KBS REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST I, INC.
CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2011
(unaudited)
KBS Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on June 13, 2005 as a Maryland corporation and has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Substantially all of the Company’s assets are held by, and the Company conducts substantially all of its operations through, KBS Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and its subsidiaries. The Company is the sole general partner of and directly owns a 99% partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, KBS REIT Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“KBS REIT Holdings”), owns the remaining 1% partnership interest in the Operating Partnership and is its sole limited partner.
The Company owns a diverse portfolio of real estate and real estate-related investments. As of September 30, 2011, the Company owned 54 real estate properties (including one office property that is held for sale and excluding the GKK Properties defined below), one master lease, nine real estate loans receivable, two investments in securities directly or indirectly backed by commercial mortgage loans, and a preferred membership interest in a real estate joint venture. Also, as of September 30, 2011, the Company owned a 10-story condominium building with 62 units acquired through foreclosure, of which four condominium units, two retail spaces and parking spaces have not been sold and are held for sale.
In addition, on September 1, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), the Company, through indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, “KBS”), entered into a Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with, among other parties, GKK Stars Acquisition LLC (“GKK Stars”), the wholly owned subsidiary of Gramercy Capital Corp. (“Gramercy”) that indirectly owns the Gramercy real estate portfolio, to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS in satisfaction of certain debt obligations owed by wholly owned subsidiaries of Gramercy to KBS. The Settlement Agreement contemplates the transfer of the equity interests in certain subsidiaries of Gramercy (the “Equity Interests”) that indirectly own or, with respect to a limited number of properties, hold a leasehold interest in, approximately 815 properties (the “GKK Properties”), including approximately 524 bank branch properties and approximately 291 office buildings, operations centers and other properties, as well as a 99% interest in a joint venture that owns approximately 52 bank branch properties occupied primarily by Citizens Bank (the “Citizens Bank Joint Venture”). For more information, see Note 3, “Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan.” Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, as of September 30, 2011, KBS had indirectly taken title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, had indirectly taken a leasehold interest in, 317 of the GKK Properties and will take title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, will take a leasehold interest in, an additional 498 of the GKK Properties no later than December 15, 2011.
Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, the business of the Company is managed by KBS Capital Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”), an affiliate of the Company, pursuant to an advisory agreement with the Company (the “Advisory Agreement”) in effect through November 8, 2012. The Advisory Agreement may be renewed for an unlimited number of one‑year periods upon the mutual consent of the Advisor and the Company. Either party may terminate the Advisory Agreement upon 60 days written notice. The Advisor owns 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
Upon commencing its initial public offering (the “Offering”), the Company retained KBS Capital Markets Group LLC (the “Dealer Manager”), an affiliate of the Advisor, to serve as the dealer manager of the Offering pursuant to a dealer manager agreement dated January 27, 2006 (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”). The Company ceased offering shares of common stock in its primary offering on May 30, 2008 and continues to issue shares of common stock under its dividend reinvestment plan.
The Company sold 171,109,494 shares of common stock in its primary offering for gross offering proceeds of $1.7 billion. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had sold 25,013,478 shares of common stock under its dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $211.0 million. Also as of September 30, 2011, the Company had redeemed 6,752,755 of the shares sold in the Offering for $60.7 million.

2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
There have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies since it filed its audited financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. For further information about the Company’s accounting policies, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, KBS REIT Holdings, the Operating Partnership, their direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, and joint ventures the Company controls or for which it is the primary beneficiary, as well as the related amounts of noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
The Company evaluates the need to consolidate joint ventures and consolidates joint ventures that it determines to be variable interest entities for which it is the primary beneficiary. The Company also consolidates joint ventures that are not determined to be variable interest entities, but for which it exercises control over major operating decisions through substantive participation rights, such as approval of budgets, selection of property managers, asset management, investment activity and changes in financing. In addition, because the Settlement Agreement provides that KBS must accept the Transfer of all of the remaining Equity Interests that have not been transferred as of December 15, 2011, with the only requirement being the passage of time, and because for accounting purposes (although not for legal purposes), the Company is deemed to control the decisions that affect the economic outcome of all of the Equity Interests and all of the GKK Properties as of the Effective Date, the Company has consolidated all of the assets and liabilities and operations subject to the Settlement Agreement beginning September 1, 2011.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and condensed notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair and consistent presentation of the results for such periods. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011. Any reference to the number of properties and square footage is unaudited and outside the scope of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm’s review of the financial statements in accordance with the Standards of United States Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements and condensed notes thereto in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of prior periods. In addition, the Company disposed of two and nine properties during the year ended December 31, 2010 and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, and classified one property as held for sale as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. As a result, certain adjustments were made to the consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and footnote disclosures for all periods presented.

Real Estate
Impairment of Real Estate and Related Intangible Assets and Liabilities
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable or realized. When indicators of potential impairment suggest that the carrying value of real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable, the Company assesses the recoverability by estimating whether the Company will recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities through its undiscounted future cash flows and its eventual disposition. If, based on this analysis, the Company does not believe that it will be able to recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities, the Company would record an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities.
Real Estate Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
The Company generally considers real estate to be “held for sale” when the following criteria are met: (i) management commits to a plan to sell the property, (ii) the property is available for sale immediately, (iii) the property is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value, (iv) the sale of the property within one year is considered probable and (v) significant changes to the plan to sell are not expected. Real estate that is held for sale and its related assets are classified as “real estate held for sale” and “assets related to real estate held for sale,” respectively, for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Notes payable and other liabilities related to real estate held for sale are classified as “notes payable related to real estate held for sale” and “liabilities related to real estate held for sale,” respectively, for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Real estate classified as held for sale is no longer depreciated and is reported at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated fair value less costs to sell. Additionally, the Company records the operating results related to real estate that has either been disposed of or is deemed to be held for sale as discontinued operations for all periods presented if the operations have been or are expected to be eliminated and the Company will not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the property following the sale.
Real Estate Loans Receivable
The Company’s real estate loans receivable are recorded at amortized cost, net of loan loss reserves, and evaluated for impairment at each balance sheet date. The amortized cost of a real estate loan receivable is the outstanding unpaid principal balance, net of unamortized acquisition premiums or discounts and unamortized costs and fees directly associated with the origination or acquisition of the loan.
The reserve for loan losses is a valuation allowance that reflects management’s estimate of loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. The reserve is adjusted through “Provision for loan losses” on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and is decreased by charge-offs to specific loans when losses are confirmed. The reserve for loan losses includes a portfolio-based component and an asset-specific component.
The asset-specific reserve component relates to reserves for losses on loans considered impaired. The Company considers a loan to be impaired when, based upon current information and events, it believes that it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company also considers a loan to be impaired if it grants the borrower a concession through a modification of the loan terms or if it expects to receive assets (including equity interests in the borrower) with fair values that are less than the carrying value of the loan in satisfaction of the loan. A reserve is established when the present value of payments expected to be received, observable market prices, the estimated fair value of the collateral (for loans that are dependent on the collateral for repayment) or amounts expected to be received in satisfaction of a loan are lower than the carrying value of that loan.

The portfolio-based reserve component covers the pool of loans that do not have asset-specific reserves. A provision for loan losses is recorded when available information as of each balance sheet date indicates that it is probable that a loss occurred in the pool of loans and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, but the Company does not know which specific loans within the pool will ultimately result in losses. Required reserve balances for this pool of loans are derived from estimated probabilities of default and estimated loss severities assuming a default occurs. On a quarterly basis, the Company’s management assigns estimated probabilities of default and loss severities to each loan in the portfolio based on factors such as the debt service coverage of the underlying collateral, the estimated fair value of the collateral, the significance of the borrower’s investment in the collateral, the financial condition of the borrower and/or its sponsors, the likelihood that the borrower and/or its sponsors would allow the loan to default, the Company’s willingness and ability to step in as owner in the event of default, and other pertinent factors.
Pledged Government Securities
In connection with the Settlement Agreement, the Company will receive a portfolio of treasury securities that is pledged to provide a portion of the principal and interest payments for mortgage debt collateralized by certain GKK Properties. Since the Company does not intend to sell the securities, the securities are classified as held to maturity and are presented on an amortized cost basis and not at fair value.
Per Share Data
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock equals basic net income (loss) per share of common stock as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Distributions declared per common share assumes each share was issued and outstanding each day during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, distributions were based on daily record dates and calculated at a rate of $0.00143836 per share per day. Each day during the periods from January 1, 2011 through September 30, 2011 and January 1, 2010 through September 30, 2010 was a record date for distributions.
Industry Segments
The Company’s segments are based on the Company’s method of internal reporting which classifies its operations by investment type: (i) real estate, (ii) real estate-related and (iii) commercial properties primarily leased to financial institutions received or to be received under the Settlement Agreement. For financial data by segment, see Note 17, “Segment Information.”
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Updates
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU No. 2011-05”). ASU No. 2011-05 requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In a single continuous statement, the entity is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income. ASU No. 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. The amendments in this update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-05 will require the Company to change the presentation of comprehensive income in its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (“ASU No. 2011-04”). ASU No. 2011-04 updates and further clarifies requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. Additionally, ASU No. 2011-04 clarifies the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurements. ASU No. 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is applied prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2011-04 will have a material impact to its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-02, Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring (“ASU No. 2011-02”). ASU No. 2011-02 updated accounting guidance to clarify certain determining factors, such as when a concession has been granted and when a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties, in evaluating whether or not a debt restructuring is deemed to be a “Troubled Debt Restructuring.” The amendments in this update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and are applied retrospectively to the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The Company adopted ASU No. 2011-02 during the quarter ended September 30, 2011, and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-02 could result in an increase of future debt restructurings, if any, recorded as “Troubled Debt Restructurings,” which could have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses (“ASU No. 2010-20”). ASU No. 2010-20 requires the Company to provide a greater level of disaggregated information about the credit quality of its financing receivables and its allowance for credit losses. This ASU also requires the Company to disclose additional information related to credit quality indicators, past due information, information related to loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring and significant purchases and sales of financing receivables disaggregated by portfolio segment. ASU No. 2010-20 was initially effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-01, Receivables (Topic 310): Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20 (“ASU No. 2011-01”). ASU No. 2011-01 announced that it was deferring the effective date of new disclosure requirements for troubled debt restructurings prescribed by ASU No. 2010-20 to the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011. The Company adopted ASU No. 2010-20 during the quarter ended September 30, 2011, in conjunction with the effective date of ASU No. 2011-02. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-20 requires additional disclosures, but does not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. | COLLATERAL TRANSFER AND SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT RELATED TO THE GKK MEZZANINE LOAN |
Background
On August 22, 2008, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, acquired a senior mezzanine loan with a face amount of $500.0 million for $496.0 million plus closing costs (the “GKK Mezzanine Loan”). The GKK Mezzanine Loan was used to finance a portion of Gramercy’s acquisition of American Financial Realty Trust (“AFR”) and its real estate portfolio that closed on April 1, 2008. Also in connection with its acquisition of AFR, Gramercy, through wholly owned subsidiaries, secured senior mortgage financing (the “Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan”) and junior mezzanine financing (the “Junior Mezzanine Loan”) from Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company (“Goldman”), Citicorp North America, Inc. (“Citi”) and SL Green Realty Corp. Commencing on March 11, 2011, the Company, through indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a series of extension agreements to extend the maturity date of the GKK Mezzanine Loan to May 6, 2011. The extension agreements related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan also extended the maturity dates of the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan and the Junior Mezzanine Loan to May 6, 2011. On May 6, 2011, the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan, the GKK Mezzanine Loan and the Junior Mezzanine Loan (collectively, the “GKK Loans”) matured and all amounts outstanding under these loans became due and payable by the wholly owned subsidiaries of Gramercy that were the borrowers under the respective loan agreements (collectively, the “GKK Borrower”). As such, as of May 6, 2011, the GKK Loans were in default.
On September 1, 2011, the Company, through KBS, entered into (a) the Settlement Agreement with, among other parties, GKK Stars, and (b) an Acknowledgment and Consent Agreement with, among other parties, Goldman and Citi, to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS in satisfaction of certain debt obligations owed to KBS by the GKK Borrower. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, on September 1, 2011, KBS indirectly took title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, took a leasehold interest in, 317 of the GKK Properties and will take title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, will take a leasehold interest in, an additional 498 of the GKK Properties no later than December 15, 2011. The transfers of the Equity Interests in the owners of, or in the holders of leasehold interests in, the GKK Properties are referred to herein as the “Transfers.”
Repurchase Agreements
The GKK Mezzanine Loan is security for two repurchase agreements held by the Company: one with Goldman and one with Citigroup Financial Products Inc. (“Citigroup” and, together with Goldman, the “GKK Lenders”). On April 28, 2011, the Company’s subsidiaries that are the borrowers under the repurchase agreements (individually and collectively, “KBS GKK”) and the GKK Lenders amended and restated the repurchase agreements, which agreements were further amended on May 10, 2011 and on September 1, 2011 (the “Amended Repurchase Agreements”). The purposes of the Amended Repurchase Agreements were, among others, to (i) extend the maturity dates of the existing repurchase agreements between KBS GKK, and Goldman and Citigroup, respectively, dated August 22, 2008, as amended, (ii) provide for additional security for the GKK Lenders under the Amended Repurchase Agreements, and (iii) set certain conditions that, on the date met (the “Conversion Date”), would automatically convert the Amended Repurchase Agreements into a mezzanine loan.
The Amended Repurchase Agreements will terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) April 28, 2013, (ii) the Conversion Date, (iii) the full payment of all obligations under the Amended Repurchase Agreements, or (iv) upon an event causing the Amended Repurchase Agreements to otherwise terminate.
As part of the closing of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, the Company paid $120 million in the aggregate to the GKK Lenders, of which approximately $115 million was used for the reduction of the principal balance under the Amended Repurchase Agreements (the “Principal Payment”), with the remaining $5 million used for accrued interest, and costs and expenses incurred by the GKK Lenders in connection with the closing of the Amended Repurchase Agreements. On May 10, 2011, the GKK Lenders advanced an additional $34.4 million under the Amended Repurchase Agreements to fund the Company’s acquisition, through KBS GKK, of a subordinated portion of the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan (the “GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan”). Additionally, in connection with the acquisition of the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan, on May 10, 2011, the GKK Lenders advanced an additional $8.5 million under the Amended Repurchase Agreements to fund the Company’s acquisition, through KBS GKK, of a subordinated portion of the Junior Mezzanine Loan (the “GKK Junior Mezzanine Tranche”).

As of September 30, 2011, the Amended Repurchase Agreements had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $180.7 million. The Amended Repurchase Agreements are secured by participation interests in the GKK Mezzanine Loan, the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan, the GKK Junior Mezzanine Tranche and the Equity Interests.
The Amended Repurchase Agreements bear interest at an annual rate of 350 basis points over one-month LIBOR. In addition to monthly interest payments under the terms of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, the Company, through KBS GKK, was and is required to make certain mandatory payments to the GKK Lenders as follows:
| |
(i) | on October 15, 2011, the Company made an amortization payment of $35 million; |
| |
(ii) | every three months from October 15, 2011 through April 2013, amortization payments of approximately $24.3 million, which payments may be decreased by KBS GKK making any prepayments of principal, including any mandatory or voluntary prepayments of principal; |
| |
(iii) | on October 15, 2011, the Company made payments relating to the acquisition of the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan and the GKK Junior Mezzanine Tranche in the amount of $1.6 million, and the Company must make payments in the amount of $1.1 million every three months thereafter through April 2013; |
| |
(iv) | all proceeds received by KBS GKK related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan; and |
| |
(v) | 75% to 100% of excess cash flows or net cash proceeds from: (a) the foreclosure or sale of the GKK Properties; (b) the sale of certain real estate-related debt investments owned by the Company; (c) the sale of substantially all other properties owned by the Company, in excess of $75 million in the aggregate in any calendar year; and (d) certain indebtedness incurred or equity issued (excluding proceeds from the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan), by the Company. |
KBS GKK may voluntarily prepay amounts outstanding under the Amended Repurchase Agreements without prepayment penalties.
In the event of: (i) a default under the Amended Repurchase Agreements; or (ii) bankruptcy or an act of insolvency with respect to the borrowers under the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan, the GKK Borrower or the borrowers under the Junior Mezzanine Loan, provided that such borrowers are then affiliates of the Company, the GKK Lenders shall have all voting and consent rights with respect to the GKK Mezzanine Loan.
The Amended Repurchase Agreements require KBS GKK and its subsidiaries, and the Company and certain of its subsidiaries that indirectly own most of the Company’s assets (collectively, the “Guarantors”), to meet certain financial and other covenants, which include, among other covenants, the requirements (i) for the Guarantors to maintain minimum liquidity of $9.0 million for the four month period beginning in May 2011, and $19.0 million thereafter and (ii) for KBS GKK to use its best efforts to comply with certain foreclosure procedures in connection with the exercise of remedies under the GKK Mezzanine Loan. The Guarantors have guaranteed, and other subsidiaries of the Company as may be added in the future will guarantee, all amounts owed by KBS GKK to the GKK Lenders under the Amended Repurchase Agreements. The Company also agreed that, unless permitted by or pursuant to the terms of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, during the term of the Amended Repurchase Agreements it would not create or incur additional liens or indebtedness on its assets, make additional investments, or make certain dispositions except pursuant to the mandatory payment provisions discussed above. During the term of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, the Company also agreed (i) except for distributions to stockholders necessary to maintain the Company’s REIT status, to limit distributions to stockholders to an amount not to exceed $6.0 million per month, excluding any distributions to stockholders reinvested in the Company pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan (currently, distributions are less than $5.0 million per month, excluding distributions reinvested pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan), and (ii) to continue to limit redemptions under the share redemption program to those redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined in the share redemption program).

In connection with its execution of the Settlement Agreement (discussed below), KBS GKK agreed that a default by KBS on any of the five loans specified in the Amended Repurchase Agreements (a “Mortgage Default”), including the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan, may, in certain circumstances, constitute a default under the Amended Repurchase Agreements. Under certain conditions, a Mortgage Default would not trigger a default under the Amended Repurchase Agreements if KBS were to transfer the Equity Interests in the owner of the property subject to the Mortgage Default to the GKK Lenders.
Settlement Agreement
On the Effective Date, the Company, through KBS, entered into (a) the Settlement Agreement with, among other parties, GKK Stars, to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS in satisfaction of certain debt obligations owed by the GKK Borrower to KBS, and (b) an Acknowledgment and Consent Agreement with, among other parties, Goldman and Citi.
Under the Settlement Agreement, GKK Stars agreed to cause the Transfers to KBS of the Equity Interests in the indirect owners of, or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, the holders of a leasehold interest in, the GKK Properties, with Transfers to commence on the Effective Date. The Settlement Agreement contemplates the transfer of Equity Interests in entities that own or hold leasehold interests in approximately 815 GKK Properties, including approximately 524 bank branch properties and approximately 291 office buildings, operations centers and other properties, as well as a 99% interest in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture. The Company’s calculated fair values of the underlying GKK Properties and related current assets and liabilities is approximately $1.9 billion and supports the approximately $1.9 billion total of the combined outstanding mortgage loan balance encumbering the GKK Properties (including the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan) plus the Company’s carrying value of the GKK Mezzanine Loan and GKK Junior Mezzanine Tranche prior to the Company’s entry into the Settlement Agreement. As a result, no gain or loss was recorded upon the signing of the Settlement Agreement and the consolidation of the underlying GKK Properties and related assets and liabilities. The fair value of the individual GKK Properties was determined using either a direct capitalization approach (generally for stabilized properties with long-term leases) or a discounted cash flow analysis. The GKK Properties that are or will be wholly owned by indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company have a total of approximately 20.7 million rentable square feet and are located in 36 different states.
Below is a summary of the GKK Properties:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Property Type | | Number of Properties | | Number of States (1) | | Rentable Square Feet | | Average Remaining Lease Term in Years | | Occupancy |
Branch properties | | 524 | | 28 | | 3,397,659 |

| | 9.2 | | 84 | % |
_____________________(1) The GKK Properties are located in 36 different states throughout the United States.
On the Effective Date, KBS received Equity Interests in the holders of an interest in 317 of the GKK Properties. Following the Effective Date, KBS will have the right to receive the remaining Equity Interests at the times and in the order of its choosing, pursuant to terms contained in the Settlement Agreement relating to specific Mortgage Pools (defined below). However, if all remaining Equity Interests have not been transferred to KBS by December 15, 2011, it must accept the transfer of all of the Equity Interests in AFR, resulting in the Transfer of the Equity Interests in the owners of any and all of the 498 GKK Properties not yet transferred as well as the interest in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture. With respect to the Transfers, the GKK Borrower has agreed to cooperate with KBS and not to interfere with certain actions taken or to be taken by KBS to effect such Transfers including, among others, KBS’s negotiations with the third-party lenders of the Mortgage Pools to obtain any consents necessary to effectuate the Transfers and the assumption of the Mortgage Pools. As KBS receives each Transfer, the outstanding indebtedness under the GKK Mezzanine Loan will be reduced by agreed upon amounts. The Equity Interests transferred to KBS immediately become additional security for the Amended Repurchase Agreements.

Because the Settlement Agreement provides that KBS must accept the Transfer of all of the remaining Equity Interests that have not been transferred as of December 15, 2011, with the only requirement being the passage of time, and because for accounting purposes (although not for legal purposes), the Company is deemed to control the decisions that affect the economic outcome of all of the Equity Interests and all of the GKK Properties as of the Effective Date, the Company has consolidated in its financial statements as of the Effective Date all assets and liabilities assumed or to be assumed by the Company in connection with the Transfers of the Equity Interests and the GKK Properties to be wholly owned, owned through the Citizens Bank Joint Venture, or held through leasehold interests, including the related assumption of the Mortgage Pools and other liabilities related to the GKK Properties to be transferred. Additionally, the outstanding indebtedness under the GKK Mezzanine Loan has been eliminated in consolidation in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
As of the Effective Date, GKK Stars had agreed to provide: standard asset management services relating to the GKK Properties transferred or to be transferred pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (the “Services”) through December 31, 2013, which Services may be terminated by either GKK Stars or KBS at any time on 90 days prior written notice, subject to certain additional termination rights and restrictions; and to provide the Company with financial information for the GKK Properties for fiscal year 2011. As compensation for the Services, KBS agreed to pay to GKK Stars: (i) an annual fee of $10 million (prorated for incomplete years) plus all property-related expenses incurred by GKK Stars, (ii) subject to certain terms and conditions in the Settlement Agreement, participation interests in the amounts by which the net sales proceeds from the sale of the GKK Properties plus the remaining net value of KBS’ remaining assets exceed certain threshold amounts, and (iii) subject to certain conditions in the Settlement Agreement, a minimum of $3.5 million. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a contingent liability of $12.0 million based on the expected consideration to be paid as a result of GKK Stars’ participation interests. GKK Stars and KBS have agreed to negotiate a separate management services agreement to further outline the terms and conditions under which GKK Stars or one of its affiliates would continue to provide the Services for KBS. The terms of such an agreement have not yet been finalized; however, and there can be no assurance that GKK Stars or one of its affiliates and KBS will ever consummate such an agreement. In the event KBS and GKK Stars or one of its affiliates are unable to consummate such an agreement by March 31, 2012, the terms for the provision of the Services under the Settlement Agreement shall automatically terminate on June 30, 2012, though, in certain circumstances, GKK Stars will retain its right to the participation interests and minimum threshold described above.
Prior to the Transfers, the GKK Borrower agreed to refrain from entering into certain agreements relating to the Gramercy real estate portfolio, incurring debt except as permitted in the loan agreement relating to the GKK Mezzanine Loan, making certain transfers of the GKK Properties and making certain distributions. So long as KBS is still obligated under certain Mortgage Pools, the Guarantor and the indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company created to receive the Equity Interests may not incur debt for borrowed money in excess of $180 million (which may be increased to $200 million under certain circumstances), other than mortgage financing secured by, among other things, interests in real property, and other than the GKK Mezzanine Loan.
The Company allocated the fair value of the GKK Properties to tangible assets received and identifiable intangibles assumed as follows (in thousands):

The Company preliminarily allocated the tangible assets, identifiable intangibles and assumed liabilities (consisting of above- and below-market leases and tenant origination and absorption costs) related to the GKK Properties based on preliminary estimates of fair value. The Company estimated the fair value of real estate using either a direct capitalization approach (generally for stabilized properties with long-term leases) or a discounted cash flow analysis. The Company estimated the fair value of notes payable using a discounted cash flow analysis based on estimates of current market interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics. The Company has not yet obtained all the information necessary to finalize its estimates to complete the purchase price allocations in accordance with ASC No. 805, “Business Combinations.” The purchase price allocations will be finalized once the information identified has been received, which should not be longer than one year from the Effective Date. The Company recorded the Transfers as a business combination and expensed $10.9 million of costs related to the Transfers, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recognized $26.3 million of total revenues and $4.9 million of operating income from the GKK Properties.
With the exception of 52 unencumbered properties, including 38 properties in which the Company has received or will receive leasehold interests, and properties that would be held through the Citizens Bank Joint Venture, the GKK Properties subject to the Transfers are divided into 25 separate property pools with each property pool being encumbered by a mortgage loan in favor of a third-party lender (collectively, the “Mortgage Pools and individually, a “Mortgage Pool”), except for the $34.3 million GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan that the Company owns. As of September 30, 2011, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Pools was $1.5 billion, including the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan, which had a balance of $34.3 million. As of September 30, 2011, the Mortgage Pools had a total of $1.0 billion of fixed rate notes payable with a weighted-average annual effective interest rate of 5.8% and a total of $0.5 billion of variable rate notes payable with a weighted-average annual effective interest rate of 3.0%.

(1) As of September 30, 2011, $80.5 million of the Bank of America - BBD1 debt and $3.9 million related to two other mortgage debts had been defeased by $93.3 million of pledged treasury securities, net of discounts and premiums, that will be transferred to the Company pursuant to the Settlement Agreement.
(2) As of September 30, 2011, the Company was in the process of negotiating with the lenders for their consent to the Company’s assumption of these loans. In order to obtain their consent, some of the contractual terms of the loans may be modified. The Company anticipates the assumptions of these loans to occur by December 15, 2011 and if the Company is unable to reach an agreement, the lenders under these mortgage loans could pursue the remedies specified in the loan documents in relation to the underlying GKK Properties, which could result in the Company losing part or all of these GKK Properties.
(3) Prior to the Effective Date, the Company purchased the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan, which is a $34.3 million subordinated interest in the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan. The principal balance of the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan as of September 30, 2011 excludes the $34.3 million GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan, as such amount was eliminated in conjunction with the assets and liabilities consolidated in the Transfers.
(4) On September 1, 2011, in connection with the Transfers, the Company assumed these mortgage loans and received Equity Interests in the properties securing the loans.
(5) Includes 13 separate fixed-rate mortgage loans, each of which has an outstanding principal balance of $26.5 million or less. These mortgage loans have maturity dates between October 1, 2012 and August 11, 2030 and the weighted-average remaining term of these loans is approximately 6.9 years. As of September 30, 2011, the weighted-average interest rate of these loans was 6.6%. Three of the 13 mortgage loans were assumed on the Effective Date. The Company is in the process of negotiating with the lenders for their consent to the Company’s assumption of the other ten loans.

Operating Leases
The Company’s real estate assets are leased to tenants under operating leases for which the terms and expirations vary. Excluding the GKK Properties, the leases have remaining terms of up to 11.2 years with a weighted-average remaining term of 3.8 years. Leases related to the GKK Properties have remaining terms of up to 19.4 years with a weighted-average remaining term of 9.2 years. The leases may have provisions to extend the lease agreements, options for early termination after paying a specified penalty, rights of first refusal to purchase the property at competitive market rates, and other terms and conditions as negotiated. Additionally, the Company has assumed or will assume several leases related to the GKK Properties which contain shedding right provisions. As of September 30, 2011, these shedding rights totaled approximately 1.1 million square feet and can be exercised at various dates during 2012-2017. The Company retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to tenants. Generally, upon the execution of a lease, the Company requires security deposits from tenants in the form of a cash deposit and/or a letter of credit. Amounts required as security deposits vary depending upon the terms of the respective leases and the creditworthiness of the tenant, but generally are not significant amounts. Therefore, exposure to credit risk exists to the extent that a receivable from a tenant exceeds the amount of its security deposit. Security deposits received in cash related to tenant leases are included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and totaled $4.9 million and $3.1 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

These excess amounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were net of $0.5 million and $0.4 million of lease incentive amortization, respectively. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the cumulative deferred rent balance was $28.4 million and $22.5 million, respectively, and is included in rents and other receivables on the accompanying balance sheets. The cumulative deferred rent balance included $6.3 million and $5.4 million of unamortized lease incentives as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

(1) Annualized base rent represents annualized contractual base rental income as of September 30, 2011.
The increase in the finance and insurance industry concentration from the prior period is due to the concentration in the GKK Properties. No other tenant industries accounted for more than 10% of annualized base rent. The Company currently has approximately 900 tenants over a diverse range of industries and geographical regions. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had a bad debt reserve of $4.8 million, which represents approximately 1% of annualized base rent. The Company’s bad debt reserve included $3.5 million related to the GKK Properties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded bad debt expense related to its tenant receivables of $1.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively.
As of September 30, 2011, the Company had a concentration of credit risk related to leases with the following tenant that represented more than 10% of the Company’s annualized base rent:

Bank of America Corporation is the guarantor of various leases that its subsidiary, Bank of America, N.A., has or will have with the Company due to the pending Transfers of the GKK Properties. The Company is to assume the majority of these leases in connection with the Settlement Agreement.

Impairment of Real Estate
Due to changes in cash flow estimates, the Company has recognized non-cash impairment charges to write-down the carrying value of certain of its real estate investments to their estimated fair values. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $12.4 million with respect to three of its real estate properties held for investment. See Note 8, “Real Estate Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations” for information regarding impairments of assets related to real estate held for sale.
Also, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $123.5 million with respect to 17 properties within the National Industrial Portfolio (defined in Note 14, “Consolidated Joint Venture and Noncontrolling Interest”) to reduce the carrying value of these properties to their estimated fair values. The requirement for an impairment charge resulted from a change in the estimated holding period of this investment and a change in the estimated cash flows during the holding period. Due to a decline in the operating performance of the portfolio resulting from increased vacancies, lower rental rates and tenant bankruptcies, in addition to declines in market value across all real estate types in the period following the Company’s initial investment in the National Industrial Portfolio, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to refinance or extend the mortgage and mezzanine loans secured by the National Industrial Portfolio upon their fully‑extended maturities in August 2012. As a result, the Company may be forced to relinquish the assets to the lenders at some point prior to or concurrent with the final maturities in August 2012. In the event the Company relinquishes the assets to the lenders, it would record a gain on extinguishment of the debt equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the debt at that time (currently $443.6 million, which includes amounts for noncontrolling interest of $88.7 million) and the carrying value of the collateral at that time (currently $318.7 million, which includes amounts for noncontrolling interest of $63.7 million). During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recognized $29.3 million of total revenues from the National Industrial Portfolio. During the same period, cash flows from operations from the National Industrial Portfolio were $6.7 million and cash used in investing activities was $4.0 million.

The Company generally recognizes income on impaired loans on either a cash basis, where interest income is only recorded when received in cash, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts are applied against the carrying value of the loan. The Company will resume the accrual of interest if it determines the collection of interest according to the contractual terms of the loan is probable. The Company considers the collectibility of the loan’s principal balance in determining whether to recognize income on impaired loans on a cash basis or a cost-recovery basis. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recognized $0.7 million of interest income related to two impaired loans with asset-specific reserves. Additionally, as of September 30, 2011, the Company had interest income receivable of $0.9 million related to two of the impaired loans with asset-specific reserves, of which $0.8 million was reserved for.
Recent Transactions
Artisan Multifamily Portfolio Mezzanine Loan
On December 11, 2007, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, made an investment in a mezzanine loan to fund the acquisition of two garden-style multifamily apartment complexes in Las Vegas, Nevada (the “Artisan Multifamily Portfolio Mezzanine Loan”). As of December 31, 2010, the outstanding principal balance on the loan was $20.0 million and the carrying value of the loan was $18.4 million before asset-specific impairments recorded as of December 31, 2010 that reduced its carrying value to $0. The Company wrote-off its investment in the Artisan Multifamily Portfolio Mezzanine Loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
11 South LaSalle Loan Origination
On August 8, 2007, the Company, through an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, originated a senior mortgage loan of up to $43.3 million on 11 South LaSalle (the “11 South LaSalle Loan Origination”), a 35-story office building containing 329,271 square feet located in Chicago, Illinois. As of September 30, 2011, the outstanding principal balance and book value before asset-specific impairments of the loan was $38.8 million. On August 2, 2011, the Company entered into a discounted pay-off agreement with the borrower under the 11 South LaSalle Loan Origination to release the borrower from all outstanding debt and liabilities, including the outstanding principal balance and any unpaid interest under the loan, at a discounted amount between $32.0 million and $32.5 million. In connection with the discounted pay-off agreement, the borrower is required to make an initial payment of $20.0 million (the “Initial Payment”) by November 30, 2011. Additionally, the remaining payment of $12.5 million is due and payable by the end of the ninth month following the Initial Payment, which amount decreases incrementally to $12.0 million if paid within one month following the Initial Payment. As a result, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded a loan loss reserve of $6.8 million to reduce the Company’s net investment to $32.0 million and wrote-off $0.8 million of accrued interest receivable.
2600 Michelson Mezzanine Loan
On June 2, 2008, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, purchased at a discount a $15.0 million mezzanine loan (the “2600 Michelson Mezzanine Loan”) secured by, among other things, a pledge by the mezzanine borrower of all of its right, title and interest in the entity that holds title to a 16-story office building with a five-level parking structure located at 2600 Michelson Avenue in Irvine, California. As of December 31, 2010, the outstanding principal balance on the loan was $15.0 million and the carrying value of the loan was $8.9 million before asset-specific impairments recorded as of December 31, 2010 that reduced its carrying value to $0. On May 26, 2011, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement with a third party to sell the 2600 Michelson Mezzanine Loan at a discount. On June 30, 2011, the Company received $52,000 upon the sale of the loan and wrote-off its investment in the 2600 Michelson Mezzanine Loan.

Park Central Mezzanine Loan
On March 23, 2007, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, purchased a $15.0 million interest in a $58.0 million mezzanine loan (the “Park Central Mezzanine Loan”) secured by, among other things, a pledge by the borrower under the Park Central Mezzanine Loan of its interests in the limited liability company that holds title to the Park Central Hotel, a 934-room, four-star, full-service hotel located in Midtown Manhattan in New York City, New York. As of September 30, 2011, the outstanding principal balance under the Park Central Mezzanine Loan was $15.0 million. The property has been put under contract to sell at a price that does not support the Company’s mezzanine loan position and the Company has determined that it will not recover all amounts due under the loan. On August 30, 2011, the Company entered into a discounted payoff agreement with the borrower under the Park Central Mezzanine Loan to release the borrower from all outstanding debt and liabilities, including the outstanding principal balance and any unpaid interest under the loan, at a discounted amount of $7.3 million. In addition, as part of the discounted payoff agreement, the maturity date of the Park Central Mezzanine Loan has been extended from November 9, 2011 to December 31, 2011. As a result, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded an asset-specific impairment of $7.7 million to reduce the carrying value of the Park Central Mezzanine Loan to $7.3 million.
Settlement Agreement
On September 1, 2011, the Company entered into the Settlement Agreement with, among other parties, GKK Stars to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS in satisfaction of certain debt obligations owed by the GKK Borrower to KBS. As the assets and liabilities securing the loans have been consolidated in the Company’s financial statements as of September 30, 2011, the book values of the GKK Mezzanine Loan, the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan and the GKK Junior Mezzanine Tranche have been reduced to $0. See Note 3, “Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan.”
Reserve for Loan Losses

|
As of September 30, 2011, the total reserve for loan losses consisted of $66.9 million of asset-specific reserves on impaired real estate loans receivable with an amortized cost basis of $108.8 million. As of September 30, 2011, real estate loans receivable with an amortized cost basis of $65.0 million were on nonaccrual status. Also as of September 30, 2011, four of the eight borrowers under the real estate loans receivable were delinquent. The asset-specific reserves relate to the following impaired loans: the Sandmar Mezzanine Loan, the subordinated debt investment in Petra Fund REIT Corp, the 11 South LaSalle Loan Origination and the Park Central Mezzanine Loan. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company’s investments in the GKK Loans were deemed to be impaired as the loans matured on May 6, 2011 without repayment from the borrower. However, the Company determined that the GKK Loans were fully secured by the collateral and no impairment charge was recorded. See Note 3, “Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan.”

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the provision for loan losses was comprised of an increase of $14.3 million to the asset-specific loan loss reserves, offset by a decrease of $18.1 million of loan loss reserves calculated on a portfolio-basis. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company also recovered $0.1 million of reserves for loan losses related to the foreclosure of the 200 Professional Drive Loan Origination. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the change in loan loss reserves was comprised of an increase of $9.6 million to the asset-specific loan loss reserves, offset by a reduction of $5.9 million calculated on a portfolio-basis. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company also charged‑off $18.5 million of reserves for loan losses related to the Tribeca Loans (See Note 9, “Foreclosed Real Estate Held for Sale”) in conjunction with the Company’s foreclosure on the collateral securing the loans. As of September 30, 2011, the Company did not record a portfolio-based loan loss reserve.
At September 30, 2011, the Company held two investments in real estate securities classified as available-for-sale: commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) that accrued interest at a coupon rate of one-month LIBOR plus 2.30% with a contractual maturity of November 2011 and an original purchase price of $17.7 million (“Floating Rate CMBS”) and securities backed by CMBS that accrue interest at a coupon rate of 4.5% with a contractual maturity of December 2017 and an original purchase price of $44.2 million (“Fixed Rate Securities”). The Company’s investments in real estate securities are held at fair value and reviewed for impairment on a quarterly basis.
As of September 30, 2011, the Company determined the fair value of the Fixed Rate Securities to be $18.7 million, resulting in unrealized gains of $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The cumulative unrealized loss of $2.6 million on the Fixed Rate Securities as of September 30, 2011 was not determined to be other-than-temporary because the Company did not experience an adverse change to its cash flow estimates for the securities and the Company believes it has the intent and ability to hold the securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery of the amortized cost basis. As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s Floating Rate CMBS had a fair value of $0. The fair value of the Floating Rate CMBS is consistent with its December 31, 2010 value, resulting in no unrealized gain or loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairments on its real estate securities. It is difficult to predict the timing or magnitude of other-than-temporary impairments and significant judgments are required in determining impairments, including, but not limited to, assumptions regarding estimated prepayments, losses and changes in interest rates. As a result, actual realized losses could materially differ from these estimates.

9. | FORECLOSED REAL ESTATE HELD FOR SALE |
On February 19, 2010, the borrowers under the Tribeca Loans defaulted and the Company foreclosed on the Tribeca Building by exercising its right to accept 100% of the ownership interest of the borrower under the Second Tribeca Mezzanine Loan. The Company acquired the remaining unsold units of the Tribeca Building and assumed the project liabilities. The Company recorded the Tribeca Building at fair value using a discounted cash flow valuation model based on net realizable value (expected sales price less estimated costs to sell the unsold units) of the real estate.
As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s investment in the Tribeca Building consisted of four condominium units, two retail spaces and parking spaces with a carrying value of $28.8 million and is presented as foreclosed real estate held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, the Company had $0.2 million of other liabilities related to the Tribeca Building outstanding at September 30, 2011.

_____________________(1) Contractual interest rate as of September 30, 2011 represents the range of interest rates in effect under these loans as of September 30, 2011. Weighted-average interest rate as of September 30, 2011 is calculated as the actual interest rate in effect as of September 30, 2011 (consisting of the contractual interest rate and the effect of contractual floor rates and interest rate caps, floors and swaps), using interest rate indices at September 30, 2011, where applicable.
(2) Weighted-average remaining term in years represents the initial maturity dates or the maturity dates as extended as of September 30, 2011; subject to certain conditions, the maturity dates of certain loans may be further extended.
(3) As of September 1, 2011, in connection with its entry into the Settlement Agreement through KBS, the Company is consolidating $1.5 billion of mortgage loans secured by the GKK Properties. Of the $1.5 billion of loans, on the Effective Date the Company assumed five of the mortgage loans in the amount of $269.2 million and received Equity Interests in the owners of the GKK Properties securing those loans. As of September 30, 2011, the Company was in the process of negotiating with the lenders of the loans not yet assumed for their consent to assume the remainder of the mortgage loans in the aggregate amount of $1.2 billion.

In the aggregate, the weighted-average interest rate of the mortgage and mezzanine loans is 125 basis points over one-month LIBOR. On August 9, 2011, the Company extended the mortgage and mezzanine loans to December 31, 2011 and the Company may, at its option, further extend the loans to August 9, 2012, subject to certain terms in the loan agreements.
(6) The contractual interest rates of these loans will vary based on one-month LIBOR plus a fixed spread. The spreads on the mortgage loans, GKK Properties mortgage loans and mezzanine loans range from 0.8% to 2.3%, 1.7% to 3.0% and 1.3% to 3.0%, respectively.

_____________________(1) Represents the maturities of all notes payable outstanding as of September 30, 2011 assuming the Company exercises all extension options available per the terms of the loan agreements. The Company can give no assurance that it will be able to satisfy the conditions to extend the terms of the loan agreements.
Debt Covenants
The Company’s notes payable typically require that specified loan-to-value and debt service coverage ratios be maintained with respect to the financed properties before the Company can exercise certain rights under the loan agreements relating to such properties. As of September 30, 2011, the Company and/or the borrowers under the loan agreements were in compliance with the covenants on all of their mortgage and mezzanine loans included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, except that, as of September 30, 2011, the borrowers under two mortgage loans that the Company will assume pursuant to the Settlement Agreement were out of debt service coverage compliance. The loans had an outstanding principal balance of $207.3 million and $13.7 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2011. Such non-compliance does not constitute an event of default under the applicable loan agreements. As a result of such non-compliance, under one of the loans, the lender has the ability to restrict distributions to the budgeted property operating expenses; under the other loan, the lender has the right to replace the management of the property. In addition, the borrower under a mortgage loan that the Company will assume pursuant to the Settlement Agreement with an outstanding principal balance of $219.5 million was not in compliance with the tangible net worth covenant under its loan agreement and such non-compliance may allow the lender to declare a default and exercise remedies against the mortgage collateral on a non-recourse basis. In conjunction with the pending loan assumptions, the Company is currently negotiating with the lenders to modify or obtain waivers of these covenants and resolve such non-compliance.

Recent Financing Transactions
Wells Bridge Loan
On April 28, 2011, the Company, through indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Wells Bridge Loan Borrower”), entered into a loan with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association for an amount of up to $50.0 million (the “Wells Bridge Loan”). Subsequent to the loan closing, the Company sold two properties securing the Wells Bridge Loan, reducing the aggregate amount available for disbursement under the loan to $13.8 million. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had no outstanding debt under the Wells Bridge Loan and $13.8 million was available for disbursement, subject to certain conditions set forth in the loan agreement. The maturity date of the Wells Bridge Loan is January 26, 2012. The Wells Bridge Loan bears interest at a floating rate of 275 basis points over one-month LIBOR. Monthly payments on the Wells Bridge Loan are interest-only, with the entire principal amount, plus any outstanding interest and fees, due at maturity, assuming no prior prepayment. Upon no less than three business days’ notice, the Wells Bridge Loan Borrower may pre-pay all or a portion of the Wells Bridge Loan, subject to prepayment fees in certain circumstances. The Wells Bridge Loan is secured by real estate owned by the Wells Bridge Loan Borrower and shall be used for, among other purposes, the amortization payments required under the Amended Repurchase Agreements. The Company has guaranteed all amounts owed by the Wells Bridge Loan Borrower to Wells under the Wells Bridge Loan. A default under the Wells Bridge Loan would constitute a default under the Amended Repurchase Agreements. A default on any indebtedness incurred, or on any guaranty (including guarantees relating to the Amended Repurchase Agreements) executed, by either the Company or KBS REIT Properties LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, would constitute a default under the Wells Bridge Loan.

Extension and Modification of the Millennium I Building Revolving Loan
On February 11, 2010, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, completed the secured financing of the Millennium I Building. The Company obtained a three-year revolving loan from an unaffiliated lender that allowed the Company to draw up to $29.5 million, subject to certain terms and restrictions, at a floating interest rate equal to 375 basis points over one-month LIBOR (the “Millennium I Building Revolving Loan”). On April 21, 2011, the Company drew the entire $29.5 million then available under the Millennium I Building Revolving Loan, which amount was used for the principal payment and fees required under the Amended Repurchase Agreements. On July 6, 2011, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a loan extension and modification agreement allowing the Company to draw up to $40.0 million under the Millennium I Building Revolving Loan, subject to certain terms and restrictions set forth in the loan agreement, with an option to increase borrowings to $95.0 million with the addition of additional real estate collateral (the “Accordion Option”). The loan matures on July 1, 2015, subject to a one-year extension option. On October 25, 2011, the Company exercised the Accordion Option by pledging the Woodfield Preserve Office Center as additional collateral and on October 31, 2011, the Company made an additional draw on the Millennium I Building Revolving Loan such that an aggregate principal amount of $85.0 million was outstanding under the loan as of that date. As of October 31, 2011, $10.0 million was available for disbursement under the Millennium I Building Revolving Loan. The interest rate on the Millennium I Building Revolving Loan decreased from 225 basis points over one-month LIBOR to 210 basis points over one-month LIBOR upon the execution of the Accordion Option.
Extension and Modification of the Small Portfolio Mortgage Loan Facility
On February 5, 2009, certain of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Small Portfolio Mortgage Loan Borrowers”) entered into a three-year mortgage loan agreement with an unaffiliated lender related to the following properties that secure the loan: North Creek Parkway Center, City Gate Plaza, the University Park Buildings and Meridian Tower. The principal amount of the facility is $54.0 million (the “Small Portfolio Mortgage Loan Facility”). At closing, $45.7 million was disbursed to the Company and up to $8.3 million was available for a one-time future disbursement, subject to certain conditions set forth in the loan agreement. On April 21, 2011, the Company drew the remaining $8.3 million available under the Small Portfolio Mortgage Loan Facility, which amount was used to pay the principal and fees required under the Amended Repurchase Agreements. On July 6, 2011, the Small Portfolio Mortgage Loan Borrower entered into a loan extension and modification agreement to increase the amount available under the credit facility to $60.0 million. The Small Portfolio Mortgage Loan Facility, as amended, bears interest at a floating rate equal to 210 basis points over one-month LIBOR. The Small Portfolio Mortgage Loan Facility, as amended, matures on July 1, 2015, subject to a one-year extension option.
Extension and Modification of the Woodfield Preserve Office Center and South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loans
On May 1, 2011, the Company, through indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a loan extension and modification agreement to extend the maturity date of a $106.5 million mortgage loan secured by the Woodfield Preserve Office Center and South Towne Corporate Center I and II to October 31, 2011. In connection with the extension, the Company paid $0.5 million of extension fees and waived the right to draw an additional $4.0 million previously available for future funding under the terms of the original loan agreement. During the extension period, interest was calculated at a fixed rate of 5.30% per annum. Monthly payments were interest-only, with the entire principal amount, plus any outstanding interest and fees, due at maturity, assuming no prior payments. On October 31, 2011, the Company paid off the entire principal balance outstanding and accrued interest in the amount of $103.0 million.
National Industrial Portfolio Mortgage and Mezzanine Loans
On August 9, 2011, the Company, through the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture, amended the National Industrial Portfolio mortgage and mezzanine loans. The amendment extended the maturity date of the loans to December 31, 2011 and the Company may, at its option, further extend the loans to August 9, 2012, subject to certain terms in the loan agreements. Additionally, the amendment states that the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture may not make any distributions to the Company unless such distributions are used to pay amounts owed to the lenders under the loans.

11. | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS |
The Company enters into derivative instruments for risk management purposes to hedge its exposure to cash flow variability caused by changing interest rates on its variable rate real estate loans receivable and notes payable. The primary goal of the Company’s risk management practices related to interest rate risk is to prevent changes in interest rates from adversely impacting the Company’s ability to achieve its investment return objectives. When the Company purchases or originates a variable rate debt instrument for investment, or obtains variable rate financing, it considers several factors in determining whether or not to use a derivative instrument to hedge the related interest rate risk. These factors include the Company’s return objectives, the expected life of the investment, the expected life of the financing instrument, interest rates, costs to purchase hedging instruments, the terms of the debt investment, the terms of the financing instrument, the overall interest rate risk exposure of the Company, and other factors.
The Company enters into interest rate caps to mitigate its exposure to rising interest rates on its variable rate notes payable. The Company also enters into interest rate floors to mitigate its exposure to decreasing interest rates on its variable rate loans receivable. The values of interest rate caps and floors are primarily impacted by interest rates, market expectations about interest rates, and the remaining life of the instrument. In general, increases in interest rates, or anticipated increases in interest rates, will increase the value of interest rate caps; conversely, decreases in interest rates, or anticipated decreases in interest rates, will generally increase the value of interest rate floors. As the remaining life of an interest rate cap or floor decreases, the value of the instrument will generally decrease towards zero.
The Company enters into interest rate swaps as a fixed rate payer to mitigate its exposure to rising interest rates on its variable rate notes payable. The value of interest rate swaps is primarily impacted by interest rates, market expectations about interest rates, and the remaining life of the instrument. In general, increases in interest rates, or anticipated increases in interest rates, will increase the value of the fixed rate payer position and decrease the value of the variable rate payer position. As the remaining life of the interest rate swap decreases, the value of both positions will generally move towards zero. All of the Company’s interest rate swaps and caps are designated as cash flow hedges.
The following table summarizes the notional and fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The notional value is an indication of the extent of the Company’s involvement in each instrument at that time, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks (dollars in thousands):

Asset derivatives are recorded as deferred financing costs, prepaid expenses and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, and liability derivatives are recorded as other liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The change in fair value of the effective portion of a derivative instrument that is designated as a cash flow hedge is recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying consolidated statements of equity. The Company recorded unrealized gains of $3.3 million and $0.1 million on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Amounts in other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified into earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged cash flow. As a result of utilizing derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges to hedge variable rate notes payable and repurchase agreements, the Company recognized an additional $3.5 million and $4.5 million of interest expense related to the effective portion of cash flow hedges during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The ineffective portion, reported as a component of interest expense, did not have a material impact on earnings and the Company does not anticipate that it will have a material impact in the future. During the next twelve months, the Company expects to recognize additional interest expense related to derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges. The present value of this additional interest expense totals $1.8 million as of September 30, 2011 and is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

12. | FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES |
The fair value for certain financial instruments is derived using a combination of market quotes, pricing models and valuation techniques that involve significant management judgment. The price transparency of financial instruments is a key determinant of the degree of judgment involved in determining the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. Financial instruments for which actively quoted prices or pricing parameters are available and for which markets contain orderly transactions will generally have a higher degree of price transparency than financial instruments for which markets are inactive or consist of non-orderly trades. The Company evaluates several factors when determining if a market is inactive or when market transactions are not orderly. The following is a summary of the methods and assumptions used by management in estimating the fair value of each class of assets and liabilities for which it is practicable to estimate the fair value:
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, rent and other receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities: These balances reasonably approximate their fair values due to the short maturities of these items.
Pledged government securities: In connection with the Settlement Agreement, the Company will receive a portfolio of treasury securities that is pledged to provide a portion of the principal and interest payments for mortgage debt collateralized by certain GKK Properties. These securities are classified as held to maturity and are presented on an amortized cost basis and not at fair value. The fair values were based upon valuations obtained from dealers of those securities.
Real estate loans receivable: These instruments are presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at their amortized cost net of recorded loan loss reserves and not at fair value. The fair values of real estate loans receivable were estimated using an internal valuation model that considered the expected cash flows for the loans, underlying collateral values (for collateral-dependent loans) and estimated yield requirements of institutional investors for loans with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value, type of collateral and other credit enhancements.
Investment in unconsolidated joint ventures: These investments are presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at acquisition-date or transfer-date fair values and not at current fair values. The fair values of the investments in the unconsolidated joint ventures were estimated using an internal valuation model that considered the Company’s expected cash flows from the joint ventures and estimated yield requirements of institutional investors for equity investments in real estate joint ventures with similar characteristics, including the capitalization of the joint ventures, the operating performance of the joint ventures’ real estate and the liquidation priority of the Company’s investments.

Real estate securities: These investments are classified as available-for-sale and are presented at fair value. As of September 30, 2011, the Company based its fair value measurements for the Fixed Rate Securities on quotes provided by the dealer of these securities. Since the market for these securities was determined to be inactive, the Company deemed the use of the dealer quotes as its point estimate of fair value to be appropriate by establishing a range of estimated fair values using various internal valuation techniques and concluding that the dealer quotes were within a reasonable range of fair values. The dealer utilizes a proprietary valuation model that contains unobservable inputs. The Company based its fair value measurements of the Floating Rate CMBS on an internal valuation model that considered expected cash flows from the underlying loans and yields required by market participants. As such, the Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs.
Derivative instruments: These instruments are presented at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The valuation of these instruments is determined by a third-party expert using a proprietary model that utilizes observable inputs. As such, the Company classifies these inputs as Level 2 inputs. The proprietary model uses the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and volatility. The fair values of interest rate swaps, caps and floors are estimated using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash payments (receipts). The variable cash payments (receipts) are based on an expectation of interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit enhancements to the contracts, are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk. The fair value of interest rate caps (floors) are determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash payments (receipts) which would occur if variable interest rates rise above (below) the strike rate of the caps (floors). The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected payments (receipts) on the cap (floor) are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate curves and volatilities.
Notes payable and repurchase agreements: The fair value of the Company’s notes payable and repurchase agreements is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s estimates of current market interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value ratio, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach.
The following are the face values, carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, which carrying amounts do not approximate the fair values:

When the Company has a collateral-dependent loan that is identified as being impaired, it is evaluated for impairment by comparing the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the carrying value of the loan. Due to the nature of the properties collateralizing the Company’s impaired collateral-dependent loans, the Company estimated the fair value of the collateral by using an internally developed valuation model that utilizes the income approach to valuing real estate. This approach requires the Company to make significant judgments with respect to capitalization rates, market rental rates, occupancy rates, and operating expenses that are considered Level 3 inputs.
When the Company has a loan that is identified as being impaired in connection with a troubled debt restructuring resulting from a concession granted by the Company to the borrower through a modification of the loan terms, the loan is evaluated for impairment by comparing the carrying value of the loan to the present value of the modified cash flow stream discounted at the rate used to recognize interest income. This rate may not be indicative of a market rate and, therefore, the resulting present value may not be considered to be a fair value. Thus, such financial assets involved in a troubled debt restructuring are not considered to be carried at fair value.
The Company estimated the fair value of impaired real estate by using a 10-year discounted cash flow analysis. The cash flow analysis utilized internally prepared cash flow estimates, terminal capitalization rates within historical average ranges and discount rates that fall within ranges the Company believes are used by market participants. The capitalization rate ranges and discount rate ranges were obtained from third-party service providers and the capitalization rate ranges were gathered for specific metro areas and applied on a property-by-property basis. The Company estimated the fair value of impaired real estate held for sale based on its estimated fair value less costs to sell.

13. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
The Company has entered into an Advisory Agreement with the Advisor that is in effect through November 8, 2012 and a Dealer Manager Agreement with the Dealer Manager. These agreements entitle the Advisor and/or the Dealer Manager to specified fees upon the provision of certain services with regard to the Offering, the investment of funds in real estate and real estate-related investments, the management of those investments and the disposition of those investments, among other services, as well as reimbursement of organization and offering costs incurred by the Advisor, the Dealer Manager, and their affiliates on behalf of the Company and certain costs incurred by the Advisor in providing services to the Company. The Advisor and Dealer Manager also serve as the advisor and dealer manager, respectively, for KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc., KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc., KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. and KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, no transactions occurred between the Company and these other KBS-sponsored programs.

Advances from Advisor and Joint Venture Performance Fees
Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor agreed to advance funds to the Company equal to the amount by which the cumulative amount of distributions declared by the Company from January 1, 2006 through the period ending August 31, 2010 exceeded the amount of the Company’s cumulative Funds from Operations (as defined below) from January 1, 2006 through August 31, 2010. The Advisor agreed that the Company will only be obligated to reimburse the Advisor for these advances if and to the extent that the Company’s cumulative Funds from Operations for the period commencing January 1, 2006 through the date of any such reimbursement exceed the lesser of (i) the cumulative amount of any distributions declared and payable to the Company’s stockholders as of the date of such reimbursement or (ii) an amount that is equal to a 7.0% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on invested capital for the Company’s stockholders for the period from July 18, 2006 through the date of such reimbursement. No interest accrues on the advance made by the Advisor. No amounts have been advanced since January 2007. The Advisory Agreement defines Funds from Operations as funds from operations as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts plus (i) any acquisition expenses and acquisition fees expensed by the Company and that are related to any property, loan or other investment acquired or expected to be acquired by the Company and (ii) any non-operating noncash charges incurred by the Company, such as impairments of property or loans, any other than temporary impairments of real estate securities, or other similar charges. The Company and the Advisor agreed that the Advisor will not extend the agreement to advance funds for distribution record dates after August 31, 2010.
Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor may also earn a performance fee related to the Company’s investment in the National Industrial Portfolio that would in effect make the Advisor’s cumulative fees related to the investment equal to 0.75% of the cost of the joint venture investment on an annualized basis from the date of the Company’s investment in the joint venture through the date of calculation. This fee is conditioned upon the amount of the Company’s Funds from Operations (as defined in the Advisory Agreement). The Company’s operations from the date of the Company’s investment through March 31, 2010 were sufficient to meet the Funds from Operations condition per the Advisory Agreement. Beginning in April 2010, the Company’s operations did not meet the Funds from Operations condition per the Advisory Agreement. As a result, as of September 30, 2011, the Company had accrued for incurred but unpaid performance fees of $5.4 million from inception through March 31, 2010. Although these performance fees have been incurred as of September 30, 2011, the Advisory Agreement further provides that the payment of these fees shall only be made after the repayment of advances from the Advisor. As of September 30, 2011, $1.6 million of advances from the Advisor remain unpaid.

14. | CONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURE AND NONCONTROLLING INTEREST |
The Company holds an 80% membership interest in a joint venture with New Leaf Industrial Partners Fund, L.P. (“New Leaf”). The joint venture, referred to as the “National Industrial Portfolio,” owns 23 industrial properties and holds a master lease with a remaining term of 11.5 years with respect to another industrial property. Although the Company holds an 80% membership interest and income, losses and distributions are generally allocated based on the members’ respective membership interests, the Company and New Leaf have equal voting rights with regard to certain major decisions. Based on these facts, the Company determined its investment in the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture to be a variable interest, and therefore, the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture to be a variable interest entity.
New Leaf is the manager of the joint venture; however, its authority is limited. It may not cause the joint venture to undertake activities or incur expenses with respect to the National Industrial Portfolio properties not authorized by the operating agreement, the approved budget or the approved business plan, except certain limited expenditures. New Leaf also may not cause the joint venture to make certain decisions without the Company’s consent, including any action that would reasonably be expected to have a substantial or material effect upon the joint venture, any of its subsidiaries or the National Industrial Portfolio properties. Under the terms of the operating agreement for the joint venture, the Company and New Leaf may be required to make additional capital contributions to the joint venture to fund operating reserves or expenses approved in the budget or business plan.

Due to provisions within the joint venture agreement that would allow the Company to exercise control over the liquidation of the joint venture, the Company concluded that it is the primary beneficiary of this variable interest entity. Therefore, the Company consolidates the joint venture in its financial statements and records the portion of the joint venture not owned by the Company as noncontrolling interest. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture recognized net income of $1.0 million, of which $0.2 million was allocated to the noncontrolling interest.

15. | INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES |
HSC Partners Joint Venture
On July 8, 2009, the Company released the borrowers under two investments in mezzanine loans from liability and received preferred membership interests in a joint venture (the “HSC Partners Joint Venture”) that indirectly owns the properties that had served as collateral for the loans. The interests were initially recorded by the Company at a fair value of $0 based on the estimated fair value of the collateral at the time of receipt of the preferred membership interests. The Company accounts for its preferred membership interests in the HSC Partners Joint Venture under the equity method of accounting since the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the HSC Partners Joint Venture, but does have more than a minor interest. Since the Company will most likely only receive preferred distributions equivalent to the interest income it would have earned on its mezzanine loan investments, the Company’s application of the equity method of accounting to these preferred interests results in the Company recording all distributions received as income. The Company does not record its share of the changes in the book value of the HSC Partners Joint Venture as it is not required to absorb losses and does not expect increases in the book value of the HSC Partners Joint Venture to have any material impact on the cash flows it will receive over the course of the investment. On July 8, 2011, the members of the HSC Partners Joint Venture entered into an amendment to its joint venture operating agreement to convert another lender’s $30.0 million of outstanding mezzanine debt into preferred membership interests. The HSC Partners Joint Venture also agreed that any cash flows from the joint venture remaining after monthly debt service payments to existing mortgage and mezzanine lenders would be used to pay down principal. Accordingly, the Company does not expect to receive future income from its investment in the HSC Partners Joint Venture until the outstanding mortgage and mezzanine lenders are paid in full. During three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recognized $0.8 million and $5.0 million, respectively, of preferred distributions as income from the HSC Partners Joint Venture. The Company does not expect to receive future income from its investment in the HSC Partners Joint Venture.
Citizens Bank Joint Venture
The Company, through the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, will receive a 99% interest in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture prior to December 15, 2011. The Citizens Bank Joint Venture owns approximately 52 bank branch properties occupied primarily by Citizens Bank. Although the Company will have a majority interest in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture, it will only have a 33% voting interest and will not have the power to direct certain activities. Under the joint venture agreement, any major decision would require a unanimous consent from the joint venture’s authorized representatives. Based on these facts, the Company determined its investment in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture to be a variable interest since it has disproportionately few voting rights. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of this variable interest entity, as the Company does not have the power to direct certain activities, and the Company accounts for the interest in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture under the equity method of accounting. At the Effective Date, the Company’s interest in the joint venture was recorded at a fair value of $0 based on the estimated fair value of the collateral. See also Note 19, “Subsequent Events — Citizens Bank Joint Venture.”

The Company presently operates in three business segments based on its investment types: real estate, real estate-related and GKK Properties. Under the real estate segment, the Company has invested primarily in office and industrial properties located throughout the United States. Under the real estate-related segment, the Company has invested in and originated mortgage loans, mezzanine loans and other real estate-related assets, including mortgage-backed securities and preferred membership interest investments. Under the GKK Properties segment, the Company has received or will receive transfers of the Equity Interests in the indirect owners of, or holders of a leasehold interest in, primarily office and bank branch properties located throughout the United States. All revenues earned from the Company’s three operating segments were from external customers and there were no intersegment sales or transfers. The Company does not allocate corporate-level accounts to its operating segments. Corporate-level accounts include corporate general and administrative expenses, non-operating interest income and other corporate-level expenses. The accounting policies of the segments are consistent with those described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”
The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based upon net operating income from continuing operations (“NOI”), which is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure. The Company defines NOI for its real estate segment as operating revenues (rental income, tenant reimbursements and other operating income) less property and related expenses (property operating expenses, real estate taxes, insurance, asset management fees and provision for bad debt) less interest expense. The Company defines NOI for its real estate-related segment as interest income and income from its unconsolidated joint venture investment less loan servicing costs, asset management fees and interest expense. NOI excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of an asset such as non-property income and expenses, depreciation and amortization, and corporate general and administrative expenses. The Company uses NOI to evaluate the operating performance of the Company’s real estate and real estate-related investments and to make decisions about resource allocations. The Company believes that net income is the GAAP measure that is most directly comparable to NOI; however, NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of operating performance as it excludes the items described above. Additionally, NOI as defined above may not be comparable to other REITs or companies as their definitions of NOI may differ from the Company’s definition.

18. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
Lease Obligations
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company indirectly received or will indirectly receive leasehold interests in certain commercial properties. The property leases have expiration dates between 2011 and 2085 and the ground leases have expiration dates between 2012 and 2101. These lease obligations generally contain rent increases and renewal options. In certain instances, the rent owed by the Company to the owner of the property under the lease is greater than the revenue received by the Company from the tenants occupying the properties.
Future minimum lease payments owed by the Company under non-cancelable operating leases as of September 30, 2011 are as follows (in thousands):

Concentration of Credit Risk
Because the Company consolidated in its financial statements as of the Effective Date all of the assets and liabilities assumed or to be assumed by the Company in connection with the Transfers of the Equity Interests pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, including the Equity Interests in entities owning the GKK Properties occupied by Bank of America, N.A., as of September 30, 2011, Bank of America, N.A., represented approximately 23% of the Company’s annualized base rent. Bank of America Corporation is the guarantor of various leases that its subsidiary, Bank of America, N.A., has or will have with the Company. See Note 4, “Real Estate Held For Investment.”
Environmental
As an owner of real estate, the Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state and local governments. Although there can be no assurance, the Company is not aware of any environmental liability that could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. However, changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations, the uses and conditions of properties in the vicinity of the Company’s properties, the activities of its tenants and other environmental conditions of which the Company is unaware with respect to the properties could result in future environmental liabilities.
Since under the Settlement Agreement, the Company is indirectly taking or will indirectly take title to or, with respect to a limited number of the GKK Properties, indirectly taking or will indirectly take a leasehold interest in, the GKK Properties through the Transfers of Equity Interests, the GKK Properties are being transferred to us on an “as is” basis. As such, the Company was not able and will not be able to inspect the GKK Properties or conduct standard due diligence on certain of the GKK Properties before the Transfers. Additionally, the Company did not receive representations, warranties and indemnities relating to the GKK Properties from Gramercy and/or its affiliates. Thus, the value of the GKK Properties may decline if the Company subsequently discovers environmental problems with the GKK Properties.
Legal Matters
From time to time, the Company is party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Management is not aware of any legal proceedings of which the outcome is probable or reasonably possible to have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition, which would require accrual or disclosure of the contingency and possible range of loss. Additionally, the Company has not recorded any loss contingencies related to legal proceedings in which the potential loss is deemed to be remote.
The Company evaluates subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.
Distributions Paid
On October 14, 2011, the Company paid distributions of $8.2 million, which related to distributions declared for each day in the period from September 1, 2011 through September 30, 2011.
Distributions Declared
On September 28, 2011, the Company’s board of directors declared distributions based on daily record dates for the period from October 1, 2011 through October 31, 2011, which the Company expects to pay in November 2011, and on October 28, 2011, the Company’s board of directors declared distributions based on daily records for the period from November 1, 2011 through November 30, 2011, which the Company expects to pay in December 2011. Investors may choose to receive cash distributions or purchase additional shares through the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan.
Distributions for these periods will be calculated based on stockholders of record each day during these periods at a rate of $0.00143836 per share per day and equal a daily amount that, if paid each day for a 365-day period, would equal a 5.25% annualized rate based on a purchase price of $10.00 per share or a 7.17% annualized rate based on shares purchased under the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan at the current price per share of $7.32.

Financings Subsequent to September 30, 2011
South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loan
On October 25, 2011, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a mortgage loan with an unaffiliated lender, for $27.5 million secured by South Towne Corporate Center I and II (the “South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loan”). The South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loan matures on November 1, 2015, with an option to extend the maturity date to November 1, 2016, subject to certain conditions contained in the loan agreement. The South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loan bears interest at a variable rate of 200 basis points over one-month LIBOR. Monthly payments on the South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loan are interest-only, with the entire principal amount, plus any outstanding interest and fees, due at maturity.
Pay-off of the Sabal IV Mortgage Loan and Addition to the Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan Facility
On March 5, 2007, in connection with the acquisition of the Sabal IV Building, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a mortgage loan with an unaffiliated lender for $11.0 million secured by the Sabal IV Building (the “Sabal IV Mortgage Loan”). The Sabal IV Mortgage Loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 5.14% per annum for the first two years and 5.84% thereafter and matured on October 1, 2011. On October 3, 2011, the Company paid off the entire principal balance outstanding and accrued interest in the amount of $11.1 million.
On July 9, 2008, certain of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a secured four-year mortgage loan agreement with an unaffiliated lender providing for a mortgage loan facility in the maximum principal amount of $158.7 million (the “Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan Facility”), subject to certain borrowing limitations, secured by various real estate properties owned by these wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The determination of the maximum principal amount of the Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan Facility was based on a percentage of the appraised value of the properties in the portfolio that secure the loan. The maturity date of the loan is July 9, 2012, with two one-year extension options subject to certain conditions. On October 27, 2011, the Sabal IV Building was added to the Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan Facility and an additional $7.5 million was funded to the Company. The Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan, including the additional $7.5 million secured by the Sabal IV Building, bears interest at a floating rate of 220 basis points over one-month LIBOR. Because of the prior removal from the portfolio of some of the real estate properties that secured the Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan, as of October 27, 2011, and after the funding of the additional $7.5 million, the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the loan is $107.9 million, which is the maximum amount that may be drawn under the loan.
Citizens Bank Joint Venture
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company will receive the Equity Interests in the entity which owns a 99% interest in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture prior to December 15, 2011. On October 24, 2011, the member of the Citizens Bank Joint Venture that holds the 1% interest assigned its entire interest in the joint venture to the 99% interest holder. As a result of the assignment, the Company is deemed to have control of the Citizens Bank Joint Venture and will consolidate the Citizens Bank Joint Venture as of the assignment date. As of September 30, 2011, estimated fair value of both the real estate and mortgage debt was approximately $61.6 million.
San Antonio Business Park Mortgage Loan
On March 28, 2008, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, purchased a first mortgage loan secured by the San Antonio Business Park (the “San Antonio Business Park Mortgage Loan”) from an unaffiliated seller. The San Antonio Business Park consists of two office-flex properties containing 411,959 square feet in San Antonio, Texas. On October 14, 2011, the Company entered into a mortgage loan sale agreement to sell the San Antonio Business Park Mortgage Loan to an unaffiliated buyer for $22.0 million. In addition, the Company has a subordinated participation interest in the loan, whereby the buyer will receive 100% of cash flows from the loan until such time as its $22.0 million investment has been repaid in full plus any accrued interest and expenses incurred by the buyer. The Company would receive any remaining cash flows thereafter. As of September 30, 2011, the Company has not recorded any loan loss reserve related to this loan as the fair value of the future cash flows the Company anticipates to receive related to this loan exceeds the book value of the loan. As of September 30, 2011, the book value of the loan was $25.7 million.

20. | GKK BORROWER FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
The summarized unaudited financial information derived from Gramercy’s real estate segment, as disclosed in its Annual Reports on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC, and adjusted for discontinued operations and certain general and administrative expenses, is below.
For periods prior to Gramercy’s acquisition of AFR on April 1, 2008, AFR’s historical summary financial information is presented. For the periods subsequent to Gramercy’s acquisition of AFR, the summary consolidated financial information of the GKK Borrower is presented. The Company is providing the consolidated financial information of the GKK Borrower for the periods after April 1, 2008 because the only assets of the GKK Borrower are ownership interests in AFR and subsidiaries of AFR and the GKK Mezzanine Loan was secured by pledges of 100% of the equity interests in AFR and 100% or less of the equity interests in certain subsidiaries of AFR. The consolidated financial information of the GKK Borrower is not directly comparable to historical financial information of AFR due to closing adjustments associated with Gramercy’s acquisition of AFR.

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 KBS Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “should” or similar expressions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law.
The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all of the risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:
| |
• | We have a limited operating history. This inexperience makes our future performance difficult to predict. |
| |
• | All of our executive officers, some of our directors and other key real estate and debt finance professionals are also officers, directors, managers, key professionals and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor, the entity that acted as our dealer manager and other KBS-affiliated entities. As a result, they face conflicts of interest, including significant conflicts created by our advisor’s compensation arrangements with us and other KBS-advised programs and investors and conflicts in allocating time among us and these other programs and investors. These conflicts could result in unanticipated actions. |
| |
• | We depend on tenants for our revenue and, accordingly, our revenue is dependent upon the success and economic viability of our tenants. Revenues from our properties could decrease due to a reduction in tenants (caused by factors including, but not limited to, tenant defaults, tenant insolvency, early termination of tenant leases and non-renewal of existing tenant leases) and/or lower rental rates, making it more difficult for us to meet our debt service obligations and limiting our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. |
| |
• | We may not be able to refinance our existing indebtedness or to obtain additional debt financing on attractive terms. If we are not able to refinance existing indebtedness on attractive terms at its maturity, we may be forced to dispose of our assets sooner than we otherwise would. We may not have sufficient liquidity, whether from our operations or our dividend reinvestment plan, to fund our future capital needs and, as a result of the debt we have assumed or will assume in relation to the GKK Properties (defined below), we presently have extremely limited additional borrowing capacity. Additionally, the Amended Repurchase Agreements (defined below) and/ or some of our other debt, including debt we have assumed or will assume in relation to the GKK Properties that are being transferred under the Settlement Agreement (defined below), contain restrictive covenants relating to our operations, our ability to incur additional debt and our ability to declare distributions. |
| |
• | Our investments in real estate and mortgage, mezzanine, bridge and other loans as well as investments in real estate securities may be affected by unfavorable real estate market and general economic conditions, which could decrease the value of those assets and reduce the investment return to our stockholders. Revenues from our real property investments could decrease, making it more difficult for us to meet our debt service obligations and limiting our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. Revenues from the properties and other assets directly securing our loan investments and underlying our investments in real estate securities could decrease, making it more difficult for the borrower to meet its payment obligations to us. In addition, decreases in revenues from the properties directly securing our loan investments and underlying our investments in real estate securities could result in decreased valuations for those properties, which could make it difficult for our borrowers to repay or refinance their obligations to us. These factors could make it more difficult for us to meet our debt service obligations and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. |
| |
• | Continued disruptions in the financial markets and deteriorating economic conditions could adversely affect the value of our investments. |

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
| |
• | Certain of our debt obligations have variable interest rates with interest and related payments that vary with the movement of LIBOR or other indexes. Increases in the indexes could increase the amount of our debt payments and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. |
| |
• | We cannot predict with any certainty how much, if any, of our dividend reinvestment plan proceeds will be available for general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, the redemption of shares under our share redemption program, the funding of capital expenditures on our real estate investments, the funding of outstanding loan commitments on our real estate loans receivable, or the repayment of debt. If such funds are not available from the dividend reinvestment plan offering, then we may have to use a greater proportion of our cash flow from operations to meet these cash requirements, which would reduce cash available for distributions, and we would continue to be limited in our ability to redeem any shares under our share redemption program. |
| |
• | During the term of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, we agreed to continue to limit redemptions under our share redemption program to those redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined in the share redemption program). These restrictions will likely be in place until April 28, 2013. Moreover, we do not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future except potentially from funds generated from asset sales. |
| |
• | In relation to the Settlement Agreement, we may not be able to obtain the consents or approvals of certain Mortgage Pool (defined below) lenders to prevent defaults under the Mortgage Pools upon the Transfers (defined below) of Equity Interests (defined below) pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, which defaults could result in our losing part or all of the GKK Properties securing certain Mortgage Pools. |
| |
• | We may not be able to enforce the Settlement Agreement, especially if GKK Stars (defined below) or its affiliates file for bankruptcy or are otherwise the subject of an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding. |
| |
• | We may not be able successfully operate and sell the GKK Properties transferred or to be transferred under the Settlement Agreement given current economic conditions and the concentration of the GKK Properties in the financial services sector, the significant debt obligations we have assumed or will assume with respect to such GKK Properties, and our advisor’s limited experience operating and selling bank branch properties. |
| |
• | Delays in our timely receipt of financial information on the GKK Properties from the property managers may make it difficult for us to meet our reporting obligation deadlines. |
| |
• | As a result of the GKK Properties transferred or to be transferred under the Settlement Agreement, a significant portion of our properties will be leased to financial institutions, making us more economically vulnerable in the event of a downturn in the banking industry. |
All forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risks identified in our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on November 9, 2011 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Overview
We are a Maryland corporation that was formed on June 13, 2005 to invest in a diverse portfolio of real estate properties and real estate-related investments. We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2006 and we intend to operate in such a manner. We own substantially all of our assets and conduct our operations through our Operating Partnership, of which we are the sole general partner. Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, our business is managed by KBS Capital Advisors LLC (“KBS Capital Advisors”), our external advisor, pursuant to an advisory agreement. Our advisor owns 20,000 shares of our common stock. We have no paid employees.
On January 27, 2006, we launched our initial public offering of up to 200,000,000 shares of common stock in our primary offering and 80,000,000 shares of common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan. We ceased offering shares of common stock in our primary offering on May 30, 2008. We continue to issue shares of common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan. We sold 171,109,494 shares in our primary offering for gross offering proceeds of $1.7 billion and, as of September 30, 2011, we had sold 25,013,478 shares under our dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $211.0 million.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
As of September 30, 2011, we owned 54 real estate properties (including one office property that is held for sale and excluding the GKK Properties defined below), one master lease, nine real estate loans receivable, two investments in securities directly or indirectly backed by commercial mortgage loans, and a preferred membership interest in a real estate joint venture. Also, as of September 30, 2011, we owned a 10-story condominium building with 62 units acquired through foreclosure, of which four condominium units, two retail spaces and parking spaces were held for sale.
In addition, on September 1, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), we, through indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, “KBS”), entered into a Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with, among other parties, GKK Stars Acquisition LLC (“GKK Stars”), the wholly owned subsidiary of Gramercy Capital Corp. (“Gramercy”) that indirectly owns the Gramercy real estate portfolio, to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS in satisfaction of certain debt obligations owed by wholly owned subsidiaries of Gramercy to KBS. The Settlement Agreement contemplates the transfer of the equity interests in certain subsidiaries of Gramercy (the “Equity Interests”) that indirectly own or, with respect to a limited number of properties, hold a leasehold interest in, approximately 815 properties (the “GKK Properties”), including approximately 524 bank branch properties and approximately 291 office buildings, operations centers and other properties, as well as a 99% interest in a joint venture that owns approximately 52 bank branch properties occupied primarily by Citizens Bank (the “Citizens Bank Joint Venture”). As of September 30, 2011, GKK Stars had transferred certain Equity Interests to us, giving us title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, a leasehold interest in, 317 of the GKK Properties and we will take title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, will take a leasehold interest in, an additional 498 of the GKK Properties no later than December 15, 2011.
Our focus in 2011 is to manage our existing portfolio. To the extent we receive proceeds from the repayment of real estate-related investments or the sale of properties in 2011, we are required under existing financing agreements to use a majority of these funds to pay down debt and maintain a liquidity reserve, but may use a portion of the funds to pay distributions to our stockholders.
Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan
Background
On August 22, 2008, we, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, acquired a senior mezzanine loan with a face amount of $500,000,000 (the “GKK Mezzanine Loan”). The GKK Mezzanine Loan was used to finance a portion of Gramercy’s acquisition of American Financial Realty Trust (“AFR”) and its real estate portfolio that closed on April 1, 2008. Also in connection with its acquisition of AFR, Gramercy, through wholly owned subsidiaries, secured senior mortgage financing (the “Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan”) and junior mezzanine financing (the “Junior Mezzanine Loan”) from Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company (“Goldman”), Citicorp North America, Inc. (“Citi”) and SL Green Realty Corp. Commencing on March 11, 2011, we, through indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a series of extension agreements to extend the maturity date of the GKK Mezzanine Loan to May 6, 2011. The extension agreements related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan also extended the maturity dates of the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan and the Junior Mezzanine Loan to May 6, 2011. On May 6, 2011, the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan, the GKK Mezzanine Loan and the Junior Mezzanine Loan (collectively, the “GKK Loans”) matured and all amounts outstanding under these loans became due and payable by the wholly owned subsidiaries of Gramercy that were the borrowers under the respective loan agreements (collectively, the “GKK Borrower”). As such, as of May 6, 2011, the GKK Loans were in default.
On September 1, 2011, we, through KBS, entered into (a) the Settlement Agreement with, among other parties, GKK Stars, and (b) an Acknowledgment and Consent Agreement with, among other parties, Goldman and Citi, to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS in satisfaction of certain debt obligations owed to KBS by the GKK Borrower. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, on September 1, 2011, KBS indirectly took title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, took a leasehold interest in, 317 of the GKK Properties and will take title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, will take a leasehold interest in, an additional 498 of the GKK Properties no later than December 15, 2011. Such transfers of the Equity Interests in the owners of, or in the holders of leasehold interests in, the GKK Properties are referred to herein as the “Transfers.”

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Repurchase Agreements
The GKK Mezzanine Loan is security for two repurchase agreements: one with Goldman and one with Citigroup Financial Products Inc. (“Citigroup” and, together with Goldman, the “GKK Lenders”). On April 28, 2011, our subsidiaries that are the borrowers under the repurchase agreements (individually and collectively, “KBS GKK”) and the GKK Lenders amended and restated the repurchase agreements, which agreements were further amended on May 10, 2011 and on September 1, 2011 (the “Amended Repurchase Agreements”). The purposes of the Amended Repurchase Agreements were, among others, to (i) extend the maturity dates of the existing repurchase agreements between KBS GKK, and Goldman and Citigroup, respectively, dated August 22, 2008, as amended, (ii) provide for additional security for the GKK Lenders under the Amended Repurchase Agreements, and (iii) set certain conditions that, on the date met (the “Conversion Date”), would automatically convert the Amended Repurchase Agreements into a mezzanine loan.
The Amended Repurchase Agreements will terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) April 28, 2013, (ii) the Conversion Date, (iii) the full payment of all obligations under the Amended Repurchase Agreements, or (iv) upon an event causing the Amended Repurchase Agreements to otherwise terminate.
As part of the closing of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, we paid $120 million in the aggregate to the GKK Lenders, of which approximately $115 million was used for the reduction of the principal balance under the Amended Repurchase Agreements (the “Principal Payment”), with the remaining $5 million used for accrued interest, and costs and expenses incurred by the GKK Lenders in connection with the closing of the Amended Repurchase Agreements. On May 10, 2011, the GKK Lenders advanced an additional $34.4 million under the Amended Repurchase Agreements to fund our acquisition, through KBS GKK, of a subordinated portion of the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan (the “GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan”). Additionally, in connection with the acquisition of the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan, on May 10, 2011, the GKK Lenders advanced an additional $8.5 million under the Amended Repurchase Agreements to fund our acquisition, through KBS GKK, of a subordinated portion of the Junior Mezzanine Loan (the “GKK Junior Mezzanine Tranche”).
As of September 30, 2011, the Amended Repurchase Agreements had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $180.7 million. The Amended Repurchase Agreements are secured by participation interests in the GKK Mezzanine Loan, the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan, the GKK Junior Mezzanine Tranche and the Equity Interests.
The Amended Repurchase Agreements bear interest at an annual rate of 350 basis points over one-month LIBOR. In addition to monthly interest payments under the terms of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, we, through KBS GKK, were and are required to make certain mandatory payments to the GKK Lenders as follows:
| |
(i) | on October 15, 2011, we made an amortization payment of $35 million; |
| |
(ii) | every three months from October 15, 2011 through April 2013, amortization payments of approximately $24.3 million, which payments may be decreased by KBS GKK making any prepayments of principal, including any mandatory or voluntary prepayments of principal; |
| |
(iii) | on October 15, 2011, we made payments relating to the acquisition of the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan and the GKK Junior Mezzanine Tranche in the amount of $1.6 million, and we must make payments in the amount of $1.1 million every three months thereafter through April 2013; |
| |
(iv) | all proceeds received by KBS GKK related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan; and |
| |
(v) | 75% to 100% of excess cash flows or net cash proceeds from: (a) the foreclosure or sale of the GKK Properties; (b) the sale of certain real estate-related debt investments owned by us; (c) the sale of substantially all other properties owned by us, in excess of $75 million in the aggregate in any calendar year; and (d) certain indebtedness incurred or equity issued (excluding proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan), by us. |
KBS GKK may voluntarily prepay amounts outstanding under the Amended Repurchase Agreements without prepayment penalties.
In the event of: (i) a default under the Amended Repurchase Agreements; or (ii) bankruptcy or an act of insolvency with respect to the borrowers under the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan, the GKK Borrower or the borrowers under the Junior Mezzanine Loan, provided that such borrowers are then affiliates of us, the GKK Lenders shall have all voting and consent rights with respect to the GKK Mezzanine Loan.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
The Amended Repurchase Agreements require KBS GKK and its subsidiaries, and us and certain of our subsidiaries that indirectly own most of our assets (collectively, the “Guarantors”), to meet certain financial and other covenants, which include, among other covenants, the requirements (i) for the Guarantors to maintain minimum liquidity of $9.0 million for the four month period beginning in May 2011, and $19.0 million thereafter and (ii) for KBS GKK to use its best efforts to comply with certain foreclosure procedures in connection with the exercise of remedies under the GKK Mezzanine Loan. The Guarantors have guaranteed, and other of our subsidiaries as may be added in the future will guarantee, all amounts owed by KBS GKK to the GKK Lenders under the Amended Repurchase Agreements. We also agreed that, unless permitted by or pursuant to the terms of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, during the term of the Amended Repurchase Agreements we would not create or incur additional liens or indebtedness on our assets, make additional investments, or make certain dispositions except pursuant to the mandatory payment provisions discussed above. During the term of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, we also agreed (i) except for distributions to stockholders necessary to maintain our REIT status, to limit distributions to stockholders to an amount not to exceed $6.0 million per month, excluding any distributions to stockholders reinvested in us pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan (currently, distributions are less than $5.0 million per month, excluding distributions reinvested pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan), and (ii) to continue to limit redemptions under the share redemption program to those redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined in the share redemption program).
In connection with its execution of the Settlement Agreement (discussed below), KBS GKK agreed that a default by KBS on any of the five loans specified in the Amended Repurchase Agreements (a “Mortgage Default”), including the Goldman/Citi Mortgage Loan, may, in certain circumstances, constitute a default under the Amended Repurchase Agreements. Under certain conditions, a Mortgage Default would not trigger a default under the Amended Repurchase Agreements if KBS were to transfer the Equity Interests in the owner of the property subject to the Mortgage Default to the GKK Lenders.
Settlement Agreement
On the Effective Date, we, through KBS, entered into (a) the Settlement Agreement with, among other parties, GKK Stars, to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS in satisfaction of certain debt obligations owed by the GKK Borrower to KBS, and (b) an Acknowledgment and Consent Agreement with, among other parties, Goldman and Citi.
Under the Settlement Agreement, GKK Stars agreed to cause the Transfers to KBS of the Equity Interests in the indirect owners of or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, the holders of a leasehold interest in, the GKK Properties, with Transfers to commence on the Effective Date. The Settlement Agreement contemplates the transfer of Equity Interests in entities that own or hold leasehold interests in approximately 815 GKK Properties, including approximately 524 bank branch properties and approximately 291 office buildings, operations centers and other properties, as well as a 99% interest in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture. Our calculated values of the underlying GKK Properties and related current assets and liabilities, supports the approximately $1.9 billion total of the combined outstanding mortgage loan balance encumbering the GKK Properties (including the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan) plus our carrying value of the GKK Mezzanine Loan and GKK Junior Mezzanine Tranche prior to our entry into the Settlement Agreement. As a result, no gain or loss was recorded upon the signing of the Settlement Agreement and the consolidation of the underlying GKK Properties and related assets and liabilities. The fair value of the individual GKK Properties was determined using either a direct capitalization approach (generally for stabilized properties with long-term leases) or a discounted cash flow analysis. The GKK Properties that are or will be wholly owned by our indirect wholly owned subsidiaries have a total of approximately 20.7 million rentable square feet and are located in 36 different states.
Below is a summary of the GKK Properties:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Property Type | | Number of Properties | | Number of States (1) | | Rentable Square Feet | | Average Remaining Lease Term in Years | | Occupancy |
Branch properties | | 524 | | 28 | | 3,397,659 |
| | 6.6 | | 89 | % |
Office buildings/ Operations centers | | 288 | | 36 | | 17,275,203 |

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
On the Effective Date, KBS received Equity Interests in the holders of an interest in 317 of the GKK Properties. Following the Effective Date, KBS will have the right to receive the remaining Equity Interests at the times and in the order of its choosing, pursuant to terms contained in the Settlement Agreement relating to specific Mortgage Pools (defined below). However, if all remaining Equity Interests have not been transferred to KBS by December 15, 2011, it must accept the transfer of all of the Equity Interests in AFR, resulting in the Transfer of the Equity Interests in the owners of any and all of the 498 GKK Properties not yet transferred as well as the interest in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture. With respect to the Transfers, the GKK Borrower has agreed to cooperate with KBS and not to interfere with certain actions taken or to be taken by KBS to effect such Transfers including, among others, KBS’s negotiations with the third-party lenders of the Mortgage Pools to obtain any consents necessary to effectuate the Transfers and the assumption of the Mortgage Pools. As KBS receives each Transfer, the outstanding indebtedness under the GKK Mezzanine Loan will be reduced by agreed upon amounts. The Equity Interests transferred to KBS immediately become additional security for the Amended Repurchase Agreements.
Because the Settlement Agreement provides that KBS must accept the Transfer of all of the remaining Equity Interests that have not been transferred as of December 15, 2011, with the only requirement being the passage of time, and because for accounting purposes (although not for legal purposes), we are deemed to control the decisions that affect the economic outcome of all of the Equity Interests and all of the GKK Properties as of the Effective Date, we have consolidated in our financial statements as of the Effective Date all assets and liabilities assumed or to be assumed by us in connection with the Transfers of the Equity Interests and the GKK Properties to be wholly owned, owned through the Citizens Bank Joint Venture or held through leasehold interests, including the related assumption of the Mortgage Pools and other liabilities related to the GKK Properties to be Transferred. Additionally, the outstanding indebtedness under the GKK Mezzanine Loan has been eliminated in consolidation in our consolidated financial statements.
As of the Effective Date, GKK Stars had agreed to provide: standard asset management services relating to the GKK Properties transferred or to be transferred pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (the “Services”) through December 31, 2013, which Services may be terminated by either GKK Stars or KBS at any time on 90 days prior written notice, subject to certain additional termination rights and restrictions; and to provide us with financial information for the GKK Properties for fiscal year 2011. As compensation for the Services, KBS agreed to pay to GKK Stars: (i) an annual fee of $10 million (prorated for incomplete years) plus all property-related expenses incurred by GKK Stars, (ii) subject to certain terms and conditions in the Settlement Agreement, participation interests in the amounts by which the net sales proceeds from the sale of the GKK Properties plus the remaining net value of KBS’ remaining assets exceed certain threshold amounts, and (iii) subject to certain conditions in the Settlement Agreement, a minimum of $3.5 million. Accordingly, we have recorded a contingent liability of $12.0 million based on the expected consideration to be paid as a result of GKK Stars’ participation interests. GKK Stars and KBS have agreed to negotiate a separate management services agreement to further outline the terms and conditions under which GKK Stars or one of its affiliates would continue to provide the Services for KBS. The terms of such an agreement have not yet been finalized; however, and there can be no assurance that GKK Stars or one of its affiliates and KBS will ever consummate such an agreement. In the event KBS and GKK Stars or one of its affiliates are unable to consummate such an agreement by March 31, 2012, the terms for the provision of the Services under the Settlement Agreement shall automatically terminate on June 30, 2012, though, in certain circumstances, GKK Stars will retain its right to the participation interests and minimum threshold described above.
Prior to the Transfers, the GKK Borrower agreed to refrain from entering into certain agreements relating to the Gramercy real estate portfolio, incurring debt except as permitted in the loan agreement relating to the GKK Mezzanine Loan, making certain transfers of the GKK Properties and making certain distributions. So long as KBS is still obligated under certain Mortgage Pools, the Guarantor and our indirect wholly owned subsidiaries created to receive the Equity Interests may not incur debt for borrowed money in excess of $180 million (which may be increased to $200 million under certain circumstances), other than mortgage financing secured by, among other things, interests in real property, and other than the GKK Mezzanine Loan.
With the exception of 52 unencumbered properties, including 38 properties in which we have received or will receive leasehold interests, and properties that would be held through the Citizens Bank Joint Venture, the GKK Properties subject to the Transfers are divided into 25 separate property pools with each property pool being encumbered by a mortgage loan in favor of a third-party lender (collectively, the “Mortgage Pools” and individually, a “Mortgage Pool”), except for the $34.3 million GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan that we own. As of September 30, 2011, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Pools was $1.5 billion, including the GKK Subordinated Mortgage Loan, which had a balance of $34.3 million. As of September 30, 2011, the Mortgage Pools had a total of $1.0 billion of fixed rate notes payable with a weighted-average annual effective interest rate of 5.8% and a total of $0.5 billion of variable rate notes payable with a weighted-average annual effective interest rate of 3.0%.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
On September 1, 2011, in connection with the initial Transfer of Equity Interests under the Settlement Agreement, we assumed five of the mortgage loans in the amount of $269.2 million and received Equity Interests in the owners of the GKK Properties securing these loans. As of September 30, 2011, we were in the process of negotiating with the lenders for their consent to assume the remainder of the mortgage loans in the amount of $1.2 billion. In order to obtain their consent, some of the contractual terms of the loans may be modified. We anticipate our assumptions of these loans to occur by December 15, 2011 and if we are unable to reach an agreement, the lenders under these mortgage loans could pursue the remedies specified in the loan documents in relation to the underlying GKK Properties, which could result in our losing part or all of these GKK Properties.
Market Outlook – Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets
During the past three years, significant and widespread concerns about credit risk and access to capital have been present in the U.S. and global financial markets. Economies throughout the world have experienced increased unemployment and sagging consumer confidence due to a downturn in economic activity. Amid signs of recovery in the economic and financial markets, concerns remain regarding job growth, wage stagnation, credit restrictions and increased taxation. Recent global economic events centered on the possible default of sovereign government debt in Europe and the lowering of the credit rating of the United States by Standard & Poor’s to AA+ from AAA have increased market volatility.
The health of the global capital markets remains a concern. The banking industry has been experiencing improved earnings, but the relatively low growth economic environment has caused the markets to question whether financial institutions are truly appropriately capitalized. The credit downgrade of the United States has increased these concerns, especially for the larger, money center banks. Smaller financial institutions have continued to work with borrowers to amend and extend existing loans; however, as these loans reach maturity, there is the potential for future credit losses. The FDIC’s list of troubled financial institutions is still quite large and the threat of more bank closings will weigh heavily on the financial markets.
In Europe, the growing sovereign debt crisis remains a concern. The European banking system holds material quantities of sovereign debt on their balance sheets. A default or restructuring in any of a number of issuers could have a negative impact on the global banking system. The uncertainty surrounding the size of the problem and how regulators and governments intend to deal with the situation has caused many investors to reassess their pricing of risks. In response to the growing crisis the global credit markets have tightened, and the cost of capital, in general, has begun to increase.
Throughout the financial crisis and economic downturn, U.S. commercial real estate transactions experienced a sharp decline in volume. Very little market activity (buying or selling) took place in 2009 and the first half of 2010. In the second half of 2010 and the first half of 2011 the markets experienced a rebound in transaction activity. High-quality assets in primary (top-tier) markets experienced the largest increase in transaction volume. This resurgence in market activity has spread to secondary and tertiary markets as post-crisis market conditions improved and economic growth stabilized.
Beginning in 2010, the U.S. commercial real estate industry has experienced some improvement in fundamental credit statistics such as occupancy, rental rates and pricing. Continued improvement in these fundamentals remains contingent upon sustainable economic growth, which is by no means a given. In general, borrower defaults may rise, and occupancy and rental rate stabilization will vary by market and by property type. Looking forward, it is widely assumed that mortgage delinquencies have not yet peaked.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
It is important to remember that these trends have only recently begun and an improvement in one aspect of the market does not provide an indication of a general market recovery or provide any indication of the duration of the existing downturn, or the speed of any expected recovery. Recent setbacks in the demand for CMBS securities serve as a reminder that the health of the global capital markets is still fragile.
Despite improved access to capital for some companies, the aforementioned economic conditions have continued to impact the capital markets. Global government interventions in the banking system and the persistence of a highly expansionary monetary policy by the U.S. Treasury have introduced additional complexity and uncertainty to the markets. The U.S. government’s recent introduction of additional regulation to the financial markets, including the banking, insurance and brokerage sectors, has resulted in general uncertainty as to the long-term impact on these markets and on the economy as a whole. Adding to this uncertainty are increased disclosure requirements and changes to accounting principles involving the valuation of investments. These conditions are expected to continue, and combined with a challenging macro-economic environment, may interfere with the implementation of our business strategy and/or force us to modify it.
Impact on Our Real Estate Investments
These market conditions have had and will likely continue to have a significant impact on our real estate investments. In addition, these market conditions have impacted our tenants’ businesses, which makes it more difficult for them to meet current lease obligations and places pressure on them to negotiate favorable lease terms upon renewal in order for their businesses to remain viable. Increases in rental concessions given to retain tenants and maintain our occupancy level, which is vital to the continued success of our portfolio, has resulted in lower current cash flow. Projected future declines in rental rates, slower or potentially negative net absorption of leased space and expectations of future rental concessions, including free rent to retain tenants who are up for renewal or to sign new tenants, are expected to result in additional decreases in cash flows. Historically low interest rates have helped offset some of the impact of these decreases in operating cash flow for properties financed with variable rate mortgages; however, interest rates likely will not remain at these historically low levels for the remaining life of many of our investments.
Impact on Our Real Estate-Related Investments
Nearly all of our real estate-related investments are either directly secured by commercial real estate (e.g., first deeds of trust or mortgages) or secured by ownership interests in entities that directly or indirectly own and operate real estate (e.g., mezzanine loans). As a result, our real estate-related investments in general have been impacted by the same factors impacting our real estate investments. In particular, our investments in mezzanine loans and B-Notes have been impacted to a greater degree as current valuations for buildings directly or indirectly securing our investment positions have likely decreased from the date of our acquisition or origination of these investments. In such instances, the borrowers may not be able to refinance their debt to us or sell the collateral at a price sufficient to repay our note balances in full when they become due. In addition, current economic conditions have impacted the performance of collateral directly or indirectly securing our loan investments, and therefore have impacted the ability of some borrowers under our loans to make contractual interest payments to us. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded a reduction of loan loss reserve of $3.8 million, which was comprised of a $14.3 million increase of loan loss reserve calculated on an asset-specific basis, offset by a reduction of $18.1 million to our portfolio-based reserve.
Assuming our real estate-related loans are fully extended under the terms of the respective loan agreements and excluding our loan investments with asset-specific loan loss reserves, we do not have any investments maturing within a year from September 30, 2011. We have variable rate real estate-related investments with book values (excluding asset-specific loan loss reserves) of $15.0 million and fixed rate real estate-related investments with book values (excluding asset-specific loan loss reserves) of $144.7 million.

Impact on Our Financing Activities
In light of the risks associated with declining operating cash flows from our real estate properties and the properties directly or indirectly serving as the collateral for our repurchase agreements, and the current underwriting environment for commercial real estate mortgages, we may have difficulty refinancing some of our mortgage notes, credit facilities and repurchase agreements at maturity or may not be able to refinance our obligations at terms as favorable as the terms of our existing indebtedness. Although we believe we will meet or otherwise be permitted to extend the maturity of our current loan agreements, we can give no assurance in this regard. Assuming our notes payable, credit facilities and repurchase agreements are fully extended under the terms of the respective loan agreements, we have $868.8 million of debt obligations maturing during the 12 months ending September 30, 2012. On August 9, 2011 we, through the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture, extended the terms of the loan agreements relating to $443.6 million of mortgage and mezzanine debt related to our consolidated investment in the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture, which debt was to mature on August 9, 2011, to December 31, 2011, and we may, at our option, further extend the loans to August 9, 2012, subject to certain terms in the loan agreements.
As of September 30, 2011, we had a total of $1.5 billion of fixed rate notes payable and $1.3 billion of variable rate notes payable and repurchase agreements. Of the $1.3 billion of variable rate notes payable and repurchase agreements, $85.4 million are effectively fixed through interest rate swaps. In addition to the debt obligations maturing during the 12 months ending September 30, 2012, we are required to make a minimum of $107.9 million in amortization payments of principal related to the Amended Repurchase Agreements prior to September 30, 2012 and to pay $4.9 million in fees relating to the amendment of these repurchase agreements by September 30, 2012.
As discussed under “— Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan,” we have consolidated in our financial statements as of the Effective Date all assets and liabilities assumed or to be assumed by us in connection with the Transfers of the Equity Interests and the GKK Properties to be wholly owned, owned through the Citizens Bank Joint Venture or held through leasehold interests, including the related assumption of the Mortgage Pools and other liabilities related to the GKK Properties to be transferred. On September 1, 2011, in connection with the initial Transfer of the GKK Properties, we assumed five of the mortgage loans and received Equity Interests in the owners of the GKK Properties securing the loans. As of September 30, 2011, we were in the process of negotiating with the lenders for their consent to assume the remainder of the mortgage loans. In order to obtain their consent, some of the contractual terms of the loans may be modified. We anticipate our assumptions of these loans to occur by December 15, 2011 and if we are unable to reach an agreement, the lenders under these mortgage loans could pursue the remedies specified in the loan documents in relation to the underlying GKK Properties, which could result in our losing part or all of these GKK Properties.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal demands for funds during the short- and long-term are for the payment of operating expenses, capital expenditures, general and administrative expenses, substantial pay down of debt obligations in order to refinance loans with near term maturities and distributions to stockholders. To date, we have had six primary sources of capital for meeting our cash requirements:
| |
• | Proceeds from our primary offering, which closed in 2008; |
| |
• | Proceeds from common stock issued under our dividend reinvestment plan; |
| |
• | Cash flow generated by our real estate operations and real estate-related investments; |
| |
• | Proceeds from the sales of real estate; |
| |
• | Principal repayments on our real estate loans receivable; and |
| |
• | Debt financings, including mortgage loans, repurchase agreements and credit facilities. |
We ceased offering shares of common stock in our primary offering on May 30, 2008 and continue to issue shares under our dividend reinvestment plan. To date, we have invested the proceeds from our initial public offering and do not currently plan to acquire or originate more real estate or real estate-related assets. We intend to use our cash on hand, cash flow generated by our real estate operations and real estate-related investments, funds available under our credit facilities, proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan, proceeds from asset sales and principal repayments on our real estate loans receivable as our primary sources of immediate and long-term liquidity.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
We expect to use our cash flows from operations, and to the extent permitted under our financing agreements, proceeds from the sale of properties in 2011 and proceeds from debt financing to pay distributions to our stockholders. On April 28, 2011, in connection with the amendment and restatement of the repurchase agreements related to our investment in the GKK Mezzanine Loan, we agreed that during the term of the Amended Repurchase Agreements and except for distributions to stockholders necessary to maintain our REIT status, we would limit distributions to stockholders to an amount not to exceed $6.0 million per month, excluding any distributions to stockholders reinvested in our dividend reinvestment plan (currently, distributions are less than $5.0 million per month, excluding distributions reinvested pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan). See “— Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan” above.
Our investments in real estate generate cash flow in the form of rental revenues and tenant reimbursements, which are reduced by operating expenditures, debt service payments and corporate general and administrative expenses. Cash flows from operations from real estate investments is primarily dependent upon the occupancy level of our portfolio, the net effective rental rates on our leases, the collectibility of rent and operating recoveries from our tenants and how well we manage our expenditures. As of September 30, 2011, our real estate portfolio was 81% occupied and our bad debt reserve was approximately 1% of annualized base rent. Our real estate-related investments generate cash flow in the form of interest income, which is reduced by loan servicing fees and debt service payments. Cash flows from operations from our real estate‑related investments is primarily dependent on the operating performance of the underlying collateral and the borrowers’ ability to make their debt service payments. As of September 30, 2011, two of the eight borrowers under our real estate loans receivable were delinquent and these loans have an amortized cost basis of $88.8 million. As a result of these factors, we may experience declines in future cash flows from our real estate and real estate-related investments and we expect an increased need for capital to cover leasing costs and capital improvements needed to maximize the performance of our assets.
We depend on the proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan for general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures on our real estate investments, tenant improvement costs and leasing costs related to our investments in real estate properties; reserves required by financings of our investments in real estate properties; funding obligations under our real estate loans receivable; the repayment of debt; and the repurchase of shares under our share redemption program. During the second half of 2009 and throughout 2010, the participation in our dividend reinvestment plan decreased in comparison to 2008. Further reductions in participation under the dividend reinvestment plan could adversely impact our ability to meet our capital needs and could require us to reduce distributions to stockholders. Based on our 2011 budgeted expenditures, and except with respect to redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence,” we have announced that we do not expect to have funds available for the share redemption program in 2011. On April 28, 2011, in connection with the amendment and restatement of the repurchase agreements related to our investment in the GKK Mezzanine Loan, we agreed that during the term of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, we would continue to limit redemptions under the share redemption program to those sought upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence.” See “— Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan” above. We do not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future except potentially from funds generated from asset sales.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we met our operating cash needs with cash flow generated by our real estate and real estate-related investments, cash on hand, proceeds from the sale of real estate and proceeds from repayments of real estate loans receivable. We believe that our cash flow from operations, expected proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan, principal repayments on our real estate loans receivable, potential proceeds from the sale of assets and availability under our revolving credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the upcoming year. For additional information regarding our cash needs during 2011, see the discussion of our Amended Repurchase Agreements above under “ — Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan” and “ — Contractual Commitments and Contingencies” below.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
As of September 30, 2011, we owned 54 real estate properties (including one office property that is held for sale and excluding the GKK Properties), one master lease, nine real estate loans receivable, two investments in securities directly or indirectly backed by commercial mortgage loans, and a preferred membership interest in a real estate joint venture. In addition, on the Effective Date, we, through KBS, entered into the Settlement Agreement with, among other parties, GKK Stars, to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS in satisfaction of certain debt obligations owed by the GKK Borrower to KBS. The Settlement Agreement contemplates the transfer of the Equity Interests in certain subsidiaries of Gramercy that indirectly own or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, hold a leasehold interest in, approximately 815 GKK Properties, including approximately 524 bank branch properties and approximately 291 office buildings, operations centers and other properties, as well as a 99% interest in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture. As discussed under “ — Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan,” we have consolidated in our financial statements as of the Effective Date all assets and liabilities assumed or to be assumed by us in connection with the Transfers of the Equity Interests and the GKK Properties to be wholly owned, owned through the Citizens Bank Joint Venture or held through leasehold interests, including the related assumption of the Mortgage Pools and other liabilities related to the GKK Properties to be transferred.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net cash provided by operating activities was $42.8 million, compared to $41.6 million of net cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Net cash from operations increased in 2011 primarily as a result of a $16.4 million increase in rental income and tenant reimbursements primarily related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties and a $2.1 million net gain from the sale of real estate and foreclosed real estate held for sale, partially offset by a $21.2 million decrease in interest income from real estate loans receivable.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities was $151.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The sources and uses of cash from investing activities were as follows:
| |
• | $156.1 million of cash provided from the sale of real estate; |
| |
• | $41.2 million of cash used to acquire two real estate loans receivable, partially offset by $0.4 million of cash provided by principal repayments on real estate loans receivable; |
| |
• | $32.1 million of cash received from the Transfer of the GKK Properties; |
| |
• | $20.4 million of cash provided from the sale of foreclosed real estate held for sale; |
| |
• | $19.7 million of cash used for additions to real estate; and |
| |
• | a $2.9 million decrease in restricted cash for capital expenditures relating to the payment of leasing commissions, tenant improvements and capital improvements for the releasing of one of our joint venture properties. |
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $221.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The significant uses of cash for financing activities were as follows:
| |
• | $175.7 million of net cash used for the repayment of debt and other financings as a result of $247.6 million of principal payments on notes payable and repurchase agreements and $10.4 million of payments for related financing costs, partially offset by proceeds from notes payable of $82.3 million; |
| |
• | $38.8 million of net cash used for distributions, after giving effect to dividends reinvested by stockholders of $34.9 million; |
| |
• | $5.1 million of cash used for redemptions of common stock and $0.9 million of cash used for payments of commissions on stock sales; and |
| |
• | $1.2 million of distributions paid to the noncontrolling interest holder of our joint venture investment in the National Industrial Portfolio. |

Contractual Commitments and Contingencies
In order to execute our investment strategy, we utilized mortgage, mezzanine and repurchase financings to finance a portion of our investment portfolio. Management remains vigilant in monitoring the risks inherent with the use of debt in our portfolio and is taking actions to ensure that these risks, including refinancing and interest rate risk, are properly balanced with the benefits of maintaining such leverage. Assuming our notes payable and repurchase agreements are fully extended under the terms of the respective loan agreements, as of September 30, 2011, we had $868.8 million of debt maturing during the 12 months ending September 30, 2012. In addition to the debt obligations maturing during the 12 months ending September 30, 2012, we are required to pay a minimum of $107.9 million in principal amortization payments and $4.9 million in fees under the Amended Repurchase Agreements prior to September 30, 2012. See the discussion regarding the amendment and restatement of the Amended Repurchase Agreements and the GKK Loans above under “— Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan.”
As of September 30, 2011, we had a total of $1.5 billion of fixed rate notes payable and $1.3 billion of variable rate notes payable and repurchase agreements; of the $1.3 billion of variable rate notes payable and repurchase agreements, interest rates on $85.4 million of these notes were effectively fixed through interest rate swaps. As discussed above, during the last three years, the global capital markets have experienced significant dislocations and liquidity disruptions that have caused the credit spreads of debt to fluctuate considerably and caused significant volatility in interest rates, including LIBOR. As of September 30, 2011, we had a total of $1.2 billion of variable rate notes payable and repurchase agreements not subject to interest rate swaps that are impacted by fluctuations in interest rates. While LIBOR currently stands at historically low levels, future volatility in LIBOR may result in the use of increased capital resources to meet our debt obligations.
As discussed under “— Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan,” we have consolidated in our financial statements as of the Effective Date all assets and liabilities assumed or to be assumed by us in connection with the Transfers of the Equity Interests and the GKK Properties to be wholly owned, owned through the Citizens Bank Joint Venture or held through leasehold interests, including the related assumption of the Mortgage Pools and other liabilities related to the GKK Properties to be transferred. In connection with the Transfer of the GKK Properties, we are in the process of negotiating with the lenders for their consent to assume the mortgage loans in the amount of $1.2 billion. In order to obtain their consent, some of the contractual terms of the loans may be modified. We anticipate our assumptions of these loans to occur by December 15, 2011 and if we are unable to reach an agreement, the lenders under these mortgage loans could pursue the remedies specified in the loan documents in relation to the underlying GKK Properties, which could result in our losing part or all of these GKK Properties.
In addition to using our capital resources to meet our debt service obligations, for capital expenditures and for operating costs, we use our capital resources to make certain payments to our advisor and the dealer manager. We pay our advisor fees in connection with the management and disposition of our assets and for certain costs incurred by our advisor in providing services to us. We may also pay the dealer manager selling commissions of up to 3% of gross offering proceeds in connection with eligible sales under the dividend reinvestment plan and to the extent permitted under state securities laws. We will also continue to reimburse our advisor and the dealer manager for certain offering costs related to our dividend reinvestment plan.
As of September 30, 2011, we had $124.1 million of cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2011, our borrowings and other liabilities were approximately 82% and 85% of the cost (before depreciation or other noncash reserves) and book value (before depreciation) of our tangible assets, respectively. Our charter limits our total liabilities to 75% of the cost (before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves) of our tangible assets; however, we may exceed that limit if a majority of the conflicts committee approves each borrowing in excess of our charter limitation and we disclose such borrowing to our stockholders in our next quarterly report with an explanation from the conflicts committee of the justification for the excess borrowing. Due to the amount of debt that we have assumed or will assume (but which is consolidated in our financial statements as of September 30, 2011) as described above under “—Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan,” we exceeded our charter limitation on total liabilities during the third quarter of 2011. The conflicts committee has approved such borrowings. In each case, the conflicts committee determined that the excess leverage was justified for the following reasons:
| |
• | the assumption of debt is necessary as part of the Transfers of the GKK Properties; |
| |
• | the Transfers will allow us to operate the GKK Properties and generate ongoing income for our investors; and |
| |
• | the Transfers will allow us to develop an exit strategy for the GKK Properties, thus optimizing the return on investor capital. |

_____________________(1) Amounts include principal payments under notes payable and repurchase agreements based on maturity dates of debt obligations as of September 30, 2011.
(2) On September 1, 2011, in connection with the Transfer of the GKK Properties, we assumed five of the mortgage loans in the amount of $269.2 million and received Equity Interests in the owners of the properties securing the loans. As of September 30, 2011, we were in the process of negotiating with the lenders for their consent to assume the remainder of the mortgage loans in the amount of $1.2 billion. In order to obtain their consent, some of the contractual terms of the loans may be modified. We anticipate the assumptions of these loans to occur by December 15, 2011 and if we are unable to reach an agreement, the lenders under these mortgage loans could pursue the remedies specified in the loan documents in relation to the underlying GKK Properties, which could result in us losing part or all of these GKK Properties. All of the loans are included in our consolidated financial statements.
(3) Projected interest payments are based on the outstanding principal amounts and weighted-average interest rates as of September 30, 2011, adjusted for the impact of interest rate caps and swap agreements. We incurred interest expense of $43.9 million, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs totaling $5.7 million, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
(4) Represents the $1.6 million of outstanding advances from our advisor and $5.4 million of incurred but unpaid performance fees as of September 30, 2011. These amounts do not have a fixed payment date, but they may be repaid in any future year depending on our financial condition.
As of September 30, 2011, we had $600.1 million of debt obligations due during the remainder of 2011. Of that amount, $443.6 million relates to mortgage and mezzanine debt related to our consolidated investment in the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture maturing on December 31, 2011. We may, at our option, extend these loans to August 9, 2012, subject to certain terms in the loan agreements. Due to a decline in the operating performance of the portfolio resulting from increased vacancies, lower rental rates and tenant bankruptcies, in addition to declines in market value across all real estate types in the period following our initial investment in the National Industrial Portfolio, it is unlikely that we will be able to refinance or extend the mortgage and mezzanine loans secured by the National Industrial Portfolio upon their fully-extended maturities in August 2012. As a result, we may be forced to relinquish the assets to the lenders at some point prior to or concurrent with the final maturities in August 2012. In the event we relinquish the assets to the lenders, we would record a gain on extinguishment of the debt equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the debt at that time (currently $443.6 million, including the amount for noncontrolling interest of $88.7 million) and the carrying value of the collateral at that time (currently $318.7 million, including the amount for noncontrolling interest of $63.7 million). During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized $29.3 million of total revenues from the National Industrial Portfolio. During the same period, cash flows from operations from the National Industrial Portfolio were $5.8 million and cash used in investing activities were $4.0 million. We intend to pay the remaining $156.5 million of debt obligations due during the remainder of 2011 with proceeds from assets sales or refinancing.

Other Obligations
We have a contingent liability with respect to advances to us from our advisor in the amount of $1.6 million for the payment of distributions and to cover expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, in excess of our revenues. Pursuant to the advisory agreement, we are only obligated to reimburse our advisor for these advances if and to the extent that our cumulative Funds from Operations (as defined below) for the period commencing January 1, 2006 through the date of any such reimbursement exceed the lesser of (i) the cumulative amount of any distributions declared and payable to our stockholders as of the date of such reimbursement or (ii) an amount that is equal to a 7.0% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on invested capital for our stockholders for the period from July 18, 2006 through the date of such reimbursement. No interest accrues on the advance made by our advisor. The advisory agreement defines Funds from Operations as funds from operations as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts plus (i) any acquisition expenses and acquisition fees expensed by us and that are related to any property, loan or other investment acquired or expected to be acquired by us and (ii) any non-operating noncash charges incurred by us, such as impairments of property or loans, any other-than-temporary impairments of real estate securities, or other similar charges.
In addition to the advances to us from our advisor in the amount of $1.6 million, as of September 30, 2011, we had incurred but unpaid performance fees totaling $5.4 million related to our joint venture investment in the National Industrial Portfolio. The performance fee is earned by our advisor upon our meeting certain Funds from Operations thresholds and makes our advisor’s cumulative asset management fees related to our investment in the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture equal to 0.75% of the cost of the joint venture investment on an annualized basis from the date of our investment in the joint venture through the date of calculation. Our operations from the date of our investment through March 31, 2010 were sufficient to meet the Funds from Operations condition as defined in the advisory agreement. Beginning in April 2010, our operations did not meet the Funds from Operations condition as defined in the advisory agreement. Although performance fees of $5.4 million have been incurred as of September 30, 2011, the advisory agreement further provides that the payment of the performance fees shall only be made after the repayment of the advances from our advisor discussed above. The amount of cash available for distributions in future periods will be decreased by the repayment of the advance from our advisor and the payment of our advisor’s unpaid performance fees.
Results of Operations
Overview
As of September 30, 2010, we owned 64 real estate properties (including one industrial property held for sale), one master lease, 13 real estate loans receivable (six of which were impaired), two investments in securities directly or indirectly backed by commercial mortgage loans, and a preferred membership interest in a real estate joint venture. Also as of September 30, 2010, we owned a 10-story condominium building with 62 units acquired through foreclosure, of which 17 condominium units, two retail spaces and parking spaces were held for sale. Subsequent to September 30, 2010, we entered into the Settlement Agreement to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS, foreclosed on and sold one property underlying an impaired loan investment, wrote-off two real estate loans receivable and recorded an impairment charge against two additional real estate loans receivable. In addition, subsequent to September 30, 2010, we sold eight industrial properties, two office properties and designated one office property as held for sale. Accordingly, we classified these properties as discontinued operations for all periods presented in our consolidated financial statements. As a result, as of September 30, 2011, we owned 54 real estate properties (including one office property held for sale and excluding the GKK Properties), one master lease, nine real estate loans receivable, two investments in securities directly or indirectly backed by commercial mortgage loans, and a preferred membership interest in a real estate joint venture. Also, as of September 30, 2011, we owned a 10-story condominium building with 62 units acquired through foreclosure, of which four condominium units, two retail spaces and parking spaces were held for sale. In addition, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, on the Effective Date, KBS indirectly took title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, took a leasehold interest in, 317 of the GKK Properties and will take title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, will take a leasehold interest in, an additional 498 of the GKK Properties no later than December 15, 2011. Because the Settlement Agreement provides that KBS must accept the Transfer of all of the remaining Equity Interests that have not been transferred as of December 15, 2011, with the only requirement being the passage of time, and because for accounting purposes (although not for legal purposes), we are deemed to control the decisions that affect the economic outcome of all of the Equity Interests and all of the GKK Properties as of the Effective Date, we have consolidated in our financial statements as of the Effective Date all assets and liabilities assumed or to be assumed by us in connection with the Transfers of Equity Interests and the GKK Properties to be wholly owned, owned through the Citizens Bank Joint Venture or held through leasehold interests under the Settlement Agreement, including the related assumption of the Mortgage Pools and other liabilities related to the GKK Properties to be transferred. See the discussion of the Settlement Agreement under “— Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan.”

In addition, we have experienced a decline in the occupancy of our real estate properties, excluding the GKK Properties, from 80% as of September 30, 2010 to 77% as of September 30, 2011. The GKK Properties were 84% occupied as of September 30, 2011. Our results of operations were affected by these factors during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 as discussed below.

Rental income from our real estate properties increased by $15.2 million primarily due to an increase of $17.7 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, rental income income decreased by $2.5 million primarily due to a net decrease in amortization of below-market in-place leases, a decrease in lease termination fees and lower occupancy (as a result of tenants vacating or tenants reducing leased space) and lower rental rates for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Overall, we expect rental income to increase in future periods as a result of owning the GKK Properties for an entire period. Our rental income will also vary in large part based on the occupancy rates and rental rates of the properties in our portfolio. Excluding the GKK Properties, occupancy decreased from 80% at September 30, 2010 to 77% at September 30, 2011. While we would generally expect rental income to increase over the long-term, the current economic conditions could result in lower occupancy and/or rental rates and a corresponding decrease in rental income, especially in the short-term.
Tenant reimbursements from our real estate properties increased by $7.7 million primarily due to an increase of $8.4 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, tenant reimbursements decreased by $0.7 million primarily due to lower occupancy (as a result of tenants vacating or tenants reducing leased space), lower recovery of operating expenses during 2010 caused by the reset of tenant base years (as a result of new tenants and lease renewals) and lower reimbursable utility expenses and property taxes for certain properties. Overall, we expect tenant reimbursements to increase in future periods as a result of owning the GKK Properties for an entire period. Our tenant reimbursements will vary based on several factors, including the occupancy rate of the buildings, changes in base year terms, and changes in reimbursable operating expenses. While we generally expect tenant reimbursements to increase over the long‑term, the current economic conditions could result in lower occupancy rates and increased tenant turnover and lease renewals resulting in lower tenant reimbursements, especially in the short-term. Generally, as new leases are negotiated, the base year resets to operating expenses incurred in the year the lease is signed and the tenant generally only reimburses operating expenses to the extent and by the amount that its allocable share of the building’s operating expenses in future years increases from its base year. As a result, as new leases are executed, tenant reimbursements would generally decrease. Rental income may or may not change by amounts corresponding to changes in tenant reimbursements due to new leases.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
The $8.8 million decrease in interest income from loans receivable was primarily due to the following:
| |
• | A net decrease of $6.9 million related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan due to the failure of the GKK Borrower to meet its contractual interest payment obligation beginning in April 2011. On May 6, 2011, the GKK Mezzanine Loan matured without repayment by the GKK Borrower and on September 1, 2011, we, through KBS, entered into the Settlement Agreement with, among other parties, GKK Stars to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS in satisfaction of certain debt obligations owed by the GKK Borrower to KBS. See the discussion of the Settlement Agreement under “— Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan.” |
| |
• | A decrease of $1.3 million related to the 55 East Monroe Mezzanine Loan Origination, which was a result of the pay‑off of the loan on September 9, 2010. |
| |
• | A decrease of $0.1 million related to the foreclosure on the properties secured by the Artisan Multifamily Portfolio Mezzanine Loan by the first mortgage lender on January 21, 2011 and our write-off of this investment. |
| |
• | A decrease of $0.5 million related to the 11 South LaSalle Loan was a result of the maturity and default of the loan. |
Interest income from real estate loans receivable will decrease in future periods due to the maturity and default of the GKK Mezzanine Loan and subsequent entry into the Settlement Agreement and commencement of the Transfers, which when complete will reduce the outstanding balance of the GKK Mezzanine Loan to $0. Thus, we do not expect to receive any future contractual interest payments related to the GKK Loans. Interest income may also be affected by the potential impact of loans that may experience impairment issues in the future as a result of current or future market conditions. Assuming our real estate-related loans are fully extended under the terms of the respective loan agreements, and excluding our loan investments with asset-specific loan loss reserves, we do not have any investments maturing within a year from September 30, 2011.
If any of the borrowers under our loans receivable are unable to repay a loan at maturity or default on their loan, the impact to future interest income and loan recoveries may be significant and will depend on several factors unique to each individual loan. In general, if we have a first priority lien on the collateral securing a loan, we may agree to extend the loan at similar terms, modify the terms of the loan, or foreclose on the collateral. If we foreclose on the collateral, we may either operate the property, resulting in our receipt of any cash flows generated by the property or our payment of any cash shortfalls related to the property, or sell the property for whatever amount we are able to obtain, which may or may not be equal to the loan balance prior to foreclosure. In general, if we own a mezzanine loan or a B-Note and the borrower is unable to repay its loan at maturity, we may have more restrictions and fewer options regarding the resolution of our investment. In certain circumstances, the senior lenders, in conjunction with us, may be willing to grant the borrower extensions or may grant extensions in exchange for more favorable terms (such as higher interest rates, a partial payoff, or the entitlement to a portion of a junior lender’s interest income, etc.). If the senior lenders will not grant the borrower an extension, we, as the mezzanine lender, may foreclose on the ownership interests of the borrower and take legal title to the property subject to the existing senior loans or we may negotiate a discounted repayment. We could attempt to negotiate an extension or modification with the senior lenders as the new borrower; however, if the senior lenders were not willing to extend or modify the loans and we were not able to repay the senior loans, we would most likely relinquish our interests or rights in the investment to the holders of the senior loans. Actual outcomes may differ significantly from the above based on factors specific to individual loans and situations.
Property operating, maintenance, and management costs from our real estate properties increased by $10.1 million primarily due to an increase of $10.7 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, property operating, maintenance, and management costs decreased by $0.6 million due to a decrease in utility expenses as a result of lower occupancy, lower utility rates and conservation efforts. Overall, we expect property operating, maintenance, and management costs to increase in future periods as a result of owning the GKK Properties for an entire period.
Real estate taxes, property-related taxes, and insurance from our real estate properties increased by $2.2 million primarily due to an increase of $3.0 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, real estate taxes, property-related taxes, and insurance decreased by $0.8 million due to an adjustment in the property tax estimate for a property. Overall, we expect real estate taxes, property-related taxes, and insurance to increase in future periods as a result of owning the GKK Properties for an entire period.
The $0.2 million decrease in asset management fees was primarily due to the exclusion of certain impaired real estate loans receivable from our asset management fee calculation.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
General and administrative expenses increased by $13.9 million primarily due to an increase of $14.4 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, general and administrative expenses decreased by $0.5 million primarily related to lower legal and other professional fees, partially offset by an increase in fees and expenses related to the Tribeca Building and the restructuring of the National Industrial Portfolio mortgage and mezzanine loans. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of legal fees, audit fees, transfer agent fees, state and local income taxes and other professional fees.
Depreciation and amortization expense from our real estate properties increased by $6.4 million primarily due to an increase of $8.0 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $1.6 million primarily due to the decrease related to the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture and tenant origination and absorption costs fully amortized prior to or during the three months ended September 30, 2010. Overall, we expect depreciation and amortization expense to increase in future periods as a result of owning the GKK Properties for an entire period.
Interest expense from the financing of our portfolio increased by $7.9 million primarily due to an increase of $7.4 million related to debt secured by the GKK Properties. Excluding debt secured by the GKK Properties, interest expense increased by $0.5 million primarily due to a $1.7 million increase related to the amortization of loan fee extension costs of $8.5 million under the Amended Repurchase Agreements. Included in interest expense is the amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.5 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2011, respectively. Interest expense in future periods will vary based on fluctuations in one-month LIBOR, our level of future borrowings and our ability to refinance existing indebtedness at similar rates. We do not currently plan to acquire or originate more real estate or real estate‑related assets, and therefore, do not plan to enter into any purchase financing in the future. However, we will need to refinance our existing indebtedness in the future. Overall, we expect interest expense to increase in future periods as a result of debt secured by the GKK Properties.
During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized an impairment charge on real estate of $12.4 million with respect to three real estate properties held for investment. We did not recognize any impairment charge on real estate during the three months ended September 30, 2010.
The provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 decreased by $83,000 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded a decrease of $26,000 calculated on an asset-specific basis, which related to the Sandmar Mezzanine Loan. During the three months ended September 30, 2010, we recorded a provision for loan losses of $0.1 million, which consisted of an increase of $11.0 million to the provision for loan losses calculated on a portfolio-basis that was partially offset by a decrease of $10.9 million calculated on an asset-specific basis.
We recognized a gain of $58,000 and $0.3 million on the sales of foreclosed real estate held for sale during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we sold one condominium unit of the Tribeca Building and during the three months ended September 30, 2010, we sold three condominium units of the Tribeca Building.
We recognized $0.8 million and $2.0 million in income from an unconsolidated joint venture related to the Arden Portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. On July 8, 2011, the members of the HSC Partners Joint Venture entered into an amendment to its joint venture operating agreement to convert another lender’s $30.0 million of outstanding mezzanine debt to preferred membership interests. The HSC Partners Joint Venture also agreed that any cash flows from the joint venture after monthly debt service payments to existing mortgage and mezzanine lenders would be used to pay down principal. Accordingly, we do not expect to receive future income from our investment in the HSC Partners Joint Venture until the outstanding mortgage and mezzanine lenders are paid in full.
We recognized a gain on sale of real estate of $5.9 million related to the disposition of seven industrial properties and two office properties during the three months ended September 30, 2011. We did not dispose of any real estate during the three months ended September 30, 2010.
During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized an impairment charge on real estate of $1.0 million with respect to one office property that is classified as held for sale. We did not record an impairment charge on real estate held for sale during the three months ended September 30, 2010.

Rental income from our real estate properties increased by $8.7 million primarily due to an increase of $17.7 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, rental income decreased by $9.0 million primarily due to a decrease in lease termination fees and lower occupancy (as a result of tenants vacating or tenants reducing leased space) and lower rental rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, partially offset by a write-off of below-market rent for a tenant due to early renewal of the tenant’s lease. Overall, we expect rental income to increase in future periods as a result of owning the GKK Properties for an entire period. Our rental income will vary in large part based on the occupancy rates and rental rates of the properties in our portfolio. See “— Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2011 versus three months ended September 30, 2010.”
Tenant reimbursements from our real estate properties increased by $7.7 million primarily due to an increase of $8.4 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, tenant reimbursements decreased by $0.7 million due to lower occupancy (as a result of tenants vacating or tenants reducing leased space), lower recovery of operating expenses during 2010 caused by the reset of tenant base years (as a result of new tenants and lease renewals) and lower reimbursable utility expenses and property taxes for certain properties. Overall, we expect tenant reimbursements to increase in future periods as a result of owning the GKK Properties for an entire period.

The $21.2 million decrease in interest income from loans receivable was primarily due to the following:
| |
• | A net decrease of $13.6 million related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan due to the failure of the GKK Borrower to meet its contractual interest payment obligation beginning in April 2011. On May 6, 2011, the GKK Mezzanine Loan matured without repayment by the GKK Borrower and on September 1, 2011, we, through KBS, entered into the Settlement Agreement with, among other parties, GKK Stars, to effect the orderly transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the Gramercy real estate portfolio to KBS in satisfaction of certain debt obligations owed by the GKK Borrower to KBS.

• | A decrease of $4.6 million related to the 55 East Monroe Mezzanine Loan Origination, which was a result of the pay‑off of the loan on September 9, 2010. |
| |
• | A decrease of $0.8 million related to the foreclosure on the properties secured by the Artisan Multifamily Portfolio Mezzanine Loan by the first mortgage lender on January 21, 2011 and our write-off of this investment. |
| |
• | A decrease of $2.5 million related to the 11 South LaSalle Loan was a result of the maturity and default of the loan. |
Please see “Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2011 versus three months ended September 30, 2010” above for a discussion of interest income from real estate loans receivable in future periods and the impact of fluctuations in LIBOR on our interest income and a discussion of the impact to us if any of the borrowers under our loans receivable default on their loans.
Property operating, maintenance, and management costs from our real estate properties increased by $12.4 million primarily due to an increase of $10.7 million related to the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, property operating, maintenance, and management costs increased by $1.7 million due to an increase of $0.5 million in bad debt expense related to rental revenues and $0.8 million of bad debt expense related to an interest receivable write-off related to the 11 South LaSalle Loan and as well as an increase of $0.4 million in utilities and other operating expenses related to our real estate portfolio. Overall, we expect property operating, maintenance, and management costs to increase in future periods as a result of owning the GKK Properties for an entire period.
Real estate taxes, property-related taxes, and insurance from our real estate properties increased by $2.3 million primarily due to an increase of $3.0 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, real estate taxes, property-related taxes, and insurance decreased by $0.7 million due to an adjustment in the property tax estimate for a tenant. Overall, we expect real estate taxes, property-related taxes, and insurance to increase in future periods as a result of owning the GKK Properties for an entire period.
The $1.0 million decrease in asset management fees was primarily due to the the exclusion of certain impaired real estate loans receivable from our asset management fee calculation. In addition, beginning in April 2010, asset management fees related to the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture decreased because we failed to meet certain Funds from Operations (as defined in the advisory agreement) thresholds required for our advisor to earn the performance fee.
General and administrative expenses increased by $15.2 million primarily due to an increase of $14.4 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.8 million primarily related to higher legal and professional fees and expenses related to the Tribeca Building and the restructuring of the National Industrial Portfolio mortgage and mezzanine loans. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of legal fees, audit fees, transfer agent fees, state and local income taxes and other professional fees.
Depreciation and amortization expense from our real estate properties increased by $28,000 primarily due to an increase of $8.0 million related to the Transfer of the GKK Properties. Excluding the GKK Properties, depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $8.0 million primarily due to the decrease related to the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture and tenant and absorption costs fully amortized prior to or during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recorded an impairment charge with respect to 17 properties within the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture to reduce the carrying value of these properties to their estimated fair values, and at that time, we reduced the amount of ongoing depreciation and amortization expense recognized, based on the adjusted carrying value of these properties. In addition, the decrease in depreciation and amortization also relates to the disposition of two real estate properties during the second and fourth quarters of 2010 and nine real estate properties in the second quarter of 2011. Overall, we expect depreciation and amortization expense to increase in future periods as a result of owning the GKK Properties for an entire period.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Interest expense from the financing of our portfolio increased by $10.8 million primarily due to an increase of $7.4 million related to debt secured by the GKK Properties. Excluding debt secured by the GKK Properties, interest expense increased by $3.4 million primarily due to a $3.7 million increase related to the amortization of loan fee extension costs of $8.5 million under the Amended Repurchase Agreements. Included in interest expense is the amortization of deferred financing costs of $1.7 million and $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2011, respectively. Interest expense in future periods will vary based on fluctuations in one-month LIBOR, our level of future borrowings and our ability to refinance existing indebtedness at similar rates. We do not currently plan to acquire or originate more real estate or real estate-related assets, and therefore, do not plan to enter into any purchase financing in the future. However, we will need to refinance our existing indebtedness in the future. Overall, we expect interest expense to increase in future periods as a result of debt secured by the GKK Properties for an entire period.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized an impairment charge on real estate of $123.5 million with respect to 17 properties within the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture. We hold an 80% membership interest in the joint venture and consolidate the joint venture in our financial statements. This joint venture owns 23 industrial properties and holds a master lease with respect to another industrial property. As a result of revising our cash flow projections and holding period for the National Industrial Portfolio joint venture, we determined that the estimated undiscounted cash flows during the revised holding period (including proceeds from the disposal of the investment) were not sufficient to recover the carrying value of several of the properties in the National Industrial Portfolio; therefore, we recognized an impairment charge of $123.5 million with respect to 17 properties within the National Industrial Portfolio to reduce the carrying value of these properties to their estimated fair values. Due to a decline in the operating performance of the portfolio resulting from increased vacancies, lower rental rates and tenant bankruptcies, in addition to declines in market value across all real estate types in the period following our initial investment in the National Industrial Portfolio, it is unlikely that we will be able to refinance or extend the mortgage and mezzanine loans secured by the National Industrial Portfolio upon their fully-extended maturities in August 2012. As a result, we may be forced to relinquish the assets to the lenders at some point prior to or concurrent with the final maturities in August 2012. In the event we relinquish the assets to the lenders, we would record a gain on extinguishment of the debt equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the debt at that time (currently $443.6 million, including the amount for noncontrolling interest of $88.7 million) and the carrying value of the collateral at that time (currently $318.7 million, including the amount for noncontrolling interest of $63.7 million). We recognized an impairment charge on real estate of $12.4 million with respect to three real estate properties held for investment during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 decreased by $7.5 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded an overall reduction in provision for loan losses of $3.8 million, which consisted of a decrease of $18.1 million to the provision for loan losses calculated on a portfolio-basis and partially offset by an increase of $14.3 million calculated on an asset-specific basis. The asset-specific reserves primarily relate to the 11 South LaSalle Loan and the Park Central Mezzanine Loan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recorded a provision for loan losses of $3.7 million, which consisted of an increase of $9.6 million to the asset-specific loan loss reserves, offset by a reduction of $5.9 million calculated on a portfolio-basis.
We recognized a gain of $0.1 million and $1.8 million on the sales of foreclosed real estate held for sale during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, as a result of selling seven and ten condominium units of the Tribeca Building, respectively.
We recognized $5.0 million and $5.8 million in income from an unconsolidated joint venture related to the Arden Portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. We do not expect to receive further income from this investment. See “— Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2011 versus three months ended September 30, 2010.”
We recognized a gain on sale of real estate of $5.9 million related to the disposition of seven industrial properties and two office properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized a gain on sale of real estate of $2.1 million related to the disposition of the 18301 Von Karman Building on June 30, 2010.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized an impairment charge on real estate of $23.8 million with respect to six industrial properties and one office property that were disposed of and one office property that is classified as held for sale. We did not record an impairment charge on real estate held for sale during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations
We believe that funds from operations (“FFO”) is a beneficial indicator of the performance of an equity REIT. 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 among other REITs. In addition, in connection with NAREIT's recent Accounting and Financial Standards Hot Topics, we are excluding impairment charges on real estate assets in our calculation of FFO as of September 30, 2011. We have also restated FFO from prior periods to exclude these impairment charges. NAREIT believes that impairment charges on real estate assets are often early recognition of losses on prospective sales of properties, and therefore, the exclusion of these impairments is consistent with the exclusion of gains and losses recognized from the sales of real estate. Although these losses are included in the calculation of net income (loss), we have excluded these impairment charges in our calculation of FFO because impairments do not impact the current operating performance of our investments, and may or may not provide an indication of future operating performance.
Our management believes that historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. As a result, we believe that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities. We compute FFO in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust (“NAREIT”) definition. Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to other REITs that do not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.
Changes in accounting rules have resulted in a substantial increase in the number of non-operating and non-cash items included in the calculation of FFO. As a result, our management also uses modified funds from operations (“MFFO”) as an indicator of our ongoing performance as well as our dividend sustainability. We believe that MFFO is helpful as a measure of ongoing operating performance because it excludes non-operating items included in FFO and MFFO also excludes non-cash items such as straight-line rental revenue. Additionally, we believe that MFFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance indicators and analysis used by management, in addition to net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, to evaluate the sustainability of our operating performance. MFFO excludes from FFO: acquisition fees and expenses; adjustments related to contingent purchase price obligations; amounts relating to straight-line rents and amortization of above and below market intangible lease assets and liabilities; accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; amortization of closing costs; impairments of real estate-related investments; mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; and gains or losses included in net income for the extinguishment or sale of debt or hedges. We compute MFFO in accordance with the definition of MFFO included in the practice guideline issued by the Investment Program Association (“IPA”) in November 2010. Our computation of MFFO may not be comparable to other REITs that do not compute MFFO in accordance with the current IPA definition or that interpret the current IPA definition differently than we do.
FFO and MFFO are non-GAAP financial measures and do not represent net income as defined by GAAP. Net income as defined by GAAP is the most relevant measure in determining our operating performance because FFO and MFFO include adjustments that investors may deem subjective, such as adding back expenses such as depreciation and amortization and the other items described above. Accordingly, FFO and MFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indicator of our current and historical operating performance. In addition, MFFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an indication of our liquidity. We believe FFO and MFFO, in addition to net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, are meaningful supplemental performance measures and are useful in understanding how our management evaluates our ongoing operating performance.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Although MFFO includes other adjustments, the exclusion of impairment charges related to our real estate related investments and the exclusion of straight-line rent are the most significant adjustments to us at the present time. We have excluded these items based on the following economic considerations:
| |
• | Impairment charge on real estate loans receivable. An impairment charge on real estate loans receivable represents a write-down of the carrying value of a real estate loan to reflect the current valuation of the asset, whether or not the asset is intended to be held long-term. Although these losses are included in the calculation of net income (loss), we have excluded these impairment charges in our calculation of MFFO because impairments do not impact the current operating performance of our investments, and may or may not provide an indication of future operating performance. We believe it is useful to investors to have a supplemental metric that addresses core operating performance directly and therefore excludes such things as impairment charges on real estate loans receivable; and |
| |
• | Adjustments for straight-line rent. These are adjustments to rental revenue as required by GAAP to recognize contractual lease payments on a straight-line basis over the life of the respective lease. We have excluded these adjustments in our calculation of MFFO to more appropriately reflect the current economic impact of our in-place leases, also providing investors with a useful supplemental metric that addresses core operating performance by removing rent we hope to receive in a future period or rent that was received in a prior period. |
Our calculation of FFO and MFFO is presented in the table below for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively (in thousands). No conclusions or comparisons should be made from the presentation of these periods.

_____________________(1) Distributions for the period from January 1, 2011 through September 30, 2011 are based on daily record dates and are calculated at a rate of $0.00143836 per share per day.
(2) Assumes share was issued and outstanding each day during the period presented.
(3) Distributions are paid on a monthly basis. Distributions for all record dates of a given month are paid approximately 15 days following month-end.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we paid aggregate distributions of $73.7 million, including $38.8 million of distributions paid in cash and $34.9 million of distributions reinvested through our dividend reinvestment plan. We funded our total distributions paid, which includes net cash distributions and dividends reinvested by stockholders, with $42.8 million of current period cash flows from operations and $30.9 million of a combination of operating cash reserves from prior periods, proceeds from the sale of properties in 2011 and 2010 and proceeds from debt financing. FFO for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $31.1 million. For purposes of determining the sources of our distributions paid, we assume first that we use cash flow from operations from the relevant periods to fund distribution payments. See the reconciliation of FFO to net loss above.
Generally, we pay, and in the future expect to pay, distributions from our cash flow from operations. On April 28, 2011, in connection with the execution of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, we agreed that during the term of the Amended Repurchase Agreements and except for distributions to stockholders necessary to maintain our REIT status, we would limit distributions to stockholders to an amount not to exceed $6 million per month, excluding any distributions to stockholders reinvested in our dividend reinvestment plan (currently, distributions are less than $5.0 million per month, excluding distributions reinvested pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan). See “Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan — Repurchase Agreements” above.
In order that our stockholders could begin earning cash distributions, KBS Capital Advisors agreed to advance funds to us equal to the amount by which the cumulative amount of distributions declared by our board of directors from January 1, 2006 through the period ending August 31, 2010 exceeded the amount of our Funds from Operations (as defined in our advisory agreement) for the same period. We are only obligated to reimburse our advisor for these expenses if and to the extent that our cumulative Funds from Operations for the period commencing January 1, 2006 through the date of any such reimbursement exceed the lesser of (i) the cumulative amount of any distributions declared and payable to our stockholders as of the date of such reimbursement or (ii) an amount that is equal to a 7.0% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on invested capital for our stockholders for the period from July 18, 2006 through the date of such reimbursement. No interest will accrue on the advance made by our advisor. The advisory agreement defines Funds from Operations as funds from operations as defined by NAREIT plus (i) any acquisition expenses and acquisition fees expensed by us and that are related to any property, loan or other investment acquired or expected to be acquired by us and (ii) any non-operating noncash charges incurred by us, such as impairments of property or loans, any other-than-temporary impairments of marketable securities, or other similar charges. Through September 30, 2011, our advisor had advanced an aggregate of $1.6 million to us for cash distributions and expenses in excess of revenues, all of which is outstanding. No amount has been advanced since January 2007. We agreed with our advisor that our advisor would not extend the agreement to advance funds for distribution record dates after August 31, 2010.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
During the past year, our portfolio has experienced increasing pressure from declines in cash flow from a number of our investments. There have been several significant factors responsible for the changes in cash flow. A decline in the occupancy of our portfolio and increases in rental concessions given to retain tenants, which is important to the continued success of our portfolio, have resulted in lower current cash flow. Tenant specific issues, including bankruptcy and down-sizing, have placed downward pressure on our operating cash flow. Projected future declines in rental rates, slower or potentially negative net absorption of leased space and expectations of future rental concessions, including three or more months of free rent to retain tenants who are up for renewal or to sign new tenants, are expected to result in additional decreases in cash flow. Historically low LIBOR, which is used to calculate the interest due to us on certain of our debt investments, has resulted in a reduction in interest income we earn on those investments. LIBOR has fallen from a high of approximately 5.8% during 2007 to 0.2% as of September 30, 2011. The decrease in interest earned on our variable rate debt investments is offset by the decrease in interest expense incurred on our variable rate notes payable and repurchase agreements. In addition, financial difficulties of borrowers under loans we own, lower rental and occupancy rates at the properties securing loans, the expiration of interest rate floor agreements related to certain debt investments and slower sales and lower prices for condo units related to loans on which we have now foreclosed have caused cash flows to decline and/or may result in additional declines. These factors could result in decreases in distributions in future periods to preserve capital necessary to maintain our investment portfolio.
Our operating performance cannot be accurately predicted and may deteriorate in the future due to numerous factors, including those discussed under “Forward-Looking Statements,” “— Market Outlook — Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets,” and “ — Results of Operations” herein and under “Risk Factors” in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 9, 2011. Those factors include: the future operating performance of our investments in the existing real estate and financial environment; the success and economic viability of our tenants; the ability of our borrowers and their sponsors to continue to make their debt service payments and/or to repay their loans upon maturity; our ability to refinance existing indebtedness at comparable terms; changes in interest rates on our variable rate debt obligations or loans receivable; our ability to successfully operate and sell the GKK Properties transferred or to be transferred to us under the Settlement Agreement given current economic conditions and the concentration of the GKK Properties in the financial services sector; the significant debt obligations we have assumed or will assume with respect to the GKK Properties; our advisor’s limited experience operating and selling bank branch properties; and the level of participation in our dividend reinvestment plan. In the event our cash flow from operations and/or FFO decrease in the future, the level of our distributions may also decrease. In addition, future distributions declared and paid may exceed FFO and/or cash flow from operations.
Estimated Value per Share
On December 2, 2010, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $7.32 based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2010. We provided this estimated value per share to assist broker-dealers that participated in our initial public offering in meeting their customer account statement reporting obligations under the National Association of Securities Dealers Conduct Rule 2340 (c)(2) as required by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). The estimated value per share was based upon the recommendation and valuation of our advisor.
FINRA rules provide no guidance on the methodology an issuer must use to determine its estimated value per share. As with any valuation methodology, our methodology is based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete. Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated value per share, and these differences could be significant. The estimated value per share is not audited and does not represent the fair value of our assets or liabilities according to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We can make no claim whether the estimated value per share and the methodology used to derive our value per share would or would not be acceptable to FINRA or for compliance with ERISA reporting requirements. For a full description of the methodologies used to value our assets and liabilities in connection with the calculation of the estimated value per share, see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 10, 2010.
Accordingly, with respect to the estimated value per share, we can give no assurance that:
| |
• | a stockholder would be able to resell his or her shares at this estimated value; |
| |
• | a stockholder would ultimately realize distributions per share equal to our estimated value per share upon liquidation of our assets and settlement of our liabilities or a sale of us; |
| |
• | our shares of common stock would trade at the estimated value per share on a national securities exchange; or |
| |
• | an independent third-party appraiser or other third-party valuation firm would agree with our estimated value per share. |
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Further, the value of our shares will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to individual assets in our portfolio and in response to fluctuations in the real estate and finance markets. As such, the estimated value per share does not take into account developments in our portfolio since December 2, 2010, including:
| |
• | asset sales and potential future asset sales at values different from those determined in our valuation as well as any impairment charges related to these or other assets as a result of changes in the expected hold period or the estimated cash flows for these assets; |
| |
• | impairment charges related to real estate-related investments; |
| |
• | the restructuring of our debt, including the restructuring of the Amended Repurchase Agreements in relation to the Settlement Agreement; and |
| |
• | the assets and liabilities we assumed or will assume in connection with the Transfers of Equity Interests and the GKK Properties under the Settlement Agreement and the related assumption of the Mortgage Pools and other liabilities related to the GKK Properties. |
On the Effective Date, we indirectly took title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, took a leasehold interest in, 317 of the GKK Properties and will take title to or, with respect to a limited number of GKK Properties, will take a leasehold interest in, an additional 498 GKK Properties no later than December 15, 2011. Upon the completion of the Transfers of the Equity Interests to us, or shortly thereafter, we will make determinations about which assets we wish to sell and commence the disposition process. We expect to complete the disposition of some assets by the first quarter of 2012. Accordingly, we intend to update the estimated value per share of our common stock no later than March of 2012 in order to allow time to incorporate updated information obtained during the Transfers of the GKK Properties and additional market information obtained from the initial dispositions of GKK Properties in order to have the most accurate and current information in calculating the estimated value per share. Until such time, the purchase price of shares under the dividend reinvestment plan will be $7.32, and the redemption price for shares eligible for redemption under the share redemption program will be $7.32.
During the term of the Amended Repurchase Agreements, we agreed to continue to limit redemptions under our share redemption program to those redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined in the share redemption program). Moreover, we do not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future except potentially from funds generated from asset sales.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of our financial statements requires significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. A discussion of the accounting policies that management considers critical in that they involve significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC. There have been no significant changes to our policies during 2011.
Subsequent Events
We evaluate subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.
Distributions Paid
On October 14, 2011, we paid distributions of $8.2 million, which related to distribution record dates for each day in the period from September 1, 2011 through September 30, 2011.
Distributions Declared
On September 28, 2011, our board of directors declared distributions based on daily record dates for the period from October 1, 2011 through October 31, 2011, which we expect to pay in November 2011, and on October 28, 2011, our board of directors declared distributions based on daily record dates for the period from November 1, 2011 through November 30, 2011, which we expect to pay in December 2011. Investors may choose to receive cash distributions or purchase additional shares through our dividend reinvestment plan.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Distributions for these periods will be calculated based on stockholders of record each day during these periods at a rate of $0.00143836 per share per day and if paid each day for a 365-day period, would equal a 5.25% annualized rate based on a purchase price of $10.00 per share or a 7.17% annualized rate based on shares purchased under our dividend reinvestment plan at the current price per share of $7.32.
Financings Subsequent to September 30, 2011
South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loan
On October 25, 2011, we, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a mortgage loan with an unaffiliated lender, for $27.5 million secured by South Towne Corporate Center I and II (the “South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loan”). The South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loan matures on November 1, 2015, with an option to extend the maturity date to November 1, 2016, subject to certain conditions contained in the loan agreement. The South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loan bears interest at a variable rate of 200 basis points over one-month LIBOR. Monthly payments on the South Towne Corporate Center I and II Mortgage Loan are interest-only, with the entire principal amount, plus any outstanding interest and fees, due at maturity.
Pay-off of the Sabal IV Mortgage Loan and Addition to the Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan Facility
On March 5, 2007, in connection with the acquisition of the Sabal IV Building, we, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a mortgage loan with an unaffiliated lender for $11.0 million secured by the Sabal IV Building (the “Sabal IV Mortgage Loan”). The Sabal IV Mortgage Loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 5.14% per annum for the first two years and 5.84% thereafter and matured on October 1, 2011. On October 3, 2011, we paid off the entire principal balance outstanding and accrued interest in the amount of $11.1 million.
On July 9, 2008, certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a secured four-year mortgage loan agreement with an unaffiliated lender providing for a mortgage loan facility in the maximum principal amount of $158.7 million (the “Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan Facility”), subject to certain borrowing limitations, secured by various real estate properties owned by these wholly owned subsidiaries. The determination of the maximum principal amount of the Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan Facility was based on a percentage of the appraised value of the properties in the portfolio that secure the loan. The maturity date of the loan is July 9, 2012, with two one-year extension options subject to certain conditions. On October 27, 2011, the Sabal IV Building was added to the Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan Facility and an additional $7.5 million was funded to us. The Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan, including the additional $7.5 million secured by the Sabal IV Building, bears interest at a floating rate of 220 basis points over one-month LIBOR. Because of the prior removal from the portfolio of some of the real estate properties that secured the Portfolio Secured Mortgage Loan, as of October 27, 2011, and after the funding of the additional $7.5 million, the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the loan is $107.9 million, which is the maximum amount that may be drawn under the loan.
Citizens Bank Joint Venture
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, we will receive the Equity Interests in the entity which owns a 99% interest in the Citizens Bank Joint Venture prior to December 15, 2011. On October 24, 2011, the member of the Citizens Bank Joint Venture that holds the 1% interest assigned its entire interest in the joint venture to the 99% interest holder. As a result of the assignment, we are deemed to have control of the Citizens Bank Joint Venture and will consolidate the Citizens Bank Joint Venture as of the assignment date. As of September 30, 2011, the estimated fair value of both the real estate and mortgage debt was approximately $61.6 million.
San Antonio Business Park Mortgage Loan
On March 28, 2008, we, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, purchased a first mortgage loan secured by the San Antonio Business Park (the “San Antonio Business Park Mortgage Loan”) from an unaffiliated seller. The San Antonio Business Park consists of two office-flex properties containing 411,959 square feet in San Antonio, Texas. On October 14, 2011, we entered into a mortgage loan sale agreement to sell the San Antonio Business Park Mortgage Loan to an unaffiliated buyer for $22.0 million. In addition, we have a subordinated participation interest in the loan, whereby the buyer will receive 100% of cash flows from the loan until such time as its $22.0 million investment has been repaid in full plus any accrued interest and expenses incurred by the buyer. We would receive any remaining cash flows thereafter. As of September 30, 2011, we have not recorded any loan loss reserve related to this loan as the fair value of the future cash flows we anticipate to receive related to this loan exceeds the book value of the loan. As of September 30, 2011, the book value of the loan was $25.7 million.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes as a result of borrowings used to maintain liquidity and to fund the refinancing of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. We are also exposed to the effects of changes in interest rates as a result of our investment in mortgage, mezzanine, bridge and other loans and the acquisition of real estate securities. Our profitability and the value of our investment portfolio may be adversely affected during any period as a result of interest rate changes. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. We have managed and will continue to manage interest rate risk by maintaining a ratio of fixed rate, long-term debt such that floating rate exposure is kept at an acceptable level. In addition, we utilize a variety of financial instruments, including interest rate caps, floors, and swap agreements, in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our operations. When we use these types of derivatives to hedge the risk of interest‑earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, we may be subject to certain risks, including the risk that losses on a hedge position will reduce the funds available for payments to holders of our common stock and that the losses may exceed the amount we invested in the instruments.
We borrow funds and made investments at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows on our fixed rate debt or fixed rate real estate loans receivable unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated. However, interest rate changes will affect the fair value of our fixed rate instruments. At September 30, 2011, the fair value and book value of our fixed rate real estate loans receivable were $87.6 million and $85.6 million, respectively. The fair value estimate of our real estate loans receivable is estimated using an internal valuation model that considers the expected cash flows for the loans, underlying collateral values (for collateral‑dependent loans) and the estimated yield requirements of institutional investors for loans with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. At September 30, 2011, the fair value of our fixed rate debt was $1.5 billion and the carrying value of our fixed rate debt was $1.5 billion. The fair value estimate of our fixed rate debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing rates we would expect to pay for debt of a similar type and remaining maturity if the loans were originated at September 30, 2011. As we expect to hold our fixed rate instruments to maturity and the amounts due under such instruments would be limited to the outstanding principal balance and any accrued and unpaid interest, we do not expect that fluctuations in interest rates, and the resulting changes in fair value of our fixed rate instruments, would have a significant impact on our operations.
Conversely, movements in interest rates on variable rate debt and loans receivable would change our future earnings and cash flows, but would not significantly affect the fair value of those instruments. However, changes in required risk premiums would result in changes in the fair value of floating rate instruments. At September 30, 2011, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $1.2 billion of our $1.3 billion of variable rate debt outstanding, after giving consideration to the impact of interest rate swap agreements on approximately $85.4 million of our variable rate debt. Based on interest rates as of September 30, 2011, if interest rates are 100 basis points higher during the 12 months ending September 30, 2012, interest expense on our variable rate debt outstanding would increase by approximately $11.6 million and if interest rates were 100 basis points lower during the 12 months ending September 30, 2012, interest expense on our variable rate debt outstanding would decrease by $2.4 million. Excluding real estate loans receivable with asset-specific loan loss reserves, at September 30, 2011, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $15.0 million of variable rate loans receivable. Based on interest rates as of September 30, 2011, if interest rates are 100 basis points higher during the 12 months ending September 30, 2012, interest income would be increased by approximately $0.1 million, and if interest rates were 100 basis points lower during the 12 months ending September 30, 2012, interest income would be decreased by approximately $36,000.
The weighted-average annual effective interest rates of our fixed rate real estate loans receivable and variable rate real estate loans receivable at September 30, 2011 were 4.0% and 4.5%, respectively. The weighted-average annual effective interest rate represents the effective interest rate at September 30, 2011, using the interest method that we use to recognize interest income on our real estate loans receivable without asset-specific loan loss reserves. The weighted-average interest rates of our fixed rate debt and variable rate debt at September 30, 2011 were 5.7% and 2.7%, respectively. The weighted-average interest rate represents the actual interest rate in effect at September 30, 2011 (consisting of the contractual interest rate and the effect of interest rate caps, floors and swaps), using interest rate indices as of September 30, 2011, where applicable.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As discussed under “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations –Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan,” on September 1, 2011, we, through KBS, entered into the Settlement Agreement whereby we, through KBS, have received or will receive, through the Transfers of the Equity Interests in certain subsidiaries of Gramercy, either fee simple title or leasehold interests (as appropriate) in the GKK Properties no later than December 15, 2011. We have consolidated in our financial statements as of September 1, 2011, all assets and liabilities to be assumed by us in connection with the Transfers of the Equity Interests and the GKK Properties under the Settlement Agreement (the “GKK Transaction”), including the related assumption of the mortgages on the GKK Properties and other liabilities related to the GKK Properties. As of September 30, 2011, the GKK Properties represented 57% of our total assets and 57% of our total investments in real estate. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the GKK properties provided 16% of the our revenues and 29% of our net loss.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon, and as of the date of, the evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, except with respect to the GKK Transaction and other Gramercy controls related to the GKK Properties for which we have not completed documentation, evaluation and testing of internal controls over financial reporting, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
We adopted certain new accounting policies and accounting systems as a result of the GKK Transaction. We continue to evaluate additional processes and other components of internal control over financial reporting resulting from the GKK Transaction, including Gramercy’s historical internal control over financial reporting and its integration into our internal control over financial reporting. We excluded the GKK Transaction and other Gramercy controls related to the GKK Properties from our assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A.Risk Factors
Please see the risks discussed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 9, 2011.
Item 2.Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
| |
a) | During the period covered by this Form 10-Q, we did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933. |
| |
c) | We have adopted a share redemption program that may enable stockholders to sell their shares to us in limited circumstances. |
Pursuant to the share redemption program, as amended to date, there are several limitations on our ability to redeem shares:
| |
• | Unless the shares are being redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined under the share redemption program), we may not redeem shares until the stockholder has held the shares for one year. |
| |
• | During each calendar year, redemptions are limited to the amount of net proceeds from the issuance of shares under the dividend reinvestment plan during the prior calendar year less amounts we deem necessary from such proceeds to fund current and future: capital expenditures, tenant improvement costs and leasing costs related to our investments in real estate properties; reserves required by financings of our investments in real estate properties; and funding obligations under our real estate loans receivable, as each may be adjusted from time to time by management, provided that if the shares are submitted for redemption in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence”, we will honor such redemptions to the extent that all redemptions for the calendar year are less than the amount of the net proceeds from the issuance of shares under the dividend reinvestment plan during the prior calendar year. |
| |
• | During any calendar year, we may redeem no more than 5% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year. |
| |
• | We have no obligation to redeem shares if the redemption would violate the restrictions on distributions under Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency. |
The only redemptions we made under the share redemption program during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were those that qualified as, and met the requirements for, special redemptions under our share redemption program, i.e., all redemptions under the plan were made in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence.” For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we fulfilled all redemption requests that qualified as special redemptions under the share redemption program. On December 10, 2010, we announced that based on our 2011 budgeted expenditures, and except with respect to redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” and “determination of incompetence,” we do not currently expect to have funds available for redemption under the share redemption program in 2011. On April 28, 2011, in connection with the amendment and restatement of the repurchase agreements related to our investment in the GKK Mezzanine Loan, we agreed that during the term of the Amended Repurchase Agreements we would continue to limit redemptions under our share redemption program to those sought upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence.” The Amended Repurchase Agreements will terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) April 28, 2013; (ii) the date that the Amended Repurchase Agreements convert into a mezzanine loan (which would likely contain substantially similar terms as the Amended Repurchase Agreements, including with respect to our share redemption program restrictions); (iii) the date that all obligations under the Amended Repurchase Agreements are fully paid; or (iv) upon an event causing the Amended Repurchase Agreements to otherwise terminate. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Collateral Transfer and Settlement Agreement Related to the GKK Mezzanine Loan — Repurchase Agreements” above. Moreover, we do not expect to have funds available for ordinary redemptions in the future except potentially from funds generated from asset sales.

_____________________(1) We announced commencement of the program on April 6, 2006 and amendments to the program on August 16, 2006 (which amendment became effective on December 14, 2006), August 1, 2007 (which amendment became effective on September 13, 2007), August 14, 2008 (which amendment became effective on September 13, 2008), March 26, 2009 (which amendment became effective on April 26, 2009) and May 13, 2009 (which amendment became effective on June 12, 2009).
(2) In accordance with our share redemption program, the redemption price for all stockholders is equal to the estimated value per share. On December 2, 2010, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $7.32 based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2010. Effective for the December 2010 redemption date and until the estimated value per share is updated, the redemption price for all stockholders whose shares are eligible for redemption is $7.32 per share. We currently expect to update our estimated value per share no later than March of 2012. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Estimated Value per Share” above.
(3) We limit the dollar value of shares that may be redeemed under the program as described above.
Item 3.Defaults upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4.(Removed and Reserved)
Item 5.Other Information
On November 8, 2011, we renewed the advisory agreement with KBS Capital Advisors LLC.

The terms of the renewed advisory agreement are identical to those of the advisory agreement that was previously in effect.
