EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 of Urban Edge Properties and Urban Edge Properties LP. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “UE” and “Urban Edge” mean Urban Edge Properties, a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”), and references to “UELP” and the “Operating Partnership” mean Urban Edge Properties LP, a Delaware limited partnership. References to the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean collectively UE, UELP and those entities/subsidiaries consolidated by UE.
UELP is the entity through which we conduct substantially all of our business and own, either directly or through subsidiaries, substantially all of our assets. UE is the sole general partner and also a limited partner of UELP. As the sole general partner of UELP, UE has exclusive control of UELP’s day-to-day management.
As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, UE owned an approximate 96.1%95.6% ownership interest in UELP. The remaining approximate 3.9%4.4% interest is owned by limited partners. The other limited partners of UELP are members of management, our Board of Trustees and contributors of property interests acquired. Under the limited partnership agreement of UELP, unitholders may present their common units of UELP for redemption at any time (subject to restrictions agreed upon at the time of issuance of the units that may restrict such right for a period of time). Upon presentation of a common unit for redemption, UELP must redeem the unit for cash equal to the then value of a share of UE’s common shares, as defined by the limited partnership agreement. In lieu of cash redemption by UELP, however, UE may elect to acquire any common units so tendered by issuing common shares of UE in exchange for the common units. If UE so elects, its common shares will be exchanged for common units on a one-for-one basis. This one-for-one exchange ratio is subject to specified adjustments to prevent dilution. UE generally expects that it will elect to issue its common shares in connection with each such presentation for redemption rather than having UELP pay cash. With each such exchange or redemption, UE’s percentage ownership in UELP will increase. In addition, whenever UE issues common shares other than to acquire common units of UELP, UE must contribute any net proceeds it receives to UELP and UELP must issue to UE an equivalent number of common units of UELP. This structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT.
The Company believes that combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of UE and UELP into this single report provides the following benefits:
enhances investors’ understanding of UE and UELP by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;
eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation because a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both UE and UELP; and
creates time and cost efficiencies throughout the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.
The Company believes it is important to understand the few differences between UE and UELP in the context of how UE and UELP operate as a consolidated company. The financial results of UELP are consolidated into the financial statements of UE. UE does not have any other significant assets, liabilities or operations, other than its investment in UELP, nor does it have employees of its own. UELP, not UE, generally executes all significant business relationships other than transactions involving the securities of UE. UELP holds substantially all of the assets of UE.UE and retains the ownership interests in the Company's joint ventures. UELP conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for the net proceeds from equity offerings by UE, which are contributed to the capital of UELP in exchange for units of limited partnership in UELP, as applicable, UELP generates all remaining capital required by the Company’s business. These sources may include working capital, net cash provided by operating activities, borrowings under the revolving credit agreement, the issuance of secured and unsecured debt and equity securities and proceeds received from the disposition of certain properties.
Shareholders’ equity, partners’ capital and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of UE and UELP. The limited partners of UELP are accounted for as partners’ capital in UELP’s financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in UE’s financial statements. The noncontrolling interests in UELP’s financial statements include the interests of unaffiliated partners in consolidated entities. The noncontrolling interests in UE’s financial statements include the same noncontrolling interests at UELP’s level and limited partners of UELP. The differences between shareholders’ equity and partners’ capital result from differences in the equity issued at UE and UELP levels.
To help investors better understand the key differences between UE and UELP, certain information for UE and UELP in this report has been separated, as set forth below: Item 1. Financial Statements (unaudited), which includes specific disclosures for UE and UELP, Note 14, Equity and Noncontrolling Interest and Note 16, Earnings Per Share and Unit.
This report also includes separate Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibits 31 and 32 certifications for each of UE and UELP in order to establish that the requisite certifications have been made and that UE and UELP are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1.ORGANIZATION
1.ORGANIZATION

Urban Edge Properties (“UE”, “Urban Edge” or the “Company”) (NYSE: UE) is a Maryland real estate investment trust focused on managing, developing, redeveloping, and acquiring retail real estate in urban communities, primarily in the New York metropolitan area. Urban Edge Properties LP (“UELP” or the “Operating Partnership”) is a Delaware limited partnership formed to serve as UE’s majority-owned partnership subsidiary and to own, through affiliates, all of the Company’s real estate properties and other assets. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Urban Edge Properties and UELP and their consolidated entities/subsidiaries.
The Operating Partnership’s capital includes general and common limited partnership interests in the operating partnership (“OP Units”). As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, Urban Edge owned approximately 96.1%95.6% of the outstanding common OP Units with the remaining limited OP Units held by members of management, Urban Edge’s Board of Trustees and contributors of property interests acquired. Urban Edge serves as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The third-party unitholders have limited rights over the Operating Partnership such that they do not have characteristics of a controlling financial interest. As such, the Operating Partnership is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and the Company is the primary beneficiary which consolidates it. The Company’s only investment is the Operating Partnership. The VIE’s assets can be used for purposes other than the settlement of the VIE’s obligations and the Company’s partnership interest is considered a majority voting interest.

As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, our portfolio consisted of 7370 shopping centers, 45 malls and a warehouse park,2 industrial parks totaling approximately 15.116.2 million square feet (“sf”)., which is inclusive of a 95% controlling interest in Walnut Creek, CA (Mt. Diablo), and an 82.5% controlling interest in Sunrise Mall, in Massapequa, NY.
2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-Q. Certain information and footnote disclosures included in our annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company and the Operating Partnership and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020.2021. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020, as filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 20192020 reflect the consolidation of wholly-owned subsidiaries and those entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, excluding the Operating Partnership, we consolidated 2 VIEs with total assets of $44.2 million and $43.6 million, respectively and total liabilities of $32.0 million and $31.5 million, respectively. The consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020 and 2019 include the consolidated accounts of the Company and the Operating Partnership. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In accordance with ASC 205 Presentation of Financial Statements, certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation.

The Company includes real estate impairment charges, and casualty losses (gains) resulting from natural disasters in Casualty and impairment loss, net on its consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 as reflected in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Refer to Note 9 and Note 10 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information regarding real estate impairment charges and casualty losses (gains), respectively.

Our primary business is the ownership, management, redevelopment, development and operation of retail shopping centers and malls. We do not distinguish our primary business or group our operations on a geographical basis for purposes of measuring performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker reviews operating and financial information for each property on an individual basis and therefore, each property represents an individual operating segment. None of our tenants accounted for more than 10% of our revenue or property operating income as of June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. We aggregate all of our properties into 1 reportable segment due to their similarities with regard to the nature and economics of the properties, tenants and operations, as well as long-term average financial performance.

3.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Real Estate Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as they are incurred. Significant renovations that improve or extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized. As real estate is undergoing redevelopment activities, all property operating expenses directly associated with and attributable to the redevelopment, including interest, are capitalized to the extent the capitalized costs of the property do not exceed the estimated fair value of the property when completed. If the cost of the redeveloped property, including the net book value of the existing property, exceeds the estimated fair value of redeveloped property, the excess is charged to impairment expense. The capitalization period begins when redevelopment activities are underway and ends when the project is substantially complete. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from one to 40 years.

Upon the acquisition of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, identified intangibles, such as acquired above and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired liabilities and we allocate the purchase price based on these assessments on a relative fair value basis. We assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions. We record acquired intangible assets (including acquired above-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired intangible liabilities (including below-market leases) at their estimated fair value. We amortize identified intangibles that have finite lives over the period they are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the property or business acquired.

Our properties are individually reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such events and changes include macroeconomic conditions, including those caused by global pandemics, like the recent coronavirus disease pandemic (“COVID-19” or the “COVID-19 pandemic”), which resulted in property operational disruption and indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis taking into account the appropriate capitalization rate in determining a future terminal value. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the property’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. Estimated fair value may be based on discounted future cash flows utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates and, in addition to available market information, third-party appraisals, broker selling estimates or sale agreements under negotiation. Impairment analyses are based on our current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared. If our estimates of the projected future cash flows change based on uncertain market conditions, our evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Tenant and Other Receivables and Changes in Collectibility Assessment — Tenant receivables include unpaid amounts billed to tenants, disputed enforceable charges and accrued revenues for future billings to tenants for property expenses. We evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and disputed enforceable charges on both a lease-by-lease and a portfolio-level, which resultedresult from the inability of tenants to make required payments under their operating lease agreements. In light of the recent and ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is closely monitoring changes in the collectibility assessment of its tenant receivables as a result of certain tenants suffering adverse financial consequences. We recognize changes in the collectibility assessment of these operating leases as adjustments to rental revenue in accordance with ASC 842 Leases. Management exercises judgment in assessing collectibility and considers payment history, current credit status and publicly available information about the financial condition of the tenant, among other factors. Tenant receivables, including receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents, are written-off directly when management deems that the collectibility of substantially all future lease payments from a specific lease is not probable offor collection, at which point, the Company will begin recognizing revenue from such leases prospectively, based on actual amounts received.

In light of the recent and ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is closely monitoring changes in the collectibility assessment of its tenant receivables as a result of disputes and certain tenants suffering adverse financial consequences and has This write-off effectively reduces cumulative non-cash rental income recognized a reserve for rental revenue deemed uncollectible. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized a write-off of $6.0 million related to receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents as a resultsince lease commencement. In addition, future revenue recognition is limited to amounts paid by the lessee. We generally reclassify tenant receivables to the accrual basis of tenants impacted by COVID-19accounting, if and recognized $12.5 million and $13.9 million, respectively, as rental revenue deemed uncollectible (classified within rental revenue) based on our assessmentwhen, collectability of the probability of collecting substantially all of the remaining rents for certain tenants.contractual lease payments is reasonably probable.

Recently Issued Accounting Literature — Effective for the fiscal period beginning January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses. In connection with the adoption of ASU 2016-03, we also adopted (i) ASU 2018-19 Codification Improvements to ASC 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, (ii) ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to ASC 326, Financial Statements - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, (iii) ASU 2019-05 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Targeted Transition Relief and (iv) ASU 2019-11 Codification Improvements to ASC 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 introduces a new


model for estimating credit losses for certain types of financial instruments and also modifies the impairment model with new methodology for estimating credits losses. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19
12


Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, which included amendments to clarify receivables arising from operating leases are within the scope ASC 842 Leases. Due to the adoption of ASC 842 on January 1, 2019, the Company includes rental revenue deemed uncollectible as a reduction to rental revenue in "Rental revenue" in the consolidated statements of income. As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company did not have any material outstanding financial instruments. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 has had no impact to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 Income Taxes (ASC 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting. ASU 2019-12 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impactadopted ASU 2019-12 mayeffective January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have toa material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In March 2020 and January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (ASC 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, and ASU 2021-01 Reference Rate Reform (ASC 848): Scopewhich provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform.reform in contracts and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. ASU 2020-04 isand ASU 2021-01 are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. We currently do not anticipate the need to modify our existing debt agreements as a result of reference rate reform in the current year, however if any modification is executed as a result of reference rate reform, the Company will elect the optional expedient available under ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01, which allows entities to account for the modification as if the modification was not substantial. We will disclose the nature of and reason for electing the optional expedient in each interim and annual financial statement period if and when applicationapplicable through December 31, 2022.

In April 2020, the FASB issued a question-and-answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) focused on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of COVID-19. Under existing lease guidance, 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 with the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q&A clarifies that entities may elect to not to evaluate whether lease-related relief, that lessors provide to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 on lessees, is a lease modification under ASC 842. Instead, when the cash flows resulting from the lease concession granted for COVID-19 rent relief are substantially the same or less than the cash flows of the original contract, an entity can thenmay elect whether to apply the modification guidance (i.e. assume the relief was always contemplated by the contract or assume the relief was not contemplated by the contract).

The FASB expectsstated that there will beare multiple ways to account for deferrals,rent concessions, none of which the FASB believes are more preferable than the others. Two of those methods are: (i) account for the concessions as if no changes to the lease contract were made; under that accounting, a lessor would continue to increase its lease receivable and continue to recognize income, referred to as the (“receivable“receivable approach”); or (ii) account for the deferred payments or abatements as variable lease payments; under that accounting, a lessor would recognize the payment as income in profit or loss in the period in which the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occurred, referred to as the (“variable“variable approach”).

The Company is evaluating its election on a disaggregated basis, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. As of August 4, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company granted rent deferrals with an aggregate deferral amount of $0.7$8.2 million, with $0.5$5.2 million accounted for under the receivable approach by electing the Lease Modification Q&A and $0.2$3.0 million accounted for as modifications due to term extensions of the leases. The Company also granted abatements with an aggregate abatement amount of $0.1$6.7 million as of August 4, 2020, which wereMarch 31, 2021, $1.0 million accounted for under the variable approach and are not considered$5.7 million accounted for as modifications by electingdue to the Lease Modification Q&A.executed agreements including other rental term modifications, such as term extensions and substantial changes in cash flows. The Company remains in active discussions with its impacted tenants to grant further concessions. The full future impact of the Lease Modification Q&A is dependent upon the extent of lease concessions granted to tenants as a result of COVID-19 and the elections made by the Company at the time of entering into such concessions. Refer to Note 10 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

(1) The total purchase price for the properties acquired during the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2020 includes $2.5 million of transaction costs incurred related to the acquisitions.

On February 12, 2020, the Company acquired Kingswood Center and Kingswood Crossing for $167.3 million, including transaction costs. The properties are located along Kings Highway in the Midwood neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY and were funded via 1031 exchanges using cash proceeds from dispositions. Additionally, as part of the acquisition of Kingswood Center, the Company assumed a $65.5 million mortgage, which matures in 2028.

A portion of the acquisition of Kingswood Crossing was completed as a reverse Section 1031 like-kind exchange. We entered into a reverse Section 1031 like-kind exchange agreement with third-party intermediaries, which, for a maximum of 180 days, allowed us to defer for tax purposes, gains on the sale of other properties identified and sold within the period. Until the earlier of the termination of the exchange agreements or 180 days after the respective acquisition dates, the third-party intermediaries are the legal owner of the properties; however, we controlled the activities that most significantly impact each property and retained all of the economic benefits and risks associated with each property. Therefore, at the date of acquisition, we determined that we were the primary beneficiary of these variable interest entities and consolidated the properties and their operations as of the acquisition date.

The aggregate purchase price of the above property acquisitions has been allocated as follows:

Revolving Credit Agreement
On January 15, 2015, we entered into a $500 million Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with certain financial institutions. On March 7, 2017, we amended and extended the Agreement. The amendment increasedAgreement to increase the credit facility size by $100 million to $600 million and extended the maturity date to March 7, 2021, with 2 six-month extension options. On July 29, 2019, we entered into a second amendment to the Agreement to extend the maturity date to January 29, 2024, with 2 six-month extension options.

In March 2020, the Company borrowed $250 million under the Agreement. As of June 30, 2020, $350 million of credit remained available to be drawn. Financing costs associated with executing the Agreement of $3.9 million and $3.9 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, are included in deferred financing costs, net in the consolidated balance sheets.

On June 3, 2020, we entered into a third amendment to the Agreement. The third amendment,Agreement, which among other things, modifies certain definitions and the measurement period for certain financial covenants to a trailing four-quarter period instead of the most recent quarter period annualized. Company borrowings under the Agreement are subject to interest at LIBOR plus 1.05% to 1.50% and an annual facility fee of 15 to 30 basis points. Both the spread over LIBOR and the facility fee are based on our current leverage ratio and are subject to increase if our leverage ratio increases above predefined thresholds. The Agreement contains customary financial covenants including a maximum leverage ratio of 60% and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.5x.

As a result of the transaction, we recognized a net gain on extinguishment of debt of $34.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, comprised of the forgiven $30 million junior loan plus accrued interest of $5.4 million, offset by the write-off of $0.4 million of unamortized deferred financing fees and $0.1 million of transaction costs, incurred.net in the consolidated balance sheets.

Irrespective of whether Kmart vacates or stops paying rent, the guarantee amortizes commensurate with the loan amortization schedule and will reduce to zero in approximately six years.

Mortgage on Las Catalinas Mall

In February 2021, Kmart announced that it would be closing the store related to such lease, but it is not yet evident whether the lease will be terminated or amended. No triggering events have occurred that would require the release of the guarantee and the tenant has lease obligations through 2023. The guarantee would be released should certain financial metrics at Montehiedra be achieved even if the Kmart box remains vacant. The guarantee is reduced commensurate with the loan amortization schedule and will reduce to zero in approximately six years based on the scheduled amortization.

9.     FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
 
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures 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 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs 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. In determining fair value, we utilize 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 our assessment of fair value.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring or Non-Recurring Basis
There were no financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020.

Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value
Financial assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets include cash and cash equivalents and mortgages payable and unsecured credit facility borrowings.payable. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The fair valuesvalue of our mortgages payable and unsecured credit facility borrowings areis calculated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk-adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit ratings, which are provided by a third-party specialist. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is classified as


Level 1 and the fair values of mortgages payable and unsecured credit facility borrowings areis classified as Level 2. The table below summarizes the carrying amounts and fair value of these financial instruments as of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020.

Nonfinancial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
We assess the carrying value of our properties for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Such events and changes include macroeconomic conditions, including those caused by global pandemics, such as COVID-19, which may result in property operational disruption and indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
No impairment charges were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized impairment charges of $18.7 million on 2 retail properties that the Company intended to market and sell. The impairment loss was calculated as the difference between the assets’ individual carrying values and the estimated aggregated fair values of $28.5 million, less estimated selling costs. We also recognized a $4.0 million impairment charge on an additional property during the three months ended March 31, 2019 as a result of the loss of a significant tenant at the property. The valuation of these properties were based on comparable sale transactions in the properties’ surrounding areas. The Company believes the inputs utilized to measure the fair values were reasonable in the context of applicable market conditions, however due to the significance of the unobservable inputs in the overall fair value measures, including market conditions and expectations for growth, the Company determined that such fair value measurements are classified as Level 3. The impairment charges are included as an expense within casualty and impairment loss, net on our consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.2021 or March 31, 2020.

10.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
There are various legal actions against us in the ordinary course of business. After consultation with legal counsel, we have concluded that the outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Redevelopment
As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we had approximately $94.7$121.1 million of active development, redevelopment and anchor repositioning projects under way, of which $55.8$81.7 million remains to be funded. Further, while we have approximately $300 million ofidentified future projects in our development pipeline, we are under no obligation to execute and fund any of these projects and each of these projects is being reevaluated considering market conditions. The Company has updated many of its active project stabilization dates to reflect the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on its contractors, tenants and vendors.

Insurance 
The Company maintains (i) general liability insurance with limits of $200 million for properties in the U.S.Company’s primary and Puerto Rico, (ii) all-risk property insurance with limits of $500 million per occurrence and in the aggregate for properties in the U.S. and $147 million for properties in Puerto Rico, subject to the terms, conditions, exclusions, deductibles and sub-limits when applicable for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes, (iii) pollution insurance with limits of $50 million for properties in the U.S. and Puerto Rico and (iv) numerous otherexcess insurance policies including trustees’ and officers’ insurance, cyber, workers’ compensation and automobile-related liabilities insurance. The Company’s insurance includes coverage for acts of terrorism but excludes coverage for nuclear, biological, chemical or radiological terrorism events as defined by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act, which expires in December 2020. The Company’s coverage for certain cybersecurity losses provides first and third-party coverage including network interruption, event management, cyber extortion and claims for media content, security and privacy liability.


The Company’sproviding coverage for pollution related losses provides certainhave an aggregate limit of $50 million and provide remediation and business interruption coverage for specified pollution incidents, which includespursuant to our policies expressly include the presence and dispersal of viruses. TheOn December 23, 2020, the Company has filed insurance claims relatedinitiated litigation in New Jersey state court, Bergen County, under these policies to recover uncollected rents and other amounts resulting from the COVID-19 and is pursuing available coverage.virus.
Insurance premiums are typically charged directly to each of the retail properties and warehouses but not all of the cost of such premiums are recovered. The Company is responsible for deductibles, losses in excess of insurance coverage, and the portion of premiums not reimbursable by tenants at our properties, which could be material.
We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of available coverage. We cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future and expect premiums across most coverage lines to increase in light of recent events. The incurrence of uninsured losses, costs or uncovered premiums could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
19


Certain of our loans and other agreements contain customary covenants requiring the maintenance of insurance coverage. Although we believe that we currently have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. If lenders or other counterparties insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, such requirement could materially and adversely affect our ability to finance our properties and expand our portfolio.

Environmental Matters
Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. Based on these assessments, we have accrued costs of $1.0 million and $2.7$1.8 million on our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2020both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019, respectively,2020, for remediation costs for environmental contamination at certain properties. While this accrual reflects our best estimates of the potential costs of remediation at these properties, there can be no assurance that the actual costs will not exceed these amounts. Although we are not aware of any other material environmental contamination, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites, or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant costs to us.

Tornado-Related Charges
On June 13, 2018, a tornado hit our shopping center in Wilkes-Barre, PA, damaging approximately 13% of the property’s gross leasable area. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company settled the related insurance claim with its carrier for $5.5 million. Of this amount, the Company recognized $4.8 million as a casualty gain in the three months ended June 30, 2019. As part of the settlement, the Company recognized $0.2 million and $0.3 million as business interruption proceeds within rental revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

Hurricane-Related Charges
On September 20, 2017, Hurricane Maria made landfall, damaging our two properties in Puerto Rico. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company reached a settlement agreement with its carrier regarding its final insurance recovery related to Hurricane Maria for $14.3 million, of which $3.3 million was previously received, subject to deductibles of $2.3 million. We recognized an $8.7 million casualty gain in the second quarter of 2019 as a result of the remaining insurance proceeds from the settlement agreement for our two malls in Puerto Rico.

Pandemic-Related Contingencies
On January 30, 2020, the spread of the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern by the World Health Organization ("WHO"). On March 11, 2020, WHO characterized the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic. During and subsequent to the second quarter,Since March, the continually evolving COVID-19 pandemic impacted our tenants and business operations. The Company has taken precautions to protect the safety, health and well-being of its employees and tenants.
The Company has concentratedMany of our tenants have faced adverse financial consequences from reduced business operations inand social distancing requirements resulting from the New York metropolitan area and, although local and state governments implemented various phased reopening plans for nonessential businesses in June and July, the extent and magnitude of the pandemic’s impact to our operations was heightened during the second quarter due to mandated closures caused by the virus.COVID-19 pandemic. As of August 4, 2020, 94%March 31, 2021, substantially all of our portfolio's gross leasable area was open for business and the Company collected approximately 72%93% of second quarter rental revenue billed and 73%for the first quarter of July rental revenue billed. As of August 4,2021. Since the pandemic was declared in 2020, the Company has granted rent concessions and other lease-related relief, such as rent deferrals, with an aggregateto certain impacted tenants. We evaluate rent relief requests on a case-by-case basis and not all requests are granted. Rent relief, deferral amountor abatements and tenant defaults on lease obligations, such as repayment of $0.7deferred rent may have a negative impact on our rental revenue and net income. As of March 31, 2021, the Company executed rent deferrals aggregating $8.2 million andwith a weighted average payback period of approximately seven18 months. Additionally, as of August 4, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company grantedexecuted rent abatements with an aggregate abatement amount of $0.1aggregating $6.7 million.
The Company currently remains in active discussions and negotiations with its impacted tenants and anticipates granting further rent concessions or other lease-related relief, such as the deferral of lease payments for a period of time to be paid over the remaining


term of the lease. As of August 4, 2020, tenants representing approximately 49% of total annualized base rent had submitted requests for rent relief. We are evaluating rent relief requests on a case-by-case basis, however not all requests for rent relief may be granted. The Company is not currently aware of any other loss contingencies related to the COVID-19 pandemic that would require recognition at this time, with the exception of abatements already discussed with tenants.

The Company is closely monitoring changes in the collectibility assessment of itstenants or tenant receivables as a result of certain tenants suffering adverse financial consequences due to COVID-19. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized a write-off of $6.0 million related to receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents as a result of tenants impacted by COVID-19 and recognized $12.5 million and $13.9 million, respectively, as rental revenue deemed uncollectible (classified within rental revenue) based on our assessment of the probability of collecting substantially all of the remaining rents for certain tenants.that may not be collected.

Bankruptcies
Although our rental revenue is supported by long-term leases, leases may be rejected in a bankruptcy proceeding and the related tenant stores may permanently vacate prior to lease expiration. In the event a tenant with a significant number of leases or square footage in our shopping centers files for bankruptcy and rejects its leases with us, we could experience a reduction in our revenues. We monitor the operating performance and rent collections of all tenants in our shopping centers, especially those tenants in arrears or operating retail formats that are experiencing significant changes in competition, business practice, or store closings in other locations.

Given the economic environment brought upon by COVID-19, certain tenants underwentexperienced liquidity or financial hardships and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection insince the second quarter.pandemic was declared. Although some of these tenants intend to exit the Chapter 11 bankruptcy process and resume operations, the outcomes of such proceedings are unknown and the Company is currently exploring leasing alternatives for these spaces. Specifically, 24 Hour Fitness USA, Inc. (“24 Hour Fitness”) filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on June 15, 2020. Prior to vacating, the Company had one lease with 24 Hour Fitness in Paramus, NJ comprising approximately 54,000 sf, which generated $3.1 million in annual rental revenue. In connection with the bankruptcy, the Company recognized a write-off of $3.5 million of receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents and recognized $0.8 million as rental revenue deemed uncollectible (classified within rental revenue) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

20202021 Long-Term Incentive Plan

On February 20, 2020,10, 2021, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Trustees of the Company approved the Company’s 20202021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“20202021 LTI Plan”). The Plan is a multi-year, equity compensation program under which participants, including our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, have the opportunity to earn awards in the form of LTIP units that vest based on (i) the passage of time (one-third of the fair value(one-half of the program) and (ii) performance goals tied to our relative and absolute total shareholder return (“TSR”) during the three-year performance period following their grant (two-thirds of the fair value(one-half of the program). The total grant date fair value under the 20202021 LTI Plan was $8.8$7.8 million comprising both performance-based and time-based awards.awards as described further below:

Performance-based awards
For the performance-based awards under the 2021 LTI Plan, participants, have the opportunity to earn awards in the form of LTIP Units if Urban Edge’s absolute and/or relative TSR meets certain criteria over the three-year performance measurement period (the “Performance Period”) beginning on February 10, 2021 and ending on February 9, 2024. The Company granted performance-based awards under the 2021 LTI Plan that represent 398,977 LTIP Units. The fair value of the performance-based award portion of the 2021 LTI Plan on the date of grant was $3.9 million using a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the fair value through a risk-neutral premise.
Under the Absolute TSR component, 40% of the LTIP Units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period
is equal to 18%, 100% of the LTIP Units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to 27%, and 165% of the LTIP Units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to or greater than 36%. The Relative TSR component is based on the Company’s performance compared to a peer group comprised of 16 companies. Under the Relative TSR Component, 40% of the LTIP Units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to the 35th percentile of the peer group, 100% of the LTIP Units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to the 55th percentile of the peer group, and 165% of the LTIP Units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to or above the 75th percentile of the peer group, with earning determined using linear interpolation if in between such relative and absolute TSR thresholds.

Time-based awards
The time-based awards granted under the 2021 LTI Plan, also granted in the form of LTIP Units, vest ratably over three years except in the case of our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, where the vesting is ratably over four years. As of March 31, 2021, the Company granted time-based awards under the 2021 LTI Plan that represent 273,615 LTIP units with a grant date fair value of $3.9 million.

Urban Edge Earnings per Share
We have calculated earnings per share (“EPS”) under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation methodology whereby EPS for each class of Urban Edge common shares and participating securities is calculated according to dividends declared and participating rights in undistributed earnings. Restricted shares issued pursuant to our share-based compensation program are considered participating securities, and as such have non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends.

Property operating expenses include: real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, management expenses, insurance and utilities; general and administrative expenses include payroll, professional fees, information technology, office expenses and other administrative expenses; and interest and debt expense primarily consists of interest on our mortgage debt.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use NOI internally to make investment and capital allocation decisions and to compare the unlevered performance of our properties to our peers. Further, we believe NOI is useful to investors as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to NOI is net income. NOI excludes certain components from net income in order to provide results that are more closely related to a property’s results of operations. We calculate NOI by adjusting net income to add back depreciation and amortization expense, general and administrative expenses, casualty and real estate impairment losses, interest and debt expense, income tax expense and non-cash lease expense, and deduct management and development fee income from non-owned properties, gains on sale of real estate, interest income, non-cash rental income resulting from the straight-lining of rents and amortization of acquired below market leases net of above market leases. NOI should not be considered a substitute for net income and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by others. The Company has historically defined this metric as "Cash NOI." There have been no changes to the calculation of this metric. However, the Company has decided to refer to this metric as "NOI" instead of "Cash NOI" to further clarify that, consistent with the definition of this metric, the revenue and expenses reflected in this metric include some accrued amounts and are not limited to amounts for which the Company actually received or made cash payment during the applicable period.

We calculate same-property NOI using net income as defined by GAAP reflecting only those income and expense items that are reflected in NOI (as described above) and excluding properties that were under development, redevelopment or that involve anchor repositioning where a substantial portion of the gross leasable area is taken out of service, and also excludes properties acquired or sold during the periods being compared. We also exclude for the following items in calculating same-property NOI: lease termination fees, bankruptcy settlement income, and income and expenses that we do not believe are representative of ongoing operating results, if any. As such, same-property NOI assists in eliminating disparities in net income due to the development, redevelopment, acquisition or disposition of properties during the periods presented, and thus provides a more consistent performance measure for the comparison of the operating performance of the Company’s properties, which the Company believes to be useful to investors. Same-property NOI should not be considered a substitute for net income and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by others. The Company has historically defined this metric as "same-property Cash NOI." There have been no changes to the calculation of this metric.

Throughout this section, we have provided certain information on a “same-property” cash basis which includes the results of operations that were owned and operated for the entirety of the reporting periods being compared, which totaling 73 properties 71 properties for thethree and six months ended June 30, 2020 March 31, 2021 and 2019, respectively.2020. Information provided on a same-property basis excludes properties that were under development, redevelopment or that involve anchor repositioning where a substantial portion of the gross leasable area is taken out of service and also excludes properties acquired or sold during the periods being compared. While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, a property is removed from the same-property pool when a property is considered to be a redevelopment property because it is undergoing significant renovation or retenanting pursuant to a formal plan and is expected to have a significant impact on property operating income based on the retenanting that is occurring. A development or redevelopment property is moved back to the same-property pool once a substantial portion of the NOI growth expected from the development or redevelopment is reflected in both the current and comparable prior year period, generally one year after at least 80% of the expected NOI from the project is realized on a cash basis. Acquisitions are moved into the same-property pool once we have owned the property for the entirety of the comparable periods and the property is not under significant development or redevelopment.

We calculate same-property NOI using net income as defined by GAAP reflecting only those income and expense items that are reflected in NOI, adjusted for the following items: lease termination fees, bankruptcy settlement income, and income and expenses that we do not believe are representative of ongoing operating results, if any. The Company has historically defined this metric as "same-property Cash NOI." There have been no changes to the calculation of this metric.

The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to NOI is net income.

Funds From Operations
FFO was $55.7$31.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 compared to $57.6$34.8 million for the three June 30, 2019. FFO was $90.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $94.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020.
We calculate FFO in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ (‘‘Nareit’’(“Nareit”) definition. Nareit defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable real estate and land when connected to the main business of a REIT, impairments on depreciable real estate or land related to a REIT's main business, and rental property depreciation and amortization expense. We believe FFO is a meaningful non-GAAP financial measure useful in comparing our levered operating performance from period to period both internally and among our peers because this non-GAAP measure excludes net gains on sales of depreciable real estate, real estate impairment losses, rental property depreciation and amortization expense which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time rather than fluctuating based on market conditions. We believe the presentation of comparable period operating results generated from FFO provides useful information to investors because the definition excludes items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating and financial performance, such as depreciation and amortization related to real estate, and items which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating and financial performance more difficult, such as gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable real estate and land when connected to the main business of a REIT and impairments on depreciable real estate or land related to a REIT's main business. FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance, and is not indicative of cash flow as a measure of liquidity or our ability to make cash distributions. FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by others.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Due to the nature of our business, the cash generated from operations is primarily paid to our shareholders and unitholders of the Operating Partnership in the form of distributions. Our status as a REIT requires that we generally distribute at least 90% of our REIT’s ordinary taxable income each year. Our Board of Trustees declared a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per common share and OP unit for the first quarter of 2021, or an annual rate of $0.60. Historically, we have paid regular cash dividends; however, the timing, declaration, amount and payment of distributions to shareholders and unitholders of the Operating Partnership fall within the discretion of our Board of Trustees. Our Board of Trustees’ decisions regarding the payment of dividends depends on many factors, such as maintaining our REIT status, our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements, debt service obligations, limitations under our financing arrangements, industry practice, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic and other factors.
Our Board of Trustees declared a quarterly dividend of $0.22 per common share and OP unit for the first quarter of 2020. As a result of COVID-19 and the future uncertainties it has generated, the Company has temporarily suspended quarterly dividend distributions and did not declare a quarterly dividend for the second quarter of 2020. The Company’s Board of Trustees will continue to monitor the Company’s financial performance and economic outlook and, at a later date, intends to reinstate a regular quarterly dividend of at least the amount required to continue qualifying as a REIT for US federal income tax purposes.
Property rental income is our primary source of cash flow and is dependent on a number of factors, including our occupancy level and rental rates, as well as our tenants’ ability to pay rent. Our properties have historically provided us with a relatively consistent stream of cash flow that enables us to pay operating expenses, debt service and recurring capital expenditures. As discussed in more detail below, the effects ofThe COVID-19 and the actions taken to minimize its spread havepandemic has had an adverse impact on our short-term cash flow as a significant numberby negatively impacting our tenants’ ability to pay rent. As of our tenants have not paid rent that was due inApril 29, 2021, the Company collected 95% of rental revenue for the first quarter of 2021, compared with 95%, 90% and 82% for the fourth, third and second quarter and July of 2020, and such efforts could have arespectively. We continue to monitor significant longer term adverse impactimpacts on our cash flow and financial condition. Specifically, as of August 4, 2020,condition related to the Company collected approximately 72% of second quarter rental revenue billed and 73% of July rental revenue billed.COVID-19 pandemic. Other sources of liquidity to fund cash requirements include proceeds from financings, equity offerings and asset sales.
Our short-term liquiditycash requirements consist of normal recurring operating expenses, lease obligations, regular debt service requirements, recurring expenditures (general & administrative expenses), expenditures related to leasing activity and distributions to shareholders and unitholders of the Operating Partnership. Our long-term capital requirements consist primarily of maturities under our long-term debt agreements, development and redevelopment costs and potential acquisitions.
At June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, of $639.8$377 million and $350no amounts drawn on our $600 million available under our line of credit:revolving credit agreement, which matures on January 29, 2024.

The Company continues to monitor the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our overall liquidity position and outlook. The ultimate impact that COVID-19 may have on our operational and financial performance over the next 12 months is currently uncertain and will depend on certain developments,many factors, including among others,without limitation, its magnitude and duration and the adverse financial impact of COVID-19 on our tenants and the magnitude and duration of the pandemic, including its impact on store closingfrom reduced business operations and social distancing rulesrequirements, which may impact a tenant’stenants’ ability to generate sales at sufficient levels to cover operating costs. In light of the various uncertainties resulting from COVID-19, the Company borrowed $250 million under its existing $600 million revolving credit agreement in March 2020costs such as a precautionary measure to increase the Company's cash position and facilitate financial flexibility. We currently have $350 million remaining under our revolving credit agreement.rent. Our ability to retain our outstanding borrowings and utilize remaining amounts available under our revolving credit facility in the future will depend on our continued compliance with the applicable financial covenants and other terms of our revolving credit agreement, which may be impacted by tenant store closures and failure of tenants to pay rent. The proceeds are available to use for working capital and other corporate purposes if the Company experiences a material decrease in cash flow from property rental income as operational disruptions may persist into the future. We have no debt scheduled to mature until the second quarter of 2022. We currently believe that together with our cash on hand, available revolving credit agreement and general ability to access the capital markets, these resources willshould be sufficient to finance our operations and fund our debt service requirements and capital expenditures over the next 12 months.

The net carrying amount of real estate collateralizing the above indebtedness amounted to approximately $1.3 billion as of June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. Our mortgage loans contain covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness on these properties and in certain circumstances, require lender approval of tenant leases and/or yield maintenance upon repayment prior to maturity. As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we were in compliance with all debt covenants with the exception of those related to our mortgage loan on Las Catalinas Mall. The mortgage on Las Catalinas Mall has been in default since April 2020.covenants.

On January 15, 2015, we entered into a $500 million Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with certain financial institutions. On March 7, 2017, we amended and extended the Agreement. The amendment increased the credit facility size by $100 million to $600 million and extended the maturity date to March 7, 2021 with two six-month extension options. On July 29, 2019, we entered into a second amendment to the Agreement to extend the maturity date to January 29, 2024 with two six-month extension options. Company borrowings under the Agreement are subject to interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.05% to 1.50% and an annual facility fee of 15 to 30 basis points. Both the spread over LIBOR and the facility fee are based on our current leverage ratio and are subject to increase if our leverage ratio increases above predefined thresholds. The Agreement contains customary financial covenants including a maximum leverage ratio of 60% and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.5x. No amounts had been drawn under the Agreement as of March 31, 2021.

On June 3, 2020, we entered into a third amendmentamended the Agreement to, the Agreement. The third amendment, among other things, modifiesmodify certain definitions and the measurement period for certain financial covenants to a trailing four-quarter period instead of the most recent quarter period annualized. Under the Agreement, our financial covenants are generally measured using operating results of a trailing four-quarter period from the prior trailing four-quarter period, including the maximum leverage ratio, which measures our asset value based on net operating income, as defined in the Agreement. Net operating income is defined, in part, based on rents and other revenues received in the ordinary course of business from our properties. As a result, if cash revenue recognized during a trailing four-quarter period declines significantly from historical amounts, we may be required to repay all outstanding amounts and lose access to our revolving credit facility unless we obtain a waiver. We currently believe that with our cash on hand, we will have sufficient resources to finance our operations and fund our debt service requirements and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months even if we are required to repay all outstanding borrowings under the Agreement.twelve months.

In March 2020, the Company borrowed $250 million under the Agreement and $350 million remains available for withdrawal.

In the event that LIBOR is discontinued, the interest rates for our debt following such event will be based on either alternate base rates or agreed upon replacement rates. Such an event would not affect our ability to borrow or maintain already outstanding borrowings, although it could result in higher interest rates.

Commitments and Contingencies
Insurance
The Company maintains (i)numerous insurance policies including for general liability, insurance with limitsproperty, pollution, acts of $200 million for properties in the U.S.terrorism, trustees’ and Puerto Rico, (ii) all-risk property insurance with limits of $500 million per occurrenceofficers’, cyber, workers’ compensation and in the aggregate for properties in the U.S. and $147 million for properties in Puerto Rico,automobile-related liabilities. However, all such policies are subject to the terms, conditions, exclusions, deductibles and sub-limits, when applicable for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes, (iii) pollutionamount other limiting factors. For example, the Company’s terrorism insurance with limits of $50 million for properties in the U.S. and Puerto Rico and (iv) numerous other insurance policies including trustees’ and officers’ insurance, cyber, workers’ compensation and automobile-related liabilities insurance. The Company’s insurance includes coverage for acts of terrorism but excludes coverage for nuclear, biological, chemical or radiological terrorism events as defined by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act, which expires in December 2020. The Company’s coverage for certain cybersecurity losses provides first and third-party coverage including network interruption, event management, cyber extortion and claims for media content, security and privacy liability.Act.

Insurance premiums are typically charged directly to each of the retail properties and warehouses but not all of the cost of such premiums are recovered. The Company is responsible for deductibles, losses in excess of insurance coverage, and the portion of premiums not reimbursable by tenants at our properties, which could be material.
We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of available coverage. We cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future and expect premiums across most coverage lines to increase in light of recent events. The incurrence of uninsured losses, costs or uncovered premiums could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Certain of our loans and other agreements contain customary covenants requiring the maintenance of insurance coverage. Although we believe that we currently have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. If lenders or other counterparties insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, such requirement could materially and adversely affect our ability to finance our properties and expand our portfolio.

Environmental Matters
Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. Based on these assessments, we have accrued costs of $1.0 million and $2.7$1.8 million on our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2020both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively, for remediation costs for environmental contamination at certain properties. While this accrual reflects our best estimates of the potential costs of remediation at these properties, there can be no assurance that the actual costs will not exceed these amounts. Although we are not aware of any other material environmental contamination, there can be no


assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites, or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant costs to us.

Tornado-Related Charges
On June 13, 2018, a tornado hit our shopping center in Wilkes-Barre, PA, damaging approximately 13% of the property’s gross leasable area. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company settled the related insurance claim with its carrier for $5.5 million. Of this amount, the Company recognized $4.8 million as a casualty gain in the three months ended June 30, 2019. As part of the settlement, the Company recognized $0.2 million and $0.3 million as business interruption proceeds within rental revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

Hurricane-Related Charges
On September 20, 2017, Hurricane Maria made landfall, damaging our two properties in Puerto Rico. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company reached a settlement agreement with its carrier regarding its final insurance recovery related to Hurricane Maria for $14.3 million, of which $3.3 million was previously received, subject to deductibles of $2.3 million. We recognized an $8.7 million casualty gain in the second quarter of 2019 as a result of the remaining insurance proceeds from the settlement agreement for our two malls in Puerto Rico.

Pandemic-Related Contingencies
The Company has concentratedMany of our tenants faced adverse financial consequences from reduced business operations inand social distancing requirements resulting from the New York metropolitan area and, although local and state governments implemented various phased reopening plans for nonessential businesses in June and July, the pandemic’s impact to our operations was heightened during the second quarter due to mandated closures that remained in effect for most of the second quarter.COVID-19 pandemic. As of August 4, 2020, 94%March 31, 2021, substantially all of our portfolio's gross leasable area (92% as measured by annualized base rent) was open for business and the Company collected approximately 72%93% of second quarter rental revenue billed and 73%for the first quarter of July rental revenue billed.

The Company is closely monitoring changes in the collectibility assessment of its tenant receivables as a result of certain tenants suffering adverse financial consequences due to COVID-19. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized a write-off of $6.0 million related to receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents as a result of tenants impacted by COVID-19 and recognized $12.5 million and $13.9 million, respectively, as rental revenue deemed uncollectible (classified within rental revenue) based on our assessment of the probability of collecting substantially all of the remaining rents for certain tenants.
We anticipate a decline in our percentage rent earned throughout 2020 as a result of reduced sales volumes from temporary store closures and changes in consumer behavior. Percentage rent accounted for less than 1% of rental revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and totaled $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Bankruptcies
Although our rental revenue is supported by long-term leases, leases may be rejected in a bankruptcy proceeding and the related tenant stores may permanently vacate prior to lease expiration. In the event a tenant with a significant number of leases or square footage in our shopping centers files for bankruptcy and rejects its leases with us, we could experience a reduction in our revenues. We monitor the operating performance and rent collections of all tenants in our shopping centers, especially those tenants in arrears or operating retail formats that are experiencing significant changes in competition, business practice, or store closings in other locations.

Given the economic environment brought upon by COVID-19, certain tenants underwentexperienced liquidity or financial hardships and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection induring the second quarter.year ended December 31, 2020. Although some of these tenants intend to exit the Chapter 11 bankruptcy process and resume operations, the outcomes of such proceedings are unknown and the Company is currently exploring leasing alternatives for these spaces. Specifically, 24 Hour Fitness filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on June 15, 2020. Prior to vacating, the Company had one lease with 24 Hour Fitness in Paramus, NJ comprising approximately 54,000 sf, which generated $3.1 million in annual rental revenue. In connection with the bankruptcy, the Company recognized a write-off of $3.5 million of receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents and recognized $0.8 million as rental revenue deemed uncollectible (classified within rental revenue) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Inflation and Economic Condition Considerations
Most of our leases contain provisions designed to partially mitigate the impact of inflation. Although inflation has been low in recent periods and has had a minimal impact on the performance of our shopping centers, it is very possible that inflation will increase in future years. Most of our leases require tenants to pay their share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation, although some larger tenants have capped the amount of these operating expenses they are responsible for under the lease. A small number of our leases also include percentage rent clauses enabling us to receive additional rent based on tenant sales above a predetermined level, which sales generally increase as prices rise and are typically related to increases in the Consumer Price Index or similar inflation indices.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2019.2020.

Interest Rate Risk

We have exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, which are sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control. The following table discusses our exposure to hypothetical changes in market rates of interest on interest expense for our variable rate debt and fixed-rate debt. Interest rate risk amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our debt. This analysis does not take into account all of the factors that may affect our debt, such as the effect that a changing interest rate environment could have on the overall level of economic activity or the action that our management might take to reduce our exposure to the change.

(2) If the weighted average interest rate of our fixed rate debt increased by 1% (i.e. due to refinancing at higher rates), annualized interest expense would have increased by approximately $14.3 million based on outstanding balances as of June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

We may utilize various financial instruments to mitigate the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our cash flows and earnings, including hedging strategies, depending on our analysis of the interest rate environment and the costs and risks of such strategies. As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we did not have any material hedging instruments in place.

Fair Value of Debt

The estimated fair value of our consolidated debt is calculated based on current market prices and discounted cash flows at the current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the remaining term of such debt. As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of our consolidated debt was $1.9$1.6 billion.

Other Market Risks

As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we had no material exposure to any other market risks (including foreign currency exchange risk or commodity price risk).

In making this determination and for purposes of the SEC’s market risk disclosure requirements, we have estimated the fair value of our financial instruments at June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 based on pertinent information available to management as of that date. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated amounts as of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, future estimates of fair value and the amounts which may be paid or realized in the future may differ significantly from amounts presented.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are party to various legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS
ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS
Except to the extent additional factual information disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relates to such risk factors (including, without limitation, the matters discussed in Part I, “Item 2-Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”), there were no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 filed with the SEC on February 12, 2020, other than those disclosed below.17, 2021.
Actual or perceived threats associated with epidemics, pandemics or other public health crises, including the COVID-19 pandemic, could have a material adverse effect on our and our tenants’ business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, liquidity, and ability to access the capital markets and satisfy debt service obligations.
Epidemics, pandemics or other public health crises, including the recent COVID-19 pandemic, that impact economic and market conditions, particularly in the markets where our properties are located, and preventative measures taken to alleviate their impact, including mandatory business shutdowns, “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders issued by local, state or federal authorities, may have a material adverse effect on our and our tenants’ business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and ability to access capital markets and satisfy debt service obligations.
Our retail tenants depend on in-person interactions with their customers, and the COVID-19 pandemic has decreased customer willingness to visit, and mandated “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders have prevented customers from visiting, our tenants’ businesses, which has and may continue to negatively impact their profitability or cash flow and ability make timely rental payments to us. As a result of our concentrated operations in the New York metropolitan area, the extent and magnitude, or perception, of the impact of the current COVID-19 pandemic on our and our tenants’ business is heightened. As of August 4, 2020, 94% of our portfolio's gross leasable area (92% as measured by annualized base rent) was open for business. We remain in active discussions and negotiations with our impacted tenants and anticipate granting further rent concessions or other lease-related relief. As of August 4, 2020, we expect to execute an approximate total of 65 rent deferrals for an aggregate deferral amount of $4.2 million, however the full financial impact of such rent relief is currently unknown. As of August 4, 2020 the Company collected approximately 72% of second quarter rental revenue billed and 73% of July rental revenue billed, respectively. We anticipate a decline in our percentage rent throughout 2020 as a result of reduced sales volume from temporary store closures and changes in consumer behavior.
Moreover, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent and mitigate its spread could have additional adverse effects on our business, including with regards to:
the ability and willingness of our tenants to renew their leases upon expiration, our ability to re-lease the properties on the same or better terms in the event of nonrenewal or in the event we exercise our right to replace an existing tenant, and obligations we may incur in connection with the replacement of an existing tenant, particularly in light of the adverse impact to the financial health of many retailers that has occurred and continues to occur as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the significant uncertainty as to when and the conditions under which potential tenants will be able to operate physical retail locations in the future;
anticipated returns from development and redevelopment projects, which have been temporarily delayed and may, in some cases, be abandoned;
the broader impact of the severe economic contraction due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting increase in unemployment that has occurred and its effect on consumer behavior, and the negative consequences that will occur if these trends are not timely reversed;
macroeconomic conditions, such as a disruption of, or lack of access to, the capital markets as well as the significant decline in our share price from prices prior to the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic;
our decision to pay dividends at all, or pay them in stock, which in the case of the latter may result in our shareholders having a tax liability with respect to such dividends that exceeds the amount of cash received, if any;
our ability to pay down, refinance, restructure or extend our indebtedness as it becomes due and potential limitations on our ability to borrow funds under our existing credit facility as a result of covenants relating to our financial results in the second quarter of 2020 or future quarters; and
potential reduction in our operating effectiveness as employees work remotely or if key personnel become unavailable due to illness or other personal circumstances related to COVID-19.
The COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent and mitigate its spread have already had a significant adverse impact on economic and market conditions around the world, including the United States and markets where our properties are located and could further trigger a period of sustained global and U.S. economic downturn or recession. While the rapid developments regarding the COVID-19 pandemic preclude any prediction as to its ultimate adverse impact, the current economic, political and social environment presents material risks and uncertainties with respect to our and our tenants’ business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity and ability to access the capital markets and satisfy debt service obligations.


To the extent any of these risks and uncertainties adversely impact us in the ways described above or otherwise, they may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described under the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
