Note 1 — Organization
The Necessity Retail REIT, Inc. (the “Company”), is an externally managed real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes (“REIT”) focusing on acquiring and managing a diversified portfolio of primarily service-oriented and traditional retail and distribution-related commercial real estate properties located primarily in the United States. The Company’s assets consist primarily of freestanding single-tenant properties that are net leased to “investment grade” and other creditworthy tenants and a portfolio of multi-tenant retail properties consisting primarily of power centers and lifestyle centers.
The Company has historically focused its acquisitions primarily on net leased, single-tenant service retail properties, defined as properties leased to tenants in the retail banking, restaurant, grocery, pharmacy, gas, convenience, fitness, and auto services sectors.
On December 17, 2021, the Company signed a purchase and sale agreement to acquire 79 multi-tenant retail centers and two single-tenant properties for a contract purchase price of $1.3 billion (the “CIM Portfolio Acquisition”). The Company determined that the CIM Portfolio Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition. The acquisition closed in multiple transactions from February 2022 through July, and the consideration included cash (including cash sourced from borrowings under the Credit Facility, as defined below), assumption of existing mortgage debt securing certain of the properties and the issuance of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock.
The Company closed on the properties of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition in multiple stages as follows:
•In the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company closed on the acquisition of 56 properties of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition for an aggregate contract purchase price of $801.1 million which was funded by $728.4 million in cash, including $378.0 million of borrowings under the Company’s Credit Facility, the assumption of $19.3 million of existing mortgage debt and the issuance of $50.0 million in value at issuance ($53.4 million of value subject to repurchase) of the Company’s Class A common stock to certain subsidiaries of the CIM Real Estate Finance Trust, Inc. (the “Sellers”), at its closing value on the respective closing dates on which the common stock was issued.
•In the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company closed on 24 additional properties from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition for an aggregate contract purchase price of $452.8 million in three closings. The acquisitions were funded with the assumption of $294.5 million of fixed-rate mortgage debt, $128.2 million of $135.0 million of borrowings under the Credit Facility, the application of $23.8 million of the Company’s $40.0 million deposit and the remainder with cash on hand. The assumed mortgages bear stated interest rates between 3.65% and 4.62% and mature between April 2023 and September 2033.
•The Company closed on the one remaining property from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition on July 7, 2022 for a contract purchase price of $71.1 million. The acquisition was funded with the assumption of $39.0 million of fixed-rate mortgage debt, the application of the remaining $16.2 million of the Company’s $40.0 million deposit, and the remainder with cash on hand (including $6.8 million of previous borrowings under the Credit Facility). The assumed mortgage bears a stated interest rate of 4.05% and matures in May 2024 (see Note 16 — Subsequent Events).
•The aggregate contract purchase prices above do not include contingent consideration relating to leasing activity at each respective acquired property for a six-month period subsequent to the respective closing dates of each acquired property. The Company paid $10.2 million and $13.3 million for such contingent consideration in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and three months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, the Company accrued $10.8 million of contingent consideration based on leases executed as of June 30, 2022. The Company paid $16.1 million in July 2022, which includes the accrual for $10.8 million, and additional amounts may be due for leases executed through January 2023 (six months following the acquisition date of the final property of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition).
The CIM Portfolio Acquisition represented a strategic shift away from a primary focus on single-tenant retail properties.
In addition, the Company acquired eight additional single-tenant properties in the three months ended June 30, 2022 for an aggregate contract purchase price of $17.5 million. The Company acquired 10 additional single-tenant properties and one additional multi-tenant retail property in the six months ended June 30, 2022 for an aggregate contract purchase price of $58.4 million.

The Company also reimburses these entities for certain expenses they incur in providing these services to the Company.
Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The information furnished includes all adjustments and accruals of a normal recurring nature, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year or any subsequent interim periods.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of, and for the year ended December 31, 2021, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022. Except for those required by new accounting pronouncements discussed below, there have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the OP. Except for the OP, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no interests in entities that were not wholly owned.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management makes significant estimates regarding revenue recognition, purchase price allocations to record investments in real estate, and fair value measurements, as applicable.
Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic
During the first quarter of 2020, the global COVID-19 pandemic that has spread around the world and to every state in the United States commenced. The pandemic has had and could continue to have an adverse impact on economic and market conditions, including a global economic slowdown, recession, or period of slow growth. The continued rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 on economic and market conditions. The Company believes the estimates and assumptions underlying its consolidated financial statements are reasonable and supportable based on the information available as of June 30, 2022, however uncertainty over the ultimate impact COVID-19 will have on the global economy generally, and the Company’s business in particular, makes any estimates and assumptions as of June 30, 2022 inherently less certain than they would be absent the current and potential impacts of COVID-19. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.

(Unaudited)
The financial stability and overall health of tenants is critical to the Company’s business. The negative effects that the global pandemic has had on the economy includes the closure or reduction in activity for many retail operations such as some of those operated by the Company’s tenants (e.g., restaurants). This has impacted the ability of some of the Company’s tenants to pay their monthly rent either temporarily or in the long-term. The Company experienced delays in rent collections in the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021. The Company has not experienced any material delays in the receipt of rental payments during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company took a proactive approach to achieve mutually agreeable solutions with its tenants and in some cases, in the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and throughout 2021, the Company executed several types of lease amendments. These agreements included deferrals and abatements and also may have included extensions to the term of the leases. The Company has not executed any COVID-19-related deferrals or abatements in the six months ended June 30, 2022.
For accounting purposes, in accordance with ASC 842: Leases, normally a company would be required to assess a lease modification to determine if the lease modification should be treated as a separate lease and if not, modification accounting would be applied which would require a company to reassess the classification of the lease (including leases for which the prior classification under ASC 840 was retained as part of the election to apply the package of practical expedients allowed upon the adoption of ASC 842, which does not apply to leases subsequently modified). However, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic in which many leases are being modified, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) provided relief that allowed companies to make a policy election as to whether they treat COVID-19 related lease amendments as a provision included in the pre-concession arrangement, and therefore, not a lease modification, or to treat the lease amendment as a modification. In order to be considered COVID-19 related, cash flows must be substantially the same or less than those prior to the concession. For COVID-19 relief qualified changes, there are two methods to potentially account for such rent deferrals or abatements under the relief, (1) as if the changes were originally contemplated in the lease contract or (2) as if the deferred payments are variable lease payments contained in the lease contract. For all other lease changes that did not qualify for FASB relief, the Company is required to apply modification accounting including assessing classification under ASC 842.
Some, but not all of the Company’s lease modifications qualify for the FASB relief. In accordance with the relief provisions, instead of treating these qualifying leases as modifications, the Company has elected to treat the modifications as if previously contained in the lease and recast rents receivable prospectively (if necessary). Under that accounting, for modifications that were deferrals only, there would be no impact on overall rental revenue and for any abatement amounts that reduced total rent to be received, the impact would be recognized ratably over the remaining life of the lease.
For leases not qualifying for this relief, the Company has applied modification accounting and determined that there were no changes in the current classification of its leases impacted by negotiations with its tenants.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenues, which are derived primarily from lease contracts, include rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of each lease reported on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. As of June 30, 2022, these leases had an average remaining lease term of approximately 7.2 years. Because many of the Company’s leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, straight-line basis accounting requires the Company to record a receivable for, and include in revenue from tenants, unbilled rents receivable that the Company will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. When the Company acquires a property, the acquisition date is considered to be the commencement date for purposes of this calculation. For new leases after acquisition, the commencement date is considered to be the date the tenant takes control of the space. For lease modifications, the commencement date is considered to be the date the lease modification is executed. The Company defers the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. Pursuant to certain of the Company’s lease agreements, tenants are required to reimburse the Company for certain property operating expenses, in addition to paying base rent, whereas under certain other lease agreements, the tenants are directly responsible for all operating costs of the respective properties. Under ASC 842, the Company elected to report combined lease and non-lease components in a single line “Revenue from tenants.” For comparative purposes, the Company also elected to reflect prior revenue and reimbursements reported under ASC 842 on a single line. For expenses paid directly by the tenant, under both ASC 842 and 840, the Company has reflected them on a net basis.

The following table presents future base rent payments on a cash basis due to the Company over the next five years and thereafter.

The Company owns certain properties with leases that include provisions for the tenant to pay contingent rental income based on a percent of the tenant’s sales upon the achievement of certain sales thresholds or other targets which may be monthly, quarterly or annual targets. As the lessor to the aforementioned leases, the Company defers the recognition of contingent rental income, until the specified target that triggered the contingent rental income is achieved, or until such sales upon which percentage rent is based are known. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 such amounts were $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 such amounts were $0.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent and unbilled rents receivable and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. Under the leasing standard adopted on January 1, 2019 (see the “Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements” section below), the Company is required to assess, based on credit risk only, if it is probable that the Company will collect virtually all of the lease payments at lease commencement date and it must continue to reassess collectability periodically thereafter based on new facts and circumstances affecting the credit risk of the tenant. Partial reserves, or the ability to assume partial recovery are not permitted. If the Company determines that it’s probable it will collect virtually all of the lease payments (rent and common area maintenance), the lease will continue to be accounted for on an accrual basis (i.e. straight-line). However, if the Company determines it’s not probable that it will collect virtually all of the lease payments, the lease will be accounted for on a cash basis and a full reserve would be recorded on previously accrued amounts in cases where it was subsequently concluded that collection was not probable. Cost recoveries from tenants are included in operating revenue from tenants beginning on January 1, 2019, in accordance with new accounting rules, on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) in the period the related costs are incurred, as applicable. In the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and throughout 2021 and 2022, this assessment included consideration of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the ability of the Company’s tenants to pay rents in accordance with their contracts. The assessment included all of the Company’s tenants with a focus on the Company’s multi-tenant retail properties which have been more negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic than the Company’s single-tenant properties.
In accordance with the lease accounting rules, the Company records uncollectable amounts as reductions in revenue from tenants. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, uncollectable amounts were $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2021 the Company recorded $0.5 million of uncollectable amounts during the period, not including a recovery of $0.8 million relating to a lease settlement fee from a tenant in one of the Company’s multi-tenant properties that terminated its lease. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, uncollectable amounts were $1.4 million, not including a recovery of $0.8 million relating to a lease settlement fee from a tenant in one of the Company’s multi-tenant properties that terminated its lease.

(Unaudited)
The Company entered into lease termination agreements at two and six of its single-tenant properties in the first quarter of 2022 and the fourth quarter of 2021, respectively. Since these leases have short-term remaining occupancy periods for the tenant, these lease termination agreements are treated as lease modifications, and their termination fee income is recognized over the remaining occupancy periods of the respective leases on a straight-line basis. In addition, the Company recognized and received $5.0 million in lease termination income from five vacant properties formerly leased to Truist Bank in the three months ended June 30, 2022. The Company recorded additional lease revenue of $5.7 million and $10.2 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, related to these agreements. As of June 30, 2022, the occupancy periods for these amended leases have all expired and the tenants have vacated.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded $0.8 million and $1.3 million of lease termination income, respectively.
Investments in Real Estate
Investments in real estate are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life of the asset. Costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. At the time an asset is acquired, the Company evaluates the inputs, processes and outputs of the asset acquired to determine if the transaction is a business combination or asset acquisition. If an acquisition qualifies as a business combination, the related transaction costs are recorded as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. If an acquisition qualifies as an asset acquisition, the related transaction costs are generally capitalized and subsequently amortized over the useful life of the acquired assets. See the Purchase Price Allocation section in this Note for a discussion of the initial accounting for investments in real estate.
Disposal of real estate investments that represent a strategic shift in operations that will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results are required to be presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations. No properties were presented as discontinued operations during the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Properties that are intended to be sold are to be designated as “held for sale” on the consolidated balance sheets at the lesser of carrying amount or fair value less estimated selling costs when they meet specific criteria to be presented as held for sale, most significantly that the sale is probable within one year. The Company evaluates the probability of sale based on specific facts including whether a sales agreement is in place and the buyer has made significant non-refundable deposits. Properties are no longer depreciated when they are classified as held for sale. As of June 30, 2022, five properties were considered held for sale, and as of December 31, 2021, the Company had one property classified as held for sale.
Purchase Price Allocation
In both a business combination and an asset acquisition, the Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on their respective fair values. Tangible assets may include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements on an as-if vacant basis. Intangible assets may include the value of in-place leases and above- and below- market leases and other identifiable assets or liabilities based on lease or property specific characteristics. In addition, any assumed mortgages receivable or payable and any assumed or issued non-controlling interests (in a business combination) are recorded at their estimated fair values. In allocating the fair value to assumed mortgages, amounts are recorded to debt premiums or discounts based on the present value of the estimated cash flows, which is calculated to account for either above or below-market interest rates. In a business combination, the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is either recorded as goodwill or as a bargain purchase gain. In an asset acquisition, the difference between the acquisition price (including capitalized transaction costs) and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is allocated to the non-current assets. All acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were asset acquisitions.
For acquired properties with leases classified as operating leases, the Company allocates the purchase price to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values. In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company utilizes a number of sources, including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other market data. The Company also considers information obtained about each property as a result of the Company’s pre-acquisition due diligence in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and intangible liabilities assumed.
Tangible assets include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures, and tenant improvements on an as-if vacant basis. The Company utilizes various estimates, processes and information to determine the as-if vacant property value. The Company estimates fair value using data from appraisals, comparable sales, discounted cash flow analysis and other methods. Fair value estimates are also made using significant assumptions such as capitalization rates, fair market lease rates, discount rates, and land values per square foot.

Identifiable intangible assets include amounts allocated to acquired leases for above- and below-market lease rates and the value of in-place leases. Factors considered in the analysis of the in-place lease intangibles include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up period for each property, taking into account current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at contract rates during the expected lease-up period, which typically ranges from to 24 months. The Company also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.
Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining initial term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.
Accounting for Leases
Lessor Accounting
In accordance with the lease accounting standard, all of the Company’s leases as lessor prior to adoption of ASC 842 were accounted for as operating leases and the Company continued to account for them as operating leases under the transition guidance. The Company evaluates new leases originated after the adoption date (by the Company or by a predecessor lessor/owner) pursuant to the new guidance where a lease for some or all of a building is classified by a lessor as a sales-type lease if the significant risks and rewards of ownership reside with the tenant. This situation is met if, among other things, there is an automatic transfer of title during the lease, a bargain purchase option, the non-cancelable lease term is for more than a major part of the remaining economic useful life of the asset (e.g., equal to or greater than 75%), if the present value of the minimum lease payments represents substantially all (e.g., equal to or greater than 90%) of the leased property’s fair value at lease inception, or if the asset is so specialized in nature that it provides no alternative use to the lessor (and therefore would not provide any future value to the lessor) after the lease term. Further, such new leases would be evaluated to consider whether they would be failed sale-leaseback transactions and accounted for as financing transactions by the lessor.
Generally, all the Company’s leases as lessor have qualified as operating leases. The Company has one land lease to a tenant that qualifies as a financing lease which was entered into during the three months ended June 30, 2022. The carrying value of this lease is $2.0 million as of June 30, 2022, and is included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had no leases as a lessor that were considered as sales-type or financing leases under sales leaseback rules.
As a lessor of real estate, the Company has elected, by class of underlying assets, to account for lease and non-lease components (such as tenant reimbursements of property operating expenses) as a single lease component as an operating lease because (a) the non-lease components have the same timing and pattern of transfer as the associated lease component; and (b) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. Additionally, only incremental direct leasing costs may be capitalized under the accounting guidance. Indirect leasing costs in connection with new or extended tenant leases, if any, are being expensed.
Lessee Accounting
For lessees, the accounting standard requires the application of a dual lease classification approach, classifying leases as either operating or finance leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, while lease expense for finance leases is recognized based on an effective interest method over the term of the lease. Also, lessees must recognize a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Further, certain transactions where at inception of the lease the buyer-lessor accounted for the transaction as a purchase of real estate and a new lease, may now be required to have symmetrical accounting to the seller-lessee if the transaction was not a qualified sale-leaseback and accounted for as a financing transaction. For additional information and disclosures related to the Company’s operating leases, see Note 10 — Commitments and Contingencies.
The Company is the lessee under certain land leases which were previously classified prior to adoption of lease accounting and will continue to be classified as operating leases under transition elections unless subsequently modified. These leases are reflected on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and the rent expense is reflected on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Gain on Sale of Real Estate Investments
Gains on sales of rental real estate are not considered sales to customers and are generally recognized pursuant to the provisions included in ASC 610-20, Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (“ASC 610-20”).
In accordance with ASC 845-10, Accounting for Non-Monetary Transactions, if a nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance, the cost of a nonmonetary asset acquired in exchange for another nonmonetary asset is the fair value of the asset surrendered to obtain it, and a gain or loss shall be recognized on the exchange.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
When circumstances indicate the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the property for impairment. This review is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, market and other applicable trends and residual value, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If an impairment exists, due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, the Company would recognize an impairment loss on its consolidated statements of operations to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used. For properties held for sale, the impairment loss recorded would equal the adjustment to fair value less estimated cost to dispose of the asset. These assessments have a direct impact on net income because recording an impairment loss results in an immediate negative adjustment to net earnings.
Shares Subject to Repurchase
The Company does not reflect shares subject to repurchase as part of its permanent equity if their repurchase is conditional on events that are outside of the Company’s control. Currently, the shares of Class A common stock issued in connection with the CIM Portfolio Acquisition are reflected as shares subject to repurchase outside of permanent equity. See Note 9 — Stockholder’s Equity for additional information.
Reportable Segments
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has determined that it has two reportable segments, with activities related to investing in single-tenant properties and multi-tenant properties.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings, 15 years for land improvements, five years for fixtures and improvements and the shorter of the useful life or the remaining lease term for tenant improvements and leasehold interests.
The value of in-place leases, exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases, is amortized to expense over the remaining periods of the respective leases.
The value of customer relationship intangibles, if any, is amortized to expense over the initial term of the lease and any renewal periods in the respective leases, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and customer relationship intangibles is charged to expense.
Assumed mortgage premiums or discounts are amortized as an increase or reduction to interest expense over the remaining terms of the respective mortgages.
Above and Below-Market Lease Amortization
Capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of revenue from tenants over the remaining terms of the respective leases and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to revenue from tenants over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed rate renewal options of the respective leases. If a tenant with a below-market rent renewal does not renew, any remaining unamortized amount will be taken into income at that time.
Capitalized above-market ground lease values are amortized as a reduction of property operating expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Capitalized below-market ground lease values are amortized as an increase to property operating expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases and expected below-market renewal option periods.
Upon termination of an above or below-market lease, any unamortized amounts would be recognized in the period of termination.

Equity-Based Compensation
The Company has stock-based plans under which its directors, officers and other employees of the Advisor or its affiliates who are involved in providing services to the Company are eligible to receive awards. Awards granted thereunder are accounted for under the guidance for employee share-based payments. The cost of services received in exchange for these stock awards is measured at the grant date fair value of the award and the expense for such an award is included in the equity-based compensation line item of the consolidated statements of operations and is recognized in accordance with the service period (i.e., vesting) required or when the requirements for exercise of the award have been met.
Effective at the listing of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Class A common stock”) on The Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) on July 19, 2018 (the “Listing Date”), the Company entered into a multi-year outperformance agreement with the Advisor (the “2018 OPP”) under which a new class of units of the limited partnership designated as “LTIP Units” (“LTIP Units”) were issued to the Advisor. These awards were market-based awards with a related required service period. In accordance with ASC 718, the LTIP Units were valued at their grant date and that value was reflected as a charge to earnings evenly over the service period. The cumulative expense was reflected as part of non-controlling interest in the Company’s balance sheets and statements of equity until the end of the service period. Following the end of the performance period under the 2018 OPP on July 19, 2021, the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company determined that none of the 4,496,796 of the LTIP Units subject to the 2018 OPP had been earned, and these LTIP Units were thus automatically forfeited. On that date, the Company reclassified amounts reflected in non-controlling interest for these LTIP Units to additional paid in capital on its consolidated balance sheets and statements of equity.
On May 4, 2021, the Company’s independent directors authorized the issuance of a new award of LTIP Units effective after the performance period under the 2018 OPP expired on July 19, 2021, with the number of LTIP Units to be issued to the Advisor to be equal to the quotient of $72.0 million divided by the ten-trading day trailing average closing stock price of the Company’s Class A common stock for the ten trading days up to and including July 19, 2021. On July 21, 2021, the Company entered into the multi-year outperformance agreement with the Advisor (the “2021 OPP”) pursuant to which the Advisor was granted an award of 8,528,885 LTIP Units, representing the quotient of $72.0 million divided by $8.4419. As a result, the LTIP Units issued under the 2021 OPP were reclassified as an equity award with the cumulative expense reflected as part of non-controlling interest in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and equity statements. For additional information, see Note 13 — Equity-Based Compensation.
In the event of a modification of any of the awards discussed above, any incremental increase in the value of the instrument measured on the date of the modification both before and after the modification, will result in an incremental amount to be reflected prospectively as a charge to earnings over the remaining service period. For additional information on these awards, see Note 13 — Equity-Based Compensation.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted as of January 1, 2021:
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Topic 470) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Topic 815). The new standard reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock, and amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity's own equity. The standard also amends and makes targeted improvements to the related earnings per share guidance. The Company adopted the new standard as required on January 1, 2021 and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Pending Adoption:
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). Topic 848 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in Topic 848 is optional and may be elected over the period from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 as reference rate reform activities occur. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to (i) the assertion that our hedged forecasted transactions remain probable and (ii) the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of our derivatives, which will be consistent with our past presentation. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections, as applicable, as additional changes in the market occur.

Deposits for Real Estate Investments
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $16.3 million and $41.9 million, respectively, in deposits for future acquisitions of real estate investments of which $16.3 million and $40.0 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 related to the deposit on the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, respectively.
Real Estate Held for Sale
When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company ceases depreciation and amortization of the identified assets and estimates the sales price, net of costs to sell, of those assets. If the carrying amount of the assets classified as held for sale exceeds the estimated net sales price, the Company records an impairment charge equal to the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the Company’s estimate of the net sales price of the assets. For additional information on impairment charges, see “Impairment Charges” section below.
As of June 30, 2022, there were five properties under contract to be disposed that have been classified as held for sale, which included three vacant single-tenant properties formerly leased to Truist Bank and two multi-tenant properties, one of which was recently acquired in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition.
As of December 31, 2021, there was one property, the Company’s Sanofi property, classified as held for sale. This property was disposed on January 6, 2022.
The sales of these properties and other properties sold during their respective periods do not represent a strategic shift in the Company’s operations or strategy. Accordingly, the operating results of these properties remain classified within continuing operations for all periods presented.

estate investments on the consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company sold 11 properties, including the Company’s Sanofi property which was held for sale as of December 31, 2021, for an aggregate contract price of $295.6 million. These property sales resulted in an aggregate gain of $67.0 million, which is reflected in gain on sale of real estate investments on the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company sold three properties for an aggregate contract price of $2.5 million, resulting in a nominal gain, which is reflected in gain on sale of real estate investments in the consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company sold five properties for an aggregate contract price of $3.1 million, resulting in a gain of $0.3 million, which is reflected in gain on sale of real estate investments in the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Real Estate Held for Use
When circumstances indicate the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the property for impairment. For the Company, the most common triggering events are (i) concerns regarding the tenant (i.e., credit or expirations) in the Company’s single-tenant properties, (ii) significant or sustained vacancy in the Company’s multi-tenant properties and (iii) changes to the Company’s expected holding period as a result of business decisions or non-recourse debt maturities. For all of its held for use properties, the Company had reconsidered the projected cash flows due to various performance indicators and, where appropriate, the Company evaluated the impact on its ability to recover the carrying value of such properties based on the expected cash flows over the intended holding period. See “Impairment Charges” below for discussion of specific charges taken.
If a triggering event for held for use single-tenant properties is identified, the Company uses either a market approach or an income approach to estimate the future cash flows expected to be generated.
The market approach involves evaluating comparable sales of properties in the same geographic region as the held for use properties in order to determine an estimated sale price. The Company makes certain assumptions including, among others, that the properties in the comparable sales used in the analysis share similar characteristics to the held for use properties, and that market and economic conditions at the time of any potential sales of these properties, such as discount rates; demand for space; competition for tenants; changes in market rental rates; and costs to operate the property, would be similar to those in the comparable sales analyzed.
Under the income approach, the Company evaluates the impact on its ability to recover the carrying value of such properties based on the expected cash flows over its intended holding period. The Company makes certain assumptions in this approach including, among others, the market and economic conditions, expected cash flow projections, intended holding periods and assessments of terminal values.
Where more than one possible scenario exists, the Company uses a probability weighted approach. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analysis may not be achieved, and actual losses or additional impairment may be realized in the future.
Impairment Charges
The Company recorded impairment charges of $59.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, $49.6 million of which related to a multi-tenant property located in Minnesota, $5.9 million of which related to five vacant single-tenant properties formerly leased to Truist Bank and $3.5 million of which related to a multi-tenant property acquired in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. The Company recorded impairment charges of $64.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, $49.6 million of which related to a multi-tenant property located in Minnesota, $8.0 million of which related to seven vacant single-tenant properties formerly leased to Truist Bank, $3.8 million of which related to one vacant single-tenant property formerly leased to United Healthcare and $3.5 million of which related to a multi-tenant property acquired in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. The United Healthcare property has been vacant since June 30, 2021 when the tenant did not renew its lease. The Company previously impaired the United Healthcare property by $26.9 million during the three months ended December 31, 2021. All of the impaired properties were impaired to adjust the properties’ carrying values to their fair values as determined by their respective purchase and sales agreements if under a contract to be disposed, or their estimated fair values if not under a contract to be disposed. Three vacant single-tenant properties formerly leased to Truist Bank and two multi-tenant properties, one of which was recently acquired in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, are under contract to be disposed and are classified as assets held for sale on our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2022.

(1)Calculated on a weighted-average basis for all mortgages outstanding as of June 30, 2022.
(2)Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, legal fees and other costs associated with obtaining financing. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financial transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that it is probable the financing will not close.
(3)Mortgage premiums or discounts are amortized as an increase or reduction to interest expense over the remaining terms of the respective mortgages.
(4)The Company assumed this fixed-rate mortgage when it acquired a property in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition during the six months ended June 30, 2022 with net discounts of $1.5 million.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had pledged $3.0 billion and $2.4 billion in real estate investments, respectively, at cost as collateral for its mortgage notes payable. This real estate is not available to satisfy other debts and obligations unless first satisfying the mortgage notes payable on the properties. In addition, as of June 30, 2022, $2.0 billion in real estate investments, at cost were included in the unencumbered asset pool comprising the borrowing base under the Company’s revolving unsecured corporate credit facility (see Note 5 — Credit Facility for more details). The asset pool comprising the borrowing base under the credit facility is only available to serve as collateral or satisfy other debts and obligations if it is first removed from the borrowing base under the credit facility.

Subsequent to June 30, 2022, the Company assumed $39.0 million of fixed-rate mortgage debt to partially fund the acquisition of the final property from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. The mortgage bears stated interest of 4.05% and matures in May 2024. See Note 16 — Subsequent Events for additional information.
In connection with refinancing certain properties, the Company may incur prepayment penalties relating to its prior debt obligations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, no such amounts were incurred. These prepayment penalties, when incurred, are included in acquisition, transaction, and other costs in the consolidated statements of operations.

(2)The Senior Notes will mature on September 30, 2028. See Note 6 — Senior Notes, Net for additional information.
The Company’s mortgage notes payable agreements require compliance with certain property-level financial covenants including debt service coverage ratios. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all operating and financial covenants under these agreements.
Note 5 — Credit Facility
On April 26, 2018, the Company repaid its prior revolving unsecured corporate credit facility in full and entered into a credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (“BMO Bank”) as administrative agent, Citizens Bank, N.A. and SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc., as joint lead arrangers, and the other lenders from time to time party thereto. On October 1, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of the Credit Facility with the parties thereto. Also, upon the closing of the Senior Notes (as defined in Note 6 — Senior Notes, Net) on October 7, 2021, the Company used a portion of the proceeds to repay all outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility at the time. The aggregate total commitments after the amendment and restatement of the Credit Facility were increased from $540.0 million to $815.0 million including a $50.0 million sublimit for letters of credit and a $55.0 million sublimit for swingline loans. The Credit Facility includes an uncommitted “accordion feature” permitting the Company, subject to certain exceptions, to increase the commitments under the Credit Facility by up to an additional $435.0 million, subject to obtaining commitments from new lenders or additional commitments from participating lenders and certain customary conditions. The Credit Facility matures on April 1, 2026, subject to the Company’s right, subject to customary conditions, to extend the maturity date by up to two additional six-month terms. Borrowings under the Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to customary LIBOR breakage costs.
The Credit Facility is supported by a pool of eligible unencumbered properties that are owned by the subsidiaries of the OP that serve as Guarantors. The Company may add or remove properties to or from this pool so long as at any time there are at least 15 eligible unencumbered properties with a value of at least $300.0 million, among other things. The amount available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility depends on the amount outstanding thereunder relative to the aggregate commitments; however, the amount the Company may borrow is limited by the financial maintenance covenants described below.
21
THE NECESSITY RETAIL REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
The amount available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility is based on the maximum amount of total unsecured indebtedness that could be incurred while maintaining a minimum unsecured interest coverage ratio with respect to the borrowing base, in each case, as of the determination date.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company borrowed $513.0 million to fund a portion of the 80 properties acquired from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, $25.0 million of which the Company repaid during the six months ended June 30, 2022 using proceeds from its dispositions. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had a total borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility of $526.6 million based on the value of the borrowing base under the Credit Facility, and of this amount, $488.0 million was outstanding under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2022 and $38.6 million remained available for future borrowings.
The Credit Facility currently requires payments of interest only prior to maturity. Following the amendment and restatement of the Credit Facility, borrowings bear interest at either (i) the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Facility) plus an applicable spread ranging from 0.45% to 1.05%, or (ii) LIBOR plus an applicable spread ranging from 1.45% to 2.05%, in each case depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. These spreads reflect a reduction from the previously applicable spreads. In addition, pursuant to the amendment to the Credit Facility, (i) if the Company or the OP achieves an investment grade credit rating, the OP can elect for the spread to be based on the credit rating of the Company or the OP, and (ii) the prior “floor” on LIBOR of 0.25% was removed.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the weighted-average interest rate under the Credit Facility was 3.43% and 2.79%, respectively.
In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. As a result, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred alternative to LIBOR in derivatives and other financial contracts. On March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority confirmed a partial extension of this deadline, announcing that it will cease the publication of the one-week and two-month USD LIBOR settings immediately following December 31, 2021. The remaining USD LIBOR settings will continue to be published through June 30, 2023. The Company is not able to predict when there will be sufficient liquidity in the SOFR market. The Company is monitoring and evaluating the risks related to changes in LIBOR availability, which include potential changes in interest paid on debt and amounts received and paid on interest rate swaps. In addition, the value of debt or derivative instruments tied to LIBOR will also be impacted as LIBOR is limited and discontinued and contracts must be transitioned to a new alternative rate. While the Company expects LIBOR to be available in substantially its current form until at least June 30, 2023, it is possible that LIBOR will become unavailable prior to that time. This could occur, for example, if a sufficient number of banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR administrator. The Credit Facility contains language governing the establishment of a replacement benchmark index to serve as an alternative to LIBOR, when necessary.
Any subsidiary owning property that is included in the borrowing base is required to guarantee the OP’s obligations under the Credit Facility. This includes any wholly-owned domestic subsidiary of the OP that directly or indirectly owns or leases a real estate asset added to the pool of eligible unencumbered properties. For any Guarantor subsidiary of the OP, this guarantee will be released if the Company or the OP achieves an investment grade credit rating, but will again be required (i) if either the Company or the OP loses its investment grade credit rating, or (ii) with respect to any Guarantor subsidiary of the OP, for so long as the subsidiary is the primary obligor under or provides a guaranty to any holder of unsecured indebtedness.
The Credit Facility contains various customary operating covenants, including covenants restricting, among other things, restricted payments (including dividends and share repurchases), the incurrence of liens, the types of investments the Company may make, fundamental changes, agreements with affiliates and changes in nature of business. The amended and restated Credit Facility also (i) continues to have financial maintenance covenants with respect to maximum consolidated leverage, maximum consolidated secured leverage, minimum fixed charge coverage, and minimum net worth, (ii) amended the maximum recourse debt to total asset value covenant to refer instead to secured recourse debt, and (iii) added new financial maintenance covenants with respect to maximum consolidated unsecured leverage and adjusted net operating income for the pool of eligible unencumbered properties required to be maintained under the Credit Facility to debt service paid on unsecured indebtedness.
Under the Credit Facility, subject to certain exceptions, the Company is not permitted to pay distributions, including cash dividends on equity securities (including the Company’s 7.50% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”) and 7.375% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series C Preferred Stock”)) in an aggregate amount exceeding 95% of AFFO (as defined in the

Credit Facility) for any look-back period of four consecutive fiscal quarters without seeking consent from the lenders under the Credit Facility. However, the Credit Facility also permits the Company to pay distributions in an aggregate amount not exceeding 105% of AFFO for any applicable period if, as of the last day of the period, the Company was able to satisfy a maximum leverage ratio after giving effect to the payments and also has amounts available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility of not less than $60.0 million. Moreover, if applicable, during the continuance of an event of default under the Credit Facility, the Company could not pay dividends or other distributions in excess of the amount necessary for the Company to maintain its status as a REIT.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the operating and financial covenants under the Credit Facility.
Note 6 — Senior Notes, Net
On October 7, 2021, the Company and the OP issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Senior Notes”). The Company, the OP and their subsidiaries that guarantee the Senior Notes entered into an indenture with U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 the amount of the Senior Notes on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets totaled $491.7 million and $491.0 million, respectively, which is net of $8.3 million and $9.0 million of deferred financing costs, respectively.
The Senior Notes, which were issued at par, will mature on September 30, 2028 and accrue interest at a rate of 4.500% per year. Interest on the Senior Notes, which began to accrue on October 7, 2021, is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 30 and September 30 of each year. The Senior Notes do not require any principal payments prior to maturity. The first semi-annual interest payment was made on March 30, 2022.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Indenture governing the Senior Notes. Additional information on the terms of the Senior Notes can be found in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022.
Note 7 — Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Hierarchy
GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred sources of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.
The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. However, the Company expects that changes in classifications between levels will be rare.
A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets and liabilities. The Company’s policy with respect to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize transfers into and out of each level as of the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Derivative Instruments
23
THE NECESSITY RETAIL REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
The Company’s derivative instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with this derivative utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparty. However, as of June 30, 2022, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the Company’s derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivatives valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The valuation of derivative instruments is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated into the fair values to account for the Company’s potential nonperformance risk and the performance risk of the counterparties.
Real Estate Investments Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
Real Estate Investments - Held for Sale
The Company has had impaired real estate investments classified as held for sale (see Note 3 — Real Estate Investments for additional information on impairment charges recorded by the Company). There were four impaired real estate investments held for sale as of June 30, 2022 and there were no impaired real estate investments held for sale as of December 31, 2021. The carrying value of impaired real estate investments held for sale on the consolidated balance sheets represents their estimated fair value less cost to sell. Impaired real estate investments held for sale are generally classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Real Estate Investments - Held for Use
The Company has had impaired real estate investments classified as held for use at the time of impairment (see Note 3 — Real Estate Investments for additional information on impairment charges recorded by the Company). The carrying value of these held for use impaired real estate investments held for use on the consolidated balance sheets represents their estimated fair value at the time of impairment. The Company primarily uses a market approach to estimate the future cash flows expected to be generated. Impaired real estate investments which are held for use are generally classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Financial Instruments that are not Reported at Fair Value
The carrying value of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses and dividends payable approximates their fair value due to their short-term nature.
As of June 30, 2022, the carrying value of advances to the Company under the Credit Facility was $488.0 million and as of December 31, 2021 there were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility. The fair value of the advances to the Company under the Credit Facility was $486.8 million as of June 30, 2022, due to the widening of the credit spreads during the period.
The carrying values of the Company’s mortgage notes payable as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $1.8 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, and the fair values were $1.7 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively. The fair value of gross mortgage notes payable is based on estimates of market interest rates. This approach relies on unobservable inputs and therefore is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s Senior Notes had a gross carrying value of $500.0 million in each period and fair values of $395.0 million and $504.4 million, respectively.
Note 8 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company may use derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps, options, floors and other interest rate derivative contracts, to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. The principal objective of such arrangements is to minimize the risks and costs associated with the Company’s operating and financial structure as well as to hedge specific anticipated transactions. The Company does not intend to utilize derivatives for
24
THE NECESSITY RETAIL REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
speculative or other purposes other than interest rate risk management. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements are not able to perform under the agreements. To mitigate this risk, the Company only enters into derivative financial instruments with counterparties with high credit ratings and with major financial institutions with which the Company and its related parties may also have other financial relationships. The Company does not anticipate that any of the counterparties will fail to meet their obligations.
The Company entered into an interest rate swap on September 1, 2020 in a notional amount of $125.0 million. The interest rate swap became effective on October 13, 2020, and fixed the interest rate on a mortgage loan that was refinanced on September 4, 2020. The interest rate swap fixed interest on the mortgage at an effective interest rate of 3.27% and was to expire in July 2026. This interest rate swap was terminated in the fourth quarter of 2021 when the mortgage loan was repaid and the Company received $2.1 million as a result of the termination. Following the termination, the Company reclassified approximately $2.1 million from AOCI (as defined below) as a reduction to interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations in the fourth quarter of 2021. As a result, the Company had no derivative financial instruments outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 the Company did not have any derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, however, the Company did have derivative activity (see table below) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives have historically been to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCI”) and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt.
The table below details the location in the financial statements of the gain or loss recognized on interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

Non-Designated Derivatives
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any outstanding derivatives that were not designated as hedges under qualifying hedging relationships.
These derivatives have historically been used to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements, but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements to be classified as hedging instruments. These derivatives also include other instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated in hedging relationships are recorded directly in earnings.
The Company recorded an immaterial loss on non-designated hedging relationships during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The Company did not record any gains or losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 since the Company did not have any derivatives that were not designated as hedges in qualifying hedging relationships.
Embedded Derivative
The purchase and sale agreement for the CIM Portfolio Acquisition (see Note 3 — Real Estate Investments for more information) included the planned issuance of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock or Class A Units in the OP of
25
THE NECESSITY RETAIL REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
$50.0 million in value at issuance ($53.4 million of value subject to repurchase). The Company ultimately issued 6,450,107 shares of Class A common stock to the Seller in the first and second closings of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
The number of shares issued at the applicable closing were based on the value of the shares or units that may be issued at such closing divided by the per-share volume weighted average price of the Company’s Class A common stock measured over a five-day consecutive trading period immediately preceding (but not including) the date on which written notice for the closing was delivered, indicating the seller’s election to receive either shares or units, to the OP (the price of which was to be limited by a 7.5% collar in either direction from the per share volume weighted-average price of the Company’s Class A common stock measured over a ten-day consecutive trading period immediately preceding (but not including) the effective date of the purchase and sale agreement), which was $8.34 per share. The Company had concluded that as of December 31, 2021, this arrangement constituted an embedded derivative which required separate accounting. The initial value of the embedded derivative was an asset upon the signing of the purchase and sale agreement of $1.7 million, and was a liability of $2.3 million as of December 31, 2021. The shares were issued in two closings in the three months ending March 31, 2022 at contract prices within the collar. Accordingly, the value of the embedded derivative was considered to be zero immediately prior to closing. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company reduced the prior liability at December 31, 2021 to zero at closing and recorded a gain on non-designated derivatives of $2.3 million in the consolidated statements of operations.
Note 9 — Mezzanine Equity and Total Equity
Mezzanine Equity
Shares Subject to Repurchase
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, as part of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, the Company issued a total of 6,450,107 shares of its Class A common stock to the Seller which had a value of $50.0 million, for accounting purposes, using the stock prices at the respective dates of issuance. The Company was required to register the resale of these shares, which it did in April 2022, and is required to subsequently maintain the effectiveness of that resale registration or the Company could be required to repurchase the securities for $53.4 million. If the Seller sells these securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or if the resale of the securities otherwise becomes qualified for exemption from registration under federal securities law, their repurchase rights terminate. If not yet sold by the Seller, the resale of all of these shares will become qualified for exemption from registration under federal securities law on August 25, 2022 (six months from the date of the final purchase) and the repurchase right would then terminate. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022, since the ability to maintain the resale registration is not solely in the Company’s control, the securities are reflected as shares subject to repurchase outside of permanent equity until the repurchase rights terminate. Upon termination of the repurchase right, the value of these shares will be reclassified into permanent equity.
Total Equity
Common Stock
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had 133.3 million and 123.8 million shares (including the shares subject to repurchase discussed above), respectively, of Class A common stock outstanding including restricted shares of Class A common stock (“restricted shares”) and excluding LTIP Units. LTIP Units may ultimately be convertible into shares of Class A common stock in the future if certain conditions are met.
As more fully discussed in Note 8 – Derivative Financial Instruments, the Company issued 6,450,107 shares aggregating to $53.4 million in Class A Common Stock in connection with the CIM Portfolio Acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan
Effective on the Listing Date, an amendment and restatement of the then effective distribution reinvestment plan approved by the Company’s board of directors became effective (the “DRIP”). The DRIP allows stockholders who have elected to participate in the DRIP to have dividends payable with respect to all or a portion of their shares of Class A common stock reinvested in additional shares of Class A common stock. Shares issued pursuant to the DRIP represent shares that are, at the election of the Company, either (i) acquired directly from the Company, which would issue new shares, at a price based on the average of the high and low sales prices of Class A common stock on Nasdaq on the date of reinvestment, or (ii) acquired through open market purchases by the plan administrator at a price based on the weighted-average of the actual prices paid for all of the shares of Class A common stock purchased by the plan administrator with all participants’ reinvested dividends for the related quarter, less a per share processing fee.

Stockholder Rights Plan
In April 2020, the Company announced that its board of directors approved a stockholder rights plan (the “Plan”) to protect the long-term interests of the Company. The Company adopted the Plan due to the substantial volatility in the trading of the Company’s Class A common stock that has resulted from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The adoption of the Plan is intended to allow the Company to realize the long-term value of the Company’s assets by protecting the Company from the actions of third parties that the Company’s board of directors determines are not in the best interest of the Company. The Company’s Plan is designed to reduce the likelihood that any person or group (including a group of persons that are acting in concert with each other) would gain control of the Company through open market accumulation of stock by imposing significant penalties upon any person or group that acquires 4.9% or more of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock without the approval of the Company’s board of directors. In connection with the adoption of the Plan, the Company’s board of directors authorized a dividend of one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of Class A common stock to stockholders of record on April 23, 2020 to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of Series B Preferred Stock for an exercise price of $35.00 per one-thousandth of a share, once the rights become exercisable, subject to adjustment as provided in the related rights agreement. By the terms of the Plan, the rights will initially trade with Class A common stock and will generally only become exercisable on the 10th business day after the Company’s board of directors becomes aware that a person or entity has become the owner of 4.9% or more of the shares of Class A common stock or the commencement of a tender or exchange offer which would result in the offeror becoming an owner of 4.9% or more of the Class A common stock. In February 2021, the expiration date of these rights was extended to April 12, 2024 unless earlier exercised, exchanged, amended, redeemed or terminated.
Non-Controlling Interest
Non-controlling interests resulted from the issuance of OP Units in conjunction with the merger with American Realty Capital-Retail Centers of America, Inc. (“RCA”) in February 2017 (the “Merger”) and were recognized at fair value as of the effective time of the Merger on February 16, 2017. In addition, under the 2021 OPP, the OP issued LTIP Units, which are also reflected as part of non-controlling interest as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. See Note 13 — Equity Based Compensation - Multi-Year Outperformance Agreement for more information regarding the LTIP Units and related accounting.
On May 4, 2021, the Company’s independent directors, acting as a group, authorized the issuance of a new award of LTIP Units pursuant to the 2021 OPP to the Advisor after the performance period under the 2018 OPP expired on July 19, 2021. Accordingly, these new LTIP Units are reflected in non-controlling interest on the Company’s balance sheet or statement of equity as of June 30, 2022. For additional information, see Note 13 — Equity-Based Compensation relating to the accounting impacts of (i) the end of the performance period under the 2018 OPP and the forfeiture of all LTIP Units awarded thereunder, and (ii) the beginning of the performance period under the 2021 OPP and the grant of an award of LTIP Units thereunder.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, non-controlling interest was comprised of the following components:
| (In thousands) | June 30, 2022 | December 31, 2021 | |||||||||
| Non-controlling interest attributable to LTIP Units | $ | 14,720 | $ | 8,368 | |||||||
| Non-controlling interest attributable to Class A Units | 2,123 | 2,056 | |||||||||
| Total non-controlling interest | $ | 16,843 | $ | 10,424 | |||||||
Following the end of the performance period under the 2018 OPP on July 19, 2021, the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company determined that none of the 4,496,796 of the LTIP Units subject to the 2018 OPP had been earned, and these LTIP Units were thus automatically forfeited. On that date, the Company reclassified $34.8 million of amounts reflected in non-controlling interest for these LTIP Units to additional paid in capital on its consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of changes in equity.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s balance sheet includes operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities of $17.9 million and $19.2 million, respectively. In determining operating ROU assets and lease liabilities for the Company’s existing operating leases upon the initial adoption of the new lease guidance in 2019, as well as for new operating leases entered into after adoption, the Company estimated an appropriate incremental borrowing rate on a fully-collateralized basis for the terms of the leases. Because the terms of the Company’s ground leases are significantly longer than the terms of borrowings available to the Company on a fully-collateralized basis, the Company’s estimate of this rate required significant judgment. The Company did not enter into any additional ground leases during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
The Company’s operating ground leases have a weighted-average remaining lease term, including assumed renewals, of 26.6 years and a weighted-average discount rate of 7.5% as of June 30, 2022. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company paid cash of $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively, for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities and recorded expense of $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively.
The lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis in property operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Litigation and Regulatory Matters
On February 8, 2018, Carolyn St. Clair-Hibbard, a purported stockholder of the Company, filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company, AR Global, the Advisor, and both individuals who previously served as the Company’s chief executive officer and chair of the board of directors (the “Former Chairmen”). On February 23, 2018, the complaint was amended to, among other things, assert some claims on the plaintiff’s own behalf and other claims on behalf of herself and other similarly situated stockholders of the Company as a class. On April 26, 2018, defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint. On May 25, 2018, the plaintiff filed a second amended complaint. The second amended complaint alleged that the proxy materials used to solicit stockholder approval of the Merger at the Company’s 2017 annual meeting were materially incomplete and misleading. The complaint asserted violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act against the Company, as well as control person liability against the Advisor, AR Global, and the Former Chairmen under 20(a). It also asserted state law claims for breach of fiduciary duty against the Advisor, and claims for aiding and abetting such breaches, of fiduciary duty against the Advisor, AR Global and the Former Chairmen. The complaint sought unspecified damages, rescission of the Company’s advisory agreement with the Advisor (the “Advisory Agreement”) (or severable portions thereof) which became effective when the Merger became effective, and a declaratory judgment that certain provisions of the Advisory Agreement were void. The Company believed the second amended complaint was without merit and defended it vigorously. On June 22, 2018, the defendants moved to dismiss the second amended complaint. On August 1, 2018, the plaintiff filed an opposition to the defendants’ motions to dismiss. The defendants filed reply papers on August 22, 2018, and oral argument was held on September 26, 2018. On September 23, 2019, the Court granted defendants’ motions and dismissed the complaint with prejudice, and the plaintiff appealed. On May 5, 2020, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed the lower court’s dismissal of the complaint.
On October 26, 2018, Terry Hibbard, a purported stockholder of the Company, filed a putative class action complaint in New York State Supreme Court, New York County, against the Company, AR Global, the Advisor, the Former Chairmen, the Company’s chief financial officer at the time of the Merger and each of the Company’s directors immediately prior to the

Merger. All of the directors immediately prior to the Merger, except for David Gong, currently serve as directors of the Company. The complaint alleged that the registration statement pursuant to which RCA shareholders acquired shares of the Company during the Merger contained materially incomplete and misleading information. The complaint asserted violations of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) against the Company’s chief financial officer at the time of the Merger and each of the Company’s directors immediately prior to the Merger, violations of Section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act against the Company and the Company’s current chief executive officer, president and chair of the board of directors, and control person liability against the Advisor, AR Global and the Former Chairmen under Section 15 of the Securities Act. The complaint sought unspecified damages and rescission of the Company’s sale of stock pursuant to the registration statement.
On March 6, 2019, Susan Bracken, Michael P. Miller and Jamie Beckett, purported stockholders of the Company, filed a putative class action complaint in New York State Supreme Court, New York County, on behalf of themselves and others who purchased shares of common stock through the Company’s then effective distribution reinvestment plan, against the Company, AR Global, the Advisor, the Former Chairmen, the Company’s chief financial officer at the time of the Merger and each of the Company’s directors immediately prior to the Merger. The complaint alleged that the April and December 2016 registration statements pursuant to which class members purchased shares contained materially incomplete and misleading information. The complaint asserted violations of Section 11 of the Securities Act against the Company, the Company’s chief financial officer at the time of the Merger and each of the Company’s directors immediately prior to the Merger, violations of Section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act against the Company and the Company’s current chief executive officer, president and chair of the board of directors, and control person liability against the Advisor, AR Global and the Former Chairmen under Section 15 of the Securities Act. The complaint sought unspecified damages and either rescission of the Company’s sale of stock or rescissory damages.
On April 30, 2019, Lynda Callaway, a purported stockholder of the Company, filed a putative class action complaint in New York State Supreme Court, New York County, against the Company, AR Global, the Advisor, the Former Chairmen, the Company’s chief financial officer at the time of the Merger and each of the Company’s directors immediately prior to the Merger. The complaint alleged that the registration statement pursuant to which the plaintiff and other class members acquired shares of the Company during the Merger contained materially incomplete and misleading information. The complaint asserted violations of Section 11 of the Securities Act against the Company, the Company’s chief financial officer at the time of the Merger and each of the Company’s directors immediately prior to the Merger, violations of Section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act against the Company and the Company’s current chief executive officer, president and chair of the board of directors, and control person liability under Section 15 of the Securities Act against the Advisor, AR Global, and the Former Chairmen. The complaint sought unspecified damages and rescission of the Company’s sale of stock pursuant to the registration statement.
On July 11, 2019, the New York State Supreme Court issued an order consolidating the three above-mentioned cases: Terry Hibbard, Bracken, and Callaway (the “Consolidated Cases”). The Court also stayed the Consolidated Cases pending a decision on the motions to dismiss in the St. Clair-Hibbard litigation pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. Following the federal court’s decision on the St. Clair-Hibbard motions to dismiss, on October 31, 2019 the plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated class action complaint in the Consolidated Cases seeking substantially similar remedies from the same defendants. The Company moved to dismiss the amended consolidated complaint on December 16, 2019. After the parties completed briefing on this motion, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit issued its decision affirming dismissal of the St. Clair-Hibbard action. The plaintiffs moved to amend their complaint, purportedly to limit it to claims still viable in spite of the results of the federal action. The proposed second amended complaint no longer contains direct claims against the Company. Instead, the plaintiffs seek to pursue state law claims derivatively against the Advisor, AR Global, the Company’s initial chief executive officer and chair of the board of directors, the Company’s current directors and David Gong, a former director, with the Company as a nominal defendant. On December 20, 2021, the Court denied the plaintiffs’ motion to amend and dismissed the litigation. On January 26, 2022, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal from the Court’s decision. That appeal is pending.
There are no other material legal or regulatory proceedings pending or known to be contemplated against the Company.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 the Company did not incur any litigation costs related to the above matters. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred litigation costs of approximately $4,000 and $30,000, respectively. A portion of these litigation costs were subject to a claim for reimbursement under the insurance policies maintained by the Company (the “Policies”). There were no such reimbursements recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021. The Policies were subject to other claims that had priority over the Company’s claim for reimbursement, and have been exhausted.

Summary of Advisory Agreement
The initial term of the Advisory Agreement expires on April 29, 2035. This term is automatically renewed for successive 20-year terms upon expiration unless the Advisory Agreement is terminated (1) in accordance with an Internalization (as defined below), (2) by the Company or the Advisor with cause, without penalty, with 60 days’ notice, (3) by the Advisor for (a) a failure to obtain a satisfactory agreement for any successor to the Company to assume and agree to perform obligations under the Advisory Agreement or (b) any material breach of the Advisory Agreement of any nature whatsoever by the Company, or (4) by the Advisor in connection with a change of control of the Company. Upon the termination of the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor will be entitled to receive from the Company all amounts due to the Advisor, as well as the then-present fair market value of the Advisor’s interest in the Company.
The Advisory Agreement grants the Company the right to internalize the services provided under the Advisory Agreement (“Internalization”) and to terminate the Advisory Agreement pursuant to a notice received by the Advisor as long as (i) more than 67% of the Company’s independent directors have approved the Internalization; and (ii) the Company pays the Advisor an Internalization fee equal to (1) $15.0 million plus (2) either (x) if the Internalization occurs on or before December 31, 2028, the Subject Fees (as defined below) multiplied by 4.5 or (y) if the Internalization occurs on or after January 1, 2029, the Subject Fees multiplied by 3.5 plus (3) 1.0% multiplied by (x) the purchase price of properties or other investments acquired after the end of the fiscal quarter in which the notice of Internalization is received by the Advisor and prior to the Internalization and (y) without duplication, the cumulative net proceeds of any equity raised by the Company during the period following the end of the fiscal quarter in which notice is received and the Internalization. The “Subject Fees” are equal to (i) the product of four multiplied by the sum of (A) the actual base management fee (including both the fixed and variable portion thereof) plus (B) the actual variable management fee, in each of clauses (A) and (B), payable for the fiscal quarter in which the notice of Internalization is received by the Advisor, plus, (ii) without duplication, the annual increase in the base management fee resulting from the cumulative net proceeds of any equity raised in respect of the fiscal quarter in which the notice of Internalization is received by the Advisor. Up to 10% of the Internalization fee may be payable in shares of Class A common stock subject to certain conditions.
2020 Advisory Agreement Amendment
On March 30, 2020, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Advisory Agreement, by and among the OP and the Advisor. Amendment No. 3 revised the section of the Advisory Agreement to temporarily lower the quarterly thresholds of Core Earnings Per Adjusted Share (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) the Company must reach on a quarterly basis for the Advisor to receive the Variable Management Fee (as defined in the Advisory Agreement). For additional information, see the “Asset Management Fees and Variable Management/Incentive Fees” section below.
2021 Advisory Agreement Amendment
On January 13, 2021, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 to the Advisory Agreement, by and among the OP and the Advisor, to extend the expiration of the modified quarterly thresholds established by Amendment No. 3 to the Advisory Agreement. The Company had to reach these thresholds on a quarterly basis for the Advisor to receive the variable management fee from the end of the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2020 to the end of the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2021. For additional information, see the “Asset Management Fees and Variable Management/Incentive Fees” section below.
In-Sourced Expenses
The Advisor is reimbursed for costs it incurs in providing investment-related services, or “in-sourced expenses.” These in-sourced expenses may not exceed 0.5% of the contract purchase price of each acquired property or 0.5% of the amount advanced for a loan or other investment. Additionally, the Company has paid and may continue to pay third party acquisition expenses. The aggregate amount of acquisition expenses, including in-sourced expenses, may not exceed 4.5% of the contract

(Unaudited)
purchase price of the Company’s portfolio or 4.5% of the amount advanced for all loans or other investments and this threshold has not been exceeded through June 30, 2022.
The Company incurred $0.2 million and $0.4 million of acquisition expenses and related cost reimbursements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and $5,000 and $19,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.
Asset Management Fees and Incentive Variable Management Fees
The Company pays the Advisor a base management fee, which includes a fixed and variable portion, and, if certain performance thresholds are met, an incentive variable management fee. Under the Advisory Agreement, the fixed portion of the base management fee is $24.0 million annually. If the Company acquires (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise) any other REIT, that is advised by an entity that is wholly-owned, directly or indirectly, by AR Global, other than any joint venture, (a “Specified Transaction”), the fixed portion of the base management fee will be increased by an amount equal to the consideration paid for the acquired company’s equity multiplied by 0.0031 for the first year following the Specified Transaction, 0.0047 for the second year and 0.0062 thereafter. The variable portion of the base management fee is a monthly fee equal to one-twelfth of 1.25% of the cumulative net proceeds of any equity raised by the Company and its subsidiaries from and after the initial effective date of the Advisory Agreement on February 16, 2017. Base management fees, including the variable portion, are included in asset management fees to related party on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred $8.3 million and $16.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and $7.9 million and $15.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, in base management fees (including both the fixed and variable portion) and incentive management fees.
In addition, under the Advisory Agreement, the Company is required to pay the Advisor an incentive variable management fee equal to the product of (1) the fully diluted shares of common stock outstanding multiplied by (2) (x) 15.0% of the applicable quarter’s Core Earnings (as defined below) per share in excess of $0.275 per share plus (y) 10.0% of the applicable quarter’s Core Earnings per share in excess of $0.3125 per share, in each case as adjusted for changes in the number of shares of common stock outstanding. The definition of Adjusted Outstanding Shares (as defined in the Advisory Agreement), which is used to calculate Core Earnings per share, is based on the Company’s reported diluted weighted-average shares outstanding. In accordance with Amendment No. 3 to the Advisory Agreement, for the quarters ending June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, the low and high thresholds were reduced from $0.275 and $0.3125, respectively, to $0.23 and $0.27, respectively. On January 13, 2021, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 to the Advisory Agreement to extend the expiration of these thresholds from the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2020 to the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2021 in light of the continued economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Core Earnings is defined as, for the applicable period, net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP excluding non-cash equity compensation expense, the incentive management fee, acquisition and transaction related fees and expenses, financing related fees and expenses, depreciation and amortization, realized gains and losses on the sale of assets, any unrealized gains or losses or other non-cash items recorded in net income or loss for the applicable period, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive loss, or in net income, one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain non-cash charges, impairment losses on real estate related investments and other than temporary impairments of securities, amortization of deferred financing costs, amortization of tenant inducements, amortization of straight-line rent, amortization of market lease intangibles, provision for loss loans, and other non-recurring revenue and expenses (in each case after discussions between the Advisor and the independent directors and the approval of a majority of the independent directors). The incentive management fee is payable to the Advisor or its assignees in cash or shares, or a combination of both, the form of payment to be determined in the sole discretion of the Advisor and the value of any share to be determined by the Advisor acting in good faith on the basis of such quotations and other information as it considers, in its reasonable judgment, appropriate. The Company incurred $0.4 million of incentive management fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred $0.6 million and $0.7 million of incentive management fees, respectively.
Property Management Fees
The Company has a property management agreement (the “Multi-Tenant Property Management Agreement”), a leasing agreement (the “Multi-Tenant Leasing Agreement”) and a net lease property management and leasing agreement (the “Net Lease Property Management Agreement”) with the Property Manager. The Multi-Tenant Property Management Agreement, the Multi-Tenant Leasing Agreement and the Net Lease Property Management Agreement each became effective on February 16, 2017. In connection with the Net Lease Mortgage Notes, the Issuers have entered into the Property Management and Servicing

Agreement (as amended from time to time, the “ABS Property Management Agreement”), with the Property Manager, KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”), as back-up property manager, and Citibank, N.A. as indenture trustee. See Note 4— Mortgage Notes Payable, Net for additional information regarding the Notes.
The Multi-Tenant Property Management Agreement provides that, unless a property is subject to a separate property management agreement with the Property Manager, the Property Manager is the sole and exclusive property manager for the Company’s multi-tenant properties, which are generally anchored, retail properties, such as power centers and lifestyle centers. In December 2017, in connection with a $210.0 million mortgage loan secured by 12 of the Company’s retail properties, the Company entered into 12 identical property management agreements with the Property Manager, the substantive terms of which are substantially identical to the terms of the Multi-Tenant Property Management Agreement, except they do not provide for the transition fees described below.
The Multi-Tenant Property Management Agreement entitles the Property Manager to a management fee equal to 4.0% of the gross rental receipts from the multi-tenant properties, including common area maintenance reimbursements, tax and insurance reimbursements, percentage rental payments, utility reimbursements, late fees, vending machine collections, service charges, rental interruption insurance, and a 15.0% administrative charge for common area expenses.
In addition, the Property Manager is entitled to a one-time transition fee of up to $2,500 for each multi-tenant property managed, a construction fee equal to 6.0% of construction costs incurred, if any, and reimbursement of all expenses specifically related to the operation of a multi-tenant property, including compensation and benefits of property management, accounting, lease administration, executive and supervisory personnel of the Property Manager, and excluding expenses of the Property Manager’s corporate and general management office and excluding compensation and other expenses applicable to time spent on matters other than the multi-tenant properties.
Pursuant to the Multi-Tenant Leasing Agreement, the Company may, under certain circumstances and subject to certain conditions, pay the Property Manager a leasing fee for services in leasing multi-tenant properties to third parties.
The Company’s double- and triple-net leased single-tenant properties are managed by the Property Manager pursuant to the Net Lease Property Management Agreement, unless they are subject to a separate agreement with the Property Manager. The Net Lease Property Management Agreement permits the Property Manager to subcontract its duties to third parties and provides that the Company is responsible for all costs and expenses of managing the properties, except for general overhead and administrative expenses of the Property Manager. In December 2019, in connection with a loan secured by four properties leased to Stop & Shop, the Company entered into a property management and leasing agreement with the Property Manager with respect to the four properties, the substantive terms of which are substantially identical to the terms of the Net Lease Property Management Agreement, except that it limits the fees payable to the Property Manager and any subcontractor to 3.0% of operating income in the event that the Property Manager subcontracts its duties under the agreement.
In July 2020, in connection with the loan agreement with Column Financial, Inc., all but one of the Company’s borrower subsidiaries entered into a new property management and leasing agreement with the Property Manager with respect to all but one of the mortgaged properties, all of which are double- and triple-net leased single-tenant properties. The Company’s other double- and triple-net leased single-tenant properties, including the one mortgaged property excluded from the new property management and leasing agreement, are managed by the Property Manager pursuant to the Net Lease Property Management Agreement. The new property management and leasing agreement is identical to the Net Lease Property Management Agreement, except that the new property management and leasing agreement does not permit the Property Manager to subcontract its duties to third parties.
The initial term of the Net Lease Property Management Agreement ended on October 1, 2021, and has been and will be automatically renewed for successive one-year terms unless terminated 60 days prior to the end of a term or terminated for cause. On November 4, 2020, in light of the investment to be made by the Property Manager and its affiliates in property management infrastructure for the benefit of the Company and its subsidiaries, the Company amended each of the Multi-Tenant Property Management Agreement and the Multi-Tenant Leasing Agreement to reflect that each agreement will expire on the later of (i) November 4, 2025 and (ii) the termination date of the Advisory Agreement. These agreements with the Property Manager may only be terminated for cause prior to the end of the term. Prior to the amendments, the term of these agreements would have ended on October 1, 2021, with automatic renewals for successive one-year terms unless terminated 60 days prior to the end of a term or terminated for cause.
Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, certain subsidiaries of the OP each entered into a property management agreement with the Property Manager in connection with debt assumptions related to the acquisition of the properties of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. Each property management agreement entitles the Property Manager to a

management fee equal to 4.0% of the gross rental receipts from the properties, including common area maintenance reimbursements, tax and insurance reimbursements, percentage rental payments, utility reimbursements, late fees, vending machine collections, service charges, rental interruption insurance, and a 15.0% administrative charge for common area expenses. In addition, under these property management agreements, the Property Manager is entitled to a construction fee equal to 6.0% of construction costs incurred, if any, and reimbursement of all expenses specifically related to the operation of a multi-tenant property, including compensation and benefits of property management, accounting, lease administration, executive and supervisory personnel of the Property Manager, and excluding expenses of the Property Manager’s corporate and general management office and excluding compensation and other expenses applicable to time spent on matters other than the properties.
Property Management and Services Agreement - Net Lease Mortgage Notes
Under the ABS Property Management Agreement, the Property Manager is responsible for servicing and administering the properties and leases securing the Net Lease Mortgage Notes under ordinary and special circumstances, and KeyBank, as the back-up property manager, is responsible for, among other things, maintaining current servicing records and systems for the assets securing the Net Lease Mortgage Notes in order to enable it to assume the responsibilities of the Property Manager in the event the Property Manager is no longer the property manager and special servicer. Pursuant to the ABS Property Management Agreement, the Property Manager may also be required to advance principal and interest payments on the Net Lease Mortgage Notes to preserve and protect the value of the applicable assets. The Issuers are required to reimburse any of these payments or advances.
Pursuant to the ABS Property Management Agreement, as amended and restated in connection with the issuance of the 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes in June 2021, for all properties that are not specially serviced, the Issuers are required to pay the Property Manager a monthly fee equal to the product of (i) one-twelfth of 0.25% and (ii) the lower of (a) the aggregate allocated loan amounts and (b) the aggregate collateral value of the properties that are a part of the collateral pool. Prior to the amendment and restatement of the ABS Property Management Agreement, for all properties that were not specially serviced, the Issuers were required to pay the Property Manager a monthly fee equal to the product of (i) one-twelfth of 0.25%, and (ii) the aggregate allocated loan amounts of all the properties that serve as part of the collateral for the Net Lease Mortgage Notes. With respect to the specially serviced properties, the Property Manager is entitled to receive a workout fee or liquidation fee under certain circumstances based on 0.50% of applicable amounts recovered, as well as a monthly fee equal to the product of (i) one-twelfth of 0.75% and (ii) the lower of (a) the aggregate allocated loan amounts and (b) the aggregate collateral value of all the specially serviced properties that are part of the collateral pool. Prior to the amendment and restatement of the ABS Property Management Agreement, the monthly fee for specially serviced properties was equal to the product of (i) one-twelfth of 0.75%, and (ii) the aggregate allocated loan amounts of all the specially serviced properties that serve as part of the collateral pool for the Net Lease Mortgage Notes. The Property Manager has retained KeyBank as a sub-manager pursuant to a separate sub-management agreement pursuant to which KeyBank provides certain services that the Property Manager is required to provide as property manager under the ABS Property Management Agreement. Under the ABS Property Management Agreement, the Property Manager has agreed to waive (i) the portion of the monthly fee related to the properties that are not specially serviced that is in excess of the amount to be paid to KeyBank as sub-manager pursuant to the sub-management agreement, (ii) the workout fee, (iii) the liquidation fee and (iv) the monthly fee related to the properties that are specially serviced, although the Property Manager retains the right to revoke these waivers at any time. The Property Manager is also entitled to receive additional servicing compensation related to certain fees and penalties under the leases it is responsible for under the ABS Property Management Agreement.
The services provided by the Property Manager with respect to the double- and triple-net leased single-tenant properties in the collateral pool and related property management fees are separate and independent from the property management services the Property Manager has provided and will continue to provide with respect to those properties pursuant to the Net Lease Property Management Agreement.
Professional Fees and Other Reimbursements
34
THE NECESSITY RETAIL REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
The Company reimburses the Advisor’s costs of providing administrative services, including among other things, reasonable allocation of salaries and wages, benefits and overhead of employees of the Advisor or its affiliates, except for costs to the extent that the employees perform services for which the Advisor receives a separate fee. The reimbursement includes reasonable overhead expenses, including the reimbursement of an allocated portion of rent expense at certain properties that are both occupied by employees of the Advisor or its affiliates and owned by affiliates of the Advisor. These reimbursements are exclusive of fees and other expense reimbursements incurred from and due to the Advisor that were passed through and ultimately paid to Lincoln Retail REIT Services, LLC (“Lincoln”) as a result of the Advisor’s prior arrangements with Lincoln to provide services to the Advisor in connection with the Company’s multi-tenant retail properties that are not net leased. The Advisor’s agreement with Lincoln expired in February 2021 and was not renewed. The expiration of the agreement with Lincoln did not affect the responsibilities and obligations of the Advisor or the Property Manager to the Company under the Company’s agreements with them.
These reimbursements are included as part of Professional fees and other reimbursements in the table below and in general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred $3.9 million and $6.7 million, respectively, and $1.9 million and $4.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, of reimbursement expenses to the Advisor for providing administrative services.
Under the agreement, the Company is required to reimburse the Advisor for a portion of the salary, wages, and benefits paid to the Company’s chief financial officer as part of the aggregate reimbursement for salaries, wages and benefits of employees of the Advisor or its affiliates, excluding any executive officer who is also a partner, member or equity owner of AR Global and subject to a limit on certain limitations.
The aggregate amount that may be reimbursed in each fiscal year for salaries, wages and benefits (excluding overhead) of employees of the Advisor or its affiliates (the “Capped Reimbursement Amount”) for each fiscal year is subject to a limit that is equal to the greater of: (a) a fixed component (the “Fixed Component”); and (b) a variable component (the “Variable Component”).
Both the Fixed Component and the Variable Component increase by an annual cost of living adjustment equal to the greater of (x) 3.0% and (y) the CPI, as defined in the amendment for the prior year ended December 31. Initially, for the year ended December 31, 2019: (a) the Fixed Component was equal to $7.0 million; and (b) the Variable Component was equal to: (i) the sum of the total real estate investments, at cost as recorded on the balance sheet dated as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (the “Real Estate Cost”) in the year divided by four, which amount is then (ii) multiplied by 0.20%. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Fixed Component was $7.7 million and $7.4 million, respectively.
If the Company sells real estate investments aggregating an amount equal to or more than 25% of Real Estate Cost in one or a series of related dispositions in which the proceeds of the disposition(s) are not reinvested in Investments (as defined in the Advisory Agreement), then within 12 months following the disposition(s), the Advisory Agreement requires the Advisor and the Company to negotiate in good faith to reset the Fixed Component; provided that if the proceeds of the disposition(s) are paid to stockholders of the Company as a special distribution or used to repay loans with no intent of subsequently refinancing and reinvesting the proceeds thereof in Investments, the Advisory Agreement requires these negotiations within 90 days thereof, in each case taking into account reasonable projections of reimbursable costs in light of the reduced assets of the Company.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Advisor finalized the amounts and form of the 2020 bonuses previously estimated to be paid to the employees of the Advisor or its affiliates who provided administrative services during such calendar year, prorated for the time spent working on matters relating to the Company (the “2020 Bonus Awards”). The 2020 Bonus Awards were paid by the Advisor over an eleven-month period from June 2021 to April 2022. The final amounts awarded exceeded the amounts previously paid by the Company to the Advisor for estimated 2020 bonuses by approximately $1.4 million for the following reasons (i) forfeitures of bonuses related to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates who were terminated or resigned prior to payment (including the Company’s former chief financial officer), (ii) payment of a portion of bonuses in the form of restricted shares (which is recorded as equity-based compensation expense) and (iii) a general reduction in final bonuses for remaining personnel of the Advisor or its affiliates due to on-going negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, during the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded a receivable from the Advisor of $1.4 million, which was recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet and a corresponding reduction in general and administrative expenses. The Advisor paid the $1.4 million receivable to the Company in August 2021.
Reimbursements for the cash portion of 2021 and 2022 bonuses to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates were expensed and reimbursed and continue to be expensed and reimbursed on a monthly basis during 2021 and 2022 in accordance with the

cash bonus estimates provided by the Advisor. Generally, prior to the 2020 Bonus Awards, employee bonuses had been formally awarded to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates in March as an all-cash award and paid out by the Advisor in the year subsequent to the year in which services were rendered to the Company.

(3)Amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are included in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Includes amounts for directors’ and officers’ insurance.
Note 12 — Economic Dependency
Under various agreements, the Company has engaged or will engage the Advisor, its affiliates and entities under common control with the Advisor to provide certain services that are essential to the Company, including asset management services, supervision of the management and leasing of properties owned by the Company, asset acquisition and disposition decisions, as well as other administrative responsibilities for the Company including accounting and legal services, human resources and information technology.
As a result of these relationships, the Company is dependent upon the Advisor and its affiliates. In the event that these companies are unable to provide the Company with the respective services, the Company will be required to find alternative providers of these services.
Note 13 — Equity-Based Compensation
Equity Plans
2018 Equity Plan
Effective at the Listing, the Company’s board of directors adopted an equity plan for the Advisor (the “Advisor Plan”) and an equity plan for individuals (the “Individual Plan” and together with the Advisor Plan, the “2018 Equity Plan”). The Advisor Plan is substantially similar to the Individual Plan, except with respect to the eligible participants. Under the Individual Plan, the Company may only make awards to its directors, officers and employees (if the Company ever has employees), employees of the Advisor and its affiliates, employees of entities that provide services to the Company, directors of the Advisor or of entities that provide services to the Company, certain consultants to the Company and the Advisor and its affiliates or to entities that provide services to the Company. By contrast, under the Advisor Plan the Company may only make awards to the Advisor.
36
THE NECESSITY RETAIL REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
The 2018 Equity Plan succeeded and replaced the existing employee and director restricted share plan (the “RSP”). Following the effectiveness of the 2018 Equity Plan at the Listing, no further awards will be issued under the RSP; provided, however, that any outstanding awards under the RSP, such as unvested restricted shares held by the Company’s independent directors, remained outstanding in accordance with their terms and the terms of the RSP until all those awards are vested, forfeited, canceled, expired or otherwise terminated in accordance with their terms. The Company accounts for forfeitures when they occur. The 2018 Equity Plan permits awards of restricted shares, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, LTIP Units and other equity awards. The 2018 Equity Plan has a term of 10 years, expiring on July 19, 2028. Identical to the RSP, the number of shares of the Company’s capital stock available for awards under the 2018 Equity Plan, in the aggregate, is equal to 10.0% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock on a fully diluted basis at any time. Shares subject to awards under the Individual Plan reduce the number of shares available for awards under the Advisor Plan on a one-for-one basis and vice versa. If any awards granted under the 2018 Equity Plan are forfeited for any reason, the number of forfeited shares is again available for purposes of granting awards under the 2018 Equity Plan.
Restricted Shares
Restricted shares are shares of common stock awarded under terms that provide for vesting over a specified period of time. Holders of restricted shares may receive non-forfeitable cash dividends prior to the time that the restrictions on the restricted shares have lapsed. Any dividends to holders of restricted shares payable in shares of common stock are subject to the same restrictions as the underlying restricted shares. Restricted shares may not, in general, be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions are removed and the shares have vested.
Prior to June 30, 2020, the Company only granted restricted shares to the Company’s directors. However, during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company granted 278,278 and 309,475 restricted shares, respectively, to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates who are involved in providing services to the Company, including the Company’s chief financial officer. In the six months ended June 30, 2022, 249,700 restricted shares were granted to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates. No awards may be made to anyone who is also a partner, member or equity owner of the parent of the Advisor.
The restricted shares granted to the Company’s directors vest on a straight-line basis over periods of 1 year to 5 years from the date of grant and provide for accelerated vesting of the portion of the unvested restricted shares scheduled to vest in the year of the recipient’s termination of his or her position as a director of the Company due to a voluntary resignation or failure to be re-elected to the Company’s board of directors following nomination therefor. All unvested restricted shares held by the Company’s directors also vest in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the RSP or the Individual Plan) or a termination of a directorship without cause or as a result of death or disability.
The restricted shares granted to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates vest in 25% increments on each of the first anniversaries of the grant date. Except in connection with a change in control (as defined in the award agreement) of the Company, any unvested restricted shares will be forfeited if the holder’s employment with the Advisor terminates for any reason. Upon a change in control of the Company, 50% of the unvested restricted shares will immediately vest and the remaining unvested restricted shares will be forfeited.
The following table reflects the activity of restricted shares for the six months ended June 30, 2022:
| Number of Shares of Common Stock | Weighted-Average Grant Price | ||||||||||
| Unvested, December 31, 2021 | 422,869 | $ | 8.26 | ||||||||
| Granted | 292,572 | 7.86 | |||||||||
| Vested | (92,770) | 9.78 | |||||||||
| Forfeited | (275) | 9.48 | |||||||||
| Unvested, June 30, 2022 | 622,396 | 7.84 | |||||||||
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $4.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted share awards granted, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.1 years.
The fair value of the restricted shares is being expensed in accordance with the service period required. Compensation expense related to restricted shares is included in equity-based compensation on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Compensation expense related to restricted shares was approximately $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Compensation expense related to restricted shares
37
THE NECESSITY RETAIL REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
was approximately $0.4 million and $1.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The higher expense recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2021 was due to the accelerated vesting of restricted shares previously awarded to the Company’s former chief financial officer, as well as expense from an additional grant of restricted shares awarded to the Company’s former chief financial officer in February 2021 (see additional discussion below).
On February 26, 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved an amendment to the award agreement for 69,875 restricted shares previously awarded to the Company’s former chief financial officer. These restricted shares had been scheduled to vest in 25% increments on each of the first anniversaries of the grant date (September 15, 2020), however, in accordance with the amendment, these shares fully vested upon the effectiveness of the resignation of the Company’s former chief financial officer on April 9, 2021. This was treated as a modification of the award of these restricted shares and, in addition to accelerating the original expense, the Company was also required to calculate the excess of the new value of those awards on the date of modification over the fair value of the awards immediately prior to the amendment and record such excess as expense through April 9, 2021. In addition, also on February 26, 2021, the Company’s board of directors granted the Company’s former chief financial officer an additional award of 52,778 restricted shares that also fully vested upon the effectiveness of her resignation on April 9, 2021. The acceleration of vesting of the prior grant and the new grant resulted in approximately $1.1 million of increased equity-based compensation expense recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Restricted Stock Units
RSUs represent a contingent right to receive shares of common stock at a future settlement date, subject to satisfaction of applicable vesting conditions and other restrictions, as set forth in the RSP and an award agreement evidencing the grant of RSUs. RSUs may not, in general, be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions are removed and the rights to the shares of common stock have vested. Holders of RSUs do not have or receive any voting rights with respect to the RSUs or any shares underlying any award of RSUs, but such holders are generally credited with dividend or other distribution equivalents which are subject to the same vesting conditions and other restrictions as the underlying RSUs and only paid at the time such RSUs are settled in shares of common stock. The Company has not granted any RSUs, and no unvested RSUs were outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021.
Multi-Year Outperformance Agreements
2021 OPP
On May 4, 2021, the Company’s independent directors authorized an award of LTIP Units under the 2021 OPP after the performance period under the 2018 OPP expired on July 19, 2021, and, on July 21, 2021, the Company, the OP and the Advisor entered into the 2021 OPP (see below for additional information on the 2018 OPP, including information on the LTIP Units granted and earned thereunder).
On July 21, 2021, the Company and the Advisor entered into the 2021 OPP. Based on a maximum award value of $72.0 million and the Initial Share Price of $8.4419, which was determined on July 20, 2021, the Advisor was granted a total of 8,528,885 LTIP Units pursuant to the 2021 OPP. These LTIP Units may be earned and become vested based on the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”), including both share price appreciation and reinvestment of Class A common stock dividends, compared to the Initial Share Price over a performance period commencing on July 20, 2021 and ending on the earliest of (i) July 20, 2024, (ii) the effective date of any Change of Control (as defined in the Advisor Plan) and (iii) the effective date of any termination of the Advisor’s services as the Company’s advisor.
The amortization of the fair value of the LTIP Units that were granted will be recorded evenly over the requisite service period which is approximately 38.5 months from May 4, 2021, the date that the Company’s independent board of directors approved the award of LTIP Units under the 2021 OPP, through July 20, 2024, the end of the performance period.
The Company recorded $1.9 million in additional equity-based compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2021 which represented the pro rata share of the 2021 OPP’s service period from May 4, 2021 (the date of the grant) to July 20, 2024 (the end of the performance period). As of July 20, 2021, the Initial Share Price and the number of LTIP Units to be granted under the 2021 OPP became known and the fair value of the award as of July 20, 2021 was determined to be $40.8 million. As a result, the award of LTIP Units under the 2021 OPP was reclassified as an equity award on July 20, 2021, with any change in value and cumulative effect thereof, reflected in income and equity statements on that date.
2018 OPP
On the Listing Date, the Company granted a performance-based equity award to the Advisor in the form of a Master LTIP Unit pursuant to the 2018 OPP. The Master LTIP Unit was automatically converted on August 30, 2018 (the “Effective Date”),
38
THE NECESSITY RETAIL REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
the 30th trading day following the Listing Date, into 4,496,796 LTIP Units equal to the quotient of $72.0 million divided by $16.0114, the ten-day trailing average closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on Nasdaq over the ten consecutive trading days immediately prior to the Effective Date. The Effective Date was the grant date for accounting purposes. In accordance with accounting rules, the total fair value of the LTIP Units of $32.0 million was calculated and fixed as of the grant date, and was recorded over the requisite service period of three years. In March 2019, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2018 OPP to reflect a change in the peer group resulting from the merger of one member of the peer group, Select Income REIT, with Government Properties Income Trust, with the entity surviving the merger renamed as Office Properties Income Trust. Under the accounting rules, the Company was required to calculate any excess of the new value of LTIP Units in accordance with the provisions of the amendment ($10.9 million) over the fair value immediately prior to the amendment ($8.1 million). This excess of approximately $2.8 million was expensed over the period from March 4, 2019, the date the Company’s compensation committee approved the amendment, through July 19, 2021.
The LTIP Units issued pursuant to the 2018 OPP could potentially have been earned by the Advisor based on the Company’s achievement of threshold, target and maximum performance goals based on the Company’s absolute and relative TSR over a three-year performance period that ended on July 19, 2021. Prior to the issuance of LTIP Units pursuant to the 2021 OPP, the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company determined that none of the 4,496,796 of the LTIP Units subject to the 2018 OPP had been earned under either the absolute or relative thresholds. These LTIP Units were thus automatically forfeited effective as of July 19, 2021, without the payment of any consideration by the Company or the OP. On that date, the Company reclassified amounts reflected in non-controlling interest for these LTIP Units to additional paid in capital on its consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of equity.
Compensation Expense - 2021 OPP and 2018 OPP
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded equity-based compensation expense related to the LTIP Units of $3.2 million and $6.4 million, respectively, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 the Company recorded equity-based compensation expense related to the LTIP Units of $4.9 million and $7.9 million, respectively. These expenses are recorded in equity-based compensation in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $26.1 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to the LTIP Units awarded under the 2021 OPP which is expected to be recognized over a period of 2.1 years.
LTIP Units Distributions/Redemptions
The rights of the Advisor as the holder of the LTIP Units are governed by the terms of the LTIP Units set forth in the agreement of limited partnership of the OP. Holders of LTIP Units are entitled to distributions on the LTIP Units equal to 10% of the distributions made per Class A Unit (other than distributions of sale proceeds) until the LTIP Units are earned. Distributions paid on a Class A Unit are equal to dividends paid on a share of Class A common stock. Distributions paid on LTIP Units are not subject to forfeiture, even if the LTIP Units are ultimately forfeited. The Advisor is entitled to a priority catch-up distribution on each earned LTIP Unit equal to 90% of the aggregate distributions paid on Class A Units during the applicable performance period. Any LTIP Units that are earned become entitled to receive the same distributions paid on Class A Units. If and when the Advisor’s capital account with respect to an earned LTIP Unit is equal to the capital account balance of a Class A Unit, the Advisor, as the holder of the earned LTIP Unit, in its sole discretion, is entitled to convert the LTIP Unit into a Class A Unit, which may in turn be redeemed on a one-for-one basis for, at the Company’s election, a share of Class A common stock or the cash equivalent thereof.
The Company paid distributions on LTIP Units of $0.4 million and $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These amounts are recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of changes in equity.
Performance Measures
As indicated above, on July 19, 2021, at the end of the performance period, the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors determined that none of the 4,496,796 LTIP Units under the 2018 OPP had been earned. These LTIP Units were thus automatically forfeited effective as of July 19, 2021, without the payment of any consideration by the Company or the OP.
With respect to one-half of the LTIP Units granted under the 2021 OPP, the number of LTIP Units that become earned (if any) will be determined as of the last day of the performance period based on the Company’s achievement of absolute TSR levels as shown in the table below.
39
| Performance Level | Absolute TSR | Percentage of LTIP Units Earned | Number of LTIP Units Earned | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Below Threshold | Less than | 18 | % | 0 | % | 0 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Threshold | 18 | % | 25 | % | 1,066,110.625 | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Target | 24 | % | 50 | % | 2,132,221.250 | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Maximum | 36 | % | or higher | 100 | % | 4,264,442.500 | ||||||||||||||||||||
If the Company’s absolute TSR is more than 18% but less than 24%, or more than 24% but less than 36%, the number of LTIP Units that become earned is determined using linear interpolation as between those tiers, respectively.
With respect to the remaining one-half of the LTIP Units granted under the 2021 OPP, the number of LTIP Units that become earned (if any) will be determined as of the last day of the performance period based on the difference (expressed in terms of basis points, whether positive or negative, as shown in the table below) between the Company’s absolute TSR on the last day of the performance period relative to the average TSR of a peer group (consisting of Broadstone Net Lease, Inc., Office Properties Income Trust, RPT Realty and Spirit Realty Capital, Inc.) as of the last day of the performance period as follows:
| Performance Level | Relative TSR Excess | Percentage of LTIP Units Earned | Number of LTIP Units Earned | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Below Threshold | Less than | -600 | Basis points | 0 | % | 0 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Threshold | -600 | Basis points | 25 | % | 1,066,110.625 | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Target | 0 | Basis points | 50 | % | 2,132,221.250 | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Maximum | +600 | Basis points | 100 | % | 4,264,442.500 | |||||||||||||||||||||
If the relative TSR excess is more than -600 basis points but less than zero basis points, or more than zero basis points but less than +600 basis points, the number of LTIP Units that become earned is determined using linear interpolation as between those tiers, respectively.
Other Terms
In the case of a Change of Control or a termination of the Advisor without Cause (as defined in the Advisory Agreement), the number of LTIP Units that become earned will be calculated based on actual performance through the last trading day prior to the effective date of the Change of Control or termination (as applicable), with the hurdles for calculating absolute TSR prorated to reflect a performance period of less than three years but without prorating the number of LTIP Units that may become earned to reflect the shortened performance period.
In the case of a termination of the Advisor for Cause, the number of LTIP Units that become earned will be calculated based on actual performance through the last trading day prior to the effective date of the termination, with the hurdles for calculating absolute TSR and the number of LTIP Units that may become earned each prorated to reflect a performance period of less than three years.
Pursuant to the terms of the Advisor Plan, the LTIP Units will be administered by the Company’s board or a committee thereof, defined as the “Committee” in the Advisor Plan. Promptly following the performance period, the Committee will, except in certain circumstances, determine the number of LTIP Units earned (if any) based on calculations prepared by an independent consultant engaged by the Committee and as approved by the Committee in its reasonable and good faith discretion. The Committee also must approve the transfer of any LTIP Units or any Class A Units into which LTIP Units may be converted in accordance with the terms of the agreement of limited partnership of the OP. Any LTIP Units that are not earned will automatically be forfeited effective as of the end of the performance period and neither the Company nor the OP will be required to pay any future consideration in respect thereof.
Director Compensation
Under the current director compensation program, on a regular basis, each independent director receives an annual cash retainer of $60,000 and, in connection with each of the Company’s annual meetings of stockholders, a grant of $85,000 in restricted shares, vesting on the one-year anniversary of the annual meeting.
The lead independent director receives an additional annual cash retainer of $100,000, the chair of the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors receives an additional annual cash retainer of $30,000, each other member of the audit

committee receives an additional annual cash retainer of $15,000, the chair of each of the compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee of the Company’s board of directors receives an additional annual cash retainer of $15,000, and each other member of each of the compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee receives an additional annual cash retainer of $10,000.
Other Equity-Based Compensation
The Company may issue common stock in lieu of cash to pay fees earned by the Company’s directors at each director’s election. If the Company did so, there would be no restrictions on the shares issued since these payments in lieu of cash relate to fees earned for services performed. There were no shares of common stock issued to directors in lieu of cash compensation during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Under current authoritative guidance for determining earnings per share, all unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to distributions are considered to be participating securities and therefore are included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common shares and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s unvested restricted shares, Class A Units and unearned LTIP Units contain rights to receive distributions considered to be non-forfeitable, except in certain limited circumstances, and therefore the Company applies the two-class method of computing earnings per share. The calculation of earnings per share above excludes the distributions to the unvested restricted shares, Class A Units and the unearned LTIP Units that were issued under the 2021 OPP from the numerator.
Diluted net income per share assumes the conversion of all Common Stock share equivalents into an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock, unless the effect is antidilutive. The Company considers unvested restricted shares, Class A Units and unvested LTIP Units to be common share equivalents. The following table shows common share equivalents on a weighted average basis that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been antidilutive for the periods presented:

If dilutive, conditionally issuable shares relating to the 2021 OPP award and 2018 OPP award would be included, as applicable, in the computation of fully diluted EPS on a weighted-average basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 based on shares that would be issued if the applicable balance sheet date was the end of the measurement period.
No LTIP Unit share equivalents were included in the computation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 because (i) no LTIP Units would have been earned based on the trading price of Class A common stock including any cumulative dividends paid (since inception of the 2021 OPP and 2018 OPP) at June 30, 2022 and 2021 or (ii) the Company recorded a net loss to common stockholders for the period, thus any shares conditionally issuable under the LTIP Units would be antidilutive.
Note 15 - Segment Reporting
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, as a result of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition and the related strategic shift in the Company’s operations, the Company concluded it operates in two reportable segments consistent with its current management internal financial reporting purposes: single-tenant properties and multi-tenant properties. The Company will evaluate performance and make resource allocations based on its two business segments.
Previously, before the CIM Portfolio Acquisition (for which the purchase and sale agreement was signed on December 17, 2021), the Company concluded it was operating in one segment. Upon concluding that a change in its reporting segments has occurred, the Company retroactively restated the historical segment reporting presentation for the three years ended December 31, 2021 as presented in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Below, the Company has restated the prior period to conform to its current segment reporting structure for comparative purposes. Hereafter, the Company will restate other prior quarterly periods for 2021 when they are subsequently reported in later filings for comparative purposes.
Net Operating Income
The Company evaluates the performance of the combined properties in each segment based on net operating income (“NOI”). NOI is defined as total revenues from tenants, less property operating and maintenance expense. NOI excludes all other items of expense and income included in the financial statements in calculating net income (loss). The Company uses NOI to assess and compare property level performance and to make decisions concerning the operation of the properties. The Company believes that NOI is useful as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating expenses and acquisition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income (loss).
NOI excludes certain components from net income (loss) in order to provide results that are more closely related to a property’s results of operations. For example, interest expense is not necessarily linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset. In addition, depreciation and amortization, because of historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, may distort operating performance at the property level. NOI presented by the Company may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. The Company believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the Company’s operating results, NOI should be compared with net income (loss) prepared in accordance with GAAP and as presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of the Company’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of the Company’s liquidity or ability to pay distributions.
The following tables reconcile the segment activity to consolidated net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

Note 16 — Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and determined that there were not any material events that have occurred that would require adjustments to, or disclosures in, the consolidated financial statements except those stated below:
CIM Portfolio Acquisition
On July 7, 2022, the Company closed on the one remaining property of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition for an aggregate contract purchase price of $71.1 million. The acquisition was funded with the assumption of $39.0 million of fixed rate mortgage debt, the application of the remaining $16.2 million of the Company’s $40 million deposit, and the remainder with cash on hand (including $6.8 million of previous borrowings under the Credit Facility). The assumed mortgage bears stated interest of 4.05% and matures in May 2024. The contract purchase price does not include contingent consideration relating to leasing activity at the property subsequent to the closing date of the acquired properties. The Company paid $16.1 million of additional contingent consideration in July 2022 ($10.8 million of which was accrued as of June 30, 2022) relating to the final property and previously acquired properties.
Dispositions Subsequent to June 30, 2022
Subsequent to June 30, 2022, the Company disposed of three properties for an aggregate contract sales price of $3.9 million. These properties were classified as assets held for sale on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2022.

Risk Factors below.
Overview
We are an externally managed real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes (“REIT”) focusing on acquiring and managing a diversified portfolio of primarily service-oriented and traditional retail and distribution-related commercial real estate properties located primarily in the United States. Our assets consist primarily of freestanding single-tenant properties that are net leased to “investment grade” and other creditworthy tenants and a portfolio of multi-tenant retail properties consisting primarily of power centers and lifestyle centers. We historically focused our acquisitions primarily on net leased, single-tenant service retail properties, defined as properties leased to tenants in the retail banking, restaurant, grocery, pharmacy, gas, convenience, fitness, and auto services sectors.
On December 17, 2021, we signed a purchase and sale agreement to acquire 79 multi-tenant retail centers and two single-tenant properties for $1.3 billion (the “CIM Portfolio Acquisition”). The CIM Portfolio Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition. The acquisition closed in multiple transactions in 2022 and the consideration included cash (including cash sourced from borrowings under the Credit Facility, as defined below), assumption of existing mortgage debt securing certain of the properties and the issuance of shares of our Class A common stock.
We closed on the properties of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition in multiple stages as follows:
•In the three months ended March 31, 2022, we closed on the acquisition of 56 properties of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition for an aggregate contract purchase price of $801.1 million which was funded by $728.4 million in cash, including $378.0 million of borrowings under our Credit Facility, the assumption of $19.3 million of existing mortgage debt and the issuance of $50.0 million in value at issuance ($53.4 million of value subject to repurchase) of the Company’s Class A common stock to certain subsidiaries of the CIM Real Estate Finance Trust, Inc. (the “Sellers”), at its closing value on the respective closing dates on which the common stock was issued.
•In the three months ended June 30, 2022, we closed on 24 additional properties from the CIM Portfolio for an aggregate contract purchase price of $452.8 million in three closings. The acquisitions were funded with the assumption of $294.5 million of fixed-rate mortgage debt, $128.2 million of $135.0 million of borrowings under the Credit Facility, the application of $23.8 million of the Company’s $40.0 million deposit and the remainder with cash on hand. The assumed mortgages bear stated interest rates between 3.65% and 4.62% and mature between April 2023 and September 2033.
•We closed on the one remaining property from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition on July 7, 2022 for a contract purchase price of $71.1 million. The acquisition was funded with the assumption of $39.0 million of fixed-rate mortgage debt, the application of the remaining $16.2 million of our $40.0 million deposit, and the remainder with cash on hand (including $6.8 million of previous borrowings under the Credit Facility). The assumed mortgage bears a stated interest rate of 4.05% and matures in May 2024 (see Note 16 — Subsequent Events).
45
•The aggregate contract purchase prices above do not include contingent consideration relating to leasing activity at each respective acquired property for a six-month period subsequent to the respective closing dates of each acquired property. We paid $10.2 million and $13.3 million for such contingent consideration in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and three months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, we accrued for $10.8 million of contingent consideration based on leases executed as of June 30, 2022. We paid $16.1 million in July 2022, which includes the accrual $10.8 million, and additional amounts may be due for leases executed through January 2023 (six months following the acquisition date of the final property of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition).
For additional information on the closing of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, including funding details, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” herein and see Note 3 — Real Estate Investments to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information.
In addition, we acquired eight additional single-tenant properties in the three months ended June 30, 2022 for an aggregate contract purchase price of $17.5 million. We acquired 10 additional single-tenant properties and one additional multi-tenant retail property in the six months ended June 30, 2022 for an aggregate contract purchase price of $58.4 million.
As of June 30, 2022, we owned 1,056 properties, comprised of 28.9 million rentable square feet, which were 90.8% leased, including 944 single-tenant net-leased commercial properties (906 of which are retail properties) and 112 multi-tenant retail properties. Based on annualized rental income on a straight-line basis as of June 30, 2022, the total single-tenant properties comprised 48% of our total portfolio and were 66% leased to service retail tenants, and the total multi-tenant properties comprised 52% of our portfolio, and were 44% leased to experiential retail tenants, defined as tenants in the restaurant, discount retail, entertainment, salon/beauty and grocery store sectors, among others. Substantially all of our business is conducted through the OP and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Advisor manages our day-to-day business with the assistance of our property manager, Necessity Retail Properties, LLC (the “Property Manager”). The Advisor and the Property Manager are under common control with AR Global Investments, LLC (“AR Global”) and these related parties receive compensation and fees for providing services to us. We also reimburse these entities for certain expenses they incur in providing these services to us.
For our purposes, “investment grade” includes both tenants (or lease guarantors) with actual investment grade ratings or tenants with “implied” investment grade ratings. Implied investment grade may include the actual rating of a tenant’s parent or the guarantor of the parent (regardless of whether the parent has guaranteed the tenant’s obligation under the lease) or tenants that are identified as investment grade by using a proprietary Moody’s analytical tool which generates an implied rating by measuring an entity’s probability of default. Based on annualized rental income on a straight-line basis as of June 30, 2022, approximately 52.2% of the tenants in our single-tenant portfolio were considered “investment grade” consisting of 39.6% with actual investment grade ratings and 12.6% with implied investment grade ratings, and approximately 41.1% of the anchor tenants in our multi-tenant portfolio were considered “investment grade” consisting of 30.7% with actual investment grade ratings and 10.4% with implied investment grade ratings.
Management Update on the Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 global pandemic has created several risks and uncertainties that may impact our business, including our future results of operations and our liquidity. The ultimate impact on our results of operations, our liquidity and the ability of our tenants to continue to pay us rent will depend on numerous factors including the overall length and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic. For a further discussion of the risks and uncertainties associated with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on us, see Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
We have taken several steps to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on our business. We have been in direct contact with our tenants since the crisis began, cultivating open dialogue and deepening the fundamental relationships that we have carefully developed through prior transactions and historic operations. Based on this approach and the overall financial strength and creditworthiness of our tenants, we believe that we have had positive results in our cash rent collections during this pandemic. We have collected 99% of the original cash rent due for the second quarter of 2022 across our entire portfolio, (based on the total of second quarter 2022 cash rent due across our portfolio). This was consistent with the quarterly collections during the first quarter of 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2021 and reflects the expiration of rent deferral agreements where tenants have resumed paying full rent as well as collections of deferred rent paid during the period.
“Original cash rent” refers to contractual rents on a cash basis due from tenants as stipulated in their originally executed lease agreement at inception or as amended, prior to any rent deferral agreement. We calculate “original cash rent collections” by comparing the total amount of rent collected during the period to the original cash rent due. Total rent collected during the period includes both original cash rent due and payments made by tenants pursuant to rent deferral agreements. Eliminating the impact of deferred rent paid, we collected 98% of original cash rent collections for the second quarter of 2022.
A deferral agreement is an executed or approved amendment to an existing lease to defer a certain portion of cash rent due to a future period. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we granted rent deferrals for an aggregate of $0.4 million or
46
approximately 1% of original cash rent due for the year. Nearly all amounts deferred are scheduled for repayment during various times through the end of 2022. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we did not defer any additional rents. As of July 31, 2022, we have collected approximately 97% of the total $7.4 million rents we previously deferred.
During the first and second quarters of 2022, we did not grant any rent abatements. The most common arrangements granted provide deferral of some or all of the rent due for the period in which the arrangement was granted with such amounts to be paid in 2022. The terms of these lease amendments providing for rent deferrals and abatements differ by tenant in terms of length and amount of the deferral or abatement, although the deferrals and abatements are generally coupled with an extension of the lease.
The cash rent collections for the second quarter of 2022 includes cash receipts collected through July 31, 2022. Cash receipts received in July are not, however, included in cash and cash equivalents on our June 30, 2022 consolidated balance sheet. The below cash rent status may not be indicative of any future period and remains subject to changes based on ongoing collection efforts and negotiation of additional agreements. Moreover, there is no assurance that we will be able to collect the cash rent that is due in future months including amounts previously deferred. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our tenants and thus our ability to collect rents in future periods cannot be determined at present.
The table below shows the percentage of original cash rent for our single-tenant portfolio, our multi-tenant portfolio, and our total portfolio we collected in each fiscal quarter of 2020, 2021 and 2022:

Results of Operations
In December 2021, we signed a purchase and sale agreement to acquire 79 multi-tenant retail centers and two single-tenant properties (the “CIM Portfolio Acquisition”), representing a strategic shift away from a sole focus on single-tenant retail properties. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2021, we began operating in two reportable business segments for management and internal financial reporting purposes. In our single-tenant operating segment, we own, manage and lease single-tenant properties where tenants are required to pay for property operating expenses, which may be subject to expense exclusions and floors, in addition to base rent. In our multi-tenant operating segment, we own, manage and lease multi-tenant properties where we generally pay for the property operating expenses for those properties and most of our tenants are required to pay their pro rata share of property operating expenses.
In addition to the comparative period-over-period discussion below, please see the “Overview — Management Update on the Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic” section above for additional information on the risks and uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and management’s actions taken to mitigate those risks and uncertainties.

The change in net loss attributable to common stockholders is discussed in detail for each line item of the consolidated statements of operations in the sections that follow.
Same Store Properties
Information based on Same Store, Acquisitions and Dispositions (as each are defined below) allows us to evaluate the performance of our portfolio based on a consistent population of properties owned for the entire period of time covered. As of June 30, 2022, we owned 1,056 properties. There were 903 properties owned for the entire three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (our “Three Month Same Store Properties”) which were 92.6% leased as of June 30, 2022, and 90.7% leased after giving effect to the C&S Grocery lease expiration on July 1, 2022 representing approximately 360,000 square feet. Since April 1, 2021 and through June 30, 2022, we acquired 153 properties (our “Acquisitions Since April 1, 2021”) which were 87.5% leased as of June 30, 2022, and disposed of 22 properties (our “Dispositions Since April 1, 2021”).

Net Operating Income
Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure used by us to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate portfolio. NOI is equal to revenue from tenants less property operating expense. NOI excludes all other financial statement amounts included in net loss attributable to common stockholders. We believe NOI provides useful and relevant information because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and presents such items on an unlevered basis. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional disclosure and a reconciliation to our net loss attributable to common stockholders.

Revenue from Tenants
Revenue from tenants increased $4.2 million to $55.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $51.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase in revenue from tenants was due to incremental revenue from our Acquisitions Since April 1, 2021 of approximately $3.4 million, and from an increase in our Three Month Same Store Properties revenue of approximately $4.6 million, partially offset by a decrease of $3.8 million from our Dispositions Since April 1, 2021.
The increase in our Three Month Same Store Properties revenue was mainly due to an additional $4.6 million of tenant revenue recognized under termination agreements signed since December 2021 (some of which had occupancy periods that expired during the three months ended June 30, 2022, see Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Revenue Recognition for additional information), an increase of $1.2 million of operating expense reimbursement revenue and a decrease of $0.5 million of bad debt expense, which is recorded as a reduction to revenue.
These increases were partially offset by $1.4 million of lower revenue from our United Healthcare property, which had annual rents of $5.4 million prior to its tenant vacating effective on June 30, 2021, as well as $0.5 million of lower revenue from other properties which were vacant in the three months ended June 30, 2022 but which were occupied in the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expenses primarily consist of the costs associated with maintaining our properties including real estate taxes, utilities, and repairs and maintenance. Property operating expenses increased $1.5 million to $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was driven by an increase of approximately $1.3 million in our Three Month Same Store Properties and by an increase of $0.3 million from our Acquisitions Since April 1, 2021.

(4)Our multi-tenant segment included 112 total properties.
Revenue from Tenants
Revenue from tenants increased $31.1 million to $61.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $29.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase in revenue from tenants was due to incremental revenue from our Acquisitions Since April 1, 2021 of approximately $33.0 million, $32.7 million of which was attributable to the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, partially offset by a decrease in our Three Month Same Store Properties revenue of approximately $1.9 million. Please see Note 1 — Organization to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details on the CIM Portfolio Acquisition.
The decrease in our Three Month Same Store Properties revenue was mainly due to a decrease of $0.8 million of termination fee income, a recovery of $0.8 million relating to a lease settlement fee from a tenant which was recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2021, $0.1 million of less contingent rental income and $0.1 million of less amortization of below market lease intangibles in the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expenses primarily consist of the costs associated with maintaining our properties including real estate taxes, utilities, and repairs and maintenance. Property operating expenses increased $12.7 million to $23.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $10.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was driven by an increase of approximately $0.7 million in our Three Month Same Store Properties, and by an increase of $12.0 million from
58
our Acquisitions Since April 1, 2021, $11.7 million of which was attributable to the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. Please see Note 1 — Organization to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details on the CIM Portfolio Acquisition.
Other Results of Operations
Asset Management Fees to Related Party
Asset management fees paid to the Advisor increased $0.4 million to $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $7.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase of $0.6 million in the variable portion of the base management fee due to our increased equity issuances in 2022 over the comparable period in 2021, partially offset by a decrease of $0.2 million of incentive variable management fees incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.
The variable portion of the base management fee is calculated on a monthly basis and is equal to one-twelfth of 1.25% of the cumulative net proceeds of any equity raised by us (including, among other things, common stock, including shares subject to repurchase, preferred stock and certain convertible debt but excluding among other things, equity-based compensation). The variable portion of the base management fee will increase in connection with future issuances of equity securities.
In light of the unprecedented market disruption resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, in March 2020, we agreed with the Advisor to amend the advisory agreement to temporarily lower the quarterly thresholds we must reach on a quarterly basis for the Advisor to receive the variable incentive management fee through the end of 2020, and in January 2021, we agreed with the Advisor to further amend the advisory agreement to extend the expiration of these thresholds through the end of 2021, at which point it was not renewed. Please see Note 11 — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding fees incurred from the Advisor.
Impairment Charges
We recorded impairment charges of $59.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, $49.6 million of which related to a multi-tenant property located in Minnesota, $5.9 million of which related to five vacant single-tenant properties formerly leased to Truist Bank and $3.5 million of which related to a multi-tenant property acquired in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. All of the impaired properties were impaired to adjust the properties’ carrying values to their fair values as determined by their respective purchase and sales agreements if under a contract to be disposed, or their estimated fair values if not under a contract to be disposed.
We recorded $0.1 million of impairment charges for the three months ended June 30, 2021 related to a vacant single-tenant held-for-use property which was recorded to adjust the property to its fair value as determined by the income approach.
Acquisition, Transaction and Other Costs
Acquisition, transaction and other costs increased by $0.1 million to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to increased acquisition activity in the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Equity-Based Compensation
Equity-based compensation decreased by $1.8 million to $3.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $5.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. Equity-based compensation expenses relate to restricted shares of Class A common stock (“restricted shares”) granted to our board of directors and employees of the Advisor or its affiliates who are involved in providing services to us and the LTIP Units (as defined below) that were granted to our Advisor in 2021 pursuant to the 2021 OPP (as defined below) or granted in 2018 pursuant to the 2018 OPP (as defined below).
The higher expense recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2021 was due to $1.9 million of additional non-cash equity-based compensation expense from the 2021 multi-year outperformance agreement with the Advisor (the “2021 OPP”) in the form of a new award of units of limited partnership in the OP designated as “LTIP Units” (“LTIP Units”) authorized by our independent directors on May 4, 2021 to be issued to the Advisor under the 2021 OPP after the performance period of the multi-year outperformance agreement previously entered into with the Advisor in 2018 (the “2018 OPP”) expired on July 19, 2021. The three months ended June 30, 2021 includes expenses for both the 2018 OPP and the 2021 OPP (see Note 13 — Equity-Based Compensation).
General and Administrative Expense
59
General and administrative expense increased $4.9 million to $8.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to $2.1 million of increased professional expense reimbursements, as well as a $1.4 million professional fee credit in the three months ended June 30, 2021 which did not occur in the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increased professional expense reimbursements are due to additional staffing needed by the Advisor as a result of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. Additionally, legal expenses increased $0.6 million, accounting fees increased $0.6 million and miscellaneous fees increased $0.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $14.1 million to $46.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $32.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Depreciation and amortization expense was impacted by an increase of $17.5 million related to our Acquisitions Since April 1, 2021 (including, most notably, the CIM Portfolio Acquisition), partially offset by a decrease of $0.9 million from our Three Month Same Store Properties as well as by a decrease of $2.5 million from our Dispositions Since April 1, 2021.
Gain on Sale of Real Estate Investments
During the three months ended June 30, 2022 we sold five properties. These properties sold for an aggregate contract price of $30.4 million, resulting in aggregate gains on sale of $13.4 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2021 we sold three properties for an aggregate contract price of $2.5 million, resulting in aggregate gains on sale of $11,000.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $8.0 million to $28.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $20.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was mainly due to interest expense of $5.6 million on our $500.0 million of 4.50% per annum Senior Notes issued in 2021, as well as higher average balances on our mortgage and Credit Facility debt (resulting largely from the assumption of mortgage debt and borrowings under our Credit Facility to finance the CIM Portfolio Acquisition), partially offset by lower average interest rates. Please see Note 1 — Organization to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details on the CIM Portfolio Acquisition.
During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the average outstanding balances on our mortgage notes payable were $1.8 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively, and our average outstanding balance under our revolving, unsecured corporate credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) was $464.4 million and $255.7 million, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the weighted-average interest rates on our mortgage notes payable were 3.82% and 3.94%, respectively, and the weighted-average interest rates on our Credit Facility were 2.69% and 2.79%, respectively. The reduction of the weighted-average interest rate on our Credit Facility during the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 is primarily due to lower credit spreads to LIBOR on our Credit Facility after the amendment which occurred on October 1, 2021.
We anticipate that the interest rate on our Credit Facility will increase throughout 2022 as a result of, among other things, recent actions taken by the Federal Reserve Board to increase interest rates and its intention to reduce the amount of assets on its balance sheet. See Item 1.A Risk Factors for additional information.
Other Income
Other income was $0.9 million and $20,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in other income during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to the settlement of $0.9 million of liens incurred on our Prairie Towne property in the three months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of a settlement with the lien holder during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Net Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders
Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $16.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to net loss attributable to common stockholders of $16.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The change in net loss attributable to common stockholders is discussed in detail for each line item of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the sections that follow.
Same Store Properties
Information based on Same Store, Acquisitions and Dispositions (as each are defined below) allows us to evaluate the performance of our portfolio based on a consistent population of properties owned for the entire period of time covered. As of June 30, 2022, we owned 1,056 properties. There were 896 properties owned for the entire six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (our “Six Month Same Store Properties”) which were 92.6% leased as of June 30, 2022, and 90.5% leased after giving effect to the C&S Grocery lease expiration on July 1, 2022 representing approximately 360,000 square feet. Since January 1, 2021 and through June 30, 2022, we acquired 160 properties (our “Acquisitions Since January 1, 2021”) which were 87.5% leased as of June 30, 2022, and disposed of 24 properties (our “Dispositions Since January 1, 2021”).

Net Operating Income
Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure used by us to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate portfolio. NOI is equal to revenue from tenants less property operating expense. NOI excludes all other financial statement amounts included in net loss attributable to common stockholders. We believe NOI provides useful and relevant information because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and presents such items on an unlevered basis. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional disclosure and a reconciliation to our net loss attributable to common stockholders.

Revenue from Tenants
Revenue from tenants increased $6.9 million to $109.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $102.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to incremental income from our Acquisitions Since January 1, 2021 of approximately $7.4 million, and an increase in our Six Month Same Store Properties revenue of approximately $7.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in revenue from our Dispositions Since January 1, 2021 of $8.4 million, most significantly from the disposition of our Sanofi property on January 6, 2022, which had annual rents of approximately $17.2 million.
The increase in our Six Month Same Store Properties revenue was mainly due to an additional $8.8 million of tenant revenue recognized under termination agreements signed since December 2021 (some of which had occupancy periods that expired during the six months ended June 30, 2022, see Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Revenue Recognition for additional information) recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $2.3 million of operating expense reimbursement revenue and a decrease of $0.6 million of bad debt expense, which is recorded as a reduction to revenue.
These increases were partially offset by $2.7 million of lower revenue from our United Healthcare property, which had annual rents of $5.4 million prior to its vacancy on June 30, 2021, as well as by $1.4 million of lower revenue from other properties which were vacant in the six months ended June 30, 2022 but which were occupied in the six months ended June 30, 2021.
62
Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expense increased $2.9 million to $8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily driven by an increase of $0.7 million from our Acquisitions Since January 1, 2021, and by an increase from our Six Month Same Store Properties of $2.2 million.

Revenue from Tenants
Revenue from tenants increased $44.2 million to $102.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $58.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase in revenue from tenants was due to incremental revenue from our Acquisitions Since January 1, 2021 of approximately $45.5 million ($44.1 million of which was attributable to the CIM Portfolio Acquisition), partially offset by a decrease in our Six Month Same Store Properties revenue of approximately $1.3 million. Please see Note 1 — Organization to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details on the CIM Portfolio Acquisition.
The decrease in our Six Month Same Store Properties revenue was primarily due to $0.9 million of decreased termination fee income, $0.8 million of decreased operating expense reimbursement revenue and a recovery of $0.8 million relating to a lease settlement fee from a tenant which was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2021. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $0.7 million due to marginally higher occupancy in the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 and by $0.5 million of decreased bad debt expense, which is recorded as a reduction to revenue.
Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expenses primarily consist of the costs associated with maintaining our properties including real estate taxes, utilities, and repairs and maintenance. Property operating expenses increased $17.0 million to $38.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $21.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was driven by an increase of approximately $0.9 million in our Six Month Same Store Properties, and by an increase of $16.2 million from our Acquisitions Since January 1, 2021 ($15.7 million of which was attributable to the CIM Portfolio Acquisition). Please see Note 1 — Organization to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details on the CIM Portfolio Acquisition.
Other Results of Operations
Asset Management Fees to Related Party
Asset management fees paid to the Advisor increased $0.9 million to $16.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $15.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase of $1.2 million in the variable portion of the base management fee during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to our increased equity issuances in 2022 over the comparable period in 2021, partially offset by a decrease of $0.3 million of incentive variable management fees.
The variable portion of the base management fee is calculated on a monthly basis and is equal to one-twelfth of 1.25% of the cumulative net proceeds of any equity raised by us (including, among other things, common stock, including shares subject to repurchase, preferred stock and certain convertible debt but excluding among other things, equity-based compensation). The variable portion of the base management fee will increase in connection with future issuances of equity securities.
63
In light of the unprecedented market disruption resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, in March 2020, we agreed with the Advisor to amend the advisory agreement to temporarily lower the quarterly thresholds we must reach on a quarterly basis for the Advisor to receive the variable incentive management fee through the end of 2020, and in January 2021, we agreed with the Advisor to further amend the advisory agreement to extend the expiration of these thresholds through the end of 2021, at which point it was not renewed. Please see Note 11 — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information on fees incurred from the Advisor.
Impairment Charges
We recorded impairment charges of $64.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, $49.6 million of which related to a multi-tenant property located in Minnesota, $8.0 million of which related to seven vacant single-tenant properties formerly leased to Truist Bank, $3.8 million of which related to one vacant single-tenant property formerly leased to United Healthcare and $3.5 million of which related to a multi-tenant property acquired in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. The United Healthcare property has been vacant since June 30, 2021 when the tenant did not renew its lease. We previously impaired the United Healthcare property by $26.9 million during the three months ended December 31, 2021. All of the impaired properties were impaired to adjust the properties’ carrying values to their fair values as determined by their respective purchase and sales agreements if under a contract to be disposed, or their estimated fair values if not under a contract to be disposed.
We recorded impairment charges of $0.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 related to a vacant single-tenant held-for-use property which was recorded to adjust the property to its fair value as determined by the income approach. Please see Note 3 — Real Estate Investments to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding impairment charges.
Acquisition, Transaction and Other Costs
Acquisition, transaction and other costs increased $0.3 million to $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to increased acquisition activity in the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Equity-Based Compensation
Equity-based compensation decreased by approximately $2.6 million to $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $9.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to additional non-cash equity-based compensation expense from the 2021 OPP and additional non-cash equity-based compensation expense from a new grant of restricted shares in the second quarter of 2021 as well as an amendment to the original award agreement on February 26, 2021 for restricted shares previously issued to our former chief financial officer (see additional details below).
Our independent directors, acting as a group, authorized the issuance of a new award of LTIP Units on May 4, 2021 which was subsequently issued to the Advisor under the 2021 OPP after the performance period under the 2018 OPP expired on July 19, 2021. The six months ended June 30, 2021 includes expenses for both the 2018 OPP and the 2021 OPP (see Note 13— Equity-Based Compensation). The performance period for the 2018 OPP ended on July 19, 2021 and therefore no further expense has been recorded for the 2018 OPP after the third quarter of 2021.
In addition, there were higher equity-based compensation expenses for restricted shares recorded in the first six months of 2021 which was due to new grants as well as an amendment to the original award agreement on February 26, 2021 for restricted shares previously issued to our former chief financial officer which accelerated the vesting of those restricted shares on April 9, 2021 upon the effectiveness of her resignation. These restricted shares were scheduled to vest in 25% increments on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date (September 15, 2020). Also, we recorded additional expense for the excess of the new value of those awards on the date of modification over the fair value of the awards immediately prior to the amendment. In addition, we granted our former chief financial officer an additional award of restricted shares that also fully vested upon the effectiveness of her resignation on April 9, 2021, contributing to the increase to equity-based compensation expense recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The acceleration of vesting of the prior grant and the new grant resulted in approximately $1.1 million of increased equity-based compensation expense recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
General and Administrative Expense
General and administrative expense increased $5.2 million to $15.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to $2.5 million of increased professional expense reimbursements, as well as a $1.4 million professional fee credit in the six months ended June 30, 2021 which did not occur in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increased professional expense reimbursements are due to additional staffing needed by the Advisor as a result of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. Additionally, accounting fees increased $0.4 million, legal fees increased $0.2 million and miscellaneous fees increased $0.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.
64
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $19.5 million to $84.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $64.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Depreciation and amortization expense was impacted by an increase of $26.5 million related to our Acquisitions Since January 1, 2021 (including, most notably, the CIM Portfolio Acquisition), partially offset by a decrease of $1.8 million from our Six Month Same Store Properties and a decrease of $5.2 million from our Dispositions Since January 1, 2021.
Gain on Sale of Real Estate Investments
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold 11 properties for an aggregate contract price of $295.6 million, resulting in aggregate gains on sale of $67.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we sold five properties for an aggregate contract price of $3.1 million, resulting in aggregate gains on sale of $0.3 million.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $12.4 million to $52.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $39.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was mainly due to interest of $11.3 million on our $500.0 million of 4.50% per annum Senior Notes which were issued in 2021, as well as higher average balances on our mortgage and Credit Facility debt (resulting largely from the assumption of mortgage debt and borrowings under our Credit Facility to finance the CIM Portfolio Acquisition), partially offset by lower average interest rates. Please see Note 1 — Organization to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details on the CIM Portfolio Acquisition.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the average outstanding balances on our mortgage notes payable were $1.6 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, and our average outstanding balance under our Credit Facility was $315.9 million and $268.2 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the weighted-average interest rates on our mortgage notes payable were 3.81% and 3.98%, respectively, and the weighted-average interest rates on our Credit Facility were 2.51% and 2.79%, respectively. The reduction of the weighted-average interest rate on our Credit Facility during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 is primarily due to lower credit spreads to LIBOR on our Credit Facility after the amendment which occurred on October 1, 2021.
We anticipate that the interest rate on our Credit Facility will increase throughout 2022 as a result of, among other things, recent actions taken by the Federal Reserve Board to increase interest rates and its intention to reduce the amount of assets on its balance sheet. See Item 1.A Risk Factors for additional information.
Other Income
Other income was $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $44,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in other income during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to the settlement of $0.9 million of liens incurred on our Prairie Towne property in the three months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of a settlement with the lien holder during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Gain on Non-Designated Derivative
Gain on non-designated derivatives for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $2.3 million, and was related to an embedded derivative on the common stock issued in connection with the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. The stock was issued in the three months ended March 31, 2022. No gain on non-designated derivatives was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2021. For additional information, see Note 8 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Our cash flows provided by or used in operating activities is affected by the rental income generated from leasing activity, including leasing activity due to acquisitions and dispositions, restricted cash we are required to maintain, the timing of interest payments, the receipt of scheduled rent payments and the level of property operating expenses. Our cash flows from operating activities were $104.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and consisted of net loss of $4.6 million, adjusted for non-cash items of $90.5 million, including depreciation and amortization of tangible and intangible real estate assets, amortization of deferred financing costs, amortization of mortgage premiums on borrowings, share-based compensation, gain on non-designated derivatives, gain on sale of real estate investments and impairment charges. In addition, cash flows from operating activities were impacted by a decrease in the straight-line rent receivable of $2.6 million, a decrease in deferred rent of $1.4 million, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $18.4 million and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $4.4 million.
Our cash flows from operating activities were $65.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and consisted of net loss of $5.2 million, adjusted for non-cash items of $76.9 million, including depreciation and amortization of tangible and intangible real estate assets, amortization of deferred financing costs, amortization of mortgage premiums on borrowings, share-
65
based compensation, gain on sale of real estate investments and impairment charges. In addition, cash flows from operating activities were impacted by an increase in the straight-line rent receivable of $3.5 million, a decrease in deferred rent of $0.2 million, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $0.7 million and an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $3.8 million.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities

These cash inflows were partially offset by cash dividends paid to holders of our Class A common stock of $55.3 million, payments on our Credit Facility of $25.0 million, payments on our mortgages of $10.1 million, cash dividends paid to holders of our Series A Preferred Stock (as defined below) of $7.4 million, cash dividends paid to holders of our Series C Preferred Stock (as defined below) of $4.2 million and payments of deferred financing costs of $2.9 million.
The net cash provided by financing activities was $43.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Cash inflows consisted primarily of net proceeds from mortgage notes payable, primarily resulting from the issuance of net lease mortgage notes and related mortgage payoffs, of $130.3 million, net proceeds from the issuance of Class A common stock of $77.0 million, net proceeds from the issuance of 7.50% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”) of $2.2 million and net proceeds from the issuance of 7.375% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series C Preferred Stock”) of $25.6 million. These cash inflows were partially offset by payments on our Credit Facility of $125.1 million, cash dividends paid to holders of our Class A common stock of $46.3 million, cash dividends paid to holders of our Series A Preferred Stock of $7.4 million and cash dividends paid to holders of our Series C Preferred Stock of $2.3 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal demands for cash are to fund operating and administrative expenses, debt service obligations, dividends on our Class A common stock (including our shares subject to repurchase), dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock, dividends on our Series C Preferred Stock, distributions on our LTIP Units and distributions for limited partnership units that correspond to shares of our Class A common stock, and capital expenditures. In addition, our demand for cash includes the purchase of additional properties.
CIM Portfolio Acquisition
In December 2021, we signed a purchase and sale agreement for the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, which consists of 79 multi-tenant retail centers and two single-tenant properties, for a contract purchase price of $1.3 billion. We closed on the properties of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition in multiple stages as follows:
•In the three months ended March 31, 2022, we closed on the acquisition of 56 of these properties for an aggregate contract purchase price of $801.1 million. We funded the closing of these properties with cash of $728.4 million, including $378.0 million of borrowings under our Credit Facility, the assumption of $19.3 million of existing mortgage debt and the issuance of 6,450,107 shares of our Class A common stock, representing consideration of $50.0 million, for accounting purposes, in value at issuance ($53.4 million of value subject to repurchase), which were issued at a weighted-average price of $7.75 per share in value at issuance ($8.28 per share of value subject to repurchase).
•In the three months ended June 30, 2022, we closed on 24 additional properties from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition for an aggregate contract purchase price of $452.8 million in three closings. The acquisitions were funded with the assumption of $294.5 million of fixed-rate mortgage debt, $128.2 million of $135.0 million of borrowings under the Credit Facility, the application of $23.8 million of the Company’s $40.0 million deposit and the remainder with cash on hand. The assumed mortgages bear stated interest rates between 3.65% and 4.62% and mature between April 2023 and September 2033.

•We closed on the one remaining property from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition on July 7, 2022 for a contract purchase price of $71.1 million. The acquisition was funded with the assumption of $39.0 million of fixed-rate mortgage debt, the application of the remaining $16.2 million of our $40.0 million deposit, and the remainder with cash on hand (including $6.8 million of previous borrowings under the Credit Facility). The assumed mortgage bears a stated interest rate of 4.05% and matures in May 2024 (see Note 16 — Subsequent Events).
•The aggregate contract purchase prices above do not include contingent consideration relating to leasing activity at each respective acquired property for a six-month period subsequent to the respective closing dates of each acquired property. We paid $10.2 million and $13.3 million for such contingent consideration in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and three months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, we accrued $10.8 million of contingent consideration based on leases executed as of June 30, 2022. We paid $16.1 million in July 2022, which includes the accrual for $10.8 million, and additional amounts may be due for leases executed through January 2023 (six months following the acquisition date of the final property of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition).
The cash used in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, including the one closing subsequent to June 30, 2022, consisted of $420.5 million, which included net proceeds from the approximately $260.7 million sale of our Sanofi property, the remaining proceeds from our Senior Notes offering, and $513.0 million from borrowings under our Credit Facility. In addition, we acquired 10 additional single-tenant properties and one additional multi-tenant property in the six months ended June 30, 2022 for an aggregate contract purchase price of $58.4 million, which was funded entirely with cash on hand. Of the 91 properties acquired in the six months ended June 30, 2022, 60 properties were added to the borrowing base of the Credit Facility.
Short-Term Material Cash Requirements
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $69.4 million and $214.9 million, respectively.
We expect to fund our future short-term material cash requirements over the next year through a combination of cash on hand, net cash provided by our property operations and borrowings under our Credit Facility. We may also generate additional liquidity through property dispositions and, to the extent available, secured or unsecured borrowings including the issuance of additional Senior Notes or similar securities, issuances under our “at the market” equity offering program for Class A common stock (the “Class A Common Stock ATM Program”), our “at the market” equity offering program for Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock ATM Program”), our “at the market” equity offering program for Series C Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock ATM Program”), as well as other offerings of debt or equity securities.
Deleveraging Initiative
In May 2021, we began a deleveraging initiative to reduce our net debt relative to our earnings. We hope to achieve this initiative by:
•reducing outstanding debt over time;
•funding acquisitions through cash on hand rather than proceeds from debt, or at lower debt-to-equity ratios;
•raising equity to fund acquisitions and pay down debt; and
•increasing revenues through external and internal growth factors such as property acquisitions and multi-tenant leasing activity.
The CIM Portfolio Acquisition has increased our leverage in the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to prior periods. We expect that our leverage will further increase in the third quarter of 2022 as a result of assuming an additional mortgage to finance the remainder of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. We plan to continue with our deleveraging strategy now that the CIM Portfolio Acquisition is complete. We may, however, issue additional Senior Notes or similar securities in the future particularly as we revise our capital structure following the CIM Portfolio Acquisition in a similar fashion as we may add or refinance existing mortgage debt or indebtedness under our Credit Facility. We have additionally identified certain assets acquired in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, and other properties in our portfolio, that we intend to market for sale, the net proceeds of which, after taxes and selling costs, will be used to repay debt. We have entered into an agreement to dispose of one such multi-tenant property acquired in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition for a contract sales price of $10.4 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded $3.5 million of impairment charges on this property. There is no assurance that we will be able to enter into further agreements to sell other assets on acceptable terms and conditions, or at all.
Mortgage Notes Payable, Credit Facility and Senior Notes — June 30, 2022
As of June 30, 2022, we had $1.8 billion of gross mortgage notes payable outstanding, $500.0 million of gross Senior Notes outstanding and $488.0 million outstanding under our Credit Facility. Of our total gross debt, 82.5% is fixed-rate and 17.5% is variable-rate.
67
As of June 30, 2022, our net debt to gross asset value ratio was 50.6%. We define net debt as the principal amount of our outstanding debt (excluding the effect of deferred financing costs, net and mortgage premiums and discounts, net) less cash and cash equivalents. Gross asset value is defined as total assets plus accumulated depreciation and amortization. As of June 30, 2022, the weighted-average effective interest rates on the mortgage notes payable, Credit Facility and Senior Notes were 3.82%, 3.43% and 4.50%, respectively.
We assumed $313.8 million in fixed rate mortgage debt in the six months ended June 30, 2022 related to the closing of 80 properties of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, which bear interest at stated rates between 3.65% and 4.62%, maturing between April 2023 and September 2033. In addition, we assumed $39.0 million of mortgage debt secured by the final property of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition on July 7, 2022.
Based on debt outstanding as of June 30, 2022, future anticipated principal payments on our mortgage notes payable for the remainder of 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2023 are $3.1 million and $289.8 million, respectively. We do not anticipate the need to make any significant additional principal payments for the remainder of 2022, but for the year ended December 31, 2023, we anticipate the need to repay or refinance $288.3 million of the total $352.8 million we have assumed from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition in 2022 (including the additional $39.0 million fixed-rate mortgage assumed subsequent to June 30, 2022, see Note 16 — Subsequent Events for additional information). In light of the current direction of interest rates, the rates we pay on debt which we refinance may be higher than the rates on debt we assume.
As of June 30, 2022, we had $5.1 billion in gross real estate assets, at cost, and we had pledged approximately $3.0 billion in gross real estate assets, at cost, as collateral for our mortgage notes payable. In addition, approximately $2.0 billion of these gross real estate investments, at cost, were included in the unencumbered asset pool comprising the borrowing base under the Credit Facility which had a total borrowing capacity thereunder of $526.6 million. Therefore, this real estate is only available to serve as collateral or satisfy other debts and obligations if it is first removed from the borrowing base under the Credit Facility, which would reduce the amount available to us on the Credit Facility.
Net Lease Mortgage Notes
On June 3, 2021, through subsidiaries, we issued $318.0 million aggregate principal amount of Net Lease Mortgage Notes (the “2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes”). The 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes are cross-collateralized with the $242.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Net Lease Mortgage Notes issued through subsidiaries in 2019 (the “2019 Net Lease Mortgage Notes” and, together with the 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes, the “Notes”). The Notes were issued using a master trust structure, which enables additional series of notes to be issued upon the contribution of additional properties to the collateral pool without the need to structure a new securitization transaction. Any new notes that are so issued will be cross-collateralized with the Notes.
The 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes were issued in six classes: Class A-1 (AAA), Class A-2 (AAA), Class A-3 (A), Class A-4 (A), Class B-1 (BBB) and Class B-2 (BBB). The Class A-1 (AAA) Notes are rated AAA (sf) by Standard & Poors and are comprised of $55.0 million initial principal amount of 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes with an anticipated repayment date in May 2028 and an interest rate of 2.21%. The Class A-2 (AAA) Notes are rated AAA (sf) by Standard & Poors and are comprised of $95.0 million initial principal amount of 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes with an anticipated repayment date in May 2031 and an interest rate of 2.79%. The Class A-3 (A) Notes are rated A (sf) by Standard & Poors and are comprised of $35.0 million initial principal amount of 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes with an anticipated repayment date in May 2028 and an interest rate of 3.03%. The Class A-4 (A) Notes are rated A (sf) by Standard & Poors and are comprised of $55.0 million initial principal amount of 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes with an anticipated repayment date in May 2031 and an interest rate of 3.60%.
The Class B Notes are currently retained by the OP and are eliminated upon consolidation, and are therefore not presented in our consolidated financial statements. The Class B Notes may be sold to unaffiliated third parties in the future. The Class B-1 (BBB) Notes are rated BBB (sf) by Standard & Poors and are comprised of $30.0 million initial principal amount of 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes with an anticipated repayment date in May 2028 and an interest rate of 4.02%. The Class B-2 (BBB) Notes are rated BBB (sf) by Standard & Poors and are comprised of $48.0 million initial principal amount of 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes with an anticipated repayment date in May 2031 and an interest rate of 4.58%. The 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes have a rated final payment date in May 2051.
The 2019 Net Lease Mortgage Notes were issued in two classes, Class A-1 (AAA) and Class A-2 (A). The Class A-1 (AAA) Notes are rated AAA (sf) by Standard & Poors and are comprised of $121.0 million initial principal amount of 2019 Net Lease Mortgage Notes with an anticipated repayment date in May 2026 and an interest rate of 3.78%. The Class A-2 (A) Notes are rated A (sf) by Standard & Poors and are comprised of $121.0 million initial principal amount of 2019 Net Lease Mortgage Notes with an anticipated repayment date in May 2029 and an interest rate of 4.46%. The 2019 Net Lease Mortgage Notes have a rated final payment date in May 2049.
68
The Notes may be redeemed at any time prior to their anticipated repayment date subject to payment of a make-whole premium. If any class of Notes is not paid in full at its respective anticipated repayment date, additional interest will begin to accrue on those Notes.
Senior Notes
The Senior Notes were issued on October 7, 2021 and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed (the “Senior Note Guarantees”) on a joint and several basis by the subsidiaries of the Company and the OP that are guarantors under the Credit Facility. Subject to certain exceptions, each future subsidiary of these entities that subsequently guarantees indebtedness under the Credit Facility, any other syndicated loan facility or certain capital markets indebtedness, in each case, will be required to execute a Senior Note Guarantee.
As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with all the operating and financial covenants under the Senior Notes and mortgages.
Credit Facility — Terms and Capacity
As of June 30, 2022 we had $488.0 million outstanding under the Credit Facility. We did not have any amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2021.
On October 1, 2021, we entered into an amendment and restatement of the Credit Facility with BMO Harris Bank N.A., as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto. The aggregate total commitments under the Credit Facility were increased to $815.0 million, including a $50.0 million sublimit for letters of credit and a $55.0 million sublimit for swingline loans. The Credit Facility includes an uncommitted “accordion feature” permitting us to increase the commitments under the Credit Facility by up to an additional $435.0 million, subject to obtaining commitments from new lenders or additional commitments from participating lenders and certain customary conditions.
The Credit Facility is supported by a pool of eligible unencumbered properties that are owned by the subsidiaries of the OP that serve as Guarantors. We may add or remove properties to or from this pool so long as at any time there are at least 15 eligible unencumbered properties with a value of at least $300.0 million, among other things. The amount available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility depends on the amount outstanding thereunder relative to the aggregate commitments; however, the amount we may borrow under the Credit Facility will be limited by financial maintenance covenants. At the execution of the amendment and restatement of the Credit Facility, $186.2 million was outstanding under the Credit Facility. This amount was subsequently repaid with a portion of the net proceeds of the Senior Notes.
The Credit Facility requires payments of interest only prior to maturity. At the execution of the amendment and restatement of the Credit Facility the interest rate was LIBOR plus 1.90% per annum. Following the amendment of the Credit Facility, borrowings bear interest at either (i) the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Facility) plus an applicable spread ranging from 0.45% to 1.05%, or (ii) LIBOR plus an applicable spread ranging from 1.45% to 2.05%, in each case depending on our consolidated leverage ratio. These spreads reflect a reduction from the previously applicable spreads. In addition, pursuant to the amendment to the Credit Facility, (i) if either we or the OP achieves an investment grade credit rating, the OP can elect for the spread to be based on the credit rating of ours or the OP, and (ii) the “floor” on LIBOR was decreased from 0.25% to 0%. The Credit Facility includes provisions related to the anticipated transition from LIBOR to an alternative benchmark rate. As of June 30, 2022, we have elected to use LIBOR for all our borrowings under the Credit Facility.
The Credit Facility matures on April 1, 2026, subject to our right, subject to customary conditions, to extend the maturity date by up to two additional six-month terms. Borrowings under the Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to customary LIBOR breakage costs.
As of June 30, 2022 we were in compliance with the operating and financial covenants under the Credit Facility.
Of the 91 properties acquired in the six months ended June 30, 2022, 60 properties were added to the borrowing base of the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2022 we had $38.6 million available for future borrowings.
See Note 5 — Credit Facility to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding our Credit Facility.
LIBOR Exposure
In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (which regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. As a result, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred alternative to LIBOR in derivatives and other financial contracts. On November 30, 2020, the Financial Conduct Authority announced a partial extension of this deadline, indicating its intention to cease the publication of the one-week and two-month USD LIBOR settings immediately following December 31, 2021, and the remaining USD LIBOR settings immediately following the LIBOR publication on June 30, 2023.
69
While we expect LIBOR to be available in substantially its current form until at least the end of June 2023, it is possible that LIBOR will become unavailable prior to that time. To transition from LIBOR under the Credit Facility, we will either utilize the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Facility) or an alternative benchmark established by the agent in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility, which will be SOFR if available or an alternate benchmark that is being widely used in the market at that time as selected by the agent.
Acquisitions and Dispositions — Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
One of our primary uses of cash during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was for acquisitions of properties.
During the three months ended June 30, 2022 we acquired 32 properties for an aggregate purchase price of $495.7 million, including capitalized acquisition costs. The acquisitions during the three months ended June 30, 2022 include 24 properties from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. The acquisition of the 24 properties from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition were funded with the assumption of $294.5 million of fixed-rate mortgage debt, $128.2 million of $135.0 million of borrowings under the Credit Facility, the application of $23.8 million of our $40 million deposit, $10.8 million of contingent consideration to be paid in the second half of 2022 and the remainder with cash on hand. The remaining eight properties acquired in the three months ended June 30, 2022 were funded entirely with cash on hand.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we acquired 91 properties for an aggregate purchase price of $1.4 billion, including capitalized acquisition costs. The acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2022 include 80 properties from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. The acquisition of the 80 properties from the CIM Portfolio Acquisition was funded with the assumption of $313.7 million of existing mortgage debt, $513.0 million of borrowings under the Credit Facility, the application of $23.8 million of our $40 million deposit, the issuance of 6,450,107 shares of our Class A common stock, representing consideration of $50.0 million in value at issuance ($53.4 million of value subject to repurchase), which were issued at a weighted-average price of $7.75 per share in value at issuance ($8.28 per share of value subject to repurchase), $10.8 million of contingent consideration to be paid in the second half of 2022 and the remainder with cash on hand. The remaining 11 properties acquired in the six months ended June 30, 2022 were funded entirely with cash on hand.
During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we sold five properties, for an aggregate contract sales price of $30.4 million, excluding disposition related costs. Of the five properties sold in the three months ended June 30, 2022, two were formerly encumbered under the 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes and two were formerly part of the unencumbered asset pool comprising the Credit Facility. The proceeds from these dispositions were used to fund the repayment of $25.0 million of amounts outstanding under our Credit Facility.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold 11 properties for an aggregate contract sales price of $295.6 million excluding disposition related costs. These dispositions included the sale of three office buildings leased to Sanofi S.A. for a contract purchase price of $260.7 million (the “Sanofi Sale”). The net proceeds of $254.5 million from the Sanofi Sale were used to partially fund the closing of the first tranche of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition as discussed above. Of the 10 other properties sold in the six months ended June 30, 2022, one was formerly encumbered under the CMBS 2020 mortgage, two were formerly encumbered under the 2021 Net Lease Mortgage Notes and four were formerly part of the unencumbered asset pool comprising the Credit Facility. The proceeds from these dispositions were used to fund the repayment of $25.0 million of amounts outstanding under our Credit Facility.
Acquisitions and Dispositions — Subsequent to June 30, 2022
Subsequent to June 30, 2022 we acquired the final property of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, with a contract purchase price of $71.1 million, excluding acquisition costs. We have entered into a definitive purchase and sale agreement to acquire an additional single-tenant property for a contract purchase price of approximately $0.3 million. The purchase and sale agreement is subject to conditions, and there can be no assurance we will complete this acquisition on its contemplated terms, or at all. We anticipate primarily using cash on hand, which may include proceeds from our ATM Programs, and, if necessary, proceeds from borrowings under our Credit Facility, to fund the consideration required to complete this acquisition.
Subsequent to June 30, 2022, we disposed of three properties for an aggregate contract sales price of $3.9 million. We have entered into six purchase and sale agreements to dispose of six properties for an aggregate contract sales price of $97.8 million. We have also entered into four non-binding letters of intent to dispose of four properties for an aggregate contract sales price of $1.7 million. The purchase and sales agreements and non-binding letters of intent are subject to conditions, and there can be no assurance we will complete any of these dispositions on their contemplated terms, or at all. Two of the purchase and sale agreements relate to properties acquired in the CIM Portfolio Acquisition, one of which was impaired in the three months ended June 30, 2022 for $3.5 million.
ATM Programs
We sold 3,618 shares of Class A common stock through our Class A Common Stock ATM Program during the three months ended June 30, 2022, which did not generate material proceeds. We sold 2,765,329 shares of Class A common stock
70
through our Class A Common Stock ATM Program during the six months ended June 30, 2022, which generated $24.9 million of gross proceeds, and net proceeds of $24.6 million after commissions, fees and other offering costs incurred of $0.4 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we did not sell any shares of Series A Preferred Stock under the Series A Preferred Stock Program.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold 677 shares of Series C Preferred Stock under the Series C Preferred Stock Program.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan
Our distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) allows stockholders who have elected to participate in the DRIP to have dividends payable with respect to all or a portion of their shares of Class A common stock reinvested in additional shares of Class A common stock. Shares issued pursuant to the DRIP are, at our election, either (i) acquired directly from us, by issuing new shares, at a price based on the average of the high and low sales prices of Class A common stock on Nasdaq on the date of reinvestment, or (ii) acquired through open market purchases by the plan administrator at a price based on the weighted-average of the actual prices paid for all of the shares of Class A common stock purchased by the plan administrator with all participants’ reinvested dividends for the related quarter, less a per share processing fee. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, all shares acquired by participants pursuant to the DRIP were acquired through open market purchases by the plan administrator and not issued directly to stockholders by us.
Capital Expenditures and Construction in Progress
We invest in capital expenditures to enhance and maintain the value of our properties. We define revenue enhancing capital expenditures as improvements to our properties that we believe will result in higher income generation over time. Capital expenditures for maintenance are generally necessary, non-revenue generating improvements that extend the useful life of the property and are less frequent in nature. By providing this metric, we believe we are presenting useful information for investors that can help them assess the components of our capital expenditures that are expected to either grow or maintain our current revenue. Detail related to our capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2022 is as follows:
| Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 | ||||||||||||||||||||

Also, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $2.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of construction in progress which is included in the prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This section discusses the non-GAAP financial measures we use to evaluate our performance, including Funds from Operations (“FFO”), Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) and NOI. While NOI is a property-level measure, AFFO is based on our total performance and therefore reflects the impact of other items not specifically associated with NOI such as interest expense, general and administrative expenses and operating fees to related parties. Additionally, NOI as defined herein, does not reflect an adjustment for straight-line rent but AFFO does include this adjustment. A description of these non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which is net income (loss), is provided below. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to exclude the proportionate share of the non-controlling interest to arrive at FFO, AFFO and NOI attributable to stockholders.
Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations
Funds from Operations
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), an industry trade group, has promulgated a performance measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. FFO is not equivalent to net income or loss as determined under GAAP.
71
We calculate FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established over time by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as restated in a White Paper and approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT effective in December 2018 (the “White Paper”). The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from sales of certain real estate assets, gain and losses from change in control and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity. Adjustments for consolidated partially-owned entities (including our OP) and equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates are made to arrive at our proportionate share of FFO attributable to our stockholders. Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT’s definition.
The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, and straight-line amortization of intangibles, which implies that the value of a real estate asset diminishes predictably over time. We believe that, because real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, including inflation, interest rates, unemployment and consumer spending, presentations of operating results for a REIT using historical accounting for depreciation and certain other items may be less informative. Historical accounting for real estate involves the use of GAAP. Any other method of accounting for real estate such as the fair value method cannot be construed to be any more accurate or relevant than the comparable methodologies of real estate valuation found in GAAP. Nevertheless, we believe that the use of FFO, which excludes the impact of real estate related depreciation and amortization, among other things, provides a more complete understanding of our performance to investors and to management, and when compared year over year, reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which may not be immediately apparent from net income.
Adjusted Funds from Operations
In calculating AFFO, we start with FFO, then we exclude certain income or expense items from AFFO that we consider to be more reflective of investing activities, such as non-cash income and expense items and the income and expense effects of other activities that are not a fundamental attribute of our day to day operating business plan, such as amounts related to litigation arising out of the merger with American Realty Capital-Retail Centers of America, Inc. in February 2017 (the “RCA Merger”). These amounts include legal costs incurred as a result of the litigation, portions of which have been and may in the future be reimbursed under insurance policies maintained by us. Insurance reimbursements are deducted from AFFO in the period of reimbursement. We believe that excluding the litigation costs arising out of the RCA Merger helps to provide a better understanding of the operating performance of our business. Other income and expense items also include early extinguishment of debt and unrealized gains and losses, which may not ultimately be realized, such as gains or losses on derivative instruments and gains and losses on investments. In addition, by excluding non-cash income and expense items such as amortization of above-market and below-market leases intangibles, amortization of deferred financing costs, straight-line rent, and share-based compensation related to restricted shares, the 2018 OPP and 2021 OPP from AFFO, we believe we provide useful information regarding those income and expense items which have a direct impact on our ongoing operating performance.
In calculating AFFO, we exclude certain expenses which under GAAP are characterized as operating expenses in determining operating net income (loss). All paid and accrued merger, acquisition and transaction related fees and certain other expenses negatively impact our operating performance during the period in which expenses are incurred or properties are acquired and will also have negative effects on returns to investors, but are not reflective of our on-going performance. In addition, legal fees and expense associated with COVID-19-related lease disputes involving certain tenants negatively impact our operating performance but are not reflective of our on-going performance. Further, under GAAP, certain contemplated non-cash fair value and other non-cash adjustments are considered operating non-cash adjustments to net income (loss). In addition, as discussed above, we view gains and losses from fair value adjustments as items which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized and not reflective of ongoing operations and are therefore typically adjusted for when assessing operating performance. Excluding income and expense items detailed above from our calculation of AFFO provides information consistent with management’s analysis of our operating performance. Additionally, fair value adjustments, which are based on the impact of current market fluctuations and underlying assessments of general market conditions, but can also result from operational factors such as rental and occupancy rates, may not be directly related or attributable to our current operating performance. By excluding such changes that may reflect anticipated and unrealized gains or losses, we believe AFFO provides useful supplemental information. By providing AFFO, we believe we are presenting useful information that can be used, among other things, to assess our performance without the impact of transactions or other items that are not related to our portfolio of properties. AFFO presented by us may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs that define AFFO differently. Furthermore, we believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of our operating results, AFFO should be examined in conjunction with net income (loss) as presented in our consolidated financial statements. AFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of our liquidity or ability to pay dividends. FFO and AFFO may include income from lease termination fees, which is recorded in revenue from tenants in the consolidated statements of operations.
72
Accounting Treatment of Rent Deferrals/Abatements
The majority of the concessions granted to our tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic have been rent deferrals or temporary rent abatements with the original lease term unchanged and collection of deferred rent deemed probable (see the “Overview - Management Update on the Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic” section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for additional information). As a result of relief granted by the FASB and SEC related to lease modification accounting, rental revenue used to calculate Net Income and NAREIT FFO has not been, and we do not expect it to be, significantly impacted by these types of deferrals. In addition, since we currently believe that these deferral amounts are collectable, we have excluded from the increase in straight-line rent for AFFO purposes the amounts recognized under GAAP relating to these types of rent deferrals. Conversely, for abatements where contractual rent has been reduced, the reduction in revenue is reflected over the remaining lease term for accounting purposes but represents a permanent reduction in revenue and we have, accordingly, reduced our AFFO. For a detailed discussion of our revenue recognition policy, including details related to the relief granted by the FASB and SEC, see Note 2 — Significant Accounting Polices to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

___________
(1)FFO and AFFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 includes income from lease modification/termination revenue of $5.7 million and $10.2 million, respectively, and the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 includes income from lease modification/termination revenue of $0.8 million and $1.3 million, respectively, which is recorded in revenue from tenants in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Revenue Recognition to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
(2)Includes primarily prepayment costs incurred in connection with early debt extinguishment as well as litigation costs related to the RCA Merger.
(3)Reflects legal costs incurred related to disputes with tenants due to store closures or other challenges resulting from COVID-19. The tenants involved in these disputes had not recently defaulted on their rent and, prior to the second and third quarters of 2020, had recently exhibited a pattern of regular payment. Based on the tenants involved in these matters, their history of rent payments, and the impact of the pandemic on current economic conditions, we view these costs as COVID-19-related and separable from our ordinary general and administrative expenses related to tenant defaults. We engaged counsel in connection with these issues separate and distinct from counsel we typically engage for tenant defaults. The amount reflects what we believe to be only those incremental legal costs above what we typically incur for tenant-related dispute issues. We may continue to incur these COVID-19 related legal costs in the future.
(4)Represents amounts related to deferred rent pursuant to lease negotiations which qualify for FASB relief for which rent was deferred but not reduced. These amounts are included in the straight-line rent receivable on our consolidated balance sheet but are considered to be earned revenue attributed to the current period for which rent was deferred for purposes of AFFO as they are expected to be collected. Accordingly, when the deferred amounts are collected, the amounts reduce AFFO. For rent abatements (including those qualified for FASB relief), where contractual rent has been reduced, the reduction in revenue is reflected over the remaining lease term for accounting purposes but represents a permanent reduction in revenue and we have, accordingly reduced our AFFO.
(5)In the six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized a gain of $2.3 million related to the change in fair value of an embedded derivative within the purchase and sale agreement of the CIM Portfolio Acquisition. We do not consider non-cash gains or losses for embedded derivative fair value
73
adjustments to be capital in nature, nor do we consider them a part of recurring operations. Accordingly, such amounts are excluded for AFFO purposes. See Note 8 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information.
(6)Includes expense related to the amortization of our restricted common shares and LTIP Units related to our multi-year outperformance agreements for all periods presented.
(7)We issued $500.0 million in Senior Notes in October 2021. The Senior Notes pay semiannual interest which we accrue interest over time for GAAP purposes. Accordingly, to better reflect our operating performance, beginning with the year ended December 31, 2021 and for all periods thereafter, we have elected to remove the impact of the change in accrued interest from the calculation of AFFO, which was previously included in this line item. The impact to AFFO for the removal of the change in accrued interest included in this line for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was an increase to AFFO of $535,000 and $540,000, respectively.
(8)Included in other income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was a gain of $0.9 million on prior liens incurred on our Prairie Towne property as a result of a settlement with the lien holder during the three months ended June 30, 2022. Management does not consider this gain to be part of our normal operating performance and has, accordingly, reduced our AFFO for this amount.
Net Operating Income
NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure used by us to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate. NOI is equal to total revenues, excluding contingent purchase price consideration, less property operating and maintenance expense. NOI excludes all other items of expense and income included in the financial statements in calculating net income (loss). We believe NOI provides useful and relevant information because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and presents such items on an unleveraged basis. We use NOI to assess and compare property level performance and to make decisions concerning the operation of the properties. Further, we believe NOI is useful to investors as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating expenses and acquisition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income (loss).
NOI excludes certain items included in calculating net income (loss) in order to provide results that are more closely related to a property’s results of operations. For example, interest expense is not necessarily linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset. In addition, depreciation and amortization, because of historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, may distort operating performance at the property level. NOI presented by us may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of our operating results, NOI should be examined in conjunction with net income (loss) as presented in our consolidated financial statements. NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of our liquidity or ability to pay dividends.

Dividends and Distributions
We pay dividends on our Class A common stock, on a quarterly basis, at an annual rate of $0.85. The amount of dividends payable on our Class A common stock to our common stock holders is determined by our board of directors and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for dividends, our financial condition, provisions in our Credit Facility or other agreements that may restrict our ability to pay dividends, capital expenditure requirements, as applicable, requirements of Maryland law and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our status as a REIT. We anticipate dividends will continue to be paid on a quarterly basis in arrears on the 15th day of the first month following the end of each fiscal quarter (unless otherwise specified) to Class A common stockholders of record on the record date for such payment.
Dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock accrue in an amount equal to $1.875 per share each year, which is equivalent to the rate of 7.50% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share per annum. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day of each of January, April, July and October of each year (or, if not a business day, the next succeeding business day) to holders of record on the applicable record date.
Dividends on our Series C Preferred Stock accrue in an amount equal to $1.844 per share each year, which is equivalent to the rate of 7.375% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share per annum. Dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock are payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day of each of January, April, July and October of each year (or, if not a business day, the next succeeding business day) to holders of record on the applicable record date. The first dividend for the Series C Preferred Stock was paid on April 15, 2021 and represented an accrual for more than a full quarter, covering the period from December 18, 2020 to March 31, 2021.
Our Credit Facility contains provisions restricting our ability to pay distributions, including paying cash dividends on equity securities (including the Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock). We are generally permitted to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, and Class A common stock and other distributions for any fiscal quarter in an aggregate amount of up to 105% of annualized Modified Funds from Operations (“MFFO”, as defined in the Credit Facility) for a look-back period of four consecutive fiscal quarters but only if, as of the last day of the period, after giving effect to the payment of those dividends and distributions, we are able to satisfy a maximum leverage ratio and maintain a combination of cash, cash equivalents and amounts available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility of not less than $60 million. If these conditions are not satisfied, the applicable threshold percentage of MFFO will be 95% instead of 105%. If applicable, during the continuance of an event of default under the Credit Facility, we may not pay dividends or other distributions in excess of the amount necessary for us to maintain our status as a REIT.
We may repurchase shares if we satisfy a maximum leverage ratio after giving effect to the repurchase and also have a combination of cash, cash equivalents and amounts available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility of not less than $40.0 million.
Notwithstanding the previous amendments, there is no assurance that the lenders will consent to any additional amendments to the Credit Facility that may become necessary to maintain compliance with the Credit Facility.
76
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used to pay dividends on our Class A common stock, dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock, dividends on our Series C Preferred Stock, distributions on our LTIP Units and distributions for our limited partnership units that correspond to shares of our Class A common stock was generated from cash flows provided by operations. We have, in prior periods, funded dividends from other sources. If we need to identify financing sources other than operating cash flows to fund dividends at their current level, there can be no assurance that other sources will be available on favorable terms, or at all.
Complying with the restriction on the payment of dividends and other distributions in our Credit Facility may limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness and use cash that would otherwise be available to us. Funding dividends from borrowings restricts the amount we can borrow for property acquisitions and investments. Using proceeds from the sale of assets or the issuance of our Class A common stock, Series A Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or other equity securities to fund dividends rather than invest in assets will likewise reduce the amount available to invest. Funding dividends from the sale of additional securities could also dilute our stockholders.
The following table shows the sources for the payment of dividends to stockholders, including dividends on unvested restricted shares and other dividends and distributions for the periods indicated:

Loan Obligations
The payment terms of certain of our mortgage loan obligations require principal and interest payments monthly, with all unpaid principal and interest due at maturity. Our loan agreements stipulate that we comply with specific reporting covenants. As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the debt covenants under our loan agreements, including our Senior Notes and Credit Facility.
Election as a REIT
We elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), effective for our taxable year ended December 31, 2013. We believe that, commencing with such taxable year, we have been organized and have operated in a manner so that we qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code. We intend to continue to operate in such a manner, but can provide no assurances that we will operate in a manner so as to remain qualified as a REIT. To continue to qualify for taxation as a REIT, we must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (which does not equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP), determined without regard for the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, and must comply with a number of other organizational and operational requirements. If we continue to qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal corporate income tax on the portion of our REIT taxable income that we distribute to our stockholders. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and properties, as well as federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income.
77
Inflation
We may be adversely impacted by inflation on the leases that do not contain indexed escalation provisions, or those leases which have escalations at rates which do not exceed or approximate current inflation rates. As of June 30, 2022, the increase to the 12-month CPI for all items, as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, was 9.1%. To help mitigate the adverse impact of inflation, approximately 61.6% of our leases with our tenants contain rent escalation provisions which increase the cash that is due under these leases over time by an average of 1.0% per year. These provisions generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases either at fixed rates or indexed escalations (based on the Consumer Price Index or other measures). Approximately 59.3% are fixed-rate, 2.3% are based on the Consumer Price Index and 38.4% do not contain any escalation provisions.
In addition, we may be required to pay costs for maintenance and operation of properties which may adversely impact our results of operations due to potential increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. However, our net leases require the tenant to pay its allocable share of operating expenses, which may include common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and insurance. This may reduce our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. As the costs of general goods and services continue to rise, we may be adversely impacted by increases in general and administrative costs due to overall inflation.
Related-Party Transactions and Agreements
Please see Note 11 — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of the various related party transactions, agreements and fees.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
There has been no material change in our exposure to market risk during the three months ended June 30, 2022. For a discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Refer to “Litigation and Regulatory Matters” in Part I - Item 1 - Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies, in our accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and we direct your attention to those risk factors, other than those disclosed below:
Actual or threatened terrorist attacks and other acts of violence, civilian unrest or war may affect the markets in which we operate our business and our profitability.
We own properties in major metropolitan areas as well as densely populated sub-markets that are susceptible to terrorist attack or damage. Because many of our properties are open to the public, they are exposed to a number of incidents that may take place within or around their premises and that are beyond our control or ability to prevent. If an act of terror, a mass shooting or other violence were to occur, we may lose tenants or be forced to close one or more of our properties for some time. If any of these incidents were to occur, the relevant property could face material damage to its image and the revenues generated therefrom. In addition, we may be exposed to civil liability and be required to indemnify the victims, and our insurance premiums could rise in a material amount.
On February 24, 2022, Russian troops invaded Ukraine starting a military conflict, the length and breadth of which is highly unpredictable. Coupled with existing supply disruptions and changes in Federal Reserve policies on interest rates, this war has exacerbated, and may continue to exacerbate, inflation and significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain disruptions.
Additionally, the U.S., the European Union, and other countries, as well as other public and private actors and companies have imposed sanctions and other penalties on Russia including removing Russian-based financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication payment system and restricted imports of Russian oil, liquefied natural gas and coal. The sanctions have caused supply disruptions in the oil and gas markets and could continue to cause significant increases in energy prices, which could have a material effect on inflation and may trigger a recession in the U.S. and Europe, among other areas.
These and other sanctions that may be imposed as well as the ongoing conflict could further adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and cause further instability negatively impacting liquidity in the capital markets and potentially making it more difficult for us to access additional debt or equity financing on attractive terms in the future.
The United States government has warned of the potential risk of Russian cyberattacks, which may create market volatility and economic uncertainty particularly if these attacks occur and spread to a broad array of countries and networks.
In addition, any actual or threatened terrorist activity or violent criminal acts, including terrorist acts against public institutions or buildings or modes of public transportation (including airlines, trains or buses) could have a negative effect on our business, the value of our properties and our results of operations. More generally, any terrorist attack, other act of violence or war, including armed conflicts, could result in increased volatility in, or damage to, the worldwide financial markets and economy, including demand for properties and availability of financing. Increased economic volatility could adversely affect our tenants’ abilities to conduct their operations profitably or our ability to access capital markets.
Certain provisions in our bylaws and agreements may deter, delay or prevent a change in our control
Provisions contained in our bylaws may deter, delay or prevent a change in control of our board of directors, including, for example, provisions requiring qualifications for an individual to serve as a director and a requirement that certain of our directors be “Managing Directors” and other directors be “Independent Directors”, as defined in our governing documents. As changes occur in the marketplace for corporate governance policies, the provisions may change, be removed or new ones may be added.
