INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY TRUST INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company” refers to Industrial Property Trust Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in the annual audited financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) have been omitted. As such, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2019 (“2018 Form 10-K”).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments and eliminations, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in conformity with GAAP.
Asset Sale Transaction
On July 15, 2019, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement and plan of merger (as amended and restated on August 20, 2019, the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which it or its wholly-owned real estate assets will be acquired by an affiliate or affiliates of Prologis, L.P. in an all cash transaction valued at approximately $3.99 billion, subject to certain transaction costs. On August 22, 2019, the Company announced that it had elected to structure the transaction as a sale of substantially all of IPT’s assets excluding its interests in its unconsolidated joint venture partnerships (the “Asset Sale”), and following the Asset Sale, the Company will continue to exist with its remaining assets consisting primarily of its minority ownership interests in its unconsolidated joint venture partnerships (as described in “Note 3”). Subject to the satisfaction of applicable closing conditions (including the receipt of the requisite approval of the Company’s stockholders), the Company expects the Asset Sale to close in January 2020. However, the Company can provide no assurances that the Asset Sale will be completed on the expected timeline or at all. For more information about the Asset Sale, see the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on October 21, 2019.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases (Subtopic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which provides guidance for greater transparency in financial reporting by organizations that lease assets such as real estate, airplanes and manufacturing equipment by requiring such organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The Company adopted the standard when it became effective for the Company, as of the reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, and the Company elected the practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. Under the practical expedients election, the Company was not required to reassess: (i) whether an expired or existing contract meets the definition of a lease; (ii) the lease classification at the adoption date for expired or existing leases; and (iii) whether costs previously capitalized as initial direct costs would continue to be amortized. The practical expedient also allowed the Company to not separate tenant reimbursement revenue from rental revenue if certain criteria were met. The Company assessed the criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental revenue and the related tenant reimbursement revenue are the same and the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. As such, the Company accounts for and presented rental revenue and tenant reimbursement revenue as a single component in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The standard also requires new disclosures within the notes accompanying the condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, in January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-01, “Leases (Subtopic 842): Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842” (“ASU 2018-01”), which updates ASU 2016-02 to include land easements under the updated guidance, including the option to elect the practical expedient discussed above. The Company also adopted ASU 2018-01 when it became effective for the Company, as of the reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, and the Company elected the practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. In addition, in December 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-20, “Narrow—Scope Improvements for Lessors” (“ASU 2018-20”), which updates ASU 2016-02 by providing the option to elect a practical expedient for lessors to exclude sales and other similar taxes from the transaction price of the contract, requires lessors to exclude from revenue and expense lessor costs paid directly to a third party by lessees, and clarifies lessors’ accounting for variable payments related to both lease and nonlease components. The Company adopted ASU 2018-20 when it became effective for the Company, as of the reporting period beginning January

1, 2019, and the Company elected the practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. The adoption of these standards did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities” (“ASU 2017-12”). The purpose of this updated guidance is to better align a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. The transition guidance provides companies with the option of early adopting the new standard using a modified retrospective transition method in any interim period after issuance of the update, or alternatively requires adoption for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 as of the reporting period beginning on January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-01, “Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements” (“ASU 2019-01”), which updates ASU 2016-02 to clarify that entities are not required to provide interim disclosures related to their adoption of ASU 2016-02 as required for other accounting changes and error corrections. The Company adopted this standard in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-02. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In July 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-07, “Codification Updates to SEC Sections” (“ASU 2019-07”), which updates various codification topics by clarifying or improving the disclosure requirements to align with the SEC’s regulations. The Company adopted this standard immediately upon its issuance. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The effective interest rate is calculated based on either: (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) multiplied by a statutory reserve rate plus a margin ranging from 1.40% to 2.30%; or (ii) an alternative base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.40% to 1.30%, each depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The weighted-average effective interest rate is the all-in interest rate, including the effects of interest rate swap agreements relating to $150.0 million in borrowings under this line of credit. As of September 30, 2019, the unused and available portions under the line of credit were both $169.0 million. The line of credit is available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the acquisition and operation of permitted investments.
(2)
The effective interest rate is calculated based on either: (i) LIBOR multiplied by a statutory reserve rate, plus a margin ranging from 1.35% to 2.20%; or (ii) an alternative base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.35% to 1.20%, each depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The weighted-average effective interest rate is the all-in interest rate, including the effects of interest rate swap agreements. This term loan is available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the acquisition and operation of permitted investments.
(3)
The effective interest rate is calculated based on either: (i) LIBOR multiplied by a statutory reserve rate, plus a margin ranging from 1.30% to 2.15%; or (ii) an alternative base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.30% to 1.15%, each depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The weighted-average effective interest rate is the all-in interest rate. This term loan is available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the acquisition and operation of permitted investments.

(4)
Interest rates range from 2.94% to 3.65%, which includes the effects of an interest rate swap agreement relating to a variable-rate mortgage note with an outstanding amount of $94.2 million and $95.6 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The assets and credit of each of the Company’s consolidated properties pledged as collateral for the Company’s mortgage notes are not available to satisfy the Company’s other debt and obligations, unless the Company first satisfies the mortgage notes payable on the respective underlying properties.

The term of the line of credit may be extended pursuant to a one-year extension option, subject to certain conditions.
Debt Covenants
The Company’s line of credit, term loans and mortgage note agreements contain various property-level covenants, including customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, the line of credit and term loan agreements contain certain corporate level financial covenants, including leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, and tangible net worth thresholds. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of September 30, 2019.
Derivative Instruments
To manage interest rate risk for certain of its variable-rate debt, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its risk management strategy. These derivatives are designed to mitigate the risk of future interest rate increases by providing a fixed interest rate for a limited, pre-determined period of time. 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 interest rate swap agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Certain of the Company’s variable-rate borrowings are not hedged, and therefore, to an extent, the Company has on-going exposure to interest rate movements.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and is reclassified into earnings as interest expense for the same period that the hedged transaction affects earnings, which is when the interest expense is recognized on the related debt. The gain or loss on the derivative instrument is presented in the same line item on the condensed consolidated statement of operations as the earnings effect of the hedged item.
Substantially all of the Company’s debt is expected to be repaid in connection with the closing of the Asset Sale. Assuming the debt remains outstanding during the next 12 months, the Company estimates that approximately $3.4 million would be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense related to active effective hedges of existing floating-rate debt.

5. FAIR VALUE
The Company estimates the fair value of its financial instruments using available market information and valuation methodologies it believes to be appropriate for these purposes. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts that the Company would realize upon disposition of its financial instruments.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:
Derivative Instruments. The derivative instruments are interest rate swaps. The interest rate swaps are standard cash flow hedges whose fair value is estimated using market-standard valuation models. Such models involve using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements, which we have concluded are not material to the valuation. Due to the interest rate swaps being unique and not actively traded, the fair value is classified as Level 2. See “Note 4” above for further discussion of the Company’s derivative instruments.
Nonrecurring Fair Value of Financial Measurements
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, tenant receivables, due from/to affiliates, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and distributions payable approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The table below includes fair values for certain of the Company’s financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Reorganization in connection with the Asset Sale
On October 7, 2019, the Company, the Operating Partnership, Industrial Property Advisors Group LLC (the “Sponsor”), the Advisor and Academy Partners Ltd. Liability Company, an affiliate of the Sponsor (“Academy Partners”), entered into a Master Reorganization and Transaction Agreement (the “Master Reorganization Agreement”) to engage in certain transactions to restructure the Sponsor’s and the Advisor’s interests in the Company in connection with and following the Asset Sale.
The Master Reorganization Agreement provides that the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Advisor enter into an amendment to the Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement (2019), dated as of June 12, 2019 (the “Advisory Agreement”), to reduce the advisory fees payable to the Advisor in connection with the Asset Sale by an amount equal to approximately $75.0 million. On October 7, 2019, the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Advisor entered into the Amendment to Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement (2019) (the “Advisory Agreement Amendment”). Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement Amendment, the parties thereto agreed that solely with respect to any disposition involving the properties owned 100% by the Operating Partnership (the “Wholly-Owned Portfolio”) (which disposition includes the Asset Sale), the asset management fee owed to the Advisor under the Advisory Agreement is reduced from 2.5% to 0.6203% of the “Contract Sales Price” (as defined in the Advisory Agreement). The Advisory Agreement Amendment also provides that the Company remains obligated to pay such asset management fee in the event that the Company consummates a disposition involving the Wholly-Owned Portfolio pursuant to one or more definitive agreements entered into during the term of the Advisory Agreement (including the Asset Sale), even if the Advisor is terminated by the Company without cause prior to the closing of such disposition.
The Master Reorganization Agreement also provides that the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Sponsor enter into an amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of Industrial Property Operating Partnership LP (the “Operating Partnership LPA”) to increase the profits interest of the Sponsor in the Operating Partnership. On October 7, 2019, the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Sponsor entered into the Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of Industrial Property Operating Partnership LP (the “LPA Amendment”). The LPA Amendment provides that, effective as of January 1, 2019, distributions of net sales proceeds will be made (i) with respect to the sale by the Company of its Wholly-Owned Portfolio: (A) first, 100% to the holders of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in proportion to their ownership interest in the Operating Partnership until the Company and its stockholders have received cumulative distributions equal to their capital contributions plus a 6.5% per annum return (the “Distribution Hurdle Requirement”), and (B) second, 85% to the holders of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in proportion to their ownership interest in the Operating Partnership and 15% to the Sponsor, as the special limited partner in the Operating Partnership, and (ii) thereafter, assuming the Distribution Hurdle Requirement has been previously met, 65% to the holders of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in proportion to their ownership interest in the Operating Partnership and 35% to the Sponsor, as the special limited partner in the Operating Partnership.  In addition, the LPA Amendment provides that, effective as of January 1, 2019, distributions of cash other than net sales proceeds will be made (i) prior to the sale by the Company of its Wholly-Owned Portfolio, 100% to the holders of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in proportion to their ownership interest in the Operating Partnership, and (ii) thereafter, 65% to the holders of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in proportion to their ownership interest in the Operating Partnership and 35% to the Sponsor, as the special limited partner in the Operating Partnership.
The Master Reorganization Agreement also provides that, prior to the closing of the Asset Sale, the Sponsor will accept an assignment of all rights to the trademark and all related rights and goodwill, world-wide, to the mark “Industrial Properties Trust” (collectively, the “IPT Intellectual Property”) from Academy Partners and an assignment from the Advisor of all of its rights under the Advisory Agreement, and the Sponsor will assume the obligations of the Advisor under the Advisory Agreement. Following such actions and prior to the closing of the Asset Sale, the Sponsor has agreed to capitalize IPT Advisor LLC, an affiliate of the Sponsor (“New Advisor”), by contributing to it (i) the IPT Intellectual Property, (ii) the Advisory Agreement, and (iii) the Sponsor’s special limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership. As a result of such contribution transactions, New Advisor will be the Company’s new external advisor and will be substituted for the Sponsor as the special limited partner in the Operating Partnership.
The Master Reorganization Agreement also contemplates that immediately following the closing of the Asset Sale, New Advisor will make an in-kind contribution to the Operating Partnership, in the form of an assignment of the IPT Intellectual Property, which IPT Intellectual Property the Company currently licenses from Academy Partners under a non-exclusive license terminable by either party on short notice. In exchange for such in-kind contribution of the IPT Intellectual Property, the Operating Partnership will issue to New Advisor a preferred equity capital interest in the Operating Partnership having a preference on distributions from the Operating Partnership equal to $10.0 million, which amount was determined by reference to the appraised fair market value of the IPT Intellectual Property (the “Preference”). In connection therewith, pursuant to the Master Reorganization Agreement, the Company and the Operating Partnership have agreed to amend and restate the Operating

17


Partnership LPA immediately following the closing of the Asset Sale to provide that distributions by the Operating Partnership will be made, after any distributions necessary to maintain the Company’s status as a real estate investment trust, (i) first, 100% to pay the Preference described above, and (ii) then, 65% to the holders of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in proportion to their ownership interest in the Operating Partnership and 35% to the special limited partner in the Operating Partnership.
The Company relies on the Advisor to manage its day-to-day activities and to implement its investment strategy. The Advisor, New Advisor and Academy Partners are wholly-owned by the Sponsor. The Sponsor is the special limited partner in the Operating Partnership and owned 100 special partnership units in the Operating Partnership as of October 7, 2019. The Sponsor is presently directly or indirectly majority owned, controlled and/or managed by the estate of John A. Blumberg, James R. Mulvihill and Evan H. Zucker, Chairman of the board of directors of the Company, and/or their affiliates. Dwight L. Merriman III, chief executive officer and a director of the Company, Thomas G. McGonagle, chief financial officer of the Company, and Joshua J. Widoff, managing director, chief legal officer and secretary of the Company, each has an indirect ownership interest in the Sponsor. The agreements described above and the transactions contemplated thereby were unanimously approved by the independent directors of the Company’s board of directors.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
References to the terms “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Industrial Property Trust Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The following discussion and analysis should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may be deemed forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Such forward-looking statements relate to, without limitation, rent and occupancy growth, general conditions in the geographic area where we operate, our future debt and financial position, our future capital expenditures, future distributions and acquisitions (including the amount and nature thereof), other developments and trends of the real estate industry, business strategies and the expansion and growth of our operations. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “could,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “project,” or the negative of these words or other comparable terminology. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.
The forward-looking statements included herein are based upon our current expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions, and beliefs that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to:
The occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement;
Failure to obtain the requisite vote of stockholders required to consummate the proposed Asset Sale or the failure to satisfy the other closing conditions to the Asset Sale or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement;
Risks related to disruption of management’s attention from our ongoing business operations due to the pendency of the Asset Sale;
The effect of the announcement of the Asset Sale on our ability to retain key personnel, maintain relationships with our customers and suppliers, and maintain our operating results and business generally;
The ability of third parties to fulfill their obligations relating to the proposed transaction, including providing financing under current financial market conditions;
The outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against us and others related to the Merger Agreement;
Our ability to effectuate a transaction involving our minority ownership interest in our joint venture partnerships on satisfactory terms or at all;
The risk that the Asset Sale, or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, may not be completed in the time frame expected by the parties or at all; 
Our ability to locate and make investments in accordance with our business strategy;
The failure of properties to perform as we expect;
Risks associated with acquisitions, dispositions and development of properties;
Our failure to successfully integrate acquired properties and operations;
Unexpected delays or increased costs associated with any development projects;
The availability of cash flows from operating activities for distributions and capital expenditures;
Defaults on or non-renewal of leases by customers, lease renewals at lower than expected rent, or failure to lease properties at all or on favorable rents and terms;

19


Difficulties in economic conditions generally and the real estate, debt, and securities markets specifically;
Legislative or regulatory changes, including changes to the laws governing the taxation of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”);
Our failure to obtain, renew, or extend necessary financing or access the debt or equity markets;
Conflicts of interest arising out of our relationships with Industrial Property Advisors Group LLC (the “Sponsor”), the Advisor, and their affiliates;
Risks associated with using debt to fund our business activities, including re-financing and interest rate risks;
Increases in interest rates, operating costs, or greater than expected capital expenditures;
Changes to GAAP; and
Our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT.
Any of the assumptions underlying forward-looking statements could prove to be inaccurate. Our stockholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk that actual results will differ materially from the expectations expressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will increase with the passage of time. Except as otherwise required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances, or any other reason. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, the risks described under “Risk Factors,” the inclusion of such forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the objectives and plans set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be achieved.

OVERVIEW
General
Industrial Property Trust Inc. is a Maryland corporation formed on August 28, 2012 to make investments in income-producing real estate assets consisting primarily of high-quality distribution warehouses and other industrial properties that are leased to creditworthy corporate customers. We have operated and elected to be treated as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2013, and we intend to continue to operate in accordance with the requirements for qualification as a REIT. We utilize an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (“UPREIT”) organizational structure to hold all or substantially all of our assets through the Operating Partnership.
On July 24, 2013, we commenced an initial public offering of up to $2.0 billion in shares of our common stock, including up to $1.5 billion in shares of common stock in our primary offering and $500.0 million in shares offered under our distribution reinvestment plan. On June 30, 2017, we terminated the primary portion of our initial public offering. On July 15, 2019, in connection with our original announcement of the Merger Agreement transaction described below, we suspended the offering of shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. As of September 30, 2019, we had raised gross proceeds of approximately $1.9 billion from the sale of 184.0 million shares of our common stock in our public offering, including shares issued under our distribution reinvestment plan.
As of September 30, 2019, we owned and managed, either directly or through our minority ownership interests in our joint venture partnerships, a total real estate portfolio that included 291 industrial buildings totaling approximately 51.4 million square feet located in 26 markets throughout the U.S., with 510 customers, and was 91.6% occupied (92.3% leased) with a weighted-average remaining lease term (based on square feet) of approximately 4.0 years. The occupied rate reflects the square footage with a paying customer in place. The leased rate includes the occupied square footage and additional square footage with leases in place that have not yet commenced. As of September 30, 2019:
281 industrial buildings totaling approximately 49.2 million square feet comprised our operating portfolio, which includes stabilized properties, and was 95.2% occupied (95.8% leased).
10 industrial buildings totaling approximately 2.2 million square feet comprised our development and value-add portfolio, which includes buildings acquired with the intention to reposition or redevelop, or buildings recently completed which have not yet reached stabilization. We generally consider a building to be stabilized on the earlier to occur of the first anniversary of a building’s shell completion or a building achieving 90% occupancy.
Of our total portfolio, we owned and managed 55 buildings totaling approximately 13.9 million square feet through our minority ownership interests in our joint venture partnerships (as described in “Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”). From January 2014 through September 30, 2019, we had acquired, either directly or through our minority ownership interests in our joint venture partnerships, 319 buildings comprised of approximately 55.0 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price, including costs to complete development projects, of approximately $4.2 billion. We funded these acquisitions primarily with proceeds from our public offering, institutional equity and debt financings. In addition, since January 2014, we have disposed of, either directly or through our minority ownership interests in our joint venture partnerships, 28 buildings comprised of approximately 3.5 million square feet for an aggregate gross sales price of $315.8 million.
On July 15, 2019, we announced that we had entered into an agreement and plan of merger (as amended and restated on August 20, 2019, the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which we or our wholly owned subsidiaries will be acquired by an affiliate or affiliates of Prologis, L.P. in an all cash transaction valued at approximately $3.99 billion, subject to certain transaction costs. On August 22, 2019, we announced that we had elected to structure the transaction as a sale of substantially all of our assets excluding our interests in our unconsolidated joint venture partnerships (the “Asset Sale”), and following the Asset Sale, we will continue to exist with our remaining assets consisting primarily of our minority ownership interests in our unconsolidated joint venture partnerships (as described in “Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”). Subject to the satisfaction of applicable closing conditions (including the receipt of the requisite approval of our stockholders), we expect the Asset Sale to close in January 2020. However, we can provide no assurances that the Asset Sale will be completed on the expected timeline or at all. For more information about the Asset Sale, see our definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on October 21, 2019. In connection with the original announcement of the Merger Agreement, we have suspended our share redemption program and distribution reinvestment plan effective beginning with the third quarter of 2019. Following the closing of the Asset Sale, we currently expect to terminate the distribution reinvestment plan and reinstate the share redemption program solely with respect to redemptions requested in connection with the death of a stockholder, subject to an aggregate cap for all stockholders of $1.0 million.
Our primary investment objectives include the following:
preserving and protecting our stockholders’ capital contributions;
providing current income to our stockholders in the form of regular distributions; and

21


realizing capital appreciation upon the potential sale of our assets or other liquidity events.
There is no assurance that we will attain our investment objectives. Our charter places numerous limitations on us with respect to the manner in which we may invest our funds. In most cases these limitations cannot be changed unless our charter is amended, which may require the approval of our stockholders.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Summary of 2019 Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we completed the following activities:
We directly acquired one industrial building and completed the development of one industrial building comprising an aggregate 0.2 million square feet and a total purchase price of approximately $16.8 million, including costs to complete the development project. Additionally, we sold two industrial buildings and one land parcel for net proceeds of approximately $25.0 million. We recorded a total net gain of $6.1 million related to the disposal of these properties.
We, through our 20.0% ownership interest in the BTC I Partnership, completed the development of four industrial buildings comprising 0.8 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $80.3 million, including costs to complete the development projects. Additionally, the BTC I Partnership sold two industrial buildings for net proceeds of $20.4 million and recorded a gain of $5.6 million related to these disposals. As of September 30, 2019, the BTC I Partnership owned a real estate portfolio that consisted of: 38 acquired or completed buildings totaling approximately 10.3 million square feet that were approximately 89.1% leased; five buildings under construction totaling 1.4 million square feet; four buildings in the pre-construction phase for an additional 0.7 million square feet; and one land parcel.
We, through our 8.0% ownership interest in the BTC II Partnership, completed the development of four industrial buildings comprising 1.2 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $85.1 million, including costs to complete the development projects. As of September 30, 2019, the BTC II Partnership owned a real estate portfolio that consisted of: 17 acquired or completed buildings totaling approximately 3.7 million square feet that were approximately 56.1% leased; five buildings under construction totaling 1.2 million square feet; and 9 buildings in the pre-construction phase for an additional 2.8 million square feet.
We leased approximately 7.8 million square feet, which included 4.1 million square feet of new and future leases and 3.7 million of renewals through 85 separate transactions with an average annual base rent of $5.53 per square foot. Future leases represent new leases for units that are entered into while the units are occupied by the current customer.

Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Same Periods in 2018
The following table summarizes our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periods in 2018. We evaluate the performance of consolidated operating properties we own and manage using a same store analysis because the population of properties in this analysis is consistent from period to period, thereby eliminating the effects of any material changes in the composition of the aggregate portfolio on performance measures. We have defined the same store portfolio to include consolidated operating properties owned for the entirety of both the current and prior reporting periods for which the operations had been stabilized. “Other properties” includes buildings not meeting the same store criteria. The same store operating portfolio for the three month periods presented below included 227 buildings totaling approximately 35.7 million square feet owned as of July 1, 2018, which portfolio represented 95.3% of total rentable square feet, 96.6% of total revenues, and 96.9% of net operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The same store operating portfolio for the nine month periods presented below included 221 buildings totaling approximately 35.2 million square feet owned as of January 1, 2018, which portfolio represented 93.9% of total consolidated rentable square feet as of September 30, 2019, and 95.3% of total revenues and 96.0% of net operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Rental Revenues. Rental revenues are comprised of rental income, straight-line rent, and amortization of above- and below-market lease assets and liabilities. Total rental revenues increased by approximately $2.7 million, or 4.4%, and $8.6 million, or 4.8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018, due to an increase in both same store rental revenues and non-same store rental revenues. Same store rental revenues increased by $2.3 million, or 3.8%, and $5.6 million, or 3.2%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively as compared to the same periods in 2018, primarily due to higher rental rates for new leases and renewals, as well as a slight increase in the average occupancy rate for the same store operating portfolio from 97.0% to 97.2% and 97.2% to 97.4% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018. Non-same store rental revenues increased by $0.4 million and $3.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018, primarily due to the lease-up activity in mid-to-late 2018 in certain of our non-same store properties, which resulted in a full period of stabilized property operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.
Rental Expenses. Rental expenses include certain property operating expenses typically reimbursed by our customers, such as real estate taxes, property insurance, property management fees, repair and maintenance, and certain non-recoverable expenses, such as consulting services and roof repairs. Total rental expenses increased by approximately $0.7 million, or 4.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to higher real estate taxes in both our same store and non-same store portfolios. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, total rental expenses increased by approximately $2.8 million, or 5.8%, as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to an increase in repairs and maintenance, including higher snow removal costs, as well as higher real estate taxes in both our same store and non-same store portfolios.
Other Income and Expenses. The net amount of other income and expenses, in aggregate, increased by approximately $0.5 million, or 1.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to:
a decrease in our proportionate share of the income of our unconsolidated joint venture partnerships of $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, which was primarily related to our share of the net gains recognized related to the disposition of certain real estate properties of our unconsolidated joint venture partnerships in 2018.
Partially offset by:
a decrease in real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense of $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, that was driven by certain intangible lease assets that reached full amortization during the second quarter of 2018 and the first and second quarters of 2019.
The net amount of other income and expenses, in aggregate, decreased by approximately $6.1 million, or 4.3%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to: 
an increase in net gain on disposition of real estate properties of $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018 as a result of an increase in disposition activity in 2019; and
a decrease in real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense of $4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, that was driven by certain intangible lease assets that reached full amortization during the second quarter of 2018 and the first and second quarters of 2019.
Partially offset by:
an increase in interest expense of $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to higher average net borrowings under our line of credit for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 of $24.9 million, offset by a lower aggregate weighted-average interest rate of 3.09% as of September 30, 2019, as compared to 3.23% as of September 30, 2018; and
a decrease in our proportionate share of the income of our unconsolidated joint venture partnerships of $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, which was primarily related to our share of the net gains recognized related to the disposition of certain real estate properties of our unconsolidated joint venture partnerships in 2018.

ADDITIONAL MEASURES OF PERFORMANCE
Net Income (Loss) and Net Operating Income (“NOI”)
We define NOI as GAAP rental revenues less GAAP rental expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders was $0.1 million, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders was $1.5 million, as compared to GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders of $1.6 million and $10.5 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, NOI increased 4.3% to $46.6 million and 4.4% to $137.9 million, respectively, as compared to $44.7 million and $132.1 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, same store NOI was $45.2 million, up 3.9%, and $132.3 million, up 3.1%, respectively, as compared to $43.5 million and $128.4 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure and believe NOI provides useful information to our investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because NOI reflects the operating performance of our properties and excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of the properties, such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, acquisition-related expenses, impairment charges, general and administrative expenses, interest expense and net gain on disposition of real estate properties. However, NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it excludes such expenses, which could materially impact our results of operations. Further, our calculation of NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may use different methodologies for calculating NOI. Therefore, we believe our net income (loss), as defined by GAAP, to be the most appropriate measure to evaluate our overall performance. Refer to “Results of Operations” above for a reconciliation of our GAAP net income (loss) to NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and Modified Funds from Operations (“MFFO”)
We believe that FFO and MFFO, in addition to net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, are useful supplemental performance measures that our management uses to evaluate our consolidated operating performance. However, these supplemental, non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or to cash flows from operating activities as an indication of our performance and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. No single measure can provide users of financial information with sufficient information and only our disclosures read as a whole can be relied upon to adequately portray our financial position, liquidity, and results of operations. In addition, other REITs may define FFO and similar measures differently and choose to treat acquisition-related costs and potentially other accounting line items in a manner different from us due to specific differences in investment and operating strategy or for other reasons.
FFO. As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), FFO is a non-GAAP measure that excludes certain items such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, impairment of depreciable real estate, and gains or losses on sales of assets. We believe FFO is a meaningful supplemental measure of our operating performance that is useful to investors because depreciation and amortization in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. By excluding gains or losses on the sale of assets, we believe FFO provides a helpful additional measure of our consolidated operating performance on a comparative basis. We use FFO as an indication of our consolidated operating performance and as a guide to making decisions about future investments.
MFFO. As defined by the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives (“IPA”), MFFO is a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure used to evaluate our operating performance. Similar to FFO, MFFO excludes items such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, impairment of depreciable real estate, and gains or losses on sales of assets. MFFO also excludes straight-line rent and amortization of above- and below-market leases. In addition, there are certain other MFFO adjustments as defined by the IPA that are not applicable to us and are not included in our presentation of MFFO.
We use FFO and MFFO to, among other things: (i) evaluate and compare the potential performance of the portfolio, and (ii) evaluate potential performance to determine liquidity event strategies. Although some REITs may present similar measures differently from us, we believe FFO and MFFO generally facilitate a comparison to other REITs that have similar operating characteristics to us. We believe investors are best served if the information that is made available to them allows them to align their analyses and evaluation with the same performance metrics used by management in planning and executing our business strategy. We believe that these performance metrics will assist investors in evaluating the potential performance of the portfolio. However, these supplemental, non-GAAP measures are not necessarily indicative of future performance and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or to cash flows from operating activities and is not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs. Neither the SEC, NAREIT, nor any regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments used to calculate FFO and MFFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT,

25


or a regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the non-traded REIT industry at which point we may adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO and MFFO.

We believe that (i) our NAREIT FFO of $27.2 million, or $0.15 per share, as compared to the total gross distributions declared in the amount of $25.3 million, or $0.14 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2019; and (ii) our NAREIT FFO of $77.2 million, or $0.44 per share, as compared to the total gross distributions declared in the amount of $75.9 million, or $0.43 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 should be indicative of future performance as we are no longer raising capital and are no longer in the acquisition phase of our life cycle. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Distributions” below for details concerning our distributions.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Our primary sources of capital for meeting our cash requirements include, and will continue to include, cash flows generated from operating activities and funds provided by debt financings and refinancings. Our principal uses of funds are, and will continue to be, capital expenditures, operating expenses, payments under our debt obligations, and distributions to our stockholders. We expect to utilize the same sources of capital to meet our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital requirements.

Cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased by approximately $7.5 million as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to an increase in property operations. Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 decreased by approximately $60.2 million as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to: (i) an increase in proceeds received from the disposition of real estate properties of $24.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019; (ii) a decrease in our acquisition, capital expenditure and development activity in the amount of $32.9 million; and (iii) a decrease in our investment in unconsolidated joint venture partnerships of $6.4 million, as compared to the same period in 2018, which was partially offset by net proceeds of $4.2 million relating to the sale of a portion of our joint venture partnership ownership interest in 2018. Cash provided by financing activities of $11.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 decreased by approximately $66.8 million to $55.1 million of cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our net borrowing activity of $64.2 million.
Capital Resources and Uses of Liquidity
In addition to our cash and cash equivalents balances available, our capital resources and uses of liquidity are as follows:
Line of Credit and Term Loans. As of September 30, 2019, we had an aggregate of $1.0 billion of commitments under our credit agreements, including $500.0 million under our line of credit and $500.0 million under our two term loans. As of that date, we had: (i) approximately $331.0 million outstanding under our line of credit with a weighted-average effective interest rate of 2.99%, which includes the effect of the interest rate swap agreements related to $150.0 million in borrowings under our line of credit; and (ii) $500.0 million outstanding under our term loans with a weighted-average effective interest rate of 2.77%, which includes the effect of the interest rate swap agreements related to $350.0 million in borrowings under our term loans. The unused and available portions under our line of credit were both $169.0 million. Our $500.0 million line of credit matures in January 2020, and may be extended pursuant to a one-year extension option, subject to certain conditions, including the payment of an extension fee. Our $350.0 million term loan matures in January 2021 and our $150.0 million term loan matures in May 2022. Our line of credit and term loan borrowings are available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the acquisition and operation of permitted investments. Refer to “Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding our line of credit and term loans.
Mortgage Notes. As of September 30, 2019, we had property-level borrowings of approximately $720.1 million outstanding with a weighted-average remaining term of 4.6 years. These borrowings are secured by mortgages or deeds of trust and related assignments and security interests in the collateralized properties, and had a weighted-average interest rate of 3.36%, which includes the effects of the interest rate swap agreement relating to our $94.2 million variable-rate mortgage note. Refer to “Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding the mortgage notes.
Debt Covenants. Our line of credit, term loan and mortgage note agreements contain various property-level covenants, including customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, our line of credit and term loan agreements contain certain corporate level financial covenants, including leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, and tangible net worth thresholds. These covenants may limit our ability to incur additional debt, to make borrowings under our line of credit, or to pay distributions. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of September 30, 2019.
Distributions. We intend to continue to make distributions for the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2020 up until the day immediately preceding the closing of the Asset Sale. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, 69.3% of our total gross distributions were paid from cash flows from operating activities, as determined on a GAAP basis, and 30.7% of our total gross distributions were funded from sources other than cash flows from operating activities, specifically with proceeds from shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. Some or all of our future distributions may continue to be paid from sources other than cash flows from operating activities, such as cash flows from financing activities, which include

27


borrowings, cash resulting from a waiver or deferral of fees or expense reimbursements otherwise payable to the Advisor or its affiliates, cash resulting from the Advisor or its affiliates paying certain of our expenses, and our cash balances. We have not established a cap on the amount of our distributions that may be paid from any of these sources. The amount of any distributions will be determined by our board of directors, and will depend on, among other things, current and projected cash requirements, tax considerations and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors. For the fourth quarter of 2019, our board of directors authorized daily distributions to all common stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day of the fourth quarter of 2019 at a quarterly rate of $0.1425 per Class A share of common stock and $0.1425 per Class T share of common stock less the annual distribution fees that are payable monthly with respect to such Class T shares (calculated on a daily basis). Distributions for the fourth quarter of 2019 will be aggregated and paid in cash on a date determined by us that is no later than January 15, 2020. As noted above, in connection with the original announcement of the Merger Agreement described in “Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” we have suspended our distribution reinvestment plan beginning with distributions for the third quarter of 2019.
In the near-term, we may need to utilize cash flows from financing activities, as determined on a GAAP basis, to pay distributions, which if insufficient could negatively impact our ability to pay such distributions.
The following table outlines sources used, as determined on a GAAP basis, to pay total gross distributions (which are paid in cash or reinvested in shares of our common stock through our distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”)) for the periods indicated below:

Historically, stockholders may have elected to have their distributions reinvested in shares of our common stock through our distribution reinvestment plan. However, in connection with our original announcement of the Merger Agreement described in “Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” we have suspended our distribution reinvestment plan beginning with the third quarter of 2019. Following the closing of the Asset Sale, we currently expect to terminate the distribution reinvestment plan.
(2)
Gross distributions are total distributions before the deduction of distribution fees relating to Class T shares issued in the primary portion of our public offering.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our cash flows provided by operating activities on a GAAP basis were $76.2 million, as compared to our aggregate total gross distributions declared of $75.9 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, our cash flows provided by operating activities on a GAAP basis were $68.7 million, as compared to our aggregate total gross distributions declared of $75.3 million.
Refer to “Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further detail on distributions.
Redemptions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we received eligible redemption requests related to approximately 1.2 million and 2.1 million shares of our common stock, respectively, all of which we redeemed using cash flows from financing activities, for an aggregate amount of approximately $11.4 million, or an average price of $9.90 per share, and approximately $20.1 million, or an average price of $9.79 per share, respectively.

28


In connection with our original announcement of the Merger Agreement described in “Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” we have suspended our share redemption program, effective as of the third quarter of 2019. Following the closing of the Asset Sale, we currently expect to reinstate the share redemption program solely with respect to redemptions requested in connection with the death of a stockholder, subject to an aggregate cap for all stockholders of $1.0 million.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
A summary of future obligations as of December 31, 2018 was disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K. Except as otherwise disclosed in “Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” relating to our debt obligations, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business.
Asset Sale Transaction Termination Fee
The Merger Agreement provides that, in connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, we will be required to pay to Prologis, L.P. a termination fee of $65.0 million, provided that if the requisite approval of the Asset Sale by our stockholders has not been obtained on or before January 15, 2020, then the termination fee will be $96.0 million.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of September 30, 2019, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect, on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires significant management judgments, assumptions, and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. For a detailed description of our critical accounting estimates, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2018 Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2019, our critical accounting estimates have not changed from those described in our 2018 Form 10-K.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Reorganization in connection with the Asset Sale
See “Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for information concerning the reorganization of the Sponsor’s and the Advisor’s interests in the Company in connection with and following the Asset Sale.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows, and optimize overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we have borrowed on a fixed interest rate basis for longer-term debt and utilized interest rate swap agreements on certain variable interest rate debt in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our results of operations. As of September 30, 2019, our debt instruments consisted of borrowings under our line of credit, term loans, and mortgage notes.
Fixed Interest Rate Debt. As of September 30, 2019, our consolidated fixed interest rate debt consisted of $150.0 million of borrowings under our line of credit, $350.0 million of borrowings under one of our term loans, and $720.1 million under our mortgage notes, which, in the aggregate, represented approximately 78.7% of our total consolidated debt. The interest rates on certain of these borrowings are fixed through the use of interest rate swap agreements. Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows on our fixed interest rate debt unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated, or payments are made on the principal balance. However, interest rate changes could affect the fair value of our fixed interest rate debt. As of September 30, 2019, the fair value and the carrying value of our consolidated fixed interest rate debt were both approximately $1.2 billion. The fair value estimate of our fixed interest rate debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing rates we would expect to pay for debt of a similar type and remaining maturity if the loans were originated on September 30, 2019. Based on the underlying structure of the debt instrument and that the amounts due under such instruments are limited to the outstanding principal balance and any accrued and unpaid interest, we do not expect that market fluctuations in interest rates, and the resulting change in fair value of our fixed interest rate debt instruments, would have a significant impact on our operating cash flows.
Variable Interest Rate Debt. As of September 30, 2019, our consolidated variable interest rate debt consisted of $181.0 million of borrowings under our line of credit and $150.0 million of borrowings under one of our term loans, which combined represented approximately 21.3% of our total consolidated debt. Interest rate changes on our variable-rate debt could impact our future earnings and cash flows, but would not significantly affect the fair value of such debt. As of September 30, 2019, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $331.0 million of consolidated borrowings. A hypothetical 10% change in the average interest rate on the outstanding balance of our variable interest rate debt as of September 30, 2019, would change our annual interest expense by approximately $0.7 million.
Derivative Instruments. As of September 30, 2019, we had 11 outstanding interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, with a total notional amount of $594.2 million. See “Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further detail on our interest rate swaps. We are exposed to credit risk of the counterparty to our interest rate swap agreements in the event of non-performance under the terms of the agreements. If we were not able to replace these swaps in the event of non-performance by the counterparty, we would be subject to variability of the interest rate on the amount outstanding under our debt that is fixed through the use of the swaps.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2019. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2018 Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and/or future results. The risks described in our 2018 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results.
With the exception of the risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K.
RISKS RELATED TO THE ASSET SALE TRANSACTION
There is no assurance that the Asset Sale will be consummated.
There can be no assurance that the Asset Sale will be consummated or, if consummated, that certain terms may not change. The Merger Agreement is subject to a number of conditions that might prevent a closing of the Asset Sale including, but not limited to, obtaining the approval of our stockholders. In addition, the Merger Agreement may be terminated by either party under certain circumstances. In connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, we would be required to pay a termination fee of $65.0 million, provided that if the requisite approval by our stockholders has not been obtained on or before January 15, 2020, then the termination fee will be $96.0 million. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Asset Sale will be consummated according to the terms described herein or at all, and if it fails to close, we may be liable for a significant termination fee.
Failure to complete the Asset Sale could negatively affect our future business and financial results.
If the Asset Sale is not completed, our ongoing business could be adversely affected, and it would be subject to a variety of risks associated with the failure to complete such transaction, including the following:
Being required, under certain circumstances, to pay a termination fee of $65.0 million, provided that if the requisite approval by our stockholders has not been obtained on or before January 15, 2020, then the termination fee will be $96.0 million;
Incurrence of substantial costs in connection with the Asset Sale and related transactions, such as legal, accounting, financial advisory, filing, printing and mailing fees;
Diversion of management focus and resources from operational matters and other strategic opportunities while working to implement the Asset Sale; and
Reputational harm due to the adverse perception of any failure to successfully complete the Asset Sale.
If the Asset Sale is not completed, these risks could negatively affect our business and financial results. In addition, due to operating restrictions in the Merger Agreement, we may be unable, during the pendency of the Asset Sale to pursue strategic transactions, undertake significant capital projects, undertake certain significant financing transactions and otherwise pursue other actions, even if such actions would prove beneficial.
The Merger Agreement contains provisions that could discourage a potential competing acquirer or could result in any competing acquisition proposal being at a lower price than it might otherwise be.
The Merger Agreement contains provisions that, subject to limited exceptions, restrict our ability to solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any acquisition proposal. With respect to any written, bona fide acquisition proposal that we receive, Prologis, L.P. generally has an opportunity to offer to modify the terms of the Merger Agreement in response to such proposal before our board of directors may withdraw or modify its recommendation to stockholders in response to such acquisition proposal or terminate the Merger Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such acquisition proposal. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under circumstances relating to an acquisition proposal, we may be required to pay a termination fee of $65.0 million, provided that if the requisite approval by our stockholders has not been obtained on or before January 15, 2020, then the termination fee will be $96.0 million.
These provisions could discourage a potential competing acquirer that might have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of our business from considering or making a competing acquisition proposal, even if the potential competing acquirer was prepared to pay consideration with a higher per share cash value than the value proposed to be received or realized in the Asset Sale, or might cause a potential competing acquirer to propose to pay a lower price than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the termination fee that may become payable in certain circumstances under the Merger Agreement.

31


Lawsuits in connection with the Asset Sale and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement may be costly and may prevent the Asset Sale and/or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement from being consummated or from being consummated within the expected timeframe.
Our stockholders may file lawsuits challenging the Asset Sale, which may name us or our board of directors as defendants. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, no such lawsuits challenging the Asset Sale were pending, or to our knowledge, threatened. However, if such a lawsuit is filed, we cannot assure you as to the outcome of any such lawsuits, including the amount of costs associated with defending any such claims or any other liabilities that may be incurred in connection with such claims. If any plaintiffs are successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting us from consummating the Asset Sale, such an injunction may delay the Asset Sale or prevent it from being completed. Whether or not any plaintiff’s claim is successful, this type of litigation often results in significant costs and diverts management’s attention and resources, which could adversely affect the operation of our business.
RISKS RELATED TO THE ADVISOR AND ITS AFFILIATES
We will compete with entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor, for whom affiliates of the Sponsor provide certain advisory or management services, for opportunities to acquire or sell investments, and for customers, which may have an adverse impact on our operations.
We compete with existing entities, and may compete with entities created in the future, that are sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor as well as entities for whom affiliates of the Sponsor provide certain advisory or management services, for opportunities to acquire, lease, finance or sell certain types of properties. We may also buy, finance or sell properties at the same time as these entities are buying, financing or selling properties. In this regard, there is a risk that we will purchase a property that provides lower returns to us than a property purchased by entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor and entities for whom affiliates of the Sponsor provide certain advisory or management services.
Certain entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor own and/or manage properties in geographical areas in which we expect to own properties. Therefore, our properties may compete for customers with other properties owned and/or managed by these entities. The Advisor may face conflicts of interest when evaluating customer leasing opportunities for our properties and other properties owned and/or managed by these entities and these conflicts of interest may have a negative impact on our ability to attract and retain customers. The Sponsor and the Advisor have implemented lease allocation guidelines to assist with the process of the allocation of leases when we and certain other entities to which affiliates of the Advisor are providing certain advisory services have potentially competing properties with respect to a particular customer. Pursuant to the lease allocation guidelines, if we have an opportunity to bid on a lease with a prospective customer and one or more of these other entities has a potentially competing property, then, under certain circumstances, we may not be permitted to bid on the opportunity and in other circumstances, we and the other entities will be permitted to participate in the bidding process. The lease allocation guidelines are overseen by a joint management committee consisting of our management committee and certain other management representatives associated with other entities to which affiliates of the Advisor are providing similar services.
Because affiliates of the Sponsor and the Advisor currently sponsor and in the future may advise other investment vehicles (each, an “Investment Vehicle”) with overlapping investment objectives, strategies and criteria, potential conflicts of interest may arise with respect to industrial real estate investment opportunities (“Industrial Investments”). In order to manage this potential conflict of interest, in allocating Industrial Investments among the Investment Vehicles, the Sponsor follows an allocation policy (the “Allocation Policy”) which currently provides that if the Sponsor or one of its affiliates is awarded and controls an Industrial Investment that is suitable for more than one Investment Vehicle, based upon various Allocation Factors (defined below), including without limitation availability of capital, portfolio objectives, diversification goals, target investment markets, return requirements, investment timing and the Investment Vehicle’s applicable approval discretion and timing, then the Industrial Investment will be allocated to Investment Vehicles on a rotational basis and will be offered to the Investment Vehicle at the top of the rotation list (that is, the Investment Vehicle that has gone the longest without being allocated an Industrial Investment). If an Investment Vehicle on the list declines the Industrial Investment, it will be rotated to the bottom of the rotation list. Exceptions may be made to the Allocation Policy for (x) transactions necessary to accommodate an exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or (y) characteristics of a particular Industrial Investment or Investment Vehicle, such as adjacency to an existing asset, legal, regulatory or tax concerns or benefits, portfolio balancing or other Allocation Factors listed below, which make the Industrial Investment more advantageous to one of the Investment Vehicles. In addition, the Sponsor may from time to time specify that it will not seek new allocations for more than one Investment Vehicle until certain minimum allocation levels are reached.
The Sponsor may from time to time grant to certain Investment Vehicles certain exclusivity, rotation or other priority (each, a “Special Priority”) with respect to Industrial Investments or other investment opportunities. Current existing Special Priorities have been granted to: (i) Build-to-Core Industrial Partnership III LLC (“BTC III”), pursuant to which BTC III will be presented one out of every three qualifying development Industrial Investments (subject to the terms and conditions of the BTC III

32


partnership agreement) until such time as capital commitments thereunder have been fully committed; (ii) Black Creek Industrial Fund LP (“BCIF”) pursuant to which BCIF will be presented one out of every three potential development Industrial Investments, one out of every five potential value-add Industrial Investments, and one out of every three potential core Industrial Investments (subject to terms and conditions of the BCIF partnership agreement) until such time as capital commitments accepted by BCIF on or prior to March 31, 2020 have been called or committed; and (iii) the BTC II Partnership pursuant to which the BTC II Partnership will be presented one out of every three qualifying development Industrial Investments (subject to terms and conditions of the BTC II Partnership agreement) until such time as capital commitments thereunder have been fully committed. The Sponsor or its affiliates may grant additional special priorities in the future and from time to time. In addition, to the extent that a potential conflict of interest arises with respect to an investment opportunity other than an Industrial Investment, the Sponsor currently expects to manage the potential conflict of interest by allocating the investment in accordance with the principles of the Allocation Policy the Sponsor follows with respect to Industrial Investments.
“Allocation Factors” are those factors that the Sponsor maintains and updates from time to time based on review by the Sponsor’s Head of Real Estate. Current examples of Allocation Factors include:
Overall investment objectives, strategy and criteria, including product type and style of investing (for example, core, core plus, value-add and opportunistic);
The general real property sector or debt investment allocation targets of each program and any targeted geographic concentration;
The cash requirements of each program;
The strategic proximity of the investment opportunity to other assets;
The effect of the acquisition on diversification of investments, including by type of property, geographic area, customers, size and risk;
The policy of each program relating to leverage of investments;
The effect of the acquisition on loan maturity profile;
The effect on lease expiration profile;
Customer concentration;
The effect of the acquisition on ability to comply with any restrictions on investments and indebtedness contained in applicable governing documents, SEC filings, contracts or applicable law or regulation;
The effect of the acquisition on the applicable entity’s intention not to be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act;
Legal considerations, such as Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) and Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (“FIRPTA”), that may be applicable to specific investment platforms;
The financial attributes of the investment opportunity;
Availability of financing;
Cost of capital;
Ability to service any debt associated with the investment opportunity;
Risk return profiles;
Targeted distribution rates;
Anticipated future pipeline of suitable investments;
Expected holding period of the investment opportunity and the applicable entity’s remaining term;
Whether the applicable entity still is in its fundraising and acquisition stage, or has substantially invested the proceeds from its fundraising stage;
Whether the applicable entity was formed for the purpose of making a particular type of investment;
Affiliate and/or related party considerations;
The anticipated cash flow of the applicable entity and the asset;
Tax effects of the acquisition, including on REIT or partnership qualifications;
The size of the investment opportunity; and
The amount of funds available to each program and the length of time such funds have been available for investment.
The Sponsor may modify its overall allocation policies from time to time. Any changes to the Sponsor’s allocation policies will be timely reported to our Conflicts Resolution Committee. The Advisor will be required to provide information to our board of directors on a quarterly basis to enable our board of directors, including the independent directors, to determine whether such policies are being fairly applied.
