These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future results of the business and our financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, plans, and objectives. They also include, among other things, statements regarding subjects that are forward-looking by their nature, such as:

~~2019~~ guidance and underlying assumptions;

Any forward-looking statements are based upon management's beliefs, assumptions, and expectations of our future performance, taking into account information that is currently available. These beliefs, assumptions, and expectations may change as a result of possible events or factors, not all of which are known. If a change occurs, our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Actual results may vary from forward-looking statements due to, but not limited to, the following:

the availability and terms of capital;

the ability to refinance or repay indebtedness as it matures;

the failure of purchase, sale, or other contracts to ultimately close;

the failure to achieve anticipated benefits from acquisitions, investments, or dispositions;

the potential dilutive effect of common stock or operating partnership unit issuances;

the availability of buyers and pricing with respect to the disposition of assets;

changes in national and local economic conditions, the real estate industry, and the commercial real estate markets in which we operate, ~~(including supply and demand changes),~~ particularly in Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, ~~Austin,~~ Phoenix, Tampa, and ~~Tampa~~Dallas where we have high concentrations of our lease ~~revenue;~~revenues, including the impact of high unemployment, volatility in the public equity and debt markets, and international economic and other conditions;

the impact of a public health crisis, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and the governmental and third party response to such a crisis, which may affect our key personnel, our major tenants, and the costs of operating our assets;

the impact of social distancing, shelter-in-place, border closings, travel restrictions, remote work requirements, and similar governmental and private measures taken to combat the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and our tenants;

changes to our strategy with regard to land and other non-core holdings that require impairment losses to be recognized;

leasing risks, including the ability to obtain new tenants or renew expiring tenants, the ability to lease newly developed and/or recently acquired space, the failure of a tenant to commence or complete tenant improvements on schedule or to occupy leased space, and the risk of declining leasing rates;

changes in the needs of our tenants brought about by the desire for co-working arrangements, trends toward utilizing less office space per employee, and the effect of telecommuting;

any adverse change in the financial condition of one or more of our ~~major~~ tenants;

volatility in interest rates and insurance rates;

competition from other developers or investors;

the risks associated with real estate developments (such as zoning approval, receipt of required permits, construction delays, cost overruns, and leasing risk);

cyber security breaches;

changes in senior management, changes in the Board of Directors, and the loss of key personnel;

the potential liability for uninsured losses, condemnation, or environmental issues;

the potential liability for a failure to meet regulatory requirements;

the financial condition and liquidity of, or disputes with, joint venture partners;

Table of Contents

any failure to comply with debt covenants under credit agreements;

~~Table of Contents~~

The words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “plans,” “may,” “intend,” “will,” or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe that our plans, intentions, and expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such plans, intentions, or expectations will be achieved. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of future events, new information, or otherwise, except as required under U.S. federal securities laws.

COUSINS PROPERTIES INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, ~~2019~~2020

(Unaudited)

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of Business

: Cousins Properties Incorporated (“Cousins”), a Georgia corporation, is a ~~publicly traded (NYSE: CUZ),~~ self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Cousins conducts substantially all of its operations through Cousins Properties LP ("CPLP"). Cousins owns ~~approximately 98%~~over 99% of CPLP and consolidates CPLP. CPLP owns Cousins TRS Services LLC ("CTRS"), ~~which is wholly owned by CPLP, is~~ a taxable entity which owns and manages its own real estate portfolio and performs certain real estate related services for other parties.

Cousins, CPLP, CTRS, and their subsidiaries ~~are hereinafter referred to collectively as "the Company."~~

~~The Company develops, acquires, leases, manages,~~(collectively, the "Company") develop, acquire, lease, manage, and ~~owns~~own Class A office and mixed-use properties in ~~Sunbelt~~Sun Belt markets with a focus on Georgia, Texas, North Carolina, Arizona, and Florida. Cousins has elected to be taxed as a REIT and intends to, among other things, distribute 100% of its net taxable income to stockholders, thereby eliminating any liability for federal income taxes under current law. Therefore, the results included herein do not include a federal income tax provision for Cousins. As of March 31, 2020, the Company's portfolio of real estate assets consisted of interests in 19.0 million square feet of office space and 310,000 square feet of mixed-use space.

Basis of Presentation

: The condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and were prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary (which adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature) for the fair presentation of the Company's financial position as of March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018.~~2019. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. The accounting policies employed are substantially the same as those shown in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included therein.

On June 14, 2019, the Company restated and amended its articles of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of its common and preferred stock pursuant to which (1) each four shares of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock and preferred stock were combined into one share of the Company's common or preferred stock, respectively, and (2) the authorized number of the Company's common stock was proportionally reduced to 175 million shares. Fractional shares of common stock resulting from the reverse stock split were settled in cash. Fractional shares of preferred stock resulting from the reverse stock split were redeemed without payout. Immediately thereafter, the Company further amended its articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of its common stock from 175 million to 300 million shares. All shares of common stock, preferred stock, stock options, restricted stock units, and per share information presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split on a retroactive basis for all periods presented.

For the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, there were no items of other comprehensive income. Therefore, no presentation of comprehensive income is required. ~~Additionally, certain subtotals within the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were removed to conform to the current period presentation.~~

The Company evaluates all partnerships, joint ventures, and other arrangements with variable interests to determine if the entity or arrangement qualifies as a variable interest entity ("VIE"), as defined in the Financial Accounting Standard Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"). If the entity or arrangement qualifies as a VIE and the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary, the Company is required to consolidate the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the VIE.

~~In the first quarter of 2019,~~ At March 31, 2020, the Company transferred the right to acquire a building to a special purpose entity to facilitate a potential Section 1031 exchange under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the special purpose entity acquired the building. To realize the tax deferral available under Section 1031, the Company must complete the exchange and relinquish title to the to-be-exchanged building within 180 days of the purchase date. The Company has determined that this special purpose entity is a VIE, and the Company is the primary beneficiary. Therefore, the Company consolidates this entity. As of March 31, 2019, this VIE had ~~total assets of $92.3 million,~~ no ~~significant liabilities, and no significant cash flows.~~

~~Recently Issued Accounting Standards~~

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, "Leases," ("ASC 842") which amended the previous standard for lease accounting by requiring lessees to record most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting and reporting. The new standard requires lessees to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for leases and classify such leases as either financeinvestments or operating leases based on the principle of whether the lease is effectively a financed purchase of the leased asset by the lessee. The classification of the leases determines whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method (finance leases) or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease (operating leases). The new standard also revised the treatment of indirect leasing costs and permits the capitalization and

~~Table of Contents~~

~~amortization of direct leasing costs only. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company capitalized $1.2 million of indirect leasing costs.~~

~~The Company adopted the following optional practical expedients provided~~interests in ~~ASC 842:~~

•~~no reassessment of~~ any ~~expired or existing contracts to determine if they contain a lease;~~

•~~no requirement to write-off any unamortized, previously capitalized, initial direct costs for existing leases;~~

•~~no recognition of right-of-use assets for leases with at term of one year or less;~~

~~no requirement to separately classify and disclose non-lease components of revenue in lease contracts from the related lease components provided certain conditions are met; and,~~

~~no requirement to reassess the classification of existing leases as finance leases versus operating leases.~~

For those leases where the Company is lessee, specifically ground leases, the adoption of ASC 842 required the Company to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company recorded right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the amount of $56.3 million upon the adoption of ASC 842. In calculating the right of use asset and lease liability the Company used a weighted average discount rate of 4.49%, which represented the Company's incremental borrowing rate related to the ground lease assets as of January 1, 2019. Ground leases executed before the adoption of ASC 842 are accounted for as operating leases and did not result in a materially different ground lease expense. However, most ground leases executed after the adoption of ASC 842 are expected to be accounted for as finance leases, which will result in ground lease expense being recorded using the effective interest method instead of the straight-line method over the term of the lease, resulting in higher ground lease expense in the earlier years of a ground lease when compared to the straight line method. The Company used the "modified retrospective" method upon adoption of ASC 842, which permitted application of the new standard on the adoption date as opposed to the earliest comparative period presented in its financial statements. For additional disclosures, see note 4 "Leases."

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted, ASU 2017-05, “Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets” (“ASU 2017-05"). As a result of the adoption of ASU 2017-05, the Company recorded a cumulative effect from change in accounting principle, which credited distributions in excess of cumulative net income by $22.3 million. This cumulative effect adjustment resulted from the 2013 transfer of a wholly-owned property to an entity in which it had a noncontrolling interest.VIEs.

2. MERGER WITH TIER REIT, INC.

On June 14, 2019, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 25, 2019 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company and TIER REIT, Inc. (“TIER”) ~~entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”)~~, ~~pursuant to which~~ TIER ~~will merge~~merged with and into a subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”)~~. Pursuant to~~ with this subsidiary continuing as the ~~Merger Agreement, upon~~surviving corporation of the Merger. In accordance with the terms and ~~subject to the~~ conditions of the Merger Agreement, ~~upon closing,~~ each share of TIER common stock issued and outstanding ~~will be~~immediately prior to the Merger, was converted into ~~the right to receive~~ 2.98 newly issued pre-reverse split shares of the Company’s common ~~stock.~~stock with fractional shares being settled in cash. In ~~addition, upon closing, each outstanding award~~the Merger, former TIER common stockholders received approximately 166 million pre-reverse split shares of ~~TIER restricted shares and restricted~~common stock ~~units will become fully vested (in~~of the ~~case of restricted stock units,~~Company. As discussed in note 1 to the extent provided in the TIER equity plan, and in the case of any performance-based restricted stock units, with performance determined to be achieved as set forth in the TIER equity plan) and will convert into newly issued shares of Company common stock on the same basis as other shares of TIER common stock.

The respective boards of directors (the “Board of Directors”) of the Company and TIER have unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and have recommended that their respective stockholders approve their Merger-related propsals. Upon closing, two members of the Board of Directors of TIER, Scott W. Fordham and one additional independent member on the Board of Directors of TIER to be mutually agreed upon by the parties, will be appointed to the Board of Directors of the Company.

The closing of the Merger is subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including: (1) approval of the Merger by TIER stockholders; (2) approval of the issuance of Company common stock by the Company’s stockholders; (3) approval for listing on the New York Stock Exchange of the Company common stock to be issued in the Merger; (4) the absence of an injunction or law prohibiting the Merger; (5) the correctness of all representations and warranties, made by the parties to the Merger Agreement and performance by the parties of their obligations under the Merger Agreement (subject in most cases to materiality or material adverse effect qualifications) and receipt of an officer's certificate from each party attesting thereto; (6) receipt by the Company and by TIER of an opinion to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and of an opinion as to the qualification of the Company and TIER, respectively, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Code; and (7) effectiveness of the registration statement that will contain the joint proxy statement/prospectus sent to Company and TIER stockholders.

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by each party. The Company and TIER have also agreed to various customary covenants and agreements, including, among others, to conduct their business in the ordinary course

~~Table of Contents~~

consistent with past practice during the period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and closing and to maintain REIT status. The Merger Agreement provides that, during the period from the date of the Merger Agreement until closing, TIER will be subject to certain restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative transaction proposals from third parties, to provide non-public information to third parties and to engage in discussions with third parties regarding alternative transaction proposals, subject to customary exceptions.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for the Company and TIER. The Merger Agreement can be terminated by mutual written consent or by either party (1) if there is a final nonappealable order, decree, or ruling permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Merger; (2) if the Merger has not been consummated by 5:00 p.m., New York time, on October 31, 2019; (3) if the Company’s stockholders fail to approve the issuance of Company common stock in connection with the Merger or TIER’s stockholders fail to approve the Merger; or (4) if the other party has breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, or covenants in a way that prevents satisfaction of a closing condition, subject to a cure period. In addition, the Company may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Board of Directors of TIER changes its recommendation with respect to the Merger or upon a willful breach by TIER of its obligations not to solicit alternative transaction proposals. TIER may terminate the Merger Agreement in order to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (subject to compliance with certain terms and conditions included in the Merger Agreement). If the Merger Agreement is terminated because (1) the Board of Directors of TIER changes its recommendation to TIER stockholders with respect to the Merger; (2) TIER terminates the Merger Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal; or (3) TIER consummates or enters into an agreement for an alternative transaction within twelve monthscondensed consolidated financial statements, immediately following termination under certain circumstances, TIER must pay a termination fee of $45.5 million million to the Company. The amount payable to the Company by TIER may also be reduced to the extent necessary to maintain Cousins' qualification as a REIT. Should any amount of the fee be unpaid because of REIT requirements, TIER shall place the unpaid amount of the fee in escrow and shall not release any portion thereof to Cousins unless and until Cousins receives a reasoned opinion from counsel or other tax advisor or a ruling from the IRS providing that Cousins' receipt of the unpaid fee will not impact its qualification as a REIT under the Code. The obligations of TIER to pay any unpaid portion of the fee shall terminate on December 31 following the date which is five years from the date of March 25, 2019. Amounts remaining in escrow after the obligation of TIER to pay the fee terminates shall be released to TIER.

~~In connection with~~ the Merger, the Company ~~has filed an amended registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-230968), declared effective by the SEC on May 8, 2019, that includes~~completed a ~~joint proxy statement of Cousins and TIER that also constitutes a prospectus of the Company.~~1-for-4 reverse stock split.

The Merger has been accounted for as a business combination with the Company as the accounting acquirer, which requires, among other things, that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their acquisition date fair value. The total value of the

3. TRANSACTIONS WITH NORFOLK SOUTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY

On March 1, 2019, the Company entered into a series of agreements and executed related transactions with Norfolk Southern Railway Company (“NS”) as follows:

Sold land to NS for $52.5 million.

Executed a Development Agreement with NS whereby the Company will receive fees totaling $5 million in consideration for development services for NS’s corporate headquarters that ~~will be~~is being constructed on the land sold to NS.

Table of Contents

Executed a Consulting Agreement with NS whereby the Company will receive fees totaling $32 million in consideration for consulting services for NS’s corporate headquarters. The Development Agreement and Consulting Agreement are collectively referred to below as the “Fee Agreements.”

Purchased a building from NS ~~(the “1200 Peachtree Building”~~(“1200 Peachtree”) for $82 million subject to a three-year market rate lease with NS that covers the entire building.

The Company sold the land to NS for $5.0 million above its carrying amount, which included $37.0 million of land purchased in 2018, $6.5 million of land purchased in 2019, and $4.0 million of site preparation work. The Company purchased ~~the~~ 1200 Peachtree ~~Building~~ from NS for an amount it determined to be $10.3 million below the building’s fair value.

~~In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, the~~The Company determined that all contracts and transactions associated with NS ~~with the exception of the aforementioned lease which will be accounted for in accordance with ASC 842,~~ should be combined for accounting purposes, ~~given~~and the ~~fact~~amounts exchanged under the combined contracts should be allocated to the various components of the overall transaction at fair value or market value as discussed below. The Company determined that ~~they were all executed simultaneously~~the purchase of 1200 Peachtree should be recorded at fair value of $92.3 million. The Company determined that the lease with NS at the 1200 Peachtree building was at market value under ASC 842. The land sale was accounted for under ASC 610-20 and 0 gain or loss was recorded on the derecognition of this non-financial asset as the fair value was determined to equal the carrying amount. Consideration related to various services provided to NS, and accounted for under ASC 606, was determined to be $52.3 million and represents the negotiated market value for the ~~single commercial~~services agreed to by the Company and NS in the contracts. This amount included non-cash consideration of the $10.3 million discount on the purchase of 1200 Peachtree as well as cash consideration of $5 million from the land sale contract (difference between fair value and contract amount), $5 million from the Development Agreement, and $32 million from the Consulting Agreement. Since all of the agreements and contracts above were executed for the purpose of delivering and constructing a corporate headquarters for NS and all of the ~~contracts~~services and deliverables are highly interdependent, ~~and would not have been entered into separately. Further,~~ the Company ~~concluded~~determined that the ~~Fee Agreements have~~services represent a single performance obligation under ASC 606.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~obligation to provide services to NS for a new corporate headquarters as the services being provided to NS are highly interdependent.~~ The transaction price for the Fee Agreements was determined to be comprised of both cash and non-cash consideration associated with this arrangement. The cash consideration represents the amounts to be received under the Fee Agreements as well as the excess of the sales price of the land over the fair value of the land. The non-cash consideration represents the $10.3 million excess of the fair value of the 1200 Peachtree Building over the amount the Company paid. The gross transaction price for the Fee Agreements was $52.3 million.

~~In accordance with ASC 606, the~~ Company determined that control of the services to be provided ~~under the Fee Agreements~~ is being transferred over time and, thus, the Company must recognize the ~~transaction~~$52.3 million contract price in revenue as it satisfies the performance obligation. The Company determined that the inputs method of measuring progress of satisfying the performance obligation was the most appropriate method of recognizing revenue for the ~~Fee Agreements.~~services component. Therefore, the Company ~~recognized~~began recognizing revenue in the quarter ended March 31, 2019, and will recognize future revenue ~~under the Fee Agreements~~ based upon the time spent by the Company’s employees in providing these services as compared to the total estimated time required to satisfy the performance obligation. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $3.7 million and $6.6 million, respectively, in fee income in its condensed consolidated statements of operations related to the ~~Fee Agreements.~~

~~The following table summarizes the allocations~~services provided to NS. As of ~~the estimated fair value of the assets~~March 31, 2020 and ~~liabilities of the 1200 Peachtree Building discussed above (in thousands):~~

4. REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS

During March 2020, the Company sold Hearst Tower, a 966,000 square foot office building in Charlotte, North Carolina that was included in the Company's Charlotte/Office operating ~~ground leases~~segment, for a gross purchase price of $455.5 million. This transaction was triggered by the exercise of a purchase option by the building's primary lessee. The Company recognized a gain of $90.9 million on the sale of Hearst Tower.

During February 2020, as part of the Company's strategy in regards to disposal of non-core assets, the Company sold Woodcrest, a 386,000 square foot office property in Cherry Hill, New Jersey that was included in the Company's Other/Office operating segment, for a gross purchase price of $25.3 million. The Company acquired Woodcrest in the Merger with ~~a weighted average remaining term~~TIER and did not record any gain or loss on the sale of ~~74 years and two finance ground leases with a weighted average remaining term of five years. At March 31,~~Woodcrest.

During February 2019, the Company ~~had right-of-use assets~~sold air rights that cover 8 acres in Downtown Atlanta for a gross sales price of ~~$68.1~~$13.3 million ~~included in operating properties, projects under development, or land on the condensed consolidated balance sheets~~ and recorded a ~~lease liability~~gain of $68.0 million included in other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The weighted average discount rate at March 31, 2019 was 4.50%, which represents the Company's incremental borrowing rate related to the ground lease assets.$13.1 million.

Rental payments on these ground leases are adjusted periodically based on either the Consumer Price Index, changes in developed square feet on the underlying leased asset, or on a pre-determined schedule. The monthly payments on a pre-determined schedule are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases while payments resulting from changes in the Consumer Price Index or future development are not estimated as part of our measurement of straight-line rental expense.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recognized $839,000 of operating ground lease expense, of which no amounts represented variable lease expenses, and $116,000 of interest expense related to finance ground leases. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, $393,000 was paid in cash for operating ground leases and no cash payments were made for financing ground leases. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, the future minimum payments to be made by consolidated entities for ground leases are as follows (in thousands):

(1) Negative ~~balances~~bases are included in deferred income on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In March 2020, the Company sold its interest in Charlotte Gateway Village, LLC ("Gateway"), which owned a 1.1 million square foot office building in Charlotte, North Carolina, to its partner for a gross purchase price of $52.2 million. The sale was triggered by the exercise of the partner's purchase option and the proceeds from this sale represent a 17% internal rate of return for the Company on its invested capital, as stipulated in the partnership agreement. The Company recognized a gain of $44.9 million on the sale of its interest in Gateway.

In February 2020, as part of its strategy in regards to disposal of non-core assets, the Company sold its remaining interest in the Wildwood Associates joint venture, which owned a 6.3 acre parcel of land in Atlanta, to its venture partner for a gross purchase price of $900,000. The Company recognized a gain of $1.3 million on the sale of its interest in Wildwood Associates, which included elimination of the remaining negative basis in the joint venture of $520,000.

13In April 2020, the Carolina Square Holdings LP joint venture executed an amendment for its associated construction loan, extending the maturity date from May 2020 to May 2021 and reducing the spread over LIBOR from 1.90% to 1.25%.

Table of Contents

The interest rate applicable to the Credit Facility varies according to the Company's leverage ratio, and may, at the election of the Company, be determined based on either (1) the current ~~LIBOR~~London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") plus a spread of between 1.05% and 1.45%, or (2) the greater of Bank of America's prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, or the one-month LIBOR plus 1.0% (the "Base Rate"), plus a spread of between 0.10% or 0.45%, based on leverage.

At March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Credit Facility's spread over LIBOR was 1.05%. The amount that the Company may draw under the Credit Facility is a defined calculation based on the Company's unencumbered assets and other factors.

The estimate of the current market rate, which is the most significant input in the discounted cash flow calculation, is intended to replicate debt of similar maturity and loan-to-value relationship. These fair value calculations are considered to be Level 2 under the guidelines as set forth in ASC 820 as the Company utilizes market rates for similar type loans from third party brokers.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ interest expense was recorded as follows (in thousands):

Litigation

On May 1, 2019, a purported TIER stockholder filed a putative stockholder class action against TIER and the members of the TIER board of directors challenging the disclosures made in connection with the Merger. The lawsuit is captioned ~~Martin v. TIER REIT, INC., et al., No. 1:19-CV-01292, and is pending in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland. On~~

~~Table of Contents~~

May 3, 2019, a purported TIER stockholder filed a putative stockholder class action against TIER, the members of the TIER board of directors, and the Company also challenging the disclosures made in connection with the Merger. The lawsuit is captioned ~~Franchi v. TIER REIT, Inc. et al.~~, No. 1:19-CV-01310, and is also pending in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland. The complaints generally allege that the registration statement filed in connection with the Merger of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus forms a part fails to disclose certain allegedly material information in violation of Section 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder. The alleged omissions relate to (i) the existence of certain provisions in confidentiality agreements entered into between TIER and alternative bidders during the strategic sales process; (ii) certain financial projections and GAAP reconciliations for TIER and the Company; and (iii) certain financial analyses performed by TIER's financial advisor. Plaintiffs seek to enjoin the Defendants from proceeding with the Merger and seek damages in the event the transaction is consummated. TIER and the Company are reviewing the complaints and have not yet formally responded to them, but believe that Plaintiffs' allegations are without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously. However, litigation is inherently uncertain and there can be no assurance regarding the likelihood that TIER's and the Company's defense of the actions will be successful. Accordingly, at this time, the Company is not able to determine if the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the liquidity, results of operations, business, or financial condition of the Company. Additional lawsuits arising out of the Merger may also be filed in the future.

The Company is subject to various ~~other~~ legal proceedings, claims, and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which are expected to be covered by liability insurance. Management makes assumptions and estimates concerning the likelihood and amount of any potential loss relating to these matters using the latest information available. The Company records a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is probable and a reasonable estimate of the loss is a range, the Company accrues the best estimate within the range. If no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the Company accrues the minimum amount within the range. If an unfavorable outcome is probable but the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the nature of the litigation and indicates that an estimate of the loss or range of loss cannot be made. If an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and the estimated loss is material, the Company discloses the nature and estimate of the possible loss of the litigation. The Company does not disclose information with respect to litigation where an unfavorable outcome is considered to be remote or where the estimated loss would not be material. Based on current expectations, such matters, both individually and in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the liquidity, results of operations, business, or financial condition of the Company.

While the results of our current analysis did not result in any impairments or material valuation adjustments to amounts due from tenants as of March 31, 2020, circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic may result in recording impairments or material valuation adjustments to amounts due from tenants in future periods.

While the Company has not been obligated contractually or by law to provide its tenants with rent relief related to COVID-19, it will recognize any associated rent reductions in the period during which those obligations occur. Otherwise any COVID-19 related changes in negotiated rents or leasing terms will be accounted for as lease modifications and the Company will recognize the effects over time.

11. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company issued 1.7 million shares of common stock in connection with the redemption of 1.7 million limited partnership units in CPLP. Each of the redeemed limited partnership units in CPLP was "paired" with a share of limited voting preferred stock with a par value of $1 per share. The shares of limited voting preferred stock were automatically redeemed by Cousins without consideration when their paired limited partnership unit in CPLP was redeemed. Holders of limited voting preferred stock are entitled to one vote on the following matters only: the election of directors, any proposed amendment of the Company's Articles of Incorporation, any merger or other business combination of the Company, any sale of substantially all of the Company's assets, and any liquidation of the Company. Holders of limited voting preferred stock are not entitled to any dividends or distributions and the limited voting preferred stock is not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Company.

Restricted stock and the 2020 RSUs are equity-classified awards for which the compensation expense per share is fixed. The 2018 and 2019 RSUs are liability-classified awards for which the expense ~~related to other stock-based compensation awards~~ fluctuates from period to period dependent, in part, on both the Company's stock price and on the Company's stock performance relative to its peers. ~~The Company recorded~~For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, stock-based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, ~~of $5.5 million and $2.6 million for~~was recorded as follows (in thousands):

The ~~performance~~measurement period for both awards is January 1, ~~2019~~2020 to December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and the targeted units awarded of ~~TSR~~Market-based RSUs and ~~FFO~~Performance-based RSUs was ~~260,988~~71,038 and ~~111,853,~~30,447, respectively. The ultimate ~~payout~~settlement of these awards can range from 0% to 200% of the targeted number of units depending on the achievement of the market and performance metrics described above. These RSU awards cliff vest on December 31, ~~2021~~2022 and are to be settled in ~~cash~~the Company’s common stock with ~~payment~~settlement dependent on attainment of required service, market, and performance criteria. The number of RSUs vesting will be determined by the Compensation ~~Committee, and the payout per unit will be equal to the average closing price on each trading day during the 30-day period ending on December 31, 2021.~~Committee. The Company expenses an estimate of the fair value of the ~~TSR~~Market-based RSUs, calculated using a Monte Carlo valuation at grant date, ratably over the ~~performance~~vesting period, ~~using a quarterly Monte Carlo valuation.~~adjusting for forfeitures when they occur. The ~~FFO~~Performance-based RSUs are expensed over the vesting period ~~using the fair market value of the Company's stock at the reporting date multiplied by the anticipated number of units to be paid~~ based on the ~~current estimate~~Company’s share price on the grant date. The expense is recognized ratably over the vesting period and adjusted each quarter based on the number of ~~what the ratio is~~shares expected to ~~be upon vesting.~~vest and for forfeitures when they occur.

~~15.~~ 16. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS

The Company's segments are based on its method of internal reporting, which classifies operations by property type and geographical area. The segments by property type are: Office and Mixed-Use. The segments by geographical region are: Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, Dallas, Phoenix, Tampa, and Other. Included in Other is a property in Cherry Hill, New Jersey that was sold in February 2020 and properties located in Chapel Hill, Fort Worth, and Houston. These reportable segments represent an aggregation of operating segments reported to the Chief Operating Decision Maker based on similar economic characteristics that include the type of property and the geographical location. Each segment includes both consolidated operations and the Company's share of unconsolidated joint venture operations.

Company management evaluates the performance of its reportable segments in part based on net operating income (“NOI”). NOI represents rental property revenues, less termination fees, less rental property operating expenses. NOI is not a measure of cash flows or operating results as measured by GAAP, is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, and should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. All companies may not calculate NOI in the same manner. The Company considers NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income as it helps both management and investors understand the core operations of the Company's operating assets. NOI excludes corporate general and administrative expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, impairments, gains/loss on sales of real estate, and other non-operating items.

Segment net income, amount of capital expenditures, and total assets are not presented in the following tables because management does not utilize these measures when analyzing its segments or when making resource allocation decisions. Information on the Company's segments along with a reconciliation of NOI to net income for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 are as follows (in thousands):

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

Overview:

Cousins Properties Incorporated ("Cousins") (and collectively, with its subsidiaries, the "Company," "we," "our," or "us") is a publicly traded (NYSE: CUZ), self-administered, and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT. Cousins conducts substantially all of its business through Cousins Properties, LP ("CPLP"). Cousins owns ~~approximately 98%~~over 99% of CPLP and consolidates CPLP. CPLP owns Cousins TSR Services LLC, a taxable entity which owns and manages its own real estate portfolio and performs certain real estate related services for other parties. Our strategy is to create value for our stockholders through ownership of the premier urban office portfolio in the ~~Sunbelt~~Sun Belt markets, with a particular focus on Georgia, Texas, North Carolina, Arizona, and Florida. This strategy is based on a disciplined approach to capital allocation that includes strategic acquisitions, selective development projects, and timely dispositions of non-core assets. This strategy is also based on a simple, flexible, and low-leveraged balance sheet that allows us to pursue investment opportunities at the most advantageous points in the cycle. To implement this strategy, we leverage our strong local operating platforms within each of our major markets. As of March 31, 2019, our portfolio of real estate assets consisted of interests in 29 operating properties (28 office and one mixed use), containing 16.0 million square feet of space, and three projects (two office and one mixed-use) under active development.

We leased or renewed 682,129 square feet of office space during the first quarter of 2019. The weighted average net effective rent of these leases, representing base rent less operating expense reimbursements and leasing costs, was $24.50 per square foot. For those leases that were previously occupied within the past year, net effective rent increased 22.8%. Same property net operating income (defined below) for consolidated properties and our share of unconsolidated properties increased by 4.3% between the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

~~On March 1,~~Consistent with this strategy, on June 14, 2019, we entered into a series of transactions with Norfolk Southern Railway Company ("NS") whereby we executed a development agreement to develop NS's corporate headquarters in Midtown Atlanta and purchased 1200 Peachtree, a 370,000 square foot office building in Midtown Atlanta, from NS that is 100% leased by NS through December 31, 2021. In the first quarter of 2019, we recognized $6.6 million in fee income related to this arrangement.

~~On March 25, 2019, we entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger Agreement")~~merged with TIER REIT, Inc. ("TIER") ~~whereby~~in a stock-for-stock transaction (the "Merger"). As a result, we acquired interests in nine operating properties containing 5.8 million square feet of space, two office properties under development that are expected to add 620,000 square feet of space upon completion, and seven strategically located land parcels on which up to 2 million square feet of additional space may be developed. As a part of this transaction, we issued $650 million in senior unsecured debt at a weighted average interest rate of 3.88%, which effectively replaced the majority of the TIER ~~will merge with and into a subsidiary of Cousins.~~debt assumed in the Merger. We believe that this merger creates a company with an attractive portfolio of trophy office assets balanced across the premier Sun Belt markets. We believe that the Merger will enhance our position in our existing markets of Austin and Charlotte, provide a strategic entry into Dallas, and balance our exposure in Atlanta. The Merger is also expected to enhance growth and to provide value-add opportunities as ~~TIER has an~~a result of TIER's active and attractive development portfolio and land bank. ~~Upon closing, we expect to have a~~As of March 31, 2020, our portfolio of ~~over 21~~real estate assets consisted of interests in 35 operating properties (34 office and one mixed-use), containing 19.4 million square feet of space, and six projects (five office and one mixed-use) under active development.

During the first quarter of 2020 we completed sales of three operating office properties. We sold Hearst Tower, a 966,000 square foot office building in ~~premier Sunbelt markets. For additional information about~~Charlotte, North Carolina for gross proceeds of $455.5 million, recognizing a gain of $90.9 million on the sale. We sold our interest in Charlotte Gateway Village, LLC, which owned a 1.1 million square foot office building in Charlotte, North Carolina, to our venture partner for a gross purchase price of $52.2 million, recognizing a gain of $44.9 million on the sale. We sold Woodcrest, a non-strategic asset in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, for $25.3 million. We acquired Woodcrest in the Merger ~~see "Liquidity~~with TIER and ~~Capital Resources -- Merger~~did not record any gain or loss on its sale.

During the quarter, we leased or renewed 476,000 square feet of office space. The weighted average net effective rent of these leases, representing base rent less operating expense reimbursements and leasing costs, was $25.01 per square foot. For those leases that were previously occupied within the past year, net effective rent increased 26.9%. Same property net operating income (defined below) for consolidated properties and our share of unconsolidated properties increased by 3.2% between the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

On June 14, 2019, we restated and amended our articles of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of its common stock pursuant to which, (1) each four shares of our issued and outstanding common stock and preferred stock were combined into one share of our common stock or preferred stock, as applicable, and (2) the authorized number of our common stock was proportionally reduced to 175 million shares. Fractional shares of common stock resulting from the reverse stock split were settled in cash. Fractional shares of preferred stock resulting from the reverse stock split were redeemed without payout. Immediately thereafter, we further amended our articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 175 million to 300 million shares.

On a regular basis we review and, as appropriate, revise our corporate contingency plan, which addresses the steps necessary to respond to an unexpected interruption of business, including the unavailability of our corporate office space. In light of the increasing reports regarding the threat presented by COVID-19, and in accordance with ~~TIER."~~the advice of the CDC, we confirmed our readiness to adjust to teleworking if appropriate. Throughout the month of March, our tenants widely adopted teleworking for their office employees, as we increased our janitorial cleaning protocols in our buildings. The rental obligations under our space leases have not been materially affected by the COVID-19 pandemic to date, and any requests for rent adjustments are addressed on a case-by-case basis. We also have worked closely with essential vendors, including the contractors and others involved in our development projects, to assess potential impact of appropriate and necessary distancing measures upon our operations and our development delivery timelines.

Although the impact to our business of the COVID-19 pandemic has not been severe to date, the long-term impact of the pandemic on our tenants and the world-wide economy is uncertain and will depend on the scope, severity, and duration of the pandemic. A prolonged

economic downturn resulting from the pandemic could adversely affect many of our tenants, which could, in turn, adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Results of Operations

General

Our financial results have been significantly affected by the Merger. In addition, our results have been affected by a series of transactions we entered into on March 1, 2019 with Norfolk Southern Railway Company ("NS") whereby we executed an agreement to develop NS's corporate headquarters in Midtown Atlanta and purchased 1200 Peachtree, a 370,000 square foot office building in Midtown Atlanta, from NS that is 100% leased by NS. Accordingly, our historical financial statements may not be indicative of future operating results.

Rental Property Revenue, Rental Property Operating Expenses, and Net Operating Income

The following table summarizes rental property revenues, rental property operating expenses, and net operating income ("NOI") for each of the periods presented, including our same property portfolio. NOI represents rental property revenue (excluding lease termination fees) less rental property operating expenses. Our same property portfolio is comprised of office properties that have been fully operational in each of the comparable reporting periods. A fully operational property is one that has achieved 90% economic occupancy or has been substantially ~~complete~~completed and owned by us for each of the periods presented. This information is presented for consolidated properties only and does not include net operating income from our unconsolidated joint ventures.

Other income from unconsolidated joint ventures decreased $311,000 (89%) between the three month periods primarily due to the 2018 sale of a parcel of land held by the Wildwood Associates joint venture.October 2019 when we purchased our partner's interest in TOH.

The gain on ~~the sale~~sales of ~~investment properties~~investments in unconsolidated joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019 relates to~~2020 includes the sale of our interests in the ~~Company's air rights that cover approximately eight acres within an area~~Wildwood Associates and Gateway Village joint ventures. The capitalization rate of ~~Downtown Atlanta.~~Gateway Village was not a determinant of the sales price as, per the joint venture agreement, our interest was valued at a 17% internal rate of return on our invested capital. There was no capitalization rate associated with the sale of our interest in the Wildwood Associates joint venture as the underlying asset was land.

Gain on Investment Property Transactions

The gain on investment property transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes the sale of Hearst Tower. The combined sales prices of the Hearst Tower and Woodcrest dispositions represented a weighted average capitalization rate of 5.1%. Capitalization rates are calculated by dividing projected annualized NOI by the sales price.

Funds From Operations

The table below shows Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and the related reconciliation to net income available to common stockholders. We calculate FFO in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ (“NAREIT”) definition, which is net

Table of Contents

income available to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding extraordinary items, cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, and gains on sale or impairment losses on depreciable property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures to reflect FFO on the same basis.

FFO is used by industry analysts and investors as a supplemental measure of a REIT’s operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance that excludes historical cost depreciation, among other items, from GAAP net income. The use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, has been fundamentally beneficial, improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and

~~Table of Contents~~

making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Company management evaluates operating performance in part based on FFO. Additionally, we use FFO, along with other measures, to assess performance in connection with evaluating and granting incentive compensation to its officers and other key employees. The reconciliation of net income to FFO is as follows for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 (in thousands, except per share information):

Net Operating Income

Company management evaluates the performance of its property portfolio in part based on NOI. NOI represents rental property revenues, less termination fees, less rental property operating expenses. NOI is not a measure of cash flows or operating results as measured by GAAP, is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, and should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. All companies may not calculate NOI in the same manner. The Company considers NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income as it helps both management and investors understand the core operations of the Company's operating assets. NOI excludes corporate general and administrative expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, impairments, gains/loss on sales of real estate, and other non-operating items.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary short-term and long-term liquidity needs include the following:

property and land acquisitions;

expenditures on development projects;

building improvements, tenant improvements, and leasing costs;

principal and interest payments on indebtedness; and

common stock ~~dividends and distributions to outside unitholders of CPLP.~~dividends.

We may satisfy these needs with one or more of the following:

cash and cash equivalents on hand;

net cash from operations;

proceeds from the sale of assets;

borrowings under our credit facility;

proceeds from mortgage notes payable;

proceeds from construction loans;

proceeds from unsecured loans;

proceeds from offerings of equity securities; and

joint venture formations.

As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we had ~~$56.4 million drawn~~available to us the entire $1.0 billion borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility ~~with~~and $124.6 million of cash and cash equivalents. While we expect to have sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations for the ~~ability to borrow an additional $943.6 million.~~foreseeable future, the COVID-19 outbreak and associated responses could adversely impact our future cash flows and financial condition.

~~Merger with TIER~~

On March 25, 2019, we entered into the Merger Agreement with TIER, pursuant to which TIER will merge with and into one of our subsidiaries (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, upon closing, each share of TIER common stock issued and outstanding will be converted into the right to receive 2.98 newly issued shares of our common stock. In addition, upon closing, each outstanding award of TIER restricted shares and restricted stock units will become fully vested (in the case of restricted stock units, to the extent provided in the TIER equity plan, and in the case of any performance-based restricted stock units, with performance determined to be achieved as set forth in the TIER equity plan) and will convert into newly issued shares of our common stock on the same basis as other shares of TIER common stock.

The respective boards of directors (the “Board of Directors”) have unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and have recommended that their respective stockholders approve their Merger-related proposals. Upon closing, two members of the Board of Directors of TIER, Scott W. Fordham and one additional independent member on the Board of Directors of TIER to be mutually agreed upon by the parties, will be appointed to our Board of Directors.

The closing of the Merger is subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including: (1) approval of the Merger by TIER stockholders; (2) approval of the issuance of our common stock by our stockholders; (3) approval for listing on the New York Stock Exchange of our common stock to be issued in the Merger; (4) the absence of an injunction or law prohibiting the MErger; (5) the correctness of all representations and warranties made by the parties to the Merger Agreement and performance by the parties of their obligations under the Merger Agreement (subject in most cases to materiality or material adverse effect qualifications), and receipt of an officer's certificate from each party attesting thereto; (6) receipt by us and by TIER of an opinion to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and of an opinion as to the qualification of us and TIER, respectively, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Code; and (7) effectiveness of the registration statement that will contain the joint proxy statement/prospectus sent to our stockholders and TIER stockholders.

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by each party. Both companies have also agreed to various customary covenants and agreements, including, among others, to conduct their business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice during the period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and closing and to maintain REIT status. The Merger Agreement provides that, during the period from the date of the Merger Agreement until closing, TIER will be subject to certain restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative transaction proposals from third parties, to provide non-public information to third parties and to engage in discussions with third parties regarding alternative transaction proposals, subject to customary exceptions.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both companies. The Merger Agreement can be terminated by mutual written consent or by either party (1) if there is a final nonappealable order, decree, or ruling permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Merger; (2) if the Merger has not been consummated by 5:00 p.m., New York time, on October 31, 2019; (3) if our stockholders fail to approve the issuance of our common stock in connection with the Merger or

2324

Table of Contents

TIER’s stockholders fail to approve the Merger; or (4) if the other party has breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, or covenants in a way that prevents satisfaction of a closing condition, subject to a cure period. In addition, we may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Board of Directors of TIER changes its recommendation with respect to the Merger or upon a willful breach by TIER of its obligations not to solicit alternative transaction proposals. TIER may terminate the Merger Agreement in order to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (subject to compliance with certain terms and conditions included in the Merger Agreement). If the Merger Agreement is terminated because (1) the Board of Directors of TIER changes its recommendation with respect to the Merger; (2) TIER terminates the Merger Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal; or (3) TIER consummates or enters into an agreement for an alternative transaction within twelve months following termination under certain circumstances, TIER must pay a termination fee of $45.5 million to Cousins. The amount payable to Cousins by TIER may also be reduced to the extent necessary to maintain Cousins' qualification as a REIT. should any amount of the fee be unpaid because of REIT requirements, TIER shall place the unpaid amount of the fee in escrow and shall not release any portion thereof to Cousins unless and until Cousins receives a reasoned opinion from counsel or other tax advisor or a ruling from the IRS providing that Cousins; receipt of the unpaid fee will not impact its qualification as a REIT under the Code. The obligations of TIER to pay any unpaid portion of the fee shall terminate on December 31 following the date which is five years from the date of March 25, 2019. Amounts remaining in escrow after the obligation of TIER to pay the fee terminates shall be released to TIER.

In connection with the Merger, we have filed an amended registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-230968), declared effective by the SEC on May 8, 2019, that includes a joint proxy statement of Cousins and TIER that also constitutes a prospectus of Cousins.

~~The Merger is currently anticipated to close in the second quarter of 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we incurred no material merger-related expenses.~~

Two putative stockholder class action lawsuits have been filed by purported TIER stockholders challenging the disclosures made in connection with the Merger. The lawsuits seek to enjoin the Merger, to recover damages if the Merger is consummated, attorney's fees, and other relief. Additional lawsuits arising out of the Merger may be filed in the future. For a more detailed description of litigation in connection with the Merger, see note 9 to the financial statements.

In addition, we have several standing or renewable service contracts mainly related to the operation of buildings. These contracts are in the ordinary course of business and are generally one year or less. These contracts are not included in the above table and are usually reimbursed in whole or in part by tenants.

Other Debt Information

Our existing mortgage debt is primarily non-recourse, fixed-rate mortgage notes secured by various real estate assets. Many of our non-recourse mortgages contain covenants which, if not satisfied, could result in acceleration of the maturity of the debt. We expect to either refinance the non-recourse mortgages at maturity or repay the mortgages with proceeds from asset sales, debt, or other capital sources.

~~Over 75%~~85% of our debt bears interest at a fixed rate. Our variable-interest debt instruments, including our Credit Facility and $250 million term loan, may use London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") as a benchmark for establishing the rate. LIBOR is the subject of recent regulatory guidance and proposals for ~~reform.~~reform and in July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. These reforms may cause LIBOR to no longer be provided or to perform differently than in the past. If LIBOR is no longer widely available, or otherwise at our option, our variable-interest debt instruments, including our Credit Facility and term loan facilities, provide for alternate interest rate calculations. ~~For additional information, please refer~~

There can be no assurances as to ~~Item 3, "Quantitative~~what alternative interest rates may be and ~~Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk", for additional information~~whether such interest rates will be more or less favorable than LIBOR and any other unforeseen impacts of the potential discontinuation of LIBOR. The Company intends to continue monitoring the developments with respect to the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021 and work with its lenders to ensure any transition away from LIBOR will have minimal impact on its financial condition, but can provide no assurances regarding ~~interest rate risk.~~

the impact of the discontinuation of LIBOR.

Future Capital Requirements

To meet capital requirements for future investment activities over the long term, we intend to actively manage our portfolio of properties, generating internal cash flows, and strategically sell assets. We expect to continue to utilize indebtedness to fund future commitments, if available and under appropriate terms. We may also seek equity capital and capital from joint venture partners to implement our strategy.

Our business model is dependent upon raising or recycling capital to meet obligations and to fund development and acquisition activity. If one or more sources of capital are not available when required, we may be forced to reduce the number of projects we acquire

Table of Contents

or develop and/or raise capital on potentially unfavorable terms, or we may be unable to raise capital, which could have an adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Cash Flows Summary

We report and analyze our cash flows based on operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. The following table sets forth the changes in cash flows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,								Three Months Ended March 31,
	2019			2018			Change		2020			2019			Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	44,501		$	20,906		$	23,595	$	12,964		$	44,501		$	(31,537	)
Net cash used in investing activities	(70,698		)	(82,813		)	12,115
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities									417,784			(70,698		)	488,482
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities	27,128			(34,501		)	61,629		(321,777		)	27,128			(348,905		)

The reasons for significant increases and decreases in cash flows between the periods are as follows:

Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Cash flows from operating activities ~~increased $23.6~~decreased $31.5 million between the ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 three month periods primarily due to ~~2019 development fees~~a larger decrease in operating liabilities, specifically accrued property taxes and accrued interest, in 2020. This is partially offset by an increase in net cash received ~~related to the NS transactions; increased occupancy rates at Northpark, Corporate Center, 111 Congress, and 816 Congress; and the commencement~~from operations of ~~operations at the second and final phase of Spring & 8th~~properties acquired in the ~~fourth quarter~~Merger in June 2019, of ~~2018 and at~~ 1200 Peachtree, which was acquired in March 2019, and of Terminus, which was consolidated in the ~~first quarter of 2019.~~October 2019 when we purchased our partner's interest in TOH.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Cash flows from investing activities increased ~~$12.1~~$488.5 million between the ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 three month periods primarily due to ~~an increase~~cash received from the sales of the Hearst Tower and Woodcrest operating properties, combined with the sales of our interests in ~~proceeds from investment property sales~~the Gateway Village and ~~a decrease in contributions to unconsolidated~~Wildwood Associates joint ~~ventures partially offset by an increase in acquisition and development expenses.~~ventures.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Cash flows from financing activities ~~increased $61.6~~decreased $348.9 million between the ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 three month periods primarily due to ~~an increase~~a decrease in net borrowings ~~under the credit facility.~~on our Credit Facility in 2020, which has no outstanding balance as of March 31, 2020.

Capital Expenditures. We incur costs related to our real estate assets that include acquisition of properties, development of new properties, redevelopment of existing or newly purchased properties, leasing costs for new or replacement tenants, and ongoing property repairs and maintenance.

Capital expenditures for assets we develop or acquire and then hold and operate are included in the property acquisition, development, and tenant asset expenditures line item within investing activities on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Amounts accrued are removed from the table below (accrued capital adjustment) to show the components of these costs on a cash basis. Components of costs included in this line item for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 are as follows (in thousands):

Total property acquisition, development, and tenant asset expenditures	$	122,785	$	60,175	$	67,042	$	122,785

Capital expenditures ~~including capitalized interest, increased $62.6~~decreased $55.7 million between the ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 three month periods primarily due to the purchase of 1200 Peachtree and the purchase of land in the first quarter of 2019. This is partially offset by ~~a decrease~~increases in spending for projects under development, tenant improvements, and leasing ~~costs~~commissions and ~~accrued capital expenditures.~~by increased capitalized interest related to the Domain development projects. Tenant improvements and leasing costs, as well as related capitalized personnel costs, are a function of the number and size of newly executed leases or renewals of existing leases. The amounts of tenant improvement and leasing costs for our office portfolio on a per square foot basis for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 were as follows:

Table of Contents


	2019	2018	2020	2019
New leases	$1.82	$6.83	$12.33	$1.82
Renewal leases	$4.74	$5.40	$6.58	$4.74
Expansion leases	$7.29	$7.16	$8.28	$7.29

The amounts of tenant improvement and leasing costs on a per square foot basis vary by lease and by market. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company executed a new full-building lease at 1200 Peachtree with ~~Southern~~NS that had lower than average tenant improvement and leasing costs.

Dividends. We paid common dividends of ~~$27.3~~$42.6 million and ~~$25.2~~$27.3 million in the ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 three month periods, respectively. ~~We funded the common dividends with cash on hand and cash provided by operating activities.~~ We expect to fund our future quarterly common dividends with cash provided by operating activities, also using proceeds from investment property sales, distributions from unconsolidated joint ventures, and indebtedness, if necessary.

On a quarterly basis, we review the amount of the common dividend in light of current and projected future cash flows from the sources noted above and also consider the requirements needed to maintain our REIT status. ~~As a result of this review, in the first quarter of 2019, we declared a common dividend per share of $0.0725 which was an increase from the previous quarter's dividend of $0.065 per share.~~ In addition, we have certain covenants under credit agreements which could limit the amount of common dividends paid. In general, common dividends of any amount can be paid as long as leverage, as defined in our credit agreements, is less than 60% and we are not in default. Certain conditions also apply in which we can still pay common dividends if leverage is above that amount. We routinely monitor the status of our common dividend payments in light of the covenants of our credit agreements.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

General. We have a number of off balance sheet joint ventures with varying structures, as described in note 68 of our ~~2018~~2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K and note 5 of this Form 10-Q. The joint ventures in which we have an interest are involved in the ownership, acquisition, and/or development of real estate. A venture will fund capital requirements or operational needs with cash from operations or financing proceeds, if possible. If additional capital is deemed necessary, a venture may request a contribution from the partners, and we will evaluate such request.

Debt. At March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, our unconsolidated joint ventures had aggregate outstanding indebtedness to third parties of ~~$341.4~~$185.8 million. These loans are generally mortgage or construction loans, most of which are non-recourse to us except as described in the paragraph below. In addition, in certain instances, we provide “non-recourse carve-out guarantees” on these non-recourse loans. Certain of these loans have variable interest rates, which creates exposure to the ventures in the form of market risk from interest rate changes.

We guarantee 12.5% of the loan amount related to the Carolina Square construction loan, which has a lending capacity of $79.8 million, and an outstanding balance of ~~$74.6~~$76.1 million as of March 31, ~~2019.~~2020. At March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we guaranteed ~~$9.3~~$9.5 million of the amount outstanding.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applied

~~Table of Contents~~

its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer along with the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness, design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon the foregoing, the Chief Executive Officer along with the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. In addition, based on such evaluation we have identified no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Information regarding legal proceedings is described under the subheading "Litigation" in note 910 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in this Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Risk factors that affect our business and financial results are discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors," of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those previously disclosed in our Annual Report and our Quarterly Reports other than as set forth below. You should carefully consider the risks described in our Annual Report and below, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report and below are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, and/or results of operations could be negatively affected.

A pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of a contagious disease, such as the ongoing global pandemic of COVID-19, could adversely affect us.

Public health crises, pandemics, and epidemics, such as those caused by COVID-19, could have a material adverse effect on global, national, and local economies, as well as on our business and our tenants’ businesses. The ~~Merger~~potential impact of a pandemic, epidemic, or outbreak of a contagious disease on our tenants and our properties is difficult to predict or assess. The extent to which the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including the outbreaks in Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, Phoenix, Tampa, and Dallas and actions taken to contain or slow them, impacts our operations and those of our tenants, will depend on future developments. These may include the scope, severity, and duration of the pandemic, and the actions taken to mitigate its impact, all of which are highly uncertain and unpredictable, but could be material. Considerable uncertainty surrounds the nature of COVID-19 and its potential effects, and the extent of and effectiveness of any responses taken on a national and local level to try to contain it. The long-term impact of COVID-19 on the U.S. and global economies is uncertain and could result in a world-wide economic downturn and recession that may lead to corporate bankruptcies among our tenants. Any of these developments, and other effects of the ongoing global pandemic of COVID-19 or any other pandemic, epidemic, or outbreak of contagious disease, could adversely affect us.

In addition to the general economic impact of a pandemic, epidemic, or outbreak of a contagious disease, if an outbreak of COVID-19 occurs within the workforce of our tenants or otherwise disrupts their management and other personnel, the business and operating results of our tenants could be negatively impacted. Large-scale “shelter in place” or “stay safe” executive orders in Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, Phoenix, Tampa, or Dallas, where we have high concentrations of our lease revenues, could cause many of our tenants, including retailers and restaurants, to stay closed for an extended period of time. The negative impact upon our tenants may include an immediate reduction in cash flow available to pay rent under our leases, and although various governmental financial programs may mitigate this, governmental assistance may not be ~~completed on the terms~~available to all affected tenants or ~~timeline currently contemplated, or at all.~~

~~The completion of the Merger is subject~~may be significantly delayed. In turn, our tenants' inability to ~~certain conditions, including: (i) approval by~~pay rent under our common stockholders of the issuance of our common stock and approval by the TIER common stockholders of the Merger; (ii) approval for listing on the NYSE of our common stock to be issued in the Merger; (iii) the absence of an injunction or law prohibiting the Merger; (iv) accuracy of each party’s representations, subject in most cases to materiality or material adverse effect qualifications, and receipt by each party of a certificate to such effect; (v) material compliance with each party’s covenants; (vi) receipt by us and TIER of an opinion to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and of an opinion that we and TIER will qualify as a REIT under the Code; and (vii) effectiveness of the registration statement that will contain the joint proxy statement/prospectus sent to our stockholders and TIER stockholders. We cannot provide assurances that the Merger will be consummated on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, or at all.

~~The pendency of the Merger~~leases could adversely affect our ~~business~~own liquidity, and ~~operations.~~

~~In connection with~~there can be no guarantee that additional liquidity will be readily available or available on favorable terms in the ~~pending Merger, some~~future. Large-scale executive orders and other measures taken to curb the spread of COVID-19 may also negatively impact the ability of our ~~customers~~properties to continue to obtain necessary goods and services or ~~vendors~~provide adequate staffing, which may delay or defer decisions, which could negatively impact our revenues, earnings, cash flows and expenses, regardless of whether the Merger is completed. In addition, due to restrictive operating covenants in the Merger Agreement, we may be unable, during the pendency of the Merger, to pursue strategic transactions, undertake significant capital projects, undertake certain significant financing transactions, enter into new development agreements and otherwise pursue other actions, even if such actions would prove beneficial.

~~Failure to complete the Merger could~~also adversely affect our ~~stock price~~operating results and ~~future business~~reputation. Any increased costs or lost revenue as a result of tenant financial difficulty, or their need to comply with executive orders and ~~financial results.~~

Ifother guidance from the ~~Merger is~~Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, may not ~~completed,~~be fully recoverable under our ~~ongoing business may be adversely affected and we will be subject to numerous risks, including the following:~~

~~having to pay substantial costs relating~~leases or adequately covered by insurance, which could impact our profitability. In addition to the ~~Merger, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor, filing printing and mailing fees, and integration costs that have already been incurred~~potential consequences listed above, these same factors may cause prospective tenants to delay their leasing decisions or ~~will continue~~to lease less space. Even after the pandemic has ceased to be ~~incurred until~~active, the ~~closing~~prevalence of work-from-home policies during the ~~Merger;~~

~~our management focusing on~~pandemic may alter tenant preferences in the ~~Merger instead of pursuing other opportunities that could be beneficial to us without realizing any of the benefits of having the Merger completed; and~~

~~reputational harm due~~long term with respect to the ~~adverse perception of any failure to successfully complete the Merger.~~demand for leasing office space.

~~If the Merger is not completed, we cannot assure our stockholders that these risks will not materialize and will not materially affect our business, financial results, and stock price.~~

~~Our stockholders will be diluted by the Merger.~~

The Merger will dilute the ownership position of our stockholders. Upon completion of the Merger, our legacy stockholders will own approximately 72% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, and legacy TIER stockholders will own approximately 28% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. The issued and outstanding shares of our preferred stock will not change in connection with the completion of the Merger, but on the limited matters upon which our preferred stock may vote, it generally votes as a single class with the holders of Cousins common stock. Consequently, our stockholders, as a general matter, will have less influence over our management and policies after the effective time of the Merger than they currently exercise over our management and policies.

~~Litigation filed or that may be filed against us, TIER, and/or members of each board of directors could prevent or delay the consummation of the Merger.~~

The outcome of these lawsuits or any other lawsuit that may be filed challenging the Merger is uncertain. One of the conditions to the closing of the Merger is that no governmental authority has issued or entered any order after the date of the Merger Agreement having the effect of enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Merger. Accordingly, if these lawsuits or any future lawsuit is successful in obtaining any order enjoining consummation of the Merger, then such order may prevent the Merger from being consummated, or from being consummated within the expected time frame, and could result in substantial costs to TIER and us, including but not limited to, costs associated with the indemnification of directors and officers. Any such injunction or delay in the Merger being completed may adversely affect TIER's or our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

~~Following the Merger, the composition of our Board of Directors will be different than the composition of our current Board of Directors.~~

The Merger Agreement provides that, as of the effective time of the Merger, our Board of Directors will consist of eleven members, including nine individuals who are current members of the Board of Directors. Upon closing, two members of our Board of Directors of TIER, Scott W. Fordham and one additional independent member on the Board of Directors of TIER to be mutually agreed upon by the parties, will be appointed to our Board of Directors.

~~Our future results will suffer if we do not effectively manage our operations following the Merger.~~

Following the Merger, we may continue to expand our operations through additional acquisitions, development opportunities and other strategic transactions, some of which involve complex challenges. Our future success will depend, in part, upon our ability to manage our expansion opportunities, which poses substantial challenges for us to integrate new operations into our existing business in an efficient and timely manner, and to successfully monitor our operations, costs, regulatory compliance and service quality, and to maintain other necessary internal controls. We cannot assure you that our expansion or acquisition opportunities will be successful, or that they will realize their expected operating efficiencies, cost savings, revenue enhancements, synergies or other benefits.
