions, misuse of funds and material misrepresentations. We have retained certain rights of recovery in connection with these carve-out guarantees.
31
Critical Accounting Policies
Our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of our financial statements requires significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. A discussion of additional accounting policies that management considers critical in that they involve significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates is included in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Subsequent Events
On July 31, 2020, we extended the Sunset & Gardner Loan for an additional twelve-month period under the same terms, with an interest rate of 7.3% per annum. The new maturity date is October 31, 2021.
We evaluate subsequent events up until the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

Based upon, and as of the date of, the evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
During the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we did not issue any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Share Redemption Program
On April 1, 2015, our board of directors approved the reinstatement of the share redemption program (which had been suspended since January 15, 2013) and adopted an Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program (the “SRP”). Under the SRP, only shares submitted for repurchase in connection with the death or “qualifying disability” (as defined in the SRP) of a stockholder are eligible for repurchase by us. Under the current SRP, as amended to date, the number of shares to be redeemed is limited to the lesser of (i) a total of $3.5 million for redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death and a total of $1.0 million for redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s qualifying disability, and (ii) 5% of the weighted-average number of shares of our common stock outstanding during the prior calendar year. Share repurchases pursuant to the SRP are made at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to reject any redemption request for any reason or no reason or to amend or terminate the share redemption program at any time subject to the notice requirements in the SRP.
The redemption price for shares that are redeemed is 100% of our most recent estimated net asset value per share as of the applicable redemption date. A redemption request must be made within one year after the stockholder’s death or qualifying disability.
The SRP provides that any request to redeem less than $5,000 worth of shares will be treated as a request to redeem all of the stockholder’s shares. If we cannot honor all redemption requests received in a given quarter, all requests, including death and qualifying disability redemptions, will be honored on a pro rata basis. If we do not completely satisfy a redemption request in one quarter, we will treat the unsatisfied portion as a request for redemption in the next quarter when funds are available for redemption, unless the request is withdrawn. We may increase or decrease the amount of funding available for redemptions under the SRP on ten business days’ notice to stockholders. Shares submitted for redemption during any quarter will be redeemed on the penultimate business day of such quarter. The record date for quarterly distributions has historically been and is expected to continue to be the last business day of each quarter; therefore, shares that are redeemed during any quarter are expected to be redeemed prior to the record date and thus would not be eligible to receive the distribution declared for such quarter.
On August 8, 2019, our board of directors approved an additional $0.3 million of funds for the redemption of shares in connection with the death of a stockholder and $0.2 million of funds for redemption of shares in connection with the qualifying disability of a stockholder.
In order to preserve cash in light of the uncertainty relating to the duration of shelter-in-place orders and the economic impact of COVID-19 on the Company, by unanimous written consent executed on April 21, 2020, the Board approved the suspension of the SRP, which offered redemption opportunities only in connection with a stockholder’s death or qualifying disability.
Under the SRP, the Board may amend, suspend, or terminate the SRP with 30 days’ notice to our stockholders. The Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on April 21, 2020 with the SEC, served as such required notice and therefore the suspension of the SRP became effective on May 21, 2020. The SRP will remain suspended and no further redemptions will be made until the board of directors approves the resumption of the SRP. During the suspension, we will continue to accept death and qualifying disability redemption filings from stockholders, but will not take any action with regard to those requests until the board of directors has elected to lift the suspension and provided the terms and conditions for any continuation of the SRP.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we did not redeem shares. Cumulatively, through June 30, 2020, we have redeemed 878,458 shares for $6.2 million. We had no unfulfilled redemption requests during the quarter ended June 30, 2020.
