Defined terms used in this Report:

Annualized Rent	Annualized cash base rent (excludes tenant reimbursements, parking and other revenue) before abatements under leases commenced as of the reporting date and expiring after the reporting date. Annualized Rent for our triple net office properties (in Honolulu and one single tenant building in Los Angeles) is calculated by adding expense reimbursements and estimates of normal building expenses paid by tenants to base rent. Annualized Rent does not include lost rent recovered from insurance and rent for building management use. Annualized Rent includes rent for our corporate headquarters in Santa Monica. We report Annualized Rent because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is used by some investors as a means to determine tenant demand and to compare our performance and value with other REITs. We use Annualized Rent to manage and monitor the performance of our office and multifamily portfolios.
Consolidated Portfolio	Includes all of the properties included in our consolidated results, including our consolidated JVs.
Funds From Operations (FFO)	We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by NAREIT by excluding gains (or losses) on sales of investments in real estate, gains (or losses) from changes in control of investments in real estate, real estate depreciation and amortization (other than amortization of right-of-use assets for which we are the lessee and amortization of deferred loan costs), and impairment write-downs of real estate from our net income (including adjusting for the effect of such items attributable to consolidated JVs and unconsolidated Funds, but not for noncontrolling interests included in our Operating Partnership). FFO is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that we report because we believe it is useful to our investors. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 7 of this Report for a discussion of FFO.
Leased Rate	The percentage leased as of the reporting date. Management space is considered leased. Space taken out of service during a repositioning or which is vacant as a result of a fire or other damage is excluded from both the numerator and denominator for calculating percentage leased. We report Leased Rate because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is also used by some investors as a means to determine tenant demand and to compare our performance with other REITs. We use Leased Rate to manage and monitor the performance of our office and multifamily portfolios.
Net Operating Income (NOI)	We calculate NOI as revenue less operating expenses attributable to the properties that we own and operate. NOI is calculated by excluding the following from our net income: general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization expense, other income, other expenses, income from unconsolidated Funds, interest expense, gain from consolidation of JVs, gains (or losses) on sales of investments in real estate and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. NOI is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that we report because we believe it is useful to our investors. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 7 of this Report for a discussion of our Same Property NOI.
Occupancy Rate	We calculate the Occupancy Rate by excluding signed leases not yet commenced from the Leased Rate. Management space is considered occupied. Space taken out of service during a repositioning or which is vacant as a result of a fire or other damage is excluded from both the numerator and denominator for calculating Occupancy Rate. We report Occupancy Rate because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is also used by some investors as a means to determine tenant demand and to compare our performance with other REITs. We use Occupancy Rate to manage and monitor the performance of our office and multifamily portfolios.
Recurring Capital Expenditures	Building improvements required to maintain revenues once a property has been stabilized, and excludes capital expenditures for (i) acquired buildings being stabilized, (ii) newly developed space, (iii) upgrades to improve revenues or operating expenses or significantly change the use of the space, (iv) casualty damage and (v) bringing the property into compliance with governmental or lender requirements. We report Recurring Capital Expenditures because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is used by some investors as a means to determine our cash flow requirements and to compare our performance with other REITs. We use Recurring Capital Expenditures to manage and monitor the performance of our office and multifamily portfolios.

4

Glossary

Rentable Square Feet	Based on the BOMA remeasurement and consists of leased square feet (including square feet with respect to signed leases not commenced as of the reporting date), available square feet, building management use square feet and square feet of the BOMA adjustment on leased space. We report Rentable Square Feet because it is a widely reported measure of the performance and value of equity REITs, and is also used by some investors to compare our performance and value with other REITs. We use Rentable Square Feet to manage and monitor the performance of our office portfolio.
Rental Rate	We present two forms of Rental Rates - Cash Rental Rates and Straight-Line Rental Rates. Cash Rental Rate is calculated by dividing the rent paid by the Rentable Square Feet. Straight-Line Rental Rate is calculated by dividing the average rent over the lease term by the Rentable Square Feet.
Same Properties	Our consolidated properties that have been owned and operated by us in a consistent manner, and reported in our consolidated results during the entire span of both periods being compared. We exclude from our same property subset any properties (i) acquired during the comparative periods; (ii) sold, held for sale, contributed or otherwise removed from our consolidated financial statements during the comparative periods; or (iii) that underwent a major repositioning project or were impacted by development activity that we believed significantly affected the properties' results during the comparative periods.
Short-Term Leases	Represents leases that expired on or before the reporting date or had a term of less than one year, including hold over tenancies, month to month leases and other short term occupancies.
Total Portfolio	Includes our Consolidated Portfolio plus the properties owned by our Fund.

PART I

Item 1. Business

Overview

Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. We are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties located in premier coastal submarkets in Los Angeles and Honolulu. Through our interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, our consolidated JVs, and our unconsolidated Fund, we focus on owning, acquiring, developing and managing a significant market share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods with significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities. Our properties are located in the Beverly Hills, Brentwood, Burbank, Century City, Olympic Corridor, Santa Monica, Sherman Oaks/Encino, Warner Center/Woodland Hills and Westwood submarkets of Los Angeles County, California, and in Honolulu, Hawaii. We intend to increase our market share in our existing submarkets and may enter into other submarkets with similar characteristics where we believe we can gain significant market share. The terms "us," "we" and "our" as used in this Report refer to Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

At December 31, 2020, we owned a Consolidated Portfolio consisting of (i) a 17.8 million square foot office portfolio, (ii) 4,287 multifamily apartment units and (iii) fee interests in two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases. We also manage and own equity interests in our unconsolidated Fund which, at December 31, 2020, owned an additional 0.4 million square feet of office space. We manage our unconsolidated Fund alongside our Consolidated Portfolio, and we therefore present the statistics for our office portfolio on a Total Portfolio basis. For more information, see Item 2 “Properties” of this Report. As of December 31, 2020, our portfolio consisted of the following (including ancillary retail space and excluding the two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases):

	Consolidated Portfolio	Total Portfolio
Office
Wholly-owned properties	53	53
Consolidated JV properties	16	16
Unconsolidated Fund properties	—	2
Total	69	71
Multifamily
Wholly-owned properties	11	11
Consolidated JV properties	1	1
Total	12	12
Total	81	83

Business Strategy

We employ a focused business strategy that we have developed and implemented over the past four decades:

•Concentration of High Quality Office and Multifamily Properties in Premier Submarkets.

First we select submarkets that are supply constrained, with high barriers to entry, key lifestyle amenities, proximity to high-end executive housing and a strong, diverse economic base. Virtually no entitled Class A office space is currently under construction in our targeted submarkets. Our submarkets are dominated by small, affluent tenants, whose rents are very small relative to their revenues and often not the paramount factor in their leasing decisions. At December 31, 2020, our office portfolio median size tenant was approximately 2,600 square feet. Our office tenants operate in diverse industries, including among others legal, financial services, entertainment, real estate, accounting and consulting, health services, retail, technology and insurance, reducing our dependence on any one industry. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, no tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues.

7

•Disciplined Strategy of Acquiring Substantial Market Share In Each Submarket.

Once we select a submarket, we follow a disciplined strategy of gaining substantial market share to provide us with extensive local transactional market information, pricing power in lease and vendor negotiations and an enhanced ability to identify and negotiate investment opportunities. As a result, we average approximately a 38% share of the Class A office space in our submarkets based on the square feet of exposure in our total portfolio to each submarket. See "Office Portfolio Summary" in Item 2 “Properties” of this Report.

•Proactive Asset and Property Management.

Our fully integrated and focused operating platform provides the unsurpassed tenant service demanded in our submarkets, with in-house leasing, proactive asset and property management and internal design and construction services, which we believe provides us with a competitive advantage in managing our property portfolio. Our in-house leasing agents and legal specialists allow us to lease a large property portfolio with a diverse group of smaller tenants, closing an average of approximately three office leases each business day, and our in-house construction company allows us to compress the time required for building out many smaller spaces, resulting in reduced vacancy periods. Our property management group oversees day-to-day property management of both our office and multifamily portfolios, allowing us to benefit from the operational efficiencies permitted by our submarket concentration.

Corporate Structure

Douglas Emmett, Inc. was formed as a Maryland corporation on June 28, 2005 to continue and expand the operations of Douglas Emmett Realty Advisors and its 9 institutional funds. All of our assets are directly or indirectly held by our Operating Partnership, which was formed as a Delaware limited partnership on July 25, 2005. As the sole stockholder of the general partner of our Operating Partnership, we generally have the exclusive power under the partnership agreement to manage and conduct the business of our Operating Partnership, subject to certain limited approval and voting rights of the other limited partners. Our interest in our Operating Partnership entitles us to share in the profits and losses and cash distributions in proportion to our percentage ownership.

JVs and Fund

At December 31, 2020, in addition to fifty-three office properties and eleven residential properties wholly-owned by our Operating Partnership, we manage and own equity interests in:

•three consolidated JVs, through which we and institutional investors own sixteen office properties in our core markets totaling 4.2 million square feet and one residential property with 350 apartments, and in which we own a weighted average of 46% at December 31, 2020 based on square footage. We are entitled to (i) distributions based on invested capital as well as additional distributions based on cash net operating income, (ii) fees for property management and other services and (iii) reimbursement of certain acquisition-related expenses and certain other costs.

•one unconsolidated Fund through which we and institutional investors own two office properties in our core markets totaling 0.4 million square feet and in which we own 34% at December 31, 2020.  We are entitled to (i) priority distributions, (ii) distributions based on invested capital, (iii) a carried interest if the investors’ distributions exceed a hurdle rate, (iv) fees for property management and other services and (v) reimbursement of certain costs.

The financial data in this Report presents our JVs on a consolidated basis and our Funds on an unconsolidated basis in accordance with GAAP. See "Basis of Presentation" in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statement in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding the consolidation of our JVs.

On November 21, 2019, we restructured one of our previously unconsolidated Funds, after which it is treated as a consolidated JV in our financial statements. The results of the consolidated JV are included in our operating results from November 21, 2019 (before November 21, 2019, our share of the Fund's net income was included in our statements of operations in Income from unconsolidated Funds). In December 2020, we sold an 80 thousand square foot office property in Honolulu, which was held by one of our consolidated JVs in which we owned a two-thirds capital interest. The JV was subsequently dissolved before December 31, 2020 (and is therefore not included in the JV statistics disclosed above). The results of the consolidated JV are included in our operating results until it was dissolved in December 2020. See Note 3 and Note 6 to our consolidated financial statement in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding these transactions.

Most of the property data in this Report is presented for our Total Portfolio, which includes the properties owned by our JVs and our Funds, as we believe this presentation assists in understanding our business.

Taxation

We believe that we qualify, and we intend to continue to qualify, for taxation as a REIT under the Code, although we cannot provide assurance that this has happened or will happen. See Item 1A "Risk Factors" of this Report for the risks we face regarding taxation as a REIT. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the applicable Code provisions and related rules, and administrative and judicial interpretations. If we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we will generally not be required to pay federal corporate income taxes on the portion of our net income that is currently distributed to stockholders. This treatment substantially eliminates the “double taxation” (i.e., at the corporate and stockholder levels) that generally results from investment in a corporation. However, we will be required to pay federal income tax under certain circumstances.

The Code defines a REIT as a corporation, trust or association (i) which is managed by one or more trustees or directors; (ii) the beneficial ownership of which is evidenced by transferable shares or certificates of beneficial interest; (iii) which would be taxable but for Sections 856 through 860 of the Code as a domestic corporation; (iv) which is neither a financial institution nor an insurance company subject to certain provisions of the Code; (v) the beneficial ownership of which is held by 100 or more persons; (vi) of which, during the last half of each taxable year, not more than 50% in value of the outstanding stock is owned, actually or constructively, by five or fewer individuals; and (vii) which meets certain other tests, described below, regarding the amount of its distributions and the nature of its income and assets. The Code requires that conditions (i) to (iv) be met during the entire taxable year and that condition (v) be met during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months, or during a proportionate part of a taxable year of less than 12 months.

There are two gross income requirements we must satisfy:

i.at least 75% of our gross income (excluding gross income from “prohibited transactions” as defined below and qualifying hedges) for each taxable year must be derived directly or indirectly from investments relating to real property or mortgages on real property or from certain types of temporary investment income, and

ii.at least 95% of our gross income (excluding gross income from “prohibited transactions” and qualifying hedges) for each taxable year must be derived from income that qualifies under the 75% test or from other dividends, interest or gain from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities. In general, a “prohibited transaction” is a sale or other disposition of property (other than foreclosure property) held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business.

We must satisfy five asset tests at the close of each quarter of our taxable year:

i.at least 75% of the value of our total assets must be represented by real estate assets including shares of stock of other REITs, debt instruments of publicly offered REITs, certain other stock or debt instruments purchased with the proceeds of a stock offering or long-term public debt offering by us (but only for the one-year period after such offering), cash, cash items and government securities,

ii.not more than 25% of our total assets may be represented by securities other than those in the 75% asset class,

iii.of the assets included in the 25% asset class, the value of any one issuer’s securities owned by us may not exceed 5% of the value of our total assets and we may not own more than 10% of the vote or value of the securities of any one issuer, in each case other than securities included under the 75% asset test above and interests in TRS or QRS, each as defined below, and in the case of the 10% value test, subject to certain other exceptions,

iv.not more than 20% of the value of our total assets may be represented by securities of one or more TRS, and

v.not more than 25% of the value of our total assets may be represented by nonqualified publicly offered REIT debt instruments.

In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute dividends (other than capital gains dividends) to our stockholders equal to at least (A) the sum of (i) 90% of our “REIT taxable income” (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and our net capital gain) and (ii) 90% of the net income, if any (after tax), from foreclosure property, less (B) the sum of certain items of non-cash income. The distributions must be paid in the taxable year to which they relate, or in the following taxable year if declared before we timely file our tax return for such year, if paid on or before the first regular dividend payment date after such declaration and if we so elect and specify the dollar amount in our tax return. To the extent that we do not distribute all of our net long-term capital gains or distribute at least 90%, but less than 100%, of our REIT taxable income, we will be required to pay tax thereon at the regular corporate tax rate. Furthermore, if we fail to distribute during each calendar year the sum of at least (i) 85% of our ordinary income for such year, (ii) 95% of our capital gains income for such year, and (iii) any undistributed taxable income from prior periods, we would be required to pay a 4% excise tax on the excess of such required distributions over the amounts actually distributed.

9

We own interests in various partnerships and limited liability companies. In the case of a REIT that is a partner in a partnership or a member of a limited liability company that is treated as a partnership under the Code, Treasury Regulations provide that for purposes of the REIT income and asset tests, the REIT will be deemed to own its proportionate share of the assets of the partnership or limited liability company (determined in accordance with its capital interest in the entity), subject to special rules related to the 10% asset test, and will be deemed to be entitled to the income of the partnership or limited liability company attributable to such share.

We own an interest in a subsidiary that is intended to be treated as a QRS. The Code provides that a QRS will be ignored for federal income tax purposes and all assets, liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of the QRS will be treated as our assets, liabilities and items of income. We hold certain of our properties through subsidiaries that have elected to be taxed as REITs. We also wholly own an interest in a corporation which has elected to be treated as a TRS. A REIT may own more than 10% of the voting stock and value of the securities of a corporation that jointly elects with the REIT to be a TRS, provided certain requirements are met. A TRS generally may engage in any business, including the provision of customary or non-customary services to tenants of its parent REIT and of others, except a TRS may not manage or operate a hotel or healthcare facility. A TRS is treated as a regular corporation and is subject to federal income tax and applicable state income and franchise taxes at regular corporate rates. In addition, a 100% tax may be imposed on a REIT if its rental, service or other agreements with its TRS, or the TRS agreements with the REIT’s tenants, are not on arm’s-length terms.

We may be required to pay state or local tax in various state or local jurisdictions, including those in which we own properties or otherwise transact business or reside. The state and local tax treatment of us and our stockholders may not conform to the federal income tax consequences discussed above. We may also be subject to certain taxes applicable to REITs, including taxes in lieu of disqualification as a REIT, on undistributed income, and on income from prohibited transactions.

In addition, if we acquire any asset from a corporation that is or has been a C corporation in a transaction in which our tax basis in the asset is less than the fair market value of the asset, in each case determined as of the date on which we acquired the asset, and we subsequently recognize gain on the disposition of the asset during the five-year period beginning on the date on which we acquired the asset, then we generally will be required to pay tax at the highest regular corporate tax rate on this gain to the extent of the excess of (i) the fair market value of the asset over (ii) our adjusted tax basis in the asset, in each case determined as of the date on which we acquired the asset.

Insurance

We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage, business interruption and rental loss insurance covering all of the properties in our portfolio under blanket insurance policies. We believe the policy specifications and insured limits are appropriate and adequate given the relative risk of loss and the cost of the coverage and industry practice. See Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Report for the risks we face regarding insurance.

Competition

We compete with a number of developers, owners and operators of office and multifamily real estate, many of which own properties similar to ours in the same markets in which our properties are located. See Item 2 of this Report for more information about our properties. See Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Report for the risks we face regarding competition.

Regulation

Our properties are subject to various covenants, laws, ordinances and regulations, including regulations relating to common areas, fire and safety requirements, various environmental laws, the ADA and rent control laws.

The governmental authorities in the jurisdictions in which we primarily operate, Los Angeles, Beverly Hills and Santa Monica, have passed COVID-19 pandemic relief ordinances prohibiting evictions and allowing rent deferral for residential, retail, and office tenants, regardless of financial distress. The ordinances cover our residential, retail and office tenants (with some carve outs for large tenants) and generally prohibit landlords from evicting tenants and imposing late fees or interest, and allow tenants to pay back the deferred rent over a certain period.

See Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Report for the risks we face regarding laws and regulations.

Sustainability

In operating our buildings and running our business, we actively work to promote our operations in a sustainable and responsible manner.  Our sustainability initiatives include items such as lighting, retrofitting, energy management systems, variable frequency drives in our motors, energy efficiency, recycling and water conservation.  As a result of our efforts, 78% of our eligible office space in 2019 was ENERGY STAR certified by the EPA as having energy efficiency in the top 25% of buildings nationwide (our 2020 Energy Star scores are being reviewed to properly account for any impact from the COVID-19 pandemic).

Segments

We operate two business segments: the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate, and the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate. The services for our office segment include primarily rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include primarily rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. See Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our segments.

Human Capital

Central to our long-term strategy is attracting, developing and retaining the best talent with the right skills to drive our success. Our ability to maintain our competitive position is largely dependent upon the skill and effort of our executive officers and key personnel, who have significant real estate industry experience, strong industry reputations and networks, and assist us in identifying acquisition, disposition, development and borrowing opportunities, negotiating with tenants and sellers of properties, and managing our development projects and the operations of our properties. As of December 31, 2020, we employed approximately 700 people.

We promote an atmosphere of openness, respect and trust and bring a sense of teamwork and inclusion to all we do. We recognize that having a range of experiences, backgrounds and perspectives allows us to find new ways of doing things. We make sure to walk the talk in fostering a workplace culture that encourages and empowers all our employees to have a voice and fulfill their potential.

We value and advance the diversity and inclusion of the people with whom we work. We are committed to equal opportunity in workplaces that are free from discrimination or harassment on the basis of race, sex, color, ancestry, citizenship, marital status, family status, national or social origin, ethnicity, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identification or expression, political opinion or any other status protected by applicable law. Recruitment, hiring, placement, development, training, compensation and advancement may not be based on any of these factors, but should instead be based on factors such as qualifications, performance, skills and experience.

We know that the first step in hiring and retaining the best talent is to create safe and inspiring workplaces where people feel valued. We offer competitive compensation and benefits to all regular full-time employees, including but not limited to paid holiday, vacation, and sick time, retirement savings plans and medical, dental, and vision coverage. We also offer a very generous equity compensation program that empowers our employees to act and feel like owners, not just employees. In 2020, we provided equity compensation to approximately two-thirds, of our approximately 700 employees.

The health and safety of our employees, tenants, and vendors is of the utmost importance to us. We adhere to leading health and safety standards across our portfolio, and each year, we require all our employees to complete safety training and also provide them seminars on various health topics free of charge. The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on our human capital management during 2020. We are deemed an essential business and we moved quickly to institute safety protocols and procedures to keep our properties open and to protect our tenants and employees who continued to work on site and at our headquarters.

Principal Executive Offices

Our principal executive offices are located in the building we own at 1299 Ocean Avenue, Suite 1000, Santa Monica, California 90401 (telephone 310-255-7700).

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following risk factors are what we believe to be the most significant risk factors that could adversely affect our business and operations, including, without limitation, our financial condition, REIT status, results of operations and cash flows, our ability to service our debt and pay dividends to our stockholders, our ability to capitalize on business opportunities as they arise, our ability to raise capital, and the market price of our common stock.

This is not an exhaustive list, and additional risk factors could adversely affect our business and financial performance. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment and new risk factors emerge from time to time. It is therefore not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

This discussion of risk factors includes many forward-looking statements. For cautions about relying on forward-looking statements see “Forward Looking Statements” at the beginning of this Report.

Our risk factors are grouped into the following categories:

•Risks Related to Our Properties and Our Business;

•Risks Related to Our Organization and Structure;

•Risks Related to Taxes and Our Status as a REIT;

•General Risks.

Risks Related to Our Properties and Our Business

The COVID-19 global pandemic could adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations, cash flows, our ability to service our debt, our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders, our REIT status, our ability to capitalize on business opportunities as they arise, our ability to raise capital, and/or the market price of our common stock.

The COVID-19 global pandemic has led to severe disruption to general economic activities as governments and businesses take actions to mitigate the public health crisis. The extent to which the COVID-19 global pandemic ultimately impacts our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, the actions taken to contain the virus, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions resume. Even if the COVID-19 global pandemic subsides, we may continue to experience significant impacts to our business as a result of its global economic impact, including any resulting economic recession.

Although the impacts of the pandemic cannot be predicted at this time, some potential impacts from the pandemic could include:

•Government actions that reduce or otherwise hinder our ability to collect rent promptly or at all, adversely affect tenant demand, increase our costs or otherwise reduce our collections;

•Supply chain, governmental or other disruptions that adversely affect construction or our operations and/or those of our tenants;

12

•Economic pressure on our tenants, which could lead to lower collections or defaults;

•Reduced or different tenant demand, leading to lower occupancy and/or rental rates in our buildings;

•Increases in expenses and/or capital investments or decreases in tenant demand as a result of safety concerns;

•Increased risks of IT disruptions and/or cyber attacks as a result of our employees or tenants working remotely;

•Disruption of our operations as a result of the illness or social distancing of our employees or tenants;

•Changes in the financial markets, the value of our properties and/or our cash flows which adversely affect our stock price and/or our tenants' access to needed debt or equity capital on reasonable or any terms; and/or

•Increases in the cost or availability, or changes to the terms, of insurance.

All of our properties are located in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii, and we are therefore exposed to greater risk than if we owned a more geographically diverse portfolio. Our properties in Los Angeles County are concentrated in certain submarkets, exposing us to risks associated with those specific areas.

Because of the geographic concentration of our properties, we are susceptible to adverse economic and regulatory developments, as well as natural disasters, in the markets and submarkets where we operate, including, for example, economic slowdowns, industry slowdowns, business downsizing, business relocations, increases in real estate and other taxes, changes in regulation, earthquakes, floods, droughts and wildfires. California is also regarded as being more litigious, regulated and taxed than many other states.

Our operating performance is subject to risks associated with the real estate industry.

Real estate investments are subject to various risks, fluctuations and cycles in value and demand, many of which are beyond our control. These events include, but are not limited to:

•adverse changes in international, national or local economic conditions;

•inability to rent space on favorable terms, including possible market pressures to offer tenants rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options;

•adverse changes in financial conditions of actual or potential investors, buyers, sellers or tenants;

•inability to collect rent from tenants;

•competition from other real estate investors, including other real estate operating companies, publicly-traded REITs and institutional investment funds;

•reduced tenant demand for office space and residential units from matters such as (i) trends in space utilization, (ii) changes in the relative popularity of our properties, (iii) the type of space we provide or (iv) purchasing versus leasing;

•reduced demand for parking space due to the impact of technology such as self driving cars, and the increasing popularity of car ride sharing services;

•increases in the supply of office space and residential units;

•fluctuations in interest rates and the availability of credit, which could adversely affect our ability to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all;

•increases in expenses (or our reduced ability to recover expenses from our tenants), including insurance costs, labor costs (such as the unionization of our employees or the employees of any parties with whom we contract for services to our buildings), energy prices, real estate assessments and other taxes, as well as costs of compliance with laws, regulations and governmental policies;

•utility disruptions;

•the effects of rent controls, stabilization laws and other laws or covenants regulating rental rates;

•changes in, and changes in enforcement of, laws, regulations and governmental policies, including, without limitation, health, safety, environmental, zoning and tax laws, governmental fiscal policies and the ADA;

•legislative uncertainty related to federal and state spending and tax policy;

•difficulty in operating properties effectively;

13

•acquiring undesirable properties; and

•inability to dispose of properties at appropriate times or at favorable prices.

We have a substantial amount of debt, which exposes us to interest rate fluctuation risk and the risk of not being able to refinance our debt, which in turn could expose us to the risk of default under our debt obligations.

We have a substantial amount of debt and we may incur significant additional debt for various purposes, including, without limitation, to fund future property acquisitions and development activities, reposition properties and to fund our operations. See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more detail regarding our consolidated debt. See "Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements" in Item 7 of this Report for more detail regarding our unconsolidated debt.

Our substantial indebtedness, and the limitations and other constraints imposed on us by our debt agreements, especially during economic downturns when credit is harder to obtain, could adversely affect us, including the following:

•our cash flows may be insufficient to meet our required principal and interest payments;

•servicing our borrowings may leave us with insufficient cash to operate our properties or to pay the distributions necessary to maintain our REIT qualification;

•we may be unable to borrow additional funds as needed or on favorable terms, which could, among other things, adversely affect our ability to capitalize upon acquisition opportunities;

•we may be unable to refinance our indebtedness at maturity or the refinancing terms may be less favorable than the terms of our existing indebtedness;

•we may be forced to dispose of one or more of our properties, possibly on disadvantageous terms;

•we may violate any restrictive covenants in our loan documents, which could entitle the lenders to accelerate our debt obligations;

•we may be unable to hedge floating rate debt, counterparties may fail to honor their obligations under our hedge agreements, the hedge agreements may not effectively hedge the interest rate fluctuation risk, and, upon the expiration of any hedge agreements we do have, we will be exposed to the then-existing market rates of interest and future interest rate volatility with respect to debt that is currently hedged; we could also be declared in default on our hedge agreements if we default on the underlying debt that we are hedging;

•we may default on our obligations and the lenders or mortgagees may foreclose on our properties that secure their loans and receive an assignment of rents and leases;

•our default under any of our indebtedness with cross default provisions could result in a default on other indebtedness;

•any foreclosure on our properties could also create taxable income without accompanying cash proceeds, which could adversely affect our ability to meet the REIT distribution requirements imposed by the Code.

•our floating rate debt and related hedges are indexed to USD-LIBOR, any regulatory changes which impact the USD-LIBOR benchmark, such as the potential transition to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (see Item 7A - "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" below), could impact our borrowing costs or the effectiveness of our hedges.

The rents we receive from new leases may be less than our asking rents, and we may experience rent roll-down from time to time.

As a result of various factors, such as competitive pricing pressure in our submarkets, adverse conditions in the Los Angeles County or Honolulu real estate market, general economic downturns, or the desirability of our properties compared to other properties in our submarkets, the rents we receive on new leases could be less than our in-place rents.

In order to successfully compete against other properties, we must spend money to maintain, repair, and renovate our properties, which reduces our cash flows.

If our properties are not as attractive to current and prospective tenants in terms of rent, services, condition, or location as properties owned by our competitors, we could lose tenants or suffer lower rental rates. As a result, we may from time to time be required to incur significant capital expenditures to maintain the competitiveness of our properties. There can be no assurances that any such expenditures would result in higher occupancy or rental rates, or deter existing tenants from relocating to properties owned by our competitors.

14

We face intense competition, which could adversely impact the occupancy and rental rates of our properties.

We compete with a number of developers, owners and operators of office and multifamily real estate, many of which own properties similar to ours in the same markets in which our properties are located. If our competitors offer space at rental rates below current market rates, or below the rental rates that we currently charge our tenants, or if they offer tenants significant rent or other concessions, we may lose existing or potential tenants and may not be able to replace them, and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below those we currently charge or offer more substantial rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options in order to retain tenants when our tenants’ leases expire.

Potential losses, including from adverse weather conditions, natural disasters and title claims, may not be covered by insurance.

Our business operations in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii are susceptible to, and could be significantly affected by, adverse weather conditions and natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcanoes, drought, wind, floods, landslides and fires. The likelihood of such disasters may be increased as a result of climate changes. Adverse weather conditions and natural disasters could cause significant damage to our properties or to the economies of the regions in which they are located, the risk of which is enhanced by the concentration of our properties’ locations. Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover business interruption or losses resulting from adverse weather or natural disasters. In addition, our insurance policies include substantial self-insurance portions and significant deductibles and co-payments for such events, and we are subject to the availability of insurance in the US and the pricing thereof. As a result, we may incur significant costs in the event of adverse weather conditions and natural disasters.

Most of our properties are located in Southern California, an area subject to an increased risk of earthquakes. While we presently carry earthquake insurance on our properties, the amount of our earthquake insurance coverage may not be sufficient to fully cover losses from earthquakes. We may reduce or discontinue earthquake or any other insurance coverage on some or all of our properties in the future if the cost of premiums for any of these policies in our judgment exceeds the value of the coverage discounted for the risk of loss.

We do not carry insurance for certain losses, such as losses caused by certain environmental conditions, asbestos, riots or war. In addition, our title insurance policies generally only insure the value of a property at the time of purchase, and we have not and do not intend to increase our title insurance coverage as the market value of our portfolio increases. As a result, we may not have sufficient coverage against all losses that we may experience, including from adverse title claims.

If we experience a loss that is uninsured or which exceeds policy limits, we could incur significant costs and lose the capital invested in the damaged properties as well as the anticipated future cash flows from those properties. If the damaged properties are encumbered, we may continue to be liable for the indebtedness, even if these properties were irreparably damaged.

If any of our properties were destroyed or damaged, then we might not be permitted to rebuild many of those properties to their existing height or size at their existing location under current zoning and land use regulations. In the event that we experience a substantial or comprehensive loss of one of our properties, we may not be able to rebuild such property to its existing specifications and otherwise may have to upgrade such property to meet current code requirements.

New regulations in the submarkets in which we operate could require us to make safety improvements to our buildings, for example requiring us to retrofit our buildings to better withstand earthquakes, and we could incur significant costs complying with those regulations.

15

We may be unable to renew leases or lease vacant space.

We may be unable to renew our tenants' leases, in which case we must find new tenants. To attract new tenants or retain existing tenants, particularly in periods of recession, we may have to accept rental rates below our existing rental rates or offer substantial rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options. Accordingly, portions of our office and multifamily properties may remain vacant for extended periods of time. In addition, some existing leases currently provide tenants with options to renew the terms of their leases at rates that are below the current market rates or to terminate their leases prior to the expiration date thereof. We actively pursue opportunities for what we believe to be well-located and high quality buildings that may be in a transitional phase due to current or impending vacancies. We cannot assure that any such vacancies will be filled following a property acquisition, or that new tenant leases will be executed at or above market rates. As of December 31, 2020, 11.4% of the square footage in our total office portfolio was available for lease and 13.3% was scheduled to expire in 2021. As of December 31, 2020, 1.8% of the units in our multifamily portfolio were available for lease, and substantially all of the leases in our multifamily portfolio must be renewed within the next year. For more information see Item 2 “Properties” of this Report.

Our business strategy for our office portfolio focuses on leasing to smaller-sized tenants which may present greater credit risks.

Our business strategy for our office portfolio focuses on leasing to smaller-sized tenants, which may present greater credit risks because they are more susceptible to economic downturns than larger tenants, and may be more likely to cancel or not renew their leases.

Real estate investments are generally illiquid.

Our real estate investments are relatively difficult to sell quickly. Return of capital and realization of gains, if any, from an investment will generally occur upon disposition or refinancing of the underlying property. We may not be able to realize our investment objectives by sale or be able to refinance at attractive prices within any given period of time. We may also not be able to complete any exit strategy. Any number of factors could increase these risks, such as (i) weak market conditions, (ii) the lack of an established market for a property, (iii) changes in the financial condition or prospects of prospective buyers, (iv) changes in local, national or international economic conditions, and (v) changes in laws, regulations or fiscal policies. Furthermore, certain properties may be adversely affected by contractual rights, such as rights of first offer or ground leases.

We may incur significant costs complying with laws, regulations and covenants that are applicable to our properties.

The properties in our portfolio are subject to various covenants, federal, state and local laws, ordinances, regulatory requirements, including permitting and licensing requirements, various environmental laws, the ADA and rent control laws. Such laws and regulations, including municipal or local ordinances, zoning restrictions and restrictive covenants imposed by community developers may restrict our use of our properties and may require us to obtain approval from local officials or community standards organizations at any time with respect to our properties, including prior to acquiring a property or when undertaking renovations of any of our existing properties. Among other things, these restrictions may relate to fire and safety, seismic, asbestos-cleanup or hazardous material abatement requirements. There can be no assurance that existing laws and regulations will not adversely affect us or the timing or cost of any future acquisitions, developments or renovations, or that additional regulations that increase such delays or result in additional costs will not be adopted. Under the ADA, our properties must meet federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons to the extent that such properties are “public accommodations”. The costs of our on-going efforts to comply with these laws and regulations are substantial. Moreover, as we have not conducted a comprehensive audit or investigation of all of our properties to determine our compliance with applicable laws and regulations, we may be liable for investigation and remediation costs, penalties, and/or damages, which could be substantial and could adversely affect our ability to sell or rent our property or to borrow using such property as collateral.

16

Because we own real property, we are subject to extensive environmental regulations, which create uncertainty regarding future environmental expenditures and liabilities.  

Environmental laws regulate, and impose liability for, releases of hazardous or toxic substances into the environment. Under various provisions of these laws, an owner or operator of real estate may be liable for costs related to soil or groundwater contamination on, in, or migrating to or from its property. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances may be liable for the costs of cleaning up contamination at the disposal site. Such laws often impose liability regardless of whether the person knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of the hazardous or toxic substances that caused the contamination. The presence of, or contamination resulting from, any of these substances, or the failure to properly remediate them, may adversely affect our ability to sell or rent our property or to borrow using the property as collateral. Persons exposed to hazardous or toxic substances may sue for personal injury damages, for example, some laws impose liability for release of or exposure to asbestos-containing materials, a substance known to be present in a number of our buildings. In other cases, some of our properties have been (or may have been) impacted by contamination from past operations or from off-site sources. As a result, in connection with our current or former ownership, operation, management and development of real properties, we may be potentially liable for investigation and cleanup costs, penalties, and damages under environmental laws.

Although most of our properties have been subjected to preliminary environmental assessments, known as Phase I assessments, by independent environmental consultants that identify certain liabilities, Phase I assessments are limited in scope, and may not include or identify all potential environmental liabilities or risks associated with the property. Unless required by applicable laws or regulations, we may not further investigate, remedy or ameliorate the liabilities disclosed in the Phase I assessments. We cannot assure that these or other environmental studies identified all potential environmental liabilities, or that we will not incur material environmental liabilities in the future. If we do incur material environmental liabilities in the future, we may face significant remediation costs and may find it difficult to sell any affected properties. See Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more detail regarding our buildings that contain asbestos.

Rent control or rent stabilization legislation and other regulatory restrictions may limit our ability to increase rents and pass through new or increased operating costs to our tenants.

We presently expect to continue operating and acquiring properties in areas that have adopted laws and regulations imposing restrictions on the timing or amount of rent increases or have imposed regulations relating to low- and moderate-income housing.

California and various municipalities within Southern California, including the cities of Los Angeles and Santa Monica where our properties are located, have enacted rent control legislation. All of our multifamily properties in Los Angeles County are affected by these laws and regulations. Under current California law we are able to increase rents to market rates once a tenant vacates a rent-controlled unit; however, increases in rental rates for renewing tenants are limited by California, Los Angeles and Santa Monica rent control regulations.

Hawaii does not have state mandated rent control, however portions of the Honolulu multifamily market are subject to low- and moderate-income housing regulations. We have agreed to rent specified percentages of the units at some of our Honolulu multifamily properties to persons with income below specified levels in exchange for certain tax benefits.

These laws and regulations can (i) limit our ability to charge market rents, increase rents, evict tenants or recover increases in our operating expenses, (ii) negatively impact our ability to attract higher-paying tenants, (iii) require us to incur costs for reporting and compliance, and (iv) make it more difficult for us to dispose of properties in certain circumstances. Any failure to comply with these regulations could result in fines, penalties and/or the loss of certain tax benefits and the forfeiture of rents.

We may be unable to complete acquisitions that would grow our business, or successfully integrate and operate acquired properties.  

Our planned growth strategy includes the disciplined acquisition of properties as opportunities arise. Our ability to acquire properties on favorable terms and to successfully integrate and operate them is subject to significant risks, including the following:

•we may be unable to acquire desired properties because of competition from other real estate investors, including other real estate operating companies, publicly-traded REITs and investment funds;

•competition from other potential acquirers may significantly increase the purchase price of a desired property;

•we may acquire properties that are not accretive to our results upon acquisition or we may not successfully manage and

17

lease them up to meet our expectations;

•we may be unable to generate sufficient cash from operations, or obtain the necessary debt or equity financing to consummate an acquisition or, if obtained, the financing may not be on favorable terms;

•cash flows from the acquired properties may be insufficient to service the related debt financing;

•we may need to spend more than we budgeted to make necessary improvements or renovations to acquired properties;

•we may spend significant time and money on potential acquisitions that we do not close;

•the process of acquiring or pursuing the acquisition of a property may divert the attention of our senior management team from our existing business operations;

•we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations;

•occupancy and rental rates of acquired properties may be less than expected; and

•we may acquire properties without recourse, or with limited recourse, for liabilities, whether known or unknown, such as clean-up of environmental contamination, claims by tenants, vendors or other persons against the former owners of the properties and claims for indemnification by general partners, directors, officers and others indemnified by the former owners of the properties.

We may be unable to successfully expand our operations into new markets and submarkets.

If the opportunity arises, we may explore acquisitions of properties in new markets. The risks applicable to our ability to acquire, integrate and operate properties in our current markets are also applicable to our ability to acquire, integrate and operate properties in new markets. In addition to these risks, we will not possess the same level of familiarity with the dynamics and market conditions of any new markets that we may enter, which could adversely affect our ability to expand into those markets. We may be unable to build a significant market share or achieve a desired return on our investments in new markets.

We are exposed to risks associated with property development.

We engage in development and redevelopment activities with respect to certain of our properties. To the extent that we do so, we are subject to certain risks, including the following:

•We may not complete a development or redevelopment project on schedule or within budgeted amounts (as a result of risks beyond our control, such as weather, labor conditions, material shortages and price increases);

•We may be unable to lease the developed or redeveloped properties at budgeted rental rates or lease up the property within budgeted time frames;

•We may devote time and expend funds on development or redevelopment of properties that we may not complete;

•We may encounter delays or refusals in obtaining all necessary zoning, land use, and other required entitlements, and building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations;

•We may encounter delays, refusals and unforeseen cost increases resulting from third-party litigation or objections;

•We may fail to obtain the financial results expected from properties we develop or redevelop; and

•We have developed and redeveloped properties in the past, however only in a limited manner in recent years, which could adversely affect our ability to develop or redevelop properties or to achieve our expected returns.

We are exposed to certain risks when we enter into JVs or issue securities of our subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership.

We have and may in the future develop or acquire properties with, or raise capital from, third parties through partnerships, JVs or other entities, or through acquiring or disposing of non-controlling interests in, or sharing responsibility for managing the affairs of, a property, partnership, JV or other entity. This may subject us to risks that may not be present with other methods of ownership, including for example the following:

•We may not be able to exercise sole decision-making authority regarding the properties, partnership, JV or other entity, which would allow for impasses on decisions that could restrict our ability to sell or transfer our interests in such entity or such entity’s ability to transfer or sell its assets;

18

•Partners or co-venturers may default on their obligations including those related to capital contributions, debt financing or interest rate swaps, which could delay acquisition, construction or development of a property or increase our financial commitment to the partnership or JV;

•Conflicts of interests with our partners or co-venturers as result of matters such as different needs for liquidity, assessments of the market or tax objectives; ownership of competing interests in other properties; and other business interests, policies or objectives that are competitive or inconsistent with ours;

•If any such jointly owned or managed entity takes or expects to take actions that could jeopardize our status as a REIT or require us to pay tax, we may suffer significantly, including having to dispose of our interest in such entity (if that is possible) or even losing our status as a REIT;

•Our assumptions regarding the tax impact of any structure or transaction could prove to be incorrect, and we could be exposed to significant taxable income, property tax reassessments or other liabilities, including any liability to third parties that we may assume as part of such transaction or otherwise;

•Disputes between us and partners or co-venturers may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses, affect our ability to develop or operate a property and/or prevent our officers and/or directors from focusing their time and effort on our business;

•We may, in certain circumstances, be liable for the actions of our third-party partners or co-venturers; and

•We may not be able to raise capital as needed from institutional investors or sovereign wealth funds, or on terms that are favorable.

If we default on the ground lease to which one of our properties is subject, our business could be adversely affected.

Some of our properties may be subject to a ground lease. If we default under the terms of such a lease, we may be liable for damages and could lose our ownership interest in the property.

We may not have sufficient cash available for distribution to stockholders at expected levels in the future.

Our distributions could exceed our cash generated from operations. If necessary, we may fund the difference from our existing cash balances or additional borrowings. If our available cash were to decline significantly below our taxable income, we could lose our REIT status unless we could borrow to make such distributions or make any required distributions in common stock.

We face risks associated with contractual counterparties being designated “Prohibited Persons” by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.

The OFAC of the US Department of the Treasury maintains a list of persons designated as terrorists or who are otherwise blocked or banned (“Prohibited Persons”). The OFAC regulations and other laws prohibit conducting business or engaging in transactions with Prohibited Persons. Some of our agreements require us and the other party to comply with the OFAC requirements. If a party with whom we contract is placed on the OFAC list we may be required by the OFAC regulations to terminate the agreement, which could result in a losses or a damage claim by the other party that the termination was wrongful.

Terrorism and war could harm our business and operating results.

The possibility of future terrorist attacks or war could have a negative impact on our operations, even if they are not directed at our properties and even if they never actually occur. Terrorist attacks can also substantially affect the availability and price of insurance coverage for certain types of damages or occurrences, and our insurance policies for terrorism include large deductibles and co-payments. The lack of sufficient insurance for these types of acts could expose us to significant losses.

19

Risks Related to Our Organization and Structure

Tax consequences to holders of OP Units upon a sale or refinancing of our properties may cause the interests of our executive officers to differ from the interests of our stockholders.  

Some of our properties were contributed to us in exchange for units of our Operating Partnership. As a result of the unrealized built-in gain attributable to such properties at the time of their contribution, some holders of OP Units, including our executive officers, may suffer different and more adverse tax consequences than holders of our common stock upon the sale or refinancing of the properties owned by our Operating Partnership, including disproportionately greater allocations of items of taxable income and gain upon a realization event. As a result, those holders may have different objectives regarding the appropriate pricing, timing and other material terms of any sale or refinancing of certain properties, or whether to sell or refinance such properties at all.

Our executive officers have significant influence over our affairs.  

At December 31, 2020, our executive officers owned 4% of our outstanding common stock, but they would own 15% if they converted all of their OP Units into common stock. As a result, our executive officers, to the extent that they vote their shares in a similar manner, will have significant influence over our affairs and could exercise such influence in a manner that is not in the best interests of our other stockholders, including by attempting to delay, defer or prevent a change of control transaction that might otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders.

Under their employment agreements, certain of our executive officers will receive severance if they are terminated without cause or resign for good reason.

We have employment agreements with Jordan L. Kaplan, Kenneth M. Panzer and Kevin A. Crummy, which provide each executive with severance if they are terminated without cause or resign for good reason (including following a change of control), based on two or three times (depending on the officer) his annual total of salary, bonus and incentive compensation such as LTIP Units, options or outperformance grants. In addition, these executive officers would not be restricted from competing with us after their departure.

The loss of any of our executive officers or key senior personnel could significantly harm our business.

Our ability to maintain our competitive position is largely dependent upon the skill and effort of our executive officers and key personnel, who have significant real estate industry experience, strong industry reputations and networks, and assist us in identifying acquisition, disposition, development and borrowing opportunities, negotiating with tenants and sellers of properties, and managing our development projects and the operations of our properties. If we lose the services of any of our executive officers or key senior personnel our business could be adversely affected.

Compensation awards to our management may not be tied to or correspond with improved financial results or the market price of our common stock.

The compensation committee of our board of directors is responsible for overseeing our compensation and incentive compensation plans. Our compensation committee has significant discretion in structuring compensation packages and may make compensation decisions based on any number of factors. Compensation awards may not be tied to or correspond with improved financial results or the market price of our common stock. See Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our stock-based compensation.

Our board of directors may change significant corporate policies without stockholder approval.

Our investment, financing, borrowing, dividend, operating and other policies are determined by our board of directors. These policies may be amended or revised at any time and from time to time at the discretion of our board of directors without a vote of our stockholders. Our board of directors may change our policies with respect to conflicts of interest provided that such changes are consistent with applicable legal requirements.

20

Our growth depends on external sources of capital which are outside of our control.

In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required under the Code to distribute annually at least 90% of our “REIT taxable income", determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding any net capital gain. To the extent that we do not distribute all of our net long-term capital gains or at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, we will be required to pay tax thereon at the regular corporate tax rate. Because of these distribution requirements, we may not be able to fund future capital needs from our operating cash flows, including acquisitions, development and debt refinancing. Consequently, we expect to rely on third-party sources to fund some of our capital needs and we may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all. Any additional borrowings will increase our leverage, and any additional equity that we issue will dilute our common stock. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends on many factors, some of which include:

•general market conditions;

•the market’s perception of our growth potential;

•our current debt levels;

•our current and expected future earnings;

•our cash flows and cash dividends; and

•the market price per share of our common stock.

We face risks associated with short-term liquid investments. 

From time to time, we have significant cash balances that we invest in a variety of short-term money market fund investments that are intended to preserve principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current income. These investments are not insured against loss of principal and there is no guarantee that our investments in these funds will be redeemable at par value. If we cannot liquidate our investments or redeem them at par we could incur losses and experience liquidity issues.

Our charter, the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership, and Maryland law contain provisions that may delay or prevent a change of control transaction.

(i) Our charter contains a five percent ownership limit.

Our charter, subject to certain exceptions, contains restrictions on ownership that limit, and authorizes our directors to take such actions as are necessary and desirable to limit, any person to actual or constructive ownership of not more than five percent of the value or number, whichever is more restrictive, of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Our board of directors, in its sole discretion, may exempt a proposed transferee from the ownership limit. The ownership limit contained in our charter may delay or prevent a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders.

(ii) Our board of directors may create and issue a class or series of preferred stock without stockholder approval.

Our board of directors is empowered under our charter to amend our charter to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of our common stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we have authority to issue, to designate and issue from time to time one or more classes or series of preferred stock and to classify or reclassify any unissued shares of our common stock or preferred stock without stockholder approval. Our board of directors may determine the relative rights, preferences and privileges of any class or series of preferred stock issued. As a result, we may issue series or classes of preferred stock with preferences, dividends, powers and rights, voting or otherwise, senior to the rights of our common stock holders. The issuance of preferred stock could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control transaction that might otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders.

(iii) Certain provisions in the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership may delay or prevent an unsolicited acquisition of us.

Provisions in our Operating Partnership agreement may delay or make more difficult unsolicited acquisitions of us or changes in our control. These provisions could discourage third parties from making proposals involving an unsolicited acquisition of us or change of our control, although some stockholders might consider such proposals, if made, desirable. These provisions include, among others:

21

•redemption rights of qualifying parties;

•transfer restrictions on our OP Units;

•the ability of the general partner in some cases to amend the partnership agreement without the consent of the limited partners; and

•the right of the limited partners to consent to transfers of the general partnership interest and mergers under specified circumstances.

Any potential change of control transaction may be further limited as a result of provisions of the partnership unit designation for certain LTIP Units, which require us to preserve the rights of LTIP unit holders and may restrict us from amending the partnership agreement for our Operating Partnership in a manner that would have an adverse effect on the rights of LTIP unit holders.

(iv) Certain provisions of Maryland law could inhibit changes in control.

Certain provisions of the MGCL may have the effect of inhibiting a third party from making a proposal to acquire us or impeding a change of control under circumstances that otherwise could provide our stockholders with the opportunity to realize a premium over the market price of our common stock, including:

•“business combination” provisions that, subject to limitations, prohibit certain business combinations between us and an “interested stockholder” (defined generally as any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of our shares or an affiliate thereof) for five years after the most recent date on which the stockholder becomes an interested stockholder, and thereafter impose special appraisal rights and special stockholder voting requirements on these combinations; and

•“control share” provisions that provide that “control shares” of our company (defined as shares which, when aggregated with other shares controlled by the stockholder, entitle the stockholder to exercise one of three increasing ranges of voting power in electing directors) acquired in a “control share acquisition” (defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of “control shares”) have no voting rights except to the extent approved by our stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding all interested shares.

We have elected to opt out of these provisions of the MGCL, in the case of the business combination provisions of the MGCL, by resolution of our board of directors, and in the case of the control share provisions of the MGCL, pursuant to a provision in our bylaws. However, our board of directors may by resolution elect to repeal the foregoing opt-outs from the business combination provisions of the MGCL and we may, by amendment to our bylaws, opt in to the control share provisions of the MGCL in the future.

Our charter, bylaws, our Operating Partnership agreement and Maryland law also contain other provisions that may delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders.

Our fiduciary duties as the sole stockholder of the general partner of our Operating Partnership could create conflicts of interest.

As the sole stockholder of the general partner of our Operating Partnership, we have fiduciary duties to the other limited partners in our Operating Partnership, the discharge of which may conflict with the interests of our stockholders. The limited partners of our Operating Partnership have agreed that, in the event of a conflict in the fiduciary duties owed by us to our stockholders and, in our capacity as general partner of our Operating Partnership, to such limited partners, we are under no obligation to give priority to the interests of such limited partners. The limited partners have the right to vote on certain amendments to the Operating Partnership agreement (which require approval by a majority in interest of the limited partners, including us) and individually to approve certain amendments that would adversely affect their rights. These voting rights may be exercised in a manner that conflicts with the interests of our stockholders. For example, we are unable to modify the rights of limited partners to receive distributions as set forth in the Operating Partnership agreement in a manner that adversely affects their rights without their consent, even though such modification might be in the best interest of our stockholders.

22

Risks Related to Taxes and Our Status as a REIT

Our property taxes could increase due to property tax rate changes, reassessments or changes in property tax laws, which would adversely impact our cash flows.

We are required to pay property taxes for our properties, which could increase as property tax rates increase or as our properties are assessed or reassessed by taxing authorities. In California, under current law, reassessment occurs primarily as a result of a “change in ownership”. A potential reassessment may take a considerable amount of time, during which the property taxing authorities make a determination of the occurrence of a “change of ownership”, as well as the actual reassessed value. In addition, from time to time, there have been proposals to base property taxes on commercial properties on their current market value, without any limit based on purchase price. If any similar proposal were adopted, the property taxes we pay could increase substantially. In California, pursuant to an existing state law commonly referred to as Proposition 13, properties are reassessed to market value only at the time of change in ownership or completion of construction, and thereafter, annual property reassessments are limited to 2% increases over the previously assessed values. As a result, Proposition 13 generally results in significant below-market assessed values over time. From time to time, including recently, lawmakers and political coalitions have initiated efforts to repeal or amend Proposition 13 to eliminate its application to commercial and industrial properties. If successful, a repeal of Proposition 13 could substantially increase the assessed values and property taxes for our properties in California.

Failure to qualify as a REIT would result in higher taxes and reduced cash available for distributions.

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2006. To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy on a continuing basis certain technical and complex income, asset, organizational, distribution, stockholder ownership and other requirements. See Item 1 "Business Overview" of this Report for more information regarding these tests. Our ability to satisfy these tests depends upon our analysis of and compliance with numerous factors, many of which are not subject to a precise determination and have only limited judicial and administrative interpretations, and which are not entirely within our control. Holding most of our assets through our Operating Partnership further complicates the application of the REIT requirements and a technical or inadvertent mistake could jeopardize our REIT status.  Legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions could significantly change the tax laws with respect to the requirements for qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of qualification as a REIT. Although we believe that we will continue to qualify as a REIT, we can give no assurance that we have qualified or will continue to qualify as a REIT.

If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and certain relief provisions did not apply, we would be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at the regular corporate rate, and distributions to stockholders would not be deductible by us in computing our taxable income. Any such corporate tax liability could be substantial and would reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders. Unless entitled to relief under certain Code provisions, we would also be disqualified from taxation as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which we ceased to qualify as a REIT. In addition, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we would not be required to make distributions to stockholders, and all distributions to stockholders will be subject to tax as dividend income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and are able to avail ourselves of one or more of the relief provisions under the Code in order to maintain our REIT status, we would nevertheless be required to pay penalty taxes of $50,000 or more for each such failure.

As a result of the above factors, our failure to qualify as a REIT could impair our ability to raise capital and expand our business, substantially reduce distributions to stockholders, result in us incurring substantial indebtedness (to the extent borrowings are feasible) or liquidating substantial investments in order to pay the resulting taxes, and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Our Fund, and two of our consolidated JVs, also own properties through one or more entities which are intended to qualify as REITs, and we may in the future use other structures that include REITs. The failure of any such entities to qualify as a REIT could have similar consequences to the REIT subsidiary and could also cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT.

23

If the Operating Partnership, or any of its subsidiaries, were treated as a regular corporation for federal income tax purposes, we could cease to qualify as a REIT.

Although we believe that the Operating Partnership and other subsidiary partnerships, limited liability companies, REIT subsidiaries, QRS and other subsidiaries (other than the TRS) in which we own a direct or indirect interest will be treated for tax purposes as a partnership, disregarded entity (e.g., in the case of a 100% owned limited liability company), REIT or QRS, as applicable, no assurance can be given that the IRS will not successfully challenge the tax classification of any such entity, or that a court would not sustain such a challenge. If the IRS were successful in treating the Operating Partnership or other subsidiaries as entities taxable as a corporation (including a “publicly traded partnership” taxed as a corporation) for federal income tax purposes, we would likely fail to qualify as a REIT and it would significantly reduce the amount of cash available for distribution by such subsidiaries to us.

Even if we qualify as a REIT, we will be required to pay some taxes which would reduce cash available for distributions.

Even if we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we will be required to pay certain federal, state and local taxes on our income and property. For example, we will be subject to income tax to the extent that we distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income (including capital gains). In addition, any net taxable income earned directly by our TRS, or through entities that are disregarded for federal income tax purposes as entities separate from our TRS, will be subject to federal and possibly state corporate income tax. We have elected to treat one of our subsidiaries as a TRS, and we may elect to treat other subsidiaries as TRSs in the future. In this regard, several provisions of the laws applicable to REITs and their subsidiaries ensure that a TRS will be subject to an appropriate level of federal income taxation. For example, for taxable years prior to 2018, a TRS is limited in its ability to deduct interest payments made to an affiliated REIT and, for taxable years after 2017, a TRS is subject to more general limitations on its ability to deduct interest payments to any lender. In addition, the REIT has to pay a 100% tax on some payments that it receives or on some deductions taken by its TRS if the economic arrangements between the REIT, the REIT’s tenants, and the TRS are not comparable to similar arrangements between unrelated parties. In addition, some state and local jurisdictions may tax some of our income even though as a REIT we are not subject to federal income tax on that income because not all states and localities treat REITs the same as they are treated for federal income tax purposes. Moreover, if we have net income from “prohibited transactions,” that income will be subject to a 100% tax. In general, prohibited transactions are sales or other dispositions of property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. Although we do not intend to hold any properties that would be characterized as held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our business, such characterization is a factual determination and we cannot guarantee that the IRS would agree with our characterization of our properties. To the extent that we are required to pay federal, state and local taxes, we will have less cash available for distributions to our stockholders.

REIT distribution requirements could adversely affect our liquidity and cause us to forego otherwise attractive opportunities.

To qualify as a REIT, we generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding any net capital gains. To the extent that we do not distribute all of our net long-term capital gains or at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, we will be required to pay tax thereon at the regular corporate tax rate. We intend to make distributions to our stockholders to comply with the Code requirements for REITs and to minimize or eliminate our corporate income tax obligation. Certain types of assets and activities generate substantial mismatches between taxable income and available cash, either because of differences in timing between the recognition of income and the actual receipt of cash or because of differences between the deduction of expenses and the actual payment of those expenses. Such assets include rental real estate that has been financed through financing structures which require some or all of available cash flows to be used to service borrowings. As a result, the requirement to distribute a substantial portion of our taxable income could cause us to sell assets in adverse market conditions, borrow on unfavorable terms, make a taxable distribution of our stock as part of a distribution in which stockholders may elect to receive our stock or (subject to a limit measured as a percentage of the total distribution) cash, distribute amounts that could otherwise be used to fund our operations, capital expenditures, acquisitions or repayment of debt, or cause us to forego otherwise attractive opportunities.

REIT stockholders can receive taxable income without cash distributions.

Under certain circumstances, REITs are permitted to pay required dividends in shares of their stock rather than in cash. If we were to avail ourselves of that option, our stockholders could be required to pay taxes on such stock distributions without the benefit of cash distributions to pay the resulting taxes.

24

If a transaction intended to qualify as a Section 1031 Exchange is later determined to be taxable or if we are unable to identify and complete the acquisition of a suitable replacement property to effect a Section 1031 Exchange, we may face adverse consequences, and if the laws applicable to such transactions are amended or repealed, we may not be able to dispose of properties on a tax deferred basis.

From time to time we may dispose of real properties in transactions that are intended to qualify as tax deferred exchanges under Section 1031 of the Code (Section 1031 Exchanges). It is possible that the qualification of a transaction as a Section 1031 Exchange could be successfully challenged and determined to be currently taxable. In such cases, our taxable income would increase as would the amount of distributions we are required to make to satisfy our REIT distribution requirements. This could increase the dividend income to our stockholders by reducing any return of capital they receive. In some circumstances, we may be required to pay additional dividends or, in lieu of that, corporate income tax, possibly including interest and penalties. As a result, we may be required to borrow in order to pay additional dividends or taxes, and the payment of such taxes could cause us to have less cash available to distribute to our stockholders. If a Section 1031 Exchange were later to be determined to be taxable, we may be required to amend our tax returns for the applicable year in question, including any reports we distributed to our stockholders. It is possible that legislation could be enacted that could modify or repeal the laws with respect to Section 1031 Exchanges, which could make it more difficult or not possible for us to dispose of properties on a tax deferred basis.

Legislative or other actions affecting REITs could have a negative effect on our investors or us, including our ability to maintain our qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification.

Federal income tax laws are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process, the IRS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Changes to the laws could adversely affect us and our investors. New legislation, Treasury Regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions could significantly and negatively affect our ability to qualify as a REIT, the federal income tax consequences of such qualification, or the federal income tax consequences of an investment in us. Changes to laws relating to the tax treatment of other entities, or an investment in other entities, could make an investment in such other entities more attractive relative to an investment in a REIT.

Non-U.S. investors may be subject to FIRPTA, which would impose tax on certain distributions and on the sale of common stock if we are unable to qualify as a “domestically controlled” REIT or if our stock is not considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market.

A non-U.S. investor disposing of a U.S. real property interest, including shares of a U.S. corporation whose assets consist principally of U.S. real property interests or USRPIs is generally subject to a tax, known as FIRPTA tax, on the gain recognized on the disposition. Such FIRPTA tax does not apply, however, to the disposition of stock in a REIT if the REIT is a “domestically controlled qualified investment entity.” A domestically controlled qualified investment entity includes a REIT in which, at all times during a specified testing period, less than 50% of the value of its shares is held directly or indirectly by non-U.S. holders. In the event that we do not constitute a domestically controlled qualified investment entity, a non-U.S. investor’s sale of our common stock nonetheless will generally not be subject to tax under FIRPTA as a sale of a USRPI, provided that (1) the stock owned is of a class that is “regularly traded” as defined by applicable Treasury regulations, on an established securities market, and (2) the selling non-U.S. investor held 10% or less of our outstanding common stock at all times during a specified testing period. If we were to fail to so qualify as a domestically controlled qualified investment entity and our common stock were to fail to be “regularly traded”, a gain realized by a non-U.S. investor on a sale of our common stock would be subject to FIRPTA tax and applicable withholding. No assurance can be given that we will be a domestically controlled qualified investment entity. Additionally, any distributions we make to our non-U.S. stockholders that are attributable to gain from the sale of any USRPI will also generally be subject to FIRPTA tax and applicable withholdings, unless the recipient non-U.S. stockholder has not owned more than 10% of our common stock at any time during the year preceding the distribution and our common stock is treated as being “regularly traded”.

General Risks

Security breaches through cyber attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems could harm our business.

We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber attacks or cyber intrusions over the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to systems inside our organization and other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber attack or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day-to-day operations (including managing our building systems) and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems, and have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, there can be no assurance that our efforts will be effective in preventing attempted security breaches or disruptions. Even the most well protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases are designed not be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to entirely mitigate this risk. A security breach or other significant disruption involving our IT networks and related systems could have an adverse effect on our business, for example:

•Disruption to our networks and systems and thus our operations and/or those of our tenants or vendors;

•Misstated financial reports, violations of loan covenants, missed reporting deadlines and missed permitting deadlines;

•Inability to comply with laws and regulations;

•Unauthorized access to, destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could be used to compete against us or for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes;

•Rendering us unable to maintain the building systems relied upon by our tenants;

•The requirement of significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result;

•Claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements; and

•Damage to our reputation among our tenants, investors, or others.

Litigation could have an adverse effect on our business.

From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. An unfavorable resolution of litigation could adversely affect us. Even when there is a favorable outcome, litigation may result in substantial expenses and significantly divert the attention of our management with a similar adverse effect on us.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results.

An effective system of internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports, prevent fraud and operate successfully as a public company. There can be no guarantee that our internal controls over financial reporting will be effective in accomplishing all control objectives all of the time. Deficiencies, including material weaknesses, in our internal control over financial reporting that may occur in the future could result in material misstatements in our financial reporting, which could result in restatements of our financial statements. Failure to maintain effective internal controls could cause us to not meet our reporting obligations, which could affect our ability to remain listed with the NYSE or result in SEC enforcement actions, and could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information.

26

New accounting pronouncements could adversely affect our operating results or the reported financial performance of our tenants.

Accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. Uncertainties posed by various initiatives of accounting standard-setting by the FASB and the SEC, which create and interpret applicable accounting standards for U.S. companies, may change the financial accounting and reporting standards or their interpretation and application of these standards that govern the preparation of our financial statements. Similarly, these changes could have a material impact on our tenants’ reported financial condition or results of operations, credit ratings and preferences regarding leasing real estate. See "New Accounting Pronouncements" in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes in Part IV, Item 15 of this Report.  Our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 were affected by a property disposition, a loan refinancing, hedging, and development activity - see Dispositions, Financings and Hedging, Developments and Repositionings further below.

Overview

Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. Through our interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Fund, we are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and in Honolulu, Hawaii. We focus on owning, acquiring, developing and managing a substantial share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods that possess significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities. As of December 31, 2020, our portfolio consisted of the following (including ancillary retail space):

	Consolidated Portfolio(1)	Total Portfolio(2)
Office
Class A Properties	69	71
Rentable Square Feet (in thousands)	17,807	18,192
Leased rate	88.6%	88.6%
Occupancy rate	87.4%	87.4%
Multifamily
Properties	12	12
Units	4,287	4,287
Leased rate	98.2%	98.2%
Occupancy rate	94.2%	94.2%

__________________________________________________

(1)     Our Consolidated Portfolio includes the properties in our consolidated results. Through our subsidiaries, we own 100% of these properties, except for sixteen office properties totaling 4.2 million square feet and one residential property with 350 apartments, which we own through three consolidated JVs. Our Consolidated Portfolio also includes two land parcels from which we receive ground rent from ground leases to the owners of a Class A office building and a hotel.

(2)    Our Total Portfolio includes our Consolidated Portfolio as well as two properties totaling 0.4 million square feet owned by our unconsolidated Fund. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information about our unconsolidated Fund.

Revenues by Segment and Location

During the year ended December 31, 2020, revenues from our Consolidated Portfolio was derived as follows:

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business

Our buildings have remained open and available to our tenants throughout the pandemic. Our rent collections continue to be negatively impacted by the pandemic and our markets' very tenant-oriented lease enforcement moratoriums, which are considerably out of sync with other gateway markets. However, during the third and fourth quarters we did see some incremental improvements in rent collections and leasing activity.

The governmental authorities in the jurisdictions in which we primarily operate, Los Angeles, Beverly Hills and Santa Monica, have passed unusually punitive COVID-19 pandemic ordinances prohibiting evictions and allowing rent deferral for residential, retail, and office tenants, regardless of financial distress. The ordinances cover our residential, retail and office tenants (with some carve outs for large tenants) and generally prohibit landlords not only from evicting tenants but also from imposing any late fees or interest and allow tenants to pay back the deferred rent over a certain period.

At the end of the second, third and fourth quarters, we wrote off certain tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables, and we had a significant decrease in our parking revenues due to lower utilization. For the year ended December 31, 2020, charges for uncollectible amounts related to tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables, which were primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced our office revenues by $41.0 million. If we subsequently collect amounts that were previously written off, then the amounts collected will be recorded as an increase to our rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period they are collected. See "Rental Revenues and Tenant Recoveries" in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report. We cannot predict how the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our future collections. During the second, third and fourth quarters, we had savings from variable expenses which partly offset the write-offs of tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables and the decrease in our parking revenues.

While our tenant retention was in-line with long-term averages, our total office portfolio leased percentage declined by 4.7% during 2020 to 88.6% as of December 31, 2020, as new leasing volume remained below pre-COVID-19 levels. As of December 31, 2020, our multifamily portfolio remained essentially fully leased at 98%.

Other considerations that could impact our future leasing, rent collections, and revenue include:

•How long the pandemic continues.

•Whether the local governments that have authorized rent deferrals in our markets modify or extend the deferral terms, or alternatively allow them to expire as written.

•Whether more tenants stop paying rent if the impact to their business grows.

•How attendance in our buildings changes and drives parking revenue or rent collection.

•How leasing activity and occupancy will evolve.

On the capital front, construction is continuing on our two large multifamily development projects, although the projects may take a little longer under current conditions.

Overall, we expect the COVID-19 pandemic to continue to adversely impact many parts of our business, and those impacts have been, and will continue, to be material. For more information of the risks to our business, please see Item 1A "Risk Factors" in this Report.

Dispositions, Financings and Hedging, Developments and Repositionings

Dispositions

In December 2020, we closed on the sale of an 80,000 square foot office property in Honolulu, which was held by a consolidated JV in which we owned a two-thirds capital interest, for a contract price of $21.0 million in cash, resulting in a gain of $6.4 million after transaction costs. We closed a health club that we owned and operated at the respective property shortly before we sold the property.

Financings and Hedging

•During the first quarter of 2020, we entered into forward interest rate swaps to hedge future term-loan refinancings. The forward swaps have an initial notional amount of $495.0 million, with effective dates ranging from June 2020 to March 2021, and maturity dates ranging from April 2025 to June 2025, fixing the one-month LIBOR interest rate in a range of 0.74% to 0.91%.

•During the second quarter of 2020, we refinanced a loan for one of our consolidated JVs. We closed a secured, non-recourse $450.0 million interest-only loan, which is scheduled to mature in May 2027. The loan bears interest at LIBOR + 1.35%, which was effectively fixed at 2.26% following the expiration of the current swaps, for an average fixed interest rate of 2.6% per annum through April 2025. We used part of the proceeds to pay off a $400.0 million loan, secured by the same properties, that was scheduled to mature in July 2024.

See Notes 8 and 10 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our debt and derivatives, respectively.

Developments

•Residential High-Rise Tower, Brentwood, California

In West Los Angeles, we are building a 34 story high-rise apartment building with 376 apartments. The tower is being built on a site that is directly adjacent to an existing office building and a 712 unit residential property, both of which we own. We expect the cost of the development to be approximately $180 million to $200 million, which does not include the cost of the land which we have owned since 1997. As part of the project, we are investing additional capital to build a one acre park on Wilshire Boulevard that will be available to the public and provide a valuable amenity to our surrounding properties and community. Construction continues on the project, although we may face some delays as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on permitting and other logistics. We currently expect the first units to be delivered in 2022.

•1132 Bishop Street, Honolulu, Hawaii

In downtown Honolulu, we are converting a 25 story, 490 thousand square foot office tower into approximately 500 apartments. This project will help address the severe shortage of rental housing in Honolulu and revitalize the central business district. The conversion is occurring in phases over a number of years as the office space is vacated. We currently estimate the construction costs to be approximately $80 million to $100 million, although the inherent uncertainties of development are compounded by the multi-year and phased nature of the conversion and potential impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. We began leasing the new units during the second quarter of 2020.

Repositionings

We often strategically purchase properties with large vacancies or expected near-term lease roll-over and use our knowledge of the property and submarket to reposition the property for the optimal use and tenant mix. In addition, we may reposition properties already in our portfolio. The work we undertake to reposition a building typically takes months or even years, and could involve a range of improvements from a complete structural renovation to a targeted remodeling of selected spaces. During the repositioning, the affected property may display depressed rental revenue and occupancy levels that impact our results and, therefore, comparisons of our performance from period to period. We have temporarily suspended work on new office repositioning projects due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Rental Rate Trends - Total Portfolio

Office Rental Rates

Our office rental rates for 2020 were primarily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The table below presents the average annual rental rate per leased square foot and the annualized lease transaction costs per leased square foot for leases executed in our total office portfolio during the respective periods:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2020	2019	2018	2017	2016
Average straight-line rental rate(1)(2)	$45.26	$49.65	$48.77	$44.48	$43.21
Annualized lease transaction costs(3)	$5.11	$6.02	$5.80	$5.68	$5.74

___________________________________________________

(1)These average rental rates are not directly comparable from year to year because the averages are significantly affected from period to period by factors such as the buildings, submarkets, and types of space and terms involved in the leases executed during the respective reporting period. Because straight-line rent takes into account the full economic value of each lease, including rent concessions and escalations, we believe that it may provide a better comparison than ending cash rents, which include the impact of the annual escalations over the entire term of the lease.

(2)Reflects the weighted average straight-line Annualized Rent.

(3)Reflects the weighted average leasing commissions and tenant improvement allowances divided by the weighted average number of years for the leases. Excludes leases substantially negotiated by the seller in the case of acquired properties and leases for tenants relocated from space at the landlords request.

Office Rent Roll

The table below presents the rent roll for new and renewed leases per leased square foot executed in our total office portfolio:

	Year Ended December 31, 2020
Rent Roll(1)(2)	Expiring Rate(2)	New/Renewal Rate(2)	Percentage Change
Cash Rent	$43.02	$44.16	2.6%
Straight-line Rent	$38.71	$45.26	16.9%

___________________________________________________

(1)Represents the average annual initial stabilized cash and straight-line rents per square foot on new and renewed leases signed during the year compared to the prior leases for the same space. Excludes leases with a term of twelve months or less, leases where the prior lease was terminated more than a year before signing of the new lease, leases for tenants relocated from space at landlord's request, leases modified by workout agreements, retail leases, and leases in acquired buildings where we believe the information about the prior agreement is incomplete or where we believe base rent reflects other off-market inducements to the tenant.

(2)Our office rent roll can fluctuate from period to period as a result of changes in our submarkets, buildings and term of the expiring leases, making these metrics difficult to predict.

39

Multifamily Rental Rates

Our multifamily rental rates for 2020 were primarily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The table below presents the average annual rental rate per leased unit for new tenants:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2020		2019		2018		2017		2016
Average annual rental rate - new tenants(1)	$	28,416	$	28,350	$	27,542	$	28,501	$	28,435

_____________________________________________________

(1)    These average rental rates are not directly comparable from year to year because of changes in the properties and units included. For example: (i) the average for 2018 decreased from 2017 because we added a significant number of units at our Moanalua Hillside Apartments development in Honolulu, where the rental rates are lower than the average in our portfolio, and (ii) the average for 2019 increased from 2018 because we acquired The Glendon where higher rental rates offset the effect of adding additional units at our Moanalua Hillside Apartments development.

The rent on leases subject to rent change during the year ended December 31, 2020 (new tenants and existing tenants undergoing annual rent review) was 3.4% lower than the prior rent on the same unit.

Occupancy Rates - Total Portfolio

Our occupancy rates for 2020 were primarily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The tables below present the occupancy rates for our total office portfolio and multifamily portfolio:

	December 31,
Occupancy Rates(1) as of:	2020		2019		2018		2017		2016
Office portfolio	87.4	%	91.4	%	90.3	%	89.8	%	90.4	%
Multifamily portfolio(2)	94.2	%	95.2	%	97.0	%	96.4	%	97.9	%

	Year Ended December 31,
Average Occupancy Rates(1)(3):	2020		2019		2018		2017		2016
Office portfolio	89.5	%	90.7	%	89.4	%	89.5	%	90.6	%
Multifamily portfolio(2)	94.2	%	96.5	%	96.6	%	97.2	%	97.6	%

___________________________________________________

(1)Occupancy rates include the impact of property acquisitions, most of whose occupancy rates at the time of acquisition were below that of our existing portfolio.

(2)The Occupancy Rate for our multifamily portfolio was impacted by our acquisition of The Glendon property in 2019 and by new units at our Moanalua Hillside Apartments development in Honolulu in 2019 and 2018.

(3)Average occupancy rates are calculated by averaging the occupancy rates at the end of each of the quarters in the period and at the end of the quarter immediately prior to the start of the period.

40

Office Lease Expirations

As of December 31, 2020, assuming non-exercise of renewal options and early termination rights, we expect to see expiring square footage in our total office portfolio is as follows:

______________________________________________________

(1) Average of the percentage of leases at December 31, 2017, 2018, and 2019 with the same remaining duration as the leases for the labeled year had at December 31, 2020. Acquisitions are included in the prior year average commencing in the quarter after the acquisition.

	(In thousands)
Revenues
Office rental revenue and tenant recoveries	$	680,359	$	694,315	$	(13,956)	(2.0)	%	The decrease was primarily due to: (i) a decrease of $58.4 million in rental revenue and tenant recoveries from properties that we owned throughout both periods and (ii) a decrease of $3.5 million in rental revenues and tenant recoveries from a building we are converting from an office building to residential building in Hawaii, partly offset by (a) an increase of $46.4 million of rental revenues and tenant recoveries from a JV we consolidated in November 2019 and (b) an increase of $1.5 million in rental revenues and tenant recoveries from a property that we purchased in June 2019. The decrease in properties that we owned throughout both periods was primarily due to write-offs of uncollectible receivables and deferred rent receivables and lower collections, both as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Office parking and other income	$	90,810	$	122,440	$	(31,630)	(25.8)	%	The decrease was due to a decrease of $37.5 million in parking and other income from properties we owned throughout both periods, primarily due to a decrease in parking activity as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, partly offset by an increase of $6.0 million in parking and other income from a JV we consolidated in November 2019.
Multifamily revenue	$	120,354	$	119,927	$	427	0.4	%	The increase was due to an increase of: (i) $5.0 million in revenue from a property that we purchased in June 2019, (ii) an increase of $1.9 million in revenue from the new apartments at our Moanalua Hillside Apartments development, and (iii) an increase of $1.0 million in revenues from an office building we are converting to a residential building in Hawaii, partly offset by (a) a decrease of $4.7 million in revenues at a property where units are temporarily unoccupied as a result of a fire, and (b) a decrease of $2.8 million in revenues from our other properties, which was primarily due to lower occupancy and collections, both as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Multifamily revenues for 2020 included $3.9 million of insurance proceeds related to the fire at one of our properties in January 2020.
Operating expenses
Office rental expenses	$	268,259	$	264,482	$	(3,777)	(1.4)	%	The increase was due to: (i) $17.4 million in rental expenses from a JV we consolidated in November 2019, and (ii) an increase of $0.7 million in rental expenses from a property we purchased in June 2019, partly offset by (a) a decrease of $1.6 million in rental expenses from an office building we are converting to a residential building in Hawaii, and (b) a decrease of $12.7 million in rental expenses from our other properties, which was primarily due to a decrease in scheduled services expenses, utility expenses, and repairs and maintenance expenses, as a result of lower utilization caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Multifamily rental expenses	$	37,154	$	33,681	$	(3,473)	(10.3)	%	The increase was primarily due to an increase of $2.8 million in rental expenses from the property we purchased in June 2019, and an increase of $0.2 million in rental expenses from the new apartments at our Moanalua Hillside Apartments development.
General and administrative expenses	$	39,601	$	38,068	$	(1,533)	(4.0)	%	The increase was primarily due to an increase in personnel expenses.
Depreciation and amortization	$	385,248	$	357,743	$	(27,505)	(7.7)	%	The increase was due to: (i) depreciation and amortization of $31.4 million from a JV we consolidated in November 2019, (ii) an increase of $3.2 million in depreciation and amortization from the property we purchased in June 2019, partly offset by (a) a decrease of $2.8 million in depreciation and amortization from an office building we are converting to a residential building in Hawaii, due to less accelerated depreciation of the building in 2020, and (b) a decrease of $4.4 million for our other properties, which was primarily due to property repositioning activity in 2019.
Non-Operating Income and Expenses
Other income	$	16,288	$	11,653	$	4,635	39.8	%	The increase was due to a $13.1 million gain from insurance recoveries related to property damage to a building impacted by a fire, partly offset by (i) a decrease of $4.8 million in revenue from a health club in Honolulu that we owned and operated and closed permanently in the fourth quarter of 2020, (ii) a decrease of $1.6 million in income related to our Fund that was consolidated as a JV in November 2019, and (iii) a decrease of $2.1 million in interest income due to lower money market balances and interest rates.
Other expenses	$	(2,947)	$	(7,216)	$	4,269	59.2	%	The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $3.2 million in expenses for the health club in Honolulu that we closed permanently in the fourth quarter of 2020 and a decrease in expenses of $0.9 million related to our Fund that was consolidated as a JV in November 2019.
Income from unconsolidated Funds	$	430	$	6,923	$	(6,493)	(93.8)	%	The decrease was primarily due to the consolidation of one of our Funds as a JV in November 2019 and a decrease in income from our remaining Fund in 2020. The decrease in income from our remaining Fund was primarily due to the Fund's lower net income in 2020 as a result of write-offs of uncollectible receivables and deferred rent receivables, lower collections, and a decrease in parking income, which were all as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Interest expense	$	(142,872)	$	(143,308)	$	436	0.3	%	The decrease was primarily due to loan costs expensed in connection with our debt refinancing activities in 2019, partly offset by interest expense from the debt of a JV that was consolidated in November 2019 and interest expense from the debt to finance the property we purchased in June 2019.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: FFO

Usefulness to Investors

We report FFO because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is also used by some investors to identify the impact of trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs from year to year, excluding the impacts from changes in the value of our real estate, and to compare our performance with other REITs. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure for which we believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. FFO has limitations as a measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization of real estate, and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations. FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a measure of our liquidity or cash flow, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends. Other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to the FFO of other REITs. See "Results of Operations" above for a discussion of the items that impacted our net income.

Comparison of 2020 to 2019

Our FFO results for 2020 were primarily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our FFO decreased by $52.3 million, or 12.3%, to $372.5 million for 2020 compared to $424.8 million for 2019, which was primarily due to: (i) a decrease in the operating income from our office portfolio (office revenues less office rental expenses), which was primarily due to lower collections, write-offs of uncollectible receivables and deferred rent receivables, and a decrease in parking income, and (ii) a decrease in the operating income from our multifamily portfolio (multifamily revenues less multifamily rental expenses), which was primarily due to an increase in property taxes, insurance premiums and personnel expenses.

Comparison of 2019 to 2018

See Item 7 of Part II in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on February 14, 2020 for a discussion of our FFO for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Reconciliation to GAAP

The table below reconciles our FFO (the FFO attributable to our common stockholders and noncontrolling interests in our Operating Partnership - which includes our share of our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Funds FFO) to net income attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP:

___________________________________________________

(1)We restructured one of our unconsolidated Funds in November 2019 after which it was consolidated as a JV. The various adjustments in the reconciliation of FFO are therefore not directly comparable to the prior period. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements in item 15 of this Report for more information.

(2)Adjusts for our share of our unconsolidated Funds depreciation and amortization of real estate assets.

(3)Adjusts for the net income (loss) and depreciation and amortization of real estate assets that is attributable to the noncontrolling interests in our consolidated JVs.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: Same Property NOI

Usefulness to Investors

We report Same Property NOI to facilitate a comparison of our operations between reported periods. Many investors use Same Property NOI to evaluate our operating performance and to compare our operating performance with other REITs, because it can reduce the impact of investing transactions on operating trends. Same Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure for which we believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.  We report Same Property NOI because it is a widely recognized measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is used by some investors to identify trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs and to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs.  Same Property NOI has limitations as a measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization expense, and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations. Other REITs may not calculate Same Property NOI in the same manner. As a result, our Same Property NOI may not be comparable to the Same Property NOI of other REITs. Same Property NOI should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a measure of our liquidity or cash flow, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends. 

Comparison of 2020 to 2019:

Our same properties for 2020 included 60 office properties, aggregating 16.1 million Rentable Square Feet, and 8 multifamily properties with an aggregate 1,928 units. The amounts presented reflect 100% (not our pro-rata share). Our Same Property results for 2020 were primarily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Short-term liquidity

During the year ended December 31, 2020, we generated cash from operations of $420.2 million. As of December 31, 2020, we had $172.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, and we had a $75.0 million balance on our $400.0 million revolving credit facility. Our earliest debt maturity is February 28, 2023. Excluding acquisitions, development projects and debt refinancings, we expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through cash on hand, cash generated by operations and our revolving credit facility. See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our debt.

Long-term liquidity

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, development projects and debt refinancings. We do not expect to have sufficient funds on hand to cover these long-term cash requirements due to the requirement to distribute a substantial majority of our income on an annual basis imposed by REIT federal tax rules. We plan to meet our long-term liquidity needs through long-term secured non-recourse indebtedness, the issuance of equity securities, including common stock and OP Units, as well as property dispositions and JV transactions. We have an ATM program which would allow us, subject to market conditions, to sell up to $400.0 million of shares of common stock as of the date of this Report.

We only use property level, non-recourse debt. As of December 31, 2020, approximately 41% of our total office portfolio is unencumbered. To mitigate the impact of changing interest rates on our cash flows from operations, we generally enter into interest rate swap agreements with respect to our loans with floating interest rates.  These swap agreements generally expire between one to two years before the maturity date of the related loan, during which time we can refinance the loan without any interest penalty. See Notes 8 and 10 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our debt and derivative contracts, respectively. 

Certain Contractual Obligations

See the following notes to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for information regarding our contractual commitments:

•Note 4 - minimum future ground lease payments;

•Note 8 - minimum future principal payments for our secured notes payable and revolving credit facility, and the interest rates that determine our future periodic interest payments; and

•Note 17 - developments, capital expenditure projects and repositionings.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Unconsolidated Fund's Debt

Our Fund has its own secured non-recourse debt, and we have made certain environmental and other limited indemnities and guarantees covering customary non-recourse carve-outs related to that loan. We have also guaranteed the related swap. Our Fund has agreed to indemnify us for any amounts that we would be required to pay under that agreement. As of December 31, 2020, all of the obligations under the respective loan and swap agreements have been performed in accordance with the terms of those agreements. For information regarding our Fund and our Fund's debt, see Notes 6 and 17, respectively, to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report.

Cash Flows

Comparison of 2020 to 2019

	2020		2019		Increase (Decrease)		%
	(In thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities(1)	$	420,218	$	469,586	$	(49,368)	(10.5)	%
Net cash used in investing activities(2)	$	(265,175)	$	(649,668)	$	(384,493)	(59.2)	%
Cash (used in) provided by financing activities(3)	$	(136,330)	$	187,538	$	(323,868)	(172.7)	%

___________________________________________________

(1)    Our cash flows provided by operating activities are primarily dependent upon the occupancy and rental rates of our portfolio, the collectability of rent and recoveries from our tenants, and the level of our operating expenses and general and administrative expenses, and interest expense.  The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to: (i) a decrease in cash generated by our office portfolio, which was primarily due to a decrease in collections and parking income as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, (ii) an increase of $8.6 million in cash paid for interest primarily due to the consolidation of one of our Funds as a JV in November 2019, (iii) a decrease of $6.4 million in operating distributions from our unconsolidated real estate funds primarily due to the consolidation of one of our Funds as a JV in November 2019, and (iv) a decrease in cash generated by our multifamily portfolio, which was primarily due to an increase in property taxes, insurance premiums and personnel expenses.

(2)    Our cash flows used in investing activities are generally used to fund property acquisitions, developments and redevelopment projects, and Recurring and non-Recurring Capital Expenditures. The decrease in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to: (i) $365.9 million paid for a property that we purchased in June 2019, (ii) a decrease of $84.2 million paid for additional interests in unconsolidated Funds, (iii) a decrease of $33.0 million in capital expenditures for improvements to real estate, and (iv) $20.7 million in net proceeds from the sale of an office property in Honolulu in December 2020, partly offset by (a) an increase of $92.5 million in capital expenditures for developments and (b) $39.2 million of cash assumed from the consolidation of a JV in 2019.

(3)    Our cash flows used in financing activities are generally impacted by our borrowings and capital activities, as well as dividends and distributions paid to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests, respectively.  The decrease is primarily due to (i) $201.0 million of net proceeds from the issuance of common stock in 2019, (ii) $163.6 million of contributions from noncontrolling interests in consolidated JVs in 2019, and (iii) an increase of $16.7 million in dividends paid to common stockholders, partly offset by (a) an increase of $35.0 million in net borrowings and (b) a decrease of $17.5 million in loan cost payments.

Comparison of 2019 to 2018

See Item 7 of Part II in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on February 14, 2020 for a discussion of our cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires us to make estimates of certain items which affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. While we believe that our estimates are based upon reasonable assumptions and judgments at the time that they are made, some of our estimates could prove to be incorrect, and those differences could be material. Below is a discussion of our critical accounting policies, which are the policies we believe require the most estimate and judgment. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report for the summary of our significant accounting policies.

Investment in Real Estate

Acquisitions and Initial Consolidation of VIEs

We account for property acquisitions as asset acquisitions. We allocate the purchase price for asset acquisitions, which includes the capitalized transaction costs, and for the properties upon the initial consolidation of VIEs not determined to be a business, on a relative fair value basis to: (i) land, (ii) buildings and improvements, (iii) tenant improvements and identifiable intangible assets such as in-place at-market leases, (iv) acquired above- and below-market ground and tenant leases, and if applicable (v) assumed debt, based upon comparable sales for land, and the income approach using our estimates of expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques, which include but are not limited to, our estimates of rental rates, revenue growth rates, capitalization rates and discount rates, for other assets and liabilities. We estimate the relative fair values of the tangible assets on an ‘‘as-if-vacant’’ basis. The estimated relative fair value of acquired in-place at-market leases are the estimated costs to lease the property to the occupancy level at the date of acquisition, including the fair value of leasing commissions and legal costs. We evaluate the time period over which we expect such occupancy level to be achieved and include an estimate of the net operating costs (primarily real estate taxes, insurance and utilities) incurred during the lease-up period. Above and below-market ground and tenant leases are recorded as an asset or liability based upon the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid or received pursuant to the in-place ground or tenant leases, respectively, and our estimate of fair market rental rates for the corresponding in-place leases, over the remaining non-cancelable term of the leases. Assumed debt is recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments and current interest rates.

These estimates require judgment, involve complex calculations, and the allocations have a direct and material impact on our results of operations because, for example, (i) there would be less depreciation if we allocate more value to land (which is not depreciated), or (ii) if we allocate more value to buildings than to tenant improvements, the depreciation would be recognized over a much longer time period, because buildings are depreciated over a longer time period than tenant improvements.

Cost capitalization

We capitalize development costs, including predevelopment costs, interest, property taxes, insurance and other costs directly related to the development of real estate. Indirect development costs, including salaries and benefits, office rent, and associated costs for those individuals directly responsible for and who spend their time on development activities are also capitalized and allocated to the projects to which they relate. Development costs are capitalized while substantial activities are ongoing to prepare an asset for its intended use. We consider a development project to be substantially complete when the residential units or office space is available for occupancy but no later than one year after cessation of major construction activity. Costs incurred after a project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, or after development activities have ceased, are expensed as incurred. Costs previously capitalized related to abandoned developments are charged to earnings. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

The capitalization of development costs requires judgment, and can directly and materially impact our results of operations because, for example, (i) if we don't capitalize costs that should be capitalized, then our operating expenses would be overstated during the development period, and the subsequent depreciation of the developed real estate would be understated, or (ii) if we capitalize costs that should not be capitalized, then our operating expenses would be understated during the development period, and the subsequent depreciation of the real estate would be overstated. We capitalized development costs of $186.4 million, $75.3 million and $78.7 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

50

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We assess our investment in real estate for impairment on a periodic basis, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of our investments in real estate may not be recoverable. If the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset are less than the carrying value of the asset, and our evaluation indicates that we may be unable to recover the carrying value, then we would record an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. Our estimates of future cash flows are based in part upon assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and operating costs, and could differ materially from actual results. We record real estate held for sale at the lower of carrying value or estimated fair value, less costs to sell, and similarly recognize impairment losses if we believe that we cannot recover the carrying value. Our evaluation of market conditions for assets held for sale requires judgment, and our expectations could differ materially from actual results. Impairment losses would reduce our net income and could be material. Based upon such periodic assessments we did not record any impairment losses for our long-lived assets and Funds during 2020, 2019 or 2018.

In downtown Honolulu, we are converting a 25 story, 490,000 square foot office tower into approximately 500 apartments in phases over a number of years as the office space is vacated. Due to the significant change in planned use of the property, we performed an annual impairment assessment in 2019 by comparing the property's expected undiscounted cash flows to the property's carrying value plus the expected development costs and concluded that there was no impairment loss. We determined the undiscounted cash flows using our estimates of the expected future cash flows which included, but were not limited to, our estimates of property's net operating income, and capitalization rates.

Revenue Recognition - Collectibility of lease payments from office tenants

In accordance with Topic 842, if collectibility of lease payments is not probable at the commencement date, then we limit the lease income to the lesser of the income recognized on a straight-line basis or cash basis. If our assessment of collectibility changes after the commencement date, we record the difference between the lease income that would have been recognized on a straight-line basis and cash basis as a current-period adjustment to lease income. We adopted the complete impairment model guidance within Topic 842. Under this model, commencing on January 1, 2019, we no longer maintain a general reserve related to our receivables, and instead analyze, on a lease-by-lease basis, whether amounts due under the operating lease are deemed probable for collection. We write off tenant and deferred rent receivables as a charge against rental revenue in the period we determine the lease payments are not probable for collection.

Our assessment of the collectibility of lease payments requires judgment and could have a material impact on our results of operations. This assessment involves using a methodology that requires judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made, including tenant specific factors, specific industry conditions, and general economic trends and conditions. During the year ended December 31, 2020, our results of operations were materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. See "Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business". For the year ended December 31, 2020, charges for uncollectible amounts related to tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables, which were primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced our office revenues by $41.0 million.

Revenue Recognition for Tenant Recoveries

Our tenant recovery revenues for recoverable operating expenses are recognized as revenue in the period that the recoverable expenses are incurred. Subsequent to year-end, we perform reconciliations on a lease-by-lease basis and bill or credit each tenant for any differences between the estimated expenses we billed to the tenant and the actual expenses incurred. Estimating tenant recovery revenues requires an in-depth analysis of the complex terms of each underlying lease. Examples of estimates and judgments made when determining the amounts recoverable include:

•estimating the recoverable expenses;

•estimating the impact of changes to expense and occupancy during the year;

•estimating the fixed and variable components of operating expenses for each building;

•conforming recoverable expense pools to those used in the base year for the underlying lease; and

•judging whether an expense or capital expenditure is recoverable pursuant to the terms of the underlying lease.

51

These estimates require judgment and involve calculations for each of our office properties. If our estimates prove to be incorrect, then our tenant recovery revenues and net income could be materially and adversely affected in future periods when we perform our reconciliations. The impact of changing our current year tenant recovery billings by 5% would result in a change to our tenant recovery revenues and net income of $2.6 million, $2.6 million and $2.4 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

We award stock-based compensation to certain employees and non-employee directors in the form of LTIP Units. We recognize the fair value of the awards over the requisite vesting period, which is based upon service. The fair value of the awards is based upon the market value of our common stock on the grant date and a discount for post-vesting restrictions.

Our estimate of the discount for post-vesting restrictions requires judgment. If our estimate of the discount is too high or too low it would result in the fair value of the awards that we make being too low or too high, respectively, which would result in an under- or over-expense of stock-based compensation, respectively, and this under- or over-expensing of stock-based compensation would result in our net income being overstated or understated, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense was $21.4 million, $18.4 million and $22.3 million for 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The impact of changing the discount rate by 5% would result in a change to our stock-based compensation expense and net income of $1.1 million, $0.9 million and $1.1 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We use interest rate swaps to hedge interest rate risk related to our floating rate borrowings. However, our use of these instruments exposes us to credit risk from the potential inability of our counterparties to perform under the terms of those agreements. We attempt to minimize this credit risk by contracting with a variety of high-quality financial counterparties. See Notes 8 and 10 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our debt and interest rate swaps. As of December 31, 2020, we had no outstanding floating rate debt that was unhedged.

Market Transition to SOFR from USD-LIBOR

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA" - the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced that it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after December 31, 2021. As a result, the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB")and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee ("ARRC"), which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as its preferred alternative to USD-LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to USD-LIBOR. ARRC has proposed a paced market transition plan to SOFR from USD-LIBOR and organizations are currently working on industry-wide and company-specific transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to USD-LIBOR.

The administrator of LIBOR has proposed stopping publication of the one-week and two-month USD-LIBOR settings after 31 December 2021, and the remaining USD LIBOR settings (i.e., the overnight and the one- , three-, six- and 12- month settings) after June 30, 2023. After the announcement, the FCA, FRB and other regulators issued statements encouraging banks to cease entering into new contracts referencing USD-LIBOR as soon as practicable, but no later than 31 December 2021, to facilitate an orderly transition from USD-LIBOR.

Our floating rate borrowings and interest rate swaps are indexed to USD-LIBOR and we are monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks in connection with transitioning contracts to a new alternative rate - which include: (i) loan interest payments, (ii) amounts received and paid on interest rate swaps, and (iii) the value of loans or derivative instruments. While we currently expect USD-LIBOR to be available in substantially its current form until at least December 31, 2021, and possibly until June 30, 2023, it is possible that USD-LIBOR will become unavailable prior to that time. This could result, for example, if sufficient banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR administrator. In that case, the risks associated with the transition to an alternative reference rate will be accelerated and potentially magnified.

Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The management of Douglas Emmett, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Our system of internal control is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with US GAAP. Our management, including the undersigned CEO and CFO, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. In conducting its assessment, management used the criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission on Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013 Framework). Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2020, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.

Management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures, or our internal controls will prevent all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefit of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report, as stated in their report appearing on page F-6, which expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Douglas Emmett, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Douglas Emmett, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020 and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated February 19, 2021 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

F- 2

	Collectability of lease payments due from office tenants
Description of the Matter	During 2020, the Company recognized office rental revenues and tenant recoveries of $680.4 million and recorded tenant receivables of $18.2 million and deferred rent receivables of $116.2 million at December 31, 2020. As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, under ASC 842 the Company performs an assessment as to whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under the tenant’s lease agreement is deemed probable of collection. Subsequently, for leases where the Company has concluded that it is not probable that it will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, the Company limits the lease income to the lesser of the income recognized on a straight-line basis or cash basis. Auditing the Company's collectability assessment is complex due to the judgment involved in the Company’s determination of the collectability of remaining lease payments due from its tenants. The determination involves consideration of tenant specific factors, specific industry conditions, and general economic trends and conditions.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit	We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of the Company's controls over office rental revenues and tenant recoveries, including controls over management’s assessment of the collectability of future lease payments. For example, we tested controls over management’s consideration of the factors mentioned above used in assessing collectability and controls over the completeness and accuracy of the data used in management’s analyses. To test the office rental revenues and tenant recoveries recognized, we performed audit procedures that included, among others, evaluating the data and assumptions used in determining whether collection of substantially all of the lease payments was probable based on the factors mentioned above. In addition, we tested the completeness and accuracy of the data that was used in management’s collectability analyses.
	Impairment of investment in real estate
Description of the Matter	The Company’s net investment in real estate totaled $8.9 billion as of December 31, 2020. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company periodically assesses whether there has been any impairment in the carrying value of its properties and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable. Impairment is recognized on real estate assets held for investment when indicators of impairment are present and the future undiscounted cash flows for a real estate asset are less than its carrying amount, at which time the real estate asset is written down to its estimated fair value. Auditing the Company's impairment assessment for real estate assets was challenging because of the high degree of subjective auditor judgment necessary in evaluating management’s identification of indicators of potential impairment. Our evaluation of management’s identification of indicators of impairment included our related assessment of the severity of such indicators, either individually or in combination, in determining whether a triggering event has occurred that requires the Company to evaluate the recoverability of the real estate asset.

F- 3

How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s real estate asset impairment assessment process. For example, we tested controls over management’s process for identifying and evaluating potential impairment indicators.

Our testing of the Company’s impairment assessment included, among other procedures, evaluating significant judgments applied in determining whether indicators of impairment existed for the Company’s real estate assets. Our procedures included obtaining evidence to corroborate such judgments and searching for evidence contrary to such judgments. For example, we searched for any tenants or groups of tenants with significant write offs or upcoming lease expirations that occupy a substantial portion of a real estate asset. We also searched for any significant declines in operating results of a real estate asset due to occupancy changes, tenant bankruptcies, environmental issues, physical damage, change in intended use or adverse changes in legal factors.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Douglas Emmett, Inc.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited Douglas Emmett, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Douglas Emmett, Inc. (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of Douglas Emmett, Inc. as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020 and related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a), and our report dated February 19, 2021 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Overview

Organization and Business Description

Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. We are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii. Through our interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, consolidated JVs and unconsolidated Fund, we focus on owning, acquiring, developing and managing a significant market share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods that possess significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities. The terms "us," "we" and "our" as used in the consolidated financial statements refer to Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

At December 31, 2020, our Consolidated Portfolio consisted of (i) a 17.8 million square foot office portfolio, (ii) 4,287 multifamily apartment units and (iii) fee interests in two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases. We also manage and own an equity interest an unconsolidated Fund which, at December 31, 2020, owned an additional 0.4 million square feet of office space. We manage our unconsolidated Fund alongside our Consolidated Portfolio, and we therefore present the statistics for our office portfolio on a Total Portfolio basis. As of December 31, 2020, our portfolio (not including two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases), consisted of the following properties (including ancillary retail space):

	Consolidated Portfolio	Total Portfolio
Office
Wholly-owned properties	53	53
Consolidated JV properties	16	16
Unconsolidated Fund properties	—	2
	69	71
Multifamily

Consolidated JV properties	1	1

Total	81	83

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are the consolidated financial statements of Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership and our consolidated JVs. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in our consolidated financial statements. We consolidate entities in which we are considered to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE or have a majority of the voting interest of the entity. We are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have (i) the power to direct the activities of that VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We do not consolidate entities in which the other parties have substantive kick-out rights to remove our power to direct the activities, most significantly impacting the economic performance, of that VIE. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary, we consider factors such as ownership interest, management representation, authority to control decisions, and contractual and substantive participating rights of each party. We consolidate our Operating Partnership through which we conduct substantially all of our business, and own, directly and through subsidiaries, substantially all of our assets, and are obligated to repay substantially all of our liabilities, including $3.19 billion of consolidated debt. See Note 8. We also consolidate three JVs (four JVs before December 31, 2020 - see "2020 Property Disposition" in Note 3 for more information regarding the dissolution of one of our JVs before December 31, 2020). As of December 31, 2020, these consolidated entities had aggregate total consolidated assets of $9.25 billion (of which $8.86 billion related to investment in real estate), aggregate total consolidated liabilities of $5.25 billion (of which $4.74 billion related to debt), and aggregate total consolidated equity of $4.00 billion (of which $1.56 billion related to noncontrolling interests).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC in conformity with US GAAP as established by the FASB in the ASC. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include, in our opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth therein. Any references to the number or class of properties, square footage, per square footage amounts, apartment units and geography, are unaudited and outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm’s audit of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.

Commencing with the third quarter of 2020, we moved the disclosure of our investment in real estate cost categories (land, buildings and improvements, tenant improvements and lease intangibles, and property under development) from the consolidated balance sheets to our investment in real estate footnote for all periods presented. See Note 3.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Investment in Real Estate

Acquisitions and Initial Consolidation of VIEs

We account for property acquisitions as asset acquisitions, and include the acquired properties' results of operations in our results of operations from the respective acquisition date. We allocate the purchase price for asset acquisitions, which includes the capitalized transaction costs, and for the properties upon the initial consolidation of VIEs not determined to be a business, on a relative fair value basis to: (i) land, (ii) buildings and improvements, (iii) tenant improvements and identifiable intangible assets such as in-place at-market leases, (iv) acquired above- and below-market ground and tenant leases (including for renewal options), and if applicable (v) assumed debt and (vi) assumed interest rate swaps, based upon comparable sales for land, and the income approach using our estimates of expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques, which include but are not limited to, our estimates of rental rates, revenue growth rates, capitalization rates and discount rates, for other assets and liabilities. We estimate the relative fair values of the tangible assets on an ‘‘as-if-vacant’’ basis. The estimated relative fair value of acquired in-place at-market leases are the estimated costs to lease the property to the occupancy level at the date of acquisition, including the fair value of leasing commissions and legal costs. We evaluate the time period over which we expect such occupancy level to be achieved and include an estimate of the net operating costs (primarily real estate taxes, insurance and utilities) incurred during the lease-up period. Above- and below-market ground and tenant leases are recorded as an asset or liability based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid or received pursuant to the in-place ground or tenant leases, respectively, and our estimate of the fair market rental rates for the corresponding in-place leases, over the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. Assumed debt is recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments and current interest rates. See Note 3 for our property acquisition disclosures.

Depreciation

Buildings and improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis using an estimated life of forty years for buildings and fifteen years for improvements, and are carried on our balance sheet, offset by the related accumulated depreciation and any impairment charges, until they are sold. Tenant improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the life of the related lease, with any remaining balance depreciated in the period of any early lease termination. Acquired in-place leases are amortized on a straight line basis over the weighted average remaining term of the acquired in-place leases, and are carried on our balance sheet, offset by the related accumulated amortization, until the related building is either sold or impaired. Lease intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related lease term, with any remaining balance amortized in the period of any early lease termination. Acquired above- and below-market tenant leases are amortized/accreted on a straight line basis over the life of the related lease and recorded as either an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to rental revenue. Acquired above- and below-market ground leases, from which we earn ground rent income, are amortized/accreted on a straight line basis over the life of the related lease and recorded either as an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to rental revenue. Acquired above- and below-market ground leases, for which we incur ground rent expense, are accreted/ amortized over the life of the related lease and recorded either as an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to expense.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

We accelerate depreciation for affected assets when we renovate our buildings or existing buildings are impacted by new developments. When assets are sold or retired, their cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from our balance sheet with the resulting gains or losses, if any, reflected in our results of operations for the respective period.

Properties are classified as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets when they meet certain requirements, including the approval of the sale of the property, the marketing of the property for sale, and our expectation that the sale will likely occur within the next 12 months. Properties classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell, and we also cease to depreciate the property. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we did not have any properties held for sale.

Dispositions

Recognition of gains or losses from sales of investments in real estate requires that we meet certain revenue recognition criteria and transfer control of the real estate to the buyer. The gain or loss recorded is measured as the difference between the sales price, less costs to sell, and the carrying value of the real estate when we sell it. See Note 3 for our property disposition disclosures.

Cost capitalization

Costs incurred during the period of construction of real estate are capitalized. Cost capitalization of development and redevelopment activities begins during the predevelopment period, which we define as the activities that are necessary to begin the development of the property.  We cease capitalization upon substantial completion of the project, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity.  We also cease capitalization when activities necessary to prepare the property for its intended use have been suspended. Capitalized costs are included in Investment in real estate, gross, in our consolidated balance sheets. Demolition expenses and repairs and maintenance are recorded as expense when incurred. During 2020, 2019 and 2018, we capitalized $186.4 million, $75.3 million and $78.7 million of costs related to our developments, respectively, which included $4.8 million, $3.8 million and $3.5 million of capitalized interest, respectively.

Ground Leases

We account for our ground lease, for which we are the lessee, in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a prospective basis. Upon adoption of the ASU, we continued to classify the lease as an operating lease, and we recognized a right-of-use asset for the land and a lease liability for the future lease payments of $10.9 million. We calculated the carrying value of the right-of-use asset and lease liability by discounting the future lease payments using our incremental borrowing rate. We adjusted the right-of-use asset carrying value for a related above-market ground lease liability of $3.4 million, which reduced the carrying value of the asset to $7.5 million. We continued to recognize the lease payments as expense, which is included in Office expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. See Note 4 for more information regarding this ground lease. See Note 14 for the fair value disclosures related to the ground lease liability.

Investment in Unconsolidated Funds

We account for our investments in unconsolidated Funds using the equity method because we have significant influence but not control over the Funds. Under the equity method, we initially record our investment in our Funds at cost, which includes acquisition basis difference and additional basis for capital raising costs, and subsequently adjust the investment balance for: (i) our share of the Funds net income or losses, (ii) our share of the Funds other comprehensive income or losses, (iii) our cash contributions to the Fund and (iv) our distributions received from the Fund. We remove our investment in unconsolidated Funds from our consolidated balance sheet when we sell our interest in the Funds or the Funds qualify for consolidation.

Our investment in unconsolidated Funds is included in Investment in unconsolidated Funds in the consolidated balance sheets and our share of net income or losses from the Funds is included in Income from unconsolidated Funds in the consolidated statements of operations. Our share of the Funds accumulated other comprehensive income or losses is included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in our consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the total investment basis difference included in our investment balance in unconsolidated Funds was $29.6 million and $27.8 million, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

We periodically assess whether there has been any impairment that is other than temporary in our investment in unconsolidated funds. An impairment charge would be recorded if events or changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in the fair value below the carrying value has occurred and the decline is other-than-temporary. Based upon such periodic assessments, no impairments occurred during 2020, 2019 or 2018. See Note 6 for our Fund disclosures.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We periodically assess whether there has been any impairment in the carrying value of our properties and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable. An impairment charge would be recorded if events or changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in the fair value below the carrying value has occurred and the decline is other-than-temporary. Recoverability of the carrying value of our properties is measured by a comparison of the carrying value to the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the property. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the property's carrying value and its fair value based on the estimated discounted future cash flows. Based upon such periodic assessments, no impairments occurred during 2020, 2019 or 2018.

In downtown Honolulu, we are converting a 25 story, 490,000 square foot office tower into approximately 500 apartments in phases over a number of years as the office space is vacated. Due to the significant change in planned use of the property, we performed annual impairment assessment in 2019 by comparing the property's expected undiscounted cash flows to the property's carrying value plus the expected development costs and concluded that there was no impairment loss. We determined the undiscounted cash flows using our estimates of the expected future cash flows which included, but were not limited to, our estimates of property's net operating income, and capitalization rates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider short-term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Rental Revenues and Tenant Recoveries

We account for our rental revenues and tenant recoveries in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. Topic 842 did not significantly change our accounting policy for recognizing rental revenues and tenant recoveries, and we adopted a practical expedient which allows us to account for our rental revenues and tenant recoveries on a combined basis. Rental revenues and tenant recoveries from tenant leases are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations. All of our tenant leases are classified as operating leases. For lease terms exceeding one year, rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Tenant receivables consist primarily of amounts due for contractual lease payments and reimbursements of common area maintenance expenses, property taxes, and other costs recoverable from tenants. Deferred rent receivables represent the amount by which the cumulative straight-line rental revenue recorded to date exceeds the cumulative cash rents billed to date under the lease agreement. Rental revenue from month-to-month leases or leases with no scheduled rent increases or other adjustments is recognized on a monthly basis when earned.

Lease termination fees, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, are recognized on a straight line basis over the new remaining lease term when the related lease is canceled. We recognized lease termination revenue of $1.0 million, $0.5 million and $1.6 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Tenant improvements constructed, and owned by us, and reimbursed by tenants are recorded as our assets, and the related revenue, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, is recognized over the related lease term. We recognized revenue for reimbursement of tenant improvements of $5.9 million, $5.8 million and $3.5 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Estimated tenant recoveries for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, are recognized as revenue on a gross basis in the period that the recoverable expenses are incurred. Subsequent to year-end, we perform reconciliations on a lease-by-lease basis and bill or credit each tenant for any differences between the estimated expenses we billed to the tenant and the actual expenses incurred.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

In accordance with Topic 842, we perform an assessment as to whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement is deemed probable of collection. This assessment involves using a methodology that requires judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made, including tenant specific factors, specific industry conditions, and general economic trends and conditions.

For leases where we have concluded it is probable that we will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, we continue to record lease income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases where we have concluded that it is not probable that we will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, we limit the lease income to the lesser of the income recognized on a straight-line basis or cash basis. If our conclusion of collectibility changes, we will record the difference between the lease income that would have been recognized on a straight-line basis and cash basis as a current-period adjustment to rental revenues and tenant recoveries. We write-off tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables as a charge against rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period we conclude that substantially all of the lease payments are not probable of collection. If we subsequently collect amounts that were previously written off then the amounts collected are recorded as an increase to our rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period they are collected. Charges for uncollectible amounts, related to tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables, which for the year ended December 31, 2020 were primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced our office revenues by $41.0 million and $2.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Before the adoption of Topic 842, we presented our tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables net of allowances on our consolidated balance sheets. We considered many factors when evaluating the level of allowances necessary, including evaluations of individual tenant receivables, historical loss activity, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. We generally obtain letters of credit or security deposits from our tenants. Tenant receivable allowances reduced our rental revenues and tenant recoveries by $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, and deferred rent receivable allowances increased our rental revenues and tenant recoveries by $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Office Parking Revenues

Office parking revenues, which are included in office Parking and other income in our consolidated statements of operations, are within the scope of Topic 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". Our lease contracts generally make a specified number of parking spaces available to the tenant, and we bill and recognize parking revenues on a monthly basis in accordance with the lease agreements, generally using the monthly parking rates in effect at the time of billing. Office parking revenues were $76.1 million, $108.7 million and $102.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Office parking receivables were $0.6 million and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and are included in Tenant receivables in our consolidated balance sheets.

Insurance Recoveries

The amount by which insurance recoveries related to property damage exceeds any losses recognized from that damage are recorded as other income when payment has been received or confirmation of the amount of proceeds has been received.

In January 2020, there was a fire in one of our residential property buildings. We carry comprehensive liability and property insurance covering all of the properties in our portfolio under blanket insurance policies to cover these kinds of losses. During the year ended December 31, 2020 we recorded $3.9 million of business interruption revenues, which is included in Multifamily rental - Parking and other income in the consolidated statements of operations, and a gain related to property damage of $13.1 million, which is included in Other income in the consolidated statements of operations.

Interest Income

Interest income from our short-term money market fund investments is recognized on an accrual basis. Interest income is included in other income in the consolidated statements of operations.

Leasing Costs

We account for our leasing costs in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. In accordance with Topic 842, we capitalize initial direct costs of a lease, which are costs that would not have been incurred had the lease not been executed. Costs to negotiate a lease that would have been incurred regardless of whether the lease was executed, such as employee salaries, are not considered to be initial direct costs, and are expensed as incurred. Prior to January 1, 2019, we capitalized most of our leasing costs.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Loan Costs

Loan costs incurred directly with the issuance of secured notes payable and revolving credit facilities are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the respective loan or credit facility term. Any unamortized amounts are written off upon early repayment of the secured notes payable, and the related cost and accumulated amortization are removed from our consolidate balance sheets.

To the extent that a refinancing is considered an exchange of debt with the same lender, we account for loan costs based upon whether the old debt is determined to be modified or extinguished for accounting purposes. If the old debt is determined to be modified then we (i) continue to defer and amortize any unamortized deferred loan costs associated with the old debt at the time of the modification over the new term of the modified debt, (ii) defer and amortize the lender costs incurred in connection with the modification over the new term of the modified debt, and (iii) expense all other costs associated with the modification. If the old debt is determined to be extinguished then we (i) write off any unamortized deferred loan costs associated with the extinguished debt at the time of the extinguishment and remove the related cost and accumulated amortization from our balance sheet, (ii) expense all lender costs associated with the extinguishment, and (iii) defer and amortize all other costs incurred directly in connection with the extinguishment over the term of the new debt.

In circumstances where we modify or exchange our revolving credit facility with the same lender, we account for the loan costs based upon whether the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is (a) equal to or greater than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, or (b) less than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement (borrowing capacity is defined as the product of the remaining term and the maximum available credit). If the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is greater than or equal to the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, then we (i) continue to defer and amortize the unamortized deferred loan costs from the old arrangement over the term of the new arrangement and (ii) defer all lender and other costs incurred directly in connection with the new arrangement over the term of the new arrangement. If the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is less than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, then we (i) write off any unamortized deferred loan costs at the time of the transaction related to the old arrangement in proportion to the decrease in the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement and (ii) defer all lender and other costs incurred directly in connection with the new arrangement over the term of the new arrangement.

Deferred loan costs are presented on the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of our secured notes payable and revolving credit facility. All loan costs expensed and deferred loan costs amortized are included in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations. See Note 8 for our loan cost disclosures.

Debt Discounts and Premiums

Debt discounts and premiums related to recording debt assumed in connection with property acquisitions at fair value are generally amortized and accreted, respectively, over the remaining term of the related loan, which approximates the effective interest method. The amortization/accretion is included in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations.

Derivative Contracts

We make use of interest rate swap contracts to manage the risk associated with changes in interest rates on our floating-rate debt. When we enter into a floating-rate term loan, we generally enter into an interest rate swap agreement for the equivalent principal amount, for a period covering the majority of the loan term, which effectively converts our floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis during that time. We do not speculate in derivatives and we do not make use of any other derivative instruments.

When entering into derivative agreements, we generally elect to designate them as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Changes in fair value of hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI), which is a component of equity outside of earnings. For our Funds' hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges, we record our share of the changes in fair value of the hedging instrument in AOCI. Amounts recorded in AOCI related to our designated hedges are reclassified to Interest expense as interest payments are made on the hedged floating rate debt. Amounts reported in AOCI related to our Funds' hedges are reclassified to Income from unconsolidated Funds, as interest payments are made by our Funds on their hedged floating rate debt.

We present our derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value on a gross basis. Our share of the fair value of our Funds' derivatives is included in our investment in unconsolidated Funds on our consolidated balance sheet. See Note 10 for our derivative disclosures.

F- 17

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation, including stock options and LTIP Units, using the fair value method of accounting. The estimated fair value of stock options and LTIP Units, net of estimated forfeitures, is amortized over the vesting period, which is based upon service. See Note 13 for our stock-based compensation disclosures.

EPS

We calculate basic EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective period. We calculate diluted EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive instruments outstanding during the respective period using the treasury stock method. Unvested LTIP Units contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and we account for them as participating securities and include them in the computation of basic and diluted EPS using the two-class method. See Note 12 for our EPS disclosures.

Segment Information

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for operational decision-making purposes. We operate two business segments: the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate, and the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate. The services for our office segment include primarily rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include primarily rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. See Note 15 for our segment disclosures.

Income Taxes

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2006. To qualify as a REIT, we are required (among other things) to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and meet various other requirements imposed by the Code relating to matters such as operating results, asset holdings, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Provided that we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and are unable to avail ourselves of certain savings provisions set forth in the Code, all of our taxable income would be subject to federal income tax at the regular corporate rate, including any applicable alternative minimum tax for taxable years prior to 2018.

We have elected to treat one of our subsidiaries as a TRS, which generally may engage in any business, including the provision of customary or non-customary services to our tenants. A TRS is treated as a regular corporation and is subject to federal income tax and applicable state income and franchise taxes at regular corporate rates.  Our TRSs did not have significant tax provisions or deferred income tax items for 2020, 2019 or 2018. Our subsidiaries (other than our TRS), including our Operating Partnership, are partnerships, disregarded entities, QRSs or REITs, as applicable, for federal income tax purposes. Under applicable federal and state income tax rules, the allocated share of net income or loss from disregarded entities or flow-through entities is reportable in the income tax returns of the respective owners. Accordingly, no income tax provision is included in our consolidated financial statements for these entities.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Changes to US GAAP are implemented by the FASB in the form of ASUs.  We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Other than the ASUs discussed below, the FASB has not issued any other ASUs that we expect to be applicable and have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

F- 18

Douglas Emmett, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

ASUs Adopted

ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326 - "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses")

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", which amends "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses" (Topic 326). The ASU provides guidance for measuring credit losses on financial instruments. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those years, which for us was the first quarter of 2020. The amendments in the ASU should be applied on a modified-retrospective basis. The ASU impacts our measurement of credit losses for our Office parking receivables, which were $0.6 million and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and are included in Tenant receivables in our consolidated balance sheets. We adopted the ASU in the first quarter of 2020 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2020-04 (Topic 848 - "Reference Rate Reform")

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform", which contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The practical expedients are optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. We elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients maintains the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. We will continue to evaluate the impact of the ASU and may apply other elections, as applicable, as additional changes in the market occur. Our election to apply the hedge accounting expedients in the first quarter of 2020 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Other Pronouncements

FASB COVID-19 Lease Modification Accounting Relief

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question and answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the existing lease accounting guidance, we would be required to determine on a lease-by-lease basis if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated within the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q&A allows us, if certain criteria are met, to bypass the lease-by-lease analysis, and instead elect to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. We have availed ourselves of the election to avoid performing a lease-by-lease analysis and we have elected to apply the lease modification accounting framework for the lease concessions that meet the criteria.

FASB COVID-19 Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Relief

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question and answer document (the “Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Q&A”) on the application of cash flow hedge accounting guidance to cash flow hedges impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Q&A clarifies that: (i) when cash flow hedge accounting has been discontinued, the delays in the timing of the forecasted transactions related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may be considered rare cases caused by extenuating circumstances outside the control or influence of an entity, thereby allowing amounts deferred in AOCI to remain in AOCI until the forecasted transaction affects earnings, and (ii) missed forecasts, related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, do not need to be considered when determining whether the entity has exhibited a pattern of missing forecasts that would call into question the entity’s ability to accurately predict forecasted transactions and the propriety of using cash flow hedge accounting in the future for similar transactions. The Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Q&A did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2020 Property Disposition

In December 2020, we closed on the sale of an 80,000 square foot office property in Honolulu for a contract price of $21.0 million in cash, resulting in a gain of $6.4 million after transaction costs. The property sold was held by one of our consolidated JVs in which we owned a two-thirds capital interest. The JV was subsequently dissolved prior to December 31, 2020.

2019 Property Acquisition and JV consolidation

Acquisition of The Glendon

On June 7, 2019, we acquired The Glendon, a residential community in Westwood, and on June 28, 2019, we contributed the property to a consolidated JV that we manage and in which we own a 20% capital interest. The table below summarizes the purchase price allocation for the acquisition. The contract and purchase prices differ due to prorations and similar adjustments:

Acquired above- and below-market leases, net	(2,114)
Net assets and liabilities acquired	$	366,584

Consolidation of JV

On November 21, 2019, we acquired an additional 16.3% of the equity in one of our previously unconsolidated Funds, Fund X, in exchange for $76.9 million in cash and 332 thousand OP Units valued at $14.4 million, which increased our ownership in the Fund to 89.0%. In connection with this transaction, we restructured the Fund with one remaining institutional investor. The new JV is a VIE, and as a result of the amended operating agreement, we became the primary beneficiary of the VIE and commenced consolidating the JV on November 21, 2019. The results of the consolidated JV are included in our operating results from November 21, 2019 (before November 21, 2019, our share of the Fund's net income was included in our statements of operations in Income from unconsolidated Funds).

F- 20

Douglas Emmett, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

The consolidation of the JV required us to recognize the JVs identifiable assets and liabilities at fair value in our consolidated financial statements, along with the fair value of the non-controlling interest of $61.4 million. We recognized a gain of $307.9 million to adjust the carrying value of our existing investment in the JV to its estimated fair value upon consolidation.

The gain was determined by taking the difference between: (a) the fair value of Fund X’s assets less its liabilities and (b) the sum of the fair value of the noncontrolling interest, carrying value of our existing investment in Fund X, and the amounts paid to acquire other Fund investors’ interests. We determined the fair value of Fund X’s assets and liabilities upon initial consolidation using our estimates of expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques.  We estimated the fair values of Fund X’s properties by using the income and sales comparison valuation approaches which included, but are not limited to, our estimates of rental rates, comparable sales, revenue growth rates, capitalization rates and discount rates.  Assumed debt was recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments and current interest rates.  Other acquired assets, including cash and assumed liabilities were recorded at cost due to the short-term nature of the balances.

The JV owns six Class A office properties totaling 1.5 million square feet in the Los Angeles submarkets of Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Sherman Oaks/Encino and Warner Center. The JV also owns an interest of 9.4% in our remaining unconsolidated Fund, Partnership X, which owns two additional Class A office properties totaling 386,000 square feet in Beverly Hills and Brentwood. The table below summarizes the purchase price allocation for the initial consolidation of the JV:

(In thousands)	JV Consolidation
Consolidation date	November 21, 2019

We pay rent under a ground lease located in Honolulu, Hawaii, which expires on December 31, 2086. The rent is fixed at $733 thousand per year until February 28, 2029, after which it will reset to the greater of the existing ground rent or market.

As of December 31, 2020, the ground lease right-of-use asset carrying value of this ground lease was $7.5 million and the ground lease liability was $10.9 million. We incurred ground rent expense of $733 thousand during 2020, 2019 and 2018, which is included in Office expenses in our consolidated statements of operations.

6. Investments in Unconsolidated Funds

Description of our Funds

As of December 31, 2020, we managed and owned an equity interest of 33.5% in an unconsolidated Fund, Partnership X, through which we and other investors in the Fund own two office properties totaling 0.4 million square feet. During the year ended December 31, 2020 we purchased additional interests of 3.6% in Partnership X for $6.6 million.

As of December 31, 2019, we owned a 29.9% equity interest in Partnership X. Before November 21, 2019, we managed and owned equity interests in three unconsolidated Funds, consisting of 6.2% of the Opportunity Fund, 72.7% of Fund X and 28.4% of Partnership X, through which we and other investors in the Funds owned eight office properties totaling 1.8 million square feet. On November 21, 2019, we acquired additional interests of 16.3% in Fund X and 1.5% in Partnership X, and restructured Fund X which resulted in Fund X being treated as a consolidated JV from November 21, 2019. See Note 3 for more information regarding the consolidation of the JV. We also acquired all of the investors’ ownership interests in the Opportunity Fund (The Opportunity Fund’s only investment was an ownership interest in Fund X) and closed the Opportunity Fund. During the period January 1, 2019 to November 20, 2019 we purchased additional interests of 1.4% in Fund X and 3.9% in Partnership X.

As of December 31, 2018, we owned equity interests of 24.5% in Partnership X, 6.2% in the Opportunity Fund, and 71.3% in Fund X. During the year ended December 31, 2018 we purchased an additional 1.9% interest in Fund X.

Our Funds pay us fees and reimburse us for certain expenses related to property management and other services we provide, which are included in Other income in our consolidated statements of operations. We also receive distributions based on invested capital and on any profits that exceed certain specified cash returns to the investors. The table below presents cash distributions we received from our Funds:

Except as noted below, our loans and revolving credit facility: (i) are non-recourse, (ii) are secured by separate collateral pools consisting of one or more properties, (iii) require interest-only monthly payments with the outstanding principal due upon maturity, and (iv) contain certain financial covenants which could require us to deposit excess cash flow with the lender under certain circumstances unless we (at our option) either provide a guarantee or additional collateral or pay down the loan within certain parameters set forth in the loan documents.  Certain loans with maturity date extensions require us to meet minimum financial thresholds in order to exercise those extensions.

(1)Maturity dates include the effect of extension options.

(2)Effective rate as of December 31, 2020. Includes the effect of interest rate swaps and excludes the effect of prepaid loan fees. See Note 10 for details of our interest rate swaps. See below for details of our loan costs.

Derivative Summary

As of December 31, 2020, all of our interest rate swaps, which include the interest rate swaps of our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Fund, were designated as cash flow hedges:

	Number of Interest Rate Swaps	Notional (In thousands)
Consolidated derivatives(1)(2)(4)(5)	39	$	5,117,400
Unconsolidated Fund's derivative(3)(4)(5)	1	$	110,000

(1)The notional amount reflects 100%, not our pro-rata share, of our consolidated JVs' derivatives.

(2)The notional amount includes:

a.Five swaps with a combined initial notional amount of $135.0 million, which will increase to $1.08 billion in the future to replace existing swaps as they expire, and

b.Two forward swaps (swaps effective after December 31, 2020) with a combined notional of $400.0 million, which will replace existing swaps as they expire.

(3)The notional amount reflects 100%, not our pro-rata share, of our unconsolidated Fund's derivative.

(4)Our derivative contracts do not provide for right of offset between derivative contracts.

(5)See Note 14 for our derivative fair value disclosures.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

Our swaps include credit-risk related contingent features. For example, we have agreements with certain of our interest rate swap counterparties that contain a provision under which we could be declared in default on our derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness that we are hedging is accelerated by the lender due to our default on the indebtedness. As of December 31, 2020, there have been no events of default with respect to our interest rate swaps, our consolidated JVs' swaps or our unconsolidated Fund's interest rate swap. We do not post collateral for our interest rate swap contract liabilities. The fair value of our interest rate swap contract liabilities, including accrued interest and excluding credit risk adjustments, was as follows:

(In thousands)	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Consolidated derivatives(1)	$	225,166	$	56,896

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Counterparty Credit Risk

We are subject to credit risk from the counterparties on our interest rate swap contract assets because we do not receive collateral. We seek to minimize that risk by entering into agreements with a variety of high quality counterparties with investment grade ratings. The fair value of our interest rate swap contract assets, including accrued interest and excluding credit risk adjustments, was as follows:

(In thousands)	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019

11. Equity

Transactions

2020 Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2020, (i) we acquired 94 thousand OP Units in exchange for issuing an equal number of shares of our common stock to the holders of the OP Units, and (ii) we acquired 150 OP Units for $7 thousand in cash.

2019 Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2019, (i) we acquired 222 thousand OP Units in exchange for issuing an equal number of shares of our common stock to the holders of the OP Units, (ii) we acquired 19 thousand OP Units and fully-vested LTIP Units for $734 thousand in cash, and (iii) we issued 4.9 million shares of our common stock under our ATM program for net proceeds of $201.0 million.

We purchased a property on June 7, 2019 for a contract price of $365.1 million, which we subsequently contributed to one of our consolidated JVs on June 28, 2019. We manage and own a twenty percent capital interest in the JV. The acquisition and related working capital was funded with (i) a secured, non-recourse $160.0 million interest-only loan scheduled to mature in June 2029, which was assumed by the consolidated JV to which we contributed the property, (ii) a $44.0 million capital contribution by us to the JV, and (iii) a $176.0 million capital contribution by Noncontrolling interests in the JV. See Note 3 for more information regarding the property acquisition and Note 8 for more information regarding the loan.

On November 21, 2019, we acquired an additional 16.3% of the equity in one of our previously unconsolidated Funds, Fund X, in exchange for $76.9 million in cash and 332 thousand OP Units valued at $14.4 million, which increased our ownership in the Fund to 89.0%. See Note 3 for more information regarding the consolidation of the JV and note 6 for more information regarding our Funds.

2018 Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2018, we (i) acquired 629 thousand OP Units in exchange for issuing an equal number of shares of our common stock to the holders of the OP Units, (ii) acquired 3 thousand OP Units for $108 thousand in cash and (iii) issued 21 thousand shares of our common stock for the exercise of 49 thousand stock options on a net settlement basis (net of the exercise price and related taxes).

Noncontrolling Interests

Our noncontrolling interests consist of interests in our Operating Partnership and consolidated JVs which are not owned by us. Noncontrolling interests in our Operating Partnership owned 30.1 million OP Units and fully-vested LTIP Units, and represented approximately 14.6% of our Operating Partnership's total outstanding interests as of December 31, 2020 when we owned 175.5 million OP Units (to match our 175.5 million shares of outstanding common stock).

A share of our common stock, an OP Unit and an LTIP Unit (once vested and booked up) have essentially the same economic characteristics, sharing equally in the distributions from our Operating Partnership.  Investors who own OP Units have the right to cause our Operating Partnership to acquire their OP Units for an amount of cash per unit equal to the market value of one share of our common stock at the date of acquisition, or, at our election, exchange their OP Units for shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. LTIP Units have been granted to our employees and non-employee directors as part of their compensation. These awards generally vest over a service period and once vested can generally be converted to OP Units provided our stock price increases by more than a specified hurdle.

(1)     Outstanding OP Units and vested LTIP Units are not included in the denominator in calculating diluted EPS, even though they may be exchanged under certain conditions for common stock on a one-for-one basis, because their associated net income (equal on a per unit basis to the Net income per common share - diluted) was already deducted in calculating Net income attributable to common stockholders. Accordingly, any exchange would not have any effect on diluted EPS. The table below presents the weighted average OP Units and vested LTIP Units outstanding for the respective periods:

13. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock Incentive Plans

The Douglas Emmett, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, our stock incentive plan (our "2016 Plan"), permits us to make grants of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, deferred stock awards, restricted stock awards, dividend equivalent rights and other stock-based awards. On May 28, 2020, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2016 Plan to, among other things, increase the number of common shares for future awards by 9.5 million. We had an aggregate of 9.1 million shares available for grant as of December 31, 2020. Awards such as LTIP Units, deferred stock and restricted stock, which deliver the full value of the underlying shares, are counted against the Plan limits as two shares. Awards such as stock options and stock appreciation rights are counted as one share. The number of shares reserved under our 2016 Plan is also subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend or other change in our capitalization. Shares of stock underlying any awards that are forfeited, canceled or otherwise terminated (other than by exercise) are added back to the shares of stock available for future issuance under the 2016 Plan. For options exercised, our policy is to issue common stock on a net settlement basis - net of the exercise price and related taxes.

Until it expired in 2016, we made grants under our 2006 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (our "2006 Plan"), which was substantially similar to our 2016 Plan. No further awards may be granted under our 2006 Plan, although awards granted under the 2006 Plan in the past and which are still outstanding will continue to be governed by the terms of our 2006 Plan.

Our 2016 and 2006 Plans (the "Plans") are administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors. The compensation committee may interpret our Plans and make all determinations necessary or desirable for the administration of our Plans. The committee has full power and authority to select the participants to whom awards will be granted, to make any combination of awards to participants, to accelerate the exercisability or vesting of any award and to determine the specific terms and conditions of each award, subject to the provisions of our 2016 Plan. All officers, employees, directors and other key personnel (including consultants and prospective employees) are eligible to participate in our 2016 Plan.

We have made certain awards in the form of a separate series of units of limited partnership interests in our Operating Partnership called LTIP Units, which can be granted either as free-standing awards or in tandem with other awards under our 2016 Plan. Our LTIP Units are valued by reference to the value of our common stock at the time of grant, and are subject to such conditions and restrictions as the compensation committee may determine, including continued employment or service, and/or achievement of pre-established performance goals, financial metrics and other objectives. Once vested, LTIP Units can generally be converted to OP Units on a one for one basis, provided our stock price increases by more than a specified hurdle.

Employee Awards

We grant stock-based compensation in the form of LTIP Units as a part of our annual incentive compensation to various employees each year, a portion which vests at the date of grant, and the remainder which vests in three equal annual installments over the three calendar years following the grant date. Compensation expense for LTIP Units which are not vested at the grant date is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award. We have also made long-term grants in the form of LTIP Units to certain employees, which generally vest in equal annual installments over four to five calendar years following the grant date, and some of these grants include a portion which vests at the date of grant. In aggregate, we granted 1.1 million, 802 thousand, and 898 thousand LTIP Units to employees during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Non-Employee Director Awards

As annual fees for their services, each of our non-employee directors receives a grant of LTIP Units that vests on a quarterly basis during the year the services are rendered, which is the calendar year following the grant date. We granted 55 thousand, 38 thousand, and 37 thousand LTIP Units to our non-employee directors during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

14. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our estimates of the fair value of financial instruments were determined using available market information and widely used valuation methods.  Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and determine an estimated fair value.  The use of different market assumptions or valuation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair values. The FASB fair value framework hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity, and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market-based inputs.  The hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 - inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  

Level 2 - inputs are observable either directly or indirectly for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.  

Level 3 - inputs are unobservable assumptions generated by the reporting entity

As of December 31, 2020, we did not have any fair value estimates of financial instruments using Level 3 inputs.

Financial instruments disclosed at fair value

Short term financial instruments: The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, revolving credit line, interest payable, accounts payable, security deposits and dividends payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Secured notes payable: See Note 8 for the details of our secured notes payable. We estimate the fair value of our consolidated secured notes payable by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the principal and interest payments for each secured note payable. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs, assumes that the loans will be outstanding through maturity, and includes any maturity extension options. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of our secured notes payable (excluding our revolving credit facility), the carrying value includes unamortized loan premium and excludes unamortized deferred loan fees:

(In thousands)	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Fair value	$	4,719,462	$	4,682,305
Carrying value	$	4,706,979	$	4,660,005

Ground lease liability: See Note 4 for the details of our ground lease. We estimate the fair value of our ground lease liability by calculating the present value of the future lease payments disclosed in Note 4 using our incremental borrowing rate. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of our ground lease liability:

(In thousands)	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Fair value	$	11,865	$	12,218
Carrying value	$	10,871	$	10,882

Financial instruments measured at fair value

Derivative instruments: See Note 10 for the details of our derivatives. We present our derivatives in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, on a gross basis, excluding accrued interest.  We estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the expected future cash flows of each derivative.  The calculation incorporates the contractual terms of the derivatives, observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs, and credit risk adjustments to reflect the counterparty's as well as our own nonperformance risk. Our derivatives are not subject to master netting arrangements.  The table below presents the estimated fair value of our derivatives:

(In thousands)	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Derivative Assets:
Fair value - consolidated derivatives(1)	$	—	$	22,381
Fair value - unconsolidated Fund's derivative(2)	$	—	$	889
Derivative Liabilities:
Fair value - consolidated derivatives(1)	$	214,016	$	54,616
Fair value - unconsolidated Fund's derivative(2)	$	137	$	—

___________________________________________________________________________________

(1)    Consolidated derivatives, which include 100%, not our pro-rata share, of our consolidated JVs' derivatives, are included in interest rate contracts in our consolidated balance sheets. The fair values exclude accrued interest which is included in interest payable in the consolidated balance sheets.

(2)    The amounts reflect 100%, not our pro-rata share, of our unconsolidated Fund's derivative. Our pro-rata share of the amounts related to the unconsolidated Fund's derivative is included in our Investment in unconsolidated Funds in our consolidated balance sheets. See "Guarantees" in Note 17 regarding our unconsolidated Fund's debt and derivative.

15. Segment Reporting

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for operational decision-making purposes.  We operate in two business segments: (i) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate and (ii) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate.  The services for our office segment primarily include rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental.  The services for our multifamily segment include rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. Asset information by segment is not reported because we do not use this measure to assess performance or make decisions to allocate resources. Therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments.  General and administrative expenses and interest expense are not included in segment profit as our internal reporting addresses these items on a corporate level. The table below presents the operating activity of our reportable segments:

(In thousands)	Year Ended December 31,
	2020		2019		2018

16. Future Minimum Lease Rental Receipts

We lease space to tenants primarily under non-cancelable operating leases that generally contain provisions for a base rent plus reimbursement of certain operating expenses, and we own fee interests in two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases. The table below presents the future minimum base rentals on our non-cancelable office tenant and ground leases for our consolidated properties at December 31, 2020:

Year Ending December 31,	(In thousands)
2021	$	635,956
2022	553,974
2023	452,930
2024	355,428
2025	266,182
Thereafter	629,410
Total future minimum base rentals(1)	$	2,893,880

_____________________________________________________

(1)    Does not include (i) residential leases, which typically have a term of one year or less, (ii) holdover rent, (iii) other types of rent such as storage and antenna rent, (iv) tenant reimbursements, (v) straight line rent, (vi) amortization/accretion of acquired above/below-market lease intangibles, and (vii) percentage rents.  The amounts assume that early termination options held by tenants are not exercised.

17. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business.  Excluding ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business, we are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that we believe would reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Concentration of Risk

Tenant Receivables

We are subject to credit risk with respect to our tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables related to our tenant leases. Our tenants' ability to honor the terms of their respective leases remains dependent upon economic, regulatory and social factors. We seek to minimize our credit risk from our tenant leases by: (i) targeting smaller, more affluent tenants, from a diverse mix of industries, (ii) performing credit evaluations of prospective tenants, and (iii) obtaining security deposits or letters of credit from our tenants. During the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, no tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. See Note 2 for the details of our charges to revenue for uncollectible amounts and allowances for tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables.

Geographic Risk

All of our properties, including the properties of our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Fund, are located in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii, and we are therefore susceptible to adverse economic and regulatory developments, as well as natural disasters, in those markets.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Swap Counterparty Credit Risk

We are subject to credit risk with respect to our interest rate swap counterparties that we use to manage the risk associated with our floating rate debt. We do not post or receive collateral with respect to our swap transactions. Our swap contracts do not provide for right of offset between derivative contracts. See Note 10 for the details of our interest rate contracts. We seek to minimize our credit risk by entering into agreements with a variety of high quality counterparties with investment grade ratings.

Cash Balances

We have significant cash balances invested in a variety of short-term money market funds that are intended to preserve principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current income. These investments are not insured against loss of principal and there is no guarantee that our investments in these funds will be redeemable at par value. We also have significant cash balances in bank accounts with high quality financial institutions with investment grade ratings.  Interest bearing bank accounts at each U.S. banking institution are insured by the FDIC up to $250 thousand.

Asset Retirement Obligations

Conditional asset retirement obligations represent a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement is conditional on a future event that may or may not be within our control.  A liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation must be recorded if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated.  Environmental site assessments have identified thirty-two buildings in our Consolidated Portfolio which contain asbestos, and would have to be removed in compliance with applicable environmental regulations if these properties are demolished or undergo major renovations.

As of December 31, 2020, the obligations to remove the asbestos from properties which are currently undergoing major renovations, or that we plan to renovate in the future, are not material to our consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2020, the obligations to remove the asbestos from our other properties have indeterminable settlement dates, and we are unable to reasonably estimate the fair value of the associated conditional asset retirement obligations.

Development and Other Contracts

In West Los Angeles, we are building a high-rise apartment building with 376 apartments. In downtown Honolulu, we are converting a 25 story, 490,000 square foot office tower into approximately 500 apartments in phases over a number of years as the office space is vacated.

As of December 31, 2020, we had an aggregate remaining contractual commitment for these and other development projects of approximately $148.2 million. As of December 31, 2020, we had an aggregate remaining contractual commitment for repositionings, capital expenditure projects and tenant improvements of approximately $23.2 million.

Guarantees

We have made certain environmental and other limited indemnities and guarantees covering customary non-recourse carve- outs for our unconsolidated Fund's debt. We have also guaranteed the related swap. Our Fund has agreed to indemnify us for any amounts that we would be required to pay under these agreements. As of December 31, 2020, all of the obligations under the related debt and swap agreements have been performed in accordance with the terms of those agreements. The table below summarizes our Fund's debt as of December 31, 2020. The amounts represent 100% (not our pro-rata share) of the amounts related to our Fund:

Fund(1)	Loan Maturity Date	Principal Balance (In thousands)		Variable Interest Rate	Swap Fixed Interest Rate	Swap Maturity Date
Partnership X(2)(3)	3/1/2023	$	110,000	LIBOR + 1.40%	2.30%	3/1/2021

___________________________________________________

(1)See Note 6 for more information regarding our unconsolidated Fund.

(2)Floating rate term loan, swapped to fixed, which is secured by two properties and requires monthly payments of interest only, with the outstanding principal due upon maturity. As of December 31, 2020, assuming a zero-percent LIBOR interest rate during the remaining life of the swap, the maximum future payments under the swap agreement were $0.2 million.

(3)Loan agreement includes a zero-percent LIBOR floor. The corresponding swap does not include such a floor.

EXHIBIT 4.2

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES REGISTERED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

The following summary of the material terms of our stock in this section does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to our Articles of Amendment and Restatement and Certificate of Correction to Articles of Amendment and Restatement (“charter”) and Bylaws and Bylaws Amendment (“bylaws”), each of which is an exhibit to the Annual Report on Form 10-K to which this description is an exhibit. At December 31, 2020, Douglas Emmett, Inc. (“we” and “our”) had one outstanding class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”): common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“common stock”).

General.

Our charter provides that we may issue up to 750,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and 200,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. Our charter authorizes our board of directors to amend our charter to increase or decrease the aggregate number of authorized shares or the number of authorized shares of any class or series without common stockholder approval.  As of December 31, 2020, 175,463,887 shares of our common stock, and no shares of our preferred stock, were issued and outstanding. Under Maryland law, our stockholders generally are not liable for our debts or obligations.

Shares of additional classes or series of stock, as well as additional shares of common stock, will be available for issuance without further action by our stockholders, unless stockholder consent is required by applicable law, the terms of any class or series of our stock or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which our securities may be listed or traded. Although our board of directors does not intend to do so, it could authorize us to issue a class or series of stock that could, depending upon the terms of the particular class or series, delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control of our company that might involve a premium price for holders of our common stock or otherwise be in their best interest.

Description of Common Stock.

All shares of our common stock will be, upon issuance, duly authorized, fully paid and nonassessable. Subject to the preferential rights of any other class or series of our stock and to the provisions of our charter regarding the restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock, holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends on such stock if, as and when authorized by our board of directors out of assets legally available therefor and declared by us and to share ratably in the assets of our company legally available for distribution to our stockholders in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment of or adequate provision for all known debts and liabilities of our company.

Subject to the provisions of our charter regarding the restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock discussed below and except as may otherwise be specified in the terms of any class or series of stock, each outstanding share of our common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors, and, except as provided with respect to any other class or series of stock, the holders of such shares will possess the exclusive voting power. There is no cumulative voting in the election of our directors, which means that the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock can elect all of the directors then standing for election by our common stockholders and the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any directors.

Holders of shares of our common stock have no preference, conversion, exchange, sinking fund, redemption or appraisal rights and have no preemptive rights to subscribe for any securities of our company. Subject to the provisions of our charter regarding the restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock, shares of our common stock will have equal dividend, liquidation and other rights.

Under the Maryland General Corporation Law, or MGCL, a Maryland corporation generally cannot dissolve, amend its charter, merge, consolidate, convert, sell all or substantially all of its assets or engage in a statutory share exchange unless the action is approved by the affirmative vote of stockholders entitled to cast at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, unless a lesser percentage (but not less than a majority of all of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter) is set forth in the corporation’s charter. Our charter provides for approval of such matters by the affirmative vote of stockholders entitled to cast at least two-thirds of all of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, except that amendments to our charter (other than any amendment to the provisions of our charter regarding director removal, the approval of extraordinary transactions and the vote required to amend such provisions, which must be approved by the affirmative vote of at least two thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on such amendments) may be approved by the affirmative vote of stockholders entitled to cast a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the amendment.

Our charter authorizes our board of directors to reclassify any unissued shares of our common stock into other classes or series of classes of stock and to establish the number of shares in each class or series and to set the preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption for each such class or series.

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

Preferred Stock.

Our charter authorizes our board of directors to classify any unissued shares of preferred stock and to reclassify any previously classified but unissued shares of any class or series. Prior to issuance of shares of each class or series, our board of directors is required by the MGCL and our charter to set, subject to the provisions of our charter regarding the restrictions on ownership and transfer of stock, the preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption for each such class or series. Thus, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of shares of a class or series of preferred stock with terms and conditions which could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a transaction or a change of control of our company that might involve a premium price for holders of our common stock or otherwise be in their best interest. As of December 31, 2019, no shares of preferred stock are outstanding.

If we offer convertible preferred stock, such stock will be convertible into shares of our common stock or other securities. With respect to any convertible preferred stock (referred to herein as preferred stock) we may choose to offer, the specific designation and terms and conditions will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to the preferred stock offered, including the following terms. Each time that we issue a new series of preferred stock, we will file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland articles supplementary which will state the number of shares and the designation, preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of that class or series of preferred stock. The articles supplementary for the class or series of preferred stock will contain the full legal text of the applicable matters described in this section and our prospectus supplement relating to the preferred stock. See “Available Information” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, of which this exhibit is a part, for information on how to obtain copies of the articles supplementary. The terms of the preferred stock in the articles supplementary will include some or all of the following:

•the designation of the class or series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

•the number of shares of the class or series, which number our board of directors may thereafter (except where otherwise provided in the preferred stock terms) increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding);

•the dividend rate, the dates on which the dividends will be payable, if any, whether dividends will be cumulative or noncumulative and other terms relating to the payment of dividends on the class or series;

•the redemption rights and redemption price or prices, if any, for shares of the class or series;

•whether the preferred stock is redeemable or subject to a sinking fund, and the terms and amount of such sinking fund provided for the purchase or redemption of shares of the class or series;

•the amounts payable on shares of the class or series, and the special or relative rights of such shares, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of our company;

•whether the shares of the class or series are convertible into shares of any other class or series, or any other security, of our company or any other corporation, and, if so, the specification of such other class or series or such other security, the conversion price or prices or rate or rates, any adjustments thereof, the date or dates as of which such shares shall be convertible and all other terms and conditions upon which such conversion may be made;

•any listing of the class or series on any securities exchange;

•the relative ranking and preferences of the class or series as to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation and dissolution or winding up of the affairs of our company;

•restrictions on the authorization classification, reclassification or issuance of shares of the same class or series or of any other class or series of our stock;

•the voting rights, if any, of the holders of shares of the class or series; and

•any additional rights, preferences, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the class or series of preferred stock.

The prospectus supplement relating to any class or series of preferred stock we issue will, to the extent appropriate, describe any applicable material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership of such stock.

Transfer Restrictions and Ownership Limitations Applicable to our Equity Securities.

In order for us to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), our stock must be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months (other than the first year for which an election to be a REIT has been made) or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year. Also, not more than 50% of the value of the outstanding shares of stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include certain entities such as private foundations) at any time during the last half of a taxable year (other than the first year for which an election to be a REIT has been made).

Our charter contains restrictions on the ownership and transfer of our stock. The relevant sections of our charter provide that, subject to the exceptions described below, no person or entity may beneficially own, or be deemed to own by virtue of the applicable constructive ownership provisions of the Code, more than 5.0% in value of the aggregate of our outstanding shares of stock or more than 5.0% in value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive, of the outstanding shares of our common stock. We refer to these restrictions as the “ownership limits.” A person or entity that, but for the ownership limits and the other restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock described below, would have beneficially or constructively owned shares of our stock and, if appropriate in the context, any person or entity that would have been the record owner of such shares, is referred to as a “purported transferee.”

The beneficial and constructive ownership rules under the Code are complex and may cause stock owned actually, beneficially or constructively by a group of related individuals and/or entities to be owned beneficially or constructively by one individual or entity. As a result, the acquisition of less than 5.0% in value of our outstanding stock or less than 5.0% of the value or number of shares of our common stock (or the acquisition of an interest in an entity that owns, actually or constructively, our stock) by an individual or entity, could, nevertheless cause that individual or entity, or another individual or entity, to own beneficially or constructively in excess of 5.0% in value of our outstanding stock or 5.0% of the value or number of our outstanding common stock and thereby subject such stock to the applicable ownership limits.

Our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, prospectively or retroactively, waive the ownership limits with respect to a particular stockholder and establish a different limit on ownership by the stockholder if it determines, based on certain representations and undertakings it must obtain from the stockholder, that:

•such ownership will not cause any individual’s beneficial or constructive ownership of shares of our stock to cause us to be “closely held” within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code (without regard to whether the interest is held during the last half of a taxable year) or otherwise fail to qualify as a REIT; and

•such stockholder does not and will not own, actually or constructively, an interest in a tenant of ours (or a tenant of any entity owned in whole or in part by us) that would cause us to own, actually or constructively, more than a 9.9% interest (as set forth in Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code) in such tenant.

The stockholder seeking the waiver must also agree that any violation or attempted violation of these undertakings will result in stock being automatically transferred to a charitable trust as described below. As a condition of such waiver, our board of directors may also require an opinion of counsel or Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, ruling satisfactory to our board of directors with respect to preserving our REIT status.

In connection with a waiver of an ownership limit or at any other time, our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, decrease one or both of the ownership limits for one or more persons and entities; provided, however, that the decreased ownership limit will not be effective for any person or entity whose percentage ownership of our stock is in excess of such decreased ownership limit until such time as such person or entity’s percentage ownership of our stock equals or falls below the decreased ownership limit, but any further acquisition of our stock in excess of such percentage ownership of our stock will be in violation of the ownership limit. Additionally, the new ownership limit may not allow five or fewer stockholders to beneficially own more than 49.9% in value of our outstanding stock or otherwise cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT.

Our charter provisions further prohibit:

•any person from beneficially or constructively owning shares of our stock that would result in us being “closely held” under Section 856(h) of the Code (without regard to whether the interest is held during the last half of a taxable year) or otherwise cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT; and

•any person from transferring shares of our stock if such transfer would result in shares of our stock being beneficially owned by fewer than 100 persons (determined without reference to any rules of attribution).

Any person who acquires or attempts or intends to acquire beneficial or constructive ownership of shares of our stock that will or may violate any of the foregoing restrictions on transferability and ownership must give notice immediately to us or, in the case of a proposed or attempted transaction, give at least 15 days prior notice, and provide us with such other information as we may request in order to determine the effect of such transfer on our status as a REIT. The foregoing restrictions on transferability and ownership will not apply if our board of directors determines that it is no longer in our best interests to attempt to qualify, or to continue to qualify, as a REIT or that compliance is no longer required in order for us to qualify as a REIT.

Pursuant to our charter, if any purported transfer of our stock or any other event would otherwise result in any person violating the ownership limits or such other limit as is established by our board of directors or would result in our being “closely held” under Section 856(h) of the Code (without regard to whether the interest is held during the last half of a taxable year) or otherwise failing to qualify as a REIT, then that number of shares in excess of the ownership limit or causing us to be “closely held” or otherwise to fail to qualify as a REIT (rounded to the nearest whole share) will be automatically transferred to, and held by, a trust for the exclusive benefit of one or more charitable organizations selected by us. The purported transferee will have no rights in shares of our stock held by the trustee. The automatic transfer will be effective as of the close of business on the business day prior to the date of the violative transfer or other event that results in a transfer to the trust. Any dividend or other distribution paid to the purported transferee, prior to our discovery that the shares had been automatically transferred to a trust as described above, must be repaid to the trustee upon demand for distribution to the beneficiary of the trust. If the transfer to the trust as described above is not automatically effective, for any reason, to prevent violation of the applicable ownership limit or our being “closely held” or otherwise failing to qualify as a REIT, then our charter provides that the purported transfer of the shares will be void. If any transfer would result in shares of our stock being beneficially owned by fewer than 100 persons (determined without reference to any rules of attribution), then any such purported transfer will be void and of no force or effect and the intended transferee will acquire no rights in the shares.

Shares of our stock transferred to the trustee are deemed to be offered for sale to us or our designee at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the price paid by the purported transferee for the shares (or, if the purported transferee did not give value in connection with the transaction that resulted in the transfer of such shares to the trust, for example, in the case of a devise or gift, the last sale price reported on the NYSE on the trading day of the event that resulted in the transfer of such shares of our stock to the trust) and (ii) the market price on the date we accept, or our designee accepts, such offer. We have the right to accept such offer until the trustee has sold the shares of our stock held in the trust pursuant to the clauses discussed below. Upon a sale to us, the interest of the charitable beneficiary in the shares sold terminates and the trustee must distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the purported transferee and any dividends or other distributions held by the trustee with respect to such stock will be paid to the charitable beneficiary.

If we do not buy the shares, the trustee must, within 20 days of receiving notice from us of the transfer of shares to the trust, sell the shares to a person or entity designated by the trustee who could own the shares without violating the ownership limits or the other restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock described above. After that, the trustee must distribute to the purported transferee an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the price paid by the purported transferee or owner for the shares (or, in the event of a devise or gift, the last sale price reported on the NYSE on the trading day of the event that resulted in the transfer of such shares of our stock to the trust) and (ii) the sales proceeds (net of commissions and other expenses of sale) received by the trust for the shares. Any net sales proceeds in excess of the amount payable to the purported transferee will be immediately paid to the charitable beneficiary, together with any dividends or other distributions thereon. In addition, if prior to discovery by us that shares of our stock have been transferred to a trust, such shares of stock are sold by a purported transferee, then such shares will be deemed to have been sold on behalf of the trust and, to the extent that the purported transferee received an amount for or in respect of such shares that exceeds the amount that such purported transferee was entitled to receive, such excess amount must be paid to the trustee upon demand. The purported transferee has no rights in the shares held by the trustee.

The trustee shall be designated by us and must be unaffiliated with us and with any purported transferee. Prior to the sale of any shares by the trust, the trustee will receive, in trust for the beneficiary, all dividends and other distributions paid by us with respect to the shares, and may also exercise all voting rights with respect to the shares.

Subject to Maryland law, effective as of the date that the shares have been transferred to the trust, the trustee has the authority, at the trustee’s sole discretion:

•to rescind as void any vote cast by a purported transferee prior to our discovery that the shares have been transferred to the trust; and

• to recast the vote in accordance with the desires of the trustee acting for the benefit of the beneficiary of the trust.

However, if we have already taken irreversible corporate action, then the trustee may not rescind and recast the vote.

In addition, if our board of directors or any duly authorized committee determines in good faith that a proposed transfer would violate the restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock set forth in our charter, our board of directors or such committee will take such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect to or to prevent such transfer, including, but not limited to, causing us to redeem shares of common stock or preferred stock, refusing to give effect to the transfer on our books or instituting proceedings to enjoin the transfer.

Any owner of 5% or more (or such lower percentage as required by the Code or applicable Treasury Regulations) of the outstanding shares of our common stock must, on request, provide us with a completed questionnaire containing certain information regarding their ownership of such shares and must, on request, disclose to us such information as we may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such stockholder’s beneficial ownership of shares of our stock on our status as a REIT and to ensure compliance with the ownership limits. In addition, any person or entity that is a beneficial owner or constructive owner of shares of our stock and any person or entity (including the stockholder of record) who is holding shares of our stock for a beneficial owner or constructive owner must, on request, disclose to us in writing such information as we may request in order to determine our status as a REIT or to comply, or determine our compliance, with the requirements of any governmental or taxing authority.

All certificates representing shares of our stock bear a legend referring to the restrictions described above.

These restrictions on ownership and transfer could delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control of our company that might involve a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders.

Certain provisions of the MGCL may have the effect of inhibiting a third party from making a proposal to acquire us or impeding a change of control under circumstances that otherwise could provide our stockholders with the opportunity to realize a premium over the market price of our common stock, including:

• “business combination” provisions that, subject to limitations, prohibit certain business combinations between us and an “interested stockholder” (defined generally as any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of our shares or an affiliate thereof) for five years after the most recent date on which the stockholder becomes an interested stockholder, and thereafter impose special appraisal rights and special stockholder voting requirements on these combinations; and

• “control share” provisions that provide that “control shares” of our company (defined as shares which, when aggregated with other shares controlled by the stockholder, entitle the stockholder to exercise one of three increasing ranges of voting power in electing directors) acquired in a “control share acquisition” (defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of “control shares”) have no voting rights except to the extent approved by our stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding all interested shares.

We have elected to opt out of these provisions of the MGCL, in the case of the business combination provisions of the MGCL, by resolution of our board of directors, and in the case of the control share provisions of the MGCL, pursuant to a provision in our bylaws. However, our board of directors may by resolution elect to repeal the foregoing opt-outs from the business combination provisions of the MGCL and we may, by amendment to our bylaws, opt in to the control share provisions of the MGCL in the future.

Our charter, bylaws, our Operating Partnership agreement and Maryland law also contain other provisions that may delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders.

RECITALS

A. Grantee is an employee or director of Douglas Emmett, Inc. and/or its Subsidiaries (the “Company”).

B. Pursuant to this 2016 LTIP Unit Award Agreement (this “Agreement”), the Company’s 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”) and the Limited Partnership Agreement (as amended from time to time, including the Partnership Unit Designation for the 2016 LTIP Units, the “LP Agreement”) of Douglas Emmett Properties LP, (the “Partnership”), the Company and the Partnership hereby grant to Grantee an Other Stock-Based Award (as defined in the Plan, referred to herein as an “Award”) in the amount of the Award LTIP Units.

C. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings given to those terms in the LP Agreement and the Plan.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Company, the Partnership, and Grantee agree as follows:

1. Effectiveness of Award

Upon execution of this Agreement by Grantee, the Partnership and the Company, (i) the LP Agreement shall be amended to reflect the issuance to Grantee of the Award LTIP Units, and (ii) Grantee shall have all the rights of a Limited Partner of the Partnership with respect to the Award LTIP Units subject to the restrictions and conditions specified in LP Agreement and this Agreement. If Grantee has not previously been admitted as a partner of the Partnership, by executing and delivering this Agreement, Grantee shall be deemed to have executed and delivered, and thereby become a party to, the LP Agreement as of the Grant Effective Date.

Page 1 of 8

2. Vesting of Award LTIP Units

(i) General: Subject to the provisions in this Section 2, the Award LTIP Units scheduled to vest on a Vesting Date shall vest, provided that, in the event of an Interrupted Year, each Vesting Date otherwise scheduled in that year or any subsequent year (including any already postponed) shall be postponed by one calendar year. An “Interrupted Year” shall mean any calendar year (including the calendar year of the Grant Effective Date (the“Grant Calendar Year”)) during which Grantee did not engage in Active Service for at least 270 days. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Grantee’s Continuous Service began during the Grant Calendar Year then the Grant Calendar Year shall not be an Interrupted Year if Grantee engaged in Active Service at all times since the beginning of Grantee’s Continuous Service. “Active Service” shall mean any period during which Grantee is actively engaged in paid service to the Company not including any period of (a) Company approved unpaid time off or (b) unpaid leave of absence from work (including but not limited to unpaid personal leave or short-term disability leave). There shall be no proportionate or partial vesting of Award LTIP Units for any partial period. In addition, there shall be no vesting on any date other than December 31st except due to a Change in Control or death of the Grantee (each as described below) or as specified in the table above.

(ii) Cessation of Continuous Service and Forfeiture of Unvested Units: If (a) Grantee’s Continuous Service ceases, or (b) Grantee fails to provide any Active Service during a continuous 365 day period, then all Award LTIP Units not then vested shall automatically be terminated and forfeited without notice or consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Grantee’s Continuous Service ceased as a result of the death of Grantee, then any unvested Award LTIP Units not previously forfeited and scheduled to vest during the calendar year of Grantee’s death, shall immediately vest as of, and the Transferable Date for such Award LTIP Units shall become, the date of death. “Continuous Service” shall mean continuous service to the Company as an employee, consultant or member of the board without termination.

(iii) Vesting Upon Change in Control: The vesting of the Award LTIP Units shall not accelerate on a Sale Event except (a) as provided in this Agreement or with the consent of the Committee or (b) if the principal class of securities for which the Award LTIP Units may ultimately be exchanged are no longer publicly traded following a Change of Control, then any unvested Award LTIP Units not previously forfeited shall immediately vest as of, and the Transferable Date for such Award LTIP Units shall become, the date of cessation of trading. “Change of Control” shall mean any (x) Sale Event or other event (other than an acquisition of securities by the Company) as a result of which any person (other than an Exempted Holder) increases its ownership and is the beneficial owner (as such term is defined in Rule 13d3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), of more than twenty percent (20%) of the total voting power of the surviving entity, or (y) the Board ceasing for any reason to have a majority of directors who were initially elected or nominated by a vote of at least two-thirds of directors who were not elected as a result of an actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of any person other than the Board, including by reason of agreement intended to avoid or settle any such actual or threatened contest or solicitation. “Exempted Holder” shall mean (a) the Company or any majority-owned Subsidiary; (b) any underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering; or (c) Dan Emmett, Jordan Kaplan or Ken Panzer, their immediate family members and family trusts or family-only partnerships and any charitable foundations, any entities in which they and their families beneficially own a majority of the voting interests, and any “group” (as described in Rule 13d-5(b)(i) under the Exchange Act) including them.

(iv) Company Option to Redeem: If Grantee’s Continuous Service has terminated or ceased and Grantee owns less than an aggregate of 1,000 Units in the Partnership (including both Common Units

Page 2 of 8

(“OP Units”) and vested LTIP Units), the Company shall have the right to redeem all of Grantee’s OP Units and vested LTIP Units by paying Grantee the Cash Amount for such OP Units and vested LTIP Units. The Company may exercise its option at any time following the termination or cessation of Grantee’s Continuous Service by delivering a notice to Grantee. Any such redemption shall be effective as of the date of notice, with payment due within ten (10) Business Days after delivery to the Company by Grantee of (a) appropriate transfer documents and (b) any certificates for the LTIP’s or OP Units involved.

3. Distributions

Distributions on the Award LTIP Units shall be paid to Grantee to the extent provided for in the LP Agreement. The Distribution Participation Date (as defined in the LP Agreement) for the Award LTIP Units shall be the Grant Effective Date.

4. Rights with Respect to Award LTIP Units

Without duplication with the provisions of Section 3 of the Plan, if (i) the Company shall at any time be involved in a merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation, reorganization, exchange of shares, sale of all or substantially all of the assets or capital stock of the Company or a transaction similar thereto, (ii) any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, stock combination, reclassification, recapitalization, or other similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or any distribution to holders of Common Stock other than ordinary cash dividends, shall occur or (iii) any other event shall occur which in the judgment of the Committee necessitates action by way of adjusting the terms of the Agreement, then and in that event, the Committee shall take such action as shall be necessary to maintain Grantee’s rights hereunder so that they are substantially proportionate to the rights existing under this Agreement prior to such event, including, but not limited to, adjustments in the Book-Up Hurdle and/or the number of Award LTIP Units then subject to this Agreement, and/or substitution of other awards under the Plan or otherwise. Grantee shall have the right to vote the Award LTIP Units if voting is allowed under the LP Agreement, regardless of whether vesting has occurred.

5. Book-Up Hurdle for Conversion

The Award LTIP Units may not be converted into OP Units until there is a transaction after the Grant Effective Date in which the Partnership recognizes the Minimum Increase (generally involving a stock price in excess of the Book-Up Hurdle). The date on which the Award LTIP Units become convertible is the “Conversion Date”.

6. Forfeiture of Award LTIP Units if not Converted before Termination Date

The Award LTIP Units (even if vested) shall be forfeited, and all rights to the Award LTIP Units hereunder shall terminate and be of no further force or effect, if the Conversion Date has not occurred prior to the Termination Date.

7. Restrictions on Transfer and Redemption

    (i) LTIP Units: Award LTIP Unit may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered, given away, or in any manner disposed of, whether voluntarily or by operation of law (each such action a “Transfer”). Any attempted Transfer of Award LTIP Units shall be null and void.

    (ii)     OP Units: With the written consent of the Company, after the Conversion Date vested Award LTIP Units may be converted into OP Units, but until the Transferable Date for such Award LTIP Unit, no such OP Unit may be either (1) submitted for redemption pursuant to Section 15.1 of the LP

Page 3 of 8

Agreement or (2) Transferred, except to the spouse, children or grandchildren of Grantee or to entities where the sole beneficiaries/owners are the Grantee and/or one or more such persons where all of the following conditions are met: (w) at least two years has passed since the Grant Effective Date; (x) the Committee approves such Transfer on such terms as it may proscribe; (y) each transferee agrees in writing both to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and that subsequent transfers of such OP Units shall be prohibited until the Transferable Date except in accordance with this section and (z) such Transfer is in compliance with all applicable securities laws and the LP Agreement (the Company may require Grantee to provide an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Partnership to such effect). Any attempted Transfer of OP Units not in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 7 shall be null and void.

8. Incorporation of Plan

The Award LTIP Units are equity securities of the Partnership granted as “Other Stock-Based Awards” under the Plan, as is any Stock issued by the Company on redemption of OP Units into which any Award LTIP Units may be converted. Accordingly, this Agreement is subject in all respects to the terms, conditions, limitations and definitions contained in the Plan. In the event of any discrepancy, definitional difference or inconsistency between this Agreement or any written employment or other similar service agreement with the Company (a “Service Agreement”) and the Plan, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall control. In the event of any discrepancy, definitional difference, or inconsistency between this Agreement and any Service Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Service Agreement shall control, it being intended that Grantee have the benefit of any more favorable vesting, definitions, or other provisions of the Service Agreement so long as they are not inconsistent with the Plan.

9. Legend

The records of the Partnership evidencing the Award LTIP Units may bear an appropriate legend, as determined by the Partnership in its sole discretion, to the effect that such Award LTIP Units are subject to restrictions as set forth in this Agreement, the Plan and the LP Agreement.

10. Withholding for Taxes and Cooperation

No later than the date on which an amount first becomes includible in the gross income of Grantee for income tax purposes or subject to the Federal Insurance Contributions Act withholding with respect to the Award LTIP Units granted hereunder, Grantee will pay to the Company or, if appropriate, any of its Subsidiaries, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding the payment of, any United States federal, state or local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment otherwise due to Grantee. So long as Grantee holds any LTIP Units, upon request Grantee shall disclose to the Partnership in writing such information with respect to ownership of LTIP Units as the Partnership may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate to ascertain and to establish compliance with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to the Partnership or to comply with requirements of any other governmental authority.

11. No Obligation to Continue Employment or Other Service Relationship

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is obligated by, or as a result of, the Plan or this Agreement to continue to employ or retain the services of Grantee and neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment or other service relationship of Grantee at any time for any or no reason.

Page 4 of 8

12. No Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the Company from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation plans, agreements or arrangements, and any such plans, agreements and arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases or to specific persons.

13. Investment Representation and No Registration

Grantee hereby makes the covenants, representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto as of the Grant Effective Date and as of each Vesting Date. All such covenants, warranties and representations shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Grantee. Grantee shall immediately notify the Partnership if Grantee discovers that any of the representations or warranties set forth on Exhibit A were or have become false. The Partnership has no obligation to register any of the Award LTIP Units or any other securities issued pursuant to this Agreement or upon conversion or exchange of the Award LTIP Units under the Securities Act.

14. Section 409A

If any compensation provided by this Agreement might result in any adverse impacts under Section 409A of the Code, the Company may, in consultation with Grantee, modify the Agreement to avoid such impacts while minimizing (to the extent practical) any diminution in the value of the benefits granted hereby to Grantee.

15. Amendment and Modification

This Agreement may only be modified or amended (a) in a writing signed by all of the parties hereto or (b) so long as such action does not impair Grantee’s rights under this Agreement, by the Committee for the purpose of satisfying changes in law or for any other lawful purpose. If any term or provision of this Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable law (or if such provision cannot be so construed or deemed amended without materially altering the purpose or intent of this Agreement and the grant of Award LTIP Units hereunder, such provision shall be stricken and the remainder of this Agreement and the award hereunder shall remain in full force and effect).

16. Arbitration

If the parties have entered into an arbitration or mediation agreement relating to Grantee’s employment, the parties agree that any dispute or controversy arising under, out of, in connection with or in relation to this Agreement, and any amendments hereto, or the breach thereof, shall be determined and settled pursuant to the terms of such agreement as if it were set forth herein. Otherwise, any dispute or controversy arising under, out of, in connection with or in relation to this Agreement, and any amendments hereto, or the breach thereof, shall be determined and settled first by mediation wherein each party shall bear their own attorney’s fees, mediator fees and costs; and then, if necessary, by binding arbitration to be held in Los Angeles, California, in accordance with the Company’s Dispute Resolution Agreement, incorporated herein by reference.There will be no right or authority for any dispute to be brought, heard, or arbitrated as a class or collective action. Arbitration shall follow JAMS arbitration rules and procedures then in effect. Any award rendered therein shall be final and binding upon each and all of the parties, and judgment may be entered thereon in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

Grantee understands that (A) Grantee is responsible for consulting his or her own tax advisors with respect to the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws, and the tax laws of any state, local or other taxing jurisdiction to which Grantee is or by reason of the award of LTIP Units may become subject, to his or her particular situation; (B) Grantee has not received or relied upon business or tax advice from the Company, the Partnership or any of their respective employees, agents, consultants or advisors, in their capacity as such; (C) Grantee provides or will provide services to the Partnership on a regular basis and in such capacity has access to such information, and has such experience of and involvement in the business and operations of the Partnership, as Grantee believes to be necessary and appropriate to make an informed decision to accept this Award of LTIP Units; and (D) an investment in the Partnership and/or the Company involves substantial risks. Grantee has been given the opportunity to make a thorough investigation of matters relevant to the LTIP Units and has been furnished with, and has reviewed and understands, materials relating to the Partnership and the Company and their respective activities (including, but not limited to, the Background Documents). Grantee has been afforded the opportunity to obtain any additional information (including any exhibits to the

Page 7 of 8

Background Documents) deemed necessary by Grantee to verify the accuracy of information conveyed to Grantee. Grantee confirms that all documents, records, and books pertaining to his or her receipt of LTIP Units which were requested by Grantee have been made available or delivered to Grantee. Grantee has had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Partnership and the Company, or from a person or persons acting on their behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of the LTIP Units. Grantee has relied upon, and is making its decision solely upon, the Background Documents and other written information provided to Grantee by the Partnership or the Company. Grantee did not receive any tax, legal or financial advice from the Partnership or the Company and, to the extent it deemed necessary, has consulted with its own advisors in connection with its evaluation of the Background Documents and this Agreement and Grantee’s receipt of LTIP Units.

4.Grantee Not Acquiring Units with View to Distribution. The LTIP Units to be issued, the Common Units issuable upon conversion of the LTIP Units and any Shares issued in connection with the redemption of any such Common Units will be acquired for the account of Grantee for investment only and not with a current view to, or with any intention of, a distribution or resale thereof, in whole or in part, or the grant of any participation therein, without prejudice, however, to Grantee’s right (subject to the terms of the LTIP Units, the Plan and this Agreement) at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of his or her LTIP Units, Common Units or Shares in compliance with the Securities Act, and applicable state securities laws, and subject, nevertheless, to the disposition of his or her assets being at all times within his or her control.

5.LTIP Units Not Registered. Grantee acknowledges that (A) the LTIP Units to be issued, nor the OP Units issuable upon conversion of the LTIP Units, have been registered under the Securities Act or state securities laws by reason of a specific exemption or exemptions from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and, if such LTIP Units or OP Units are represented by certificates, such certificates will bear a legend to such effect, (B) the reliance by the Partnership and the Company on such exemptions is predicated in part on the accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties of Grantee contained herein, (C) such LTIP Units, or OP Units, therefore, cannot be resold unless registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, or unless an exemption from registration is available, (D) there is no public market for such LTIP Units and OP Units and (E) neither the Partnership nor the Company has any obligation or intention to register such LTIP Units or the OP Units issuable upon conversion of the LTIP Units under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to take any action that would make available any exemption from the registration requirements of such laws, except, that, upon the redemption of the OP Units for Shares, the Company currently intends to issue such Shares under the Plan and pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Acts. Grantee hereby acknowledges that because of the restrictions on transfer or assignment of such LTIP Units and the OP Units issuable upon conversion of the LTIP Units set forth in the Partnership Agreement and this Agreement, Grantee may have to bear the economic risk of his or her ownership of the LTIP Units and any OP Units issuable upon conversion of the LTIP Units for an indefinite period.

6.Suitable Investment. Grantee has determined that the LTIP Units are a suitable investment for Grantee.

7.No Representations by Company. No representations or warranties have been made to Grantee by the Partnership or the Company, or any officer, director, shareholder, agent, or affiliate of any of them, and Grantee has received no information relating to an investment in the Partnership or the LTIP Units except the information specified in Paragraph 1.

8.    Residence. Grantee is a permanent resident residing at the address set forth in the Company’s records.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Overview

Overview

Organization and Business Description

Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. We are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii. Through our interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, consolidated JVs and unconsolidated Fund, we focus on owning, acquiring, developing and managing a significant market share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods that possess significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities. The terms "us," "we" and "our" as used in the consolidated financial statements refer to Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

At December 31, 2020, our Consolidated Portfolio consisted of (i) a 17.8 million square foot office portfolio, (ii) 4,287 multifamily apartment units and (iii) fee interests in two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases. We also manage and own an equity interest an unconsolidated Fund which, at December 31, 2020, owned an additional 0.4 million square feet of office space. We manage our unconsolidated Fund alongside our Consolidated Portfolio, and we therefore present the statistics for our office portfolio on a Total Portfolio basis. As of December 31, 2020, our portfolio (not including two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases), consisted of the following properties (including ancillary retail space):

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are the consolidated financial statements of Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership and our consolidated JVs. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in our consolidated financial statements. We consolidate entities in which we are considered to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE or have a majority of the voting interest of the entity. We are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have (i) the power to direct the activities of that VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We do not consolidate entities in which the other parties have substantive kick-out rights to remove our power to direct the activities, most significantly impacting the economic performance, of that VIE. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary, we consider factors such as ownership interest, management representation, authority to control decisions, and contractual and substantive participating rights of each party. We consolidate our Operating Partnership through which we conduct substantially all of our business, and own, directly and through subsidiaries, substantially all of our assets, and are obligated to repay substantially all of our liabilities, including $3.19 billion of consolidated debt. See Note 8. We also consolidate three JVs (four JVs before December 31, 2020 - see "2020 Property Disposition" in Note 3 for more information regarding the dissolution of one of our JVs before December 31, 2020). As of December 31, 2020, these consolidated entities had aggregate total consolidated assets of $9.25 billion (of which $8.86 billion related to investment in real estate), aggregate total consolidated liabilities of $5.25 billion (of which $4.74 billion related to debt), and aggregate total consolidated equity of $4.00 billion (of which $1.56 billion related to noncontrolling interests).

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC in conformity with US GAAP as established by the FASB in the ASC. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include, in our opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth therein. Any references to the number or class of properties, square footage, per square footage amounts, apartment units and geography, are unaudited and outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm’s audit of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.Commencing with the third quarter of 2020, we moved the disclosure of our investment in real estate cost categories (land, buildings and improvements, tenant improvements and lease intangibles, and property under development) from the consolidated balance sheets to our investment in real estate footnote for all periods presented. See Note 3.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Investment in Real Estate

Acquisitions and Initial Consolidation of VIEs

We account for property acquisitions as asset acquisitions, and include the acquired properties' results of operations in our results of operations from the respective acquisition date. We allocate the purchase price for asset acquisitions, which includes the capitalized transaction costs, and for the properties upon the initial consolidation of VIEs not determined to be a business, on a relative fair value basis to: (i) land, (ii) buildings and improvements, (iii) tenant improvements and identifiable intangible assets such as in-place at-market leases, (iv) acquired above- and below-market ground and tenant leases (including for renewal options), and if applicable (v) assumed debt and (vi) assumed interest rate swaps, based upon comparable sales for land, and the income approach using our estimates of expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques, which include but are not limited to, our estimates of rental rates, revenue growth rates, capitalization rates and discount rates, for other assets and liabilities. We estimate the relative fair values of the tangible assets on an ‘‘as-if-vacant’’ basis. The estimated relative fair value of acquired in-place at-market leases are the estimated costs to lease the property to the occupancy level at the date of acquisition, including the fair value of leasing commissions and legal costs. We evaluate the time period over which we expect such occupancy level to be achieved and include an estimate of the net operating costs (primarily real estate taxes, insurance and utilities) incurred during the lease-up period. Above- and below-market ground and tenant leases are recorded as an asset or liability based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid or received pursuant to the in-place ground or tenant leases, respectively, and our estimate of the fair market rental rates for the corresponding in-place leases, over the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. Assumed debt is recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments and current interest rates. See Note 3 for our property acquisition disclosures.

Depreciation

Buildings and improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis using an estimated life of forty years for buildings and fifteen years for improvements, and are carried on our balance sheet, offset by the related accumulated depreciation and any impairment charges, until they are sold. Tenant improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the life of the related lease, with any remaining balance depreciated in the period of any early lease termination. Acquired in-place leases are amortized on a straight line basis over the weighted average remaining term of the acquired in-place leases, and are carried on our balance sheet, offset by the related accumulated amortization, until the related building is either sold or impaired. Lease intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related lease term, with any remaining balance amortized in the period of any early lease termination. Acquired above- and below-market tenant leases are amortized/accreted on a straight line basis over the life of the related lease and recorded as either an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to rental revenue. Acquired above- and below-market ground leases, from which we earn ground rent income, are amortized/accreted on a straight line basis over the life of the related lease and recorded either as an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to rental revenue. Acquired above- and below-market ground leases, for which we incur ground rent expense, are accreted/ amortized over the life of the related lease and recorded either as an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to expense.

We accelerate depreciation for affected assets when we renovate our buildings or existing buildings are impacted by new developments. When assets are sold or retired, their cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from our balance sheet with the resulting gains or losses, if any, reflected in our results of operations for the respective period.

Real Estate Held for Sale

Properties are classified as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets when they meet certain requirements, including the approval of the sale of the property, the marketing of the property for sale, and our expectation that the sale will likely occur within the next 12 months. Properties classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell, and we also cease to depreciate the property. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we did not have any properties held for sale.

Dispositions

Recognition of gains or losses from sales of investments in real estate requires that we meet certain revenue recognition criteria and transfer control of the real estate to the buyer. The gain or loss recorded is measured as the difference between the sales price, less costs to sell, and the carrying value of the real estate when we sell it. See Note 3 for our property disposition disclosures.

Cost capitalization

Costs incurred during the period of construction of real estate are capitalized. Cost capitalization of development and redevelopment activities begins during the predevelopment period, which we define as the activities that are necessary to begin the development of the property.  We cease capitalization upon substantial completion of the project, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity.  We also cease capitalization when activities necessary to prepare the property for its intended use have been suspended. Capitalized costs are included in Investment in real estate, gross, in our consolidated balance sheets. Demolition expenses and repairs and maintenance are recorded as expense when incurred. During 2020, 2019 and 2018, we capitalized $186.4 million, $75.3 million and $78.7 million of costs related to our developments, respectively, which included $4.8 million, $3.8 million and $3.5 million of capitalized interest, respectively.

Ground Leases

We account for our ground lease, for which we are the lessee, in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a prospective basis. Upon adoption of the ASU, we continued to classify the lease as an operating lease, and we recognized a right-of-use asset for the land and a lease liability for the future lease payments of $10.9 million. We calculated the carrying value of the right-of-use asset and lease liability by discounting the future lease payments using our incremental borrowing rate. We adjusted the right-of-use asset carrying value for a related above-market ground lease liability of $3.4 million, which reduced the carrying value of the asset to $7.5 million. We continued to recognize the lease payments as expense, which is included in Office expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. See Note 4 for more information regarding this ground lease. See Note 14 for the fair value disclosures related to the ground lease liability.

Investment in Unconsolidated Funds

We account for our investments in unconsolidated Funds using the equity method because we have significant influence but not control over the Funds. Under the equity method, we initially record our investment in our Funds at cost, which includes acquisition basis difference and additional basis for capital raising costs, and subsequently adjust the investment balance for: (i) our share of the Funds net income or losses, (ii) our share of the Funds other comprehensive income or losses, (iii) our cash contributions to the Fund and (iv) our distributions received from the Fund. We remove our investment in unconsolidated Funds from our consolidated balance sheet when we sell our interest in the Funds or the Funds qualify for consolidation.

Our investment in unconsolidated Funds is included in Investment in unconsolidated Funds in the consolidated balance sheets and our share of net income or losses from the Funds is included in Income from unconsolidated Funds in the consolidated statements of operations. Our share of the Funds accumulated other comprehensive income or losses is included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in our consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the total investment basis difference included in our investment balance in unconsolidated Funds was $29.6 million and $27.8 million, respectively.

We periodically assess whether there has been any impairment that is other than temporary in our investment in unconsolidated funds. An impairment charge would be recorded if events or changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in the fair value below the carrying value has occurred and the decline is other-than-temporary. Based upon such periodic assessments, no impairments occurred during 2020, 2019 or 2018. See Note 6 for our Fund disclosures.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We periodically assess whether there has been any impairment in the carrying value of our properties and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable. An impairment charge would be recorded if events or changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in the fair value below the carrying value has occurred and the decline is other-than-temporary. Recoverability of the carrying value of our properties is measured by a comparison of the carrying value to the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the property. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the property's carrying value and its fair value based on the estimated discounted future cash flows. Based upon such periodic assessments, no impairments occurred during 2020, 2019 or 2018.

In downtown Honolulu, we are converting a 25 story, 490,000 square foot office tower into approximately 500 apartments in phases over a number of years as the office space is vacated. Due to the significant change in planned use of the property, we performed annual impairment assessment in 2019 by comparing the property's expected undiscounted cash flows to the property's carrying value plus the expected development costs and concluded that there was no impairment loss. We determined the undiscounted cash flows using our estimates of the expected future cash flows which included, but were not limited to, our estimates of property's net operating income, and capitalization rates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider short-term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Rental Revenues and Tenant Recoveries

We account for our rental revenues and tenant recoveries in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. Topic 842 did not significantly change our accounting policy for recognizing rental revenues and tenant recoveries, and we adopted a practical expedient which allows us to account for our rental revenues and tenant recoveries on a combined basis. Rental revenues and tenant recoveries from tenant leases are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations. All of our tenant leases are classified as operating leases. For lease terms exceeding one year, rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Tenant receivables consist primarily of amounts due for contractual lease payments and reimbursements of common area maintenance expenses, property taxes, and other costs recoverable from tenants. Deferred rent receivables represent the amount by which the cumulative straight-line rental revenue recorded to date exceeds the cumulative cash rents billed to date under the lease agreement. Rental revenue from month-to-month leases or leases with no scheduled rent increases or other adjustments is recognized on a monthly basis when earned.

Lease termination fees, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, are recognized on a straight line basis over the new remaining lease term when the related lease is canceled. We recognized lease termination revenue of $1.0 million, $0.5 million and $1.6 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Tenant improvements constructed, and owned by us, and reimbursed by tenants are recorded as our assets, and the related revenue, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, is recognized over the related lease term. We recognized revenue for reimbursement of tenant improvements of $5.9 million, $5.8 million and $3.5 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Estimated tenant recoveries for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, are recognized as revenue on a gross basis in the period that the recoverable expenses are incurred. Subsequent to year-end, we perform reconciliations on a lease-by-lease basis and bill or credit each tenant for any differences between the estimated expenses we billed to the tenant and the actual expenses incurred.

In accordance with Topic 842, we perform an assessment as to whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement is deemed probable of collection. This assessment involves using a methodology that requires judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made, including tenant specific factors, specific industry conditions, and general economic trends and conditions.

For leases where we have concluded it is probable that we will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, we continue to record lease income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases where we have concluded that it is not probable that we will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, we limit the lease income to the lesser of the income recognized on a straight-line basis or cash basis. If our conclusion of collectibility changes, we will record the difference between the lease income that would have been recognized on a straight-line basis and cash basis as a current-period adjustment to rental revenues and tenant recoveries. We write-off tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables as a charge against rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period we conclude that substantially all of the lease payments are not probable of collection. If we subsequently collect amounts that were previously written off then the amounts collected are recorded as an increase to our rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period they are collected. Charges for uncollectible amounts, related to tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables, which for the year ended December 31, 2020 were primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced our office revenues by $41.0 million and $2.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Before the adoption of Topic 842, we presented our tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables net of allowances on our consolidated balance sheets. We considered many factors when evaluating the level of allowances necessary, including evaluations of individual tenant receivables, historical loss activity, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. We generally obtain letters of credit or security deposits from our tenants. Tenant receivable allowances reduced our rental revenues and tenant recoveries by $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, and deferred rent receivable allowances increased our rental revenues and tenant recoveries by $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Office Parking Revenues

Office parking revenues, which are included in office Parking and other income in our consolidated statements of operations, are within the scope of Topic 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". Our lease contracts generally make a specified number of parking spaces available to the tenant, and we bill and recognize parking revenues on a monthly basis in accordance with the lease agreements, generally using the monthly parking rates in effect at the time of billing. Office parking revenues were $76.1 million, $108.7 million and $102.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Office parking receivables were $0.6 million and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and are included in Tenant receivables in our consolidated balance sheets.

Insurance Recoveries

The amount by which insurance recoveries related to property damage exceeds any losses recognized from that damage are recorded as other income when payment has been received or confirmation of the amount of proceeds has been received.

In January 2020, there was a fire in one of our residential property buildings. We carry comprehensive liability and property insurance covering all of the properties in our portfolio under blanket insurance policies to cover these kinds of losses. During the year ended December 31, 2020 we recorded $3.9 million of business interruption revenues, which is included in Multifamily rental - Parking and other income in the consolidated statements of operations, and a gain related to property damage of $13.1 million, which is included in Other income in the consolidated statements of operations.

Interest Income

Interest income from our short-term money market fund investments is recognized on an accrual basis. Interest income is included in other income in the consolidated statements of operations.

Leasing Costs

We account for our leasing costs in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. In accordance with Topic 842, we capitalize initial direct costs of a lease, which are costs that would not have been incurred had the lease not been executed. Costs to negotiate a lease that would have been incurred regardless of whether the lease was executed, such as employee salaries, are not considered to be initial direct costs, and are expensed as incurred. Prior to January 1, 2019, we capitalized most of our leasing costs.

Loan Costs

Loan costs incurred directly with the issuance of secured notes payable and revolving credit facilities are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the respective loan or credit facility term. Any unamortized amounts are written off upon early repayment of the secured notes payable, and the related cost and accumulated amortization are removed from our consolidate balance sheets.

To the extent that a refinancing is considered an exchange of debt with the same lender, we account for loan costs based upon whether the old debt is determined to be modified or extinguished for accounting purposes. If the old debt is determined to be modified then we (i) continue to defer and amortize any unamortized deferred loan costs associated with the old debt at the time of the modification over the new term of the modified debt, (ii) defer and amortize the lender costs incurred in connection with the modification over the new term of the modified debt, and (iii) expense all other costs associated with the modification. If the old debt is determined to be extinguished then we (i) write off any unamortized deferred loan costs associated with the extinguished debt at the time of the extinguishment and remove the related cost and accumulated amortization from our balance sheet, (ii) expense all lender costs associated with the extinguishment, and (iii) defer and amortize all other costs incurred directly in connection with the extinguishment over the term of the new debt.

In circumstances where we modify or exchange our revolving credit facility with the same lender, we account for the loan costs based upon whether the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is (a) equal to or greater than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, or (b) less than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement (borrowing capacity is defined as the product of the remaining term and the maximum available credit). If the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is greater than or equal to the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, then we (i) continue to defer and amortize the unamortized deferred loan costs from the old arrangement over the term of the new arrangement and (ii) defer all lender and other costs incurred directly in connection with the new arrangement over the term of the new arrangement. If the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is less than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, then we (i) write off any unamortized deferred loan costs at the time of the transaction related to the old arrangement in proportion to the decrease in the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement and (ii) defer all lender and other costs incurred directly in connection with the new arrangement over the term of the new arrangement.

Deferred loan costs are presented on the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of our secured notes payable and revolving credit facility. All loan costs expensed and deferred loan costs amortized are included in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations. See Note 8 for our loan cost disclosures.

Debt Discounts and Premiums

Debt discounts and premiums related to recording debt assumed in connection with property acquisitions at fair value are generally amortized and accreted, respectively, over the remaining term of the related loan, which approximates the effective interest method. The amortization/accretion is included in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations.

Derivative Contracts

We make use of interest rate swap contracts to manage the risk associated with changes in interest rates on our floating-rate debt. When we enter into a floating-rate term loan, we generally enter into an interest rate swap agreement for the equivalent principal amount, for a period covering the majority of the loan term, which effectively converts our floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis during that time. We do not speculate in derivatives and we do not make use of any other derivative instruments.

When entering into derivative agreements, we generally elect to designate them as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Changes in fair value of hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI), which is a component of equity outside of earnings. For our Funds' hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges, we record our share of the changes in fair value of the hedging instrument in AOCI. Amounts recorded in AOCI related to our designated hedges are reclassified to Interest expense as interest payments are made on the hedged floating rate debt. Amounts reported in AOCI related to our Funds' hedges are reclassified to Income from unconsolidated Funds, as interest payments are made by our Funds on their hedged floating rate debt.

We present our derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value on a gross basis. Our share of the fair value of our Funds' derivatives is included in our investment in unconsolidated Funds on our consolidated balance sheet. See Note 10 for our derivative disclosures.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation, including stock options and LTIP Units, using the fair value method of accounting. The estimated fair value of stock options and LTIP Units, net of estimated forfeitures, is amortized over the vesting period, which is based upon service. See Note 13 for our stock-based compensation disclosures.

EPS

We calculate basic EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective period. We calculate diluted EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive instruments outstanding during the respective period using the treasury stock method. Unvested LTIP Units contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and we account for them as participating securities and include them in the computation of basic and diluted EPS using the two-class method. See Note 12 for our EPS disclosures.

Segment Information

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for operational decision-making purposes. We operate two business segments: the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate, and the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate. The services for our office segment include primarily rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include primarily rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. See Note 15 for our segment disclosures.

Income Taxes

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2006. To qualify as a REIT, we are required (among other things) to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and meet various other requirements imposed by the Code relating to matters such as operating results, asset holdings, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Provided that we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and are unable to avail ourselves of certain savings provisions set forth in the Code, all of our taxable income would be subject to federal income tax at the regular corporate rate, including any applicable alternative minimum tax for taxable years prior to 2018.

We have elected to treat one of our subsidiaries as a TRS, which generally may engage in any business, including the provision of customary or non-customary services to our tenants. A TRS is treated as a regular corporation and is subject to federal income tax and applicable state income and franchise taxes at regular corporate rates.  Our TRSs did not have significant tax provisions or deferred income tax items for 2020, 2019 or 2018. Our subsidiaries (other than our TRS), including our Operating Partnership, are partnerships, disregarded entities, QRSs or REITs, as applicable, for federal income tax purposes. Under applicable federal and state income tax rules, the allocated share of net income or loss from disregarded entities or flow-through entities is reportable in the income tax returns of the respective owners. Accordingly, no income tax provision is included in our consolidated financial statements for these entities.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Changes to US GAAP are implemented by the FASB in the form of ASUs.  We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Other than the ASUs discussed below, the FASB has not issued any other ASUs that we expect to be applicable and have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASUs Adopted

ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326 - "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses")

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", which amends "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses" (Topic 326). The ASU provides guidance for measuring credit losses on financial instruments. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those years, which for us was the first quarter of 2020. The amendments in the ASU should be applied on a modified-retrospective basis. The ASU impacts our measurement of credit losses for our Office parking receivables, which were $0.6 million and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and are included in Tenant receivables in our consolidated balance sheets. We adopted the ASU in the first quarter of 2020 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2020-04 (Topic 848 - "Reference Rate Reform")

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform", which contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The practical expedients are optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. We elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients maintains the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. We will continue to evaluate the impact of the ASU and may apply other elections, as applicable, as additional changes in the market occur. Our election to apply the hedge accounting expedients in the first quarter of 2020 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Other Pronouncements

FASB COVID-19 Lease Modification Accounting Relief

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question and answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the existing lease accounting guidance, we would be required to determine on a lease-by-lease basis if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated within the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q&A allows us, if certain criteria are met, to bypass the lease-by-lease analysis, and instead elect to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. We have availed ourselves of the election to avoid performing a lease-by-lease analysis and we have elected to apply the lease modification accounting framework for the lease concessions that meet the criteria.

FASB COVID-19 Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Relief

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question and answer document (the “Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Q&A”) on the application of cash flow hedge accounting guidance to cash flow hedges impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Q&A clarifies that: (i) when cash flow hedge accounting has been discontinued, the delays in the timing of the forecasted transactions related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may be considered rare cases caused by extenuating circumstances outside the control or influence of an entity, thereby allowing amounts deferred in AOCI to remain in AOCI until the forecasted transaction affects earnings, and (ii) missed forecasts, related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, do not need to be considered when determining whether the entity has exhibited a pattern of missing forecasts that would call into question the entity’s ability to accurately predict forecasted transactions and the propriety of using cash flow hedge accounting in the future for similar transactions. The Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Q&A did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2020 Property Disposition

In December 2020, we closed on the sale of an 80,000 square foot office property in Honolulu for a contract price of $21.0 million in cash, resulting in a gain of $6.4 million after transaction costs. The property sold was held by one of our consolidated JVs in which we owned a two-thirds capital interest. The JV was subsequently dissolved prior to December 31, 2020.

2019 Property Acquisition and JV consolidation

Acquisition of The Glendon

On June 7, 2019, we acquired The Glendon, a residential community in Westwood, and on June 28, 2019, we contributed the property to a consolidated JV that we manage and in which we own a 20% capital interest. The table below summarizes the purchase price allocation for the acquisition. The contract and purchase prices differ due to prorations and similar adjustments:

Consolidation of JV

On November 21, 2019, we acquired an additional 16.3% of the equity in one of our previously unconsolidated Funds, Fund X, in exchange for $76.9 million in cash and 332 thousand OP Units valued at $14.4 million, which increased our ownership in the Fund to 89.0%. In connection with this transaction, we restructured the Fund with one remaining institutional investor. The new JV is a VIE, and as a result of the amended operating agreement, we became the primary beneficiary of the VIE and commenced consolidating the JV on November 21, 2019. The results of the consolidated JV are included in our operating results from November 21, 2019 (before November 21, 2019, our share of the Fund's net income was included in our statements of operations in Income from unconsolidated Funds).

The consolidation of the JV required us to recognize the JVs identifiable assets and liabilities at fair value in our consolidated financial statements, along with the fair value of the non-controlling interest of $61.4 million. We recognized a gain of $307.9 million to adjust the carrying value of our existing investment in the JV to its estimated fair value upon consolidation.

The gain was determined by taking the difference between: (a) the fair value of Fund X’s assets less its liabilities and (b) the sum of the fair value of the noncontrolling interest, carrying value of our existing investment in Fund X, and the amounts paid to acquire other Fund investors’ interests. We determined the fair value of Fund X’s assets and liabilities upon initial consolidation using our estimates of expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques.  We estimated the fair values of Fund X’s properties by using the income and sales comparison valuation approaches which included, but are not limited to, our estimates of rental rates, comparable sales, revenue growth rates, capitalization rates and discount rates.  Assumed debt was recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments and current interest rates.  Other acquired assets, including cash and assumed liabilities were recorded at cost due to the short-term nature of the balances.

The JV owns six Class A office properties totaling 1.5 million square feet in the Los Angeles submarkets of Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Sherman Oaks/Encino and Warner Center. The JV also owns an interest of 9.4% in our remaining unconsolidated Fund, Partnership X, which owns two additional Class A office properties totaling 386,000 square feet in Beverly Hills and Brentwood. The table below summarizes the purchase price allocation for the initial consolidation of the JV:

Real Estate Investments, Net [Abstract]

Investments in Unconsolidated Funds

Investments in Unconsolidated Funds

Description of our Funds

As of December 31, 2020, we managed and owned an equity interest of 33.5% in an unconsolidated Fund, Partnership X, through which we and other investors in the Fund own two office properties totaling 0.4 million square feet. During the year ended December 31, 2020 we purchased additional interests of 3.6% in Partnership X for $6.6 million.

As of December 31, 2019, we owned a 29.9% equity interest in Partnership X. Before November 21, 2019, we managed and owned equity interests in three unconsolidated Funds, consisting of 6.2% of the Opportunity Fund, 72.7% of Fund X and 28.4% of Partnership X, through which we and other investors in the Funds owned eight office properties totaling 1.8 million square feet. On November 21, 2019, we acquired additional interests of 16.3% in Fund X and 1.5% in Partnership X, and restructured Fund X which resulted in Fund X being treated as a consolidated JV from November 21, 2019. See Note 3 for more information regarding the consolidation of the JV. We also acquired all of the investors’ ownership interests in the Opportunity Fund (The Opportunity Fund’s only investment was an ownership interest in Fund X) and closed the Opportunity Fund. During the period January 1, 2019 to November 20, 2019 we purchased additional interests of 1.4% in Fund X and 3.9% in Partnership X.

As of December 31, 2018, we owned equity interests of 24.5% in Partnership X, 6.2% in the Opportunity Fund, and 71.3% in Fund X. During the year ended December 31, 2018 we purchased an additional 1.9% interest in Fund X.

Our Funds pay us fees and reimburse us for certain expenses related to property management and other services we provide, which are included in Other income in our consolidated statements of operations.

Except as noted below, our loans and revolving credit facility: (i) are non-recourse, (ii) are secured by separate collateral pools consisting of one or more properties, (iii) require interest-only monthly payments with the outstanding principal due upon maturity, and (iv) contain certain financial covenants which could require us to deposit excess cash flow with the lender under certain circumstances unless we (at our option) either provide a guarantee or additional collateral or pay down the loan within certain parameters set forth in the loan documents.  Certain loans with maturity date extensions require us to meet minimum financial thresholds in order to exercise those extensions.

Derivative Summary

As of December 31, 2020, all of our interest rate swaps, which include the interest rate swaps of our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Fund, were designated as cash flow hedges:

	Number of Interest Rate Swaps	Notional (In thousands)
Consolidated derivatives(1)(2)(4)(5)	39	$	5,117,400
Unconsolidated Fund's derivative(3)(4)(5)	1	$	110,000

___________________________________________________

(1)The notional amount reflects 100%, not our pro-rata share, of our consolidated JVs' derivatives.

(2)The notional amount includes:

a.Five swaps with a combined initial notional amount of $135.0 million, which will increase to $1.08 billion in the future to replace existing swaps as they expire, and

b.Two forward swaps (swaps effective after December 31, 2020) with a combined notional of $400.0 million, which will replace existing swaps as they expire.

(3)The notional amount reflects 100%, not our pro-rata share, of our unconsolidated Fund's derivative.

(4)Our derivative contracts do not provide for right of offset between derivative contracts.

(5)See Note 14 for our derivative fair value disclosures.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

Our swaps include credit-risk related contingent features. For example, we have agreements with certain of our interest rate swap counterparties that contain a provision under which we could be declared in default on our derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness that we are hedging is accelerated by the lender due to our default on the indebtedness. As of December 31, 2020, there have been no events of default with respect to our interest rate swaps, our consolidated JVs' swaps or our unconsolidated Fund's interest rate swap. We do not post collateral for our interest rate swap contract liabilities. The fair value of our interest rate swap contract liabilities, including accrued interest and excluding credit risk adjustments, was as follows:

(In thousands)	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Consolidated derivatives(1)	$	225,166	$	56,896
Unconsolidated Fund's derivative	$	208	$	—

___________________________________________________

(1)Includes 100%, not our pro-rata share, of our consolidated JVs' derivatives.

Counterparty Credit Risk

We are subject to credit risk from the counterparties on our interest rate swap contract assets because we do not receive collateral. We seek to minimize that risk by entering into agreements with a variety of high quality counterparties with investment grade ratings. The fair value of our interest rate swap contract assets, including accrued interest and excluding credit risk adjustments, was as follows:

Transactions

2020 Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2020, (i) we acquired 94 thousand OP Units in exchange for issuing an equal number of shares of our common stock to the holders of the OP Units, and (ii) we acquired 150 OP Units for $7 thousand in cash.

2019 Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2019, (i) we acquired 222 thousand OP Units in exchange for issuing an equal number of shares of our common stock to the holders of the OP Units, (ii) we acquired 19 thousand OP Units and fully-vested LTIP Units for $734 thousand in cash, and (iii) we issued 4.9 million shares of our common stock under our ATM program for net proceeds of $201.0 million.

We purchased a property on June 7, 2019 for a contract price of $365.1 million, which we subsequently contributed to one of our consolidated JVs on June 28, 2019. We manage and own a twenty percent capital interest in the JV. The acquisition and related working capital was funded with (i) a secured, non-recourse $160.0 million interest-only loan scheduled to mature in June 2029, which was assumed by the consolidated JV to which we contributed the property, (ii) a $44.0 million capital contribution by us to the JV, and (iii) a $176.0 million capital contribution by Noncontrolling interests in the JV. See Note 3 for more information regarding the property acquisition and Note 8 for more information regarding the loan.

On November 21, 2019, we acquired an additional 16.3% of the equity in one of our previously unconsolidated Funds, Fund X, in exchange for $76.9 million in cash and 332 thousand OP Units valued at $14.4 million, which increased our ownership in the Fund to 89.0%. See Note 3 for more information regarding the consolidation of the JV and note 6 for more information regarding our Funds.

2018 Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2018, we (i) acquired 629 thousand OP Units in exchange for issuing an equal number of shares of our common stock to the holders of the OP Units, (ii) acquired 3 thousand OP Units for $108 thousand in cash and (iii) issued 21 thousand shares of our common stock for the exercise of 49 thousand stock options on a net settlement basis (net of the exercise price and related taxes).

Noncontrolling Interests

Our noncontrolling interests consist of interests in our Operating Partnership and consolidated JVs which are not owned by us. Noncontrolling interests in our Operating Partnership owned 30.1 million OP Units and fully-vested LTIP Units, and represented approximately 14.6% of our Operating Partnership's total outstanding interests as of December 31, 2020 when we owned 175.5 million OP Units (to match our 175.5 million shares of outstanding common stock).

A share of our common stock, an OP Unit and an LTIP Unit (once vested and booked up) have essentially the same economic characteristics, sharing equally in the distributions from our Operating Partnership.  Investors who own OP Units have the right to cause our Operating Partnership to acquire their OP Units for an amount of cash per unit equal to the market value of one share of our common stock at the date of acquisition, or, at our election, exchange their OP Units for shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. LTIP Units have been granted to our employees and non-employee directors as part of their compensation. These awards generally vest over a service period and once vested can generally be converted to OP Units provided our stock price increases by more than a specified hurdle.

(1)     Outstanding OP Units and vested LTIP Units are not included in the denominator in calculating diluted EPS, even though they may be exchanged under certain conditions for common stock on a one-for-one basis, because their associated net income (equal on a per unit basis to the Net income per common share - diluted) was already deducted in calculating Net income attributable to common stockholders. Accordingly, any exchange would not have any effect on diluted EPS. The table below presents the weighted average OP Units and vested LTIP Units outstanding for the respective periods:

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock Incentive Plans

The Douglas Emmett, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, our stock incentive plan (our "2016 Plan"), permits us to make grants of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, deferred stock awards, restricted stock awards, dividend equivalent rights and other stock-based awards. On May 28, 2020, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2016 Plan to, among other things, increase the number of common shares for future awards by 9.5 million. We had an aggregate of 9.1 million shares available for grant as of December 31, 2020. Awards such as LTIP Units, deferred stock and restricted stock, which deliver the full value of the underlying shares, are counted against the Plan limits as two shares. Awards such as stock options and stock appreciation rights are counted as one share. The number of shares reserved under our 2016 Plan is also subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend or other change in our capitalization. Shares of stock underlying any awards that are forfeited, canceled or otherwise terminated (other than by exercise) are added back to the shares of stock available for future issuance under the 2016 Plan. For options exercised, our policy is to issue common stock on a net settlement basis - net of the exercise price and related taxes.

Until it expired in 2016, we made grants under our 2006 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (our "2006 Plan"), which was substantially similar to our 2016 Plan. No further awards may be granted under our 2006 Plan, although awards granted under the 2006 Plan in the past and which are still outstanding will continue to be governed by the terms of our 2006 Plan.

Our 2016 and 2006 Plans (the "Plans") are administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors. The compensation committee may interpret our Plans and make all determinations necessary or desirable for the administration of our Plans. The committee has full power and authority to select the participants to whom awards will be granted, to make any combination of awards to participants, to accelerate the exercisability or vesting of any award and to determine the specific terms and conditions of each award, subject to the provisions of our 2016 Plan. All officers, employees, directors and other key personnel (including consultants and prospective employees) are eligible to participate in our 2016 Plan.

We have made certain awards in the form of a separate series of units of limited partnership interests in our Operating Partnership called LTIP Units, which can be granted either as free-standing awards or in tandem with other awards under our 2016 Plan. Our LTIP Units are valued by reference to the value of our common stock at the time of grant, and are subject to such conditions and restrictions as the compensation committee may determine, including continued employment or service, and/or achievement of pre-established performance goals, financial metrics and other objectives. Once vested, LTIP Units can generally be converted to OP Units on a one for one basis, provided our stock price increases by more than a specified hurdle.

Employee Awards

We grant stock-based compensation in the form of LTIP Units as a part of our annual incentive compensation to various employees each year, a portion which vests at the date of grant, and the remainder which vests in three equal annual installments over the three calendar years following the grant date. Compensation expense for LTIP Units which are not vested at the grant date is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award. We have also made long-term grants in the form of LTIP Units to certain employees, which generally vest in equal annual installments over four to five calendar years following the grant date, and some of these grants include a portion which vests at the date of grant. In aggregate, we granted 1.1 million, 802 thousand, and 898 thousand LTIP Units to employees during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Non-Employee Director Awards

As annual fees for their services, each of our non-employee directors receives a grant of LTIP Units that vests on a quarterly basis during the year the services are rendered, which is the calendar year following the grant date. We granted 55 thousand, 38 thousand, and 37 thousand LTIP Units to our non-employee directors during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Compensation Expense

At December 31, 2020, the total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for unvested LTIP Unit awards was $19.3 million, which will be recognized over a weighted-average term of two years. The table below presents our stock-based compensation expense:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our estimates of the fair value of financial instruments were determined using available market information and widely used valuation methods.  Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and determine an estimated fair value.  The use of different market assumptions or valuation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair values. The FASB fair value framework hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity, and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market-based inputs.  The hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 - inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  

Level 2 - inputs are observable either directly or indirectly for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.  

Level 3 - inputs are unobservable assumptions generated by the reporting entity

As of December 31, 2020, we did not have any fair value estimates of financial instruments using Level 3 inputs.

Financial instruments disclosed at fair value

Short term financial instruments: The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, revolving credit line, interest payable, accounts payable, security deposits and dividends payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Secured notes payable: See Note 8 for the details of our secured notes payable. We estimate the fair value of our consolidated secured notes payable by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the principal and interest payments for each secured note payable. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs, assumes that the loans will be outstanding through maturity, and includes any maturity extension options. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of our secured notes payable (excluding our revolving credit facility), the carrying value includes unamortized loan premium and excludes unamortized deferred loan fees:

(In thousands)	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Fair value	$	4,719,462	$	4,682,305
Carrying value	$	4,706,979	$	4,660,005

Ground lease liability: See Note 4 for the details of our ground lease. We estimate the fair value of our ground lease liability by calculating the present value of the future lease payments disclosed in Note 4 using our incremental borrowing rate. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of our ground lease liability:

(In thousands)	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Fair value	$	11,865	$	12,218
Carrying value	$	10,871	$	10,882

Financial instruments measured at fair value

Derivative instruments: See Note 10 for the details of our derivatives. We present our derivatives in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, on a gross basis, excluding accrued interest.  We estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the expected future cash flows of each derivative.  The calculation incorporates the contractual terms of the derivatives, observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs, and credit risk adjustments to reflect the counterparty's as well as our own nonperformance risk. Our derivatives are not subject to master netting arrangements.  The table below presents the estimated fair value of our derivatives:

(In thousands)	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Derivative Assets:
Fair value - consolidated derivatives(1)	$	—	$	22,381
Fair value - unconsolidated Fund's derivative(2)	$	—	$	889
Derivative Liabilities:
Fair value - consolidated derivatives(1)	$	214,016	$	54,616
Fair value - unconsolidated Fund's derivative(2)	$	137	$	—

___________________________________________________________________________________

(1)    Consolidated derivatives, which include 100%, not our pro-rata share, of our consolidated JVs' derivatives, are included in interest rate contracts in our consolidated balance sheets. The fair values exclude accrued interest which is included in interest payable in the consolidated balance sheets.

(2)    The amounts reflect 100%, not our pro-rata share, of our unconsolidated Fund's derivative. Our pro-rata share of the amounts related to the unconsolidated Fund's derivative is included in our Investment in unconsolidated Funds in our consolidated balance sheets. See "Guarantees" in Note 17 regarding our unconsolidated Fund's debt and derivative.

Segment Reporting

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for operational decision-making purposes.  We operate in two business segments: (i) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate and (ii) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate.  The services for our office segment primarily include rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental.  The services for our multifamily segment include rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. Asset information by segment is not reported because we do not use this measure to assess performance or make decisions to allocate resources. Therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments.  General and administrative expenses and interest expense are not included in segment profit as our internal reporting addresses these items on a corporate level.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business.  Excluding ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business, we are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that we believe would reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Concentration of Risk

Tenant Receivables

We are subject to credit risk with respect to our tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables related to our tenant leases. Our tenants' ability to honor the terms of their respective leases remains dependent upon economic, regulatory and social factors. We seek to minimize our credit risk from our tenant leases by: (i) targeting smaller, more affluent tenants, from a diverse mix of industries, (ii) performing credit evaluations of prospective tenants, and (iii) obtaining security deposits or letters of credit from our tenants. During the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, no tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. See Note 2 for the details of our charges to revenue for uncollectible amounts and allowances for tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables.

Geographic Risk

All of our properties, including the properties of our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Fund, are located in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii, and we are therefore susceptible to adverse economic and regulatory developments, as well as natural disasters, in those markets.

Swap Counterparty Credit Risk

We are subject to credit risk with respect to our interest rate swap counterparties that we use to manage the risk associated with our floating rate debt. We do not post or receive collateral with respect to our swap transactions. Our swap contracts do not provide for right of offset between derivative contracts. See Note 10 for the details of our interest rate contracts. We seek to minimize our credit risk by entering into agreements with a variety of high quality counterparties with investment grade ratings.

Cash Balances

We have significant cash balances invested in a variety of short-term money market funds that are intended to preserve principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current income. These investments are not insured against loss of principal and there is no guarantee that our investments in these funds will be redeemable at par value. We also have significant cash balances in bank accounts with high quality financial institutions with investment grade ratings.  Interest bearing bank accounts at each U.S. banking institution are insured by the FDIC up to $250 thousand.

Asset Retirement Obligations

Conditional asset retirement obligations represent a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement is conditional on a future event that may or may not be within our control.  A liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation must be recorded if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated.  Environmental site assessments have identified thirty-two buildings in our Consolidated Portfolio which contain asbestos, and would have to be removed in compliance with applicable environmental regulations if these properties are demolished or undergo major renovations.

As of December 31, 2020, the obligations to remove the asbestos from properties which are currently undergoing major renovations, or that we plan to renovate in the future, are not material to our consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2020, the obligations to remove the asbestos from our other properties have indeterminable settlement dates, and we are unable to reasonably estimate the fair value of the associated conditional asset retirement obligations.

Development and Other Contracts

In West Los Angeles, we are building a high-rise apartment building with 376 apartments. In downtown Honolulu, we are converting a 25 story, 490,000 square foot office tower into approximately 500 apartments in phases over a number of years as the office space is vacated.

As of December 31, 2020, we had an aggregate remaining contractual commitment for these and other development projects of approximately $148.2 million. As of December 31, 2020, we had an aggregate remaining contractual commitment for repositionings, capital expenditure projects and tenant improvements of approximately $23.2 million.

Guarantees

We have made certain environmental and other limited indemnities and guarantees covering customary non-recourse carve- outs for our unconsolidated Fund's debt. We have also guaranteed the related swap. Our Fund has agreed to indemnify us for any amounts that we would be required to pay under these agreements. As of December 31, 2020, all of the obligations under the related debt and swap agreements have been performed in accordance with the terms of those agreements. The table below summarizes our Fund's debt as of December 31, 2020. The amounts represent 100% (not our pro-rata share) of the amounts related to our Fund:

Fund(1)	Loan Maturity Date	Principal Balance (In thousands)		Variable Interest Rate	Swap Fixed Interest Rate	Swap Maturity Date
Partnership X(2)(3)	3/1/2023	$	110,000	LIBOR + 1.40%	2.30%	3/1/2021

___________________________________________________

(1)See Note 6 for more information regarding our unconsolidated Fund.

(2)Floating rate term loan, swapped to fixed, which is secured by two properties and requires monthly payments of interest only, with the outstanding principal due upon maturity. As of December 31, 2020, assuming a zero-percent LIBOR interest rate during the remaining life of the swap, the maximum future payments under the swap agreement were $0.2 million.

(3)Loan agreement includes a zero-percent LIBOR floor. The corresponding swap does not include such a floor.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Acquisitions and Initial Consolidation of VIEs

Acquisitions and Initial Consolidation of VIEs

We account for property acquisitions as asset acquisitions, and include the acquired properties' results of operations in our results of operations from the respective acquisition date. We allocate the purchase price for asset acquisitions, which includes the capitalized transaction costs, and for the properties upon the initial consolidation of VIEs not determined to be a business, on a relative fair value basis to: (i) land, (ii) buildings and improvements, (iii) tenant improvements and identifiable intangible assets such as in-place at-market leases, (iv) acquired above- and below-market ground and tenant leases (including for renewal options), and if applicable (v) assumed debt and (vi) assumed interest rate swaps, based upon comparable sales for land, and the income approach using our estimates of expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques, which include but are not limited to, our estimates of rental rates, revenue growth rates, capitalization rates and discount rates, for other assets and liabilities. We estimate the relative fair values of the tangible assets on an ‘‘as-if-vacant’’ basis. The estimated relative fair value of acquired in-place at-market leases are the estimated costs to lease the property to the occupancy level at the date of acquisition, including the fair value of leasing commissions and legal costs. We evaluate the time period over which we expect such occupancy level to be achieved and include an estimate of the net operating costs (primarily real estate taxes, insurance and utilities) incurred during the lease-up period. Above- and below-market ground and tenant leases are recorded as an asset or liability based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid or received pursuant to the in-place ground or tenant leases, respectively, and our estimate of the fair market rental rates for the corresponding in-place leases, over the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. Assumed debt is recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments and current interest rates. See Note 3 for our property acquisition disclosures.

Depreciation

Depreciation

Buildings and improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis using an estimated life of forty years for buildings and fifteen years for improvements, and are carried on our balance sheet, offset by the related accumulated depreciation and any impairment charges, until they are sold. Tenant improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the life of the related lease, with any remaining balance depreciated in the period of any early lease termination. Acquired in-place leases are amortized on a straight line basis over the weighted average remaining term of the acquired in-place leases, and are carried on our balance sheet, offset by the related accumulated amortization, until the related building is either sold or impaired. Lease intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related lease term, with any remaining balance amortized in the period of any early lease termination. Acquired above- and below-market tenant leases are amortized/accreted on a straight line basis over the life of the related lease and recorded as either an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to rental revenue. Acquired above- and below-market ground leases, from which we earn ground rent income, are amortized/accreted on a straight line basis over the life of the related lease and recorded either as an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to rental revenue. Acquired above- and below-market ground leases, for which we incur ground rent expense, are accreted/ amortized over the life of the related lease and recorded either as an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to expense.

We accelerate depreciation for affected assets when we renovate our buildings or existing buildings are impacted by new developments. When assets are sold or retired, their cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from our balance sheet with the resulting gains or losses, if any, reflected in our results of operations for the respective period.

Real Estate Held for Sale

Real Estate Held for SaleProperties are classified as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets when they meet certain requirements, including the approval of the sale of the property, the marketing of the property for sale, and our expectation that the sale will likely occur within the next 12 months. Properties classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell, and we also cease to depreciate the property.

Dispositions

DispositionsRecognition of gains or losses from sales of investments in real estate requires that we meet certain revenue recognition criteria and transfer control of the real estate to the buyer. The gain or loss recorded is measured as the difference between the sales price, less costs to sell, and the carrying value of the real estate when we sell it. See Note 3 for our property disposition disclosures.

Cost capitalization

Cost capitalizationCosts incurred during the period of construction of real estate are capitalized. Cost capitalization of development and redevelopment activities begins during the predevelopment period, which we define as the activities that are necessary to begin the development of the property.  We cease capitalization upon substantial completion of the project, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity.  We also cease capitalization when activities necessary to prepare the property for its intended use have been suspended. Capitalized costs are included in Investment in real estate, gross, in our consolidated balance sheets. Demolition expenses and repairs and maintenance are recorded as expense when incurred.

Ground Leases

Ground LeasesWe account for our ground lease, for which we are the lessee, in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a prospective basis. Upon adoption of the ASU, we continued to classify the lease as an operating lease, and we recognized a right-of-use asset for the land and a lease liability for the future lease payments of $10.9 million. We calculated the carrying value of the right-of-use asset and lease liability by discounting the future lease payments using our incremental borrowing rate. We adjusted the right-of-use asset carrying value for a related above-market ground lease liability of $3.4 million, which reduced the carrying value of the asset to $7.5 million. We continued to recognize the lease payments as expense, which is included in Office expenses in our consolidated statements of operations.

Investment in Unconsolidated Funds

Investment in Unconsolidated Funds

We account for our investments in unconsolidated Funds using the equity method because we have significant influence but not control over the Funds. Under the equity method, we initially record our investment in our Funds at cost, which includes acquisition basis difference and additional basis for capital raising costs, and subsequently adjust the investment balance for: (i) our share of the Funds net income or losses, (ii) our share of the Funds other comprehensive income or losses, (iii) our cash contributions to the Fund and (iv) our distributions received from the Fund. We remove our investment in unconsolidated Funds from our consolidated balance sheet when we sell our interest in the Funds or the Funds qualify for consolidation.

Our investment in unconsolidated Funds is included in Investment in unconsolidated Funds in the consolidated balance sheets and our share of net income or losses from the Funds is included in Income from unconsolidated Funds in the consolidated statements of operations. Our share of the Funds accumulated other comprehensive income or losses is included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in our consolidated balance sheets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived AssetsWe periodically assess whether there has been any impairment in the carrying value of our properties and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable. An impairment charge would be recorded if events or changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in the fair value below the carrying value has occurred and the decline is other-than-temporary. Recoverability of the carrying value of our properties is measured by a comparison of the carrying value to the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the property. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the property's carrying value and its fair value based on the estimated discounted future cash flows.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider short-term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Rental Revenue and Tenant Recoveries

Rental Revenues and Tenant Recoveries

We account for our rental revenues and tenant recoveries in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. Topic 842 did not significantly change our accounting policy for recognizing rental revenues and tenant recoveries, and we adopted a practical expedient which allows us to account for our rental revenues and tenant recoveries on a combined basis. Rental revenues and tenant recoveries from tenant leases are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations. All of our tenant leases are classified as operating leases. For lease terms exceeding one year, rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Tenant receivables consist primarily of amounts due for contractual lease payments and reimbursements of common area maintenance expenses, property taxes, and other costs recoverable from tenants. Deferred rent receivables represent the amount by which the cumulative straight-line rental revenue recorded to date exceeds the cumulative cash rents billed to date under the lease agreement. Rental revenue from month-to-month leases or leases with no scheduled rent increases or other adjustments is recognized on a monthly basis when earned.

Lease termination fees, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, are recognized on a straight line basis over the new remaining lease term when the related lease is canceled. We recognized lease termination revenue of $1.0 million, $0.5 million and $1.6 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Tenant improvements constructed, and owned by us, and reimbursed by tenants are recorded as our assets, and the related revenue, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, is recognized over the related lease term. We recognized revenue for reimbursement of tenant improvements of $5.9 million, $5.8 million and $3.5 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Estimated tenant recoveries for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, are recognized as revenue on a gross basis in the period that the recoverable expenses are incurred. Subsequent to year-end, we perform reconciliations on a lease-by-lease basis and bill or credit each tenant for any differences between the estimated expenses we billed to the tenant and the actual expenses incurred.

In accordance with Topic 842, we perform an assessment as to whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement is deemed probable of collection. This assessment involves using a methodology that requires judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made, including tenant specific factors, specific industry conditions, and general economic trends and conditions.

For leases where we have concluded it is probable that we will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, we continue to record lease income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases where we have concluded that it is not probable that we will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, we limit the lease income to the lesser of the income recognized on a straight-line basis or cash basis. If our conclusion of collectibility changes, we will record the difference between the lease income that would have been recognized on a straight-line basis and cash basis as a current-period adjustment to rental revenues and tenant recoveries. We write-off tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables as a charge against rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period we conclude that substantially all of the lease payments are not probable of collection. If we subsequently collect amounts that were previously written off then the amounts collected are recorded as an increase to our rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period they are collected. Charges for uncollectible amounts, related to tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables, which for the year ended December 31, 2020 were primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced our office revenues by $41.0 million and $2.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Before the adoption of Topic 842, we presented our tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables net of allowances on our consolidated balance sheets. We considered many factors when evaluating the level of allowances necessary, including evaluations of individual tenant receivables, historical loss activity, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. We generally obtain letters of credit or security deposits from our tenants.

Office Parking Revenues

Office Parking RevenuesOffice parking revenues, which are included in office Parking and other income in our consolidated statements of operations, are within the scope of Topic 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". Our lease contracts generally make a specified number of parking spaces available to the tenant, and we bill and recognize parking revenues on a monthly basis in accordance with the lease agreements, generally using the monthly parking rates in effect at the time of billing.

Insurance Recoveries

Insurance Recoveries

The amount by which insurance recoveries related to property damage exceeds any losses recognized from that damage are recorded as other income when payment has been received or confirmation of the amount of proceeds has been received.

In January 2020, there was a fire in one of our residential property buildings. We carry comprehensive liability and property insurance covering all of the properties in our portfolio under blanket insurance policies to cover these kinds of losses. During the year ended December 31, 2020 we recorded $3.9 million of business interruption revenues, which is included in Multifamily rental - Parking and other income in the consolidated statements of operations, and a gain related to property damage of $13.1 million, which is included in Other income in the consolidated statements of operations.

Interest Income

Interest IncomeInterest income from our short-term money market fund investments is recognized on an accrual basis. Interest income is included in other income in the consolidated statements of operations.

Leasing Costs

We account for our leasing costs in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. In accordance with Topic 842, we capitalize initial direct costs of a lease, which are costs that would not have been incurred had the lease not been executed. Costs to negotiate a lease that would have been incurred regardless of whether the lease was executed, such as employee salaries, are not considered to be initial direct costs, and are expensed as incurred. Prior to January 1, 2019, we capitalized most of our leasing costs.

Loan Costs

Loan Costs

Loan costs incurred directly with the issuance of secured notes payable and revolving credit facilities are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the respective loan or credit facility term. Any unamortized amounts are written off upon early repayment of the secured notes payable, and the related cost and accumulated amortization are removed from our consolidate balance sheets.

To the extent that a refinancing is considered an exchange of debt with the same lender, we account for loan costs based upon whether the old debt is determined to be modified or extinguished for accounting purposes. If the old debt is determined to be modified then we (i) continue to defer and amortize any unamortized deferred loan costs associated with the old debt at the time of the modification over the new term of the modified debt, (ii) defer and amortize the lender costs incurred in connection with the modification over the new term of the modified debt, and (iii) expense all other costs associated with the modification. If the old debt is determined to be extinguished then we (i) write off any unamortized deferred loan costs associated with the extinguished debt at the time of the extinguishment and remove the related cost and accumulated amortization from our balance sheet, (ii) expense all lender costs associated with the extinguishment, and (iii) defer and amortize all other costs incurred directly in connection with the extinguishment over the term of the new debt.

In circumstances where we modify or exchange our revolving credit facility with the same lender, we account for the loan costs based upon whether the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is (a) equal to or greater than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, or (b) less than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement (borrowing capacity is defined as the product of the remaining term and the maximum available credit). If the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is greater than or equal to the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, then we (i) continue to defer and amortize the unamortized deferred loan costs from the old arrangement over the term of the new arrangement and (ii) defer all lender and other costs incurred directly in connection with the new arrangement over the term of the new arrangement. If the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is less than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, then we (i) write off any unamortized deferred loan costs at the time of the transaction related to the old arrangement in proportion to the decrease in the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement and (ii) defer all lender and other costs incurred directly in connection with the new arrangement over the term of the new arrangement.

Deferred loan costs are presented on the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of our secured notes payable and revolving credit facility. All loan costs expensed and deferred loan costs amortized are included in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations.

Debt Discounts and Premiums

Debt Discounts and Premiums

Debt discounts and premiums related to recording debt assumed in connection with property acquisitions at fair value are generally amortized and accreted, respectively, over the remaining term of the related loan, which approximates the effective interest method. The amortization/accretion is included in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations.

Derivative Contracts

Derivative Contracts

We make use of interest rate swap contracts to manage the risk associated with changes in interest rates on our floating-rate debt. When we enter into a floating-rate term loan, we generally enter into an interest rate swap agreement for the equivalent principal amount, for a period covering the majority of the loan term, which effectively converts our floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis during that time. We do not speculate in derivatives and we do not make use of any other derivative instruments.

When entering into derivative agreements, we generally elect to designate them as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Changes in fair value of hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI), which is a component of equity outside of earnings. For our Funds' hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges, we record our share of the changes in fair value of the hedging instrument in AOCI. Amounts recorded in AOCI related to our designated hedges are reclassified to Interest expense as interest payments are made on the hedged floating rate debt. Amounts reported in AOCI related to our Funds' hedges are reclassified to Income from unconsolidated Funds, as interest payments are made by our Funds on their hedged floating rate debt.

We present our derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value on a gross basis. Our share of the fair value of our Funds' derivatives is included in our investment in unconsolidated Funds on our consolidated balance sheet.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based CompensationWe account for stock-based compensation, including stock options and LTIP Units, using the fair value method of accounting. The estimated fair value of stock options and LTIP Units, net of estimated forfeitures, is amortized over the vesting period, which is based upon service.

EPS

EPSWe calculate basic EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective period. We calculate diluted EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive instruments outstanding during the respective period using the treasury stock method. Unvested LTIP Units contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and we account for them as participating securities and include them in the computation of basic and diluted EPS using the two-class method.

Segment Information

Segment InformationSegment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for operational decision-making purposes. We operate two business segments: the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate, and the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate. The services for our office segment include primarily rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include primarily rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2006. To qualify as a REIT, we are required (among other things) to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and meet various other requirements imposed by the Code relating to matters such as operating results, asset holdings, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Provided that we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and are unable to avail ourselves of certain savings provisions set forth in the Code, all of our taxable income would be subject to federal income tax at the regular corporate rate, including any applicable alternative minimum tax for taxable years prior to 2018.

We have elected to treat one of our subsidiaries as a TRS, which generally may engage in any business, including the provision of customary or non-customary services to our tenants. A TRS is treated as a regular corporation and is subject to federal income tax and applicable state income and franchise taxes at regular corporate rates.  Our TRSs did not have significant tax provisions or deferred income tax items for 2020, 2019 or 2018. Our subsidiaries (other than our TRS), including our Operating Partnership, are partnerships, disregarded entities, QRSs or REITs, as applicable, for federal income tax purposes. Under applicable federal and state income tax rules, the allocated share of net income or loss from disregarded entities or flow-through entities is reportable in the income tax returns of the respective owners. Accordingly, no income tax provision is included in our consolidated financial statements for these entities.

New Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Pronouncements

Changes to US GAAP are implemented by the FASB in the form of ASUs.  We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Other than the ASUs discussed below, the FASB has not issued any other ASUs that we expect to be applicable and have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASUs Adopted

ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326 - "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses")

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", which amends "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses" (Topic 326). The ASU provides guidance for measuring credit losses on financial instruments. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those years, which for us was the first quarter of 2020. The amendments in the ASU should be applied on a modified-retrospective basis. The ASU impacts our measurement of credit losses for our Office parking receivables, which were $0.6 million and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and are included in Tenant receivables in our consolidated balance sheets. We adopted the ASU in the first quarter of 2020 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2020-04 (Topic 848 - "Reference Rate Reform")

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform", which contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The practical expedients are optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. We elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients maintains the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. We will continue to evaluate the impact of the ASU and may apply other elections, as applicable, as additional changes in the market occur. Our election to apply the hedge accounting expedients in the first quarter of 2020 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Other Pronouncements

FASB COVID-19 Lease Modification Accounting Relief

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question and answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the existing lease accounting guidance, we would be required to determine on a lease-by-lease basis if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated within the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q&A allows us, if certain criteria are met, to bypass the lease-by-lease analysis, and instead elect to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. We have availed ourselves of the election to avoid performing a lease-by-lease analysis and we have elected to apply the lease modification accounting framework for the lease concessions that meet the criteria.

FASB COVID-19 Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Relief

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question and answer document (the “Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Q&A”) on the application of cash flow hedge accounting guidance to cash flow hedges impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Q&A clarifies that: (i) when cash flow hedge accounting has been discontinued, the delays in the timing of the forecasted transactions related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may be considered rare cases caused by extenuating circumstances outside the control or influence of an entity, thereby allowing amounts deferred in AOCI to remain in AOCI until the forecasted transaction affects earnings, and (ii) missed forecasts, related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, do not need to be considered when determining whether the entity has exhibited a pattern of missing forecasts that would call into question the entity’s ability to accurately predict forecasted transactions and the propriety of using cash flow hedge accounting in the future for similar transactions. The Cash Flow Hedge Accounting Q&A did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our estimates of the fair value of financial instruments were determined using available market information and widely used valuation methods.  Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and determine an estimated fair value.  The use of different market assumptions or valuation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair values. The FASB fair value framework hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity, and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market-based inputs.  The hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 - inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  

Level 2 - inputs are observable either directly or indirectly for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.  

Level 3 - inputs are unobservable assumptions generated by the reporting entity

(1)     Outstanding OP Units and vested LTIP Units are not included in the denominator in calculating diluted EPS, even though they may be exchanged under certain conditions for common stock on a one-for-one basis, because their associated net income (equal on a per unit basis to the Net income per common share - diluted) was already deducted in calculating Net income attributable to common stockholders. Accordingly, any exchange would not have any effect on diluted EPS. The table below presents the weighted average OP Units and vested LTIP Units outstanding for the respective periods:
