STRATEGIC REALTY TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2014March 31, 2015

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

 

Strategic Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on September 18, 2008, as a Maryland corporation. Effective August 22, 2013, the Company changed its name from TNP Strategic Retail Trust, Inc. to Strategic Realty Trust, Inc. The Company believes it qualifies as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), and has elected REIT status beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2009, the year in which the Company began material operations. The Company was initially capitalized by the sale of shares of common stock to Thompson National Properties, LLC (“TNP LLC”) on October 16, 2008.

 

On November 4, 2008, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to offer a maximum of 100,000,000$1,000,000,000 in shares of its common stock to the public in its primary offering at $10.00 per share and 10,526,316$100,000,000 in shares of its common stock to the Company’s stockholders at $9.50 per share pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) (collectively, the “Offering”). On August 7, 2009, the SEC declared the registration statement effective and the Company commenced the Offering. On February 7, 2013, the Company terminated the Offering and ceased offering shares of common stock in the primary offering and under the DRIP. As of the termination of the Offering on February 7, 2013 and as of September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, the Company had accepted subscriptions for, and issued, 10,969,714 shares of common stock (net of share redemptions), including 391,182 shares of common stock pursuant to the DRIP, resulting in gross offering proceeds of $108,357,000.

 

On June 15, 2012, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to register up to $900,000,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock in a follow-on public offering. The Company subsequently determined not to proceed with the follow-on public offering and on March 1, 2013, the Company requested that the SEC withdraw the registration statement for the follow-on public offering, effective immediately. As a result of the termination of the Offering and the withdrawal of the registration statement for the Company’s follow-on public offering, offering proceeds are not currently available to fund the Company’s cash needs, and will not be available untilunless the Company elects to, and is able to successfully engage in ananother offering of its securities.

 

On August 7, 2013,Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through Strategic Realty Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “OP”). As the Company allowedaccepted subscriptions for shares of its existing advisory agreement (the “Prior Advisory Agreement”) withcommon stock, it transferred substantially all of the Company’s prior advisor, TNP Strategic Retail Advisor, LLC (the “Prior Advisor”),net proceeds of the Offering to expire without renewal. On August 10, 2013,the OP as a capital contribution. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company entered into a new advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) withowned 96.2% of the limited partnership interest in the OP.

The Company is managed by SRT Advisor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Advisor”). On July 15, 2014, the Advisory Agreementadvisory agreement with the Advisor (the “Advisory Agreement”) was renewed for an additional twelve months, beginning on August 10, 2014. Advisor manages the Company’s business as the Company’s external advisor pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. Advisor is an affiliate of Glenborough, LLC (together with its affiliates, “Glenborough”), a privately held full-service real estate investment and management company focused on the acquisition, management and leasing of commercial properties.

 

Beginning in December 2012 and ending August 10, 2013, Glenborough performed certain services for the Company pursuant to a Consulting Agreement (“Consulting Agreement”), which Consulting Agreement was cancelled when Glenborough became the Company’s Advisor.  The Company entered into the Consulting Agreement to assist it through the process of transitioning to a new external advisor as well as to provide other services. Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, from December 2012 through April 2013, the Company agreed to pay Glenborough a monthly consulting fee of $75,000 and reimburse Glenborough for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. Effective May 1, 2013, the Company amended the Consulting Agreement to expand the services to include accounting provided to it by Glenborough and increased the monthly consulting fee payable to Glenborough to $90,000. On August 10, 2013, in connection with the execution of the Advisory Agreement with its advisor, Glenborough rebated $150,000 of consulting fees to the Company.

Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through Strategic Realty Operating Partnership, L.P. (formerly TNP Strategic Retail Operating Partnership, L.P.), a Delaware limited partnership (the “OP”). The initial limited partners of the OP were Prior Advisor and TNP Strategic Retail OP Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TNP Holdings”) affiliated with Prior Advisor. Prior Advisor invested $1,000 in the OP in exchange for common units of the OP (“Common Units”) and TNP Holdings invested $1,000 in the OP in exchange for a separate class of limited partnership units (“Special Units”). As the Company accepted subscriptions for shares of its common stock, it transferred substantially all of the net proceeds of the Offering to the OP as a capital contribution. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company owned 96.2% of the limited partnership interest in the OP. As of December 31, 2013, Prior Advisor owned 0.01% of the limited partnership interest in the OP which was sold to Glenborough Property Partners, LLC (“GPP”), an affiliate of Glenborough, on January 24, 2014. Following the expiration of the Prior Advisory Agreement, the Special Units owned by TNP Holdings were redeemed for cause, as defined in the Prior Advisory Agreement. In connection with the execution of the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor or its affiliate was to contribute $1,000 to the OP in exchange for a separate class of Special Units, and this transaction was completed in April 2014.

The Company’s principal demand for funds has been for the acquisition of real estate assets, the payment of operating expenses, the payment of interest on outstanding indebtedness and the payment of distributions to stockholders. Substantially all of the proceeds of the completed Offering have been used to fund investments in real properties and other real estate-related assets, for payment of operating expenses, for payment of interest, for payment of various fees and expenses, such as acquisition fees and management fees, and for payment of distributions to stockholders. The Company’s available capital resources, cash and cash equivalents on hand and sources of liquidity are currently limited. The Company expects its future cash needs will be funded using cash from operations, future asset sales, debt financing and the proceeds to the Company from any sale of equity that it may conduct in the future. The Company has suspended its share redemption program.

 

The Company has invested in a portfolio of income-producing retail properties located throughout the United States, with a focus on grocery anchored multi-tenant retail centers, including neighborhood, community and lifestyle shopping centers, multi-tenant shopping centers and free standing single-tenant retail properties. As of September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, the Company’s portfolio was comprised of 16properties, including one property held for sale,12properties with approximately 1,525,0001,060,000 rentable square feet of retail space located in 119 states. As of September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, the rentable space at the Company’s retail properties was 87%90% leased.

 

On March 11, 2015, the Company formed a joint venture with Grocery Retail Grand Avenue Partners, LLC, a subsidiary of Oaktree Real Estate Opportunities Fund VI, L.P., and GLB SGO, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Glenborough Property Partners, LLC (“GPP”). GPP is an affiliate of the Advisor and the Company’s property manager. See Note 4. “Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture” for additional information regarding the joint venture.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP, and their direct and indirect owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included.

 

The Company evaluates the need to consolidate joint ventures and variable interest entities based on standards set forth in ASC 810,Consolidation (“ASC 810”). In determining whether the Company has a controlling interest in a joint venture and/or a variable interest entity and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the partners/members, as well as, whether the entity is a variable interest entity for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. As of September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, the Company did not have anyheld an ownership interest in one unconsolidated joint ventures or variable interestsventure (see Note 4. “Investment in any unconsolidated variable interest entities.Unconsolidated Joint Venture” for additional information).

 

Non-Controlling Interests

 

The Company’s non-controlling interests are comprised primarily of the Common Units in the OP and, until its redemption on March 12, 2015, the membership interest in SRT Secured Holdings, LLC (“Secured Holdings”), formerly known as TNP SRT Secured Holdings, LLC, one of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Company accounts for non-controlling interests in accordance with ASC 810. In accordance with ASC 810, the Company reports non-controlling interests in subsidiaries within equity in the condensed consolidated financial statements, but separate from common stockholders’ equity. Net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests is presented as a reduction from net income (loss) in calculating net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Acquisitions or dispositions of non-controlling interests that do not result in a change of control are accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, ASC 810 requires that a parent company recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated upon a change in control. In accordance with ASC 480-10,Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, non-controlling interests that are determined to be redeemable are carried at their fair value or redemption value as of the balance sheet date and reported as liabilities or temporary equity depending on their terms. The Company periodically evaluates individual non-controlling interests for the ability to continue to recognize the non-controlling interest as permanent equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Any non-controlling interest that fails to qualify as permanent equity will be reclassified as liabilities or temporary equity. All non-controlling interests at September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015 qualified as permanent equity.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated 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 the Company’s disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated 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 the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, and actual results could differ from the estimates or assumptions used by management. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. The Company considers significant estimates to include the carrying amounts and recoverability of investments in real estate, impairments, real estate acquisition purchase price allocations, allowance for doubtful accounts, estimated useful lives to determine depreciation and amortization and fair value determinations, among others.

7

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents represents current bank accounts and other bank deposits free of encumbrances and having maturity dates of three months or less from the respective dates of deposit. The Company limits cash investments to financial institutions with high credit standing; therefore, the Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk in cash.

 

Restricted Cash

 

Restricted cash includes escrow accounts for real property taxes, insurance, capital expenditures and tenant improvements, debt service and leasing costs held by lenders.

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues include minimum rents, expense recoveries and percentage rental payments. Minimum rents are recognized on an accrual basis over the terms of the related leases on a straight-line basis when collectability is reasonably assured and the tenant has taken possession or controls the physical use of the leased property. If the lease provides for tenant improvements, the Company determines whether the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, are owned by the tenant or the Company. When the Company is the owner of the tenant improvements, the tenant is not considered to have taken physical possession or have control of the physical use of the leased asset until the tenant improvements are substantially completed. When the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvement allowance that is funded is treated as a lease incentive and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the lease term. Tenant improvement ownership is determined based on various factors including, but not limited to:

 

whether the lease stipulates how a tenant improvement allowance may be spent;

 

whether the amount of a tenant improvement allowance is in excess of market rates;

 

whether the tenant or landlord retains legal title to the improvements at the end of the lease term;

 

whether the tenant improvements are unique to the tenant or general-purpose in nature; and

 

whether the tenant improvements are expected to have any residual value at the end of the lease.

 

For leases with minimum scheduled rent increases, the Company recognizes income on a straight-line basis over the lease term when collectability is reasonably assured. Recognizing rental income on a straight-line basis for leases results in recognized revenue amounts which differ from those that are contractually due from tenants on a cash basis. If the Company determines the collectability of straight-line rents is not reasonably assured, the Company limits future recognition to amounts contractually owed and paid, and, when appropriate, establishes an allowance for estimated losses.

 

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts, including an allowance for straight-line rent receivables, for estimated losses resulting from tenant defaults or the inability of tenants to make contractual rent and tenant recovery payments. The Company monitors the liquidity and creditworthiness of its tenants on an ongoing basis. For straight-line rent amounts, the Company’s assessment is based on amounts estimated to be recoverable over the term of the lease. The Company’s straight-line rent receivable, which is included in tenant receivables, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, was $1,736,000$1,283,000 and $1,411,000$1,681,000 at September 30, 2014March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2013,2014, respectively.

Certain leases contain provisions that require the payment of additional rents based on the respective tenants’ sales volume (contingent or percentage rent) and substantially all contain provisions that require reimbursement of the tenants’ allocable real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance costs (“CAM”). Revenue based on percentage of tenants’ sales is recognized only after the tenant exceeds its sales breakpoint. Revenue from tenant reimbursements of taxes, insurance and CAM is recognized in the period that the applicable costs are incurred in accordance with the lease agreement.

 

The Company recognizes gains or losses on sales of real estate in accordance with ASC 360,Property, Plant, and Equipment (“ASC 360”). Gains are not recognized until (a) a sale has been consummated; (b) the buyer’s initial and continuing investments are adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property; (c) the Company’s receivable, if any, is not subject to future subordination; and (d) the Company has transferred to the buyer the usual risks and reward of ownership, and the Company does not have a substantial continuing involvement with the property. The results of operations of income producing properties where the Company does not have a continuing involvement are presented in the discontinued operations section of the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations when the property has been classified as held for sale or sold prior to April 30, 2014. See “– Recent Accounting Pronouncements” below for additional information.

Valuation of TenantAccounts Receivables

 

The Company makes estimates of the collectability of its tenant receivables related to base rents, including deferred rents receivable, expense reimbursements and other revenue or income.

 

The Company analyzes tenant receivables, deferred rent receivable, historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, with respect to tenants in bankruptcy, the Company will make estimates of the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims in assessing the estimated collectability of the related receivable. In some cases, the ultimate resolution of these claims can exceed one year. When a tenant is in bankruptcy, the Company will record a bad debt reserve for the tenant’s receivable balance and generally will not recognize subsequent rental revenue until cash is received or until the tenant is no longer in bankruptcy and has the ability to make rental payments.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

A concentration of credit risk arises in the Company’s business when a nationally or regionally-based tenant occupies a substantial amount of space in multiple properties owned by the Company. In that event, if the tenant suffers a significant downturn in its business, it may become unable to make its contractual rent payments to the Company, exposing the Company to potential losses in rental revenue, expense recoveries, and percentage rent. Generally, the Company does not obtain security deposits from the nationally-based or regionally-based tenants in support of their lease obligations to the Company. The Company regularly monitors its tenant base to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. As of September 30, 2014, Schnuck Markets,March 31, 2015, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. is the Company’s largest tenant (by square feet) and accounted for approximately 128,000100,000 square feet, or approximately 8%11% of the Company’s gross leasable area, and approximately $833,000,$500,000, or 5%4%, of the Company’s annual minimum rent. Two other large tenants, Publix Supermarkets, Inc., and Starplex Operating L.P., accounted for approximately 7% and 6%, respectively, of the Company’s annual minimum rent. No other tenantTenants that accounted for over 5% of the Company’s annual minimum rent. Thererent were noGold’s Gym, Stater Bros. Markets, and Ralphs. The outstanding receivables from Schnuck Markets, Inc., Publix Supermarkets, Inc.,for each of the tenants above at March 31, 2015 and Starplex Operating L.P. at September 30, 2014, compared to $35,000, $87,000, and $0, respectively, at December 31, 2013.2014 were as follows:

     Outstanding Tenant Receivables as of: 
Tenant % of Annual

Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. 4%  $24,000  $- 
Gold's Gym 6%   -   3,000 
Stater Bros. Markets 7%   14,000   - 
Ralphs 7%   22,000   31,000 
Total     $60,000  $34,000 

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company records the acquisition of income-producing real estate or real estate that will be used for the production of income as a business combination when the acquired property meets the definition of a business. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are generally measured at their acquisition-date fair values, including tenant improvements and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities. Tenant improvements recognized represent the tangible assets associated with the existing leases valued on a fair value basis at the acquisition date. Tenant improvements are classified as assets under investments in real estate and are depreciated over the remaining lease terms. Identifiable intangible assets and liabilities relate to the value of in-place operating leases which come in three formsforms: (1) leasing commissions and legal costs, which represent the value associated with “cost avoidance” of acquiring in-place leases, such as lease commissions paid under terms generally experienced in markets in which the Company operates; (2) value of in-place leases, which represents the estimated loss of revenue and of costs incurred for the period required to lease the “assumed vacant” property to the occupancy level when purchased; and (3) above- or below-market value of in-place leases, which represents the difference between the contractual rents and market rents at the time of the acquisition, discounted for tenant credit risks. The value of in-place leases is recorded in acquired lease intangibles and amortized over the remaining lease term. Above- or below-market-rate leases are classified in acquired lease intangibles, or in acquired below-market lease intangibles, depending on whether the contractual terms are above- or below-market. Above-market leases are amortized as a decrease to rental revenue over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases and below-market leases are amortized as an increase to rental revenue over the remaining initial lease term and any fixed rate renewal periods, if applicable.

Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not acquire any properties. Costs incurred in pursuit of targeted properties for acquisitions not yet closed or those determined to no longer be viable and costs incurred which are expected to result in future period disposals of property not currently classified as held for sale properties have been expensed and are also classified in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as transaction expenses.

 

Estimates of the fair values of the tangible assets, identifiable intangibles and assumed liabilities require the Company to make significant assumptions to estimate market lease rates, property operating expenses, carrying costs during lease-up periods, discount rates, market absorption periods, and the number of years the property will be held for investment. The use of inappropriate assumptions would result in an incorrect valuation of the Company’s acquired tangible assets, identifiable intangibles and assumed liabilities, which would impact the amount of the Company’s results of operations. These allocations also impact depreciation expense, amortization expense and gains or losses recorded on future sales of properties.

Reportable Segments

 

ASC 280,Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting financial and descriptive information about an enterprise’s reportable segments. The Company has one reportable segment, income-producing retail properties, which consists of activities related to investing in real estate. The retail properties are geographically diversified throughout the United States, and the Company evaluates operating performance on an overall portfolio level.

Investments in Real Estate

 

Real property is recorded at estimated fair value at time of acquisition with subsequent additions at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Costs include those related to acquisition, development and construction, including tenant improvements, interest incurred during development, costs of pre-development and certain direct and indirect costs of development.

 

Depreciation and amortization is computed using a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

 

 Years
Buildings and improvements5 - 48 years
Exterior improvements10 - 20 years
Equipment and fixtures5 - 10 years

 

Tenant improvement costs recorded as capital assets are depreciated over the shorter of (1) the tenant’s remaining lease term or (2)which the Company has determined approximates the useful life of the improvement.

 

Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as incurred. Significant renovations and improvements that improve or extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its investments in real estate and related intangible assets may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment suggest that the carrying value of real estate and related intangible assets 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 through its undiscounted future cash flows (excluding interest) 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 investments in real estate and related intangible assets. Key inputs that the Company estimates in this analysis include projected rental rates, capital expenditures, property sale capitalization rates, and expected holding period of the property. For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recordeddid not record any impairment losses of $2,500,000 and $1,400,000 on its investments in Constitution Trail and Topaz Marketplace, respectively.losses. See Note 7.8. “Fair Value Disclosures” for additional information regarding the impairment loss. The Company did not record any impairment losses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations

 

When certain criteria are met, long-lived assets are classified as held for sale and are reported at the lower of their carrying value or their fair value, less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. DiscontinuedFor property sales prior to May 1, 2014, discontinued operations is a component of an entity that has either been disposed of or is deemed to be held for sale and (i) the operations and cash flows of the component have been or will be eliminated from ongoing operations as a result of the disposal transaction and (ii) the entity willdoes not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the component after the disposal transaction. See “– Recent Accounting Pronouncements” below for additional information.For property sales on or after May 1, 2014, a disposal of a component of an entity is required to be reported as discontinued operations only if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.

Fair Value Measurements

 

Under GAAP, the Company is required to measure or disclose certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, the Company is required to measure other financial instruments and balances at fair value on a non-recurring basis (e.g., carrying value of impaired real estate loans receivable and long-lived assets). Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

 

Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available for inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.measurement.

 

When available, the Company utilizes quoted market prices or other observable inputs (Level 2 inputs), such as interest rates or yield curves, from independent third-party sources to determine fair value and classify such items in Level 1 or Level 2. In instances where the market for a financial instrument is not active, regardless of the availability of a nonbinding quoted market price, observable inputs might not be relevant and could require the Company to use significant judgment to derive a fair value measurement. Additionally, in an inactive market, a market price quoted from an independent third partythird-party may rely more on models with inputs based on information available only to that independent third party. When the Company determines the market for an asset owned by it to be illiquid or when market transactions for similar instruments do not appear orderly, the Company uses several valuation sources (including internal valuations, discounted cash flow analysis and quoted market prices) and establishes a fair value by assigning weights to the various valuation sources. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as assets; or (ii) a present value technique that considers the future cash flows based on contractual obligations discounted by an observed or estimated market rates of comparable liabilities. The use of contractual cash flows with regard to amount and timing significantly reduces the judgment applied in arriving at fair value.

 

Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values. In this regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.

The Company considers the following factors to be indicators of an inactive marketmarket: (1) there are few recent transactions; (2) price quotations are not based on current information; (3) price quotations vary substantially either over time or among market makers (for example, some brokered markets); (4) indexes that previously were highly correlated with the fair values of the asset or liability are demonstrably uncorrelated with recent indications of fair value for that asset or liability; (5) there is a significant increase in implied liquidity risk premiums, yields, or performance indicators (such as delinquency rates or loss severities) for observed transactions or quoted prices when compared with the Company’s estimate of expected cash flows, considering all available market data about credit and other nonperformance risk for the asset or liability; (6) there is a wide bid-ask spread or significant increase in the bid-ask spread; (7) there is a significant decline or absence of a market for new issuances (that is, a primary market) for the asset or liability or similar assets or liabilities; and (8) little information is released publicly (for example, a principal-to-principal market).

 

The Company considers the following factors to be indicators of non-orderly transactionstransactions: (1) there was not adequate exposure to the market for a period before the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets or liabilities under current market conditions; (2) there was a usual and customary marketing period, but the seller marketed the asset or liability to a single market participant; (3) the seller is in or near bankruptcy or receivership (that is, distressed), or the seller was required to sell to meet regulatory or legal requirements (that is, forced); and (4) the transaction price is an outlier when compared with other recent transactions for the same or similar assets or liabilities.

Deferred Financing Costs

 

Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, loan fees, legal fees and other third-party costs associated with obtaining financing. These costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financings that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close.

Income Taxes

 

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

 

The Company evaluates tax positions taken in the condensed consolidated financial statements under the interpretation for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. As a result of this evaluation, the Company may recognize a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is “more-likely-than-not” that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities.

 

When necessary, deferred income taxes are recognized in certain taxable entities. Deferred income tax is generally a function of the period’s temporary differences (items that are treated differently for tax purposes than for financial reporting purposes). A valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets is provided if all or some portion of the deferred income tax asset may not be realized. Any increase or decrease in the valuation allowance is generally included in deferred income tax expense.

 

The Company’s tax returns remain subject to examination and consequently, the taxability of the distributions is subject to change.

 

Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed after adjusting the basic EPS computation for the effect of potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. The effect of non-vested shares, if dilutive, is computed using the treasury stock method. The Company accounts for non-vested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) as participating securities, which are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Company’s excess of distributions over earnings related to participating securities are shown as a reduction in income (loss) attributable to common stockholders in the Company’s computation of EPS.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014,unless the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08,Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant, and Equipment. ASU No. 2014-08 raises the criteria for reporting discontinued operations on an entity’s financial statements. Under the revised standard, a disposal of a component of an entity is required to be reported as discontinued operations only if the disposal representssold properties represent a strategic shift that hashave had (or will have) a major effect on an entity’sthe Company’s operations and financial results. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and early adoption is permitted but only for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. As the Company’s disposals generally do not represent a strategic shift, the adoption of ASU No. 2014-08 should eliminate the need to report such disposals as discontinued operations on the Company’s financial statements for any disposals that were not previously classified as discontinued operations. As permitted by the standard, the Company has elected to early adopt the provisions of ASU No. 2014-08 and is applying the provisions prospectively for all disposals after April 30, 2014.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU No. 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenues arising from contracts with customers. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016,2017, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the future impact of the guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15,Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern. ASU No. 2014-15 provides guidance regarding management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The new guidance requires that management evaluate for each annual and interim reporting period whether conditions exist that give rise to substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the financial statement issuance date, and if so, provide related disclosures. Disclosures are only required if conditions give rise to substantial doubt, whether or not the substantial doubt is alleviated by management’s plans. No disclosures are required specific to going concern uncertainties if an assessment of the conditions does not give rise to substantial doubt. Substantial doubt exists when conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, indicate that it is probable that a company will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the financial statement issuance date. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. A reporting entity may apply the amendments in the ASU retrospectively to all prior periods. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

KeyBank Amended and Restated Credit Facility Agreement

 

On August 4, 2014,In connection with the sale of Constitution Trail and Aurora Commons to the Joint Venture on March 11, 2015 (see Note 4. “Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture”), the Company entered into anused a portion of the net sale proceeds to pay off the entire $19 million outstanding balance under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”) with KeyBank. The Company will maintain the Amended and Restated Credit Facility for future cash needs.

Prior to the pay off, on August 4, 2014, the Company entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Facility with KeyBank to amend and restate an original 2010 Credit Facility (defined below) in its entirety and to establish a revolving credit facility with an initial maximum aggregate commitment of $30,000,000$30 million (as adjusted, the “Facility Amount”). Subject to certain terms and conditions contained in the loan documents, the Company may request that the Facility Amount be increased to a maximum of $60,000,000.$60 million. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility iswas initially secured by the San Jacinto Esplanade, Aurora Commons and Constitution Trail.Trail properties.

 

The Amended and Restated Credit Facility matures on August 4, 2017. The Company has the right to prepay the Amended and Restated Credit Facility in whole at any time or in part from time to time, subject to the payment of certain expenses, costs or liabilities potentially incurred by the lenders as a result of the prepayment and subject to certain other conditions contained in the loan documents.

 

Each loan made pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility will be either a LIBOR rate loan or a base rate loan, at the election of the Company, plus an applicable margin, as defined. Monthly payments are interest only with the entire principal balance and all outstanding interest due at maturity. The Company will pay KeyBank an unused commitment fee, quarterly in arrears, which will accrue at 0.30% per annum if the usage under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is less than or equal to 50% of the Facility Amount, and 0.20% per annum if the usage under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is greater than 50% of the Facility Amount.

The Company is providing a guaranty of all of its obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility and all other loan documents in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. The Company also paid Glenborough a financing coordination fee of $300,000 in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Facility.

 

On August 4, 2014, as required by the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the OP contributed 100% of its sole membership interest in SRT Constitution Trail, LLC, which ownsowned the Constitution Trail property, to Secured Holdings (the “Constitution Transaction”) for additional membership interests in Secured Holdings. At the time, Secured Holdings iswas jointly owned by the OP and SRT Secured Holdings Manager, LLC (“SRT Manager”), an affiliate of Glenborough.Manager. Prior to the Constitution Transaction, the OP owned 88% of the membership interests in Secured Holdings and SRT Manager owned 12% of the membership interests in Secured Holdings. Following the Constitution Transaction, the OP ownsowned 91.67% of the membership interests in Secured Holdings, and SRT Manager ownsowned 8.33% of the membership interests in Secured Holdings which was derived based on the fair value of the property atproperties as of the date of the contribution. Subsequently, Secured Holdings paid SRT Manager approximately $2.1 million in full redemption of SRT Manager’s 8.33% membership interest in Secured Holdings.

 

In connection with the Constitution Transaction, the entire outstanding notes payable balance due to Constitution Trail’s prior lender was fully paid, and theConstitution Trail’s remaining $295,000 in unamortized deferred financing costs was written off. The new outstanding principal balance of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility was $20,800,000,$20.8 million, as of August 4, 2014.

 

The original line of credit was entered into on December 17, 2010 between the Company, through its subsidiary, Secured Holdings, and KeyBank (and certain other lenders, collectively, the “Lenders”) to establish a secured revolving credit facility with an initial maximum aggregate commitment of $35,000,000$35 million (the “2010 Credit Facility”). On August 4, 2014, the 2010 Credit Facility was replaced by the Amended and Restated Credit Facility.

Borrowings underFacility, and there were no remaining unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the 2010 Credit Facility were secured by (1) pledges by the Company, the OP, Secured Holdings, and certain subsidiaries of Secured Holdings, of their respective direct and indirect equity ownership interests in, as applicable, any subsidiary of Secured Holdings or the Company which directly or indirectly owns real property, subject to certain limitations and exceptions; (2) guarantees, granted by the Company and the OP on a joint and several basis, of the prompt and full payment of all of the obligations under the 2010 Credit Facility; (3) a security interest granted in favor of KeyBank with respect to all operating, depository, escrow and security deposit accounts and all cash management services of the Company, the OP, Secured Holdings and any other borrower under the 2010 Credit Facility; and (4) a deed of trust, assignment agreement, security agreement and fixture filing in favor of KeyBank with respect to the San Jacinto Esplanade and Aurora Commons properties. As discussed below, due to the Company’s events of default under the 2010 Credit Facility, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with KeyBank.at that time.

 

Under the 2010 Credit Facility, the Company was required to comply with certain restrictive and financial covenants. In January 2013, the Company became aware of a number of events of default under the 2010 Credit Facility relating to, among other things, the Company’s failure to use the net proceeds from its sale of shares in the Offering and the sale of its assets to repay borrowings under the 2010 Credit Facility as required by the 2010 Credit Facility and its failure to satisfy certain financial covenants under the 2010 Credit Facility (collectively, the “Existing Events of Default”). The Company also failed to comply with certain financial covenants at March 31, 2013. Due to the Existing Events of Default, the Lenders became entitled to exercise all of their rights and remedies under the 2010 Credit Facility and applicable law.

On April 1, 2013, the Company, the OP, certain subsidiaries of the OP which are borrowers under the 2010 Credit Facility (collectively, the “Borrowers”) and KeyBank, as lender and agent for the other Lenders, entered into a forbearance agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) which amended the terms of the 2010 Credit Facility and provided for certain additional agreements with respect to the Existing Events of Default. On July 31, 2013, the OP, the Borrowers and KeyBank entered into an amendment to the Forbearance Agreement which extended the forbearance period under the Forbearance Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Agreement (as amended), KeyBank and the other Lenders agreed to forbear the exercise of their rights and remedies with respect to the Existing Events of Default until the earliest to occur of (1) January 31, 2014; (2) the Company’s default under or breach of any of the representations or covenants under the Forbearance Agreement; or (3) the date any additional events of defaults (other than the Existing Events of Default) under the 2010 Credit Facility occurred or became known to KeyBank or any other Lender.

On December 11, 2013, the Company, the OP, the Borrowers and KeyBank entered into the second amendment to Forbearance Agreement. The second forbearance amendment amended the Forbearance Agreement and the 2010 Credit Facility as follows:

·The Lenders’ obligation to provide forbearance terminates on the first to occur of (1) July 31, 2014; (2) a default under or breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of the Forbearance Agreement; or (3) an event of default (other than the Existing Events of Default) under the loan documents related to the 2010 Credit Facility occurring or becoming known to any Lender (such date the “Forbearance Expiration Date”).
·The entire outstanding principal balance, and all interest thereon, of the outstanding Tranche A loans under the 2010 Credit Facility became due and payable in full on July 31, 2014, instead of January 31, 2014.

·The Company, the OP and the Borrowers were required to apply eighty percent (80%), as opposed to one hundred percent (100%), of the net proceeds received from specified capital events, including a sale or refinancing of the Company’s properties, to Tranche A loans, unless an event of default, other than the Existing Events of Default, occurred, in which case they had to apply one hundred percent (100%) of the net proceeds to Tranche A loans.

·The Company, the OP and the Borrowers were permitted to pay distributions, provided that the aggregate amount of such distributions did not exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the Company’s Adjusted Funds from Operations (on a trailing 12-month basis commencing on April 1, 2013), as defined in the 2010 Credit Facility agreement.

As previously reported, in connection with the Forbearance Agreement, the Borrowers and KeyBank entered into a fee letter pursuant to which the Borrowers paid KeyBank a forbearance fee (the “Fee Letter”). On July 31, 2013, in connection with the first amendment to the Forbearance Agreement, the Borrowers and KeyBank amended the Fee Letter and the Borrowers paid KeyBank an additional forbearance fee. On December 11, 2013, in connection with the second forbearance amendment, the Borrowers and KeyBank further amended the Fee Letter and the Borrowers agreed to pay an additional forbearance fee.

On July 31, 2014, in connection with the negotiation of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, KeyBank agreed to extend the forbearance period under the Forbearance Agreement to August 14, 2014.

Waianae Loan Assumption

On January 22, 2013, the Company sold the Waianae Mall in Waianae, Hawaii to an unaffiliated buyer for a final sales price of $29,763,000. The mortgage loan secured by the Waianae Mall with an outstanding balance of $19,717,000 was assumed by the buyer in connection with the sale. The Company incurred a disposition fee to Prior Advisor of $893,000 in connection with the sale.

Lahaina Loan

In connection with the acquisition of Lahaina Gateway property on November 9, 2012, the Company, through TNP SRT Lahaina, borrowed $29,000,000 from the Lahaina Lender. The entire unpaid principal balance of the Lahaina Loan and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon was due and payable in full on October 1, 2017. The Lahaina Loan bore interest at a rate of 9.483% per annum for the initial 12 months, and then 11.429% for the remainder of the term of the loan. On each of December 1, 2012, January 1, 2013, and February 1, 2013, the Company was required to make a mandatory principal prepayment of $333,333, such that the Company would prepay an aggregate $1,000,000 of the outstanding principal balance of the Lahaina Loan, no later than February 1, 2013.

On January 14, 2013, the Company received a letter of default from the Lahaina Lender in connection with the certain Guaranty of Recourse Obligations by the Company and Anthony W. Thompson, the Company’s chairman and co-chief executive officer at the time, for the benefit of the Lahaina Lender, pursuant to which the Company and Mr. Thompson guaranteed the obligations of TNP SRT Lahaina under the Lahaina Loan. The letter of default stated that two events of default existed under the Lahaina Loan as a result of the failure of TNP SRT Lahaina to (1) pay a deposit into a rollover account; and (2) pay two mandatory principal payments. The Lahaina Lender requested payment of the missed deposit into the rollover account, the two overdue mandatory principal payments, and late payment charges and default interest in the aggregate amount of $1,281,000 by January 18, 2013. On January 22, 2013, the Company used a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Waianae Mall (discussed above) to pay the entire amount requested by Lahaina Lender and cure the events of default described in the letter of default under the Lahaina Loan.

Since the acquisition of the Lahaina Gateway property on November 9, 2012, cash from operations from the Lahaina Gateway property was not sufficient to support the property’s operating expenses, the debt service obligations under the Lahaina Loan, and the various cash reserve requirements imposed by the Lahaina Lender. As a result, since the acquisition of the Lahaina Gateway property, the Company had supported the property’s cash requirements with cash from operations generated by other properties within the Company’s portfolio. In addition to the property cash flow issues, the Lahaina Loan contained a number of provisions that potentially exposed the Company to increased risk and constrained its ability to make certain strategic decisions. In order to settle the Company’s obligations under the Lahaina Loan and avoid potential litigation and foreclosure proceedings (and the associated delays and expenses), relating to the Lahaina Gateway property, on August 1, 2013, the Company entered into a deed in lieu of foreclosure agreement with the Lahaina Lender (the “DIL Agreement”). Pursuant to the DIL Agreement, the Company conveyed title to the Lahaina Gateway property to a designee of the Lahaina Lender in exchange for the Lahaina Lender’s agreement not to seek payment from the Company for any amounts owed under the Lahaina Loan, subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the DIL Agreement and the agreements entered into in connection therewith. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company realized a loss of $5,404,000 associated with the deed in lieu transaction which was derived from the carrying value of all of Lahaina Gateway’s assets of $34,070,000 less the carrying value of all of its liabilities of $28,666,000, on August 1, 2013.

KeyBank Mezzanine Loan

On June 13, 2012, the Company, through TNP SRT Portfolio II Holdings, LLC obtained a mezzanine loan from KeyBank in the original principal amount of $2,000,000. The proceeds of the mezzanine loan were used to refinance the portions of the 2010 Credit Facility secured by Morningside Marketplace, Cochran Bypass (Bi-Lo Grocery Store), Ensenada Square, Florissant Marketplace and Turkey Creek. The mezzanine loan was repaid in full in January 2013 using a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Waianae Mall.

7.8. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

 

The Company believes the total carrying values reflected on its condensed consolidated balance sheets reasonably approximate the fair values for cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and amounts due to affiliates due to their short-term nature, except for the Company’s notes payable, which are disclosed below.

 

The fair value of the Company’s notes payable is estimated using a present value technique based on contractual cash flows and management’s observations 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. The Company significantly reduces the amount of judgment and subjectivity in its fair value determination through the use of cash flow inputs that are based on contractual obligations. Discount rates are determined by observing interest rates published by independent market participants for comparable instruments. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 2 inputs.

 

The following table provides the carrying values and fair values of the Company’s notes payable related to continuing operations as of September 30, 2014March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2013:2014:

 

September 30, 2014 Carrying Value (1)  Fair Value(2) 
March 31, 2015 Carrying Value (1)  Fair Value(2) 
Notes Payable $121,887,000  $123,439,000  $85,485,000  $86,855,000 

 

December 31, 2013 Carrying Value(1)  Fair Value(2) 
December 31, 2014 Carrying Value(1)  Fair Value(2) 
Notes Payable $124,017,000  $124,306,000  $122,148,000  $123,511,000 

 

(1)The carrying value of the Company’s notes payable represents outstanding principal as of September 30, 2014March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2013.2014.

 

(2)The estimated fair value of the notes payable is based upon the estimated present valueindicative market prices of the Company’s notes payable based on prevailing market interest rates.

As part of the Company’s ongoing evaluation of the Company’s real estate portfolio, the Company estimates the fair value of its investments in real estate by obtaining outside independent appraisals on all of the properties. With the exception of Constitution Trail and Topaz Marketplace, all appraisals presented values in excess of the carrying value of such properties as of September 30, 2014. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company re-evaluated the strategy and possible holding periods of its properties and determined that the holding periods for Constitution Trail and Topaz Marketplace may be significantly reduced. As a result, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recorded impairment losses of $2,500,000 and $1,400,000 on its investments in Constitution Trail and Topaz Marketplace, respectively, based on the properties’ excess carrying value over its appraised value at September 30, 2014.

The Company adopted the DRIP to allow common stockholders to purchase additional shares of the Company’s common stock through the reinvestment of distributions, subject to certain conditions. The Company registered and reserved 10,526,316 shares of its common stock for sale pursuant to the DRIP. The DRIP was terminated effective February 7, 2013 in connection with the expiration of the Offering and the Company’s deregistration of all of the unsold shares registered for sale pursuant to the Offering. As a result, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, no distributions were reinvested, and no shares of common stock were issued under the DRIP. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, $246,000 in distributions were reinvested and 25,940 shares of common stock were issued under the DRIP.

9.10. EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS is computed after adjusting the basic EPS computation for the effect of potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. The effect of non-vested shares, if dilutive, is computed using the treasury stock method. The Company applies the two-class method for determining EPS as its outstanding shares of non-vested restricted stock are considered participating securities as dividend payments are not forfeited even if the underlying award does not vest. The Company’s excess of distributions over earnings related to participating securities are shown as a reduction in income (loss) attributable to common stockholders in the Company’s computation of EPS.

 

The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share:share for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

10.11. INCENTIVE AWARD PLAN

 

The Company adopted an incentive award plan on July 7, 2009 (the “Incentive Award Plan”) that provides for the grant of equity awards to its employees, directors and consultants and those of the Company’s affiliates. The Incentive Award Plan authorizes the grant of non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalents and other stock-based awards or cash-based awards. The Company has reserved 2,000,000 shares of common stock for stock grants pursuant to the Incentive Award Plan.

 

Pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Independent Directors Compensation Plan, which is a sub-plan of the Incentive Award Plan (the “Directors Plan”), the Company granted each of its independent directors an initial grant of 5,000 shares of restricted stock (the “initial restricted stock grant”) following the Company’s raising of the $2,000,000$2 million minimum offering amount in the Offering on November 12, 2009. Each new independent director that subsequently joined the board of directors received the initial restricted stock grant on the date he or she joined the board of directors. In addition, until the Company terminated the Offering on February 7, 2013, on the date of each of the Company’s annual stockholders meetings at which an independent director was re-elected to the board of directors, he or she may have received 2,500 shares of restricted stock. The restricted stock vests one-third on the date of grant and one-third on each of the next two anniversaries of the grant date. The restricted stock will become fully vested and non-forfeitable in the event of an independent director’s termination of service due to his or her death or disability, or upon the occurrence of a change in control of the Company.

For the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2014, and 2013, the Company recognized compensation expense of $4,000 and $8,000, respectively,of$8,000 related to restricted common stock grants to its independent directors, which is included in general and administrative expense in the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized compensation expense of $18,000 and $33,000, respectively. Shares of restricted common stock have full voting rights and rights to dividends.

 

As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there was $51 and $18,000, respectively,2014, all of total unrecognizedthe compensation expense related to non-vested shares of restricted common stock. As of September 30, 2014, this expense is expected to be realized over the remaining period of the year. As of September 30, 2014stock has been recognized, and December 31, 2013, 1,667 and 3,333 shares of restricted common stock remain unvested with a fair value of $15,000 and $30,000, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, there were no restricted stock grants issued and 1,666 shares of restricted stock vested.

11.12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Pursuant to the Prior Advisory Agreement by and among the Company, the OP and the Prior Advisor, the Company was obligated to pay Prior Advisor specified fees upon the provision of certain services related to the investment of funds in real estate and real estate-related investments, management of the Company’s investments and for other services. Pursuant to the dealer manager agreement (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”) by and among the Company, the OP, and TNP Securities, LLC (the “Dealer Manager” or “TNP Securities”), prior to the termination of the Offering, the Company was obligated to pay the Dealer Manager certain commissions and fees in connection with the sales of shares in the Offering. Subject to certain limitations, the Company was also obligated to reimburse Prior Advisor and Dealer Manager for organization and offering costs incurred by Prior Advisor and Dealer Manager on behalf of the Company, and the Company was obligated to reimburse Prior Advisor for acquisition and origination expenses and certain operating expenses incurred on behalf of the Company or incurred in connection with providing services to the Company. The Company records all related party fees as incurred, subject to any limitations described in the Prior Advisory Agreement.

On August 7, 2013, the Company allowed the Prior Advisory Agreement with the Prior Advisor to expire without renewal, and on August 10, 2013, the Company entered into the Advisory Agreement with Advisor. On July 15, 2014, the Advisory Agreement with the Advisor was renewed for an additional twelve months, beginning on August 10, 2014. The Advisor manages the Company’s business as the Company’s external advisor pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Company will pay Advisor specified fees for services related to the investment of funds in real estate and real estate-related investments, management of the Company’s investments and for other services.

 

On July 9, 2013, SRT Manager, an affiliate of the Advisor, acquired an initial 12% membership interest in Secured Holdings, the Company’s wholly-ownedwholly owned subsidiary. Following the Constitution Transaction on August 4, 2014 (see Note 6.7. “Notes Payable”), SRT Manager’s membership interests in Secured Holdings decreased to 8.33%., and followingthe sale of Secured Holding’s two properties to the Joint Venture (see Note 4. “Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture”), Secured Holdings paid SRT Manager approximately $2.1 million in full redemption of the then current value of its remaining 8.33% membership interest in Secured Holdings.

 

On January 24, 2014, GPP purchased 22,222 and 111,111 shares of the Company from TNP LLC and Sharon D. Thompson, respectively, for $8.00 per share. ThatThe share purchase transaction was part of a larger settlement of issues relating to the 2013 annual meeting proxy contest, and doeswas not necessarilyconsidered an arm’s length transaction. Therefore, the share purchase price may not reflect a market price or value for such securities (see Note 8.9. “Equity”).

On March 11, 2015, the Company sold Osceola Village, Constitution Trail, and Aurora Commons for the aggregate gross sales price of $53.6 million. The sale of the three properties was completed in connection with the formation of the Joint Venture as defined and further described in Note 4. “Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture.” The three properties were sold to the Joint Venture, and the closing of the sale was conditioned on the Company receiving a 19% membership interest in the Joint Venture. In exchange for this 19% membership interest, the Company contributed $4.5 million to the Joint Venture, which amount was credited against the Company’s sale of the three properties to the Joint Venture. Of the net sales proceeds from the sale of the three properties, $36.4 million was used by the Company to retire the debt associated with the sold properties.

In March 2012, the Company reimbursed its Prior Advisor $240,000 related to a non-refundable earnest deposit incurred by an affiliate of Prior Advisor in 2010 on a potential acquisition commonly known as Morrison Crossing. The reimbursement was subsequently determined by the Company to be non-reimbursable since the acquisition was not one that was approved by the Company’s board of directors in 2010 and accordingly, the Company recorded the amount as a receivable from Prior Advisor and recorded a provision to reserve the entire amount at December 31, 2012, and until May 2013, when the Company settled with Prior Advisor and determined to not seek reimbursement from Prior Advisor for the amount previously paid.

Organization and Offering Costs

Organization and offering costs of the Company (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee described below) were initially paid by Prior Advisor and its affiliates on the Company’s behalf. Such costs include legal, accounting, printing and other offering expenses, including marketing, salaries and direct expenses of certain of Prior Advisor’s employees and employees of Prior Advisor’s affiliates and others. Pursuant to the Prior Advisory Agreement, the Company was obligated to reimburse Prior Advisor or its affiliates, as applicable, for organization and offering costs associated with the Offering, provided the Company was not obligated to reimburse Prior Advisor to the extent organization and offering costs, other than selling commissions and dealer manager fees, incurred by the Company exceed 3% of the gross offering proceeds from the Offering. Any such reimbursement will not exceed actual expenses incurred by Prior Advisor.

As of September 30, 2014, cumulative organization and offering costs incurred by Prior Advisor on the Company’s behalf were $3,272,000, net of a reimbursement discussed below. These costs were payable by the Company to the extent organization and offering costs, other than selling commissions and dealer manager fees, did not exceed 3% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. As of September 30, 2014, cumulative organization and offering costs reimbursed to Prior Advisor or paid directly by the Company were $4,273,000, which amount exceeded 3% of the gross proceeds from the Offering by $1,001,000. This excess amount was billed to Prior Advisor and settled as of January 31, 2013.

Under the new Advisory Agreement, the Company shall reimburse Advisor for all offering and marketing related expenses incurred on the Company’s behalf in connection with any private placement up to 2% of the gross proceeds of such private placement. There were no such expenses under the new Advisory Agreement for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Selling Commissions and Dealer Manager Fees

Prior to the termination of the Offering, the Dealer Manager received a sales commission of 7% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock in the primary offering. The Dealer Manager also received 3% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares in the primary offering in the form of a dealer manager fee as compensation for acting as the dealer manager. The Company incurred selling commissions and dealer manager fees during the following periods:

(1)The guaranty fees were paid to TNP LLC (see “Guaranty Fees” below for additional information), an affiliate of the prior advisor.

 

Reimbursement of Operating Expenses

The Company reimbursed Prior Advisor for all expenses paid or incurred by Prior Advisor in connection with the services provided to the Company, subject to the limitation that the Company did not reimburse Prior Advisor for any amount by which the Company’s total operating expenses (including the asset management fee described below) at the end of the four preceding fiscal quarters exceeded the greater of (1) 2% of its average invested assets (as defined in the Charter); or (2) 25% of its net income (as defined in the Charter) determined without reduction for any additions to depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash expenses and excluding any gain from the sale of the Company’s assets for that period (the “2%/25% Guideline”). Prior Advisor was required to reimburse the Company quarterly for any amounts by which total operating expenses exceed the 2%/25% Guideline in the previous expense year. Notwithstanding the above, the Company could reimburse Prior Advisor for expenses in excess of the 2%/25% Guideline if a majority of the independent directors determined that such excess expenses were justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors.

Under the Advisory Agreement, the terms and conditions regarding the reimbursement of operating expenses are generally the same as the Prior Advisory Agreement, except for the following differences. The Company will not reimburse Advisor for any of its personnel costs or other overhead costs except for customary reimbursements for personnel costs under property management agreements entered into between the OP and Advisor or its affiliates. Beginning after the first four fiscal quarters following Advisor’s engagement, the Company will not reimburse Advisor or its affiliates at the end of any fiscal quarter in which total operating expenses for the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended exceeds the 2%/25% Guideline. Also, under the Advisory Agreement, for purposes of calculating the excess amount, the Company’s board of directors has determined that “total operating expenses” will not include (a) amounts (i) paid to Prior Advisor or its affiliates related to or in connection with the termination of the Prior Advisory Agreement, the dealer manager agreement, or any property management agreements or other agreements with Prior Advisor or its affiliates; or (ii) amounts incurred in connection with the termination of the agreements described in the foregoing clause (i), including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, litigation costs and expenses and amounts paid in settlement (but excluding costs associated with obtaining lender approvals to any such termination and engagement of our advisor or its affiliates as a replacement under such agreements); and (b) “total operating expenses” incurred prior to the date of the execution of the Advisory Agreement. Under the Advisory Agreement, Advisor is required to reimburse the Company quarterly for any amounts by which total operating expenses exceed the 2%/25% Guideline in the previous expense year, or the Company may subtract such excess from the total operating expenses for the subsequent fiscal quarter.

For the twelve months ended September 30, 2014, the Company’s total operating expenses (as defined in the Charter) did not exceed the 2%/25% Guideline.

The Company reimbursed Prior Advisor and Advisor for the cost of administrative services, including personnel costs and its allocable share of other overhead of Prior Advisor and Advisor such as rent and utilities; provided, however, that no reimbursement could be made for costs of such personnel to the extent that personnel are used in transactions for which Prior Advisor and Advisor received a separate fee or with respect to an officer of the Company. See the Summary of Related-Party Fees table for incurred administrative services paid to Prior Advisor and Advisor for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Property Management Fee

The Company terminated its property management agreements with TNP Property Manager, LLC, its property manager and an affiliate of Prior Advisor, effective August 9, 2013. The Company entered into new property management agreements with Glenborough effective August 10, 2013. The terms and conditions of the new property management agreements with Glenborough are generally the same as the prior property management agreements except the property management fees are calculated at a maximum of up to 4% of gross revenue (reduced from 5% in the prior agreements) and the terms of the new property management agreements are 12 months (unlike the purported 20-year term of the prior property management agreements). The property management agreements with Glenborough have been renewed for an additional twelve months, beginning on August 10, 2014. See the Summary of Related Party Fees table for incurred property management fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Acquisition and Origination Fee

The Company paid Prior Advisor an acquisition fee equal to 2.5% of the cost of investments acquired, including acquisition expenses and any debt attributable to such investments. Under the Advisory Agreement, Advisor is entitled to receive an acquisition fee equal to 1% of the costs of investments acquired, including acquisition expenses and any debt attributable to such investments. See the Summary of Related Party Fees table for incurred acquisition fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

The Company paid Prior Advisor 2.5% of the amount funded by the Company to acquire or originate real estate-related loans, including third party expenses related to such investments and any debt used to fund the acquisition or origination of the real estate-related loans. Under the Advisory Agreement, Advisor is entitled to receive an origination fee equal to 1% of the amount funded by the Company to acquire or originate real estate-related loans, including any acquisition expenses related to such investment and any debt used to fund the acquisition or origination of the real estate-related loans. There were no loan origination fees incurred for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Asset Management Fee

 

The Company paid Prior Advisor a monthly asset management fee equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of 0.6% of the aggregate cost of all real estate investments the Company acquires; provided, however, that Prior Advisor could not be paid the asset management fee until the Company’s funds from operations exceed the lesser of (1) the cumulative amount of any distributions declared and payable to the Company’s stockholders; or (2) an amount that is equal to a 10% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on invested capital for the Company’s stockholders. On November 11, 2011, the board of directors approved Amendment No. 2 to the Prior Advisory Agreement to clarify that upon termination of the Prior Advisory Agreement, any asset management fees that may have accumulated in arrears, but which had not been earned pursuant to the terms of the Prior Advisory Agreement, will not be paid to Prior Advisor.

Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor willis entitled to receive an asset management fee equal to a monthly fee of one-twelfth (1/12th) of 0.6% of the higher of (1) aggregate cost on a GAAP basis (before non-cash reserves and depreciation) of all investments the Company owns, including any debt attributable to such investments; or (2) the fair market value of investments (before non-cash reserves and deprecation) if the Company’s board of directors has authorized the estimate of a fair market value of the Company’s investments; provided, however, that the asset management fee will not be less than $250,000 in the aggregate during any one calendar year.

See the Summary of Related Party Fees table above for incurred asset management fees for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2015 and 2014.

Reimbursement of Operating Expenses

12.13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Deficiency Dividend

 

In June 2011, under TNP Strategic Retail Advisor, LLC, the Prior Advisor,Company’s prior advisor, the Company acquired a debt obligation (the “Distressed Debt”) for $18,000,000.$18 million.  In October 2011, the Company received the underlying collateral (the “Collateral”) with respect to the Distressed Debt in full settlement of the Company’s debt claim (the “Settlement”).  At the time of the Settlement, the Company received an independent valuation of the Collateral’s fair market value (“FMV”) of $27,600,000.$27.6 million.  The Settlement resulted in taxable income to the Company in an amount equal to the FMV of the Collateral less its adjusted basis for tax purposes in the Distressed Debt.  Such income was not properly reported on the Company’s 2011 federal income tax return, and the Company did not make a sufficient distribution of taxable income for purposes of the REIT qualification rules (the “2011 Underreporting”).

 

The Company is able to rectify the 2011 Underreporting and avoid failing to qualify as a REIT by paying a “deficiency dividend,” which would be distributed in respect of all of our common shares pro rata and included in the Company’s deduction for dividends paid for 2011.  The amount of thesethis deficiency dividendsdividend could be as much as $2,700,000,$2.7 million, and the Company would be required to pay an interest-like penalty to the IRS based on this amount, which it has estimated to be $434,000.$405,000.  The interest-like penalty has been accrued and is included in other expense for the three monthsyear ended September 30,December 31, 2014. 

 

The Company currently intends to seekis seeking a private letter ruling (a “PLR”) from the IRS to the effect that such deficiency dividendsdividend can be satisfied via a distribution comprised, at the option of the stockholders, of either cash and/or common stock, where the cash is no less than 20% of the entire distribution.  There are no assurances that the PLR will be granted.

 

Amounts paid as deficiency dividends should generally be treated as taxable income to the Company’s shareholdersstockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the year paid, and taxable stockholders receiving such a distribution will be required to include the full amount of the deficiency dividends received as ordinary income to the extent of the Company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes, as measured at that point in 2011. As a result, stockholders may be required to pay income taxes with respect to such dividendsdividend in excess of the cash component of the deficiency dividends.

Osceola Village Contingenciesdividend.

 

In connection with the acquisition financing on Osceola Village, the Company through its subsidiary, granted a lender a profit participation in the Osceola Village property equal to 25% of the net profits received by the Company upon the sale of the property (the “Profit Participation Payment”). Net profits are calculated as (1) the gross proceeds received by the Company upon a sale of the property in an arms-length transaction at market rates to third parties; less (2) the sum of (a) principal repaid to the lender out of such sales proceeds at the time of such sale; (b) all bona fide closing costs and similar expenses provided that all such closing costs and similar expenses are paid to third parties, unaffiliated with the Company including, without limitation, reasonable brokerage fees and reasonable attorneys’ fees paid to third parties, unaffiliated with the Company and incurred by the Company in connection with the sale; and (c) a stipulated amount of $3,200,000. If for any reason consummation of such sale has not occurred on or before the scheduled maturity date or any earlier foreclosure of the underlying mortgage loan secured by the property, the Company shall be deemed to have sold the property as of the business day immediately preceding the mortgage loan maturity date or the filing date of the foreclosure action, whichever is applicable, for an amount equal to a stipulated sales price and shall pay the lender the Profit Participation Payment. In the event the underlying mortgage loan is prepaid, the Company shall also be required to immediately pay the Profit Participation Payment based upon a deemed sale of the property for a stipulated sales price. Based on the estimated sale price as of September 30, 2014, the Company recorded interest expense and a corresponding liability in the amount of $98,000 for management’s current estimate of potential Profit Participation Payment as of September 30, 2014.

Additionally, in connection with the acquisition financing on Osceola Village, the Company entered into a Master Lease Agreement (the “Master Lease”) with TNP SRT Osceola Village Master Lessee, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the OP (the “Master Lessee”). Pursuant to the Master Lease, TNP SRT Osceola Village leased to Master Lessee the approximately 23,000 square foot portion of Osceola Village which was not leased to third-party tenants as of the closing date (the “Premises”). The Master Lease provides that the Master Lessee will pay TNP SRT Osceola Village a monthly rent in an amount equal to $36,425, provided that such monthly amount will be reduced proportionally for each square foot of space at the Premises subsequently leased to third-party tenants pursuant to leases that are reasonably acceptable to the lender and that satisfy certain criteria set forth in the Master Lease (“Approved Leases”). The Master Lease has a seven-year term, subject to earlier expiration upon the earlier to occur of (1) the date on which all available rentable space at the Premises is leased to third-party tenants pursuant to Approved Leases; and (2) the date on which the mortgage loan is repaid in full in cash (other than as a result of a credit bid by the lender at a foreclosure sale). The Master Lessee has no right to assign or pledge the Master Lease or to sublet any part of the Premises without the prior written consent of TNP SRT Osceola Village and the lender. In connection with the acquisition of Osceola Village, TNP SRT Osceola Village obtained a mortgage (the “Osceola Loan”) from American National Insurance Company (“ANICO”). The Master Lease was assigned to ANICO pursuant to the assignment of leases and rents in favor of ANICO entered into by TNP SRT Osceola Village in connection with the Osceola Loan. Pursuant to the Master Lease, the Master Lessee acknowledges and agrees that upon any default by TNP SRT Osceola Village under any of the loan documents related to the Osceola Loan, ANICO will be entitled to enforce the assignment of the Master Lease to ANICO and replace TNP SRT Osceola Village under the Master Lease for all purposes.

Carson Plaza Contingency

In 2012, the Company pursued an acquisition commonly known as Carson Plaza and placed a non-refundable deposit of $250,000 into escrow which was expensed and included in transaction expense for the year ended December 31, 2012. The acquisition did not materialize as a result of the Company’s claim of certain undisclosed environmental conditions uncovered during due diligence. The seller disagreed with the Company’s claim and the Company filed a lawsuit seeking to recover the deposit. The lawsuit was settled in August 2013 and, as part of that settlement, the Company received $125,000 as a partial refund of the deposit which was recognized as a reduction to transaction expense in the third quarter of 2013.

Litigation Concerning TerminationAmended and Restated Share Redemption Program

The Company previously had a share redemption program that provided limited liquidity to its shareholders. The Company suspended its share redemption program effective as of Property Management AgreementsJanuary 15, 2013. During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not redeem any shares under the share redemption program.

 

On April 1, 2015, the board of directors of the Company approved the reinstatement of the share redemption program and adopted an Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program (the “Amended and Restated SRP”). Under the Amended and Restated SRP, the redemption price for shares that are redeemed due to the death or about September 9, 2013, TNP Property Manager, LLC (“TNP Property Manager”),disability of a shareholder is 100% of the Company’s former property manager, commencedmost recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date, and the Amended and Restated SRP limits redemptions upon the death of a civil actionshareholder to $2,000,000 and redemptions upon the disability of a shareholder to $1,000,000. A redemption request must be made within one year after the shareholder’s death or disability, unless such death or disability occurred between January 15, 2013 and April 1, 2015, when the share redemption program was suspended. Any shareholder whose death or disability occurred during this time period must submit their redemption request within one year after the adoption of the Amended and Restated SRP.

The Amended and Restated SRP provides that any request to redeem less than $5,000 worth of shares will be treated as a request to redeem all of the shareholder’s shares. If the Company cannot honor all redemption requests received in a given quarter, all requests, including death and disability redemptions, will be honored on a pro rata basis. If the Company does not completely satisfy a redemption request in one quarter, it will treat the unsatisfied portion as a request for redemption in the Superior Court ofnext quarter when funds are available for redemption, unless the State of California for Orange County against Glenborough and the Company.request is withdrawn. The Company was not served until October 15, 2013. The complaint relatesmay increase or decrease the amount of funding available for redemptions under the Amended and Restated SRP on ten business days’ notice to the terminationCompany’s shareholders. Shares submitted for redemption during any quarter will be redeemed by the Company on the penultimate business day of the property management agreements between TNP Property Manager and the subsidiaries of the Company that own the various real estate projects insuch quarter. The record date for the Company’s portfolioquarterly distributions has historically been and is expected to continue to be the selectionlast business day of Glenborougheach quarter; therefore, shares that are redeemed during any quarter are expected to act as the Company’s new property manager. TNP Property Manager alleges that there was no valid basis for the Company to terminate thebe redeemed prior property management agreements and that the Company is now in breach of the agreements. In addition, the TNP Property Manager accuses Glenborough of “intentional interference with economic relationship.” From the Company, TNP Property Manager seeks an award of compensatory damages in the amount of at least $5,000,000. From Glenborough, TNP Property Manager seeks an award of compensatory damages in the amount of at least $5,000,000, an award of punitive damages in an unspecified amount, and equitable relief. Glenborough has submitted a request for indemnification to the Company,record date and thus would not be eligible to receive the Company has agreed to advance Glenborough’s litigation expenses based on the Company’s obligation under the Consulting Agreement. On November 8, 2013, the Company filed a demurrer, seeking dismissal of the complaint on the grounds that the Company is not a proper defendant because it not a party to the agreements in question and that, in any event, the agreements contain mandatory arbitration provisions. On January 28, 2014, TNP Property Manager filed a notice stating that it did not oppose the demurrer but requesting leave to amend its complaint. On March 17, 2014, the Court granted the demurrer and granted TNP Property Manager leave to amend its complaint.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto and the other unaudited financial data included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on March 31, 2014,27, 2015, which we refer to herein as our “Form“2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.” As used herein, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” and “Company” refer to Strategic Realty Trust, Inc., formerly TNP Strategic Retail Trust, Inc., and, as required by context, Strategic Realty Operating Partnership, L.P., formerly TNP Strategic Retail Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (which we refer to as our “OP”) and to their subsidiaries. References to “shares” and “our common stock” refer to the shares of our common stock.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts (including any statements concerning investment objectives, other plans and objectives of management for future operations or economic performance, or assumptions or forecasts related thereto) are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements are only predictions. We caution that forward-looking statements are not guarantees. Actual events or our investments and results of operations could differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “should,” “expect,” “could,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “predict,” “potential” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology.

 

The forward-looking statements included herein are based upon our current expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions and beliefs, which involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. 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:

 

Our executive officers and certain other key real estate professionals are also officers, directors, managers, key professionals and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor. As a result, they face conflicts of interest, including conflicts created by our advisor’s compensation arrangements with us and conflicts in allocating time among us and other programs and business activities.

 

Our initial public offering has terminated and we are uncertain of our sources for funding our future capital needs. If we cannot obtain debt or equity financing on acceptable terms, our ability to continue to acquire real properties or other real estate-related assets, to fund or expand our operations and to pay distributions to our stockholders will be adversely affected.

 

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 financial obligations, including debt service and our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.

 

Our current and future investments in real estate and other real estate-related investments 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 properties could decrease. Such events would make it more difficult for us to meet our debt service obligations and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.

 

Certain of our debt obligations have variable interest rates with interest and related payments that vary with the movement of LIBOR or other indices. Increases in these indices could increase the amount of our debt payments and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.

All forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risks identified in Part I, Item 1A of our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Any of the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements included herein could be inaccurate, and undue reliance should not be placed upon on any forward-looking statements included herein. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the risk that actual results will differ materially from the expectations expressed herein will increase with the passage of time. Except as otherwise required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements made after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or any other reason. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the risks described in Part I, Item 1A of our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the inclusion of such forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the objectives and plans set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be achieved.

We own substantially all of our assets and conduct our operations through our operating partnership, of which we are the sole general partner. We also own a majority of the outstanding limited partner interests in the operating partnership.

 

On November 4, 2008, we filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)SEC for our initial public offering of up to $1,000,000,000 in shares of our common stock at $10.00 per share in our primary offering and up to $100,000,000 in shares of our common stock to our stockholders at $9.50 per share pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”). On August 7, 2009, the SEC declared our registration statement effective and we commenced our initial public offering. On February 7, 2013, we terminated our initial public offering and ceased offering shares of our common stock in our primary offering and under our distribution reinvestment plan.the DRIP.

 

From the commencement of our initial public offering through the termination of our initial public offering on February 7, 2013, we accepted subscriptions for, and issued, 10,969,714 shares of our common stock (net of share redemptions), including 391,182 shares of our common stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan,DRIP, resulting in aggregate gross offering proceeds of $108,357,000, net of redemptions.

On June 15, 2012, we filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to register a follow-on public offering of up to $900,000,000 in shares of our common stock.

For more information on our financing, see Item 2, “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” and Note 6.7. “Notes Payable” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

As part of our ongoing evaluation of the Company’s real estate portfolio, we obtained outside independent appraisals on all of the properties.  With the exception of two properties, all appraisals presented values in excess of the carrying value of such properties as of June 30, 2014.  Appraisals for our Constitution Trail and Topaz Marketplace properties reported estimated fair values that were less than the carrying value of such properties as of June 30, 2014, which is an impairment indicator under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In accordance with GAAP, we projected the estimated undiscounted cash flows before interest for these properties, assuming a strategy of holding these two properties long-term, and concluded that no impairment adjustment was necessary at June 30, 2014. Throughout the three months ended September 30, 2014, we re-evaluated the strategy and holding periods of each of the Company’s properties and determined that the holding periods for Constitution Trail and Topaz Marketplace may be significantly reduced from our previously estimated holding period. As a result, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recorded impairment losses of $2,500,000 and $1,400,000 on its investments in Constitution Trail and Topaz Marketplace, respectively, based on the properties’ excess carrying value over its appraised value at September 30, 2014. In the ordinary course of business, we continue to evaluate our strategies with respect to our properties.

The increasedecrease was primarily due to a $766,000 bankruptcy settlement payment from Fresh & Easy, a former anchor tenant at Topaz Marketplace. Fresh & Easy filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on September 30, 2013,the sale of Aurora Commons, Constitution Trail, and on July 29, 2014,Osceola Village in March 2015, and the Company received the bankruptcy settlement payment from Fresh & Easy representing the settlementsale of San Jacinto Esplanade in November 2014.

Additionally,joint venture as described in 2013, there were reductionsNote 4. “Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture” to the prior year revenue related to expense recovery billings to tenants as current management worked with tenants to collect and sometimes adjust prior balances owed for expense recoveries by reconciling amounts billed to interpretations of terms of the leases.condensed consolidated financial statements contained within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The increasedecrease was primarily attributed to repairsthe sale of Aurora Commons, Constitution Trail, and maintenance incurred at several properties duringOsceola Village in March 2015, and the sale of San Jacinto Esplanade in November 2014. The sale of the three months ended September 30, 2014 comparedproperties in March 2015 was completed in connection with the formation of the joint venture as described in Note 4. “Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture” to the same period in 2013.

The increasedecrease was primarily attributed to an increaseproxy contest and settlement costs of $626,000 incurred during the first quarter of 2014. The decrease was partially offset by $85,000 in legal and investor relations costs. The legal fees primarilycosts incurred in the first quarter of 2015 related to the pending settlement of our securities litigation and settlement concerning terminationpreviously disclosed in Part I, Item 3 of the property management agreements and the securities litigation.our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The decrease was attributed to the sale of Aurora Commons, Constitution Trail, and Osceola Village in March 2015, and the sale of San Jacinto Esplanade in November 2014, and a reduction in the amortization of lease intangibles resulting from maturing leases.

Transaction expenses

There were no transaction expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2014, and there was $4,000 credit related to a partial refund of a deposit for the three months ended September 30, 2013.

 

Interest expense

 

Interest expense decreased by $125,000$525,000 to $2,062,000$1,694,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2014March 31, 2015 compared to $2,187,000$2,219,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013.March 31, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction in interest rate resulting from the August 2014 refinancing of the KeyBank line of credit and pay down of debt resulting from the refinancingsale of the Constitution Trail debt into that line of credit.

Other expense

Other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2014 represents impairment losses recorded on our investments inAurora Commons, Constitution Trail, and Topaz Marketplace of $2,500,000Osceola Village in March 2015, and $1,400,000, respectively. In addition, a $295,000 loss resulted from the extinguishment of the Constitution Trail debt, which represents the write-off of unamortized loan fees when the debt was refinanced into the KeyBank line of credit on August 4, 2014, and a $434,000 accrual of an estimated interest-like penalty payable to the IRS related to rectifying the deficiency dividend in 2011.

Discontinued operations

Based on Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08, effective April 30, 2014, we no longer record property disposals as discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations if the disposal is considered a “non-strategic” shift in our investment objective. As a result, the operating resultssale of San Jacinto Esplanade which was placed on the market for sale in the third quarter of 2014 and does not represent a strategic shift in our investment objective, continue to be included in continuing operations on the consolidated statements of operations. The loss from discontinued operations of $95,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2014 was due to residual adjustments to receivables on properties that were previously sold and recorded as discontinued operations. The $5,851,000 loss for the same period in 2013 primarily represented the $5,404,000 associated with the Lahaina Gateway property’s deed in lieu of foreclosure, as well as the operating results related to Lahaina Gateway, Craig Promenade, Willow Run, and Visalia Marketplace.November 2014.

Our results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, are not necessarily indicative of those expected in future periods.

Revenue

Revenues increased by $549,000 to $16,325,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $15,776,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to a $766,000 bankruptcy settlement payment from Fresh & Easy, a former anchor tenant at Topaz Marketplace.

Operating and maintenance expenses

Operating and maintenance expenses decreased slightly by $185,000 to $5,856,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $6,041,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to a $647,000 reduction in bad debt expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, partially offset by an increase in repair and maintenance costs of $467,000.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses were $3,333,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $3,493,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, a decrease of $160,000. The costs savings were recognized in overhead and asset management, directors’ compensation, and audit costs totaling $1,300,000. These reductions were mainly due to the successful completion of the transition to our new Advisor and property manager in August 2013. Savings in these categories were partially offset by costs related to the proxy contest and settlement with the shareholder coalition of $540,000 and an increase of $566,000 in legal costs incurred primarily related to the litigation and settlement concerning termination of the property management agreements with an affiliate of the Prior Advisor and the securities litigation.

Depreciation and amortization expenses

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by $612,000 to $5,969,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $6,581,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

The decrease was primarily due to proceeds from the sales of Craig Promenade, Willow Run and Visalia Marketplace used to reduce the principal on the KeyBank line of credit in excess of the debt allocated to those properties and the amortization of principal on our other notes payable balances. In addition, the refinancing of the KeyBank line of credit on August 4, 2014 resulted in a decrease in the variable interest rate from 5.50% to 3.157%, as of September 30, 2014. Additionally, the refinancing of the Constitution Trail debt into that line of credit resulted in a decrease in our weighted average interest rate on $16 million of secured debt from 9.04% to 3.157%.

The 2013 loss was primarily the result of the $5,404,000 loss on the Lahaina Gateway’s deed in lieuconsolidated statements of foreclosure transaction completed in August 2013. In addition, the discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 included the full operating results related to Waianae Mall, Lahaina Gateway, Craig Promenade, Willow Run, and Visalia Marketplace. Discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 only included one partial month of operations for Visalia Marketplace and residual expenses related to previously sold properties.

Since our inception, our principal demand for funds has been for the acquisition of real estate, the payment of operating expenses and interest on our outstanding indebtedness and the payment of distributions to our stockholders. On February 7, 2013, we ceased offering shares of our common stock in our primary offering and under our distribution reinvestment plan.DRIP. As a result of the termination of our initial public offering, offering proceeds from the sale of our securities are not currently available to fund our cash needs. We also expect

On March 11, 2015, we completed the sale of three of our properties for an aggregate gross sales price of $53.6 million and utilized the net proceeds to reduce our debt and establish a joint venture with an affiliate of Oaktree Capital Management L.P., a well-respected and leading global alternative investment activitymanagement firm. In addition, the net proceeds will be significantly reduced until we are ableallow us to identifyinvest in other sourcesreal estate and reinstate the death and qualifying disability component of equity capital or other significant sources of financing. Due to the decrease in our capital resources, we suspended our share redemption program including redemptionsat the end of the second quarter 2015 (see “—Subsequent Events”below for death and disability, effective asadditional information regarding the reinstatement of January 15, 2013. We intend to reevaluate our ability to resume share redemptions pursuant to our share redemption program after addressing our liquidity issues.and the adoption of an Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program).

 

As of September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, our cash and cash equivalents were $3,261,000 and$3,965,000and our restricted cash (funds held by the lenders for property taxes, insurance, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, capital expenditures, rollover reserves and other financing needs) was $6,128,000.$6,159,000. For properties with such lender reserves, we may draw upon such reserves to fund the specific needs for which the funds were established.

 

On April 1, 2013, we entered into a forbearance agreement relating to our original credit facility with KeyBank (the “Forbearance Agreement”), and on July 31, 2013, we entered into an amendment to the Forbearance Agreement with KeyBank which extended the forbearance period to January 31, 2014. On December 11, 2013, we entered into a second amendment to the Forbearance Agreement which further extended the term of the forbearance period to July 31, 2014, and on July 31, 2014, KeyBank agreed to extend the forbearance period under the Forbearance Agreement to August 14, 2014. On August 4, 2014, we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Facility and resolved the forbearance issue relating to the original KeyBank credit facility (see “—KeyBank Amended and Restated Credit Facility Agreement” below for additional information).

Our aggregate borrowings, secured and unsecured, are reviewed by our board of directors at least quarterly. Under our Articles of Amendment and Restatement, as amended, which we refer to as our “charter,” we are prohibited from borrowing in excess of 300% of the value of our net assets. Net assets for purposes of this calculation is defined to be our total assets (other than intangibles), valued at cost prior to deducting depreciation, reserves for bad debts and other non-cash reserves, less total liabilities. The preceding calculation is generally expected to approximate 75% of the aggregate cost of our assets before non-cash reserves and depreciation. However, we may temporarily borrow in excess of these amounts if such excess is approved by a majority of the independent directors and disclosed to stockholders in our next quarterly report, along with an explanation for such excess. As of September 30, 2014 and DecemberMarch 31, 2013,2015, our borrowings did not exceed 300% of the value of our net assets.

Short-term Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our principal short-term demand for funds is for the payment of operating expenses and the payment of principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness. To date, our cash needs for operations have been covered from cash provided by property operations, the sales of properties and the sale of shares of our common stock. Due to the termination of our initial public offering on February 7, 2013, we may fund our short-term operating cash needs from operations, from the sales of properties and from debt. On September 18, 2014,March 25, 2015, we declared a quarterly distribution to stockholders totaling $684,000, and we will continue to evaluate the amount of future quarterly distributions based on our operational cash needs.

 

Long-term Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

On a long-term basis, our principal demand for funds will be for real estate and real estate-related investments and the payment of acquisition-related expenses, operating expenses, distributions to stockholders, future redemptions of shares (currently suspended)(suspended through April 1, 2015) and interest and principal payments on current and future indebtedness. Generally, we intend to meet cash needs for items other than acquisitions and acquisition-related expenses from our cash flow from operations, debt and sales of properties. Until the termination of our initial public offering on February 7, 2013, our cash needs for acquisitions were satisfied from the net proceeds of the public offering and from debt financings. On a long-term basis, we expect that substantially all cash generated from operations will be used to pay distributions to our stockholders after satisfying our operating expenses including interest and principal payments. We may consider future public offerings or private placements of equity. See Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” and Note 8.7. “Notes Payable” to our consolidated financial statements included in our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information on the maturity dates and terms of our outstanding indebtedness.

KeyBank Amended and Restated Credit Facility Agreement

 

On August 4, 2014,In connection with the Company entered into ansale of the retail shopping center development located in Normal, Illinois commonly known as Constitution Trail (“Constitution Trail”) and the multitenant retail center and office property located in Aurora, Ohio commonly known as the Aurora Commons (“Aurora Commons”) to a joint venture on March 11, 2015 (see Note 4. “Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), we used a portion of the net sale proceeds to pay off the entire $19 million outstanding balance associated with the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”) with KeyBank. We intend to maintain the Amended and Restated Credit Facility for our future cash needs.

Prior to the pay off, on August 4, 2014, we entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Facility with KeyBank to amend and restate the credit facilityan original 2010 Credit Facility (defined below) in its entirety and to establish a revolving credit facility with an initial maximum aggregate commitment of $30,000,000$30 million (as adjusted, the “Facility Amount”). Subject to certain terms and conditions contained in the loan documents, the Companywe may request that the Facility Amount be increased to a maximum of $60,000,000.$60 million. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility iswas initially secured by the San Jacinto Esplanade, Aurora Commons and Constitution Trail.Trail properties.

 

The Amended and Restated Credit Facility matures on August 4, 2017. The Company hasWe have the right to prepay the Amended and Restated Credit Facility in whole at any time or in part from time to time, subject to the payment of certain expenses, costs or liabilities potentially incurred by the lenders as a result of the prepayment and subject to certain other conditions contained in the loan documents.

 

Each loan made pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility will be either a LIBOR rate loan or a base rate loan, at theour election, of the Company, plus an applicable margin, as defined. Monthly payments are interest only with the entire principal balance and all outstanding interest due at maturity. The CompanyWe will pay KeyBank an unused commitment fee, quarterly in arrears, which will accrue at 0.30% per annum if the usage under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is less than or equal to 50% of the Facility Amount, and 0.20% per annum if the usage under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is greater than 50% of the Facility Amount.

 

The Company isWe are providing a guaranty of all of its obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility and all other loan documents in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. The CompanyWe also paid Glenborough a financing coordination fee of $300,000 in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Facility.

 

On August 4, 2014, as required by the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the OP contributed 100% of its sole membership interest in SRT Constitution Trail, LLC, which ownsowned the Constitution Trail property, to SRT Secured Holdings LLC (“Secured Holdings”) (the “Constitution Transaction”). for additional membership interests in Secured Holdings. At the time, Secured Holdings iswas jointly owned by the OP and SRT Secured Holdings Manager, LLC (“SRT Manager”), an affiliate of Glenborough. Prior to the Constitution Transaction, the OP owned 88% of the membership interests in Secured Holdings and SRT Manager owned 12% of the membership interests in Secured Holdings. Following the Constitution Transaction, the OP ownsowned 91.67% of the membership interests in Secured Holdings, and SRT Manager ownsowned 8.33% of the membership interests in Secured Holdings which was derived based on the fair value of the properties as of the date of the contribution. Subsequently, Secured Holdings paid SRT Manager approximately $2.1 million in full redemption of SRT Manager’s 8.33% membership interest in Secured Holdings.

 

In connection with the Constitution Transaction, the entire outstanding notenotes payable balance due to Constitution Trail’s prior lender was fully paid, and theConstitution Trail’s remaining $295,000 in unamortized deferred financing costs was written off. The new outstanding principal balance of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility was $20,800,000,$20.8 million, as of August 4, 2014.

 

The original line of credit facility was entered into on December 17, 2010 between us,the Company, through ourits subsidiary, Secured Holdings, and KeyBank (and certain other lenders, collectively, referred to as the “lenders,”“Lenders”) to establish a secured revolving credit facility with an initial maximum aggregate commitment of $35,000,000$35 million (the “2010 Credit Facility”). On August 4, 2014, the 2010 Credit Facility was replaced by the Amended and Restated Credit Facility.

UnderFacility, and there were no remaining unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the 2010 Credit Facility we were required to comply with certain restrictive and financial covenants. In January 2013, we became aware of a number of events of default under the 2010 Credit Facility relating to, among other things, our failure to use the net proceeds from our sale of our shares in our public offering and the sale of our assets to repay our borrowings under the 2010 Credit Facility and our failure to satisfy certain financial covenants under the 2010 Credit Facility, which we collectively referred to as the “existing events of default.” We also failed to comply with certain financial covenants as of March 31, 2013. Due to the existing events of default, KeyBank and the other lenders became entitled to exercise all of their rights and remedies under the 2010 Credit Facility and applicable law.

On April 1, 2013, our OP, certain subsidiaries of our OP which are borrowers under the 2010 Credit Facility (each a “Borrower” and collectively the “Borrowers”) and KeyBank, as lender and agent for the other lenders, entered into the Forbearance Agreement which amended the terms of the 2010 Credit Facility and provided for certain additional agreements with respect to the existing events of default. On July 31, 2013 and again on December 11, 2013, our OP, the Borrowers and KeyBank entered into amendments to the Forbearance Agreement which extended the forbearance period under the Forbearance Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Agreement, as amended, KeyBank and the other lenders agreed to forbear the exercise of their rights and remedies with respect to the existing events of default until the earliest to occur of (1) July 31, 2014; (2) our default under or breach of any of the representations or covenants under the Forbearance Agreement; or (3) the date any additional events of defaults (other than the existing events of default) under the 2010 Credit Facility occurred or became known to KeyBank or any other lender, which we referred to as the “forbearance expiration date.” Upon the forbearance expiration date, all forbearances, deferrals and indulgences granted by the lenders pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, as amended, automatically terminated and the lenders were entitled to enforce, without further notice of any kind, any and all rights and remedies available to them as creditors at law, in equity, or pursuant to the 2010 Credit Facility or any other agreement as a result of the existing events of default or any additional events of default which occurred or came to light following the date of the Forbearance Agreement, as amended.

The Forbearance Agreement, as amended, converted the entire outstanding principal balance under the 2010 Credit Facility, and all interest and other amounts payable under the 2010 Credit Facility, which we referred to as the “outstanding loan,” into a term loan that was due and payable in full on July 31, 2014. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, as amended, we, our OP and every other Borrower under the 2010 Credit Facility had to apply a portion of the net proceeds from, among other things, (1) the sale of our shares in our completed public offering or any other sale of securities by us, our OP or any other Borrower; (2) the sale or refinancing of any of our properties or other assets; and (3) the collection of insurance or condemnation proceeds due to any damage or destruction of our properties or any condemnation for public use of any of our properties, to the repayment of the outstanding loan. The Forbearance Agreement, as amended, provided that all commitments under the 2010 Credit Facility terminated on July 31, 2014 and that, effective as of the date of the Forbearance Agreement, as amended, the lenders had no further obligation whatsoever to advance any additional loans or amounts under the 2010 Credit Facility. The Forbearance Agreement, as amended, also provided that neither we, our OP nor any other Borrower could, without KeyBank’s prior written consent, incur, assume, guarantee or be or remain liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to any indebtedness other than the existing indebtedness specified in the Forbearance Agreement, as amended, and any refinancing of such existing indebtedness which did not materially modify the terms of such existing indebtedness in a manner adverse to us or the lenders.time.

Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement we, our OP and all of the Borrowers under the 2010 Credit Facility had jointly and severally agreed to pay to KeyBank (1) any and all out-of-pocket costs or expenses (including legal fees and disbursements) incurred or sustained by the lenders in connection with the preparation of the Forbearance Agreement and all related matters; and (2) from time to time after the occurrence of any default under the Forbearance Agreement any out-of-pocket costs or expenses (including legal fees and consulting and other similar professional fees and expenses) incurred by the lenders in connection with the preservation of or enforcement of any rights of the lenders under the Forbearance Agreement and the 2010 Credit Facility. In connection with the execution and amendment of the Forbearance Agreement, we agreed to pay a market rate loan extension fee to KeyBank.

Under the 2010 Credit Facility, while defaults existed we were not permitted to make, without the lender’s consent, certain restricted payments (as defined in the 2010 Credit Facility) which include the payment of distributions that were not required to maintain our REIT status. On December 11, 2013, the Company, our OP, the Borrowers and KeyBank entered into the second amendment to Forbearance Agreement. The second forbearance amendment amended the Forbearance Agreement and the 2010 Credit Facility as follows  (i) the lenders’ obligation to provide forbearance terminated on the first to occur of (1) July 31, 2014; (2) a default under or breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of the Forbearance Agreement; or (3) an event of default (other than the existing events of default) under the loan documents related to the 2010 Credit Facility occurring or becoming known to any lender (such date the “Forbearance Expiration Date”); (ii) the entire outstanding principal balance, and all interest thereon, of the outstanding Tranche A loans under the 2010 Credit Facility became due and payable in full on July 31, 2014, instead of January 31, 2014; (iii) the Company, the OP and the Borrowers were required to apply 80%, as opposed to 100%, of the net proceeds received from specified capital events, including a sale or refinancing of the Company’s properties, to Tranche A loans, unless an event of default, other than the existing events of default, occurs, in which case they had to apply 100% of the net proceeds to Tranche A loans; and (iv) the Company, the OP and the Borrowers were permitted to pay distributions, provided that the aggregate amount of such distributions did not exceed 100% of the Company’s Adjusted Funds from Operations (on a trailing 12-month basis commencing on April 1, 2013), as defined in the 2010 Credit Facility.

On July 31, 2014, in connection with the negotiation of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, KeyBank agreed to extend the forbearance period under the Forbearance Agreement to August 14, 2014.

Contingencies

 

Osceola Village ContingenciesDeficiency Dividend

 

In connection withJune 2011, under TNP Strategic Retail Advisor, LLC, our prior advisor, we acquired a debt obligation (the “Distressed Debt”) for $18 million.  In October 2011, we received the acquisition financing on Osceola Village, we granted a lender a profit participation in the Osceola Village property equal to 25% of the net profits received by us upon the sale of the propertyunderlying collateral (the “Profit Participation Payment”“Collateral”). If the property has not been sold on or before the scheduled maturity date of the loan, we shall be deemed to have sold the property for an amount equal to a stipulated sales price and shall pay the lender the Profit Participation Payment. Based on management’s recent estimated price if the Osceola Village property was sold, we recorded a liability in the amount of $98,000 for the estimated Profit Participation Payment, effective September 30, 2014. See Note 12. “Commitments and Contingencies” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on the Osceola Village contingency.

Constitution Trail Contingency Expiration

In connection with the original financing of the Constitution Trail acquisition, SRT Constitution Trail, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the OP and SRT Constitution Trail Master Lessee, LLC (the “Starplex Master Lessee”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the OP, entered into a Master Lease Agreement with respect to a portionthe Distressed Debt in full settlement of Constitution Trailour debt claim (the “Starplex Master Lease”“Settlement”).  PursuantAt the time of the Settlement, we received an independent valuation of the Collateral’s fair market value (“FMV”) of $27.6 million.   The Settlement resulted in taxable income to the Starplex Master Lease, SRT Constitution Trail, LLC leased to the Starplex Master Lessee an approximately 7.78 acre parcel of land included in the Constitution Trail property, and the approximately 44,000 square foot Starplex Cinemas building located thereon (the “Starplex Premises”). The Starplex Master Lease provided that, in the event that the annual gross sales from the Starplex premises were less than $2,800,000, then thereafter the Starplex Master Lessee would pay SRT Constitution Trail LLC a monthly rentus in an amount equal to $62,424 ($749,088 annually), subjectthe FMV of the Collateral less our adjusted basis for tax purposes in the Distressed Debt.  Such income was not properly reported on our 2011 federal income tax return, and we did not make a sufficient distribution of taxable income for purposes of the REIT qualification rules (the “2011 Underreporting”).

We are able to rectify the 2011 Underreporting and avoid failing to qualify as a REIT by paying a “deficiency dividend,” which would be distributed in respect of all of our common shares pro rata and included in our  deduction for dividends paid for 2011.  The amount of this deficiency dividend could be as much as $2.7 million, and we would be required to pay an offsetinterest-like penalty to the IRS based on any minimum annual rentthis amount, which we have estimated to be $405,000.  The interest-like penalty has been accrued and is included in other expense for the Starplex premises received by SRT Constitution Trail LLC. In connection withyear ended December 31, 2014.  

We are seeking a private letter ruling (a “PLR”) from the Constitution Transaction,IRS to the effect that such deficiency dividend can be satisfied via a distribution comprised, at the option of the stockholders, of either cash and/or common stock, where the cash is no less than 20% of the entire note payable wasdistribution.  There are no assurances that the PLR will be granted.

Amounts paid as deficiency dividends should generally be treated as taxable income to our stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the year paid, and taxable stockholders receiving such a distribution will be required to include the Starplex Master Lease,full amount of the deficiency dividend received as ordinary income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes, as measured at that point in 2011. As a result, stockholders may be required to pay income taxes with respect to such dividend in excess of the related contingency described above, expired.

There have been no other material changes in our enforceable and legally binding obligations, contractual obligations, and commitments from those disclosed in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.cash component of the deficiency dividend.

 

Interim Financial Information

 

The financial information as of and for the period ended September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is unaudited, but includes all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and operating results for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2014.March 31, 2015. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year; and such results may be less favorable. Our accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Guidelines on Total Operating Expenses

 

We reimburse our Advisor for some expenses paid or incurred by our Advisor in connection with the services provided to us, except that we will not reimburse our Advisor for any amount by which our total operating expenses at the end of the four preceding fiscal quarters exceed the greater of (1) 2% of our average invested assets, as defined in our charter; and (2) 25% of our net income, as defined in our charter, or the “2%/25% Guidelines” unless a majority of our independent directors determines that such excess expenses are justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors. For the twelve months ended September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, our total operating expenses did not exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines.

 

Inflation

 

The majority of our leases at our properties contain inflation protection provisions applicable to reimbursement billings for common area maintenance charges, real estate tax and insurance reimbursements on a per square foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses above a certain per square foot allowance. We expect to include similar provisions in our future tenant leases designed to protect us from the impact of inflation. Due to the generally long-term nature of these leases, annual rent increases, as well as rents received from acquired leases, may not be sufficient to cover inflation and rent may be below market rates.

 

REIT Compliance

 

To qualify as a REIT for tax purposes, we are required to annually distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders. We must also meet certain asset and income tests, as well as other requirements.  If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which our REIT qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to our stockholders.  See the disclosure above under “Contingencies—Deficiency Dividend” for additional information regarding our current REIT compliance.

In June 2011, under the Prior Advisor, we acquired a debt obligation (the “Distressed Debt”) for $18,000,000.  In October 2011, we received the underlying collateral (the “Collateral”) with respect to the Distressed Debt in full settlement of our debt claim (the “Settlement”).  At the time of the Settlement, we received an independent valuation of the Collateral’s fair market value (“FMV”) of $27,600,000.   The Settlement resulted in taxable income to us in an amount equal to the FMV of the Collateral less our adjusted basis for tax purposes in the Distressed Debt.  Such income was not properly reported on our 2011 federal income tax return, and we did not make a sufficient distribution of taxable income for purposes of the REIT qualification rules (the “2011 Underreporting”).

Distributions

 

We are able to rectify the 2011 Underreporting and avoid failingIn order to qualify as a REIT, by paying a “deficiency dividend,” which would be distributed in respect of allwe are required to distribute at least 90% of our common shares pro rata and included in our  deduction for dividends paid for 2011.  The amount of these deficiency dividends could be as much as $2,700,000, and we would be required to pay an interest-like penalty to the IRS based on this amount, which we have estimated to be $434,000.  The interest-like penalty has been accrued and is included in other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2014.  

We currently intend to seek a private letter ruling (a “PLR”) from the IRS to the effect that such deficiency dividends can be satisfied via a distribution comprised, at the option of the stockholders, of either cash and/or common stock, where the cash is no less than 20% of the entire distribution.  There are no assurances that the PLR will be granted.

Amounts paid as deficiency dividends should generally be treated asannual REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, to our shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the year paid, and taxable stockholders receiving such a distribution will be required to include the full amount of the deficiency dividends received as ordinary income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes, as measured at that point in 2011. As a result, stockholders may be required to pay income taxes with respect to such dividends in excess of the cash component of the deficiency dividends.

Distributions

For so long as the Company remained in default under the terms of the 2010 Credit Facility, KeyBank prohibited the payment of distributions to investors in the Company. Effective January 15, 2013, the Company announced that it would no longer be making monthly distributions. On December 9, 2013, the Company announced that it had successfully modified the 2010 Credit Facility such that the Company may re-establish distributions so long as the total amount paid does not exceed 100% of the Adjusted Funds from Operations (on a trailing 12-month basis commencing on April 1, 2013), as defined in the 2010 Credit Facility agreement and pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, there are certain restrictions on the amount of distributions that are tied to the Company’s Adjusted Funds from Operations (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility), provided, however, that the Company is not restricted from any distributions necessary in order to maintain its status as a REIT. 

As a result, on December 9, 2013 and again in March 24, 2014, the Company declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $0.05 per share on the outstanding common shares of the Company, payable to stockholders of record as of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014, which were paid on January 31, 2014 and April 30, 2014, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014, the Company declared quarterly distributions in the amount of $0.06 per share on our outstanding common shares, payable to stockholders of record as of June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014, respectively. The distributions were paid on July 30, 2014 and October 31, 2014, respectively. The Company’s board of directors will continue to evaluate the amount of future quarterly distributions based on the Company’s operational cash needs.

Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, we may pay distributions to our investors so long as the total amount paid does not exceed 100% of our Adjusted Funds from Operations (on a trailing 12-month basis commencing on April 1, 2013), provided, however, that we are not restricted from making any distributions necessary in order to maintain our status as a REIT.  The board of directors continues to evaluate our ability to make quarterly distributions based on our other operational cash needs.

Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations

 

Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or “NAREIT”, an industry trade group, has promulgated a measure known as funds from operations, or “FFO”,FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a real estate investment trust, or REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental performance measure. FFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP.

 

We calculatedefine FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as revised in February 2004, or the “White Paper”.White Paper. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property andbut including asset impairment write-downs, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO.

 

The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, especially if such assets are not adequately maintained or repaired and renovated as required by relevant circumstances and/or as requested or required by lessees for operational purposes in order to maintain the value disclosed. We believe that since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, including inflation, interest rates, the business cycle, unemployment and consumer spending, presentations of operating results for a REIT using historical accounting for depreciation may be less informative.

As a result, Historical accounting for real estate involves the use of GAAP. Any other method of accounting for real estate such as the fair value method cannot be construed to be any more accurate or relevant than the comparable methodologies of real estate valuation found in GAAP. Nevertheless, we believe that the use of FFO, together withwhich excludes the required GAAP presentations,impact of real estate-related depreciation and amortization, provides a more complete measureunderstanding of our performance to investors and to management. However,management, and when compared year over year, reflects the impact on our method of calculating FFOoperations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which may not be comparableimmediately apparent from net income. However, FFO, and MFFO, as described below, should not be construed to other REITs that do not define FFO in accordance withbe more relevant or accurate than the current NAREIT definitionGAAP methodology in calculating net income or that interpretin its applicability in evaluating our operating performance. The method utilized to evaluate the definition differently.

Changes in the accountingvalue and reporting promulgationsperformance of real estate under GAAP that were put into effect in 2009should be construed as a more relevant measure of operational performance and other changesconsidered more prominently than the non-GAAP FFO and MFFO measures and the adjustments to GAAP accounting for real estate subsequent to the establishment of NAREIT’s definition ofin calculating FFO have prompted an increase in cash-settled expenses. Items such as acquisition fees and expenses, which had previously been capitalized, are currently expensed and accounted for as operating expenses. Due to this factor and certain unique features of publicly registered, non-listed REITs, theMFFO.

The Investment Program Association, or “IPA”, an industry trade group, has standardized a measure known as modified funds from operations, or “MFFO”,MFFO, which the IPA has recommended as a supplemental measure for publicly registered non-listed REITs.REITs and which we believe to be another appropriate supplemental measure to reflect our operating performance. MFFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP, and MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate with a limited life and targeted exit strategy, as currently intended. We believe that, because MFFO excludes costs that we consider more reflective of non-operating items included in FFO, MFFO can provide, on a going-forward basis, an indication of the sustainability (that is, the capacity to continue to be maintained) of our operating performance. By providing MFFO, we believe we are presenting useful information that allows investors and analysts to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance. We also believe that MFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the non-listed REIT industry. Further, we believe MFFO is useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies.

 

OurWe define MFFO, calculation isa non-GAAP measure, consistent with the IPA’s Guideline 2010-01,Supplemental Performance Measure for Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REITs: Modified Funds from Operations (the “Practice Guideline”), issued by the IPA in November 2010. The Practice Guidelines issued in 2010 whichGuideline defines MFFO as FFO excludingfurther adjusted for the following items:items, as applicable, included in the determination of GAAP net income: acquisition fees and expenses; amounts relating to straight-line rentsdeferred rent receivables and amortization of above and below-market intangiblebelow market leases and liabilities (which are adjusted in order to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease assets and liabilities;payments); accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; non-recurring impairments of real estate-related investments;investments (i.e., infrequent or unusual, not reasonably likely to recur in the ordinary course of business); mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; non-recurring gains or losses included in net income from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan, unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting, and after adjustments for consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, with such adjustments calculated to reflect MFFO on the same basis. The accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments, non-recurring unrealized gains and losses on hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings, unrealized gains and losses resulting from consolidations, as well as other listed cash flow adjustments are adjustments made to net income in calculating the cash flows provided by operating activities and, in some cases, reflect gains or losses which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized. While we rely on our Advisor for managing interest rate, hedge and foreign exchange risk, we do not retain an outside consultant to review all of our hedging agreements. Inasmuch as interest rate hedges are not a fundamental part of our operations, we believe it is appropriate to exclude such non-recurring gains and losses in calculating MFFO, as such gains and losses are not reflective of on-going operations.

Presentations

Our MFFO calculation complies with the IPA’s Practice Guideline described above. In calculating MFFO, we exclude acquisition related expenses, amortization of FFOabove and below market leases, fair value adjustments of derivative financial instruments, deferred rent receivables and the adjustments of such items related to non-controlling interests. Under GAAP, acquisition fees and expenses are characterized as operating expenses in determining operating net income. These expenses are paid in cash by us. All paid and accrued acquisition fees and expenses have negative effects on returns to investors, the potential for future distributions, and cash flows generated by us, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of other properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property, these fees and expenses and other costs related to such property. Further, under GAAP, certain contemplated non-cash fair value and other non-cash adjustments are considered operating non-cash adjustments to net income in determining cash flow from operating activities. In addition, we view fair value adjustments of derivatives, impairment charges and gains and losses from dispositions of assets as non-recurring items or items which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized, and which are not reflective of on-going operations and are therefore typically adjusted for when assessing operating performance. In particular, we believe it is appropriate to disregard impairment charges, as this is a fair value adjustment that is largely based on market fluctuations and assessments regarding general market conditions which can change over time. An asset will only be evaluated for impairment if certain impairment indications exist and if the carrying, or book value, exceeds the total estimated undiscounted future cash flows (including net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and any other ancillary cash flows at a property or group level under GAAP) from such asset. Investors should note, however, that determinations of whether impairment charges have been incurred are based partly on anticipated operating performance, because estimated undiscounted future cash flows from a property, including estimated future net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and certain other ancillary cash flows, are taken into account in determining whether an impairment charge has been incurred. While impairment charges are excluded from the calculation of MFFO as described above, investors are cautioned that due to the fact that impairments are based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows and the relatively limited term of our operations, it could be difficult to recover any impairment charges.

Our management uses MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate MFFO in order to evaluate our performance against other public, non-listed REITs which have limited lives with short and defined acquisition periods and targeted exit strategies shortly thereafter. As noted above, MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate in this manner. We believe that our use of MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate MFFO allow us to present our performance in a manner that reflects certain characteristics that are unique to public, non-listed REITs, such as their limited life, and hence that the use of such measures is useful to investors. By excluding these expenses, the use of MFFO provides information consistent with management’s analysis of the operating performance of the properties. Additionally, fair value adjustments, which are based on the impact of current market fluctuations and underlying assessments of general market conditions, but can also result from operational factors such as rental and occupancy rates, may not be directly related or attributable to our current operating performance. By excluding such changes that may reflect anticipated and unrealized gains or losses, we believe MFFO provides useful supplemental information.

Presentation of this information is intended to provide useful information to investors as they compare the operating performance to that of other public, non-listed REITs, although it should be noted that not all public, non-listed REITs calculate FFO and MFFO the same way, so comparisons with other public, non-listed REITs may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO and MFFO are not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or income (loss) from continuing operations as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operations as an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. FFO and MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with GAAP measurements as an indication of our performance. MFFO has limitations as a performance measure where the price of a share of common stock during the offering stage was a stated value and there were no regular net asset value determinations during the offering stage and for a period thereafter. MFFO is useful in assisting management and investors in assessing the sustainability of operating performance in future operating periods, and in particular, after the offering and acquisition stages are complete and net asset value is disclosed. MFFO is not a useful measure in evaluating net asset value because impairments are taken into account in determining net asset value but not in determining MFFO.

 

We also calculatepresent MFFO, calculated as discussed above, adjusted for the non-cash amortization of deferred financing costs, and non-recurring non-cash allocations of organizational costs,default interest, penalties and fees, or “Adjusted MFFO”.adjusted MFFO. We opted to use substantial short-term and medium-term borrowings to acquire properties in advance of raising equity proceeds under our initial public offering in order to more quickly build a larger and more diversified portfolio. Non-cash interest expense represents amortization of financing costs paid to secure short-term and medium-term borrowings. GAAP requires these items to be recognized over the remaining term of the respective debt instrument, which may not correlate with the ongoing operations of our real estate portfolio. Management believes that the measure resulting from an adjustment to MFFO for non-cash interest expense provides supplemental information that allows for better comparability of reporting periods. We also believe that Adjustedadjusted MFFO is useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance after our offering and acquisition stages are completed with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies that are not as involved in significant acquisition and short-term borrowing activities. Like FFO and MFFO, Adjustedadjusted MFFO is not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or income (loss) from continuing operations as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operations as an indication of our liquidity, or as indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. Further, Adjustedadjusted MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with GAAP measurements as an indication of our performance.

 

Neither the SEC, NAREIT nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO, MFFO or Adjustedadjusted MFFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the non-listed REIT industry and in response to such standardization we may have to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO, MFFO or Adjustedadjusted MFFO accordingly.

(1)Our calculation of MFFO does not adjust for certain other non-recurring charges that do not fall within the IPA’s Practice Guideline definition of MFFO.

 

(2)GainThe (gain)/loss on disposal of assets is attributable to common shares only.

 

(3)Under GAAP, rental receipts are allocated to periods using various methodologies. This may result in income recognition that is significantly different than underlying contract terms. By adjusting for these items (to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments), MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of lease terms and debt investments, providingprovides insight on the contractual cash flows of such lease terms and debt investments, and aligns results with management’s analysis of operating performance.

 

(4)In evaluating investments in real estate, management differentiates the costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. Such information would be comparable only for non-listed REITs that have completed their acquisition activity and have other similar operating characteristics. By excluding expensed acquisition and certain disposition costs related to abandoned real estate sales, management believes MFFO provides useful supplemental information that is comparable for each type of real estate investment and is consistent with management’s analysis of the investing and operating performance of our properties. Acquisition fees and expenses include payments to our Advisor or third parties. Acquisition and disposition fees and expenses under GAAP are considered operating expenses and as expenses included in the determination of net income and income from continuing operations, both of which are performance measures under GAAP. All paid and accrued acquisition and disposition fees and expenses will have negative effects on returns to investors, the potential for future distributions, and cash flows generated by the company, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property, these fees and expenses and other costs related to the property.
(5)Under GAAP, certain intangibles are accounted for at cost and reviewed at least annually for impairment, and certain intangibles are assumed to diminish predictably in value over time and amortized, similar to depreciation and amortization of other real estate-related assets that are excluded from FFO. However, because real estate values and market lease rates historically rise or fall with market conditions, management believes that by excluding charges relating to amortization of these intangibles, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the performance of the real estate.

 

(6)(5)Relates toWe exclude the impact of discrete non-operating transactions and other events which we do not consider representative of the comparable operating results of our core business platform, or real estate operating portfolio. This item includes the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs as a result of refinancing and incremental interest due to early extinguishment of debt. By excluding these items, management believes that MFFO provides supplemental information related to sustainable operations that will be more comparable between other reporting periods and to other real estate operators.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of September 30, 2014March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2013,2014, except as disclosed in Note 12.13. “Commitments and Contingencies” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial conditions, changes in financial conditions, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our condensed 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 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other than the early adoption of Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08,Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant, and Equipment (see Note 2. “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), there has been no significant changes to our accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

Subsequent Events

Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program

We previously had a share redemption program that provided limited liquidity to our shareholders. We suspended our share redemption program effective as of January 15, 2013. During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, we did not redeem any shares under the share redemption program.

On April 1, 2015, our board of directors approved the reinstatement of the share redemption program and adopted an Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program (the “Amended and Restated SRP”). Under the Amended and Restated SRP, the redemption price for shares that are redeemed due to the death or disability of a shareholder is 100% of our most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date, and the Amended and Restated SRP limits redemptions upon the death of a shareholder to $2,000,000 and redemptions upon the disability of a shareholder to $1,000,000. A redemption request must be made within one year after the shareholder’s death or disability, unless such death or disability occurred between January 15, 2013 and April 1, 2015, when the share redemption program was suspended. Any shareholder whose death or disability occurred during this time period must submit their redemption request within one year after the adoption of the Amended and Restated SRP.

The Amended and Restated SRP provides that any request to redeem less than $5,000 worth of shares will be treated as a request to redeem all of the shareholder’s shares. If we cannot honor all redemption requests received in a given quarter, all requests, including death and disability redemptions, will be honored on a pro rata basis. If we do not completely satisfy a redemption request in one quarter, we will treat the unsatisfied portion as a request for redemption in the next quarter when funds are available for redemption, unless the request is withdrawn. We may increase or decrease the amount of funding available for redemptions under the Amended and Restated SRP on ten business days’ notice to our shareholders. Shares submitted for redemption during any quarter will be redeemed by us on the penultimate business day of such quarter. The record date for our quarterly distributions has historically been and is expected to continue to be the last business day of each quarter; therefore, shares that are redeemed during any quarter are expected to be redeemed prior to the record date and thus would not be eligible to receive the distribution declared for such quarter.

The other material terms of the Amended and Restated SRP are consistent with the terms of the share redemption program that was in effect immediately prior to January 15, 2013.

Litigation Concerning Termination of Property Management Agreements

On or about September 9, 2013, TNP Property Manager, LLC (“TNP Property Manager”), the Company’s former property manager, commenced a civil action in the Superior Court of the State of California for Orange County against Glenborough and the Company. The Company was not served until October 15, 2013. The complaint relates to the termination by the Company of the property management agreements between TNP Property Manager and the subsidiaries of the Company that own the various real estate projects in the Company’s portfolio and the selection of Glenborough to act as the Company’s new property manager. TNP Property Manager alleges that there was no valid basis for the Company to terminate the prior property management agreements and that the Company is now in breach of the agreements. In addition, the TNP Property Manager accuses Glenborough of “intentional interference with economic relationship.” From the Company, TNP Property Manager seeks an award of compensatory damages in the amount of at least $5,000,000. From Glenborough, TNP Property Manager seeks an award of compensatory damages in the amount of at least $5,000,000, an award of punitive damages in an unspecified amount, and equitable relief. Glenborough has submitted a request for indemnification to the Company, and the Company has agreed to advance Glenborough’s litigation expenses based on the Company’s obligation under the Consulting Agreement. On November 8, 2013, the Company filed a demurrer, seeking dismissal of the complaint on the grounds that the Company is not a proper defendant because it not a party to the agreements in question and that, in any event, the agreements contain mandatory arbitration provisions. On January 28, 2014, TNP Property Manager filed a notice stating that it did not oppose the demurrer but requesting leave to amend its complaint. On March 17, 2014, the Court granted the demurrer and granted TNP Property Manager leave to amend its complaint. On April 9, 2014, rather than amend its complaint, TNP Property Manager dismissed the action as against the Company.

The terms of the settlement are confidential except for disclosures required by the securities laws.
