BLACK CREEK DIVERSIFIED PROPERTY FUND INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refers to Black Creek Diversified Property Fund Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in the annual audited financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) have been omitted. As such, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2019 (“2018 Form 10-K”).
As used herein, the term “commercial” refers to our office, retail and industrial properties or tenants, as applicable.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases (Subtopic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which provides guidance for greater transparency in financial reporting by organizations that lease assets such as real estate, airplanes and manufacturing equipment by requiring such organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The standard also requires new disclosures within the notes accompanying the consolidated financial statements. Additional guidance and targeted improvements to ASU 2016-02 were made through the issuance of supplemental ASUs. In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-01, “Leases (Subtopic 842): Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842” (“ASU 2018-01”), which updated ASU 2016-02 to include land easements under the updated guidance, including the option to elect the practical expedient discussed above. In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-20, “Narrow—Scope Improvements for Lessors” (“ASU 2018-20”), which updated 2016-02 by providing the option to elect a practical expedient for lessors to exclude sales and other similar taxes from the transaction price of the contract, allows lessors to exclude from revenue and expense lessor costs paid directly to a third party by lessees, and clarifies lessors’ accounting for variable payments related to both lease and non-lease components. In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-01, “Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements” (“ASU 2019-01”), which updates ASU 2016-02 to clarify that entities are not required to provide interim disclosures related to their adoption of ASU 2016-02 as required for other accounting changes and error corrections.
We adopted ASU 2016-02 and its supplemental ASUs when they became effective for us, as of the reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, and we elected the practical expedients available for implementation under the standards. Under the practical expedients election, we were not required to reassess: (i) whether an expired or existing contract met the definition of a lease; (ii) the lease classification at January 1, 2019 for existing leases; and (iii) whether costs previously capitalized as initial direct costs would continue to be amortized. We also adopted the practical expedient that allowed us to not separate tenant reimbursement revenue from rental revenue if certain criteria were met. We assessed the criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental revenue and the related tenant reimbursement revenue are the same and the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. As such, we account for and presented rental revenue and tenant reimbursement revenue as a single component in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The adoption of these standards did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In July 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-07, “Codification Updates to SEC Sections” (“ASU 2019-07”), which updates various codification topics by clarifying or improving the disclosure requirements to align with the SEC’s regulations. We adopted this standard immediately upon its issuance. The adoption did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Real Estate Property Impairment
During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded an incremental impairment of $0.1 million related to the retail property located in the Holbrook, Massachusetts market that had been previously impaired during 2018, which is described below. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded a total of $13.4 million of non-cash impairment charges related to two retail properties, one located in the Jacksonville, Florida market, which was disposed of in October 2018, and one located in the Holbrook, Massachusetts market, which was disposed of in August 2019. The impairment was a result of shortened hold periods based on the consideration of potential disposition options for these properties, which ultimately resulted in the reduction of our estimated future cash flows below our net book value.

3. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
We classify a property as held for sale when certain criteria are met, in accordance with GAAP. Assets classified as held for sale are expected to be sold to a third party. At such time the property meets the held for sale criteria, the respective assets and liabilities are presented separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and depreciation is no longer recognized. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or their estimated fair value less the costs to sell the assets.
As of September 30, 2019, we had two office properties (Park Place 1 and Austin-Mueller Health Center) that met the criteria to be classified as held for sale. The following table summarizes the amounts held for sale as of September 30, 2019. We subsequently sold Park Place 1 in October 2019 and are expected to sell Austin-Mueller Health Center in December 2019, subject to certain extension options. See “Note 12” for additional information regarding the subsequent disposition of Park Place 1.

(1)
The effective interest rate is calculated based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus a margin ranging from 1.30% to 2.10%, depending on our consolidated leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2019, the unused and available portions under the line of credit were approximately $377.0 million and $217.6 million, respectively. The line of credit is available for general business purposes including, but not limited to, refinancing of existing indebtedness and financing the acquisition of permitted investments, including commercial properties.
(2)
The effective interest rate is calculated based on LIBOR, plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.05%, depending on our consolidated leverage ratio. Total commitments for this term loan are $325.0 million. There are no amounts unused or available under this term loan as of September 30, 2019. The weighted-average interest rate is the all-in interest rate, including the effects of interest rate swap agreements relating to $150.0 million in borrowings under this term loan.
(3)
The effective interest rate is calculated based on LIBOR, plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.05%, depending on our consolidated leverage ratio. Total commitments for this term loan are $200.0 million. There are no amounts unused or available under this term loans as of September 30, 2019. The weighted-average interest rate is the all-in interest rate and is fixed through interest swap agreements.
(4)
The amount outstanding as of September 30, 2019 includes a $51.3 million floating-rate mortgage note that was subject to an interest rate spread of 1.65% over one-month LIBOR, which we have effectively fixed using an interest rate swap at 2.85% until the designated cash flow hedge expires in July 2021. This mortgage note matures in August 2023.
(5)
The effective interest rate is calculated based on LIBOR plus a margin. In conjunction with the disposition of 655 Montgomery in May 2019, we repaid approximately $83.1 million of floating-rate secured debt that would have matured in September 2020. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our floating-rate mortgage notes were subject to a weighted-average interest rate spread of 2.25% and 2.47%, respectively.
(6)
The weighted-average remaining term of our borrowings was approximately 3.3 years as of September 30, 2019, excluding the impact of certain extension options.
As of September 30, 2019, the principal payments due on our debt during each of the next five years and thereafter were as follows:

The term of the line of credit may be extended pursuant to two six-month extension options, subject to certain conditions.
LIBOR is expected to be discontinued after 2021. As of September 30, 2019, our line of credit, term loans and a $51.3 million mortgage note are our only indebtedness with initial maturity dates beyond 2021 that have exposure to LIBOR. The agreements governing the line of credit, term loans and a mortgage note provide procedures for determining a replacement or alternative base rate in the event that LIBOR is discontinued. However, there can be no assurances as to whether such replacement or alternative base rate will be more or less favorable than LIBOR. We intend to monitor the developments with respect to the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021 and work with our lenders to seek to ensure any transition away from LIBOR will have minimal impact on our financial condition, but can provide no assurances regarding the impact of the discontinuation of LIBOR.
Debt Covenants
Our line of credit, term loans and mortgage note agreements contain various property-level covenants, including customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, the line of credit and term loan agreements contain certain corporate-level financial covenants, including leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, and tangible net worth thresholds. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of September 30, 2019.
Derivative Instruments
To manage interest rate risk for certain of our variable-rate debt, we use interest rate derivative instruments as part of our risk management strategy. These derivatives are designed to mitigate the risk of future interest rate increases by either providing a fixed interest rate or capping the variable interest rate for a limited, pre-determined period of time. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate payments over the life of the interest rate swap agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate caps involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty at the end of each period in which the interest rate exceeds the agreed fixed price. Interest rate caps are not designated as hedges. Certain of our variable-rate borrowings are not hedged, and therefore, to an extent, we have ongoing exposure to interest rate movements.
During the next 12 months, we estimate that approximately $2.1 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense related to active effective hedges of existing floating-rate debt, and we estimate that approximately $0.1 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense related to terminated hedges where the likelihood of the originally hedged interest payments remains probable.

5. FAIR VALUE
We estimate the fair value of our financial instruments using available market information and valuation methodologies we believe to be appropriate for these purposes. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that we would realize upon disposition.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:
Derivative Instruments. The derivative instruments are interest rate swaps and interest rate caps whose fair value is estimated using market-standard valuation models. Such models involve using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves. We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our nonperformance risk and respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements, which we have concluded are not material to the valuation. Due to these derivative instruments being unique and not actively traded, the fair value is classified as Level 2. See “Note 4” above for further discussion of our derivative instruments.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, due from/to affiliates, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and distributions payable approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The table below includes fair values for certain of our financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We and the Operating Partnership are not presently involved in any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us or our investments.
Environmental Matters
A majority of the properties we acquire are subject to environmental reviews either by us or the previous owners. In addition, we may incur environmental remediation costs associated with certain land parcels we may acquire in connection with the development of the land. We have acquired certain properties in urban and industrial areas that may have been leased to or previously owned by commercial and industrial companies that discharged hazardous materials. We may purchase various environmental insurance policies to mitigate our exposure to environmental liabilities. We are not aware of any environmental liabilities that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations as of September 30, 2019.
11. SEGMENT FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Our four reportable segments are office, retail, multi-family and industrial. Factors used to determine our reportable segments include the physical and economic characteristics of our properties and the related operating activities. Our chief operating decision makers rely primarily on net operating income to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing segment performance. Net operating income is the key performance metric that captures the unique operating characteristics of each segment. Items that are not directly assignable to a segment, such as certain corporate items, are not allocated but reflected as reconciling items.
The following table reflects our total assets by business segment as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

We consider net operating income to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure and believe net operating income provides useful information to our investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because net operating income reflects the operating performance of our properties and excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of the properties, such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, advisory fees, impairment charges, interest expense, gains on sale of properties, other income and expense, gains and losses on the extinguishment of debt and noncontrolling interests. However, net operating income should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it excludes such items, which could materially impact our results of operations. Further, our net operating income may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies, as they may use different methodologies for calculating net operating income. Therefore, we believe net income, as defined by GAAP, to be the most appropriate measure to evaluate our overall financial performance.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Acquisition Under Contract
On October 23, 2019, we entered into a contract to acquire a multi-family property located in Sandy Springs, Georgia with a purchase price of approximately $117.0 million. There can be no assurance that we will complete the acquisition of the property under contract.
Disposition of Property
On October 25, 2019, we sold to an unrelated third party an office property located in Dublin, California (“Park Place 1”) that was classified as held for sale as of September 30, 2019, for gross proceeds of approximately $78.3 million. Our accounting basis (net of accumulated depreciation and amortization) for this real estate property as of the closing date was approximately $62.6 million.

The following discussion and analysis should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may be deemed to be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the “Securities Act,” and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the “Exchange Act.” Such forward-looking statements relate to, without limitation, our future capital expenditures, distributions, acquisitions and dispositions (including the amount and nature thereof), other developments and trends of the real estate industry, business strategies, and the expansion and growth of our operations. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “project,” “continue,” or the negative of these words, or other similar words or terms. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:
the impact of macroeconomic trends, such as the unemployment rate and availability of credit, which may have a negative effect on the following, among other things:
the fundamentals of our business, including overall market occupancy, tenant space utilization, and rental rates;
the financial condition of our tenants, some of which are financial, legal and other professional firms, our lenders, and institutions that hold our cash balances and short-term investments, which may expose us to increased risks of breach or default by these parties; and
the value of our real estate assets, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or obtain or maintain debt financing secured by our properties or on an unsecured basis;
general risks affecting the real estate industry (including, without limitation, the inability to enter into or renew leases, dependence on tenants’ financial condition, and competition from other developers, owners and operators of real estate);
our ability to effectively raise and deploy proceeds from our ongoing public offerings;
risks associated with the demand for liquidity under our share redemption program and our ability to meet such demand;
risks associated with the availability and terms of debt and equity financing and the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments, including the risk associated with interest rates impacting the cost and/or availability of financing;
the business opportunities that may be presented to and pursued by us, changes in laws or regulations (including changes to laws governing the taxation of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”));
conflicts of interest arising out of our relationships with Black Creek Diversified Property Advisors Group LLC (the “Sponsor”), the Advisor, and their affiliates;
changes in accounting principles, policies and guidelines applicable to REITs;
environmental, regulatory and/or safety requirements; and
the availability and cost of comprehensive insurance, including coverage for terrorist acts.
For further discussion of these and other factors, see Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 10-K, as supplemented by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise.

OVERVIEW
General
Black Creek Diversified Property Fund Inc. is a NAV-based perpetual life REIT that was formed on April 11, 2005, as a Maryland corporation. We are primarily focused on investing in and operating a diverse portfolio of real property. As of September 30, 2019, our real estate portfolio consisted of 48 properties, which includes two properties classified as held for sale and seven properties that are part of the DST Program (as defined below), totaling approximately 8.6 million square feet located in 19 markets throughout the U.S.
We have operated and elected to be treated as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2006, and we intend to continue to operate in accordance with the requirements for qualification as a REIT. We utilize an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (“UPREIT”) organizational structure to hold all or substantially all of our assets through the Operating Partnership.
As a NAV-based perpetual life REIT, we intend to conduct ongoing public primary offerings of our common stock on a perpetual basis. We also intend to conduct an ongoing distribution reinvestment plan offering for our stockholders to reinvest distributions in our shares. From time to time, we intend to file new registration statements on Form S-11 with the SEC to register additional shares of common stock so that we may continuously offer shares of common stock pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we raised $125.4 million of gross proceeds from the sale of common stock in our ongoing public primary offerings and $15.3 million from the sale of common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan. See “Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for more information about our public offerings.
Additionally, we have a program to raise capital through private placement offerings by selling beneficial interests in specific Delaware statutory trusts holding real properties (the “DST Program”). These private placement offerings are exempt from registration requirements pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. We anticipate that these interests may serve as replacement properties for investors seeking to complete like-kind exchange transactions under Section 1031 of the Code. Similar to our prior private placement offerings, we expect that the DST Program will give us the opportunity to expand and diversify our capital raise strategies by offering what we believe to be an attractive and unique investment product for investors that may be seeking replacement properties to complete like-kind exchange transactions under Section 1031 of the Code. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we sold $151.5 million of interests related to the DST Program.
We currently operate in four reportable segments: office, retail, multi-family and industrial. The following table summarizes our real estate portfolio (including properties classified as held for sale) by segment as of September 30, 2019:

We will continue to focus our investment activities on expanding a high-quality, diversified real estate portfolio throughout the U.S. Although we generally target investments in four primary property categories (office, retail, multi-family and industrial), our charter and bylaws do not preclude us from investing in other types of commercial property, real estate debt, or real estate-related equity securities. Our near-term investment strategy is likely to prioritize new investments in the industrial and multi-family sectors due to attractive fundamental conditions. We have been focused on selling certain office and retail assets. The disposition of these properties has helped us to increase our current allocation to multi-family and industrial real estate assets and liquidity to pursue new investment opportunities. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in this investment strategy, including with respect to any particular asset class. To a lesser extent we may invest in other types of real estate including, but not limited to, hospitality, medical offices, student housing and unimproved land. We currently do not intend to invest in these other types of real estate. Additionally, to provide diversification to our portfolio, we may continue to invest in real estate-related debt, which will generally include mortgage loans secured by real estate, mezzanine debt and other related investments. Any investments in real estate-related securities generally

23


will focus on equity issued by public and private real estate companies and certain other securities, with the primary goal of such investments being the preservation of liquidity in support of our share redemption program.
Net Asset Value
Our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, has adopted valuation procedures, as amended from time to time, that contain a comprehensive set of methodologies to be used in connection with the calculation of our NAV. One fundamental element of the valuation process, the valuation of our real property portfolio, is managed by Altus Group U.S., Inc., an independent valuation firm (the “Independent Valuation Firm”) approved by our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors. All parties engaged by us in the calculation of our NAV, including the Advisor, are subject to the oversight of our board of directors. As part of this process, our Advisor reviews the estimates of the values of our real property portfolio and real estate-related assets for consistency with our valuation guidelines and the overall reasonableness of the valuation conclusions, and informs our board of directors of its conclusions (as needed, but at least once per year as part of their annual review, described below). Although our Independent Valuation Firm or other pricing sources may consider any comments received from us or our Advisor to their individual valuations, the final estimated values of our real properties or certain other assets and liabilities are determined by the Independent Valuation Firm or other pricing source. Our Independent Valuation Firm is available to meet with our board of directors to review valuation information as well as our valuation guidelines and the operation and results of the valuation process generally. Our board of directors has the right to engage additional valuation firms and pricing sources to review the valuation process or valuations, if deemed appropriate. Every month our senior management team and Altus hold an NAV committee meeting to review the prior month’s adjustments to NAV and discuss any possible changes to the NAV policies and procedures which may be recommended to the board of directors. The information reviewed by this committee is summarized for the audit committee. At least once each calendar year, our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, reviews the appropriateness of our valuation procedures. With respect to the valuation of our properties, the Independent Valuation Firm provides the board of directors with periodic valuation reports. From time to time our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, may adopt changes to the valuation procedures if it (i) determines that such changes are likely to result in a more accurate reflection of NAV or a more efficient or less costly procedure for the determination of NAV without having a material adverse effect on the accuracy of such determination or (ii) otherwise reasonably believes a change is appropriate for the determination of NAV. We will publicly announce material changes to our valuation procedures or the identity or role of the Independent Valuation Firm. See Exhibit 4.4 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a more detailed description of our valuation procedures, including important disclosure regarding real property valuations provided by the Independent Valuation Firm.
As used below, “Fund Interests” means our outstanding shares of common stock, along with the OP Units held by third parties, and “Aggregate Fund NAV” means the NAV of all of the Fund Interests.

When the fair value of our real estate assets is calculated for the purposes of determining our NAV per share, the calculation is done using widely accepted methodologies and, as appropriate, the GAAP principles within the FASB Accounting Standards Codification under Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC Topic 820”). However, our valuation procedures and our NAV are not subject to GAAP and will not be subject to independent audit.
Our valuation procedures, which address specifically each category of our assets and liabilities and are applied separately from the preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, involve adjustments from historical cost. There are certain factors which cause NAV to be different from net book value on a GAAP basis. Most significantly, the valuation of our real estate assets, which is the largest component of our NAV calculation, is provided to us by the Independent Valuation Firm on a monthly basis. For GAAP purposes, these assets are generally recorded at depreciated or amortized cost. In addition, we value our debt-related investments and real estate-related liabilities generally in accordance with fair value standards under GAAP. Other examples that will cause our NAV to differ from our GAAP net book value include the straight-lining of rent, which results in a receivable for GAAP purposes that is not included in the determination of our NAV. Third party appraisers may value our individual real estate assets using appraisal standards that deviate from fair value standards under GAAP. The use of such appraisal standards may cause our NAV to deviate from GAAP fair value principles. We did not develop our valuation procedures with the intention of complying with fair value concepts under GAAP and, therefore, there could be differences between our fair values and the fair values derived from the principal market or most advantageous market concepts of establishing fair value under GAAP.
Under GAAP, we record liabilities for ongoing distribution fees (i) that we currently owe the Dealer Manager under the terms of our Dealer Manager agreement and (ii) for an estimate that we may pay to the Dealer Manager in future periods for shares of our common stock. As of September 30, 2019, we estimated approximately $13.3 million of ongoing distribution fees were potentially payable to the Dealer Manager. We do not deduct the liability for estimated future distribution fees in our calculation of NAV since we intend for our NAV to reflect our estimated value on the date that we determine our NAV. Accordingly, our estimated NAV at any given time does not include consideration of any estimated future distribution fees that may become payable after such date.
We include no discounts to our NAV for the illiquid nature of our shares, including the limitations on our stockholders’ ability to redeem shares under our share redemption program, our ability to redeem shares under our share redemption program and our ability to suspend or terminate our share redemption program at any time. Our NAV generally does not consider exit costs (e.g. selling costs and commissions related to the sale of a property) that would likely be incurred if our assets and liabilities were liquidated or sold today. While we may use market pricing concepts to value individual components of our NAV, our per share NAV is not derived from the market pricing information of open-end real estate funds listed on stock exchanges.
Our NAV is not a representation, warranty or guarantee that: (i) we would fully realize our NAV upon a sale of our assets; (ii) shares of our common stock would trade at our per share NAV on a national securities exchange; and (iii) a stockholder would be able to realize the per share NAV if such stockholder attempted to sell his or her shares to a third party.
The valuation for our real properties as of September 30, 2019 was provided by the Independent Valuation Firm in accordance with our valuation procedures and determined starting with the appraised value. The aggregate real property valuation of $2.14 billion compares to a GAAP basis of real properties, including assets held for sale, (net of intangible lease liabilities and before accumulated amortization and depreciation) of $1.99 billion, representing an increase of approximately $150.0 million, or 7.5%. Certain key assumptions that were used by the Independent Valuation Firm in the discounted cash flow analysis are set forth in the following table based on weighted-averages by property type.

The valuation of our debt obligations as of September 30, 2019 was in accordance with fair value standards under GAAP. The key assumption used in the discounted cash flow analysis was the market interest rate. Market interest rates relating to the underlying debt obligations are based on unobservable Level 3 inputs, which we have determined to be our best estimate of current market interest rates of similar instruments. The weighted-average market interest rate used in the September 30, 2019 valuation was 3.60%.
A change in the market interest rates used would impact the calculation of the fair value of our debt obligations. For example, assuming all other factors remain constant, a decrease in the weighted-average market interest rate of 25 basis points would increase the fair value of our debt obligations by approximately 0.18%. Alternatively, assuming all other factors remain constant, an increase in the weighted-average market interest rate of 25 basis points would decrease the fair value of our debt obligations by approximately 0.63%.
Our hedge instruments are valued based on market expectations of future interest rates (the “forward interest rate curve”). All else equal, an upward shift in the forward interest rate curve would increase the value of our current hedge positions, resulting in a positive impact to our NAV, and a downward shift in the forward interest rate curve would decrease the value of our current hedge positions, resulting in a negative impact to our NAV.
Fund Performance
Our NAV decreased from $7.44 per share as of December 31, 2018 to $7.35 per share as of September 30, 2019. The largest driver of this decline was associated with the interest rate yield curve shifting significantly since year-end as evidenced by the 10-year treasury yield dropping by over 100 basis points, which lowered the market value of our interest rate derivative instruments. Notwithstanding any mark to market gains or losses, the value of these instruments will eventually revert to par upon maturity assuming they are held to maturity as currently intended.
The impact of interest rates on our NAV has been more noticeable this year given the volatility of interest rates. The fluctuation of interest rates primarily impacts how our hedge and debt instruments are valued in calculating our NAV. The following table summarizes the impact of interest rates on our Class I share return:

Performance is measured by total return, which includes income and appreciation (i.e., changes in NAV and distributions) and reinvestment of all distributions (“Total Return”) for the respective time period. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Performance data quoted above is historical for Class I shares only. Performance is different for other share classes. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Represents the return, which if achieved each year during the respective time period and compounded annually, would produce the Total Return for the respective time period.

NAV inception is September 30, 2012, which is when we first sold shares of our common stock after converting to an NAV-based REIT on July 12, 2012. Investors in our fixed price offerings prior to NAV inception on September 30, 2012 are likely to have a lower return.
(4)
Amounts presented are based on adjusted NAVs calculated as if we had not ever marked our hedge or debt instruments to market. The adjusted NAVs include the incremental impacts to advisory fees and performance fees; however, the adjusted NAVs are not assumed to have impacted any share purchase or redemption. For purposes of calculating fund performance, transactions were assumed to occur at the adjusted NAVs.
Additionally, the disposition of 655 Montgomery in May 2019 resulted in a notable decline in our NAV, whereby the contracted sales price, net of selling costs and customary closing credits and provisions, was lower than the fair value at which we were carrying the asset in accordance with our NAV calculation and valuation procedures. Consistent with our valuation procedures, certain purchase price adjustments and one-time transaction costs related to this disposition were recognized in our NAV calculation upon the transaction becoming probable. The gross sales price of 655 Montgomery was approximately $191.5 million, before selling costs and customary closing credits and provisions. As of the date of closing, our aggregate cost basis (before accumulated amortization and depreciation) in 655 Montgomery was approximately $135.2 million. The timing of valuation changes recorded in our NAV will not necessarily correlate with the changes recorded on our condensed consolidated financial statements prepared pursuant to GAAP.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Summary of 2019 Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we completed the following activities:
We acquired three industrial properties (Tri-County Distribution Center, Florence Logistics Center and World Connect Logistics Center) comprising 1.1 million square feet for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $83.3 million. Additionally, we acquired two multi-family properties (The Daley and Juno Winter Park) comprising 601 units for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $179.9 million.
We sold three office properties (655 Montgomery, Rialto and Campus Road Office Center), one retail property (Holbrook) and two outparcels for net proceeds of approximately $178.0 million, which is net of the secured floating-rate debt repayment of approximately $83.1 million made in conjunction with the 655 Montgomery disposition. We recorded a net gain on sale of approximately $96.5 million.
We leased approximately 801,000 square feet, which included 257,000 square feet of new leases and 544,000 square feet of renewals. This leasing activity contributed to the increase in our real estate portfolio’s leased percentage from 90.6% as of December 31, 2018 to 93.2% as of September 30, 2019.
In January 2019, we amended and restated our existing senior unsecured credit agreements, aggregating $875.0 million, by entering into a $450.0 million line of credit and $525.0 million under our two term loans, for an aggregate $975.0 million of commitments.
We decreased our leverage ratio from 47.7% as of December 31, 2018, to 40.4% as of September 30, 2019. Our leverage ratio for reporting purposes is calculated as the outstanding principal balance of our property-level and corporate-level debt divided by the fair value of our real property and debt-related investments (determined in accordance with our valuation procedures). 
We redeemed 11.3 million shares of common stock at a weighted-average purchase price of $7.35 per share for an aggregate amount of $82.8 million.

Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Same Periods in 2018
The following table summarizes our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same periods in 2018. We evaluate the performance of consolidated operating properties we own and manage using a same store analysis because the population of properties in this analysis is consistent from period to period, thereby eliminating the effects of any material changes in the composition of the aggregate portfolio on performance measures. We have defined the same store portfolio to include consolidated operating properties owned for the entirety of both the current and prior reporting periods for which the operations had been stabilized. Other operating properties not meeting the same store criteria are reflected in the non-same store portfolio. The same store operating portfolio for the three-month periods presented below includes 42 properties totaling 6.8 million square feet owned as of July 1, 2018, which portfolio represented 79.3% of total rentable square feet as of September 30, 2019. The same store operating portfolio for the nine-month periods presented below includes 41 properties totaling approximately 6.5 million square feet owned as of January 1, 2018, which portfolio represented 75.2% of total rentable square feet as of September 30, 2019.

Rental Revenues. Rental revenues are comprised of rental income, straight-line rent, and amortization of above- and below-market lease assets and liabilities. Total rental revenues decreased by $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to a decrease in our non-same store portfolio rental revenues as a result of eleven dispositions since January 1, 2018, which was partially offset by seven acquisitions since that same date. Total rental revenues decreased by $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to a decrease in our non-same store portfolio rental revenues as a result of our disposition activity, partially offset by our acquisition activity, as described above. The non-same store portfolio rental revenues decrease was partially offset by an increase in our same store portfolio rental revenues. Our same store portfolio rental revenues grew primarily due to an increase in percentage leased at our Park Place 1, 3 Second Street, Preston Sherry Plaza and CityView office properties, as well as the lease termination fee generated at our Venture Corporate Center office property. This was partially offset by vacancy at our Braintree and Durgin Square retail properties.

Rental Expenses. Rental expenses include certain property operating expenses typically reimbursed by our tenants, such as real estate taxes, property insurance, property management fees, repair and maintenance, and include certain non-recoverable expenses, such as consulting services and roof repairs. Total rental expenses increased by $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to an increase in same store rental expenses as a result of higher real estate taxes at certain of our properties. This was partially offset by a decrease in non-same store rental expenses as a result of our disposition activity since January 1, 2018, which was partially offset by our acquisition activity, as described above. Total rental expenses decreased by $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to a decrease in non-same store rental expenses as a result of our disposition activity since January 1, 2018, which was partially offset by our acquisition activity, as described above.

Other Income and Expenses. The net amount of other expenses decreased by $17.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily as a result of an increase in gain recorded on the sale of real estate property of $9.5 million due to the sale of Campus Road Office Center in 2019, as well as a decrease of $6.5 million in impairments recorded. The net amount of other income increased by $97.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to: (i) an increase in gain recorded on the sale of real estate property of $82.7 million due to the sale of 655 Montgomery, Rialto and Campus Road Office Center office properties in 2019; (ii) a decrease of $13.3 million in impairments recorded; (iii) a decrease of $1.2 million in advisory fees; and (iv) a net gain on extinguishment of debt and financing commitments of $1.0 million recorded in 2019. These drivers were partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $1.4 million that was primarily attributable to higher interest expense on financing obligations associated with an increase in the sale of interests related to our DST Program.

Segment Summary for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Same Periods in 2018
Our segments are based on our internal reporting of operating results used to assess performance based on the type of our properties. Our markets are aggregated into four reportable segments: office, retail, multi-family and industrial. These segments are comprised of the markets by which management and its operating teams conduct and monitor business. See “Note 11 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further information on our segments. Management considers rental revenues and net operating income (“NOI”) aggregated by segment to be the appropriate way to analyze performance. See “Additional Measures of Performance” below for detail regarding the use of NOI. The following table summarizes certain operating trends in our consolidated properties by segment:

Office Segment. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, our office segment same store NOI increased $0.5 million as compared to the same period in 2018. This growth was driven by an increase in percentage leased primarily at our Park Place 1, 3 Second Street, Preston Sherry Plaza and CityView properties, which was partially offset by an increase in operating expenses at Park Place 1 and Bank of America Tower properties. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our office segment same store NOI increased $3.3 million as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily as a result of an increase in average percentage leased at our Park Place 1, 3 Second Street, Preston Sherry Plaza and CityView properties; the lease termination fee generated at our our Venture Corporate Center property; and a reduction in real estate tax and operating expense at two of our properties. This was partially offset by an increase in real estate tax at certain of our properties.
Retail Segment. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, our retail segment same store NOI decreased $0.9 million as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to a decrease in average percentage leased in our retail segment same store portfolio that was driven by vacancy at our Durgin Square and Braintree properties. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our retail segment same store NOI decreased $1.8 million as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to a decrease in average percentage leased in our retail segment same store portfolio that was driven by vacancy at our Durgin Square and Braintree properties; an early termination fee received at our Manomet property during the first quarter of 2018; and an increase in real estate tax and utilities at certain of our retail properties.

Multi-family Segment. Same store information is not provided for our multi-family segment due to the fact that all of our multi-family properties were acquired in 2019.
Industrial Segment. Our industrial segment same store NOI remained relatively constant between the periods under comparison.
ADDITIONAL MEASURES OF PERFORMANCE
Net Income and NOI
We define NOI as GAAP rental revenues less GAAP rental expenses. We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure and believe NOI provides useful information to our investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because NOI reflects the operating performance of our properties and excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of the properties, such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, advisory fees, impairment charges, interest expense, gains on sale of properties, other income and expense, gains and losses on the extinguishment of debt and noncontrolling interests. However, NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it excludes such items, which could materially impact our results of operations. Further, our NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies, as they may use different methodologies for calculating NOI. Therefore, we believe net income, as defined by GAAP, to be the most appropriate measure to evaluate our overall financial performance. Refer to “Results of Operations—Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Same Periods in 2018” above for a reconciliation of our GAAP net (loss) income to NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
Funds From Operations (“FFO”)
We believe that FFO, in addition to net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, are useful supplemental performance measures that our management uses to evaluate our consolidated operating performance. However, this supplemental, non-GAAP measure should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or to cash flows from operating activities as an indication of our performance and is not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. No single measure can provide users of financial information with sufficient information and only our disclosures read as a whole can be relied upon to adequately portray our financial position, liquidity, and results of operations. In addition, other REITs may define FFO and similar measures differently and choose to treat potentially other accounting line items in a manner different from us due to specific differences in investment and operating strategy or for other reasons.
FFO. As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), FFO is a non-GAAP measure that excludes certain items such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization. We believe FFO is a meaningful supplemental measure of our operating performance that is useful to investors because depreciation and amortization in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. By excluding gains or losses on the sale of assets, we believe FFO provides a helpful additional measure of our consolidated operating performance on a comparative basis. We use FFO as an indication of our consolidated operating performance and as a guide to making decisions about future investments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Our primary sources of capital for meeting our cash requirements include debt financings, cash generated from operating activities, net proceeds from our public offerings, and asset sales. Our principal uses of funds are distributions to our stockholders, payments under our debt obligations, redemption payments, acquisition of properties and other investments, and capital expenditures. Over time, we intend to fund a majority of our cash needs, including the repayment of debt and capital expenditures, from operating cash flows and refinancings. As of September 30, 2019, we had approximately $129.7 million of borrowings maturing in the next 12 months. Of this amount, $127.0 million relates to a mortgage note secured by our 3 Second Street office property, which may be extended pursuant to two one-year extension options, subject to certain conditions. We expect to be able to repay our principal obligations over the next 12 months from operating cash flows and through refinancings.
The Advisor, subject to the oversight of our board of directors and, under certain circumstances, the investment committee or other committees established by our board of directors, will evaluate potential acquisitions or dispositions and will engage in negotiations with buyers, sellers and lenders on our behalf. Pending investment in property, debt, or other investments, we may decide to temporarily invest any unused proceeds from our public offerings in certain investments that are expected to yield lower returns than those earned on real estate assets. These lower returns may affect our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. Potential future sources of capital include proceeds from secured or unsecured financings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from our public offerings, proceeds from the sale of assets, and undistributed funds from operations.
We believe that our cash on-hand, anticipated net offering proceeds, proceeds from our line of credit, and other financing and disposition activities should be sufficient to meet our anticipated future acquisition, operating, debt service, distribution and redemption requirements.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by approximately $16.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, primarily as a result of a lease termination payment received at our Campus Road Office Center property during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, as well as a decrease in working capital including payment to the Advisor of the 2018 performance-based fee in 2019. There was no performance-based fee earned in 2017 that would have been paid in 2018. This was partially offset by an increase in property operations.
Net cash used in investing activities increased by approximately $111.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to our acquisition of our first multi-family properties (The Daley and Juno Winter Park) and an increase in capital expenditures for leasing and building improvements, which were partially offset by the proceeds received from the sale of three office properties, one retail property and two outparcels in 2019.
Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 of $56.5 million increased by approximately $152.0 million to net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 of $95.4 million. The change was primarily attributable to an increase in net offering activity from our DST Program and public offering, as well as a decrease in redemptions. These drivers were partially offset by a decrease in our net borrowing activity. The decrease in our borrowing activity was driven by repayment of a portion of our line of credit and repayment in full of mortgage notes that was partially offset by proceeds from additional borrowing under our term loan.
Capital Resources and Uses of Liquidity
In addition to our cash and cash equivalents balances available, our capital resources and uses of liquidity are as follows:
Line of Credit and Term Loans. As of September 30, 2019, we had an aggregate of $975.0 million of commitments under our credit agreements, including $450.0 million under our line of credit and $525.0 million under our two term loans. As of that date, we had: (i) approximately $73.0 million outstanding under our line of credit with a weighted-average effective interest rate of 3.42%; and (ii) $525.0 million outstanding under our term loans with a weighted-average effective interest rate of 3.22%, which were effectively fixed through the use of interest rate swaps.
The unused and available portions under our line of credit were $377.0 million and $217.6 million, respectively. Our $450.0 million line of credit matures in January 2023, and may be extended pursuant to two six-month extension options, subject to certain conditions, including the payment of an extension fee. Our $325.0 million term loan matures in January 2024, with no extension option available. Our $200.0 million term loan matures in February 2022, and may be extended pursuant to two one-year extension options, subject to certain conditions, including the payment of an extension fee. Our line of credit borrowings are available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the refinancing of other debt, payment of redemptions, acquisition and operation of permitted investments. Refer to “Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding our line of credit and term loans.
LIBOR is expected to be discontinued after 2021. As of September 30, 2019, our line of credit, term loans and a $51.3 million mortgage note are our only indebtedness with initial maturity dates beyond 2021 that have exposure to LIBOR. The agreements governing the line of credit, term loans and a mortgage note provide procedures for determining a replacement or alternative base rate in the event that LIBOR is discontinued. However, there can be no assurances as to whether such replacement or alternative base rate will be more or less favorable than LIBOR. We intend to monitor the developments with respect to the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021 and work with our lenders to seek to ensure any transition away from LIBOR will have minimal impact on our financial condition, but can provide no assurances regarding the impact of the discontinuation of LIBOR.
Mortgage Notes. As of September 30, 2019, we had property-level borrowings of approximately $266.5 million outstanding with a weighted-average remaining term of approximately 2.8 years. These borrowings are secured by mortgages or deeds of trust and related assignments and security interests in the collateralized properties, and had a weighted-average interest rate of 3.95%, which includes

33


the effects of interest rate swap agreements related to a $51.3 million variable-rate mortgage note. Refer to “Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding the mortgage notes.
Debt Covenants. Our line of credit, term loan and mortgage note agreements contain various property-level covenants, including customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, our line of credit and term loan agreements contain certain corporate level financial covenants, including leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, and tangible net worth thresholds. These covenants may limit our ability to incur additional debt, or to pay distributions. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of September 30, 2019.
Offering Proceeds. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the amount of aggregate gross proceeds raised from our public offerings (including shares issued pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan) was $140.7 million ($129.0 million net of direct selling costs).
Distributions. To obtain the favorable tax treatment accorded to REITs, we normally will be required each year to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our real estate investment trust taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for distributions paid and by excluding net capital gains. The payment of distributions is determined by our board of directors and may be adjusted at its discretion at any time. Distribution levels are set by our board of directors at a level it believes to be appropriate and sustainable based upon a review of a variety of factors including the current and anticipated market conditions, current and anticipated future performance and make-up of our investments, our overall financial projections and expected future cash needs. We intend to continue to make distributions on a monthly basis.
 The following table outlines sources used, as determined on a GAAP basis, to pay total gross distributions (which are paid in cash or reinvested in shares of our common stock through our distribution reinvestment plan) for the periods indicated below:

Amount reflects the total quarterly distribution rate, subject to adjustment for class-specific fees. Distributions were declared and paid as of monthly record dates. These monthly distributions have been aggregated and presented on a quarterly basis.
(2)
Includes other cash distributions consisting of: (i) distributions paid to OP Unit holders; (ii) regular distributions made to our former joint venture partners; and (iii) ongoing distribution fees paid to the Dealer Manager with respect to Class T, Class S and Class D shares.
For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, our FFO was $11.5 million, or 82.8% of our total distributions, and $16.4 million, or 125.5% of our total distributions, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, our FFO was $42.1 million, or 102.2% of our total distributions, and $40.6 million, or 103.4% of our total distributions, respectively. FFO is a non-GAAP operating metric and should not be used as a liquidity measure. However, management believes the relationship between FFO and distributions may be meaningful for investors to better understand the sustainability of our operating performance compared to distributions made. Refer to “Additional Measures of Performance” above for the definition of FFO, as well as a detailed reconciliation of our GAAP net income to FFO.

Redemptions. Below is a summary of redemptions and repurchases pursuant to our share redemption program for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Our board of directors may modify, suspend or terminate our current share redemption programs if it deems such action to be in the best interest of our stockholders. Refer to Part II, Item 2. “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds—Share Redemption Program” for detail regarding our share redemption program.

We funded these redemptions from borrowings under our revolving line of credit. We generally repay funds borrowed from our revolving line of credit from a variety of sources including: operating cash flows in excess of our distributions, proceeds from our public offerings, proceeds from the disposition of properties, and other longer-term borrowings.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Acquisition Under Contract
On October 23, 2019, we entered into a contract to acquire a multi-family property located in Sandy Springs, Georgia with a purchase price of approximately $117.0 million. There can be no assurance that we will complete the acquisition of the property under contract.
Disposition of Property
On October 25, 2019, we sold to an unrelated third party an office property located in Dublin, California (“Park Place 1”) that was classified as held for sale as of September 30, 2019, for gross proceeds of approximately $78.3 million. Our accounting basis (net of accumulated depreciation and amortization) for this real estate property as of the closing date was approximately $62.6 million.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
A summary of future obligations as of December 31, 2018 was disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K. Except as otherwise disclosed in “Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” relating to our debt obligations, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of September 30, 2019, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires significant management judgments, assumptions, and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. For a detailed description of our critical accounting estimates, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2018 Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2019, our critical accounting estimates have not changed from those described in our 2018 Form 10-K.

35


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows, and optimize overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we plan to borrow on a fixed interest rate basis for longer-term debt and utilize interest rate swap agreements on certain variable interest rate debt in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our results of operations. As of September 30, 2019, our debt instruments consisted of borrowings under our line of credit, term loans, and mortgage notes.
Fixed Interest Rate Debt. As of September 30, 2019, our fixed interest rate debt consisted of $139.5 million under our mortgage notes, which included a $51.3 million variable-rate mortgage note that we effectively fixed through the use of an interest rate swap until the designated cash flow hedge expires in July 2021; and $350.0 million of borrowings under our term loans that were effectively fixed through the use of interest rate swaps. In total, our fixed interest rate debt represented 56.6% of our total consolidated debt as of September 30, 2019. Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows on our fixed interest rate debt unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated. However, interest rate changes could affect the fair value of our fixed interest rate debt. As of September 30, 2019, the fair value and the carrying value of our fixed interest rate debt was $488.3 million and $489.5 million, respectively. The fair value estimate of our fixed interest rate debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing rates we would expect to pay for debt of a similar type and remaining maturity if the loans were originated on September 30, 2019. Given we generally expect to hold our fixed interest rate debt instruments to maturity or when they otherwise open up for prepayment at par, and the amounts due under such debt instruments should be limited to the outstanding principal balance and any accrued and unpaid interest at such time, we do not expect that the resulting change in fair value of our fixed interest rate debt instruments due to market fluctuations in interest rates, would have a significant impact on our operating cash flows.
Variable Interest Rate Debt. As of September 30, 2019, our consolidated variable interest rate debt consisted of $73.0 million of borrowings under our line of credit, $175.0 million of borrowings under our term loans and $127.0 million under our mortgage notes, which represented 43.4% of our total consolidated debt. Interest rate changes on our variable-rate debt could impact our future earnings and cash flows, but would not necessarily affect the fair value of such debt. As of September 30, 2019, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $375.0 million of consolidated borrowings. A hypothetical 10% change in the average interest rate on the outstanding balance of our variable interest rate debt as of September 30, 2019, would change our annual interest expense by approximately $0.8 million.
Derivative Instruments. As of September 30, 2019, we had 15 outstanding derivative instruments with a total notional amount of $747.9 million. These derivative instruments were comprised of interest rate swaps and interest rate caps that were designed to mitigate the risk of future interest rate increases by either providing a fixed interest rate or capping the variable interest rate for a limited, pre-determined period of time. See “Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further detail on our derivative instruments. We are exposed to credit risk of the counterparty to our interest rate cap and swap agreements in the event of non-performance under the terms of the agreements. If we were not able to replace these caps or swaps in the event of non-performance by the counterparty, we would be subject to variability of the interest rate on the amount outstanding under our debt that is fixed or capped through the use of the swaps or caps, respectively.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2019. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended September 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There are no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K, as supplemented by our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2019.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Share Redemption Program
While stockholders may request on a monthly basis that we redeem all or any portion of their shares pursuant to our share redemption program, we are not obligated to redeem any shares and may choose to redeem only some, or even none, of the shares that have been requested to be redeemed in any particular month, in our discretion. In addition, our ability to fulfill redemption requests is subject to a number of limitations. As a result, share redemptions may not be available each month. Under our share redemption program, to the extent we choose to redeem shares in any particular month, we will only redeem shares as of the last calendar day of that month (each such date, a “Redemption Date”). Shares redeemed on the Redemption Date remain outstanding on the Redemption Date and are no longer outstanding on the day following the Redemption Date. Redemptions will be made at the transaction price in effect on the Redemption Date, except that shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year will be redeemed at 95% of the transaction price (an “Early Redemption Deduction”). The Early Redemption Deduction may be waived in certain circumstances including: (i) in the case of redemption requests arising from the death or qualified disability of the holder; (ii) in the event that a stockholder’s shares are redeemed because the stockholder has failed to maintain the $2,000 minimum account balance or (iii) with respect to shares purchased through our distribution reinvestment plan. To have his or her shares redeemed, a stockholder’s redemption request and required documentation must be received in good order by 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the second to last business day of the applicable month. Settlements of share redemptions will be made within three business days of the Redemption Date. An investor may withdraw its redemption request by notifying the transfer agent before 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the last business day of the applicable month.
The total amount of aggregate redemptions of Class T, Class S, Class D, Class I and Class E shares (based on the price at which the shares are redeemed) will be limited during each calendar month to 2% of the aggregate NAV of all classes as of the last calendar day of the previous quarter and in each calendar quarter will be limited to 5% of the aggregate NAV of all classes of shares as of the last calendar day of the previous calendar quarter; provided, however, that every month and quarter each class of our common stock will be allocated capacity within such aggregate limit to allow stockholders in such class to either (a) redeem shares (based on the price at which the shares are redeemed) equal to at least 2% of the aggregate NAV of such share class as of the last calendar day of the previous quarter, or, if more limiting, (b) redeem shares (based on the price at which the shares are redeemed) over the course of a given quarter equal to at least 5% of the aggregate NAV of such share class as of the last calendar day of the previous quarter (collectively referred to herein as the “2% and 5% limits”), which in the second and third months of a quarter could be less than 2% of the NAV of such share class. In the event that we determine to redeem some but not all of the shares submitted for redemption during any month, shares redeemed at the end of the month will be redeemed on a pro rata basis. Even if the class-specific allocations are exceeded for a class, the program may offer such class additional capacity under the aggregate program limits. Redemptions and pro rata treatment, if necessary, will first be applied within the class-specific allocated capacity and then applied on an aggregate basis to the extent there is remaining capacity. All unsatisfied redemption requests must be resubmitted after the start of the next month or quarter, or upon the recommencement of the share redemption program, as applicable.
For both the aggregate and class-specific allocations described above, (i) provided that the share redemption program has been operating and not suspended for the first month of a given quarter and that all properly submitted redemption requests were satisfied, any unused capacity for that month will carry over to the second month and (ii) provided that the share redemption program has been operating and not suspended for the first two months of a given quarter and that all properly submitted redemption requests were satisfied, any unused capacity for those two months will carry over to the third month. In no event will such carry-over capacity permit the redemption of shares with aggregate value (based on the redemption price per share for the month the redemption is effected) in excess of 5% of the combined NAV of all classes of shares as of the last calendar day of the previous calendar quarter (provided that for these purposes redemptions may be measured on a net basis as described in the paragraph below).

We currently measure the foregoing redemption allocations and limitations based on net redemptions during a month or quarter, as applicable. The term “net redemptions” means, during the applicable period, the excess of our share redemptions (capital outflows) over the proceeds from the sale of our shares (capital inflows). Net redemptions for the class-specific allocations will be based only on the capital inflows and outflows of that class, while net redemptions for the overall program limits would be based on capital inflows and outflows of all classes. Thus, for any given calendar quarter, the maximum amount of redemptions during that quarter will be equal to (i) 5% of the combined NAV of all classes of shares as of the last calendar day of the previous calendar quarter, plus (ii) proceeds from sales of new shares in this offering (including purchases pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan) and the Class E distribution reinvestment plan offering since the beginning of the current calendar quarter. The same would apply for a given month, except that redemptions in a month would be subject to the 2% limit described above (subject to potential carry-over capacity), and netting would be measured on a monthly basis. With respect to future periods, our board of directors may choose whether the allocations and limitations will be applied to “gross redemptions,” i.e., without netting against capital inflows, rather than to net redemptions. If redemptions for a given month or quarter are measured on a gross basis rather than on a net basis, the redemption limitations could limit the amount of shares redeemed in a given month or quarter despite our receiving a net capital inflow for that month or quarter. In order for our board of directors to change the application of the allocations and limitations from net redemptions to gross redemptions or vice versa, we will provide notice to stockholders in a prospectus supplement or special or periodic report filed by us, as well as in a press release or on our website, at least 10 days before the first business day of the quarter for which the new test will apply. The determination to measure redemptions on a gross basis, or vice versa, will only be made for an entire quarter, and not particular months within a quarter.
Although the vast majority of our assets consist of properties that cannot generally be readily liquidated on short notice without impacting our ability to realize full value upon their disposition, we intend to maintain a number of sources of liquidity including (i) cash equivalents (e.g. money market funds), other short-term investments, U.S. government securities, agency securities and liquid real estate-related securities and (ii) one or more borrowing facilities. We may fund redemptions from any available source of funds, including operating cash flows, borrowings, proceeds from this offering and/or sales of our assets.
Should redemption requests, in our judgment, place an undue burden on our liquidity, adversely affect our operations or risk having an adverse impact on the company as a whole, or should we otherwise determine that investing our liquid assets in real properties or other illiquid investments rather than redeeming our shares is in the best interests of the company as a whole, then we may choose to redeem fewer shares than have been requested to be redeemed, or none at all. Further, our board of directors may modify, suspend or terminate our share redemption program if it deems such action to be in our best interest and the best interest of our stockholders. If the transaction price for the applicable month is not made available by the tenth business day prior to the last business day of the month (or is changed after such date), then no redemption requests will be accepted for such month and stockholders who wish to have their shares redeemed the following month must resubmit their redemption requests. The above description of the share redemption program is a summary of certain of the terms of the share redemption program. Please see the full text of the share redemption program, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.2 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for all the terms and conditions.
