Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the audited financial statements of Retail Properties of America, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2019, which are included in its 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as certain footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained in the Annual Report have been omitted from this Quarterly Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary, all of which were of normal recurring nature, for a fair presentation have been included in this Quarterly Report.

(1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Retail Properties of America, Inc. (the Company) was formed on March 5, 2003 and its primary purpose is to own and operate high quality, strategically located open-air shopping centers, including properties with a mixed-use component. As of March 31, 2020, the Company owned 102 retail operating properties in the United States.

The Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). The Company believes it qualifies for taxation as a REIT and, as such, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to its shareholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income, property or net worth and U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company has one wholly owned subsidiary that has jointly elected to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS) and is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes at regular corporate tax rates. The income tax expense incurred by the TRS did not have a material impact on the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. For example, significant estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to capitalization of development costs, provision for impairment, including estimates of holding periods, capitalization rates and discount rates (where applicable), and initial valuations and related amortization periods of deferred costs and intangibles, particularly with respect to property acquisitions and initial recognition of right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

All share amounts and dollar amounts in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, are stated in thousands with the exception of per share, per square foot and per unit amounts.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all wholly owned subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities (VIEs). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Wholly owned subsidiaries generally consist of limited liability companies, limited partnerships and statutory trusts.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic. COVID-19 has caused significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economy and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. The global impact of the COVID-19 outbreak has been rapidly evolving and many U.S. states and cities, including where the Company owns properties and/or has development sites, have imposed measures intended to control its spread, such as instituting “shelter-in-place” rules and restrictions on the types of businesses that may continue to operate and/or the types of construction projects that may continue. While the Company did not incur significant disruptions to its lease income and occupancy during the three months ended March 31, 2020 from COVID-19, the Company continues to closely monitor the impact of the pandemic on all aspects of its business. Due to numerous uncertainties, it is not possible to accurately predict the impact the pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. To date, as a result of the pandemic and the measures noted above to mitigate its impact, a number of the Company’s tenants have announced temporary closures of their stores or modifications of their operations and requested lease concessions. Generally, the Company has not yet reached agreement with tenants regarding concession requests, as discussions are ongoing. Certain other tenants are considered essential businesses which remain open and continue to operate during this time. Except for a small, enclosed portion of one property, the Company has not closed any of its properties and continues to operate them for the benefit of the communities and customers that the Company’s tenants serve.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a summary of its significant accounting policies. Except as disclosed below, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies in the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. This new guidance was effective January 1, 2020 and replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. Financial assets that are measured at amortized cost are required to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected with an allowance for credit losses deducted from the amortized cost basis. In addition, an entity must consider broader information in developing its expected credit loss estimate, including the use of forecasted information. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of this new guidance. Generally, the pronouncement requires a modified retrospective method of adoption. The adoption of this pronouncement on January 1, 2020 did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as it did not have any financial assets within the scope of this guidance.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement. This new guidance was effective January 1, 2020 and provides new and, in some cases, eliminates or modifies the previously existing disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. Public entities are now required to disclose the following: (i) the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and (ii) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. In addition, public entities are no longer required to disclose the following: (i) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, (ii) the policy for timing of transfers between levels and (iii) the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The new pronouncement also clarifies and modifies certain existing provisions to promote the appropriate exercise of discretion by entities when considering fair value measurement disclosures and clarifies that materiality is an appropriate consideration when evaluating disclosure requirements. As permitted by the new pronouncement, the Company removed the discussion of its valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company did not remove any other disclosures as it did not have any transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the current and comparative periods. The adoption of this pronouncement on January 1, 2020 did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The amended disclosure guidance will be applied prospectively.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform. This temporary guidance is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 to ease potential burdens related to the accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform on financial reporting. The guidance provides optional expedients for applying existing GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships affected by the move of global capital markets away from interbank offered rates, most notably the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Specifically, the guidance allows for certain changes in critical terms of a designated hedging instrument or hedged item as a result of reference rate reform to not result in the dedesignation of the hedging relationship. In addition, the optional expedients related to probability and effectiveness assessments allow companies to disregard certain economic mismatches in a hedging relationship arising due to reference rate reform until both the derivative and hedged transactions have completed the transition, where current GAAP requires those mismatches to be modeled into the assessment of effectiveness.

The Company adopted this guidance as of the effective date and elected to apply the optional expedients related to probability and effectiveness prospectively. The Company has not modified any hedging relationship and has disregarded the potential economic mismatches in hedging relationships due to reference rate reform during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question-and-answer (Q&A) document focusing on the application of the lease guidance in ASC 842, Leases, for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The FASB staff noted that due to the business disruptions and challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, many lessors are, or will be, providing lease concessions such as payment forgiveness and deferral of payments. Changes to lease payments that are not stipulated in the original lease contract are generally accounted for as lease modifications under ASC 842. Within the Q&A, the FASB staff provides relief for lease concessions offered as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and does not require these concessions to be accounted for in accordance with the lease modification guidance in ASC 842. Under existing lease guidance, the Company would determine, on a lease by lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement with the tenant or if it was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the lease agreement. Under the relief guidance, a company can account for the concessions (i) as if no changes to the existing lease contract were made or (ii) as a variable lease adjustment. The Q&A allows the Company, if certain criteria have been met, 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. This election is optional and available for concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that result in the total payments required by the modified contract being substantially the same as or less than the total payments required by the existing contract. The Company expects to apply the lease modification relief, however, the Q&A has not had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as the Company has not yet reached agreement with tenants regarding any concession requests, as discussions are ongoing. The future impact is dependent upon the extent of lease concessions granted to tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in future periods and the elections made by the Company at the time of entering such concessions.

The Company capitalized $1,316 and $574 of indirect project costs related to redevelopment projects during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, including, among other costs, $372 and $365 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the redevelopment projects and $785 and $144 of interest, respectively.

Variable Interest Entities

As of January 1, 2020, the Company had joint ventures related to the development, ownership and operation of the (i) multi-family rental portion of the expansion project at One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H, of which joint venture the Company owned 90%; (ii) multi-family rental portion of the redevelopment project at Carillon, of which joint venture the Company owned 95%, and (iii) medical office building portion of the redevelopment project at Carillon, of which joint venture the Company owned 95%.

The joint ventures are considered VIEs primarily because the Company’s joint venture partners do not have substantive kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. The Company is considered the primary beneficiary as it has a controlling financial interest in each joint venture. As such, the Company has consolidated these joint ventures and presented the joint venture partners’ interests as noncontrolling interests.

As a result of halting the planned vertical construction at Carillon, the Company terminated the joint venture related to the multi-family rental portion of the redevelopment during the three months ended March 31, 2020. In accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreement, costs incurred prior to the termination were funded evenly by the partners and there was no payment between the partners upon termination. Subsequent to the termination, if the Company commences the redevelopment and uses the materials developed, or approvals obtained, by the joint venture, the Company is required to reimburse the partner’s costs incurred in connection with such materials or approvals. As a result of the termination, the Company reclassified the noncontrolling interest balance of $1,661 related to this multi-family rental joint venture from noncontrolling interests to additional paid-in capital within equity. There was no gain or loss recognized in connection with the termination. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, the Company terminated the joint venture related to the medical office building portion of the redevelopment at Carillon.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had recorded the following related to the consolidated joint ventures:

	March 31, 2020								December 31, 2019
	One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H		Carillon – Phase One Multi-family Rental		Carillon – Phase One Medical Office		Total		One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H		Carillon – Phase One Multi-family Rental		Carillon – Phase One Medical Office		Total
Net investment properties	$	29,715	$	—	$	885	$	30,600	$	8,830	$	2,940	$	675	$	12,445
Other assets, net	$	344	$	—	$	—	$	344	$	164	$	—	$	—	$	164

Noncontrolling interests	$	2,699	$	—	$	359	$	3,058	$	1,869	$	1,454	$	273	$	3,596

Development costs are funded by the partners, including the Company, and/or construction loan financing throughout the construction period. Under terms defined in the joint venture agreements, after construction completion and stabilization of the respective development project, the Company has the ability to call, and the joint venture partner has the ability to put to the Company, subject to certain conditions, the joint venture partner’s interest in the respective joint venture at fair value. The Company has not provided financial support to these VIEs in excess of any amounts that it is contractually required to provide. There was no income from the joint venture projects during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and, as such, no income was attributed to the noncontrolling interests.

the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company elected to increase its borrowings under its unsecured revolving line of credit to enhance its liquidity and provide maximum financial flexibility as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to evolve and impact the global financial markets. As a result, as of March 31, 2020, the Company’s $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit was nearly fully drawn.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the Unsecured Credit Facility:

				Leverage-Based Pricing		Investment Grade Pricing
Unsecured Credit Facility	Maturity Date	Extension Option	Extension Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee
$250,000 unsecured term loan due 2021	1/5/2021	N/A	N/A	1.20%–1.70%	N/A	0.90%–1.75%	N/A

In accordance with the respective term loan agreements, the Company may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of March 31, 2020, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, the Company has not made the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the unsecured term loans:

Unsecured Term Loans	Maturity Date	Leverage-Based Pricing Credit Spread				Investment Grade Pricing Credit Spread
$200,000 unsecured term loan due 2023	11/22/2023	1.20	%	–	1.85%	0.85	%	–	1.65%

(8) DERIVATIVES

The Company’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and add stability to interest expense. To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed rate payments over the life of the agreement without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company has 11 interest rate swaps to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable rate debt. Changes in fair value of the derivatives that are designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” and are reclassified into interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate debt. Over the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $12,010 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate swaps as of March 31, 2020, which effectively convert one-month floating rate LIBOR to a fixed rate:

Number of Instruments	Effective Date	Aggregate Notional		Fixed Interest Rate		Maturity Date
Three	December 29, 2017	$	250,000	2.00	%	January 5, 2021
Two	November 23, 2018	$	200,000	2.85	%	November 22, 2023
Three	August 15, 2019	$	120,000	1.68	%	July 17, 2024
Three	August 15, 2019	$	150,000	1.77	%	July 17, 2026

The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

	Number of Instruments		Notional
Interest Rate Derivatives	March 31, 2020	December 31, 2019	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Interest rate swaps	11	11	$	720,000	$	720,000

The table below presents the estimated fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments, which are presented within “Other liabilities” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The valuation techniques used are described in Note 12 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

	Fair Value

(9) EQUITY

The Company has an existing common stock repurchase program under which it may repurchase, from time to time, up to a maximum of $500,000 of shares of its Class A common stock. The shares may be repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions and are canceled upon repurchase. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price in absolute terms and in relation to the value of the Company’s assets, corporate and regulatory requirements, market conditions and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. The common stock repurchase program

may be suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice. The Company did not repurchase any shares during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. As of March 31, 2020, $189,105 remained available for repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock under its common stock repurchase program.

(10) EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table summarizes the components used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020				2019
Numerator:
Net income attributable to common shareholders	$	22,357			$	23,208
Earnings allocated to unvested restricted shares	(109		)		(80		)
Net income attributable to common shareholders excluding amounts attributable to unvested restricted shares	$	22,248			$	23,128
Denominator:
Denominator for earnings per common share – basic:

RSUs	—			(d)	373			(e)
Denominator for earnings per common share – diluted:
Weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding	213,215				213,223

(a) Excludes 815 shares of unvested restricted common stock as of March 31, 2020, which equate to 677 shares on a weighted average basis for the three months ended March 31, 2020. These shares will continue to be excluded from the computation of basic EPS until contingencies are resolved and the shares are released.

(b) Excludes 667 shares of unvested restricted common stock as of March 31, 2019, which equate to 602 shares on a weighted average basis for the three months ended March 31, 2019. These shares were excluded from the computation of basic EPS as the contingencies remained and the shares had not been released as of the end of the reporting period.

(c) There were outstanding options to purchase 16 and 22 shares of common stock as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, at a weighted average exercise price of $15.87 and $17.34, respectively. Of these totals, outstanding options to purchase 16 and 18 shares of common stock as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, at a weighted average exercise price of $15.87 and $18.58, respectively, have been excluded from the common shares used in calculating diluted EPS as including them would be anti-dilutive.

(d) As of March 31, 2020, there were 974 RSUs eligible for future conversion upon completion of the performance periods (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements), which equate to 969 RSUs on a weighted average basis for the three months ended March 31, 2020. These contingently issuable shares have been excluded from the common shares used in calculating diluted EPS as including them would be anti-dilutive.

(e) As of March 31, 2019, there were 839 RSUs eligible for future conversion upon completion of the performance periods, which equate to 832 RSUs on a weighted average basis for the three months ended March 31, 2019. These contingently issuable shares are a component of calculating diluted EPS.

(11) PROVISION FOR IMPAIRMENT OF INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

As of March 31, 2020, the Company identified indicators of impairment at certain of its properties. Such indicators included a low occupancy rate, difficulty in leasing space and related cost of re-leasing, or significant change in the scope, cost or timing of planned redevelopment. As of March 31, 2019, the Company did not identify indicators of impairment at any of its properties. The following table summarizes the results of these analyses as of March 31, 2020.

	March 31, 2020
Number of properties for which indicators of impairment were identified	2
Less: number of properties for which an impairment charge was recorded	—
Less: number of properties that were held for sale as of the date the analysis was performed for which indicators of impairment were identified but no impairment charge was recorded	—
Remaining properties for which indicators of impairment were identified but no impairment charge was considered necessary	2
Weighted average percentage by which the projected undiscounted cash flows exceeded its respective carrying value for each of the remaining properties (a)	58	%

(a) Based upon the estimated holding period for each asset where an undiscounted cash flow analysis was performed.

The Company recorded the following investment property impairment charge during the three months ended March 31, 2020:

Property Name	Property Type	Impairment Date	Square Footage	Provision for Impairment of Investment Properties
King Philip’s Crossing (a)	Multi-tenant retail	February 13, 2020	105,900	$	346
				$	346
	Estimated fair value of impaired property as of impairment date			$	11,644

(a) The Company recorded an impairment charge on December 31, 2019 based upon the terms and conditions of an executed sales contract. This property was sold on February 13, 2020, at which time additional impairment was recognized pursuant to the terms and conditions of an executed sales contract.

The Company did not record any investment property impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The extent to which COVID-19 impacts the Company and its tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. If the effects of COVID-19 cause economic and market conditions to continue to deteriorate or if the Company’s expected holding period for assets change, subsequent tests for impairment could result in impairment charges in the future. As of March 31, 2020, the Company does not consider the impacts of COVID-19, including tenant requests for lease concessions, to be impairment indicators. However, indications of a tenant’s inability to continue as a going concern, changes in the Company’s view or strategy relative to a tenant’s business or industry as a result of COVID-19, or changes in the Company’s long-term hold strategies could change in future periods. The Company will continue to monitor circumstances and events in future periods and can provide no assurance that material impairment charges with respect to its investment properties will not occur in future periods.

(12) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments:

	March 31, 2020				December 31, 2019
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Financial liabilities:
Mortgages payable, net	$	93,562	$	95,831	$	94,155	$	98,082
Unsecured notes payable, net	$	796,420	$	788,109	$	796,247	$	822,883
Unsecured term loans, net	$	716,792	$	711,013	$	716,523	$	720,000
Unsecured revolving line of credit	$	849,704	$	841,529	$	18,000	$	18,000
Derivative liability	$	39,870	$	39,870	$	12,288	$	12,288

The carrying value of the derivative liability is included within “Other liabilities” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents the Company’s financial instruments, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these instruments are described after the table.

	Fair Value
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
March 31, 2020
Derivative liability	$	—	$	39,870	$	—	$	39,870
December 31, 2019
Derivative liability	$	—	$	12,288	$	—	$	12,288

Derivatives:  The fair value of the derivative liability is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected future cash flows of each derivative. This analysis uses observable market data including forward yield curves and implied volatilities to determine the market’s expectation of the future cash flows of the variable component. The fixed and variable components of the derivative are then discounted using calculated discount factors developed based on the LIBOR swap rate and are aggregated to arrive at a single valuation for the period. The Company also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered any applicable credit enhancements. The Company’s derivative instruments are further described in Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company did not remeasure any assets to fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of March 31, 2020. The following table presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2019, aggregated by the level within the fair value hierarchy in which those measurements fall. The table includes information related to properties remeasured to fair value as a result of impairment charges recorded during the year ended December 31, 2019, except for those properties sold prior to December 31, 2019. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these assets as of December 31, 2019 are described after the table.

	Fair Value
	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3			Total		Provision for Impairment
December 31, 2019
Investment properties	$	—	$	11,644	(a)	$	5,300	(b)	$	16,944	$	12,298

(a) Represents the fair value of the Company’s King Philip’s Crossing investment property as of December 31, 2019, the date the asset was measured at fair value. The estimated fair value of King Philip’s Crossing was based upon the expected sales price from an executed sales contract and determined to be a Level 2 input.

(b) Represents the fair value of the Company’s Streets of Yorktown investment property as of September 30, 2019, the date the asset was measured at fair value. The estimated fair value of Streets of Yorktown was determined using the income approach. The income approach involves discounting the estimated income stream and reversion (presumed sale) value of a property over an estimated holding period to a present value at a risk-adjusted rate. The discount rates and third-party comparable sales prices used in this approach are derived from property-specific information, market transactions and other industry data and are considered significant inputs to this valuation. The reversion value of the property was based upon third-party comparable sales prices, which contain unobservable inputs used by these third parties. A weighted average discount rate of 6.89% was used to (i) present value the estimated income stream over the estimated holding period and (ii) present value the reversion value.

Fair Value Disclosures

The following table presents the Company’s financial liabilities, which are measured at fair value for disclosure purposes, by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall.

	Fair Value
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

The Company estimates the fair value of its Level 3 financial liabilities using a discounted cash flow model that incorporates future contractual principal and interest payments. The Company estimates the fair value of its mortgages payable, net and Level 3 unsecured notes payable, net by discounting the anticipated future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered to the Company by its lenders for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities. The Company estimates the fair value of its unsecured term loans, net and unsecured revolving line of credit by discounting the anticipated future cash flows at a reference rate, currently one-month LIBOR, plus an applicable credit spread currently offered to the Company by its lenders for similar instruments of comparable maturities. The following rates were used in the discounted cash flow model to calculate the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities:

	March 31, 2020	December 31, 2019
Mortgages payable, net – range of discount rates used	3.6% to 4.1%	3.2% to 3.6%
Unsecured notes payable, net – weighted average discount rate used	4.72%	3.79%
Unsecured term loans, net – weighted average credit spread portion of discount rate used	1.75%	1.26%
Unsecured revolving line of credit – credit spread portion of discount rate used	1.63%	1.05%

There were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019.

(13) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had letters of credit outstanding totaling $291 that serve as collateral for certain capital improvements at one of its properties and reduce the available borrowings on its unsecured revolving line of credit.

The following table summarizes the Company’s active expansion and redevelopment projects as of March 31, 2020:

		Estimated Net Investment				Net Investment as of March 31, 2020
Project Name	MSA	Low		High
Circle East (a)	Baltimore	$	42,000	$	44,000	$	22,804
One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H (b)	Washington, D.C.	$	125,000	$	135,000	$	21,542
The Shoppes at Quarterfield	Baltimore	$	9,000	$	10,000	$	524
Southlake Town Square – Pad	Dallas	$	2,000	$	2,500	$	259

(a) Investment amounts are net of proceeds of $11,820 received from the sale of air rights.

(b) Investment amounts are net of expected contributions from the Company’s joint venture partners.

In response to current macroeconomic conditions, the Company halted plans for vertical construction at its Carillon redevelopment during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and has materially reduced the planned scope and spend for the project. As of March 31, 2020, the Company was actively completing site work preparation at the property in anticipation of potential future development at the site. The Company expects to complete the site work preparation during 2020 for an expected additional capital investment of approximately $4,500. In addition, the Company terminated the joint venture related to the multi-family rental portion of the redevelopment and subsequent to March 31, 2020, the Company terminated the joint venture related to the medical office building portion of the redevelopment at Carillon.

(14) LITIGATION

The Company is subject, from time to time, to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the resolution of such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes, based on currently available information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company entered into a settlement agreement related to litigation with a former tenant and received $6,100 in proceeds.

(15) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to March 31, 2020, the Company:

• terminated the joint venture related to the medical office building portion of the redevelopment at Carillon; and

• executed amendments to its unsecured debt agreements for its Unsecured Credit Facility, Term Loan Due 2023, Term Loan Due 2024 and Term Loan Due 2026 that changed the covenant calculation for the unencumbered interest coverage ratio to include operating results from the most recent four fiscal quarters. Prior to these amendments, the calculation only included operating results from the most recent fiscal quarter. As a result, the updated calculation applies to all unsecured debt instruments to which this covenant relates, including the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit, all unsecured term loans and all unsecured private placement notes payable.

On May 1, 2020, the Company’s board of directors temporarily suspended future quarterly dividend payments on the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock in order to preserve and enhance liquidity and capital positioning. The Company’s board of directors will evaluate dividend declaration decisions quarterly and consider REIT taxable income distribution requirements in these deliberations. The timing and amount of dividend resumption depends largely on the Company’s operating cash flow performance as well as other factors.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in this report.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic. COVID-19 has caused significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economy and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. The global impact of the COVID-19 outbreak has been rapidly evolving and many U.S. states and cities, including where we own properties and/or have development sites, have imposed measures intended to control its spread, such as instituting “shelter-in-place” rules and restrictions on the types of businesses that may continue to operate and/or the types of construction projects that may continue. While we did not incur significant disruptions to our lease income and occupancy during the three months ended March 31, 2020 from COVID-19, we continue to closely monitor the impact of the pandemic on all aspects of our business. Due to numerous uncertainties, it is not possible to accurately predict the impact the pandemic will have on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. To date, as a result of the pandemic and the measures noted above to mitigate its impact, a number of our tenants have announced temporary closures of their stores or modifications of their operations. Certain other tenants are considered essential businesses which remain open and continue to operate during this time. Essential businesses and office represent approximately 37% of our annualized base rent (ABR), including 8% from grocery/warehouse clubs and 6% from office tenants. We have collected more than 52% of April rent charges as of April 30, 2020.

The following table, based on ABR of leases in effect as of March 31, 2020, sets forth information regarding the percent of April rent collected by tenant type as of April 30, 2020. This information is being provided to assist with analysis of the potential impact of COVID-19. April rental receipts may not be indicative of collections in future periods. The classification of tenant type, including the classification between essential and non-essential, is based on management’s understanding of the tenant operations and may not be comparative to similarly titled classifications by other companies.

While working to preserve our profitability and cash flow, we are also working with our tenants regarding requests for lease concessions and other forms of assistance available to them, including small business loans under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, which was signed into law on March 27, 2020 and provides small businesses access to loan programs to cover monthly expenses such as payroll, rent and utilities. Generally, we have not yet reached agreement with tenants regarding concession requests, as discussions are ongoing. While seeking to work toward a mutually agreeable outcome with tenants directly impacted by COVID-19, we believe that certain tenants, which remain open and hold an ability to pay, have elected to withhold April rent unnecessarily. We are not forgoing our contractual rights under our lease agreements and our tenants do not have a clear contractual right to cease paying rent due to government closures. However, COVID-19 and the related governmental orders present fairly novel situations and it is possible government action could impact our rights. Except for a small, enclosed portion of one property, we have not closed any of our properties and continue to operate them for the benefit of the communities and the customers that our tenants serve.

In response to current macroeconomic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, we halted plans for vertical construction at our Carillon redevelopment during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and have materially reduced the planned scope and spend for the project, driving a reduction in our expected 2020 redevelopment spend of approximately $75,000 to $100,000. As of March 31, 2020, we were actively completing site work preparation at Carillon in anticipation of potential future development at the site. We expect to complete the site work preparation during 2020 for an expected additional capital investment of approximately $4,500. In addition, we terminated the joint venture related to the multi-family rental portion of the redevelopment. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, we terminated the joint venture related to the medical office building portion of the redevelopment at Carillon.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we elected to increase our borrowings under our unsecured revolving line of credit to enhance our liquidity and provide maximum financial flexibility as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to evolve and impact the global financial markets. As a result, as of March 31, 2020, our $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit was nearly fully drawn and the proceeds were deposited into accounts at FDIC-insured institutions. As of March 31, 2020, we have $769,241 of cash on hand and the ability to repay the vast majority of the amount drawn on our unsecured revolving line of credit; however, we may elect to not repay it for some time, which will increase our interest expense.

In order to preserve and enhance liquidity and capital positioning, our board of directors has temporarily suspended future quarterly dividend payments on our outstanding Class A common stock. Our board of directors will evaluate dividend declaration decisions quarterly and consider REIT taxable income distribution requirements in these deliberations. The timing and amount of dividend resumption depends largely on our operating cash flow performance as well as other factors.

During this period, our employees, except for a small number that are considered essential to be on-site for the safe operation of our properties, have successfully transitioned to working remotely, and we have not furloughed any employees nor significantly modified our key processes or internal controls over financial reporting. In addition, we expect to reduce our 2020 capital expenditures, including tenant improvements, and certain expenses, including overhead, from the original budget.

Executive Summary

Retail Properties of America, Inc. (we, our, us) is a REIT that owns and operates high quality, strategically located open-air shopping centers, including properties with a mixed-use component. As of March 31, 2020, we owned 102 retail operating properties in the United States representing 19,961,000 square feet of gross leasable area (GLA) and had four expansion and redevelopment projects. Our retail operating portfolio includes (i) neighborhood and community centers, (ii) power centers, and (iii) lifestyle centers and multi-tenant retail-focused mixed-use properties, as well as single-user retail properties.

(a) Includes leases signed but not commenced.

(b) Excludes the 18 multi-family rental units at Plaza del Lago. As of March 31, 2020, 16 multi-family rental units were leased at an average monthly rental rate per unit of $1,339.

26

(c) The operating portion of this property is included in the property count of lifestyle centers and mixed-use properties within our retail operating portfolio.

In 2018, we completed our portfolio transformation and are now a prominent owner of multi-tenant retail properties, many with a mixed-use component, primarily located in the following markets: Dallas, Washington, D.C./Baltimore, New York, Chicago, Seattle, Atlanta, Houston, San Antonio, Phoenix and Austin. As a result, our portfolio is better focused and since our inaugural investor day in 2013, we have (i) improved our retail ABR by 35% to $19.50 per square foot as of March 31, 2020 from $14.46 per square foot as of March 31, 2013, (ii) increased our concentration in lifestyle and mixed-use properties based on multi-tenant retail ABR by 1,900 basis points to 35% as of March 31, 2020 from 16% as of March 31, 2013, (iii) reduced our top 20 retail tenant concentration of total ABR by 1,130 basis points to 26.6% as of March 31, 2020 from 37.9% as of March 31, 2013, and (iv) reduced our indebtedness by 5% to $2,463,989 as of March 31, 2020, which includes our nearly fully drawn $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit, from $2,601,912 as of March 31, 2013. Additionally, as of March 31, 2020, approximately 88.1% of our multi-tenant retail ABR was generated in the top 25 metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs), as determined by the United States Census Bureau and ranked based on the most recently available population estimates.

In addition to addressing tenant lease concession requests stemming from COVID-19 in the near term, we are focused on optimizing our tenancy, asset level configurations and merchandising through (i) accretive leasing activity and (ii) mixed-use expansion and redevelopment projects. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we achieved positive comparable cash leasing spreads of 4.8% on signed new leases and 4.9% on signed renewal leases for a blended re-leasing spread of 4.9%. During this period, we achieved average annual contractual rent increases on signed new leases of approximately 170 basis points. As of March 31, 2020, we have $16,272 of ABR related to 647,000 square feet of GLA pertaining to 2020 lease expirations and $4,545 of ABR related to 245,000 square feet of GLA pertaining to leases signed but not commenced. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are unable to project the impact on our leasing volume or other leasing trends. However, while existing tenants are continuing to pursue renewals, we have to a certain extent experienced, and may continue to experience, a slowdown in (i) rent commencing on signed leases, (ii) the volume of renewal leases and (iii) our ability to finalize the execution of new leases given current uncertainty.

Our active and near-term expansion and redevelopment projects consist of approximately $178,000 to $192,000 of expected investment through 2022, equivalent to approximately 6% of the net book value of our investment properties as of March 31, 2020. These predominantly mixed-use-focused projects include the redevelopment at Circle East, the expansion projects of Pads G & H at One Loudoun Downtown and site and building reconfiguration at The Shoppes at Quarterfield as well as the vacant pad development at Southlake Town Square. In response to current macroeconomic conditions due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we halted plans for vertical construction at our Carillon redevelopment during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and have materially reduced the planned scope and spend for the project, driving a reduction in our expected 2020 redevelopment spend of approximately $75,000 to $100,000. As of March 31, 2020, we were actively completing site work preparation at Carillon in anticipation of potential future development at the site. We expect to complete the site work preparation during 2020 for an expected additional capital investment of approximately $4,500. In addition, we terminated the joint venture related to the multi-family rental portion of the redevelopment. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, we terminated the joint venture related to the medical office building portion of the redevelopment at Carillon. Our current portfolio of assets contains numerous additional projects in the longer-term pipeline, including, among others, redevelopment at Carillon, additional pad developments at One Loudoun Downtown, pad developments and expansions at Main Street Promenade and Downtown Crown, and future projects at Merrifield Town Center, Tysons Corner, Southlake Town Square, Lakewood Towne Center and One Loudoun Uptown.

29

(c) Includes (i) leases signed on units that were vacant for over 12 months, (ii) leases signed without fixed rental payments and (iii) leases signed where the previous and current lease do not have a consistent lease structure.

Our near-term efforts are primarily focused on reaching resolution of tenant lease concession requests. In addition, our leasing efforts are focused on (i) vacant anchor and small shop space, (ii) upcoming lease expirations and (iii) spaces within our expansion and redevelopment projects. Through these collective efforts, we look to situationally focus on stability, tenancy and to optimize the mix of operators and unique retailers at our properties. As of March 31, 2020, we have $16,272 of ABR related to 647,000 square feet of GLA pertaining to 2020 lease expirations and $4,545 of ABR related to 245,000 square feet of GLA pertaining to leases signed but not commenced. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are unable to project the impact on our leasing volume or other leasing trends. However, while existing tenants are continuing to pursue renewals, we have to a certain extent experienced, and may continue to experience, a slowdown in (i) rent commencing on signed leases, (ii) the volume of renewal leases and (iii) our ability to finalize the execution of new leases given current uncertainty.

Capital Markets

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we:

• borrowed $831,704, net of repayments, on our unsecured revolving line of credit to enhance our liquidity and provide maximum financial flexibility as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to evolve and impact the global financial markets; and

• made scheduled principal payments of $619 related to amortizing loans.

Distributions

We declared a quarterly distribution of $0.165625 per share of common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Net income attributable to common shareholders was $22,357 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $23,208 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The $851 decrease was primarily due to the following:

• an $8,449 decrease in gain on sales of investment properties related to the sale of one investment property consisting of approximately 105,900 square feet of GLA that was impaired during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared

30

to the sale of one investment property consisting of approximately 94,600 square feet of GLA that was sold for a gain during the three months ended March 31, 2019; and

• a $4,008 decrease in lease income primarily consisting of:

• a $1,358 decrease in amortization from acquired below market lease intangibles primarily as a result of the write-off of an acquired lease intangible liability associated with a lease that was not renewed at one of our operating properties during the three months ended March 31, 2019;

• a $1,159 decrease in straight-line rent;

• a $1,104 increase in bad debt;

• a $1,064 decrease in lease termination fee income; and

• a $1,007 decrease in tenant recovery income;

partially offset by

• an $1,872 increase in base rent primarily due to the growth from our same store portfolio and the operating properties acquired during 2019 and 2020, partially offset by the operating properties sold during 2019 and 2020.

partially offset by

• a $6,100 gain on litigation settlement recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020 related to litigation with a former tenant. No such gain was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019;

• a $3,094 decrease in depreciation and amortization primarily due to site improvement and in-place lease intangible assets becoming fully depreciated or amortized upon reaching the end of the asset’s estimated useful life during the three months ended March 31, 2020;

• a $1,334 decrease in general and administrative expenses primarily due to a decrease in comparative cash bonus expense resulting from a significant reduction in cash bonus expectations for 2020; and

• a $1,272 decrease in operating expenses primarily due to lower snow-related expenses in 2020.

Net operating income (NOI)

We define NOI as all revenues other than (i) straight-line rental income (non-cash), (ii) amortization of lease inducements, (iii) amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and (iv) lease termination fee income, less real estate taxes and all operating expenses other than lease termination fee expense and non-cash ground rent expense, which is comprised of amortization of right-of-use lease assets and amortization of lease liabilities. NOI consists of same store NOI (Same Store NOI) and NOI from other investment properties (NOI from Other Investment Properties). We believe that NOI, Same Store NOI and NOI from Other Investment Properties, which are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures, provide an additional and useful operating perspective not immediately apparent from “Net income” or “Net income attributable to common shareholders” in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). We use these measures to evaluate our performance on a property-by-property basis because they allow management to evaluate the impact that factors such as lease structure, lease rates and tenant base have on our operating results. NOI, Same Store NOI and NOI from Other Investment Properties do not represent alternatives to “Net income” or “Net income attributable to common shareholders” in accordance with GAAP as indicators of our financial performance. Comparison of our presentation of NOI, Same Store NOI and NOI from Other Investment Properties to similarly titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in definition and application by such REITs. For reference and as an aid in understanding our computation of NOI, a reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders as computed in accordance with GAAP to Same Store NOI has been presented for each comparable period presented.

31

Same store portfolio

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, our same store portfolio consisted of 101 retail operating properties acquired or placed in service and stabilized prior to January 1, 2019. The number of properties in our same store portfolio decreased to 101 as of March 31, 2020 from 102 as of December 31, 2019 as a result of the following:

• the removal of King Philip’s Crossing, a same store investment property that was sold during the three months ended March 31, 2020; and

• the removal of The Shoppes at Quarterfield, which was reclassified to active redevelopment during the three months ended March 31, 2020;

• the addition of Reisterstown Road Plaza, a redevelopment project that was reclassified into our retail operating portfolio during 2018.

The properties and financial results reported in “Other investment properties” primarily include the following:

• properties acquired during 2019 and 2020;

• the multi-family rental units at Plaza del Lago, a redevelopment project that was placed in service during 2019;

• Circle East, which is in active redevelopment;

• One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H, which are in active development;

• Carillon, a redevelopment project where we halted plans for vertical construction during the three months ended March 31, 2020 in response to current macroeconomic conditions due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; however, we are actively completing site work preparation at the property in anticipation of potential future development at the site;

• The Shoppes at Quarterfield, which is in active redevelopment;

• investment properties that were sold or classified as held for sale during 2019 and 2020; and

• the net income from our wholly owned captive insurance company.

Same Store NOI	$	81,741		$	80,762		$	979

Same Store NOI increased $979, or 1.2%, primarily due to the following:

• a $2,732 increase in base rent primarily driven by increases of (i) $1,093 from occupancy growth, (ii) $996 from contractual rent changes and (iii) $552 from re-leasing spreads;

partially offset by

• a $1,077 increase in bad debt, net; and

• a $608 increase in property operating expenses and real estate taxes, net of tenant recoveries, due to a positive impact from the common area maintenance and real estate tax reconciliation process in 2019, increases in certain non-recoverable property operating expenses and higher net real estate taxes, partially offset by decreases in net recoverable property operating expenses primarily driven by lower snow-related expenses.

Funds From Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a financial measure known as funds from operations (FFO). As defined by NAREIT, FFO means net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding (i) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (ii) gains from sales of real estate assets, (iii) gains and losses from change in control and (iv) impairment write-downs of real estate assets and investments in entities directly attributable to decreases in the value of real estate held by the entity. We have adopted the NAREIT definition in our computation of FFO attributable to common shareholders. Management believes that, subject to the following limitations, FFO attributable to common shareholders provides a basis for comparing our performance and operations to those of other REITs.

We define Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders as FFO attributable to common shareholders excluding the impact of discrete non-operating transactions and other events which we do not consider representative of the comparable operating results of our real estate operating portfolio, which is our core business platform. Specific examples of discrete non-operating transactions and other events include, but are not limited to, the impact on earnings from gains or losses associated with the early extinguishment of debt or other liabilities, litigation involving the Company, including gains recognized as a result of settlement and costs to engage outside counsel related to litigation with former tenants, the impact on earnings from executive separation and the excess of redemption value over carrying value of preferred stock redemption, which are not otherwise adjusted in our calculation of FFO attributable to common shareholders.

We believe that FFO attributable to common shareholders and Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders, which are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures, provide an additional and useful means to assess the operating performance of REITs. FFO attributable to common shareholders and Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders do not represent alternatives to (i) “Net Income” or “Net income attributable to common shareholders” as indicators of our financial performance, or (ii) “Cash flows from operating activities” in accordance with GAAP as measures of our capacity to fund cash needs, including the payment of dividends. Comparison of our presentation of Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders to similarly titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in definition and application by such REITs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We anticipate that cash flows from the below-listed sources will provide adequate capital for the next 12 months and beyond for all scheduled principal and interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness, including maturing debt, current and anticipated tenant allowances or other capital obligations, the shareholder distributions required to maintain our REIT status and compliance with the financial covenants of our unsecured debt agreements.

Our primary expected sources and uses of liquidity are as follows:

	SOURCES		USES
▪	Operating cash flow	▪	Tenant allowances and leasing costs
▪	Cash and cash equivalents	▪	Improvements made to individual properties, certain of which are not
▪	Proceeds from capital markets transactions		recoverable through common area maintenance charges to tenants
▪	Proceeds from asset dispositions	▪	Debt repayments
▪	Proceeds from the sales of air rights	▪	Distribution payments
		▪	Redevelopment, expansion and pad development activities
		▪	Acquisitions
		▪	New development
		▪	Repurchases of our common stock

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we elected to nearly fully draw on our $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit to enhance our liquidity and provide maximum financial flexibility as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to evolve and impact the global financial markets. As of March 31, 2020, we have $769,241 of cash on hand and the ability to repay the vast majority of the amount drawn on our unsecured revolving line of credit; however, we may elect to not repay it for some time, which will increase our interest expense. Over the last several years, we have made substantial progress in strengthening our balance sheet, as demonstrated by our reduced leverage, improved financial flexibility and higher unencumbered asset ratio. We believe this progress places us in a position to be able to better withstand the current unprecedented macroeconomic environment. However, there can be no assurances in this regard or that additional financing or capital will be available to us going forward, on favorable terms or at all. Additionally, through April 30, 2020, we have collected more than 52% of billed rent from our tenants. If such a trend continues, or possibly deteriorates, and if we agree with certain tenants that rent may be deferred until a later date, our operating cash flows and liquidity will be negatively impacted. As we worked to fortify our balance sheet, we funded debt maturities primarily through asset dispositions and capital markets transactions, including the public offering of our common stock and private and public offerings of senior unsecured notes. As of March 31, 2020, we have no scheduled debt maturities and $1,875

34

of principal amortization due through the end of 2020, which we plan on satisfying through a combination of cash flows from operations and working capital, including cash on hand of $769,241 as of March 31, 2020.

The table below summarizes our consolidated indebtedness as of March 31, 2020:

Mortgages Payable

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we made scheduled principal payments of $619 related to amortizing loans.

Unsecured Term Loans and Revolving Line of Credit

Unsecured Credit Facility

We have a $1,100,000 unsecured credit facility consisting of an $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit and a $250,000 unsecured term loan (Unsecured Credit Facility) that is priced on a leverage grid at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread. In accordance with the unsecured credit agreement, we may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of March 31,

35

2020, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, we have not made the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the Unsecured Credit Facility:

				Leverage-Based Pricing		Investment Grade Pricing
Unsecured Credit Facility	Maturity Date	Extension Option	Extension Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee
$250,000 unsecured term loan due 2021	1/5/2021	N/A	N/A	1.20%–1.70%	N/A	0.90%–1.75%	N/A
$850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit	4/22/2022	2-six month	0.075%	1.05%–1.50%	0.15%–0.30%	0.825%–1.55%	0.125%–0.30%

The Unsecured Credit Facility has a $500,000 accordion option that allows us, at our election, to increase the total Unsecured Credit Facility up to $1,600,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions including, but not limited to, the absence of an event of default as defined in the unsecured credit agreement and (ii) our ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

As of March 31, 2020, we had letters of credit outstanding totaling $291 that serve as collateral for certain capital improvements at one of our properties and reduce the available borrowings on our unsecured revolving line of credit.

Unsecured Term Loans

As of March 31, 2020, we have the following unsecured term loans: (i) a seven-year $200,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2023), (ii) a five-year $120,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2024), and (iii) a seven-year $150,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2026) each of which bears interest at a rate of LIBOR, adjusted based on applicable reserve percentages established by the Federal Reserve, plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid. In accordance with the respective term loan agreements, we may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of March 31, 2020, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, we have not made the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the unsecured term loans:

Unsecured Term Loans	Maturity Date	Leverage-Based Pricing Credit Spread	Investment Grade Pricing Credit Spread
$200,000 unsecured term loan due 2023	11/22/2023	1.20% – 1.85%	0.85% – 1.65%
$120,000 unsecured term loan due 2024	7/17/2024	1.20% – 1.70%	0.80% – 1.65%
$150,000 unsecured term loan due 2026	7/17/2026	1.50% – 2.20%	1.35% – 2.25%

The Term Loan Due 2024 has a $130,000 accordion option and the Term Loan Due 2026 has a $100,000 accordion option that, collectively, allow us, at our election, to increase the total of the Term Loan Due 2024 and Term Loan Due 2026 up to $500,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions, including the absence of an event of default as defined in the term loan agreement and (ii) our ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

The Term Loan Due 2023 has a $100,000 accordion option that allows us, at our election, to increase the Term Loan Due 2023 up to $300,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions, including the absence of an event of default as defined in the amended term loan agreement and (ii) our ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

Our unsecured revolving line of credit and unsecured term loans each bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread, which is based on leverage grids. To the extent that our leverage ratio increases, the applicable credit spread will increase according to the tiers of each respective leverage grid. Based on our unsecured revolving line of credit and unsecured term loans balance of $1,569,704 as of March 31, 2020, the resulting increase in our leverage ratio and related movement to a higher tier on each respective leverage grid is expected to increase the weighted average credit spread portion of the interest rate by 0.11% applicable to the $1,569,704 balance for, at a minimum, the next quarterly compliance period under our debt agreements. Additionally, the facility fee on our unsecured revolving line of credit is expected to increase by 0.05% due to the increase in our leverage ratio and related movement to a higher tier on the leverage grid.

(b) Excludes capitalized loan fees of $(3,208), net of accumulated amortization, as of March 31, 2020. The following variable rate term loans have been swapped to fixed rate debt: (i) $250,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt has been swapped to a fixed rate of 2.00% plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid through January 5, 2021; (ii) $200,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt has been swapped to a fixed rate of 2.85% plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid through November 22, 2023; (iii) $120,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt has been swapped to a fixed rate of 1.68% plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid through July 17, 2024; and (iv) $150,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt has been swapped to a fixed rate of 1.77% plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid through July 17, 2026. As of March 31, 2020, the applicable credit spread for (i), (ii) and (iii) was 1.20% and for (iv) was 1.50%.

(c) Excludes discount of $(586) and capitalized loan fees of $(2,994), net of accumulated amortization, as of March 31, 2020.

(d) The weighted average years to maturity of consolidated indebtedness was 3.7 years as of March 31, 2020.

(e) Represents interest rate as of March 31, 2020.

Our unsecured debt agreements, consisting of the (i) unsecured credit agreement governing the Unsecured Credit Facility, (ii) amended term loan agreement governing the Term Loan Due 2023, (iii) term loan agreement governing the Term Loan Due 2024 and Term Loan Due 2026, (iv) note purchase agreement governing the 4.12% senior unsecured notes due 2021 and the 4.58% senior unsecured notes due 2024 (Notes Due 2021 and 2024), (v) indenture, as supplemented, governing the 4.00% senior unsecured notes due 2025 (Notes Due 2025), (vi) note purchase agreement governing the 4.08% senior unsecured notes due 2026 and the 4.24% senior unsecured notes due 2028 (Notes Due 2026 and 2028), and (vii) note purchase agreement governing the 4.82% senior unsecured notes due 2029 (Notes Due 2029), contain customary representations, warranties and covenants, and events of default. These include financial covenants such as (i) maximum unencumbered, secured and consolidated leverage ratios; (ii) minimum interest coverage ratios; (iii) minimum fixed charge coverage ratios; (iv) minimum unencumbered interest coverage ratios; (v) minimum debt service coverage ratio; and (vi) minimum unencumbered assets to unsecured debt ratio. All financial covenants that include operating results, or derivations thereof, in the covenant calculations are based on the most recent four fiscal quarters of activity. As such, the impact of short-term relative adverse operating results, if any, on our financial covenants is partially mitigated by previous and/or subsequent operating results. As of March 31, 2020, management believes we were in compliance with the financial covenants and default provisions under the unsecured debt agreements.

We plan on addressing our debt maturities through a combination of (i) cash flows from operations, (ii) working capital, including cash on hand of $769,241 as of March 31, 2020, and (iii) capital markets transactions.

Distributions and Equity Transactions

Our distributions of current and accumulated earnings and profits for U.S. federal income tax purposes are taxable to shareholders, generally, as ordinary income. Distributions in excess of these earnings and profits generally are treated as a non-taxable reduction

37

of the shareholders’ basis in the shares to the extent thereof (non-dividend distributions) and thereafter as taxable gain. We intend to continue to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) generally requires that a REIT annually distributes to its shareholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains. The Code imposes tax on any undistributed REIT taxable income.

To satisfy the requirements for qualification as a REIT and generally not be subject to U.S. federal income and excise tax, we intend to make distributions of all, or substantially all, of our taxable income to shareholders. Our future distributions will be at the discretion of our board of directors and are required to be declared 10 days prior to the record date. When determining the amount of future distributions, we expect to consider, among other factors, (i) the amount of cash generated from our operating activities, (ii) our expectations of future cash flow, (iii) our determination of near-term cash needs for debt repayments and potential future share repurchases, (iv) the market of available acquisitions of new properties and redevelopment, expansion and pad development opportunities, (v) the timing of significant re-leasing activities and the establishment of additional cash reserves for anticipated tenant allowances and general property capital improvements, (vi) our ability to continue to access additional sources of capital, and (vii) the amount required to be distributed to maintain our status as a REIT, which is a requirement of our unsecured credit agreement, and to avoid or minimize any income and excise taxes that we otherwise would be required to pay. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to make distributions in excess of cash available for distribution in order to meet the REIT distribution requirements.

In order to preserve and enhance liquidity and capital positioning, our board of directors has temporarily suspended future quarterly dividend payments on our outstanding Class A common stock. Our board of directors will evaluate dividend declaration decisions quarterly and consider REIT taxable income distribution requirements in these deliberations. The timing and amount of dividend resumption depends largely on our operating cash flow performance as well as other factors.

We have an existing common stock repurchase program under which we may repurchase, from time to time, up to a maximum of $500,000 of shares of our Class A common stock. The shares may be repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions and are canceled upon repurchase. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price in absolute terms and in relation to the value of our assets, corporate and regulatory requirements, market conditions and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. The common stock repurchase program may be suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice. We did not repurchase any shares during the three months ended March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2020, $189,105 remained available for repurchases of shares of our common stock under our common stock repurchase program.

Capital Expenditures and Redevelopment Activity

We anticipate that obligations related to capital improvements and redevelopments, including expansions and pad developments, can be met with (i) cash flows from operations, (ii) working capital, including cash on hand of $769,241 as of March 31, 2020, and (iii) capital markets transactions.

As of March 31, 2020, we have active expansion and redevelopment projects at Circle East, One Loudoun Downtown, The Shoppes at Quarterfield and a vacant pad development at Southlake Town Square. To date, we have invested a total of approximately $45,000 in these projects, which is net of proceeds of $11,820 from the sale of air rights at Circle East and net of contributions from our joint venture partner at One Loudoun Downtown. These projects are at various stages of completion, and based on our current plans and estimates, we anticipate that it will require approximately $133,000 to $147,000 of additional investment from us to complete these projects. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we halted plans for vertical construction at our Carillon redevelopment in response to current macroeconomic conditions due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and have materially reduced the planned scope and spend for the project, driving a reduction in our expected 2020 redevelopment spend of approximately $75,000 to $100,000. As of March 31, 2020, we were actively completing site work preparation at Carillon in anticipation of potential future development at the site. We expect to complete the site work preparation during 2020 for an expected additional capital investment of approximately $4,500.

We capitalized $626 and $675 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in capital upgrades and tenant improvements during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We also capitalized $60 and $54 of internal leasing incentives, all of which were incremental to signed leases, during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

38

In addition, we capitalized $1,316 and $574 of indirect project costs, which includes, among other costs, $372 and $365 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the redevelopment projects and $785 and $144 of interest, related to expansion and redevelopment projects during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Dispositions

The following table highlights our property dispositions during 2019 and the three months ended March 31, 2020:

	Number of Properties Sold	Square Footage	Consideration		Aggregate Proceeds, Net (a)		Debt Extinguished
2020 Disposition (through March 31, 2020)	1	105,900	$	13,900	$	11,343	$	—
2019 Dispositions	2	236,100	$	44,750	$	39,594	$	—

(a) Represents total consideration net of transaction costs, as well as capital and tenant-related costs credited to the buyer at close, as applicable.

In addition to the transactions presented in the preceding table, during the year ended December 31, 2019, we received net proceeds of $5,062 in connection with the second and third phases of the sale of a land parcel, which included rights to develop 22 residential units, at One Loudoun Downtown.

Acquisitions

The following table highlights our asset acquisitions during 2019 and the three months ended March 31, 2020:

	Number of Assets Acquired	Square Footage	Acquisition Price		Mortgage Debt
2020 Acquisition (through March 31, 2020) (a)	1	154,700	$	55,000	$	—
2019 Acquisitions (b)	3	73,600	$	29,976	$	—

(a) 2020 acquisition is the fee interest in our Fullerton Metrocenter multi-tenant retail operating property. In connection with this acquisition, we also assumed the lessor position in a ground lease with a shadow anchor. The total number of properties in our portfolio was not affected by this transaction.

(b) In addition to the acquisition of one multi-tenant retail operating property, 2019 acquisitions include the purchase of the following that did not affect our property count: (i) a parcel adjacent to our Paradise Valley Marketplace multi-tenant retail operating property and (ii) a single-user parcel at our Southlake Town Square multi-tenant retail operating property.

Summary of Cash Flows

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020			2019			Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	35,042		$	36,955		$	(1,913	)
Net cash used in investing activities	(70,507		)	(28,186		)	(42,321		)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities	795,382			(10,830		)	806,212
Increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	759,917			(2,061		)	761,978
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, at beginning of period	14,447			19,601
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, at end of period	$	774,364		$	17,540

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities consist primarily of net income from property operations, adjusted for the following, among others: (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) provision for impairment of investment properties and (iii) gain on sales of investment properties. Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 decreased $1,913 primarily due to the following:

• a $937 increase in cash paid for leasing fees and inducements;

• a $337 increase in cash bonuses paid related to the results of 2019; and

• ordinary course fluctuations in working capital accounts;

partially offset by

39

• a $1,953 decrease in cash paid for interest; and

• an $813 increase in NOI, consisting of an increase in Same Store NOI of $979, partially offset by a decrease in NOI from properties that were sold or held for sale in 2019 and 2020 and other properties not included in our same store portfolio of $166.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we distributed $35,387 to common shareholders, which is $345 in excess of net cash provided by operating activities during the period. This is primarily driven by the timing of ordinary course annual real estate tax payments. We used existing cash and cash equivalents in addition to net cash flows provided by operating activities to fund such distributions.

As a result of COVID-19, a number of our tenants have announced temporary closures of their stores or modifications of their operations. While working to preserve our cash flow, we are also working with our tenants regarding requests for lease concessions. While we have not yet reached agreement with tenants regarding concession requests, certain tenants have not paid or only partially paid their April rent and other charges. As of April 30, 2020, we have collected more than 52% of April rent charges. We will continue to work with tenants regarding lease concession requests, which may or may not include some element of rent deferral and, in some cases, partial rent abatement. While seeking to work toward a mutually agreeable outcome with tenants directly impacted by COVID-19, we believe that certain tenants, which remain open and hold an ability to pay, have elected to withhold April rent unnecessarily. We are not forgoing our contractual rights under our lease agreements and our tenants do not have a clear contractual right to cease paying rent due to government closures. However, COVID-19 and the related governmental orders present fairly novel situations and it is possible government action could impact our rights.

Management believes that cash flows from operations and existing cash and cash equivalents will provide sufficient liquidity to sustain future operations; however, we cannot provide any such assurances.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Cash flows from investing activities consist primarily of cash paid to purchase investment properties and fund capital expenditures, tenant improvements and developments in progress, net of proceeds from the sales of investment properties. Net cash flows from investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 decreased $42,321 due to the following:

• a $29,766 increase in cash paid to purchase investment properties;

• a $10,262 decrease in proceeds from the sales of investment properties; and

• a $6,874 increase in investment in developments in progress;

partially offset by

• a $4,581 decrease in capital expenditures and tenant improvements.

For 2020, we expect to fund redevelopment, expansion and pad development activities, capital expenditures and tenant improvements through (i) cash flows generated from operations, (ii) working capital, including cash on hand of $769,241 as of March 31, 2020, and (iii) capital markets transactions.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash flows from financing activities primarily consist of proceeds from our unsecured revolving line of credit, partially offset by (i) repayments of our unsecured revolving line of credit, (ii) distribution payments, (iii) principal payments on mortgages payable and (iv) payment of loan fees and deposits. Net cash flows from financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased $806,212 primarily due to the following:

• an $805,704 change in the activity on our unsecured revolving line of credit from net proceeds of $26,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to net proceeds of $831,704 during the three months ended March 31, 2020; and

• a $145 decrease in principal payments on mortgages payable.

We plan to continue to address our debt maturities through a combination of (i) cash flows from operations, (ii) working capital, including cash on hand of $769,241 as of March 31, 2020, and (iii) capital markets transactions.

40

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, except as otherwise disclosed herein, there were no material changes outside the normal course of business to the contractual obligations identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K contains a description of our critical accounting policies, including those relating to the acquisition of investment properties, impairment of long-lived assets and lease income. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, there were no significant changes to these policies.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent to March 31, 2020, we:

• terminated the joint venture related to the medical office building portion of the redevelopment at Carillon; and

• executed amendments to our unsecured debt agreements for our Unsecured Credit Facility, Term Loan Due 2023, Term Loan Due 2024 and Term Loan Due 2026 that changed the covenant calculation for the unencumbered interest coverage ratio to include operating results from the most recent four fiscal quarters. Prior to these amendments, the calculation only included operating results from the most recent fiscal quarter. As a result, the updated calculation applies to all unsecured debt instruments to which this covenant relates, including our unsecured revolving line of credit, all unsecured term loans and all unsecured private placement notes payable.

On May 1, 2020, our board of directors temporarily suspended future quarterly dividend payments on our outstanding Class A common stock in order to preserve and enhance liquidity and capital positioning. Our board of directors will evaluate dividend declaration decisions quarterly and consider REIT taxable income distribution requirements in these deliberations. The timing and amount of dividend resumption depends largely on our operating cash flow performance as well as other factors.

41

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We may be exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of our long-term debt that is used to maintain liquidity and fund our operations. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives, we borrow primarily at fixed rates, and in some cases variable rates with the ability to convert to fixed rates.

With regard to variable rate financing, we assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We maintain risk management control systems to monitor interest rate cash flow risk attributable to both our outstanding or forecasted debt obligations as well as our potential offsetting hedge positions. The risk management control systems involve the use of analytical techniques, including cash flow sensitivity analysis, to estimate the expected impact of changes in interest rates on our future cash flows.

As of March 31, 2020, we had $720,000 of variable rate debt based on LIBOR that has been swapped to fixed rate debt through interest rate swaps. Our interest rate swaps as of March 31, 2020 are summarized in the following table:

	Notional Amount		Maturity Date	Fair Value of Derivative Liability
Unsecured credit facility term loan due 2021	$	250,000	January 5, 2021	$	3,158
Term Loan Due 2023	200,000		November 22, 2023	18,124
Term Loan Due 2024	120,000		July 17, 2024	6,672
Term Loan Due 2026	150,000		July 17, 2026	11,916
	$	720,000		$	39,870

For a discussion concerning the scheduled debt maturities and principal amortization of our indebtedness as of March 31, 2020 for the remainder of 2020, each of the next four years and thereafter and the weighted average interest rates by year to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes, refer to Note 7 – Debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and Part I, “Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources — Debt Maturities” contained herein.

A decrease of 1% in market interest rates would result in a hypothetical increase in our derivative liability of approximately $25,013.

The combined carrying amount of our debt is approximately $19,996 higher than the fair value as of March 31, 2020.

We had $849,704 of variable rate debt, excluding $720,000 of variable rate debt that has been swapped to fixed rate debt, with an interest rate of 2.04% based upon LIBOR as of March 31, 2020. An increase in the variable interest rate on this debt constitutes a market risk. If interest rates increase by 1% based on debt outstanding as of March 31, 2020, interest expense would increase by approximately $8,497 on an annualized basis.

We may use additional derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates. To the extent we do, we are exposed to market and credit risk. Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes us, which creates credit risk for us. When the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we owe the counterparty and, therefore, we generally are not exposed to the credit risk of the counterparty. We minimize credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with highly rated counterparties or with the same party providing the financing, with the right of offset.

When LIBOR is discontinued, the interest rate for certain of our debt instruments, including our unsecured credit facility term loan due 2021, unsecured credit facility revolving line of credit, Term Loan Due 2023, Term Loan Due 2024 and Term Loan Due 2026, and interest rate swap agreements that are indexed to LIBOR will be based on a replacement rate or an alternate base rate as specified in the applicable documentation governing such debt or swaps or as otherwise agreed upon. Such an event would not affect our ability to borrow or maintain already outstanding borrowings or swaps, but the replacement rate or alternate base rate could be higher or more volatile than LIBOR prior to its discontinuance. We understand that LIBOR is expected to remain available through the end of 2021.

42

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify our financial reports and to the members of senior management and the board of directors.

Based on management’s evaluation as of March 31, 2020, our Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes to our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

43

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are subject, from time to time, to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the resolution of such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe, based on currently available information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Except to the extent updated below or to the extent additional factual information disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relates to such 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 have been no material changes to our risk factors during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to those risk factors presented in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019:

The current novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and measures intended to prevent its spread has caused, and could continue to cause, severe disruptions in the U.S., regional and global economies, and could materially and adversely impact our cash flow, financial condition and results of operations.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic. COVID-19 has caused, and could continue to cause, significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economy and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. The global impact of the COVID-19 outbreak has been rapidly evolving and many U.S. states and cities, including where we own properties and/or have development sites, have imposed measures intended to control its spread, such as instituting “shelter-in-place” rules and restrictions on the types of businesses that may continue to operate and/or the types of construction projects that may continue. As a result of these measures, a number of our tenants have announced temporary closures of their stores or modifications of their operations and requested lease concessions. In addition, in response to macroeconomic conditions, we halted plans for vertical construction at our Carillon redevelopment and temporarily suspended future quarterly dividend payments. Furthermore, we withdrew guidance for 2020 and nearly fully drew on our $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit to enhance our liquidity and provide maximum financial flexibility as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to evolve and impact the global financial markets.

The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our business, operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of such pandemic, actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, all of which could vary by geographic region in which our properties are located. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the full adverse impact of COVID-19. Nevertheless, COVID-19 may materially adversely affect our cash flow, financial condition and results of operations, and it may also have the effect of heightening many of the risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, including:

• a complete or partial closure of, or a decrease in customer traffic at, one or more of our properties, which has and could continue to adversely affect our operations and those of our tenants;

• reduced economic activity impacting the businesses, financial condition and liquidity of our tenants, which has caused and could continue to cause one or more of our tenants, including certain significant tenants, to be unable to meet their rent payment or other obligations to us in full, or at all, or to otherwise seek modifications of such obligations or declare bankruptcy;

• decreases in consumer discretionary spending and consumer confidence during the pandemic, as well as a decrease in individuals’ willingness to frequent our properties once reopened as a result of the public health risks and social impacts of such outbreak, which could affect the ability of our properties to generate sufficient revenues to meet operating and other expenses in the short and long term;

• inability to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-let space as leases expire on favorable terms, or at all, which could cause interruptions or delays in the receipt of rental payments or the non-receipt of rental payments;

• state, local or industry-initiated efforts, such as a rent freeze for tenants or a suspension of a landlord’s ability to enforce evictions, which may affect our ability to collect rent or enforce remedies for the failure to pay rent;

• severe disruption and instability in the U.S. and global financial markets or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions, which may affect our ability to access capital on attractive terms or at all;

44

• a reduction in cash flows, which could impact our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders;

• our ability to remain in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in our unsecured credit agreement and other debt agreements, which non-compliance could result in a default and, potentially, an acceleration of such indebtedness;

• a general decline in business activity and demand for real estate transactions, which could adversely affect the value of our portfolio and our ability or desire to make strategic acquisitions or dispositions;

• disruptions in the supply of materials or products or the inability of contractors to perform on a timely basis or at all, including as a result of restrictions on construction activity due to containment measures, which could cause delays in completing ongoing or future construction, expansion or redevelopment projects;

• the potential negative impact on the health of our employees or the employees of our tenants, particularly if a significant number of our or their executive management team or key employees are impacted, which could result in a deterioration in our and our tenants’ ability to ensure business continuity during a disruption;

• any inability to effectively manage our portfolio and operations while working remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic and for a time after such pandemic, which could adversely impact our business; and

• the limited access to our facilities, management, tenants, support staff and professional advisors, which could decrease the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting, increase our susceptibility to security breaches, or hamper our ability to comply with regulatory obligations leading to reputational harm and regulatory issues or fines.

There have been no other material changes to our risk factors during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to those risk factors presented in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Exhibit 10.1

FIRST AMENDMENT TO FIFTH AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT

This First Amendment to Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (this “Amendment”) is made as of May 4, 2020, among RETAIL PROPERTIES OF AMERICA, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Maryland (the “Borrower”), KEYBANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and each of the Lenders (as defined in the Loan Agreement referenced in the recitals below) party hereto.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders have entered into a certain Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of April 23, 2018 (as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, collectively, the “Loan Agreement”) wherein the Lenders agreed to provide revolving commitments and term loans to Borrower in the aggregate initial principal amount of $850,000,000 and $250,000,000, respectively, evidenced by those certain Notes (as defined in the Loan Agreement, collectively, the “Note”) made by Borrower in favor of each Lender; and

WHEREAS, Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders have agreed to amend the Loan Agreement as set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Defined Terms; References. Unless otherwise specifically defined herein, each term used herein that is defined in the Loan Agreement has the meaning assigned to such term in the Loan Agreement. Each reference to “hereof”, “hereunder”, “herein” and “hereby” and each other similar reference and each reference to “this Amendment” and each other similar reference contained in the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents shall, after this Amendment becomes effective, refer to the Loan Agreement as amended hereby.

2.Amendments to Loan Agreement.

(a)Article I of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended to delete the defined term “Unencumbered Interest Coverage Ratio”, and to insert the following definition in place thereof:

“Unencumbered Interest Coverage Ratio” means, as of any date, the aggregate Unencumbered Pool Property NOI as of such date divided by the Unsecured Interest Expense for the most recent four (4) fiscal quarters for which financial results have been reported.” 

(b)The Loan Agreement is hereby further amended by adding a new Article XV as follows:

“ARTICLE XV. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT REGARDING ANY SUPPORTED QFCS

15.1. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Related Swap Obligations or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a)     In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(b)    As used in this Section 15.1, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §252.82(b);

2

(a) Excludes 815 shares of unvested restricted common stock as of March 31, 2020, which equate to 677 shares on a weighted average basis for the three months ended March 31, 2020. These shares will continue to be excluded from the computation of basic EPS until contingencies are resolved and the shares are released.

(b) Excludes 667 shares of unvested restricted common stock as of March 31, 2019, which equate to 602 shares on a weighted average basis for the three months ended March 31, 2019. These shares were excluded from the computation of basic EPS as the contingencies remained and the shares had not been released as of the end of the reporting period.

(c) There were outstanding options to purchase 16 and 22 shares of common stock as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, at a weighted average exercise price of $15.87 and $17.34, respectively. Of these totals, outstanding options to purchase 16 and 18 shares of common stock as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, at a weighted average exercise price of $15.87 and $18.58, respectively, have been excluded from the common shares used in calculating diluted EPS as including them would be anti-dilutive.

(d) As of March 31, 2020, there were 974 RSUs eligible for future conversion upon completion of the performance periods (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements), which equate to 969 RSUs on a weighted average basis for the three months ended March 31, 2020. These contingently issuable shares have been excluded from the common shares used in calculating diluted EPS as including them would be anti-dilutive.

(e)

As of March 31, 2019, there were 839 RSUs eligible for future conversion upon completion of the performance periods, which equate to 832 RSUs on a weighted average basis for the three months ended March 31, 2019. These contingently issuable shares are a component of calculating diluted EPS.

Subject to continued employment, in 2023, following the performance period which concludes on December 31, 2022, one-third of the RSUs that are earned will convert into shares of common stock and two-thirds will convert into restricted shares with a one year vesting term.

(b) On February 10, 2020, 196 RSUs converted into 105 shares of common stock and 175 restricted shares that will vest on December 31, 2020, subject to continued employment through such date, after applying a conversion rate of 142.5% based upon the Company’s Total Shareholder Return (TSR) relative to the TSRs of its peer companies for the performance period that concluded on December 31, 2019.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments:

	March 31, 2020				December 31, 2019
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Financial liabilities:
Mortgages payable, net	$	93,562	$	95,831	$	94,155	$	98,082
Unsecured notes payable, net	$	796,420	$	788,109	$	796,247	$	822,883
Unsecured term loans, net	$	716,792	$	711,013	$	716,523	$	720,000
Unsecured revolving line of credit	$	849,704	$	841,529	$	18,000	$	18,000
Derivative liability	$	39,870	$	39,870	$	12,288	$	12,288

The carrying value of the derivative liability is included within “Other liabilities” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents the Company’s financial instruments, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these instruments are described after the table.

	Fair Value
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
March 31, 2020
Derivative liability	$	—	$	39,870	$	—	$	39,870
December 31, 2019
Derivative liability	$	—	$	12,288	$	—	$	12,288

Derivatives:  The fair value of the derivative liability is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected future cash flows of each derivative. This analysis uses observable market data including forward yield curves and implied volatilities to determine the market’s expectation of the future cash flows of the variable component. The fixed and variable components of the derivative are then discounted using calculated discount factors developed based on the LIBOR swap rate and are aggregated to arrive at a single valuation for the period. The Company also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered any applicable credit enhancements. The Company’s derivative instruments are further described in Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company did not remeasure any assets to fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of March 31, 2020. The following table presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2019, aggregated by the level within the fair value hierarchy in which those measurements fall. The table includes information related to properties remeasured to fair value as a result of impairment charges recorded during the year ended December 31, 2019, except for those properties sold prior to December 31, 2019. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these assets as of December 31, 2019 are described after the table.

	Fair Value
	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3			Total		Provision for Impairment
December 31, 2019
Investment properties	$	—	$	11,644	(a)	$	5,300	(b)	$	16,944	$	12,298

(a) Represents the fair value of the Company’s King Philip’s Crossing investment property as of December 31, 2019, the date the asset was measured at fair value. The estimated fair value of King Philip’s Crossing was based upon the expected sales price from an executed sales contract and determined to be a Level 2 input.

(b) Represents the fair value of the Company’s Streets of Yorktown investment property as of September 30, 2019, the date the asset was measured at fair value. The estimated fair value of Streets of Yorktown was determined using the income approach. The income approach involves discounting the estimated income stream and reversion (presumed sale) value of a property over an estimated holding period to a present value at a risk-adjusted rate. The discount rates and third-party comparable sales prices used in this approach are derived from property-specific information, market transactions and other industry data and are considered significant inputs to this valuation. The reversion value of the property was based upon third-party comparable sales prices, which contain unobservable inputs used by these third parties. A weighted average discount rate of 6.89% was used to (i) present value the estimated income stream over the estimated holding period and (ii) present value the reversion value.

The Company estimates the fair value of its Level 3 financial liabilities using a discounted cash flow model that incorporates future contractual principal and interest payments. The Company estimates the fair value of its mortgages payable, net and Level 3 unsecured notes payable, net by discounting the anticipated future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered to the Company by its lenders for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities. The Company estimates the fair value of its unsecured term loans, net and unsecured revolving line of credit by discounting the anticipated future cash flows at a reference rate, currently one-month LIBOR, plus an applicable credit spread currently offered to the Company by its lenders for similar instruments of comparable maturities. The following rates were used in the discounted cash flow model to calculate the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities:

	March 31, 2020	December 31, 2019
Mortgages payable, net – range of discount rates used	3.6% to 4.1%	3.2% to 3.6%
Unsecured notes payable, net – weighted average discount rate used	4.72%	3.79%
Unsecured term loans, net – weighted average credit spread portion of discount rate used	1.75%	1.26%
Unsecured revolving line of credit – credit spread portion of discount rate used	1.63%	1.05%

There were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivatives

DERIVATIVES

The Company’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and add stability to interest expense. To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed rate payments over the life of the agreement without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company has 11 interest rate swaps to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable rate debt. Changes in fair value of the derivatives that are designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” and are reclassified into interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate debt. Over the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $12,010 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate swaps as of March 31, 2020, which effectively convert one-month floating rate LIBOR to a fixed rate:

Number of Instruments	Effective Date	Aggregate Notional		Fixed Interest Rate		Maturity Date
Three	December 29, 2017	$	250,000	2.00	%	January 5, 2021
Two	November 23, 2018	$	200,000	2.85	%	November 22, 2023

Three	August 15, 2019	$	150,000	1.77	%	July 17, 2026

The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Organization and Basis of Presentation

ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Retail Properties of America, Inc. (the Company) was formed on March 5, 2003 and its primary purpose is to own and operate high quality, strategically located open-air shopping centers, including properties with a mixed-use component. As of March 31, 2020, the Company owned 102 retail operating properties in the United States.

The Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). The Company believes it qualifies for taxation as a REIT and, as such, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to its shareholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income, property or net worth and U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company has one wholly owned subsidiary that has jointly elected to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS) and is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes at regular corporate tax rates. The income tax expense incurred by the TRS did not have a material impact on the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. For example, significant estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to capitalization of development costs, provision for impairment, including estimates of holding periods, capitalization rates and discount rates (where applicable), and initial valuations and related amortization periods of deferred costs and intangibles, particularly with respect to property acquisitions and initial recognition of right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

All share amounts and dollar amounts in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, are stated in thousands with the exception of per share, per square foot and per unit amounts.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all wholly owned subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities (VIEs). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Wholly owned subsidiaries generally consist of limited liability companies, limited partnerships and statutory trusts.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic. COVID-19 has caused significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economy and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. The global impact of the COVID-19 outbreak has been rapidly evolving and many U.S. states and cities, including where the Company owns properties and/or has development sites, have imposed measures intended to control its spread, such as instituting “shelter-in-place” rules and restrictions on the types of businesses that may continue to operate and/or the types of construction projects that may continue. While the Company did not incur significant disruptions to its lease income and occupancy during the three months ended March 31, 2020 from COVID-19, the Company continues to closely monitor the impact of the pandemic on all aspects of its business. Due to numerous uncertainties, it is not possible to accurately predict the impact the pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. To date, as a result of the pandemic and the measures noted above to mitigate its impact, a number of the Company’s tenants have announced temporary closures of their stores or modifications of their operations and requested lease concessions. Generally, the Company has not yet reached agreement with tenants regarding concession requests, as discussions are ongoing. Certain other tenants are considered essential businesses which remain open and continue to operate during this time. Except for a small, enclosed portion of one property, the Company has not closed any of its properties and continues to operate them for the benefit of the communities and customers that the Company’s tenants serve.

The Company’s property ownership as of March 31, 2020 is summarized below:

	Property Count
Retail operating properties	102
Expansion and redevelopment projects:
Circle East	1
One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H (a)	—

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question-and-answer (Q&A) document focusing on the application of the lease guidance in ASC 842, Leases, for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The FASB staff noted that due to the business disruptions and challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, many lessors are, or will be, providing lease concessions such as payment forgiveness and deferral of payments. Changes to lease payments that are not stipulated in the original lease contract are generally accounted for as lease modifications under ASC 842. Within the Q&A, the FASB staff provides relief for lease concessions offered as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and does not require these concessions to be accounted for in accordance with the lease modification guidance in ASC 842. Under existing lease guidance, the Company would determine, on a lease by lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement with the tenant or if it was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the lease agreement. Under the relief guidance, a company can account for the concessions (i) as if no changes to the existing lease contract were made or (ii) as a variable lease adjustment. The Q&A allows the Company, if certain criteria have been met, 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. This election is optional and available for concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that result in the total payments required by the modified contract being substantially the same as or less than the total payments required by the existing contract. The Company expects to apply the lease modification relief, however, the Q&A has not had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as the Company has not yet reached agreement with tenants regarding any concession requests, as discussions are ongoing. The future impact is dependent upon the extent of lease concessions granted to tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in future periods and the elections made by the Company at the time of entering such concessions.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a summary of its significant accounting policies. Except as disclosed below, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies in the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. This new guidance was effective January 1, 2020 and replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. Financial assets that are measured at amortized cost are required to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected with an allowance for credit losses deducted from the amortized cost basis. In addition, an entity must consider broader information in developing its expected credit loss estimate, including the use of forecasted information. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of this new guidance. Generally, the pronouncement requires a modified retrospective method of adoption. The adoption of this pronouncement on January 1, 2020 did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as it did not have any financial assets within the scope of this guidance.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement. This new guidance was effective January 1, 2020 and provides new and, in some cases, eliminates or modifies the previously existing disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. Public entities are now required to disclose the following: (i) the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and (ii) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. In addition, public entities are no longer required to disclose the following: (i) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, (ii) the policy for timing of transfers between levels and (iii) the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The new pronouncement also clarifies and modifies certain existing provisions to promote the appropriate exercise of discretion by entities when considering fair value measurement disclosures and clarifies that materiality is an appropriate consideration when evaluating disclosure requirements. As permitted by the new pronouncement, the Company removed the discussion of its valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company did not remove any other disclosures as it did not have any transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the current and comparative periods. The adoption of this pronouncement on January 1, 2020 did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The amended disclosure guidance will be applied prospectively.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform. This temporary guidance is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 to ease potential burdens related to the accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform on financial reporting. The guidance provides optional expedients for applying existing GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships affected by the move of global capital markets away from interbank offered rates, most notably the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Specifically, the guidance allows for certain changes in critical terms of a designated hedging instrument or hedged item as a result of reference rate reform to not result in the dedesignation of the hedging relationship. In addition, the optional expedients related to probability and effectiveness assessments allow companies to disregard certain economic mismatches in a hedging relationship arising due to reference rate reform until both the derivative and hedged transactions have completed the transition, where current GAAP requires those mismatches to be modeled into the assessment of effectiveness.

The Company adopted this guidance as of the effective date and elected to apply the optional expedients related to probability and effectiveness prospectively. The Company has not modified any hedging relationship and has disregarded the potential economic mismatches in hedging relationships due to reference rate reform during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question-and-answer (Q&A) document focusing on the application of the lease guidance in ASC 842, Leases, for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The FASB staff noted that due to the business disruptions and challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, many lessors are, or will be, providing lease concessions such as payment forgiveness and deferral of payments. Changes to lease payments that are not stipulated in the original lease contract are generally accounted for as lease modifications under ASC 842. Within the Q&A, the FASB staff provides relief for lease concessions offered as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and does not require these concessions to be accounted for in accordance with the lease modification guidance in ASC 842. Under existing lease guidance, the Company would determine, on a lease by lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement with the tenant or if it was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the lease agreement. Under the relief guidance, a company can account for the concessions (i) as if no changes to the existing lease contract were made or (ii) as a variable lease adjustment. The Q&A allows the Company, if certain criteria have been met, 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. This election is optional and available for concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that result in the total payments required by the modified contract being substantially the same as or less than the total payments required by the existing contract. The Company expects to apply the lease modification relief, however, the Q&A has not had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as the Company has not yet reached agreement with tenants regarding any concession requests, as discussions are ongoing. The future impact is dependent upon the extent of lease concessions granted to tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in future periods and the elections made by the Company at the time of entering such concessions.

Subsequent Events

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to March 31, 2020, the Company:

• terminated the joint venture related to the medical office building portion of the redevelopment at Carillon; and

• executed amendments to its unsecured debt agreements for its Unsecured Credit Facility, Term Loan Due 2023, Term Loan Due 2024 and Term Loan Due 2026 that changed the covenant calculation for the unencumbered interest coverage ratio to include operating results from the most recent four fiscal quarters. Prior to these amendments, the calculation only included operating results from the most recent fiscal quarter. As a result, the updated calculation applies to all unsecured debt instruments to which this covenant relates, including the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit, all unsecured term loans and all unsecured private placement notes payable.

On May 1, 2020, the Company’s board of directors temporarily suspended future quarterly dividend payments on the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock in order to preserve and enhance liquidity and capital positioning. The Company’s board of directors will evaluate dividend declaration decisions quarterly and consider REIT taxable income distribution requirements in these deliberations. The timing and amount of dividend resumption depends largely on the Company’s operating cash flow performance as well as other factors.

These acquisitions were funded using a combination of available cash on hand, proceeds from dispositions and proceeds from the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit. All of the acquisitions completed during 2020 and 2019 were considered asset acquisitions and, as such, transaction costs were capitalized upon closing.

In addition, the Company capitalized $626 and $675 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in capital upgrades and tenant improvements during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company also capitalized $60 and $54 of internal leasing incentives, all of which were incremental to signed leases, during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Developments in Progress

The carrying amount of the Company’s developments in progress are as follows:

Property Name	MSA	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Expansion and redevelopment projects:
Circle East (a)	Baltimore	$	34,665	$	33,628
One Loudoun Downtown	Washington, D.C.	36,346		27,868

(a) During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company received net proceeds of $11,820 in connection with the sale of air rights to a third party to develop multi-family rental units at Circle East, which is shown net in the “Developments in progress” balance as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In response to current macroeconomic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company halted plans for vertical construction at its Carillon redevelopment during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and has materially reduced the planned scope and spend for the project. As of March 31, 2020, the Company was actively completing site work preparation at the property in anticipation of potential future development at the site. The Company expects to complete the site work preparation during 2020 for an expected additional capital investment of approximately $4,500.

The Company capitalized $1,316 and $574 of indirect project costs related to redevelopment projects during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, including, among other costs, $372 and $365 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the redevelopment projects and $785 and $144 of interest, respectively.

Variable Interest Entities

As of January 1, 2020, the Company had joint ventures related to the development, ownership and operation of the (i) multi-family rental portion of the expansion project at One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H, of which joint venture the Company owned 90%; (ii) multi-family rental portion of the redevelopment project at Carillon, of which joint venture the Company owned 95%, and (iii) medical office building portion of the redevelopment project at Carillon, of which joint venture the Company owned 95%.

The joint ventures are considered VIEs primarily because the Company’s joint venture partners do not have substantive kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. The Company is considered the primary beneficiary as it has a controlling financial interest in each joint venture. As such, the Company has consolidated these joint ventures and presented the joint venture partners’ interests as noncontrolling interests.

As a result of halting the planned vertical construction at Carillon, the Company terminated the joint venture related to the multi-family rental portion of the redevelopment during the three months ended March 31, 2020. In accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreement, costs incurred prior to the termination were funded evenly by the partners and there was no payment between the partners upon termination. Subsequent to the termination, if the Company commences the redevelopment and uses the materials developed, or approvals obtained, by the joint venture, the Company is required to reimburse the partner’s costs incurred in connection with such materials or approvals. As a result of the termination, the Company reclassified the noncontrolling interest balance of $1,661 related to this multi-family rental joint venture from noncontrolling interests to additional paid-in capital within equity. There was no gain or loss recognized in connection with the termination. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, the Company terminated the joint venture related to the medical office building portion of the redevelopment at Carillon.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had recorded the following related to the consolidated joint ventures:

	March 31, 2020								December 31, 2019
	One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H		Carillon – Phase One Multi-family Rental		Carillon – Phase One Medical Office		Total		One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H		Carillon – Phase One Multi-family Rental		Carillon – Phase One Medical Office		Total
Net investment properties	$	29,715	$	—	$	885	$	30,600	$	8,830	$	2,940	$	675	$	12,445
Other assets, net	$	344	$	—	$	—	$	344	$	164	$	—	$	—	$	164
Other liabilities	$	3,066	$	—	$	167	$	3,233	$	1,546	$	32	$	129	$	1,707
Noncontrolling interests	$	2,699	$	—	$	359	$	3,058	$	1,869	$	1,454	$	273	$	3,596

Development costs are funded by the partners, including the Company, and/or construction loan financing throughout the construction period. Under terms defined in the joint venture agreements, after construction completion and stabilization of the respective development project, the Company has the ability to call, and the joint venture partner has the ability to put to the Company, subject to certain conditions, the joint venture partner’s interest in the respective joint venture at fair value. The Company has not provided financial support to these VIEs in excess of any amounts that it is contractually required to provide. There was no income from the joint venture projects during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and, as such, no income was attributed to the noncontrolling interests.

(a) $250,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt has been swapped to a fixed rate of 2.00% plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid ranging from 1.20% to 1.70% through January 5, 2021. The applicable credit spread was 1.20% as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(b) $200,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt has been swapped to a fixed rate of 2.85% plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid ranging from 1.20% to 1.85% through November 22, 2023. The applicable credit spread was 1.20% as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(c) $120,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt has been swapped to a fixed rate of 1.68% plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid ranging from 1.20% to 1.70% through July 17, 2024. The applicable credit spread was 1.20% as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(d) $150,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt has been swapped to a fixed rate of 1.77% plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid ranging from 1.50% to 2.20% through July 17, 2026. The applicable credit spread was 1.50% as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

The revolving line of credit has two six-month extension options that the Company can exercise, at its election, subject to (i) customary representations and warranties, including, but not limited to, the absence of an event of default as defined in the unsecured credit agreement and (ii) payment of an extension fee equal to 0.075% of the revolving line of credit capacity.

Unsecured Credit Facility

The Company has a $1,100,000 unsecured credit facility consisting of an $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit and a $250,000 unsecured term loan (Unsecured Credit Facility) that is priced on a leverage grid at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread. In accordance with the unsecured credit agreement, the Company may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of March 31, 2020, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, the Company has not made

the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company elected to increase its borrowings under its unsecured revolving line of credit to enhance its liquidity and provide maximum financial flexibility as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to evolve and impact the global financial markets. As a result, as of March 31, 2020, the Company’s $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit was nearly fully drawn.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the Unsecured Credit Facility:

				Leverage-Based Pricing		Investment Grade Pricing

$250,000 unsecured term loan due 2021	1/5/2021	N/A	N/A	1.20%–1.70%	N/A	0.90%–1.75%	N/A

The Unsecured Credit Facility has a $500,000 accordion option that allows the Company, at its election, to increase the total Unsecured Credit Facility up to $1,600,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions including, but not limited to, the absence of an event of default as defined in the unsecured credit agreement and (ii) the Company’s ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

Unsecured Term Loans

As of March 31, 2020, the Company has the following unsecured term loans: (i) a seven-year $200,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2023), (ii) a five-year $120,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2024) and (iii) a seven-year $150,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2026) each of which bears interest at a rate of LIBOR, adjusted based on applicable reserve percentages established by the Federal Reserve, plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid. In accordance with the respective term loan agreements, the Company may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of March 31, 2020, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, the Company has not made the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the unsecured term loans:

Unsecured Term Loans	Maturity Date	Leverage-Based Pricing Credit Spread				Investment Grade Pricing Credit Spread
$200,000 unsecured term loan due 2023	11/22/2023	1.20	%	–	1.85%	0.85	%	–	1.65%
$120,000 unsecured term loan due 2024	7/17/2024	1.20	%	–	1.70%	0.80	%	–	1.65%
$150,000 unsecured term loan due 2026	7/17/2026	1.50	%	–	2.20%	1.35	%	–	2.25%

The Term Loan Due 2024 has a $130,000 accordion option and the Term Loan Due 2026 has a $100,000 accordion option that, collectively, allow the Company, at its election, to increase the total of the Term Loan Due 2024 and Term Loan Due 2026 up to $500,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions, including the absence of an event of default as defined in the term loan agreement and (ii) the Company’s ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

The Term Loan Due 2023 has a $100,000 accordion option that allows the Company, at its election, to increase the Term Loan Due 2023 up to $300,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions, including the absence of an event of default as defined in the amended term loan agreement and (ii) the Company’s ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

Provision for Impairment of Investment Properties

PROVISION FOR IMPAIRMENT OF INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

As of March 31, 2020, the Company identified indicators of impairment at certain of its properties. Such indicators included a low occupancy rate, difficulty in leasing space and related cost of re-leasing, or significant change in the scope, cost or timing of planned redevelopment. As of March 31, 2019, the Company did not identify indicators of impairment at any of its properties. The following table summarizes the results of these analyses as of March 31, 2020.

	March 31, 2020
Number of properties for which indicators of impairment were identified	2
Less: number of properties for which an impairment charge was recorded	—
Less: number of properties that were held for sale as of the date the analysis was performed for which indicators of impairment were identified but no impairment charge was recorded	—
Remaining properties for which indicators of impairment were identified but no impairment charge was considered necessary	2
Weighted average percentage by which the projected undiscounted cash flows exceeded its respective carrying value for each of the remaining properties (a)	58	%

(a) Based upon the estimated holding period for each asset where an undiscounted cash flow analysis was performed.

The Company recorded the following investment property impairment charge during the three months ended March 31, 2020:

Property Name	Property Type	Impairment Date	Square Footage	Provision for Impairment of Investment Properties
King Philip’s Crossing (a)	Multi-tenant retail	February 13, 2020	105,900	$	346
				$	346
	Estimated fair value of impaired property as of impairment date			$	11,644

(a) The Company recorded an impairment charge on December 31, 2019 based upon the terms and conditions of an executed sales contract. This property was sold on February 13, 2020, at which time additional impairment was recognized pursuant to the terms and conditions of an executed sales contract.

The Company did not record any investment property impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The extent to which COVID-19 impacts the Company and its tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. If the effects of COVID-19 cause economic and market conditions to continue to deteriorate or if the Company’s expected holding period for assets change, subsequent tests for impairment could result in impairment charges in the future. As of March 31, 2020, the Company does not consider the impacts of COVID-19, including tenant requests for lease concessions, to be impairment indicators. However, indications of a tenant’s inability to continue as a going concern, changes in the Company’s view or strategy relative to a tenant’s business or industry as a result of COVID-19, or changes in the Company’s long-term hold strategies could change in future periods. The Company will continue to monitor circumstances and events in future periods and can provide no assurance that material impairment charges with respect to its investment properties will not occur in future periods.

Schedule of assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

The Company did not remeasure any assets to fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of March 31, 2020. The following table presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2019, aggregated by the level within the fair value hierarchy in which those measurements fall. The table includes information related to properties remeasured to fair value as a result of impairment charges recorded during the year ended December 31, 2019, except for those properties sold prior to December 31, 2019. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these assets as of December 31, 2019 are described after the table.

	Fair Value

December 31, 2019
Investment properties	$	—	$	11,644	(a)	$	5,300	(b)	$	16,944	$	12,298

(a) Represents the fair value of the Company’s King Philip’s Crossing investment property as of December 31, 2019, the date the asset was measured at fair value. The estimated fair value of King Philip’s Crossing was based upon the expected sales price from an executed sales contract and determined to be a Level 2 input.

(b)

Represents the fair value of the Company’s Streets of Yorktown investment property as of September 30, 2019, the date the asset was measured at fair value. The estimated fair value of Streets of Yorktown was determined using the income approach. The income approach involves discounting the estimated income stream and reversion (presumed sale) value of a property over an estimated holding period to a present value at a risk-adjusted rate. The discount rates and third-party comparable sales prices used in this approach are derived from property-specific information, market transactions and other industry data and are considered significant inputs to this valuation. The reversion value of the property was based upon third-party comparable sales prices, which contain unobservable inputs used by these third parties. A weighted average discount rate of 6.89% was used to (i) present value the estimated income stream over the estimated holding period and (ii) present value the reversion value.

The Company estimates the fair value of its Level 3 financial liabilities using a discounted cash flow model that incorporates future contractual principal and interest payments. The Company estimates the fair value of its mortgages payable, net and Level 3 unsecured notes payable, net by discounting the anticipated future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered to the Company by its lenders for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities. The Company estimates the fair value of its unsecured term loans, net and unsecured revolving line of credit by discounting the anticipated future cash flows at a reference rate, currently one-month LIBOR, plus an applicable credit spread currently offered to the Company by its lenders for similar instruments of comparable maturities. The following rates were used in the discounted cash flow model to calculate the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities:

	March 31, 2020	December 31, 2019
Mortgages payable, net – range of discount rates used	3.6% to 4.1%	3.2% to 3.6%
Unsecured notes payable, net – weighted average discount rate used	4.72%	3.79%
