| SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, REIT Holdings III, the Operating Partnership and their direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of prior periods. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company sold one office property and one mixed-use office/retail property. As a result, certain assets and liabilities related to these properties were reclassified to held for sale on the consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) for each of the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was equal to net income (loss) for these respective periods. Revenue Recognition - Operating Leases Real Estate The Company recognizes minimum rent, including rental abatements, lease incentives and contractual fixed increases attributable to operating leases, on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases when collectibility is probable and records amounts expected to be received in later years as deferred rent receivable. 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 the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvement allowance (including amounts that can be taken in the form of cash or a credit against the tenant’s rent) that is funded is treated as a lease incentive and amortized as a reduction of rental revenue over the lease term. Tenant improvement ownership is determined based on various factors including, but not limited to: •whether the lease stipulates how a tenant improvement allowance may be spent; •whether the lessee or lessor supervises the construction and bears the risk of cost overruns; •whether the amount of a tenant improvement allowance is in excess of market rates; •whether the tenant or landlord retains legal title to the improvements at the end of the lease term; •whether the tenant improvements are unique to the tenant or general purpose in nature; and •whether the tenant improvements are expected to have any residual value at the end of the lease. In accordance with ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“Topic 842”), tenant reimbursements for property taxes and insurance are included in the single lease component of the lease contract (the right of the lessee to use the leased space) and therefore are accounted for as variable lease payments and are recorded as rental income on the Company’s statement of operations. In addition, the Company adopted the practical expedient available under Topic 842 to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component and instead to account for those components as a single component if the nonlease components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue recognition standard (Topic 606) and if certain conditions are met, specifically related to tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance which would otherwise be accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The Company believes the two conditions have been met for tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance as (i) the timing and pattern of transfer of the nonlease components and associated lease components are the same and (ii) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease. Accordingly, tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance are also accounted for as variable lease payments and recorded as rental income on the Company’s statement of operations. In accordance with Topic 842, the Company makes a determination of whether the collectibility of the lease payments in an operating lease is probable. If the Company determines the lease payments are not probable of collection, the Company would fully reserve for any contractual lease payments, deferred rent receivable, and variable lease payments and would recognize rental income only to the extent cash has been received. These changes to the Company’s collectibility assessment are reflected as an adjustment to rental income. The Company, as a lessor, records costs to negotiate or arrange a lease that would have been incurred regardless of whether the lease was obtained, such as legal costs incurred to negotiate an operating lease, as an expense and classifies such costs as operating, maintenance, and management expense on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations, as these costs are not capitalizable under the definition of initial direct costs under Topic 842. Sales of Real Estate The Company follows the guidance of ASC 610-20, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (“ASC 610-20”), which applies to sales or transfers to noncustomers of nonfinancial assets or in substance nonfinancial assets that do not meet the definition of a business. Generally, the Company’s sales of real estate would be considered a sale of a nonfinancial asset as defined by ASC 610-20. ASC 610-20 refers to the revenue recognition principles under ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Under ASC 610-20, if the Company determines it does not have a controlling financial interest in the entity that holds the asset and the arrangement meets the criteria to be accounted for as a contract, the Company would derecognize the asset and recognize a gain or loss on the sale of the real estate when control of the underlying asset transfers to the buyer. Real Estate Equity Securities Dividend income from real estate equity securities is recognized on an accrual basis based on eligible units as of the ex-dividend date. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company recognizes interest income on its cash and cash equivalents as it is earned and classifies such amounts as other interest income. Real Estate Depreciation and Amortization Real estate costs related to the acquisition and improvement of properties are capitalized and depreciated over the expected useful life of the asset on a straight-line basis. Repair and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred and significant replacements and betterments are capitalized. Repair and maintenance costs include all costs that do not extend the useful life of the real estate asset. The Company considers the period of future benefit of an asset to determine its appropriate useful life. Expenditures for tenant improvements are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the tenant’s lease term or expected useful life. The Company anticipates the estimated useful lives of its assets by class to be generally as follows:
Impairment of Real Estate and Related Intangible Assets and Liabilities The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable or realized. When indicators of potential impairment suggest that the carrying value of real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities may not be recoverable, the Company assesses the recoverability by estimating whether the Company will recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities through its undiscounted future cash flows and its eventual disposition. If, based on this analysis, the Company does not believe that it will be able to recover the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities, the Company would record an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities. The Company recorded impairment losses of $65.5 million, $6.8 million and $45.5 million on its real estate and related intangible assets during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. See Note 4, “Real Estate — Impairment of Real Estate.” Real Estate Held for Sale The Company generally considers real estate to be “held for sale” when the following criteria are met: (i) management commits to a plan to sell the property, (ii) the property is available for sale immediately, (iii) the property is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value, (iv) the sale of the property within one year is considered probable and (v) significant changes to the plan to sell are not expected. Real estate that is held for sale and its related assets are classified as “real estate held for sale” and “assets related to real estate held for sale,” respectively, for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Notes payable and other liabilities related to real estate held for sale are classified as “notes payable related to real estate held for sale” and “liabilities related to real estate held for sale,” respectively, for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Real estate classified as held for sale is no longer depreciated and is reported at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. Operating results of properties and related gains on sale of properties that were disposed of or classified as held for sale in the ordinary course of business are included in continuing operations on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Real Estate Held for Non-Sale Disposition The Company considers real estate assets that do not meet the criteria for held for sale but are expected to be disposed of other than by sale as real estate held for non-sale disposition. The assets and liabilities related to real estate held for non-sale disposition are included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and the results of operations are presented as part of continuing operations in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. Operating results of properties that will be disposed of other than by sale are included in continuing operations on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations until the ultimate disposition of real estate. Real Estate Equity Securities Real estate equity securities are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices for the security. Unrealized gains and losses on real estate equity securities are recognized in earnings. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents may include cash and short term investments. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. There are no restrictions on the use of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance exceeds federally insurable limits as of December 31, 2025. The Company monitors the cash balances in its operating accounts and adjusts the cash balances as appropriate; however, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail or are subject to other adverse conditions in the financial markets. To date, the Company has experienced no loss or lack of access to cash in its operating accounts. Restricted Cash Restricted cash is composed of lender impound reserve accounts on the Company’s borrowings. In addition, restricted cash includes asset management fees restricted from payment to the Advisor pursuant to the Advisory Agreement and held in a separate account for purposes of the Bonus Retention Fund. See below under, “— Related Party Transactions — Asset Management Fee.” Rents and Other Receivables The Company makes a determination of whether the collectibility of the lease payments in its operating leases is probable. If the Company determines the lease payments are not probable of collection, the Company would fully reserve for any outstanding rent receivables related to contractual lease payments and variable leases payments, would write-off any deferred rent receivable and would recognize rental income only to the extent cash has been received. The Company exercises judgment in assessing collectibility and considers payment history, current credit status, the tenant’s financial condition, security deposits, letters of credit, lease guarantees and current market conditions that may impact the tenant’s ability to make payments in accordance with its lease agreements, including the impact of the continued disruptions in the financial markets on the tenant’s business, in making the determination. Derivative Instruments The Company enters into derivative instruments for risk management purposes to hedge its exposure to cash flow variability caused by changing interest rates on its variable rate notes payable. The Company records these derivative instruments at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The changes in fair value for derivative instruments that are not designated as a hedge or that do not meet the hedge accounting criteria are recorded as gain or loss on derivative instruments and presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Fair Value Election of Hybrid Financial Instruments with Embedded Derivatives When the Company enters into interest rate swaps which include off-market terms, the Company determines if these contracts are hybrid financial instruments with embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation between the host contract and the derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure these hybrid financial instruments in their entirety at fair value with concurrent documentation of this election. Changes in the fair value of the hybrid financial instrument under this fair value election are recorded in earnings and are recorded as gain or loss on derivative instruments in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The cash flows for these off-market swap instruments which contain an other-than-insignificant financing element at inception are included in cash flows provided by or used in financing activities on the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows. Cash Flow Classification of Derivative Settlements The Company classifies proceeds received or amounts paid related to early terminations or settlements of its derivative instruments not designated as hedges for accounting purposes in cash flows from operating activities in the statement of cash flows. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company terminated two interest rate swap agreements and received aggregate settlement proceeds of $6.6 million which was included in net cash flow provided by operating activities in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows. Deferred Financing Costs Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, loan fees, legal fees and other third-party costs associated with obtaining financing and are presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability. These costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity unless specific rules are met that would allow for the carryover of such costs to the refinanced debt. Deferred financing costs incurred before an associated debt liability is recognized are included in prepaid and other assets on the balance sheet. Costs incurred in seeking financing transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close. Fair Value Measurements The Company is required to measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, the Company is required to measure other non-financial and financial assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis (e.g., carrying value of impaired real estate loans receivable and long-lived assets). Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: •Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities; •Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and •Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. When available, the Company utilizes quoted market prices from independent third-party sources to determine fair value and classifies such items in Level 1 or Level 2. In instances where the market for a financial instrument is not active, regardless of the availability of a nonbinding quoted market price, observable inputs might not be relevant and could require the Company to make a significant adjustment to derive a fair value measurement. Additionally, in an inactive market, a market price quoted from an independent third party may rely more on models with inputs based on information available only to that independent third party. When the Company determines the market for a financial instrument owned by the Company to be illiquid or when market transactions for similar instruments do not appear orderly, the Company uses several valuation sources (including internal valuations, discounted cash flow analysis and quoted market prices) and establishes a fair value by assigning weights to the various valuation sources. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach. Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values. In this regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. The Company considers the following factors to be indicators of an inactive market: (i) there are few recent transactions, (ii) price quotations are not based on current information, (iii) price quotations vary substantially either over time or among market makers (for example, some brokered markets), (iv) indexes that previously were highly correlated with the fair values of the asset or liability are demonstrably uncorrelated with recent indications of fair value for that asset or liability, (v) there is a significant increase in implied liquidity risk premiums, yields, or performance indicators (such as delinquency rates or loss severities) for observed transactions or quoted prices when compared with the Company’s estimate of expected cash flows, considering all available market data about credit and other nonperformance risk for the asset or liability, (vi) there is a wide bid-ask spread or significant increase in the bid-ask spread, (vii) there is a significant decline or absence of a market for new issuances (that is, a primary market) for the asset or liability or similar assets or liabilities, and (viii) little information is released publicly (for example, a principal-to-principal market). The Company considers the following factors to be indicators of non-orderly transactions: (i) there was not adequate exposure to the market for a period before the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets or liabilities under current market conditions, (ii) there was a usual and customary marketing period, but the seller marketed the asset or liability to a single market participant, (iii) the seller is in or near bankruptcy or receivership (that is, distressed), or the seller was required to sell to meet regulatory or legal requirements (that is, forced), and (iv) the transaction price is an outlier when compared with other recent transactions for the same or similar assets or liabilities. Dividend Reinvestment Plan The Company had a dividend reinvestment plan pursuant to which common stockholders could elect to have all or a portion of their dividends and other distributions, exclusive of dividends and other distributions that the Company’s board of directors designated as ineligible for reinvestment through the dividend reinvestment plan, reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock in lieu of receiving cash distributions. Participants in the dividend reinvestment plan acquired shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 95% of the estimated value per share of the Company’s common stock, as determined by the Advisor or another firm chosen by the Company’s board of directors for that purpose. On March 15, 2024, the Company’s board of directors approved the termination of the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan. Redeemable Common Stock On March 15, 2024, the Company terminated its share redemption plan. Prior to termination, the Company’s share redemption program enabled stockholders to sell their shares to the Company in limited circumstances. When active, the restrictions of the Company’s share redemption program limited its stockholders’ ability to sell their shares should they require liquidity and limited the stockholders’ ability to recover an amount equal to the Company’s estimated value per share. The Company classifies financial instruments that represent a mandatory obligation of the Company to redeem shares as liabilities. During periods in which the share redemption program was active, the Company’s common shares were considered redeemable at the option of the holder and, accordingly, the Company separately classified an amount equal to the current maximum potential redemption obligation under the share redemption program as redeemable common stock on the consolidated balance sheet. When the Company determined it has a mandatory obligation to repurchase shares under the share redemption program, it reclassified such obligations from temporary equity to a liability based upon their respective settlement values. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not redeem or repurchase any shares of its common stock. Related Party Transactions The Company has entered into the Advisory Agreement with the Advisor. The Company’s Dealer Manager Agreement with the Dealer Manager terminated on March 15, 2024 upon termination of the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan. These agreements entitled the Advisor and/or the Dealer Manager to specified fees upon the provision of certain services with regard to the Offering and reimbursement of organization and offering costs incurred by the Advisor and the Dealer Manager on behalf of the Company and entitle the Advisor to specified fees upon the provision of certain services with regard to the investment of funds in real estate investments, the management of those investments, among other services, and the disposition of investments, and entitle the Advisor to reimbursement of certain costs incurred by the Advisor in providing services to the Company. In addition, the Advisor is entitled to certain other fees, including an incentive fee upon achieving certain performance goals, as detailed in the Advisory Agreement. The Company has also entered into a fee reimbursement agreement (the “AIP Reimbursement Agreement”) with the Dealer Manager pursuant to which the Company agreed to reimburse the Dealer Manager for certain fees and expenses it incurs for administering the Company’s participation in the DTCC Alternative Investment Product Platform with respect to certain accounts of the Company’s investors serviced through the platform. The Advisor and Dealer Manager also served as the advisor and dealer manager, respectively, for KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. (“KBS REIT II”) (liquidated May 2023) and KBS Growth & Income REIT, Inc. (“KBS Growth & Income REIT”) (liquidated August 2024). The Company records all related party fees as incurred, subject to any limitations described in the Advisory Agreement, the Dealer Manager Agreement or the AIP Reimbursement Agreement. See Note 11, “Related Party Transactions.” Operating Expenses Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor has the right to seek reimbursement from the Company for all costs and expenses it incurs in connection with the provision of services to the Company, including the Company’s allocable share of the Advisor’s overhead (such as rent, employee costs and utilities), internal audit personnel costs, internal audit consulting costs, accounting software costs, environmental, social and governance costs and cybersecurity costs. With respect to employee costs, and other than future payments pursuant to the Bonus Retention Fund (defined below), at this time, the Company reimburses the Advisor for the Company’s allocable portion of the salaries, benefits and overhead of internal audit department personnel providing services to the Company. The Company currently does not reimburse the Advisor for employee costs in connection with services for which the Advisor earns acquisition, origination or disposition fees (other than reimbursement of travel and communication expenses), and other than further payments pursuant to the Bonus Retention Fund, the Company does not reimburse the Advisor for the salaries and benefits the Advisor or its affiliates may pay to the Company’s executive officers and affiliated directors. In addition, the Company reimburses the Advisor for certain of the Company’s direct costs incurred from third parties that were initially paid by the Advisor on behalf of the Company. Asset Management Fees For asset management services, the Company pays the Advisor a monthly fee. With respect to investments in real property, the asset management fee is a monthly fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.75% of the amount paid or allocated to acquire the investment, plus the cost of any subsequent development, construction or improvements to the property. This amount includes any portion of the investment that was debt financed and is inclusive of acquisition expenses related thereto (but excludes acquisition fees paid to the Advisor). In the case of investments made through joint ventures, the asset management fee is determined based on the Company’s proportionate share of the underlying investment (but excluding acquisition fees paid to the Advisor). With respect to investments in loans and any investments other than real property, the asset management fee is a monthly fee calculated, each month, as one-twelfth of 0.75% of the lesser of (i) the amount actually paid or allocated to acquire or fund the loan or other investment (which amount includes any portion of the investment that was debt financed and is inclusive of acquisition or origination expenses related thereto, but is exclusive of acquisition or origination fees paid to the Advisor) and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of such loan or other investment, plus the acquisition or origination expenses related to the acquisition or funding of such investment (excluding acquisition or origination fees paid to the Advisor), as of the time of calculation. The Company currently does not pay any asset management fees in connection with the Company’s investment in the equity securities of the SREIT. On November 22, 2024, the Advisor entered into a Management Fee and Disposition Fee Subordination Agreement (the “Subordination Agreement”) in favor of U.S. Bank National Association (the “Credit Facility Agent”) as agent for the lenders under the credit facility that was entered on July 30, 2021 (as subsequently modified and amended, the “Credit Facility”) among an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“REIT Properties III”), the Credit Facility Agent and the lenders party thereto (the “Credit Facility Lenders”). Pursuant to the Subordination Agreement, the Advisor agreed that payment of certain asset management fees owed by the Company to the Advisor pursuant to the Advisory Agreement will be subordinate to the obligations of REIT Properties III to the Credit Facility Lenders under the Credit Agreement (such obligations, the “Senior Debt”). Specifically, payment of asset management fees to the Advisor associated with five of the Company’s real estate properties (Carillon, 515 Congress, Gateway Tech Center, 201 17th Street and Accenture Tower) is subordinated to the Senior Debt until the Senior Debt is paid in full, provided that the Company may pay the Advisor 90% of the asset management fees associated with these five properties so long as an “Event of Default” under the Credit Facility is not in existence or would not result from such payment. For the avoidance of doubt, the remaining 10% of the asset management fees associated with these properties is subordinated and deferred until the Senior Debt is paid in full. Additionally, pursuant to the Fourth Modification Agreement (as defined in Note 14, “Subsequent Events – Fourth Modification of the Modified Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility”), with respect to 515 Congress, Gateway Tech Center and 201 17th Street, the Company agreed to limit the amount of asset management fees that may be paid by the Company to the Advisor to 90% of the asset management fees associated with 515 Congress, Gateway Tech Center and 201 17th Street (with the remaining 10% of the asset management fees associated with these properties being deferred until the obligations under the Modified Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility have been paid in full). In connection with the Accenture Tower Fourth Modification Agreement, on December 20, 2024, the Company and the Advisor entered into an amendment to the Advisory Agreement to defer 10% of the asset management fees associated with Accenture Tower until the Accenture Tower Loan is paid in full; provided, that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a restricted payment event under the loan agreement, all asset management fees with respect to Accenture Tower will be deferred and during the restricted payment event, such deferred fees may only be paid to the Advisor with the consent of the required lenders. Further, in connection with the Eighth Modification Agreement to the Amended and Restated Portfolio Loan Facility, on February 6, 2025, the Company and the Advisor entered into an amendment to the Advisory Agreement to defer 10% of the asset management fees associated with 60 South Sixth, Sterling Plaza, Towers at Emeryville, Ten Almaden and Town Center until the obligations under the Amended and Restated Portfolio Loan Facility are paid in full, or the requirements to pay such deferred fees are met during the extension period of the loan; provided that no asset management fees with respect to 60 South Sixth, Sterling Plaza, Towers at Emeryville, Ten Almaden and Town Center may be paid during the occurrence and continuance of a default or potential default under the Amended and Restated Portfolio Loan Facility for which the Company has received notice that has not been waived or cured. The Company sold Sterling Plaza on July 11, 2025 and Sterling Plaza was released as security for the Amended and Restated Portfolio Loan Facility. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on November 8, 2022, the Company and the Advisor amended the advisory agreement and commencing with asset management fees accruing from October 1, 2022, the Company paid $1.15 million of the monthly asset management fee to the Advisor in cash and the Company deposited the remainder of the monthly asset management fee into an interest bearing account in the Company’s name, which amounts will be paid to the Advisor from such account solely as reimbursement for payments made by the Advisor pursuant to the Advisor’s employee retention program (such account, the “Bonus Retention Fund”). The Bonus Retention Fund was established in order to incentivize and retain key employees of the Advisor. The Bonus Retention Fund was fully funded in December 2023 when the Company had deposited $8.5 million in cash into such account. Following such time and except as described herein, the monthly asset management fee became fully payable in cash to the Advisor. The Advisor has acknowledged and agreed that payments by the Advisor to employees under the Advisor’s employee retention program that are reimbursed by the Company from the Bonus Retention Fund will be conditioned on (a) the Company’s liquidation and dissolution; (b) a transaction involving the acquisition, merger, conversion or consolidation, either directly or indirectly, of the Company in which (i) the Company is not the surviving entity and (ii) the Advisor is no longer serving as an advisor or asset manager to the surviving entity in such transaction; (c) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; (d) the non-renewal or termination of the Advisory Agreement without cause; or (e) the termination of the employee without cause. To the extent the Bonus Retention Fund is not fully paid out to employees as set forth above, the Advisory Agreement provides that the residual amount will be deemed additional Deferred Asset Management Fees (defined below) and be treated in accordance with the provisions for payment of Deferred Asset Management Fees. Two of the Company’s executive officers, Jeff Waldvogel and Stacie Yamane, and one of the Company’s directors, Marc DeLuca, participate in and have been allocated awards under the Advisor’s employee retention program, which awards would only be paid as set forth above. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had deposited $8.5 million of restricted cash into the Bonus Retention Fund and the Company had not made any payments to the Advisor from the Bonus Retention Fund. Prior to amending the Advisory Agreement in November 2022, the prior advisory agreement had provided that with respect to asset management fees accruing from March 1, 2014, the Advisor would defer, without interest, the Company’s obligation to pay asset management fees for any month in which the Company’s modified funds from operations (“MFFO”) for such month, as such term is defined in the practice guideline issued by the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives (“IPA”) in November 2010 and interpreted by the Company, excluding asset management fees, did not exceed the amount of distributions declared by the Company for record dates of that month. The Company remained obligated to pay the Advisor an asset management fee in any month in which the Company’s MFFO, excluding asset management fees, for such month exceeded the amount of distributions declared for the record dates of that month (such excess amount, an “MFFO Surplus”); however, any amount of such asset management fee in excess of the MFFO Surplus was deferred under the prior advisory agreement. If the MFFO Surplus for any month exceeded the amount of the asset management fee payable for such month, any remaining MFFO Surplus was applied to pay any asset management fee amounts previously deferred in accordance with the prior advisory agreement. Pursuant to the current Advisory Agreement, asset management fees accruing from October 1, 2022 are no longer subject to the deferral provision described in the paragraph above. Asset management fees that remained deferred as of September 30, 2022 are “Deferred Asset Management Fees.” As of September 30, 2022, Deferred Asset Management Fees totaled $8.5 million and the Company had not made any payments to the Advisor related to the Deferred Asset Management Fees for the period from October 1, 2022 to December 31, 2025. The Advisory Agreement also provides that the Company remains obligated to pay the Advisor outstanding Deferred Asset Management Fees in any month to the extent that MFFO for such month exceeds the amount of distributions declared for the record dates of that month (such excess amount, a “RMFFO Surplus”); provided however, that any amount of outstanding Deferred Asset Management Fees in excess of the RMFFO Surplus will continue to be deferred. Consistent with the prior advisory agreement, the current Advisory Agreement provides that notwithstanding the foregoing, any and all Deferred Asset Management Fees that are unpaid will become immediately due and payable at such time as the Company’s stockholders have received, together as a collective group, aggregate distributions (including distributions that may constitute a return of capital for federal income tax purposes) sufficient to provide (i) an 8.0% per year cumulative, noncompounded return on such net invested capital (the “Stockholders’ 8% Return”) and (ii) a return of their net invested capital, or the amount calculated by multiplying the total number of shares purchased by stockholders by the issue price, reduced by any amounts to repurchase shares pursuant to the Company’s share redemption program. The Stockholders’ 8% Return is not based on the return provided to any individual stockholder. Accordingly, it is not necessary for each of the Company’s stockholders to have received any minimum return in order for the Advisor to receive Deferred Asset Management Fees. In addition, the current Advisory Agreement provides that any and all Deferred Asset Management Fees that are unpaid will also be immediately due and payable upon the earlier of: (i) a listing of the Company’s shares of common stock on a national securities exchange; (ii) the Company’s liquidation and dissolution; (iii) a transaction involving the acquisition, merger, conversion or consolidation, either directly or indirectly, of the Company in which (y) the Company is not the surviving entity and (z) the Advisor is no longer serving as an advisor or asset manager to the surviving entity in such transaction; and (iv) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Advisory Agreement has a term expiring on September 27, 2026 but may be renewed for an unlimited number of successive one-year periods upon the mutual consent of the Company and the Advisor. The Advisory Agreement may be terminated (i) upon 60 days written notice without cause or penalty by either the Company (acting through the conflicts committee) or the Advisor or (ii) immediately by the Company for cause or upon the bankruptcy of the Advisor. If the Advisory Agreement is terminated without cause, then the Advisor will be entitled to receive from the Company any residual amount of the Bonus Retention Fund deemed to be additional Deferred Asset Management Fees, provided that upon such non-renewal or termination the Company does not retain an advisor in which the Advisor or its affiliates have a majority interest. Upon termination of the Advisory Agreement, all unpaid Deferred Asset Management Fees will automatically be forfeited by the Advisor, and if the Advisory Agreement is terminated for cause, any residual amount of the Bonus Retention Fund deemed to be additional Deferred Asset Management Fees will also automatically be forfeited by the Advisor. Disposition Fees For substantial assistance in connection with the sale of properties or other investments, the Company pays the Advisor or one of its affiliates 1.0% of the contract sales price of each property or other investment sold; provided, however, that if, in connection with such disposition, commissions are paid to third parties unaffiliated with the Advisor or one of its affiliates, the fee paid to the Advisor or one of its affiliates may not exceed the commissions paid to such unaffiliated third parties, and provided further that the aggregate disposition fees paid to the Advisor or one of its affiliates and unaffiliated third parties may not exceed 6.0% of the contract sales price. The Company will not pay a disposition fee upon the maturity, prepayment or workout of a loan or other debt-related investment, provided that if the Company takes ownership of a property as a result of a workout or foreclosure of a loan, the Company will pay a disposition fee upon the sale of such property. No disposition fees will be paid with respect to any sales of the Company’s investment in units of the SREIT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor has agreed to reduce and defer certain disposition fees. On October 11, 2024, in connection with an amendment to the Amended and Restated Portfolio Loan Facility, the Company and the Advisor amended the Advisory Agreement to reduce the disposition fee payable in connection with the sale of Preston Commons to $0.5 million and to defer payment of the disposition fee to December 1, 2025. On December 5, 2025, the disposition fee related to the sale of Preston Commons was paid to the Advisor. Additionally, pursuant to the Subordination Agreement, with respect to the disposition fees associated with the sale of Carillon, 515 Congress, Gateway Tech Center, 201 17th Street and Accenture Tower, the Advisor agreed that the disposition fees will be reduced to not more than 0.65% of the contract sales price of each property and that payment of such disposition fees to the Advisor is subordinated to the Senior Debt until the Senior Debt is paid in full. Such deferred disposition fees will be set aside and deposited to an interest bearing account under the control of the Credit Facility Agent. Pursuant to the Fourth Modification Agreement, the Company agreed not to pay any disposition fees to the Advisor related to 515 Congress, Gateway Tech Center and 201 17th Street without the consent of the required lenders, except, provided no event of default has occurred and is continuing under the Modified Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility, payment of disposition fees in an amount not to exceed 0.65% of the contract sales price of such properties (with any remaining disposition fees payable to the Advisor related to these properties being deferred until the obligations under the Modified Portfolio Revolving Loan Facility have been paid in full). In connection with the Eighth Modification Agreement, on February 6, 2025, the Company and the Advisor entered into an amendment to the Advisory Agreement to reduce the disposition fees associated with the sales of 60 South Sixth, Sterling Plaza, Towers at Emeryville, Ten Almaden, Town Center, Accenture Tower and The Almaden to 0.65% of the contract sales price of each property, in each case subject to the further limitations contained in the Advisory Agreement and the Company’s charter. Income Taxes The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To continue to qualify as a REIT, the Company must continue to meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of the Company’s annual REIT taxable income to stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that it distributes as dividends to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless the Internal Revenue Service grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially and adversely affect the Company’s net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, the Company believes that it is organized and operates in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT. The Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements. Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries has been assessed interest or penalties by any major tax jurisdictions. The Company’s evaluations were performed for all open tax years through December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the returns for calendar years 2021 through 2024 remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions. Per Share Data Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock equals basic net income (loss) per share of common stock as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Distributions declared per common share were $0.230 during the year ended December 31, 2023. Distributions declared per common share assumes each share was issued and outstanding each day that was a record date for distributions and were based on a monthly record date for each month during the period commencing January 2023 through June 2023. For each monthly record date for distributions during the period from January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2023, distributions were calculated at a rate of $0.03833333 per share. No distributions were declared for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively. Square Footage, Occupancy and Other Measures Square footage, occupancy, number of tenants and other measures, including annualized base rent and annualized base rent per square foot, used to describe real estate investments included in these notes to the consolidated financial statements are presented on an unaudited basis. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Update In November 2024, the FASB issued accounting standards update (“ASU”) No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires public entities to disaggregate, in a tabular presentation, certain income statement expenses into different categories, such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statements and future disclosures but does not expect the adoption of ASU 2024-03 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
