Note 1 — Organization and Background

 

One Liberty Properties, Inc. (“OLP”) was incorporated in 1982 in Maryland.  OLP is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”).  OLP acquires, owns and manages a geographically diversified portfolio consisting primarily of industrial, retail, restaurant, health and fitness, and theater properties, many of which are subject to long-term net leases.  As of June 30, 2019, OLP owns 126 properties, including four properties owned by consolidated joint ventures and four properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures. The 126 properties are located in 31 states.

 

Note 2 — Summary Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation/Basis of Preparation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statement disclosures. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in OLP’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

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

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of OLP, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, its joint ventures in which the Company, as defined, has a controlling interest, and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which the Company is the primary beneficiary.  OLP and its consolidated subsidiaries are referred to herein as the “Company”.  Material intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Investment in Joint Ventures and Variable Interest Entities

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, provides guidance for determining whether an entity is a VIE. VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A VIE is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the party that (i) has the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Note 2 — Summary Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

The Company assesses the accounting treatment for each of its investments, including a review of each venture or limited liability company or partnership agreement, to determine the rights of each party and whether those rights are protective or participating. The agreements typically contain certain protective rights, such as the requirement of partner approval to sell, finance or refinance the property and to pay capital expenditures and operating expenditures outside of the approved budget or operating plan. In situations where, among other things, the Company and its partners jointly (i) approve the annual budget, (ii) approve certain expenditures, (iii) prepare or review and approve the joint venture’s tax return before filing, and (iv) approve each lease at a property, the Company does not consolidate as the Company considers these to be substantive participation rights that result in shared, joint power over the activities that most significantly impact the performance of the joint venture or property. Additionally, the Company assesses the accounting treatment for any interests pursuant to which the Company may have a variable interest as a lessor. Leases may contain certain protective rights, such as the right of sale and the receipt of certain escrow deposits.

 

The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. All investments in unconsolidated joint ventures have sufficient equity at risk to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and, as a group, the holders of the equity at risk have power through voting rights to direct the activities of these ventures. As a result, none of these joint ventures are VIEs. In addition, the Company shares power with its co-managing members over these entities, and therefore the entities are not consolidated. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and subsequently adjusted for their share of equity in earnings, cash contributions and distributions. None of the joint venture debt is recourse to the Company, subject to standard carve-outs.

 

The Company periodically reviews its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures for other-than-temporary losses in investment value. Any decline that is not expected to be recovered based on the underlying assets of the investment is considered other than temporary and an impairment charge is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the investment. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, there were no impairment charges related to the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.

 

The Company has elected to follow the cumulative earnings approach when assessing, for the consolidated statement of cash flows, whether the distribution from the investee is a return of the investor’s investment as compared to a return on its investment. The source of the cash generated by the investee to fund the distribution is not a factor in the analysis (that is, it does not matter whether the cash was generated through investee refinancing, sale of assets or operating results). Consequently, the investor only considers the relationship between the cash received from the investee to its equity in the undistributed earnings of the investee, on a cumulative basis, in assessing whether the distribution from the investee is a return on or a return of its investment. Cash received from the unconsolidated entity is presumed to be a return on the investment to the extent that, on a cumulative basis, distributions received by the investor are less than its share of the equity in the undistributed earnings of the entity.

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts previously reported in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation.  Such reclassifications primarily relate to the presentation on the consolidated statement of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 of (i) rental income, net, due to the adoption of a new accounting pronouncement (see Note 3) and (ii) leasehold rent being included as part of Real estate expenses. In addition, the Company changed the presentation of its consolidated statement of changes in equity for the six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 as the Securities and Exchange Commission extended the annual disclosure requirement of changes in stockholders’ equity in Rule 3-04 of Regulation S-X to interim periods, which requires both the year-to-date information and subtotals for each interim period, as part of Release Nos. 33-10532, 34-83875 and IC-33203.

Note 3 - Leases

 

As of January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases , ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements, and ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases , using the modified retrospective approach and elected the package of practical expedients that allows an entity to not reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. Upon adoption, there was no cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2019.

 

As Lessor

 

The Company owns rental properties which are leased to tenants under operating leases with current expirations ranging from 2019 to 2055, with options to extend or terminate the lease or purchase the property exercisable at the option of our tenants. Revenues from such leases are reported as Rental income, net and are comprised of (i) lease components, which includes fixed and variable lease payments and (ii) non-lease components which includes reimbursements of property level operating expenses. The Company adopted the practical expedient offered in ASU No. 2018-11 which allows lessors to not separate non-lease components from the related lease components, as the timing and pattern of transfer are the same, and account for the combined component in accordance with ASC 842.

 

Fixed lease revenues represent the base rent that each tenant is required to pay in accordance with the terms of their respective leases reported on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable term of the lease. Variable lease revenues include payments based on (i) tenant reimbursements, (ii) changes in the index or market-based indices after the inception of the lease, (iii) percentage rents or (iv) the operating performance of the property.  Variable lease revenues are not recognized until the specific events that trigger the variable payments have occurred.

 

The components of lease revenues are as follows (amounts in thousands):

On a quarterly basis, the Company assesses the collectability of substantially all lease payments due under its leases, including unbilled rent receivable balances, by reviewing the tenant’s payment history and financial condition. Changes to such collectability is recognized as a current period adjustment to rental revenue. The Company has assessed the collectability of all lease payments as probable as of June 30, 2019.

Note 3 — Leases (Continued)

 

In many of the Company’s leases, the tenant is obligated to pay the real estate taxes, insurance, and certain other expenses directly to the vendor. These obligations, which have been assumed by the tenants, are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. To the extent any such tenant defaults on its lease or if it is deemed probable that the tenant will fail to pay for such obligations, a liability for such obligations would be recorded.

 

As a lessor, the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, and the related accounting guidance, did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. As a result of the adoption, the Company combined $2,034,000 and $3,978,000 from its Tenant reimbursements line item into Rental income, net, on its consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Note 3 — Leases (Continued)

 

As Lessee

 

The Company is a lessee under a ground lease in Greensboro, North Carolina, which is classified as an operating lease. The lease expires March 3, 2020 and provides for up to five, 5-year renewal options and one seven-month renewal option. On January 1, 2019, upon adoption of ASC 842, the Company recorded a $4,381,000 liability for the obligation to make payments under the lease and a $4,381,000 asset for the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term which were included in other liabilities and other assets, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheet. Lease payments associated with renewal option periods that the Company determined were reasonably certain to be exercised are included in the measurement of the lease liability and right of use asset. The Company applied a discount rate of 4.75%, based on its incremental borrowing rate given the term of the lease, as the rate implicit in the lease is not known.  As of June 30, 2019, the remaining lease term is 10.7 years. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized $131,000 and $262,000, respectively, of lease expense related to this ground lease which is included in Real estate expenses on the consolidated statements of income.

Note 4 — Earnings Per Common Share

 

Basic earnings per share was determined by dividing net income allocable to common stockholders for each period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Net income is also allocated to the unvested restricted stock outstanding during each period, as the restricted stock is entitled to receive dividends and is therefore considered a participating security. As of June 30, 2019, the shares of common stock underlying the restricted stock units (the “RSUs”) awarded under the 2016 Incentive Plan are excluded from the basic earnings per share calculation, as these units are not participating securities.

 

Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other rights exercisable for, or convertible into, common stock were exercised or converted or otherwise resulted in the issuance of common stock that shared in the earnings of the Company.

 

The following table identifies the number of shares of common stock underlying the RSUs that are included in determining the diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock:

(a)          In July 2019, the Company obtained new mortgage debt of $5,200.

 

The Company determined that with respect to each of these acquisitions, the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a single identifiable asset. Therefore, these transactions do not meet the definition of a business and are accounted for as asset acquisitions. As such, direct transaction costs associated with these asset acquisitions have been capitalized to real estate assets and depreciated over their respective useful lives.

Note 6 — Sale of Properties

 

On June 20, 2019, the Company sold a property located in Clemmons, North Carolina and owned by a consolidated joint venture in which the Company held a 90% interest, for $5,314,000, net of closing costs, and paid off the $1,705,000 mortgage. This property accounted for less than 1% of the Company’s rental income, net, during each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The sale resulted in a gain of $1,099,000 which was recorded as Gain on sale of real estate, net, in the consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The non-controlling interest’s share of the gain was $422,000.

Note 7 — Variable Interest Entities, Contingent Liabilities and Consolidated Joint Ventures

 

Variable Interest Entities — Ground Leases

 

The Company determined that with respect to the properties identified in the table below, it has a variable interest through its ground leases and the two owner/operators (which are affiliated with one another) are VIEs because their equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company further determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because the Company has shared power over certain activities that most significantly impact the owner/operator’s economic performance ( i.e. , shared rights on the sale of the property) and therefore, does not consolidate these VIEs for financial statement purposes. Accordingly, the Company accounts for these investments as land and the revenues from the ground leases as Rental income, net. Such rental income amounted to $486,000 and $971,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $941,000 and $1,947,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.  Included in the amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 is rental income of $260,000 and $585,000, respectively, from a previously held VIE property in Lakemoor, Illinois, which the Company sold in September 2018.

(a)          Simultaneously with each purchase, the Company entered into a triple net ground lease with affiliates of Strategic Properties of North America, the owner/operators of these properties.

 

(b)          Simultaneously with the closing of each acquisition, the owner/operator obtained a mortgage from a third party which, together with the Company’s purchase of the land, provided substantially all of the funds to acquire the complex. The Company provided its land as collateral for the respective owner/operator’s mortgage loans; accordingly, each land position is subordinated to the applicable mortgage. No other financial support has been provided by the Company to the owner/operator.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the ground lease for the Wheaton, Illinois property, the owner/operator is obligated to make certain unit renovations as and when units become vacant. Cash reserves to cover such renovation work, received by the Company in conjunction with the purchase of the property, are disbursed when the unit renovations are completed. The related cash reserve balance for this property was $337,000 and $356,000 at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and is classified as Restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets. The Restricted cash balance at December 31, 2018 also included, pursuant to a lease amendment, an escrow deposit of $750,000 from the owner/operator of the Beachwood, Ohio property and was paid in January 2019.

 

Variable Interest Entity — Consolidated Joint Ventures

 

The Company has determined that the four consolidated joint ventures in which it holds between a 90% to 95% interest are VIEs because the non-controlling interests do not hold substantive kick-out or participating rights. The Company has determined it is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact each joint venture’s performance including management, approval of expenditures, and the obligation to absorb the losses or rights to receive benefits.  Accordingly, the Company consolidates the operations of these VIEs for financial statement purposes. The VIEs’ creditors do not have recourse to the assets of the Company other than those held by these joint ventures.

Note 11 — Common Stock Cash Dividend

 

On June 13, 2019, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.45 per share on the Company’s common stock, totaling approximately $8,923,000. The quarterly dividend was paid on July 9, 2019 to stockholders of record on June 25, 2019.

 

Note 12 — Shares Issued through Equity Offering Program

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company sold 143,120 shares for proceeds of $4,308,000, net of commissions of $44,000, and incurred offering costs of $33,000 for professional fees. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company sold 180,120 shares for proceeds of $5,392,000, net of commissions of $54,000, and incurred offering costs of $78,000 for professional fees.

 

Note 13 — Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company’s 2019 Incentive Plan (‘‘Plan’’), approved by the Company’s stockholders in June 2019, permits the Company to grant, among other things, stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, performance share awards and dividend equivalent rights and any one or more of the foregoing to its employees, officers, directors and consultants. A maximum of 750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock is authorized for issuance pursuant to this Plan.  An aggregate of 841,650 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units are outstanding under the Company’s 2016 and 2012 equity incentive plans (collectively, the “Prior Plans”) and have not yet vested.  No additional awards may be granted under the Prior Plans.

 

For accounting purposes, the restricted stock is not included in the shares shown as outstanding on the balance sheet until they vest; however, dividends are paid on the unvested shares. The restricted stock grants are charged to General and administrative expense over the respective vesting periods based on the market value of the common stock on the grant date. Unless earlier forfeited because the participant’s relationship with the Company terminated, unvested restricted stock awards vest on the fifth anniversary of the grant date, and under certain circumstances, may vest earlier.

 

In 2017, 2018 and in July 2019, the Company granted RSUs exchangeable for up to 76,250, 76,250 and 77,776 shares, respectively, of common stock upon satisfaction, through June 30, 2020, June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2022, respectively, of specified conditions. Specifically, up to 50% of these RSUs vest upon achievement of metrics related to average annual total stockholder return (the “TSR Awards”), which metrics meet the definition of a market condition, and up to 50% vest upon achievement of metrics related to average annual return on capital (the “ROC Awards”), which metrics meet the definition of a performance condition.  The holders of the RSUs are not entitled to dividends or to vote the underlying shares until such RSUs vest and shares are issued.  Accordingly, the shares underlying these RSUs are not included in the shares shown as outstanding on the balance sheet. For the TSR awards, a third party appraiser prepared a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model to determine the fair value, which is recognized ratably over the service period. For the ROC Awards, the fair value is based on the market value on the date of grant and the performance assumptions are re-evaluated quarterly.

Note 14 — Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company measures the fair value of financial instruments based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, a fair value hierarchy distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions.  In accordance with the fair value hierarchy, Level 1 assets/liabilities are valued based on quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets, Level 2 assets/liabilities are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, on quoted prices in less active or inactive markets, or on other “observable” market inputs and Level 3 assets/liabilities are valued based significantly on “unobservable” market inputs.

 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, escrow, deposits and other assets and receivables (excluding interest rate swaps), dividends payable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities (excluding interest rate swaps), are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but are considered to be recorded at amounts that approximate fair value.

Note 14 — Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

 

At June 30, 2019, the $446,700,000 estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is more than their $438,503,000 carrying value (before unamortized deferred financing costs) by approximately $8,197,000 assuming a blended market interest rate of 4.0% based on the 8.2 year weighted average remaining term to maturity of the mortgages.  At December 31, 2018, the $420,396,000 estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is less than their $423,096,000 carrying value (before unamortized deferred financing costs) by approximately $2,700,000 assuming a blended market interest rate of 4.41% based on the 8.7 year weighted average remaining term to maturity of the mortgages.

 

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying amount of the Company’s line of credit (before unamortized deferred financing costs) of $32,150,000 and $30,000,000, respectively, approximates its fair value.

 

The fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable and line of credit are estimated using unobservable inputs such as available market information and discounted cash flow analysis based on borrowing rates the Company believes it could obtain with similar terms and maturities. These fair value measurements fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value.  The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The Company does not own any financial instruments that are measured on a recurring basis and that are classified as Level 1 or 3.

 

The Company’s objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

 

Fair values are approximated using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivatives. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities.

Note 14 — Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

 

Although the Company has determined the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with it use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparty. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has assessed and determined the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions is not significant. As a result, the Company determined its derivative valuation is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had entered into 26 interest rate derivatives, all of which were interest rate swaps, related to 26 outstanding mortgage loans with an aggregate $113,733,000 notional amount and mature between 2019 and 2028 (weighted average remaining term to maturity of 5.4 years).  Such interest rate swaps, all of which were designated as cash flow hedges, converted LIBOR based variable rate mortgages to fixed annual rate mortgages (with interest rates ranging from 3.02% to 5.38% and a weighted average interest rate of 4.12% at June 30, 2019).  The fair values of the Company’s derivatives in asset and liability positions are reflected as other assets or other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company (including one of its unconsolidated joint ventures) discontinued hedge accounting on two interest rate swaps as the forecasted hedged transactions were no longer probable of occurring. As a result, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company reclassified $41,000 and $110,000 of realized loss and gain, respectively, from Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income to earnings.  No gain or loss was recognized with respect to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on the Company’s cash flow hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Note 14 — Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

 

During the twelve months ending June 30, 2020, the Company estimates an additional $355,000 will be reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income as an increase to Interest expense.

 

The derivative agreements in effect at June 30, 2019 provide that if the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company which is a party to the agreement defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then a default can be declared on such subsidiary’s derivative obligation. In addition, the Company is a party to the derivative agreements and if there is a default by the subsidiary on the loan subject to the derivative agreement to which the Company is a party and if there are swap breakage losses on account of the derivative being terminated early, the Company could be held liable for such swap breakage losses.

 

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair value of the derivatives in a liability position, including a net accrued interest receivable of $16,000 and an accrued interest payable of $8,000, respectively, but excluding any adjustments for non-performance risk, was approximately $2,457,000 and $554,000, respectively.  In the event the Company had breaches of any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contracts, it would be required to settle its obligations thereunder at their termination liability value of $2,457,000 and $554,000 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.  This termination liability value, net of adjustments for non-performance risk of $146,000 and $41,000, is included in Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

 

Note 15 — New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements as part of its disclosure framework project. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. An entity is permitted to early adopt either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements.  The Company is evaluating the new guidance to determine if, and to the extent, it will impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance replaces the current “incurred loss” model with an “expected loss” approach. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted after December 2018. The Company is evaluating the new guidance to determine if, and to the extent, it will impact the consolidated financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provision for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and include this statement for purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions.  Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “could,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” or similar expressions or variations thereof.  Forward-looking statements should not be relied on since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond our control and which could materially affect actual results, performance or achievements.  Investors are encouraged to review the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 under the caption “Item 1A. Risk Factors” for a discussion of certain factors which may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

We are a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT, incorporated in Maryland in 1982.  To qualify as a REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute currently at least 90% of ordinary taxable income to our stockholders.  We intend to comply with these requirements and to maintain our REIT status.

 

We acquire, own and manage a geographically diversified portfolio consisting primarily of industrial, retail (including furniture stores and supermarkets), restaurant, health and fitness and theater properties, many of which are subject to long-term net leases.  As of June 30, 2019, we own 126 properties (including four properties owned by consolidated joint ventures and four properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures) located in 31 states.  Based on square footage, our occupancy rate at June 30, 2019 is approximately 96.6%.

 

We face a variety of risks and challenges in our business. Among other things, we face the possibility that we will not be able to acquire accretive properties on acceptable terms, lease our properties on terms favorable to us or at all, our tenants may be unable to pay their rental and other obligations and we may be unable to renew or relet, on acceptable terms, leases that are expiring or otherwise terminating.

 

We seek to manage the risk of our real property portfolio and the related financing arrangements by diversifying among types of properties, industries, locations, tenants, scheduled lease expirations, mortgage maturities and lenders, and by seeking to minimize our exposure to interest rate fluctuations.  Substantially all of our mortgage debt either bears interest at fixed rates or is subject to interest rate swaps, limiting our exposure to fluctuating interest rates on our outstanding mortgage debt.

Table of Contents

 

We monitor the risk of tenant non-payments through a variety of approaches tailored to the applicable situation. Generally, based on our assessment of the credit risk posed by our tenants, we monitor a tenant’s financial condition through one or more of the following actions: reviewing tenant financial statements or other financial information, obtaining other tenant related information, regular contact with tenant’s representatives, tenant credit checks and regular management reviews of our tenants. We may sell a property if the tenant’s financial condition is unsatisfactory.

 

In acquiring properties, we balance an evaluation of the terms of the leases and the credit of the existing tenants with a fundamental analysis of the real estate to be acquired, which analysis takes into account, among other things, the estimated value of the property, local demographics and the ability to re-rent or dispose of the property on favorable terms upon lease expiration or early termination.

 

We are sensitive to the risks facing the retail industry as a result of the growth of e-commerce. We are addressing our exposure to the retail industry by emphasizing the acquisition of industrial properties and by being especially selective in acquiring retail properties.  Approximately 47.6% of our contractual rental income (as described below) is derived from industrial properties and 35.3%, 4.8%, 4.4%, 3.2%, 3.0% and 1.7% from retail, restaurant, health and fitness, theaters, residential ground leases and other properties, respectively.

 

Our 2019 contractual rental income is approximately $72.0 million and represents, after giving effect to any abatements, concessions or adjustments, the base rent payable to us during the twelve months ending June 30, 2020 under leases in effect at June 30, 2019. Contractual rental income excludes: (i) approximately $884,000 of straight-line rent and $738,000 of amortization of intangibles; and (ii) our share of the rental income payable to our unconsolidated joint ventures, which is approximately $1.6 million.

Property Transactions During the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we acquired four industrial properties for an aggregate purchase price of $27.0 million, including $328,000 of transaction costs that were capitalized. These acquisitions contributed $137,000 of rental income, net, and $79,000 of depreciation and amortization expense during the three months ended June 30, 2019.  We estimate that commencing July 1, 2019, the aggregate quarterly rental income (excluding variable lease revenues) and depreciation and amortization expense from these properties will be $502,000 and $239,000, respectively .

 

On June 20, 2019, we sold a retail property located in Clemmons, North Carolina and owned by a consolidated joint venture in which we held a 90% interest, for $5.3 million, net of closing costs, and paid off the $1.7 million mortgage.  We recognized a gain of $1.1 million, of which the non-controlling interest’s share was $422,000.  This property contributed $391,000 and $361,000 of rental income, net, $49,000 and $83,000 of depreciation and amortization expense and $80,000 and $41,000 of mortgage interest expense in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Property Transaction Subsequent to June 30, 2019

 

On July 24, 2019, we purchased an industrial property in LaGrange, Georgia for $5.2 million. We estimate that commencing August 1, 2019, the quarterly rental income (excluding variable lease revenues) from this property will be $86,000.

 

Amendment of Credit Facility

 

On July 1, 2019, we and our lenders amended our credit facility to extend its expiration date to December 31, 2022 and increase the aggregate amount that may be used thereunder for renovation and operating expense purposes.  In connection with the amendment, we incurred a $550,000 commitment fee which will be amortized over the remaining term of the facility. See “- Liquidity and Capital Resources-Credit Facility.”

 

Challenges and Uncertainties Facing Certain Tenants and Properties

 

We describe below certain risks and uncertainties associated with tenants and properties that are experiencing financial or other challenges.

 

Our tenant at an assisted living facility in Round Rock, Texas, which we refer to as the Round Rock Property, filed for bankruptcy protection in December 2018 and though they subsequently rejected the lease, the tenant-debtor continues to occupy the property.  At June 30, 2019, the net book value and mortgage debt associated with this property was $15.9 million and $13.3 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we paid principal mortgage payments of $196,000 and incurred costs of $678,000 ( i.e. , mortgage interest of $364,000 and legal fees of approximately $314,000) for this property and may continue to incur significant costs for an extended period.  We were not paid rent for November and December 2018 ( i.e., an aggregate of $344,000), and have not been paid use and occupancy payments since March 2019.  We received several offers to buy the property from Licensed Operators ( i.e. , a person licensed to manage this type of facility) and have entered into

Table of Contents

 

contract negotiations with a prospective purchaser. Our ability to sell this property may be constrained by, among other things, the tenant-debtor which may impede the contemplated sale, the number of competing assisted living facilities in the area and state regulatory requirements mandating that assisted living facilities be operated by a Licensed Operator. We commenced litigation against the tenant-debtor and the guarantors of the lease seeking, among other things, recovery for the damages we have and continue to incur.  We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to sell this property or that we will be successful in any litigation seeking compensation for the damages we incur.

 

A multi-family complex, which we refer to as The Vue, ground leases from us the underlying land located in Beachwood, Ohio.  As a result of a reduction in the occupancy rate at the complex, we and the owner/operator of The Vue, reduced the annual base rent payable to us in 2019 to $783,000 from the base rent of $1.6 million in 2018.  At June 30, 2019, (i) the occupancy rate (based on the number of occupied units) at The Vue was 77.0% (compared to 72.1% at December 31, 2018), (ii) there are no unbilled rent receivables, intangibles or tenant origination costs associated with this property and (ii) the net book value of our land subject to this ground lease is $13.9 million and is subordinate to $67.4 million of mortgage debt incurred by the owner/operator. Unlike most of our tenancies, the owner/operator is responsible for the property’s current monthly mortgage interest payments of $228,000 — the interest only period with respect to such mortgage expires August 2020. See “ - Off Balance Sheet Arrangements” and Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements.

 

We are pursuing a re-development of a community shopping center located in Manahawkin, New Jersey (the “Manahawkin Property”), which is owned by an unconsolidated joint venture in which we have a 50% equity interest.  At December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019, the occupancy rate (based on square footage) was approximately 52.4%.  As a result of, among other things, vacancies at the property (including vacancies resulting from the re-development process), we estimate that our share of the base rent payable to be generated at this property will be approximately $695,000 in the six months ending December 31, 2019.  Our share of the base rent in the corresponding period of the prior year was $826,000. We believe that during the re-development period, cash flow from the operations at this property will cover a significant portion of the property’s carrying costs and debt service obligations and that any shortfall will be covered by the cash available to the joint venture and capital contributions to the venture by us and our joint venture partner. We estimate that the redevelopment will be substantially complete and the property stabilized after 2022.  See “ - Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

 

A retail property located in Crystal Lake, Illinois has been vacant for the past two years. At June 30, 2019, the net book value of, and mortgage debt on, the property was $2.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively.  The mortgage on this property was paid off in July 2019.  We estimate that the carrying costs with respect to this property for the six months ending December 31, 2019 will be approximately $77,000.

 

A tenant operating a supermarket at a property located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania advised us in late July 2019 that it intends to cease operations. At June 30, 2019, the unbilled rent receivable, net book value and mortgage debt associated with this property was $375,000, $6.8 million, and $4.0 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, rental income for this property was $281,000 and $248,000, respectively, and total operating expenses were $155,000 and $133,000, respectively. Contractual rental income payable with respect to this property for the 12 months ending June 30, 2020 is $420,000. We estimate that the carrying costs (including $66,000 of interest expense) associated with this property for the five months ending December 31, 2019 will be approximately $150,000.

 

We may be adversely affected if, among other things, (i) any of these tenants reduce, defer, or do not pay the rent (or use and occupancy) payments due us or do not pay the operating expenses of the property for which they are responsible, (ii) the owner/operator of The Vue fails to pay required mortgage payments when due, (iii) we sell our interest in any of these properties when they are in distress, (iv) our interests in these properties are foreclosed upon, or (v) we are required to take write-offs (other than those already taken with respect to the Round Rock Property) or impairment charges with respect to these properties.

Changes due to acquisitions and dispositions

 

The three and six months ended June 30, 2019 reflect increases of (i) $1.5 million and $3.5 million, respectively, generated by eight properties acquired in 2018, and (ii) $137,000 generated by four properties acquired in the second quarter of 2019.  Offsetting these increases were decreases of $609,000 and $1.3 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the inclusion, in the 2018 periods, of rental income from properties sold during 2019 and 2018.

 

Changes at same store properties

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, rental income from same store properties decreased due primarily to decreases in fixed lease revenues, offset by increases in variable lease revenues. (See Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements for a discussion of such revenues.) The following table details the components of same store lease revenues for the periods indicated (amounts exclude amortization related to lease intangible assets and liabilities):

Fixed lease revenues decreased in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to the inclusion, in the corresponding periods of 2018, of $545,000 and $742,000, respectively, of rent from the Round Rock Property, offset by increases of $321,000 and $643,000, respectively, due to the expansion of our Hauppauge, New York property.

 

Variable lease revenues increased in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to increases of $268,000 and $777,000, respectively, of tenant reimbursements of operating expenses and real estate taxes, offset by the inclusion, in the corresponding periods of 2018, of higher rent of $220,000 and $440,000, respectively, from The Vue.

Depreciation and amortization.   The increases in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are due primarily to the inclusion of $526,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, of such expense from the eight properties acquired in 2018. The increases in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were offset by (i) the inclusion, in the corresponding periods in 2018, of $195,000 and $376,000, respectively, of tenant origination costs at several properties that, prior to 2019, were fully amortized in connection with lease expirations or, in connection with the Round Rock Property, written off, (ii) the inclusion, in the corresponding periods of 2018, of $136,000 and $278,000, respectively, from the properties sold since January 1, 2018, and (iii) decreases of $94,000 and $205,000, respectively, from a change in the depreciable life with respect to our Greensboro, North Carolina property.

 

General and administrative.   Contributing to the increase in the six months ended June 30, 2019 is $186,000 in non-cash compensation primarily relating to the increase in the number, and higher fair value, of the shares of restricted stock granted in 2019 in comparison to the awards granted in 2014.  Included in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 is a one-time professional fee of $110,000.

 

Real estate expenses. The increases in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are due to increases of (i) $673,000 and $1.0 million, respectively, from several same store properties, including approximately $332,000 and $472,000, respectively, related to legal and real estate tax expense for our Round Rock Property and (ii) $261,000 and $571,000, respectively, from properties acquired since January 2018.  A substantial portion of real estate expenses are rebilled to tenants and included in Rental income, net, on the consolidated statements of income, other than the expenses related to the Round Rock Property.

Credit line interest

 

The increase in the six months ended June 30, 2019 is due to a $4.7 million increase in the weighted average balance outstanding under our line of credit due to acquisitions completed during such period and an increase of 68 basis points (from 3.54% to 4.22%) in the weighted average interest rate due to the increase in the one month LIBOR rate.

The increases in mortgage interest expense are due primarily to the increases in the average principal amount of mortgage debt outstanding. The increases in the average balance outstanding are due primarily to the financing (including financings effectuated in connection with acquisitions) or refinancing in 2019 and 2018 of $85.3 million of gross mortgage debt (including $14.7 million of refinanced amounts).

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our sources of liquidity and capital include cash flow from operations, cash and cash equivalents, borrowings under our credit facility, refinancing existing mortgage loans, obtaining mortgage loans secured by our unencumbered properties, issuances of our equity securities and property sales.  Our available liquidity at August 2, 2019, was $74.2 million, including $4.5 million of cash and cash equivalents (net of the credit facility’s required $3.0 million deposit maintenance balance) and, subject to borrowing base requirements, up to $69.7 million available under our credit facility.

 

Liquidity and Financing

 

We expect to meet our operating cash requirements (including debt service and anticipated dividend payments) principally from cash flow from operations, our available cash and cash equivalents, proceeds from the sale of our common stock and, to the extent permitted, our credit facility.  We estimate that our share of the capital expenditures required in connection with the re-development of the Manahawkin Property will range from $10.0 million to $12.0 million and anticipate that such expenditures will be funded by the joint venture’s cash and capital contributions to the venture by us and our joint venture partner. We may use our credit facility to fund all or a portion of our share of any such capital contributions.

Table of Contents

 

At June 30, 2019, excluding the mortgage debt of our unconsolidated joint venture, we had 72 outstanding mortgages payable secured by 89 properties, in the aggregate principal amount of $438.5 million (before netting unamortized deferred financing costs of $4.4 million).  These mortgages represent first liens on individual real estate investments with an aggregate carrying value of $687.1 million, before accumulated depreciation of $103.8 million.  After giving effect to interest rate swap agreements, the mortgage payments bear interest at fixed rates ranging from 3.02% to 5.88% (a 4.28% weighted average interest rate) and mature between 2019 and 2042 (an 8.2 year weighted average remaining term to maturity).

 

The following table sets forth, as of June 30, 2019, information with respect to our mortgage debt that is payable from July 1, 2019 through December 31, 2022 (excluding our unconsolidated joint ventures):

At June 30, 2019, an unconsolidated joint venture had a first mortgage on its property with an outstanding balance of $23.5 million, bearing an interest rate at 4.0% and maturing in 2025.

 

We intend to make debt amortization payments from operating cash flow and, though no assurance can be given that we will be successful in this regard, generally intend to refinance, extend or payoff the mortgage loans which mature from 2019 through 2022.  We intend to repay the amounts not refinanced or extended from our existing funds and sources of funds, including our available cash, proceeds from the sale of our common stock and our credit facility (to the extent available).

 

We continually seek to refinance existing mortgage loans on terms we deem acceptable to generate additional liquidity.  Additionally, in the normal course of our business, we sell properties when we determine that it is in our best interests, which also generates additional liquidity.  Further, since each of our encumbered properties is subject to a non-recourse mortgage (with standard carve-outs), if our in-house evaluation of the market value of such property is less than the principal balance outstanding on the mortgage loan, we may determine to convey, in certain circumstances, such property to the mortgagee in order to terminate our mortgage obligations, including payment of interest, principal and real estate taxes, with respect to such property.

 

Typically, we utilize funds from our credit facility to acquire a property and, thereafter secure long-term, fixed rate mortgage debt on such property. We apply the proceeds from the mortgage loan to repay borrowings under the credit facility, thus providing us with the ability to re-borrow under the credit facility for the acquisition of additional properties.

Credit Facility

 

Subject to borrowing base requirements, we can borrow up to $100.0 million pursuant to our credit facility which is available to us for the acquisition of commercial real estate, repayment of mortgage debt, renovation and operating expense purposes; provided, that if used for renovation and operating expense purposes, the amount outstanding for such purposes will not exceed the lesser of $30.0 million and 30% of the borrowing base subject to a cap of (i) $20.0 million for renovation expenses and (ii) $10.0 million for operating expense purposes. The facility matures December 31, 2022 and bears interest equal to the one month LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin ranges from 175 basis points if our ratio of total debt to total value (as calculated pursuant to the facility) is equal to or less than 50%, increasing to a maximum of 300 basis points if such ratio is greater than 65%. At June 30, 2019 and 2018, the applicable margin was 200 and 175 basis points, respectively. At June 30, 2019 and 2018, the interest rate was 4.16% and 3.80%, respectively.  There is an unused facility fee of 0.25% per annum on the difference between the outstanding loan balance and $100.0 million. The credit facility requires the maintenance of $3.0 million in average deposit balances.

 

The terms of our credit facility include certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things, the incurrence of liens, and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to, among other things, the minimum amount of tangible net worth, the minimum amount of debt service coverage, the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage, the maximum amount of debt to value, the minimum level of net income, certain investment limitations and the minimum value of unencumbered properties and the number of such properties. Net proceeds received from the sale, financing or refinancing of properties are generally required to be used to repay amounts outstanding under our credit facility. At June 30, 2019, we were in compliance with the covenants under this facility.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements other than with respect to land parcels owned by us and located in Wheaton, Illinois and Beachwood, Ohio. These parcels are improved by multi-family complexes and we ground leased the parcels to owner/operators of such complexes.  These ground leases generated $971,000 of rental income during the six months ended June 30, 2019. At June 30, 2019, our maximum exposure to loss with respect to these properties is $24.4 million, representing the carrying value of the land; such leasehold positions are subordinate to an aggregate of $106.9 million of mortgage debt incurred by our tenants, the owner/operators of the multi-family complexes. These owner/operators are affiliated with one another. We do not believe this type of off-balance sheet arrangement has been or will be material to our liquidity and capital resource positions. See Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding these arrangements.

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

 

We compute funds from operations, or FFO, in accordance with the ‘‘White Paper on Funds From Operations’’ issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (‘‘NAREIT’’) and NAREIT’s related guidance. FFO is defined in the White Paper as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepting accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization (including amortization of deferred leasing costs), plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. In computing FFO, we do not add back to net income the amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities or depreciation of non-real estate assets. We compute adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, by adjusting from FFO for our straight-line rent accruals and amortization of lease intangibles, deducting lease termination fees and gain on extinguishment of debt and adding back amortization of restricted stock and restricted stock unit compensation, amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities (including our share of our unconsolidated joint ventures), amortization of  and debt prepayment costs. Since the NAREIT White Paper does not provide guidelines for computing AFFO, the computation of AFFO may vary from one REIT to another.

 

We believe that FFO and AFFO are useful and standard supplemental measures of the operating performance for equity REITs and are used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating equity REITs, many of which present FFO and AFFO when reporting their operating results. FFO and AFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminish predictability over time. In fact, real estate values have historically risen and fallen with market conditions. As a result, we believe that FFO and AFFO provide a performance measure that when compared year over year, should reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing a perspective that may not be necessarily apparent from net income. We also consider FFO and AFFO to be useful to us in evaluating potential property acquisitions.

 

FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance; nor should FFO and AFFO be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities (as defined by GAAP) as measures of liquidity. FFO and AFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders.

 

Management recognizes that there are limitations in the use of FFO and AFFO. In evaluating our performance, management is careful to examine GAAP measures such as net income and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Our primary market risk exposure is the effect of changes in interest rates on the interest cost of draws on our variable rate credit facility and the effect of changes in the fair value of our interest rate swap agreements.  Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors beyond our control.

 

We use interest rate swaps to limit interest rate risk on variable rate mortgages. These swaps are used for hedging purposes-not for speculation. We do not enter into interest rate swaps for trading purposes.  At June 30, 2019, our aggregate liability in the event of the early termination of our swaps was $2.5 million.

 

At June 30, 2019, we had 26 interest rate swap agreements outstanding. The fair market value of the interest rate swaps is dependent upon existing market interest rates and swap spreads, which change over time. As of June 30, 2019, if there had been an increase of 100 basis points in forward interest rates, the fair market value of the interest rate swaps would have increased by approximately $5.0 million and the net unrealized gain on derivative instruments would have increased by $5.0 million.  If there were a decrease of 100 basis points in forward interest rates, the fair market value of the interest rate swaps would have decreased by approximately $5.4 million and the net unrealized gain on derivative instruments would have decreased by $5.4 million. These changes would not have any impact on our net income or cash.

 

Our mortgage debt, after giving effect to interest rate swap agreements, bears interest at fixed rates and accordingly, the effect of changes in interest rates would not impact the amount of interest expense that we incur under these mortgages.

 

Our variable rate credit facility is sensitive to interest rate changes.  Based on the outstanding balance under this facility of $32.2 million at June 30, 2019, a 100 basis point increase of the interest rate would increase our related interest costs over the next twelve months by approximately $322,000 and a 100 basis point decrease of the interest rate would decrease our related interest costs over the next twelve months by approximately $322,000.

 

The fair market value of our long-term debt is estimated based on discounting future cash flows at interest rates that our management believes reflect the risks associated with long term debt of similar risk and duration.

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are effective.

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended June 30, 2019 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The Treasury Department has indicated that taxpayers may rely on these proposed regulations pending their finalization.

This FIRST AMENDMENT TO THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT AND OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (this “ First Amendment ”) dated as of the 1st day of July, 2019, among (1) ONE LIBERTY PROPERTIES, INC., a Maryland corporation, having its principal place of business at 60 Cutter Mill Road, Suite 303, Great Neck, New York 11021 (“ Borrower ”), (2) VNB NEW YORK, LLC, a New York limited liability company (as successor by merger to VNB New York Corp., as assignee of Valley National Bank, Merchants Bank Division), as a lender, having an office at 1 Penn Plaza, 29 th  Floor, New York, New York 10119 (“ VNB ”), (3) BANK LEUMI USA, as a lender, having an office at 579 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10017 (“ Leumi ”), (4) MANUFACTURERS AND TRADERS TRUST COMPANY, as a lender, having an office at 350 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10022 (“ M&T ”), (5) PEOPLE’S UNITED BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as a lender, having an office at 100 Motor Parkway, Suite 160, Hauppauge, New York 11788 (“ People’s Bank ”), and (6) MANUFACTURERS AND TRADERS TRUST COMPANY, as administrative agent (together with its successors and assigns, “ Administrative Agent ”) on behalf of VNB, Leumi, M&T, People’s Bank and the other Lenders (as defined in the Loan Agreement (as defined below)). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this First Amendment shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement .

 

RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders entered into a certain Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement made as of November 9, 2016 (as amended from time to time, the “ Loan Agreement ”); and

 

WHEREAS, Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders wish to supplement and amend the Loan Agreement by extending the Maturity Date, modifying the interest rate provisions and revising certain of the covenants contained in the Loan Agreement all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed as follows:

 

1.                                       Section 1.01 of the Loan Agreement, entitled “ Certain Defined Terms ”, is hereby amended by adding the following new defined terms:

 

LIBOR Unavailability Condition ” means the condition that exists if (i) Bloomberg Professional Service (or another nationally-recognized rate reporting source acceptable to Administrative Agent) no longer reports LIBOR; (ii) Administrative Agent determines in its sole but commercially reasonable discretion (which shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that LIBOR, as so reported, no longer accurately reflects the rate available to the Lenders in the London interbank market; (iii) LIBOR no longer exists; (iv) Administrative Agent, in its sole but commercially reasonable discretion, shall have determined that U.S. dollar deposits in the

 


 

relevant amount and for the relevant LIBOR Interest Period are not available to the Lenders in the London interbank market; (v) by reason of circumstances affecting any Lender in the London interbank market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjustable LIBOR Rate applicable to the relevant Interest Period; (vi) any change in law or any other applicable law or regulation prohibits, restricts or makes impossible the charging of interest based on the Adjustable LIBOR Rate or shall make it unlawful for the Lenders to make or maintain a LIBOR Rate Loan; (vii) Administrative Agent reasonably determines that by reason of circumstances or instability affecting the London interbank market generally (including, without limitation, uncertainties associated with the anticipated phase-out of LIBOR), the Adjustable LIBOR Rate is no longer a reliable rate indicator; or (viii) the Adjustable LIBOR Rate no longer adequately and fairly reflects the cost of funding loans for loans of this size and type.

 

Super Required Lenders ” shall mean, as of any date, (i) all Lenders if there are less than three (3) Lenders (which shall include the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) or (ii) if there are three (3) or more Lenders (which shall include the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent), then Lenders having a Pro Rata Share of at least 81% of the aggregate principal amount of the Loan; provided that in determining such percentage at any given time, all then existing Defaulting Lenders will be disregarded and excluded, and the Pro Rata Shares shall be re-determined, for voting purposes only, to exclude the Pro Rata Shares of such Defaulting Lenders.

 

2.                                       Section 1.01 of the Loan Agreement, entitled “ Certain Defined Terms ”, is hereby amended by deleting the definitions of the term “Total Secured Value” and “Total Unsecured Value” and replacing them with the following:

 

Total Secured Value ” shall mean the value of Borrower’s, Guarantors’ and their respective Subsidiaries’ Encumbered Properties (other than New Encumbered Properties), calculated by capitalizing the Adjusted Net Operating Income thereof at a rate of 7.625%, plus the value of Borrower’s, Guarantors’ and their respective Subsidiaries’ New Encumbered Properties, calculated at the higher of (i) the capitalization of the Adjusted Net Operating Income thereof at a rate of 7.625% or (ii) the purchase price thereof, provided however that such Encumbered Property must be improved and have a positive cash flow.

 

Total Unsecured Value ” shall mean the value of Borrower’s, Guarantors’ and their respective Subsidiaries’ Unencumbered Properties (other than New Unencumbered Properties), calculated by capitalizing the Adjusted Net Operating Income thereof at a rate of

 

2


 

7.625%, plus the value of Borrower’s, Guarantors’ and their respective Subsidiaries’ New Unencumbered Properties, calculated at the higher of (i) the capitalization of the Adjusted Net Operating Income thereof at a rate of 7.625% or (ii) the purchase price thereof, provided however that such Unencumbered Property must be improved and have a positive cash flow.

 

3.                                       Section 2.03(a) of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted it in its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

“(a)                            Rate Options .  Except as provided below, all Loans shall bear interest at the LIBOR Based Rate.  If at any time Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that a LIBOR Unavailability Condition has occurred, Administrative Agent and Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate index to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate index and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable; provided that, if such alternate rate index as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, such amendment shall become effective so long as Administrative Agent shall have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate index is provided to the Lenders, the consent of the Super Required Lenders (with Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, being automatically deemed to have consented to such amendment).  Until an alternate rate index shall be determined in accordance with this Section 2.03(a) or if for any reason the Adjusted LIBOR Rate is otherwise unavailable, the Floating Rate shall apply and requests for Loans hereunder shall bear interest at the Floating Rate.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the initial ninety (90)-day period following the occurrence of a LIBOR Unavailability Condition (the “ Margin Adjustment Period ”), when calculating the Floating Rate, the Applicable Margin shall be adjusted by a factor equal to the positive or negative difference between the Prime Rate and LIBOR as of the date the LIBOR Unavailability Condition occurred, but in no event shall the Applicable Margin be less than zero (each, a “ Margin Adjustment ”). Upon the expiration of the Margin Adjustment Period, if Borrower and Lenders have not yet determined an alternate rate index in accordance with this Section 2.03(a), the Floating Rate shall thereafter be determined without any Margin Adjustment until an alternate rate index is finally determined.  The rate of interest on Floating Rate Loans shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to any increase or decrease in the Prime Rate effective as of the opening of business on the day that any such change in the Prime Rate occurs.”

 

4.                                       Section 2.06 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the last sentence of said section with the following sentence: “No Lender shall advance and Borrower shall not request Renovation Expense Loans and Operating Expense Loans which in the aggregate exceed the lesser of (x) $30,000,000 or (y) 30% of the Borrowing Base; provided , however , that in no event shall Operating Expense Loans exceed $10,000,000 and Renovation Expense Loans shall not exceed $20,000,000, and Borrower shall immediately prepay such Operating Expense Loans and/or Renovation Expense Loans to the extent of any such excess and there shall be no further advances until such excess is repaid.”

 

3


 

5.                                       Section 2.07 (a) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by extending the Maturity Date from “December 31, 2019” to “December 31, 2022”.

 

6.                                       Section 5.02(m) of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted it in its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

“(m)                        Management .  Fail to retain at least three (3) of Fredric H. Gould, Patrick Callan, Jr., Matthew Gould, David Kalish, Israel Rosenzweig, Mark Lundy and Lawrence G. Ricketts, Jr. in the management of Borrower;”

 

7.                                       Section 1 of the Pledge Agreement, entitled “ Defined Terms ”, is hereby amended by deleting the definition of the term “Pledged Stock” and replacing it with the following:

 

Pledged Stock ” means the shares of capital stock of each Issuer listed on Schedule I hereto, together with any future shares of capital stock that Pledgor pledges to the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.01(m) of the Loan Agreement, together with all stock certificates, options or rights of any nature whatsoever that may be issued or granted by such Issuer to Pledgor while this Agreement is in effect.

 

8.                                       The effectiveness of this First Amendment shall be expressly subject to receipt by Administrative Agent and Lenders of the following items:

(a)                                  Except as set forth on replacement schedules attached hereto as Exhibit B, any and all of the representations, warranties and schedules (as such schedules may have been previously supplemented and/or modified from time to time in accordance with the Loan Agreement) contained in the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof as though made on and as of such date;

 

(b)                                  The execution of this First Amendment, the delivery by Borrower to Administrative Agent of all monies, items and documents provided for herein, Borrower’s performance hereof and the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by the requisite action on the part of Borrower.  This First Amendment constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Borrower and is enforceable against Borrower in accordance with its terms, provisions, covenants and conditions, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by applicable laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally;

WHEREAS:

 

A.                                     Lenders have heretofore made a revolving credit loan (as extended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ Loan ”) to One Liberty Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “ Borrower ”), in the maximum principal amount of up to $100,000,000, which Loan is governed and evidenced by that certain Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of November 9, 2016 made by and among Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders (as amended, restated, extended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, collectively, the “ Loan Agreement ”);

 

B.                                     By Second Amended and Restated Unlimited Guaranty dated as of November 9, 2016 (as amended, restated, extended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, collectively, the “ Guaranty ”), Guarantor has guaranteed the Obligations of Borrower to Lenders under the Loan, as such may exist from time to time.  All terms not separately defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Guaranty;

 

C.                                     The Loan is governed, evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement);

 

D.                                     Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrower are about to enter into that certain First Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement and Other Loan Documents dated as of the date hereof (the “ Modification Agreement ”); and

 

E.                                      In order to induce Administrative Agent to enter into the Modification Agreement, Guarantor has agreed to ratify and confirm the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of the Guaranty.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and for other valuable consideration it is hereby agreed as follows:

 

1.                                       Guarantor hereby consents to Borrower’s execution and delivery of the Modification Agreement and to the terms and provisions thereof.

 

2.                                       Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Guaranty has not been revoked, terminated or amended (except as set forth herein and except with respect to the substitution of additional Guarantors and the release of certain prior Guarantors as contemplated in

3.                                       Guarantor hereby ratifies and confirms the Guaranty with the same force and effect as though herein restated at length, and acknowledges that the Guaranty is a guarantee of payment (as opposed to collection) of the Obligations.

 

4.                                       Guarantor hereby knowingly, voluntarily, intentionally, unconditionally and irrevocably waives, releases and forever discharges Administrative Agent, Lenders and Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ parent, affiliates, subsidiaries and participants (such persons or parties being hereinafter collectively referred to as “ Lender Entities ”) and Lender Entities’ agents, officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members and employees (Administrative Agent, Lenders and Lender Entities and such other persons or parties being herein collectively referred to as “ Lender Parties ”), from and against any and all rights, claims, counterclaims, suits, actions or causes of action against Administrative Agent, Lenders and/or Lender Parties, arising out of Administrative Agent’s, Lenders’ and/or Lender Parties’ actions or inactions in connection with the Loan prior to the execution and delivery of this Ratification, or any security interest, lien or collateral given or granted to Administrative Agent, Lenders and/or any other Lender Party in connection therewith, as well as any and all rights of set-off, defenses, claims, suits, actions, causes of action and any other bar to the enforcement of the Modification Agreement, this Ratification and/or the Loan Documents.

Exhibit 10.2

 

PERFORMANCE AWARDS AGREEMENT —

ONE LIBERTY PROPERTIES, INC. AND

 


 

THIS AGREEMENT is entered into on July 1, 2019, between One Liberty Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Company”), and             , (“Participant”).

 

WHEREAS, the stockholders of the Company have adopted the One Liberty Properties, Inc. 2019 Incentive Plan (“Plan”); and

 

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (“Committee”) has granted, pursuant to Section 8 of the Plan, Performance Awards in the form of restricted stock units (“Units”) to the Participant pursuant to which shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Units are issuable upon the attainment by the Company during the Performance Cycle of the Performance Criteria established by the Committee as set forth in Exhibit A hereto and made part hereof;

 

NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1.               Incorporation of the Plan.   All provisions of this Agreement and the rights of Participant hereunder are subject in all respects to the provisions of the Plan and the powers of the Committee therein provided.  Capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan. The Participant acknowledges receipt of the Plan.

 

2.               Grant Date.   Pursuant to the Plan, the Company, effective as of July 1, 2019 (the “Grant Date”), grants to the Participant a Performance Based Award in the form of          Units, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and those set forth herein.

 

3.               Terms and Conditions .  Except as otherwise provided herein, the Units remain non-vested and subject to substantial risk of forfeiture.  If the Participant’s relationship with the Company terminates for any reason during the Performance Cycle (other than as contemplated by Section 5 of this Agreement), the Units are forfeited by the Participant and will be null and void.

 

4.               Issuance of Shares.   As soon as practicable after the Units become vested and non-forfeitable, the Participant is entitled to receive one share (the “Share” or “Shares”) of Company common stock for each vested Unit.  In the event that a fraction of a Share would be issued, the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. Any delivery of Shares under this Agreement may be made by delivery of a share certificate or by means of a credit of Shares in book entry form.

 

5.               Vesting.   The Units awarded to the Participant, except as otherwise provided herein, become vested and non-forfeitable to the extent, but only to the extent, that the Committee determines that the applicable Performance Criteria set forth in Exhibit A have been satisfied at the end of the Performance Cycle (the “Vesting Date”).    Notwithstanding the forfeiture provision of Section 3 hereof, the interest of the Participant in the Units vest as follows:

 

(a)                                  a pro rata number of Units upon termination of the Participant’s relationship with the Company due to death, Disability or Retirement (collectively a “DDR Event”) during the Performance Cycle, but only with respect to Units that would otherwise have vested at the end of the Performance Cycle.  For the

 


 

purposes of this Section 5(a), the pro rata number of Units that vest equals the product obtained by multiplying the total number of Units awarded pursuant to this Agreement by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days commencing July 1, 2019 and ending on the date of the DDR Event, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Cycle.

 

(b)                                  All of the Units vest upon a Change of Control if the effective date thereof is after January 1, 2021.  If the effective date of the Change of Control occurs prior to or on January 1, 2021, a pro rata number of Units vest upon such Change of Control.    For the purposes of this Section 5(b), the pro rata number of Units that vest equals the product obtained by multiplying the total number of Units awarded pursuant to this Agreement by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days commencing on July 1, 2019 and ending on the effective date of the Change of Control, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the period commencing July 1, 2019 and ending January 1, 2021.

 

(c)                                   If a Participant’s relationship with the Company terminates due to a DDR Event and subsequent thereto (but prior to June 30, 2022) there is a Change of Control, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the number of Units which vest and the number of Shares issuable to the Participant, the Participant’s guardian, personal representative or estate, as the case may be, equals the product obtained by multiplying the total number of Units subject to this Agreement by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days commencing July 1, 2019 and ending on the date of the DDR Event, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the period commencing on July 1, 2019 and ending on the effective date of the Change of Control.

 

6.               Restrictions.   The Units awarded pursuant to this Agreement may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred and may not be subject to lien, garnishment, attachment or other legal process.

 

7.               Rights as a Stockholder.   The Recipient does not have any rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares underlying the Units unless and until the Units vest.

 

8.               Disability of Participant.   In the event of the Disability of the Participant, the Shares underlying Units which have vested pursuant to this Agreement will be issued to the Participant if Participant is legally competent or, if the Participant is not legally competent, to a legally designated guardian or representative.

 

9.               Death of Participant.   In the event of the Participant’s death, the Shares underlying the Units which have vested and are issuable pursuant to this Agreement will be issued to the Participant’s estate, personal representative, or designated beneficiary.

 

10.        Taxes.   Participant is liable for any and all taxes, including withholding taxes, arising out of this grant, the vesting of Units and the issuance of Shares hereunder.

 

11.        Claw-back.   Participant acknowledges and agrees that the grant of the Units and the issuance of Shares is subject to the applicable provisions of any claw-back or similar policy implemented by the Company, whether implemented prior to or after the grant of this Award.

 


 

12.        Miscellaneous

 

(a)                                  Neither this Agreement nor the granting or vesting of Units confers upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or an affiliate, nor does it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or an affiliate to terminate Participant’s relationship with the Company at any time.

 

(b)                                  The parties agree to execute such further documents and instruments and to take such action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement, including without limitation the imposition of appropriate legends on the Shares and the issuance of “stop transfer” orders to implement the restrictions imposed herein.

 

(c)                                   This Award is governed by the laws of the State of Maryland (without regard to its choice of law principles) and applicable Federal law.

 

(d)                                  For the purpose of this Agreement, a Participant’s relationship with the Company is deemed to terminate when the Participant is no longer serving the Company or its Subsidiaries as an officer, director, employee or consultant.

 

(e)                                   Except as may otherwise be permitted under the Plan, the Committee has the right to amend this Agreement, prospectively or retroactively; provided that no such amendment or alteration shall adversely affect Participant’s material rights under this Agreement without Participant’s consent and pursuant to a writing executed by the parties hereto which specifically states that it is amending this Agreement.

 

(f)                                    This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire contract between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof.  They supersede any other agreements, representations or understandings (whether oral or written and whether express or implied) that relate to the subject matter hereof.

 

(g)                                   Except as expressly stated herein to the contrary, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

 

(h)                                  The Units granted to the Participant will be credited to a separate account maintained on the books of the Company (the “Account”). All amounts credited to Participant’s Account under this Agreement will continue for all purposes to be a part of the general assets of the Company. Participant’s interest in the Account makes Participant only a general, unsecured creditor of the Company.

 


 

This Agreement has been executed and delivered by the parties as of the date hereof.

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

 

The number of Restricted Stock Units (“Units”) that shall vest, if any, will be determined by the Compensation Committee as soon as practicable after the completion of a three year Performance Cycle (which commences July 1, 2019 and ends on June 30, 2022), using the following Performance Criteria:

 

Return on Capital :  One-half of the awarded Units, or an aggregate of              Units, are subject to an average annual return on capital metric for the period from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2022.  For all of the Units subject to the return on capital metric to vest and for the underlying shares of the Company’s common stock be issued to the Participant, the average of the annual return on capital during the Performance Cycle must be at least 9.75%.  For a portion of these Units to vest and for underlying shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued with respect to the Units which vest, the average of the annual return on capital for the Performance Cycle must exceed 7%.  If the average of the annual return on capital exceeds 7%, but is less than 9.75% for the Performance Cycle, then a pro rata number of Units shall vest and the underlying shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to the Units which vest will be issued.  Return on capital means adjusted funds from operations, as determined below, divided by average capital, as determined below.  Adjusted funds from operations means funds from operations, determined in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts definition, adjusted for straight-line rent accruals and amortization of lease intangibles, and adding and deducting gains and losses, respectively, on sales of properties. Gains and/or losses on property sales shall equal the sales price for a property less the purchase price, costs of capital improvements and costs of sale.  Such return shall be calculated for each twelve month period beginning July 1, 2019.  Average capital is defined as stockholders’ equity, plus depreciation and amortization, adjusted for intangibles, and for each twelve month period during the Performance Cycle, shall be measured by reference to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the sum of the capital as of July 1 and the following June 30 by (b) two.  As in the case of the total stockholder return metric, the average annual return on capital shall be determined for each twelve month period beginning July 1, 2019, 2020 and 2021, and whether and to the extent an award vests, will be based on the average of such averages.

 

Total Stockholder Return :  One-half of the awarded Units, or an aggregate of              Units, are subject to a total stockholder return metric average for the period from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2022.  Each year (July 1 st  through the following June 30 th ) total stockholder return for such year shall be calculated using the following formula:  the closing price per share on the NYSE of the Company’s common stock at the end of the measuring period (the applicable June 30 th ) minus the closing price per share on the NYSE of the Company’s common stock at the start of the measuring period (the applicable July 1 st ) plus all dividends paid during the measuring period shall be divided by the closing price per share on the NYSE of the Company’s common stock at the commencement of the measuring period (the applicable July 1 st ).  Once total stockholder return has been calculated for each of the three years in the Performance Cycle, an average of such three year total stockholder return shall be determined.  In order for all of these Units to vest and the underlying shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued, the average total stockholder return for the three year period must be 12.75% or higher, and for a portion of the Units to vest and the underlying shares of the Company’s common stock be issued, the average total stockholder return for the three year period must exceed 7%.  If the average annual total stockholder return exceeds 7%, but is less than 12.75% for the three year period, then a pro rata number of Units shall vest and the underlying shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to the Units which vest shall be issued.
