FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are forward-looking statements. Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of KBSPacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT II, Inc. and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “should” or similar expressions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law.
The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all of the risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:
We depend on our advisor to conduct our operations and eventually dispose of our investments.
Because our new advisor, Pacific Oak Capital Advisors, LLC, was recently formed, it could face challenges with employee hiring and retention, information technology, vendor relationships, and funding; if Pacific Oak Capital Advisors faces challenges in performing its obligations to us, it could negatively impact our ability to achieve our investment objectives.
All of our executive officers, our affiliated directors and other key real estate and debt finance professionals are also officers, directors, managers, key professionals and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor, our dealer manager and other KBS-affiliatedPacific Oak-affiliated entities. As a result, they face conflicts of interest, including significant conflicts created by our advisor’s compensation arrangements with us and other KBS-advisedPacific Oak-advised programs and investors and conflicts in allocating time among us and these other programs and investors. These conflicts could result in unanticipated actions.
We face potential business disruptions due to the recent global outbreak of COVID-19 (Coronavirus). The virus has significantly disrupted economic markets and impacted commercial activity worldwide, including the US, and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. Our tenants and potential tenants of the properties we own could be adversely affected by the disruption to business caused by the virus.
We raised substantially less than the maximum offering amount in our initial public offering. Therefore, our portfolio of properties may not be as diverse as it otherwise would, which will cause the value of our stockholders’ investment to vary more widely with the performance of specific assets.
Our advisor and its affiliates receive fees in connection with transactions involving the management of our investments. These fees are based on the cost of the investment, and not based on the quality of the investment or the quality of the services rendered to us. This may influence our advisor to recommend riskier transactions to us and increase our stockholders’ risk of loss.
Our distribution policy is generally not to use offering proceeds to pay distributions. However, we may pay distributions from any source, including, without limitation, from offering proceeds or borrowings (which may constitute a return of capital). If we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations, we will have less funds available for investment in properties and other assets and the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced.
Our policies do not limit us from incurring debt until our total liabilities would exceed 75% of the cost of our tangible assets (before deducting depreciation and other non-cash reserves), and we may exceed this limit with the approval of the conflicts committee of our board of directors. To the extent financing in excess of this limit is available on attractive terms, our conflicts committee may approve debt such that our total liabilities would exceed this limit. High debt levels could limit the amount of cash we have available to distribute and could result in a decline in the value of an investment in us.
Disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions could adversely affect our ability to implement our business strategy and generate returns to stockholders.
Our opportunistic property-acquisition strategy involves a higher risk of loss than would a strategy of investing in stabilized properties.
Our estimated net asset value per share does not currently represent our enterprise value and may not accurately reflect the actual prices at which our assets could be liquidated on any given day, the value a third party would pay for all or substantially all of our shares, or the price that our shares would trade at on a national stock exchange.
Certain of our debt obligations have variable interest rates and related payments that vary with the movement of LIBOR or other indexes. Increases in these indexes 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 this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Overview
Pacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT II, Inc. (formerly known as KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT II, Inc.Inc) was formed on February 6, 2013 as a Maryland corporation and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with the taxable year endingended December 31, 2014 and it intends to continue to operate in such a manner. As used herein, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to KBSPacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT II, Inc. and as required by context, KBSPacific Oak Strategic Opportunity Limited Partnership II, a Delaware limited partnership formed on May 21, 2013 (the “Operating Partnership”), and its subsidiaries. KBS Capital Advisors LLC was previously our external advisor and on October 31, 2019 ceased to be our advisor or have any advisory responsibility to us immediately following the filing of our Quarter Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2019. On November 1, 2019, Pacific Oak Capital Advisors, LLC (“Pacific Oak Capital Advisors”) became our advisor. As our advisor, Pacific Oak Capital Advisors manages our day-to-day operations and our portfolio of investments. Pacific Oak Capital Advisors also has the authority to make all of the decisions regarding our investments, subject to the limitations in our charter and the direction and oversight of our board of directors. Pacific Oak Capital Advisors also provides asset-management, marketing, investor-relations and other administrative services on our behalf. We have sought to invest in and manage a diverse portfolio of real estate related loans, opportunistic real estate, real estate-related debt securities and other real estate-related investments. We conduct our business primarily through our Operating Partnership, of which we are the sole general partner. We have no paid employees.
KBS Capital Advisors LLCentered a sub-advisory agreement with STAM Europe (“KBS Capital Advisors”STAM”) serves as our external advisor, a real estate operating company based in Paris, France, pursuant to an advisory agreement initially entered into on July 3, 2013. As our advisor, KBS Capital Advisors manages our day-to-day operations and manages our portfolio ofwhich STAM would provide real estate propertiesacquisition and real estate-related investments. KBS Capital Advisors also provides marketing, investor-relations and other administrativeportfolio management services on our behalf. On July 3, 2013, we issued 21,739 shares of our common stock to our advisor at a purchase price of $9.20 per share.in connection with investments in Europe. Effective April 17, 2019, STAM terminated the sub-advisory agreement with KBS Capital Advisors.
On July 3, 2013, we commenced a private placement offering exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to offer a maximum of $105,000,000 of shares of common stock for sale to certain accredited investors, of which $5,000,000 of shares were offered pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan. We ceased offering shares in our private offering on August 11, 2014. KBS Capital Markets Group LLC, an affiliate of our advisor,KBS Capital Advisors, served as the dealer manager of the offering pursuant to a dealer manager agreement and was responsible for marketing our shares in the offering.
On November 14, 2013, we filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register for sale to the public a maximum of 180,000,000 shares of common stock, of which 80,000,000 shares were to be offered pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan. The SEC declared our registration statement effective on August 12, 2014 and we retained KBS Capital Markets Group LLC to serve as the dealer manager of the initial public offering pursuant to a dealer manager agreement. On February 11, 2016, we filed an amended registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to offer a second class of common stock designated as Class T shares and to designate our initially offered and outstanding common stock as Class A shares. Pursuant to the amended registration statement, we were offering to sell any combination of Class A and Class T shares in our primary offering and dividend reinvestment plan offering but in no event could we sell more than 180,000,000 of shares of our common stock pursuant to the offering. We commenced offering our Class T shares of our common stock for sale to the public on February 17, 2016. The dealer manager was responsible for marketing our shares in the initial public offering.
We ceased offering shares of common stock in our initial public offering on July 31, 2018 and terminated our initial public offering on September 28, 2018. We continue to offer shares of common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan. In some states, we will need to renew the registration statement annually or file a new registration statement to continue our dividend reinvestment plan offering. We may terminate our dividend reinvestment plan offering at any time.
We have used substantially all of the net proceeds from our offerings to invest in and manage a portfolio of opportunistic real estate, real estate-related loans, real estate equity securities and other real estate-related investments located in the United States and Europe. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we had invested in two hotel properties, fourthree office properties, one apartment building an investmentand owned two investments in an unconsolidated entityjoint ventures and an investment in real estate equity securities. Additionally, as of December 31, 2018,2019, we had entered into a consolidated joint venture to develop one office/retail property.
We sold 11,977,758 and 11,537,701 shares of Class A and Class T common stock, respectively, for aggregate gross offering proceeds of $228.6 million in our initial public offering. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we had sold 602,462723,641 and 225,137333,841 shares of Class A and Class T common stock, respectively, under our dividend reinvestment plan for aggregate gross offering proceeds of $7.6$9.8 million.

We sold 3,619,851 shares of Class A common stock for gross offering proceeds of $32.2 million in our private offering. Additionally, on each of April 2, 2014 and July 31, 2014, we issued 120,106 shares of Class A common stock to an entity affiliated with two of our officers and affiliated directors for $1.0 million in separate private transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. On July 14, 2017 and February 13, 2018, we issued 214,175 shares and 10,935 shares, respectively, of Class A common stock to a business associate of two of our officers and affiliated directors for $2.0 million and $0.1 million, respectively, in a separate private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

On February 19, 2020, we, Pacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. (“POSOR I”), and Pacific Oak SOR II, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of POSOR I (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, we will merge with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub surviving the Merger (the “Surviving Entity”), such that following the Merger, the Surviving Entity will continue as an indirect subsidiary of POSOR I. In accordance with the applicable provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law, the separate existence of our company shall cease. At the effective time of the Merger and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, each issued and outstanding share of our common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.9643 shares of POSOR I common stock. The combined company after the Merger will retain the name “Pacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc.” The Merger is intended to qualify as a “reorganization” under, and within the meaning of, Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. See “Proposed Merger” below for more information.
Objectives and Strategies
Our primary investment objectives are:
to preserve and return our stockholders’ capital contributions;
to realize growth in the value of our investments; and
to provide increasing cash distributions to our investors through increased cash flow from operations or targeted asset sales.
We have completed our acquisition stage and we plan to lease-up and stabilize existing assets, as well as explore value-add opportunities for existing assets. We will seek to realize growth in the value of our investments by timing asset sales to maximize their value.
Investment Strategies
We have sought to achieve our objectives by using substantially all of the net proceeds from our offerings and debt financing to invest in and manage a portfolio of opportunistic real estate, real estate-related loans, real estate equity securities and other real estate-related investments located in the United States and Europe. We believe that we are most likely to meet our investment objectives through the careful selection and underwriting of assets. When making an investment, we emphasized the performance and risk characteristics of that investment, how that investment fits with our portfolio-level performance objectives, the other assets in our portfolio and how the returns and risks of that investment compare to the returns and risks of available investment alternatives.
Real Estate Investments
As of December 31, 2018,2019, we owned two hotel properties with an aggregate of 648649 rooms, fourthree office properties encompassing in the aggregate 864,940806,115 rentable square feet which were 70%68% occupied and one apartment property with 292 units which was 95%93% occupied. Additionally, as of December 31, 2018,2019, we had entered into a consolidated joint venture to develop one office/retail property. For more information about our real estate investments, see Part I, Item 2 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Real Estate-Related Investments
As of December 31, 2018,2019, we owned an investment in real estate equity securities with a total book value of $7.2$9.9 million.
Other Investment
As of December 31, 2018,2019, we owned an investmenttwo investments in an unconsolidated entity.entities. On June 28, 2016, we originated a participating loan facility to STAM in an amount up to €2.6 million ($2.9 million at closing). We funded approximately €2.1 million ($2.3 million at closing). In addition to the amount funded at closing, we also capitalized an additional $0.2 million of acquisition costs and fees.  During the year ended December 31, 2018, we recognized $0.3 million of income with respect to this investment. STAM used the proceeds to fund a general partner interest in a STAM-sponsored institutional real estate fund with an unrelated third party joint venture partner. The real estate fund invested in European real estate which STAM manages on behalf of the joint venture. As part of the terms of this investment with STAM, we receive a portion of the fees STAM receives from the fund. During the year ended December 31, 2019, STAM completed the liquidation of the portfolio and we recognized $2.8 million of equity in income of unconsolidated entity with respect to this investment.

Table of Contents
On December 31, 2019, the Company acquired 13 Class A Units for $2.9 million in Pacific Oak Opportunity Zone Fund I, LLC. As of December 31, 2019, Pacific Oak Opportunity Zone Fund I consolidated two joint ventures with real estate under development.
Financing Objectives
We have financed a portion of our investments with debt. We have used debt financing in various forms in an effort to increase the size of our portfolio and potential returns to our stockholders. Access to capital is crucial to our business, since we earn income based on the spread between the yield on our investments and the cost of our borrowings. The following table shows the current and fully extended maturities, including principal amortization payments, of our debt as of December 31, 2019 (in thousands):
Current MaturityExtended Maturity
2020$79,931  $21,922  
202176,575  37,129  
2022173,089  96,165  
2023—  25,419  
2024—  148,960  
$329,595  $329,595  
We have focused our investment activities on obtaining a portfolio of opportunistic real estate, real estate-related loans, real estate equity securities and other real estate investments. Careful use of debt has helped us to achieve our diversification goals because we have more funds available for investment. We expect our debt financing to be 60% or less of the cost of our tangible assets (before deducting depreciation and other non-cash reserves). This is our target leverage as established by our board of directors. There is no limitation on the amount we may borrow for any single investment. Our charter limits our total liabilities such that our total liabilities may not exceed 75% of the cost of our tangible assets (before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves); however, we may exceed that limit if a majority of the conflicts committee approves each borrowing in excess of our charter limitation and we disclose such borrowing to our common stockholders in our next quarterly report with an explanation from the conflicts committee of the justification for the excess borrowing. As of December 31, 2018,2019, our borrowings and other liabilities were approximately 60% of the cost (before depreciation and other noncash reserves) and book value (before depreciation) of our tangible assets.

We do not intend to exceed the leverage limit in our charter. Careful use of debt will help us to achieve our diversification goals because we will have more funds available for investment. However, high levels of debt could cause us to incur higher interest charges and higher debt service payments, which would decrease the amount of cash available for distribution to our investors, and could also be accompanied by restrictive covenants. High levels of debt could also increase the risk of being unable to refinance when loans become due, or of being unable to refinance on favorable terms, and the risk of loss with respect to assets pledged as collateral for loans.
Except with respect to the borrowing limits contained in our charter, we may reevaluate and change our debt policy in the future without a stockholder vote. Factors that we would consider when reevaluating or changing our debt policy include: economic conditions, the relative cost and availability of debt and equity capital, any investment opportunities, the ability of our investments to generate sufficient cash flow to cover debt service requirements and other similar factors. Further, we may increase or decrease our ratio of debt to book value in connection with any change of our borrowing policies.
Disposition Policies
The period that we will hold our investments will vary depending on the type of asset, interest rates and other factors. Our advisor has developed a well-defined exit strategy for each investment we have made. Pacific Oak Capital Advisors will continually perform a hold-sell analysis on each asset in order to determine the optimal time to hold the asset and generate a strong return for our stockholders. Economic and market conditions may influence us to hold our investments for different periods of time. We may sell an asset before the end of the expected holding period if we believe that market conditions have maximized its value to us or the sale of the asset would otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we sold one office building and there were no properties classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2019. The disposition strategy is consistent with our objectives of acquiring opportunistic investments, improving the investments and timing asset sales to realize the growth in the value that was created during our hold period.

Table of Contents
Proposed Merger
If the Merger were to occur today, the combined company’s portfolio would consist of nine office properties, one office portfolio consisting of four office buildings and 14 acres of undeveloped land, in the aggregate, approximately, 3.8 million rentable square feet and 77.7% leased occupancy (based on data as of March 24, 2020), two hotel properties, two apartment properties, one residential home portfolio consisting of 993 single-family rental homes, three investments in undeveloped land with approximately 1,000 developable acres, an investment in an office/retail property redevelopment, six investments in unconsolidated entities and four investments in real estate equity securities.
The Merger is conditioned upon receipt of the approval of the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares with respect to the Merger. In addition, the Merger Agreement provides certain termination rights for POSOR I and us. In connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement, under certain specified circumstances, we may be required to pay POSOR I a termination fee of $9.3 million.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, in exchange for each share of our common stock owned, our stockholders will receive 0.9643 shares of our common stock. Following the closing of the Merger, POSOR I and our stockholders are expected to own approximately 69.4% and 30.6% of the combined company, respectively. We expect the transaction to close in the second half of 2020, subject to certain closing conditions, including the approval of the merger by our stockholders.
Concurrently with the entry into the Merger Agreement, POSOR I and Pacific Oak Capital Advisors (which is also the external advisor to us) entered into the Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement (the “Amended Advisory Agreement”). The Amended Advisory Agreement amended POSOR I’s existing advisory agreement to provide that no acquisition fees will be paid in connection with the Merger and to set the “issue price” ($10.63 per share) of the shares issued in the Merger for purposes of calculating the Pacific Oak Capital Advisors’ incentive fee. The Merger itself will not trigger an incentive fee to Pacific Oak Capital Advisors by POSOR I or us.
Concurrently with the entry into the Merger Agreement, we and Pacific Oak Capital Advisors entered into a termination letter agreement (the “Termination Agreement”), effective as of February 19, 2020. Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, the advisory agreement between us and Pacific Oak Capital Advisors (the “POSOR II Advisory Agreement”) will be terminated at the effective time of the Merger. Also pursuant to the Termination Agreement, Pacific Oak Capital Advisors waived any disposition fee it otherwise would be entitled to receive from us with respect to the Merger. If, however, we are ultimately sold to another bidder, then Pacific Oak Capital Advisors may be entitled to a disposition fee from us in an amount as set forth in the POSOR II Advisory Agreement.
The foregoing descriptions of the Merger Agreement, the Termination Agreement and the Merger are not complete and are subject to and qualified in their entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement and the Termination Agreement, copies of which were filed as exhibits to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 20, 2020. There is no guarantee that the Merger will be consummated.
Economic Dependency
We are dependent on our advisor for certain services that are essential to us, including the disposition of investments; management of the daily operations of our investment portfolio; and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that our advisor is unable to provide these services, we will be required to obtain such services from other sources.
Competitive Market Factors
We face competition from various entities for prospective tenants and to retain our current tenants, including other REITs, pension funds, insurance companies, investment funds and companies, partnerships and developers. Many of these entities have substantially greater financial resources than we do and may be able to accept more risk than we can prudently manage, including risks with respect to the creditworthiness of a tenant. As a result of their greater resources, those entities may have more flexibility than we do in their ability to offer rental concessions to attract and retain tenants. This could put pressure on our ability to maintain or raise rents and could adversely affect our ability to attract or retain tenants. As a result, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and ability to pay distributions to our stockholders may be adversely affected.
Although we believe that we are well-positioned to compete effectively in each facet of our business, there is enormous competition in our market sector and there can be no assurance that we will compete effectively or that we will not encounter increased competition in the future that could limit our ability to conduct our business effectively.

Compliance with Federal, State and Local Environmental Law
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous real property owner or operator may be liable for the cost of removing or remediating hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. These costs could be substantial. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Environmental laws also may impose restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures or prevent us from entering into leases with prospective tenants that may be impacted by such laws. Environmental laws provide for sanctions for noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability for the release of and exposure to hazardous substances, including asbestos-containing materials. Third parties may seek recovery from real property owners or operators for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances. The cost of defending against claims of liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury claims could reduce the amounts available for distribution to our stockholders.
All of our real estate properties, other than properties acquired through foreclosure, will be subject to Phase I environmental assessments at the time they are acquired.

Segments
We have invested in opportunistic real estate investments and originated a loan secured by a non-stabilized real estate asset. In general, we intend to hold our investments in opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets for capital appreciation. Traditional performance metrics of opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets may not be meaningful as these investments are generally non-stabilized and do not provide a consistent stream of interest income or rental revenue. These investments exhibit similar long-term financial performance and have similar economic characteristics. These investments typically involve a higher degree of risk and do not provide a constant stream of ongoing cash flows. As a result, our management views opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets as similar investments. Substantially all of our revenue and net income (loss) is from opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets, and therefore, we currently aggregate our operating segments into one reportable business segment. In addition, we have invested in a participating loan facility secured by a portfolio of light industrial properties located in Europe. However, based on our investment portfolio and future investment focus, we do not believe that our investment in the European asset is a reportable segment.
Employees
We have no paid employees. The employees of our advisor or its affiliates provide management, acquisition, disposition, advisory and certain administrative services for us.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following are some of the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face but do represent those risks and uncertainties that we believe are material to us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also harm our business.
Risks Related to an Investment in Us
In January 20192020 we exhausted funds available for redemptions under our share redemption program, other than those submitted in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” for which we had $0.5 million available as of March 1, 2019.2020. Therefore, except in limited circumstances, our stockholders will be unable to sell their shares under our share redemption program.
During any calendar year, we may redeem only the number of shares that we could purchase with the amount of net proceeds from the sale of shares under our distribution reinvestment plan during the prior calendar year provided that $500,000 of this amount is reserved for redemptions made upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence.” In 2018,2019, our net proceeds from the distribution reinvestment plan were $3.0$2.2 million. As of the January 20191, 2020 redemption date, we had exhausted the amount available for ordinary redemptions, and as of March 1, 2019,2020, we had $1.9$8.2 million outstanding and unfulfilled redemption requests representing 205,038808,172 shares. We have $0.5 million available to fund special redemptions during the remainder of 2019.2020. We can provide no assurances as to whether our board of directors will make additional funds available for our share redemption program.

We raised substantially less than the maximum offering amount in our initial public offering. Therefore, our portfolio of assets may not be as diverse as it otherwise would, which will cause the value of our stockholders’ investment to vary more widely with the performance of specific assets.
Our initial public offering was made on a “best efforts” basis, whereby the broker-dealers who participated in the offering had no firm commitment or obligation to purchase any of the shares. In the public offering, we raised fewer proceeds than our sponsor and dealer manager originally expected. As a result, we raised substantially less than the maximum offering amount in the public offering. Therefore, we made fewer investments than originally intended, resulting in less diversification in terms of the number of investments owned and the geographic regions in which our investments or the collateral securing our investments are located. Adverse developments with respect to a single asset, or a geographic region, will have a greater adverse impact on our operations than they otherwise would.
Our board of directors has begun to explore strategic alternatives for us. If we consummate a merger or pursue another exit strategy in the near term, stockholders may not receive an amount per share equal to our estimated NAV per share. 
Our estimated NAV per share of $9.65,$10.25, as established by our board of directors on December 6, 2018,17, 2019, did not take into account estimated disposition costs and fees for real estate properties, entity liquidation costs, and debt prepayment penalties that could apply upon the prepayment of certain of our debt obligations. These fees may be substantial. Thus, to the extent we consummate a merger or pursue another exit strategy in the near term, stockholders may not recover the estimated NAV per share due to the impact of these fees and costs.
Because no public trading market for our shares currently exists, it will be difficult for our investors to sell their shares and, if they are able to sell their shares, it will likely be at a substantial discount to the offering price.
No public market currently exists for our shares, and at this time we have no plans to list our shares on a national securities exchange. Our charter does not require our directors to provide our stockholders with a liquidity event by a specified date or at all. Until our shares are listed, if ever, our stockholders may not sell their shares unless the buyer meets the applicable suitability and minimum purchase standards. Any sale must comply with applicable state and federal securities laws. In addition, our charter prohibits the ownership of more than 9.8% of our stock by any person, unless exempted by our board of directors, which may inhibit large investors from purchasing our stockholders’ shares. Moreover, our share redemption program includes numerous restrictions that limit our stockholders’ ability to sell a stockholders’ shares to us, and our board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate our share redemption program upon 10 business days’ notice to stockholders. In addition, in January 20192020 we exhausted funds available for redemptions under our share redemption program, other than those submitted in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence.” Therefore, it will be difficult for stockholders to sell their shares promptly or at all. If stockholders are able to sell their shares, they would likely have to sell them at a substantial discount to their public offering price. It is also likely that our shares would not be accepted as the primary collateral for a loan.

Because of the concentration of a significant portion of our assets in California, any adverse economic, real estate or business conditions in this area could affect our operating results and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
As of December 31, 2018,2019, our real estate investments in California represented 55.2%56.2% of our total assets. As a result, the geographic concentration of our portfolio makes it particularly susceptible to adverse economic developments in the California real estate market. Any adverse economic or real estate developments in this market, such as business layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, relocations of businesses, changing demographics and other factors, or any decrease in demand for office space resulting from the local business climate, could adversely affect our operating results and our ability to make distributions to stockholders.
Disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions could adversely affect market rental rates, commercial real estate values and our ability to secure debt financing, service future debt obligations, or pay distributions to our stockholders.
We have relied on debt financing to finance our real estate properties and we may have difficulty refinancing some of our debt obligations prior to or at maturity or we may not be able to refinance these obligations at terms as favorable as the terms of our existing indebtedness and we also may be unable to obtain additional debt financing on attractive terms or at all. If we are not able to refinance our existing indebtedness on attractive terms at the various maturity dates, we may be forced to dispose of some of our assets. Market conditions can change quickly, which could negatively impact the value of our assets.

Disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions could adversely affect the values of our investments. Any disruption to the debt and capital markets could result in fewer buyers seeking to acquire commercial properties and possible increases in capitalization rates and lower property values. Furthermore, declining economic conditions could negatively impact commercial real estate fundamentals and result in lower occupancy, lower rental rates and declining values in our real estate portfolio and in the collateral securing our loan investments, which could have the following negative effects on us:
the values of our investments in commercial properties could decrease below the amounts paid for such investments;
the value of collateral securing our loan investments could decrease below the outstanding principal amounts of such loans;
revenues from our properties could decrease due to fewer tenants and/or lower rental rates, making it more difficult for us to pay distributions or meet our debt service obligations on debt financing; and/or
revenues generated by the properties and other assets securing our loan investments could decrease, making it more difficult for the borrowers to meet their payment obligations to us, which could in turn make it more difficult for us to pay distributions or meet our debt service obligations on debt financing.
All of these factors could reduce our stockholders’ return and decrease the value of an investment in us.
Subsequent to December 31, 2019, there was a global outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus, COVID-19 which has been designated as a pandemic by the World Health Organization, continues to adversely impact global commercial activity and has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving, and as cases of the virus have continued to be identified in additional countries, many countries have reacted by instituting quarantines, restrictions on travel, and limiting hours of operations of non-essential offices and retail centers. Such actions are creating disruption in global supply chains, and adversely impacting a number of industries. The outbreak could have a continued adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of the novel coronavirus. Nevertheless, the novel coronavirus presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company’s performance and financial results, such as the potential negative impact to occupancy at its properties, financing arrangements, increased costs of operations, decrease in values of its investments, changes in law and/or regulation, and uncertainty regarding government and regulatory policy. The Company is unable to estimate the impact the novel coronavirus will have on its financial results at this time.

Uncertainty and volatility in the credit markets could affect our ability to obtain debt financing on reasonable terms, or at all, which could reduce the number of properties we may be able to acquire and the amount of cash distributions we can make to our stockholders.
The U.S. and global credit markets have in the past experienced severe dislocations and liquidity disruptions, which caused volatility in the credit spreads on prospective debt financings and constrained the availability of debt financing due to the reluctance of lenders to offer financing at high leverage ratios. Similar conditions in the future could adversely impact our ability to access additional debt financing on reasonable terms or at all, which may adversely affect investment returns on future acquisitions or our ability to make acquisitions.
If mortgage debt or unsecured debt is unavailable on reasonable terms as a result of increased interest rates, increased credit spreads, decreased liquidity or other factors, we may not be able to finance the initial purchase of properties. In addition, when we incur mortgage debt or unsecured debt, we run the risk of being unable to refinance such debt upon maturity, or of being unable to refinance on favorable terms.
If interest rates are higher or other financing terms, such as principal amortization, the need for a corporate guaranty, or other terms are not as favorable when we refinance debt or issue new debt, our income could be reduced. To the extent we are unable to refinance debt on reasonable terms, at appropriate times or at all, we may be required to sell properties on terms that are not advantageous to us, or that could result in the foreclosure of such properties. 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 securities or borrowing more money.
Because we depend upon our advisor and its affiliates to conduct our operations, adverse changes in the financial health of our advisor or its affiliates could cause our operations to suffer.
We depend on KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors, its affiliates and the key real estate and debt finance professionals at KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors to manage our operations and our portfolio of real estate-related loans, opportunistic real estate, real estate equity securities and other real estate-related investments. Our advisor depends upon the fees and other compensation that it receives from us and other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored public programs in connection with the origination, purchase, management and sale of assets to conduct its operations. Any adverse changes in the financial condition of KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors or its affiliates or our relationship with KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors or its affiliates could hinder their ability to successfully manage our operations and our portfolio of investments.
We have paid distributions in part from financings and expect that in the future we may not pay distributions solely from our cash flow from operating activities. To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operating activities, the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced.
Our organizational documents permit us to pay distributions from any source, including offering proceeds or borrowings (which may constitute a return of capital), and our charter does not limit the amount of funds we may use from any source to pay such distributions. We have paid distributions in part from financings and expect that in the future we may not pay distributions solely from our cash flow from operating activities, in which case distributions may be paid in whole or in part from debt financing. We may also fund such distributions with proceeds from the sale of assets. If we fund distributions from borrowings, our interest expense and other financing costs, as well as the repayment of such borrowings, will reduce our earnings and cash flow from operating activities available for distribution in future periods. If we fund distributions from the sale of assets, this will affect our ability to generate cash flow from operating activities in future periods. To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operating activities, the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced. In addition, to the extent distributions exceed cash flow from operating activities, a stockholder’s basis in our stock will be reduced and, to the extent distributions exceed a stockholder’s basis, the stockholder may recognize capital gain. There is no limit on the amount of distributions we may fund from sources other than from cash flow from operating activities.
For the year ended December 31, 2017, we paid aggregate distributions of $3.8 million, including $1.4 million of distributions paid in cash and $2.4 million of distributions reinvested through our dividend reinvestment plan. Our net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $3.3 million and cash flow provided by operations was $8.8 million. We funded our total distributions paid, which includes net cash distributions and dividends reinvested by stockholders, with $2.8 million of cash flow from operating activities and $1.0 million of debt financing.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, we paid aggregate distributions of $4.9 million, including $1.9 million of distributions paid in cash and $3.0 million of distributions reinvested through our dividend reinvestment plan. Our net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $23.5 million and cash flow provided by operations was $4.6 million. We funded our total distributions paid, which includes net cash distributions and dividends reinvested by stockholders, with $3.8 million of cash flow from operating activities and $1.1 million of prior period cash flow from operating activities in excess of distributions paid. For purposes of determining the source of distributions paid, we assume first that we use cash flow from operating activities from the relevant or prior periods to fund distribution payments.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, we paid aggregate distributions of $3.6 million, including $1.4 million of distributions paid in cash and $2.2 million of distributions reinvested through our dividend reinvestment plan. Our net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $7.5 million and cash flow used in operations was $0.1 million. We funded our total distributions paid, which includes net cash distributions and dividends reinvested by stockholders with $5.7 million of prior period cash flow from operating activities in excess of distributions paid. For purposes of determining the source of distributions paid, we assume first that we use cash flow from operating activities from the relevant or prior periods to fund distribution payments.
To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operating activities, we will have less funds available for the acquisition of real estate investments, the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced and subsequent investors will experience dilution.

The loss of or the inability to retain or obtain key real estate and debt finance professionals at our advisor could delay or hinder implementation of our investment strategies, which could limit our ability to pay distributions and decrease the value of an investment in us.
Our success depends to a significant degree upon the contributions of Peter M. Bren, Keith D. Hall and Peter McMillan III, and Charles J. Schreiber, Jr., each of whom would be difficult to replace. Neither we nor our affiliates have employment agreements with Messrs. Bren, Hall McMillan or Schreiber.McMillan. Messrs. Bren, Hall McMillan and SchreiberMcMillan may not remain associated with us, our advisor or its affiliates. If any of these persons were to cease their association with us, our advisor or its affiliates, we may be unable to find suitable replacements and our operating results could suffer as a result. We do not intend to maintain key person life insurance on any person. We believe that our future success depends, in large part, upon our advisor’s and its affiliates’ ability to attract and retain highly skilled managerial, operational and marketing professionals. Competition for such professionals is intense, and our advisor and its affiliates may be unsuccessful in attracting and retaining such skilled individuals. If we lose or are unable to retain or obtain the services of highly skilled professionals our ability to implement our investment strategies could be delayed or hindered, and the value of an investment in us may decline. Furthermore, if some or all of the key real estate and debt finance professionals at KBS Capital Advisors are internalized by KBS REIT II, KBS REIT III, KBS Strategic Opportunity REITthese individuals may become employees of another Pacific Oak-sponsored program in an internalization transaction or, KBS Growth & Income REIT, KBS Capital Advisorsif we internalize our advisor, may need to replace such professionals, or we may need to findnot become our employees or an advisor to replace the management services KBS Capital Advisors provides to us. In such eventas a result of their relationship with other Pacific Oak-sponsored programs. If these events occur, our operating performance and the return on an investment in us could suffer.
Our rights and the rights of our stockholders to recover claims against our independent directors are limited, which could reduce our stockholders’ and their recovery against our independent directors if they negligently cause us to incur losses.
Maryland law provides that a director has no liability in that capacity if he performs his duties in good faith, in a manner he reasonably believes to be in our best interest and with the care that an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. Our charter provides that no independent director shall be liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages and that we will generally indemnify them for losses unless they are grossly negligent or engage in willful misconduct. As a result, our stockholders and us may have more limited rights against our independent directors than might otherwise exist under common law, which could reduce our stockholders and our recovery from these persons if they act in a negligent manner. In addition, we may be obligated to fund the defense costs incurred by our independent directors (as well as by our other directors, officers, employees (if we ever have employees) and agents) in some cases, which would decrease the cash otherwise available for distribution.
We have no target investment allocation and we may change our targeted investments without stockholder consent.
Except with respect to unimproved or non-income producing property, we are not limited in the percentage of net proceeds of our initial public offering that we may allocate to a specific real estate asset type. Thus, we may make all of our investments in investments which present an increased risk of loss. In addition, we may change our targeted investments and investment guidelines at any time without the consent of our stockholders, which could result in our making investments that are different from, and possibly riskier than, our targeted investments described our prospectus. A change in our targeted investments or investment guidelines may increase our exposure to interest rate risk, default risk and real estate market fluctuations, all of which could adversely affect the value of our common stock and our ability to pay distributions.

We face risks associated with security breaches through cyber-attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our information technology (“IT”) networks and related systems.
We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusions over the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to systems inside our organization, and other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber-attack or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day-to-day operations. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems, and we have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, there can be no assurance that our security efforts and measures will be effective or that attempted security breaches or disruptions would not be successful or damaging. Even the most well-protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases are designed not be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to entirely mitigate this risk.

A security breach or other significant disruption involving our IT networks and related systems could:
disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems and therefore our operations;
result in misstated financial reports, violations of loan covenants and/or missed reporting deadlines;
result in our inability to properly monitor our compliance with the rules and regulations regarding our qualification as a REIT;
result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of, proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could use to compete against us or which could expose us to damage claims by third-parties for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes;
require significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result;
subject us to claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements; or
damage our reputation among our stockholders.
In addition, we rely on the security systems of our third-party managers and franchisors to protect proprietary and customer information from these threats.
Any or all of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Risks Related to Conflicts of Interest
KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and its affiliates, including all of our executive officers and our affiliated directors and other key real estate and debt finance professionals, face conflicts of interest caused by their compensation arrangements with us and with other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs and KBS-advisedPacific Oak-advised investors, which could result in actions that are not in the long-term best interests of our stockholders.
All of our executive officers and our affiliated directors and other key real estate and debt finance professionals are also officers, directors, managers, key professionals and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor, our dealer manager and/or other KBS-affiliatedPacific Oak-affiliated entities. KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and its affiliates receive substantial fees from us. These fees could influence our advisor’s advice to us as well as the judgment of its affiliates. Among other matters, these compensation arrangements could affect their judgment with respect to:
the continuation, renewal or enforcement of our agreements with KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and its affiliates, including the advisory agreement and the dealer manager agreement;
offerings of equity by us, which entitle KBSPacific Oak Capital Markets Group to dealer-manager fees and will likely entitle KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors to increased acquisition and origination fees and asset management fees;
sales of investments, which entitle KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors to disposition fees and possible subordinated incentive fees;
acquisitions of investments and originations of loans, which entitle KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors to acquisition and origination fees based on the cost of the investment and asset management fees and, in the case of acquisitions of investments from other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs, might entitle affiliates of KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors to disposition fees and possible subordinated incentive fees in connection with its services for the seller;
12

Table of Contents
borrowings to acquire investments and to originate loans, which borrowings increase the acquisition and origination fees payable to KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors;
whether and when we seek to list our common stock on a national securities exchange, which listing could entitle KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors to a subordinated incentive fee; and
whether and when we seek to sell the company or its assets, which sale could entitle KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors to a disposition fee and/or a subordinated incentive fee.
The fees our advisor receives in connection with transactions involving the acquisition or origination of an asset are based on the cost of the investment, and not based on the quality of the investment or the quality of the services rendered to us. This may influence our advisor to recommend riskier transactions to us and increase our stockholders’ risk of loss.
Further, existing and future KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs and KBS-advisedPacific Oak-advised investors and Messrs. Bren, Hall McMillan and SchreiberMcMillan generally are not and will not be prohibited from engaging, directly or indirectly, in any business or from possessing interests in any other business venture or ventures, including businesses and ventures involved in the acquisition, origination, development, ownership, leasing or sale of real estate-related investments.

KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and the key real estate professionals associated with KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors face conflicts of interest relating to the leasing and disposition of properties due to their relationship with other real estate programs and such conflicts may not be resolved in our favor, which could limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders and reduce our stockholders’ overall investment return.
We rely on our sponsor, KBS HoldingsPacific Oak Holding Group, LLC, and other key real estate professionals at our advisor, including Messrs. Bren, Hall and McMillan, to identify suitable investment opportunities for us and Schreiber, to supervise the property management and leasing and eventual disposition of properties. KBS REIT II, KBS REIT III, KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT and KBS Growth & Income REIT arePOSOR I is also advised by KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors. Keppel-KBSKeppel Pacific Oak US REIT is externally managed by a joint venture between (i) an entity in which Messrs. Hall and McMillan have an indirect ownership interest and (ii) Keppel Capital Holding Pte. Ltd., which is not affiliated with us, and has also engaged KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors to act as its asset manager in the United States. Through KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors these programs rely on many of the same real estate and debt finance professionals as will future programs advised by our advisor or professionals associated with our advisor. Messrs. Bren and Schreiber and several of the other key real estate and debt finance professionals at KBS Capital Advisors are also the key real estate and debt finance professionals at KBS Realty Advisors and its affiliates, the advisors to the private KBS-sponsored programs and the investment advisors to KBS-advised investors. In addition, Messrs. Hall and McMillan have founded Pacific Oaks Capital Group, a real estate management company, and its family of companies in 2018. As such, we and other programs willthat currently have funds available for investment rely on many of the same real estate and debt finance professionals employed by KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors, as will future KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs, KBS-advisedPacific Oak-advised investors and other programs sponsored by Messrs.

In addition, we and other programs advised by KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and its affiliates or key real estate professionals, rely on our sponsor and other key real estate professionals at our advisor to sell our properties. These programs and KBS-advisedPacific Oak-advised investors may possess properties in similar locations and/or of the same property types as ours and may be attempting to sell these properties at the same time we are attempting to sell some of our properties. If our advisor directs potential purchasers to properties owned by other programs they advise when it could direct such purchasers to our properties, we may be unable to sell some or all of our properties at the time or at the price we otherwise would, which could limit our ability to pay distributions and reduce our stockholders’ overall investment return.
KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors will face conflicts of interest relating to joint ventures that we may form with affiliates of KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors, which conflicts could result in a disproportionate benefit to the other venture partners at our expense.
If approved by a majority of our independent directors, we may enter into joint venture agreements with other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs or affiliated entities for the acquisition, development or improvement of properties or other investments. KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and KBS Realty Advisors and its affiliates, the advisors to the other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs and the investment advisers to KBS-advisedPacific Oak-advised investors, have some of the same executive officers, directors and other key real estate and debt finance professionals; and these persons will face conflicts of interest in determining which KBSPacific Oak program or investor should enter into any particular joint venture agreement. These persons may also face a conflict in structuring the terms of the relationship between our interests and the interests of the KBS-affiliatedPacific Oak-affiliated co-venturer and in managing the joint venture. Any joint venture agreement or transaction between us and a KBS-affiliatedPacific Oak-affiliated co-venturer will not have the benefit of arm’s-length negotiation of the type normally conducted between unrelated co-venturers. The KBS-affiliatedPacific Oak-affiliated co-venturer may have economic or business interests or goals that are or may become inconsistent with our business interests or goals. These co-venturers may thus benefit to our and our investors’ detriment.

Pacific Oak Capital Advisors, the real estate and debt finance professionals assembled by our advisor, their affiliates and our officers face competing demands on their time and this may cause our operations and anour stockholders’ investment in us to suffer.
We rely on KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and the real estate, management, accounting and debt finance professionals our advisor has assembled, including Messrs. Bren, Hall, McMillan Schreiber and Jeffrey K. Waldvogel and Ms. Stacie K. Yamane,Michael A. Bender for the day-to-day operation of our business. KBS REIT II, KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, KBS REIT III and KBS Growth & Income REIT are also advised by KBS Capital Advisors and rely on many of the same real estate, debt finance, management and accounting professionals, as will future KBS-sponsored programs and KBS-advised investors. Further, our officers and affiliated directors are also officers and/or an affiliated directors of some or all of the other public KBS-sponsored programs. Messrs. Bren, Schreiber and Waldvogel and Ms. Yamane are also executive officers of KBS REIT II, KBS REIT III, and KBS Growth & Income REIT; and Messrs. Hall, McMillan, and Waldvogel and Ms. YamaneBender are executive officers of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT. In addition, Messrs. Bren and Schreiber are executive officers of KBS Realty Advisors and its affiliates, the advisors of the private KBS-sponsored programs and the investment advisors to KBS-advised investors.POSOR I. As a result of their interests in other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak programs, their obligations to other KBS-advised investors and the fact that they engage in and they will continue to engage in other business activities on behalf of themselves and others, Messrs. Bren, Hall, McMillan Schreiber and Waldvogel and Ms. YamaneBender face conflicts of interest in allocating their time among us, KBS REIT II, KBS REIT III, KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, KBS Growth & Income REIT, KBSPOSOR I, Pacific Oak Capital Advisors and other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs and KBS-advised investors, as well as other business activities in which they are involved. In addition, KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and KBS Realty Advisors and itstheir affiliates share many of the same key real estate and debt finance professionals. During times of intense activity in other programs and ventures, these individuals may devote less time and fewer resources to our business than are necessary or appropriate to manage our business. Furthermore, some or all of these individuals may become employees of another KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored program in an internalization transaction or, if we internalize our advisor, may not become our employees as a result of their relationship with other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs. If these events occur, the returns on our investments, and the value of an investment in us,our stockholders’ investments, may decline.
All of our executive officers and some of our affiliated directors and the key real estate and debt finance professionals assembled by our advisor face conflicts of interest related to their positions and/or interests in KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and its affiliates, including our dealer manager, which could hinder our ability to implement our business strategy and to generate returns to our stockholders.
All of our executive officers, andsome of our affiliated directors and other key real estate and debt finance professionals assembled by our advisor are also executive officers, directors, managers, key professionals and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor, our dealer manager and/orand other KBS-affiliatedaffiliated Pacific Oak entities. Through KBS-affiliatedPacific Oak-affiliated entities, some of these persons also serve as the investment advisors to KBS-advisedinstitutional investors in real estate and real estate-related assets and through KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and its affiliates these persons serve as the advisor to KBS REIT II, KBS REIT III, KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, KBS Growth & Income REIT,POSOR I and other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs. As a result, they owe fiduciary duties to each of these entities, their members and limited partners and these investors, which fiduciary duties may from time to time conflict with the fiduciary duties that they owe to us and our stockholders. Their loyalties to these other entities and investors could result in action or inaction that is detrimental to our business, which could harm the implementation of our business strategy and our investment and leasing opportunities. Further, Messrs. Bren, Hall McMillan and SchreiberMcMillan and existing and future KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs and KBS-advisedPacific Oak-advised investors generally are not and will not be prohibited from engaging, directly or indirectly, in any business or from possessing interests in any other business venture or ventures, including businesses and ventures involved in the acquisition, development, ownership, leasing or sale of real estate investments. If we do not successfully implement our business strategy, we may be unable to generate the cash needed to paymake distributions to our stockholders and to maintain or increase the value of our assets.

Our board of directors’ loyalties to KBS Strategic Opportunity REITPOSOR I and Keppel-KBSKeppel Pacific Oak US REIT and possibly to future KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs could influence its judgment, resulting in actions that may not be in our stockholders’ best interest or that result in a disproportionate benefit to another KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored program at our expense.
Three of our directors, including one of our independent directors, Mr. Yee, are also directors of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT.POSOR I. In addition, one of our directors, Mr. McMillan, is also a director of Keppel-KBSKeppel Pacific Oak US REIT. The loyalties of our directors serving on the boards of directors of KBS Strategic Opportunity REITPOSOR I and Keppel-KBSKeppel Pacific Oak US REIT, or possibly on the boards of directors of future KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs, may influence the judgment of our board when considering issues for us that also may affect other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs, such as the following:
The conflicts committee of our board must evaluate the performance of KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors with respect to whether KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors is presenting to us our fair share of investment opportunities. If our advisor is not presenting a sufficient number of investment opportunities to us because it is presenting many opportunities to other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs or if our advisor is giving preferential treatment to other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs in this regard, the conflicts committee may not be well suited to enforce our rights under the terms of the advisory agreement or to seek a new advisor.

We could enter into transactions with other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs, such as property sales, acquisitions or financing arrangements. Such transactions might entitle KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors or its affiliates to fees and other compensation from both parties to the transaction. For example, acquisitions from other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs might entitle KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors or its affiliates to disposition fees and possible subordinated incentive fees in connection with its services for the seller in addition to acquisition and origination fees and other fees that we might pay to KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors in connection with such transaction. Similarly, property sales to other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs might entitle KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors or its affiliates to acquisition and origination fees in connection with its services to the purchaser in addition to disposition and other fees that we might pay to KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors in connection with such transaction. Decisions of our board of directors and the conflicts committee regarding the terms of those transactions may be influenced by our board’s and the conflicts committee’s loyalties to such other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs.
A decision of our board of directors or the conflicts committee regarding the timing of a debt or equity offering could be influenced by concerns that such offering would compete with an offering of other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs.
A decision of our board of directors or the conflicts committee regarding the timing of property sales could be influenced by concerns that the sales would compete with those of other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs.
A decision of our board of directors or the conflicts committee regarding whether and when we seek to list our shares of common stock on a national securities exchange could be influenced by concerns that such listing could adversely affect the sales efforts for other KBS-sponsoredPacific Oak-sponsored programs, depending on the price at which our shares trade.
Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure
Our charter limits the number of shares a person may own, which may discourage a takeover that could otherwise result in a premium price to our stockholders.
Our charter, with certain exceptions, authorizes our directors to take such actions as are necessary and desirable to preserve our qualification as a REIT. To help us comply with the REIT ownership requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, our charter prohibits a person from directly or constructively owning more than 9.8% of our outstanding shares, unless exempted by our board of directors. This restriction may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us, including an extraordinary transaction (such as a merger, tender offer or sale of all or substantially all of our assets) that might provide a premium price for holders of our common stock.
Our charter permits our board of directors to issue stock with terms that may subordinate the rights of our common stockholders or discourage a third party from acquiring us in a manner that could result in a premium price to our stockholders.
Our board of directors may classify or reclassify any unissued common stock or preferred stock and establish the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption of any such stock. Thus, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of preferred stock with priority as to distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation over the rights of the holders of our common stock. Such preferred stock could also have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us, including an extraordinary transaction (such as a merger, tender offer or sale of all or substantially all of our assets) that might provide a premium price to holders of our common stock.

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

Our stockholders’ investment return may be reduced if we are required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act; if we or our subsidiaries become an unregistered investment company, we could not continue our business.
Neither we nor any of our subsidiaries intend to register as investment companies under the Investment Company Act. If we or our subsidiaries were obligated to register as investment companies, we would have to comply with a variety of substantive requirements under the Investment Company Act that impose, among other things:
limitations on capital structure;
restrictions on specified investments;
prohibitions on transactions with affiliates; and
compliance with reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy disclosure and other rules and regulations that would significantly increase our operating expenses.
Under the relevant provisions of Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act, an investment company is any issuer that:
pursuant to Section 3(a)(1)(A) is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities (the “primarily engaged test”); or
pursuant to Section 3(a)(1)(C) is engaged or proposes to engage in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and owns or proposes to acquire “investment securities” having a value exceeding 40% of the value of such issuer’s total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis (the “40% test”). “Investment securities” excludes U.S. government securities and securities of majority-owned subsidiaries that are not themselves investment companies and are not relying on the exception from the definition of investment company under Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) (relating to private investment companies).
We believe that neither we nor our Operating Partnership will be required to register as an investment company based on the following analyses. With respect to the 40% test, most of the entities through which we and our Operating Partnership own our assets will be majority-owned subsidiaries that will not themselves be investment companies and will not be relying on the exceptions from the definition of investment company under Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7).
With respect to the primarily engaged test, we and our Operating Partnership will be holding companies and do not intend to invest or trade in securities ourselves. Rather, through the majority-owned subsidiaries of our Operating Partnership, we and our Operating Partnership will be primarily engaged in the non-investment company businesses of these subsidiaries, namely the business of purchasing or otherwise acquiring real estate and real estate-related assets.

If any of the subsidiaries of our Operating Partnership fail to meet the 40% test, we believe they will usually, if not always, be able to rely on Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the Investment Company Act for an exception from the definition of an investment company. (Otherwise, they should be able to rely on the exceptions for private investment companies pursuant to Section 3(c)(1) and Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act.) As reflected in no-action letters, the SEC staff’s position on Section 3(c)(5)(C) generally requires that an issuer maintain at least 55% of its assets in “mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate,” or qualifying assets; at least 80% of its assets in qualifying assets plus real estate-related assets; and no more than 20% of the value of its assets in other than qualifying assets and real estate-related assets, which we refer to as miscellaneous assets. To constitute a qualifying asset under this 55% requirement, a real estate interest must meet various criteria based on no-action letters. We expect that any of the subsidiaries of our Operating Partnership relying on Section 3(c)(5)(C) will invest at least 55% of its assets in qualifying assets, and approximately an additional 25% of its assets in other types of real estate-related assets. If any subsidiary relies on Section 3(c)(5)(C), we expect to rely on guidance published by the SEC staff or on our analyses of guidance published with respect to types of assets to determine which assets are qualifying real estate assets and real estate-related assets.

To maintain compliance with the Investment Company Act, our subsidiaries may be unable to sell assets we would otherwise want them to sell and may need to sell assets we would otherwise wish them to retain. In addition, our subsidiaries may have to acquire additional assets that they might not otherwise have acquired or may have to forego opportunities to make investments that we would otherwise want them to make and would be important to our investment strategy. Moreover, the SEC or its staff may issue interpretations with respect to various types of assets that are contrary to our views and current SEC staff interpretations are subject to change, which increases the risk of non-compliance and the risk that we may be forced to make adverse changes to our portfolio. In this regard, we note that in 2011 the SEC issued a concept release indicating that the SEC and its staff were reviewing interpretive issues relating to Section 3(c)(5)(C) and soliciting views on the application of Section 3(c)(5)(C) to companies engaged in the business of acquiring mortgages and mortgage related instruments. If we were required to register as an investment company but failed to do so, we would be prohibited from engaging in our business and criminal and civil actions could be brought against us. In addition, our contracts would be unenforceable unless a court required enforcement and a court could appoint a receiver to take control of us and liquidate our business. For more information related to compliance with the Investment Company Act, see “Investment Objectives and Criteria-Investment Limitations Under the Investment Company Act of 1940.”
Rapid changes in the values of our assets may make it more difficult for us to maintain our qualification as a REIT or our exception from the definition of an investment company under the Investment Company Act.
If the market value or income potential of our qualifying real estate assets changes as compared to the market value or income potential of our non-qualifying assets, or if the market value or income potential of our assets that are considered “real estate-related assets” under the Investment Company Act or REIT qualification tests changes as compared to the market value or income potential of our assets that are not considered “real estate-related assets” under the Investment Company Act or REIT qualification tests, whether as a result of increased interest rates, prepayment rates or other factors, we may need to modify our investment portfolio in order to maintain our REIT qualification or exception from the definition of an investment company. If the decline in asset values or income occurs quickly, this may be especially difficult, if not impossible, to accomplish. This difficulty may be exacerbated by the illiquid nature of many of the assets that we may own. We may have to make investment decisions that we otherwise would not make absent REIT and Investment Company Act considerations.
Our stockholders have limited control over changes in our policies and operations, which increases the uncertainty and risks our stockholders face.
Our board of directors determines our major policies, including our policies regarding financing, growth, debt capitalization, REIT qualification and distributions. Our board of directors may amend or revise these and other policies without a vote of the stockholders. Under Maryland General Corporation Law and our charter, our stockholders have a right to vote only on limited matters. Our board’s broad discretion in setting policies and our stockholders’ inability to exert control over those policies increases the uncertainty and risks stockholders face.

Because our charter does not require our listing or liquidation by a specified date, or at all, investors should only purchase our shares as a long-term investment and be prepared to hold them for an indefinite period of time.
We may seek to list our shares of common stock on a national securities exchange if our independent directors believe listing would be in the best interest of our stockholders. If we do not list our shares of common stock on a national securities exchange within ten years from commencement of our initial public offering, our charter requires that we either seek stockholder approval of the liquidation of the company; or postpone the decision of whether to liquidate the company, if a majority of the conflicts committee determines that liquidation is not then in the best interests of the stockholders. If a majority of the conflicts committee does determine that liquidation is not then in the best interests of our stockholders, our charter requires that the conflicts committee revisit the issue of liquidation at least annually. Further postponement of listing or stockholder action regarding liquidation would only be permitted if a majority of the conflicts committee again determined that liquidation would not be in the best interest of our stockholders. If we sought and failed to obtain stockholder approval of our liquidation, our charter would not require us to list or liquidate and would not require the conflicts committee to revisit the issue of liquidation, and we could continue to operate as before. Because our charter does not require our listing or liquidation by a specified date, or at all, investors should only purchase our shares as a long-term investment and be prepared to hold them for an indefinite period of time.

If funds are not available from our dividend reinvestment plan offering for general corporate purposes, then we may have to use a greater proportion of our cash flow from operations to meet our general cash requirements, which would reduce cash available for distributions and limit our ability to redeem shares under our share redemption program.
We depend on the proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan offering for general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, the repurchase of shares under our share redemption program; reserves required by any financings of our investments; future funding obligations under any real estate loan receivable we acquire or originate; the acquisition or origination of assets, which would include payment of acquisition and origination fees to our advisor; the repayment of debt; and expenses relating to our investments, such as purchasing a loan senior to ours to protect our junior position in the event of a default by the borrower on the senior loan, making protective advances to preserve collateral securing a loan, or making capital and tenant improvements or paying leasing costs and commissions related to real property. We cannot predict with any certainty how much, if any, dividend reinvestment plan proceeds will be available for general corporate purposes. If such funds are not available from our dividend reinvestment plan offering, then we may have to use a greater proportion of our cash flow from operations to meet our general cash requirements, which would reduce cash available for distributions and could limit our ability to redeem shares under our share redemption program.
The estimated NAV per share of our common stock may not reflect the value that stockholders will receive for their investment and does not take into account how developments subsequent to the valuation date related to individual assets, the financial or real estate markets or other events may have increased or decreased the value of our portfolio.
On December 6, 2018,17, 2019, our board of directors approved an estimated NAV per share of our common stock of $9.65$10.25 based on the estimated value of the our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, or NAV, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2018, see Part II, Item 5 “Market2019, with the exception of the following adjustments: (i) our consolidated investments in real estate properties were valued as of October 31, 2019; (ii) an adjustment to reduce cash for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Mattersthe amount of capital expenditures incurred in October 2019; (iii) an adjustment for disposition costs and Issuer Purchasesfees incurred in connection with the disposition of Equity Securities – Market Information.” There2200 Paseo Verde. Other than the adjustments, there were no material changes between September 30, 20182019 and December 6, 201817, 2019 that impacted the overall estimated NAV per share. We providedare providing this estimated NAV per share to assist broker-dealers who participatethat participated in thisour initial public offering in meeting their customer account statement reporting obligations under NASDNational Association of Securities Dealers Conduct Rule 2340 as required by FINRA.the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). This valuation was performed in accordance with the provisions of and also to comply with Practice Guideline 2013–01, Valuations of Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REITs, issued by the IPAInstitute for Portfolio Alternatives (formerly known as the Investment Program Association) (“IPA”) in April 2013 (the “IPA Valuation Guidelines.Guidelines”).
As with any valuation methodology, the methodologies used are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete.
Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated NAV per share of our common stock and this difference could be significant, nor does it represent a liquidation value of our assets and liabilities or the price at which our shares of common stock would trade on a national securities exchange. The estimated NAV per share is not audited and does not represent the fair value of our assets less the fair value of our liabilities according to GAAP.

Accordingly, with respect to our estimated NAV per share, we can give no assurance that:
a stockholder would be able to resell his or her shares at our estimated NAV per share;
a stockholder would ultimately realize distributions per share equal to our estimated NAV per share upon liquidation of our assets and settlement of our liabilities or a sale of our company;
our shares of common stock would trade at our estimated NAV per share on a national securities exchange;
a third party would offer our estimated NAV per share in an arm’s-length transaction to purchase all or substantially all of our shares of common stock;
another independent third-party appraiser or third-party valuation firm would agree with our estimated NAV per share; or
the methodology used to determine our estimated NAV per share would be acceptable to FINRA for compliance with ERISA reporting requirements.
Further,For a full description of the methodologies and assumptions used to value our estimated NAV per share is based onassets and liabilities in connection with the calculation of the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, there were 17,963,199 and 12,100,736 shares of Class A and Class T common stock issued and outstanding, respectively. We did not make any adjustments to our estimated NAV subsequent to September 30, 2018, including adjustments relating to the following, among others: (i) the issuance of common stock and the payment of related offering costs; (ii) net operating income earned and distributions declared; and (iii) the redemption of shares. The value of our shares will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to the capital raised during our offering stage, future investments, the performance of individual assets in our portfolio, the management of those assets, and the real estate and finance markets. Our estimated NAV per share, does not reflect a discountsee Part II, Item 5, “Market for the fact that we are externally managed, nor does it reflect a real estate portfolio premium/discount versus the sumRegistrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of the individual property values.

Table of certain of our debt obligations, the impact of restrictions on the assumption of debt. The estimated NAV per share does not take into consideration acquisition-related costs and financing costs related to future acquisitions. We expect to utilize our advisor and/or an independent valuation firm to update our estimated NAV per share annually. We cannot assure our stockholders that our estimated NAV per share will increase or that it will not decrease.Contents
Payment of fees to KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and its affiliates reduces cash available for distribution and increases the risk that stockholders will not be able to recover the amount of an investment in our shares.
KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors and its affiliates perform services for us in connection with the selection, acquisition, origination, management, and administration of our investments. We pay them substantial fees for these services, which will result in immediate dilution to the value of an investment in us and reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to stockholders. Compensation to be paid to our advisor may be increased without stockholder approval, which would further dilute our stockholders’ investment and reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to stockholders.
We may also pay significant fees during our listing/liquidation stage. Although most of the fees payable during our listing/liquidation stage are contingent on our investors first enjoying agreed-upon investment returns, the investment-return thresholds may be reduced subject to approval by our conflicts committee and the other limitations in our charter.
These fees increase the risk that the amount of cash available for distribution to common stockholders upon a liquidation of our portfolio would be less than the estimated NAV per share. These substantial fees and other payments also increase the risk that our stockholders will not be able to resell their shares at a profit, even if our shares are listed on a national securities exchange.
Failure to procure adequate capital and funding would negatively impact our results and may, in turn, negatively affect our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.
We will depend upon the availability of adequate funding and capital for our operations. The failure to secure acceptable financing could reduce our taxable income, as our investments would no longer generate the same level of net interest income due to the lack of funding or increase in funding costs. A reduction in our net income could reduce our liquidity and our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. We cannot assure our stockholders that any, or sufficient, funding or capital will be available to us in the future on terms that are acceptable to us. Therefore, in the event that we cannot obtain sufficient funding on acceptable terms, there may be a negative impact on our ability to pay distributions.

Stockholders may be more likely to sustain a loss on their investment because our sponsors do not have as strong an economic incentive to avoid losses as do sponsors who have made significant equity investments in their companies.
KBS Holdings, through its ownership interest in KBS Capital Advisors has only invested $200,000 in us through the purchase of 21,739 shares of our Class A common stock at $9.20 per share. In addition, Messrs. Hall and McMillan, through their ownership interest in Willowbrook Capital Group LLC have invested $2,000,000 in us through the purchase of 240,211 shares of our Class A common stock at $8.33 per share. Therefore, if we are successful in raising enough proceeds to reimburse our sponsors for our significant organizationformer sponsor and offering expenses, our sponsors willcurrent sponsor have have little exposure to loss in the value of our shares. Without this exposure, our stockholders may be at a greater risk of loss because our sponsors do not have as much to lose from a decrease in the value of our shares as do those sponsors who make more significant equity investments in their companies.
Although we will not currently be afforded the protection of the Maryland General Corporation Law relating to deterring or defending hostile takeovers, our board of directors could opt into these provisions of Maryland law in the future, which may discourage others from trying to acquire control of us and may prevent our stockholders from receiving a premium price for their stock in connection with a business combination.
Under Maryland law, “business combinations” between a Maryland corporation and certain interested stockholders or affiliates of interested stockholders are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. These business combinations include a merger, consolidation, share exchange, or, in circumstances specified in the statute, an asset transfer or issuance or reclassification of equity securities. Also under Maryland law, control shares of a Maryland corporation acquired in a control share acquisition have no voting rights except to the extent approved by a vote of two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter. Shares owned by the acquirer, an officer of the corporation or an employee of the corporation who is also a director of the corporation are excluded from the vote on whether to accord voting rights to the control shares. Should our board of directors opt into these provisions of Maryland law, it may discourage others from trying to acquire control of us and increase the difficulty of consummating any offer. Similarly, provisions of Title 3, Subtitle 8 of the Maryland General Corporation Law could provide similar anti-takeover protection.
Our charter includes an anti-takeover provision that may discourage a stockholder from launching a tender offer for our shares.
Our charter provides that any tender offer made by a stockholder, including any “mini-tender” offer, must comply with most provisions of Regulation 14D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The offering stockholder must provide our company notice of such tender offer at least 10 business days before initiating the tender offer. If the offering stockholder does not comply with these requirements, all tendering stockholders will have the ability to rescind the tender of their shares. In addition, the noncomplying stockholder shall be responsible for all of our company’s expenses in connection with that stockholder’s noncompliance. This provision of our charter may discourage a stockholder from initiating a tender offer for our shares and prevent our stockholders from receiving a premium price for their shares in such a transaction.

Risks Related to Our Investments
Our investments will be subject to the risks typically associated with real estate.
We intend to invest in a portfolio of real estate-related loans, opportunistic real estate, real estate equity securities and other real estate-related investments, including direct investments in opportunistic real estate. Each of these investments will be subject to the risks typically associated with real estate. Our loans held for investment will generally be directly or indirectly secured by a lien on real property (or the equity interests in an entity that owns real property) that, upon the occurrence of a default on the loan, could result in our acquiring ownership of the property. We will not know whether the values of the properties ultimately securing our loans will remain at the levels existing on the dates of origination or acquisition of those loans. If the values of the properties securing the loans drop, our risk will increase because of the lower value of the security associated with such loans. In this manner, real estate values could impact the values of our loan investments. Our investments in residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations and other real estate-related investments may be similarly affected by real estate property values. The value of real estate may be adversely affected by a number of risks, including:
natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes, floods and floods;pandemics;
acts of war or terrorism, including the consequences of terrorist attacks, such as those that occurred on September 11, 2001;
adverse changes in national and local economic and real estate conditions;
an oversupply of (or a reduction in demand for) space in the areas where particular properties are located and the attractiveness of particular properties to prospective tenants;
changes in governmental laws and regulations, fiscal policies and zoning ordinances and the related costs of compliance therewith and the potential for liability under applicable laws;
costs of remediation and liabilities associated with environmental conditions affecting properties; and
the potential for uninsured or underinsuredunder insured property losses.
The value of each property is affected significantly by its ability to generate cash flow and net income, which in turn depends on the amount of rental or other income that can be generated net of expenses required to be incurred with respect to the property. Many expenditures associated with properties (such as operating expenses and capital expenditures) cannot be reduced when there is a reduction in income from the properties. These factors may have a material adverse effect on the ability of our borrowers to pay their loans and our tenants to pay their rent, as well as on the value that we can realize from other real estate-related assets we originate, own or acquire.
Investments in non-performing real estate assets involve greater risks than investments in stabilized, performing assets and make our future performance more difficult to predict.
Traditional performance metrics of real estate assets are generally not meaningful for non-performing real estate. Non-performing properties, for example, do not have stabilized occupancy rates to provide a useful measure of revenue. Similarly, non-performing loans do not have a consistent stream of loan servicing or interest payments to provide a useful measure of revenue. In addition, for non-performing loans, often there is no expectation that the face amount of the note will be paid in full. Appraisals may provide a sense of the value of the investment, but any appraisal of the property or property securing the loan will be based on numerous estimates, judgments and assumptions that significantly affect the appraised value of the property securing the loan. Further, an appraisal of a nonstabilized property, in particular, involves a high degree of subjectivity due to high vacancy levels and uncertainties with respect to future market rental rates and timing of lease-up and stabilization. Accordingly, different assumptions may materially change the appraised value of the property. In addition, the value of the property will change over time.
We may pursue more than one strategy to create value in a non-performing real estate investment. With respect to a property, these strategies may include development, redevelopment, or lease-up of such property. With respect to a loan, these strategies may include negotiating with the borrower for a reduced payoff, restructuring the terms of the loan or enforcing our rights as lender under the loan and foreclosing on the collateral securing the loan.
The factors described above make it challenging to evaluate non-performing investments.
We are dependent on the third-party managers of our hotels.
We currently own two hotel properties. In order to qualify as a REIT, we are not able to operate any hotel properties or participate in the decisions affecting the daily operations of our hotels. We will lease any hotels we acquire to a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) in which we may own up to a 100% interest. Our TRS will enter into management agreements with eligible independent contractors that are not our subsidiaries or otherwise controlled by us to manage the hotels. Thus, independent hotel operators, under management agreements with our TRS, will control the daily operations of our hotels.

20

Table of Contents
We depend on these independent management companies to adequately operate our hotels as provided in the management agreements. We will not have the authority to require any hotel to be operated in a particular manner or to govern any particular aspect of the daily operations of any hotel (for instance, setting room rates). Thus, even if we believe our hotels are being operated inefficiently or in a manner that does not result in satisfactory occupancy rates, revenue per available room and average daily rates, we may not be able to force the management company to change its method of operation of our hotels. We can only seek redress if a management company violates the terms of the applicable management agreement with the TRS, and then only to the extent of the remedies provided for under the terms of the management agreement. In the event that we need to replace our management company, we may be required by the terms of the management agreement to pay substantial termination fees and may experience significant disruptions at the affected hotel.
We may have to make significant capital expenditures to maintain our hotels.
Hotels have an ongoing need for renovations and other capital improvements, including replacements of furniture, fixtures and equipment. Generally, we will be responsible for the costs of these capital improvements, which gives rise to the following risks:
cost overruns and delays;
renovations can be disruptive to operations and can displace revenue at the hotels, including revenue lost while rooms under renovation are out of service;
the cost of funding renovations and the possibility that financing for these renovations may not be available on attractive terms; and
the risk that the return on our investment in these capital improvements will not be what we expect.
If we have insufficient cash flow from operations to fund needed capital expenditures, then we will need to obtain financing or use proceeds from our initial public offering to fund future capital improvements.
General economic conditions and discretionary consumer spending may affect our hotels and lower the return on our stockholders’ investment.
The operations of our hotels will depend upon a number of factors relating to discretionary consumer spending. Unfavorable local, regional or national economic developments or uncertainties regarding future economic prospects as a result of terrorist attacks, military activity or natural disasters could reduce consumer spending in the markets in which we own hotels and adversely affect the operation of any hotels we may acquire. Consumer spending on luxury goods, travel and other leisure may decline as a result of lower consumer confidence levels, even if prevailing economic conditions are favorable. In an economic downturn, consumer discretionary spending levels generally decline, at times resulting in disproportionately large reductions in expenditures on luxury goods, travel and other leisure activities. Certain of the classes of properties that we may acquire may be unable to maintain their profitability during periods of adverse economic conditions or low consumer confidence, which could in turn affect the ability of operators to make scheduled rent payments to us.
Seasonal revenue variations in our hotels require the operators of such assets to manage cash flow properly over time to meet their non-seasonal scheduled rent payments to us.
Certain of our hotels may be seasonal in nature. For example, the typical beach season begins in early May and runs through August, during which time beach resorts generate the vast majority of their annual revenues. Revenues and profits at beach resorts and their related properties are substantially lower and historically result in losses during the winter months due to the weather. As a result of the seasonal nature of certain industries that may be conducted on properties we acquire, these businesses will experience seasonal variations in revenues that may require our operators to supplement revenue at their properties in order to be able to make scheduled rent payments to us. The failure of an operator or a tenant to manage its cash flow properly may result in such operator or tenant having insufficient cash on hand to make its scheduled payments to us during seasonally slow periods, which may adversely affect our cash available for distribution to stockholders.
Adverse weather conditions may affect operations of our hotels or reduce our operators’ ability to make scheduled rent payments to us, which could reduce our cash flow from such investments.
Adverse weather conditions may disrupt operations and influence revenues at our hotels. These adverse weather conditions include heavy snowfall (or lack thereof), hurricanes, tropical storms, high winds, heat waves, frosts, drought (or merely reduced rainfall levels), excessive rain and floods. In particular, Springmaid Beach Resort Hotel, which represented 10% of our total assets as of December 31, 20182019 is located in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, an area that sustained significant damage from Hurricane Matthew in October 2016, which resulted in a number of rooms being offline during the year ended December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2017, no rooms remained out of service. The pier was destroyed and certain restaurants and stores had been closed. The Company’s insurance policy provides coverage for property damage and business interruption subject to a deductible of up to 3% of replacement cost per incident.

Certain properties, such as Springmaid Beach Resort, are susceptible to damage from weather conditions such as hurricanes, which damage (including but not limited to property damage and loss of revenue) is not generally insurable at commercially reasonable rates. Thus, poor weather conditions and may adversely affect both the value of our tenants and operators to make their scheduled rent payments to us.
We may not have control over properties under construction.
We may acquire properties under development, such as 210 West 31st Street, as well as hotels that require extensive renovation, such as Springmaid Beach Resort. If we acquire a property for development or renovation, we may be subject to the risk that we cannot control construction costs and the timing of completion of construction or a developer’s ability to build in conformity with plans, specifications and timetables.
We are subject to the risk of increased hotel operating expenses.
We are subject to the risk of increased hotel operating expenses, including, but not limited to, the following cost elements:
wage and benefit costs;
repair and maintenance expenses;
employee liabilities;
energy costs;
property taxes;
insurance costs;
other operating expenses; and
the risk that the return on our investment in these capital improvements will not be what we expect.
Any increases in one or more of these operating expenses could have a significant adverse impact on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position.
We are subject to the risk of potentially significant tax penalties in case our leases with our TRS do not qualify for tax purposes as arm’s length.
Any TRSs we form will incur taxes or accrue tax benefits consistent with a “C” corporation. If the leases between us and any of our TRSs were deemed by the IRS to not reflect arm’s length transactions for tax purposes, we may be subject to severe tax penalties as the lessor that will increase our lodging operating expenses and adversely impact our profitability and cash flows.
There may be operational limitations associated with management and franchise agreements affecting our hotels and these limitations may prevent us from using these properties to their best advantage for our stockholders.
Our TRSs will lease and hold some of our hotels and may enter into franchise or license agreements with nationally recognized hotel brands. These franchise agreements may contain specific standards for, and restrictions and limitations on, the operation and maintenance of any hotels we may acquire in order to maintain uniformity within the franchiser system. We expect that franchisorsfranchisers will periodically inspect our properties to ensure that we maintain their standards. We do not know whether those limitations may restrict our business plans tailored to each property and to each market.
The standards are subject to change over time, in some cases at the direction of the franchisor,franchiser, and may restrict our TRS’s ability, as franchisee, to make improvements or modifications to a property without the consent of the franchisor.franchiser. Conversely, as a condition to the maintenance of a franchise license, a franchisorfranchiser could also require us to make capital expenditures, even if we do not believe the capital improvements are necessary, desirable, or likely to result in an acceptable return on our investment. Action or inaction on our part or by our TRS could result in a breach of those standards or other terms and conditions of the franchise agreements and could result in the loss or termination of a franchise license.
In connection with terminating or changing the franchise affiliation of a property, we may be required to incur significant expenses or capital expenditures. Moreover, the loss of a franchise license could have a material adverse effect upon the operations or the underlying value of the property covered by the franchise because of the loss of associated name recognition, marketing support and centralized reservation systems provided by the franchisor.franchiser. A loss of a franchise license for one or more lodging properties could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, including our ability to service debt and pay distributions to our stockholders.

Newly constructed and existing multifamily rental properties or other properties that compete with any properties we may acquire in any particular location could adversely affect the operating results of our properties and our cash available for distribution.
We may acquire properties in locations that experience increases in construction of multifamily rental or other properties that compete with our properties. This increased competition and construction could:
make it more difficult for us to find residents to lease units in our apartment communities;
force us to lower our rental prices in order to lease units in our apartment communities; or
substantially reduce our revenues and cash available for distribution.
Our efforts to upgrade multifamily rental properties to increase occupancy and raise rental rates through redevelopment and repositioning may fail, which may reduce our net income and the cash available for distributions.
The success of our ability to upgrade our multifamily rental properties and realize capital gains and current income for our investors on these investments materially depends upon the status of the economy where the multifamily rental property is located. Our revenues will be lower if the rental market cannot bear the higher rental rate that accompanies the upgraded multifamily rental property due to job losses or other economic hardships. Should the local market be unable to support a higher rental rate for a multifamily rental property that we upgraded, we may not realize the premium rental we had assumed by a given upgrade and we may realize reduced rental income or a reduced gain or even loss upon the sale of the property. These events could cause us to reduce the cash available for distributions.
Short-term multifamily leases expose us to the effects of declining market rent, which could adversely impact our ability to make cash distributions.
We expect that substantially all of our apartment leases will be for a term of one year or less. Because these leases generally permit the residents to leave at the end of the lease term or earlier in certain situations, such as when a resident loses his/her job, without penalty, our rental revenues may be impacted by declines in market rents more quickly than if our leases were for longer terms.
Retail properties or mixed-use properties with a retail component may be affected by an economic downturn in the United States, which may have an adverse impact on the retail industry generally. Slow or negative growth in the retail industry may result in defaults by retail tenants, which could have an adverse impact on our results of operations.
Economic conditions in the United States have had an adverse impact on the retail industry generally. As a result, the retail industry is facing reductions in sales revenues and increased bankruptcies throughout the United States. The continuation of adverse economic conditions may result in an increase in distressed or bankrupt retail companies, which in turn would result in an increase in defaults by tenants at our commercial properties. Additionally, slow economic growth is likely to hinder new entrants into the retail market which may make it difficult for us to fully lease space at any retail properties we may acquire. Tenant defaults and decreased demand for retail space would have an adverse impact on the value of any retail properties we acquire and our results of operations.
Any retail tenants we have will face competition from numerous retail channels, which may reduce our profitability and ability to pay distributions.
Retailers will face continued competition from discount or value retailers, factory outlet centers, wholesale clubs, mail order catalogues and operators, television shopping networks and shopping via the Internet. If retail tenants’ rent payments are based on the amount of sales revenue that they generate, such competition could adversely affect our tenants and, consequently, our revenues and funds available for distribution.

Hedging against interest rate exposure may adversely affect our earnings, limit our gains or result in losses, which could adversely affect cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
We may enter into interest rate swap agreements or pursue other interest rate hedging strategies. Our hedging activity will vary in scope based on the level of interest rates, the type of portfolio investments held, and other changing market conditions. Interest rate hedging may fail to protect or could adversely affect us because, among other things:
interest rate hedging can be expensive, particularly during periods of rising and volatile interest rates;
available interest rate hedging products may not correspond directly with the interest rate risk for which protection is sought;
the duration of the hedge may not match the duration of the related liability or asset;
the amount of income that a REIT may earn from hedging transactions to offset losses due to fluctuations in interest rates is limited by federal tax provisions governing REITs;
the credit quality of the party owing money on the hedge may be downgraded to such an extent that it impairs our ability to sell or assign our side of the hedging transaction;
23

Table of Contents
the party owing money in the hedging transaction may default on its obligation to pay; and
we may purchase a hedge that turns out not to be necessary, i.e., a hedge that is out of the money.
Any hedging activity we engage in may adversely affect our earnings, which could adversely affect cash available for distribution to our stockholders. Therefore, while we may enter into such transactions to seek to reduce interest rate risks, unanticipated changes in interest rates may result in poorer overall investment performance than if we had not engaged in any such hedging transactions. In addition, the degree of correlation between price movements of the instruments used in a hedging strategy and price movements in the investments being hedged or liabilities being hedged may vary materially. Moreover, for a variety of reasons, we may not seek to establish a perfect correlation between such hedging instruments and the interest rate risk sought to be hedged. Any such imperfect correlation may prevent us from achieving the intended accounting treatment and may expose us to risk of loss.
Hedging instruments often are not traded on regulated exchanges, guaranteed by an exchange or its clearing house, or regulated by any U.S. or foreign governmental authorities and involve risks and costs.
The cost of using hedging instruments increases as the period covered by the instrument increases and during periods of rising and volatile interest rates. We may increase our hedging activity and thus increase our hedging costs during periods when interest rates are volatile or rising and hedging costs have increased. In addition, hedging instruments involve risk since they often are not traded on regulated exchanges, guaranteed by an exchange or its clearing house, or regulated by any U.S. or foreign governmental authorities. Consequently, there are no requirements with respect to record keeping, financial responsibility or segregation of customer funds and positions. Furthermore, the enforceability of agreements underlying derivative transactions may depend on compliance with applicable statutory, commodity and other regulatory requirements and, depending on the identity of the counterparty, applicable international requirements. The business failure of a hedging counterparty with whom we enter into a hedging transaction will most likely result in a default. Default by a party with whom we enter into a hedging transaction may result in the loss of unrealized profits and force us to cover our resale commitments, if any, at the then current market price. Although generally we will seek to reserve the right to terminate our hedging positions, it may not always be possible to dispose of or close out a hedging position without the consent of the hedging counterparty, and we may not be able to enter into an offsetting contract in order to cover our risk. We cannot be certain that a liquid secondary market will exist for hedging instruments purchased or sold, and we may be required to maintain a position until exercise or expiration, which could result in losses.
We will assume the credit risk of our counterparties with respect to derivative transactions.
We may enter into derivative contracts for risk management purposes to hedge our exposure to cash flow variability caused by changing interest rates on our future variable rate real estate loans receivable and variable rate notes payable. These derivative contracts generally are entered into with bank counterparties and are not traded on an organized exchange or guaranteed by a central clearing organization. We would therefore assume the credit risk that our counterparties will fail to make periodic payments when due under these contracts or become insolvent. If a counterparty fails to make a required payment, becomes the subject of a bankruptcy case, or otherwise defaults under the applicable contract, we would have the right to terminate all outstanding derivative transactions with that counterparty and settle them based on their net market value or replacement cost. In such an event, we may be required to make a termination payment to the counterparty, or we may have the right to collect a termination payment from such counterparty. We assume the credit risk that the counterparty will not be able to make any termination payment owing to us. We may not receive any collateral from a counterparty, or we may receive collateral that is insufficient to satisfy the counterparty’s obligation to make a termination payment. If a counterparty is the subject of a bankruptcy case, we will be an unsecured creditor in such case unless the counterparty has pledged sufficient collateral to us to satisfy the counterparty’s obligations to us.

We will assume the risk that our derivative counterparty may terminate transactions early.
If we fail to make a required payment or otherwise default under the terms of a derivative contract, the counterparty would have the right to terminate all outstanding derivative transactions between us and that counterparty and settle them based on their net market value or replacement cost. In certain circumstances, the counterparty may have the right to terminate derivative transactions early even if we are not defaulting. If our derivative transactions are terminated early, it may not be possible for us to replace those transactions with another counterparty, on as favorable terms or at all.

24

Table of Contents
We may be required to collateralize our derivative transactions.
We may be required to secure our obligations to our counterparties under our derivative contracts by pledging collateral to our counterparties. That collateral may be in the form of cash, securities or other assets. If we default under a derivative contract with a counterparty, or if a counterparty otherwise terminates one or more derivative contracts early, that counterparty may apply such collateral toward our obligation to make a termination payment to the counterparty. If we have pledged securities or other assets, the counterparty may liquidate those assets in order to satisfy our obligations. If we are required to post cash or securities as collateral, such cash or securities will not be available for use in our business. Cash or securities pledged to counterparties may be repledged by counterparties and may not be held in segregated accounts. Therefore, in the event of a counterparty insolvency, we may not be entitled to recover some or all collateral pledged to that counterparty, which could result in losses and have an adverse effect on our operations.
There can be no assurance that the direct or indirect effects of the Dodd-Frank Act and other applicable non-U.S. regulations will not have an adverse effect on our interest rate hedging activities.
Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) imposed additional regulations on derivatives markets and transactions. Such regulations and, to the extent we trade with counterparties organized in non-US jurisdictions, any applicable regulations in those jurisdictions, are still being implemented, and will affect our interest rate hedging activities. While the full impact of the regulation on our interest rate hedging activities cannot be fully assessed until all final rules and regulations are implemented, such regulation may affect our ability to enter into hedging or other risk management transactions, may increase our costs in entering into such transactions, and/or may result in us entering into such transactions on less favorable terms than prior to implementation of such regulation. For example, but not by way of limitation, the Dodd-Frank Act and the rule-making thereunder provides for significantly increased regulation of the derivative transactions used to affect our interest rate hedging activities, including: (i) regulatory reporting, (ii) subject to an exemption for end-users of swaps upon which we and our subsidiaries generally rely, mandated clearing of certain derivatives transactions through central counterparties and execution on regulated exchanges or execution facilities and, (iii) to the extent we are required to clear any such transactions, margin and collateral requirements. The imposition, or the failure to comply with, any of the foregoing requirements may have an adverse effect on our business and our stockholders’ return.
Our investments in preferred and common equity securities will be subject to the specific risks relating to the particular issuer of the securities and may involve greater risk of loss than secured debt financings.
Our investments in preferred and common equity securities will involve special risks relating to the particular issuer of the securities, including the financial condition and business outlook of the issuer. Issuers that are REITs and other real estate companies are subject to the inherent risks associated with real estate and real estate-related investments discussed in our prospectus. Issuers that are debt finance companies are subject to the inherent risks associated with structured financing investments also discussed in our prospectus. Furthermore, preferred and common equity securities may involve greater risk of loss than secured debt financings due to a variety of factors, including that such investments are generally unsecured and may also be subordinated to other obligations of the issuer. As a result, investments in preferred and common equity securities are subject to risks of (i) substantial market price volatility resulting from changes in prevailing interest rates, (ii) subordination to the senior claims of banks and other lenders to the issuer, (iii) the operation of mandatory sinking fund or call/redemption provisions during periods of declining interest rates that could cause the issuer to reinvest redemption proceeds in lower yielding assets, (iv) the possibility that earnings of the issuer may be insufficient to meet its distribution obligations and (v) the declining creditworthiness and potential for insolvency of the issuer during periods of rising interest rates and economic downturn. These risks may adversely affect the value of outstanding preferred and common equity securities and the ability of the issuers thereof to make distribution payments to us.
We may make investments in non-U.S. dollar denominated securities, which will be subject to currency rates exposure.
We may purchase real estate-related securities denominated in foreign currencies. A change in foreign currency exchange rates may have an adverse impact on returns on our non-U.S. dollar denominated investments. Although we may hedge our foreign currency risk subject to the REIT income qualification tests, we may not be able to do so successfully and may incur losses on these investments as a result of exchange rate fluctuations.

Investments in properties or other real estate investments outside the United States subject us to foreign currency risks, which may adversely affect distributions and our REIT status.
Revenues generated from any properties or other real estate investments we acquire or ventures we enter into relating to transactions involving assets located in markets outside the United States likely will be denominated in the local currency.  Therefore, any investments we make outside the United States may subject us to foreign currency risk due to potential fluctuations in exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar. As a result, changes in exchange rates of any such foreign currency to U.S. dollars may affect our revenues, operating margins and distributions and may also affect the book value of our assets and the amount of stockholders’ equity.
25

Table of Contents
Changes in foreign currency exchange rates used to value a REIT’s foreign assets may be considered changes in the value of the REIT’s assets. These changes may adversely affect our status as a REIT. Further, bank accounts in foreign currency which are not considered cash or cash equivalents may adversely affect our status as a REIT.
Inflation in foreign countries, along with government measures to curb inflation, may have an adverse effect on our investments.
Certain countries have in the past experienced extremely high rates of inflation. Inflation, along with governmental measures to curb inflation, coupled with public speculation about possible future governmental measures to be adopted, has had significant negative effects on these international economies in the past and this could occur again in the future. The introduction of governmental policies to curb inflation can have an adverse effect on our business.  High inflation in the countries where we purchase real estate or make other investments could increase our expenses and we may not be able to pass these increased costs on to our tenants.
Concerns regarding the European debt crisis and market perceptions concerning the instability of the euro could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financing.
Concerns persist regarding the debt burden of certain Eurozone countries and their ability to meet future financial obligations, the overall stability of the euro and the suitability of the euro as a single currency given the diverse economic and political circumstances in individual Eurozone countries. These concerns could lead to the re-introduction of individual currencies in one or more Eurozone countries, or, in more extreme circumstances, the possible dissolution of the euro currency entirely. Should the euro dissolve entirely, the legal and contractual consequences for holders of euro-denominated obligations would be determined by laws in effect at such time. These potential developments, or market perceptions concerning these and related issues, could materially adversely affect the value of any euro-denominated assets and obligations we may acquire.
Our dependence on the management of other entities in which we invest may adversely affect our business.
We will not control the management, investment decisions or operations of the companies in which we may invest. Management of those enterprises may decide to change the nature of their assets, or management may otherwise change in a manner that is not satisfactory to us. We will have no ability to affect these management decisions and we may have only limited ability to dispose of our investments.
Many of our investments will be illiquid and we may not be able to vary our portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions.
Certain of the real estate-related securities that we may purchase in connection with privately negotiated transactions will not be registered under the relevant securities laws, resulting in a prohibition against their transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition except in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements of, or is otherwise in accordance with, those laws. Some of the CMBS and RMBS that we may purchase may be traded in private, unregistered transactions and are therefore subject to restrictions on resale or otherwise have no established trading market. The mezzanine and bridge loans we may purchase or originate will be particularly illiquid investments due to their short life, their unsuitability for securitization and the greater difficulty of recoupment in the event of a borrower’s default. This illiquidity may limit our ability to vary our portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions, which could increase the likelihood that the value of the stockholders’ investment in us will decrease as a result of such changes in economic and other conditions.
Declines in the market values of our investments may adversely affect periodic reported results of operations and credit availability, which may reduce earnings and, in turn, cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
We expect that a substantial portion of our assets will be classified for accounting purposes as “available-for-sale.” These investments are carried at estimated fair value and temporary changes in the market values of those assets will be directly charged or credited to stockholders’ equity without impacting net income on the income statement. Moreover, if we determine that a decline in the estimated fair value of an available-for-sale security below its amortized value is other-than-temporary, we will recognize a loss on that security on the income statement, which will reduce our earnings in the period recognized.

A decline in the market value of our assets may adversely affect us particularly in instances where we have borrowed money based on the market value of those assets. If the market value of those assets declines, the lender may require us to post additional collateral to support the loan. If we were unable to post the additional collateral, we may have to sell assets at a time when we might not otherwise choose to do so. A reduction in available credit may reduce our earnings and, in turn, cash available for distribution to stockholders.
Further, credit facility providers may require us to maintain a certain amount of cash reserves or to set aside unleveraged assets sufficient to maintain a specified liquidity position, which would allow us to satisfy our collateral obligations. If the market value of our investments declines, we may not be able to leverage our assets as fully as we would choose, which could reduce our return on equity. In the event that we are unable to meet these contractual obligations, our financial condition could deteriorate rapidly.
26

Table of Contents
Market values of our real estate-related investments may decline for a number of reasons, such as changes in prevailing market rates, increases in defaults related to the collateral, increases in voluntary prepayments for our investments that are subject to prepayment risk, widening of credit spreads and downgrades of ratings of the securities by ratings agencies.agencies and global recession or significant declines in the overall economy.
Some of our investments will be carried at an estimated fair value and we will be required to disclose the fair value of other investments quarterly. The estimated fair value will be determined by us and, as a result, there may be uncertainty as to the value of these investments.
Some of our investments will be in the form of securities that are recorded at fair value but that have limited liquidity or are not publicly traded. In addition, we must disclose the fair value of our investments in loans each quarter. Such estimates are inherently uncertain. The fair value of securities and other investments, including loans that have limited liquidity or are not publicly traded, may not be readily determinable. We will estimate the fair value of these investments on a quarterly basis. Because such valuations are inherently uncertain, may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on numerous estimates, our determinations of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these securities existed. The value of our common stock could be adversely affected if our determinations regarding the fair value of these investments are materially higher than the values that we ultimately realize upon their disposal.
Our joint venture partners could take actions that decrease the value of an investment to us and lower our stockholders’ overall return.
We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, joint ventures with third parties to make investments. We may also make investments in partnerships or other co-ownership arrangements or participations. Such investments may involve risks not otherwise present with other methods of investment, including, for example, the following risks:
that our co-venturer or partner in an investment could become insolvent or bankrupt;
that such co-venturer or partner may at any time have economic or business interests or goals that are or that become inconsistent with our business interests or goals;
that such co-venturer or partner may be in a position to take action contrary to our instructions or requests or contrary to our policies or objectives; or
that disputes between us and our co-venturer or partner in an investment could result in litigation, thereby increasing our expenses and preventing our executive officers and directors from focusing available time and effort on our ongoing business operations.
Any of the above might subject us to liabilities and thus reduce our returns on our investment with that co-venturer or partner.
Properties that have significant vacancies could be difficult to sell, which could diminish the return on these properties.
A property may incur vacancies either by the expiration of tenant leases or the continued default of tenants under their leases. If vacancies continue for a long period of time, we may suffer reduced revenues resulting in less cash available to distribute to our stockholders. In addition, because a property’s market value depends principally upon the value of the leases associated with that property, the resale value of a property with high or prolonged vacancies could suffer, which could further reduce our returns. Such a reduction in the resale value of a property could also reduce the value of our stockholders’ investment.
We depend on tenants for a portion of our revenue, and lease defaults or terminations could reduce our net income and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.
The success of our real estate investments materially depends on the financial stability of our tenants. A default or termination by a significant tenant on its lease payments to us would cause us to lose the revenue associated with such lease and could require us to find an alternative source of revenue to meet mortgage payments and prevent a foreclosure, if the property is subject to a mortgage. In the event of a tenant default or bankruptcy, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment and re-leasing our property.

If a tenant defaults on or terminates a significant lease, we may be unable to lease the property for the rent previously received or sell the property without incurring a loss. These events could cause us to reduce the amount of distributions to our stockholders.

27

Table of Contents
Our inability to sell a property at the time and on the terms we want could limit our ability to pay cash distributions to our stockholders.
Many factors that are beyond our control affect the real estate market and could affect our ability to sell properties for the price, on the terms or within the time frame that we desire. These factors include general economic conditions, the availability of financing, interest rates and other factors, including supply and demand. Because real estate investments are relatively illiquid, we have a limited ability to vary our portfolio in response to changes in economic or other conditions. Further, before we can sell a property on the terms we want, it may be necessary to expend funds to correct defects or to make improvements. However, we can give no assurance that we will have the funds available to correct such defects or to make such improvements. We may be unable to sell our properties at a profit. Our inability to sell properties at the time and on the terms we want could reduce our cash flow and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders and could reduce the value of our shares.
Our revenue and net income may vary significantly from one period to another due to investments in opportunity-oriented properties and portfolio acquisitions, which could increase the variability of our cash available for distributions.
Our opportunistic property acquisition strategy may include investments in properties in various phases of development, redevelopment or repositioning and portfolio acquisitions, which may cause our revenues and net income to fluctuate significantly from one period to another. Projects do not produce revenue while in development or redevelopment. During any period when our projects in development or redevelopment or those with significant capital requirements increase without a corresponding increase in stable revenue-producing properties, our revenues and net income will likely decrease. Many factors may have a negative impact on the level of revenues or net income produced by our portfolio of properties and projects, including higher than expected construction costs, failure to complete projects on a timely basis, failure of the properties to perform at expected levels upon completion of development or redevelopment, and increased borrowings necessary to fund higher than expected construction or other costs related to the project. Further, our net income and stockholders’ equity could be negatively affected during periods with large portfolio acquisitions, which generally require large cash outlays and may require the incurrence of additional financing. Any such reduction in our revenues and net income during such periods could cause a resulting decrease in our cash available for distributions during the same periods.
If we sell a property by providing financing to the purchaser, we will bear the risk of default by the purchaser, which could delay or reduce the distributions available to our stockholders.
In some instances, we may sell our properties by providing financing to purchasers. When we provide financing to a purchaser, we will bear the risk that the purchaser may default, which could reduce our cash distributions to stockholders. Even in the absence of a purchaser default, the distribution of the proceeds of the sale to our stockholders, or the reinvestment of the proceeds in other assets, will be delayed until the promissory note or other property we may accept upon a sale are actually paid, sold, refinanced or otherwise disposed.
Our operating results may be negatively affected by potential development and construction delays and result in increased costs and risks, which could diminish our stockholders’ return on their investment in us.
We may invest some of the proceeds available for investment in the acquisition, development and/or redevelopment of properties upon which we will develop and construct improvements. We could incur substantial capital obligations in connection with these types of investments. We will be subject to risks relating to uncertainties associated with rezoning for development and environmental concerns of governmental entities and/or community groups and our builder’s ability to control construction costs or to build in conformity with plans, specifications and timetables. The builder’s failure to perform may necessitate legal action by us to rescind the purchase or the construction contract or to compel performance. Performance may also be affected or delayed by conditions beyond the builder’s control. Delays in completion of construction could also give tenants the right to terminate preconstruction leases for space at a newly developed project. We may incur additional risks when we make periodic progress payments or other advances to such builders prior to completion of construction. These and other such factors can result in increased costs of a project or loss of our investment. Substantial capital obligations could delay our ability to pay distributions. In addition, we will be subject to normal lease-up risks relating to newly constructed projects. Furthermore, we must rely upon projections of rental income and expenses and estimates of the fair market value of property upon completion of construction when agreeing upon a price to be paid for the property at the time of acquisition of the property. If our projections are inaccurate, we may pay too much for a property, and the return on our investment could suffer.

In addition, we may invest in unimproved real property. Returns from development of unimproved properties are also subject to risks and uncertainties associated with rezoning the land for development and environmental concerns of governmental entities and/or community groups. Although our intention is to limit any investment in unimproved property to property we intend to develop, our stockholders’ investment nevertheless is subject to the risks associated with investments in unimproved real property.

Table of Contents
If the properties related to our investments are concentrated by type or geographic area, then we will be exposed to increased risk with respect to those property types or that geographic area.
Our investments may at times be concentrated in certain property types that are subject to a higher risk of foreclosure. In addition, our investments may be secured by properties concentrated in a limited number of geographic locations. Adverse conditions in the areas where the properties securing or otherwise underlying our investments are located (including business layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, changing demographics and other factors) and local real estate conditions (such as oversupply or reduced demand) may have an adverse effect on the value of the properties securing the loans our investments. A material decline in demand or the ability of tenants to pay rent or of a buyer to consummate a purchase in these geographic areas may result in a material decline in our cash available for distribution.
Costs imposed pursuant to governmental laws and regulations may reduce our net income and the cash available for distributions to our stockholders.
Real property and the operations conducted on real property are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to protection of the environment and human health. We could be subject to liability in the form of fines, penalties or damages for noncompliance with these laws and regulations. These laws and regulations generally govern wastewater discharges, air emissions, the operation and removal of underground and above-ground storage tanks, the use, storage, treatment, transportation and disposal of solid and hazardous materials, the remediation of contamination associated with the release or disposal of solid and hazardous materials, the presence of toxic building materials, and other health and safety-related concerns.
Some of these laws and regulations may impose joint and several liability on the tenants, owners or operators of real property for the costs to investigate or remediate contaminated properties, regardless of fault, whether the contamination occurred prior to purchase, or whether the acts causing the contamination were legal. Activities of our tenants, the condition of properties at the time we buy them, operations in the vicinity of our properties, such as the presence of underground storage tanks, or activities of unrelated third parties may affect our properties.
The presence of hazardous substances, or the failure to properly manage or remediate these substances, may hinder our ability to sell, rent or pledge such property as collateral for future borrowings. Any material expenditures, fines, penalties, or damages we must pay will reduce our ability to pay distributions and may reduce the value of our shares.
The costs of defending against claims of environmental liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury or other damage claims could reduce the cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous real property owner or operator may be liable for the cost of removing or remediating hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. These costs could be substantial. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Environmental laws also may impose liens on property or restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures or prevent us from entering into leases with prospective tenants that may be impacted by such laws. Environmental laws provide for sanctions for noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability for the release of and exposure to hazardous substances, including asbestos-containing materials and lead-based paint. Third parties may seek recovery from real property owners or operators for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances and governments may seek recovery for natural resource damage. The costs of defending against claims of environmental liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury claims could reduce the cash available for distribution to our stockholders.

Costs associated with complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act may decrease cash available for distribution.
Our properties may be subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, or the Disabilities Act. Under the Disabilities Act, all places of public accommodation are required to comply with federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. The Disabilities Act has separate compliance requirements for “public accommodations” and “commercial facilities” that generally require that buildings and services be made accessible and available to people with disabilities. The Disabilities Act’s requirements could require removal of access barriers and could result in the imposition of injunctive relief, monetary penalties or, in some cases, an award of damages. Any funds used for Disabilities Act compliance will reduce our net income and the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders.

Uninsured losses relating to real property or excessively expensive premiums for insurance coverage could reduce our cash flow from operations and the return on our stockholders’ investment in us.
There are types of losses, generally catastrophic in nature, such as losses due to wars, acts of terrorism, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, pollution or environmental matters, that are uninsurable or not economically insurable, or may be insured subject to limitations, such as large deductibles or co-payments. Insurance risks associated with potential acts of terrorism could sharply increase the premiums we pay for coverage against property and casualty claims. Additionally, mortgage lenders in some cases may insist that commercial property owners purchase coverage against terrorism as a condition to providing mortgage loans. Such insurance policies may not be available at reasonable costs, if at all, which could inhibit our ability to finance or refinance our properties. In such instances, we may be required to provide other financial support, either through financial assurances or self-insurance, to cover potential losses. We may not have adequate coverage for such losses. If any of our properties incurs a casualty loss that is not fully insured, the value of our assets will be reduced by any such uninsured loss, which will reduce the value of our stockholders’ investment in us. In addition, other than any working capital reserve or other reserves we may establish, we have limited sources of funding to repair or reconstruct any uninsured property. Also, to the extent we must pay unexpectedly large amounts for insurance, we could suffer reduced earnings that would result in lower distributions to our stockholders.
Terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war may affect the markets in which we plan to operate, which could delay or hinder our ability to meet our investment objectives and reduce our stockholders’ overall return.
Terrorist attacks or armed conflicts may directly impact the value of our properties through damage, destruction, loss or increased security costs. We may not be able to obtain insurance against the risk of terrorism because it may not be available or may not be available on terms that are economically feasible. The terrorism insurance that we obtain may not be sufficient to cover loss for damages to our properties as a result of terrorist attacks. The inability to obtain sufficient terrorism insurance or any terrorism insurance at all could limit our investment, financing and refinancing options as some mortgage lenders have begun to insist that specific coverage against terrorism be purchased by commercial owners as a condition to providing loans.
Risks Related to Our Financing Strategy
We have obtained mortgage indebtedness and other borrowings, which increases our risk of loss due to potential foreclosure.
We have obtained long-term financing that are secured by our real estate investments. In some instances, we may acquire real properties by financing a portion of the price of the properties and mortgaging or pledging some or all of the properties purchased as security for that debt. We may also incur mortgage debt on properties that we already own in order to obtain funds to acquire additional properties, to fund property improvements and other capital expenditures, to pay distributions and for other purposes. In addition, we may borrow as necessary or advisable to ensure that we maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, including borrowings to satisfy the REIT requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income to our stockholders (computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and excluding net capital gain). However, we can give our stockholders no assurance that we will be able to obtain such borrowings on satisfactory terms or at all.
If we do mortgage a property and there is a shortfall between the cash flow generated by that property and the cash flow needed to service mortgage debt on that property, then the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders may be reduced. In addition, incurring mortgage debt increases the risk of loss of a property since defaults on indebtedness secured by a property may result in lenders initiating foreclosure actions. In that case, we could lose the property securing the loan that is in default, reducing the value of our stockholders’ investment. For tax purposes, a foreclosure of any of our properties would be treated as a sale of the property for a purchase price equal to the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage. If the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage exceeds our tax basis in the property, we would recognize taxable income on foreclosure even though we would not necessarily receive any cash proceeds. We may give full or partial guaranties to lenders of mortgage or other debt on behalf of the entities that own our properties. When we give a guaranty on behalf of an entity that owns one of our properties, we will be responsible to the lender for satisfaction of all or a part of the debt or other amounts related to the debt if it is not paid by such entity. If any mortgages contain cross-collateralization or cross-default provisions, a default on a mortgage secured by a single property could affect mortgages secured by other properties.

We may also obtain recourse debt to finance our acquisitions and meet our REIT distribution requirements. If we have insufficient income to service our recourse debt obligations, our lenders could institute proceedings against us to foreclose upon our assets. If a lender successfully forecloses upon any of our assets, our ability to pay cash distributions to our stockholders will be limited and our stockholders could lose all or part of their investment.

High mortgage rates or changes in underwriting standards may make it difficult for us to finance or refinance properties, which could reduce the number of properties we can acquire, our cash flow from operations and the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
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 a property, we run the risk of being unable to refinance part or all of the debt when it becomes due or of being unable to refinance on favorable terms. If interest rates are higher when we refinance properties subject to mortgage debt, our income could be reduced. We may be unable to refinance or may only be able to partly refinance properties if underwriting standards, including loan to value ratios and yield requirements, among other requirements, are more strict than when we originally financed the properties. If any of these events occurs, our cash flow could be reduced and/or we might have to pay down existing mortgages. This, in turn, would reduce cash available for distribution to our stockholders, could cause us to require additional capital and may hinder our ability to raise capital by issuing more stock or by borrowing more money.
High mortgage rates 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 real properties. For the mortgage debt we place on properties, we run the risk of being unable to refinance our indebtedness when the loans become due, or of being unable to refinance our indebtedness on favorable terms. If interest rates are higher when we refinance the properties, our income could be reduced. We may be unable to refinance properties. If any of these events occurs, our cash flow would be reduced. This, in turn, would 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.
Lenders may require us to enter into restrictive covenants relating to our operations, which could limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.
When providing financing, a lender may impose restrictions on us that affect our distribution and operating policies and our ability to incur additional debt. Loan agreements into which we may enter may contain covenants that limit our ability to further mortgage a property or that prohibit us from discontinuing insurance coverage or replacing KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors as our advisor. These or other limitations would decrease our operating flexibility and our ability to achieve our operating objectives.
In a period of rising interest rates, our interest expense could increase while the interest we earn on our fixed-rate assets would not change, which would adversely affect our profitability.
Our operating results will depend in large part on differences between the income from our assets, net of credit losses and financing costs. Income from our assets may respond more slowly to interest rate fluctuations than the cost of our borrowings. Consequently, changes in interest rates, particularly short-term interest rates, may significantly influence our net income. Increases in these rates will tend to decrease our net income and market value of our assets. Interest rate fluctuations resulting in our interest expense exceeding our interest income would result in operating losses for us and may limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. We have incurred debt and increases in interest rates will increase the cost of that debt, which could reduce our cash flow from operations and the cash we have available for distribution to our stockholders. In addition, if we need to repay existing debt during periods of rising interest rates, we could be required to liquidate one or more of our investments at times that may not permit realization of the maximum return on such investments.
Changes to the LIBOR settling process and potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021 could adversely affect our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
As of December 31, 2018,2019, we have $328.8$329.6 million variable rate debt outstanding for which we pay interest based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). In July 2017,LIBOR and certain other interest “benchmarks” may be subject to regulatory guidance and/or reform that could cause interest rates under our current or future debt agreements to perform differently than in the past or cause other unanticipated consequences. The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, has announced that byit intends to stop encouraging or requiring banks to submit rates for the endcalculation of LIBOR rates after 2021, LIBOR would be replaced with a more reliable alternative, due to LIBOR rate manipulation and the resulting fines assessed on several major financial institutions over the past several years. Itit is unclear whether new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established, such that LIBOR may continue to exist after 2021. While there is no consensus on what rate or rates may become accepted alternatives to LIBOR, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of U.S. financial market participants, selected the Secured Overnight Finance Rate (“SOFR”) as an alternative to LIBOR. SOFR is a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash in the overnight U.S. treasury repo market, and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York started to publish the SOFR in May 2018. At this time, we do not know what changesit is impossible to predict whether the SOFR or another reference rate will be made by the Financial Conduct Authority, or how the changesbecome an accepted alternative to LIBOR. The discontinuation, reform or replacement of LIBOR will affector any other benchmark rates may have an unpredictable impact on contractual mechanics in the interest we pay on our unsecured credit facilitymarkets or cause disruption to the broader financial markets, and other debt instruments. Additionally, there is no guarantee that a transition from LIBOR to an alternative rate will not result in financial market disruptions, significant increases in benchmark interest rates or borrowing costs, any of which maycould have an adverse effect on us.LIBOR-based interest rates on our current or future debt obligations.

We have broad authority to incur debt and high debt levels could hinder our ability to pay distributions and decrease the value of an investment in us.
Although we expect that once we have fully invested the proceeds of our initial public offering, our debt financing and other liabilities will be 60% or less of the cost of our tangible assets (before deducting depreciation and other non-cash reserves), our debt financing and other liabilities may exceed this level during our offering stage. Our charter limits our total liabilities to 75% of the cost of our tangible assets (before deducting depreciation and other non-cash reserves); however, we may exceed this limit with the approval of the conflicts committee of our board of directors. During the early stages of our initial public offering, and to the extent financing in excess of this limit is available on attractive terms, the conflicts committee may approve debt such that our total liabilities would exceed this limit. High debt levels would cause us to incur higher interest charges and higher debt service payments and could also be accompanied by restrictive covenants. These factors could limit the amount of cash we have available to distribute and could result in a decline in the value of an investment in us.
We may not be able to access financing sources on attractive terms, which could adversely affect our ability to execute our business plan.
We may finance our assets over the long-term through a variety of means, including repurchase agreements, credit facilities, issuances of commercial mortgage-backed securities and other structured financings. Our ability to execute this strategy will depend on various conditions in the markets for financing in this manner that are beyond our control, including lack of liquidity and greater credit spreads. We cannot be certain that these markets will remain an efficient source of long-term financing for our assets. If our strategy is not viable, we will have to find alternative forms of long-term financing for our assets, as secured revolving credit facilities and repurchase agreements may not accommodate long-term financing. This could subject us to more recourse indebtedness and the risk that debt service on less efficient forms of financing would require a larger portion of our cash flow, thereby reducing cash available for distribution to our stockholders and funds available for operations as well as for future business opportunities.
Federal Income Tax Risks

We elected to be taxedOur qualification as a REIT underwill depend upon our ability to meet requirements regarding our organization and ownership, distributions of our income, the nature and diversification of our income and assets and other tests imposed by the Internal Revenue Code commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2014. We intend to continue to operate in a manner so as to continueCode. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex Internal Revenue Code provisions for which only a limited number of judicial and administrative interpretations exist. Even an inadvertent or technical mistake could jeopardize our REIT status. Our continued qualification as a REIT will depend on our satisfaction of certain asset, income, organizational, distribution, stockholder ownership and other requirements on a continuing basis. Moreover, new tax legislation, administrative guidance or court decisions, in each instance potentially with retroactive effect, could make it more difficult or impossible for us to continue to qualify as a REIT. If we fail to continue to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year after electing REIT status, we wouldwill be subject to federal and applicable state and local income tax on our taxable income at corporate rates (a maximum rate of 35% applied through 2017, with a 21% rate beginning 2018). In addition, we would generally be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year in which case we might be required to borrow or liquidate some investments in order to pay the applicable tax.lost our REIT status. Losing our REIT status would reduce our net incomeearnings available for investment or distribution to youstockholders because of the additional tax liability. In addition, distributions to youstockholders would no longer qualify for the dividends-paid deduction and we would no longer be required to pay distributions. If this occurs, we might be required to borrow funds or liquidate some investments in order to pay the applicable tax.
Failure to qualify as a REIT would subject us to U.S. federal income tax, which would reduce the cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
We believe that we have operated and will continue to operate in a manner that will allow us to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2014. However, the U.S. federal income tax laws governing REITs are extremely complex, and interpretations of the U.S. federal income tax laws governing qualification as a REIT are limited. Qualifying as a REIT requires us to meet various tests regarding the nature of our assets and our income, the ownership of our outstanding stock, and the amount of our distributions on an ongoing basis. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that we will be successful in operating so we can remain qualified as a REIT. While we intend to continue to operate so that we will qualify as a REIT, given the highly complex nature of the rules governing REITs, the ongoing importance of factual determinations, including the tax treatment of certain investments we may make, distributions. Furthermore, ifand the possibility of future changes in our circumstances, no assurance can be given that we will so qualify for any particular year. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any calendar year and we do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, we would be required to pay U.S. federal income tax on our taxable yearincome at regular corporate rates, and distributions to our stockholders would not be deductible by us in determining our taxable income. In such a case, we might need to borrow money or sell assets to pay that tax. Our payment of income tax would decrease the amount of our income available for whichdistribution to our stockholders. Furthermore, if we have electedfail to be taxedmaintain our qualification as a REIT and we do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, we no longer would be required to distribute substantially all of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders. Unless our failure to qualify as a REIT were excused under federal tax laws, we would generally be unable to electdisqualified from taxation as a REIT status for the four taxable years following the year induring which our REIT status isqualification was lost.

Our stockholders may force ushave current tax liability on distributions they elect to borrowreinvest in our common stock.
If our stockholders participate in our dividend reinvestment plan, they will be deemed to have received, and for income tax purposes will be taxed on, the amount reinvested in shares of our common stock to the extent the amount reinvested was not a tax-free return of capital. In addition, our stockholders will be treated for tax purposes as having received an additional distribution to the extent the shares are purchased at a discount to fair market value, if any. As a result, unless our stockholders are tax-exempt entities, they may have to use funds from other sources to make distributions to you or otherwise dependpay their tax liability on external sourcesthe value of capital to fund such distributions.the shares of common stock received.
To continue toEven if we qualify as a REIT we are required to distribute annually at least 90% of our taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, to our stockholders. To the extent that we satisfy the distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our taxable income, we will be subject to federal corporate income tax on our undistributed taxable income. In addition, we may elect to retain and pay income tax on our net long-term capital gain. In that case, if we so elect, a stockholder would be taxed on its proportionate share of our undistributed long-term gain and would receive a credit or refund for its proportionate share of the tax we paid. A stockholder, including a tax-exempt or foreign stockholder, would have to file a federal income tax return to claim that credit or refund. Furthermore, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the actual amount that we distribute to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under federal tax laws.

From time-to-time, we may generate taxable income greater than our net income (loss) for U.S. GAAP. In addition, our taxable income may be greater than our cash flow available for distribution to you as a result of, among other things, investments in assets that generate taxable income in advance of the corresponding cash flow from the assets (for instance, if a borrower defers the payment of interest in cash pursuant to a contractual right or otherwise).
If we do not have other funds available in the situations described in the preceding paragraphs, we could be required to borrow funds on unfavorable terms, sell investments at disadvantageous prices or find another alternative source of funds to make distributions sufficient to enable us to distribute enough of our taxable income to satisfy the REIT distribution requirement and to avoid corporate income tax and the 4% excise tax in a particular year. These alternatives could increase our costs or reduce our equity.
Because of the distribution requirement, it is unlikely that we will be able to fund all future capital needs, including capital needs in connection with investments, from cash retained from operations. As a result, to fund future capital needs, we likely will have to rely on third-party sources of capital, including both debt and equity financing, which may or may not be available on favorable terms or at all. Our access to third-party sources of capital will depend upon a number of factors, including our current and potential future earnings and cash distributions.
Despite our qualification for taxation as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we may be subject to federal, state, local or other tax liabilities that reduce our cash flow and our ability to makepay distributions to you.our stockholders.
Despite our qualification for taxationEven if we qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we may be subject to certainsome federal, state and local taxes on our income and assets, including taxes on any undistributed income or property. Any of these taxes would decrease cash available for distribution to you. For instance:example:

We will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which distributions we pay in any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of our ordinary income, 95% of our capital gain net income and 100% of our undistributed income from prior years.
If we have netelect to treat property that we acquire in connection with a foreclosure of a mortgage loan or certain leasehold terminations as “foreclosure property,” we may avoid the 100% tax on the gain from a resale of that property, but the income from the sale or operation of foreclosurethat property that we hold primarily for salemay be subject to customers in the ordinary course of business or other non-qualifyingcorporate income from foreclosure property, we must pay a tax on that income at the highest corporate income taxapplicable rate.
If we sell an asset, other than foreclosure property, that we hold primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business, and do not qualify for a safe harbor in the Internal Revenue Code, our gain would be subject to the 100% “prohibited transaction” tax.tax unless such sale were made by one of our taxable REIT subsidiaries or the sale met certain “safe harbor” requirements under the Internal Revenue Code.
Any domestic taxable REIT subsidiary, or TRS, of ours will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on its income, and on any non-arm’s-length transactions between us and any TRS, for instance, excessive rents charged to a TRS could be subject to a 100% tax. We may be subject to tax on income from certain activities conducted as a result of taking title to collateral.
We may be subject to state or local income, property and transfer taxes, such as mortgage recording taxes.
Complying with REIT distribution requirements could adversely affect our ability to execute our business plan.
We generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, in order for federal corporate income tax not to apply to earnings that we distribute. To the extent that we satisfy this distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, we will be subject to federal corporate income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the actual amount that we pay out to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under federal tax laws. We also may cause usdecide to forego otherwise attractive opportunitiesretain net capital gain we earn from the sale or liquidate otherwise attractive investments.
To continue to qualify as a REIT forother disposition of our property and pay U.S. federal income tax purposes, we must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things,directly on such income. In that event, our stockholders would be treated as if they earned that income and paid the sourcestax on it directly. However, stockholders that are tax-exempt, such as charities or qualified pension plans, would have no benefit from their deemed payment of oursuch tax liability unless they file U.S. federal income the naturetax returns and diversificationthereon seek a refund of our assets, the amounts we distributesuch tax. We also will be subject to stockholders and the ownership of our stock. As discussed above, we may be requiredcorporate tax on any undistributed REIT taxable income. We intend to make distributions to you at disadvantageous timesour stockholders to comply with the REIT requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.
From time to time, we may generate taxable income greater than our income for financial reporting purposes, or whenour taxable income may be greater than our cash flow available for distribution to stockholders (for example, where a borrower defers the payment of interest in cash pursuant to a contractual right or otherwise). If we do not have other funds readily available for distribution. Additionally,in these situations we maycould be unablerequired to pursueborrow funds, sell investments that would be otherwise attractiveat disadvantageous prices or find another alternative source of funds to pay distributions sufficient to enable us in orderto pay out enough of our taxable income to satisfy the REIT distribution requirements for qualifying as a REIT.

We must also ensure that at the end of each calendar quarter, at least 75% of the value of our assets consists of cash, cash items, government securities and qualified real estate assets, including certain mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities. The remainder of our investment in securities (other than government securities and qualified real estate assets) generally cannot include more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer or more than 10% of the total value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer. In addition, in general, no more than 5% of the value of our assets can consist of the securities of any one issuer (other than government securities and qualified real estate assets) and no more than 20% of the value of our gross assets (25% for tax years before 2018) may be represented by securities of one or more TRSs. Finally, for the taxable years after 2015, no more than 25% of our assets may consist of debt investments that are issued by “publicly offered REITs” and would not otherwise be treated as qualifying real estate assets. If we fail to comply with these requirements at the end of any calendar quarter, we must correct such failure within 30 days after the end of the calendar quarter to avoid losingcorporate income tax and the 4% excise tax in a particular year. These alternatives could increase our REIT status and suffering adverse tax consequences, unless certain relief provisions apply. As a result,costs or reduce our equity. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of profit maximizationmaximizing profits.

To maintain our REIT status, we may be forced to forego otherwise attractive business or investment opportunities, which may delay or hinder our ability to meet our investment objectives and reduce our stockholders’ overall return.
To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy certain tests on an ongoing basis concerning, among other things, the sources of our income, nature of our assets and the amounts we distribute to our stockholders. We may be required to pay distributions to stockholders at times when it would be more advantageous to reinvest cash in our business or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution. Compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of maximizing profits and reduce the value of our stockholders’ investment.
If our operating partnership fails to maintain its status as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, its income would be subject to taxation and our REIT status would be terminated.
We intend to maintain the status of our operating partnership as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, if the Internal Revenue Service (“Internal Revenue Service” or “IRS”) were to successfully challenge the status of our operating partnership as a partnership, it would be taxable as a corporation. In such event, this would reduce the amount of distributions that our operating partnership could make to us. This would also result in our losing REIT status and becoming subject to a corporate level tax on our own income. This would substantially reduce our cash available to pay distributions and the return on your investment. In addition, if any of the entities through which our operating partnership owns its properties, in whole or in part, loses its characterization as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the underlying entity would become subject to taxation as a corporation, thereby reducing distributions to our operating partnership and jeopardizing our ability to maintain REIT status.
Potential characterization of distributions or gain on sale may be treated as unrelated business taxable income to tax-exempt investors.
If (i) all or a portion of our assets are subject to the rules relating to taxable mortgage pools, (ii) we are a “pension-held REIT,” (iii) a tax-exempt stockholder has incurred debt to purchase or hold our common stock, or (iv) the residual Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit interests, or REMICs, we buy (if any) generate “excess inclusion income,” then a portion of the distributions to and, in the case of a stockholder described in clause (iii), gains realized on the sale of common stock by such tax-exempt stockholder may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as unrelated business taxable income under the Internal Revenue Code.
The tax on prohibited transactions will limit our ability to engage in transactions that would be treated as sales for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
A REIT’s net income from prohibited transactions is subject to a 100% tax. In general, prohibited transactions are sales or other dispositions of assets, other than foreclosure property, deemed held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. We might be subject to this tax if we were to dispose of loans in a manner that was treated as a sale of the loans for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, in order to avoid the prohibited transactions tax, we may choose not to engage in certain sales of loans at the REIT level, and may require uslimit the structures we utilize for our securitization transactions, even though the sales or structures might otherwise be beneficial to liquidate investments from our portfolio, or refrain from making, otherwise attractive investments. These actions could haveus.
It may be possible to reduce the effectimpact of reducing ourthe prohibited transaction tax by conducting certain activities through taxable REIT subsidiaries. However, to the extent that we engage in such activities through taxable REIT subsidiaries, the income and amounts available for distributionassociated with such activities may be subject to stockholders.full corporate income tax.
Our acquisition of debt or securities investments may cause us to recognize income for U.S. federal income tax purposes even though no cash payments have been received on the debt investments.
We may acquire debt or securities investments in the secondary market for less than their face amount. The amount of such discount will generally be treated as a “market discount” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If these debt or securities investments provide for “payment-in-kind” interest, we may recognize “original issue discount,” or OID, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Moreover, we may acquire distressed debt investments that are subsequently modified by agreement with the borrower. If the amendments to the outstanding debt constitute “significant modifications” under the applicable Department of the Treasury Regulations,regulations (“Treasury Regulations”), the modified debt may be considered to have been reissued to us in a debt-for-debt exchange with the borrower. In that event, if the debt is considered to be “publicly traded” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the modified debt in our hands may be considered to have been issued with OID to the extent the fair market value of the modified debt is less than the principal amount of the outstanding debt. In the event the debt is not considered to be “publicly traded” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we may be required to recognize taxable income to the extent that the principal amount of the modified debt exceeds our cost of purchasing it. Also, certain loans that we originate and later modify and certain previously modified debt we acquire in the secondary market may be considered to have been issued with the OID at the time it was modified.

Table of Contents
In general, we will be required to accrue OID on a debt instrument as taxable income in accordance with applicable federal income tax rules even though no cash payments may be received on such debt instrument on a current basis.
In the event a borrower with respect to a particular debt instrument encounters financial difficulty rendering it unable to pay stated interest as due, we may nonetheless be required to continue to recognize the unpaid interest as taxable income. Similarly, we may be required to accrue interest income with respect to subordinate mortgage-backed securities at the stated rate regardless of when their corresponding cash payments are received.
In order to meet the REIT distribution requirements, it might be necessary for us to arrange for short-term, or possibly longtermlong-term borrowings, or to pay distributions in the form of our shares or other taxable in-kind distributions of property. We may need to borrow funds at times when the market conditions are unfavorable. Such borrowings could increase our costs and reduce the value of your investment. In the event in-kind distributions are made, your tax liabilities associated with an investment in our common stock for a given year may exceed the amount of cash we distribute to you during such year.

As a result, we mightmay be required to liquidate from our portfolio otherwise attractive investments. These actions could have the effect of reducing our income and amounts available for distribution to limit our use of advantageous hedging techniques or implement those hedges through a TRS. Any hedging income earned by a TRS would be subject to federal, state and local income tax at regular corporate rates. This could increase the cost of our hedging activities or expose us to greater risks associated with interest rate or other changes than we would otherwise incur.stockholders.
Liquidation of assets may jeopardize our REIT qualification.
To continue to qualify as a REIT, we must comply with requirements regarding our assets and our sources of income. If we are compelled to liquidate our investments to satisfy ourrepay obligations to our lenders, we may be unable to comply with these requirements, ultimately jeopardizing our qualification as a REIT, or we may be subject to a 100% prohibited transaction tax on any resultingresultant gain if we sell assets that are treated as dealer property or inventory.

The prohibited transactions taxComplying with REIT requirements may limit our ability to engage in transactions, including dispositionhedge effectively.
The REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code may limit our ability to hedge our assets and certain methodsoperations. Under these provisions, any income that we generate from transactions intended to hedge our interest rate, inflation and/or currency risks will be excluded from gross income for purposes of securitizing loans, whichthe REIT 75% and 95% gross income tests if the purpose of the instrument is to (i) hedge interest rate risk on liabilities incurred to carry or acquire real estate, (ii) hedge risk of currency fluctuations with respect to any item of income or gain that would be treated as sales for federalqualifying income tax purposes.
A REIT’s netunder the REIT 75% or 95% gross income from prohibited transactions is subject to a 100% tax. In general, prohibited transactions are salestests, or other dispositions of dealer property, other than foreclosure property, but including loans held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. We might be subject(iii) manage risk with respect to the prohibited transaction tax if we were to disposetermination of certain prior hedging transactions described in (i) and/or securitize loans(ii) above and, in each case, such instrument is properly identified under applicable Treasury Regulations. Income from hedging transactions that do not meet these requirements will generally constitute nonqualifying income for purposes of both the REIT 75% and 95% gross income tests. As a manner that is treated as a saleresult of the loans, for federal income tax purposes. In order to avoid the prohibited transactions tax,these rules, we may choose nothave to engage in certain saleslimit our use of loans and may limit the structures we use for any securitization financing transactions, even though such sales or structureshedging techniques that might otherwise be beneficial to us. Additionally, we may be subject to the prohibited transaction tax upon a disposition of real property. Although a safe-harbor exception to prohibited transaction treatment is available, we cannot assure you that we can comply with such safe harbor or that we will avoid owning property that may be characterized as held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our trade or business. Consequently, we may choose not to engage in certain sales of real property or may conduct such sales through a TRS.
It may be possible to reduce the impact of the prohibited transaction tax by conducting certain activities through a TRS. However, to the extent that we engage in such activities through a TRS, the income associated with such activities will be subject to a corporate income tax. In addition, the IRS may attempt to ignore or otherwise recast such activities in order to impose a prohibited transaction tax on us, and there can be no assurance that such recast will not be successful.
We also may not be able to use secured financing structures that would create taxable mortgage pools, other than in a TRS or through a subsidiary REIT.
We may recognize substantial amounts of REIT taxable income, which we would be required to distribute to you, in a year in which we are not profitable under U.S. GAAP principles or other economic measures.
We may recognize substantial amounts of REIT taxable income in years in which we are not profitable under U.S. GAAP or other economic measures as a result of the differences between U.S. GAAP and tax accounting methods. For instance, certain of our assets will be marked-to-market for U.S. GAAP purposes but not for tax purposes,advantageous, which could result in lossesgreater risks associated with interest rate or other changes than we would otherwise incur.

Our ownership of and relationship with our taxable REIT subsidiaries will be limited and a failure to comply with the limits would jeopardize our REIT status and may result in the application of a 100% excise tax.
A REIT may own up to 100% of the stock of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. A taxable REIT subsidiary may earn income that would not be qualifying income if earned directly by the parent REIT. Both the subsidiary and the REIT must jointly elect to treat the subsidiary as a taxable REIT subsidiary. A corporation of which a taxable REIT subsidiary directly or indirectly owns more than 35% of the voting power or value of the stock will automatically be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary. Overall, no more than 20% (25% for U.S. GAAP purposestaxable years before 2018) of the value of a REIT’s assets may consist of stock or securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. A domestic taxable REIT subsidiary will pay federal, state and local income tax at regular corporate rates on any income that it earns. In addition, the taxable REIT subsidiary rules limit the deductibility of interest paid or accrued by a taxable REIT subsidiary to its parent REIT to assure that the taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to an appropriate level of corporate taxation. The rules also impose a 100% excise tax on certain transactions between a taxable REIT subsidiary and its parent REIT that are not recognized in computingconducted on an arm’s-length basis. We cannot assure our REIT taxable income. Additionally, we may deduct our capital losses only to the extent of our capital gains in computing our REIT taxable income for a given taxable year. Consequently, we could recognize substantial amounts of REIT taxable income and would be required to distribute such income to you, in a year in which we are not profitable under U.S. GAAP or other economic measures.
We may distribute our common stock in a taxable distribution, in which case you may sell shares of our common stock to pay tax on such distributions, and you may receive less in cash than the amount of the dividendstockholders that is taxable.
We may make taxable distributions that are payable in cash and common stock. The IRS has issued private letter rulings to other REITs treating certain distributions that are paid partly in cash and partly in stock as taxable distributions that would satisfy the REIT annual distribution requirement and qualify for the dividends paid deduction for federal income tax purposes. Those rulings may be relied upon only by taxpayers to whom they were issued, but we could request a similar ruling from the IRS. Accordingly, it is unclear whether and to what extent we will be able to make taxable distributions payable in cash and common stock. If we made a taxable dividend payable in cash and common stock, taxable stockholders receiving such distributions will be required to include the dividend as taxable income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for federal income tax purposes. As a result, you may be required to pay income tax with respect to such distributions in excess of the cash distributions received. If a U.S. stockholder sells the common stock that it receives as a dividend in order to pay this tax, the sales proceeds may be less than the amount recorded in earnings with respect to the dividend, depending on the market price of our common stock at the time of the sale. Furthermore, with respect to certain non-U.S. stockholders, we may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax with respect to such dividends, including in respect of all or a portion of such dividend that is payable in common stock.
REIT distribution requirements could adversely affect our ability to execute our business plan.
We generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (which is determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain for this purpose) in order to continue to qualify as a REIT. We intend to make distributions to our stockholders to comply with the 20% value limitation on ownership of taxable REIT requirementssubsidiary stock and securities on an ongoing basis so as to maintain REIT status or to avoid application of the Internal Revenue Code and to avoid corporate income100% excise tax and the 4% excise tax. We may be required to make distributions to stockholders at times when it would be more advantageous to reinvest cash in our business or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our ability to operate solelyimposed on the basis of maximizing profits.

Our qualification as a REIT could be jeopardized as a result of an interest in joint ventures or investment funds.
We may hold certain limited partner or non-managing member interests in partnerships or limited liability companies that are joint ventures or investment funds. If a partnership or limited liability company in which we own an interest takes or expects to take actions that could jeopardize our qualification as a REIT or require us to pay tax, we may be forced to dispose of our interest in such entity. In addition, it is possible that a partnership or limited liability company could take an action which could cause us to fail a REIT gross income or asset test, and that we would not become aware of such action in time to dispose of our interest in the partnership or limited liability company or take other corrective action on a timely basis. In that case, we could fail to continue to qualify as a REIT unless we are able to qualify for a statutory REIT “savings” provision, which may require us to pay a significant penalty tax to maintain our REIT qualification.
Distributions paid by REITs do not qualify for the reduced tax rates that apply to other corporate distributions.
The maximum tax rate for “qualified dividends” paid by corporations to non-corporate stockholders is currently 20%. Distributions paid by REITs, however, generally are taxed at ordinary income rates (currently subject to a maximum rate of 37% for non-corporate stockholders), rather than the preferential rate applicable to qualified dividends.non-arm’s length transactions.
Our qualification as a REIT may depend upon the accuracy of legal opinions or advice rendered or given or statements by the issuers of assets we acquire.
When purchasing securities, we may rely on opinions or advice of counsel for the issuer of such securities, or statements made in related offering documents, for purposes of determining, among other things, whether such securities represent debt or equity securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the value of such securities, and also to what extent those securities constitute qualified real estate assets for purposes of the REIT asset tests and produce qualified income for purposes of the 75% gross income test. The inaccuracy of any such opinions, advice or statements may adversely affect our ability to qualify as a REIT and result in significant corporate-level tax.
Our charter limits the number of shares a person may own, which may discourage a takeover that could otherwise result in a premium price paid to you.
Our charter, with certain exceptions, authorizes our board of directors to take such actions as are necessary and desirable to preserve our qualification as a REIT. To help us comply with the REIT ownership requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, among other purposes, our charter prohibits a person from directly or constructively owning more than 9.8% in value of the aggregate of the outstanding shares of our stock of any class or series or more than 9.8% in value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive, of the aggregate of the outstanding shares of our common stock, unless exempted (prospectively or retroactively) by our board of directors. This restriction may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us, including an extraordinary transaction (such as a merger, tender offer or sale of all or substantially all of our assets) that might otherwise provide a premium price for holders of our shares of common stock.
Stockholders may have current tax liability on distributions they elect to reinvest in our common stock.
If a stockholder participates in our dividend reinvestment plan, he or she will be deemed to have received, and for income tax purposes will be taxed on, the amount reinvested in sharesThe ability of our common stockboard of directors to the extent the amount reinvested was not a tax-free return of capital. In addition,revoke our stockholders will be treated for tax purposes as having received an additional distributionREIT qualification without stockholder approval may subject us to the extent the shares are purchased at a discount to fair market value, if any. As a result, unless a stockholder is a tax-exempt entity, a stockholder may have to use funds from other sources to pay their tax liability on the value of the shares of common stock received.
If our operating partnership fails to maintain its status as a partnership forU.S. federal income tax purposes, its income would be subjectand reduce distributions to taxation andour stockholders.
Our charter provides that our board of directors may revoke or otherwise terminate our REIT status would be terminated.
Weelection, without the approval of our stockholders, if it determines that it is no longer in our best interest to continue to qualify as a REIT. While we intend to maintain the status of our operating partnershipelect and qualify to be taxed as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. However, if the IRS wereREIT, we may not elect to successfully challenge the status of our operating partnershipbe treated as a partnership, it would be taxableREIT or may terminate our REIT election if we determine that qualifying as a corporation. In such event, this would reduce the amount of distributions that our operating partnership could make to us. This would also resultREIT is no longer in our losingbest interests. If we cease to be a REIT, status and becoming subject to a corporate level tax on our own income. This would substantially reduce our cash available to pay distributions and the return on our stockholders’ investment. In addition, if any of the entities through which our operating partnership owns its properties, in whole or in part, loses its characterization as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, the underlying entitywe would become subject to taxation as a corporation, thereby reducing distributions to our operating partnership and jeopardizing our ability to maintain REIT status.

Early investors may receive tax benefits from our election to accelerate depreciation expense deductions of certain components of our investments, including land improvements and fixtures, from which later investors may not benefit.
For U.S. federal income tax purposes, distributions received, including distributions that are reinvested pursuant toon our dividend reinvestment plan, by our investors generally will be considered ordinary dividends to the extent that the distributions are paid out of our current and accumulated earnings and profits (excluding distributions of amounts either attributable to income subject to corporate-level taxation or designated as a capital gain dividend). However, depreciation expenses, among other deductible items, reduce taxable income and earnings and profits but do not reduce cash available for distribution. To the extent that a portion of any distributionswould no longer be required to our investors exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, that portion will be considered a return of capital (a non-taxable distribution) for U.S. federal income tax purposes up to the amount of their tax basis in their shares (and any excess over their tax basis in their shares will result in capital gain from the deemed disposition of the investors’ shares). The amount of distributions considered a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes will not be subject to tax immediately but will instead reduce the tax basisdistribute most of our investors’ investments, generally deferring any tax on that portion of the distribution until they sell their shares or we liquidate. Because we may choose to increase depreciation expense deductions in the earlier years after acquisition of an asset, for U.S. federaltaxable income tax purposes, of certain components of our investments, including land improvements and fixtures through the use of cost segregation studies, our early investors may benefit to the extent that increased depreciation causes all or a portion of the distributions they receive to be considered a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes thereby deferring tax on those distributions, while later investors may not benefit to the extent that the depreciation of these components has already been deducted.
Non-U.S. income or other taxes, and a requirement to withhold any non-U.S. taxes, may apply, and, if so, the amount of net cash from operations payable to our stockholders, will be reduced.
We intendwhich may have adverse consequences on our total return to acquire real property located outside the U.S. and may invest in stock or other securities of entities owning real property located outside the United States. As a result, we may be subject to foreign (i.e., non-U.S.) income taxes, stamp taxes, real property conveyance taxes, withholding taxes, and other foreign taxes or similar impositions in connection with our ownership of foreign real property or foreign securities. The country in which the real property is located may impose such taxes regardless of whether we are profitable and in addition to any U.S. income tax or other U.S. taxes imposed on profits from our investments in such real property or securities. If a foreign country imposes income taxes on profits from our investment in foreign real property or foreign securities, our stockholders will not be eligible to claim a tax creditand on their U.S. federal income tax returns to offset the income taxes paid to the foreign country, and the imposition of any foreign taxes in connection with our ownership and operation of foreign real property or our investment in securities of foreign entities will reduce the amounts distributable to our stockholders. Similarly, the imposition of withholding taxes by a foreign country will reduce the amounts distributable to our stockholders. We expect the organizational costs associated with non-U.S. investments, including costs to structure the investments so as to minimize the impact of foreign taxes, will be higher than those associated with U.S. investments. Moreover, we may be required to file income tax or other information returns in foreign jurisdictions as a resultmarket price of our investments made outside of the U.S. Any organizational costs and reporting requirements will increase our administrative expenses and reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders. Investors are urged to consult with their own tax advisors with respect to the impact of applicable non-U.S. taxes and tax withholding requirements on an investment in our common stock.
Our foreign investments will be subject to changes in foreign tax or other laws, as well as to changes in U.S. tax laws, and such changes could negatively impact our returns from any particular investment.
We may make investments in real estate located outside of the United States. Such investments will typically be structured to minimize non-U.S. taxes, and generally include the use of holding companies. Our ownership, operation and disposition strategy with respect to non-U.S. investments will take into account foreign tax considerations. For example, it is typically advantageous from a tax perspective in non-U.S. jurisdictions to sell interests in a holding company that owns real estate rather than the real estate itself. Buyers of such entities, however, will often discount their purchase price by evaluating any inherent risks or expected tax liability in such entity. Additionally, the pool of buyers for interests in such holding companies is typically more limited than buyers of direct interests in real estate, and we may be forced to dispose of real estate directly, thus potentially incurring higher foreign taxes and negatively affecting the return on the investment.
We will also capitalize our holding companies with debt and equity to reduce foreign income and withholding taxes as appropriate and with consultation with local counsel in each jurisdiction. Such capitalization structures are complex and potentially subject to challenge by foreign and domestic taxing authorities.
We may use certain holding structures for our non-U.S. investments to accommodate the needs of one class of investors which reduce the after-tax returns to other classes of investors. For example, if we interpose an entity treated as a corporation for United States tax purposes in our chain of ownership with respect to any particular investment, U.S. tax-exempt investors will generally benefit as such investment will no longer generate unrelated business taxable income. However, if a corporate entity is interposed in a non-U.S. investment holding structure, this would prevent individual investors from claiming a foreign tax credit for any non-U.S. income taxes incurred by the corporate entity or its subsidiaries.

Foreign investments are subject to changes in foreign tax or other laws. Any such law changes may require us to modify or abandon a particular holding structure. Such changes may also lead to higher tax rates on our foreign investments than we anticipated, regardless of structuring modifications. Additionally, U.S. tax laws with respect to foreign investments are subject to change, and such changes could negatively impact our returns from any particular investment.
Changes recently made to the U.S. tax laws could have a negative impact on our business.
The President signed a tax reform bill into law on December 22, 2017 (the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act”). Among other things, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act:
Reduces the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% (including with respect to oura taxable REIT subsidiary);
Reduces the rate of U.S. federal withholding tax on distributions made to non-U.S. stockholders by a REIT that are attributable to gains from the sale or exchange of U.S. real property interests from 35% to 21%;
If elected, allows an immediate 100% deduction of the cost of certain capital asset investments (generally excluding real estate assets), subject to a phase-down of the deduction percentage over time;
Changes the recovery periods for certain real property and building improvements (for example, to 15 years for qualified improvement property under the modified accelerated cost recovery system if a technical correction is passed, and to 30 years (previously 40 years) for residential real property and 20 years (previously 40 years) for qualified improvement property under the alternative depreciation system);

Restricts the deductibility of interest expense by businesses (generally, to 30% of the business’ adjusted taxable income) except, among others, real property businesses electing out of such restriction; we have not yet determined whether we and/or our subsidiaries can and/or will make such an election;
Requires the use of the less favorable alternative depreciation system to depreciate real property in the event a real property business elects to avoid the interest deduction restriction above;
Restricts the benefits of like-kind exchanges that defer capital gains for tax purposes to exchanges of real property;
Permanently repeals the “technical termination” rule for partnerships, meaning sales or exchanges of the interests in a partnership will be less likely to, among other things, terminate the taxable year of, and restart the depreciable lives of assets held by, such partnership for tax purposes;
Requires accrual method taxpayers to take certain amounts in income no later than the taxable year in which such income is taken into account as revenue in an applicable financial statement prepared under GAAP, which, with respect to certain leases, could accelerate the inclusion of rental income;
Eliminates the federal corporate alternative minimum tax;
Reduces the highest marginal income tax rate for individuals to 37% from 39.6% (excluding, in each case, the 3.8% Medicare tax on net investment income);
Generally allows a deduction for individuals equal to 20% of certain income from pass-through entities, including ordinary dividends distributed by a REIT (excluding capital gain dividends and qualified dividend income), generally resulting in a maximum effective U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to such dividends of 29.6% compared to 37% (excluding, in each case, the 3.8% Medicare tax on net investment income); and
Limits certain deductions for individuals, including deductions for state and local income taxes, and eliminates deductions for miscellaneous itemized deductions (including certain investment expenses).
Many of the provisions in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, in particular those affecting individual taxpayers, expire at the end of 2025.
As a result of the changes to U.S. federal tax laws implemented by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, our taxable income and the amount of distributions to our stockholders required in order to maintain our REIT status, and our relative tax advantage as a REIT, could change. As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our stockholders annually.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is a complex revision to the U.S. federal income tax laws with various impacts on different categories of taxpayers and industries, and will require subsequent rulemaking and interpretation in a number of areas. The long-term impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on the overall economy, government revenues, our tenants, us, and the real estate industry cannot be reliably predicted at this time. Furthermore, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act may negatively impact certain of our tenants’ operating results, financial condition, and future business plans. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act may also result in reduced government revenues, and therefore reduced government spending, which may negatively impact some of our tenants that rely on government funding. There can be no assurance that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act will not negatively impact our operating results, financial condition, and future business operations.

Dividends payable by REITs do not qualify for the reduced tax rates.
In general, the maximum tax rate for dividends payable to domestic stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates is 20%. Dividends payable by REITs, however, are generally not eligible for this reduced rate; provided under current law, individuals may be able to deduct 20% of income received as ordinary REIT dividends, thus reducing the maximum effective U.S. federal income tax rate on such dividend. In addition, Treasury Regulations impose a minimum holding period for the 20% deduction that was not set forth in the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Treasury Regulations, in order for a REIT dividend with respect to a share of REIT stock to be treated as a qualified REIT dividend, the U.S. stockholder (i) must have held the share for more than 45 days during the 91-day period beginning on the date which is 45 days before the date on which such share becomes ex-dividend with respect to such dividend and (ii) cannot have been under an obligation to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property, e.g., pursuant to a short sale. While this tax treatment does not adversely affect the taxation of REITs or dividends paid by REITs, the more favorable rates applicable to regular corporate dividends could cause investors who are individuals, trusts or estates to perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in stock of non-REIT corporations that pay dividends, which could adversely affect the value of the stock of REITs, including our common stock.

Qualifying as a REIT involves highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex Internal Revenue Code provisions for which only limited judicial and administrative authorities exist. Even a technical or inadvertent violation could jeopardize our REIT qualification. Our continued qualification as a REIT will depend on our satisfaction of certain asset, income, organizational, distribution, stockholder ownership and other requirements on a continuing basis. In addition, our ability to satisfy the requirements to qualify as a REIT depends in part on the actions of third parties over which we have no control or only limited influence, including in cases where we own an equity interest in an entity that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
The taxation of distributions to our stockholders can be complex; however, distributions that we make to our stockholders generally will be taxable as ordinary income, which may reduce your anticipated return from an investment in us.
Distributions that we make to our taxable stockholders to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits (and not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend income) generally will be taxable as ordinary income. However, a portion of our distributions may (i) be designated by us as capital gain dividends generally taxable as long-term capital gain to the extent that they are attributable to net capital gain recognized by us, (ii) be designated by us as qualified dividend income generally to the extent they are attributable to dividends we receive from non-REIT corporations, such as our taxable REIT subsidiaries, or (iii) constitute a return of capital generally to the extent that they exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A return of capital distribution is not taxable, but has the effect of reducing the basis of a stockholder’s investment in our common stock.
We may be required to pay some taxes due to actions of a taxable REIT subsidiary which would reduce our cash available for distribution to you.
Any net taxable income earned directly by a taxable REIT subsidiary, or through entities that are disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes as entities separate from our taxable REIT subsidiaries, will be subject to federal and possibly state corporate income tax. In this regard, several provisions of the laws applicable to REITs and their subsidiaries ensure that a taxable REIT subsidiary will be subject to an appropriate level of U.S. federal income taxation. For example, a taxable REIT subsidiary may be limited in its ability to deduct certain interest payments made to an affiliated REIT. In addition, the REIT has to pay a 100% penalty tax on some payments that it receives or on some deductions taken by a taxable REIT subsidiary if the economic arrangements between the REIT, the REIT's customers, and the taxable REIT subsidiary are not comparable to similar arrangements between unrelated parties. Finally, some state and local jurisdictions may tax some of our income even though as a REIT we are not subject to U.S. federal income tax on that income because not all states and localities follow the U.S. federal income tax treatment of REITs. To the extent that we and our affiliates are required to pay federal, state and local taxes, we will have less cash available for distributions to you.
We may distribute our common stock in a taxable distribution, in which case you may sell shares of our common stock to pay tax on such distributions, and you may receive less in cash than the amount of the dividend that is taxable.
We may make taxable distributions that are payable in cash and common stock. The IRS has issued private letter rulings to other REITs treating certain distributions that are paid partly in cash and partly in stock as taxable distributions that would satisfy the REIT annual distribution requirement and qualify for the dividends paid deduction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Those rulings may be relied upon only by taxpayers to whom they were issued, but we could request a similar ruling from the IRS. Accordingly, it is unclear whether and to what extent we will be able to make taxable distributions payable in cash and common stock. If we made a taxable dividend payable in cash and common stock, taxable stockholders receiving such distributions will be required to include the dividend as taxable income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, you may be required to pay income tax with respect to such distributions in excess of the cash distributions received. If a U.S. stockholder sells the common stock that it receives as a dividend in order to pay this tax, the sales proceeds may be less than the amount recorded in earnings with respect to the dividend, depending on the market price of our common stock at the time of the sale. Furthermore, with respect to certain non-U.S. stockholders, we may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax with respect to such dividends, including in respect of all or a portion of such dividend that is payable in common stock.
Investments in other REITs and real estate partnerships could subject us to the tax risks associated with the tax status of such entities.
We may invest in the securities of other REITs and real estate partnerships. Such investments are subject to the risk that any such REIT or partnership may fail to satisfy the requirements to qualify as a REIT or a partnership, as the case may be, in any given taxable year. In the case of a REIT, such failure would subject such entity to taxation as a corporation, may require such REIT to incur indebtedness to pay its tax liabilities, may reduce its ability to make distributions to us, and may render it ineligible to elect REIT status prior to the fifth taxable year following the year in which it fails to so qualify. In the case of a partnership, such failure could subject such partnership to an entity level tax and reduce the entity’s ability to make distributions to us. In addition, such failures could, depending on the circumstances, jeopardize our ability to qualify as a REIT.

Non-U.S. stockholders will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax and may be subject to U.S. federal income tax on distributions received from us and upon the disposition of our shares.
Subject to certain exceptions, distributions received from us will be treated as dividends of ordinary income to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits. Such dividends ordinarily will be subject to U.S. withholding tax at a 30% rate, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty, unless the distributions are treated as “effectively connected” with the conduct by the non-U.S. stockholder of a U.S. trade or business. Pursuant to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980, or FIRPTA, capital gain distributions attributable to sales or exchanges of “U.S. real property interests,” or USRPIs, generally (subject to certain exceptions for “qualified foreign pension funds” and certain “qualified shareholders”) will be taxed to a non-U.S. stockholder (other than a qualified foreign pension plan, entities wholly owned by a qualified foreign pension plan and certain publicly traded foreign entities) as if such gain were effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business unless FIRPTA provides an exemption. However, a capital gain dividend will not be treated as effectively connected income if (i) the distribution is received with respect to a class of stock that is regularly traded on an established securities market located in the United States and (ii) the non-U.S. stockholder does not own more than 10% of the class of our stock at any time during the one-year period ending on the date the distribution is received. We do not anticipate that our shares will be “regularly traded” on an established securities market for the foreseeable future, and therefore, this exception is not expected to apply.
Gain recognized by a non-U.S. stockholder upon the sale or exchange of our common stock generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxation unless such stock constitutes a USRPI under FIRPTA (subject to specific FIRPTA exemptions for certain non-U.S. stockholders). Our common stock will not constitute a USRPI so long as we are a “domestically-controlled qualified investment entity.” A domestically-controlled qualified investment entity includes a REIT if at all times during a specified testing period, less than 50% in value of such REIT’s stock is held directly or indirectly by non-U.S. stockholders. We believe, but cannot assure you, that we will be a domestically-controlled qualified investment entity.
Even if we do not qualify as a domestically-controlled qualified investment entity at the time a non-U.S. stockholder sells or exchanges our common stock, gain arising from such a sale or exchange would not be subject to U.S. taxation under FIRPTA as a sale of a USRPI if: (a) our common stock is “regularly traded,” as defined by applicable Treasury Regulations, on an established securities market, and (b) such non-U.S. stockholder owned, actually and constructively, 10% or less of our common stock at any time during the five-year period ending on the date of the sale. However, it is not anticipated that our common stock will be “regularly traded” on an established market. We encourage you to consult your tax advisor to determine the tax consequences applicable to you if you are a non-U.S. stockholder.
We may be subject to adverse legislative or regulatory tax changes.
At any time, the U.S. federal income tax laws or regulations governing REITs or the administrative interpretations of those laws or regulations may be amended. We cannot predict when or if any new U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation, or any amendment to any existing U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation, will be adopted, promulgated or become effective and any such law, regulation or interpretation may take effect retroactively. We and our stockholders could be adversely affected by any such change in, or any new, U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation.
Retirement Plan Risks
If the fiduciary of an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA (such as a profit sharing, Section 401(k) or pension plan) or an owner of a retirement arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code (such as an IRA) fails to meet the fiduciary and other standards under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code as a result of an investment in our stock, the fiduciary could be subject to penalties and other sanctions.
There are special considerations that apply to employee benefit plans subject to ERISA (such as profit sharing, Section 401(k) or pension plans) and other retirement plans or accounts subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code (such as an IRA) that are investing in our shares. Fiduciaries and IRA owners investing the assets of such a plan or account in our common stock should satisfy themselves that:
the investment is consistent with their fiduciary and other obligations under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code;
the investment is made in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the plan or IRA, including the plan’s or account’s investment policy;
the investment satisfies the prudence and diversification requirements of Sections 404(a)(1)(B) and 404(a)(1)(C) of ERISA and other applicable provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code;
the investment in our shares, for which no public market currently exists, is consistent with the liquidity needs of the plan or IRA;
the investment will not produce an unacceptable amount of “unrelated business taxable income” for the plan or IRA;
39

Table of Contents
our stockholders will be able to comply with the requirements under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code to value the assets of the plan or IRA annually; and
the investment will not constitute a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.
With respect to the annual valuation requirements described above, we will provide an estimated value for our stock annually. We can make no claim whether such estimated value will satisfy the applicable annual valuation requirements under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code. The Department of Labor or the Internal Revenue Service may determine that a plan fiduciary or an IRA custodian is required to take further steps to determine the value of our common stock. In the absence of an appropriate determination of value, a plan fiduciary or an IRA custodian may be subject to damages, penalties or other sanctions.
Failure to satisfy the fiduciary standards of conduct and other applicable requirements of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code may result in the imposition of civil and criminal penalties and could subject the fiduciary to claims for damages or for equitable remedies, including liability for investment losses. In addition, if an investment in our shares constitutes a prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code, the fiduciary or IRA owner who authorized or directed the investment may be subject to the imposition of excise taxes with respect to the amount invested. In addition, the investment transaction must be undone. In the case of a prohibited transaction involving an IRA owner, the IRA may be disqualified as a tax-exempt account and all of the assets of the IRA may be deemed distributed and subjected to tax. ERISA plan fiduciaries and IRA owners should consult with counsel before making an investment in our common stock.

If our assets are deemed to be plan assets, our advisor and we may be exposed to liabilities under Title I of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code.
In some circumstances where an ERISA plan holds an interest in an entity, the assets of the entity are deemed to be ERISA plan assets unless an exception applies. This is known as the “look-through rule.” Under those circumstances, the obligations and other responsibilities of plan sponsors, plan fiduciaries and plan administrators, and of parties in interest and disqualified persons, under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code, may be applicable, and there may be liability under these and other provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code. We believe that our assets should not be treated as plan assets because the shares should qualify as “publicly-offered securities” that are exempt from the look-through rules under applicable Treasury Regulations. We note, however, that because certain limitations are imposed upon the transferability of shares so that we may qualify as a REIT, and perhaps for other reasons, it is possible that this exemption may not apply. If that is the case, and if we or our advisor are exposed to liability under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code, our performance and results of operations could be adversely affected. Stockholders should consult with their legal and other advisors concerning the impact of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code on their investment and our performance.
Risks Related to the Merger
The merger consideration would not be adjusted in the event of any change in the relative values of the common stock of POSOR or us.
Upon the consummation of the Merger, each outstanding share of our common stock will be converted automatically into the right to receive 0.9643 shares of POSOR common stock. The exchange ratio will not be adjusted before or after consummation of the Merger. Except as expressly contemplated in the Merger Agreement, no change in the Merger consideration will be made for any reason, including the following (which may occur prior to consummation of the Merger or any time thereafter):
changes in the respective businesses, operations, assets, liabilities and prospects of POSOR or us;
changes in the estimated value per share of either the shares of POSOR common stock or our common stock;
interest rates, general market and economic conditions, market and economic conditions in specific geographic regions, and other factors generally affecting the businesses of POSOR and us;
federal, state and local legislation, governmental regulation and legal developments in the businesses in which POSOR and we operate;
dissident stockholder activity, including any stockholder litigation challenging the transaction; and
acquisitions, disposals or new development opportunities.

ITEM 1B.UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
Completion of the Merger is subject to many conditions and if these conditions are not satisfied or waived, the Merger will not be completed, which could result in the expenditure of significant unrecoverable transaction costs.
The Merger Agreement is subject to many conditions, which must be satisfied or waived in order to complete the Merger. The mutual conditions of the parties include, among others, the approval by our stockholders of the Merger and an amendment to our charter. In addition, each party’s obligation to consummate the Merger is subject to certain other conditions, including, among others: (a) the accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties (subject to customary materiality qualifiers and other customary exceptions); (b) the other party’s compliance with its covenants and agreements contained in the Merger Agreement (subject to customary materiality qualifiers); (c) the absence of any change, event, circumstance or development arising during the period from the date of the Merger Agreement until the effective time of the Merger that has had or would have a material adverse effect on the other party; (d) the receipt of an opinion of counsel of the other party to the effect that such party has been organized and has operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT; and (e) the receipt of an opinion of counsel of each party to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.
There can be no assurance that the conditions to closing of the Merger will be satisfied or waived or that the Merger will be completed. Failure to consummate the Merger may adversely affect POSOR’s or our results of operations and business prospects for the following reasons, among others: (i) each of POSOR and we have incurred and will continue to incur certain transaction costs, regardless of whether the Merger closes, which could adversely affect each company’s financial condition, results of operations and ability to make distributions to its stockholders; and (ii) the Merger, whether or not it closes, will divert the attention of certain management and other key employees of POSOR and us from ongoing business activities, including the pursuit of other opportunities that could be beneficial to POSOR or us, respectively. In addition, POSOR or we may terminate the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, including, among other reasons, if the Merger is not completed by the November 19, 2020 (the “Outside Date”).
Failure to complete the Merger could negatively impact our future business and financial results.
If the Merger is not completed, our ongoing business could be materially and adversely affected and we will be subject to a variety of risks associated with the failure to complete the Merger, including the following:
our being required to pay to POSOR a termination fee of up to $9.28 million and up to $3 million as reimbursement for POSOR’s expenses in the event of termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances;
our having to pay certain costs relating to the proposed merger, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor, filing, printing and mailing fees; and
the diversion of our management focus and resources from operational matters and other strategic opportunities while working to implement the Merger.
If the Merger is not completed, these risks could materially affect our business and financial results.
The pendency of the Merger, including as a result of the restrictions on the operation of POSOR’s and our business during the period between signing the Merger Agreement and the completion of the Merger, could adversely affect the business and operations of POSOR, us, or both.
In connection with the pending Merger, some business partners or vendors of each of POSOR and ours may delay or defer decisions, which could negatively impact the revenues, earnings, cash flows and expenses of POSOR and us, regardless of whether the Merger is completed. In addition, due to operating covenants in the Merger Agreement, each of POSOR and we may be unable, during the pendency of the Merger, to pursue certain strategic transactions, undertake certain significant capital projects, undertake certain significant financing transactions and otherwise pursue other actions that are not in the ordinary course of business, even if such actions would prove beneficial.

We are seeking approval of its stockholders of an amendment to our charter, which would remove substantive and procedural protections relating to Roll-Up Transactions such as the Merger.
We are seeking approval of its stockholders of an amendment to our charter. If adopted, this proposal would remove substantive and procedural protections relating to Roll-Up Transactions. A “Roll-up Transaction” is a transaction involving the acquisition, merger, conversion or consolidation, directly or indirectly, of us and the issuance of securities of an entity that is created or would survive after the successful completion of a Roll-up Transaction. The proposed charter amendment would eliminate certain protections that would have applied to the Merger. For example, the our charter provides that prior to conducting a Roll-Up Transaction, we would be required to obtain an appraisal of our assets. In addition, as part of the Roll-Up Transaction, we would be required to provide stockholders certain rights including the right to remain as a stockholder of us and preserve their interests therein on the same terms and conditions as existed previously, or to receive cash in an amount equal to the stockholders pro rata share of our appraised value of the net assets, even if the our board of directors concludes that transaction would be in our best interests. Because the Merger is conditioned on approval of the amendment to our charter, our stockholders will not be entitled to the benefit of these protections in connection with the Merger.
The Merger Agreement prohibits us from soliciting proposals after the Go Shop Period End Time, and places conditions on its ability to negotiate and accept a Superior Proposal, which may adversely affect our stockholders.
In the Merger Agreement, we agreed that, beginning as of 11:59 p.m. April 4, 2020 (the “Go Shop Period End Time”), we will be subject to restrictions relating to, among other things, the initiation, solicitation, knowing encouragement or facilitation of any inquiries, offers, or other actions that constitute or may reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal (as such term is defined under the Merger Agreement). After that date, under certain circumstances, if we receive an Acquisition Proposal from any person that did not result from a breach of its obligations and if our special committee determines that such Acquisition Proposal is or is reasonably expected to lead to a Superior Proposal (as such term is defined under the Merger Agreement), our special committee may take certain actions, including furnishing non-public information with respect to us (subject to compliance with certain matters). We may, upon our board of directors making certain determinations relating to its duties, disclose to our stockholders any information required to be disclosed under applicable law.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, our board of directors may also, upon making certain determinations, to make an Adverse Recommendation Change (as such term is defined under the Merger Agreement), terminate the Merger Agreement, pay a termination fee to POSOR and enter into an agreement relating to a Superior Proposal. The limitations, requirements and conditions described above may make it more unlikely that after the Go Shop Period End Time, a proposal relating to an alternative business combination transaction would emerge for us and may make it more difficult and expensive for us to accept a proposal relating to an alternative business combination transaction that the our special committee determines to be superior to the Merger.
The Merger Agreement contains provisions that could discourage a potential competing acquirer of us or could result in a competing Acquisition Proposal being at a lower price than it might otherwise be.
Except for a 45-day go shop period that expires at the Go Shop Period End Time, the Merger Agreement contains provisions that, subject to limited exceptions, restrict our ability to solicit, initiate or knowingly facilitate or encourage any Acquisition Proposal. With respect to any written, bona fide Acquisition Proposal that we receive, POSOR generally has an opportunity to offer to modify the terms of the Merger Agreement in response to such proposal before our board of directors may change, withdraw, or modify its recommendation to stockholders in response to such Acquisition Proposal or terminate the Merger Agreement to enter into an agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances relating to an Acquisition Proposal, we would have to pay POSOR a termination fee of $9.28 million in connection with a transaction initiated after the go shop process and, in addition, up to $3 million as reimbursement for POSOR’s expenses.
These provisions could discourage a potential competing acquirer that might have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of our business from considering or making a competing Acquisition Proposal, even if the potential competing acquirer was prepared to pay consideration with a higher per share cash value than that market value proposed to be received or realized in the Merger, or might cause a potential competing acquirer to propose to pay a lower price than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the termination fee that may become payable in certain circumstances under the Merger Agreement.

Some of the directors and executive officers of POSOR I and POSOR II have interests in seeing the Merger completed that are different from, or in addition to, those of the POSOR I and POSOR II stockholders.
Some of the directors and executive officers of POSOR I and POSOR II have interests in seeing the Merger completed that are different from, or in addition to, those of the POSOR I and POSOR II stockholders. Specifically, Keith D. Hall and Peter McMillan III control and indirectly own Pacific Oak Holding Group, LLC, our sponsor and POSOR I’s sponsor since November 1, 2019. Pacific Oak Holding is the sole owner of Pacific Oak Capital Advisors, LLC, our advisor and POSOR I’s advisor since November 1, 2019. Messrs. Hall and McMillan are also two of our executive officers and directors and two of POSOR I’s executive officers and directors. Pacific Oak Capital Advisors earns fees from our advisory agreement with them and from POSOR II’s advisory agreement with them. The Merger may make it more likely that Pacific Oak Capital Advisors will continue to earn fees under the advisory agreement with respect to our and POSOR II’s assets, as compared to other strategic alternatives for us or POSOR I (such as a sale of our assets to a third party for cash).
In certain circumstances, either of POSOR or we may terminate the Merger Agreement.
POSOR or we may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Merger has not been consummated by the Outside Date. Also, the Merger Agreement may be terminated if a final and non-appealable order is entered prohibiting or disapproving the transaction, upon a material uncured breach by the other party that would cause the closing conditions not to be satisfied, or upon the failure to obtain receipt of approvals of the our stockholders. In addition, we have the right to terminate the Merger Agreement at any time prior to obtaining the necessary approvals of the our stockholders in order to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement (as such term is defined under the Merger Agreement) with respect to a Superior Proposal. Finally, POSOR has the right to terminate the Merger Agreement at any time prior to obtaining the approvals of the our stockholders, upon an Adverse Recommendation Change (as such term is defined under the Merger Agreement) or upon the commencement of a tender offer.
POSOR and we each expect to incur substantial expenses related to the Merger.
POSOR and we each expect to incur substantial expenses in connection with completing the Merger and integrating our properties and operations with those of POSOR. While POSOR and we each have assumed that a certain level of transaction expenses would be incurred, there are a number of factors beyond the control of each company that could affect the total amount or the timing of such expenses. Many of the expenses that will be incurred, by their nature, are difficult to estimate accurately at the present time. As a result, the transaction expenses associated with the Merger could, particularly in the near term, exceed the savings that POSOR expects to achieve from the elimination of duplicative expenses and the realization of economies of scale and cost savings following the completion of the Merger.
The ownership positions of POSOR and our stockholders will be diluted by the Merger.
The Merger will dilute the ownership position of POSOR stockholders and result in our stockholders having an ownership stake in the combined company (“Combined Company”) that is smaller than their current stake in us. Upon completion of the Merger, based on the number of shares of POSOR common stock and our common stock outstanding on March 23, 2020, continuing POSOR stockholders will own approximately 69.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of Combined Company common stock, and our stockholders will own approximately 30.6% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Combined Company. Consequently, POSOR stockholders and our stockholders, as a general matter, will have less influence over the management and policies of the Combined Company following the Merger than each currently exercise over the management and policies of POSOR and us, as applicable.
Litigation challenging the Merger may increase transaction costs and prevent the Merger from becoming effective or from becoming effective within the expected timeframe.
If any stockholder files a lawsuit challenging the Merger, POSOR and we can provide no assurances as to the outcome of any such lawsuit, including the costs associated with defending these claims or any other liabilities that may be incurred in connection with the litigation or settlement of these claims. If plaintiffs are successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting the parties from completing the Merger on the agreed-upon terms, such an injunction may prevent the completion of the Merger in the expected time frame, or may prevent it from being completed altogether. Whether or not any such plaintiffs’ claims are successful, this type of litigation is often expensive and diverts management’s attention and resources, which could adversely affect the operations of each company’s business.

Risks Related to the Combined Company Following the Merger
The Combined Company will have substantial indebtedness upon completion of the Merger.
In connection with the Merger, the Combined Company will assume and/or refinance certain indebtedness of ours and will be subject to risks associated with debt financing. As of December 31, 2019, POSOR had $678.1 million of outstanding debt, comprised of $385.4 million of variable interest and $292.7 million of fixed interest loans. After giving effect to the Merger, the Combined Company’s total pro forma consolidated indebtedness will increase. Taking into account our existing indebtedness, transaction expenses, and the assumption and/or refinancing of indebtedness in the Merger, the Combined Company’s pro forma consolidated indebtedness as of December 31, 2019, after giving effect to the Merger, would be approximately $1.0 billion. The indebtedness of the Combined Company will be comprised of $715.0 million of variable interest loans and $292.7 million of fixed interest loans.
The Combined Company’s indebtedness could have important consequences to holders of its common stock, including our stockholders who receive POSOR common stock in the Merger, including:
vulnerability of the Combined Company to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
limiting the Combined Company’s ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate requirements;
requiring the use of a substantial portion of the Combined Company’s cash flow from operations for the payment of principal and interest on its indebtedness, thereby reducing its ability to use its cash flow to fund working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures and general corporate requirements;
limiting the Combined Company’s flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and its industry; and
putting the Combined Company at a disadvantage compared to its competitors with less indebtedness;
If the Combined Company defaults under a mortgage loan, it would automatically be in default under any other loan that has cross-default provisions, and it may lose the properties securing these loans.
Following the consummation of the Merger, our stockholders will receive a lower dollar amount per share in monthly distributions if the Combined Company continues to pay distributions at POSOR’s current rate.
POSOR’s distributions are currently equivalent to a 0.00258% annualized distribution rate based on a purchase price of $10.00 per share, or $0.0258 per share annually. Our distributions are currently equivalent to a 0.0112% annualized distribution rate based on $10.00 per share, or $0.112 per share annually. Based on the merger consideration of 0.9643 shares of POSOR common stock for each share of our common stock, annual distributions post-merger are expected to be approximately $0.0258 per share at the current POSOR distribution rate. There is no guarantee that the Combined Company will continue to pay distributions at this rate, if at all, and all decisions regarding future distributions will remain entirely at the discretion of the Combined Company’s board of directors.
Stockholders of the Combined Company will have no contractual or other legal right to distributions that have not been authorized by the Combined Company’s board of directors and declared by the Combined Company.
The Combined Company may incur adverse tax consequences if prior to the Merger, POSOR or we failed to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Each of POSOR and we have operated in a manner that it believes has allowed it to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Code and intends to continue to do so through the time of the Merger, and the Combined Company intends to continue operating in such a manner following the Merger. None of POSOR or we have requested or plans to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, that it qualifies as a REIT. 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 is greater in the case of a REIT, like each of POSOR and us, that holds its assets through a partnership. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within the control of POSOR or us may affect its ability to qualify as a REIT. In order to qualify as a REIT, each of POSOR and we must satisfy a number of requirements, including requirements regarding the ownership of its stock and the composition of its gross income and assets. Also, a REIT must make distributions to stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, excluding any net capital gains.

44

Table of Contents
If POSOR or our company (or, following the Merger, the Combined Company) loses its REIT status, or is determined to have lost its REIT status in a prior year, it will face serious tax consequences that would substantially reduce its cash available for distribution, including cash available to pay dividends to its stockholders, because:
it would be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on its net income for the years it did not qualify for taxation as a REIT (and, for such years, would not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to stockholders in computing its taxable income);
it could be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for taxable years prior to January 1, 2018 and possibly increased state and local taxes for such periods;
unless it is entitled to relief under applicable statutory provisions, neither it nor any “successor” company could elect to be taxed as a REIT until the fifth taxable year following the year during which it was disqualified; and
for five years following re-election of REIT status, upon a taxable disposition of an asset owned as of such re-election, it could be subject to corporate level tax with respect to any built-in gain inherent in such asset at the time of re-election.
As a result of all these factors, any of POSOR, our or the Combined Company’s failure to qualify as a REIT could impair the Combined Company’s ability to expand its business and have other material adverse effects on the Combined Company. In addition, for years in which the Combined Company does not qualify as a REIT, it would not otherwise be required to make distributions to stockholders.
In certain circumstances, even if the Combined Company qualifies as a REIT, it and its subsidiaries may be subject to certain U.S. federal, state, and other taxes, which would reduce the Combined Company’s cash available for distribution to its stockholders.
Even if the Combined Company has qualified and continues to qualify as a REIT, it may be subject to some U.S. federal, state and local taxes on its income or property and, in certain cases, a 100% penalty tax, in the event it sells property as a dealer. Any U.S. federal, state or other taxes the Combined Company pays will reduce its cash available for distribution to stockholders.
If the Merger does not qualify as a tax-free reorganization, there may be adverse tax consequences.
The Merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The closing of the Merger is conditioned on the receipt by each of POSOR and us of an opinion of its counsel to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. However, these legal opinions will not be binding on the IRS or on the courts. If, for any reason, the Merger were to fail to qualify as a tax-free reorganization, then each of our stockholders generally would recognize gain or loss, as applicable, equal to the difference between (i) the merger consideration (i.e. the fair market value of the shares of POSOR common stock) received by our stockholders in the Merger; and (ii) our stockholder’s adjusted tax basis in our common stock.
The Combined Company may have difficulty providing liquidity to stockholders through its share redemption program and/or tender offers.
The Merger is not a liquidity event for our stockholders or those of POSOR I. Both we and POSOR have had recent difficulty in satisfying redemption requests under our respective share redemption programs. In January 2019, we exhausted funds available for redemptions under our share redemption program, other than special redemption requests submitted in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence.” As a result, in 2019, we redeemed a total of 277,452 shares in connection with ordinary redemption requests. In January 2020, we again exhausted funds available for redemptions other than special redemptions. We currently have outstanding and unfulfilled ordinary redemption requests representing 808,172 shares. With respect to POSOR, other than special redemption requests, for the first, second, third and fourth quarters of 2019, it had unfulfilled requests to redeem 3,294,070, 3,782,675, 4,595,566 and 5,813,699 shares, respectively, or 94.2%, 94.9%, 95.7% and 96.8%, respectively, of the shares submitted for redemption, due to funding limitations. It currently has $0.8 million available for redemptions in 2020, all of which is reserved exclusively for special redemptions.
We cannot predict the demand for liquidity by stockholders of the Combined Company following the Merger, but if it simply remains at 2019 and 2020 levels, the Combined Company will need to provide additional funding compared to prior years in order to meet demand. We may not have sufficient funding to satisfy the demand for liquidity. The Combined Company’s primary source for funding is currently expected to be a portion of the net proceeds from new ongoing public offerings as an NAV REIT and potential Israeli offerings, but we cannot guarantee that the net proceeds raised will be sufficient to satisfy the demand for liquidity and our other capital needs, such as capital expenditures and funds for new investments. If future redemption requests exceed the amount of funding available under the Combined Company’s share redemption program and any additional funding made available under one or more self-tender offers, the number of rejected redemption or repurchase requests will increase over time.

TRS Leases
Our hotels are leased by the respective joint venture owners of each hotel (the “Hotel Owner Joint Venture”) to a second joint venture (the “Hotel Operations Joint Venture”) we have formed between each hotel’s respective joint venture partner and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary we have formed with respect to each hotel that we have elected to treat as a TRS.
Each lease agreement provides for a five-year term with the right for the respective Hotel Operations Joint Venture to extend the term of the lease for up to three additional terms of three years each; provided, however, that the Hotel Owner Joint Venture has the right to terminate the lease upon the sale of the hotel or any members of the Hotel Owner Joint Venture buying out any other member, as well as upon the occurrence of an event of default under the respective lease agreement.
Pursuant to the lease agreements, the Hotel Operations Joint Venture will pay to the Hotel Owner Joint Venture, on a monthly basis, an annual base rent. The annual base rent will be adjusted as set forth in the lease agreements beginning in 2016 as well as prorated for any partial years. For the Springmaid Beach Resort, the annual base rent was $3.3 million for 2018 and is $3.1 million for 2019.2019 and is $3.2 million for 2020. For the Q&C Hotel the annual base rent was $3.4 million for 2018 and is $3.5 million for 2019.2019 and is $3.6 million for 2020.
In addition to annual base rent, each respective Hotel Operations Joint Venture will pay a monthly percentage rent to the respective Hotel Owner Joint Venture equal to (i) an agreed percentage of year-to-date gross revenue that exceeds certain annual threshold amounts, less (ii) all prior percentage rent payments. Each respective Hotel Operations Joint Venture is also required to establish and fund a repairs and replacement reserve for the periodic refurbishment, replacements and non-routine repairs of all tangible personal property owned by the respective Hotel Owner Joint Venture. For each lease, the reserve is a percentage of gross receipts as set forth in the lease agreement. For Springmaid Beach Resort, this percentage ranges from 1% to 4%. For Q&C Hotel, this percentage ranges from 2% to 5%. In addition, the lease agreements require each Hotel Operations Joint Venture to pay all income taxes, rent, and all costs and expenses and utility and other charges incurred in the operations of the respective hotel.

Management Agreements
For us to qualify as a REIT, we cannot directly or indirectly operate any of our hotels. Third parties must operate our hotels. As described above, our hotels are leased to TRS lessees, which in turn have engaged property managers to manage our hotels pursuant to a hotel management agreement.
Springmaid Beach Resort
The Springmaid Hotel Operations Joint Venture has entered a management agreement with Doubletree Management LLC, an independent third-party hotel operator (“Doubletree”) pursuant to which Doubletree will manage and operate the Springmaid Beach Resort. The hotel was branded a DoubleTree by Hilton in September 2016 (the “Brand Commencement Date”).

In addition, the Springmaid Hotel Owner Joint Venture is responsible for providing funds to meet the cash needs for the hotel operations if at any time the funds available from hotel operations are insufficient to meet the financial requirements of the hotel. The management agreement expires on December 31 of the 20th full year following the Brand Commencement Date. Upon mutual agreement, the parties may extend the term of the agreement for two successive periods of five years each. If an event of default occurs and continues beyond any applicable notice and cure periods set forth in the management agreement, the non-defaulting party generally has, among other remedies, the option of terminating the management agreement upon written notice to the defaulting party with no termination fee payable to Doubletree. In addition, we have the right to terminate the management agreement without the payment of a termination fee if Doubletree fails to achieve certain criteria relating to the performance of the hotel for any two consecutive years following the Brand Commencement Date. Under certain circumstances following a casualty or condemnation event, either party may terminate the management agreement provided Doubletree receives a termination fee an amount equal to two years of the base fee. We are permitted to terminate the management agreement upon a sale, lease or other transfer of the Springmaid Beach Resort any time so long as the buyer is approved for, and enters into a DoubleTree by Hilton franchise agreement for the balance of the agreement’s term. Finally, we are restricted in our ability to assign the management agreement upon a sale, lease or other transfer the Springmaid Beach Resort unless the transferee is approved by Doubletree to assume the management agreement.
Pursuant to the management agreement Doubletree receives the following fees:
a base fee, which is a percentage of total operating revenue that starts at 2.5% and increases to 2.75% in the second year following the Brand Commencement Date and further increases in the third year following the Brand Commencement Date and thereafter to 3.0%;
a campground area management fee, which is 2% of any campground revenue;
an incentive fee, which is 15% of operating cash flow (after deduction for capital renewals reserve and the Springmaid Hotel Owner Joint Venture’s priority, which is 12% of the Springmaid Hotel Owner Joint Venture’s total investment);
an additional services fee in the amount reasonably determined by Doubletree from time to time; and
a brand services fee in the amount of 4% of total rooms revenue, and an other brand services fee in an amount determined by Doubletree from time to time.
Q&C Hotel
A wholly owned subsidiary of the Q&C Hotel Operations Joint Venture (“Q&C Hotel Operations”) has entered a management agreement with Encore Hospitality, LLC (“Encore Hospitality”), an affiliate of the Q&C JV Partner, pursuant to which Encore Hospitality will manage and operate the Q&C Hotel. The management agreement expires on December 17, 2035. Subject to certain conditions, Encore Hospitality may extend the term of the agreement for a period of five years. Q&C Hotel Operations may terminate the management agreement upon (1) the occurrence of an event of default that continues beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, (2) a sale of the Q&C Hotel, (3) a change of control of Encore Hospitality without Q&C Hotel Operations’ approval, (4) a failure of Encore Hospitality to meet certain performance thresholds, (5) a sale of the Q&C Joint Venture Partner’s interest in the joint venture to us, and (6) if Q&C Hotel Operations is required to do so pursuant to the terms of the loan documents or the franchise agreement. Pursuant to the management agreement Encore Hospitality will receive a base fee, which is 4.0% of gross revenue (as defined in the management agreement).

Q&C Hotel Operations has also entered a franchise agreement with Marriott International (“Marriott”) pursuant to which Marriott has granted Q&C Hotel Operations a limited, non-exclusive license to establish and operate the Q&C Hotel using certain of Marriott’s proprietary marks and systems and the hotel was branded as a Marriott Autograph Collection hotel on May 25, 2016. The franchise agreement will expire on May 25, 2041 with no renewal options. Marriott may terminate the franchise agreement immediately upon certain defaults and after an opportunity to cure with respect to certain other defaults. Pursuant to the franchise agreement, commencing on May 25, 2016, Q&C Hotel Operations will pay Marriott a monthly franchise fee equal to a percent of gross room sales on a sliding scale that is initially 2% and increases to 5% after the third anniversary of the opening date and a monthly marketing fund contribution fee equal to 1.5% of the Q&C Hotel’s gross room sales. In addition, the franchise agreement requires the maintenance of a reserve account to fund all renovations at the hotel based on a percentage of gross revenues which starts at 2% of gross revenues and increases to 5% of gross revenues after May 25, 2019. Q&C Hotel Operations will also be responsible for the payment of certain other fees, charges and costs as set forth in the agreement.
In addition, in connection with the execution of the franchise agreement, KBSPacific Oak SOR US Properties II LLC (“SOR US Properties II”), our indirect wholly owned subsidiary, is providing an unconditional guarantee that all Q&C Hotel Operations’ obligations under the franchise agreement will be punctually paid and performed. Finally, certain transfers of the Q&C Hotel or an ownership interest therein are subject to a notice and consent requirement, and the franchise agreement further provides Marriott with a right of first refusal with respect to a sale of the hotel to a competitor of Marriott.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Stockholder Information
As of March 4, 2019,23, 2020, we had 17,920,46017,842,301 and 12,216,24412,222,529 shares of Class A and Class T common stock, respectively, outstanding held by a total of approximately 3,200 and 2,600 stockholders, respectively. The number of stockholders is based on the records of DST Systems, Inc., who serves as our transfer agent.
Market Information
No public market currently exists for our shares of common stock, and we currently have no plans to list our shares on a national securities exchange. Until our shares are listed, if ever, our stockholders may not sell their shares unless the buyer meets applicable suitability and minimum purchase requirements. In addition, our charter prohibits the ownership of more than 9.8% of our stock, unless exempted by our board of directors. Consequently, there is the risk that our stockholders may not be able to sell their shares at a time or price acceptable to them.
We provide an estimated value per share to assist broker-dealers that participate in our initial public offering in meeting their customer account statement reporting obligations under National Association of Securities Dealers Conduct Rule 2340 as required by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). This valuation was performed in accordance with the provisions of and also to comply with Practice Guideline 2013-01, Valuations of Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REITs issued by the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives (formerly known as the Investment Program Association) (“IPA”) in April 2013 (the “IPA Valuation Guidelines”). For this purpose, we estimated the value of the shares of our common stock as $9.65$10.25 per share as of December 31, 2018.2019. This estimated value per share is based on our board of directors’ approval on December 6, 201817, 2019 of an estimated value per share of our common stock of $9.65$10.25 based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, or NAV, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2018. There2019, with the exception of the following adjustments: (i) our consolidated investments in real estate properties were valued as of October 31, 2019; (ii) an adjustment to reduce cash for the amount of capital expenditures incurred in October 2019; (iii) an adjustment for disposition costs and fees incurred in connection with the disposition of 2200 Paseo Verde (collectively the "Adjustments"). Other than the Adjustments, there were no material changes between September 30, 20182019 and December 6, 201817, 2019 that impacted the overall estimated NAV per share.
Our conflicts committee, composed solely of all of our independent directors, is responsible for the oversight of the valuation process used to determine the estimated NAV per share of our common stock, including the review and approval of the valuation and appraisal processes and methodologies used to determine our estimated NAV per share, the consistency of the valuation and appraisal methodologies with real estate industry standards and practices and the reasonableness of the assumptions used in the valuations and appraisals. The estimated NAV per share was based upon the recommendation and valuation prepared by our advisor. WithOur advisor's valuation of our consolidated investments in real estate properties was based on (i) appraisals of all but one property (“Appraised Properties”) performed by the approval of the conflicts committee, we engagedindependent third-party real estate valuation firm Duff & Phelps, LLC (“Duff & Phelps”), and (ii) the contractual sale price less estimated selling credits for an independent third-party real estate valuation firm, to provide appraisals for each of our consolidated investmentsoffice property located in real properties owned as of September 30, 2018 (the “Appraised Properties”) for use by our advisor in calculating and recommending an estimated NAV per share.Henderson, Nevada (2200 Paseo Verde) which was sold on November 4, 2019. Duff & Phelps prepared appraisal reports, summarizing key inputs and assumptions for each of the Appraised Properties. Our advisor performed valuations of our cash, restricted cash, investment in real estate equity securities, investment in an unconsolidated entity, other assets, mortgage debt and other liabilities. The methodologies and assumptions used to determine the estimated value of our assets and the estimated value of our liabilities are described further below.
Our advisor used the appraised values of the Appraised Properties and in the case of 2200 Paseo Verde, the contractual sales price less estimated selling credits, together with its estimated value of each of our other assets and liabilities to calculate and recommend an estimated NAV per share of our common stock. Based on (i) the conflicts committee’s receipt and review of our advisor’sadvisor's valuation report, including our advisor’sadvisor's summary of the appraisal reports prepared by Duff & Phelps and our advisor’sadvisor's estimated value of each of our other assets and our liabilities, (ii) the conflicts committee’s review of the reasonableness of our estimated NAV per share resulting from our advisor’s valuation process, and (iii) other factors considered by the conflicts committee and the conflicts committee’s own extensive knowledge of our assets and liabilities, the conflicts committee concluded that the estimated NAV per share proposed by our advisor was reasonable and recommended to our board of directors that it adopt $9.65$10.25 as the estimated NAV per share of our common stock. The board of directors unanimously agreed to accept the recommendation of the conflicts committee and approved $9.65$10.25 as the estimated NAV per share of our common stock, which determination is ultimately and solely the responsibility of the board of directors.

(1) The JuneDecember 6, 20172018 estimated value per share was based upon the recommendation and valuation of our advisor.former external advisor, KBS Capital Advisors LLC ("KBS Capital Advisors"). We engaged Duff & Phelps to provide appraisals of our consolidated investments in real properties and our advisorKBS Capital Advisors performed valuations of our cash, restricted cash, real estate loan receivable, investment in an unconsolidated entity, other assets, mortgage debt and other liabilities. For more information relating to the JuneDecember 6, 20172018 estimated valueNAV per share and the assumptions and methodologies used by Duff & Phelps and the Advisor,KBS Capital Advisors, see ourou Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 7, 2017.December 11, 2018.
(2) The increase in the estimated value of real estate properties was due to acquisitions of real estate properties and increases in fair values of our real estate properties.
(3) The increase in the estimated value of real estate equity securities was due to acquisitions of real estate equity securities as well as unrealized gains on the securities.
(4) The increase in mortgage debt was primarily due to borrowings for future capital needs and to fund acquisitions of real estate and capital expenditures on real estate.
The increase in our estimated NAV per share from the previous estimate was primarily due to the items noted below, which reflect the significant contributors to the increase in the estimated NAV per share from $9.05$9.65 to $9.65.$10.25. The changes are not equal to the change in values of each real each asset and liability group presented in the table above due to real estate property acquisitions, debt financings and other factors, which caused the value of certain asset or liability groups to change with no impact to our fair value of equity or the overall estimated NAV per share.

As with any valuation methodology, the methodologies used are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete. Different parties using different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated NAV per share of our common stock, and this difference could be significant. The estimated NAV per share is not audited and does not represent the fair value of our assets less the fair value of our liabilities according to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), nor does it represent a liquidation value of our assets and liabilities or the price at which our shares of common stock would trade on a national securities exchange. The estimated NAV per share does not reflect a discount for the fact that we are externally managed, nor does it reflect a real estate portfolio premium/discount versus the sum of the individual property values. The estimated NAV per share also does not take into account estimated disposition costs and fees for real estate properties or debt prepayment penalties that could apply upon the prepayment of certain of our debt obligations, the impact of restrictions on the assumption of debt or swap breakage fees that may be incurred upon the termination of certain of our swaps prior to expiration. The estimated NAV per share does not take into consideration acquisition-related costs and financing costs related to future acquisitions. As of September 30, 2018,2019, we had no potentially dilutive securities outstanding that would impact the estimated NAV per share of our common stock.
Our estimated NAV per share takes into consideration any potential liability related to a subordinated participation in cash flows our advisor is entitled to upon meeting certain stockholder return thresholds in accordance with our advisory agreement. For purposes of determining the estimated NAV per share, our advisor calculated the potential liability related to this incentive fee based on a hypothetical liquidation of our assets and liabilities at their estimated fair values, after considering the impact of any potential closing costs and fees related to the disposition of real estate properties, and determined that there would be no liability related to the subordinated participation in cash flows.
Methodology
Our goal for the valuation was to arrive at a reasonable and supportable estimated NAV per share, using a process that was designed to be in compliance with the IPA Valuation Guidelines and using what we and our advisor deemed to be appropriate valuation methodologies and assumptions. The following is a summary of the valuation and appraisal methodologies, assumptions and estimates used to value our assets and liabilities:

Duff & Phelps(1) was selected by our advisor and approved by our conflicts committee and board of directors to appraise each of the Appraised Properties. Duff & Phelps is engaged in the business of appraising commercial real estate properties and is not affiliated with us or our advisor. The compensation we paid to Duff & Phelps was based on the scope of work and not on the appraised values of the Appraised Properties. The appraisals were performed in accordance with the Code of Ethics and the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, or USPAP, the real estate appraisal industry standards created by The Appraisal Foundation, as well as the requirements of the state where each real property is located. Each appraisal was reviewed, approved and signed by an individual with the professional designation of MAI (Member of the Appraisal Institute). The use of the reports is subject to the requirements of the Appraisal Institute relating to review by its duly authorized representatives.
Duff & Phelps collected all reasonably available material information that it deemed relevant in appraising the Appraised Properties. Duff & Phelps obtained property-level information from our advisor, including (i) property historical and projected operating revenues and expenses; (ii) property lease agreements; and (iii) information regarding recent or planned capital expenditures. Duff & Phelps reviewed and relied in part on the property-level information provided by our advisor and considered this information in light of its knowledge of each property’s specific market conditions.

(1) Duff & Phelps is actively engaged in the business of appraising commercial real estate properties similar to those owned by us in connection with public securities offerings, private placements, business combinations and similar transactions. We engaged Duff & Phelps to prepare appraisal reports for each of the Appraised Properties and Duff & Phelps received fees upon the delivery of such reports. In addition, we have agreed to indemnify Duff & Phelps against certain liabilities arising out of this engagement. In the twothree years prior to December 11, 2018,17, 2019, Duff & Phelps and its affiliates have provided a number of commercial real estate, appraisal, valuation and financial advisory services for our affiliates and have received fees in connection with such services. Duff & Phelps and its affiliates may from time to time in the future perform other commercial real estate, appraisal, valuation and financial advisory services for us and our affiliates in transactions related to the properties that are the subjects of the appraisals, so long as such other services do not adversely affect the independence of the applicable Duff & Phelps appraiser as certified in the applicable appraisal report.

In conducting its investigation and analyses, Duff & Phelps took into account customary and accepted financial and commercial procedures and considerations as it deemed relevant. Although Duff & Phelps reviewed information supplied or otherwise made available by us or our advisor for reasonableness, it assumed and relied upon the accuracy and completeness of all such information and of all information supplied or otherwise made available to it by any other party and did not independently verify any such information. With respect to operating or financial forecasts and other information and data provided to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with Duff & Phelps, Duff & Phelps assumed that such forecasts and other information and data were reasonably prepared in good faith on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of our management, our board of directors and/or our advisor. Duff & Phelps relied on us or our advisor to advise it promptly if any information previously provided became inaccurate or was required to be updated during the period of its review.
In performing its analyses of the Appraised Properties, Duff & Phelps made numerous other assumptions as of various points in time with respect to industry performance, general business, economic and regulatory conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond its and our control, as well as certain factual matters. For example, unless specifically informed to the contrary, Duff & Phelps assumed that we had clear and marketable title to each of the Appraised Properties, that no title defects existed, that any improvements were made in accordance with law, that no hazardous materials were present or had been present previously, that no deed restrictions existed, and that no changes to zoning ordinances or regulations governing use, density or shape were pending or being considered. Furthermore, Duff & Phelps’ analyses, opinions and conclusions were necessarily based upon market, economic, financial and other circumstances and conditions existing as of or prior to the date of the appraisals, and any material change in such circumstances and conditions may affect Duff & Phelps’ analyses and conclusions. Duff & Phelps’ appraisal reports contain other assumptions, qualifications and limitations that qualify the analyses, opinions and conclusions set forth therein. Furthermore, the prices at which the Appraised Properties may actually be sold could differ from their appraised values.
Although Duff & Phelps considered any comments to its appraisal reports received from us or our advisor, the appraised values of the Appraised Properties were determined by Duff & Phelps. The appraisal reports for the Appraised Properties are addressed solely to us to assist in the determination of the estimated NAV per share of our common stock. The appraisal reports are not addressed to the public and may not be relied upon by any other person to establish an estimated NAV per share of our common stock and do not constitute a recommendation to any person to purchase or sell any shares of our common stock. In preparing its appraisal reports, Duff & Phelps did not solicit third-party indications of interest for the Appraised Properties and did not, and was not requested to, solicit third-party indications of interest for our common stock in connection with possible purchases thereof or the acquisition of all or any part of us. While Duff & Phelps is responsible for providing appraisals of the Appraised Properties, Duff & Phelps is not responsible for, did not calculate, and did not participate in, the determination of our estimated NAV per share.
The foregoing is a summary of the standard assumptions, qualifications and limitations that generally apply to Duff & Phelps’ appraisal reports. All of the Duff & Phelps appraisal reports, including the analyses, opinions and conclusions set forth in such reports, are qualified by the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth in the respective appraisal reports.

Income-Generating Properties
As of September 30, 2018, our income-generating propertiesOctober 31, 2019, the Appraised Properties were appraised by Duff & Phelps and consisted of two hotel properties, fourthree office properties and one apartment building. Duff & Phelps appraised each of thethese income-generating properties using various methodologies including the direct capitalization approach, discounted cash flow analysis and sales comparison approach and relied primarily on 10-year discounted cash flow analyses for the final appraisal of the these properties. Duff & Phelps calculated the discounted cash flow value of each of thethese income-generating properties using property-level cash flow estimates, terminal capitalization rates and discount rates that fall within ranges it believes would be used by similar investors to value the properties, based on recent comparable market transactions adjusted for unique properties and market-specific factors.

The total appraised value of ourthese income-generating properties using the appraisal methodologies described above was $568.8$591.0 million, compared to a total cost basis of $497.6$497.9 million. This amount includes the acquisition price of $444.5$431.2 million, $38.1$52.1 million in capital expenditures, leasing commissions and tenant improvements and $15.0$14.6 million of acquisition fees and expenses.
The following table summarizes the key assumptions that Duff & Phelps used in the discounted cash flow analyses to arrive at the appraised value of ourthese income-generating properties:
Range in ValuesWeighted-Average Basis
Terminal capitalization rate4.25%4.50% to 7.50%6.22%5.99% 
Discount rate6.25%6.00% to 9.50%7.48%7.11% 
Net operating income compounded annual growth rate (1)
3.61%2.18% to 24.91%19.64%6.83%5.28% 
_____________________
(1) The net operating income compounded annual growth rates (“CAGRs”) reflect both the contractual and market rents and reimbursements (in cases where the contractual lease period is less than the valuation period of the property) net of expenses over the valuation period. The range of CAGRs shown is the constant annual rate at which the net operating income is projected to grow to reach the net operating income in the final year of the hold period for each of the properties.
While we believe that Duff & Phelps’ assumptions and inputs are reasonable, a change in these assumptions and inputs would significantly impact the appraised value of the income-generating properties and thus, our estimated NAV per share. The table below illustrates the impact on our estimated NAV per share; including an adjustment to non-controlling interest, if the terminal capitalization rates or discount rates Duff & Phelps used to appraise the income generating properties were adjusted by 25 basis points, assuming all other factors remain unchanged. Additionally, the table below illustrates the impact on our estimated NAV per share if these terminal capitalization rates or discount rates were adjusted by 5% in accordance with the IPA Valuation Guidelines, assuming all other factors remain unchanged:

Development Property
As of September 30, 2018,October 31, 2019, we had invested in a retail development project. Duff & Phelps considered various valuation methodologies including the cost approach, income capitalization approach and sales comparison approach and relied on a sales comparison approach for the final appraisal of this investment. Duff & Phelps gathered data on reasonably substitutable properties and adjusted for unique property and market-specific factors to arrive at a market value. The appraised value of our retail development project using the appraisal methodology described above was $48.7$47.2 million, compared to a total cost basis, including acquisition fees and expenses, capital expenditures and other capitalized costs through September 30, 2018October 31, 2019 of $60.9$56.0 million.
Finally, a 1% increase in the appraised value of the Appraised Properties would result in an increase of $0.18$0.17 to our estimated NAV per share and a 1% decrease in the appraised value of the Appraised Properties would result in a decrease of $0.18 to our estimated NAV per share, assuming all other factors remain unchanged.
Real Estate Equity Securities
As of September 30, 2018,2019, we owned an investment in real estate equity securities. The estimated value of our real estate equity securities is equal to the GAAP fair value disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2018,2019, which also equals the book value of the real estate equity securities in accordance with GAAP. As of September 30, 2018,2019, we owned 852,7971,160,591 shares of Franklin Street Properties Corp. The fair values of these real estate equity securities were based on quoted prices in an active market on a major stock exchange. As of September 30, 2018,2019, the fair value and carrying value of our real estate equity securities was $6.8$9.8 million.

Investment in Unconsolidated Entity
As of September 30, 2018,2019, we had originated a participating loan facility in an amount up to €2.6 million ($3.0 million as of September 30, 2018)2019). As September 30, 2018,2019, we had funded the participating loan facility €2.1 million ($2.4 million as of September 30, 2018)2019). The proceeds were used to fund a 5% general partner interest in a joint venture acquiring a portfolio of light industrial properties located throughout France. Under the terms of the participating loan facility, we participate in the expected residual profits of the portfolio and the terms are structured in a manner such that the risks and rewards of the arrangement are similar to those associated with an investment in a real estate joint venture. Accordingly, the participating loan facility is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The estimated value of our investment in this participating loan facility was estimated by our advisor based on actual and contractual sales prices forits estimate of the properties and the resulting distributions expectedfinal distribution to be received by us in the next one to two quarters, pursuant to the terms of the participating loan facility. The fair value and carrying value of our investment in the participating loan facility is $5.2$0.5 million and $2.8$0.5 million, respectively.
Non-controlling Interest
We have an ownership interest in five consolidated joint ventures as of September 30, 2018.2019. As we consolidate these joint ventures, the entire amount of the underlying assets and liabilities of each joint venture is reflected at fair value in the corresponding line items of the estimated NAV per share determination. As a result,Given this and the October 31, 2019 appraisal date for the real estate, we also must consider the fair value of any non-controlling interest liability as of September 30, 2018.October 31, 2019. In determining this fair value, we considered the various profit participation thresholds in each of the joint ventures that must be measured in determining the fair value of our non-controlling interest liability. We used the real estate appraisals provided by Duff & Phelps and calculated the amount that the joint venture partners would receive in a hypothetical liquidation of the underlying real estate properties (including all current assets and liabilities) at their current appraised values and the payoff of any related debt at its fair value, based on the profit participation thresholds contained in the joint venture agreements. The estimated payment to the joint venture partners was then reflected as the non-controlling interest liability in our determination of our estimated NAV per share.
Notes Payable
The estimated values of ourthe Company’s notes payable are equal to the GAAP fair values disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2018,2019, but do not equal the book value of the loans in accordance with GAAP. Our advisor estimated the values of our notes payable using a discounted cash flow analysis. The discounted cash flow analysis was based on projected cash flow over the remaining loan terms, including extensions we expect to exercise, and management’s estimates of current market interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value ratio and type of collateral.
As of September 30, 2018,2019, the GAAP fair value and the carrying value of our notes payable were $331.3$351.8 million and $326.4$347.5 million, respectively. The weighted-average discount rate applied to the future estimated debt payments, was approximately 5.14%4.56%. Our notes payable have a weighted-average remaining term of 1.9 years.
The table below illustrates the impact on our estimated NAV per share if the discount rates our advisor used to value our notes payable were adjusted by 25 basis points, assuming all other factors remain unchanged. Additionally, the table below illustrates the impact on our estimated NAV per share if these discount rates were adjusted by 5% in accordance with the IPA Valuation Guidelines, assuming all other factors remain unchanged:

Other Assets and Liabilities
The carrying values of a majority of our other assets and liabilities are considered to equal their fair value due to their short maturities or liquid nature. Certain balances, such as straight-line rent receivables, lease intangible assets and liabilities, deferred financing costs, unamortized lease commissions and unamortized lease incentives, have been eliminated for the purpose of the valuation due to the fact that the value of those balances was already considered in the valuation of the related asset or liability. Our advisor has also excluded redeemable common stock as temporary equity does not represent a true liability to us and the shares that this amount represents are included in our total outstanding shares of common stock for purposes of determining our estimated NAV per share.

Limitations of Estimated NAV per Share
As mentioned above, we are providing this estimated NAV per share to assist broker dealers that participated in our initial public offering in meeting their customer account statement reporting obligations. This valuation was performed in accordance with the provisions of the IPA Valuation Guidelines. As with any valuation methodology, the methodologies used are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete. Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated NAV per share of our common stock and this difference could be significant. The estimated NAV per share is not audited and does not represent the fair value of our assets less the fair value of our liabilities according to GAAP.
Accordingly, with respect to our estimated NAV per share, we can give no assurance that:
a stockholder would be able to resell his or her shares at our estimated NAV per share;
a stockholder would ultimately realize distributions per share equal to our estimated NAV per share upon liquidation of our assets and settlement of our liabilities or a sale of our company;
our shares of common stock would trade at our estimated NAV per share on a national securities exchange;
a third party would offer our estimated NAV per share in an arm’s-length transaction to purchase all or substantially all of our shares of common stock;
another independent third-party appraiser or third-party valuation firm would agree with our estimated NAV per share; or
the methodology used to determine our estimated NAV per share would be acceptable to FINRA or for compliance with ERISA reporting requirements.
Further, ourthe estimated NAV per share is based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2018.2019, after giving effect to the Adjustments. As of September 30, 2018,2019, there were 17,963,19917,934,013 and 12,100,73612,255,327 shares of Class A and Class T common stock issued and outstanding, respectively. We did not make any adjustments to our estimated NAV subsequent to September 30, 2018, including adjustments relating to the following, among others: (i) the issuance of common stock and the payment of related offering costs; (ii) net operating income earned and distributions declared; and (iii) the redemption of shares. The value of our shares will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to the capital raised during our offering stage, future investments, the performance of individual assets in our portfolio, the management of those assets and in response to the real estate and finance markets. OurThe estimated NAV per share does not reflect a discount for the fact that we are externally managed, nor does it reflect a real estate portfolio premium/discount versus the sum of the individual property values. OurThe estimated NAV per share does not take into account estimated disposition costs and fees for real estate properties that are not held for sale or under contract for sale, debt prepayment penalties that could apply upon the prepayment of certain of our debt obligations or the impact of restrictions on the assumption of debt or swap breakage fees that may be incurred upon the termination of certain of our swaps prior to expiration.debt.

Distribution Information
We declare stock dividends and cash distributions when our board of directors determines we have sufficient cash flow from operations, investment activities and/or strategic financings. This policy reflects our focus on acquiring an investment portfolio with a total return profile that is composed of a combination of assets that have potential for long-term appreciation and/or stabilized cash flow from operations upon lease-up or other enhancement.


56

Table of Contents
We currently expect our board of directors to authorize, declare and pay cash distributions on a monthly basis. We expect that we will fund these cash distributions from dividend, rental and other income on our investments. We may also utilize strategic refinancings to fund cash distributions for investments that have appreciated in value after our acquisition. Generally, our distribution policy is not to pay cash distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, investment activities and strategic financings. However, we may fund cash distributions from any source and there are no limits to the amount of distributions that we may pay from any source, including proceeds from the issuance of securities in the future, other third party borrowings, advances from our advisor or sponsors or from our advisor’s deferral of its fees under the advisory agreement. Distributions paid from sources other than current or accumulated earnings and profits may constitute a return of capital. From time to time, we may generate taxable income greater than our taxable income for financial reporting purposes, or our taxable income may be greater than our cash flow available for distribution to stockholders. In these situations we may pay distributions in excess of our cash flow from operations, investment activities and strategic financings to satisfy the REIT distribution requirement described above. In such an event, we would look first to other third party borrowings to fund these distributions.
As a REIT, we will generally have to hold our assets for two years in order to meet the safe harbor to avoid a 100% prohibited transactions tax, unless such assets are held through a TRS or other taxable corporation. At such time as we have assets that we have held for at least two years, we anticipate that we may authorize and declare distributions based on gains on asset sales, to the extent we close on the sale of one or more assets and the board of directors does not determine to reinvest the proceeds of such sales.
To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must make aggregate annual distributions to our stockholders of at least  90% of our REIT taxable income (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). If we meet the REIT qualification requirements, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on the income that we distribute to our stockholders each year. In general, we anticipate making distributions to our stockholders of at least 100% of our REIT taxable income so that none of our income is subject to federal income tax. Our board of directors may authorize distributions in excess of those required for us to maintain REIT status depending on our financial condition and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.
We have not established a minimum distribution level, and our charter does not require that we pay distributions to our stockholders. Distributions declared during 20182019 and 2017,2018, aggregated by quarter, are as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

(1) Amount declared per share outstanding includes one-time stock dividends, quarterly dividends and monthly dividends and assumes each share was issued and outstanding for the entire periods presented. Stock dividends are issued in the same class of shares as the shares for which such stockholder received the stock dividend.
Stock dividends are non-taxable to stockholders at the time of issuance. During our offering stage and through November 2018, our board of directors declared stock dividends on a set monthly basis based on monthly record dates. We currently do not expect our board of directors to declare additional monthly stock dividends.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we sold the following equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933. On February 13, 2018, we issued 10,935 of Class A shares of common stock for $9.15 per share (or an aggregate purchase price of $0.1 million) to a business associate of Keith D. Hall and Peter McMillan III. The shares were issued in private transactions exempt from the registration requirements pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. We did not pay selling commissions or dealer manager fees with respect to this sale. The purchase price reflects a $0.85 discount to the $10.00 per share offering price in our now-terminated initial public offering, reflecting that no selling commissions or dealer manager fees were paid on the sale.
Share Redemption Program
We have adopted a share redemption program that may enable stockholders to sell their shares to us in limited circumstances.
Pursuant to the share redemption program there are several limitations on our ability to redeem shares:
Unless the shares are being redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined under the share redemption program), we may not redeem shares until the stockholder has held the shares for one year.
During each calendar year, the share redemption program limits the number of shares we may redeem to those that we could purchase with the amount of the net proceeds from the issuance of shares under the dividend reinvestment plan during the prior calendar year. In 2019,2020, the share redemption program also provides that in any calendar year, the last $0.5 million of net proceeds from the dividend reinvestment plan during the prior year is reserved exclusively for shares redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence” with any excess funds being available to redeem shares not requested in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence” during the December redemption date in the current year. We may, however, increase or decrease the funding available for the redemption of shares pursuant to the program upon ten business days’ notice to our stockholders.
During any calendar year, we may redeem no more than 5% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year.
We have no obligation to redeem shares if the redemption would violate the restrictions on distributions under Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency.

Pursuant to our share redemption program, redemptions made in connection with a stockholder’s death, qualifying disability, or determination of incompetence are made at a price per share equal to the most recent NAV per share as of the applicable redemption date. The price at which we redeem all other shares eligible for redemption is as follows:
For those shares held by the redeeming stockholder for at least one year, 92.5% of our most recent estimated NAV per share as of the applicable redemption date;

For those shares held by the redeeming stockholder for at least two years, 95.0% of our most recent estimated NAV per share as of the applicable redemption date;
For those shares held by the redeeming stockholder for at least three years, 97.5% of our most recent estimated NAV per share as of the applicable redemption date; and
For those shares held by the redeeming stockholder for at least four years, 100% of our most recent estimated NAV per share as of the applicable redemption date.
For purposes of determining the time period a redeeming stockholder has held each share, the time period begins as of the date the stockholder acquired the share; provided, that shares purchased by the redeeming stockholder pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan and shares received as a stock dividend will be deemed to have been acquired on the same date as the initial share to which the dividend reinvestment plan shares or stock dividend shares relate. The date of the share’s original issuance by us is not determinative. In addition, as described above, the shares owned by a stockholder may be redeemed at different prices depending on how long the stockholder has held each share submitted for redemption.
We expect to update our estimated NAV per share annually.
The terms of our share redemption program with respect to redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death, qualifying disability or determination of incompetence are as follows:
There is no one-year holding requirement;
Effective in January 2019, funds from our dividend reinvestment plan in an amount of $500,000 are reserved for redemption (during 2018, additional funds in an amount up to $500,000 were available for redemptions); and
The redemption price is the estimated NAV of the shares, as determined by our board of directors.
Upon a transfer of shares any pending redemption requests with respect to such transferred shares will be canceled as of the date we accept the transfer. Stockholders wishing to continue to have a redemption request related to any transferred shares considered by us must resubmit their redemption request.
Our board may amend, suspend or terminate the share redemption program upon 10 business days’ notice to stockholders. We also may increase or decrease the funding available for the redemption of shares pursuant to the share redemption program upon 10 business days’ notice to stockholders.
Effective beginning with the month of February 2020, we have suspended (a) redemptions requested under the share redemption program in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence”, until we and POSOR I file with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-4 containing a Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus for the proposed Merger, and (b) all other redemptions under the share redemption program until after the Merger closes.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
ITEM 7.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the “Selected Financial Data” above and our accompanying consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Also, see “Forward-Looking Statements” preceding Part I of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Overview
We were formed on February 6, 2013 as a Maryland corporation and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with the taxable year ending December 31, 2014. On July 3, 2013, we commenced a private placement offering exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to offer a maximum of $105,000,000 of shares of common stock for sale to certain accredited investors, of which $5,000,000 of shares were offered pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan. We ceased offering shares in our private offering on August 11, 2014. KBS Capital Markets Group LLC, an affiliate of our former advisor, served as the dealer manager of the offering pursuant to a dealer manager agreement and was responsible for marketing our shares in the offering.
On November 14, 2013, we filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register for sale to the public a maximum of 180,000,000 shares of common stock, of which 80,000,000 shares were to be offered pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan. The SEC declared our registration statement effective on August 12, 2014 and we retained KBS Capital Markets Group LLC to serve as the dealer manager of the initial public offering pursuant to a dealer manager agreement. On February 11, 2016, we filed an amended registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to offer a second class of common stock designated as Class T shares and to designate our initially offered and outstanding common stock as Class A shares. Pursuant to the amended registration statement, we were offering to sell any combination of Class A and Class T shares in our primary offering and dividend reinvestment plan offering but in no event could we sell more than 180,000,000 of shares of our common stock pursuant to the offering. We commenced offering our Class T shares of our common stock for sale to the public on February 17, 2016. The dealer manager was responsible for marketing our shares in the initial public offering. We ceased offering shares of common stock in our initial public primary offering on July 31, 2018 and terminated our initial public primary offering on September 28, 2018. We continue to offer shares of common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan. In some states, we will need to renew the registration statement annually or file a new registration statement to continue our dividend reinvestment plan offering. We may terminate our dividend reinvestment plan offering at any time.
We have used substantially all of the net proceeds from our offerings to invest in and manage a portfolio of opportunistic real estate, real estate-related loans, real estate equity securities and other real estate-related investments located in the United States and Europe. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we had invested in two hotel properties, fourthree office properties, one apartment building, an investmenttwo investments in an unconsolidated entityentities and an investment in real estate equity securities. Additionally, as of December 31, 2018,2019, we had entered into a consolidated joint venture to develop one office/retail property.
We sold 11,977,758 and 11,537,701 shares of Class A and Class T common stock, respectively, for aggregate gross offering proceeds of $228.6 million in our initial public primary offering. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we had sold 602,462723,641 and 225,137333,841 shares of Class A and Class T common stock, respectively, under our dividend reinvestment plan for aggregate gross offering proceeds of $7.6$9.8 million. Also as of December 31, 2018,2019, we had redeemed 443,543718,962 and 63,926107,945 shares of Class A and Class T common stock, respectively, for $4.4$7.4 million.
We sold 3,619,851 shares of Class A common stock for gross offering proceeds of $32.2 million in our private offering. Additionally, on each of April 2, 2014 and July 31, 2014, we issued 120,106 shares of Class A common stock to an entity affiliated with two of our officers and affiliated directors for $1.0 million in separate private transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. On July 14, 2017 and February 13, 2018, we issued 214,175 shares and 10,935 shares, respectively, of Class A common stock to a business associate of two of our officers and affiliated directors for $2.0 million and $0.1 million, respectively, in a separate private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

We have no employees and KBS Capital Advisors LLC (“KBS Capital Advisors”) hashad served as our external advisor since commencement of the private offering. On October 31, 2019, KBS Capital Advisors ceased to serve as our advisor or have any advisory responsibility to us immediately following the filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2019 with the SEC. On November 1, 2019, we entered into a new advisory agreement with Pacific Oak Capital Advisors, LLC (“Pacific Oak Capital Advisors”). The new advisory agreement is effective as of November 1, 2019 through November 1, 2020; however we may terminate the advisory agreement without cause or penalty upon providing 30 days’ written notice and Pacific Oak Capital Advisors may terminate the advisory agreement without cause or penalty upon providing 90 days’ written notice. The terms of the advisory agreement are consistent with those of the advisory agreement that was previously in effect with KBS Capital Advisor. As our advisor, KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors manages our day-to-day operations and managesmanaged our portfolio of real estate properties and real estate-related investments. KBSPacific Oak Capital Advisors also provides asset-management, marketing, investor-relations and other administrative services on our behalf.
On February 19, 2020, we, Pacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. (“POSOR I”), and Pacific Oak SOR II, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of POSOR I (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, we will merge with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub surviving the Merger (the “Surviving Entity”), such that following the Merger, the Surviving Entity will continue as an indirect subsidiary of POSOR I. In accordance with the applicable provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law, the separate existence of our company shall cease. At the effective time of the Merger and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, each issued and outstanding share of our common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.9643 shares of POSOR I common stock. The combined company after the Merger will retain the name “Pacific Oak Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc.” The Merger is intended to qualify as a “reorganization” under, and within the meaning of, Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. See “Proposed Merger” in Item Part I, Item 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information.
Market Outlook - Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets
Volatility in global financial markets and changing political environments can cause fluctuations  in the performance of the U.S. commercial real estate markets.  Possible future declines in rental rates, slower or potentially negative net absorption of leased space and expectations of future rental concessions, including free rent to renew tenants early, to retain tenants who are up for renewal or to attract new tenants, may result in decreases in cash flows from investment properties. Increases in the cost of financing due to higher interest rates  may cause difficulty in refinancing debt obligations prior to or at maturity or at terms as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness.  Further, increases in interest rates would increase the amount of our debt payments on our variable rate debt to the extent the interest rates on such debt are not limited by interest rate caps. Market conditions can change quickly, potentially negatively impacting the value of real estate investments. Management continuously reviews our investment and debt financing strategies to optimize our portfolio and the cost of our debt exposure. The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 (more commonly known as the Coronavirus) has significantly disrupted economic markets and impacted commercial activity worldwide, including the US, and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal demand for funds during the short and long-term is and will be for the payment of operating expenses, capital expenditures and general and administrative expenses; payments under debt obligations; redemptions of common stock; capital commitments and development expenses under our joint venture agreements; and payments of distributions to stockholders.
To date, we have had fourfive primary sources of capital for meeting our cash requirements:
Proceeds from the primary portion of our initial public offering;
Proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan;
Proceeds from the sale of real estate and the repayment of a real estate loan receivable;
Debt financings; and
Cash flow generated by our real estate investments.
We had sold 11,977,758 and 11,537,701 shares of Class A and Class T common stock, respectively, for aggregate gross offering proceeds of $228.6 million in our initial public offering. Additionally, we sold 3,619,851 shares of common stock in our private offering for gross offering proceeds of $32.2 million. We ceased offering shares of common stock in our initial public primary offering on July 31, 2018 and terminated our initial public primary offering on September 28, 2018.
To date, we have invested a significant amount of the proceeds from the primary public offering in real estate and do not anticipate making additional real estate acquisitions due to the termination of the primary portion of our initial public offering on July 31, 2018. We intend to use our cash on hand, cash flow generated by our real estate operations and proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan as our primary sources of immediate and long-term liquidity.

As of December 31, 2018,2019, we had invested in two hotel properties, fourthree office properties, one apartment building, an investmenttwo investments in an unconsolidated entityentities and an investment in real estate equity securities. Additionally, as of December 31, 2018,2019, we had entered into a consolidated joint venture to develop one office/retail property.
Our office and apartment properties generate cash flow in the form of rental revenues and tenant reimbursements, which are reduced by operating expenditures, capital expenditures, debt service payments, the payment of asset management fees and corporate general and administrative expenses. Cash flow from operations from office and apartment properties is primarily dependent upon the occupancy level of our properties, the net effective rental rates on our leases, the collectibility of rent and operating recoveries from our tenants and how well we manage our expenditures. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we owned fourthree office properties that were 70%68% occupied and one apartment property that was 95%93% occupied.
Our hotel properties generate cash flow in the form of room, food, beverage and convention services, campground and other revenues, which are reduced by hotel expenses, capital expenditures, debt service payments, the payment of asset management fees and corporate general and administrative expenses. Cash flow from operations from our hotel properties are primarily dependent upon the occupancy levels of our hotels, the average daily rates and how well we manage our expenditures. The following table provides summary information regarding our hotel properties as offor the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018:

Investments in real estate equity securities generate cash flow in the form of dividend income, which is reduced by asset management fees. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we had an investment in real estate equity securities outstanding with a total book value of $7.2$9.9 million.
As of December 31, 2018,2019, we had mortgage debt obligations in the aggregate principal amount of $328.8$329.6 million, with a weighted-average remaining term of 1.82.0 years. As of December 31, 2018,2019, an aggregate amount of $31.8$47.2 million was available under our mortgage loans for future disbursements to be used for capital improvement costs, tenant improvement costs, leasing commissions and expenses and operating/interest shortfall, subject to certain terms and conditions contained in the loan documents.
We expect to use our capital resources to make certain payments to our advisor in connection with the management of our assets and costs incurred by our advisor in providing services to us. Our currently effective advisory agreement expires August 12, 2019November 1, 2020 and may be renewed for an unlimited number of successive one-year periods upon the mutual consent of KBS Capital Advisorsour advisor and our conflicts committee.

Among the fees payable to our advisor is an asset management fee. We pay our advisor a monthly fee equal to the lesser of one-twelfth of (i) 1.0% of the cost of our investments and (ii) 2.0% of the sum of the cost of our investments, less any debt secured by or attributable to the investments. The cost of the real property investments is calculated as the amount paid or allocated to acquire the real property, including the cost of any subsequent development, construction or improvements to the property and including fees and expenses related thereto (but excluding acquisition fees paid or payable our advisor). The cost of the loans and any investments other than real property is calculated as the lesser of (x) the amount actually paid or allocated to acquire or fund the loan or other investment, including fees and expenses related thereto (but excluding acquisition fees paid or payable to our advisor) and (y) the outstanding principal amount of such loan or other investment, including fees and expenses related to the acquisition or funding of such investment (but excluding acquisition fees paid or payable to our advisor) as of the time of calculation. In the case of investments made through joint ventures, the asset management fee is determined based on our proportionate share of the underlying investment.
We elected to be taxed and to operate as a REIT beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2014. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we will be required to make aggregate annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gain). Our board of directors may authorize distributions in excess of those required for us to maintain REIT status depending on our financial condition and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant. We have not established a minimum distribution level.

Under our charter, we are required to limit our total operating expenses to the greater of 2% of our average invested assets or 25% of our net income for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters, as these terms are defined in our charter, unless the conflicts committee has determined that such excess expenses were justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors. Operating expense reimbursementsTotal operating expenses for the four fiscal quarters ended December 31, 20182019 did not exceed the charter imposed limitation.

We commenced operations on September 4, 2014 in connection with our first investment. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we had invested in two hotel properties, fourthree office properties, one apartment building, an investmenttwo investments in an unconsolidated entityentities and an investment in real estate equity securities. Additionally, as of December 31, 2018,2019, we had entered into a consolidated joint venture to develop one office/retail property. During the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, net cash provided byused in operating activities was $4.6$0.1 million. We expect that our cash flows from operating activities will generally increase in future years as a result of leasing additional space that is currently unoccupied and owning real estate equity securities acquired during 20182019 for an entire period.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used inprovided by investing activities was $20.0$5.4 million for the year ended December 31, 20182019 and primarily consisted of the following:
$9.217.7 million investment inof disposition of real estate equity securities;estate;
$8.914.1 million of improvements to real estate;
$5.75.1 million of payments for a construction project;distribution of capital from unconsolidated joint venture; and
$3.52.9 million of cash receivedinvestment in connection with the real estate loan receivable payoff; andan unconsolidated joint venture.
$0.2 million of proceeds from insurance claims.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash provided byused in financing activities was $7.2$8.7 million for the year ended December 31, 20182019 and primarily consisted of the following:
$15.5 million of net cash provided by offering proceeds related to our initial public offering, net of payments of commissions, dealer manager fees and stockholder servicing fees of $1.6 million;
$3.52.4 million of net cash used in debt and other financings as a result of principal payments on notes payable of $5.5$179.4 million and payments of deferred financing costs of $0.3$3.2 million, partially offset by proceeds from notes payable of $2.3$180.2 million;
$2.43.0 million of cash used for redemptions of common stock;
$1.9 million of distributions to noncontrolling interest;
$1.4 million of net cash distributions, after giving effect to distributions reinvested by stockholders of $3.0$2.2 million;
$1.2 million of payments of other offering costs;
$1.40.2 million of noncontrolling interest contributions; and
$0.5 million of distributions to noncontrolling interest; and
$0.2 million of principal payments on capital lease obligations.

In order to execute our investment strategy, we utilize secured debt and we may, to the extent available, utilize unsecured debt, to finance a portion of our investment portfolio. Management remains vigilant in monitoring the risks inherent with the use of debt in our portfolio and is taking actions to ensure that these risks, including refinancing and interest risks, are properly balanced with the benefit of using leverage. We expect our debt financing will be 60% or less of the cost of our tangible assets (before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves). There is no limitation on the amount we may borrow for any single investment. Our charter limits our total liabilities such that our total liabilities may not exceed 75% of the cost of our tangible assets (before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves); however, we may exceed that limit if a majority of the Conflicts Committee approves each borrowing in excess of our charter limitation and we disclose such borrowing to our common stockholders in our next quarterly report with an explanation from the conflicts committee of the justification for the excess borrowing. As of December 31, 2018,2019, our borrowings and other liabilities were approximately 60% of the cost (before depreciation and other noncash reserves) and book value (before depreciation) of our tangible assets.

Results of Operations
Overview
As of December 31, 2017 and 2018,2019, we had invested in two hotel properties, fourthree office properties, one apartment building, and an investment in an unconsolidated entity. Additionally, as of December 31, 2017real estate equity securities and 2018, we had entered into a consolidated joint venture to develop one office/retail property. As of December 31, 2017, we hadWe also invested in two investments in unconsolidated entities, with one first mortgage loan, which was repaid in full on January 12, 2018. Duringinvestment acquired during the year ended December 31, 2018, we invested in an investment in real estate equity securities.2019. We funded the acquisitions of these investments with proceeds from our terminated offerings and debt financing. Our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 20182019 are not indicative of those in future periods as we expect that our revenue and expenses related to our portfolio will increase in future periods as the occupancies at our properties stabilize as discussed below. Our investment objectives include acquiring properties with significant possibilities for short-term capital appreciation, such as non-stabilized properties, properties with moderate vacancies or near-term lease rollovers, poorly managed and positioned properties, properties owned by distressed sellers and built-to-suit properties. As of December 31, 2018,2019, the occupancy in our properties has not been stabilized. However, due to the amount of near-term lease expirations, we do not put significant emphasis on quarterly changes in occupancy (positive or negative) in the short run. Our underwriting and valuations are generally more sensitive to “terminal values” that may be realized upon the disposition of the assets in the portfolio and less sensitive to ongoing cash flows generated by the portfolio in the years leading up to an eventual sale. There are no guarantees that occupancies of our assets will increase, or that we will recognize a gain on the sale of our assets. In general, we expect that our income and expenses related to our portfolio will increase in future periods as a result of leasing additional space and improving our properties but decrease due to disposition activity.

As of December 31, 2018, we had invested in two hotel properties, four office properties, one apartment building, an investment in real estate equity securities and we had entered into a consolidated joint venture to develop one office/retail property. We also invested in an investment in an unconsolidated entity. We funded the acquisitions of these investments with proceeds from our terminated offerings and debt financing.

FFO represents net income, excluding gains and losses from sales of operating real estate assets (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates), impairment losses on real estate assets, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. In addition, we elected the option to exclude mark-to-market changes in value recognized on equity securities in the calculation of FFO. We believe FFO facilitates comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other REITs. However, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to other REITs that do not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do. Our management believes that historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. As a result, we believe that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our competitors and provides a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities.
Changes in accounting rules have resulted in a substantial increase in the number of non-operating and non-cash items included in the calculation of FFO. As a result, our management also uses modified funds from operations (“MFFO”) as an indicator of our ongoing performance as well as our dividend sustainability. MFFO excludes from FFO: acquisition fees and expenses (to the extent that such fees and expenses have been recorded as operating expenses); adjustments related to contingent purchase price obligations; amounts relating to straight-line rents and amortization of above- and below-market intangible lease assets and liabilities; accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; amortization of closing costs relating to debt investments; impairments of real estate-related investments; mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; and gains or losses included in net income for the extinguishment or sale of debt or hedges. We compute MFFO in accordance with the definition of MFFO included in the practice guideline issued by the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives (“IPA”) in November 2010 as interpreted by management. Our computation of MFFO may not be comparable to other REITs that do not compute MFFO in accordance with the current IPA definition or that interpret the current IPA definition differently than we do.
In addition, our management uses an adjusted MFFO (“Adjusted MFFO”) as an indicator of our ongoing performance as well as our dividend sustainability. Adjusted MFFO provides adjustments to reduce MFFO related to operating expenses that are capitalized with respect to certain of our investments in undeveloped land. 

We believe that MFFO and Adjusted MFFO are helpful as measures of ongoing operating performance because they exclude costs that management considers more reflective of investing activities and other non-operating items included in FFO.  Management believes that excluding acquisition costs (to the extent that such costs have been recorded as operating expenses) from MFFO and Adjusted MFFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with management’s analysis of the operating performance of the portfolio over time, including periods after our acquisition stage.  MFFO and Adjusted MFFO also exclude non-cash items such as straight-line rental revenue. Additionally, we believe that MFFO and Adjusted MFFO provide investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance indicators and analysis used by management, in addition to net income and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, to evaluate the sustainability of our operating performance. MFFO provides comparability in evaluating the operating performance of our portfolio with other non-traded REITs which typically have limited lives with short and defined acquisition periods and targeted exit strategies. MFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by non-traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes.
FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO are non-GAAP financial measures and do not represent net income as defined by GAAP. Net income as defined by GAAP is the most relevant measure in determining our operating performance because FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO include adjustments that investors may deem subjective, such as adding back expenses such as depreciation and amortization and the other items described above. Accordingly, FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indicator of our current and historical operating performance. In addition, FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO do not represent cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an indication of our liquidity. We believe FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO, in addition to net income and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, are meaningful supplemental performance measures.

Although MFFO includes other adjustments, the exclusion of straight-line rent, the amortization of above- and below-market leases acquisition fees and expenses and mark-to-market adjustments included in net income are the most significant adjustments for the periods presented. We have excluded these items based on the following economic considerations:
Adjustments for straight-line rent. These are adjustments to rental revenue as required by GAAP to recognize contractual lease payments on a straight-line basis over the life of the respective lease. We have excluded these adjustments in our calculation of MFFO to more appropriately reflect the current economic impact of our in-place leases, while also providing investors with a useful supplemental metric that addresses core operating performance by removing rent we expect to receive in a future period or rent that was received in a prior period;
Amortization of above- and below-market leases. Similar to depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and lease related costs that are excluded from FFO, GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of intangible lease assets and liabilities diminishes predictably over time and requires that these charges be recognized currently in revenue. Since market lease rates in the aggregate have historically risen or fallen with local market conditions, management believes that by excluding these charges, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized economics of the real estate;
and
Acquisition fees and expenses. Prior to our early adoption of ASU No. 2017-01 on January 1, 2017, acquisition fees and expenses related to the acquisition of real estate were generally expensed. Although these amounts reduce net income, we exclude them from MFFO to more appropriately present the ongoing operating performance of our real estate investments on a comparative basis. Additionally, acquisition fees and expenses have been funded from the proceeds from our offerings and debt financings and not from our operations. We believe this exclusion is useful to investors as it allows investors to more accurately evaluate the sustainability of our operating performance; and
Mark to Market adjustments included in net income. These are fair value adjustments to derivative instruments. We have excluded these adjustments in our calculation of MFFO to more appropriately reflect core operating performance.
Adjusted MFFO includes adjustments to reduce MFFO related to real estate taxes, property insurance and financing costs which are capitalized with respect to certain renovation projects. We have included adjustments for the costs incurred necessary to bring these investments to their intended use, as these costs are recurring operating costs that are capitalized in accordance with GAAP and not reflected in our net income (loss), FFO and MFFO.   

Our calculation of FFO, which we believe is consistent with the calculation of FFO as defined by NAREIT, is presented in the following table, along with our calculations of MFFO and Adjusted MFFO, for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 2017 and 20162017 (in thousands). No conclusions or comparisons should be made from the presentation of these periods.

FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO may also be used to fund all or a portion of certain capitalizable items that are excluded from FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO, such as tenant improvements, building improvements and deferred leasing costs. We expect FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO to improve in future periods to the extent that we continue to lease up vacant space and acquire additional assets. We expect FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO to increase as a result of stabilizing occupancies at our properties.
Organization and Offering Costs
Our organization and offering costs (other than selling commissions, dealer manager fees and the stockholder servicing fee) were paid by our advisor, the dealer manager or their affiliates on our behalf or paid directly by us. These offering costs include all expenses incurred in connection with our offerings. Organization costs include all expenses incurred in connection with our formation, including but not limited to legal fees and other costs to incorporate.
We recorded $1.0 million of offering costs (other than selling commissions and dealer manager fees) related to our private offering, all of which were initially paid by our advisor or its affiliates on our behalf and subsequently reimbursed by us.In addition, we paid $1.9 million in selling commissions and dealer manager fees related to our private offering.

During our initial public offering, pursuant to the advisory agreement and dealer manager agreement, we were obligated to reimburse our advisor, the dealer manager or their affiliates, as applicable, for organization and other offering costs paid by them on behalf of us, provided that no reimbursements made by us to our advisor or the dealer manager could cause total organization and offering expenses incurred by us in connection with our initial public offering (including selling commissions, dealer manager fees and the stockholder servicing fees) to exceed 15% of the aggregate gross proceeds from our initial public offering as of the date of reimbursement. In addition, our advisor and its affiliates reimbursed us to the extent that the organization and other offering expenses (which exclude selling commissions, dealer manager fees and stockholder servicing fees) paid directly or reimbursed by us in connection with the primary portion of our initial public offering, regardless of when incurred, exceeded 1.0% of gross offering proceeds from the primary portion of our initial public offering. Our advisor and its affiliates are responsible for any organization and other offering expenses related to the primary portion of our initial public offering to the extent they exceed 1.0% of gross proceeds from the primary portion of the public offering as of the termination of the primary portion of our initial public offering.
Through December 31, 2018,2019, our advisor and its affiliates had incurred organization and other offering costs (which exclude selling commissions dealer manager fees and stockholder servicing fees) on our behalf in connection with our initial public offering of approximately $11.4 million. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we had recorded $14.5$16.4 million in selling commissions and dealer manager fees and $1.7 million of stockholder servicing fees. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we had recorded $2.3$2.8 million of other organization and offering expenses, which amounts represent our maximum liability for organization and other offering costs as of December 31, 20182019 based on the 1.0% limitation described above.
Distributions
To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must make aggregate annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). If we meet the REIT qualification requirements, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on the income that we distribute to our stockholders each year. In general, we anticipate making distributions to our stockholders of at least 100% of our REIT taxable income so that none of our income is subject to federal income tax. Our board of directors may authorize distributions in excess of those required for us to maintain REIT status depending on our financial condition and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.

(2) Assumes share was issued and outstanding each day that was a record date for distributions during the period presented.
(3) Distributions are paid on a monthly basis. Distributions for all record dates of a given month are paid on or about the first business day of the following month.
For the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, we paid aggregate distributions of $4.9$3.6 million, including $1.9$1.4 million distributions paid in cash and $3.0$2.2 million of distributions reinvested through our dividend reinvestment plan. Our net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 20182019 was $23.5$7.5 million and cash flow provided byused in operations was $4.6$0.1 million. We funded our total distributions paid, which includes net cash distributions and dividends reinvested by stockholders, with $3.8 million of cash flow from current operating activities and $1.1$3.6 million of prior period cash flow from operating activities in excess of distributions paid. For purposes of determining the source of our distributions paid, we assume first that we use cash flow from operating activities from the relevant or prior periods to fund distribution payments.

To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operating activities, we will have less funds available, the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced and subsequent investors will experience dilution.
In addition, from January 1, 2018 through November 30, 2018, our board of directors declared stock dividends for each month based on a single record date at the end of each month in an amount that would equal a 2% annualized stock dividend per share of common stock if paid each month for a year. Stock dividends are issued in the same class of shares as the shares for which such stockholder received the stock dividend.
Going forward we expect our board of directors to continue to authorize and declare monthly cash distributions. Cash distributions will be determined by our board of directors based on our financial condition and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant. Our board of directors has not pre-established a percentage rate of return for cash distributions to stockholders. We have not established a minimum distribution level, and our charter does not require that we make distributions to our stockholders.
We expect that we will fund these cash distributions from rental and other income on our real property investments and dividend income from real estate equity securities. We may also utilize strategic refinancings to fund cash distributions for investments that have appreciated in value after our acquisition. Generally, our distribution policy is not to pay cash distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, investment activities and strategic financings. However, we may fund cash distributions from any source and there are no limits to the amount of distributions that we may pay from any source, including proceeds from our public offering or the proceeds from the issuance of securities in the future, other third party borrowings, advances from our advisor or sponsors or from our advisor’s deferral of its fees under the advisory agreement. Distributions paid from sources other than current or accumulated earnings and profits may constitute a return of capital. From time to time, we may generate taxable income greater than our net income for financial reporting purposes, or our taxable income may be greater than our cash flow available for distribution to stockholders. In these situations we may make distributions in excess of our cash flow from operations, investment activities and strategic financings to satisfy the REIT distribution requirement. In such an event, we would look first to other third party borrowings to fund these distributions.
Critical Accounting Policies
Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that management considers critical in that they involve significant management judgments and assumptions, require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain and because they are important for understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. These judgments will 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.

Revenue Recognition
Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU No. 2014-09”), using the modified retrospective approach, which requires a cumulative effect adjustment as of the date of our adoption. Under the modified retrospective approach, an entity may also elect to apply this standard to either (i) all contracts as of January 1, 2018 or (ii) only to contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. A completed contract is a contract for which all (or substantially all) of the revenue was recognized under legacy GAAP that was in effect before the date of initial application. We elected to apply this standard only to contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018.
Based on our evaluation of contracts within the scope of ASU No. 2014-09, revenue that is impacted by ASU No. 2014-09 includes revenue generated by other operating income and tenant reimbursements for substantial services earned at our office properties and hotel revenues. The recognition of such revenue will occur when the services are provided and the performance obligations are satisfied.
Hotel Revenue
We recognize revenue for hotels as hotel revenue when earned. Revenues are recorded net of any sales or occupancy tax collected from our guests. Additionally, some of our hotel rooms are booked through independent internet travel intermediaries. If the guest pays the independent internet travel intermediary directly, revenue for the room is booked by us at the price we sold the room to the independent internet travel intermediary, less any discount or commission paid. If the guest pays us directly, revenue for the room is booked by us on a gross basis. We participate in frequent guest programs sponsored by the brand owners of our hotels and we expense the charges associated with those programs, as incurred. Hotel operating revenues are disaggregated in the real estate footnote into the categories of rooms revenue, food, beverage and convention services revenue, campground revenue and other revenue to demonstrate how economic factors affect the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows.

Room revenue is generated through contracts with customers whereby the customer agrees to pay a daily rate for the right to use a hotel room. Our contract performance obligations are fulfilled at the end of the day that the customer is provided the room and revenue is recognized daily at the contract rate. Payment from the customer is secured at the end of the contract upon check-out by the customer from our hotel. We record contract liabilities in the form of advanced deposits when a customer or group of customers provides a deposit for a future stay at our hotels. Advanced deposits for room revenue are included in the balance of other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Advanced deposits are recognized as revenue at the time of the guest’s stay. We note no significant judgments regarding the recognition of rooms revenue.
Food, beverage and convention revenue is generated through contracts with customers whereby the customer agrees to pay a contract rate for restaurant dining services or convention services. Our contract performance obligations are fulfilled at the time that the meal is provided to the customer or when the convention facilities and related dining amenities are provided to the customer. We recognize food and beverage revenue upon the fulfillment of the contract with the customer. We record contract liabilities in the form of advanced deposits when a customer or group of customers provides a deposit for a future banquet event at our hotels. Advanced deposits for food and beverage revenue are included in the balance of other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Advanced deposits for banquet services are recognized as revenue following the completion of the banquet services. We note no significant judgments regarding the recognition of food and beverage revenue.
Campground revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease when collectability is reasonably assured.
Office and Apartment Revenues
We recognize minimum rent, including rental abatements, lease incentives and contractual fixed increases attributable to operating leases, on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases when collectibility is reasonably assured and will record amounts expected to be received in later years as deferred rent receivable. If the lease provides for tenant improvements, we will determine whether the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, are owned by the tenant or us. When we are the owner of the tenant improvements, the tenant is not considered to have taken physical possession or have control of the physical use of the leased asset until the tenant improvements are substantially completed. When the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvement allowance (including amounts that can be taken in the form of cash or a credit against the tenant’s rent) that is funded is treated as a lease incentive and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the lease term. Tenant improvement ownership is determined based on various factors including, but not limited to:
whether the lease stipulates how a tenant improvement allowance may be spent;
whether the amount of a tenant improvement allowance is in excess of market rates;
whether the tenant or landlord retains legal title to the improvements at the end of the lease term;
whether the tenant improvements are unique to the tenant or general purpose in nature; and
whether the tenant improvements are expected to have any residual value at the end of the lease.

We record property operating expense reimbursements due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes, and other recoverable costs in the period the related expenses are incurred.
We lease apartment units under operating leases with terms generally of one year or less. Generally, credit investigations will be performed for prospective residents and security deposits will be obtained. We recognize rental revenue, net of concessions, on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, when collectibility is reasonably assured.
We make estimates of the collectibility of our tenant receivables related to base rents, including deferred rent, expense reimbursements and other revenue or income. We will specifically analyze accounts receivable, deferred rents receivable, historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, with respect to tenants in bankruptcy, we will make estimates of the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims in assessing the estimated collectibility of the related receivable. In some cases, the ultimate resolution of these claims can exceed one year. When a tenant is in bankruptcy, we will record a bad debt reserve for the tenant’s receivable balance and generally will not recognize subsequent rental revenue until cash is received or until the tenant is no longer in bankruptcy and has the ability to make rental payments.
Real Estate Equity Securities
Our real estate equity securities are carried at their estimated fair value based on quoted market prices for the security. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of real estate equity securities are capitalized to its cost basis. Upon adoption of ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU No. 2016-01”) on January 1, 2018, unrealized gains and losses on real estate equity securities are recognized in earnings.

Dividend income from real estate equity securities is recognized on an accrual basis based on eligible shares as of the ex-dividend date.
Real Estate
Depreciation and Amortization
Real estate costs related to the acquisition and improvement of properties are capitalized and depreciated over the expected useful life of the asset on a straight-line basis. Repair and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred and significant replacements and betterments are capitalized. Repair and maintenance costs will include all costs that do not extend the useful life of the real estate asset. We consider the period of future benefit of an asset to determine its appropriate useful life. Expenditures for tenant improvements will be capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the tenant’s lease term or expected useful life. We anticipate the estimated useful lives of our assets by class to be generally as follows:
LandN/A
Buildings25-40 years
Building improvements10-25 years
Tenant improvementsShorter of lease term or expected useful life
Tenant origination and absorption costsRemaining term of related leases, including below-market renewal periods
Real estate subsidies & tax abatementsRemaining term of agreement
Furniture, fixtures & equipment3-12 years
Real Estate Acquisition Valuation
As a result of our adoption of ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, acquisitions of real estate beginning January 1, 2017 could qualify as asset acquisitions (as opposed to business combinations). We record the acquisition of income-producing real estate or real estate that will be used for the production of income as a business combination or an asset acquisition. If substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, then the set is not a business. For purposes of this test, land and buildings can be combined along with the intangible assets for any in-place leases and accordingly, most acquisitions of investment properties would not meet the definition of a business and would be accounted for as an asset acquisition. To be considered a business, a set must include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contributes to the ability to create an output. All assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured at their acquisition date fair values. For asset acquisitions, the cost of the acquisition is allocated to individual assets and liabilities on a relative fair value basis. Acquisition costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred. Acquisition costs associated with asset acquisitions are capitalized.

Intangible assets include the value of in place leases, which represents the estimated value of the net cash flows of the in place leases to be realized, as compared to the net cash flows that would have occurred had the property been vacant at the time of acquisition and subject to lease up. Acquired in place lease values are amortized to expense over the average remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective in place leases, including any below-market renewal periods. Intangible assets also include the estimated value of subsidy receipts for apartments, which are recorded at a discounted present value based on estimated collectibility and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period the amounts are expected to be collected.
We assess the acquisition date fair values of all tangible assets, identifiable intangibles and assumed liabilities using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers generally utilizing a discounted cash flow analysis that applies appropriate discount and/or capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows will be based on a number of factors, including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions. The fair value of tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.
We record above-market and below-market in-place lease values for acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of above-market in-place leases and for the initial term plus any extended term for any leases with below-market renewal options. We amortize any recorded above-market or below-market lease values as a reduction or increase, respectively, to rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective lease, including any below-market renewal periods.
We estimate the value of tenant origination and absorption costs by considering the estimated carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease up periods, considering current market conditions. In estimating carrying costs, we include real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease up periods.

We amortize the value of tenant origination and absorption costs to depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining non-cancelable term of the leases.
Subsequent to the acquisition of a property, we may incur and capitalize costs necessary to get the property ready for its intended use. During that time, certain costs such as legal fees, real estate taxes and insurance and financing costs are also capitalized.
Estimates of the fair values of the tangible assets, identifiable intangibles and assumed liabilities require us to make significant assumptions to estimate market lease rates, property-operating expenses, carrying costs during lease-up periods, discount rates, market absorption periods, and the number of years the property will be held for investment.
Impairment of Real Estate and Related Intangible Assets and Liabilities
We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of our real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable or realized. When indicators of potential impairment suggest that the carrying value of real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable, we assess the recoverability by estimating whether we will recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities through its undiscounted future cash flows and its eventual disposition. If, based on this analysis, we do not believe that we will be able to recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities, we would record an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities.
Projecting future cash flows involves estimating expected future operating income and expenses related to the real estate and its related intangible assets and liabilities as well as market and other trends. Using inappropriate assumptions to estimate cash flows could result in incorrect fair values of the real estate and its related intangible assets and liabilities and could result in the overstatement of the carrying values of our real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities and an overstatement of our net income.
Construction in Progress
Direct investments in undeveloped land or development properties without leases in place at the time of acquisition are accounted for as an asset acquisition and not as a business combination. Acquisition fees and expenses are capitalized into the cost basis of an asset acquisition. Additionally, during the time in which we are incurring costs necessary to bring these investments to their intended use, certain costs such as legal fees, real estate taxes and insurance and financing costs are also capitalized. Once construction in progress is substantially completed, the amounts capitalized to construction in progress are transferred to land and buildings and improvements and are depreciated over their respective useful lives.

Derivative Instruments
We enter into derivative instruments for risk management purposes to hedge our exposure to cash flow variability caused by changing interest rates on our variable rate notes payable. We record these derivative instruments at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The changes in fair value for derivative instruments that are not designated as a hedge or that do not meet the hedge accounting criteria are recorded as a component of interest expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Derivative instruments 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. The change in fair value of the effective portion of a derivative instrument that is designated as a cash flow hedge is recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) on the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) and consolidated statements of equity.
With respect to derivative instruments designated as a hedge, we will formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk-management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes designating all derivative instruments that are part of a hedging relationship to specific forecasted transactions or recognized obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. We also assess and document, both at the hedging instrument’s inception and on a quarterly basis thereafter, whether the derivative instruments that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows associated with the respective hedged items. When we determine that a derivative instrument ceases to be highly effective as a hedge, or that it is probable the underlying forecasted transaction will not occur, we discontinue hedge accounting prospectively and reclassify amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings.

The termination of a cash flow hedge prior to the maturity date may result in a net derivative instrument gain or loss that continues to be reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into earnings over the period of the original forecasted hedged transaction (i.e., LIBOR based debt service payments) unless it is probable that the original forecasted hedged transaction will not occur by the end of the originally specified time period (as documented at the inception of the hedging relationship) or within an additional two-month period of time thereafter. If it is probable that the hedged forecasted transaction will not occur either by the end of the originally specified time period or within the additional two-month period of time, that derivative instrument gain or loss reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) shall be reclassified into earnings immediately.
Fair Value Measurements
Under GAAP, we are required to measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, we are required to measure other non-financial and financial assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis (e.g., carrying value of impaired real estate loans receivable and long lived assets). Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The GAAP fair value framework uses a three tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;  
Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
When available, we will utilize quoted market prices from an independent source to determine fair value and will classify such items in Level 1 or Level 2. In instances where the market for a financial instrument is not active, regardless of the availability of a nonbinding quoted market price, observable inputs might not be relevant and could require us to make a significant adjustment to derive a fair value measurement. Additionally, in an inactive market, a market price quoted from an independent third party may rely more on models with inputs based on information available only to that independent third party. When we determine the market for a financial instrument owned by us to be illiquid or when market transactions for similar instruments do not appear orderly, we will use several valuation sources (including internal valuations, discounted cash flow analysis and quoted market prices) and will establish a fair value by assigning weights to the various valuation sources. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, we will measure fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach.

Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values. In this regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.
We consider the following factors to be indicators of an inactive market: (i) there are few recent transactions, (ii) price quotations are not based on current information, (iii) price quotations vary substantially either over time or among market makers (for example, some brokered markets), (iv) indexes that previously were highly correlated with the fair values of the asset or liability are demonstrably uncorrelated with recent indications of fair value for that asset or liability, (v) there is a significant increase in implied liquidity risk premiums, yields, or performance indicators (such as delinquency rates or loss severities) for observed transactions or quoted prices when compared with our estimate of expected cash flows, considering all available market data about credit and other nonperformance risk for the asset or liability, (vi) there is a wide bid ask spread or significant increase in the bid ask spread, (vii) there is a significant decline or absence of a market for new issuances (that is, a primary market) for the asset or liability or similar assets or liabilities, and (viii) little information is released publicly (for example, a principal to principal market).
We consider the following factors to be indicators of non-orderly transactions: (i) there was not adequate exposure to the market for a period before the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets or liabilities under current market conditions, (ii) there was a usual and customary marketing period, but the seller marketed the asset or liability to a single market participant, (iii) the seller is in or near bankruptcy or receivership (that is, distressed), or the seller was required to sell to meet regulatory or legal requirements (that is, forced), and (iv) the transaction price is an outlier when compared with other recent transactions for the same or similar assets or liabilities.

Income Taxes
We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To qualify as a REIT, we must continue to meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income to our stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent we distribute qualifying dividends to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially and adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, we believe that we are organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT.
Subsequent Events
We evaluate subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.

COVID-19
The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 (more commonly known as the Coronavirus) has significantly disrupted economic markets and impacted commercial activity worldwide, including the US, and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. Customers and potential customers of the properties we own could be adversely affected by the disruption to business caused by the global outbreak of the Coronavirus. This could lead to similar negative impacts on our dividend reinvestment plan.business.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes as a result of borrowings used to maintain liquidity and to fund the financing of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. We are also exposed to the effects of foreign currency changes in the Euro with respect to our €2.1 million participating loan facility. Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the possibility that our financial results could be better or worse than planned because of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our profitability and the value of our investment portfolio may be adversely affected during any period as a result of interest rate changes and foreign currency changes. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. We may manage interest rate risk by maintaining a ratio of fixed rate, long-term debt such that floating rate exposure is kept at an acceptable level. In addition, we may utilize a variety of financial instruments, including interest rate caps, floors, and swap agreements, in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our operations. When we use these types of derivatives to hedge the risk of interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, we may be subject to certain risks, including the risk that losses on a hedge position will reduce the funds available for payments to holders of our common stock and that the losses may exceed the amount we invested in the instruments.

The table below summarizes the outstanding principal balance and the weighted average interest rates for our notes payable for each category as of December 31, 20182019 based on the maturity dates and the notional amount and average interest strike rates of our derivative instrument as of December 31, 20182019 based on maturity date (dollars in thousands):

(1) The average interest strike rate represents the weighted-average cap on one-month LIBOR on the applicable notional amounts.
(2) Average interest rate is the weighted-average interest rate. Weighted-average interest rate as of December 31, 20182019 is calculated as the actual interest rate in effect at December 31, 20182019 (consisting of the contractual interest rate), using interest rate indices at December 31, 2018,2019, where applicable.
Movements in interest rates on variable rate debt would change our future earnings and cash flows, but would not significantly affect the fair value of those instruments. However, changes in required risk premiums would result in changes in the fair value of floating rate instruments. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $328.8$329.6 million of variable rate debt outstanding. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we have also entered into threefour interest rate cap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $107.2$177.1 million, which effectively cap one-month LIBOR at a range of 3.00%-4.00%. The weighted-average remaining term of the interest rate caps is 0.81.5 years. Based on interest rates as of December 31, 2018,2019, if interest rates were 100 basis points higher or lower during the 12 months ending December 31, 2019, interest expense on our variable rate debt would increase or decrease, respectively, by $2.7$3.3 million and $3.3 million, respectively.
The weighted-average interest rate of our variable rate debt as of December 31, 20182019 was 5.2%4.3%. The weighted-average interest rate represents the actual interest rate in effect as of December 31, 20182019 (consisting of the contractual interest rate and the effect of interest rate caps, if applicable), using interest rate indices as of December 31, 20182019 where applicable.

We are exposed to financial market risk with respect to our real estate equity securities. Financial market risk is the risk that we will incur economic losses due to adverse changes in our real estate equity security prices. Our exposure to changes in real estate equity security prices is a result of our investment in these types of securities. Market prices are subject to fluctuation and, therefore, the amount realized in the subsequent sale of an investment may significantly differ from the reported market value. Fluctuation in the market prices of a real estate equity security may result from any number of factors, including perceived changes in the underlying fundamental characteristics of the issuer, the relative price of alternative investments, interest rates, default rates and general market conditions. In addition, amounts realized in the sale of a particular security may be affected by the relative quantity of the real estate equity security being sold. We do not currently engage in derivative or other hedging transactions to manage our real estate equity security price risk. As of December 31, 2018,2019, we owned real estate equity securities with a book value of $7.2$9.9 million. Based solely on the prices of real estate equity securities for the three months endedas of December 31, 2018,2019, if prices were to increase or decrease by 10%, our net income would increase or decrease, respectively, by approximately $0.7$1.0 million.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act.
In connection with the preparation of our Form 10-K, our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018.2019. In making that assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013).
Based on its assessment, our management believes that, as of December 31, 2018,2019, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria. There
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
On November 1, 2019, we entered into an advisory agreement with a new external advisor, Pacific Oak Capital Advisors, LLC, and as a result, all processes have been affected by this change. In most cases, the accounting functions are the same but performed by new personnel. Effective November 1, 2019, Michael A. Bender was appointed to serve as our Executive Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary and Chief Financial Officer-Elect and on November 8, 2019 became Chief Financial Officer. The new external advisor has transitioned most accounting functions to a service provider during our last fiscal quarter, and this resulted in a change to our processes and control environment. There were no other changes into our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during theour last fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 13.CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Director Independence
A majority of our board of directors, Messrs. Degryse, Joliet, and Yee, meet the independence criteria as specified in our charter, as set forth on Appendix A attached hereto. In addition, and although our shares are not listed for trading on any national securities exchange, a majority of our directors, and all of the members of the audit committee and the conflicts committee, are “independent” as defined by the New York Stock Exchange. The New York Stock Exchange standards provide that to qualify as an independent director, in addition to satisfying certain bright-line criteria, our board of directors must affirmatively determine that a director has no material relationship with us (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with us). Our board of directors has affirmatively determined that Kenneth G. Yee, John P. Joliet and Laurent Degryse each satisfies the New York Stock Exchange independence standards. Kenneth G. Yee also serves as independent director of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT.POSOR I. None of these directors has ever served as (or is related to) an employee of ours or any of our predecessors or acquired companies or received or earned any compensation from us or any such entities except for compensation directly related to service as a director of us. Therefore, we believe that all of these directors are independent directors.
Report of the Conflicts Committee
Review of Our Policies
The conflicts committee has reviewed our policies and determined that they are in the best interest of our stockholders. Set forth below is a discussion of the basis for that determination.
Offering Policy. We conducted an initial primary public offering from August 12, 2014 through July 31, 2018. We are continuing to offer shares of our common stock pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan offering at a purchase price equal to our estimated net asset value per share. We may continue to offer shares under the dividend reinvestment plan until we have sold an aggregate of 76,366,006 shares of our Class A and Class T common stock through the reinvestment of distributions. In some states, we will need to renew the registration statement annually or file a new registration statement to continue our dividend reinvestment plan offering. We may terminate our dividend reinvestment plan offering at any time.

For the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, the costs of raising capital in our primary initial public offering and our dividend reinvestment plan offering represented 6%less than 1% of the capital raised.
84

Acquisition and Investment Policies. We have invested a significant amount of the net proceeds of our now-terminated primary initial public offering and do not anticipate making additional real estate acquisitions. As of January 31, 2019,2020, we had invested in two hotel properties, fourthree office properties, one apartment building, an investmenttwo investments in an unconsolidated entityentities and an investment in real estate equity securities. Additionally, as of January 31, 2019,2020, we had entered into a joint venture to develop one office/retail property.
Borrowing Policies. In order to execute our investment strategy, we have utilized secured debt and we may, to the extent available, utilize unsecured debt, to finance a portion of our investment portfolio. Management remains vigilant in monitoring the risks inherent with the use of debt in our portfolio and is taking actions to ensure that these risks, including refinancing and interest risks, are properly balanced with the benefit of using leverage. We expect our debt financing will be 60% or less of the cost of our tangible assets (before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves). There is no limitation on the amount we may borrow for any single investment. Our charter limits our total liabilities such that our total liabilities may not exceed 75% of the cost of our tangible assets (before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves); however, we may exceed that limit if a majority of the conflicts committee approves each borrowing in excess of our charter limitation and we disclose such borrowing to our common stockholders in our next quarterly report with an explanation from the conflicts committee of the justification for the excess borrowing.
We do not intend to exceed this leverage limit. Careful use of debt will help us to achieve our diversification goals because we will have more funds available for investment. However, high levels of debt could cause us to incur higher interest charges and higher debt service payments, which would decrease the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders, and could also be accompanied by restrictive covenants. High levels of debt could also increase the risk of being unable to refinance when loans become due, or of being unable to refinance on favorable terms, and the risk of loss with respect to assets pledged as collateral for loans.
Except with respect to the borrowing limits contained in our charter, we may reevaluate and change our debt policy in the future without a stockholder vote. Factors that we would consider when reevaluating or changing our debt policy include: then-current economic conditions, the relative cost and availability of debt and equity capital, any investment opportunities, the ability of our investments to generate sufficient cash flow to cover debt service requirements and other similar factors. Further, we may increase or decrease our ratio of debt to book value in connection with any change of our borrowing policies.
As of January 31, 2019,2020, our borrowings and other liabilities were both approximately 61%60% of the cost (before deducting depreciation and other noncash reserves) and book value (before deducting depreciation) of our tangible assets.assets, respectively.
Disposition Policies. The period that we will hold our investments in opportunistic real estate, real estate-related loans, real estate equity securities and other real estate-related investments will vary depending on the type of asset, interest rates and other factors. Our advisor develops a well-defined exit strategy for each investment we make and continually performs a hold-sell analysis on each asset in order to determine the optimal time to hold the asset and generate a strong return for our stockholders. Economic and market conditions may influence us to hold our investments for different periods of time. We may sell an asset before the end of the expected holding period if we believe that market conditions have maximized its value to us or the sale of the asset would otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders.
We did not disposedisposed of any real estate assetsone office building, 2200 Paseo Verde, during the year ended December 31, 2018.2019.
Policy Regarding Working Capital Reserves. We establish an annual budget for capital requirements and working capital reserves each year that we update periodically during the year. We may set aside proceeds from our primary initial public offering for working capital purposes. We may also use proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan offering, debt proceeds and cash flow from operations to meet our needs for working capital and to build a moderate level of cash reserves. In addition, contractual obligations may require us to maintain a minimum working capital reserve related to our properties.
Policies Regarding Operating Expenses. Under our charter, we are required to limit our total operating expenses to the greater of 2% of our average invested assets or 25% of our net income for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters, as these terms are defined in our charter, unless the conflicts committee has determined that such excess expenses were justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors. For the four consecutive quarters ended December 31, 2018,2019, total operating expenses represented approximately 1% and 63%676% of average invested assets and our net income, respectively.

Our Policy Regarding Transactions with Related Persons. Our charter requires the conflicts committee to review and approve all transactions between us and our advisor, and any of our officers or directors or any of their affiliates. Prior to entering into a transaction with a related party, a majority of the conflicts committee must conclude that the transaction is fair and reasonable to us and on terms and conditions not less favorable to us than those available from unaffiliated third parties. In addition, our Code of Conduct and Ethics lists examples of types of transactions with related parties that would create prohibited conflicts of interest and requires our officers and directors to be conscientious of actual and potential conflicts of interest with respect to our interests and to seek to avoid such conflicts or handle such conflicts in an ethical manner at all times consistent with applicable law. Our executive officers and directors are required to report potential and actual conflicts to the Compliance Officer, currently our advisor’s Chief Audit Executive,Financial Officer, via the Ethics Hotline, or directly to the audit committee chair, as appropriate.

Our advisor or its affiliates have paid our organization and other offering expenses (other than selling commissions, dealer manager fees and the stockholder servicing fee with respect to Class T shares sold in our primary initial public offering) related to our primary initial public offering in excess of 1.0% of gross proceeds from our primary initial public offering.

From January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017 and from January 1, 2018 through January 31, 2019, no organization and offering expenses related to the private offering were incurred by our advisor on our behalf. From January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017, our advisor incurred approximately $0.9 million of organization and offering expenses related to the public offering on our behalf and from January 1, 2018 through January 31, 2019, our advisor incurred approximately $0.9 million of organization and offering expenses related to the public offering on our behalf. As of January 31, 2019, as a result of the limit on organization and offering expenses described above, our advisor and its affiliates paid $4.5 million of organization and offering expenses related to our initial public offering on our behalf.
In addition, through January 31, 2019, our advisor had incurred $0.1 million in organization and offering costs on our behalf in connection with a proposed follow-on offering we filed with the SEC on August 10, 2017. We do not intend to pursue the follow-on offering and therefore these expenses remain the responsibility of our advisor as they are subject to the 1.0% limitation described above.
We incur acquisition and origination fees payable to our advisor equal to a percentage of the cost of investments acquired or originated by us, or the amount to be funded by us to acquire or originate loans, including acquisition and origination expenses and any debt attributable to such investments plus significant capital expenditures related to the development, construction or improvement of the investment budgeted as of the date of acquisition. Acquisition and origination fees relate to services provided in connection with the selection and acquisition or origination of real estate investments. For investments acquired or originated with proceeds raised in our offerings on or prior to February 16, 2016, this percentage is 1.5%. For investments acquired or originated with proceeds raised in our initial public offering after February 16, 2016, this percentage is 2.6%. Acquisition and origination fees from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017 totaled approximately $4.9 million. Acquisition and origination fees from January 1, 20182019 through January 31, 20192020 totaled approximately $0.3 million, of which $0.2 million was outstanding as of January 31, 2019.$29,000.
In addition to acquisition and origination fees, we reimburse our advisor for customary acquisition and origination expenses, whether or not we ultimately acquire the asset. From January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017 and from January 1, 20182019 through January 31, 2019,2020, our advisor and its affiliates did not incur any such costs on our behalf.
For asset management services, we pay our advisor a monthly fee equal to the lesser of one-twelfth of (i) 1.0% of the cost of our investments and (ii) 2.0% of the sum of the cost of our investments, less any debt secured by or attributable to the investments. The cost of the real property investments is calculated as the amount paid or allocated to acquire the real property, including the cost of any subsequent development, construction or improvements to the property and including fees and expenses related thereto (but excluding acquisition fees paid or payable to our advisor). The cost of the loans and any investments other than real property is calculated as the lesser of (x) the amount actually paid or allocated to acquire or fund the loan or other investment, including fees and expenses related thereto (but excluding acquisition fees paid or payable to our advisor), and (y) the outstanding principal amount of such loan or other investment, including fees and expenses related to the acquisition or funding of such investment (but excluding acquisition fees paid or payable to our advisor), as of the time of calculation. In the case of investments made through joint ventures, the asset management fee is determined based on our proportionate share of the underlying investment. From January 1, 20172019 through DecemberJanuary 31, 2017,2020, our asset management fees totaled $2.9$4.4 million. From January 1, 2018 through January 31, 2019, our asset management fees totaled $4.2 million, of which $22,000 was outstanding as of January 31, 2019.
Under the advisory agreement our advisor and its affiliates have the right to seek reimbursement from us for all costs and expenses they incur in connection with their provision of services to us, including our allocable share of our advisor’s overhead, such as rent, employee costs, utilities, accounting software and cybersecurity costs. Our advisor may seek reimbursement for employee costs under the advisory agreement. At this time, our advisor only expects to seek reimbursement for our allocable portion of the salaries, benefits and overhead of internal audit department personnel providing services to us. In the future, if our advisor seeks reimbursement for additional employee costs, such costs may include our proportionate share of the salaries of persons involved in the preparation of documents to meet SEC reporting requirements. We do not reimburse our advisor or its affiliates for employee costs in connection with services for which our advisor earns acquisition or origination fees or disposition fees (other than reimbursement of travel and communication expenses) or for the salaries and benefits our advisor or its affiliates may pay to our executive officers. From January 1, 20172019 through DecemberJanuary 31, 2017,2020, we had reimbursed our advisor for $0.3 million of operating expenses, including $0.3 million of employee costs. From January 1, 2018 through January 31, 2019, we had reimbursed our advisor for $0.5 million of operating expenses, including $0.4 million of employee costs. As of January 31, 2019, we had $0.1 million of operating expenses outstanding, including $50,000 of employee costs.
The conflicts committee considers our relationship with our advisor during 20172018 and 20182019 to be fair. The conflicts committee believes that the amounts paid or payable to our advisor under the advisory agreement are similar to those paid by other publicly offered, unlisted, externally advised REITs and that this compensation is necessary in order for our advisor to provide the desired level of services to us and our stockholders.

Our Relationship with KBS Capital Markets Group. We entered a dealer manager agreement with our dealer manager on August 12, 2014 in connection with the launch of our initial public offering which agreement was amended and restated on February 17, 2016.2016 and terminated effective December 31, 2019.

All or a portion of the selling commissions were not charged with regard to shares sold to certain categories of purchasers. A reduced dealer manager fee was payable with respect to certain volume discount sales. The dealer manager reallowed 100% of selling commissions to broker-dealers participating in our initial public offering. From its dealer manager fee, our dealer manager generally reallowed to any participating broker-dealer up to 1.0% of the gross offering proceeds attributable to that participating broker-dealer as a marketing fee (in select cases, up to 1.5% of the gross primary offering proceeds).

In addition, our dealer manager received an annual stockholder servicing fee of 1.0% of the purchase price per share (ignoring any discounts that may be available to certain categories of purchasers) of Class T common stock sold in our primary initial public offering solely to the extent there was a broker-dealer of record with respect to such Class T share that had entered into a currently effective selected dealer agreement or servicing agreement that provided for the payment to such broker-dealer of the stockholder servicing fee with respect to such Class T share, and such broker-dealer of record was in compliance with the applicable terms of such selected dealer agreement or servicing agreement related to such payment. To the extent payable, the stockholder servicing fee accrued daily and was paid monthly in arrears, and our dealer manager reallowed 100% of the stockholder servicing fee to such broker-dealer of record for services provided to Class T stockholders after the initial sale of the Class T share. 
No stockholder servicing fee was paid with respect to Class T shares purchased through our dividend reinvestment plan offering or issued pursuant to a stock dividend.

Subordinated Participation in Net Cash Flows.
Upon a merger or listing of our common stock on a national securities exchange, we may pay Pacific Oak Capital Advisors an incentive fee. Upon a listing this fee will equal 15% of the amount by which (i) the market value of our outstanding stock plus the total of all distributions paid by us to stockholders from inception until the date market value is determined (regardless of the source used to fund such distributions and including distributions that may constitute a return of capital for federal income tax purposes and excluding any stock dividend) exceeds (ii) the sum of our stockholders’ gross investment amount, which is the amount calculated by multiplying the total number of shares purchased by stockholders by the issue price, reduced by the total number of shares repurchased by us (excluding shares received as a stock dividend which we subsequently repurchased) multiplied by the weighted average issue price of the shares sold in the primary offering, and the amount of cash flow necessary to generate a 7.0% per year cumulative, noncompounded return on our stockholders’ gross investment amount from our inception through the date the market value is determined.
Upon a merger this fee will equal 15% of the amount by which (i) the merger consideration amount plus the total of all distributions paid or declared by us to stockholders from inception until the closing of the merger (regardless of the source used to fund such distributions and including distributions that may constitute a return of capital for federal income tax purposes and excluding any stock dividend) exceeds (ii) the sum of our stockholders’ gross investment amount, which is the amount calculated by multiplying the total number of shares purchased by stockholders by the issue price, reduced by the total number of shares repurchased by us (excluding shares received as a stock dividend which we subsequently repurchased) multiplied by the weighted average issue price of the shares sold in the primary offering, and the amount necessary to generate a 7.0% per year cumulative, noncompounded return on our stockholders’ gross investment amount from our inception through the closing of the merger.
If our advisor receives a subordinated incentive fee, the fee will not be separately reduced by the prior payment to our advisor of a participation in our net cash flows as the calculation of the subordinated incentive fee takes into account any prior payment to our advisor of this participation. In addition, if Pacific Oak Capital Advisors is entitled to selling commissions, dealer manager fees andreceive the stockholder servicingsubordinated incentive fee and subjectupon a listing, Pacific Oak Capital Advisors will no longer participate in our net cash flows as described above.
The 7.0% per year cumulative, noncompounded return on gross investment amount is calculated on a daily basis. In making this calculation, gross investment amount is determined for each day during the period for which the 7.0% per year cumulative, noncompounded return is being calculated, including a daily adjustment to the limitations on organization and offering expenses described above, we were also obligated to reimburse our dealer manager and its affiliates for certain offering-related expenses that they incur on our behalf. These expenses included, among others, the cost of bona fide training and education meetings heldreflect shares repurchased by us (primarily(excluding shares received as a stock dividend which we subsequently repurchased). In addition, gross investment amount is reduced by the travel, mealfollowing: (i) distributions from net sales proceeds, (ii) distributions from net financing proceeds, and lodging costs(iii) distributions paid from cash flow from operations in excess of registered representativesa cumulative, noncompounded, annual return of broker-dealers), attendance and sponsorship fees payable7.0%. Gross investment amount is only reduced as described above; it is not reduced simply because a distribution constitutes a return of capital for federal income tax purposes. The 7.0% per year cumulative, noncompounded return is not based on the return provided to participating broker-dealers hosting retail seminars and travel, meal and lodging costsany individual stockholder but rather is based on total distributions paid on all outstanding shares relative to total gross investment amount invested by all stockholders. Accordingly, it is not necessary for registered persons associated with our dealer manager and officers and employeeseach of our affiliatesstockholders to attend retail seminars conducted by broker-dealers, legal feeshave received any minimum return in order for Pacific Oak Capital Advisors to receive the subordinated incentive fee.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB)(“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.


We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.


Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


/s/ Ernst & Young LLP


We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2013.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, REIT Holdings, the Operating Partnership and their direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries and joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

December 31, 2019
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of prior periods. Upon adoption of the lease accounting standards of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019 (described below), the Company accounted for tenant reimbursements for property taxes, insurance and common area maintenance as variable lease payments and recorded these amounts as rental income. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company reclassified $2.5 million and $22,000 of tenant reimbursement revenue for property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance to office revenues and apartment revenues, respectively, for comparability purposes. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company reclassified $0.9 million and $24,000 of tenant reimbursement revenue for property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance to office revenues and apartment revenues, respectively, for comparability purposes.
In addition, upon adoption of the lease accounting standards of Topic 842, the Company’s 2 ground leases which were classified as capital leases under ASC 840 were reclassified as finance leases under ASC 842. The existing capital lease assets were reclassified as right-of-use assets and the existing obligation as lease liabilities as of January 1, 2019. The reclassification of these ground leases did not have a material impact to the Company’s financial statements as the accounting and presentation of the related assets and liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 was consistent with the previous period. The Company’s 2 ground leases had an aggregate right-of-use asset of $8.7 million and an aggregate lease liability of $8.2 million as of December 31, 2019, which are included in total real estate, net and other liabilities, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.
Revenue Recognition
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU No. 2014-09”), using the modified retrospective approach, which requires a cumulative effect adjustment as of the date of the Company’s adoption. Under the modified retrospective approach, an entity may also elect to apply this standard to either (i) all contracts as of January 1, 2018 or (ii) only to contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. A completed contract is a contract for which all (or substantially all) of the revenue was recognized under legacy GAAP that was in effect before the date of initial application. The Company elected to apply this standard only to contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018.
Based on the Company’s evaluation of contracts within the scope of ASU No. 2014-09, revenue that is impacted by ASU No. 2014-09 includes revenue generated by other operating income and tenant reimbursements for substantial services earned at the Company’s office properties and hotel revenues. The recognition of such revenue will occur when the services are provided and the performance obligations are satisfied.

Hotel Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue for hotels as hotel revenue when earned. Revenues are recorded net of any sales or occupancy tax collected from the Company’s guests. Additionally, some of the Company’s hotel rooms are booked through independent internet travel intermediaries. If the guest pays the independent internet travel intermediary directly, revenue for the room is booked by the Company at the price the Company sold the room to the independent internet travel intermediary, less any discount or commission paid. If the guest pays the Company directly, revenue for the room is booked by the Company on a gross basis. The Company participates in frequent guest programs sponsored by the brand owners of the Company’s hotels and the Company expenses the charges associated with those programs, as incurred. Hotel operating revenues are disaggregated in the real estate footnote into the categories of rooms revenue, food, beverage and convention services revenue, campground revenue and other revenue to demonstrate how economic factors affect the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows.
Room revenue is generated through contracts with customers whereby the customer agrees to pay a daily rate for the right to use a hotel room. The Company’s contract performance obligations are fulfilled at the end of the day that the customer is provided the room and revenue is recognized daily at the contract rate. The Company records contract liabilities in the form of advanced deposits when a customer or group of customers provides a deposit for a future stay at the Company’s hotels. Advanced deposits for room revenue are included in the balance of other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Advanced deposits are recognized as revenue at the time of the guest’s stay.

Food, beverage and convention revenue is generated through contracts with customers whereby the customer agrees to pay a contract rate for restaurant dining services or convention services. The Company’s contract performance obligations are fulfilled at the time that the meal is provided to the customer or when the convention facilities and related dining amenities are provided to the customer. The Company recognizes food and beverage revenue upon the fulfillment of the contract with the customer. The Company records contract liabilities in the form of advanced deposits when a customer or group of customers provides a deposit for a future banquet event at the Company’s hotels. Advanced deposits for food and beverage revenue are included in the balance of other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Advanced deposits for banquet services are recognized as revenue following the completion of the banquet services.
Campground revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease when collectability of the lease payments is reasonably assured.probable.
Office and Apartment Revenues
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the lease accounting standards under Topic 842 including the package of practical expedients for all leases that commenced before the effective date of January 1, 2019. Accordingly, the Company (i) did not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) did not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing lease, and (iii) did not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company did not elect the practical expedient related to using hindsight to reevaluate the lease term. In addition, the Company adopted the practical expedient for land easements and did not assess whether existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under the lease accounting standards of Topic 840 are or contain a lease under Topic 842.
In addition, Topic 842 provides an optional transition method to allow entities to apply the new lease accounting standards at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company adopted this transition method upon its adoption of the lease accounting standards of Topic 842, which did not result in a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on January 1, 2019. The Company’s comparative periods presented in the financial statements will continue to be reported under the lease accounting standards of Topic 840.
In accordance with Topic 842, tenant reimbursements for property taxes and insurance are included in the single lease component of the lease contract (the right of the lessee to use the leased space) and therefore are accounted for as variable lease payments and are recorded as rental income on the Company’s statement of operations beginning January 1, 2019. In addition, the Company adopted the practical expedient available under Topic 842 to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component and instead to account for those components as a single component if the nonlease components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue recognition standard (Topic 606) and if certain conditions are met, specifically related to tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance which would otherwise be accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The Company believes the two conditions have been met for tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance as (i) the timing and pattern of transfer of the nonlease components and associated lease components are the same and (ii) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease. Accordingly, tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance are also accounted for as variable lease payments and recorded as rental income on the Company’s statement of operations beginning January 1, 2019.

The Company recognizes minimum rent, including rental abatements, lease incentives and contractual fixed increases attributable to operating leases, on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases when collectibility is reasonably assuredprobable and records amounts expected to be received in later years as deferred rent receivable. If the lease provides for tenant improvements, the Company determines whether the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, are owned by the tenant or the Company. When the Company is the owner of the tenant improvements, the tenant is not considered to have taken physical possession or have control of the physical use of the leased asset until the tenant improvements are substantially completed. When the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvement allowance (including amounts that can be taken in the form of cash or a credit against the tenant’s rent) that is funded is treated as a lease incentive and amortized as a reduction of rental revenue over the lease term. Tenant improvement ownership is determined based on various factors including, but not limited to:
whether the lease stipulates how a tenant improvement allowance may be spent;
whether the lessee or lessor supervises the construction and bears the risk of cost overruns;
whether the amount of a tenant improvement allowance is in excess of market rates;
whether the tenant or landlord retains legal title to the improvements at the end of the lease term;
whether the tenant improvements are unique to the tenant or general purpose in nature; and
whether the tenant improvements are expected to have any residual value at the end of the lease.

Sale of Real Estate
The Company adopted the guidance of ASC 610-20, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (“(“ASC 610-20”), which applies to sales or transfers to noncustomers of nonfinancial assets or in substance nonfinancial assets that do not meet the definition of a business. Generally, the Company’s sales of real estate would be considered a sale of a nonfinancial asset as defined by ASC 610-20.
ASC 610-20 refers to the revenue recognition principles under ASU No. 2014-09. Under ASC 610-20, if the Company determines it does not have a controlling financial interest in the entity that holds the asset and the arrangement meets the criteria to be accounted for as a contract, the Company would derecognize the asset and recognize a gain or loss on the sale of the real estate when control of the underlying asset transfers to the buyer. The Company did not have anysold 1 office building during the years ended December 31, 2019 and recognized a gain of $4.2 million.

Real Estate Equity Securities
The Company’s real estate equity securities are carried at their estimated fair value based on quoted market prices for the security. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of real estate equity securities are capitalized to its cost basis. Upon adoption of ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU No. 2016-01”) on January 1, 2018, unrealizedUnrealized gains and losses on real estate equity securities are recognized in earnings.
Dividend income from real estate equity securities is recognized on an accrual basis based on eligible shares as of the ex-dividend date.
Real Estate Loans Receivable
Interest income on the Company’s real estate loans receivable is recognized on an accrual basis over the life of the investment using the interest method. Direct loan origination or acquisition fees and costs, as well as acquisition premiums or discounts, are amortized over the term of the loan as an adjustment to interest income. The Company places loans on non-accrual status when any portion of principal or interest is 90 days past due, or earlier when concern exists as to the ultimate collection of principal or interest. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, the Company reserves for any unpaid accrued interest and generally does not recognize subsequent interest income until cash is received, or the loan returns to accrual status. The Company will resume the accrual of interest if it determines the collection of interest, according to the contractual terms of the loan, is probable.
The Company generally recognizes income on impaired loans on either a cash basis, where interest income is only recorded when received in cash, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts are applied against the carrying value of the loan. The Company considers the collectibility of the loan’s principal balance in determining whether to recognize income on impaired loans on a cash basis or a cost-recovery basis.

Depreciation and Amortization
Real estate costs related to the acquisition and improvement of properties are capitalized and depreciated over the expected useful life of the asset on a straight-line basis. Repair and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred and significant replacements and betterments are capitalized. Repair and maintenance costs include all costs that do not extend the useful life of the real estate asset. The Company considers the period of future benefit of an asset to determine its appropriate useful life. Expenditures for lessor owned tenant improvements are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the tenant’s lease term or expected useful life.

Real Estate Acquisition Valuation
As a result of the Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, acquisitions of real estate beginning January 1, 2017 could qualify as asset acquisitions (as opposed to business combinations). The Company records the acquisition of income-producing real estate or real estate that will be used for the production of income as a business combination or an asset acquisition. If substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, then the set is not a business. For purposes of this test, land and buildings can be combined along with the intangible assets for any in-place leases and accordingly, most acquisitions of investment properties would not meet the definition of a business and would be accounted for as an asset acquisition. To be considered a business, a set must include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contributes to the ability to create an output. All assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured at their acquisition-date fair values. For asset acquisitions, the cost of the acquisition is allocated to individual assets and liabilities on a relative fair value basis. Acquisition costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred. Acquisition costs associated with asset acquisitions are capitalized.
Intangible assets include the value of in-place leases, which represents the estimated value of the net cash flows of the in-place leases to be realized, as compared to the net cash flows that would have occurred had the property been vacant at the time of acquisition and subject to lease-up. Acquired in-place lease values are amortized to expense over the average remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective in-place leases, including any below-market renewal periods. Intangible assets also include the estimated value of subsidy receipts for apartments, which are recorded at a discounted present value based on estimated collectibility and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period the amounts are expected to be collected.
The Company assesses the acquisition-date fair values of all tangible assets, identifiable intangibles and assumed liabilities using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers, generally utilizing a discounted cash flow analysis that applies appropriate discount and/or capitalization rates and available market information. 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. The fair value of tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.

The Company records above-market and below-market in-place lease values for acquired properties based on the present value (using a discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of above-market in-place leases and for the initial term plus any extended term for any leases with below-market renewal options. The Company amortizes any recorded above-market or below-market lease values as a reduction or increase, respectively, to rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective lease, including any below-market renewal periods.
The Company estimates the value of tenant origination and absorption costs by considering the estimated carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods, considering current market conditions. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods.
The Company amortizes the value of tenant origination and absorption costs to depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining non-cancelable term of each respective lease.
Subsequent to the acquisition of a property, the Company may incur and capitalize costs necessary to get the property ready for its intended use. During that time, certain costs such as legal fees, real estate taxes and insurance and financing costs are also capitalized.
Estimates of the fair values of the tangible assets, identifiable intangibles and assumed liabilities require the Company to make significant assumptions to estimate market lease rates, property-operating expenses, carrying costs during lease-up periods, discount rates, market absorption periods, and the number of years the property will be held for investment.

Impairment of Real Estate and Related Intangible Assets and Liabilities
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable or realized. When indicators of potential impairment suggest that the carrying value of real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable, the Company assesses the recoverability by estimating whether the Company will recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities through its undiscounted future cash flows and its eventual disposition. If, based on this analysis, the Company does not believe that it will be able to recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities, the Company will record an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities. DuringThe Company did 0t record impairment charges on its real estate and related intangible assets during the yearyears ended December 31, 2018, the2019 and 2017. The Company recorded impairment charges in the aggregate on real estate of $14.7 million.million during the year ended December 31, 2018. See note 3, “Real Estate” for a further discussion on the Company’s impairment of real estate. The Company did not record any impairment losses on its real estate and related intangible assets during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.
Projecting future cash flows involves estimating expected future operating income and expenses related to the real estate and its related intangible assets and liabilities as well as market and other trends. Using inappropriate assumptions to estimate cash flows could result in incorrect fair values of the real estate and its related intangible assets and liabilities and could result in the overstatement of the carrying values of the Company’s real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities and an overstatement of its net income.
Insurance Proceeds for Property Damages
The Company maintains an insurance policy that provides coverage for property damages and business interruption. Losses due to physical damages are recognized during the accounting period in which they occur, while the amount of monetary assets to be received from the insurance policy is recognized when receipt of insurance recoveries is probable. Losses, which are reduced by the related probable insurance recoveries, are recorded as casualty-related income/(loss), net on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Anticipated proceeds in excess of recognized losses would be considered a gain contingency and recognized when the contingency related to the insurance claim has been resolved. Anticipated recoveries for lost revenue due to property damages are also considered to be a gain contingency and recognized when the contingency related to the insurance claim has been resolved.

Construction in Progress
Direct investments in development properties without leases in place at the time of acquisition are accounted for as an asset acquisition and not as a business combination. Acquisition fees and expenses are capitalized into the cost basis of an asset acquisition. Additionally, during the time in which the Company is incurring costs necessary to bring these investments to their intended use, certain costs such as legal fees, real estate taxes and insurance and financing costs are also capitalized. Once construction in progress is substantially completed, the amounts capitalized to construction in progress are transferred to land and buildings and improvements and are depreciated over their respective useful lives. 
Real Estate Loans Receivable and Loan Loss Reserves
The Company’s real estate loans receivable are recorded at amortized cost, net of loan loss reserves (if any), and evaluated for impairment at each balance sheet date. The amortized cost of a real estate loan receivable is the outstanding unpaid principal balance, net of unamortized acquisition premiums or discounts and unamortized costs and fees directly associated with the origination or acquisition of the loan. The amount of impairment, if any, will be measured by comparing the amortized cost of the loan to the present value of the expected cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent and collection of principal and interest is not assured. If a loan is deemed to be impaired, the Company will record a loan loss reserve and a provision for loan losses to recognize impairment.
A reserve for loan losses is a valuation allowance that reflects management’s estimate of loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. Reserve for loan losses will be adjusted through “Provision for loan losses” on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and decreased by charge-offs to specific loans when losses are confirmed.
The Company will consider a loan to be impaired when, based upon current information and events, it believes that it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. If the Company purchases a loan at a discount to face value and at the acquisition date the Company expects to collect less than the contractual amounts due under the terms of the loan based, at least in part, on the Company’s assessment of the credit quality of the borrower, the Company will consider such a loan to be impaired when, based upon current information and events, it believes that it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts the Company estimated to be collected at the time of acquisition. The Company will also consider a loan to be impaired if it grants the borrower a concession through a modification of the loan terms or if it expects to receive assets (including equity interests in the borrower) with fair values that are less than the carrying value of the loan in satisfaction of the loan. A reserve will be established when the present value of payments expected to be received, observable market prices, the estimated fair value of the collateral (for loans that are dependent on the collateral for repayment) or amounts expected to be received in satisfaction of a loan are lower than the carrying value of that loan.
On January 12, 2018, the real estate loan receivable was repaid in full. As of December 31, 2017, there was no loan loss reserve and the Company did not record any impairment related to its real estate loan receivable for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016. Failure to recognize impairments would result in the overstatement of earnings and the carrying value of the Company’s real estate loans held for investment. Actual losses, if any, could significantly differ from estimated amounts.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents may include cash and short-term investments. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance exceeded federally insurable limits as of December 31, 2019 and 2018. The Company mitigates this risk by depositing funds with a major financial institution; however, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail or are subject to other adverse conditions in the financial markets.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash is comprised of lender impound reserve accounts on the Company’s borrowings for security deposits, property taxes, insurance, debt service obligations and capital improvements and replacements.

Derivative Instruments
The Company enters into derivative instruments for risk management purposes to hedge its exposure to cash flow variability caused by changing interest rates on its variable rate notes payable. The Company records these derivative instruments at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Derivative instruments 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. The change in fair value of the effective portion of a derivative instrument that is designated as a cash flow hedge is recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) on the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) and consolidated statements of equity. The changes in fair value for derivative instruments that are not designated as a hedge or that do not meet the hedge accounting criteria are recorded as a component of interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk-management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes designating all derivative instruments that are part of a hedging relationship to specific forecasted transactions or recognized obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company also assesses and documents, both at the hedging instrument’s inception and on a quarterly basis thereafter, whether the derivative instruments that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows associated with the respective hedged items. When the Company determines that a derivative instrument ceases to be highly effective as a hedge, or that it is probable the underlying forecasted transaction will not occur, the Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively and reclassifies amounts recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings.
Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, loan fees, legal fees and other third-party costs associated with obtaining financing and are presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability. These costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity unless specific rules are met that would allow for the carryover of such costs to the refinanced debt. Deferred financing costs incurred before an associated debt liability is recognized are included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the balance sheet. Costs incurred in seeking financing transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close.
Fair Value Measurements
Under GAAP, the Company is required to measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, the Company is required to measure other non-financial and financial assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis (e.g., carrying value of impaired real estate loans receivable and long-lived assets). Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;  
Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

PACIFIC OAK STRATEGIC OPPORTUNITY REIT II, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

The Company would classify items as Level 3 in instances where the market for a financial instrument is not active, regardless of the availability of a nonbinding quoted market price, observable inputs might not be relevant and could require the Company to make a significant adjustment to derive a fair value measurement. Additionally, in an inactive market, a market price quoted from an independent third party may rely more on models with inputs based on information available only to that independent third party. When the Company determines that the market for a financial instrument owned by the Company is illiquid or when market transactions for similar instruments do not appear orderly, the Company uses several valuation sources (including internal valuations, discounted cash flow analysis and quoted market prices) and establishes a fair value by assigning weights to the various valuation sources. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach.
Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values. In this regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.
The Company considers the following factors to be indicators of an inactive market: (i) there are few recent transactions, (ii) price quotations are not based on current information, (iii) price quotations vary substantially either over time or among market makers (for example, some brokered markets), (iv) indexes that previously were highly correlated with the fair values of the asset or liability are demonstrably uncorrelated with recent indications of fair value for that asset or liability, (v) there is a significant increase in implied liquidity risk premiums, yields, or performance indicators (such as delinquency rates or loss severities) for observed transactions or quoted prices when compared with the Company’s estimate of expected cash flows, considering all available market data about credit and other nonperformance risk for the asset or liability, (vi) there is a wide bid-ask spread or significant increase in the bid-ask spread, (vii) there is a significant decline or absence of a market for new issuances (that is, a primary market) for the asset or liability or similar assets or liabilities, and (viii) little information is released publicly (for example, a principal-to-principal market).
The Company considers the following factors to be indicators of non-orderly transactions: (i) there was not adequate exposure to the market for a period before the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets or liabilities under current market conditions, (ii) there was a usual and customary marketing period, but the seller marketed the asset or liability to a single market participant, (iii) the seller is in or near bankruptcy or receivership (that is, distressed), or the seller was required to sell to meet regulatory or legal requirements (that is, forced), and (iv) the transaction price is an outlier when compared with other recent transactions for the same or similar assets or liabilities.
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, rent and other receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities: These balances approximate their fair values due to the short maturities of these items.
Real estate equity securities: The Company’s real estate equity securities are presented at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of real estate equity securities were based on a quoted price in an active market on a major stock exchange. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 1 inputs.
Derivative instruments:The Company’s derivative instruments are presented at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The valuation of these instruments are determined using a proprietary model that utilizes observable inputs. As such, the Company classifies these inputs as Level 2 inputs. The proprietary model uses the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and volatility. The fair value of interest rate caps (floors) are determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash payments (receipts) which would occur if variable interest rates rise above (below) the strike rate of the caps (floors). The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected payments (receipts) on the cap (floor) are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate curves and volatilities.

Notes payable: The fair value of the Company’s notes payable are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s estimates of current market interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value ratio, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach.

There are several limitations on the Company’s ability to redeem shares under the Share Redemption Program:
Unless the shares are being redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined under the Share Redemption Program and collectively “Special Redemptions”), the Company may not redeem shares until the stockholder has held the shares for one year.
During each calendar year, the Share Redemption Program limits the number of shares the Company may redeem to those that the Company could purchase with the amount of the net proceeds from the issuance of shares under the dividend reinvestment plan during the prior calendar year. In 2019,2020, the Share Redemption Program also provides that in any calendar year, the last $0.5 million of net proceeds from the dividend reinvestment plan during the prior year is reserved exclusively for shares redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence” with any excess funds being available to redeem shares not requested in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence” during the December redemption date in the current year. The Company may, however, increase or decrease the funding available for the redemption of shares pursuant to the program upon 10 business days’ notice to the stockholders.
During any calendar year, the Company may redeem no more than 5% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year.
The Company has no obligation to redeem shares if the redemption would violate the restrictions on distributions under Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency.
Pursuant to the Share Redemption Program, unless the shares were redeemed in connection with a Special Redemption, the price at which the Company redeemed the shares through the May 2017 redemption date was as follows:
For those shares held by the redeeming stockholder for at least one year, 92.5% of the price paid to acquire the shares from the Company;
For those shares held by the redeeming stockholder for at least two years, 95.0% of the price paid to acquire the shares from the Company;

For purposes of determining the time period a redeeming stockholder has held each share, the time period begins as of the date the stockholder acquired the shares; provided, that shares purchased by the redeeming stockholder pursuant to the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan and shares received as a stock dividend will be deemed to have been acquired on the same date as the initial share to which the dividend reinvestment plan shares or stock dividend shares relate. The date of the share’s original issuance by the Company is not determinative. In addition, as described above, the shares owned by a stockholder may be redeemed at different prices depending on how long the stockholder has held each share submitted for redemption.
On June 6, 2017, the Company established a NAV per share of common stock of $9.05 (unaudited). The estimated value per share became effective for the June 2017 redemption date.
On December 6, 2018, the Company established a NAV per share of common stock of $9.65 (unaudited). The estimated value per share became effective for the December 2018 redemption date.
On December 17, 2019, the Company established a NAV per share of common stock of $10.25 (unaudited). The estimated value per share became effective for the December 2019 redemption date.
Upon a transfer of shares any pending redemption requests with respect to such transferred shares will be canceled as of the date the Company accepts the transfer. Stockholders wishing to continue to have a redemption request related to any transferred shares considered by the Company must resubmit their redemption request.
The board may amend, suspend or terminate the Share Redemption Program upon 10 days’ notice to stockholders, provided that the Company may increase or decrease the funding available for the redemption of shares pursuant to the share redemption program upon 10 business days’ notice.
The Company records amounts that are redeemable under the Share Redemption Program as redeemable common stock in its consolidated balance sheets because the shares are mandatorily redeemable at the option of the holder and therefore their redemption is outside the control of the Company. The maximum amount redeemable under the Company’s Share Redemption Program is limited to the number of shares the Company could redeem with the amount of the net proceeds from the sale of shares under the dividend reinvestment plan during the prior calendar year. However, because the amounts that can be redeemed is determinable and only contingent on an event that is likely to occur (e.g., the passage of time) the Company presents the net proceeds from the current year and prior year dividend reinvestment plan, net of current year redemptions, as redeemable common stock in its consolidated balance sheets.
The Company classifies as liabilities financial instruments that represent a mandatory obligation of the Company to redeem shares. The Company’s redeemable common shares are contingently redeemable at the option of the holder. When the Company determines it has a mandatory obligation to repurchase shares under the Share Redemption Program, it reclassifies such obligations from temporary equity to a liability based upon their respective settlement values.
The Company limits the dollar value of shares that may be redeemed under the program as described above. During the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, the Company redeemed $2.4$3.0 million of common stock. The Company processed all redemption requests received in good order and eligible for redemption through the December 20182019 redemption date, except for 437,842863,378 shares totaling $4.2$8.7 million due to the limitations described above. The Company recorded $3.0$2.2 million of redeemable common stock payable on the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2018,2019, which represents the amount available to be redeemed in 20192020 based on the net proceeds from the sale of shares under of distribution reinvestment plan as of December 31, 2018.2019.

The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, however the functional currency of the unconsolidated entity is the Euro. At the end of each reporting period, before determining the Company’s share of its equity investment, the results of operations of the unconsolidated entity is translated into U.S. dollars using the average currency rates of exchange in effect during the period, and the assets and the liabilities of the unconsolidated entity are translated using the currency exchange rate in effect at the end of the period.

Income Taxes
The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended with its taxable year ended December 31, 2014. To continue to qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of the Company’s annual REIT taxable income to its stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent it distributes qualifying dividends to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially and adversely affect the Company’s net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, the Company intends to organize and operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT.

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases, and for net operating loss, capital loss and tax credit carryforwards. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted income tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be realized or settled. The effect on the deferred tax assets and liabilities from a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings in the period when the new rate is enacted. However, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is more likely than not that they will be realized based on consideration of all available evidence, including the future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, future projected taxable income and tax planning strategies. Valuation allowances are provided if, based upon the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements. Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries have been assessed interest or penalties by any major tax jurisdictions.

Segments
The Company has invested in opportunistic real estate investments, real estate equity securities and originated a loan secured by a non-stabilized real estate asset, which was repaid on January 12, 2018. In general, the Company intends to hold its investments in opportunistic real estate, real estate equity securities and other real estate-related assets for capital appreciation. Traditional performance metrics of opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets may not be meaningful as these investments are generally non-stabilized and do not provide a consistent stream of interest income or rental revenue. These investments exhibit similar long-term financial performance and have similar economic characteristics. These investments typically involve a higher degree of risk and do not provide a constant stream of ongoing cash flows. As a result, the Company’s management views opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets as similar investments. Substantially all of its revenue and net income (loss) is from opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets, and therefore, the Company currently aggregates its operating segments into one reportable business segment. In addition, the Company has invested in a participating loan facility secured by a portfolio of light industrial properties located in Europe. However, based on the Company’s investment portfolio and future investment focus, the Company does not believe that its investment in the European asset is a reportable segment.
Per Share Data
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding for each class of share outstanding during such period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock equals basic net income (loss) per share of common stock as there were no0 potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 2017 and 2016.2017. For the purpose of determining the weighted average number of shares outstanding, stock dividends issued are adjusted retroactively and treated as if they were issued and outstanding for all periods presented.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Updates
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU No. 2016-02”). The amendments in ASU No. 2016-02 change the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 as of its issuance is permitted. ASU No. 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. Upon its adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the package of practical expedients for all leases that commenced before the effective date of January 1, 2019. Accordingly, the Company 1) did not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, 2) did not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing lease, and 3) did not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company did not elect the practical expedient related to using hindsight to reevaluate the lease term. In addition, the Company adopted the practical expedient for land easements and did not assess whether existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under the current lease accounting standards of Topic 840 are or contain a lease under Topic 842.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements (“ASU No. 2018-11”), which provides lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component and, instead to account for those components as a single component if the nonlease components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue recognition standard (Topic 606) and if certain conditions are met. Upon its adoption of the lease accounting standard under Topic 842, the Company adopted this practical expedient, specifically related to its tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance which would otherwise be accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The Company believes the two conditions have been met for tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance as 1) the timing and pattern of transfer of the nonlease components and associated lease components are the same and 2) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease. Accordingly, tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance will be accounted for as rental income on the Company’s statement of operations beginning January 1, 2019. In addition, ASU No. 2018-11, provides an additional optional transition method to allow entities to apply the new lease accounting standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. An entity’s reporting for the comparative periods presented in the financial statements in which it adopts the new lease accounting standard will continue to be reported under the current lease accounting standards of Topic 840. The Company adopted this transition method upon its adoption of the lease accounting standard of Topic 842, which did not result in a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on January 1, 2019.
In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-20, Leases (Topic 842), Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors (“ASU No. 2018-20”), which permits lessors, as an accounting policy election, to not evaluate whether certain sales taxes and other similar taxes are lessor costs or lessee costs and instead to account for these costs as if they were lessee costs. In addition, ASU No. 2018-20 requires lessors to 1) exclude lessor costs paid directly by lessees to third parties on the lessor’s behalf from variable payments and 2) include lessor costs that are reimbursed by the lessee in the measurement of variable lease revenue and the associated expense. The amendments also clarify that lessors are required to allocate the variable payments to the lease and non-lease components and follow the recognition guidance in Topic 842 for the lease component and other applicable guidance, such as ASC 606, for the non-lease component. The Company made the accounting policy election related to sales taxes upon adoption of the lease accounting standard of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019.
The Company created an inventory of its leases where the Company may be a lessee to assess the potential impact to the Company’s financial statements. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had ground leases on two of its properties which were accounted for as capital leases under Topic 840. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an aggregate of $8.6 million capital lease assets and $8.3 million capital lease obligations. Upon adoption of the new lease accounting standard, these ground leases were classified as finance leases and the existing capital lease assets were reclassified as right-of-use assets and existing obligation as lease liabilities as of January 1, 2019. The adoption of the new lease accounting standard did not have a material impact to the Company’s financial statements on January 1, 2019. Beginning January 1, 2019, the Company, as a lessor, will record legal costs incurred to negotiate an operating lease as an expense, classified as operating, maintenance, and management on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations, as these costs are no longer capitalizable under the definition of initial direct costs under Topic 842. In addition, the Company will account for new leases, including modifications of existing leases, entered into on and after January 1, 2019 under the new lease accounting standard under Topic 842 and follow the related presentation and disclosure requirements for reporting periods subsequent to January 1, 2019.

December 31, 2018

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses of Financial Instruments(“ (“ASU No. 2016-13”). ASU No. 2016-13 affects entities holding financial assets and net investments in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The amendments in ASU No. 2016-13 require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. ASU No. 2016-13 also amends the impairment model for available-for-sale securities. An entity will recognize an allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities as a contra-account to the amortized cost basis rather than as a direct reduction of the amortized cost basis of the investment, as is currently required. ASU No. 2016-13 also requires new disclosures. For financial assets measured at amortized cost, an entity will be required to disclose information about how it developed its allowance for credit losses, including changes in the factors that influenced management’s estimate of expected credit losses and the reasons for those changes. For financing receivables and net investments in leases measured at amortized cost, an entity will be required to further disaggregate the information it currently discloses about the credit quality of these assets by year of the asset’s origination for as many as five annual periods. For available for sale securities, an entity will be required to provide a roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses and an aging analysis for securities that are past due. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. During October 2019, the FASB announced that certain entities. including smaller reporting companies, will be allowed additional implementation time with the standard becoming effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is still evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-13 on its financial statements, but does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 to have a material impact on its financial statements.
3.  REAL ESTATE
As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s real estate portfolio was composed of 2 hotel properties, 3 office properties and 1 apartment building. In November 2018,addition, as of December 31, 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, which clarified that receivables from operating leases are not within the scope of Topic 326 and instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 842. 
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820):Disclosure Framework -Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU No. 2018-13”).  The primary focus of ASU 2018-13 is to improve the effectiveness of the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASU No. 2018-13 removes the requirement to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for the timing of transfers between levels and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. It also addsCompany has entered into a requirement to disclose changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and to disclose the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs usedconsolidated joint venture to develop recurring1 office/retail property. The following table summarizes the Company’s real estate as of December 31, 2019 and nonrecurring Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, entities may disclose other quantitative information in lieu2018, respectively (in thousands):

_____________________
(1) See “ – Impairment of the weighted average if the other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop the Level 3 fair value measurement.  In addition, public entities are required to provide information about the measurement uncertainty of recurring Level 3 fair value measurements from the use of significant unobservable inputs if those inputs reasonably could have been different at the reporting date. ASU No. 2018-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities are permitted to early adopt either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify the requirements. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The Company is still evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2018-13 on its financial statements, but does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2018-13 to have a material impact on its financial statements.Real Estate” below.

The Company’s office properties are leased to tenants under operating leases for which the terms and expirations vary. As of December 31, 2018,2019, the leases had remaining terms, excluding options to extend, of up to 9.78.7 years with a weighted-average remaining term of 3.73.3 years. Some of the leases may have provisions to extend the term of the lease, options for early termination for all or a part of the leased premises after paying a specified penalty and other terms and conditions as negotiated. The Company retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to tenants. Generally, upon the execution of a lease, the Company requires a security deposit from the tenant in the form of a cash deposit and/or a letter of credit. The amount required as a security deposit varies depending upon the terms of the respective lease and the creditworthiness of the tenant, but generally is not a significant amount. 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 office tenant leases are included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and totaled $1.3$1.1 million and $1.1$1.3 million as of December 31, 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively.
During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 2017 and 2016,2017, the Company recognized deferred rent from tenants of $0.6 million, $1.4 million $0.8 million and $0.3$0.8 million, respectively, net of lease incentive amortization.

The cumulative deferred rent balance included $0.2 million of unamortized lease incentives as of December 31, 20182019 and 2017.2018.

9.DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
8.  DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company enters into derivative instruments for risk management purposes to hedge its exposure to cash flow variability caused by changing interest rates. The primary goal of the Company’s risk management practices related to interest rate risk is to prevent changes in interest rates from adversely impacting the Company’s ability to achieve its investment return objectives. The Company does not enter into the derivatives for speculative purposes.
Interest Rate Caps
The Company enters into interest rate caps to mitigate its exposure to rising interest rates on its variable rate notes payable. The values of interest rate caps are primarily impacted by interest rates, market expectations about interest rates, and the remaining life of the instrument. In general, increases in interest rates, or anticipated increases in interest rates, will increase the value of interest rate caps. As the remaining life of an interest rate cap decreases, the value of the instrument will generally decrease towards zero.

10.9.  FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES
Under GAAP, the Company is required to measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, the Company is required to measure other non-financial and financial assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis (e.g., carrying value of impaired real estate loans receivable and long-lived assets). Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
The fair value for certain financial instruments is derived using a combination of market quotes, pricing models and other valuation techniques that involve significant management judgment. The price transparency of financial instruments is a key determinant of the degree of judgment involved in determining the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. Financial instruments for which actively quoted prices or pricing parameters are available and for which markets contain orderly transactions will generally have a higher degree of price transparency than financial instruments for which markets are inactive or consist of non-orderly trades. The Company evaluates several factors when determining if a market is inactive or when market transactions are not orderly. The following is a summary of the methods and assumptions used by management in estimating the fair value of each class of assets and liabilities for which it is practicable to estimate the fair value:
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, rent and other receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities: These balances approximate their fair values due to the short maturities of these items.
Real estate equity securities: The Company’s real estate equity securities are presented at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of real estate equity securities were based on a quoted price in an active market on a major stock exchange. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 1 inputs.
Real estate loan receivable: The Company’s real estate loan receivable is presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at its amortized cost net of recorded loan loss reserves (if any) and not at fair value. The fair value of real estate loan receivable was estimated using an internal valuation model that considered the expected cash flows for the loan, underlying collateral value (for collateral-dependent loans) and estimated yield requirements of institutional investors for loans with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs.
Derivative instruments:The Company’s derivative instruments are presented at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The valuation of these instruments are determined using a proprietary model that utilizes observable inputs. As such, the Company classifies these inputs as Level 2 inputs. The proprietary model uses the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and volatility. The fair value of interest rate caps (floors) are determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash payments (receipts) which would occur if variable interest rates rise above (below) the strike rate of the caps (floors). The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected payments (receipts) on the cap (floor) are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate curves and volatilities. The fair value of foreign currency forward contract are valued by comparing the contracted forward exchange rate to the current market exchange rate.

KBS STRATEGIC OPPORTUNITY REIT II, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
December 31, 2018

Notes payable: The fair value of the Company’s notes payable are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s estimates of current market interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value ratio, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs.
The following were the face value, carrying amount and fair value of the Company’s financial instruments as of December 31, 20182019 and 2017,2018, which carrying amounts do not approximate the fair values (in thousands):

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