Total returns includes changes in stock price or NAV per share, as applicable, and includes all dividends declared and paid.

Please see the estimated net asset value table on page 28 and see “Net Asset Value (NAV)” under “Important Information” with respect to the methodology of the calculation of the NAV of CMCT on page 32. “U.S. Office REITs” reflects the weighted average historical stock price and NAV performance of the companies included in the SNL US REIT Office Index as of December 31, 2019 based, for all periods indicated, on the weights attributed to each such company by such index as of December 31, 2019. The SNL US REIT Office Index is an index of certain publicly traded office REITs in the United States. The characteristics of the portfolios of assets of such companies included in “U.S. Office REITs” may differ significantly from the characteristics of CMCT’s portfolio of assets. “U.S. Office REITs” may therefore not be an appropriate benchmark for the performance of CMCT. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. The data used in this chart is derived from SNL and filings with the SEC. The amounts of regular and special cash dividends per share are based on the number of shares outstanding as of the applicable record dates. All amounts have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the Reverse Stock Split. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

No shares of Series D preferred stock were outstanding as of December 31, 2019. In May 2018, we completed a securitization of the unguaranteed portion of certain of our SBA 7(a) loans receivable with the issuance of $38,200,000 of unguaranteed SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes. The SBA 7(a) loan-backed notes are collateralized by the right to receive payments and other recoveries attributable to the unguaranteed portions of certain of our SBA 7(a) loans receivable. The 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 notes to be approximately 2 years. In October 2018, we entered into a revolving credit facility with a bank syndicate pursuant to which CMCT can borrow up to a maximum of $250,000,000, subject to a borrowing base calculation. The revolving credit facility is secured by deeds of trust on certain properties. Outstanding advances under the revolving credit facility bear interest at (i) the base rate plus 0.55% or (ii) LIBOR plus 1.55%. The revolving credit facility matures in October 2022 and provides for one one-year extension option under certain conditions. As of March 12, 2020, $159,500,000 was outstanding on the revolving credit facility and approximately $67,400,000 was available for future borrowings.

Key Metrics 29 Lease Expirations as a % of Annualized Office Rent (December 31, 2019)1 Top Five Tenants (December 31, 2019) Represents gross monthly base rent, as of December 31, 2019, 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. Annualized rent for certain office properties includes rent attributable to retail. Prior to February 28, 2023, the tenant may terminate up to 140,000 square feet of space in the aggregate (of which no more than 100,000 rentable square feet may be terminated with respect to the rentable square feet expiring in 2027) in exchange for a termination penalty. From and after February 28, 2023, with respect to the rentable square feet expiring in 2025, and February 28, 2025, with respect to rentable square feet expiring in 2027, the tenant has the right to terminate all or any portion of its lease with CMCT, effective as of any date specified by the tenant in a written notice given to CMCT at least 15 months prior to the termination, in each case in exchange for a termination penalty, the amount of which is dependent on a variety of factors, including but not limited to the date of the termination notice, the amount of the square feet to be terminated and the location within the building of the space to be terminated.

CMCT Important Information

Important Information 32 Assets Owned and Operated (AOO) represents the aggregate assets owned and operated by CIM on behalf of partners (including where CIM contributes alongside for its own account) and co-investors, whether or not CIM has discretion, in each case without duplication. AOO includes total gross assets at fair value, with real assets presented on the basis described in “Book Value” below and operating companies presented at gross assets less debt, as of the Report Date (as defined below) (including the shares of such assets owned by joint venture partners and co-investments), plus binding unfunded commitments. AOO also includes the $0.3 billion of AOO attributable to CIM Compass Latin America (CCLA), which is 50% owned and jointly operated by CIM. AOO for CMMT Partners, L.P. (CMMT) (which represents assets under management), a perpetual-life real estate debt fund, is $1.0 billion as of the Report Date. Report Date is defined to mean as of December 31, 2019. Book Value for each investment generally represents the investment’s book value as reflected in the applicable fund’s unaudited financial statements as of the Report Date prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles on a fair value basis. These book values generally represent the asset’s third-party appraised value as of the Report Date, but in the case of CIM’s Cole Net-Lease Asset strategy, book values generally represent undepreciated cost (as reflected in SEC-filed financial statements). Equity Owned and Operated (EOO) represents the NAV (as defined below) before incentive fee allocation, plus binding unfunded commitments, which is $17.5 billion as of the Report Date, inclusive of $0.3 billion of EOO attributable to CCLA (as described above) and $0.9 billion of EOO for CMMT (which represents equity under management). For calculating the Book Value for CIM IV, the underlying assets of CMCT are assumed to be liquidated based upon the third-party appraised value of such assets. CIM does not view the price of CMCT’s publicly-traded shares to be a meaningful indication of the fair value of CIM IV’s interest in CMCT due to the fact that the publicly-traded shares of CMCT are thinly-traded. Net Asset Value (NAV) represents the distributable amount based on a “hypothetical liquidation” assuming that on the date of determination that: (i) investments are sold at their Book Values; (ii) debts are paid and other assets are collected; and (iii) appropriate adjustments and/or allocations between equity partners are made in accordance with applicable documents, as determined in accordance with applicable accounting guidance.
