Federal Realty Investment Trust
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
JuneSeptember 30, 2021
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1—BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
Federal Realty Investment Trust (the “Trust”) is an equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) specializing in the ownership, management, and redevelopment of retail and mixed-use properties. Our properties are located primarily in communities where we believe retail demand exceeds supply, in strategically selected metropolitan markets in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions of the United States, California, and South Florida. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we owned or had a majority interest in community and neighborhood shopping centers and mixed-use properties which are operated as 105106 predominantly retail real estate projects.
We operate in a manner intended to enable us to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. A REIT that distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders each year and meets certain other conditions is not taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. Therefore, federal income taxes on our taxable income have been and are generally expected to be immaterial. We are obligated to pay state taxes, generally consisting of franchise or gross receipts taxes in certain states. Such state taxes also have not been material.

NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
Principles of Consolidation
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Trust, its corporate subsidiaries, and all entities in which the Trust has a controlling interest or has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The equity interests of other investors are reflected as noncontrolling interests or redeemable noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. We account for our interests in joint ventures, which we do not control, using the equity method of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, referred to as “GAAP,” requires management to make estimates and assumptions that in certain circumstances affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses. These estimates are prepared using management’s best judgment, after considering past, current and expected events and economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Impacts of COVID-19 Pandemic
Since March 2020, we have been, and continue to be, impacted by the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic. While we currently expect the impact to our properties to be temporary in nature, the extent of the future effects of COVID-19 on our business, results of operations, cash flows, and growth prospects is highly uncertain and will ultimately depend on future developments, none of which can be predicted with any certainty.
Federal, state, and local governments have taken various actions since the onset of the pandemic to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. These actions range fromincluded the closure of nonessential businesses and ordering residents to generally stay at home at the onset of the pandemic, to phased re-openings and capacity limitations, and now to generally lifted restrictionsrestrictions. While the overall economy is showing signs of recovery from the initial impacts of COVID-19, workforce shortages, global supply chain bottlenecks and shortages, inflation, as well as COVID-19 vaccination rates increase. These closuresvariants are impacting the pace of recovery. Closures and

restrictions, along with general concern over the spread of COVID-19, required a significant number of tenants to close their operations or to significantly limit the amount of business they were able to conduct,

which impacted their ability to timely pay rent as required under our leases and also caused many tenants to close their businesses permanently. While recentWith the re-openings, our results are improving, we continued to see elevated levelshave improved during the first nine months of 2021 and collectibility related impacts and accordingly, duringhave continued to decrease. During the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we recognized collectibility related adjustments of $6.4$0.6 million and $21.2$21.8 million, respectively, as compared to $29.4 million and $87.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. This includes not only the impact of tenants recognized on a cash basis but also changes in our collectibility assessments from probable to not probable, disputed rents, and any rent abatements directly related to COVID-19. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the revenue from approximately 35% of our tenants (based on total commercial leases) is being recognized on a cash basis.
For more information, see Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Outlook.
Mortgage Notes Receivable
On May 11, 2021, two of our outstanding mortgage notes receivable were repaid. Including interest, the net proceeds were $33.8 million. As a result of the transaction, our mortgage notes receivable, net of valuation allowance, decreased $30.3 million.
Forward Equity Sales
On February 24, 2021, we replaced our existing at-the-market (“ATM”) equity program with a new ATM equity program in which we may from time to time offer and sell common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $500.0 million. The new ATM equity program also allows shares to be sold through forward sales contracts. Our forward sales contracts currently meet all the conditions for equity classification; and therefore, we record common stock on the settlement date at the purchase price contemplated by the contract. Furthermore, we consider the potential dilution resulting from forward sales contracts in our earnings per share calculations. We use the treasury method to determine the dilution, if any, from the forward sales contracts during the period of time prior to settlement. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, no forward sales contracts have settled.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
StandardDescriptionEffect on the financial statements or significant matters
ASU 2020-04, March 2020, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)
This ASU provides companies with optional practical expedients to ease the accounting burden for contract modifications associated with transitioning away from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates that are expected to be discontinued as part of reference rate reform. For hedges, the guidance generally allows changes to the reference rate and other critical terms without having to de-designate the hedging relationship, as well as allows the shortcut method to continue to be applied. For contract modifications, changes in the reference rate or other critical terms will be treated as a continuation of the prior contract.

This guidance can be applied immediately, however, is generally only available through December 31, 2022.
We are still evaluating the impact of reference rate reform and whether we will apply any of these practical expedients.
ASU 2021-05, July 2021, Lessors - Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments (Topic 842)
This ASU amends the lessor lease classification in ASC 842 for leases that include variable lease payments that are not based on an index or rate. Under the amended guidance, lessors will classify a lease with variable payments that do not depend on an index or rate as an operating lease if the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease under the previous ASU 842 classification criteria, and sales-type or direct financing lease classification would result in a Day 1 loss.

This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods therein.
The adoption of this standard does not have an impact to our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3—REAL ESTATE
On January 4, 2021, we acquired our partner's 20% interest in our joint venture arrangement related to the Pike & Rose hotel for $2.3 million, and repaid the $31.5 million mortgage loan encumbering the hotel. As a result of the transaction, we gained control of the hotel, and effective January 4, 2021, we have consolidated this asset. We also recognized a gain on acquisition of the controlling interest of $2.1 million related to the difference between the carrying value and fair value of the previously held equity interest.
On February 22, 2021, we acquired the fee interest at our Mount Vernon Plaza property in Alexandria, Virginia for $5.6 million. As a result of this transaction, the "operating lease right of use assets" and "operating lease liabilities" on our consolidated balance sheet decreased by $9.8 million. We now own the entire fee interest on this property.

NOTE 4—DEBT
On February 5, 2021, we repaid the $16.2 million mortgage loan on Sylmar Towne Center, at par, prior to its original maturity date.
On April 16, 2021, we repaid $100.0 million of our existing $400.0 million term loan, amended the agreement on the remaining $300.0 million to lower the current spread over LIBOR from 135 basis points to 80 basis points based on our current credit rating, and extended the initial maturity date to April 16, 2024, along with two one-year extensions, at our option.
In June 2020,On September 1, 2021, we provided notice forrepaid the early repayment of the$7.9 million mortgage loan on Plaza Del Sol, mortgage loan, at par, on September 1, 2021.prior to its original maturity date.
During the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, there were 0no borrowings on our $1.0 billion revolving credit facility. Our revolving credit facility, term loan, and certain notes require us to comply with various financial covenants, including the maintenance of minimum shareholders' equity and debt coverage ratios and a maximum ratio of debt to net worth. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all default related debt covenants.

NOTE 5—FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Except as disclosed below, the carrying amount of our financial instruments approximates their fair value. The fair value of our mortgages payable, notes payable and senior notes and debentures is sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates. Quoted market prices (Level 1) were used to estimate the fair value of our marketable senior notes and debentures and discounted cash flow analysis (Level 2) is generally used to estimate the fair value of our mortgages and notes payable. Considerable judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. The estimates of fair value presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments. A summary of the carrying amount and fair value of our mortgages payable, notes payable and senior notes and debentures is as follows:

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we have 2 interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts of $56.5 million that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The interest rate swap agreements fix the interest rate on $56.5 million of mortgage payables at 3.67% through December 15, 2029. The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements are based on the estimated amounts we would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date and are determined using interest rate pricing models and interest rate related observable inputs. The fair value of our swaps at JuneSeptember 30, 2021 was a liability of $2.4$2.0 million and

NOTE 6—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We are sometimes involved in lawsuits, warranty claims, and environmental matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Management makes assumptions and estimates concerning the likelihood and amount of any potential loss relating to these matters.
We are currently a party to various legal proceedings. We accrue a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is probable and a reasonable estimate of the loss is a range, we accrue the best estimate within the range; however, if no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the minimum within the range is accrued. Legal fees related to litigation are expensed as incurred. We do not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position or overall trends in results of operations; however, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties. Also under our leases, tenants are typically obligated to indemnify us from and against all liabilities, costs and expenses imposed upon or asserted against us (1) as owner of the properties due to certain matters relating to the operation of the properties by the tenant, and (2) where appropriate, due to certain matters relating to the ownership of the properties prior to their acquisition by us.
Under the terms of certain partnership agreements, the partners have the right to exchange their operating partnership units for cash or common shares, at our option. A total of 694,133 downREIT operating partnership units are outstanding which have a total fair value of approximately $81.3$81.9 million, which is calculated by multiplying the outstanding number of downREIT partnership units by our closing stock price on JuneSeptember 30, 2021.

On February 24, 2021, we replaced our existing ATM equity program with a new ATM equity program in which we may from time to time offer and sell common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $500.0 million. On May 7, 2021, we amended this ATM equity program, which resets the limit to $500.0 million. The new ATM equity program also allows shares to be sold through forward sales contracts. We intend to use the net proceeds to fund potential acquisition opportunities, fund our development and redevelopment pipeline, repay indebtedness and/or for general corporate purposes.
For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we issued 847,471 common shares at a weighted average price per share of $104.19 for net cash proceeds of $87.1 million including paying $0.9 million in commissions and $0.3$0.4 million in additional offering expenses related to the sales of these common shares. We also entered into forward sales contracts for the three and six nine

NOTE 9—EARNINGS PER SHARE
We have calculated earnings per share (“EPS”) under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation methodology whereby EPS for each class of common stock and participating securities is calculated according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. For the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we had 0.3 million and for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, we had 0.2 million weighted average unvested shares outstanding, respectively, which are considered participating securities. Therefore, we have allocated our earnings for basic and diluted EPS between common shares and unvested shares; the portion of earnings allocated to the unvested shares is reflected as “earnings allocated to unvested shares” in the reconciliation below.
The following potentially issuable shares were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because their impact is anti-dilutive:
exercise of 682 stock options for both the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020,
conversions of downREIT operating partnership units and 5.417% Series 1 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares for all periods presented,both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and
the issuance of 0.9 million and 1.41.7 million shares issuable under forward sales agreements for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, respectively.
Additionally, 10,441 unvested restricted stock units are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation as the market based performance criteria in the awards has not yet been achieved.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Forward-Looking Statements
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereto appearing in Item 1 of this report and the more detailed information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 11, 2021.
Certain statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of Federal Realty Investment Trust (“we” “our” or “us”) 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 risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:
risks that our tenants will not pay rent, may vacate early or may file for bankruptcy or that we may be unable to renew leases or re-let space at favorable rents as leases expire;
risks that we may not be able to proceed with or obtain necessary approvals for any redevelopment or renovation project, and that completion of anticipated or ongoing property redevelopment or renovation projects that we do pursue may cost more, take more time to complete or fail to perform as expected;
14

Table of Contents
risk that we are investing a significant amount in ground-up development projects that may be dependent on third parties to deliver critical aspects of certain projects, requires spending a substantial amount upfront in infrastructure, and assumes receipt of public funding which has been committed but not entirely funded;
14

Table of Contents
risks normally associated with the real estate industry, including risks that occupancy levels at our properties and the amount of rent that we receive from our properties may be lower than expected, that new acquisitions may fail to perform as expected, that competition for acquisitions could result in increased prices for acquisitions, that costs associated with the periodic maintenance and repair or renovation of space, insurance and other operations may increase, that environmental issues may develop at our properties and result in unanticipated costs, and, because real estate is illiquid, that we may not be able to sell properties when appropriate;
risks that our growth will be limited if we cannot obtain additional capital;
risks of financing on terms which are acceptable to us, our ability to meet existing financial covenants and the limitations imposed on our operations by those covenants, and the possibility of increases in interest rates that would result in increased interest expense;
risks related to our status as a real estate investment trust, commonly referred to as a REIT, for federal income tax purposes, such as the existence of complex tax regulations relating to our status as a REIT, the effect of future changes in REIT requirements as a result of new legislation, and the adverse consequences of the failure to qualify as a REIT;
risks related to natural disasters, climate change and public health crises (such as the outbreak and worldwide spread of COVID-19), and the measures that international, federal, state and local governments, agencies, law enforcement and/or health authorities implement to address them, may precipitate or materially exacerbate one or more of the above-mentioned risks, and may significantly disrupt or prevent us from operating our business in the ordinary course for an extended period.
Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements that we make, including those in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. You should carefully review the risks and the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and under Part II, Item 1A in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, before making any investments in us.
Overview
We are an equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) specializing in the ownership, management, and redevelopment of high quality retail and mixed-use properties located primarily in communities where we believe retail demand exceeds supply, in strategically selected metropolitan markets in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States, California, and South Florida. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we owned or had a majority interest in community and neighborhood shopping centers and mixed-use properties which are operated as 105106 predominantly retail real estate projects comprising approximately 25.325.4 million square feet. In total, the real estate projects were 92.7%92.8% leased and 89.6%90.2% occupied at JuneSeptember 30, 2021.
Impacts of COVID-19 Pandemic
We continue to monitor and address risks related to the novel coronavirus disease ("COVID-19") pandemic. Since March 2020 when the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a global pandemic, we have been and continue to be impacted by COVID-19 and the actions taken by federal, state, and local government to prevent its spread. These actions range fromincluded the closure of nonessential businesses and ordering residents to generally stay at home at the onset of the pandemic, to phased re-openings and capacity limitations, and now to generally lifted restrictionsrestrictions. While the overall economy is showing signs of recovery from the initial impacts of COVID-19, workforce shortages, global supply chain bottlenecks and shortages, inflation, as well as COVID-19 vaccination rates increase. These closuresvariants are impacting the pace of recovery. Closures and restrictions, along with general concern over the spread of COVID-19, required a significant number of tenants to close their operations or to significantly limit the amount of business they are able to conduct, which impacted their ability to timely pay rent as required under our leases and also caused many tenants to close their business permanently. While improving, our cash flow and results of operations in the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 continued to be materially adversely impacted, with vacancy levels remaining above historical levels. Although virtually all of our leases required the tenants to pay rent even while they were not operating, we entered into numerous agreements to abate, defer, and/or restructure tenant rent payments for varying periods of time, all with the objective of collecting as much cash as reasonably possible and maintaining occupancy to the maximum extent. We believe those actions will position many of our tenants to be able to return to payment of contractual rent as soon as possible after the impacts from the pandemic have subsided.
During the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we recognized collectibility related adjustments of $6.4$0.6 million and $21.2$21.8 million, respectively, as compared to $29.4 million and $87.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. This includes not only the impact of tenants recognized on a cash basis but also changes in our collectibility assessments from probable to not probable, disputed rents, and any rent abatements directly related to COVID-19. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the revenue from approximately 35% of our tenants (based on total commercial leases) is being recognized on a cash basis.

Table of Contents
We believe that the actions we have taken to improve our financial position and maximize our liquidity, as described further in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, will continue to mitigate the impact to our cash flow caused by tenants not timely paying contractual rent.
See further discussion of the impact of COVID-19 on our business throughout Item 2.

Business Continuity
We transitioned our entire workforce to remote work in March 2020 with the exception of those employees who were critical to providing the necessary day-to-day property management functions required to keep our properties open and operating for essential businesses such as grocery stores and drug stores, and a few employees who were needed to carry out critical corporate functions. Although allAll of our corporate offices have reopened, many of our employees continue to work remotely asand we transitionhave transitioned to a hybrid work model. We have not laid off, furloughed, or terminated any employees nor have we modified the compensation of any of our employees as a result of COVID-19, and the transition to a largely remote workforcehybrid work model has not had any material adverse impacts on our financial reporting systems, our internal controls, or disclosure controls and procedures.
Critical Accounting Policies
There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
2021 Acquisitions and Disposition
On January 4, 2021, we acquired our partner's 20% interest in our joint venture arrangement related to the Pike & Rose hotel for $2.3 million, and repaid the $31.5 million mortgage loan encumbering the hotel. As a result of the transaction, we gained control of the hotel, and effective January 4, 2021, we have consolidated the asset. We also recognized a gain on acquisition of the controlling interest of $2.1 million related to the difference between the carrying value and fair value of the previously held equity interest.
On February 22, 2021, we acquired the fee interest at our Mount Vernon Plaza property in Alexandria, Virginia for $5.6 million. As a result of this transaction, the "operating lease right of use assets" and "operating lease liabilities" on our consolidated balance sheet decreased by $9.8 million. We now own the entire fee interest on this property.
On March 19, 2021, we sold a portion of Graham Park Plaza in Falls Church, Virginia for $20.3 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $15.6 million.
During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we acquired the following properties:

2021 Debt and Equity Transactions
On February 5, 2021, we repaid the $16.2 million mortgage loan on Sylmar Towne Center, at par, prior to its original maturity date.
On February 24, 2021, we replaced our existing at-the-market (“ATM”) equity program with a new ATM equity program in which we may from time to time offer and sell common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $500.0 million. On May 7, 2021, we amended this ATM equity program, which reset the limit to $500.0 million. The new ATM equity program also allows shares to be sold through forward sales contracts. We intend to use the net proceeds to fund potential acquisition opportunities, fund our development and redevelopment pipeline, repay indebtedness and/or for general corporate purposes.
For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we issued 847,471 common shares at a weighted average price per share of $104.19 for net cash proceeds of $87.1 million including paying $0.9 million in commissions and $0.3$0.4 million in additional offering expenses related to the sales of these common shares. We also entered into forward sales contracts for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 for 1,194,733822,678 and 1,526,0512,348,729 shares, respectively, under our ATM equity program at a weighted average offering price of $117.47$121.18 and $115.30,$117.36, respectively. The forward price that we will receive upon physical settlement of the agreements is subject to the adjustment for (i) commissions, (ii) a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily rate less a spread, (iii) the forward purchasers' stock borrowing costs and (iv) scheduled dividends during the term of the forward sale agreements. The open forward shares may be settled at any time on or before multiple required settlement dates ranging from March 2022 to JuneSeptember 2022. We have remaining capacity to issue up to $359.7$260.0 million in common shares under our ATM equity program as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021.
On April 16, 2021, we repaid $100.0 million of our existing $400.0 million term loan, amended the agreement on the remaining $300.0 million to lower the current spread over LIBOR from 135 basis points to 80 basis points based on our current credit rating, and extended the initial maturity date to April 16, 2024, along with two one-year extensions, at our option.

Capitalized Costs
Certain external and internal costs directly related to the development, redevelopment and leasing of real estate, including pre-construction costs, real estate taxes, insurance, construction costs and salaries and related costs of personnel directly involved, are capitalized. We capitalized certain external and internal costs related to both development and redevelopment activities of $197$276 million and $5$7 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, and $202$311 million and $5$7 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020. We capitalized external and internal costs related to other property improvements of $34$44 million and $2$3 million, respectively, for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, and $27$44 million and $2 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020. We capitalized external and internal costs related to leasing activities of $7$11 million and $1$2 million, respectively, for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, and $5$8 million and $1$2 million, respectively, for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020. The amount of capitalized internal costs for salaries and related benefits for development and redevelopment activities, other property improvements, and leasing activities were $5$7 million, $2 million, and $1$2 million respectively, for both the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and $5 million, $1 million, and $1 million, respectively for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Outlook
Our long-term growth strategy is focused on growth in earnings, funds from operations, and cash flows primarily through a combination of the following:
growth in our comparable property portfolio,
growth in our portfolio from property developments and redevelopments, and
expansion of our portfolio through property acquisitions.

While the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is impacting us in the short-term, our long-term focus has not changed. See our 10-K filed on February 11, 2021, for discussion of our long-term strategies.

Federal, state, and local governments have taken various actions to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, including initially ordering closures of non-essential businesses and ordering residents to generally stay at home. While many of these restrictions have since been lifted, they required a significant number of tenants to close their operations or to significantly limit the amount of business they were able to conduct in their stores. These closures and restrictions, along with general concerns over the
17

Table of Contents
spread of COVID-19 have impacted the tenants' ability to timely pay rent as required under our leases and also caused many tenants to close their business permanently. While we are seeing signs of considerable improvement, in the past few months, these economic hardships have adversely impacted our business, and continue to have a negative effect on our financial results during the secondthird quarter of 2021. With very few exceptions, our leases require tenants to continue to pay rent even while closed as a result of the pandemic, and while many tenants did not pay rents and other charges during a portion of 2020, the majority of our tenants have resumed paying all or a portion of their rent and/or other charges as their businesses were able to reopen. Our percentage of contractual rent actually collected has continued to increase since the low point in April 2020, including some tenants paying past due amounts. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we have entered into agreements with approximately 32% of our tenants (based on total commercial leases) to defer rent payments to later periods, largely throughout the remainder of 2021 and into 2022, although some extend beyond, and negotiations with other tenants are still ongoing. While increasing monthly cash collection rates is a positive trend driven by government mandated restrictions generally being lifted, we expect that our rent collections will continue to be below our tenants’ contractual rent obligations and historical levels through at least the end of 2021, which will continue to adversely impact our results of operations. We are also experiencing a lower level of occupancy than in our past, largely due to the pandemic, which will adversely impact our results until we can release the space and the tenant commences paying rent as well as limit future vacancies caused by the pandemic. We are, however, experiencing strong demand for our commercial space as evidenced by the 1.11.5 million square feet of comparable space retail leasing we've completed so far in the first half of 2021, as well as our overall leased percentage at 92.7%92.8%, compared to our occupied percentage of only 89.6%90.2%. We have begun to see impacts of overall supply chain disruptions affecting the broader economy, including significantly longer lead times, limited availability, and increased costs for certain construction and other materials that support our development and redevelopment activities. If disruptions continue to worsen, they could result in extended timeframes and/or increased costs for completion of our projects and tenant build-outs, which could delay the commencement of rent payments under new leases. Similarly, if our tenants experience significant disruptions in supply chains supporting their own products, or staffing issues due to labor shortages, their ability to pay rent may be adversely affected. We continue to monitor these macroeconomic developments and are working with our tenants and our vendors to limit the overall impact to our business.

The extent of the impact from COVID-19 will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Depending upon the duration of tenant closures, future operating restrictions, and the overall economic downturn resulting from COVID-19, we may find that even deferred rents are difficult to collect, and we may experience higher vacancy levels. While the duration and severity of the economic impact resulting from COVID-19 is unknown, we seek to position the Trust to continue to participate in the resulting economic recovery.

We continue to have several development projects in process being delivered as follows:
The first phase of construction on Santana West includes an eight story 376,000 square foot office building, with over 1,700 parking spaces. The building is expected to cost between $250 million and $270 million with openings expected to begin in 2022.
Phase III of Assembly Row includes 277,000 square feet of office space, 56,000 square feet of retail space, 500 residential units, and over 800 additional parking spaces. The expected costs for Phase III are between $465 million and $485 million, with spaces being delivered beginning in the second quarter of 2021. At JuneSeptember 30, 2021, 150,000 square feet of office space has been delivered, 367 units in the residential building have been delivered, and 13,00023,000 square feet of retail space has opened.
Phase III at Pike & Rose includes a 212,000 square foot office building (which includes 7,000 square feet of ground floor retail space) and over 600 additional parking spaces. The building is expected to cost between $128 million and $135
18

Table of Contents
$135 million. At JuneSeptember 30, 2021, approximately 159,000185,000 square feet has been leased, of which approximately 45,000 square feet is our new corporate headquarters.
Throughout the portfolio, we currently have redevelopment projects underway with a projected total cost of approximately $274$313 million that we expect to stabilize over the next several years.

The above includes our best estimates based on information currently known, however, the completion of construction, final costs, and the timing of leasing and openings will be dependent upon the duration of governmental restrictions and the duration and severity of the economic impacts of COVID-19.
The development of future phases of Assembly Row, Pike & Rose and Santana Row will be pursued opportunistically based on, among other things, market conditions, tenant demand, and our evaluation of whether those phases will generate an appropriate financial return.
We continue to review acquisition opportunities that complement our portfolio and provide long-term growth opportunities. Initially, some of our acquisitions do not contribute significantly to earnings growth; however, we believe they provide long-term re-leasing growth, redevelopment opportunities, and other strategic opportunities. Any growth from acquisitions is contingent on our ability to find properties that meet our qualitative standards at prices that meet our financial hurdles. Changes in interest rates may affect our success in achieving earnings growth through acquisitions by affecting both the price that must be paid to acquire a property, as well as our ability to economically finance the property acquisition. Generally, our acquisitions are initially financed by available cash and/or borrowings under our revolving credit facility which may be repaid later with funds raised through the issuance of new equity or new long-term debt. We may also finance our acquisitions through the issuance of common shares, preferred shares, or downREIT units as well as through assumed mortgages and property sales.
At JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the leasable square feet in our properties was 92.7%92.8% leased and 89.6%90.2% occupied. The leased rate is higher than the occupied rate due to leased spaces that are being redeveloped or improved or that are awaiting permits and, therefore,

are not yet ready to be occupied. Our occupancy and leased rates are subject to variability over time due to factors including acquisitions, the timing of the start and stabilization of our redevelopment projects, lease expirations and tenant closings and bankruptcies.
Lease Rollovers
For the secondthird quarter of 2021, we signed leases for a total of 577,000482,000 square feet of retail space including 558,000430,000 square feet of comparable space leases (leases for which there was a prior tenant) at an average rental increase of 7% on a cash basis. New leases for comparable spaces were signed for 220,000 square feet at an average rental increase of 7% on a cash basis. Renewals for comparable spaces were signed for 211,000 square feet at a 6% average rental increase on a cash basis. Tenant improvements and incentives for comparable spaces were $35.36 per square foot, of which, $65.22 per square foot was for new leases and $4.23 per square foot was for renewals for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we signed leases for a total of 1,573,000 square feet of retail space including 1,495,000 square feet of comparable space leases (leases for which there was a prior tenant) at an average rental increase of 8% on a cash basis. New leases for comparable spaces were signed for 415,000854,000 square feet at an average rental increase of 11%12% on a cash basis. Renewals for comparable spaces were signed for 144,000641,000 square feet at noan average rental increase of 3% on a cash basis. Tenant improvements and incentives for comparable spaces were $51.35$40.23 per square foot, of which, $67.87$67.00 per square foot was for new leases and $3.74$4.55 per square foot was for renewals for the threenine months ended June 30, 2021.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we signed leases for a total of 1,091,000 square feet of retail space including 1,065,000 square feet of comparable space leases (leases for which there was a prior tenant) at an average rental increase of 8% on a cash basis. New leases for comparable spaces were signed for 635,000 square feet at an average rental increase of 13% on a cash basis. Renewals for comparable spaces were signed for 430,000 square feet at an average rental increase of 1% on a cash basis. Tenant improvements and incentives for comparable spaces were $42.20 per square foot, of which, $67.62 per square foot was for new leases and $4.70 per square foot was for renewals for the six months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021.
The rental increases associated with comparable spaces generally include all leases signed for retail space in arms-length transactions reflecting market leverage between landlords and tenants during the period. The comparison between average rent for expiring leases and new leases is determined by including contractual rent on the expiring lease and annual market rent and in some instances, projections of percentage rent, to be paid on the new lease. In atypical circumstances, management may exercise judgment as to how to most effectively reflect the comparability of spaces reported in this calculation. As a result of accommodations made to certain tenants to help them to stay open during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, we have found it necessary to exercise more judgement in 2020 and 2021 than in prior years in order to appropriately reflect the comparability of spaces in the calculation. The change in rental income on comparable space leases is impacted by numerous factors including current market rates, location, individual tenant creditworthiness, use of space, market conditions when the expiring lease was signed, capital investment made in the space and the specific lease structure. Tenant improvements and incentives include the total dollars committed for the improvement (fit out) of a space as it relates to a specific lease. Incentives include amounts paid to tenants as inducement to sign a lease that do not represent building improvements.

Table of Contents
Historically, we have executed comparable space leases for 1.3 to 1.9 million square feet of retail space each year. We expect some rental rates to continue to be negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Given the significant volume of leasing we've achieved during the first sixnine months of 2021, we expect the overall volume in 2021 to be at the high end, or potentially exceed, our historical averages given a larger amount of vacancy as a result of COVID-19. We expect some rental rates to continue to be negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Although we expect overall positive increases in annual rent for comparable spaces, changes in annual rent for any individual lease or combinations of individual leases reported in any particular period may be positive or negative and we can provide no assurance that the annual rents on comparable space leases will continue to increase at historical levels, if at all.
The leases signed in 2021 generally become effective over the following two years though some may not become effective until 2024 and beyond. Further, there is risk that some new tenants will not ultimately take possession of their space and that tenants for both new and renewal leases may not pay all of their contractual rent due to operating, financing or other matters. However, our historical increases in rental rates do provide information about the tenant/landlord relationship and the potential increase we may achieve in rental income over time.
Comparable Properties
Throughout this section, we have provided certain information on a “comparable property” basis. Information provided on a comparable property basis includes the results of properties that we owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared except for properties that are currently under development or are being repositioned for significant redevelopment and investment. For the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, all or a portion of 9897 properties were considered comparable properties and sixseven properties were considered non-comparable properties. For the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, one portion of a property was moved from non-comparable propertiescomparable to comparable properties and two portions of properties were moved from acquisitions to comparablenon-comparable properties. For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, two portions of properties were moved from non-comparable properties to comparable properties, one property and two portions of properties were moved from acquisitions to comparable properties, one property was moved from comparable to non-comparable, and one portion of a property was removed from non-comparable properties, as it was sold, compared to the designations as of December 31, 2020. While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, we typically move non-comparable properties to comparable properties once they have stabilized, which is typically considered 90% physical occupancy or when the growth expected from the redevelopment has been included in the comparable

periods. We typically remove properties from comparable properties when the repositioning of the asset has commenced and has or is expected to have a significant impact to property operating income within the calendar year. Acquisitions are moved to comparable properties once we have owned the property for the entirety of comparable periods and the property is not under development or being repositioned for significant redevelopment and investment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Due to the nature of our business and strategy, we typically generate significant amounts of cash from operations which is largely paid to our common and preferred shareholders in the form of dividends because as a REIT, we are generally required to make annual distributions to shareholders of at least 90% of our taxable income (cash dividends paid in the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 were approximately $167.2$251.3 million). Remaining cash flow from operations after dividend payments is used to fund recurring and non-recurring capital projects (such as tenant improvements and redevelopments), and regular debt service requirements (including debt service relating to additional or replacement debt, as well as scheduled debt maturities). We maintain a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility to fund short term cash flow needs and also look to the public and private debt and equity markets, joint venture relationships, and property dispositions to fund capital expenditures on a long-term basis.

AlthoughDuring 2021, we are seeinghave continued to see improvements in overall cash collections during 2021, we are still experiencing lower levels of cash from operations due to lower rent collections from tenants, and lower occupancy, both a result of the COVID-19 pandemicalthough not yet at pre-COVID levels (see further discussion under the "Outlook" section of this Item 2). While the overall economic impacts of the pandemic are unknown, we have taken multiple steps to strengthen our financial position, maximize liquidity, and to provide maximum
flexibility during these uncertain times, including maintaining levels of cash significantly in excess of the cash balances we have historically maintained.

During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, there were no borrowings on our $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility, and as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $304.3$177.6 million. We also had outstanding forward sales agreements for net proceeds of $172.4$268.4 million as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, and the capacity to issue up to $359.7$260.0 million in common shares both under our ATM equity program.
On April 16, 2021, we repaid $100.0 million of our existing $400.0 million term loan, amended the agreement on the remaining $300.0 million to lower the current spread over LIBOR from 135 basis points to 80 basis points based on our current credit rating, and extended the initial maturity date to April 16, 2024, along with two one-year extensions, at our option. Subsequently, over the next 12 months,Subsequent to September 30, 2021, we repaid two mortgage loans, at par, which were to mature in early 2022. As a result, we have $124.2 million of securedno debt maturing which we intend to pay off prior to the maturity date, at par.until 2023.
Our overall capital requirements for the remainder of 2021 will continue to be impacted by the extent and duration of COVID-19 related closures and restrictions, impacts on our cash collections, and overall economic impacts that might occur.occur including supply chain issues. Cash requirements will also be impacted by acquisition opportunities and the level and general timing of our redevelopment and development activities. While the amount of future expenditures will depend on numerous factors, we expect to seehave seen generally higher levels of capital investmentsinvestment in our properties under development and redevelopment, as weredevelopment. Capital investment decreased in 2021 with the the current phase openings at Assembly Row and Pike & Rose, but are expected to increase when the next phases are initiated. We continue to invest in the current phase of these projects and are not expecting COVID-19 related halts in construction activities similar to those experienced in 2020. With respect to other capital investments related to our existing properties, we expect to incur levels more consistent with prior years with an overall increase compared to 2020.
We believe that the cash on our balance sheet together with rents we collect, as well as our $1.0 billion revolving credit facility will allow us to continue to operate our business through the remainder of the COVID-19 pandemic. Given our recent ability to access the capital markets, we also expect debt or equity to be available to us. We also have the ability to delay the timing of certain development and redevelopment projects as well as limit future acquisitions, as well as limit future acquisitions, reduce our operating expenditures, or re-evaluate our dividend policy.

While we have seen improvements from the initial negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, it has continued to affect our overall business during the quarter ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, and we expect it will continue to negatively impact our business in the short term. We maintain our long term commitment to a conservative capital structure that will allow us to maintain strong debt service coverage and fixed-charge coverage ratios as part of our commitment to investment-grade debt ratings.

$700.1 million in net proceeds from the issuance of $400.0 million of 3.50% unsecured senior notes and the $300.0 million reopening of our 3.95% unsecured senior notes in May 2020,
$398.7 million in net proceeds from our $400.0 million unsecured term loan issued in May 2020, and
a $148.0$155.5 million increase in repayment of mortgages, finance leases, and notes payable primarily due to the $100.0 million repayment of our $400.0 million term loan which was amended in April 2021, the $31.5 million repayment of the mortgage loan related to the Pike & Rose hotel in January 2021, and the $16.2 million repayment of the mortgage loan on Sylmar Towne Center in February 2021, and the $7.9 million repayment of the mortgage loan on Plaza Del Sol in September 2021, and
an $8.0 million increase in dividends paid to shareholders due to an increase in the common share dividend rate and an increase in the number of common shares outstanding,

Our revolving credit facility and other debt agreements include financial and other covenants that may limit our operating activities in the future. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all financial and other covenants related to our revolving credit facility, term loan, and senior notes. Additionally, we were in compliance with all of the financial and other covenants that could trigger loan default on our mortgage loans. If we were to breach any of these financial and other covenants and did not cure the breach within an applicable cure period, our lenders could require us to repay the debt immediately and, if the debt is secured, could immediately begin proceedings to take possession of the property securing the loan. Many of our debt arrangements, including our public notes and our revolving credit facility, are cross-defaulted, which means that the lenders under those debt arrangements can put us in default and require immediate repayment of their debt if we breach and fail to cure a default under certain of our other debt obligations. As a result, any default under our debt covenants could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, our results of operations, our ability to meet our obligations and the market value of our shares. Our organizational documents do not limit the level or amount of debt that we may incur.

Interest Rate Hedging
We may use derivative instruments to manage exposure to variable interest rate risk. We generally enter into interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to variable interest rate risk and treasury locks to manage the risk of interest rates rising prior to the issuance of debt. We enter into derivative instruments that qualify as cash flow hedges and do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
Interest rate swaps associated with cash flow hedges are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Effectiveness of cash flow hedges is assessed both at inception and on an ongoing basis. The effective portion of changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps associated with cash flow hedges is recorded in other comprehensive loss which is included in "accumulated other comprehensive loss" on the balance sheet and statement of shareholders' equity. Cash flow hedges become ineffective if critical terms of the hedging instrument and the debt instrument do not perfectly match such as notional amounts, settlement dates, reset dates, calculation period and LIBOR rate. In addition, we evaluate the default risk of the counterparty by monitoring the credit-worthiness of the counterparty which includes reviewing debt ratings and financial performance. If a cash flow hedge is deemed ineffective, the ineffective portion of changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps associated with cash flow hedges is recognized in earnings in the period affected.
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we have two interest rate swap agreements that effectively fix the rate on a mortgage payable associated with our Hoboken portfolio at 3.67%. Our Assembly Row hotel joint venture is also a party to two interest rate swap

agreements that effectively fix their debt at 5.206%. All swaps were designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. Hedge ineffectiveness has not impacted earnings as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021.

REIT Qualification
We intend to maintain our qualification as a REIT under Section 856(c) of the Code. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate federal income taxes on income we distribute to our shareholders as long as we satisfy certain technical requirements of the Code, including the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our shareholders.
Funds From Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”) is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of real estate companies’ operating performance. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO as follows: net income, computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and excluding gains and losses on the sale of real estate or changes in control, net of tax, and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity. We compute FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, and we have historically reported our FFO available for common shareholders in addition to our net income and net cash provided by operating activities. It should be noted that FFO:
does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP (which, unlike FFO, generally reflects all cash effects of transactions and other events in the determination of net income);
should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance; and
is not necessarily indicative of cash flow as a measure of liquidity or ability to fund cash needs, including the payment of dividends.
We consider FFO available for common shareholders a meaningful, additional measure of operating performance primarily because it excludes the assumption that the value of the real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, as implied by the historical cost convention of GAAP and the recording of depreciation. We use FFO primarily as one of several means of assessing our operating performance in comparison with other REITs. Comparison of our presentation of FFO to similarly titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in the application of the NAREIT definition used by such REITs.
An increase or decrease in FFO available for common shareholders does not necessarily result in an increase or decrease in aggregate distributions because our Board of Trustees is not required to increase distributions on a quarterly basis. However, we must distribute at least 90% of our annual taxable income to remain qualified as a REIT. Therefore, a significant increase in FFO will generally require an increase in distributions to shareholders although not necessarily on a proportionate basis.

_____________________
(1)For the three and six months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, and 2020, dividends on our Series 1 preferred stock were not deducted in the calculation of FFO available to common shareholders, as the related shares were dilutive and included in "weighted average common shares, diluted."
(2)For the three months ended June 30, 2020, income attributable to operating partnership units is not added back in the calculation of FFO available to common shareholders, as the related shares are not dilutive and are not included in "weighted average common shares, diluted" for this period.
(3)The weighted average common shares for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and the six months ended June 30, 2020 used to compute FFO per diluted common share includes operating partnership units that were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. Conversion of these operating partnership units is dilutive in the computation of FFO per diluted share but is anti-dilutive for the computation of dilutive EPS for these periods.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our use of financial instruments, such as debt instruments, subjects us to market risk which may affect our future earnings and cash flows, as well as the fair value of our assets. Market risk generally refers to the risk of loss from changes in interest rates and market prices. We manage our market risk by attempting to match anticipated inflow of cash from our operating, investing and financing activities with anticipated outflow of cash to fund debt payments, dividends to common and preferred shareholders, investments, capital expenditures and other cash requirements.
We may enter into certain types of derivative financial instruments to further reduce interest rate risk. We use interest rate protection and swap agreements, for example, to convert some of our variable rate debt to a fixed-rate basis or to hedge anticipated financing transactions. We use derivatives for hedging purposes rather than speculation and do not enter into financial instruments for trading purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
The following discusses the effect of hypothetical changes in market rates of interest on interest expense for our variable rate debt and on the fair value of our total outstanding debt, including our fixed-rate debt. Interest rate risk amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our debt. Quoted market prices were used to estimate the fair value of our marketable senior notes and debentures and discounted cash flow analysis is generally used to estimate the fair value of our mortgages and notes payable. Considerable judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. This analysis does not purport to take into account all of the factors that may affect our debt, such as the effect that a changing

interest rate environment could have on the overall level of economic activity or the action that our management might take to reduce our exposure to the change. This analysis assumes no change in our financial structure.

Fixed Interest Rate Debt
The majority of our outstanding debt obligations (maturing at various times through 2046) have fixed interest rates which limit the risk of fluctuating interest rates. However, interest rate fluctuations may affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt instruments. At JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we had $3.9 billion of fixed-rate debt outstanding, including $56.5 million of mortgage payables for which the rate is effectively fixed by two interest rate swap agreements. If market interest rates used to calculate the fair value on our fixed-rate debt instruments at JuneSeptember 30, 2021 had been 1.0% higher, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have decreased by approximately $273.9$270.0 million. If market interest rates used to calculate the fair value on our fixed-rate debt instruments at JuneSeptember 30, 2021 had been 1.0% lower, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have increased by approximately $305.0$299.9 million.
Variable Interest Rate Debt
Generally, we believe that our primary interest rate risk is due to fluctuations in interest rates on our outstanding variable rate debt. At JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we had $300.0 million of variable rate debt outstanding (the principal balance on our unsecured term loan). Based upon this amount of variable rate debt and the specific terms, if market interest rates increased 1.0%, our annual interest expense would increase approximately $3.0 million with a corresponding decrease in our net income and cash flows for the year. Conversely, if market interest rates decreased 1.0%, our annual interest expense would decrease by approximately $3.0 million with a corresponding increase in our net income and cash flows for the year.
ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There have been no material developments in any of our legal proceedings since the disclosure contained in our Annual Report to Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report to our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on February 11, 2021. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
risks that our tenants will not pay rent, may vacate early or may file for bankruptcy or that we may be unable to renew leases or re-let space at favorable rents as leases expire;
risks that we may not be able to proceed with or obtain necessary approvals for any redevelopment or renovation project, and that completion of anticipated or ongoing property redevelopment or renovation projects that we do pursue may cost more, take more time to complete, or fail to perform as expected;
risk that we are investing a significant amount in ground-up development projects that may be dependent on third parties to deliver critical aspects of certain projects, requires spending a substantial amount upfront in infrastructure, and assumes receipt of public funding which has been committed but not entirely funded;
risks normally associated with the real estate industry, including risks that:
occupancy levels at our properties and the amount of rent that we receive from our properties may be lower than expected,
new acquisitions may fail to perform as expected,
competition for acquisitions could result in increased prices for acquisitions,
costs associated with the periodic maintenance and repair or renovation of space, insurance and other operations may increase,
environmental issues may develop at our properties and result in unanticipated costs, and
because real estate is illiquid, we may not be able to sell properties when appropriate;
risks that our growth will be limited if we cannot obtain additional capital;
risks associated with general economic conditions, including local economic conditions in our geographic markets;
risks of financing on terms which are acceptable to us, our ability to meet existing financial covenants and the limitations imposed on our operations by those covenants, and the possibility of increases in interest rates that would result in increased interest expense;
risks related to our status as a real estate investment trust, commonly referred to as a REIT, for federal income tax purposes, such as the existence of complex tax regulations relating to our status as a REIT, the effect of future changes in REIT requirements as a result of new legislation, and the adverse consequences of the failure to qualify as a REIT; and
risks related to natural disasters, climate change and public health crises (such as the outbreak and worldwide spread of COVID-19), and the measures that international, federal, state and local governments, agencies, law enforcement and/or health authorities implement to address them, may precipitate or materially exacerbate one or more of the above-mentioned risks, and may significantly disrupt or prevent us from operating our business in the ordinary course for an extended period.

ITEM 2.UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
