_________________
1.Interest rate with respect to indebtedness is calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed. Interest rates are as of September 30, 2020, which may be different than the interest rates as of December 31, 2019 for corresponding indebtedness.
2.The rate is based on the operating partnership’s leverage ratio. The Company has an option to make an irrevocable election to change the interest rate depending on the Company’s credit rating or a specified base rate plus an applicable margin. As of September 30, 2020, no such election had been made.
3.The Company has a total capacity of $600.0 million under its unsecured revolving credit facility.
4.The maturity date may be extended once for an additional one-year term.
5.The interest rate on the outstanding balance of the term loan was effectively fixed at 2.96% to 3.46% per annum through the use of two interest rate swaps. Term loan B was repaid in the third quarter 2020. Instead of terminating the interest rate swaps on the loan, the swaps were designated under a first payments approach within hedge accounting, where the Company elected to designate a cash flow (LIBOR based interest payments) instead of a specific piece of debt. See Note 9 for details.
6.The interest rate on the outstanding balance of the term loan was effectively fixed at 2.63% to 3.13% per annum through the use of an interest rate swap. Term loan D was repaid in the third quarter 2020. Instead of terminating the interest rate swap on the loan, the swap was designated under a first payments approach within hedge accounting, where the Company elected to designate a cash flow (LIBOR based interest payments) instead of a specific piece of debt. See Note 9 for details.
7.On February 27, 2019, the operating partnership completed an underwritten public offering of $350.0 million of senior notes, which were issued at a discount at 98.663% of par. On June 14, 2019, the operating partnership completed an additional underwritten public offering of $150.0 million of senior notes, which were issued at a premium at 104.544% of par. These notes are treated as a single series of securities with an aggregate principal amount of $500.0 million.
8.On October 3, 2019, the operating partnership completed an underwritten public offering of $400.0 million in senior notes due January 15, 2030. The notes were issued at a discount at 99.268% of par value, with a coupon of 3.25%.
9.The Company owns 51% of the ownership interest in the consolidated joint venture that owns the Hollywood Media Portfolio. On July 30, 2020, the joint venture closed a $900.0 million mortgage loan secured by the Hollywood Media Portfolio. This loan has an initial term of two years from the first payment date, with three one-year extension options, subject to certain requirements. The Company and Blackstone purchased bonds comprising the loan in the amounts of $107.8 million and $12.5 million, respectively. The Company repaid Term loans B ($350.0 million) and D ($125.0 million) and instead of terminating the interest rate swaps on these loans, the swaps were designated under a first payments approach within hedge accounting, rather than a specific piece of debt. Therefore, the interest rate on the outstanding balance has been effectively fixed through the use of interest rate swaps. As of September 30, 2020, fixed LIBOR was 1.76% with respect to $350.0 million and 1.43% with respect to $125.0 million of the Hollywood Media Portfolio loan, respectively.
10.Interest on the full loan amount has been effectively fixed at 3.71% per annum through use of an interest rate swap. See Note 9 for details. On July 31, 2020, the Company paid off the principal outstanding of $64.5 million on the Met Park North mortgage loan.
11.Monthly debt service includes annual debt amortization payments based on a 30-year amortization schedule with a balloon payment at maturity.
12.The Company has the ability to draw up to $414.6 million under the construction loan secured by the One Westside and 10850 Pico properties.
13.The Company has a total capacity of $235.0 million under the Sunset Bronson Studios/ICON/CUE revolving credit facility. This loan is secured by the Company’s Sunset Bronson Studios, ICON and CUE properties. The outstanding borrowings were paid off in the third quarter 2020.
14.The Company owns 55% of the ownership interest in the consolidated joint venture that owns the Hill7 property. The full amount of the loan is shown. This loan bears interest only at 3.38% until November 6, 2026, at which time the interest rate will increase and monthly debt service will include principal payments with a balloon payment at maturity.
15.Excludes deferred financing costs related to establishing the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility and Sunset Bronson Studios/ICON/CUE revolving credit facility, which are reflected in prepaid and other assets, net line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 7 for details.
16.The Company owns 75% of the ownership interest in the joint venture that owns the One Westside and 10850 Pico properties. The full amount of the loan is separately presented on the balance sheet. Monthly debt service includes annual debt amortization payments based on a 10-year amortization schedule with a balloon payment at maturity.
17.This amount relates to debt due to Allianz U.S. Private REIT LP (“Allianz”), the Company’s partner in the joint venture that owns the Ferry Building property. The maturity date may be extended twice for an additional two-year term each.
