PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Griffin Realty Trust, Inc. (“GRT”, "we", "our", and "us"), other than historical facts, may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We intend for all such forward-looking statements to be covered by the applicable safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” or “potential” or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases which are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters.
The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect our current views about future events and are subject to numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and changes in circumstances that may cause our actual results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements: the continued severity, duration, transmission rate and geographic spread of COVID-19 in the United States, the speed of the vaccine roll-out, effectiveness and willingness of people to take COVID-19 vaccines, the duration of associated immunity and their efficacy against emerging variants and mutations of COVID-19, the extent and effectiveness of other containment measures taken, and the response of the overall economy, the financial markets and the population, particularly in areas in which we operate and with respect to occupancy rates, rent deferrals and the financial condition of GRT’s tenants; general financial and economic conditions; statements about the benefits of the CCIT II Merger (as defined below) and statements that address operating performance, events or developments that GRT expects or anticipates will occur in the future, including but not limited to statements regarding anticipated synergies and G&A savings in the CCIT II Merger, future financial and operating results, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, expected sources of financing, anticipated asset dispositions, anticipated leadership and governance, creation of value for stockholders, benefits of the CCIT II Merger to customers, employees, stockholders and other constituents of the combined company, the integration of GRT and CCIT II (as defined below), cost savings related to CCIT II Merger and other non-historical statements; risks related to the disruption of management’s attention from ongoing business operations due to the CCIT II Merger; our net asset value ("NAV") per share; the availability of suitable investment or disposition opportunities; our use of leverage; changes in interest rates; the availability and terms of financing; market conditions; legislative and regulatory changes that could adversely affect the business of GRT; our future capital expenditures, distributions and acquisitions (including the amount and nature thereof), business strategies, the expansion and growth of our operations, our net sales, gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, net income, cash flow, financial condition, impairments, expenditures, capital structure, organizational structure, and other developments and trends of the real estate industry, and other factors discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Such statements are based on a number of assumptions involving judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive, and market conditions, including without limitation changes in the political and economic climate, economic conditions and fiscal imbalances in the United States, and other major developments, including wars, natural disasters, military actions, and terrorist attacks, epidemics and pandemics, including the outbreak of COVID-19 and its impact on the operations and financial condition of us and the real estate industries in which we operate.
While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs, assumptions and expectations, they are not guarantees of future performance. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Furthermore, we disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, of new information, data or methods, future events or other changes. Moreover, because we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, new risk factors are likely to emerge from time to time. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements and urge you to carefully review the disclosures we make concerning risks in this Quarterly Report and in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should also read our other periodic filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission and other publicly filed documents for further discussion regarding such factors.

2.     Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies since the Company filed its audited financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. For further information about the Company’s accounting policies, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"(“SEC”).
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared by management on the accrual basis of accounting and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), and in conjunction with rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include accounts and related adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period. Operating results for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. In addition, see the risk factors identified in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include all accounts of the Company, the GRT OP, and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions are not shown on the consolidated statements. However, each property-owning entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary which is a special purpose entity ("SPE"(“SPE”), whose assets and credit are not available to satisfy the debts or obligations of any other entity, except to the extent required with respect to any co-borrower or guarantor under the same credit facility.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Change in Consolidated Financial Statements Presentation
Certain amounts in the Company's prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Investment in unconsolidated entities has been reclassified to other assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets all periods presented.
Per Share Data
The Company reports earnings per share for the period as (1) basic earnings per share computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period,
and (2) diluted earnings per share computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, including common stock equivalents. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no material common stock equivalents that would have a dilutive effect on earnings (loss) per share for common stockholders.
Segment Information
ASC 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting financial and descriptive information about a public entity’s reportable segments. The Company internally evaluates all of the properties and interests therein as 1 reportable segment.

Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code ("Code"(“Code”). To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements. The Company intends to adhere to these requirements and maintain its REIT status for the current year and subsequent years. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income taxes on taxable income that is distributed to stockholders. However, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income, if any. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will then be subject to federal income taxes on the taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"(“IRS”) grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the Company satisfied the REIT requirements and distributed all of its taxable income.
Pursuant to the Code, the Company has elected to treat its corporate subsidiary as a taxable REIT subsidiary (a "TRS"“TRS”). In general, the TRS may perform non-customary services for the Company’s tenants and may engage in any real estate or non-real estate-related business. The TRS will be subject to corporate federal and state income tax.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of consideration paid over the fair value of underlying identifiable net assets of business acquired. The Company's goodwill has an indeterminate life and is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company takes a qualitative approach to consider whether an impairment of goodwill exists prior to quantitatively determining the fair value of the reporting unit in step one of the impairment test. The Company performs its annual assessment on October 1st.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Changes to GAAP are established by the FASB in the form of ASUs to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Other than the ASUs discussed below, the FASB has not recently issued any other ASUs that the Company expects to be applicable and have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements
During the first quarter of 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

2021 Acquisition
CCIT II Merger
The CCIT II Merger was accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC 805, with the Company treated as the accounting acquirer. The total purchase price was allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their relative fair values. Intangible assets were recognized at their relative fair values in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles. Based on an evaluation of the relevant factors and the guidance in ASC 805 requiring significant management judgment, the entity considered the acquirer for accounting purposes is also the legal acquirer. In order to make this consideration, various factors have been analyzed including which entity issued its equity interests, relative voting rights, existence of minority interests (if any), control of the board of directors, management composition, existence of a premium as it applies to the exchange ratio, relative size, transaction initiation, operational structure, relative composition of employees, surviving brand and name, and other factors. The strongest factor identified was the relative size of the Company as compared to CCIT II. Based on financial measures, the Company was a significantly larger entity than CCIT II and its stockholders hold the majority of the voting shares of the Company.
The assets (including identifiable intangible assets) and liabilities (including executory contracts and other commitments) of CCIT II as of the effective time of the CCIT II Merger were recorded at their respective relative fair values and added to those of the Company. Transaction costs incurred by the Company were capitalized in the period in which the costs were incurred and services were received. The total purchase price was allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their relative fair values. Intangible assets were recognized at their relative fair values in accordance with ASC 805.
Upon the effective time of the CCIT II Merger on March 1, 2021, each of CCIT II's 67.1 million issued and outstanding shares of common stock were converted into the right to receive 1.392 newly issued shares of the Class E common stock of the Company (approximately 93.5 million shares). Total consideration transferred is calculated as such:

In connection with the CCIT II Merger, the Company incurred various transaction and administrative costs. These costs included advisory fees, legal, tax, accounting, valuation fees, and other costs. These costs were capitalized as a component of the cost of the assets acquired.
The following is a breakdown of the Company's costs incurred related to the CCIT II Merger:

Total CCIT II Merger-related fees$43,599 

Real Estate - Valuation and Purchase Price Allocation
The Company allocates the purchase price to the relative fair value of the tangible assets of a property by valuing the property as if it were vacant. This “as-if vacant” value is estimated using an income, or discounted cash flow, approach that relies upon Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs based on the Company's review of the assumptions a market participant would use. These Level 3 inputs include discount rates, capitalization rates, market rents and comparable sales data for similar properties. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions. In calculating the “as-if vacant” value for the properties acquired during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the Company used a discount rate range of 5.75% to 8.75%.

GRIFFIN REALTY TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JuneSeptember 30, 2021
(Unaudited; dollars in thousands unless otherwise noted and excluding per share amounts)

In determining the fair value of intangible lease assets or liabilities, the Company also considers Level 3 inputs. Acquired above and below-market leases are valued based on the present value of the difference between prevailing market rates and the in-place rates measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases, if applicable. The estimated fair value of acquired in-place at-market tenant leases are the costs that would have been incurred to lease the property to the occupancy level of the property at the date of acquisition. Such estimates include the value associated with leasing commissions, legal and other costs, as well as the estimated period necessary to lease such properties that would be incurred to lease the property to its occupancy level at the time of its acquisition. Acquisition costs associated with asset acquisitions are capitalized during the period they are incurred.
The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation of the properties acquired during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021:

4.     Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
The interests discussed below are deemed to be variable interests in variable interest entities ("VIEs") and, based on an evaluation of the variable interests against the criteria for consolidation, the Company determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of the investments, as the Company does not have power to direct the activities of the entities that most significantly affect their performance. As such, the interest in the VIEs is recorded using the equity method of accounting in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Under the equity method, the investments in the unconsolidated entities are stated at cost and adjusted for the Company’s share of net earnings or losses and reduced by distributions. Equity in earnings of real estate ventures is generally recognized based on the allocation of cash distributions upon liquidation of the investment at book value in accordance with the operating agreements. The Company's maximum exposure to losses associated with its unconsolidated investments is primarily limited to its carrying value in the investments.
Digital Realty Trust, Inc.
In September 2014, the Company, through an SPE wholly-owned by the GRT OP, acquired an 80% interest in a joint venture with an affiliate of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. ("Digital"(“Digital”) for $68.4 million, which was funded with equity proceeds raised in the Company's public offerings. The gross acquisition value of the property was $187.5 million, plus closing costs, which was partially financed with debt of $102.0 million. The joint venture was created for purposes of directly or indirectly acquiring, owning, financing, operating and maintaining a data center facility located in Ashburn, Virginia (the "Digital Property"). The Digital Property is approximately 132,300 square feet and consists of certain data processing and communications equipment that is fully leased to a social media company and a financial services company with an average remaining lease term of approximately three years.
In September 2014, the joint venture entered into a secured term loan (the "Digital Loan") in the amount of approximately $102.0 million. The Digital Loan had an original maturity date of September 9, 2019 and included 2 extension options of 12 additional months each beyond the original maturity date. On March 29, 2019, the joint venture executed the first 12-month loan extension. Based on the executed extension, the new loan maturity date was September 9, 2020. The extension did not change the loan amount, rate or other substantive terms. The members were also required to issue a $10.2 million stand-by letter of credit, of which the Company's portion was $8.2 million.
Since the tenant did not execute a long term extension or sign a new lease with the joint venture, the joint venture elected not to accept the loan extension terms offered by the lender and subsequent discussions did not result in an additional loan extension in 2020. As a result, on September 9, 2020, the lender provided a notice of default for non-payment of the unpaid balance of the non-recourse Digital Loan and exercised its right to draw on the stand-by letter of credit. The Company funded the $8.2 million stand-by letter of credit with cash.
As part of the wind up of the joint venture, the Company had recorded a receivable from the Digital managing member of $4.1 million. The $4.1 million payment was received in April 2021 and the Company has written off its remaining investment in the venture. In April 2021, the lender sold the Digital Loan and concurrently, the Digital-GCEAR 1 (Ashburn) joint venture executed a deed in lieu thereby extinguishing any further obligations. The Company is not exposed to any future funding obligations and there are no other future losses expected to arise from this investment.

Third Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
On July 14, 2021, the Company, through the GRT OP, entered into the Third Amendment. The Third Amendment amended the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to decrease the applicable interest rate margin for the $150M 7-Year Term Loan. After giving effect to the Third Amendment, the $150M 7-Year Term Loan accrues interest, at the GRT OP's election, at a per annum rate equal to either (i) the LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.15% or (ii) a base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.15%, in each case such applicable margin to be based on the Company's consolidated leverage ratio. Prior to the Third Amendment, the applicable margin for LIBOR based loans was 1.65% to 2.50% and for base rate loans was 0.65% to 1.50%, in each case based on the Company's consolidated leverage ratio. All other terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement were unchanged. No new term loan borrowings were incurred under the Third Amendment. The applicable rate for the $150M 7-Year Term Loan decreased 35 basis points from 1.75% to 1.40%.
Debt Covenant Compliance
Pursuant to the terms of the Company's mortgage loans and the KeyBank Loans, the GRT OP, in consolidation with the Company, is subject to certain loan compliance covenants. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021.

6.     Interest Rate Contracts
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both business operations and economic conditions. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the values of which are determined by expected cash payments principally related to borrowings and interest rates. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
Derivative Instruments
The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to hedge the variable cash flows associated with certain existing or forecasted LIBOR based variable-rate debt, including the Company's KeyBank Loans. The change in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"(“AOCI”) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company's variable-rate debt.

8.     Fair Value Measurements

The Company is required to disclose fair value information about all financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. The Company measures and discloses the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities utilizing a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions. This hierarchy consists of three broad levels, as follows: (i) quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, (ii) "significant“significant other observable inputs," and (iii) "significant“significant unobservable inputs." "Significant” “Significant other observable inputs"inputs” can include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. "Significant“Significant unobservable inputs"inputs” are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, since there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances in which the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. There were no transfers between the levels in the fair value hierarchy during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020.

The following table sets forth the assets and liabilities that the Company measures at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

consolidated financial statements substantially approximate their fair value as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The fair value of the 10 mortgage loans in the table below is estimated by discounting each loan’s principal balance over the remaining term of the mortgage using current borrowing rates available to the Company for debt instruments with similar terms and maturities. The Company determined that the mortgage debt valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, as the fair value is based on current pricing for debt with similar terms as the in-place debt.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP)
The Company has adopted the DRP, which allows stockholders to have dividends and other distributions otherwise distributable to them invested in additional shares of common stock. No sales commissions or dealer manager fees will be paid on shares sold through the DRP, but the DRP shares will be charged the applicable distribution fee payable with respect to all shares of the applicable class. The purchase price per share under the DRP is equal to the net asset value ("NAV") per share applicable to the class of shares purchased, calculated using the most recently published NAV available at the time of reinvestment. The Company may amend or terminate the DRP for any reason at any time upon 10 days' prior written notice to stockholders, which may be provided through the Company's filings with the SEC.
In connection with a potential strategic transaction, on February 26, 2020, the Board approved the temporary suspension of the DRP, effective March 8, 2020. On July 16, 2020, the Board approved the reinstatement of the DRP, effective July 27, 2020 and an amendment of the DRP to allow for the use of the most recently published NAV per share of the applicable share class available at the time of reinvestment as the DRP purchase price for each share class.
On July 17, 2020, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3 for the registration of up to $100 million in shares pursuant to the Company's DRP (the “DRP Offering”). The DRP Offering may be terminated at any time upon 10 days’ prior written notice to stockholders.

On November 7, 2019, the Board amended and restated the SRP, effective as of December 12, 2019, in order to (i) provide for redemption sought upon a stockholder’s determination of incompetence or incapacitation; (ii) clarify the circumstances under which a determination of incompetence or incapacitation will entitle a stockholder to such redemption; and (iii) make certain other clarifying changes.

In connection with a potential strategic transaction, on February 26, 2020, the Board approved the temporary suspension of the SRP, effective March 28, 2020. On July 16, 2020, the Board approved the partial reinstatement of the SRP, effective August 17, 2020, subject to the following limitations: (A) redemptions will be limited to those sought upon a stockholder’s death, qualifying disability, or determination of incompetence or incapacitation in accordance with the terms of the SRP, and (B) the quarterly cap on aggregate redemptions will be equal to the aggregate NAV, as of the last business day of the previous quarter, of the shares issued pursuant to the DRP during such quarter. Settlements of share redemptions will be made within the first three business days of the following quarter. Redemption activity during the quarter is listed below.

Under the SRP, the Company will redeem shares as of the last business day of each quarter. The redemption price will be equal to the NAV per share for the applicable class generally on the 13th day of the month prior to quarter end (which will be the most recently published NAV). Redemption requests must be received by 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the second to last business day of the applicable quarter. Redemption requests exceeding the quarterly cap will be filled on a pro rata basis. With respect to any pro rata treatment, redemption requests following the death or qualifying disability of a stockholder will be considered first, as a group, followed by requests where pro rata redemption would result in a stockholder owning less than the minimum balance of $2,500 of shares of the Company's common stock, which will be redeemed in full to the extent there are available funds, with any remaining available funds allocated pro rata among all other redemption requests. All unsatisfied redemption requests must be resubmitted after the start of the next quarter, or upon the recommencement of the SRP, as applicable.
There are several restrictions under the SRP. Stockholders generally must hold their shares for one year before submitting their shares for redemption under the program; however, the Company will waive the one-year holding period in the event of the death or qualifying disability of a stockholder. Shares issued pursuant to the DRP are not subject to the one-year holding period. In addition, the SRP generally imposes a quarterly cap on aggregate redemptions of the Company's shares equal to a value of up to 5% of the aggregate NAV of the outstanding shares as of the last business day of the previous quarter, subject to the further limitations as indicated in the August 8, 2019 amendments discussed above.
As the value on the aggregate redemptions of the Company's shares is outside the Company's control, the 5% quarterly cap is considered to be temporary equity and is presented as common stock subject to redemption on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

10.     Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests represent limited partnership interests in the GRT OP in which the Company is the general partner. General partnership units and limited partnership units of the GRT OP were issued as part of the initial capitalization of the GRT OP and GCEAR II Operating Partnership, in conjunction with members of management's contribution of certain assets, other contributions, and in connection with the self-administration transaction as discussed in Note 1, Organization.
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, noncontrolling interests were approximately 9.0% of total shares and 9.6%9.3% of weighted average shares outstanding (both measures assuming GRT OP Units were converted to common stock). The Company has evaluated the terms of the limited partnership interests in the GRT OP, and as a result, has classified limited partnership interests issued in the initial capitalization, in conjunction with the contributed assets and in connection with the self-administration transaction, as noncontrolling interests, which are presented as a component of permanent equity, except as discussed below.
The Company evaluates individual noncontrolling interests for the ability to recognize the noncontrolling interest as permanent equity on the consolidated balance sheets at the time such interests are issued and on a continual basis. Any noncontrolling interest that fails to qualify as permanent equity has been reclassified as temporary equity and adjusted to the greater of (a) the carrying amount or (b) its redemption value as of the end of the period in which the determination is made.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the limited partners of the GRT OP owned approximately 31.8 million GRT OP Units, which were issued to affiliated parties and unaffiliated third parties in exchange for the contribution of certain properties to the Company, and in connection with the self-administration transaction and other services.

Noncontrolling interests subject to redemption
Operating partnership units issued pursuant to the Will Partners property contribution are not included in permanent equity on the consolidated balance sheets. The partners holding these units can cause the general partner to redeem the units for the cash value, as defined in the GRT OP agreement. As the general partner does not control these redemptions, these units are presented on the consolidated balance sheets as noncontrolling interest subject to redemption at their redeemable value. The net income (loss) and distributions attributed to these limited partners is allocated proportionately between common stockholders and other noncontrolling interests that are not considered redeemable.

Dealer Manager Agreement
The Company entered into a dealer manager agreement and associated form of participating dealer agreement (the "Dealer“Dealer Manager Agreement"Agreement”) with the dealer manager for the Follow-On Offering. The terms of the Dealer Manager Agreement are substantially similar to the terms of the dealer manager agreement from the Company's initial public offering ("IPO"(“IPO”), except as it relates to the share classes offered and the fees to be received by the dealer manager. The Follow-On Offering terminated on September 20, 2020. See Note 9, Equity.
Subject to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.'s limitations on underwriting compensation, under the Dealer Manager Agreement the Company required payment to the dealer manager of a distribution fee for ongoing services rendered to stockholders by participating broker-dealers or broker-dealers servicing investors’ accounts, referred to as servicing broker-dealers. The fee accrued daily, is paid monthly in arrears, and is calculated based on the average daily NAV for the applicable month.
Conflicts of Interest
Affiliated Former Dealer Manager
Since Griffin Capital Securities, LLC, the Company's former dealer manager, is an affiliate of the Company's former sponsor, the Company did not have the benefit of an independent due diligence review and investigation of the type normally performed by an unaffiliated, independent underwriter in connection with the offering of securities. The Company's former dealer manager is also serving as the dealer manager for Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III, Inc. and Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV, Inc., each of which are publicly-registered, non-traded REITs, as wholesale marketing agent for Griffin Institutional Access Real Estate Fund and Griffin Institutional Access Credit Fund both of which are non-diversified, closed-end management investment companies that are operated as interval funds under the 1940 Act, and as dealer manager or master placement agent for various private offerings.
Administrative Services Agreement
In connection with the EA Mergers, the Company assumed, as the successor of EA-1 and the GRT OP, an Administrative Services Agreement (the "Administrative“Administrative Services Agreement"Agreement”), pursuant to which Griffin Capital Company, LLC ("GCC"(“GCC”) and Griffin Capital, LLC ("(“GC LLC"LLC”) continue to provide office space and certain operational and administrative services at cost to the GRT OP, Griffin Capital Essential Asset TRS, Inc., and Griffin Capital Real Estate Company, LLC ("GRECO"(“GRECO”), which may include, without limitation, the shared information technology, human resources, legal, due diligence, marketing, customer service, events, operations, accounting and administrative support services set forth in the Administrative Services Agreement. The Company pays GCC a monthly amount based on the actual costs anticipated to be incurred by GCC for the provision of such office space and services until the Company elects to provide such space and/or services for itself or through another provider, which amount is initially $0.2 million per month, based on an approved budget. Such costs are reconciled quarterly and a full review of the costs will be performed at least annually. In addition, the Company will directly pay or reimburse GCC for the actual cost of any reasonable third-party expenses incurred in connection with the provision of such services.

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

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Consolidated Financial Statements, and the notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Overview
Griffin Realty Trust, Inc. is an internally managed, publicly-registered, non-traded REIT. We are a multi-billion-dollar enterprise committed to creating exceptional value for all of our stakeholders through the ownership and operation of a diversified portfolio of strategically-located, high-quality, business-essential office and industrial properties that are primarily net leased to single tenants we have determined to be creditworthy and nationally-recognized, single tenants.
The GRT platform was founded in 2009 and we have since grown to become one of the largest office and industrial-focused net-lease REITs in the United States. Since our founding, our mission has been consistent – to generate long-term results for our stockholders by combining the durability of high-quality corporate tenants, the stability of net leases and the power of proactive management. To achieve this mission, we leverage the skills and expertise of our employees, who have experience across a range of disciplines including acquisitions, dispositions, asset management, property management, development, finance, law and accounting. They are led by an experienced senior management team with an average of approximately 30 years of commercial real estate experience.
On July 1, 2021, we changed our name from Griffin Capital Essential Asset REIT, Inc. to Griffin Realty Trust, Inc. and our operating partnership changed its name from Griffin Capital Essential Asset Operating Partnership L.P. to GRT OP, L.P.
On March 1, 2021, we completed our previously announced acquisition of Cole Office & Industrial REIT (CCIT II), Inc. ("(“CCIT II"II”) for approximately $1.3 billion, including transaction costs, in a stock-for-stock transaction (the "CCIT“CCIT II Merger"Merger”). This transaction is a continuation of our strategy since inception to strategically grow the portfolio with assets consistent with our investment strategy, improve our portfolio statistics, strengthen the balance sheet, and maximize stockholder value. At the effective time of the CCIT II Merger, each issued and outstanding share of CCIT II Class A common stock and each issued and outstanding share of CCIT II Class T common stock was converted into the right to receive 1.392 shares of our Class E common stock.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we owned 121 properties (including one land parcel held for future development) in 26 states. Our contractual net rent for the 12-month period subsequent to JuneSeptember 30, 2021 is expected to be approximately $358.0$357.6 million with approximately 63.3%64.7% expected to be generated by properties leased and/or guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by companies we have determined to be creditworthy. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021 our portfolio was approximately 95.0%95.1% leased (based on square footage), 94.8%94.4% occupied (based on square footage) with a weighted average remaining lease term of 6.66.5 years, weighted average annual rent increases of approximately 2.0%.
COVID-19 and Outlook
We are closely monitoring the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and geographies, including how it has impacted, and may continue to impact, our tenants and business partners. The COVID-19 pandemic in many countries, including the United States, has significantly adversely impacted global economic activity and has contributed to volatility and pressure in financial markets. Many countries, including the United States, have reacted to the COVID-19 pandemic by instituting various levels of quarantines, business and school closures and travel restrictions. Certain states and cities, including those where we own properties and where our principal place of business is located, have instituted similar measures, including various levels of “shelter in place” rules, and restrictions on the types of business that may continue to operate at full capacity. We cannot predict when restrictions currently in place will be lifted to some extent or entirely, and to whether or not restrictions though currently lifted, may later be put back in place. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted almost every industry, directly or indirectly, including industries in which we and our tenants operate, which could result in a general decline in rents and an increased incidence of defaults under existing leases. The extent to which federal, state or local governmental authorities grant rent relief or other relief or enact amnesty programs applicable to our tenants in response to the COVID-19 outbreak may exacerbate the negative impacts that a slow down or recession could have on us. Demand for office space nationwide has declined and may continue to decline due to the current economic downturn, bankruptcies, downsizing, layoffs, government regulations and restrictions on travel and permitted

businesses operations that may be extended in duration and become recurring, increased usage of teleworking arrangements and cost cutting resulting from the pandemic, which could lead to lower office occupancy.
While we did not incur significant disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic during the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we are unable to predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties. These uncertainties include the continued severity, duration, transmission rate and geographic spread of COVID-19 in the United States, the speed of the vaccine roll-out, effectiveness and willingness of people to take COVID-19 vaccines, the duration of associated immunity and their efficacy against emerging variants and mutations of COVID-19, the extent and effectiveness of other containment measures taken, and the response of the overall economy, the financial markets and the population, particularly in areas in which we operate. If we cannot operate our properties so as to meet our financial expectations, because of these or other risks, we may be prevented from growing the values of our real estate properties, and our financial condition, including our NAV per share, results of operations, cash flows, performance, or our ability to satisfy our debt obligations and/or to maintain our level of distributions to our stockholders may be adversely impacted or disrupted. We cannot predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our tenants and other business partners; however, any material effect on these parties could adversely impact us. As of AugustNovember 2, 2021, we received April-JulyJuly-October 2021 rent payments from 100% of our portfolio. While there are no current active short-term rent relief inquiries, we are unable to predict the amount of future rent relief inquiries and the April-JulyJuly-October 2021 collections and rent relief requests to-date may not be indicative of collections or requests in any future period. Additionally, not all tenant inquiries will ultimately result in lease concessions.

While the long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business is not yet known, our management believes we are well-positioned from a liquidity perspective with $510.5$540.6 million of immediate liquidity as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, consisting of  $376.5 million undrawn on our $750 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the" Revolving(the “Revolving Credit Facility"Facility”) and $134.0$164.1 million of cash on hand. Included in these amounts is $125.0 million from our Revolving Credit Facility that we borrowed in April 2020 for potential upcoming capital expenditure requirements and to provide us with a flexible conservative cash management position. Additionally, our Second Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement increased our credit facility availability from $1.5 billion to $1.9 billion. See Part I "Item 1A. Risk Factors", contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for a further discussion about risks that COVID-19 directly or indirectly may pose to our business.

Our primary focus continues to be protecting the health and well-being of our employees and ensuring that there is limited operational disruption as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Some of the primary steps we have taken to accomplish these objectives were: (1) initially instituting elective telework arrangements and then following with mandatory telework arrangements with minor exceptions for certain “essential” business functions, (2) capital investment in technology solutions and hardware, as necessary, to allow for a fully remote workforce, (3) mandatory self-quarantines where necessary, (4) recommendations and FAQs to all employees regarding best practices to avoid infection, as well as steps to take in the event of an infection, (5) temporary prohibition of business travel, other than essential business travel approved by management, and (6) creation of an internal COVID-19 task force to discuss additional safety measures to ensure the safe return of our employees to the office, which plans will be finalized in accordance with applicable local guidelines, when such guidelines are established.
NAV and NAV per Share Calculation
On October 1, 2021, we temporarily suspended our quarterly publishing of net asset value per share of common stock. Our Board including a majorityauthorized the suspension in light of our independent directors, has adopted valuation procedures, as amended from time to time,certain strategic initiatives that contain a comprehensive set of methodologies to be used in connection with the calculation of our NAV. As a public company, we are required to issue financial statements generally based on historical cost in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the United States as applicable to our financial statements. To calculate our NAV for the purpose of establishing a purchase and redemption price for our shares, we have adopted a model, as explained below, which adjusts the value of certain of our assets from historical cost to fair value. As a result, our NAV may differ from the amount reported as stockholder’s equity on the face of our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. When the fair value of our assets and liabilities are calculated for the purposes of determining our NAV per share, the calculation is generally in accordance with GAAP principles set forth in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. However, our valuation procedures and our NAV are not subject to GAAP and will not be subject to independent audit. Our NAV may differ from equity reflected on our audited financial statements, even if we are required to adopt a fair value basis of accounting for GAAP financial statement purposes in the future. Furthermore, no rule or regulation requires that we calculate NAV in a certain way. Although we believe our NAV calculation methodologies are consistent with standard industry practices, there is no established guidance among public REITs, whether listed or not, for calculating NAV in order to establish a purchase and redemption price. As a result, other public REITs may use different methodologies or assumptions to determine NAV.

On February 26, 2020, our Board approved the temporary suspension of the primary portion of our Follow-On Offering, effective February 27, 2020. The Follow-On Offering terminated with the expiration of the registration statement on September 20, 2020. After March 31, 2020, we (i) ceased publishing a daily estimate of our NAV per share; (ii) are continuing our internal procedures for calculating NAV per share; and (iii) will continue to publish updated estimates of our NAV per share on a quarterly basis. We published our June 30, 2021 NAV per share on July 16, 2021.
Prior to the suspension (and subsequent expiration) of our Follow-On Offering, we were offering to the public four classes of shares of our common stock, Class T shares, Class S shares, Class D shares and Class I shares with NAV-based pricing. The share classes had different selling commissions, dealer manager fees and ongoing distribution fees. Our NAV is calculated for each of these classes and our Class A shares, Class AA shares, Class AAA shares and Class E shares after the end of each business day that the New York Stock Exchange is open for unrestricted trading, by our NAV accountant, ALPS Fund Services, Inc., a third-party firm approved by our Board, including a majority of our independent directors. Our Board, including a majority of our independent directors, may replace our NAV accountant with another party, if it is deemed appropriate to do so. Our Board, including a majority of the independent directors, has adopted valuation procedures that contain a comprehensive set of methodologies to be used in connection with the calculation of our NAV.
Our most significant source of net income is property income. We accrue estimated income and expenses on a daily basis based on annual budgets as adjusted from time to time to reflect changes in the business throughout the year. For the first month following a property acquisition, we calculate and accrue portfolio income with respect to such property based on the performance of the property before the acquisition and the contractual arrangements in place at the time of the acquisition, as identified and reviewed through our due diligence and underwriting process in connection with the acquisition. For the purpose of calculating our NAV, all organization and offering costs reduce NAV as part of our estimated income and expense accrual. On a periodic basis, our income and expense accruals are adjusted based on information derived from actual operating results.
We will include the fair value of our liabilities as part of our NAV calculation. Our liabilities include, without limitation, property-level mortgages, interest rate swaps, accrued distributions, the fees payable to the dealer manager, accounts payable, accrued company-level operating expenses, any company or portfolio-level financing arrangements and other liabilities. Liabilities will be valued using widely accepted methodologies specific to each type of liability. Our mortgage debt and related derivatives, if any, will typically be valued at fair value in accordance with GAAP.
Following the calculation and allocation of changes in the aggregate company NAV as described above, NAV for each class is adjusted for accrued distributions and the accrued distribution fee, to determine the current day’s NAV. The purchase price of Class T and Class S shares is equal to the applicable NAV per share plus the applicable selling commission and/or dealer manager fee. Selling commissions and dealer manager fees have no effect on the NAV of any class.
NAV per share for each class is calculated by dividing such class’s NAV at the end of each trading day by the number of shares outstanding for that class on such day.
Under GAAP, we accrued the full cost of the distribution fee as an offering cost for Class T, Class S, and Class D shares up to the 9.0% limit at the time such shares were sold. For purposes of NAV, we recognize the distribution fee as a reduction of NAV on a daily basis as such fee is accrued.currently pursuing. We intend to reduce theresume publishing a quarterly net amountasset value per share of distributions paid to stockholders by the portion of the distribution fee accrued forcommon stock at such class of shares, so that the resulttime as our Board determines is that although the obligation to pay future distribution fees is accrued on a daily basisappropriate and included in the NAV calculation, it is not expected to impact the NAV of the shares because of the adjustment to distributions.no later than one year from our most recent net asset value publication.

Our independent valuation firm utilized the following approaches in calculating our NAV in accordance with our valuation procedures: (i) the discounted cash flow approach for 95 of the properties owned by us prior to the acquisition of the CCIT II Properties (as defined below), (ii) the allocated purchase price for each of the 26 properties in the CCIT II portfolio ("CCIT II Properties") acquired in March 2021, and (iii) the sales comparison approach for the Lynwood land parcel.
The allocated purchase price of all of the CCIT II Properties, including transaction costs, was approximately $1.3 billion, which is included in Gross Real Estate Asset Value. Other Assets, net is higher primarily due to cash proceeds from the sale of two properties and income in excess of distributions during the quarter by us.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We have established accounting policies which conform to GAAP in the United States as contained in the FASB ASC. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to the various transactions had been different, it is possible that different estimates would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may use different estimates and assumptions that may impact the comparability of our financial condition and results of operations to those companies.
For further information about our critical accounting policies, refer to our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations
Overview
Our ability to re-lease space subject to expiring leases will impact our results of operations and is affected by economic and competitive conditions in our markets. Leases that comprise approximately 2.7%1.8% of our base rental revenue will expire during the period from JulyOctober 1, 2021 to JuneSeptember 30, 2022. We assume, based upon internal renewal probability estimates, that some

that some of our tenants will renew and others will vacate and the associated space will be re-let subject to market leasing assumptions. Using the aforementioned assumptions, we expect that the rental rates on the respective new leases may vary from the rates under existing leases expiring during the period from JulyOctober 1, 2021 to JuneSeptember 30, 2022, thereby resulting in revenue that may differ from the current in-place rents.
We are not aware of any other material trends or uncertainties, other than as discussed under "COVID-19“COVID-19 and Outlook"Outlook” above and other than national economic conditions affecting real estate in general, that may reasonably be expected to have a material impact, favorable or unfavorable, on revenues or income from the acquisition, management and operations of properties other than those listed in Part I, Item 1A., Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations
Our management believes that historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or
40

Table of Contents
fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient.
Management is responsible for managing interest rate, hedge and foreign exchange risks. To achieve our objectives, we may borrow at fixed rates or variable rates. In order to mitigate our interest rate risk on certain financial instruments, if any, we may enter into interest rate cap agreements or other hedge instruments and in order to mitigate our risk to foreign currency exposure, if any, we may enter into foreign currency hedges. We view fair value adjustments of derivatives, impairment charges and gains and losses from dispositions of assets as non-recurring items or items which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized, and which are not reflective of ongoing operations and are therefore typically adjusted for when assessing operating performance.
In order to provide a more complete understanding of the operating performance of a REIT, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) promulgated a measure known as Funds from Operations (“FFO”). FFO is defined as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, and gains and losses from sales of depreciable operating property, adding back asset impairment write-downs, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets), and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and preferred distributions. Because FFO calculations exclude such items as depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and gains and losses from sales of operating real estate assets (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates), they facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other REITs. As a result, we believe that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities. It should be noted, however, that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do, making comparisons less meaningful.
Additionally, we use Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) as a non-GAAP financial measure to evaluate our operating performance. AFFO excludes non-routine and certain non-cash items such as revenues in excess of cash received, amortization of stock-based compensation net, deferred rent, amortization of in-place lease valuation, acquisition-related costs, financed termination fee, net of payments received, gain or loss from the extinguishment of debt, unrealized gains (losses) on derivative instruments, write-off transaction costs and other one-time transactions. FFO and AFFO have been revised to include amounts available to both common stockholders and limits partners for all periods presented.
AFFO is a measure used among our peer group, which includes daily NAV REITs. We also believe that AFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the REIT industry. Further, we believe AFFO is useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies.
Management believes that AFFO is a beneficial indicator of our ongoing portfolio performance and ability to sustain our current distribution level. More specifically, AFFO isolates the financial results of our operations. AFFO, however, is not considered an appropriate measure of historical earnings as it excludes certain significant costs that are otherwise included in reported earnings. Further, since the measure is based on historical financial information, AFFO for the period presented may not be indicative of future results or our future ability to pay our dividends. By providing FFO and AFFO, we present information that assists investors in aligning their analysis with management’s analysis of long-term operating activities.
For all of these reasons, we believe the non-GAAP measures of FFO and AFFO, in addition to income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities, as defined by GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful to investors in evaluating the performance of our real estate portfolio. However, a material limitation associated with FFO and AFFO is that they are not indicative of our cash available to fund distributions since other uses of cash, such as capital expenditures at our properties and principal payments of debt, are not deducted when calculating FFO and AFFO. The use of AFFO as a measure of long-term operating performance on value is also limited if we do not continue to operate under our current business plan as noted above. AFFO is useful in assisting management and investors in assessing our ongoing ability to generate cash flow from operations and continue as a going concern in future operating periods, and in particular, after the offering and acquisition stages are complete. However, FFO and AFFO are not useful measures in evaluating NAV because impairments are taken into account in determining NAV but not in determining FFO and AFFO.

Table of Contents
Therefore, FFO and AFFO should not be viewed as a more prominent measure of performance than income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) or to cash flows from operating activities and each should be reviewed in connection with GAAP measurements.

Table of Contents
Neither the SEC, NAREIT, nor any other applicable regulatory body has opined on the acceptability of the adjustments contemplated to adjust FFO in order to calculate AFFO and its use as a non-GAAP performance measure. In the future, the SEC or NAREIT may decide to standardize the allowable exclusions across the REIT industry, and we may have to adjust the calculation and characterization of this non-GAAP measure.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Property rental income is our primary source of operating cash flow and is dependent on a number of factors including occupancy levels and rental rates, as well as our tenants’ ability to pay rent. Our assets provide a relatively consistent level of cash flow that enables us to pay operating expenses, distributions, including preferred equity distribution, redemptions, and for the payment of debt service on our outstanding indebtedness, including repayment of our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, and property secured mortgage loans. Generally, we anticipate that cash needs for items, other than property acquisitions, will be met from funds from operations and our credit facility. We anticipate that cash flows from continuing operations and proceeds from financings, together with existing cash balances, will be adequate to fund our business operations, debt amortization, capital expenditures, and distributions over the next 12 months.
Financing Activities
Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of April 30, 2019 (as amended by the First Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of October 1, 2020, the Second Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 18, 2020 and the Third Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 14, 2021 (the "Third Amendment"“Third Amendment”), the “Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”), with KeyBank, National Association (“KeyBank”), as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, we, through GRT OP, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and a subsidiary of the Company (the “GRT OP”), as the borrower, have been provided with a $1.9 billion credit facility consisting of the Revolving Credit Facility maturing in June 2022 with (subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions) a one-year extension option, a $200 million senior unsecured term loan maturing in June 2023 (the “$200M 5-Year Term Loan”), a $400 million senior unsecured term loan maturing in April 2024 (the “$400M 5-Year Term Loan”), a delayed draw $400 million senior unsecured term loan maturing in December 2025 (the "$400M 5-Year Term Loan 2025”) (collectively, the “KeyBank Loans”), and a $150 million senior unsecured term loan maturing in April 2026 (the “$150M 7-Year Term Loan”). The credit facility also provides the option, subject to obtaining additional commitments from lenders and certain other customary conditions, to increase the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, increase the existing term loans and/or incur new term loans by up to an additional $600 million in the aggregate. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the remaining capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility was $376.5 million.
Based on the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the interest rate for the credit facility varies based on our consolidated leverage ratio and ranges (a) in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, from LIBOR plus 1.30% to LIBOR plus 2.20%, (b) in the case of each of the $200M 5-Year Term Loan, the $400M 5-Year Term Loan, and the $400M 5-Year Term Loan 2025, and the $150M 7-Year Term Loan, from LIBOR plus 1.25% to LIBOR plus 2.15% and (c) in the case of the $150M 7-Year Term Loan, from LIBOR plus 1.65% to LIBOR plus 2.50%. If the GRT OP obtains an investment grade rating of its senior unsecured long term debt from Standard & Poor's Rating Services, Moody's Investors Service, Inc., or Fitch, Inc., the applicable LIBOR margin and base rate margin will vary based on such rating and range (i) in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, from LIBOR plus 0.825% to LIBOR plus 1.55%, (ii) in the case of each of the $200M 5-Year Term Loan, the $400M 5-Year Term Loan and the $400M 5-Year Term Loan 2025, from LIBOR plus 0.90% to LIBOR plus 1.75% and (iii) in the case of the $150M 7-Year Term Loan, from LIBOR plus 1.40%0.90% to LIBOR plus 2.35%1.75%. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides procedures for determining a replacement reference rate in the event that LIBOR is discontinued. See Part I "Item 1A. Risk Factors", of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for a discussion about risks that the replacement of LIBOR with an alternative reference rate may adversely affect interest rates on our current or future indebtedness and may otherwise adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
On March 1, 2021, we exercised our right to draw on the $400M 5-Year Term Loan 2025 to repay CCIT II's existing debt balance in connection with the CCIT II Merger.
On July 14, 2021, we, through the GRT OP, entered into the Third Amendment, which amended the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to decrease the applicable interest rate margin for the $150M 7-Year Term Loan.
Derivative Instruments
As discussed in Note 6, Interest Rate Contracts, to the consolidated financial statements, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to hedge the variable cash flows associated with certain existing or forecasted, LIBOR-based variable-rate debt, including our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Derivatives were

On July 17, 2020, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 for the registration of up to $100 million in shares pursuant to our DRP (the “DRP Offering”). The DRP Offering may be terminated at any time upon 10 days prior written notice to stockholders.

Perpetual Convertible Preferred Shares
Upon consummation of the EA Mergers (as defined in Note 1, Organization, to the consolidated financial statements), we issued 5,000,000 Series A Preferred Shares to the Purchaser (defined below).

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser has agreed to purchase an additional 5,000,000 Series A Preferred Shares (the "Second Issuance"“Second Issuance”) at a later date (the "Second“Second Issuance Date"Date”) for an additional purchase price of $125 million subject to approval by the Purchaser’s internal investment committee and the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Distributions will be paid to our stockholders as of the record date selected by our Board. We expect to continue to pay distributions monthly based on daily declaration and record dates. We expect to pay distributions regularly unless our results of operations, our general financial condition, general economic conditions, or other factors inhibit us from doing so. Distributions will be authorized at the discretion of our Board, which will be directed, in substantial part, by its obligation to cause us to comply with the REIT requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The funds we receive from operations that are available for distribution may be affected by a number of factors, including the following:
our operating and interest expenses;

our operating and interest expenses;
the amount of distributions or dividends received by us from our indirect real estate investments;
our ability to keep our properties occupied;
our ability to maintain or increase rental rates;
tenant improvements, capital expenditures and reserves for such expenditures;
the issuance of additional shares; and
financings and refinancings.

Distributions may be funded with operating cash flow from our properties, any future public offerings, or a combination thereof. To the extent that we do not have taxable income, distributions paid will be considered a return of capital to stockholders.

(1)Distributions are paid on a monthly basis in arrears. Distributions for all record dates of a given month are paid on or about the first business day of the following month. Total cash distributions declared but not paid as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021 were $10.3 million for common stockholders and noncontrolling interests.

For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we paid and declared cash distributions of approximately $51.2$80.0 million to common stockholders including shares issued pursuant to the DRP and approximately $5.5$8.3 million to the limited partners of the GRT OP, as compared to FFO attributable to common stockholders and limited partners and AFFO available to common stockholders and limited partners for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 of approximately $102.1$160.2 million and $101.2$156.4 million, respectively. The payment of distributions from sources other than FFO or AFFO may reduce the amount of proceeds available for investment and operations or cause us to incur additional interest expense as a result of borrowed funds. From our inception through JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we paid approximately $904.7$936.2 million of cumulative distributions (excluding preferred distributions), including approximately $333.2$341.2 million reinvested through our DRP, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $601.9$627.8 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we had approximately $2.4 million in an outstanding letter of credit which is not reflected on ourno off balance sheet.sheet arrangements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risks include risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market-sensitive instruments. We expect that the primary market risk to which we will be exposed is interest rate risk, including the risk of changes in the underlying rates on our variable rate debt. Our current indebtedness consists of the KeyBank Loans and other loans and property secured mortgages as described in Note 5, Debt, to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These instruments were not entered into for trading purposes.
Our interest rate risk management objectives will be to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives, we may borrow at fixed rates or variable rates. We may also utilize a variety of financial instruments, including interest rate swap agreements, caps, floors, and other interest rate exchange contracts. We will not enter into these financial instruments for speculative purposes. The use of these types of instruments to hedge a portion of our exposure to changes in interest rates carries additional risks, such as counterparty credit risk and the legal enforceability of hedging contracts.
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, our debt consisted of approximately $1.8 billion in fixed rate debt (including the interest rate swaps) and approximately $773.5 million in variable rate debt (excluding unamortized deferred financing cost and discounts, net, of approximately $10.7$10.1 million.) As of December 31, 2020, our debt consisted of approximately $1.8 billion in fixed rate debt (including the effect of interest rate swaps) and approximately $373.5 million in variable rate debt (excluding unamortized deferred financing cost and discounts, net, of approximately $12.2 million). Changes in interest rates have different impacts on the fixed and variable rate debt. A change in interest rates on fixed rate debt impacts its fair value but has no effect on interest incurred or cash flows. A change in interest rates on variable rate debt could affect the interest incurred and cash flows and its fair value.
Our future earnings and fair values relating to variable rate financial instruments are primarily dependent upon prevalent market rates of interest, such as LIBOR. However, our interest rate swap agreements are intended to reduce the effects of interest rate changes. The effect of an increase of 100 basis points in interest rates, assuming a LIBOR floor of 0%, on our variable-rate debt, including our KeyBank Loans, after consideringconsidering the effect of our interest rate swap agreements, would decrease our future earnings and cash flows by approximately $8.3 million annually.
Interest rate risk amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. These analyses do not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur. Further, in the event of a change of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, these analyses assume no changes in our financial structure.
