Douglas Emmett Acquires 350 Unit Multifamily Property,

Extends Debt Maturities For Ten Years At 3.25% Per Annum

SANTA MONICA, California-June 10, 2019- Douglas Emmett, Inc. (NYSE: DEI), a real estate investment trust (REIT), announced today that it has acquired The Glendon, a residential community in Westwood with 350 apartments and approximately 50,000 square feet of retail, for a contract price of $365 million. Douglas Emmett also announced that it has closed a total of $540 million in ten year, secured, non-recourse loans and sold 4.9 million shares of its common stock at pricing just above $41 per share through its ATM program.

Acquisition of The Glendon. Built in 2008, The Glendon is located at 1060 Glendon Avenue, and sits on 4.25 acres in the heart of pedestrian-friendly Westwood Village in Los Angeles. The property is within easy walking distance of Westwood’s Class A office space (including over 2.1 million square feet owned by Douglas Emmett), UCLA’s world-renowned campus, The Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, and over 300 local shops and restaurants. The Glendon common areas were recently upgraded and the property is midway through a total unit renovation which will be completed by Douglas Emmett. The Glendon’s multifamily units and its ground floor retail are both 97% leased.

With the acquisition of The Glendon, Douglas Emmett has grown its total multifamily portfolio by over 20% in the last two years to over 4,000 units in West Los Angeles and Honolulu, with more units scheduled for delivery from a robust development pipeline. Douglas Emmett currently holds The Glendon directly but may reduce its capital interest by contributing the property to a consolidated joint venture.

Balance Sheet Activities. During the second quarter, Douglas Emmett locked in attractive interest rates for the long term, extended its debt maturities and further reduced its previous 31% leverage level.

• Debt Maturities. Douglas Emmett closed a total of $540 million in ten year secured, non-recourse loans. These loans bear interest at 98 basis points over Libor, which has been effectively fixed at an average of 3.25% per annum until 2027. Douglas Emmett paid off a $145 million loan scheduled to mature in October 2019, a $115 million loan scheduled to mature in December 2025, and the $150 million outstanding balance on its $400 million credit line. As of May 31, 2019, Douglas Emmett had no loan maturities until 2022 and no outstanding floating rate debt.

• Sale of Common Stock. Douglas Emmett recently raised net proceeds of over $200 million by selling 4.9 million shares of its common stock.
