The Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), is currently traded on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “CMCT”, and on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (the “TASE”) under the ticker symbol “CMCT-L.” The Company’s Series L preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Series L Preferred Stock”), is currently traded on Nasdaq and on the TASE, in each case under the ticker symbol “CMCTP.” The Company has authorized for issuance 900,000,000 shares of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”).

The Company filed Articles of Amendment (the “Reverse Stock Split Amendment”) to effectuate a one-for-three reverse stock split of the Company’s Common Stock, effective on September 3, 2019 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split Amendment, every three shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split were converted into one share of Common Stock, par value $0.003 per share. In connection with the Reverse Split Amendment, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to revert the par value of the Common Stock issued and outstanding from $0.003 per share to $0.001 per share, effective as of September 3, 2019, following the effective time of the Reverse Split Amendment. All Common Stock and per share of Common Stock amounts set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the Reverse Stock Split, unless otherwise stated.

Since June 2022, the Company has been conducting a continuous public offering with respect to shares of its Series A1 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share with an initial stated value of $25.00 per share, subject to adjustment.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

For more information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies and estimates, please refer to “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” contained in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 16, 2022.

Interim Financial Information—The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared by the Company’s management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Certain information and note disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying financial information reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of the Company’s management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 given, among other things, the uncertain impact of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) on the Company’s operations during the remainder of the year. The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, included in the 2021 Form 10-K.

Principles of Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has controlling interests in an entity and the requirement to consolidate the accounts in that entity, the Company analyzes its investments in real estate in accordance with standards set forth in GAAP to determine whether they are variable interest entities (“VIEs”), and if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company’s judgment with respect to its level of influence or control over an entity and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE involves

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2022 (Unaudited) – (Continued)

consideration of various factors, including the form of the Company’s ownership interest, the Company’s voting interest, the size of the Company’s investment (including loans), and the Company’s ability to participate in major policy-making decisions. The Company’s ability to correctly assess its influence or control over an entity affects the presentation of these investments in real estate on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has determined that the trust formed for the benefit of the note holders (the “Trust”) for the securitization of the unguaranteed portion of certain of the Company’s SBA 7(a) loans receivable is considered a VIE. Applying the consolidation requirements for VIEs, the Company determined that it is the primary beneficiary based on its power to direct activities through its role as servicer and its obligations to absorb losses and right to receive benefits.

Investments in Real Estate—Investments in real estate are stated at depreciated cost. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives as follows:

Buildings and improvements	15 - 40 years
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment	3 - 5 years
Tenant improvements	Lesser of useful life or lease term

The fair value of real estate acquired is recorded to acquired tangible assets, consisting primarily of land, land improvements, building and improvements, tenant improvements, furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of acquired above-market and below-market leases, in-place leases and ground leases, if any, based in each case on their respective fair values. Loan premiums, in the case of above-market rate loans, or loan discounts, in the case of below-market rate loans, are recorded based on the fair value of any loans assumed in connection with acquiring the real estate.

Capitalized Project Costs

The Company capitalizes project costs, including pre-construction costs, interest expense, property taxes, insurance, and other costs directly related and essential to the development, redevelopment, or construction of a project, while activities are ongoing to prepare an asset for its intended use. Costs incurred after a project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use are expensed as incurred. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life, increase capacity, or improve the efficiency of the asset. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Recoverability of Investments in Real Estate—The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its real estate assets may not be recoverable. Investments in real estate are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If, and when, such events or changes in circumstances are present, the recoverability of assets to be held and used requires significant judgment and estimates and is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets and their eventual disposition. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment is recognized to the extent the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. The process for evaluating real estate impairment requires management to make significant assumptions related to certain inputs, including rental rates, lease-up period, occupancy, estimated holding periods, capital expenditures, growth rates, market discount rates and terminal capitalization rates. These inputs require a subjective evaluation based on the specific property and market. Changes in the assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value, the amount of impairment charge, if any, or both. Any asset held for sale is reported at the lower of the asset’s carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. When an asset is identified by the Company as held for sale, the Company will cease recording depreciation and amortization of the asset. The Company did not recognize any impairment of long-lived assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (Note 3).

Investment in Unconsolidated Entity—In February 2022, the Company invested in an unconsolidated joint venture arrangement (the “Unconsolidated Joint Venture”) with a CIM-managed separate account (the “CIM JV Partner”) to purchase an office property in Los Angeles, California for approximately $51.0 million, gross of proration amounts, of which the Company initially contributed approximately $22.4 million and the CIM JV Partner initially contributed the remaining balance. The Company accounts for its approximately 44% investment in the Unconsolidated Joint Venture under the equity method, as it has the ability to exercise significant influence over the investment. The Unconsolidated Joint Venture records its assets and liabilities at fair value. As such, the Company records its share of the Unconsolidated Joint Venture’s unrealized gains or losses as well as its share of the revenues and expenses on a quarterly basis as an adjustment to the carrying value of the investment on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and such share is recognized within the Company’s income from unconsolidated entity on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company recorded income of $260,000 and $380,000 related to its

8

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2022 (Unaudited) – (Continued)

investment in the Unconsolidated Joint Venture during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations.

Revenue Recognition—At the inception of a revenue-producing contract, the Company determines if a contract qualifies as a lease and if not, then as a customer contract. Based on this determination, the appropriate treatment in accordance with GAAP is applied to the contract, including its revenue recognition.

Revenue from leasing activities

The Company operates as a lessor of real estate assets. When the Company enters into a contract or amends an existing contract, the Company evaluates if the contracts meet the definition of a lease using the following criteria:

•One party (lessor) must hold an identified asset;

•The counterparty (lessee) must have the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset throughout the period of the contract; and

•The counterparty (lessee) must have the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period of the contract.

The Company determined that the Company’s contracts with its tenants explicitly identify the premises and that any substitution rights to relocate tenants to other premises within the same building stated in the contract are not substantive. Additionally, so long as payments are made timely under such contracts, the Company’s tenants have the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and can direct how and for what purpose the premises are used to conduct their operations. Therefore, the contracts with the Company’s tenants constitute leases.

All leases are classified as operating leases and minimum rents are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases when collectability is probable and the tenant has taken possession or controls the physical use of the leased asset. The excess of rents recognized over amounts contractually due pursuant to the underlying leases is recorded as deferred rent. If the lease provides for tenant improvements, the Company determines whether the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, are owned by the tenant or the Company. When the Company is the owner of the tenant improvements, the tenant is not considered to have taken physical possession or have control of the physical use of the leased asset until the tenant improvements are substantially completed. When the tenant is considered the owner of the improvements, any tenant improvement allowance that is funded is treated as an incentive. Lease incentives paid to tenants are included in other assets and amortized as a reduction to rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, lease incentives of $4.0 million and $4.0 million, respectively, are presented net of accumulated amortization of $2.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively.

Reimbursements from tenants, consisting of amounts due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance, and other recoverable costs, are recognized as revenue and are included in rental and other property income in the period the expenses are incurred, with the corresponding expenses included in rental and other property operating expense. Tenant reimbursements are recognized and presented on a gross basis when the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified good or service and control that specified good or service before it is transferred to the tenant. The Company has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components as the pattern of revenue recognition does not differ for the two components, and the non-lease component is not the primary component in the Company’s leases.

In addition to minimum rents, certain leases, including the Company’s parking leases with third-party operators, provide for additional rents based upon varying percentages of tenants’ sales in excess of annual minimums. Percentage rent is recognized once lessees’ specified sales targets have been met.

June 30, 2022 (Unaudited) – (Continued)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized rental income as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Rental and other property income
Fixed lease payments (1)	$	11,561	$	12,066	$	23,184	$	24,510
Variable lease payments (2)	2,633		1,243		5,106		2,148
Rental and other property income	$	14,194	$	13,309	$	28,290	$	26,658

______________________

(1)Fixed lease payments include contractual rents under lease agreements with tenants recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, including amortization of acquired above-market leases, below-market leases and lease incentives.

(2)Variable lease payments include expense reimbursements billed to tenants and percentage rent, net of bad debt expense from the Company’s operating leases plus cash payments from tenants deemed not probable of collection.

Collectability of Lease-Related Receivables

The Company continually reviews whether collection of lease-related receivables, including any straight-line rent, and current and future operating expense reimbursements from tenants is probable. The determination of whether collectability is probable takes into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. Upon the determination that the collectability of a receivable is not probable, the Company will record a reduction to rental and other property income and a decrease in the outstanding receivable. Revenue from leases where collection is deemed to be not probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectability becomes probable. Management’s estimate of the collectability of lease-related receivables is based on the best information available at the time of estimate. The Company does not use a general reserve approach. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had identified certain tenants where collection was no longer considered probable and decreased outstanding receivables by $314,000 and $579,000, respectively, across all operating leases.

Revenue from lending activities

Interest income included in interest and other income is comprised of interest earned on loans and the Company’s short-term investments and the accretion of loan discounts. Interest income on loans is accrued as earned with the accrual of interest suspended when the related loan becomes a Non-Accrual Loan (as defined below).

Revenue from hotel activities

The Company recognizes revenue from hotel activities separate from its leasing activities. At contract inception, the Company assesses the goods and services promised in its contracts with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services) that is distinct. To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all of the goods or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. Various performance obligations of hotel revenues can be categorized as follows:

•cancellable and noncancelable room revenues from reservations and

•ancillary services including facility usage and food or beverage.

Cancellable reservations represent a single performance obligation of providing lodging services at the hotel. The Company satisfies its performance obligation and recognizes revenues associated with these reservations over time as services are rendered to the customer. The Company satisfies its performance obligation and recognizes revenues associated with noncancelable reservations at the earlier of (i) the date on which the customer cancels the reservation or (ii) over time as services are rendered to the customer.

Ancillary services include facilities usage and providing food and beverage. The Company satisfies its performance obligation and recognizes revenues associated with these services at a point in time when the good or service is delivered to the customer.

At inception of a contract with a customer for hotel goods and services, the contractual price is equivalent to the transaction price as there are no elements of variable consideration to estimate.

The Company presents hotel revenues net of sales, occupancy, and other taxes.

Below is a reconciliation of the hotel revenue from contracts with customers to the total hotel segment revenue disclosed in Note 16 (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Hotel properties
Hotel income	$	9,107	$	3,130	$	16,511	$	4,862
Rental and other property income	448		334		822		465
Interest and other income	21		13		36		28
Hotel revenues	$	9,576	$	3,477	$	17,369	$	5,355

Tenant recoveries outside of the lease agreements

Tenant recoveries outside of the lease agreements are related to construction projects in which the Company’s tenants have agreed to fully reimburse the Company for all costs related to construction. These services include architectural, permit expediter and construction services. At inception of the contract with the customer, the contractual price is equivalent to the transaction price as there are no elements of variable consideration to estimate. While these individual services are distinct, in the context of the arrangement with the customer, all of these services are bundled together and represent a single package of construction services requested by the customer. The Company satisfies its performance obligation and recognizes revenues associated with these services over time as the construction is completed. No such amounts were recognized for tenant recoveries outside of the lease agreements for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. As of June 30, 2022, there were no remaining performance obligations associated with tenant recoveries outside of the lease agreements.

Loans Receivable—The Company’s loans receivable are carried at their unamortized principal balance less unamortized acquisition discounts and premiums, retained loan discounts and loan loss reserves. Acquisition discounts or premiums, origination fees and retained loan discounts are amortized as a component of interest and other income using the effective interest method over the life of the respective loans, or on a straight-line basis when it approximates the effective interest method. All loans were originated pursuant to programs sponsored by the Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The programs consist of loans originated under the SBA 7(a) Small Business Loan Program (the “SBA 7(a) Program”) and, commencing with the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”).

Pursuant to the SBA 7(a) Program, the Company sells the portion of the loan that is guaranteed by the SBA. Upon sale of the SBA guaranteed portion of the loans, which are accounted for as sales, the unguaranteed portion of the loan retained by the Company is recorded at fair value and a discount is recorded as a reduction in basis of the retained portion of the loan. Unamortized retained loan discounts were $9.8 million and $9.6 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

At the closing of the merger in 2014 between CIM Urban REIT, LLC (“CIM REIT”), an affiliate of CIM Group, and certain of its subsidiaries and PMC Commercial Trust, the predecessor to the Company, the carrying value of the Company’s loans was adjusted to estimated fair market value and acquisition discounts of $33.9 million were recorded, which are being accreted to interest and other income using the effective interest method. Acquisition discounts of $321,000 and $381,000 remained as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

A loan receivable is generally classified as non-accrual (a “Non-Accrual Loan”) if (i) it is past due as to payment of principal or interest for a period of 60 days or more, (ii) any portion of the loan is classified as doubtful or is charged-off or (iii) the repayment in full of the principal and or interest is in doubt. Generally, loans are charged-off when management determines that the Company will be unable to collect any remaining amounts due under the loan agreement, either through liquidation of collateral or other means. Interest income, included in interest and other income, on a Non-Accrual Loan is recognized on the cost recovery basis.

Loan Loss Reserves—On a quarterly basis, and more frequently if indicators exist, the Company evaluates the collectability of its loans receivable. The Company’s evaluation of collectability involves significant judgment, estimates, and a

11

CREATIVE MEDIA & COMMUNITY TRUST CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2022 (Unaudited) – (Continued)

review of the ability of the borrower to make principal and interest payments, the underlying collateral and the borrowers’ business models and future operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded no net impairment losses on its loans receivable. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded a net recovery of $88,000 and a net impairment of $4,000, respectively, on its loans receivable. There were no material loans receivable subject to credit risk which were considered to be impaired as of June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. The Company considers a loan to be impaired when the Company does not expect to collect all of the contractual interest and principal payments as scheduled in the loan agreements. The Company also establishes a general loan loss reserve when available information indicates that it is probable a loss has occurred based on the carrying value of the portfolio and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required in determining the general loan loss reserve, including estimates of the likelihood of default and the estimated fair value of the collateral. The general loan loss reserve includes those loans, which may have negative characteristics which have not yet become known to the Company. In addition to the reserves established on loans not considered impaired that have been evaluated under a specific evaluation, the Company establishes the general loan loss reserve using a consistent methodology to determine a loss percentage to be applied to loan balances. These loss percentages are based on many factors, primarily cumulative and recent loss history and general economic conditions. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had loan loss reserves of $954,000 and $943,000, respectively.

Deferred Rent Receivable and Charges—Deferred rent receivable and charges consist of deferred rent, deferred leasing costs, deferred offering costs (Note 10) and other deferred costs. Deferred leasing costs, which represent lease commissions and other direct costs associated with the acquisition of tenants, are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. Deferred offering costs represent direct costs incurred in connection with the Company’s offerings of Series A1 Preferred Stock (as defined below), Series A Preferred Units (as defined below), and, after January 2020, Series A Preferred Stock (as defined below) and Series D Preferred Stock (as defined below), excluding costs specifically identifiable to a closing, such as commissions, dealer-manager fees, and other offering fees and expenses. Generally, for a specific issuance of securities, issuance-specific offering costs are recorded as a reduction of proceeds raised on the issuance date and offering costs incurred but not directly related to a specifically identifiable closing of a security are deferred. Deferred offering costs are first allocated to each issuance of a security on a pro-rata basis equal to the ratio of the number of securities issued in a given issuance to the maximum number of securities that are expected to be issued in the related offering. In the case of the Series A Preferred Units, which were issued prior to February 2020, the issuance-specific offering costs and the deferred offering costs allocated to such issuance were further allocated to the Series A Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Warrants issued in such issuance based on the relative fair value of the instruments on the date of issuance. The deferred offering costs allocated to the Series A Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Warrants are reductions to temporary equity and permanent equity, respectively.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, deferred rent receivable and charges consist of the following (in thousands):

	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Deferred rent receivable	$	21,260	$	20,870
Deferred leasing costs, net of accumulated amortization of $9,558 and $8,971, respectively	8,099		8,453
Deferred offering costs	6,624		6,281
Other deferred costs	491		491
Deferred rent receivable and charges, net	$	36,474	$	36,095

Redeemable Preferred Stock—Beginning on the date of original issuance of any given shares of Series A1 Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share (“Series A1 Preferred Stock”), with an initial stated value of $25.00 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Series A1 Preferred Stock Stated Value”), Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”) with an initial stated value of $25.00 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Series A Preferred Stock Stated Value”), or Series D Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series D Preferred Stock”), with an initial stated value of $25.00 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Series D Preferred Stock Stated Value”), and from and after the fifth anniversary date of the original issuance of the Series L Preferred Stock, the holder of such shares has the right to require the Company to redeem such shares, subject to certain limitations as discussed in Note 10. The Company records the activity related to the Series A1 Preferred Stock, Series A Preferred Warrants, Series D Preferred Stock and Series L Preferred Stock in permanent equity. In the event a holder of Series A Preferred Stock requests redemption of such shares and such redemption takes place prior to the first anniversary of the date of original issuance, the Company is required to pay such redemption in cash. As a

12

CREATIVE MEDIA & COMMUNITY TRUST CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2022 (Unaudited) – (Continued)

result, the Company recorded issuances of Series A Preferred Stock in temporary equity. On the first anniversary of the date of original issuance of a particular share of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company reclassifies such share of Series A Preferred Stock from temporary equity to permanent equity because the feature giving rise to temporary equity classification, the requirement to satisfy redemption requests in cash, lapses on the first anniversary date.

Noncontrolling Interests—Noncontrolling interests represent the interests in various properties owned by third-parties.

Restricted Cash—The Company’s mortgage loan and hotel management agreements provide for depositing cash into restricted accounts reserved for capital expenditures, free rent, tenant improvement and leasing commission obligations. Restricted cash also includes cash required to be segregated in connection with certain of the Company’s loans receivable.

Use of Estimates—The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases such estimates on historical experience, information available at the time, and assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and at such time, including the impact of extraordinary events such as COVID-19. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“ASU 2018-19”) in November 2018. Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, ASU No. 2019-05, ASU No. 2019-10, ASU No. 2019-11 and ASU No. 2020-02 to provide additional guidance on the credit losses standard. ASU 2016-13 and the related updates improve financial reporting requiring more timely recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments that are not accounted for at fair value through net income, including loans held-for-investment, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investment in leases and other such commitments. ASU 2016-13 requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 require the Company to measure all expected credit losses based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the financial assets and eliminates the “incurred loss” methodology under current GAAP. ASU 2018-19 clarified that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of Topic 326. Instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for in accordance with ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). For smaller reporting companies, public entities that are not SEC filers, and entities that are not public business entities, the ASU is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has been evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2016-13 on its consolidated financial statements and expects to adopt ASU 2016-13 and the related updates beginning on January 1, 2023.

On April 10, 2020, the FASB issued a question-and-answer document (the “Q&A”) to address stakeholder questions on the application of the lease accounting guidance for lease concessions related to the effects of COVID-19. The lease modification guidance in Topic 842, Leases, (or Topic 840, Leases) would require the Company 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 made pursuant to the enforceable rights and obligations of the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). However, the Q&A provides that the Company may bypass the lease by lease analysis if certain criteria are met, and instead elect to either consistently apply, or consistently not apply, the lease modification framework to groups of leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. The Company has elected not to apply the lease modification guidance to concessions related to the effects of COVID-19 that do not result in a substantial increase in the Company’s rights as lessor, including concessions that result in the total payments required by the modified lease being substantially the same as or less than the total payments required by the original lease.

Total Debt, Net	$	201,145	$	40,000	$	(33,922)	$	593	$	207,816

Mortgage Payable—The mortgage payable is secured by a deed of trust on a property and assignments of rents receivable. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s mortgage payable had a fixed interest rate of 4.14% per annum, with monthly payments of interest only, due on July 1, 2026. The loan is nonrecourse.

Secured Borrowings—Government Guaranteed Loans—Secured borrowings—government guaranteed loans represent sold loans which are treated as secured borrowings because the loan sales did not meet the derecognition criteria provided for in ASC 860-30, Secured Borrowing and Collateral. These loans included cash premiums that are amortized as a reduction to interest expense over the life of the loan using the effective interest method and are fully amortized when the underlying loan is repaid in full. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s secured borrowings-government guaranteed loans included $3.7 million of loans sold for a premium and excess spread, with a variable rate, reset quarterly, based on prime rate with weighted average coupon rate of 4.13%, and $2.6 million of loans sold for an excess spread, with a variable rate, reset quarterly, based on prime rate with weighted average coupon rate of 1.81%.

2018 Revolving Credit Facility—In October 2018, the Company entered into a secured revolving credit facility with a bank syndicate that, as amended, allows the Company to borrow up to $209.5 million, subject to a borrowing base calculation (the “2018 revolving credit facility”). In September 2020, the 2018 revolving credit facility was amended (the “2018 Credit Facility Modification”) to remedy the effect that COVID-19 had on the Company’s ability to borrow under the 2018 revolving credit facility during the period from September 2, 2020 through August 14, 2021 (the “Deferral Period”). The 2018 revolving credit facility bore interest during the Deferral Period at (A) the base rate plus 1.05% or (B) LIBOR plus 2.05% and (ii) bears

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2022 (Unaudited) – (Continued)

interest after the Deferral Period, at (A) the base rate plus 0.55% or (B) LIBOR plus 1.55%. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the variable interest rate was 3.72% and 2.15%, respectively. The 2018 revolving credit facility is also subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.15% or 0.25% depending on the amount of aggregate unused commitments. The 2018 revolving credit facility is secured by deeds of trust on certain of the Company’s properties. The 2018 revolving credit facility contains customary covenants and is not subject to any financial covenants (though the amount the Company may borrow under the 2018 revolving credit facility is determined by a borrowing base calculation). The 2018 revolving credit facility matures in October 2022 and provides for one one-year extension option under certain conditions, including providing notice of the election and paying an extension fee of 0.15% of each lender’s commitment being extended on the effective date of such extension. The Company is working with a bank to refinance the 2018 revolving credit facility prior to its maturity date. There can, however, be no assurance that such refinancing will occur. In the interim, in order to preserve flexibility with respect to the Company’s liquidity, the Company submitted an extension notice in July 2022 to extend the maturity of the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility to October 2023. The extension is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions that the Company expects to be able to satisfy (if the refinancing does not occur). As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $75.0 million and $60.0 million, respectively, was outstanding under the 2018 revolving credit facility, and approximately $125.9 million and $117.6 million, respectively, was available for future borrowings.

2020 Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility—In May 2020, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit facility with a bank (the “2020 unsecured revolving credit facility”) pursuant to which the Company could borrow up to a maximum of $10.0 million. Outstanding advances under the 2020 unsecured revolving credit facility bore interest at the rate of 1.00%. The 2020 unsecured revolving credit facility contains certain customary covenants including a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, as well as certain other conditions. The 2020 unsecured revolving credit facility matured on May 1, 2022.

Junior Subordinated Notes—The Company has junior subordinated notes with a variable interest rate which resets quarterly based on the three-month LIBOR plus 3.25%, with quarterly interest only payments. The junior subordinated balance is due at maturity on March 30, 2035. The junior subordinated notes may be redeemed at par at the Company’s option.

SBA 7(a) Loan-Backed Notes—On May 30, 2018, the Company completed a securitization of the unguaranteed portion of certain of its SBA 7(a) loans receivable with the issuance of $38.2 million of unguaranteed SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes. The SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes are secured by deeds of trust or mortgages and are collateralized solely by the right to receive payments and other recoveries attributable to the unguaranteed portions of certain of the Company’s SBA 7(a) loans receivable. The SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes mature on March 20, 2043, with monthly payments due as payments on the collateralized loans are received. Based on the anticipated repayments of the Company’s collateralized SBA 7(a) loans, at issuance, the Company estimated the weighted average remaining life of the SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes to be approximately two years. The SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes bear interest at the lower of the one-month LIBOR plus 1.40% or the prime rate less 1.08%. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the variable interest rate was 3.00% and 1.49%, respectively. The Company reflects the SBA 7(a) loans receivable as assets on its consolidated balance sheets and the SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes as debt on its consolidated balance sheets. The restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets included funds related to the Company’s SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes of $1.1 million and $1.9 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility—In June 2020, the Company commenced borrowing funds from the Federal Reserve through the PPP Liquidity Facility (the “PPPLF”) to finance all the loans the Company originated under the PPP. Advances under the PPPLF carry an interest rate of 0.35%, are made on a dollar-for-dollar basis based on the amount of loans originated under the PPP and are secured by loans made by the Company under the PPP. The PPPLF contains customary covenants but is not subject to any financial covenants. The maturity date of PPPLF borrowings is the same as the maturity date of the loans pledged to secure the extension of credit, generally two years. At maturity, both principal and accrued interest are due. The maturity date of a PPPLF borrowing will be accelerated if, among other things, the Company has been reimbursed by the SBA for a loan forgiveness (to the extent of the forgiveness), the Company has received payment from the SBA representing exercise of the loan guarantee or the Company has received payment from the underlying borrower (to the extent of the payment received). As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $205,000 and $5.0 million, respectively, was outstanding under the PPPLF. As the PPP has ended, no new extensions of credit may be made under the PPPLF and, as of June 30, 2022, substantially all obligations to the Federal Reserve have been satisfied.

Deferred debt issuance costs, which represent legal and third-party fees incurred in connection with the Company’s borrowing activities, are capitalized and amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over the life of the related loan, approximating the effective interest method. Deferred debt issuance costs are presented net of accumulated amortization and are a reduction to total debt.

8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

On April 3, 2015, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) unanimously approved the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Equity Incentive Plan”), which was approved by the Company’s stockholders. Under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company granted awards of restricted shares of Common Stock to each of the independent members of the Board of Directors as follows:

May 2021	(3)	5,083	20,332
June 2022	June 2023	7,746	30,984

______________________

(1)Compensation expense related to these restricted shares of Common Stock is recognized over the vesting period, and generally vests based on one year of continuous service. The Company recorded compensation expense related to these restricted shares of Common Stock in the amount of $37,000 and $50,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $92,000 and $110,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

9. EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS")

The computations of basic EPS are based on the Company’s weighted average shares outstanding. No shares of Series D Preferred Stock, Series A Preferred Stock, or Series A1 Preferred Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2022 or 2021 were included in the computation of diluted EPS because they had no dilutive effect. Outstanding Series A Preferred Warrants were not included in the computation of diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 because their impact was either anti-dilutive or such warrants were not exercisable during such periods (Note 11). Outstanding shares of Series L Preferred Stock were not included in the computation of diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 because such shares were not redeemable during such periods.

EPS for the year-to-date period may differ from the sum of quarterly EPS amounts due to the required method for computing EPS in the respective periods. In addition, EPS is calculated independently for each component and may not be additive due to rounding.

The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator used in computing the Company’s basic and diluted per-share amounts for net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Preferred Warrants and Series D Preferred Stock, such as commissions, dealer manager fees and other offering fees and expenses, totaled $17.5 million ($356,000 of which was allocated to the Series A1 Preferred Stock, $17.0 million of which was allocated to the Series A Preferred Stock, $142,000 of which was allocated to the Series A Preferred Warrants, and $35,000 of which was allocated to the Series D Preferred Stock). In addition, as of June 30, 2022, non-issuance-specific costs related to this offering totaled $8.6 million. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had reclassified and allocated $60,000, $1.9 million, $5,000 and $13,000 from deferred charges to Series A1 Preferred Stock, Series A Preferred Stock, Series A Preferred Warrants and Series D Preferred Stock, respectively, as a reduction to the gross proceeds received. Such reclassification was based on the cumulative number of securities issued relative to the maximum number of securities expected to be issued under the offering. As of June 30, 2022, there were 192,440 shares of Series A1 Preferred Stock outstanding, 8,459,477 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, 4,294,512 Series A Preferred Warrants to purchase 1,113,569 shares of Common Stock outstanding, and 56,857 shares of Series D Preferred Stock outstanding. As of June 30, 2022, no shares of Series A1 Preferred Stock, 360,861 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and no shares of Series D Preferred Stock had been redeemed.

Series A1 Preferred Stock—Since June 2022, the Company has been conducting a continuous public offering with respect to shares of its Series A1 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share with an initial stated value of $25.00 per share, subject to adjustment. Shares of Series A1 Preferred Stock are recorded in permanent equity at the time of their issuance.

Series A Preferred Stock—The Company conducted a continuous public offering of Series A Preferred Units (with each unit (“Series A Preferred Unit”) consisting of one share of Series A Preferred Stock and, initially, one warrant (“Series A Preferred Warrant”) to purchase 0.25 of a share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment) from October 2016 through January 2020, where each Series A Preferred Unit consisted of one share of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company with an initial stated value of $25.00 per share, subject to adjustment, and one warrant to purchase 0.25 of a share of Common Stock. Proceeds and expenses from the sale of the Series A Preferred Units were allocated to the Series A Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Warrants using their relative fair values on the date of issuance.

From February 2020 through June 2022, the Company conducted a continuous public offering with respect to shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, which, since February 2020, was no longer being issued as a unit with an accompanying Series A Preferred Warrant. In June 2022, the Company concluded the offering of Series A Preferred Stock.

Net proceeds from the issuance of shares of Series A Preferred Stock were initially recorded in temporary equity at an amount equal to the gross proceeds allocated to such shares of Series A Preferred Stock minus the costs specifically identifiable to the issuance of such shares and the non-issuance specific offering costs allocated to such shares. If the net proceeds from the issuance of shares of Series A Preferred Stock were less than the redemption value of such shares at the time they were issued, or if the redemption value of such shares subsequently becomes greater than the carrying value of such shares, an adjustment was recorded to increase the carrying amount of such shares to their redemption value as of the balance sheet date. Such adjustment was considered a deemed dividend for purposes of calculating basic and diluted EPS. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded redeemable preferred stock deemed dividends of $4,000 and $19,000, respectively, related to such adjustments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded redeemable preferred stock deemed dividends of $106,000 and $163,000, respectively, related to such adjustments.

On the first anniversary of the issuance of a particular share of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company reclassifies such share of Series A Preferred Stock from temporary equity to permanent equity because the feature giving rise to temporary equity classification, the requirement to satisfy redemption requests in cash, lapses on the first anniversary date. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had reclassified an aggregate of $163.6 million in net proceeds from temporary equity to permanent equity.

Series D Preferred Stock—From February 2020 through June 2022, the Company conducted a continuous public offering with respect to shares of its Series D Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, subject to adjustment. The selling price of the Series D Preferred Stock was $25.00 per share for all sales that occurred from the beginning of the offering to and including June 28, 2020 and $24.50 per share thereafter. Shares of Series D Preferred Stock were recorded in permanent equity at the time of their issuance. In June 2022, the Company concluded the offering of Series D Preferred Stock.

Series L Preferred Stock—On November 21, 2017, the Company issued 8,080,740 shares of Series L Preferred Stock having an initial stated value of $28.37 per share (“Series L Preferred Stock Stated Value”), subject to adjustment. The Company received gross proceeds of $229.3 million from the sale of the Series L Preferred Stock, which was reduced by issuance-specific offering costs, such as commissions, dealer manager fees, and other offering fees and expenses, totaling $15.9 million, a discount of $2.9 million, and non-issuance-specific costs of $2.5 million. These fees have been recorded as a reduction to the gross proceeds in permanent equity.

The Company expects to pay the Series A1 Dividend, Series A Dividend and Series D Dividend in arrears on a monthly basis in accordance with the foregoing provisions, unless the Company’s results of operations, general financing conditions, general economic conditions, applicable requirements of the MGCL or other factors make it imprudent to do so.

From and after the fifth anniversary of the date of original issuance of the Series L Preferred Stock, each holder will have the right to require the Company to redeem, and the Company will also have the option to redeem (subject to certain conditions), such shares of Series L Preferred Stock at a redemption price equal to the Series L Preferred Stock Stated Value, plus, provided certain conditions are met, all accrued and unpaid distributions.

11. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Dividends

Holders of the Company’s Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, if, as and when authorized by the Board of Directors and declared by the Company out of legally available funds. In determining the Company’s dividend policy, the Board of Directors considers many factors including the amount of cash resources available for dividend distributions, capital spending plans, cash flow, the Company’s financial position, applicable requirements of the MGCL, any applicable contractual restrictions, and future growth in NAV and cash flow per share prospects. Consequently, the dividend rate on a quarterly basis

does not necessarily correlate directly to any individual factor. Cash dividends per share of Common Stock declared in respect of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 consist of the following:

Declaration Date	Payment Date	Type	Cash Dividend Per Share of Common Stock
June 10, 2022	July 5, 2022	Regular Quarterly	$	0.085
March 8, 2022	April 1, 2022	Regular Quarterly	$	0.085

March 5, 2021	March 30, 2021	Regular Quarterly	$	0.075

Series A Preferred Warrants

Prior to February 2020, the Series A Preferred Stock was sold as a unit that included one share of Series A Preferred Stock and one Series A Preferred Warrant that could be exercised to purchase 0.25 of a share of Common Stock. The Series A Preferred Warrants are exercisable beginning on the first anniversary of the date of their original issuance until and including the fifth anniversary of the date of such issuance. At the time of issuance, the exercise price of each Series A Preferred Warrant was at a 15.0% premium to the per share estimated NAV of the Company’s Common Stock then most recently published and designated as the applicable NAV. However, in accordance with the terms of the Series A Preferred Warrants, the exercise price of each Series A Preferred Warrant issued prior to the Reverse Stock Split was automatically adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split and, in the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, the exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of each Series A Preferred Warrant issued prior to the Special Dividend was adjusted to reflect the effect of the Special Dividend.

Proceeds and expenses from the sale of the Series A Preferred Units were allocated to the Series A Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Warrants using their relative fair values on the date of issuance. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had 4,294,512 Series A Preferred Warrants outstanding to purchase 1,113,569 shares of Common Stock in connection with the Company’s offering of Series A Preferred Units and allocated net proceeds of $584,000, after specifically identifiable offering costs and allocated general offering costs, to the Series A Preferred Warrants in permanent equity.

Share Repurchase Program

In May 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a repurchase program of up to $10.0 million of the Company’s Common Stock (the “SRP”). Under the SRP, the Company, in its discretion, may purchase shares of its Common Stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of purchases of shares will depend on a number of factors, including, without limitation, the price and availability of shares, trading volume, general market conditions and compliance with applicable securities law. The SRP has no termination date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

As of June 30, 2022, share repurchases executed under the SRP were as follows:

Period	Shares Repurchased	Average price paid per share	Cumulative amount of shares repurchased (in thousands)
Three months ended June 30, 2022	41,374	$7.32	$303

12. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company determines the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities utilizing a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to a fair value measurement are considered to be observable or unobservable in a marketplace. The hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value is as follows:

Level 1 Inputs—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 Inputs—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

Level 3 Inputs—Unobservable inputs

26

CREATIVE MEDIA & COMMUNITY TRUST CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2022 (Unaudited) – (Continued)

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Management’s estimation of the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments is based on a Level 3 valuation in the fair value hierarchy established f or disclosure of how a company values its financial instruments. In general, quoted market prices from active markets for the identical financial instrument (Level 1 inputs), if available, should be used to value a financial instrument. If quoted prices are not available for the identical financial instrument, then a determination should be made if Level 2 inputs are available. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets for identical or similar financial instruments in markets that are not active (i.e., markets in which there are few transactions for the financial instruments, the prices are not current, price quotations vary substantially, or in which little information is released publicly). There is limited reliable market information for the Company’s financial instruments and the Company utilizes other methodologies based on unobservable inputs for valuation purposes since there are no Level 1 or Level 2 inputs available. Accordingly, Level 3 inputs are used to measure fair value.

In general, estimates of fair value may differ from the carrying amounts of the financial assets and liabilities primarily as a result of the effects of discounting future cash flows. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data and develop estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented are made at a point in time and may not be indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

The following describes the methods the Company uses to estimate the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities.

Debt—The carrying amounts of the Company’s secured borrowings—government guaranteed loans, SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes, 2018 Revolving Credit Facility and borrowed funds from the Federal Reserve through the PPPLF approximate their fair values, as the interest rates on these securities are variable and approximate current market interest rates. The Company determines the fair value of mortgage notes payable and junior subordinated notes by performing discounted cash flow analyses using an appropriate market discount rate. The Company calculates the market discount rate for its mortgage notes payable by obtaining period-end treasury or swap rates, as applicable, for maturities that correspond to the maturities of the Company’s debt and then adding an appropriate credit spread. These credit spreads take into account factors such as the Company’s credit standing, the maturity of the debt, whether the debt is secured or unsecured, and the loan-to-value ratios of the debt. When estimating the fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company used a rate of 5.23% and 3.22%, respectively. The rate used to estimate the fair value of the Company’s junior subordinated notes was 6.54% and 4.46% as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Loans Receivable—The Company determines the fair value of loans receivable by performing a present value analysis for the anticipated future cash flows using an appropriate market discount rate taking into consideration the credit risk and using an anticipated prepayment rate. The value of the government guaranteed portions of loans held for sale is based primarily on the anticipated proceeds to be received upon sale. The following summarizes the ranges of discount rates and prepayment rates used to arrive at the estimated fair values of the Company’s loans receivable:

	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
	Discount Rate	Prepayment Rate	Discount Rate	Prepayment Rate
SBA 7(a) loans receivable, subject to credit risk	8.00% - 10.00%	4.33% - 17.50%	6.25% - 8.25%	5.00% - 17.50%
SBA 7(a) loans receivable, subject to loan-backed notes	7.50% - 9.50%	5.00% - 17.50%	5.75% - 7.75%	5.00% - 17.50%
SBA 7(a) loans receivable, paycheck protection program	1.00%	N/A	1.00%	N/A
SBA 7(a) loans receivable, subject to secured borrowings	8.75% - 9.50%	5.00% - 17.50%	7.00% - 7.75%	5.00% - 17.50%

Other Financial Instruments—The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Due to the short-term maturities of these instruments, Level 1 inputs are utilized to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments.

The estimated fair values of those financial instruments which are not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets are as follows (dollar amounts in thousands):

13. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Asset Management and Other Fees to Related Parties

Asset Management Fees; Administrative Fees and Expenses—CIM Urban and CIM Capital, LLC, an affiliate of CIM REIT and CIM Group (“CIM Capital”), have an investment management agreement, pursuant to which CIM Urban engaged CIM Capital to provide certain services to CIM Urban (the “Investment Management Agreement”). CIM Capital has assigned its duties under the Investment Management Agreement to its four wholly-owned subsidiaries: CIM Capital Securities Management, LLC, a securities manager, CIM Capital RE Debt Management, LLC, a debt manager, CIM Capital Controlled Company Management, LLC, a controlled company manager, and CIM Capital Real Property Management, LLC, a real property manager. The “Operator” refers to CIM Capital and its four wholly-owned subsidiaries.

The Company and its subsidiaries have a master services agreement (the “Master Services Agreement”) with CIM Service Provider, LLC (the “Administrator”), an affiliate of CIM Group, pursuant to which the Administrator provides, or arranges for other service providers to provide, management and administration services to the Company and its subsidiaries. Pursuant to the Master Services Agreement, the Company appointed an affiliate of CIM Group as the administrator of Urban Partners GP, LLC.

On January 5, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Fee Waiver (the “Fee Waiver”) with the Operator and the Administrator with respect to fees that are payable to them. The Fee Waiver is effective retroactively to January 1, 2022 (the “Effective Date”). Pursuant to the Fee Waiver, the Administrator agreed to voluntarily waive any fees in excess of those set forth in the Fee Waiver, to the extent it would otherwise have been entitled to such additional compensation under the Master Service Agreement, and the Operator agreed to voluntarily waive any fees in excess of those set forth in the Fee Waiver, to the extent it would otherwise have been entitled to such additional compensation under the Investment Management Agreement. Following the end of each quarter, the Administrator will deliver to the Company (i) a calculation of the cumulative fees earned by the Operator and the Administrator under the methodology prescribed by the Fee Waiver from the Effective Date through the end of such quarter and (ii) a calculation of the cumulative fees that would have been earned by the Operator and the Administrator during such period under the Master Services Agreement and the Investment Management Agreement without giving effect to the Fee Waiver. If, in respect of any quarter, the aggregate fees that are payable under the methodology prescribed by the Fee Waiver exceed the aggregate fees that would have been payable under the Master Services Agreement and the Investment Management Agreement, without giving effect to the Fee Waiver, such quarter will be deemed an “Excess Quarter”. For any quarter following an Excess Quarter, the Company (upon the direction of the independent members of the Board) may, at its option and upon written notice to Administrator, elect to calculate all fees due to the Administrator and the Operator in accordance with the Master Services Agreement and the Investment Management Agreement, without giving effect to the Fee Waiver, from and after such Excess Quarter. Any such election by the Company will be irrevocable, and all fees due to the Administrator and the Operator from and after such election will be calculated in accordance with the Master Services Agreement and the Investment Management Agreement, without giving effect to the Fee Waiver.

The fees payable to the Operator and the Administrator are determined as follows under the Fee Waiver.

1.Base Fee: A base asset management fee (the “Base Fee”) is payable quarterly in arrears to the Operator in an amount equal to an annual rate of 1% (or 0.25% per quarter) of the average of the “Net Asset Value Attributable to Common Stockholders” as of the first and last day of the applicable quarter. Net Asset Value Attributable to Common stockholders is defined as (a) the sum of the Company’s (1) investments in real estate at fair value, (2) cash, (3) loans receivable at fair value and (4) the book value of the other assets of the Company, excluding deferred costs and net of other liabilities at book value, less (b) the Company’s (i) debt at face value, (ii) outstanding preferred stock at stated value, and (iii) non-controlling interests at book value; provided, that, non-controlling interests in any UPREIT operating partnership relating to the Company shall not be excluded.

Subject to applicable laws and regulations under Nasdaq and the TASE and the agreement of the Operator, the Company will pay the Base Fee owed with respect to the first quarter of 2022 in shares of its Series A Preferred Stock and it is likely that the Company will pay some or part of the remainder of the Base Fees incurred during the year ended December 31, 2022 in shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

2.Incentive Fee: An incentive fee (the “Revised Incentive Fee”) is payable quarterly in arrears to the Administrator with respect to the quarterly core funds from operations in excess of a quarterly threshold equal to 1.75% (i.e., 7.00% on an annualized basis) of the Company’s “Adjusted Common Equity” (as defined below) for such quarter (“Excess Core FFO”) as follows: (i) no Incentive Fee in any quarter in which the Excess Core FFO is $0; (ii) 100% of any Excess Core FFO up to an amount equal to the product of (x) the average of the Adjusted Common Equity as of the first and last day of the applicable quarter and (y) 0.4375%; and (iii) 20% of any Excess Core FFO thereafter. Revised Incentive Fees payable for any partial quarter will be appropriately prorated.

“Adjusted Common Equity” means Common Equity plus Excluded Depreciation and Amortization. “Common Equity” means Total Stockholders’ Equity minus Excluded Equity. “Total Stockholders’ Equity” means the amount reflected as total stockholders’ equity in accordance with GAAP on the consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its subsidiaries as of the last day of a given quarter. “Excluded Equity” means the sum of all preferred securities of the Company and its subsidiaries classified as permanent equity in accordance with GAAP on the consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its subsidiaries as of the last day of a given quarter. “Excluded Depreciation and Amortization” means, for a given quarter, the amount of all accumulated depreciation and amortization of (i) the Company and its subsidiaries and (ii) to the extent allocable to the Company and its subsidiaries, the unconsolidated affiliates, in each case as of the last day of such quarter that corresponds to the periodic depreciation and amortization expense calculated in each case in accordance with GAAP that is a permitted add back to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP when calculating funds from operations.

3.Capital Gains Fee: A capital gains fee (the “Capital Gains Fee”) is payable quarterly in arrears to the Administrator in an amount equal to (i) 15% of the cumulative aggregate realized capital gains minus the cumulative aggregate realized capital losses (in each case since the Effective Date), minus (ii) the aggregate capital gains fees paid since the Effective Date. Realized capital gains and realized capital losses are calculated by subtracting from the sales price of a property: (a) any costs incurred to sell such property, and (b) the current gross value of the property (meaning the property’s original acquisition price plus any subsequent, non-reimbursed capital improvements thereon paid for by the Company).

In lieu of cash payment of the Base Fee, the Company has issued to the Operator shares of its Series A1 Preferred Stock in July 2022 as payment for the quarterly Base Fee for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Subject to applicable laws and regulations under Nasdaq and TASE and the agreement of the Operator, and it is likely the Company will issue shares of its Series A1 Preferred Stock in lieu of cash payment of the Base Fee for the remainder of 2022.

In lieu of cash payment, the Company has issued to the Operator shares of its Series A1 Preferred Stock in July 2022 as payment for the quarterly asset management fee for the three months ended December 31, 2021.

Under the Master Services Agreement, for fiscal quarters prior to April 1,2020, the Company paid a base service fee (the “Base Service Fee”) to the Administrator initially set at $1.0 million per year (subject to an annual escalation by a specified inflation factor beginning on January 1, 2015), payable quarterly in arrears. On May 11, 2020, the Master Services Agreement was amended to replace the Base Service Fee with an incentive fee pursuant to which the Administrator was entitled to receive, on a quarterly basis, 15.00% of the Company’s quarterly core funds from operations in excess of a quarterly threshold equal to 1.75% (i.e., 7.00% on an annualized basis) of the Company’s average Adjusted Common Equity (defined above) for such quarter. The amendment was effective as of April 1, 2020 and was further modified by the Fee Waiver described above. No such incentive fee was paid by the Company.

In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Master Services Agreement, the Administrator may receive compensation and or reimbursement for performing certain services for the Company and its subsidiaries that are not covered by the Base Service Fee. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, such services performed by the Administrator and its affiliates included accounting, tax, reporting, internal audit, legal, compliance, risk management, IT, human resources, corporate communications, operational and on-going support in connection with the Company’s offering of Preferred Stock. The Administrator’s compensation is based on the salaries and benefits of the employees of the Administrator and or its affiliates who performed these services (allocated based on the percentage of time spent on the affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries). The expense for such services is included in expense reimbursements to related parties—corporate in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Property Management Fees and Reimbursements—CIM Management, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, the “CIM Management Entities”), all affiliates of CIM REIT and CIM Group, provide property management, leasing, and development services to CIM Urban.

The agreement provides that CIM SBA will provide personnel and resources to the Company and that the Company will reimburse CIM SBA for the costs and expenses of providing such personnel and resources. The expense for such services is included in expense reimbursements to related parties—lending segment in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Offering-Related Fees—CCO Capital, LLC (“CCO Capital”) became the exclusive dealer manager for the Company’s public offering of the Series A Preferred Units effective as of May 31, 2019. CCO Capital is a registered broker dealer and is under common control with the Operator and the Administrator. The Company’s offering of the Series A Preferred Units ended at the end of January 2020. On January 28, 2020, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Dealer Manager Agreement, pursuant to which CCO Capital acted as the exclusive dealer manager for the Company’s public offering of its Series A Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock. Thereunder, the Company agreed to compensate CCO Capital, as the dealer manager for the offering, as follows: (1) an upfront dealer manager fee of up to 1.25% of the selling price

Other

On May 15, 2019, CIM Group entered into an approximately 11-year lease for approximately 32,000 rentable square feet with respect to a property owned by the Company.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Loan Commitments—Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer when the terms established in the contract are met. The Company’s outstanding commitments to fund loans were $7.1 million as of June 30, 2022, the majority of which are for prime-based loans to be originated by the Company’s subsidiary engaged in SBA 7(a) Small Business Loan Program lending, the government guaranteed portion of which is intended to be sold. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates. Since some commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

General—In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate properties, the Company has certain obligations for the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions in connection with new leases and renewals. The Company had a total of $6.0 million in future obligations under leases to fund tenant improvements and other future construction obligations as of June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, $2.5 million was funded to reserve accounts included in restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet for these tenant improvement obligations in connection with the mortgage loan agreement entered into in June 2016.

Employment Agreements—The Company has an employment agreement with one of its officers. Under certain circumstances, this employment agreement provides for (1) severance payment equal to the annual base salary paid to the officer and (2) death and disability payments in an amount equal to two times and one time, respectively, the annual base salary paid to the officer.

Litigation—The Company is not currently involved in any material pending or threatened legal proceedings nor, to the Company’s knowledge, are any material legal proceedings currently threatened against the Company, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In the normal course of business, the Company is periodically party to certain legal actions and proceedings involving matters that are generally incidental to the Company’s business. While the outcome of these legal actions and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, in management’s opinion, the resolution of these legal proceedings and actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or the Company’s ability to satisfy its debt service obligations or to maintain its level of distributions on Common Stock or Preferred Stock.

A subsidiary of the Company is a defendant in a lawsuit in connection with injuries sustained by a third-party contractor at a property previously owned by such subsidiary. While it is possible that a loss may be incurred, the Company is unable to estimate a range of potential losses due to the complexity and current status of the lawsuit. However, the Company maintains insurance coverage to mitigate the impact of adverse exposures in lawsuits of this nature and do not expect this lawsuit to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or the Company ability to satisfy its debt service obligations or to maintain the level of distributions on the Company’s Common Stock or Preferred Stock.

SBA Related—If the SBA establishes that a loss on an SBA guaranteed loan is attributable to significant technical deficiencies in the manner in which the loan was originated, funded or serviced under the PPP or the SBA 7(a) Small Business Loan Program, the SBA may seek recovery of the principal loss related to the deficiency from the Company. As of June 30, 2022, the Company serviced an aggregate of $265.5 million of the guaranteed portion of SBA 7(a) loans. With respect to the guaranteed portion of SBA loans that have been sold, the SBA will first honor its guarantee and then seek compensation from the Company in the event that a loss is deemed to be attributable to technical deficiencies. Based on historical experience, the Company does not expect that this contingency is probable to be asserted. However, if asserted, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or the Company’s ability to satisfy its debt service obligations or to maintain its level of distributions on Common Stock or Preferred Stock.

Environmental Matters—In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate properties, the Company may be potentially liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters, including asbestos-containing materials. The Company has not been notified by any governmental authority of any noncompliance, liability, or other claim in connection with any of the properties, and the Company is not aware of any other environmental condition with respect to any of the properties that management believes will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or the Company’s ability to satisfy its debt service obligations or to maintain its level of distributions on Common Stock or Preferred Stock.

16. SEGMENT DISCLOSURE

The Company’s reportable segments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 consist of two types of commercial real estate properties, namely, office and hotel, as well as a segment for the Company’s lending business. Management internally evaluates the operating performance and financial results of the segments based on net operating income.

Executive Summary

Business Overview

Creative Media & Community Trust Corporation (formerly known as CIM Commercial Trust Corporation) is a Maryland corporation and REIT. We primarily own and operate Class A and creative office real assets in vibrant and improving metropolitan communities throughout the United States. We seek to acquire, operate and develop premier multifamily and creative office assets that cater to rapidly growing industries such as technology, media and entertainment in vibrant and emerging communities throughout the United States. We seek to apply the expertise of CIM Group to the acquisition, development and operation of top-tier multifamily properties situated in dynamic markets with similar business and employment characteristics to its creative office investments. All of our real estate assets are and will generally be located in communities qualified by CIM Group as described further below. These communities are located in areas that include traditional downtown areas and suburban main streets, which have high barriers to entry, high population density, positive population trends and a propensity for growth. We believe that the critical mass of redevelopment in such areas creates positive externalities, which enhance the value of real estate assets in the area. We believe that these assets will provide greater returns than similar assets in other markets, as a result of the population growth, public commitment and significant private investment that characterize these areas. We intend that no investment will exceed 10% of our gross asset value at the time of investment but management may ultimately determine to execute on more significant acquisitions.

We are operated by affiliates of CIM Group. CIM is a community-focused real estate and infrastructure owner, operator, lender and developer. CIM is headquartered in Los Angeles, CA, with offices in Atlanta, GA, Bethesda, MD, Chicago, IL, Dallas, TX, New York, NY, Orlando, FL, Phoenix, AZ, and Tokyo, Japan. CIM also maintains additional offices across the United States, as well as in Korea, Hong Kong and the United Kingdom to support its platform.

COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic. Since then, COVID-19 has spread worldwide, causing significant disruptions to the U.S. and world economies. Additionally, the spread of COVID-19 in the United States and the resulting restrictions on travel, meetings and social gatherings that have been implemented from time to time have impacted, and may continue to impact, the operations of our hotel in Sacramento, California.

The extent to which COVID-19 will continue to impact our operations and those of our tenants, business partners and borrowers will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of any new outbreaks involving variants of COVID-19 and actions taken to contain or mitigate such outbreaks, the distribution and acceptance of vaccines, the impacts on the U.S. and international economies and the extent to which federal, state and local governments provide relief or assistance to those affected by COVID-19. We cannot predict the significance, extent or duration of any adverse impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations or to maintain our level of distributions on its Common Stock or Preferred Stock. However, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity have been adversely affected and may continue to be adversely affected during 2022.

Properties

As of June 30, 2022, our real estate portfolio consisted of 17 assets, all of which were fee-simple properties, including one office property which we own through our investment in an unconsolidated joint venture (the “Unconsolidated Joint Venture”). As of June 30, 2022, our 12 office properties, totaling approximately 1.4 million rentable square feet, were 78.1% occupied and our one hotel with an ancillary parking garage, which has a total of 503 rooms, had RevPAR of $127.98 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, as of June 30, 2022, we had three development sites (one being used as a parking lot).

Strategy

We are a Maryland corporation and REIT. Our portfolio of investments currently consists of Class A and creative office real assets in vibrant and improving metropolitan communities throughout the United States. We also own one hotel in northern California and a lending platform that originates loans under the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) 7(a) loan program. We seek to acquire, operate and develop premier multifamily and creative office assets that cater to rapidly growing industries such as technology, media and entertainment in vibrant and emerging communities throughout the United States. We seek to apply the expertise of CIM Group to the acquisition, development and operation of top-tier multifamily properties situated in dynamic markets with similar business and employment characteristics to its creative office investments. All of our multifamily and creative office assets are and will generally be located in communities qualified by CIM Group as described

further below. These communities are located in areas that include traditional downtown areas and suburban main streets, which have high barriers to entry, high population density, positive population trends and a propensity for growth. We believe that the critical mass of redevelopment in such areas creates positive externalities, which enhance the value of real estate assets in the area. We believe that these assets will provide greater returns than similar assets in other markets, as a result of the population growth, public commitment and significant private investment that characterize these areas.

Our investments in multifamily and creative office assets may take different forms, including direct equity or preferred investments, real estate development activities, side-by-side investments or co-investments with vehicles managed or owned by CIM Group and/or originating loans that are secured directly or indirectly by properties primarily located in qualified communities (“Qualified Communities”) that meet our strategy. We intend that no investment will exceed 10% of our gross asset value at the time of investment but management may ultimately determine to execute on more significant acquisitions.

We intend to dispose of assets that do not fit into our strategy over time and opportunistically (i.e., we do not have any specific time frame with respect to such dispositions). Further, as a matter of prudent management, we regularly evaluate each asset within our portfolio as well as our strategy. Such review may result in dispositions when, among other things, we believe the proceeds generated from the sale of an asset can be redeployed in one or more assets that will generate better returns, or the market value of such asset is equal to or exceeds our view of its intrinsic value. If we dispose of any of these assets, we intend to reinvest the proceeds in assets that fit our strategy.

CIM Group Operations

CIM Group believes that a vast majority of the risks associated with acquiring real estate are mitigated by accumulating local market knowledge of the community where the asset is located. As a result, CIM Group typically spends significant resources over a period of between six months and five years evaluating communities prior to making any acquisitions. The distinct districts that CIM Group identifies through this process as targets for acquisitions are referred to as “Qualified Communities.” Qualified Communities typically have dedicated resources to become, or are currently, vibrant communities where people can live, work, shop and be entertained, all within walking distance or close proximity to public transportation. These areas, which include traditional downtown areas and suburban main streets, generally have high barriers to entry, high population density, positive population trends, a propensity for growth and support for investment. CIM Group believes that the critical mass of redevelopment in such Qualified Communities creates positive externalities, which enhance the value of real estate assets in the area. CIM Group targets acquisitions of diverse types of real estate assets, including retail, residential, office, parking, hotel, signage and mixed-use through CIM Group’s extensive network and its current opportunistic activities.

CIM Group seeks to maximize the value of its holdings through active onsite property management and leasing. CIM Group has extensive in-house research, acquisition, credit analysis, development, finance, leasing and onsite property management capabilities, which leverage its deep understanding of metropolitan communities to position properties for multiple uses and to maximize operating income. As a vertically-integrated owner and operator, CIM Group has in-house onsite property management and leasing capabilities. Property managers prepare annual capital and operating budgets and monthly operating reports, monitor results and oversee vendor services, maintenance and capital improvement schedules. In addition, they ensure that revenue objectives are met, lease terms are followed, receivables are collected, preventative maintenance programs are implemented, vendors are evaluated and expenses are controlled. In addition, CIM Group’s real assets management committee (the “Real Assets Management Committee”) reviews and approves strategic plans for each asset, including financing, leasing, marketing and property positioning, as well as hold/sell analyses and performance tracking relative to the overall business plan. CIM Group’s organizational structure provides for continuity through multi-disciplinary teams responsible for an asset from the time of the original investment recommendation, through the implementation of the asset’s business plan, and any repositions or ultimate disposition activities.

CIM Group’s Investments and Development teams are separate groups that work very closely together on transactions requiring development or redevelopment. While the Investments team is ultimately responsible for acquisition analysis, both the Investments and Development teams perform due diligence, evaluate and determine underwriting assumptions and participate in the development management and ongoing asset management of CIM Group’s assets under development. The Development team is also responsible for the oversight and or execution of securing entitlements and the development/repositioning process. In instances where CIM Group is not the lead developer, CIM Group’s in-house Development team continues to provide development and construction oversight to co-sponsors through a shadow team that oversees the progress of the development from beginning to end to ensure adherence to the budgets, schedules, quality and scope of the project in order to maintain CIM Group’s vision for the final product. Both the Investments and Development teams interact as a cohesive team when sourcing, underwriting, acquiring, executing and managing the business plan of an opportunistic acquisition.

Financing Strategy

We may finance our future activities through one or more of the following methods: (i) offerings of shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), preferred stock or other equity and or debt securities of the Company; (ii) credit facilities and term loans; (iii) the addition of senior recourse or non-recourse debt using target acquisitions as well as existing assets as collateral; (iv) the sale of existing assets; and or (v) cash flows from operations.

Rental Rate Trends

Office Statistics:    The following table sets forth occupancy rates and annualized rent per occupied square foot across our office portfolio as of the specified periods (includes property partially owned through the Unconsolidated Joint Venture):

	As of June 30,
	2022			2021
Occupancy (1)	78.1		%	78.0		%
Annualized rent per occupied square foot (1)(2)	$	54.13		$	52.32

______________________

(1)The information presented in this table represents historical information as of the date indicated without giving effect to any property sales occurring thereafter. 

(2)Represents gross monthly base rent under leases commenced as of the specified periods, multiplied by 12. This amount reflects total cash rent before abatements. Total abatements, representing lease incentives in the form of free rent, for the twelve months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were approximately $2.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Where applicable, annualized rent has been grossed up by adding annualized expense reimbursements to base rent. Annualized rent for certain office properties includes rent attributable to retail.

Over the next four quarters, we expect to see expiring cash rents as set forth in the table below (includes property partially owned through the Unconsolidated Joint Venture):

	For the Three Months Ended
	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2022		March 31, 2023		June 30, 2023
Expiring Cash Rents:
Expiring square feet (1)	55,126		42,368		29,477		45,916
Expiring rent per square foot (2)	$	49.45	$	49.64	$	51.12	$	53.03

______________________

(1)Month-to-month tenants occupying a total of 15,552 square feet are included in the expiring leases in the first quarter listed.

(2)Represents gross monthly base rent, as of June 30, 2022, under leases expiring during the periods above, multiplied by 12. This amount reflects total cash rent before abatements. Where applicable, annualized rent has been grossed up by adding annualized expense reimbursements to base rent.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we executed leases with terms longer than 12 months totaling 39,392 and 60,870 square feet, respectively. The table below sets forth information on certain of our executed leases during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, excluding space that was vacant for more than one year, month-to-month leases, leases with an original term of less than 12 months, related party leases, and space where the previous tenant was a related party:

	Number of Leases (1)	Rentable Square Feet	New Cash Rents per Square Foot (2)		Expiring Cash Rents per Square Foot (2)
Three months ended June 30, 2022	7	26,766	$	35.11	$	33.18
Six months ended June 30, 2022	14	41,737	$	44.60	$	43.57

(2)Cash rents represent gross monthly base rent, multiplied by twelve. This amount reflects total cash rent before abatements. Where applicable, annualized rent has been grossed up by adding annualized expense reimbursements to base rent.

Fluctuations in submarkets, buildings and terms of leases cause large variations in these numbers and make predicting the changes in rent in any specific period difficult. Our rental and occupancy rates are impacted by general economic conditions, including the pace of regional and economic growth, and access to capital. Therefore, we cannot give any assurance that leases will be renewed or that available space will be re-leased at rental rates equal to or above the current market rates. Additionally, decreased demand and other negative trends or unforeseeable events that impair our ability to timely renew or re lease space could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations or to maintain our level of distributions on our Common Stock or Preferred Stock.

Hotel Statistics:    The following table sets forth the occupancy, ADR and RevPAR for our hotel in Sacramento, California for the specified periods:

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2022			2021
Occupancy	73.3		%	38.8		%
ADR	$	174.48		$	119.99
RevPAR	$	127.98		$	46.52

Seasonality

Our revenues and expenses for our hotel property are subject to seasonality during the year. Generally, our hotel revenues are greater in the first and second quarters than the third and fourth quarters. This seasonality can be expected to cause quarterly fluctuations in revenues, segment net operating income, net income and cash provided by operating activities. In addition, the hotel industry is cyclical and demand generally follows, on a lagged basis, key macroeconomic factors.

Lending Segment

Through our loans originated under the SBA 7(a) Program, we are a national lender that primarily originates loans to small businesses. We identify loan origination opportunities through personal contacts, internet referrals, attendance at trade shows and meetings, direct mailings, advertisements in trade publications and other marketing methods. We also generate loans through referrals from real estate and loan brokers, franchise representatives, existing borrowers, lawyers and accountants. In addition, as an SBA 7(a) licensee, we originated loans as an authorized lender under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), which was enacted during the year ended December 31, 2020 and completed during 2021. Originations under the PPP have ended and we had a remaining outstanding balance of $205,000 in PPP loans outstanding as of June 30, 2022.

The SBA 7(a) Loan Program is the SBA’s most common loan program and is considered to be the best SBA assisted loan option when real estate is part of a business purchase. The maximum loan amount for an SBA 7(a) loan is $5.0 million. Key eligibility factors are based on what the business does to generate its income, its credit history, and where the business operates. We assist in the identification of which type of loan is best suited for a potential borrower’s needs. Our SBA 7(a) term loans have monthly repayment terms of principal and interest and are originated with variable interest rates based on the prime rate. Most of our SBA 7(a) loans have maturities of approximately 25 years.

The PPP provided lenders who originated loans under the program with a 100% guaranty of repayment (provided certain conditions are met) and provided small businesses with uncollateralized and unguaranteed loans at an interest rate of 1.00%. We obtained all funds to originate loans under the PPP from the Federal Reserve on a basis that correlated to the outstanding principal balance due from our borrowers pursuant to the PPP on a dollar-for-dollar basis with a cost of funds of 0.35%. As of June 30, 2022, substantially all loans originated under the PPP have been repaid (with a concomitant reduction in our obligations to the Federal Reserve).

While we have focused on originating real estate loans almost exclusively to the limited service and mid-scale hospitality industry, we intend to increase our efforts to originate other real estate collateralized loans. These loans are anticipated to be concentrated in industries in which we previously had positive experience, including convenience store, RV park and single purpose building owner-occupied restaurant operations and may include owner-occupied industrial operations/warehouse buildings.

Property Concentration

Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Incorporated (“Kaiser”), which occupied space in one of our Oakland, California properties, accounted for 29.2% of our annualized rental income for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

2022 Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

Net Income and FFO

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Change
	2022		2021		$		%
	(dollars in thousands)
Total revenues	$	26,403	$	22,673	$	3,730	16.5	%
Total expenses	$	23,411	$	21,150	$	2,261	10.7	%
Net income	$	2,931	$	527	$	2,404	456.2	%

Net income increased to $2.9 million, or by $2.4 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net income of $527,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in office segment net operating income of $314,000, an increase in hotel segment net operating income of $3.2 million, a decrease in asset management fees of $1.3 million and a decrease in provision for income taxes of $675,000, partially offset by a decrease in lending segment net operating income of $3.4 million.

Funds from Operations

We believe that funds from operations (“FFO”), a non-GAAP measure, is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of a REIT and that it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO represents net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, which reflects the deduction of redeemable preferred stock dividends accumulated, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate, impairment of real estate, and real estate depreciation and amortization. We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (the “NAREIT”).

Like any metric, FFO should not be used as the only measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our real estate properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our operating results. Other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by the NAREIT; accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to the FFOs of other REITs. Therefore, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a supplement to or substitute measure for cash flows from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.

The following table sets forth a historical reconciliation of net loss attributable to common stockholders to FFO attributable to common stockholders (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021
Net loss attributable to common stockholders(1)	$	(2,349)	$	(4,210)
Depreciation and amortization	4,974		5,069
FFO attributable to common stockholders(1)	$	2,625	$	859

______________________

(1)During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recognized $106,000 and $13,000, respectively, of redeemable preferred stock redemptions and $4,000 and $106,000, respectively, of redeemable preferred stock deemed dividends. Such amounts are included in, and have the effect of reducing, net loss attributable to common stockholders and FFO attributable to common stockholders, because redeemable preferred stock redemptions are not an adjustment prescribed by NAREIT.

FFO attributable to common stockholders was $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $1.8 million compared to $859,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in FFO is primarily attributable to an increase in office segment net operating income of $314,000, an increase in hotel segment net operating income of $3.2 million, a decrease in asset management fees of $1.3 million and a decrease in provision for income taxes of $675,000, partially offset by a decrease in lending segment net operating income of $3.4 million as well as an increase in redeemable preferred stock dividends declared or accumulated of $540,000.

Revenues

Office Revenue: Office revenue includes rental revenue, expense reimbursements and lease termination income from office properties. Office revenue increased to $14.1 million, or by 5.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $13.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily due to increased rental revenue at an office property in Austin, Texas as a result of higher occupancy for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Hotel Revenue: Hotel revenue increased to $9.6 million, or by 175.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in occupancy and average daily rate during the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the second quarter of 2021 as a result of the hospitality industry recovering from the impact of COVID-19.

Lending Revenue: Lending revenue represents revenue from our lending subsidiaries, including interest income on loans and other loan related fee income. Lending revenue decreased to $2.8 million, or by 52.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $5.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease is primarily due to lower premium income as a result of lower loan sale volume and a reduction in the market premium achieved during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. We expect lending revenue to be lower materially for the second half of 2022, when compared to the second half of 2021 because of lower loan origination volume compared to 2021, a year when the SBA temporarily increased guaranteed percentages for SBA 7(a) loan originations, decreased demand for variable rate loans in the current inflationary economic environment, which we believe tends to lead borrowers to seek fixed rate loan products, and lower revenue from servicing assets retained for servicing the government guaranteed portion of our loans due to expected increases in prepayment. These factors were partially offset by acceleration of income-recognition from any principal discounts recorded on our loans due to increased prepayment.

Expenses

Office Expenses: Office expenses increased to $6.4 million, or by 11.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $5.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily due to an increase in operating expenses at an office property in Austin, Texas, primarily as a result of increased real estate tax expense, as well as at an office property in Beverly Hills, California and an office property in Oakland, California, primarily as a result of higher maintenance expenses.

Hotel Expenses: Hotel expenses increased to $6.3 million, or by 81.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of increased occupancy at the hotel as compared to the first quarter of 2021 as a result of the hospitality industry recovering from the impact of COVID-19.

Lending Expenses: Lending expenses represent expenses from our lending subsidiaries, including interest expense, general and administrative expenses and fees to related parties. Lending expenses increased to $1.1 million, or by 34.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $792,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in salary expenses (largely due to a reduction in costs being capitalized as a result of lower loan origination volume) as well as an increase in general and administrative expenses.

Income From Unconsolidated Entity: Income from our unconsolidated entity included in office segment net operating income was $260,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. As our investment in the unconsolidated entity was made in February 2022, there was no comparable income for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Asset Management and Other Fees to Related Parties: Asset management fees and other fees to related parties, which have not been allocated to our operating segments, were $920,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of 59.3%, compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was a result of the Fee Waiver which became effective January 1, 2022 and resulted in the new Base Fee calculated at an annual rate of 1% (or 0.25% per quarter) of the average net asset value attributable to common stockholders at the beginning and end of the period.

Expense Reimbursements to Related Parties—Corporate: The Administrator receives compensation and or reimbursement for performing certain services for the Company and its subsidiaries that are not covered by the Incentive Fee. Expense reimbursements to related parties-corporate were $526,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of 15.9%, compared to $454,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 due to increases in allocated payroll.

Interest Expense: Interest expense, which has not been allocated to our operating segments, was $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of 8.3% compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease is primarily due to a lower average outstanding principal balance on our 2018 Revolving Credit Facility compared to

43

the three months ended June 30, 2021, partially offset by increases in the LIBOR component of interest rates on our variable-rate debt for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses, which have not been allocated to our operating segments, were $880,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, consistent with $835,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense: Depreciation and amortization expense was consistent at $5.0 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Provision for Income Taxes: Provision for income taxes was $321,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $996,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in provision for income taxes is due to a decrease in taxable income at our taxable REIT subsidiaries, largely due to the operations of the lending division during the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

______________________

(1)During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recognized $181,000 and $26,000, respectively, of redeemable preferred stock redemptions and $19,000 and $163,000, respectively, of redeemable preferred stock deemed dividends. Such amounts are included in, and have the effect of reducing, net loss attributable to common stockholders and FFO attributable to common stockholders, because redeemable preferred stock redemptions are not an adjustment prescribed by NAREIT.

FFO attributable to common stockholders was $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $7.1 million compared to $(2.3) million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in FFO is primarily attributable to an increase of $541,000 in office segment net operating income, an increase of $6.5 million in hotel segment net operating income, a decrease of $2.7 million in asset management and other fees to related parties, a decrease of $859,000 in general and administrative expenses, a decrease of $585,000 in interest expense and a decrease of $742,000 in provision for income taxes, partially offset by a decrease of $3.7 million in lending segment net operating income and by an increase in redeemable preferred dividends declared or accumulated of $1.1 million.

Revenues

Office Revenue: Office revenue includes rental revenue, expense reimbursements and lease termination income from office properties. Office revenue increased to $28.2 million, or by 4.8%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $26.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily due to increased rental revenue at an office property in Austin, Texas as a result of higher occupancy as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Hotel Revenue: Hotel revenue increased to $17.4 million, or by 224.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $5.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in occupancy and average daily rate during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of the hospitality industry recovering from the impact of COVID-19.

Lending Revenue: Lending revenue represents revenue from our lending subsidiaries, including interest income on loans and other loan related fee income. Lending revenue decreased to $5.6 million, or by 39.5%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease is primarily due to lower premium income as a result of lower loan sale volume and a reduction in the market premium achieved during the six months ended June

45

30, 2022, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. We expect lending revenue to be lower materially for the second half of 2022, when compared to the second half of 2021 because of lower loan origination volume compared to 2021, a year when the SBA temporarily increased guaranteed percentages for SBA 7(a) loan originations, decreased demand for variable rate loans in the current inflationary economic environment, which we believe tends to lead borrowers to seek fixed rate loan products, and lower revenue from servicing assets retained for servicing the government guaranteed portion of our loans due to expected increases in prepayment. These factors were partially offset by acceleration of income-recognition from any principal discounts recorded on our loans due to increased prepayment.

Expenses

Office Expenses: Office expenses increased to $12.6 million, or by 9.9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily due to an increase in operating expenses at an office property in Austin, Texas, primarily as a result of increased real estate tax expense, and an office property in Oakland, California, primarily as a result of higher maintenance expenses. and an office property in Oakland, California as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Hotel Expenses: Hotel expenses increased to $11.7 million, or by 90.3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of increased occupancy at the hotel during as a result of the hospitality industry recovering from the impact of COVID-19.

Lending Expenses: Lending expenses represent expenses from our lending subsidiaries, including interest expense, general and administrative expenses and fees to related party. Lending expenses were $2.2 million, for both the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Asset Management and Other Fees to Related Parties: Asset management fees and other fees to related parties, which have not been allocated to our operating segments, were $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of 59.3%, compared to $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was a result of the Fee Waiver which became effective January 1, 2022 and resulted in the new Base Fee calculated at an annual rate of 1% (or 0.25% per quarter) of the average net asset value attributable to common stockholders at the beginning and end of the period.

Expense Reimbursements to Related Parties—Corporate: The Administrator receives compensation and or reimbursement for performing certain services for the Company and its subsidiaries that are not covered by the Incentive Fee. Expense reimbursements to related parties-corporate were $948,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of 10.5%, compared to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to reductions in allocated payroll.

Interest Expense: Interest expense, which has not been allocated to our operating segments, was $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of 11.9% compared to $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease is primarily due to a lower average outstanding principal balance on our 2018 revolving credit facility during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, partially offset by increases in the LIBOR component of interest rates on our variable-rate debt for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2021.

General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses, which have not been allocated to our operating segments, were $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of 29.9% compared to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in legal fees as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense: Depreciation and amortization expense was $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, consistent with $10.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Provision for Income Taxes: Provision for income taxes was $628,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of 54.2% compared to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in provision for income taxes is due to a decrease in taxable income at our taxable REIT subsidiaries, largely due to the operations of the lending division during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Cash Flow Analysis

Our cash flows from operating activities are primarily dependent upon the real estate assets owned, occupancy level of our real estate assets, the rental rates achieved through our leases, the occupancy and ADR of our hotel, the collectability of rent and recoveries from our tenants, and loan related activity. Our cash flows from operating activities are also impacted by fluctuations in operating expenses and other general and administrative costs. Net cash provided by operating activities

46

increased by $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021.The increase was primarily due to an increase in net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense, write-offs of uncollectible receivables and income from our unconsolidated entity of $6.9 million, primarily as a result of increases in segment net operating income and a decrease in asset management fees, partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in net proceeds from sale of guaranteed loans net of loan fundings, held for sale.

Our cash flows from investing activities are primarily related to property acquisitions and dispositions, expenditures for the development or repositioning of properties, capital expenditures and cash flows associated with loans originated at our lending segment. Net cash used in investing activities increased by $30.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to an increase of $3.8 million in capital expenditures, primarily as a result of increased office leasing activity resulting in more tenant improvements, and acquisitions of real estate of $8.1 million, compared to no purchases during the same period in 2021, and a cash outlay of $22.4 million related to our investment in the Unconsolidated Joint Venture during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, as a result of the ending of the PPP loan originations in 2021, there was a decrease in net cash used in investing activities related to net loan fundings of $3.4 million.

Our cash flows from financing activities are generally impacted by borrowings and capital activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $4.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $12.9 million in the same period in 2021. The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities of $8.4 million was primarily as a result of net proceeds from issuance of Common Stock during the six months ended June 30, 2021 of $78.5 million related to our rights offering completed in June 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 in which the Company repurchased $303,000 worth of its Common Stock and had no proceeds from Common Stock issuances. Partially offsetting the aforementioned decrease in net cash provided by financing activities, the Company had net proceeds from debt of $6.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to net debt paydowns of $64.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

On a short-term basis, our principal demands for funds will be for the acquisition of assets, development or repositioning of properties, or re-leasing of space in existing properties, capital expenditures, interest and principal on current and any future debt financings, SBA 7(a) loan originations, paying distributions on our Preferred Stock and Common Stock and making redemption payments on our Preferred Stock. We may finance our future activities through one or more of the following methods: (i) offerings of shares of Common Stock, preferred stock or other equity and or debt securities of the Company; (ii) credit facilities and term loans; (iii) the addition of senior recourse or non-recourse debt using target acquisitions as well as existing assets as collateral; (iv) the sale of existing assets; and or (v) cash flows from operations. With respect to the $50.0 million outstanding under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility as of August 3, 2022 that is scheduled to mature in October 2022, we are working with a bank to refinance such indebtedness prior to its maturity date. There can, however, be no assurance that such refinancing will occur. In the interim, in order to preserve flexibility with respect to our liquidity, we submitted an extension notice in July 2022 to extend the maturity of the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility to October 2023. The extension is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions that we expect to be able to satisfy (if the refinancing does not occur). In November 2022, holders of the Series L Preferred Stock will have the right to require us to redeem all or any of the shares of Series L Preferred Stock held by such holders. At the same time, we will also have the right to redeem any or all shares of our Series L Preferred Stock. The redemption price, whether the redemption is at the request of a holder or by us, will be equal to 100% of the stated value of the Series L Preferred Stock plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends. We can pay the redemption price, at our option and in our sole discretion, either in cash or in equal value through the issuance of shares of our Common Stock. We do not know whether holders of Series L Preferred Stock will exercise their redemption rights and, if so, in what amounts. We have been actively evaluating our options with respect to whether we will exercise our redemption right with respect to any or all shares of Series L Preferred Stock as well as other alternatives.

Our long-term liquidity needs will consist primarily of funds necessary for acquisitions of assets, development or repositioning of properties, or re-leasing of space in existing properties, capital expenditures, refinancing of indebtedness, SBA 7(a) loan originations, paying distributions on our Preferred Stock or any other preferred stock we may issue, any future repurchase of Common Stock and or redemption of our Preferred Stock (if we choose, or are required, to pay the redemption price in cash instead of in shares of our Common Stock) and distributions on our Common Stock. Additionally, our outstanding commitments to fund loans were $7.1 million as of June 30, 2022, substantially all of which reflect prime-based loans to be originated by our subsidiary engaged in SBA 7(a) Small Business Loan Program lending. The majority of these commitments have government guarantees of 75% (as the government guarantee has now reverted to 75% from 90%) and we believe that we will be able to sell the guaranteed portion of these loans in a liquid secondary market upon fully funding these loans. Since

47

some commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

We may not have sufficient funds on hand or may not be able to obtain additional financing to cover all of our long-term cash requirements. The nature of our business, and the requirements imposed by REIT rules that we distribute a substantial majority of our REIT taxable income on an annual basis in the form of dividends, may cause us to have substantial liquidity needs over the long-term. While we will seek to satisfy such needs through one or more of the methods described in the first paragraph of this section, our ability to take such actions is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, and could be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the effects of COVID-19 and other risks detailed in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of the 2021 Form 10-K. If we cannot obtain funding for our long-term liquidity needs, our assets may generate lower cash flows or decline in value, or both, which may cause us to sell assets at a time when we would not otherwise do so which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations or to maintain our level of distributions on our Common Stock or Preferred Stock.

Sources and Uses of Funds

Mortgages

We have one mortgage loan agreement with an outstanding balance of $97.1 million as of June 30, 2022.

Revolving Credit Facilities

In October 2018, we entered into the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility that, as amended, allows us to borrow up to $209.5 million, subject to a borrowing base calculation. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the variable interest rate was 3.72% and 2.15%, respectively. The 2018 revolving credit facility matures in October 2022 and provides for one one-year extension option under certain conditions, including providing notice of the election and paying an extension fee of 0.15% of each lender’s commitment being extended on the effective date of such extension. We expect to extend its maturity to October 2023, subject to satisfying certain conditions, and/or refinance such indebtedness. Based on our projected performance and current capital market conditions, we expect that we will be able to implement either or both options. As of August 3, 2022, June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, $50.0 million, $75.0 million and $60.0 million, respectively, was outstanding under the 2018 revolving credit facility and approximately $150.9 million, $125.9 million, and $117.6 million, respectively, was available for future borrowings.

In June 2020, we commenced borrowing funds from the Federal Reserve through the PPPLF. Advances under the PPPLF carry an interest rate of 0.35%, are made on a dollar-for-dollar basis based on the amount of loans originated under the PPP and are secured by loans made by us under the PPP. The PPPLF contains customary covenants but is not subject to any financial covenants. The maturity date of PPPLF borrowings is the same as the maturity date of the loans pledged to secure the extension of credit, generally two years. At maturity, both principal and accrued interest are due. The maturity date of a PPPLF borrowing will be accelerated if, among other things, we have been reimbursed by the SBA for a loan forgiveness (to the extent of the forgiveness), we have received payment from the SBA representing exercise of the loan guarantee or we have received payment from the underlying borrower (to the extent of the payment received). We borrowed money under the PPPLF to finance all the loans we originated under the PPP. As of June 30, 2022, $205,000 was outstanding under the PPPLF.

Other Financing Activity

On May 30, 2018, we completed a securitization of the unguaranteed portion of certain of our SBA 7(a) loans receivable with the issuance of $38.2 million of unguaranteed SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes. The SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes mature on March 20, 2043, with monthly payments due as payments on the collateralized loans are received. Based on the anticipated repayments of our collateralized SBA 7(a) loans, at issuance, we estimated the weighted average life of the SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes to be approximately two years. The SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes bear interest at the lower of the one-month LIBOR plus 1.40% or the prime rate less 1.08%. The outstanding balance of SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes on August 3, 2022, June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, was $3.8 million, $4.0 million and $7.7 million, respectively.

We have junior subordinated notes with a variable interest rate that resets quarterly based on the three-month LIBOR plus 3.25%, with quarterly interest‑only payments. The junior subordinated balance is due at maturity on March 30, 2035. The junior subordinated notes may be redeemed at par at our option. The aggregate principal balance of the junior subordinated notes was $27.1 million as of June 30, 2022.

As an SBA 7(a) licensee, we are an authorized lender under the PPP and originated loans under the program. As of June 30, 2022, we had $205,000 outstanding in PPP loans. We expect that all of the outstanding PPP loans will be forgiven, either in part or in full, by the SBA or be repaid by the borrower, including both principal and accrued interest.

Securities Offerings

We conducted a continuous public offering of Series A Preferred Units from October 2016 through January 2020, where each Series A Preferred Unit consisted of one share of Series A Preferred Stock and one Series A Preferred Warrant. During the tenure of the offering, we issued 4,603,287 Series A Preferred Units and received net proceeds of $105.2 million after commissions, fees and allocated costs.

The Series A Preferred Warrants are exercisable beginning on the first anniversary of the date of their original issuance until and including the fifth anniversary of the date of such issuance. At the time of issuance, the exercise price of each Series A Preferred Warrant was equal to a 15.0% premium to the per share estimated NAV of our Common Stock most recently published and designated as the applicable NAV by us at the time of issuance. However, in accordance with the terms of the Series A Preferred Warrants, the exercise price of each Series A Preferred Warrant issued prior to the Reverse Stock Split was automatically adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split and, in the discretion of our Board of Directors, the exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of each Series A Preferred Warrant issued prior to the Special Dividend was adjusted to reflect the effect of the Special Dividend. As of June 30, 2022, there were 4,294,512 Series A Preferred Warrants to purchase 1,113,569 shares of Common Stock outstanding.

From February 2020 through June 2022, we conducted a continuous public offering of our Series A Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock. In June 2022, we concluded the offering of our Series A Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock and have since conducted a continuous public offering of our Series A1 Preferred Stock of up to approximately $692.3 million. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offerings for general corporate purposes, acquisitions of shares of our Common Stock and Preferred Stock, whether through one or more tender offers, share repurchases or otherwise, and acquisitions consistent with our acquisition and asset management strategies. As of June 30, 2022, we had issued 192,440 shares of Series A1 Preferred Stock, 8,251,657 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 56,857 shares of Series D Preferred Stock and received aggregate net proceeds of $192.2 million after commissions, fees and allocated costs.

On March 16, 2020, we established an “at the market” (“ATM”) program through which we may, from time to time in our discretion, offer and sell shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $25.0 million through an investment banking firm acting as the sales agent. Sales of Common Stock under the ATM program may be made directly on or through Nasdaq, among other methods. We intend to use the net proceeds from shares sold under the ATM program, if any, for general corporate purposes, acquisitions of shares of our Preferred Stock, whether through one or more tender offers, share repurchases or otherwise, and acquisitions consistent with our acquisition and asset management strategies. As of August 3, 2022, no sales of Common Stock have been made under the ATM program.

Dividends on and Redemptions of Preferred Stock

Holders of Series A1 Preferred Stock, Series A Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series L Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, if, as and when authorized by our Board of Directors, and declared by us out of legally available funds, cumulative cash dividends on each share as follows: (1) at the of greater of (i) an annual rate of 6.0% of the Series A1 Preferred Stock Stated Value (i.e., the equivalent of $0.3750 per share per quarter) and (ii) the Federal Funds (Effective) Rate for such quarter and plus 2.5% of the Series A1 Preferred Stock Stated Value divided by four, up to a maximum of 2.5% of the Series A1 Preferred Stock Stated Value per quarter, (2) 5.50% of the Series A Preferred Stock Stated Value (i.e., the equivalent of $0.34375 per share per quarter), (3) 5.65% of the Series D Preferred Stock Stated Value (i.e., the equivalent of $0.35313 per share per quarter), and (4) 5.50% of the Series L Preferred Stock Stated Value (i.e., the equivalent of $1.56035 per share per year), respectively. However, if we fail to timely declare distributions or fail to timely pay any distribution on the Series L Preferred Stock, the annual dividend rate of the Series L Preferred Stock will temporarily increase by 1.00% per year, up to a maximum annual rate of 8.50% of the Series L Preferred Stock Stated Value. Dividends on each share of Preferred Stock begin accruing on, and are cumulative from, the date of issuance. Prior to the payment of any distributions on Series L Preferred Stock in respect of a given year, we must first declare and pay dividends on the Common Stock in respect of such year in an aggregate amount equal to the Initial Dividend announced by our Board of Directors at the end of the prior fiscal year. On December 29, 2021, we announced an Initial Dividend on shares of our Common Stock for fiscal year 2022 in the aggregate amount of $7,010,799, of which $3,972,000 had been paid as of June 30, 2022.

We expect to pay dividends on the Series A1 Preferred Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock in arrears on a monthly basis, and on the Series L Preferred Stock in arrears on a yearly basis, unless our results of operations, our general financing conditions, general economic conditions, applicable requirements of the MGCL or other factors make it imprudent to do so. The timing and amount of dividends declared and paid on our Preferred Stock will be determined by our Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, and may vary from time to time.

Holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, if, as and when authorized by the Board of Directors and declared by us out of legally available funds. In determining our dividend policy, the Board of Directors considers many

49

factors including the amount of cash resources available for dividend distributions, capital spending plans, cash flow, our financial position, applicable requirements of the MGCL, any applicable contractual restrictions, and future growth in NAV and cash flow per share prospects. Consequently, the dividend rate on a quarterly basis does not necessarily correlate directly to any individual factor.

From the date of issuance until the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance, holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock may require us to redeem such shares at a discount to the Series A1 Preferred Stock, Series A Preferred Stated Value and Series D Preferred Stated Value, respectively. From and after the fifth anniversary of the date of original issuance of any share of our Preferred Stock, we generally (subject to certain conditions) have the right (but not the obligation) to redeem, and the holder of such share may require us to redeem, such share at a redemption price equal to 100% of the stated value of such share, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends in respect of such share as of the effective date of the redemption. The redemption price in respect of any share of Preferred Stock, whether redeemed at our option or at the option of a holder, may be paid in cash or in shares of Common Stock in our sole discretion. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we redeemed 88,225 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and no shares of Series A1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series L Preferred Stock.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The fair value of our mortgage payable is sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates. Discounted cash flow analysis is generally used to estimate the fair value of our mortgage payable, using a rate of 5.23% and 3.22% as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our mortgage payable had a book value of $97.1 million, and a fair value of $93.3 million and $100.8 million, respectively.

Our future income, cash flow and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. We are exposed to market risk in the form of changes in interest rates and the potential impact such changes may have on the cash flows from our floating rate debt or the fair values of our fixed rate debt. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (excluding premiums, discounts, and deferred loan costs), $97.3 million (or 46.4%) and $102.1 million (or 50.2%) of our debt, respectively, was fixed rate borrowings, and $112.3 million (or 53.6%) and $101.4 million (or 49.8%), respectively, was floating rate borrowings. Based on the level of floating rate debt outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, a 50 basis point change in LIBOR would result in an annual impact to our earnings of approximately $562,000 and $507,000, respectively. We calculate interest rate sensitivity by multiplying the amount of floating rate debt by the respective change in rate. The sensitivity analysis does not take into consideration possible changes in the balances or fair value of our floating rate debt.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, regarding the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, as of June 30, 2022, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded, as of that time, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms and include controls and procedures designed to ensure the information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

We are not currently involved in any material pending or threatened legal proceedings nor, to our knowledge, are any material legal proceedings currently threatened against us, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In the normal course of business, we are periodically party to certain legal actions and proceedings involving matters that are generally incidental to our business. While the outcome of these legal actions and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, in management’s opinion, the resolution of these legal proceedings and actions will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations or to maintain our level of distributions on our Common Stock or Preferred Stock.
