(Unaudited)

As used in these notes to consolidated financial statements, tabular amounts are presented in thousands, except share amounts, percentage data and dates.

Note 1—Organization and Description of Business

Brookfield DTLA Fund Office Trust Investor Inc. (“Brookfield DTLA” or the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation and was incorporated on April 19, 2013. Brookfield DTLA was formed for the purpose of consummating the transactions contemplated in the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of April 24, 2013, as amended, and the issuance of shares of 7.625% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A preferred stock”) in connection with the acquisition of MPG Office Trust, Inc. and MPG Office, L.P. (together, “MPG”). Brookfield DTLA is a direct subsidiary of Brookfield DTLA Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DTLA Holdings”, and together with its affiliates excluding the Company and its subsidiaries, the “Manager”). DTLA Holdings is an indirect partially‑owned subsidiary of Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (“BPY”), an exempted limited partnership under the Laws of Bermuda, which in turn is the flagship commercial property entity and the primary vehicle through which Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (“BAM”), a corporation under the Laws of Canada, invests in real estate on a global basis. On April 1, 2021, BAM and BPY announced an agreement for BAM to acquire 100% of the limited partnership units of BPY. Assuming the acquisition is approved by BPY’s minority unitholders and other approvals and conditions are obtained and satisfied, we expect the transaction to close in the third quarter. We do not expect this transaction to have any impact to the Company.

As of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, Brookfield DTLA owned Bank of America Plaza (“BOA Plaza”), EY Plaza, Wells Fargo Center–North Tower, Wells Fargo Center–South Tower, Gas Company Tower and 777 Tower, which are Class A office properties, and FIGat7th, a retail center nestled between EY Plaza and 777 Tower. Additionally, Brookfield DTLA Fund Properties II LLC (“Fund II”) has a noncontrolling interest in an unconsolidated real estate joint venture with Brookfield DTLA FP IV Holdings LLC (“DTLA FP IV Holdings or “Fund IV”), a wholly‑owned subsidiary of DTLA Holdings, which owns 755 South Figueroa, a residential development property. All of these properties are located in the Los Angeles Central Business District (the “LACBD”).

Brookfield DTLA primarily receives its income primarily from lease income, including tenant reimbursements, generated from the operations of its office and retail properties, and to a lesser extent, revenue from its parking garages.

Note 2—Basis of Presentation

As used in these consolidated financial statements and related notes, unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “Brookfield DTLA,” the “Company,” “us,” “we” and “our” refer to Brookfield DTLA Fund Office Trust Investor Inc. together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10‑Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only those of a normal and recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and interim results of Brookfield DTLA as of and for the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full fiscal year.

The consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 20192020 include the accounts of Brookfield DTLA and subsidiaries in which it has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, and for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and 2019.2020.

The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 20192020 has been derived from Brookfield DTLA’s audited financial statements; however, the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Brookfield DTLA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 26, 2020.25, 2021.

Determination of Controlling Financial Interest

We consolidate entities in which Brookfield DTLA is considered to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) or has a majority of the voting interest in the entity. We are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We do not consolidate entities in which the other parties have substantive kick-out rights to remove the Company’s power to direct the activities, and most significantly impacting the economic performance, of the VIE. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary, we consider factors such as ownership interest, management representation, authority to control decisions, and contractual and substantive participating rights of each party.

Brookfield DTLA Fund Properties II LLC. The Company earns a return through an indirect investment in Fund II. DTLA Holdings, the parent of Brookfield DTLA, owns all of the common interest in Fund II. Brookfield DTLA has an indirect preferred stock interest in Fund II and its wholly-owned subsidiary is the managing member of Fund II. The Company determined that Fund II is a VIE. As a result of having the power to direct the significant activities of Fund II that impact Fund II’s economic performance, and the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, Fund II that could potentially be significant to the Fund II, Brookfield DTLA meets the two conditions for being the primary beneficiary of Fund II.

We consolidate entities through which we conduct substantially all of our business, and own, directly and through subsidiaries, substantially all of our assets. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, these consolidated VIEs had in aggregate total consolidated assets of $2.8$2.7 billion (of which $2.5$2.4 billion is related to investments in real estate) and total consolidated liabilities of $2.4 billion (of which $2.2$2.3 billion is related to non-recourse debt secured by our office and retail properties). The Company is obligated to repay substantially all of the liabilities of our consolidated VIEs, except for the non-recourse secured debt.

Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Joint Venture. Fund II has a noncontrolling interest in a joint venture, Brookfield DTLA Fund Properties IV LLC (“Fund IV”), with DTLA FP IV Holdings. The Company determined that the joint venture is a VIE mainly because its equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance the joint venture’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. While the joint venture meets the definition of a VIE, Brookfield DTLA is not its primary beneficiary as the Company lacks the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities that most significantly impact the joint venture’s economic performance. Therefore, the Company accounts for its ownership interest in the joint venture under the equity method. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company’s ownership interest in the joint venture was 49.1%43.7%, a decrease from 55.8%47.8% as of December 31, 20192020 as a result of additional capital contributed by DTLA FP IV Holdings to the joint venture during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

The liabilities of the joint venture may only be settled using the assets of 755 South Figueroa and are not recourse to the Company. Brookfield DTLA’s exposure to its investment in the joint venture is limited to its investment balance and the Company has no obligation to make future contributions to the joint venture. Pursuant to the operating agreement of the joint venture, DTLA FP IV Holdings may be required to fund additional amounts for the development of 755 South Figueroa, routine operating costs, and guaranties or commitments of the joint venture.

Impact of COVID-19

Prior to the end of the first quarter of 2020, there was a global outbreak of a new strain of Coronavirus (“COVID-19”COVID-19) which prompted certain responses from global government authorities.and businesses to take unprecedented measures in response. Many states, including California where our properties are located, have implemented “stay-at-home” restrictions to help combat the spread of COVID-19. The State of California order includes the shutdown of all nonessential services, such as dine-in restaurants, bars, gyms and conference or convention centers, and other businesses not deemed to support critical infrastructure (the “Shutdown”Shutdown). Essential services, such as grocery stores, pharmacies, gas stations, food banks, convenience stores and delivery restaurants, were allowed to remain open. Consequently, business activities and supply chains were interrupted; travel was disrupted; there has been significant volatility in financial markets, resulting in a general decline in equity prices, increased interest spreads, and lower interest rates; and local, regional, national and international economic conditions as well as the labor markets, were adversely impacted. Although the State of California began easing the “stay-at-home” restrictions and reopening non-essential businesses later in the second quarter, the physical occupancy of our properties remained low. In July 2020, the State of California announced a new COVID-19 order that significantly rolled back the State’s reopening plan.

OurDuring the first quarter of 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to combat the spread of the pandemic has continued to impact numerous aspects of our business and our properties, which are located in the City of Los Angeles, have been adversely affected as a result of the Shutdown and the preventive measures taken to combat the spread of the pandemic.Angeles. Some of the effects include the following:

Higher-risk activities and businesses such as indoor dining, bars, fitness centers and movie theaters are prohibited statewide in California. As a result, our tenants in FIGat7th, which include retail shops, restaurants and a big box gym, are experiencing the most immediate impact of the Shutdown on their businesses. Due to the uncertainties posed to our tenants in FIGat7th by the COVID-19 pandemic, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company recognized adjustments of $1.7$0.5 million and $3.1 million, respectively, to lower our lease income related to certain leases where we determined that the collection of future lease payments was not probable.

While our office properties have remained open during the Shutdown, most of our office tenants have been working remotely since the “stay-at-home” order was issued and many continue to do so. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, most of our office tenants have been current in paying amounts due to us under their leases. However, they could face increased difficulty in meeting their lease obligations if prolonged mitigation efforts and the cost of social distancing modifications materially impact their businesses. Due to the uncertainties posed to our office property tenants by the COVID-19 pandemic, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company recognized adjustments of $0.9$0.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively, to lower our lease income related to certain leases where we determined that the collection of future lease payments was not probable.

Parking net operating income, which represents parking revenue less parking expenses, declined by $2.7 million or 43% from $6.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $3.6 million during the same period in 2021, as a result of the Shutdown that impacted the physical occupancy of both our office and retail properties.

Decline in property values resulting from lower than anticipated revenues due to reduced increases in forecasted rental rates on new or renewal leases, applied credit losses, lower leasing velocity and reductions in projected leasing of available space. While the carrying values of the properties are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation, we estimate the undiscounted cashflows and fair values of the properties as part of our impairment review of investments in real estate.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it considers to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the impact of events such as the Shutdown. For example, estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to the fair value of assets and liabilities for purposes of the contribution of the Company’s wholly-owned interests in exchange for its noncontrolling interest in its unconsolidated real estate joint venture in May 2019, the useful lives of assets, recoverable amounts of receivables, impairment of long-lived assets and the fair value of debt. Actual results could ultimately differ from such estimates.

Impairment Review

Investments in long-lived assets, including our investments in real estate, are reviewed for impairment quarterly or if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the long-lived assets might not be recoverable, which is referred to as a “triggering event” or an “impairment indicator.” The carrying amount of long-lived assets to be held and used is deemed not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Triggering events or impairment indicators for long-lived assets to be held and used are assessed by property and include significant fluctuations in estimated net operating income, changes in occupancy, significant near-term lease expirations, current and historical operating and/or cash flow losses, rental rates, and other market factors. The impact of the Shutdown on economic and market conditions, together with many of our office property tenants working from home, was deemed to be a triggering event during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

When conducting the impairment review of our investments in real estate, we assessed the expected undiscounted cash flows based upon numerous factors, including the impact of the Shutdown. These factors include, but are not limited to, the credit quality of our tenants, available market information, known trends, current market/economic conditions that may affect the asset, and historical and forecasted financial and operating information relating to the property, such as net operating income, occupancy statistics, vacancy projections, renewal percentage, and rent collection rates. If the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by a property are less than its carrying amount, the Company determines the fair value of the property and an impairment loss would be recorded to write down the carrying amount of such property to its fair value. Based on its review, management concluded that 0ne of Brookfield DTLA’s real estate properties were impaired as of September 30,March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

The Company’s investment in its unconsolidated real estate joint venture is also reviewed for impairment quarterly or if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of our investment might not be recoverable using similar criteria as its investments in real estate. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the carrying amount of an investment compared to its estimated fair value. Impairment analyses are based on current plans, intended holding periods and information available at the time the analyses are prepared. Based on its review, management concluded that Brookfield DTLA’s investment in its unconsolidated real estate joint venture was 0t impaired as of September 30,March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Our future results may continue to be impacted by risks associated with the Shutdown and the related global reduction in services, investments, commerce, travel, and substantial volatility in stock markets worldwide, which may result in a decrease in our cash flows and a potential increase in impairment losses and/or revaluations of our investments in real estate and unconsolidated real estate joint venture.

Rents, Deferred Rents and Other Receivables

Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases, Brookfield DTLA must assess on an individual lease basis whether it is probable that the Company will collect the future lease payments throughout the term of the lease. The Company considers the tenant’s payment history and current credit status when assessing collectibility. If the collectibility of the lease payments is probable at lease commencement, the Company recognizes lease income over the term of the lease on a straight-line basis. During the term of the lease, Brookfield DTLA monitors the credit quality and any related material changes of our tenants by (i) reviewing financial statements of the tenants that are publicly available or that are required to be delivered to us pursuant to the applicable lease, (ii) monitoring news reports regarding our tenants and their respective businesses, including the impact of the Shutdown on the tenant’s business, (iii) monitoring the tenant’s payment history and current credit status, and (iv) analyzing current economic trends, including the impact of the Shutdown on the tenant’s business.trends. When collectibility is not deemed probable at the lease commencement date, the Company’s lease income is constrained to the lesser of (i) the income that would have been recognized if collection were probable, or (ii) the lease payments that have been collected from the lessee. If the collectibility assessment changes to probable after the lease commencement date, any difference between the lease income that would have been recognized if collectibility had always been assessed as probable and the lease income recognized to date is recognized as a current-period adjustment to lease income. If the collectibility assessment changes to not probable after the lease commencement date, lease income is reversed to the extent that the lease payments that have been collected from the lessee are less than the lease income recognized to date. Changes to the collectibility of operating leases are recorded as adjustments to lease income in the consolidated statements of operations. During the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, as the result of our assessment of the collectibility of amounts due under leases with our tenants, the Company recognized a reduction in lease income totaling $2.7 million$665 thousand and $5.1 million, respectively, of which $0.3 million and $1.1 million related to lease income from an affiliate of the Company,$41 thousand, respectively.

Some of our tenants have availed themselves of various federal and state relief funds, such as the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and the Paycheck Protection Program, which can be utilized to partially meet rental obligations.

Note 3—Recently Issued Accounting Literature

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

There have been no new accounting pronouncements adopted during thethree months ended March 31, 2021.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016,March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13,2020-04, Financial Instruments–Credit LossesReference Rate Reform (Topic 326)848): MeasurementFacilitation of Credit Lossesthe Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial InstrumentsReporting, which provides accounting relief from the future impact of the cessation of LIBOR by, among other things, providing optional expedients to treat contract modifications resulting from such reference rate reform as a continuation of the existing contract and for hedging relationships to not be de-designated resulting from such changes provided certain criteria are met. The guidance is effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and we may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, to amend the accounting for credit losses for certain financial instruments. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes its estimate of expected credit losses as an allowance, which the FASB believes will result in more timely recognition of such losses. In November 2018, the FASB released ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments–Credit Losses. This amendment clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not withinrefines the scope of Subtopic 326-20. Instead, impairmentASC Topic 848, Reference Rate Reform, and clarifies some of its guidance as part of the FASB’s ongoing monitoring of global reference rate reform activities. ASU 2021-01 permits entities to elect certain optional expedients and exceptions when accounting for derivative contracts and certain hedging relationships affected by changes in the interest rates used for discounting cash flows, computing variation margin settlements, and calculating price alignment interest in connection with reference rate reform activities under way in global financial markets. ASU 2021-01 became effective upon issuance and may be applied on a full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020 or prospectively for contract modifications made on or before December 31, 2022. The Company’s variable debt and interest rate cap contracts currently reference LIBOR. The Company is currently in the process of identifying its LIBOR-based contracts that will be impacted by the cessation of LIBOR, incorporating fallback language in negotiated contracts and incorporating non-LIBOR reference rate and/or fallback language in new contracts to prepare for these changes. Notwithstanding these efforts, the Company expects to utilize the optional expedients provided by ASU 2020-04 for debt contracts left unmodified. In addition, balances of interest rate cap contracts were de minimis and the Company does not use hedge accounting for these contracts. As such, we do not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-04 and 2021-01 to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2020, the FASB issued a staff question-and-answer document (“Q&A”) to clarify whether lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic require the application of the lease modification guidance under ASC Topic 842, Leases. Under Topic 842, the Company would have to determine, on a lease-by-lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated within the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). As discussed in the Q&A, the FASB staff believes that it would be acceptable for entities to make an election to account for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic consistent with how those concessions would be accounted for under Topic 842 as though enforceable rights and obligations for those concessions existed (regardless of whether those enforceable rights and obligations for the concessions explicitly exist in the contract). If the concessions are directly related to the effects of COVID-19, and result in revised cash flows that are substantially the same or less than the original lease contracts, entities are allowed to bypass the lease-by-lease analysis, and instead elect to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. To provide relief for tenants whose operations and businesses were disrupted by the Shutdown, the Company agreed to defer rent due from certain tenants for certain periods. For these tenants, the Company elected to account for the lease concessions as if they were part of the enforceable rights rather than as a modification. For leases that the Company granted a lease deferral concession, the Company recognized a receivable until the rental payment is received from the lessee at the deferred payment date. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reported an increase to rents receivables of $0.2 million as a direct impact of rent deferral concessions granted to our tenants.

EY Plaza—Gas Company Tower—

On September 23, 2020,February 5, 2021, Brookfield DTLA refinanced the mortgage and mezzanineits Gas Company Tower secured loans. The original $450.0 million secured loans were replaced with secured by the EY Plaza office property and received net proceeds totaling $297.9loans of $465.0 million, of which $265.0 million was used to repay the mortgage and mezzanine loans that previously encumbered the property with original maturity date on November 27, 2020. Out of the remaining net proceeds of $32.9 million, $12.4 million is intended for funding general corporate expenses, $20.5 million was deposited into a cash account held by the lenders as reserve fund to satisfy various outstanding lease-related obligations (such as free rent or rent abatements, discounted or free parking rent and leasing costs) that existed as of the closing date.

The new $305.0 million loan is comprised of a $275.0$350.0 million mortgage loan, a $30.0$65.0 million mezzanine loan and a $50.0 million mezzanine loan, each of which bears interest at variable rates equal to LIBOR plus 2.857%1.89%, 5.00% and 6.85%7.75%, respectively, requires the paymentrespectively.

A voluntary prepayment of the mortgage or mezzanine loans requires a simultaneous pro-rata prepayment of all loans encumbering this property. Brookfield DTLA has 3 options to extend the loans maturity dates of the mortgage and mezzanine loans, each for a period of one year each, as long as the maturity date of the mezzanine loanloans is extended when the maturity date ofsimultaneously with the mortgage loan, is extended.

Non-Recourse Carve Out Guarantees

All of our secured debt is subject to “non-recourse carve out” guarantees that expire upon elimination of the underlying loan obligations. In connection with all of these loans, Brookfield DTLA entered into “non-recourse carve out” guarantees, which provide for these otherwise non-recourse loans to become partially or fully recourse against DTLA Holdings, if certain triggering events (as defined in the loan agreements) occur.

London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) Transition

The chief executive of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), which regulates the LIBOR, previously announced that the FCA intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. In response, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred alternative to USD-LIBOR in derivatives and other financial contracts. In November 2020, the Intercontinental Exchange (“ICE”) Benchmark Administration Limited, the benchmark administrator for USD LIBOR rates, proposed extending the publication of certain commonly-used USD LIBOR settings until June 30, 2023 and the FCA issued a statement supporting such proposal. In connection with this proposal, certain U.S. banking regulators issued guidance strongly encouraging banks to generally cease entering into new contracts referencing USD LIBOR as soon as practicable and in any event by December 31, 2021. It is not possible to predict the effect of these changes, including when LIBOR will cease to be available or when there will be sufficient liquidity in the SOFR markets.

We have outstanding variable debt and interest rate cap contracts that are indexed to LIBOR. The Company is currently in the process of identifying its LIBOR-based contracts that will be impacted by the cessation of LIBOR, incorporating fallback language in negotiated contracts and incorporating non-LIBOR reference rate and/or fallback language in new contracts to prepare for these changes.

If LIBOR changes or is replaced, the interest rates on our debt which is indexed to USD-LIBOR will be determined using a different successor rate, which may adversely affect interest expense and may result in interest obligations which are more than the payments that would have been made on such debt if USD-LIBOR was available in its current form.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Brookfield DTLA uses interest rate swap and cap contracts to manage risk from fluctuations in interest rates. AtThe following table presents the inception of the contracts, Brookfield DTLA designates its interest rate swap contracts as cash flow hedges and documents the relationship of the hedge to the underlying transaction. Hedge effectiveness is assessed at inception and throughout the life of the hedge to ensure the hedge qualifies for hedge accounting. Additionally, Brookfield DTLA uses interest rate cap contracts pursuant to limit impactthe terms of changes in the LIBOR rate on certain of its debt. The Company does not use hedge accounting for these contracts.

In September 2020, in conjunction with the extinguishment of our $265.0 million loans that previously encumbered EY Plaza, the Company terminated the related LIBOR-based interest rate swap and cap contracts with notional amounts of $218.9 million and $35.0 million, respectively, and reclassified the entire loss of $1.8 million on the interest rate swap contracts from accumulated other comprehensive loss to other expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Note 12—Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and DisclosuresMeasurement, defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. The objective of fair value is to determine 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 “exit price”).

ASC Topic 820 established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three categories:
Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date.
Level 2—Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets but corroborated by market data.
Level 3—Unobservable prices that are used when little or no market data is available.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. Brookfield DTLA utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs, to the extent possible, as well as consider counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

Recurring Measurements—

The fair value of Brookfield DTLA’s interest rate swap contracts was determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analyses on the expected cash flows of the derivatives. These analyses reflect the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and use observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities.

Note 15—Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

Brookfield DTLA and its subsidiaries may be subject to pending legal proceedings and litigation incidental to its business. After consultation with legal counsel, management believes that any liability that may potentially result upon resolution of such matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or consolidated financial statements as a whole.

Concentration of Tenant Credit Risk

Credit risk arises from the possibility that tenants may be unable to fulfill their lease commitments. Brookfield DTLA’s properties are typically leased to high credit-rated tenants for lease terms ranging from five to ten years, although we also enter into some short-term as well as longer-term leases. As our entire portfolio is located in the LACBD, any specific economic changes within that location could affect our tenant base, and by extension, our profitability.

Brookfield DTLA generally does not require collateral or other security from its tenants, other than security deposits or letters of credit. Our credit risk is mitigated by the high quality of our existing tenant base, review of prospective tenants’ risk profiles prior to lease execution, and frequent monitoring of our tenant portfolio to identify problem tenants. However, since we may have a concentration of lease income from certain tenants, the inability of those tenants to make payments under their leases could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

The recent Shutdown has increased the risk in the near term of our tenants’ ability to fulfill their lease commitments. Certain tenants could declare bankruptcy or become insolvent and cease business operations as a result of prolonged mitigation efforts. See Note 2 “Basis of Presentation—Rents, Deferred Rents and Other Receivables” for a discussion of collectibility of lease income as of September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

Capital Commitments

As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company had $53.2$47.4 million in tenant-related commitments, including tenant improvements, tenant inducements and leasing commissions, which are based on executed leases. As of September 30, 2020, $11.7March 31, 2021, $11.3 million of our tenant-related commitments were expected to be paid during the remainder of 2020.2021.

Current Period Highlights

COVID-19 Update

Prior to the end of the first quarter of 2020, there was a global outbreak of a new strain of Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) which prompted government and businesses to take unprecedented measures in response. Many states, including California where our properties are located, have implemented “stay-at-home” restrictions to help combat the spread of COVID-19. The State of California order includes the shutdown of all nonessential services, such as dine-in restaurants, bars, gyms and conference or convention centers, and other businesses not deemed to support critical infrastructure (the “Shutdown”). Essential services, such as grocery stores, pharmacies, gas stations, food banks, convenience stores and delivery restaurants, were allowed to remain open. Consequently, business activities and supply chains were interrupted; travel was disrupted; and local, regional, national and international economic conditions were adversely impacted.

During the first quarter of 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to combat the spread of the pandemic has continued to impact numerous aspects of our business and our properties, which are located in the City of Los Angeles. Some of the effects include the following:

Higher-risk activities and businesses such as indoor dining, bars, fitness centers and movie theaters are prohibited statewide in California. As a result, our tenants in FIGat7th, which include retail shops, restaurants and a big box gym, are experiencing the most immediate impact of the Shutdown on their businesses. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, total lease income and parking revenue from FIGat7th represented approximately 3% of the consolidated total, compared to 4% for the same period in 2020. Due to the uncertainties posed to our tenants in FIGat7th by the COVID-19 pandemic, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized adjustments of $0.5 million to lower our lease income related to certain leases where we determined that the collection of future lease payments was not probable.

While our office properties have remained open during the Shutdown, most of our office tenants have been working remotely since the “stay-at-home” order was issued and many continue to do so. As of March 31, 2021, most of our office tenants have been current in paying amounts due to us under their leases. However, they could face increased difficulty in meeting their lease obligations if prolonged mitigation efforts and the cost of social distancing modifications materially impact their businesses. Due to the uncertainties posed to our office property tenants by the COVID-19 pandemic, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized adjustments of $0.2 million to lower our lease income related to certain leases where we determined that the collection of future lease payments was not probable.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Parking net operating income, which represents parking revenue less parking expenses, declined by $2.7 million or 43% from $6.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $3.6 million during the same period in 2021, as a result of the Shutdown that impacted the physical occupancy of both our office and retail properties.

Decline in property values resulting from lower than anticipated revenues due to reduced increases in forecasted rental rates on new or renewal leases, applied credit losses, lower leasing velocity and reductions in projected leasing of available space. While the carrying values of the properties are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation, we estimate the undiscounted cashflows and fair values of the properties as part of our impairment review of investments in real estate. See Item 1. “Financial Statements — Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Note 2 — Basis of Presentation — Impairment Review” for further discussion.

The Company received certain rent relief requests for certain periods in 2020 and 2021 from many of our retail tenants and some of our office tenants as a result of the Shutdown. Some of our tenants have availed themselves of various federal and state relief funds, such as the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and the Paycheck Protection Program, which can be utilized to partially meet rental obligations. While our tenants are required to fulfill their commitments to us under their leases, we have implemented and will continue to carefully consider temporary rent deferrals and rent abatements on a lease-by-lease basis.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
While we cannot be certain as to the duration of the impact of COVID-19, we expect impacts of COVID-19 to affect our financial results at least through 2021. The long-term impact to our business remains unknown as we are unable to accurately predict the impact COVID-19 will have due to numerous uncertainties, including the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, the impact of variants of the disease, the speed at which such vaccines are administered, and the likelihood of a resurgence of positive cases. See “Risk Factors—The Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition have been adversely affected and could in the future be materially adversely affected by the ongoing global pandemic of novel strain of the coronavirus.” in Brookfield DTLA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 25, 2021 for additional information.

Leasing Activity and Occupancy Level

The first quarter of 2021 has continued to be dominated by the COVID-19 pandemic causing significant uncertainty for most sectors, including the commercial real estate industry. Leasing activity, compared to the first quarter of 2020, decreased as a result. During the first quarter of 2021, we executed new and renewal leases totaling 35,317 square feet within our portfolio, compared to 56,644 square feet for the same period in 2020, a decrease of 38% year over year. Contractual expirations and early terminations of leases totaled 149,207 square feet in the first quarter of 2021, compared to 209,135 square feet for the same period in 2020, a decrease of 29% year over year. As a result of the negative net absorption, occupancy decreased from 80.9% in the first quarter of 2020 to 77.6% for the same period in 2021. See “Leasing Activity” for details.

Financing

In February 2021, Brookfield DTLA closed a $465.0 million interest-only debt secured by Gas Company Tower. This debt, which is scheduled to mature in February 2026, bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.95%. All the proceeds from this debt were used to pay off the original $450.0 million debt that previously encumbered the property and to satisfy the new loans’ required reserves. See “Indebtedness” for details.

Capital Improvements

The atrium development project at Wells Fargo Center was completed during the third quarter of 2020 and the construction of the food vendor spaces is ongoing with anticipated openings starting in the second and third quarter of 2021, pending any further modifications to COVID-19 mandates affecting retail openings.

In response to the Shutdown, Brookfield DTLA strategically deferred and cancelled various capital expenditure projects of lower priority since April 2020. Further, during the first quarter of 2021, expenditures for tenant improvements has continued to decline in response to decreased leasing activity. Accordingly, expenditures for real estate improvements decreased from $9.1 million in the first quarter of 2020 to $5.6 million for the same period in 2021, a decrease of $3.5 million or 38% year over year.

The amount of cash Brookfield DTLA currently generates from its operations is not sufficient to cover its operating, investing and financing activities without issuing additional debt or equity, resulting in “negative cash burn,” and there can be no assurance that the amount of Brookfield DTLA’s negative cash burn will decrease, or that it will not increase, in the future. If Brookfield DTLA’s operating cash flows and capital are not sufficient to cover its operating costs or to repay its indebtedness as it comes due, such cash would be provided by DTLA Holdings or the Companywe may issue additional debt and/or equity, including to affiliates of Brookfield DTLA, which issuances could further adversely impact the amount of funds available to Brookfield DTLA for any purpose, including for dividends or other distributions to holders of its capital stock, including the Series A preferred stock. In many cases, such securities may be issued if authorized by the board of directors of Brookfield DTLA without the approval of holders of the Series A preferred stock.

Brookfield DTLA’s primary liquidity sources and uses during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

Sources:
Cash provided by operating activities, see “Discussion of Consolidated Cash Flows — Operating Activities ;
Proceeds from additional secured debt financings, see “Indebtedness”; and
Contributions from noncontrolling interests, see “Discussion of Consolidated Cash Flows — Financing Activities.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Impact of COVID-19

Prior to the end of the first quarter, there was a global outbreak of a new strain of Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) which prompted certain responses from global government authorities. Many states, including California where our properties are located, have implemented “stay-at-home” restrictions to help combat the spread of COVID-19. The State of California order includes the shutdown of all nonessential services, such as dine-in restaurants, bars, gyms and conference or convention centers, and other businesses not deemed to support critical infrastructure (the “Shutdown”). Essential services, such as grocery stores, pharmacies, gas stations, food banks, convenience stores and delivery restaurants, were allowed to remain open. Consequently, business activities and supply chains were interrupted; travel was disrupted; there has been significant volatility in financial markets, resulting in a general decline in equity prices, increased interest spreads, and lower interest rates; and local, regional, national and international economic conditions, as well as the labor markets, were adversely impacted. Although the State of California began easing the “stay-at-home” restrictions and reopening non-essential businesses later in the second quarter, the physical occupancy of our properties remained low. In July 2020, the State of California announced a new COVID-19 order that significantly rolled back the State’s reopening plan.

Our properties, which are located in the City of Los Angeles, have been adversely affected as a result of the Shutdown and the preventive measures taken to combat the spread of the pandemic. Some of the effects include the following:

Higher-risk activities and businesses such as indoor dining, bars, fitness centers and movie theaters are prohibited statewide in California. As a result, our tenants in FIGat7th, which include retail shops, restaurants and a big box gym, are experiencing the most immediate impact of the Shutdown on their businesses. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, total lease income and parking revenue from FIGat7th represented approximately 2% and 3%, respectively, of the consolidated total, compared to 4% for the same periods in 2019. Due to the uncertainties posed to our tenants in FIGat7th by the COVID-19 pandemic, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized adjustments of $1.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively, to lower our lease income related to certain leases where we determined that the collection of future lease payments was not probable.

While our office properties have remained open during the Shutdown, most of our office tenants have been working remotely since the “stay-at-home” order was issued and many continue to do so. As of September 30, 2020, most of our office tenants have been current in paying amounts due to us under their leases. However, they could face increased difficulty in meeting their lease obligations if prolonged mitigation efforts and the cost of social distancing modifications materially impact their businesses. Due to the uncertainties posed to our office property tenants by the COVID-19 pandemic, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized adjustments of $0.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, to lower our lease income related to certain leases where we determined that the collection of future lease payments was not probable.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Decline in property values resulting from lower than anticipated revenues due to reduced increases in forecasted rental rates on new or renewal leases, applied credit losses, lower leasing velocity and reductions in projected leasing of available space.

The Company received certain rent relief and/or rent deferral requests for certain periods in 2020 from many of our retail tenants and some of our office tenants as a result of the Shutdown, of which the majority of requests related to rent deferral. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reported an increase to rents receivables of $0.2 million as a direct impact of rent deferral concessions granted to our tenants. Some of our tenants have availed themselves of various federal and state relief funds, such as the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and the Paycheck Protection Program, which can be utilized to partially meet rental obligations. While our tenants are required to fulfill their commitments to us under their leases, we have implemented and will continue to carefully consider temporary rent deferrals on a lease-by-lease basis.

As of September 30, 2020, adjusted for rent deferral concessions granted to our tenants, the Company collected substantially all amounts due from our tenants under their leases for March 2020 billings, 98% and 33% of second quarter office and retail rents, respectively, or 96% in the aggregate, 98% and 55% of third quarter office and retail rents, respectively, or 96% in the aggregate. See Item 1. “Financial Statements—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 2—Basis of Presentation—Rents, Deferred Rents and Other Receivables” for a discussion of how we assess the collectibility of amounts due under leases with our tenants, including any adjustments made to lease income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 as a result of our review.

As a result of the impact of the Shutdown, we expect our 2020 revenue and cash flows to be negatively impacted by (1) reduced parking revenue as a result of employees of our office tenants working from home, and closures or limited operations of retail stores and restaurants, (2) lower collections of amounts due under leases with our tenants, and (3) a slowdown in leasing activity for both vacant and expiring space.

In addition, see Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for a discussion about risks that the Shutdown directly or indirectly may pose to our business.

Capital Expenditures and Leasing Costs

Capital expenditures fluctuate in any given period, subject to the nature, extent and timing of improvements required to maintain Brookfield DTLA’s properties. Leasing costs also fluctuate in any given period, depending upon such factors as the type of property, the length and type of lease, the involvement of external leasing agents and overall market conditions.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Brookfield DTLA expects that capital improvements and leasing activities at its properties will require material amounts of cash for at least several years. According to our 20202021 business plan, Brookfield DTLA projects spending approximately $340.4$261.0 million over the next five years consisting of $195.1$179.0 million for tenant improvements, $75.5$70.4 million for leasing costs and $69.8$11.7 million for capital expenditures. The expected capital improvements include, but are not limited to, renovations and physical capital upgrades to Brookfield DTLA’s properties, upgrades to fire alarm, securityemergency generators and HVAC systems, and elevator upgrades.replacement of transformers. These projections are estimates and may be subject to changes per future revisions of speculative leasing plans.

After repaymentsOn February 5, 2021, Brookfield DTLA refinanced its Gas Company Tower secured loans. The original $450.0 million secured loans were replaced with secured loans of $465.0 million, comprised of a $350.0 million mortgage loan, a $65.0 million mezzanine loan and a $50.0 million mezzanine loan, each of which bears interest at variable rates equal to LIBOR plus 1.89%, 5.00% and 7.75%, respectively. The initial maturity date of these interest-only loans is February 9, 2023. The mortgage loan can be prepaid, in whole or in part, with prepayment fees (as defined in the underlying loan agreement) until February 2022 after which the loan may be repaid without prepayment fees. A voluntary prepayment of the mortgage or mezzanine loans requires a simultaneous pro-rata prepayment of all loans encumbering this property. Brookfield DTLA has three options to extend the loans maturity dates for a period of one year each, as long as the maturity date of the mezzanine loans is extended simultaneously with the mortgage loan, and no Event of Default (as defined in the underlying loan agreements) has occurred. All proceeds from the new secured loans were used to pay off the original $450.0 million encumbrance and to satisfy the new loans’ required reserves. The Company recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $4.6 million, which represented a prepayment premium and debt yield maintenance fee, in interest expense in the net proceeds received from our debt issuances amounted to approximately $32.9 million,consolidated statements of which $12.4 million is intended for funding general corporate expenses. The remaining net proceeds of approximately $20.5 million was deposited into a cash account held by the lenders as reserve fund to satisfy various outstanding lease-related obligations (such as free rent or rent abatements, discounted or free parking rent and leasing costs) that existed as of the closing date.operations.

The mortgage loan can be prepaid, in whole or in part, with prepayment fees (as defined in the underlying loan agreement), as long as the mezzanine loans are repaid on a pro rata basis with the mortgage loan, until October 2021 after which the loan may be repaid without penalty.

Non-Recourse Carve Out Guarantees

All of our secured debt is subject to “non-recourse carve out” guarantees that expire upon elimination of the underlying loan obligations. In connection with all of these loans, Brookfield DTLA entered into “non-recourse carve out” guarantees, which provide for these otherwise non-recourse loans to become partially or fully recourse against DTLA Holdings, if certain triggering events (as defined in the loan agreements) occur.

Debt Compliance

As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, Brookfield DTLA was in compliance with all material financial covenants contained in the loan agreements.

Certain loan agreements held by Brookfield DTLA contain debt yield and debt service coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, Brookfield DTLA was meeting or exceeding these financial ratios, with the exception of the loanloans secured by Wells Fargo Center—South Tower and Wells Fargo Center—North Tower that did not meet thetheir respective minimum debt yield ratio. In addition, in June 2020, a cash sweep event was triggered on the loan secured by Gas Company Tower as a certain lease space restriction was not met. Such cash sweep event ended in February 2021 upon the refinancing and repayment of the Gas Company Tower senior mortgage and mezzanine loans.

Wells Fargo Center–South Tower —

Pursuant to the terms of the Wells Fargo Center–South Tower mortgage loan agreement, effective September 2020, a cash sweep event commenced as the borrower’s debt yield ratio was under the minimum debt yield ratio. While this does not constitute an Event of Default under the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, any excess operating cash flows are currently swept to a cash account controlled by the loan administrative agent. Funds within this account shall be applied to the borrower's approved operating expenses, capital expenditures and leasing costs; property taxes and insurance; interest and any other amounts due and payable under the loan and interest rate cap contracts; and fees and expenses due to the loan administrative agent.

Wells Fargo Center–North Tower —

As of March 31, 2021, the borrower’s debt yield ratio was under the minimum debt yield ratio. While this does not constitute an Event of Default under the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, following the occurrence of such debt yield event, any excess operating cash flows are to be swept to a cash account controlled by the loan administrative agent. Funds within this account shall be applied to the borrower's approved operating expenses, capital expenditures and leasing costs; property taxes and insurance; interest and any other amounts due and payable under the loan and interest rate cap contracts; reserve accounts; and fees and expenses due to the loan administrative agent. The cash sweep has not started as of March 31, 2021.

Gas Company Tower —

Pursuant to the terms of the Gas Company Tower senior mortgage loan agreement, effective June 2020, a cash sweep event commenced upon exercise of lease contraction rights by one of the major tenants. While this is not an Event of Default, all available cash (as defined in the underlying loan agreement) is currently swept to an account managed by the lender. The lender will regularly fund operating expenses based on an approved budget, and the borrower may request the release of additional funds to cover approved leasing costs. The cash sweep event ended in February 2021 upon the refinancing and repayment of the Gas Company Tower senior mortgage and mezzanine loans.

Occupancy decreasesDecline in occupancy during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020 areMarch 31, 2021 was mainly attributable to early and contractual expirations of lease agreements. Leasing volume for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, compared to the same period in 2019,2020, is down significantly and we expectdue to the same trend forcontinued impact of the remainder of 2020.Shutdown. Many companies have paused anticipated leasing transactions while they re-direct their focus on addressing the impact of the Shutdown on their business, including protecting their employees and managing financial and operating matters. At the same time, we have ongoing interest and lease negotiations with existing tenants on lease renewals/extensions and expansion of space and continued negotiations with prospective tenants on leasing of space.In early April 2021, Los Angeles County officially moved into the less restrictive Orange Tier of the California state’s reopening framework, which dictates that movie theaters and indoor restaurants could operate at up to 50% capacity, fitness centers could operate up to 25% capacity; and bars could open for outdoor service. In early May 2021, Los Angeles County further advanced to the Yellow Tier of the California state’s reopening framework, which allows higher capacity limits at most businesses. Fitness centers, wineries and breweries, for instance, were permitted to increase indoor attendance limits to 50%; and bars were able to open indoors at 25%. Non-essential employees are able to reoccupy office space and most of our tenants are making plans to return to the office. As a result of this progress, the leasing market is starting to reflect growing positive sentiment through increased touring activity.

Net cash used in financing activitiesNet cash used in financing activities$(14,052)$(3,900)$(10,152)

Operating Activities

Brookfield DTLA’s cash flows from operating activities are primarily dependent upon (1) the occupancy level of its portfolio, (2) the rental rates achieved on its leases, (3) the collectibility of rent and other amounts billed to tenants and (4) changes in working capital. The increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily dueattributable to cash inflows from working capital changes by $13.0 million and decreases in interest payments on secured debt and operating expenses, and increases in working capital year over year,by $4.2 million. The cash inflows were partially offset by a decreasedecreases in parking revenue by $4.8 million and cash lease revenue by $3.8 million, reflecting the reduction in both contractual and physical occupancy resulting from the “stay-at-home” order implemented since March 2020.

Investing Activities

Brookfield DTLA’s cash flows from investing activities are generally impacted by the amount of capital expenditures and tenant improvement activities for its properties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company hadThe decrease in net cash used in investing activities was mainly due to decreases in capital expenditures of approximately $18.2by $5.3 million at Wells Fargo Center, mainly forfollowing the continued atrium redevelopment project. This project was complete as of September 30, 2020. Constructioncompletion of the first phase of food vendor spaces is underway with anticipated openings by the end of the first quarter of 2021. In addition, the Company spent $14.0 million for tenant improvements at BOA Plaza, Wells Fargo Center and Gas Company Tower in connection with leasing activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company spent $50.6 million for tenant improvements at BOA Plaza, EY Plaza, 777 Tower and Wells Fargo Center—North Tower in connection with lease renewals by major tenants along with continued atrium redevelopmentdevelopment project at Wells Fargo Center totaling $22.6 million. Construction activities andin the third quarter of 2020. Such decrease in cash outflows was partially offset by an increase in cash outflows for tenant improvements did not experience any significant delays due to mandates issued by $3.9 million, following the state or local ordinances arising fromsubstantial completion of tenant improvement projects for a tenant at the COVID-19 pandemic.EY Plaza.

Financing Activities

Brookfield DTLA’s cash flows from financing activities are generally impacted by its loan activity, and contributions from and distributions to its equity holders, if any. NetDuring the three months ended March 31, 2021, net proceeds from the refinancing of the loans secured by EY Plaza office property and proceeds from the Series B preferred interestGas Company Tower were the main source of cash provided by financing activities duringactivities. All proceeds from the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Duringnew secured loans were used to pay off the same period, asoriginal $450.0 million encumbrance and to satisfy the new loans’ required reserves. As Brookfield DTLA had excess cash from operating activities generated from properties, and upsized loan refinancing secured by 777 Tower and EY Plaza, it repurchased $13.5$16.2 million of the Series B preferred interest and made distributionsdistribution of $13.2$4.2 million to the Series B preferred interest. In comparison, during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, proceeds from theissuance of Series B preferred interest and Wells Fargo Center–South Tower mortgage loan, partially offset by distributions towas the Series B and senior participating preferred interests, were the primarymain source of net cash provided by financing activities.

Discussion Cash outflows were mainly driven by repurchases of Results of Operations

The full extentand distributions to Series B, using the excess cash from upsized refinancing of the impact of the Shutdown on our business, operations and financial results depends on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict. In addition, we cannot predict the impact that the Shutdown will have on our tenants, employees, contractors, lenders, suppliers, vendors and joint venture partner; any material effect on these parties could also have a material adverse effect on us. The impact of the Shutdown on our revenue,loans secured by 777 Tower in particular lease income and parking revenue for the fourth quarter of 2020 and thereafter, also cannot be determined at present. The situation surrounding COVID-19 remains fluid and we are actively managing our response in collaboration with our tenants and government officials and assessing potential impacts to our financial position and operating results, as well as potential adverse developments in our business. See October 2019.Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for a discussion about risks that COVID-19 directly or indirectly may pose to our business.

Rental Property Operating and Maintenance Expense

Rental property operating and maintenance expense decreased as our non-essential retail tenants have closed and most of our office tenants have been working remotely since the issuance of the “stay-at-home” order in March 2020. The decrease in rental property operating and maintenance expense was in line with the decrease in lease income.

Other Expense

In September 2020, in conjunction with the extinguishment of the $265.0 million mortgage and mezzanine loans secured by EY Plaza, the Company early terminated the related LIBOR-based interest rate swap and cap contracts with notional amounts of $218.9 million and $35.0 million, respectively, and reclassified the entire loss of $1.8 million on interest rate swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges from accumulated other comprehensive loss to other expense. In addition, the Company recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt and termination of interest rate swap contracts of $1.0 million in other expenses.

Interest Expense

Interest eexpense mainly represents interest expense on secured debt and loss on early extinguishment of debt. Interest expense on secured debt was $17.2 million for the three months ended xpense decreased March 31, 2021, compared to $21.6 million for the same period in 2020, primarily due to decreasedecline in weighted average LIBOR rates on our variable-rate debt from 2.22%1.46% for the three months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 to 0.18%0.14% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and refinancing of 777 Tower debt at lower interest ratessame period in October 2019, partially2021.

Rental Property Operating and Maintenance Expense

Rental property operating and maintenance expense decreased as our non-essential retail tenants have closed and most of our office tenants have been working remotely since the issuance of the “stay-at-home” order in March 2020. The decrease in rental property operating and maintenance expense was in line with the decrease in lease income.

Other Expense

As a result of the refinancing of the loans secured by EY Plaza in September 2020, Brookfield DTLA recognized a realized loss on interest rate swap contracts of $1.8 million and a loss on early extinguishment of debt and termination of interest rate swap contracts of $1.0$4.6 million to other expense. Increases in other expense were partially offset by a nonrecurring $1.0 million write-off charge of deferred costrecorded during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019.March 31, 2021 for prepayment premium and debt yield maintenance fee charged on refinancing of loans secured by Gas Company Tower in February 2021.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Depreciation and amortization expense increased primarily due to increased investments in tenant improvements and capital expenditures year over year.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased primarily due to decrease in weighted average LIBOR rates on our variable-rate debt from 2.39% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to 0.57% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and refinancing of 777 Tower debt at lower interest rates in October 2019, partially offset by an increase in debt outstanding as a result of the 777 Tower debt refinancing.

Gain from Derecognition of Assets

In May 2019, Fund II entered into an agreement to contribute and transfer all of its wholly-owned interests in Brookfield DTLA 4050/755 Inc., the indirect property owner of 755 South Figueroa, in exchange for noncontrolling interests in a new joint venture formed with Brookfield DTLA FP IV Holdings, LLC, and recognized a $15.0 million gain.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

See Part II, Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Brookfield DTLA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 26, 202025, 2021 for a discussion regarding our exposure to market risk. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since year end 2020.

Brookfield DTLA receives its income primarily from lease income generated from the operations of its office and retail properties, and to a lesser extent, revenue from its parking garages. Our properties are typically leased to high credit-rated tenants for lease terms ranging from five to ten years, although we also enter into some short-term as well as some longer-term leases. Our leases usually require the license of a minimum number of monthly parking spaces at the property and in many cases contain provisions permitting tenants to renew expiring leases at prevailing market rates.

The closure of non-essential retail tenants beginning in March 2020 negatively impacted most of our tenants at our FIGat7th property. Higher-risk activities and businesses such as indoor dining, bars, fitness centers and movie theaters are prohibited statewide in California. The main customers of our FIGat7th retail property are tourists and office workers, many of whom have not yet returned to Downtown Los Angeles. As a result, our tenants are experiencing the most immediate impact of the Shutdown on their businesses.

While our office properties have remained open during the Shutdown, most of our office tenants have been working remotely since the “stay-at-home” order was issued and many continue to do so. Our office tenants do not presently have acute difficulty in fulfilling their lease commitments in the near term. However, they could face increased difficulty if prolonged mitigation efforts materially impact their businesses.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Brookfield DTLA maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), Brookfield DTLA carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its principal executive officer and its principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Brookfield DTLA’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, G. Mark Brown, our principal executive officer, and Bryan D. Smith, our principal financial officer, concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in Brookfield DTLA’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarterthree months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or that are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal control over financial reporting due to the Shutdown. We are continually monitoring and assessing the impact of the Shutdown on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings.

Brookfield DTLA and its subsidiaries may be subject to pending legal proceedings and litigation incidental to its business. After consultation with legal counsel, management believes that any liability that may potentially result upon resolution of such matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or consolidated financial statements as a whole.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors.

Factors That May Affect Future Results
(Cautionary Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995)

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (as set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements include statements that are predictive in nature, depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, include statements regarding our operations, business, financial condition, expected financial results, performance, prospects, opportunities, priorities, targets, goals, ongoing objectives, strategies and outlook, as well as the outlook for North American and international economies for the current fiscal year and subsequent periods, and include words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “seeks,” “intends,” “targets,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “likely,” or negative versions thereof and other similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” and “could.”

Although Brookfield DTLA believes that its anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements and information are based upon reasonable assumptions and expectations, the reader should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and information because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond its control, which may cause Brookfield DTLA’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated future results, performance or achievement expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements and information.

In particular, in the near term, we expect to be impacted by the ongoing novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, which has interrupted business activities and supply chains; disrupted travel; contributed to significant volatility in the financial markets, resulting in a general decline in equity prices, increased interest spreads and lower interest rates; impacted social conditions; and adversely impacted local, regional, national and international economic conditions, as well as the labor markets.

Brookfield DTLA cautions that the foregoing list of important factors that may affect future results is not exhaustive. When relying on Brookfield DTLA’s forward-looking statements or information, investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events. Except as required by law, Brookfield DTLA undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward‑looking statements or information, whether written or oral, that may be as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

In addition to the factors discussedincluded in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk“Item IA. Risk Factors” in Brookfield DTLA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 26, 202025, 2021, the following are additional risk factors that management believes are material to Brookfield DTLA at this time. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones facing Brookfield DTLA and there may be additional matters that Brookfield DTLA is unaware of or that Brookfield DTLA considers immaterial. If any of these risks occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed, the market value of the Series A preferred stock could decline and stockholders could lose part or all of their investment.

Property Risks

Our property investments are generally subject to varying degrees of risk depending on the nature of the property. These risks include changes in general economic conditions (including the availability and costs of mortgage funds), local conditions (including an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for real estate in the markets in which we operate), the attractiveness of the properties to tenants, competition from other landlords with competitive space and our ability to provide adequate maintenance at an economical cost.

Certain significant expenditures, including property taxes, maintenance costs, mortgage payments, insurance costs and related charges, must be made regardless of whether a property is producing sufficient income to service these expenses. Brookfield DTLA currently has aggregate consolidated indebtedness totaling $2.2 billion that requires substantial debt service payments. If we become unable or unwilling to meet debt service payments on any property, losses could be sustained as a result of the lender’s exercise of its rights of foreclosure or sale. We believe the stability and long‑term nature of our contractual revenues effectively mitigates these risks. In addition, in connection with all of our secured debt, Brookfield DTLA entered into “non-recourse carve out” guarantees, which provide for these otherwise non-recourse loans to become partially or fully recourse against DTLA Holdings or one of its subsidiaries, if certain triggering events (as defined in the loan agreements) occur.

We are affected by local, regional, state, and national economic conditions and other events and occurrences that affect the market in which we own assets. As noted above, economic conditions have been impacted substantially by the Shutdown. A protracted decline in economic conditions would cause downward pressure on our operating margins and asset values as a result of lower demand for space.

Our properties are located in the Downtown Los Angeles market. A prolonged downturn in the economy of this area would result in reduced demand for space and number of prospective tenants and will affect the ability of our properties to generate significant revenue. If there is an increase in operating costs resulting from inflation and other factors, we may not be able to offset such increases by increasing rents.

Public Health Risk

Our business could be materially adversely affected by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the future outbreak of other highly infectious or contagious diseases. As a result of the rapid spread of COVID-19, many companies and various governments have imposed restrictions on business activity and travel which may continue and could expand. Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances surrounding COVID-19, it is difficult to predict how significant the impact of this coronavirus outbreak, including any responses to it, will be on the Company or for how long disruptions are likely to continue. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, rapidly evolving and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of this coronavirus and actions taken to contain COVID-19 or its impact, among others. Such developments, depending on their nature, duration, and intensity, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We operate office and retail properties in an area impacted by the Shutdown. Adverse impacts on our business may include:

A complete or partial closure of, or other operational issues at, one or more of our properties resulting from government or tenant action;

A slowdown in business activity may severely impact our tenants’ businesses, financial condition and liquidity and may cause one or more of our tenants to be unable to fund their business operations, meet their obligations to us in full, or at all, or to otherwise seek modifications of such obligations;

An increase in re-leasing timelines, potential delays in lease-up of vacant space and the market rates at which such lease will be executed;

Reduced economic activity could result in a prolonged recession, which could negatively impact consumer discretionary spending; and

Expected completion dates for our construction projects may be subject to delay as a result of local economic conditions that may continue to be disrupted as a result of the Shutdown.

    If these and potential other disruptions caused by the Shutdown continue, our business could be materially adversely affected.

Credit Risk

Credit risk arises from the possibility that tenants may be unable to fulfill their lease commitments. We mitigate this risk by ensuring that our tenant mix is diversified and by limiting our exposure to any one tenant. The recent Shutdown has increased the risk in the near term of our tenants’ ability to fulfill lease commitments, which has been materially impacted by retail store closures, quarantines and the “stay-at-home” order. Certain tenants could declare bankruptcy or become insolvent and cease business operations as a result of prolonged mitigation efforts.

The closure of non-essential retail tenants beginning in March 2020 negatively impacted most of our tenants at our FIGat7th property. Higher-risk activities and businesses such as indoor dining, bars, fitness centers and movie theaters are prohibited statewide in California. The main customers of our FIGat7th retail property are tourists and office workers, many of whom have not yet returned to Downtown Los Angeles. As a result, our tenants in FIGat7th, which include retail shops, restaurants and a big box gym, are experiencing the most immediate impact of the Shutdown on their businesses.

While our office properties have remained open during the Shutdown, most of our office tenants have been working remotely since the “stay-at-home” order was issued and many continue to do so. Our office tenants do not presently have acute difficulty in fulfilling their lease commitments in the near term. However, they could face increased difficulty if prolonged mitigation efforts materially impact their businesses.

Economic Risk

Real estate is relatively illiquid and may be even more illiquid in the context of an economic downturn that may result from the Shutdown. Such illiquidity may limit our ability to vary our portfolio promptly in response to changing economic or investment conditions. Also, financial difficulties of other property owners resulting in distressed sales could depress real estate values in the markets in which we operate. Our office properties generate a relatively stable source of income from contractual tenant lease payments. Continued growth of lease income is dependent on strong leasing markets to ensure expiring leases are renewed and new tenants are found promptly to fill vacancies. We are substantially protected against short-term market conditions, as most of our leases are long-term in nature with an average remaining term of approximately seven years as of September 30, 2020.

Interest Rate and Financing Risk

We have an on-going need to access debt markets to refinance maturing debt as it comes due. There is a risk that lenders will not refinance such maturing debt on terms and conditions acceptable to us or on any terms at all. This risk may be increased as a result of disrupted market conditions resulting from the Shutdown. Our strategy is to maintain relationships with a large number of lenders to limit exposure to any single counterparty. In addition, Brookfield DTLA uses interest rate swap and cap contracts to manage risk from fluctuations in interest rates on its variable-rate loans. The Company believes these contracts are with counterparties who are credit-worthy.

Additional material risk factors are discussed in other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Brookfield DTLA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020. Those risks are also relevant to our performance and financial condition. Moreover, we operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.
