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 September 30, 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.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation. Specifically, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the reserve for uncollectible lease income of $1,860 has been presented as a component of “Changes in accounts receivable, net” rather than the previous presentation where it was included as a component of “Other, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows within “Cash flows from operating activities.” There has been no change to “Net cash provided by operating activities” for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as a result of this reclassification.

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, and could continue to cause, significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economy, including the retail sector within the U.S., and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. Many U.S. states and cities, including where the Company owns properties and/or has development sites, imposed measures, and continue to impose measures to varying degrees, intended to control the spread of COVID-19, such as instituting “shelter-in-place” rules, limitations on public gatherings and restrictions on certain business operations and/or the types of construction projects that

may continue. As a result of the pandemic and the measures implemented to mitigate its impact, a number of the Company’s tenants were required to temporarily close their stores or modify their operations and, as a result, requested lease concessions. As of September 30, 2020, all of the Company’s properties were open for the benefit of the communities and customers that the Company’s tenants serve and approximately 94% of the Company’s tenants, based on gross leasable area, were open. While many U.S. states and cities have eased or lifted such restrictions, some have subsequently reinstated restrictions and others may do so in the future.

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 ultimate impact the pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

During the second and third quarters of 2020, the Company agreed in principle, and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements, with tenants regarding lease concessions.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 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 September 30, 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 relationships and has disregarded the potential economic mismatches in hedging relationships due to reference rate reform during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

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 provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Prior to the Q&A, 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, a company determines, on a lease-by-lease basis, if a lease concession is the result of a new arrangement with the tenant or if it is under the enforceable rights and obligations within the lease agreement. Under the relief guidance, a company can account for certain concessions (i) as if no changes to the existing lease contract were made or (ii) as a negative variable lease adjustment to lease income. This optionality is offered in circumstances when the total future payments required by the modified contract are substantially the same as the total payments required by the existing contract. Also, under the relief guidance, a company can account for certain other concessions only as a variable lease adjustment. This singular relief option is offered in circumstances including when the total future payments required by the modified contract are less than the total payments required by the existing contract (i.e., abatement) or when the total payments required are the same, but extend over a longer period of time as compared to the existing contract.

Application of the relief guidance is optional; however, it is required to be applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. The Company has elected to apply the relief guidance where lease concessions (i) have been granted as relief due to the COVID-19 pandemic and (ii) result in the cash flows remaining to be substantially the same or less than the existing contract.

Based on the policy elections made under the relief guidance as well as modifications that do not qualify for the relief guidance, the Company has accounted for lease concessions as follows:

Lease Concession	Accounting Treatment of Concession
(i) Deferral of payment to a future period, with no change in lease term	Treated as if there are no changes to the existing lease contract; no change to lease income recognized, including straight-line rental income.
(ii) Deferral of payment to a future period, with a modest extension of the lease term (iii) Abatement (iv) Combination of abatement and deferral	Treated as a variable lease adjustment; reduction in lease income for the abated and deferred amounts; however, no change in straight-line rental income. Any deferred amounts will be recognized as lease income when payment is received.
(v) Significant lease extension resulting in an increase in cash flows	Existing lease modification guidance under ASC 842 is followed.

(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 September 30, 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 materially reduced the planned scope and spend for the project. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had completed the current scope of site work preparation at the property in anticipation of future vertical development at the site.

The Company capitalized $1,338 and $4,001 of indirect project costs related to redevelopment projects during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, including, among other costs, $318 and $1,019 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the redevelopment projects and $804 and $2,325 of interest, respectively. The Company capitalized $1,204 and $2,437 of indirect project costs related to redevelopment projects during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, including, among other costs, $366 and $1,066 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the redevelopment projects and $570 and $940 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 (i) the joint venture related to the multi-family rental portion of the redevelopment during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and (ii) the joint venture related to the medical office building portion of the redevelopment during the three months ended June 30, 2020. In accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreements, costs incurred prior to the terminations were funded evenly by the partners and there was no payment between the partners upon termination. Subsequent to the terminations, if the Company commences the redevelopment and uses the materials developed, or approvals obtained, by the joint venture partners, the Company is required to reimburse the partners’ costs incurred in connection with such materials and/or approvals. As a result of the terminations, the Company reclassified the noncontrolling interest balance of $2,217 from noncontrolling interests to additional paid-in capital within equity. There was no gain or loss recognized in connection with the terminations.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company funded $758 of the partner’s development costs related to One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H through a loan provided by the Company to the joint venture. The loan is secured by the joint venture project, is required to be repaid subsequent to the completion of construction and stabilization of the project and is eliminated upon consolidation. Under terms defined in the joint venture agreement, after construction completion and stabilization of the 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 joint venture at fair value. The Company has not provided financial support to the VIE in excess of any amounts that it is contractually required to provide. There was no income from the joint venture projects during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 and, as such, no income was attributed to the noncontrolling interests.

Other
Uncollectible lease income, net (e)	(5,039)		(569)		(25,415)		(1,046)
Amortization of above and below market lease intangibles and lease inducements	423		1,127		2,323		3,557
Lease income	$	107,358	$	119,717	$	322,856	$	360,869

(a)Base rent primarily consists of fixed lease payments; however, it is partially offset by adjustments of $6,051 and $6,102 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, related to executed lease concessions granted as relief due to COVID-19 and treated as negative variable lease adjustments to base rent in accordance with the Company’s policy elections related to the accounting treatment of such lease concessions.

(b)Base rent and tenant recoveries for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are presented gross of any uncollected amounts related to cash-basis tenants. Such uncollected amounts are reflected within “Uncollectible lease income, net.”

(c)Represents lease income related to variable lease payments.

(d)Represents lease income related to fixed lease payments. Straight-line rental income, net includes changes in allowances for doubtful straight-line receivables of $(3,089) and $(710) for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $(5,760) and $(1,524) for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

(e)Uncollectible lease income, net is comprised of (i) uncollected amounts related to tenants being accounted for on the cash basis of accounting of $3,869 and $11,938 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, (ii) a reserve, which includes the estimated impact for lease concession agreements that have not yet been executed of $4,517 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, and other general reserve amounts, and (iii) the reclassification of amounts related to lease concession agreements that were executed during the current period and treated as negative variable lease adjustments, however were agreed in principle in the prior quarter of $(4,381) for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

During the second and third quarters of 2020, the Company agreed in principle, and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements, with tenants regarding lease concessions. The majority of these concessions are for the deferral of amounts billed, without an extension of the lease term and, as such, meet deferral accounting treatment. However, certain of these lease concessions do not meet deferral accounting treatment as they include abatement, a combination of deferral and abatement, are deferrals with a modest extension of the lease term, or provide a concession with the extension of the existing lease term. The majority of the amounts addressed by the lease concessions are base rent, although certain concessions also address tenant recoveries and other charges. As of September 30, 2020, the Company agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed lease concessions to defer, without an extension of the lease term, $7,965 and $4,878 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively, and to address an additional $6,965 and $3,028 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively, through abatement, a combination of deferral and abatement or a concession with the extension of the lease term. As of September 30, 2020, the amounts that have been deferred to future periods under executed lease concessions, on a weighted average basis, are expected to be received starting approximately four months from September 30, 2020 and will be received over a period of approximately 11 months once started.

(Unaudited)

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements with additional tenants whereby it expects to address an additional $765 and $190 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively. Furthermore, the Company agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements with tenants whereby it expects to address through lease concessions approximately $937 of base rent charges pertaining to future periods. The Company can make no assurances that the in-process lease amendments will ultimately be executed in the lease concession type being actively negotiated, or at all. Refer to Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the accounting treatment for lease concessions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Company has not yet reached agreements, and in some cases does not anticipate reaching agreements, to defer or abate rent with certain tenants regarding concession requests, as discussions are ongoing. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company applied $2,999 of security deposits to previously uncollected accounts receivable.

Leases as Lessee

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company extended the term of one office lease resulting in an additional lease liability and right-of-use lease asset of $383.

(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 September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(e)Excludes capitalized loan fees, which are included within “Other assets, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. 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

On April 23, 2018, the Company entered into its fifth amended and restated credit agreement with a syndicate of financial institutions to provide for an unsecured credit facility aggregating $1,100,000, consisting of an $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit that matures on April 22, 2022 and a $250,000 unsecured term loan that matures on January 5, 2021 (Unsecured Credit Facility). During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company repaid the $250,000 unsecured term loan that bore interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread ranging from 1.20% to 1.70% with proceeds from the issuance of the Notes Due 2030. The unsecured revolving line of credit is priced on a leverage grid at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread. In accordance with the unsecured credit agreement, the credit spread set forth in the leverage grid resets quarterly based on the Company’s leverage, as calculated at the previous quarter end, and the Company has the option to make an irrevocable election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 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 revolving line of credit:

				Leverage-Based Pricing		Investment Grade Pricing
Unsecured Credit Facility	Maturity Date	Extension Option	Extension Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee
$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 the Company, at its election, to increase the total Unsecured Credit Facility up to $1,350,000, 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 September 30, 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 credit spread set forth in the leverage grid resets quarterly based on the Company’s leverage, as calculated at the previous quarter end, and the Company has the option to make an irrevocable election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 2020, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate for each of the unsecured term loans 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%

$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.

The Company plans on addressing its debt maturities through a combination of (i) cash flows generated from operations, (ii) working capital, (iii) capital markets transactions and (iv) its unsecured revolving line of credit.

(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 September 30, 2020, the Company has eight 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 $10,927 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate swaps as of September 30, 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
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 Company previously had three interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $250,000 and a maturity date of January 5, 2021 that were terminated in conjunction with the repayment of the Company’s $250,000 unsecured term loan due 2021 during the three months ended September 30, 2020. At termination, these three interest rate swaps were in a liability position and had a fair value of $1,699. The associated other comprehensive income will be amortized into expense through the original maturity date. As a result, the Company recognized $451 of interest expense, which is included within “Interest expense” in the

accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss), in connection with the termination of these swaps during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

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	September 30, 2020	December 31, 2019	September 30, 2020		December 31, 2019

(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 nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. As of September 30, 2020, $189,105 remained available for repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock under its common stock repurchase program.

(a)Excludes 868 shares of unvested restricted common stock as of September 30, 2020, which equate to 868 and 790 shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, on a weighted average basis. These shares will continue to be excluded from the computation of basic EPS until contingencies are resolved and the shares are released.

(b)Excludes 660 shares of unvested restricted common stock as of September 30, 2019, which equate to 661 and 641 shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, on a weighted average basis. 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 September 30, 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 September 30, 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 September 30, 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 974 and 972 RSUs, respectively, on a weighted average basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 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 September 30, 2019, there were 839 RSUs eligible for future conversion upon completion of the performance periods, which equate to 839 and 836 RSUs, respectively, on a weighted average basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, these contingently issuable shares have been excluded from the common shares used in calculating diluted EPS as including them would be anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, these contingently issuable shares are a component of calculating diluted EPS.

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
Streets of Yorktown (b)	Multi-tenant retail	September 30, 2020	85,200	2,279
				$	2,625
	Estimated fair value of impaired properties as of impairment date			$	14,144

(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.

(b)The Company recorded an impairment charge as a result of a combination of factors, including expected impact on future operating results stemming from changes in lease terms related to the tenant population and a change in expected hold period.

The Company recorded the following investment property impairment charge during the nine months ended September 30, 2019:

Property Name	Property Type	Impairment Date	Square Footage	Provision for Impairment of Investment Properties
Streets of Yorktown (a)	Multi-tenant retail	September 30, 2019	85,200	$	11,177
				$	11,177
	Estimated fair value of impaired property as of impairment date			$	5,300

(a)The Company recorded an impairment charge as a result of a combination of factors, including expected impact on future operating results stemming from anticipated changes in lease terms related to the tenant population and a re-evaluation of the strategic alternatives for the property.

The extent to which COVID-19 impacts the Company and its tenants will depend, in part, 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 September 30, 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:

	September 30, 2020				December 31, 2019
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Financial liabilities:
Mortgages payable, net	$	92,075	$	94,078	$	94,155	$	98,082
Unsecured notes payable, net	$	1,185,479	$	1,205,002	$	796,247	$	822,883
Unsecured term loans, net	$	467,391	$	458,788	$	716,523	$	720,000
Unsecured revolving line of credit	$	—	$	—	$	18,000	$	18,000
Derivative liability	$	34,804	$	34,804	$	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
September 30, 2020
Derivative liability	$	—	$	34,804	$	—	$	34,804
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 September 30, 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 following table presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2020 and 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 nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, except for those properties sold prior to September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these assets are described after the table.

	Fair Value
	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3			Total		Provision for Impairment

Investment properties	$	—	$	11,644	(b)	$	5,300	(c)	$	16,944	$	12,298

(a)Represents the fair value of the Company’s Streets of Yorktown investment property as of September 30, 2020, the date the asset was measured at fair value. The estimated fair value of Streets of Yorktown was based upon third-party comparable sales prices, derived from property-specific information, market transactions and other industry data and are considered significant unobservable inputs.

(b)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.

(c)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 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:

	September 30, 2020	December 31, 2019
Mortgages payable, net – range of discount rates used	3.7% to 4.2%	3.2% to 3.6%
Unsecured notes payable, net – weighted average discount rate used	4.40%	3.79%
Unsecured term loans, net – weighted average credit spread portion of discount rate used	1.93%	1.26%
Unsecured revolving line of credit – credit spread portion of discount rate used	1.65%	1.05%

There were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019.

(13) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As of September 30, 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 September 30, 2020:

(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 materially reduced the planned scope and spend for the project. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had completed the current scope of site work preparation at the property in anticipation of future vertical development at the site. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company terminated the joint ventures related to the multi-family rental portion and 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 September 30, 2020, the Company paid the cash dividend for the third quarter of 2020 of $0.05 per share on its outstanding Class A common stock.

For a further discussion of these and other factors that could impact our future results, performance or transactions, see Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this document, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, which you should interpret as being heightened as a result of the numerous and ongoing adverse impacts of COVID-19. Readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which are based only on information currently available to us (or to third parties making the forward-looking statements). We undertake no obligation to publicly release any revisions to such forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, except as required by applicable law.

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, and could continue to cause, significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economy, including the retail sector within the U.S., and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. Additionally, the pandemic has, and could continue to have, a significant adverse impact on the underlying industries of many of our tenants. Accordingly, our tenants and their operations, and their ability to pay rent, have been adversely impacted and may continue to be adversely impacted. Many U.S. states and cities, including where we own properties and/or have development sites, imposed measures, and continue to impose measures to varying degrees, intended to control the spread of COVID-19, such as instituting “shelter-in-place” rules, limitations on public gatherings and restrictions on certain business operations and/or the types of construction projects that may continue. As a result of the pandemic and the measures implemented to mitigate its impact, a number of our tenants were required to temporarily close their stores or modify their operations, which has impacted, and could continue to impact, their ability to pay rent in full, on time, or at all, and more of our tenants could be similarly impacted in the future. While many U.S. states and cities have eased or lifted such restrictions, some have subsequently reinstated restrictions and others may do so in the future. Continued mitigation efforts or the effect of any relaxation or revocation of current restrictions, including the impact on and of consumer behavior, all of which vary by geography, will continue to impact our business and such impacts may be significant and materially adverse to us.

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 ultimate impact the pandemic will have on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Certain of our tenants, many of which are considered essential businesses, remain open and continue to operate

26

during this time. Based on annualized base rent (ABR) of leases in effect as of September 30, 2020, essential businesses and office represent approximately 38.1% of our ABR, including 8.5% from grocery/warehouse clubs and 6.7% from office tenants.

During the second and third quarters of 2020, we agreed in principle, and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements, with tenants regarding lease concessions. The majority of these concessions are for the deferral of amounts billed, without an extension of the lease term and, as such, meet deferral accounting treatment. However, certain of these lease concessions do not meet deferral accounting treatment as they include abatement, a combination of deferral and abatement, are deferrals with a modest extension of the lease term, or provide a concession with the extension of the existing lease term, which requires us to apply lease modification accounting. The majority of the amounts addressed by the lease concessions are base rent, although certain concessions also address tenant recoveries and other charges. As of September 30, 2020, we agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed lease concessions to defer, without an extension of the lease term, $7,965 and $4,878 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively, and to address an additional $6,965 and $3,028 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively, through abatement, a combination of deferral and abatement or a concession with the extension of the lease term. As of September 30, 2020, the amounts that have been deferred to future periods under executed lease concessions, on a weighted average basis, are expected to be received starting approximately four months from September 30, 2020 and will be received over a period of approximately 11 months once started.

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, we agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements with additional tenants whereby we expect to address an additional $765 and $190 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively. Furthermore, we agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements with tenants whereby we expect to address through lease concessions approximately $937 of base rent charges pertaining to future periods. We can make no assurances that the in-process lease amendments will ultimately be executed in the lease concession type being actively negotiated, or at all.

As of October 26, 2020, we have collected 73.6%, 84.2% and 87.2% of base rent charges related to the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 and one month ended October 31, 2020, respectively. In addition, as of October 26, 2020, we have executed lease concession agreements, agreed in principle to lease amendments or applied security deposits for an aggregate additional 19.9%, 9.1% and 1.8% of base rent related to the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 and one month ended October 31, 2020, respectively. Uncollected billed base rent related to tenants who have declared bankruptcy represents an additional 1.5%, 0.9% and 0.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 and one month ended October 31, 2020, respectively. We have not yet reached agreements, and in some cases do not anticipate reaching agreements, to defer or abate rent with certain 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 have the ability to pay, have elected to withhold 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 and as a result, non-payment of rent generally constitutes a default. However, COVID-19 and the related governmental orders present fairly novel situations and it is possible government action could impact our rights. As of September 30, 2020, all of our properties were open for the benefit of the communities and customers that our tenants serve and approximately 94% of our tenants, based on gross leasable area (GLA), were open.

27

The following information is based on ABR of leases in our retail operating portfolio that were in effect as of June 30, 2020 in relation to information as of the second quarter of 2020 and as of September 30, 2020 in relation to information as of the third quarter of 2020 and October 2020 and is being provided to assist with analysis of the potential impact of COVID-19. The information may not be indicative of collection and lease concession activity 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.

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 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 September 30, 2020, we have completed the current scope of site work preparation at Carillon in anticipation of future vertical development at the site. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we terminated the joint ventures related to the multi-family rental portion and the medical office building portion of the redevelopment at Carillon.

On May 1, 2020, in order to preserve and enhance liquidity and capital positioning, our board of directors temporarily suspended future quarterly dividend payments on our outstanding Class A common stock. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, our board of directors declared a quarterly distribution of $0.05 per share of common stock. Our board of directors will continue to 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 the three months ended March 31, 2020, our employees, except for a small number that are considered essential to be on-site for the safe operation of our properties, successfully transitioned to working remotely, and we did not furlough any employees nor significantly modify our key processes or internal controls over financial reporting. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we reopened our corporate and field offices for use in a modified format. In addition, we expect to continue 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 September 30, 2020, we owned 102 retail operating properties in the United States representing 19,962,000 square feet of 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.

The following table summarizes our portfolio as of September 30, 2020:

Property Type	Number of  Properties	GLA (in thousands)	Occupancy		Percent Leased  Including Leases  Signed (a)

(a)Includes leases signed but not commenced.

(b)Excludes the 18 multi-family rental units at Plaza del Lago. As of September 30, 2020, 16 multi-family rental units were leased at an average monthly rental rate per unit of $1,324.

(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 34% to $19.44 per square foot as of September 30, 2020 from

29

$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 September 30, 2020 from 16% as of March 31, 2013, (iii) reduced our top 20 retail tenant concentration of total ABR by 1,090 basis points to 27.0% as of September 30, 2020 from 37.9% as of March 31, 2013, and (iv) reduced our indebtedness by 32% to $1,762,744 as of September 30, 2020 from $2,601,912 as of March 31, 2013. Additionally, as of September 30, 2020, approximately 88.6% 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 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 nine months ended September 30, 2020, we achieved a blended re-leasing spread of positive 2.6% consisting of positive 4.1% on signed renewal leases and negative comparable cash leasing spreads of (5.3)% on signed new leases. During this period, we achieved average annual contractual rent increases on signed new leases of approximately 175 basis points. As of September 30, 2020, we have $6,451 of ABR related to 257 square feet of GLA pertaining to 2020 lease expirations and $5,978 of ABR related to 314 square feet of GLA pertaining to leases signed but not yet 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, as evidenced by the large volume of renewals executed during the three months ended September 30, 2020, 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 new and renewal leases and (iii) our ability to finalize the execution of new and renewal 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 September 30, 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 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 September 30, 2020, we have completed the current scope of site work preparation at Carillon in anticipation of future vertical development at the site. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we terminated the joint ventures related to the multi-family rental portion and 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.

MSA, all three of which are in redevelopment. Including these amounts, 88.7% of our multi-tenant retail ABR and 84.7% of our multi-tenant retail GLA is located in the top 25 MSAs.

(b)Top 25 MSAs are determined by the United States Census Bureau and ranked based on the most recently available population estimates.

(c)Excludes the 18 multi-family rental units at Plaza del Lago. As of September 30, 2020, 16 multi-family rental units were leased at an average monthly rental rate per unit of $1,324.

Leasing Activity

The following table summarizes the leasing activity in our retail operating portfolio and our active and near-term expansion and redevelopment projects during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. New leases with terms of less than 12 months and renewal leases that extend the lease term by less than 12 months have been excluded from the table.

	Number of Leases Signed	GLA Signed (in thousands)	New Contractual Rent per Square Foot (PSF) (a)		Prior Contractual Rent PSF (a)		% Change over Prior ABR (a)			Weighted Average Lease Term		Tenant Allowances PSF (b)

(a)Total excludes the impact of Non-Comparable New and Renewal Leases.

(b)Excludes tenant allowances and related square foot amounts at our active and near-term expansion and redevelopment projects. These tenant allowances, if any, are included in the expected investment for each project.

(c)One significant comparable renewal lease, which extended the term of an existing tenant by 14 years, materially weighted the statistics for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Excluding this one comparable renewal lease, year-to-date Comparable Renewal Leases % Change over Prior ABR, Weighted Average Lease Term and Tenant Allowances PSF would have been 4.9%, 4.8 years and $2.13, respectively.

(d)Includes (i) leases signed on units that were vacant for over 12 months, (ii) leases signed with variable lease payment terms and (iii) leases signed where the previous and current lease do not have a consistent lease structure.

(e)Excluding the significant comparable renewal lease described in footnote (c), year-to-date Total Leases % Change over Prior ABR, Weighted Average Lease Term and Tenant Allowances PSF would have been 3.1%, 6.3 years and $10.53, respectively.

Our near-term efforts are primarily focused on reaching resolution of lease concession requests. During the second and third quarters of 2020, we executed agreements with certain tenants regarding lease concessions; however, we have not yet reached agreements, and in some cases do not anticipate reaching agreements, to defer or abate rent with certain tenants regarding concession requests, as discussions are ongoing. 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 September 30, 2020, we have $6,451 of ABR related to 257 square feet of GLA pertaining to 2020 lease expirations and $5,978 of ABR related to 314 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, as evidenced by the large volume of renewals executed during the three months ended September 30, 2020, 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 new and renewal leases and (iii) our ability to finalize the execution of new and renewal leases given current uncertainty.

Capital Markets

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we:

•completed a public offering of $400,000 in aggregate principal amount of 4.75% senior unsecured notes due 2030 (Notes Due 2030). The Notes Due 2030 were priced at 98.684% of the principal amount to yield 4.917% to maturity and will mature on September 15, 2030, unless earlier redeemed;

•completed a public offering of $100,000 in aggregate principal amount of 4.00% senior unsecured notes due 2025 (Notes Due 2025), issued at 99.010% of par value to yield 4.236% plus accrued and unpaid interest from March 15, 2020 through July 20, 2020. This $100,000 offering constitutes a further issuance of, and forms a single series with, our previously issued Notes Due 2025 and will mature on March 15, 2025, unless earlier redeemed. The total aggregate principal amount of Notes Due 2025 currently outstanding is $350,000, which enables the Notes Due 2025 to be eligible for index inclusion;

32

•repaid our $250,000 unsecured term loan due 2021 with proceeds from the issuance of the Notes Due 2030 and terminated the related interest rate swaps that had a maturity date of January 5, 2021;

•repaid the $100,000 principal balance of our 4.12% senior unsecured notes due 2021 (Notes Due 2021) with proceeds from the issuance of the Notes Due 2030 and made $2,770 of make-whole provision payments;

•repaid $18,000, net of borrowings, on our unsecured revolving line of credit; and

•prepaid a $306 mortgage payable, incurred a $16 debt prepayment fee and made scheduled principal payments of $1,854 related to amortizing loans.

Distributions

We declared total distributions of $0.215625 per share of common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 comprised of the first quarter 2020 distribution of $0.165625 per share and the third quarter 2020 distribution of $0.05 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we paid (i) the fourth quarter 2019 distribution of $0.165625 per share in January 2020 and (ii) the first quarter 2020 distribution of $0.165625 per share in April 2020.

Net loss attributable to common shareholders was $(2,288) for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $(28,153) for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The $25,865 decrease in net loss was primarily due to the following:

•a $25,719 decrease in depreciation and amortization primarily due to the write-off of assets taken out of service due to the demolition of existing structures at our Carillon redevelopment during the three months ended September 30, 2019. No such write-off occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2020;

•an $8,898 decrease in provision for impairment of investment properties. Based on the results of our evaluations for impairment (see Notes 11 and 12 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements), we recognized impairment charges of $2,279 and $11,177 during the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively;

•a $3,143 decrease in interest expense primarily consisting of:

•a $5,365 decrease in prepayment penalties;

33

partially offset by

•a $1,900 increase in interest on our Notes Due 2030, which were issued in August 2020;

partially offset by

•a $12,359 decrease in lease income primarily due to the impact of COVID-19 and related accounting for lease concession agreements and primarily consisting of:

•a $5,883 decrease in base rent primarily from our same store portfolio, partially offset by an increase from the operating properties acquired during 2019 and 2020; and

•a $4,470 increase in reserve for uncollectible lease income primarily due to (i) higher accounts receivable balances as we have received approximately 82.2% (as of September 30, 2020) of base rent that was billed during the three months ended September 30, 2020, (ii) uncollected amounts related to tenants being accounted for on the cash basis of accounting, and (iii) lease concessions we have agreed in principle that are not expected to meet deferral accounting treatment, however, such agreements have not been executed as of September 30, 2020; as a result, the impact of these anticipated concessions are included within the reserve for uncollectible lease income until executed, partially offset by the reclassification of amounts related to lease concession agreements that were executed during the current period and treated as negative variable lease adjustments, however were agreed in principle in the prior quarter.

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.

Same store portfolio

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 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 did not change as of September 30, 2020 from 101 as of June 30, 2020.

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

•properties acquired or placed in service and stabilized 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. As of

34

September 30, 2020, we have completed the current scope of site work preparation at the property in anticipation of future vertical 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.

The following tables present a reconciliation of net loss attributable to common shareholders to Same Store NOI and details of the components of Same Store NOI for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019:

Same Store NOI decreased $10,101, or 12.4%, primarily due to the following:

•a $5,625 decrease in base rent primarily due to lease concession agreements that do not meet deferral accounting treatment of $6,051 that were executed during the three months ended September 30, 2020, partially offset by an increase of $790 from contractual rent changes. The lease concessions executed during the three months ended September 30, 2020 related to billed base rent of $4,045 and $2,006 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively. The $4,045 related to billed base rent for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was previously recorded within “Uncollectible lease income, net” during the three months ended June 30, 2020; and

•a $3,867 increase in reserve for uncollectible lease income primarily due to (i) higher accounts receivable balances as we have received approximately 82.2% (as of September 30, 2020) of base rent that was billed during the three months ended September 30, 2020, (ii) uncollected amounts related to tenants being accounted for on the cash basis of accounting, and (iii) lease concessions we have agreed in principle that are not expected to meet deferral accounting treatment, however, such agreements have not been executed as of September 30, 2020; as a result, the impact of these anticipated concessions are included within the reserve for uncollectible lease income until executed, partially offset

35

by the reclassification of amounts related to lease concession agreements that were executed during the current period and treated as negative variable lease adjustments, however were agreed in principle in the prior quarter.

Net income attributable to common shareholders was $12,722 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $16,225 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The $3,503 decrease was primarily due to the following:

•a $38,013 decrease in lease income primarily due to the impact of COVID-19 and related accounting for lease concession agreements and primarily consisting of:

•a $24,369 increase in reserve for uncollectible lease income primarily due to (i) higher accounts receivable balances as we have received approximately 72.9% and 82.2% (as of September 30, 2020) of base rent that was billed during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively, (ii) uncollected amounts related to tenants being accounted for on the cash basis of accounting, and (iii) lease concessions we have agreed in principle that are not expected to meet deferral accounting treatment, however, such agreements have not been executed as of September 30, 2020; as a result, the impact of these anticipated concessions are included within the reserve for uncollectible lease income until executed;

•a $3,909 decrease in straight-line rent primarily as a result of changes in collectibility of straight-line receivables;

•a $3,035 decrease in tenant recovery income primarily from lower recoverable property operating expenses in 2020; and

•a $2,849 decrease in base rent primarily from the operating properties sold during 2019 and 2020, partially offset by the operating properties acquired during 2019 and 2020; and

•an $18,872 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 nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the sale of two investment properties, representing approximately 236,100 square feet of GLA, and the sale of two land parcels that were sold for gains during the nine months ended September 30, 2019;

36

partially offset by

•a $27,940 decrease in depreciation and amortization primarily due to the write-off of assets taken out of service due to the demolition of existing structures at our Carillon redevelopment during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. No such write-off occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2020;

•an $8,552 decrease in provision for impairment of investment properties. Based on the results of our evaluations for impairment (see Notes 11 and 12 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements), we recognized impairment charges of $2,625 and $11,177 during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively;

•a $6,100 gain on litigation settlement recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 related to litigation with a former tenant. No such gain was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2019;

•a $4,026 decrease in operating expenses primarily due to lower recoverable property operating expenses in 2020;

•a $4,016 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 $1,530 decrease in interest expense primarily consisting of:

•a $5,365 decrease in prepayment penalties;

•a $3,627 decrease in interest on mortgages payable due to a reduction in mortgage debt; and

•a $1,763 decrease in interest on our unsecured revolving line of credit due to lower LIBOR rates;

partially offset by

•a $4,553 increase in interest on our five-year $120,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2024) and seven-year $150,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2026), which were entered into in July 2019;

•a $2,370 increase in interest on our 4.82% senior unsecured notes due 2029 (Notes Due 2029), which were issued in June 2019; and

•a $1,900 increase in interest on our Notes Due 2030, which were issued in August 2020.

Same Store NOI	$	215,579	$	242,595	$	(27,016)

Same Store NOI decreased $27,016, or 11.1%, primarily due to the following:

•a $23,526 increase in reserve for uncollectible lease income primarily due to (i) higher accounts receivable balances as we have received approximately 72.9% and 82.2% (as of September 30, 2020) of base rent that was billed during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively, (ii) uncollected amounts related to tenants being accounted for on the cash basis of accounting, and (iii) lease concessions we have agreed in principle that are not expected to meet deferral accounting treatment, however, such agreements have not been executed as of September 30, 2020; as a result, the impact of these anticipated concessions are included within the reserve for uncollectible lease income until executed; and

•a $1,099 increase in property operating expenses and real estate taxes, net of tenant recoveries, primarily due to (i) the positive impact from the common area maintenance and real estate tax reconciliation process in 2019 and (ii) an increase in net real estate taxes resulting from higher real estate tax assessments, partially offset by a decrease in certain net recoverable property operating 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
▪	Available borrowings under our unsecured revolving		recoverable through common area maintenance charges to tenants
	line of credit	▪	Debt repayments
▪	Proceeds from capital markets transactions	▪	Distribution payments
▪	Proceeds from asset dispositions	▪	Redevelopment, expansion and pad development activities
▪	Proceeds from the sales of air rights	▪	Acquisitions
		▪	New development
		▪	Repurchases of our common stock

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, as of October 26, 2020, we have collected 73.6%, 84.2% and 87.2% of base rent charges from our tenants related to the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 and one month ended October 31, 2020, respectively, and have executed lease concession agreements, agreed in principle to lease amendments or applied security deposits for an aggregate additional 19.9%, 9.1% and 1.8% of the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 and one month ended October 31, 2020, respectively. Uncollected billed base rent related to tenants who have declared bankruptcy represents an additional 1.5%, 0.9% and 0.7% of the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 and one month ended October 31, 2020, respectively. If such a trend in cash collection activity continues, or possibly deteriorates, and if we reach

39

additional agreements with tenants to defer or abate rent, our operating cash flows and liquidity will be negatively impacted. Furthermore, as of October 26, 2020, we agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements with tenants whereby we expect to address through lease concessions approximately $937 of base rent charges pertaining to future periods. We can make no assurances that the in-process lease amendments will ultimately be executed in the lease concession type being actively negotiated, or at all. Over the last several years 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 September 30, 2020, we have no scheduled debt maturities and $588 of principal amortization due through 2021, which we plan on satisfying through a combination of cash flows from operations, working capital and our unsecured revolving line of credit.

The table below summarizes our consolidated indebtedness as of September 30, 2020:

Mortgages Payable

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we prepaid a $306 mortgage payable, which had a fixed interest rate of 7.48%, incurred a $16 debt prepayment fee and made scheduled principal payments of $1,854 related to amortizing loans.

Unsecured Notes Payable

Notes Due 2030

On August 25, 2020, we completed a public offering of $400,000 in aggregate principal amount of 4.75% senior unsecured notes due 2030 (Notes Due 2030). The Notes Due 2030 were priced at 98.684% of the principal amount to yield 4.917% to maturity and will mature on September 15, 2030, unless earlier redeemed. The proceeds were used to repay (i) our $250,000 unsecured term loan due 2021, (ii) the $100,000 principal balance of our 4.12% senior unsecured notes due 2021 (Notes Due 2021), (iii) borrowings on our unsecured revolving line of credit, and (iv) general corporate purposes. We made make-whole provision payments totaling $2,770 in connection with the repayment of the Notes Due 2021.

The indenture, as supplemented, governing the Notes Due 2030 contains customary covenants and events of default. Pursuant to the terms of the indenture, we are subject to various financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain the following: (i) maximum secured and consolidated leverage ratios; (ii) a debt service coverage ratio; and (iii) maintenance of an unencumbered assets to unsecured debt ratio.

Notes Due 2025

On July 21, 2020, we completed a public offering of $100,000 in aggregate principal amount of 4.00% senior unsecured notes due 2025 (Notes Due 2025), issued at 99.010% of par value to yield 4.236% plus accrued and unpaid interest from March 15, 2020 through July 20, 2020. This $100,000 offering constitutes a further issuance of, and forms a single series with, our previously issued Notes Due 2025 and will mature on March 15, 2025, unless earlier redeemed. The total aggregate principal amount of Notes Due 2025 currently outstanding is $350,000, which enables the Notes Due 2025 to be eligible for index inclusion. The proceeds were used to repay borrowings on our unsecured revolving line of credit and for general corporate purposes.

Unsecured Term Loans and Revolving Line of Credit

Unsecured Credit Facility

On April 23, 2018, we entered into our fifth amended and restated credit agreement with a syndicate of financial institutions to provide for an unsecured credit facility aggregating $1,100,000, consisting of an $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit that matures on April 22, 2022 and a $250,000 unsecured term loan that matures on January 5, 2021 (Unsecured Credit Facility). During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we repaid the $250,000 unsecured term loan that bore interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread ranging from 1.20% to 1.70% with proceeds from the issuance of the Notes Due 2030. The unsecured revolving line of credit is priced on a leverage grid at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread. In accordance with the unsecured credit agreement, the credit spread set forth in the leverage grid resets quarterly based on our leverage, as calculated at the previous quarter end, and we have the option to make an irrevocable election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 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 revolving line of credit:

				Leverage-Based Pricing		Investment Grade Pricing
Unsecured Credit Facility	Maturity Date	Extension Option	Extension Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee
$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 $1,350,000, 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 September 30, 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 September 30, 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

41

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 credit spread set forth in the leverage grid resets quarterly based on our leverage, as calculated at the previous quarter end, and we have the option to make an irrevocable election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 2020, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate for each of the unsecured term loans 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 debt agreements, consisting of the (i) unsecured credit agreement, as amended governing the Unsecured Credit Facility, (ii) term loan agreement, as amended governing the Term Loan Due 2023, (iii) term loan agreement, as amended

42

governing the Term Loan Due 2024 and Term Loan Due 2026, (iv) note purchase agreement governing the 4.58% senior unsecured notes due 2024 (Notes Due 2024), (v) indenture, as supplemented, governing the 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), (vii) note purchase agreement governing the 4.82% senior unsecured notes due 2029 (Notes Due 2029) and (viii) indenture, as supplemented, governing the Notes Due 2030, 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) a minimum debt service coverage ratio; and (vi) a 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 September 30, 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, (iii) capital markets transactions and (iv) our unsecured revolving line of credit.

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 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.

On May 1, 2020, our board of directors temporarily suspended future quarterly dividend payments on our outstanding Class A common stock to preserve and enhance liquidity and capital positioning. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, our board of directors declared a quarterly distribution of $0.05 per share of common stock. We declared distributions totaling $0.215625 per share of common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

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 nine months ended September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 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, (iii) capital markets transactions and (iv) our unsecured revolving line of credit.

As of September 30, 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 $81,000 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 $97,000 to $111,000 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 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 September 30, 2020, we have completed the current scope of site work preparation at Carillon in anticipation of future vertical development at the site.

We capitalized $633 and $1,900 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in capital upgrades and tenant improvements during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, and $679 and $2,004 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. We also capitalized internal leasing incentives of $66 and $168 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, and $111 and $247 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, all of which were incremental to signed leases.

In addition, we capitalized $1,338 and $4,001 of indirect project costs related to redevelopment projects during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, including, among other costs, $318 and $1,019 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the redevelopment projects and $804 and $2,325 of interest, respectively. We capitalized $1,204 and $2,437 of indirect project costs related to redevelopment projects during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, including, among other costs, $366 and $1,066 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the redevelopment projects and $570 and $940 of interest, respectively.

Dispositions

The following table highlights our property dispositions during 2019 and the nine months ended September 30, 2020:

	Number of Properties Sold	Square Footage	Consideration		Aggregate Proceeds, Net (a)		Debt Extinguished

(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 nine months ended September 30, 2020, we received proceeds of $26 from a condemnation award. 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 nine months ended September 30, 2020:

	Number of Assets Acquired	Square Footage	Acquisition Price		Mortgage Debt
2020 Acquisition (through September 30, 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.

44

(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

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 nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $52,047 primarily due to the following:

•a $28,607 decrease in NOI, consisting of a decrease in Same Store NOI and NOI from properties that were sold or held for sale in 2019 and 2020 and other properties not included in our same store portfolio;

•a $20,266 decrease in comparative changes in accounts receivable, net due to a decrease in the rate and aggregate amount of cash collections of charges billed to tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic during the second and third quarters of 2020 as compared to historical levels;

•a $1,334 increase in cash paid for interest, excluding debt prepayment fees;

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

•ordinary course fluctuations in working capital accounts;

partially offset by

•a $1,093 decrease in cash paid for leasing fees and inducements.

As a result of COVID-19, a number of our tenants were required to temporarily close their stores or modify their operations and, as a result, requested lease concessions. As of September 30, 2020, approximately 94% of our tenants (based on GLA) were open. While working to preserve our cash flow, we are also working with our tenants regarding requests for lease concessions. During the second and third quarters of 2020, we agreed in principle, and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements, with tenants regarding lease concessions. The majority of these concessions are for the deferral of amounts billed, without an extension of the lease term. However, certain of these lease concessions include abatement, a combination of deferral and abatement, or provide a concession that includes the extension of the existing lease term, which requires us to apply lease modification accounting. The majority of the amounts addressed by the lease concessions are base rent, although certain concessions also address tenant recoveries and other charges. As of September 30, 2020, we agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed lease concessions to defer, without an extension of the lease term, $7,965 and $4,878 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively, and to address an additional $6,965 and $3,028 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively, through abatement, a combination of deferral and abatement or a concession with the extension of the lease term. As of September 30, 2020, the amounts that have been deferred to future periods under executed lease concessions, on a weighted average basis, are expected to be received starting approximately four months from September 30, 2020 and will be received over a period of approximately 11 months once started.

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, we agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements with additional tenants whereby we expect to address an additional $765 and $190 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively. Furthermore, we agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed

45

agreements with tenants whereby we expect to address through lease concessions approximately $937 of base rent charges pertaining to future periods. We can make no assurances that the in-process lease amendments will ultimately be executed in the lease concession type being actively negotiated, or at all.

As of October 30, 2020, approximately 96% of our tenants (based on GLA), or 95% of our tenants (based on ABR), were open. We have not yet reached agreements, and in some cases do not anticipate reaching agreements, to defer or abate rent with certain tenants regarding concession requests, as discussions are ongoing, and certain tenants have not paid or only partially paid their rent and other charges. As of October 26, 2020, we have collected 73.6%, 84.2% and 87.2% of base rent charges related to the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 and one month ended October 31, 2020, respectively. If such a trend in cash collection activity continues, or possibly deteriorates, and if we reach additional agreements with tenants to defer or abate rent, our operating cash flows will be negatively impacted. 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 have the ability to pay, have elected to withhold base 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, and, as a result, non-payment of rent generally constitutes a default. 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, working capital and our unsecured revolving line of credit 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 nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $84,472 due to the following:

•a $41,122 increase in investment in developments in progress;

•a $33,287 decrease in proceeds from the sales of investment properties; and

•a $25,079 increase in cash paid to purchase investment properties;

partially offset by

•a $15,016 decrease in capital expenditures and tenant improvements.

For the remainder of 2020, we expect to fund redevelopment, expansion and pad development activities, capital expenditures and tenant improvements through cash flows generated from operations, working capital and our unsecured revolving line of credit.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash flows from financing activities primarily consist of proceeds from our unsecured revolving line of credit and the issuance of debt instruments, partially offset by (i) repayments of our unsecured revolving line of credit, unsecured debt instruments and mortgages payable, (ii) distribution payments, (iii) payment of loan fees and deposits, (iv) debt prepayment costs and (v) principal payments on mortgages payable. Net cash flows from financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased $150,998 primarily due to the following:

•a $393,746 increase in proceeds from the issuance of unsecured notes payable;

•a $231,000 change in the activity on our unsecured revolving line of credit from net repayments of $249,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to net repayments of $18,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2020;

•a $107,757 decrease in principal payments on mortgages payable;

•a $35,290 decrease in distributions paid; and

46

•a $5,365 decrease in debt prepayment fees;

partially offset by

•a $270,000 decrease in proceeds from the Term Loan Due 2024 and Term Loan Due 2026 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. No such proceeds were received in 2020;

•a $250,000 increase in repayments of unsecured term loans resulting from the repayment of our unsecured term loan due 2021 during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. No such repayments were made in 2019;

•a $100,000 increase in repayments of unsecured notes payable resulting from the repayment of our Notes Due 2021 during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. No such repayments were made in 2019; and

•a $2,884 increase in the payment of loan fees and deposits.

We plan to continue to address our debt maturities through a combination of (i) cash flows from operations, (ii) working capital, (iii) capital markets transactions and (iv) our unsecured revolving line of credit.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

During the nine months ended September 30, 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. Our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 includes an update of our policies related to lease income and accounts receivable as a result of significant changes in judgments related to the COVID-19 pandemic. For the three months ended September 30, 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 September 30, 2020, we paid the cash dividend for the third quarter of 2020 of $0.05 per share on our outstanding Class A common stock.

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 September 30, 2020, we had $470,000 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 September 30, 2020 are summarized in the following table:

	Notional Amount		Maturity Date	Fair Value of Derivative Liability
Term Loan Due 2023	$	200,000	November 22, 2023	$	16,338
Term Loan Due 2024	120,000		July 17, 2024	6,556
Term Loan Due 2026	150,000		July 17, 2026	11,910
	$	470,000		$	34,804

For a discussion concerning the scheduled debt maturities and principal amortization of our indebtedness as of September 30, 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 $20,653.

The combined carrying amount of our debt is approximately $12,923 lower than the fair value as of September 30, 2020.

As of September 30, 2020, we had $470,000 of variable rate debt that has been swapped to fixed rate debt and access to a variable rate revolving line of credit with an interest rate of 1.20% based on LIBOR; however, the revolving line of credit was not drawn as of September 30, 2020. An increase in the variable interest rate on the revolving line of credit constitutes a market risk. If interest rates increase by 1%, there would be no change to interest expense as the revolving line of credit is undrawn as of September 30, 2020.

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 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.

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 September 30, 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 September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

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.

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 September 30, 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 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020.

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 September 30, 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.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation. Specifically, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the reserve for uncollectible lease income of $1,860 has been presented as a component of “Changes in accounts receivable, net” rather than the previous presentation where it was included as a component of “Other, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows within “Cash flows from operating activities.” There has been no change to “Net cash provided by operating activities” for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as a result of this reclassification.

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, and could continue to cause, significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economy, including the retail sector within the U.S., and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. Many U.S. states and cities, including where the Company owns properties and/or has development sites, imposed measures, and continue to impose measures to varying degrees, intended to control the spread of COVID-19, such as instituting “shelter-in-place” rules, limitations on public gatherings and restrictions on certain business operations and/or the types of construction projects that

may continue. As a result of the pandemic and the measures implemented to mitigate its impact, a number of the Company’s tenants were required to temporarily close their stores or modify their operations and, as a result, requested lease concessions. As of September 30, 2020, all of the Company’s properties were open for the benefit of the communities and customers that the Company’s tenants serve and approximately 94% of the Company’s tenants, based on gross leasable area, were open. While many U.S. states and cities have eased or lifted such restrictions, some have subsequently reinstated restrictions and others may do so in the future.

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 ultimate impact the pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

During the second and third quarters of 2020, the Company agreed in principle, and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements, with tenants regarding lease concessions. See a discussion regarding lease concessions executed or agreed in principle as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and related accounting treatment in Note 2 and Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s property ownership as of September 30, 2020 is summarized below:

	Property Count
Retail operating properties	102
Expansion and redevelopment projects:
Circle East	1
One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H (a)	—
Carillon	1
The Shoppes at Quarterfield	1
Total number of properties	105

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 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 September 30, 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 relationships and has disregarded the potential economic mismatches in hedging relationships due to reference rate reform during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

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 provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Prior to the Q&A, 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, a company determines, on a lease-by-lease basis, if a lease concession is the result of a new arrangement with the tenant or if it is under the enforceable rights and obligations within the lease agreement. Under the relief guidance, a company can account for certain concessions (i) as if no changes to the existing lease contract were made or (ii) as a negative variable lease adjustment to lease income. This optionality is offered in circumstances when the total future payments required by the modified contract are substantially the same as the total payments required by the existing contract. Also, under the relief guidance, a company can account for certain other concessions only as a variable lease adjustment. This singular relief option is offered in circumstances including when the total future payments required by the modified contract are less than the total payments required by the existing contract (i.e., abatement) or when the total payments required are the same, but extend over a longer period of time as compared to the existing contract.

Application of the relief guidance is optional; however, it is required to be applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. The Company has elected to apply the relief guidance where lease concessions (i) have been granted as relief due to the COVID-19 pandemic and (ii) result in the cash flows remaining to be substantially the same or less than the existing contract.

Based on the policy elections made under the relief guidance as well as modifications that do not qualify for the relief guidance, the Company has accounted for lease concessions as follows:

Lease Concession	Accounting Treatment of Concession
(i) Deferral of payment to a future period, with no change in lease term	Treated as if there are no changes to the existing lease contract; no change to lease income recognized, including straight-line rental income.
(ii) Deferral of payment to a future period, with a modest extension of the lease term (iii) Abatement (iv) Combination of abatement and deferral	Treated as a variable lease adjustment; reduction in lease income for the abated and deferred amounts; however, no change in straight-line rental income. Any deferred amounts will be recognized as lease income when payment is received.
(v) Significant lease extension resulting in an increase in cash flows	Existing lease modification guidance under ASC 842 is followed.

See a discussion regarding lease concessions agreed to with tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and related impact in Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

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 materially reduced the planned scope and spend for the project. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had completed the current scope of site work preparation at the property in anticipation of future vertical development at the site.

The Company capitalized $1,338 and $4,001 of indirect project costs related to redevelopment projects during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, including, among other costs, $318 and $1,019 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the redevelopment projects and $804 and $2,325 of interest, respectively. The Company capitalized $1,204 and $2,437 of indirect project costs related to redevelopment projects during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, including, among other costs, $366 and $1,066 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the redevelopment projects and $570 and $940 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 (i) the joint venture related to the multi-family rental portion of the redevelopment during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and (ii) the joint venture related to the medical office building portion of the redevelopment during the three months ended June 30, 2020. In accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreements, costs incurred prior to the terminations were funded evenly by the partners and there was no payment between the partners upon termination. Subsequent to the terminations, if the Company commences the redevelopment and uses the materials developed, or approvals obtained, by the joint venture partners, the Company is required to reimburse the partners’ costs incurred in connection with such materials and/or approvals. As a result of the terminations, the Company reclassified the noncontrolling interest balance of $2,217 from noncontrolling interests to additional paid-in capital within equity. There was no gain or loss recognized in connection with the terminations.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company recorded the following related to the consolidated joint ventures:

	September 30, 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	$	59,678	$	—	$	—	$	59,678	$	8,830	$	2,940	$	675	$	12,445
Other assets, net	$	336	$	—	$	—	$	336	$	164	$	—	$	—	$	164
Other liabilities	$	7,361	$	—	$	—	$	7,361	$	1,546	$	32	$	129	$	1,707
Noncontrolling interests	$	4,507	$	—	$	—	$	4,507	$	1,869	$	1,454	$	273	$	3,596

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company funded $758 of the partner’s development costs related to One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H through a loan provided by the Company to the joint venture. The loan is secured by the joint venture project, is required to be repaid subsequent to the completion of construction and stabilization of the project and is eliminated upon consolidation. Under terms defined in the joint venture agreement, after construction completion and stabilization of the 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 joint venture at fair value. The Company has not provided financial support to the VIE in excess of any amounts that it is contractually required to provide. There was no income from the joint venture projects during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 and, as such, no income was attributed to the noncontrolling interests.

Lease income	$	107,358	$	119,717	$	322,856	$	360,869

(a)Base rent primarily consists of fixed lease payments; however, it is partially offset by adjustments of $6,051 and $6,102 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, related to executed lease concessions granted as relief due to COVID-19 and treated as negative variable lease adjustments to base rent in accordance with the Company’s policy elections related to the accounting treatment of such lease concessions.

(b)Base rent and tenant recoveries for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are presented gross of any uncollected amounts related to cash-basis tenants. Such uncollected amounts are reflected within “Uncollectible lease income, net.”

(c)Represents lease income related to variable lease payments.

(d)Represents lease income related to fixed lease payments. Straight-line rental income, net includes changes in allowances for doubtful straight-line receivables of $(3,089) and $(710) for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $(5,760) and $(1,524) for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

(e)Uncollectible lease income, net is comprised of (i) uncollected amounts related to tenants being accounted for on the cash basis of accounting of $3,869 and $11,938 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, (ii) a reserve, which includes the estimated impact for lease concession agreements that have not yet been executed of $4,517 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, and other general reserve amounts, and (iii) the reclassification of amounts related to lease concession agreements that were executed during the current period and treated as negative variable lease adjustments, however were agreed in principle in the prior quarter of $(4,381) for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

During the second and third quarters of 2020, the Company agreed in principle, and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements, with tenants regarding lease concessions. The majority of these concessions are for the deferral of amounts billed, without an extension of the lease term and, as such, meet deferral accounting treatment. However, certain of these lease concessions do not meet deferral accounting treatment as they include abatement, a combination of deferral and abatement, are deferrals with a modest extension of the lease term, or provide a concession with the extension of the existing lease term. The majority of the amounts addressed by the lease concessions are base rent, although certain concessions also address tenant recoveries and other charges. As of September 30, 2020, the Company agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed lease concessions to defer, without an extension of the lease term, $7,965 and $4,878 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively, and to address an additional $6,965 and $3,028 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively, through abatement, a combination of deferral and abatement or a concession with the extension of the lease term. As of September 30, 2020, the amounts that have been deferred to future periods under executed lease concessions, on a weighted average basis, are expected to be received starting approximately four months from September 30, 2020 and will be received over a period of approximately 11 months once started.

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements with additional tenants whereby it expects to address an additional $765 and $190 of previously uncollected base rent charges related to the second and third quarters of 2020, respectively. Furthermore, the Company agreed in principle and, in certain circumstances, executed agreements with tenants whereby it expects to address through lease concessions approximately $937 of base rent charges pertaining to future periods. The Company can make no assurances that the in-process lease amendments will ultimately be executed in the lease concession type being actively negotiated, or at all. Refer to Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the accounting treatment for lease concessions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Company has not yet reached agreements, and in some cases does not anticipate reaching agreements, to defer or abate rent with certain tenants regarding concession requests, as discussions are ongoing. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company applied $2,999 of security deposits to previously uncollected accounts receivable.

Leases as Lessee

Unsecured Credit Facility

On April 23, 2018, the Company entered into its fifth amended and restated credit agreement with a syndicate of financial institutions to provide for an unsecured credit facility aggregating $1,100,000, consisting of an $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit that matures on April 22, 2022 and a $250,000 unsecured term loan that matures on January 5, 2021 (Unsecured Credit Facility). During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company repaid the $250,000 unsecured term loan that bore interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread ranging from 1.20% to 1.70% with proceeds from the issuance of the Notes Due 2030.

As of September 30, 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 revolving line of credit:

				Leverage-Based Pricing		Investment Grade Pricing
Unsecured Credit Facility	Maturity Date	Extension Option	Extension Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee

In accordance with the respective term loan agreements, the credit spread set forth in the leverage grid resets quarterly based on the Company’s leverage, as calculated at the previous quarter end, and the Company has the option to make an irrevocable election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 2020, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate for each of the unsecured term loans 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:

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 September 30, 2020, the Company has eight 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 $10,927 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate swaps as of September 30, 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
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 Company previously had three interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $250,000 and a maturity date of January 5, 2021 that were terminated in conjunction with the repayment of the Company’s $250,000 unsecured term loan due 2021 during the three months ended September 30, 2020. At termination, these three interest rate swaps were in a liability position and had a fair value of $1,699. The associated other comprehensive income will be amortized into expense through the original maturity date. As a result, the Company recognized $451 of interest expense, which is included within “Interest expense” in the

accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss), in connection with the termination of these swaps during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

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	September 30, 2020	December 31, 2019	September 30, 2020		December 31, 2019

These shares will continue to be excluded from the computation of basic EPS until contingencies are resolved and the shares are released.

(b)Excludes 660 shares of unvested restricted common stock as of September 30, 2019, which equate to 661 and 641 shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, on a weighted average basis. 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 September 30, 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 September 30, 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 September 30, 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 974 and 972 RSUs, respectively, on a weighted average basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. These contingently issuable shares have been excluded from the common shares used in calculating diluted EPS as including them would be anti-dilutive.

Provision for Impairment of Investment Properties

PROVISION FOR IMPAIRMENT OF INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, 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, significant exposure to financially troubled tenants or reduced anticipated holding periods. The following table summarizes the results of these analyses as of September 30, 2020 and 2019:

	September 30, 2020		September 30, 2019
Number of properties for which indicators of impairment were identified	3		2		(a)

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		1
Weighted average percentage by which the projected undiscounted cash flows exceeded its respective carrying value for each of the remaining properties (b)	141	%	20	%

(a)Includes one property which has subsequently been sold as of September 30, 2020.

(b)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 charges during the nine months ended September 30, 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
Streets of Yorktown (b)	Multi-tenant retail	September 30, 2020	85,200	2,279
				$	2,625
	Estimated fair value of impaired properties as of impairment date			$	14,144

(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.

(b)The Company recorded an impairment charge as a result of a combination of factors, including expected impact on future operating results stemming from changes in lease terms related to the tenant population and a change in expected hold period.

The Company recorded the following investment property impairment charge during the nine months ended September 30, 2019:

Property Name	Property Type	Impairment Date	Square Footage	Provision for Impairment of Investment Properties
Streets of Yorktown (a)	Multi-tenant retail	September 30, 2019	85,200	$	11,177
				$	11,177
	Estimated fair value of impaired property as of impairment date			$	5,300

(a)The Company recorded an impairment charge as a result of a combination of factors, including expected impact on future operating results stemming from anticipated changes in lease terms related to the tenant population and a re-evaluation of the strategic alternatives for the property.

The extent to which COVID-19 impacts the Company and its tenants will depend, in part, 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 September 30, 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.

Derivative liability	$	34,804	$	34,804	$	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
September 30, 2020
Derivative liability	$	—	$	34,804	$	—	$	34,804
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 September 30, 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 following table presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2020 and 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 nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, except for those properties sold prior to September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these assets are described after the table.

	Fair Value

(a)Represents the fair value of the Company’s Streets of Yorktown investment property as of September 30, 2020, the date the asset was measured at fair value. The estimated fair value of Streets of Yorktown was based upon third-party comparable sales prices, derived from property-specific information, market transactions and other industry data and are considered significant unobservable inputs.

(b)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.

(c)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:

	September 30, 2020	December 31, 2019
Mortgages payable, net – range of discount rates used	3.7% to 4.2%	3.2% to 3.6%
Unsecured notes payable, net – weighted average discount rate used	4.40%	3.79%
Unsecured term loans, net – weighted average credit spread portion of discount rate used	1.93%	1.26%
Unsecured revolving line of credit – credit spread portion of discount rate used	1.65%	1.05%

There were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Income taxes	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.
Use of estimates	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.
Reclassification	In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation. Specifically, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the reserve for uncollectible lease income of $1,860 has been presented as a component of “Changes in accounts receivable, net” rather than the previous presentation where it was included as a component of “Other, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows within “Cash flows from operating activities.” There has been no change to “Net cash provided by operating activities” for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as a result of this reclassification.
Consolidation	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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

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 relationships and has disregarded the potential economic mismatches in hedging relationships due to reference rate reform during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

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 provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Prior to the Q&A, 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, a company determines, on a lease-by-lease basis, if a lease concession is the result of a new arrangement with the tenant or if it is under the enforceable rights and obligations within the lease agreement. Under the relief guidance, a company can account for certain concessions (i) as if no changes to the existing lease contract were made or (ii) as a negative variable lease adjustment to lease income. This optionality is offered in circumstances when the total future payments required by the modified contract are substantially the same as the total payments required by the existing contract. Also, under the relief guidance, a company can account for certain other concessions only as a variable lease adjustment. This singular relief option is offered in circumstances including when the total future payments required by the modified contract are less than the total payments required by the existing contract (i.e., abatement) or when the total payments required are the same, but extend over a longer period of time as compared to the existing contract.

Application of the relief guidance is optional; however, it is required to be applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. The Company has elected to apply the relief guidance where lease concessions (i) have been granted as relief due to the COVID-19 pandemic and (ii) result in the cash flows remaining to be substantially the same or less than the existing contract.

Based on the policy elections made under the relief guidance as well as modifications that do not qualify for the relief guidance, the Company has accounted for lease concessions as follows:

Lease Concession	Accounting Treatment of Concession
(i) Deferral of payment to a future period, with no change in lease term	Treated as if there are no changes to the existing lease contract; no change to lease income recognized, including straight-line rental income.
(ii) Deferral of payment to a future period, with a modest extension of the lease term (iii) Abatement (iv) Combination of abatement and deferral	Treated as a variable lease adjustment; reduction in lease income for the abated and deferred amounts; however, no change in straight-line rental income. Any deferred amounts will be recognized as lease income when payment is received.
(v) Significant lease extension resulting in an increase in cash flows	Existing lease modification guidance under ASC 842 is followed.

(a)Represents the fair value of the Company’s Streets of Yorktown investment property as of September 30, 2020, the date the asset was measured at fair value. The estimated fair value of Streets of Yorktown was based upon third-party comparable sales prices, derived from property-specific information, market transactions and other industry data and are considered significant unobservable inputs.

(b)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.

(c)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:

	September 30, 2020	December 31, 2019
Mortgages payable, net – range of discount rates used	3.7% to 4.2%	3.2% to 3.6%
