Description of Business, Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Description of Business
Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the “Company,” “Marcus & Millichap,” or “MMI”), a Delaware corporation, is a brokerage firm specializing in commercial real estate investment sales, financing,
research
and advisory services. As of June 30, 2022, MMI operates 82 offices in the United States and Canada through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including the operations of Marcus & Millichap Capital Corporation.
Reorganization and Initial Public Offering
MMI was formed in June 2013 in preparation for Marcus & Millichap Company (“MMC”) to
spin-off
its majority-owned subsidiary, Marcus & Millichap Real Estate Investment Services, Inc. (“MMREIS”). Prior to the initial public offering (“IPO”) of MMI, all of the preferred and common stockholders of MMREIS (including MMC and employees of MMREIS) contributed all of their outstanding shares to MMI, in exchange for new MMI common stock. As a result, MMREIS became a wholly-owned subsidiary of MMI. Thereafter, MMC distributed 80.0% of the shares of MMI common stock to MMC’s shareholders and exchanged the remaining portion of its shares of MMI common stock for cancellation of indebtedness of MMC. MMI completed its IPO in November 2013.
Basis of Presentation
The financial information presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, has been prepared in accordance with rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form
10-Q
and
Article 10-01
of
Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, including the Company’s accounting policies for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K
filed on March 1, 2022 with the SEC. The results of the three months and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022, for other interim periods or for future years.
The Company reclassified certain items within accounts payable and accrued expenses to other liabilities, current in the December 31, 2021 condensed consolidated balance sheet to conform with current period presentation.
Considerations Related to the
COVID-19
Pandemic
The Company may continue to experience operational and financial impacts due to the ongoing
COVID-19
pandemic and actual results may differ from the Company’s current estimates and historical trends because of that uncertainty.
Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the related disclosures at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash and cash equivalents, investments in marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale,
security deposits and commissions receivable, net. Cash and cash equivalents are placed with high-credit quality financial institutions and invested in high-credit quality money market funds and commercial paper. Concentrations and ratings of marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale
are limited by the approved investment policy.
To reduce its credit risk, the Company monitors the credit standing of the financial institutions money market funds that represent amounts recorded as cash and cash equivalents. The Company historically has not experienced any significant losses related to cash and cash equivalents.

MARCUS & MILLICHAP, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
In September 2021, the Company entered into a Strategic Alliance (“Strategic Alliance”) with M&T Realty Capital Corporation (“MTRCC”) pursuant to which the Company has agreed to provide loan opportunities that may be funded through MTRCC’s Delegated Underwriting and Servicing Agreement (“DUS Agreement”) with the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and which requires MTRCC to guarantee a portion of each loan funded. On a
loan-by-loan
basis, the Company, at its option, can indemnify a portion of MTRCC’s guarantee obligation of loan opportunities presented to and closed by MTRCC though the DUS Agreement. The Company manages and limits the concentration of risk related to the guarantees assumed by monitoring the underlying property type, geographic location, credit of the borrowers, underlying debt service coverage, and loan to value ratios.
The Company derives its revenues from a broad range of real estate investors, owners, and users in the United States and Canada, none of which individually represents a significant concentration of credit risk. The Company maintains allowances, as needed, for estimated credit losses based on management’s assessment of the likelihood of collection. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, no transaction represented 10% or more of total revenues. Further, while one or more transactions may represent 10% or more of commissions receivable at any reporting date, amounts due are typically collected within 10 days of settlement and, therefore, do not expose the Company to significant credit risk.
During
both
the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s Canadian operations represented 2.2% of total revenues. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company’s Canadian operations represented approximately 2.4% and 2.2% of total revenues, respectively.
During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, no office represented 10% or more of total revenues.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates real estate brokerage commissions by acting as a broker for real estate owners or investors seeking to buy or sell interests in commercial properties and generates financing fees from securing financing on purchase transactions, from refinancing its clients’ existing mortgage debt and other ancillary fees associated with financing activities, including, but not limited to, mortgage servicing, debt and equity advisory services, loan sales, due diligence services, guarantee fees, loan performance fees and other consulting. The Company’s contracts, except as noted below, do not contain multiple-element arrangements, variable consideration, financing components, significant noncash consideration, licenses, long-term contracts with customers or other items affecting the transaction price.
Real Estate Brokerage Commissions
Contracts for representing buyers and sellers of real estate are usually negotiated on a
transaction-by-transaction
basis. The consideration associated with the successful outcome remains constrained until the completion of a transaction which, in almost all cases, is at the close of escrow. At that time, the Company recognizes revenue related to the transaction. The Company’s fee agreements do not include terms or conditions that require the Company to perform any service or fulfill any obligation once the transaction closes.
Financing Fees
Contracts for representing potential borrowers are usually negotiated on a
transaction-by-transaction
basis. The consideration associated with the successful outcome remains constrained until the completion of a transaction which, in almost all cases, is at the time the loan closes. At that time, the Company recognizes revenue related to the transaction. The Company’s fee arrangements, with certain exceptions, do not include terms or conditions that require the Company to perform any service or fulfill any obligation once the loan closes.
Loan Performance Fees
- For loans originated through the Strategic Alliance with MTRCC, the Company receives variable consideration in the form of loan performance fees based on a portion of the servicing fees expected to be received under the servicing contract for servicing the loan. As the Company is not obligated to perform any servicing functions and has no further obligations related to the transaction giving rise to the loan performance fees, the estimated value of the loan performance fees to be received is recorded at the time the loan closes and are collected over the estimated term of the related loan. Any changes in the estimate of loan performance fees to be received are recorded in revenue in the period the estimate changes.
Guarantee Obligations
- For certain loans originated through the Strategic Alliance with MTRCC, the Company may agree, at its option, to indemnify MTRCC for a portion of MTRCC’s obligations for loans sold to Fannie Mae. For these loans, the Company allocates a portion of the transaction price and records a loan guarantee obligation based on its fair value. Revenue for this stand ready obligation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the estimated guarantee period and is recorded in financing fees in the condensed consolidated statements of net and comprehensive income. The guarantee obligation is capped at 16.7% of the unpaid principal balance in excess of the collateral securing such loan. For these loans, the Company also records an allowance for loss-sharing obligations based on the unpaid balance of the loan for its portion of the obligation guaranteed to MTRCC.

Mortgage Servicing
- The Company recognizes mortgage servicing revenues upon the acquisition of a servicing contract. The Company records servicing fees when earned provided the loans are current and the debt service payments are made by the borrowers.
Other Revenues
Other revenues include fees generated from consulting and advisory services, as well as referral fees from other real estate brokers, and are recognized when services are provided, or upon closing of the transaction.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Pending Adoption
In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
No. 2020-04,
Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting
(“ASU
2020-04”).
ASU
2020-04
provides temporary optional exceptions to the guidance in U.S. GAAP on contract modifications to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). ASU
2020-04
is effective for all entities upon issuance and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications through December 31, 2022. The guidance applies to the Company’s Credit Agreement (see Note 12 – “Commitments and Contingencies”), which references LIBOR, and will generally allow it to account for and present a modification as an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has not drawn funds from the credit facility. The Company evaluated this new standard and determined that ASU
2020-04
will have no impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2022, the portfolio had an average credit rating of AA+ and a weighted term to contractual maturity of 1.3 years, with 216 securities in the portfolio representing an unrealized aggregate loss of $4.6 million or 1% of amortized cost, and a weighted average credit rating of AA+.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company performed an impairment analysis and determined an allowance for credit losses was not required. The Company determined that it did not have an intent to sell and it was not more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell any security based on its current liquidity position, or to maintain compliance with its investment policy, specifically as it relates to minimum credit ratings. The Company evaluated the securities with an unrealized loss considering severity of loss, credit ratings, specific credit events during the period since acquisition, overall likelihood of default, market sector, potential impact from the current economic environment, including interest rates, geopolitical unrest and a review of an issuer’s and securities’ liquidity and financial strength, as needed. The Company concluded that it would receive all scheduled interest and principal payments. The Company, therefore, determined qualitatively that the unrealized loss was related to changes in interest rates and other market factors and therefore no allowance for credit losses was required.

Acquisitions, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company expanded its network of financing professionals and provided further diversification to its financing services.
The Company completed an acquisition of a business that was accounted for as a business combination, and the results have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date. Terms of the acquisition principally included cash paid at closing.    
The goodwill recorded as part of the Company’s acquisitions primarily arose from the acquired assembled workforce and brokerage and financing sales platforms. The Company expects all of the goodwill to be tax deductible, with the
tax-deductible
amount of goodwill related to the contingent and deferred consideration to be determined once the cash payments are made to settle any contingent and deferred consideration. The goodwill resulting from acquisitions is allocated to the Company’s one reporting unit.

The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment annually in the fourth quarter. In addition to the annual impairment evaluation, the Company evaluates at least quarterly whether events or circumstances have occurred in the period subsequent to the annual impairment testing, which indicate that it is more likely than not an impairment loss has occurred. The Company evaluates its intangible assets that have finite useful lives whenever an event or change in circumstances indicates that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company considered the impact of the continuing
COVID-19
pandemic and geopolitical unrest and evaluated its goodwill and intangible assets for impairment testing. The Company estimated the recoverability of the intangible assets by comparing the carrying amount of each asset to the future undiscounted cash flows that the Company expects the asset to generate. The sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows was greater than the carrying amount of the intangible assets. The Company concluded that as of June 30, 2022, there was no impairment of its intangible assets or goodwill.

The SARs and deferred compensation liabilities become subject to payout at the time the participant is no longer considered a service provider. As a result of the retirement of certain participants, estimated amounts to be paid to participants within the next twelve months have been classified as current.
SARs Liability
Prior to the IPO, certain employees of the Company were granted SARs under a stock-based compensation program assumed by MMC. In connection with the IPO, the SARs agreements were revised, the MMC liability of $20.0 million for the SARs was frozen as of March 31, 2013 and was transferred to MMI through a capital distribution. The SARs liability will be settled with each participant in ten annual installments in January of each year upon retirement or termination from service, or in full upon consummation of a change in control of the Company.
Under the revised agreements, MMI is required to accrue interest on the outstanding balance beginning on January 1, 2014
,
at a rate based on the
10-year
treasury note, plus 2%. The rate resets annually. The rates at January 1, 2022 and 2021 were 3.63% and 2.93%, respectively. MMI recorded interest expense related to this liability of $136,000 and $122,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively
,
and $271,000 and $244,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Estimated payouts within the next twelve months for participants that have separated from service have been classified as current. During each of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company made total payments of $2.2 million, consisting of principal and accumulated interest.
Commissions Payable
Certain investment sales and financing professionals can earn additional commissions
 
after meeting certain annual revenue thresholds. These commissions are recognized as cost of services in the period in which they are earned as they relate to specific transactions closed. The Company may defer payment of certain commissions, at its election, for up to
three years
.
Commissions that are not expected to be paid within twelve months are classified as long-term.
Deferred Compensation Liability
A select group of management is eligible to participate in the Marcus & Millichap Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”). The Deferred Compensation Plan is a
non-qualified
deferred compensation plan that is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and permits participants to defer compensation up to the limits set forth in the Deferred Compensation Plan. Amounts are paid out generally when the participant is no longer a service provider; however, an
in-service
payout election is available to participants. Participants may elect to receive payouts as a lump sum or quarterly over a two to fifteen-year period. The Company elected to fund the Deferred Compensation Plan through company owned variable life insurance policies. The Deferred Compensation Plan is managed by a third-party institutional fund manager, and the deferred compensation and investment earnings are held as a Company asset in a rabbi trust, which is recorded in assets held in rabbi trust in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The assets in the trust are restricted unless the Company becomes insolvent, in which case the trust assets are subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors. The Company may also, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to withdraw at any time a portion of the trust assets by an amount by which the fair market value of the trust assets exceeds 110%
of the aggregate deferred compensation liability represented by the participants’ accounts. Estimated payouts within the next twelve months for participants that have separated from service or elected an
in-service
payout have been classified as current. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company made total payments to participants o
f $625,000 and $815,000, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements
U.S. GAAP defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company is responsible for the determination of fair value and the supporting methodologies and assumptions. The Company uses various pricing sources and third parties to provide and validate the values utilized.
The degree of judgment used in measuring the fair value of financial instruments is generally inversely correlated with the level of observable valuation inputs. Financial instruments with quoted prices in active markets generally have more pricing observability and less judgment is used in measuring fair value. Financial instruments for which no quoted prices are available have less observability and are measured at fair value using valuation models or other pricing techniques that require more judgment.
Assets recorded at fair value are measured and classified in accordance with a fair value hierarchy consisting of the three “levels” based on the observability of inputs available in the marketplace used to measure the fair values as discussed below:
 
 
 
Level 1
: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
 
 
 
Level 2
: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; or
 
 
 
Level 3
: Unobservable inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model. Management estimates include certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company values its investments including commercial paper and floating net asset value money market funds recorded in cash and cash equivalents, investments in marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale,
assets held in the rabbi trust, deferred compensation liability and contingent and deferred consideration at fair value on a recurring basis.
Fair values for investments included in cash and cash equivalents and marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale
were determined for each individual security in the investment portfolio and all these securities are Level 1 or 2 measurements as appropriate.
Fair values for assets held in the rabbi trust and related deferred compensation liability were determined based on the cash surrender value of the company owned variable life insurance policies and underlying investments in the trust, and are Level 2 and Level 1 measurements, respectively.
Contingent consideration in connection with acquisitions, is carried at fair value and determined on a
contract-by-contract
basis, calculated using unobservable inputs based on a probability of achieving EBITDA and other performance requirements, and is a Level 3 measurement. Deferred consideration in connection with acquisitions is carried at fair value and calculated using a discounted cash flow estimate with the only remaining condition on such payments being the passage of time, and is a Level 2 measurement.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company considered current and future interest rates and the probability of achieving EBITDA and other performance targets in its determination of fair value for the contingent consideration. The Company is uncertain as to the extent of the volatility in the unobservable inputs in the foreseeable future. Deferred consideration in connection with acquisitions is carried at fair value and calculated using a discounted cash flow estimate with the only remaining condition on such payments being the passage of time.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, contingent and deferred consideration had a maximum undiscounted payment to be settled in cash or stock of $23.8 million and $28.6 million, respectively. Assuming the achievement of the applicable performance criteria and/or service and time requirements, the Company anticipates these payments will be made over the next one to five-year period. Changes in fair value are included in selling, general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of net and comprehensive income.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, from time to time, the Company measures certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The Company reviews the carrying value of MSRs, intangibles, goodwill and other assets for indications of impairment at least annually. When indications of potential impairment are identified, the Company may be required to determine the fair value of those assets and record an adjustment for the carrying amount in excess of the fair value determined. Any fair value determination would be based on valuation approaches, which are appropriate under the circumstances and utilize Level 2 and Level 3 measurements as required.
MSRs are recorded at fair value upon acquisition of a servicing contract. The Company has elected the amortization method for the subsequent measurement of MSRs. MSRs are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. MSRs are a Level 3 measurement. The Company’s MSRs do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. The estimated fair value of the Company’s MSRs were developed using a discounted cash flow model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model considers contractual provisions and assumptions of market participants including specified servicing fees, prepayment assumptions, delinquency rates, late charges, other ancillary revenue, costs to service and other economic factors. The Company periodically reassesses and adjusts, when necessary, the underlying inputs and assumptions used to reflect observable market conditions and assumptions that a market participant would consider in valuing an MSR asset. Management uses assumptions in the determination of fair value for MSRs after considering default, severity, prepayment and discount rates related to the specific types and underlying collateral of the various serviced loans, interest rates, refinance rates, and current government and private sector responses on the economic impact of the
COVID-19
pandemic. In June 2022, the Company determined to discontinue its servicing activities and signed an agreement to sell the remaining servicing rights. The sale closed on July 21, 2022. See Note 5 – “Selected Balance Sheet Data” for additional information.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans
2013 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan
The Company’s board of directors adopted the 2013 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”), which became effective upon the Company’s IPO. In February 2017, the
B
oard of
D
irectors amended and restated the 2013 Plan, which was approved by the Company’s stockholders in May 2017. Grants are made from time to time by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors at its discretion, subject to certain restrictions as to the number and value of shares that may be granted to any individual. In addition,
non-employee
directors receive annual grants under a director compensation policy. The compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors has the option to grant dividend equivalents to unvested grants. Any dividend equivalents granted to unvested awards are paid to the participant at the time the related grants vest. As of June 30, 2022, there were 3,990,582 shares available for future grants under the 2013 Plan.
On February 16, 2022, the Board of Directors declared a semi-annual regular dividend of $0.25 per share and a special dividend of $1.00 per share payable on April 4, 2022, to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 8, 2022. The Compensation Committee granted dividend equivalents to all unvested grants as of the record date.
The Company accrued dividend equivalents on unvested grants outstanding as of th
e record date
of
$2.5 million.
Awards Granted and Settled
Under the 2013 Plan, the Company has issued RSAs to
non-employee
directors and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to employees and independent contractors. RSAs vest over a
one-year
period from the date of grant, subject to service requirements. RSUs generally vest in equal annual installments over a five-year period from the date of grant or earlier as approved by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors. Dividend equivalents granted for unvested stock awards are paid at the time the stock awards vest. Any unvested awards and dividend equivalents are canceled upon termination as a service provider. As of June 30, 2022, there were no issued or outstanding options, SARs, performance units or performance share awards under the 2013 Plan.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In 2013, the Company adopted the 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”). The ESPP is intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code and provides for consecutive,
non-overlapping
6-month
offering periods. The offering periods generally start on the first trading day on or after May 15 and November 15 of each year. Qualifying employees may purchase shares of the Company stock at a 10% discount based on the lower of the market price at the beginning or end of the offering period, subject to IRS limitations. The Company determined that the ESPP was a compensatory plan and is required to expense the fair value of the awards over each
6-month
offering period.
The ESPP initially had 366,667 shares of common stock reserved, and 145,636 shares of common stock remain available for issuance as of June 30, 2022. The ESPP provides for annual increases in the number of shares available for issuance under the ESPP, equal to the least of (i) 366,667 shares, (ii) 1% of the outstanding shares on such date, or (iii) an amount determined by the compensation committee of the
B
oard of
D
irectors. Pursuant to the provisions of the ESPP, the
B
oard of
D
irectors has determined to not provide for any annual increases to date. At June 30, 2022, total unrecognized compensation cost related to the ESPP was $98,000 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.38 years.

SARs and DSUs
Prior to the IPO, certain employees were granted SARs. As of
March 31, 2013
, the outstanding SARs were frozen at the liability amount, and will be paid out to each participant in installments upon retirement or departure under the terms of the revised SARs agreements. To replace beneficial ownership in the SARs, the difference between the book value liability and the fair value of the awards was granted to plan participants in the form of deferred stock units (“DSUs”), which were fully vested upon receipt and will be settled in actual stock at a rate of
20
% per year if the participant remains employed by the Company during that period (otherwise all unsettled shares of stock upon termination from service will be settled
five years
from the termination date, unless otherwise agreed to by the Company). In the event of death or termination of service after reaching the age of
67
,
100
% of the DSUs will be settled. During the six months ended June 30, 2022,
166,449
DSUs were settled, and
78,615
shares of common stock were withheld to pay applicable required employee statutory withholding taxes based on the market value of the DSUs on the settlement date. As of June 30, 2022,
114,744
shares of fully vested DSUs remained to be settled in 2022.

Commitments and Contingencies
Credit Agreement
On June 18, 2014, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Credit Agreement”). On May 31, 2022 the Company executed an amended and restated Credit Agreement (the “First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) to extend the maturity date of the Credit Agreement on substantially the same terms and conditions as the original credit facility. The First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for
a $60.0 
million principal amount senior secured revolving credit facility that is guaranteed by all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries (the “Credit Facility”), which was scheduled to mature on August 1, 2022. Prior to the maturity date, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement principally on the same terms, to further extend the maturity date to June 1, 2025. Refer to Note 13 – “
Subsequent Events”
for additional information.
The Company may borrow, repay and reborrow amounts under the Credit Facility until its maturity date, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility must be repaid in full. 
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are available for general corporate purposes and working capital. The Credit Facility includes a $10.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit of which $533,000 was utilized at June 30, 2022. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will bear interest at the Daily Simple SOFR rate plus a spread of between 1.00% to 1.25% depending on the Company’s total funded debt to EBITDA as defined in the Credit Agreement. In connection with the amendments of the Credit Agreement, the Company paid bank fees and other expenses,

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
which
 
are being amortized over the remaining term of the Credit Agreement. The Company pays a commitment fee of up t
o 0.1%
per annum, payable quarterly, based on the amount of unutilized commitments under the Credit Facility. The amortization and commitment fee is included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of net and comprehensive income and wa
s $22,000 and $20,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $47,000 and $44,000,
respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. As of June 30, 2022, there were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
The Credit Facility contains customary covenants, including financial and other covenant reporting requirements and events of default. Financial covenants require the Company, on a combined basis with its guarantors, to maintain (i) an EBITDAR Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.25:1.0 as of each quarter end, determined on a rolling four-quarter basis, and (ii) total funded debt to EBITDA not greater than 2.0:1.0 as of each quarter end, determined on a rolling four-quarter basis, and also limits investments in foreign entities and certain other loans. The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all assets of the Company, including pledges of 100% of the stock or other equity interest of each subsidiary except for the capital stock of a controlled foreign corporation (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), in which case no such pledge is required. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all financial and
non-financial
covenants and has not experienced any limitation in its operations as a result of the covenants.
Strategic Alliance
The Company, in connection with the Strategic Alliance with MTRCC, has agreed to provide loan opportunities that may be funded through MTRCC’s agreement with Fannie Mae and which requires MTRCC to guarantee a portion of each funded loan. On
a loan-by-loan basis,
the Company, at its option, can indemnify a portion of MTRCC’s guarantee obligation of loan opportunities presented to and closed by MTRCC. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has agreed to a maximum aggregate guarantee obligation of $25.4 million relating to loans with an unpaid balance of $152.6 million. The maximum guarantee obligation is not representative of the actual loss the Company would incur. The Company would be liable for this amount only if all of the loans for which it is providing a guarantee to MTRCC were to default and all of the collateral underlying these loans was determined to be without value at the time of settlement.
Other
In connection with certain agreements with investment sales and financing professionals, the Company may agree to advance amounts to such professionals upon reaching certain time and performance goals. Such commitments as of June 30, 2022 aggregated to $20.9 million.
 
13.
Subsequent Events
On August 2, 2022, the Board of Directors declared a semi-annual regular dividend o
f $0.25
per share, or approximately $10.4 million, payable on October 6, 2022 to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 15, 2022. Any and all future dividends are subject to review and approval by the Board of Directors.
In addition, the Board of Directors authorized and approved a stock repurchase program (“Repurchase Program”) authorizing up to
 $70 
million in stock repurchases. The stock repurchase program has not yet commenced, does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares, and our Board of Directors may modify, suspend, or discontinue authorization of the Repurchase Program at any time.
On July 28, 2022, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which provides for a three-year extension of its Credit Facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association on principally the same terms and conditions as the extension signed in May 2022. The new agreement matures on June 1, 2025.

Overview
We are a leading national brokerage firm specializing in commercial real estate investment sales, financing, research and advisory services. We have been the top commercial real estate investment broker in the United States based on the number of investment transactions for more than 15 years. As of June 30, 2022, we had 1,901 investment sales and financing professionals that are primarily exclusive independent contractors operating in 82 offices, who provide real estate brokerage and financing services to sellers and buyers of commercial real estate assets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we closed 3,636 and 6,540 investment sales, financing and other transactions with total sales volume of approximately $26.4 billion and $47.4 billion, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we closed 13,255 investment sales, financing and other transactions with total sales volume of approximately $84.4 billion.
We generate revenues by collecting real estate brokerage commissions upon the sale, and fees upon the financing, of commercial properties, and by providing equity advisory services, loan sales, loan guarantees and consulting and advisory services. Real estate brokerage commissions are typically based upon the value of the property and financing fees are typically based upon the size of the loan. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, and the year ended December 31, 2021, approximately 90% of our revenues were generated from real estate brokerage commissions, 9% from financing fees and 1% from other real estate related services.
We divide commercial real estate into four major market segments, characterized by price:
 
   
Properties priced less than $1 million;
 
   
Private client market: properties priced from $1 million to up to but less than $10 million;
 
   
Middle market: properties priced from $10 million to up to but less than $20 million; and
 
   
Larger transaction market: properties priced from $20 million and above.
We are the industry leader in serving private clients in the
$1-$10 million
private client market segment, which contributed approximately 59% and 63% of our real estate brokerage commissions during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and approximately 58% and 63% of our real estate brokerage commissions during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The following table sets forth the number of transactions, sales volume and revenues by commercial real estate market segment for real estate brokerage:

Factors Affecting Our Business
Our business and our operating results, financial condition and liquidity are significantly affected by the number and size of commercial real estate investment sales and financing transactions that we close in any period. The number and size of these transactions are affected by our ability to recruit and retain investment sales and financing professionals, identify and contract properties for sale, and identify those that need financing and refinancing. We principally monitor the commercial real estate market through four factors, which generally drive our business. The factors are the economy, commercial real estate supply and demand, capital markets, and investor sentiment and investment activity.
The Economy
Our business is dependent on economic conditions within the markets in which we operate. Changes in the economy on a global, national, regional or local basis can have a positive or negative impact on our business. Economic indicators and projections related to job growth, unemployment, interest rates, retail spending and confidence trends can have a positive or negative impact on our business. Overall market conditions, including global trade, interest rate changes, inflation, and job creation, can affect investor sentiment and, ultimately, the demand for our services from investors in real estate.
Following last year’s 5.7% increase in GDP, the U.S. economy has displayed a variety of mixed signals in the first half of 2022. Underlying inflation drivers including supply chain disruptions, oil and gas price surges and rapidly shifting inventory levels have aligned with financial market turbulence and weakening consumer confidence to weigh on investor sentiment. At the same time, positive economic indicators including the addition of more than 2.7 million jobs in the first six months of the year,
near-record-low
unemployment and underemployment rates and a 5.5% gain in core retail sales through just the first half of the year all suggest the economy remains sound. These mixed messages will likely empower the Federal Reserve to continue the inflation-battling monetary policies they initiated in late 2021. The Federal Reserve has signaled an acceleration of their quantitative tightening program is forthcoming as they double the pace of their balance sheet drawdown. They have also signaled steady increases of the Federal Funds rate through the remainder of 2022, which many believe will lift the overnight rate by a total of 300 to 400 basis points in 2022. The Federal Reserve’s actions are placing upward pressure on the cost of debt financing, adding to the complexity of investor underwriting and acquisition strategies. The unique blend of economic crosscurrents in 2022 has created additional choppiness in the commercial real estate market, causing each property type and geographic region to operate in a unique micro-climate significantly influenced by both national and local economic forces.
Commercial Real Estate Supply and Demand
Our business is dependent on the willingness of investors to invest in or sell commercial real estate, which is affected by many factors beyond our control. These factors include the supply of commercial real estate, coupled with user demand for these properties, and the performance of real estate assets, when compared with other investment alternatives, such as stocks and bonds.
The economic choppiness translated to mixed results for commercial real estate space demand. Occupied multifamily housing units tapered, giving back some of the first quarter gains that had driven the national vacancy rate to a record low. Office space demand remained positive for a fifth consecutive quarter, but absorption fell short of construction completions resulting in a modest vacancy gain. Retail space demand sustained momentum, delivering a seventh consecutive quarter of positive absorption and a quarterly vacancy rate decline. Industrial vacancy rates also declined, pushing deeper into record territory with a 3.6% vacancy rate. The hotel sector also achieved growth, with occupancy rates surpassing 70% in June, nearly back to 2019 levels, supporting record-high average daily rates. These performance metrics reiterate the highly localized, property-specific trends in the commercial real estate sector that are challenging real estate investors to closely assess each market and each asset. Financial market turbulence, economic crosscurrents and rising interest rates have the potential to create additional hurdles for investors in the second half of 2022.

Capital Markets
Credit and liquidity issues in the financial markets have a direct impact on the flow of capital to the commercial real estate market. Real estate purchases are often financed with debt, and as a result, credit and liquidity impact transaction activity and prices. Changes in interest rates, as well as steady and protracted movements of interest rates in one direction, whether increasing or decreasing, could adversely or positively affect the operations and income potential of commercial real estate properties, as well as lender and equity underwriting for real estate investments. These changes generally influence investor demand for commercial real estate investments.
In their effort to battle inflation, the Federal Reserve has aggressively increased the overnight rate, placing upward pressure on the broader interest rate climate. However, it appears some of these efforts have been offset by financial market volatility as an increasing amount of capital has moved toward safer investments including long-term bonds. As a result, short-term interest rates have risen faster than long-term rates, keeping debt financing comparatively stable. Long-term rates may begin to rise in September when the Federal Reserve is scheduled to accelerate its quantitative tightening program. Both equity and debt capital remain very liquid, supporting an active commercial real estate transaction market. However, we believe that if interest rates increase significantly in a short period of time, they could restrain transaction activity as the higher cost of capital widens the expectation gap between buyers and sellers. Lenders have remained active in both the placement and pricing of capital, but caution has risen over the last quarter. Based on Federal Reserve Chairman Powell comments, many believe the Federal Reserve’s overnight rate could be lifted by a total of 300 to 400 basis points in 2022. While many investors believe the Federal Reserve rate increases will translate to higher commercial real estate mortgage costs, other factors could come into play. Federal Reserve action and long-term interest rates tend to not have a
one-to-one
movement relationship and can even move contrary to each other on occasion. Should there be a significant financial market or geopolitical disruption, an investor flight to safety could act as a meaningful counterbalance to upward pressure from the benchmark rate.
Investor Sentiment and Investment Activity
We rely on investors to buy and sell properties in order to generate commissions. Investors’ desires to engage in real estate transactions are dependent on many factors that are beyond our control. The economy, supply and demand for properly positioned properties, available credit and market events impact investor sentiment and, therefore, transaction velocity. In addition, our private clients, who make up the largest source of revenue, are often motivated to buy, sell and/or refinance properties due to personal circumstances, such as death, divorce, partnership breakups and estate planning.
Commercial real estate sales dollar volume set a record high in 2021, and the momentum largely carried into the first half of 2022. However, rising interest rates have begun to modestly restrain transaction flow moving the market back toward traditional levels. Assets trading at historically high prices in the most sought-after markets have in many cases generated fewer bids than last year while properties offering higher yields in slower growth metros have largely sustained momentum thus far. The rising cost of debt capital, perceptions of rising recession risk and the tempering of occupancy gains and rent growth relative to 2021 have led investors to more carefully calibrate their underwriting assumptions. In some cases, this has widened the buyer/seller expectation gap, in turn moderating investment activity. Industrial and apartment properties have remained in high demand, with hotels, self-storage and necessity-based retail centers also attracting investor attention. Interest in office properties and seniors housing has remained softer by historical standards as investors continue to consider the impact of
COVID-19
and work-from-home business models. Looking forward, elevated inflation and stock market volatility could bolster interest in commercial real estate investments as many believe the sector offers increased inflation resistance and stability. This may at least partially offset the headwind posed by rising interest rates.
Key Financial Measures and Indicators
Revenues
Our revenues are primarily generated from our real estate investment sales business. In addition to real estate brokerage commissions, we generate revenues from financing fees and from other revenues, which are primarily comprised of consulting and advisory fees.
 
27

Table of Contents
Because our business is transaction oriented, we rely on investment sales and financing professionals to continually develop leads, identify properties to sell and finance, market those properties and close the sale timely to generate a consistent flow of revenue. While our sales volume is impacted by seasonality factors, the timing of closings is also dependent on many market and personal factors unique to a particular client or transaction, particularly clients transacting in the
$1-$10 million
private client market segment. These factors can cause transactions to be accelerated or delayed beyond our control. Further, commission rates earned are generally inversely related to the value of the property sold. As a result of our expansion into the middle and larger transaction market segments, we have seen our overall commission rates fluctuate from
period-to-period
as a result of changes in the relative mix of the number and volume of investment sales transactions closed in the middle and larger transaction market segments as compared to the
$1-$10 million
private client market segment. These factors may result in
period-to-period
variations in our revenues that differ from historical patterns.
A small percentage of our transactions include retainer fees and/or breakage fees. Retainer fees are credited against a success-based fee paid upon the closing of a transaction or a breakage fee. Transactions that are terminated before completion will sometimes generate breakage fees, which are usually calculated as a set amount or a percentage of the fee we would have received had the transaction closed.
Real Estate Brokerage Commissions
We earn real estate brokerage commissions by acting as a broker for commercial real estate owners seeking to sell or investors seeking to buy properties. Revenues from real estate brokerage commissions are recognized at the close of escrow.
Financing Fees
We earn financing fees by securing financing on purchase transactions or by securing refinancing of our clients’ existing mortgage debt. We recognize financing fee revenues at the time the loan closes, and we have no remaining significant obligations in connection with the transaction.
To a lesser extent, we also earn fees on loan performance, equity advisory services, loan sales, loan guarantees and ancillary services associated with financing activities. We recognize guarantee fees over the term of the guarantee and other fees when we have no further obligations, generally upon the closing of a transaction. We previously generated mortgage servicing fees through the provision of collection, remittance, recordkeeping, reporting and other related mortgage servicing functions, activities and services. We recognized mortgage servicing revenues upon the acquisition of a servicing obligation.
Other Revenues
Other revenues include fees generated from consulting, advisory and other real estate services performed by our investment sales professionals, as well as referral fees from other real estate brokers. Revenues from these services are recognized as they are performed and completed.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses consist of cost of services, selling, general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization. The significant components of our expenses are further described below.
Cost of Services
The majority of our cost of services expense is variable commissions paid to our investment sales professionals and compensation-related costs related to our financing activities. Commission expenses are directly attributable to providing services to our clients for investment sales and financing services. Most of our investment sales and financing professionals are independent contractors and are paid commissions; however, because there are some who are initially paid a salary and certain of our financing professionals are employees, costs of services also include employee-related compensation, employer taxes and benefits for those employees. The commission rates we pay to our investment sales and financing professionals vary based on individual contracts negotiated and are generally higher for the more experienced professionals. Some of our most senior investment sales and financing professionals can also earn additional commissions after meeting certain annual financial thresholds. These additional commissions are recognized as cost of services in the period in which they are earned. Payment of a portion of these additional commissions are generally deferred for a period of one to three years, at our election, and paid at the beginning of the second, third or fourth calendar year. Cost of services also includes referral fees paid to other real estate brokers where we are the principal service provider. Cost of services, therefore, can vary based on the commission structure of the independent contractors that closed transactions in any particular period.

Table of Contents
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
The largest expense component within selling, general and administrative expenses is personnel expenses for our management team and sales and support staff. In addition, these costs include facilities costs (excluding depreciation and amortization), staff related expenses, sales, marketing, legal, telecommunication, network, data sources, transaction costs related to acquisitions, changes in fair value for contingent and deferred consideration and other administrative expenses. Also included in selling, general and administrative are expenses for stock-based compensation to
non-employee
directors, employees and independent contractors (i.e. investment sales and financing professionals) under the Amended and Restated 2013 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (“2013 Plan”) and the 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”).
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation expense consists of depreciation recorded on our computer software and hardware and furniture, fixture and equipment. Depreciation is provided over estimated useful lives ranging from three to seven years for assets. Amortization expense consists of (i) amortization recorded on our mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) using the interest method over the period that servicing income is expected to be received and (ii) amortization recorded on intangible assets amortized on a straight-line basis using a useful life between one and seven years.
Other (Expense) Income, Net
Other income, net primarily consists of interest income, net gains or losses on our deferred compensation plan assets, realized gains and losses on our marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale,
foreign currency gains and losses and other
non-operating
income and expenses.
Interest Expense
Interest expense primarily consists of interest expense associated with the stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) liability, and our Credit Agreement.
Provision for Income Taxes
We are subject to U.S. and Canadian federal taxes and individual state and local taxes based on the income generated in the jurisdictions in which we operate. Our effective tax rate fluctuates as a result of the change in the mix of our activities in the jurisdictions in which we operate due to differing tax rates in those jurisdictions and the impact of permanent items, including compensation charges, qualified transportation fringe benefits, uncertain tax positions, meals and entertainment and
tax-exempt
deferred compensation plan assets. Our provision for income taxes includes the windfall tax benefits and shortfall expenses, net, from shares issued in connection with our 2013 Plan and ESPP.
We record deferred taxes, net based on the tax rate expected to be in effect at the time those items are expected to be recognized for tax purposes.

Results of Operations
Following is a discussion of our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The tables included in the period comparisons below provide summaries of our results of operations. The
period-to-period
comparisons of financial results are not necessarily indicative of future results.
Key Operating Metrics
We regularly review a number of key metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions. We also believe these metrics are relevant to investors’ and others’ assessment of our financial condition and results of operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we closed more than 3,600 and 3,200 investment sales, financing and other transactions, respectively, with total sales volume of approximately $26.4 billion and $17.4 billion, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we closed more than 6,500 and 5,600 investment sales, financing and other transactions, respectively, with total sales volume of approximately $47.4 billion and $29.4 billion, respectively. Such key metrics for real estate brokerage and financing activities (excluding other transactions) are as follows:

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For a definition of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, see
“Non-GAAP
Financial Measure.”
Revenues
Our total revenues were $396.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $284.9 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $111.0 million, or 39%. Total revenues increased as a result of increases in real estate brokerage commissions, financing fees and other revenues, as described below.
Real estate brokerage commissions.
Revenues from real estate brokerage commissions increased to $354.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $252.9 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $101.8 million, or 40.2%. The increase was primarily driven by a 46.5% increase in overall sales volume generated by a 15.2% increase in the number of investment sales transactions and a 27.1% increase in average transaction size. The revenue from the combined Middle Market and Larger Transaction Market increased 58.5% in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the same period last year and represented 38.9% of the brokerage revenue in the second quarter of 2022 versus 34.5% of the brokerage revenue in the second quarter of 2021. The average commission rates in the second quarter of 2022 decreased by 8 basis points compared to the same period last year primarily as a result of the increase in average transaction size as larger transactions typically earn lower commission rates.
Financing fees
. Revenues from financing fees increased to $36.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $28.2 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $8.6 million, or 30.5%, resulting primarily from the 52.6% increase in average transaction size as the number of financing transactions remained relatively flat. The average fee rate declined by 12 basis points due to the larger size of financing transactions as larger transactions typically earn lower commission rates.
Other revenues
. Other revenues increased to $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $3.8 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $0.6 million, or 16.5%. The increase was primarily driven by increases in consulting and advisory services during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021.

Total Operating Expenses
Our total operating expenses were $339.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $243.3 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $95.9 million, or 39.4%. The increase was due to increases in cost of services, which are variable commissions paid to our investment sales professionals and compensation-related costs in connection with our financing activities, selling, general and administrative costs and depreciation and amortization expense, as described below.
Cost of services.
Cost of services increased to $256.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $178.6 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $77.5 million, or 43.4%. The increase was primarily due to increased commission expenses driven by the related increased revenues noted above. Cost of services as a percent of total revenues increased to 64.7% compared to 62.7% for the same period in 2021 primarily due to our senior investment sales and financing professionals who earn additional commissions after meeting certain annual financial thresholds, reaching their thresholds earlier due to the increase in sales volume.
Selling, general, and administrative expense.
Selling, general and administrative expense for the second quarter of 2022 increased to $79.8 million, from $61.8 million compared to the same period in the prior year, an increase of $18.0 million or 29.2%. The change was primarily due to increases in (i) compensation related costs, primarily driven by increases in management performance compensation due to significant year-over-year growth in operating results; (ii) business development, marketing and other support related to the long-term retention of our sales and financing professionals; and (iii) return to
in-person
agent and client business events, conferences, and meetings.
Depreciation and amortization expense.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $3.0 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $0.4 million, or 12.6%, principally related to additional amortization of intangible assets related to recent acquisitions and additional amortization of mortgage servicing rights due to the cancellation notices received on certain servicing contracts.
Other (Expense) Income, Net
Other (expense) income, net decreased to a net expense of $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from income of $1.4 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by an unfavorable change in the value of our deferred compensation plan assets that are held in a rabbi trust and due to the $0.3 million loss on sale of the remaining mortgage servicing rights.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was comparable for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and primarily relates to interest expense on the Company’s stock appreciation rights liability.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $14.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $11.3 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $2.7 million. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was 24.9% compared to 26.4% for the same period in 2021. The effective income tax rate decreased primarily due to an increase in windfall tax benefits, net related to the settlement of stock-based awards, partially offset by an increase in permanent items that are not tax deductible.

The increase was primarily driven by a 65.3% increase in overall sales volume generated by a 23.1% increase in the number of investment sales transactions and a 34.3% increase in average transaction size. The revenue from the combined Middle Market and Larger Transaction Market increased 86.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the same period last year and represented 40.2% of the brokerage revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022, versus 33.3% of the brokerage revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The average commission rates in the six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by 12 basis points compared to the same period last year, primarily as a result of the increase in average transaction size as larger transactions typically earn lower commission rates.
Financing fees

Revenues from financing fees increased to $63.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $46.1 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $17.2 million, or 37.4%, resulting primarily from the 53.8% increase in average transaction size, and to a lesser extent, a 3.3% increase in the number of financing transactions. The average fee rate declined by 11 basis points as larger transactions typically earn lower commission rates.
Other revenues
. Other revenues increased to $10.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $7.2 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $3.4 million, or 47.4%.

Cost of services.
Cost of services increased to $452.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $287.7 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $165.1 million, or 57.4%. The increase was primarily due to increased commission expenses driven by the related increased revenues noted above. Cost of services as a percent of total revenues increased to 63.3% compared to 61.4% for the same period in 2021 primarily due to our senior investment sales and financing professionals who earn additional commissions after meeting certain annual financial thresholds, reaching their thresholds earlier due to the increase in sales volume.
Selling, general, and administrative expense.
Selling, general and administrative expense for six months ended June 30, 2022 increased to $154.4 million from $113.5 million compared to the same period in 2021, an increase of $40.9 million, or 36.0%. The change was primarily due to increases in (i) compensation related costs, primarily driven by increases in management performance compensation due to significant year-over-year growth in operating results; (ii) business development, marketing and other support related to the long-term retention of our sales and financing professionals; and (iii) return to
in-person
agent and client business events, conferences, and meetings.
Depreciation and amortization expense.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $6.0 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $1.3 million, or 21.6%, principally related to additional amortization of intangible assets related to recent acquisitions and additional amortization of mortgage servicing rights due to the cancellation notices received on certain servicing contracts.
Other (Expense) Income, Net
Other (expense) income, net decreased to a net expense of $11,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $2.4 million of income for the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by an unfavorable change in the value of our deferred compensation plan assets that are held in a rabbi trust and due to the $0.3 million loss on sale of the remaining mortgage servicing rights.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was comparable for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and primarily relates to interest expense on the Company’s stock appreciation rights liability.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $25.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $17.4 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $8.3 million. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was 25.5% compared to 27.2% for the same period in 2021. The effective income tax rate decreased primarily due to an increase in windfall tax benefits, net related to the settlement of stock-based awards, partially offset by an increase in permanent items that are not tax deductible.
Non-GAAP
Financial Measure
In this quarterly report on Form
10-Q,
we include a
non-GAAP
financial measure, adjusted earnings before interest income/expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and other
non-cash
items, or Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before (i) interest income and other, including net realized gains (losses) on marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale
and cash and cash equivalents, (ii) interest expense, (iii) provision for income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) stock-based compensation, and
(vi) non-cash
Mortgage Servicing Rights (“MSR”) activity. We use Adjusted EBITDA in our business operations to evaluate the performance of our business, develop budgets and measure our performance against those budgets, among other things. We also believe that analysts and investors use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate our overall operating performance. However, Adjusted EBITDA has material limitations as a supplemental metric and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. We find Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful management metric to assist in evaluating performance, because Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items related to capital structure, taxes and
non-cash
items. In light of the foregoing limitations, we do not rely solely on Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure and also consider our U.S. GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in the same manner by all companies, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, net income, to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale
and, if necessary, borrowings under our Credit Agreement. In order to enhance yield to us, we have invested a portion of our cash in money market funds and fixed and variable income debt securities, in accordance with our investment policy approved by the board of directors. Certain of our investments in money market funds may not maintain a stable net asset value and may impose fees on redemptions and/or gating fees. To date, the Company has not experienced any restrictions or gating fees on its ability to redeem funds from money market funds. Although we have historically funded our operations through operating cash flows, there can be no assurance that we can continue to meet our cash requirements entirely through our operations, cash and cash equivalents, proceeds from the sale of marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale

Cash Flows
Our total cash and cash equivalents balance decreased by $170.5 million to $211.6 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $382.1 million at December 31, 2021. The following table sets forth our summary cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):

Operating Activities
Cash flows used in operating activities were $51.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $33.5 million for the same period in 2021. The $85.3 million decrease in operating cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to an increase in advances to our investment sales and financing professionals, higher amount of deferred discretionary commissions paid, and higher bonus payments, partially offset by increased cash flows from increased sales and financing volume.

Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities were $56.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to cash flows used in investing activities of $41.9 million for the same period in 2021. The $14.7 million increase in cash flow used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to a $12.7 million increase in cash used in acquisitions of businesses, net of cash received during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.
Financing Activities
Cash flows used in financing activities were $61.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $4.5 million for the same period in 2021. The $57.4 million additional cash flow used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to a payment of $50.1 million of dividends in the second quarter and an increase of $6.0 million of taxes paid related to net share settlement of stock-based awards.
Liquidity
We believe that our existing balances of cash and cash equivalents, cash flows expected to be generated from our operations, proceeds from the sale of marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale
and borrowings available under the Credit Agreement (defined below) will be sufficient to satisfy our operating requirements for at least the next 12 months. If we need to raise additional capital through public or private debt or equity financings, strategic relationships or other arrangements, this capital might not be available to us in a timely manner, on acceptable terms, or at all. Our failure to raise sufficient capital when needed could prevent us from funding acquisitions or otherwise financing our growth or operations. As of June 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents and marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale,
aggregated $542.3 million, and we had $59.5 million of borrowing capacity under our Credit Agreement.
Credit Agreement
We have a Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association for a $60.0 million principal amount senior secured revolving credit facility that is guaranteed by all of our domestic subsidiaries and matures on June 1, 2025 (the “Credit Agreement”). See Note 12 – “Commitments and Contingencies” of our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Credit Agreement.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company, in connection with the Strategic Alliance with M&T Realty Capital Corporation (“MTRCC”), has agreed to provide loan opportunities that may be funded through MTRCC’s agreement with Fannie Mae which requires MTRCC to guarantee a portion of each funded loan. On
a loan-by-loan basis,
the Company, at its option, can assume a portion of MTRCC’s guarantee obligation to Fannie Mae of loan opportunities presented to and closed by MTRCC. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has agreed to a maximum aggregate guarantee obligation of $25.4 million relating to loans with an unpaid balance of $152.6 million. The maximum guarantee obligation is not representative of the actual loss we would incur. The Company would be liable for this amount only if all of the loans for which it is providing a guarantee to MTRCC were to default and all of the collateral underlying these loans was determined to be without value at the time of settlement.
Material Cash Requirements
There have been no material changes in our commitments under contractual obligations, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2021 through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, other than for the payment of dividends and dividend equivalents declared by our board of directors in the first quarter of 2022, aggregating $52.1 million, and a semi-annual regular dividend of $0.25 per share of outstanding common stock declared on August 2, 2022.
Inflation
Our commissions and other variable costs related to revenue are primarily affected by real estate market supply and demand, which may be affected by uncertain or changing economic and market conditions, including inflation/deflation arising in connection with and in response to various macroeconomic factors, including the effects of the
COVID-19
pandemic on the broader economy.
The Federal Reserve has begun to combat inflation through monetary policy including
ramping-up
quantitative tightening and by raising the Federal Funds Rate. While commercial real estate investments are generally considered to be relatively inflation resistant, the upward pressure on interest rates has the potential to affect investor activity and therefore transactional activity from which we generate revenues. Investor activity could depend on the magnitude of changes in interest rates relative to the elevated level of capital liquidity targeting commercial real estate. The actual economic impact from inflation to our business remains unknown at this time.

Critical Accounting Policies; Use of Estimates
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In applying many of these accounting principles, we make assumptions, estimates and/or judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. These assumptions, estimates and/or judgments, however, are often subjective and our actual results may change based on changing circumstances or changes in our analyses. If actual amounts are ultimately different from our estimates, the revisions are included in our results of operations for the period in which the actual amounts become known. There were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For information regarding recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 1 – “Description of Business, Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements” of our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Although we do not believe any of the other accounting pronouncements listed in that note will have a significant impact on our business, we are still in the process of determining the impact the new pronouncements may have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We maintain a portfolio of investments in a variety of fixed and variable debt rate securities, including U.S. Treasuries, U.S. government sponsored entities, corporate debt, asset-backed securities and other. As of June 30, 2022, the fair value of investments in marketable debt securities,
available-for-sale
was $330.6 million. The primary objective of our investment activity is to maintain the safety of principal and to provide for future liquidity requirements while maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. While some investments may be securities of companies in foreign countries, all investments are denominated and payable in U.S. Dollars. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. While our intent is not to sell these investment securities prior to their stated maturities, we may choose to sell any of the securities for strategic reasons including, but not limited to, anticipated capital requirements, anticipation of credit deterioration, duration management and because a security no longer meets the criteria of our investment policy. We do not use derivatives or similar instruments to manage our interest rate risk. We seek to invest in high quality investments. The weighted average rating (exclusive of cash and cash equivalents) was AA+ as of June 30, 2022. Maturities are maintained consistent with our short-, medium- and long-term liquidity objectives.
Currently, our portfolio of investments predominantly consists of fixed interest rate debt securities; however, a portion of our investment portfolio may consist of variable interest rate debt securities. Our investments in fixed interest rate debt securities are subject to various market risks. Changes in prevailing interest rates may adversely or positively impact their fair market value should interest rates generally rise or fall. Accordingly, we also may have interest rate risk with variable interest rate debt securities as the income produced may decrease if interest rates fall. Contraction in market liquidity may adversely affect the value of portions of our portfolio and affect our ability to sell securities in the time frames required and at acceptable prices. Uncertainty in future market conditions may raise market participant’s expectations of returns, thus impacting the value of securities in our portfolio as well. The following table sets forth the impact on the fair value of our investments as of June 30, 2022 from changes in interest rates based on the weighted average duration of the debt securities in our portfolio (in thousands):
 
Change in Interest Rates
   Approximate Change in
Fair Value of Investments

   $ 5,729  
1% Decrease
   $ 2,873  
1% Increase
   $ (2,872
2% Increase
   $ (5,743
Due to the nature of our business and the manner in which we conduct our operations, we believe we do not face any material interest rate risk with respect to other assets and liabilities, equity price risk or other market risks. The functional currency of our Canadian operations is the Canadian dollar. We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk for the settlement of transactions of the Canadian operations as well as unrealized translation adjustments. To date, realized foreign currency exchange rate gains and losses have not been material.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules
13a-15(f),
including maintenance of (i) records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets, and (ii) policies and procedures that provide reasonable assurance that (a) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, (b) our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and our board of directors and (c) we will prevent or timely detect unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Our management, with the supervision and participation of our chief executive officer (“CEO”) and chief financial officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules
13a-
15(e) and
15d-
15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Form
10-Q,
based on the criteria established under the Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework). Based on such evaluation, our management has concluded that as of June 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules
13a-15(f)
and
15d-15(f)
under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any significant impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that a significant number of our employees and independent contractors are still working remotely due to
the COVID-19 pandemic.
The design of our processes and controls allow for remote execution with accessibility to secure data. We are continually monitoring and assessing
the COVID-19 situation
to minimize the impact, if any, on the design and operating effectiveness on our internal controls.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are involved in claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business, some of which involve claims for damages that are substantial in amount. Most of these litigation matters are covered by our insurance policies, which contain deductibles, exclusions, claim limits and aggregate policy limits. Such litigation and other proceedings may include, but are not limited to, actions relating to commercial relationships, standard brokerage disputes like the alleged failure to disclose physical or environmental defects or property expenses or contracts, the alleged inadequate disclosure of matters relating to the transaction like the relationships among the parties to the transaction, potential claims or losses pertaining to the asset, vicarious liability based upon conduct of individuals or entities outside of our control, general fraud claims, conflicts of interest claims, employment law claims, including claims challenging the classification of our sales professionals as independent contractors, claims alleging violations of state consumer fraud statutes and intellectual property. While the ultimate liability for these legal proceedings cannot be determined, we review the need for an accrual for loss contingencies quarterly and record an accrual for litigation related losses where the likelihood of loss is both probable and estimable. We do not believe, based on information currently available to us, that the final outcome of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Exhibit 10.1

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated July 28, is by and between MARCUS & MILLICHAP, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“Bank”). This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes in its entirety, and is given as a replacement for, and not in satisfaction of or as a novation with respect to, that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated May 28, 2019 by and between Borrower and Bank, as such may have been amended from time to time prior to the date hereof.

RECITALS

Borrower has requested that Bank extend or continue credit to Borrower as described below, and Bank has agreed to provide such credit to Borrower on the terms and conditions contained herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Bank and Borrower hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

CREDIT TERMS

SECTION 1.1.    LINE OF CREDIT.

(a)    Line of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from time to time up to and including the Maturity Date, not to exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of Sixty Million Dollars ($60,000,000) (“Line of Credit”), the proceeds of which shall be used to finance Borrower’s working capital requirements and general corporate needs (including, without limitation, mergers and acquisitions and international expansion permitted or not prohibited under this Agreement). Borrower’s obligation to repay advances under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note dated July 28, 2022, as modified from time to time (“Line of Credit Note”).

(b)    Borrowing and Repayment. Borrower may from time to time during the term of the Line of Credit borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions contained herein or in the Line of Credit Note; provided however, that the total outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit shall not at any time exceed the maximum principal amount available thereunder, as set forth herein.

(c)    Letter of Credit Subfeature. As a subfeature under the Line of Credit, Bank agrees from time to time during the term thereof to issue or cause a branch, a subsidiary or an affiliate to issue standby letters of credit and sight commercial letters of credit for the account of Borrower (“Subfeature Letters of Credit”); provided however, that the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Subfeature Letters of Credit shall not at any time exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000). Bank shall have no obligation to issue a Subfeature Letter of Credit if (i) any order, judgment, or decree of any governmental authority or arbitrator shall, by its terms, purport to enjoin or restrain Bank from issuing such Subfeature Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority with jurisdiction over Bank shall prohibit or request that Bank refrain from the issuing of letters of credit generally or such Subfeature Letter of Credit in particular, or (ii) such Subfeature Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of Bank applicable to

 

C-203MMB_ALL.docx (Rev. 02/22)    -1-    LOGO


letters of credit generally, or (iii) amounts demanded to be paid under any Subfeature Letter of Credit will not or may not be in United States Dollars. The form and substance of each Subfeature Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by Bank, in its sole but reasonable discretion. No Subfeature Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date more than three hundred sixty five (365) days beyond the maturity date of the Line of Credit. The undrawn amount of all Subfeature Letters of Credit shall be reserved under the Line of Credit and shall not be available for borrowings thereunder. Each Subfeature Letter of Credit shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions of Bank’s standard standby letter of credit agreement or Bank’s standard commercial letter of credit agreement and all applications and related documents required by Bank in connection with the issuance thereof. Each drawing paid under a Subfeature Letter of Credit shall be deemed an advance under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to such advances; provided however, that if advances under the Line of Credit are not available, for any reason, at the time any drawing is paid, then Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank the full amount drawn, together with interest thereon from the date such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the rate of interest applicable to advances under the Line of Credit.

SECTION 1.2.    INTEREST/FEES.

(a)    Interest. The outstanding principal balance of each credit subject hereto shall bear interest at the rate of interest set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document executed in connection therewith. The promissory notes or other instruments or documents executed in connection with the credit(s) subject to this Agreement may calculate interest at a rate equal to the sum of an index rate of interest plus a margin rate of interest. In the event any index rate of interest would be less than zero percent (0.0%), then the index rate of interest shall be deemed to be zero percent (0.0%) and the applicable promissory note or other instrument or document shall bear interest at a rate equal to the margin rate of interest.

(b)    Computation and Payment. Interest shall be computed on the basis set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document required hereby. Interest shall be payable at the times and place set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document required hereby.

(c)    Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Bank a non-refundable annual commitment fee for the Line of Credit equal to Thirty Five Thousand Dollars ($35,000) for each year, which fee shall be due and payable in full on each July 1 during the term of this Agreement.

(d)    Unused Commitment Fee. For any day in which the usage amount of the Line of Credit falls below the daily unused percentage range set forth below, Borrower shall pay to Bank a fee equal to the percentage per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) set forth below on the daily unused amount of the Line of Credit, which fee shall be calculated on a quarterly basis by Bank and shall be due and payable by Borrower in arrears on the first Business Day of each fiscal quarter, commencing on July 1, 2022. As used herein, the term “Business Day” means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or other day on which banks in the State of California are authorized or required to close.

SECTION 1.3.    COLLECTION OF PAYMENTS. Except to the extent expressly specified otherwise in any Loan Document other than this Agreement, Borrower authorizes Bank to collect all amounts due to Bank from Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (whether for principal, interest or fees, or as reimbursement of drafts paid or other payments made by Bank under any credit subject to this Agreement) by debiting any business purpose deposit account maintained by Borrower with Bank for the full amount thereof. Should there be insufficient funds in Borrower’s business purpose deposit accounts with Bank to pay all such sums when due, or if any such payment is collected but is subsequently reversed or rendered ineffective, or Bank is required to turn over, restore, or otherwise return any such paid amount to Borrower, a trustee-in-bankruptcy, or anyone else, due to a bankruptcy or for any other reason, the full amount of such deficiency, or the full amount reversed, rendered ineffective, turned over, restored or otherwise returned, as applicable, shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower. The determination of whether any such payment must be turned over, restored or otherwise returned shall be made by Bank in its sole discretion; provided however, that if Bank chooses (but in no event shall Bank be obligated) to contest any such matter at the request of Borrower, Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold Bank harmless from and against all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expended or incurred by Bank in connection therewith, including without limitation, in any litigation with respect thereto (other than arising as a result of Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct). For purposes hereof, a “business purpose deposit account” is any deposit account other than a deposit account established primarily for personal, family or household purposes.

The foregoing authorization shall remain in full force and effect until written revocation from Borrower has been received by Bank at its address for notices set forth in Section 7.2. hereof. In order to commence application of said cancellation with respect to a payment due date or payoff of a loan, Bank must be notified of said cancellation at least three (3) business days prior to such payment due date or payoff.

SECTION 1.4.    COLLATERAL.

As security for all indebtedness and other obligations of Borrower to Bank arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, other than indebtedness that is excluded from such secured obligations by the terms of the security agreement(s) required hereunder, Borrower shall grant to Bank security interests of first priority (subject to Permitted Liens) in all Borrower’s personal property assets other than (i) the M&T Realty Capital Collateral Account and (ii) any such property that constitutes the capital stock of a controlled foreign corporation (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code).

As security for all indebtedness and other obligations of Borrower to Bank arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents , other than indebtedness that is excluded from such secured obligations by the terms of the security agreement(s) required hereunder, Borrower shall cause each domestic corporate guarantor to grant to Bank security interests of first priority in all of its personal property assets; except to the extent any such property constitutes the capital stock of a controlled foreign corporation (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code) in which case no such pledge shall be required.

 

C-203MMB_ALL.docx (Rev. 02/22)    -3-   


All of the foregoing shall be evidenced by and subject to the terms of such security agreements, financing statements, deeds or mortgages, and other documents as Bank shall reasonably require, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank. Borrower shall pay to Bank within ten (10) days after written demand the full amount of all documented charges, costs and expenses (to include fees paid to third parties and all allocated costs of Bank personnel), expended or incurred by Bank in connection with any of the foregoing security, including without limitation, filing and recording fees and costs of appraisals, audits and title insurance.

SECTION 1.5.    GUARANTIES. The payment and performance of all indebtedness and other obligations of Borrower to Bank shall be guaranteed jointly and severally by all of Borrower’s domestic subsidiaries, currently existing and formed in the future, as evidenced by and subject to the terms of guaranties in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank.

ARTICLE II

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Borrower makes the following representations and warranties to Bank, on the date hereof, on the date of Borrower’s execution hereof, and on the date of each subsequent request for any extension of credit hereunder (including, without limitation, the issuance of any product under any subfeature contained herein, to the extent applicable), which representations and warranties shall survive the execution of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect until the full and final payment, and satisfaction and discharge, of all obligations of Borrower to Bank subject to this Agreement.

SECTION 2.1.    LEGAL STATUS. (a) Borrower is a corporation, duly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware, and is qualified or licensed to do business (and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, if applicable) in all jurisdictions in which such qualification or licensing is required or in which the failure to so qualify or to be so licensed could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower; and (b) no member of the Borrowing Group (as defined below) is a Sanctioned Target (as defined below) of economic or financial sanctions, sectoral sanctions, secondary sanctions, trade embargoes or restrictions and anti-terrorism laws imposed, administered or enforced from time to time by the United States of America, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, the United Kingdom, any other governmental authority with jurisdiction over Borrower or any member of the Borrowing Group (collectively, “Sanctions”). As used herein, “Borrowing Group” means: (i) Borrower, (ii) any direct or indirect parent of Borrower, (iii) any affiliate or subsidiary of Borrower, (iv) any Third Party Obligor (as defined below), and (v) any officer, director or agent acting on behalf of any of the parties referred to in items (i) through and including (iv) with respect to the obligations hereunder, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. “Sanctioned Target” means any target of Sanctions, including (i) persons on any list of targets identified or designated pursuant to any Sanctions, (ii) persons, countries, or territories that are the target of any territorial or country-based Sanctions program, (iii) persons that are a target of Sanctions due to their ownership or control by any Sanctioned Target(s), or (iv) persons otherwise a target of Sanctions, including vessels and aircraft, that are designated under any Sanctions program.

SECTION 2.2.    AUTHORIZATION AND VALIDITY. This Agreement and each promissory note, contract, instrument and other document required hereby or at any time hereafter delivered to Bank in connection herewith (collectively, the “Loan Documents”) have been duly authorized, and upon their execution and delivery in accordance with the provisions

 

C-203MMB_ALL.docx (Rev. 02/22)    -4-   


hereof will constitute legal, valid and binding agreements and obligations of Borrower or the party which executes the same, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, moratorium or other similar laws of general application and equitable principles relating to or affecting creditor’s rights.

SECTION 2.3.    NO VIOLATION.

C-203MMB_ALL.docx (Rev. 02/22)    -19-   


the payment of, Borrower’s obligations and liabilities under the Loan Documents (whether matured or unmatured, fixed or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated), any and all amounts owing by Bank to Borrower (whether payable in U.S. dollars or any other currency, whether matured or unmatured, and in the case of deposits, whether general or special (except trust and escrow accounts), time or demand and however evidenced), and (b) pending any such action, to the extent necessary, to hold such amounts as collateral to secure such obligations and liabilities and to return as unpaid for insufficient funds any and all checks and other items drawn against any deposits so held as Bank, in its sole discretion, may elect. Bank may exercise this remedy regardless of the adequacy of any collateral for the obligations of Borrower to Bank and whether or not the Bank is otherwise fully secured. Borrower hereby grants to Bank a security interest in all deposits and accounts maintained with Bank to secure the payment of all obligations and liabilities of Borrower to Bank under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 7.13.    ARBITRATION.

(a)    Arbitration. The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party, to submit to binding arbitration all claims, disputes and controversies between or among them (and their respective employees, officers, directors, attorneys, and other agents), whether in tort, contract or otherwise in any way arising out of or relating to (i) any credit subject hereto, or any of the Loan Documents, and their negotiation, execution, collateralization, administration, repayment, modification, extension, substitution, formation, inducement, enforcement, default or termination; or (ii) requests for additional credit. In the event of a court ordered arbitration, the party requesting arbitration shall be responsible for timely filing the demand for arbitration and paying the appropriate filing fee within 30 days of the abatement order or the time specified by the court. Failure to timely file the demand for arbitration as ordered by the court will result in that party’s right to demand arbitration being automatically terminated.

(b)    Governing Rules. Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in a location in the State selected by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”); (ii) be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the documents between the parties; and (iii) be conducted by the AAA, or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the AAA’s commercial dispute resolution procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive of claimed interest, arbitration fees and costs in which case the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA’s optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes (the commercial dispute resolution procedures or the optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes to be referred to herein, as applicable, as the “Rules”). If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and procedures set forth herein shall control. Any party who fails or refuses to submit to arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any dispute. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that is a bank of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. §91 or any similar applicable state law.

(c)    No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i) foreclose against real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercise self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the appointment of a receiver, before during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to arbitration or reference hereunder, including those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph.

 

C-203MMB_ALL.docx (Rev. 02/22)    -20-   


(d)    Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers. Any arbitration proceeding in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a single arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an award of greater than $5,000,000.00. Any dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all hearings and deliberations. The arbitrator will be a neutral attorney licensed in the State or a neutral retired judge of the state or federal judiciary of the State, in either case with a minimum of ten years’ experience in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the dispute to be arbitrated. The arbitrator will determine whether or not an issue is arbitratable and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in determining any claim. In any arbitration proceeding the arbitrator will decide (by documents only or with a hearing at the arbitrator’s discretion) any pre-hearing motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim or motions for summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall resolve all disputes in accordance with the substantive law of the State and may grant any remedy or relief that a court of such state could order or grant within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any award. The arbitrator shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator deems necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the corresponding rules of civil practice and procedure applicable in the State or other applicable law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.

(e)    Discovery. In any arbitration proceeding, discovery will be permitted in accordance with the Rules. All discovery shall be expressly limited to matters directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated and must be completed no later than 20 days before the hearing date. Any requests for an extension of the discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for discovery is essential for the party’s presentation and that no alternative means for obtaining information is available.

(f)    Class Proceedings and Consolidations. No party hereto shall be entitled to join or consolidate disputes by or against others in any arbitration, except parties who have executed any Loan Document, or to include in any arbitration any dispute as a representative or member of a class, or to act in any arbitration in the interest of the general public or in a private attorney general capacity.

(g)    Payment of Arbitration Costs and Fees. The arbitrator shall award all costs and expenses of the arbitration proceeding.

(h)    Real Property Collateral; Judicial Reference. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no dispute shall be submitted to arbitration if the dispute concerns indebtedness secured directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by any real property unless (i) the holder of the mortgage, lien or security interest specifically elects in writing to proceed with the arbitration, or (ii) all parties to the arbitration waive any rights or benefits that might accrue to them by virtue of the single action rule statute of California, thereby agreeing that all indebtedness and obligations of the parties, and all mortgages, liens and security interests securing such

 

C-203MMB_ALL.docx (Rev. 02/22)    -21-   


indebtedness and obligations, shall remain fully valid and enforceable. If any such dispute is not submitted to arbitration, the dispute shall be referred to a referee in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq., and this general reference agreement is intended to be specifically enforceable in accordance with said Section 638. A referee with the qualifications required herein for arbitrators shall be selected pursuant to the AAA’s selection procedures. Judgment upon the decision rendered by a referee shall be entered in the court in which such proceeding was commenced in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644 and 645.

(i)    Miscellaneous. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators and the parties shall take all action required to conclude any arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by a party required in the ordinary course of its business or by applicable law or regulation. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties potentially applies to a dispute, the arbitration provision most directly related to the Loan Documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment or expiration of any of the Loan Documents or any relationship between the parties.

(j)    Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party retains the right to pursue in Small Claims Court any dispute within that court’s jurisdiction. Further, this arbitration provision shall apply only to disputes in which either party seeks to recover an amount of money (excluding attorneys’ fees and costs) that exceeds the jurisdictional limit of the Small Claims Court.

This Note amends, restates and replaces in full that certain Second Amended and Restated Revolver Line of Credit Note, dated as of May 31, 2022, in the principal amount of up to $60,000,000 made by Borrower and payable to the order of Bank previously issued in respect of that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement between Borrower and Bank dated as of May 28, 2019, as amended from time to time (the “Credit Agreement”).

INTEREST.

1.    Definitions. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. As used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth after each, and any other term defined in this Note shall have the meaning set forth at the place defined:

(a)    “Benchmark Floor” means a rate of interest equal to zero percent (0%).

(b)    “Daily Simple SOFR” means, with respect to any day (a “SOFR Rate Day”), a rate per annum equal to SOFR for the day (such day, the “SOFR Determination Day”) that is two (2) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to (i) if such SOFR Rate Day is a U.S. Government Securities Business Day, such SOFR Rate Day or (ii) if such SOFR Rate Day is not a U.S. Government Securities Business Day, the U.S. Government Securities Business Day immediately preceding such SOFR Rate Day, in each case, as such SOFR is published by the SOFR Administrator on the SOFR Administrator’s Website; provided, however, that if Daily Simple SOFR determined as provided above would be less than the Benchmark Floor, then Daily Simple SOFR shall be deemed to be the Benchmark Floor. If by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second (2nd) U.S. Government Securities Business Day immediately following any SOFR Determination Day, SOFR in respect of such SOFR Determination Day has not been published on the SOFR Administrator’s Website and a Benchmark Replacement Date with respect to Daily Simple SOFR has not occurred, then SOFR for such SOFR Determination Day will be SOFR as published in respect of the first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day for which SOFR was published on the SOFR Administrator’s Website; provided that any SOFR determined pursuant to this sentence shall be utilized for purposes of calculation of Daily Simple SOFR for no more than three (3) consecutive SOFR Rate Days.

(d)    “Prime Rate” means at any time the rate of interest most recently announced within Bank at its principal office as its prime rate, with the understanding that the Prime Rate is one of Bank’s base rates and serves as the basis upon which effective rates of interest are calculated for those loans making reference thereto, and is evidenced by the recording thereof after its announcement in such internal publication or publications as Bank may designate; provided, however, that any borrowings hereunder accruing interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate shall not be less than one percent (1%) at any time, regardless of fluctuations in the Prime Rate that may cause the rate of interest applicable to this Note to be less than one percent (1%).

(e)    “SOFR” means a rate per annum equal to the secured overnight financing rate as administered by the SOFR Administrator.

(f)    “SOFR Administrator” means the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (or a successor administrator of the secured overnight financing rate).

(g)    “SOFR Administrator’s Website” means the website of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, currently at http://www.newyorkfed.org, or any successor source for the secured overnight financing rate identified as such by the SOFR Administrator from time to time.

(h)    “U.S. Government Securities Business Day” means any day except for (i) a Saturday, (ii) a Sunday or (iii) a day on which the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, or any successor thereto, recommends that the fixed income departments of its members be closed for the entire day for purposes of trading in United States government securities.

Any capitalized terms not defined herein shall have those meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement (as that term is defined below).

2.    Interest. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) at a rate per annum determined by Bank to be the Applicable Margin plus the Daily Simple SOFR in effect from time to time. The Bank shall be permitted to estimate the amount of accrued interest that is payable at any time hereunder on the applicable invoice provided by Bank to Borrower in respect thereof, in which case Borrower shall pay such estimated amount and Bank shall to the extent necessary, include on the next invoice an adjustment to correct any difference between the amount on the applicable invoice and the amount of interest that actually accrued pursuant to the terms of this Note. Bank is hereby authorized to note the date, principal amount and interest rate applicable thereto and any payments made thereon on Bank’s books and records (either manually or by electronic entry) and/or on any schedule attached to this Note, which notations shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information noted. “Applicable Margin” means, as of any date of determination and with the applicable margin set forth in the following table that corresponds to the Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio for the most recently completed quarter; provided, that any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Applicable Margin shall be set at the margin in the row styled “Level 3”:

 

2


Level    Total Funded Debt/EBITDA    Applicable Margin

1

   less than 1.00x    1.000%

2

   1.01x to 1.50x    1.125%

3

   1.51x or greater    1.250%

The Applicable Margin will be re-determined as of the first business day of Borrower’s fiscal quarter following the quarter during which Bank receives and reviews Borrower’s most current fiscal quarter-end financial statements in accordance with any requirements established by Bank for the preparation and delivery thereof.

3.    Taxes and Regulatory Costs. Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand, in addition to any other amounts due or to become due hereunder, any and all (i) withholdings, interest equalization taxes, stamp taxes or other taxes (except income and franchise taxes) imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority and related in any manner to SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, and (ii) costs, expenses and liabilities arising from or in connection with reserve percentages prescribed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor) for “Eurocurrency Liabilities” (as defined in Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as amended), assessment rates imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or similar requirements or costs imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority or resulting from compliance by Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority and related in any manner to SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR and (iii) taxes, stamp taxes, and insurance payable by reason of the execution and delivery of this Note, the Credit Agreement, and any loan documents. In determining which of the foregoing are attributable to any SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR option available to Borrower hereunder, any reasonable allocation made by Bank among its operations shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.

4.    Payment of Interest. Interest accrued on this Note shall be payable on the first day of each calendar month, commencing August 1, 2022.

5.    Default Interest. From and after the Maturity Date of this Note, or such earlier date as all principal owing hereunder becomes due and payable by acceleration or otherwise, or upon the occurrence, and during the continuance of an Event of Default, then at the option of the Bank the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) at an increased rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) above the rate of interest from time to time applicable to this Note.

6.    Inability to Determine Interest Rates; Illegality. Subject to the Benchmark Replacement Provisions below, if Bank determines (any determination of which shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower) that either (i) Daily Simple SOFR cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof other than as a result of a Benchmark Transition Event (an “Inability Determination”) or (ii) any law has made it unlawful, or that any governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Bank to make or maintain

 

3


an advance based on SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR (an “Illegality Determination”), then Bank will so notify Borrower. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) at a rate per annum determined by Bank to be equal to the Prime Rate in effect from time to time, from the date of an Inability Determination or an Illegality Determination until Bank revokes such Inability Determination or notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such Illegality Determination no longer exist, as applicable. When interest is determined in relation to the Prime Rate, each change in the rate of interest hereunder shall become effective on the date each Prime Rate change is announced within Bank. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, if a Benchmark Replacement is subsequently determined in accordance with applicable Benchmark Replacement Provisions, that Benchmark Replacement, plus any applicable margin, will become effective on the Benchmark Replacement Date and will then supersede the Prime Rate and margin determined in accordance with this provision.

BENCHMARK REPLACEMENT PROVISIONS:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or in any related loan document (for the purposes of these Benchmark Replacement Provisions, a swap agreement by and between Borrower and Bank or any of its affiliates is not a loan document):

(a)    Benchmark Replacement. If a Benchmark Transition Event occurs, the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes under this Note or under any related loan document. Any Benchmark Replacement will become effective on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date without any further action or consent of Borrower.

(b)    Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Bank will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of Borrower.

(c)    Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. Bank will promptly notify Borrower of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Bank pursuant to these Benchmark Replacement Provisions, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and will be made in its sole discretion and without Borrower consent.

(d)    Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Note, each of the following capitalized terms has the meaning given to such term below:

Benchmark” means, initially, Daily Simple SOFR; provided, however, that if a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred with respect to Daily Simple SOFR or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Note.

 

4

Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means any technical, administrative or operational changes (including, without limitation, changes to the timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, prepayment provisions and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that Bank decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of a Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by Bank.

Exhibit 10.2

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This Agreement is made effective the 4th day of August, 2022 (“Effective Date”) by and between Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the “Company”) and John David Parker (“Employee”) with respect to the following:

 

  A.

The Parties desire to enter into an at-will Employment Agreement whereby the Employee will serve in the capacity of Chief Operating Officer – Eastern Division, based in the Company’s Manhattan, NY office.

 

  B.

The Parties agree that Employee’s employment shall be governed by the terms set forth herein, including the arbitration provision, the Employee Manual, and the Company’s policies and procedures.

THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:

 

  1.

Term of At-Will Employment. This Agreement shall be in effect commencing on August 4, 2022. The Company and Employee hereby agree that Employee’s employment with the Company is at-will. Either party may terminate this Agreement with or without cause. Such termination shall not prejudice any remedy which either party may have against the other at law, in equity, or under this Agreement.

 

  2.

Designation and Duties. Beginning on May 4, 2021, Employee was appointed Chief Operating Officer – Eastern Division. Subject to the control and direction of the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors (or one of its Committees), Employee shall serve as an officer of the Company, and shall be responsible for oversight of the Company’s investment sales activities in the eastern United States, and other responsibilities. From time-to-time, these duties may be modified by the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors in their reasonable discretion. Employee is not guaranteed, has not been promised, and has no expectation of any promotion or any other position with the Company other than the one stated in this Agreement. Employee shall serve the Company diligently and according to Employee’s best abilities in all respects, and generally do all things for the best interest of the Company as are usually done by persons occupying similar positions in similar businesses.

 

  3.

Manner of Performance. Employee shall at all times faithfully, industriously, and to the best of Employee’s ability, experience, and talent, perform all duties that may be required of and from Employee, pursuant to the express and implicit terms hereof, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company. Such duties shall be rendered at the above-mentioned premises and at such other place or places as the Company shall require or as the interests, needs, business, and opportunities of the Company shall require or make advisable. Employee acknowledges that Employee has received and has read a copy of the Company’s Employee Policy Manual and Code of Ethics and agrees to abide by all terms and conditions, including all future amendments or modifications thereto. The Company reserves the right to amend and revise its policies at any time and from time to time. The Company will notify Employee of all such material changes. Employee agrees to read, comply with, and be bound by all such amendments, revisions and/or modifications.


  4.

Compensation and Fringe Benefits. The compensation and fringe benefits to be received by Employee in consideration of the services to be rendered by Employee are set forth in Exhibit “A” attached hereto. The provisions of Exhibit “A” are incorporated into this Agreement by reference as if fully set forth herein. The Company reserves the right to cancel or change the employee benefit plans and programs it offers to employees.

 

  5.

Effect of Termination on Compensation. Employee shall be entitled to the base salary earned by Employee prior to the date of termination, computed pro rata up to the date of termination. Employee shall not be entitled to any further salary or other compensation after the date of termination. Except as expressly modified in Exhibit A, on termination of this Agreement Employee shall not be deemed to have earned any incentive compensation not already declared and paid by the Company because such compensation is not for services rendered, and employment on the date of payment is an express requirement to be deemed to have earned any such compensation. Unless otherwise agreed-to in writing, Employee shall be obligated to return to the Company within ten (10) days after the termination of Employee’s employment any draws or other advance payments (of incentive compensation or otherwise) made to him during the annual period in which such termination occurs. Unless otherwise agreed-to in writing, interest shall accrue on the sum of any such advances at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum after said ten-day period.

 

  6.

Business Expenses. The Company will promptly reimburse Employee for reasonable business expenses incurred by Employee in promoting the business of the Company, including expenditures for entertainment, gifts and travel, provided that: (i) Each such expenditure is of a nature qualifying it as a proper deduction on the Federal and State income tax returns of the Company; and (ii) Employee furnishes to the Company, in accordance with the Company’s established policy, adequate records and other documentary evidence required by Federal and State statutes and regulations issued by the appropriate taxing authorities for the substantiation of such expenditures as income tax deductions.

 

  7.

Confidentiality and Restrictive Covenants.

 

  (i)

Confidentiality. Employee understands that based upon Employee’s senior position within the Company and for the Employee to perform the duties successfully, that it is necessary to provide Employee with access to the Company’s confidential and/or proprietary information (“Confidential Information” as further defined below).

 

  (a)

Employee shall not, at any time during or after the Term, reproduce or use for Employee’s own purposes or disclose to anyone else, for any reason or purpose, any Confidential Information, other than during the performance of services in Employee’s capacity as an employee of the Company.

  (d)

In accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act, Employee may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (A) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under

  (e)

Employee agrees not to disclose this Agreement to any third party, other than Employee’s attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, to members of Employee’s immediate family; provided, that the terms of this Paragraph shall not be construed to prohibit any disclosure required or allowed by law or in any proceeding to enforce the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Employee may disclose Employee’s obligations under this Agreement to a prospective employer.

 

  (f)

Return of Company Property, including Confidential Information. Upon the earlier of the Company’s request and the termination of employment, Employee shall immediately (within three (3) days of such request and/or termination) turn over to the Company all documents, papers and other material, including all copies thereof, in Employee’s possession or under Employee’s control, which may constitute, contain or be derived from Confidential Information, whether in written, digital or machine-readable form, together with all Company property, documents, notes and other work product which is connected with or derived from Employee’s employment with the Company.

  (v)

Acknowledgements.

 

  (a)

Employee acknowledges that the Company’s Confidential Information constitutes valuable, special and unique commercial and proprietary assets of the Company, is not public and is of a highly sensitive nature.

  (b)

Employee agrees that the existence of this right to seek injunctive and other equitable relief shall not limit any other rights or remedies that the Company may have in law or in equity including, without limitation, the right to monetary, compensatory and punitive damages.

 

  (d)

Should Employee violate any obligation imposed in this Agreement, Employee acknowledges and agree that the obligation will be extended by the length of time during which Employee is in breach of such obligation.

  (e)

If any Restrictive Covenant is determined not enforceable in the manner set forth herein, the Parties agree that it is the intention of the parties that such provision be modified by the court or arbitrator, as applicable, and should be enforceable to the maximum extent possible under applicable law.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

EXHIBIT A

This document is Exhibit A of the Employment Agreement (hereinafter called the “Agreement”) between Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the “Company”) and John David Parker (“Employee”). The provisions hereof are an integral part of said Agreement and are fully incorporated into the Agreement. The Compensation and Fringe Benefits to be paid to the Employee pursuant to this Employment Agreement (and as described below) are as of the Effective Date and will be reassessed annually by the Chief Executive Officer and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).

Compensation and Fringe Benefits of Employee.

The compensation and fringe benefits to be paid to Employee for 2022 are as follows:

 

  1.

Compensation and Special Conditions.

 

  i.

Salary. Employee shall be entitled to receive from the Company a base monthly salary of Thirty-Three Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Three and 33/100 Dollars ($33,333.33), payable in semi-monthly installments, pro-rated for less than a full year of service. In the event employment is terminated, the base salary amount will be paid on a pro-rata basis up to the date of termination in accordance with state law, with no salary due or earned after the date of termination.

 

  ii.

Bonus Potential: Employee will be eligible to receive an annual discretionary cash incentive bonus targeted at One Million Five Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,550,000) per calendar year for 2022 (with eligible bonus for 2022 paid by the target date of February 2023) and continuing annually thereafter. This bonus will be sixty percent (60%) based on Company financial and non-financial performance against goals, and forty percent (40%) based on personal goals that will be set with Employee’s input (%’s subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). It will be determined based on Employee’s performance review with the Chief Executive Officer and paid, if awarded, in February after the Compensation Committee meeting and approval process. If in any given year, the Company does not meet a minimum of fifty percent (50%) of its pre-tax income goal, no bonuses will be paid to Employee for that year, unless special considerations are determined by the Compensation Committee. The actual annual discretionary cash incentive bonus paid to Employee for any given year will be both objective and subjective in nature, will be heavily dependent on both the Company’s financial performance and Employees performance against his pre-established performance goals, and may end up being higher or lower than Employee’s annual discretionary cash incentive bonus target.

 

1


  iii.

Restricted Stock Units: Subject to approval by the Compensation Committee, as a senior leader of the Company, as set forth below contingent upon Employee’s continued employment and good standing, Employee will be eligible for long term incentive compensation in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). All RSUs require the approval of the Compensation Committee and shall be governed by the Company’s Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, except as modified and approved by the Compensation Committee.

 

  a.

LTP1 and LTP2 RSU Grant: Subject to approval of the Compensation Committee, and Employee being in good standing, beginning with any discretionary cash bonus paid in 2023, Employee will be eligible in the Company’s discretion to receive an RSU grant potential equivalent of up to fifty percent (50%) of Employee’s actual discretionary cash bonus earned and paid each year. Twenty-five percent (25%) will be based on the year’s overall results including the Company’s performance and Employee’s individual performance (“LTP1”) (LTP1 % subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). Twenty-five percent (25%) will be based on progress toward achieving the Company’s long-term goals and Employee’s contribution toward them (“LTP2”) (LTP2 % subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). These RSU grants will be part of the annual review process, with amounts determined by the Company, in its discretion, in February based on the prior calendar year. The RSU grants will be subject to a 5-year vesting schedule.

 

  2.

Performance-Based Compensation Clawback. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company will be entitled, pursuant to any policy it adopts to comply with the clawback rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or our exchange listing standards, to recover from Employee, regardless of fault, that portion of performance-based compensation which was based on financial information required to be reported under securities laws that would not have been paid in the three completed fiscal years preceding the year(s) in which an accounting restatement is required to be filed to correct a material error. Subject to applicable law, the Compensation Committee may seek to recoup such performance-based compensation by requiring Employee to repay such amount to the Company; by set-off; by reducing future compensation; or by such other means or combination of means as the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, determines to be appropriate.

 

  3.

Cellular Phone Allowance. Employee shall be entitled to a monthly cellular phone allowance in the amount of $150.00, reimbursed through regular and timely Expense Report submittal.

 

  4.

Employee will be eligible for the Company’s auto lease program in accordance with the Company’s applicable policies.

 

  5.

Insurance and Retirement. Employee shall be entitled to participate in insurance packages (medical, dental, and life) in accordance with the terms of Company

 

2


  Insurance Plan(s) available to eligible Company employees. Additionally, Employee shall be entitled to participate in a retirement savings plan in accordance with the terms of Company 401(K) Plan(s) available to eligible Company employees.

 

  6.

Paid Time Off (PTO): Marcus & Millichap PTO policy for Employee’s position does not provide for a specific amount of time off, but rather is open-ended and variable, depending on the demands and requirements of the office. The timing and amount of vacation Employee takes requires the express approval of Employee’s supervisor and does not accrue in any way.

Term of At-Will Employment. This Agreement shall be in effect commencing on August 4, 2022. The Company and Employee hereby agree that Employee’s employment with the Company is at-will.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

EXHIBIT A

This document is Exhibit A of the Employment Agreement (hereinafter called the “Agreement”) between Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the “Company”) and Richard Matricaria (“Employee”). The provisions hereof are an integral part of said Agreement and are fully incorporated into the Agreement. The Compensation and Fringe Benefits to be paid to the Employee pursuant to this Employment Agreement (and as described below) are as of the Effective Date and will be reassessed annually by the Chief Executive Officer and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).

Compensation and Fringe Benefits of Employee.

The compensation and fringe benefits to be paid to Employee for 2022 are as follows:

 

  1.

Compensation and Special Conditions.

 

  i.

Salary. Employee shall be entitled to receive from the Company a base monthly salary of Thirty-Three Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Three and 33/100 Dollars ($33,333.33), payable in semi-monthly installments, pro-rated for less than a full year of service. In the event employment is terminated, the base salary amount will be paid on a pro-rata basis up to the date of termination in accordance with state law, with no salary due or earned after the date of termination.

 

  ii.

Bonus Potential: Employee will be eligible to receive an annual discretionary cash incentive bonus targeted at One Million Five Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,550,000) per calendar year for 2022 (with eligible bonus for 2022 paid by the target date of February 2023) and continuing annually thereafter. This bonus will be sixty percent (60%) based on Company financial and non-financial performance against goals, and forty percent (40%) based on personal goals that will be set with Employee’s input (%’s subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). It will be determined based on Employee’s performance review with the Chief Executive Officer and paid, if awarded, in February after the Compensation Committee meeting and approval process. If in any given year, the Company does not meet a minimum of fifty percent (50%) of its pre-tax income goal, no bonuses will be paid to Employee for that year, unless special considerations are determined by the Compensation Committee. The actual annual discretionary cash incentive bonus paid to Employee for any given year will be both objective and subjective in nature, will be heavily dependent on both the Company’s financial performance and Employees performance against his pre-established performance goals, and may end up being higher or lower than Employee’s annual discretionary cash incentive bonus target.

 

1


  iii.

Restricted Stock Units: Subject to approval by the Compensation Committee, as a senior leader of the Company, as set forth below contingent upon Employee’s continued employment and good standing, Employee will be eligible for long term incentive compensation in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). All RSUs require the approval of the Compensation Committee and shall be governed by the Company’s Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, except as modified and approved by the Compensation Committee.

 

  a.

LTP1 and LTP2 RSU Grant: Subject to approval of the Compensation Committee, and Employee being in good standing, beginning with any discretionary cash bonus paid in 2023, Employee will be eligible in the Company’s discretion to receive an RSU grant potential equivalent of up to fifty percent (50%) of Employee’s actual discretionary cash bonus earned and paid each year. Twenty-five percent (25%) will be based on the year’s overall results including the Company’s performance and Employee’s individual performance (“LTP1”) (LTP1 % subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). Twenty-five percent (25%) will be based on progress toward achieving the Company’s long-term goals and Employee’s contribution toward them (“LTP2”) (LTP2 % subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). These RSU grants will be part of the annual review process, with amounts determined by the Company, in its discretion, in February based on the prior calendar year. The RSU grants will be subject to a 5-year vesting schedule.

 

  2.

Performance-Based Compensation Clawback. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company will be entitled, pursuant to any policy it adopts to comply with the clawback rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or our exchange listing standards, to recover from Employee, regardless of fault, that portion of performance-based compensation which was based on financial information required to be reported under securities laws that would not have been paid in the three completed fiscal years preceding the year(s) in which an accounting restatement is required to be filed to correct a material error. Subject to applicable law, the Compensation Committee may seek to recoup such performance-based compensation by requiring Employee to repay such amount to the Company; by set-off; by reducing future compensation; or by such other means or combination of means as the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, determines to be appropriate.

 

  3.

Cellular Phone Allowance. Employee shall be entitled to a monthly cellular phone allowance in the amount of $150.00, reimbursed through regular and timely Expense Report submittal.

 

  4.

Employee will be eligible for the Company’s auto lease program in accordance with the Company’s applicable policies.

 

  5.

Insurance and Retirement. Employee shall be entitled to participate in insurance packages (medical, dental, and life) in accordance with the terms of Company

 

2


  Insurance Plan(s) available to eligible Company employees. Additionally, Employee shall be entitled to participate in a retirement savings plan in accordance with the terms of Company 401(K) Plan(s) available to eligible Company employees.

 

  6.

Paid Time Off (PTO): Marcus & Millichap PTO policy for Employee’s position does not provide for a specific amount of time off, but rather is open-ended and variable, depending on the demands and requirements of the office. The timing and amount of vacation Employee takes requires the express approval of Employee’s supervisor and does not accrue in any way.
