DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE
Portions of the Kilroy Realty Corporation’s Proxy Statement with respect to its 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be filed not later than 120 days after the end of the
registrant’s fiscal year are incorporated by reference into Part III of this Form 10-K.
EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the annual reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 of Kilroy Realty Corporation and Kilroy Realty, L.P. Unless stated
otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Kilroy Realty Corporation” or the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” mean Kilroy Realty Corporation, a
Maryland corporation, and its controlled and consolidated subsidiaries, and references to “Kilroy Realty, L.P.” or the “Operating Partnership” mean Kilroy Realty,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and its controlled and consolidated subsidiaries.
The Company is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and the general partner of the Operating Partnership. As of December 31, 2019, the Company owned an
approximate 98.1% common general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining approximate 1.9% common limited partnership interests are
owned by non-affiliated investors and certain directors and officers of the Company. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company
exercises exclusive and complete discretion over the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management and control and can cause it to enter into certain major
transactions including acquisitions, dispositions, and refinancings and cause changes in its line of business, capital structure and distribution policies.
There are a few differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership that are reflected in the disclosures in this Form 10-K. We believe it is
important to understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Company and the Operating Partnership
operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. The Company is a REIT, the only material asset of which is the partnership interests it holds in the Operating
Partnership. As a result, the Company generally does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing
equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of the Operating Partnership. The Company itself is not directly obligated under any indebtedness, but
generally guarantees all of the debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership owns substantially all of the assets of the Company either directly or
through its subsidiaries, conducts the operations of the Company’s business and is structured as a limited partnership with no publicly-traded equity. Except for net
proceeds from equity issuances by the Company, which the Company generally contributes to the Operating Partnership in exchange for units of partnership
interest, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the Company’s business through the Operating Partnership’s operations, by the Operating
Partnership’s incurrence of indebtedness or through the issuance of units of partnership interest.
Noncontrolling interests, stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the
Company and those of the Operating Partnership. The common limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ capital in the
Operating Partnership’s financial statements and, to the extent not held by the Company, as noncontrolling interests in the Company’s financial statements. The
Operating Partnership’s financial statements reflect the noncontrolling interest in Kilroy Realty Finance Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the
“Finance Partnership”). This noncontrolling interest represents the Company’s 1% indirect general partnership interest in the Finance Partnership, which is directly
held by Kilroy Realty Finance, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The differences between stockholders’ equity, partners’ capital and noncontrolling
interests result from the differences in the equity issued by the Company and the Operating Partnership, and in the Operating Partnership’s noncontrolling interest
in the Finance Partnership.
We believe combining the annual reports on Form 10-K of the Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report results in the following benefits:
• Combined reports better reflect how management and the analyst community view the business as a single operating unit;
• Combined reports enhance investors’ understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a whole and
in the same manner as management;
• Combined reports are more efficient for the Company and the Operating Partnership and result in savings in time, effort and expense; and
• Combined reports are more efficient for investors by reducing duplicative disclosure and providing a single document for their review.

PART I
This document contains certain “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including, among other things, statements or information concerning our plans, objectives, capital resources,
portfolio performance, results of operations, projected future occupancy and rental rates, lease expirations, debt maturities, potential investments, strategies such as
capital recycling, development and redevelopment activity, projected construction costs, projected construction commencement and completion dates, projected
square footage of space that could be constructed on undeveloped land that we own, projected rentable square footage of or number of units in properties under
construction or in the development pipeline, anticipated proceeds from capital recycling activity or other dispositions and anticipated dates of those activities or
dispositions, projected increases in the value of properties, dispositions, future executive incentive compensation, pending, potential or proposed acquisitions,
plans to grow our net operating income and funds from operations, our ability to re-lease properties at or above current market rates, anticipated market conditions,
demographics and other forward-looking financial data, as well as the discussion in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations -Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations.” Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, beliefs and
assumptions, and are not guarantees of future performance. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks, changes in circumstances,
trends and factors that are difficult to predict, many of which are outside of our control. Accordingly, actual performance, results and events may vary materially
from those indicated or implied in the forward-looking statements, and you should not rely on the forward-looking statements as predictions of future performance,
results or events. All forward-looking statements are based on information that was available and speak only as of the dates on which they were made. We assume
no obligation to update any forward-looking statement that becomes untrue because of subsequent events, new information or otherwise, except to the extent we are
required to do so in connection with our ongoing requirements under federal securities laws.
In addition, this report contains information and statistics regarding, among other things, the industry, markets, submarkets and sectors in which we operate, the
percentage by which certain leases are above or below applicable market rents and the number of square feet of office and other space that could be developed from
specific parcels of undeveloped land. We obtained this information and these statistics from various third-party sources and our own internal estimates. We believe
that these sources and estimates are reliable but have not independently verified them and cannot guarantee their accuracy or completeness.

ITEM 1.
BUSINESS
The Company
We are a self-administered REIT active in premier office and mixed-use submarkets along the West Coast. We own, develop, acquire and manage real estate
assets, consisting primarily of Class A properties in the coastal regions of Greater Los Angeles, San Diego County, the San Francisco Bay Area and Greater Seattle,
which we believe have strategic advantages and strong barriers to entry. Class A real estate encompasses attractive and efficient buildings of high quality that are
attractive to tenants, are well-designed and constructed with above-average material, workmanship and finishes and are well-maintained and managed. We qualify as
a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). We own our interests in all of our real estate assets through the Operating Partnership
and the Finance Partnership and generally conduct substantially all of our operations through the Operating Partnership.
Our stabilized portfolio of operating properties was comprised of the following properties at December 31, 2019:

Our stabilized portfolio includes all of our properties with the exception of development and redevelopment properties currently committed for construction,
under construction, or in the tenant improvement phase, undeveloped land, recently completed residential properties not yet stabilized and real estate assets held for
sale. We define redevelopment properties as those properties for which we expect to spend significant development and construction costs on the existing or
acquired buildings pursuant to a formal plan, the intended result of which is a higher economic return on the property. We define properties in the tenant
improvement phase as office and retail properties that we are developing or redeveloping where the project has reached cold shell condition and is ready for tenant
improvements, which may require additional major base building construction before being placed in service. Projects in the tenant improvement phase are added to
our stabilized portfolio once the project reaches the earlier of 95% occupancy or one year from the date of the cessation of major base building construction
activities. Costs capitalized to construction in progress for development and redevelopment properties are transferred to land and improvements, buildings and
improvements, and deferred leasing costs on our consolidated balance sheets at the historical cost of the property as the projects are placed in service.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we added one completed development project to our stabilized office portfolio consisting of 394,340 square feet in
San Francisco, California. As of December 31, 2019, the following properties were excluded from our stabilized portfolio. We did not have any redevelopment
properties or properties held for sale at December 31, 2019.

Our stabilized portfolio also excludes our future development pipeline, which as of December 31, 2019, was comprised of five future development sites,
representing approximately 61 gross acres of undeveloped land.
5
As of December 31, 2019, all of our properties and development projects were owned and all of our business was conducted in the state of California with the
exception of eight office properties, one development project under construction and one recently acquired future development project located in the state of
Washington. All of our properties and development projects are 100% owned, excluding four office properties owned by three consolidated property partnerships,
and two development projects held in Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) which we consolidated for financial reporting purposes (see Note 2 “Basis of Significant
Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report). The two VIEs were established to facilitate potential future transactions
intended to qualify as a like-kind exchanges pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code (“Section 1031 Exchange”) to defer taxable gains on dispositions for federal and
state income tax purposes. Two of the three consolidated property partnerships, 100 First Street Member, LLC (“100 First LLC”) and 303 Second Street Member, LLC
(“303 Second LLC”), each owned one office property in San Francisco, California through subsidiary REITs. As of December 31, 2019, the Company owned a 56%
common equity interest in both 100 First LLC and 303 Second LLC. The third consolidated property partnership, Redwood City Partners, LLC (“Redwood LLC”),
owned two office properties in Redwood City, California. As of December 31, 2019, the Company owned an approximate 93% common equity interest in Redwood
LLC. The remaining interests in all three property partnerships were owned by unrelated third parties. All three property partnerships are consolidated entities.
We own our interests in all of our real estate assets through the Operating Partnership and the Finance Partnership and generally conduct substantially all of
our operations through the Operating Partnership of which we owned a 98.1% common general partnership interest as of December 31, 2019. The remaining 1.9%
common limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership as of December 31, 2019 was owned by non-affiliated investors and certain of our executive officers
and directors. Kilroy Realty Finance, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is the sole general partner of the Finance Partnership and owns a 1.0%
common general partnership interest in the Finance Partnership. The Operating Partnership owns the remaining 99.0% common limited partnership interest. With the
exception of the Operating Partnership and our consolidated property partnerships, all of our subsidiaries are wholly-owned.

Business and Growth Strategies
Growth Strategies. We believe that a number of factors and strategies will enable us to continue to achieve our objectives of long-term sustainable growth in
Net Operating Income (defined below) and FFO (defined below) as well as maximization of long-term stockholder value. These factors and strategies include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
the quality, geographic location, physical characteristics and operating sustainability of our properties;
our ability to efficiently manage our assets as a low cost provider of commercial real estate through our seasoned management team possessing core
capabilities in all aspects of real estate ownership, including property management, leasing, marketing, financing, accounting, legal, and construction and
development management;
our access to development, redevelopment, acquisition and leasing opportunities as a result of our extensive experience and significant working
relationships with major West Coast property owners, corporate tenants, municipalities and landowners given our over 70-year presence in the West Coast
markets;
our active development program and our future development pipeline of undeveloped land sites (see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations” for additional information pertaining to the
Company’s in-process and future development pipeline);
our capital recycling program (see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Liquidity and
Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership” for additional information pertaining to the Company’s capital recycling program and related property and
land dispositions);
our ability to capitalize on inflection points in a real estate cycle to add quality assets to our portfolio at substantial discounts to long-term value, through
either acquisition, development or redevelopment; and
•
our strong financial position that has and will continue to allow us to pursue attractive acquisition and development and redevelopment opportunities.
“Net Operating Income” subsequent to the adoption of Financial Standards Accounting Board Accounting Standards Codification 842 (“Topic 842”) is defined
as consolidated operating revenues (rental income and other property income) less consolidated operating expenses (property expenses, real estate taxes and
ground leases). Prior to the adoption of Topic 842 we defined Net Operating Income as consolidated operating revenues (rental income, tenant reimbursements and
other property income) less consolidated operating expenses (property expenses, real estate taxes, provision for bad debts and ground leases). “FFO” is Funds From
Operations available to common stockholders and common unitholders calculated in accordance with the 2018 Restated White Paper on FFO approved by the Board
of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). (See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations —Results of Operations” and “—Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measures: Funds From Operations” for a reconciliation of
these measures to generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) net income available to common stockholders.)
7
Operating Strategies. We focus on enhancing long-term growth in Net Operating Income and FFO from our properties by:
• maximizing cash flow from our properties through active leasing, early renewals and effective property management;
•
structuring leases to maximize returns;
• managing portfolio credit risk through effective underwriting, including the use of credit enhancements and interests in collateral to mitigate portfolio credit
risk;
• managing operating expenses through the efficient use of internal property management, leasing, marketing, financing, accounting, legal, and construction
and development management functions;
• maintaining and developing long-term relationships with a diverse tenant base;
•
•
continuing to effectively manage capital improvements to enhance our properties’ competitive advantages in their respective markets and improve the
efficiency of building systems;
continuing to expand our management team with individuals who have extensive regional and product-type experience and are highly knowledgeable in
their respective markets and product types; and
•
attracting and retaining motivated employees by providing financial and other incentives to meet our operating and financial goals.
Development and Redevelopment Strategies. We and our predecessors have developed office properties primarily located in California since 1947. As of
December 31, 2019, we had two projects in the tenant improvement phase totaling approximately 846,000 square feet of office and retail space and six projects under
construction totaling approximately 2.3 million square feet of office space and 564 residential units. In addition, our future development pipeline was comprised of
five potential development sites representing approximately 61 gross acres of undeveloped land on which we believe we have the potential to develop over 6.0
million square feet of office, life science, laboratory, residential and retail space, depending upon economic conditions. Our strategy with respect to development is
to:
•
•
own land sites in highly populated, amenity rich locations that are attractive to a broad array of tenants;
be the premier provider of modern and collaborative office and mixed-use projects on the West Coast with a focus on design and environment;
• maintain a disciplined approach by commencing development when appropriate based on market conditions, focusing on pre-leasing, developing in stages
or phasing, and cost control;
•
•
•
reinvest capital from dispositions of selective assets into new state-of-the-art development and acquisition opportunities with higher cash flow and rates of
return or future redevelopment;
execute on our development projects under construction and future development pipeline, including expanding entitlements; and
evaluate redevelopment opportunities in supply-constrained markets because such efforts generally achieve similar returns to new development with
reduced entitlement risk and shorter construction periods.
We may engage in the additional development or redevelopment of office, life science and mixed-use properties when market conditions support a favorable
risk-adjusted return on such development or redevelopment. We expect that our significant working relationships with tenants, municipalities and landowners on the
West Coast will give us further access to development and redevelopment opportunities. We cannot ensure that we will be able to successfully develop or
redevelop any of our properties or that we will have access to additional development or redevelopment opportunities.
8
Acquisition Strategies. We believe we are well positioned to acquire opportunistic properties and development and redevelopment opportunities as the result
of our extensive experience, strong financial position and ability to access capital. We continue to focus on growth opportunities in West Coast markets populated
by knowledge and creative based tenants in a variety of industries, including technology, media, healthcare, life sciences, entertainment and professional services.
Against the backdrop of market volatility, we expect to manage a strong balance sheet, execute on our development program and selectively evaluate opportunities
that add immediate Net Operating Income to our portfolio or play a strategic role in our future growth and that:
•
•
•
provide attractive yields and significant potential for growth in cash flow from property operations;
present growth opportunities in our existing or other strategic markets; and
demonstrate the potential for improved performance through intensive management, repositioning, capital investment and leasing that should result in
increased occupancy and rental revenues.
Financing Strategies. Our financing policies and objectives are determined by our board of directors. Our goal is to limit our dependence on leverage and
maintain a conservative ratio of debt-to-total market capitalization. As of December 31, 2019, our total debt as a percentage of total market capitalization was 28.3%,
which was calculated based on the quoted closing price per share of the Company’s common stock of $83.90 on December 31, 2019 (see “Item 7. Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company —Capitalization” for additional
information). Our financing strategies include:
• maintaining financial flexibility, including a low secured to unsecured debt ratio;
• maximizing our ability to access a variety of both public and private capital sources;
• maintaining a staggered debt maturity schedule in which the maturity dates of our debt are spread over several years to limit risk exposure at any particular
point in the capital and credit market cycles;
•
completing financing in advance of the need for capital;
• managing interest rate exposure by generally maintaining a greater amount of fixed-rate debt as compared to variable-rate debt; and
• maintaining our credit ratings.
We utilize multiple sources of capital, including borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, unsecured term loan facility, proceeds from the
issuance of public or private debt or equity securities and other bank and/or institutional borrowings and our capital recycling program, including strategic venture
sources. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain capital as needed on terms favorable to us or at all. (See the discussion under the caption “Item 7.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations” and “Item
1A. Risk Factors.”)
Sustainability Strategies. Our longstanding leadership in sustainability in real estate is globally recognized, and we have committed to achieving carbon neutral
operations by year-end 2020. Our vision is a resilient portfolio that minimizes the environmental impact of the development and operation of our buildings while
maximizing the health and productivity of our tenants, employees and communities as well as our financial returns. Management and our board of directors, through
the Corporate Social Responsibility and Sustainability Committee established in April 2018, oversee and advance the Company’s corporate social responsibility and
sustainability initiatives. They recognize that community engagement and sustainable operations benefit all of our constituencies and are key to preserving our
Company’s value and credibility.
As a result of our commitment to sustainability, we have been ranked first in sustainability performance in North America in the Listed Office category by the
Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (“GRESB”) six times and have also earned the highly competitive GRESB “Green Star” designation in each of the last
seven years for ranking
9
in the top 25% of companies worldwide in sustainability performance. We have been recognized with the US EPA ENERGY STAR® Partner of the Year Sustained
Excellence Award for the last five years, NAREIT’s Leader in the Light Award in the Listed Office category for the last six years and NAREIT’s Leader in the Light
Most Innovative award in 2018. For excellence in creating a diverse and inclusive culture, we are listed on the Bloomberg Gender Equality Index, which measures
companies on female leadership and talent pipeline, equal pay and gender pay parity, inclusive culture, sexual harassment policies and pro-women brand.
We manage our properties to offer the maximum degree of utility and operational efficiency to our tenants. We offer tenant sustainability programs focused on
helping our tenants reduce their energy and water consumption and increase their recycling diversion rates. We incorporate green lease language into 100% of our
new leases, including a cost recovery clause for resource-efficiency related capital expenditures in full-service gross leases, which seek to align tenant and landlord
interests on energy, water and waste efficiency. Green leases (also known as aligned leases, high performance leases or energy efficient leases) aim to align the
financial and energy incentives of building owners and tenants so they can work together to save money, conserve resources and ensure the efficient operation of
buildings. We have won the Institute for Market Transformation’s (“IMT’s”) Green Lease Leaders award four times. Energy consumption, water consumption, and
greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions data for the periods indicated based on the most recent available information, assured by DNV GL Business Assurance USA,

We build our current development projects to Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (“LEED”) specifications. All of our office development projects are
designed to achieve LEED certification, either LEED Platinum or Gold.
We are actively pursuing LEED certification for approximately 2.3 million square feet of office and life science space under construction. In addition, an analysis of
energy and water performance is included in our standard due diligence process for acquisitions, and reducing energy use year over year is a comprehensive goal
of our operational strategy. This is accomplished through systematic energy auditing, mechanical, lighting and other building upgrades, optimizing operations and
engaging tenants. During the past few years, we have significantly enhanced the sustainability profile of our portfolio, ending 2019 with 64% of our properties
LEED certified and 70% of our eligible properties ENERGY STAR certified (in each case as a percentage of our total or eligible rentable square feet as of December
31, 2019).
We identify climate change as a risk to our business, an opportunity for long-term value creation and a key driver in long-term strategic business decisions. These
risks and opportunities include transitional risks such as policy, market, technology and reputational concerns, as well as physical risks, and are a focus area for the
board of directors and management. Climate-related risks and opportunities are governed by the board of directors through the Corporate Social Responsibility and
Sustainability Committee (the “Committee”). In 2018, the Committee endorsed the
11
recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) and tasked management with assessing and reporting against climate related risk
for the Company. Recognizing the importance of reducing the Company’s greenhouse gas impact on the environment, we have committed to achieving carbon
neutral operations by December 31, 2020. This means that the entirety of our scope 1 and scope 2 emissions will be offset by this date through a combination of
energy efficiency measures and both onsite and offsite renewables. This exceeds our carbon reduction goals previously validated by Science-Based Targets.
Science-Based Targets is a collaboration between the Carbon Disclosure Project, the United Nations Global Compact, the World Resources Institute and the World
Wide Fund for Nature, which independently assesses and approves the carbon reduction goals of companies.
Significant Tenants
As of December 31, 2019, our 15 largest tenants in terms of annualized base rental revenues represented approximately 49.6% of our total annualized base rental
revenues, defined as annualized monthly contractual rents from existing tenants as of December 31, 2019. Annualized base rental revenue includes the impact of
straight-lining rent escalations and the amortization of free rent periods and excludes the impact of the following: amortization of deferred revenue related tenant-
funded tenant improvements, amortization of above/below market rents, amortization for lease incentives due under existing leases and expense reimbursement
revenue.
For further information on our 15 largest tenants and the composition of our tenant base, see “Item 2. Properties —Significant Tenants.”
Competition
We compete with several developers, owners, operators and acquirers of office, undeveloped land and other commercial real estate, including mixed-use and
residential real estate, many of which own properties similar to ours in the same submarkets in which our properties are located. For further discussion of the
potential impact of competitive conditions on our business, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”
Segment and Geographic Financial Information
During 2019 and 2018, we had one reportable segment, our office properties segment. For information about our office property revenues and long-lived assets
and other financial information, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Results of Operations.”
As of December 31, 2019, all of our properties and development projects were owned and all of our business was conducted in the state of California with the
exception of eight office properties, one development project under construction and one recently acquired future development project located in the state of
Washington. As of December 31, 2019, all of our properties and development projects were 100% owned, excluding four office properties owned by three
consolidated property partnerships and two development projects held in VIEs to facilitate potential future Section 1031 Exchanges, which have been consolidated
for financial reporting purposes (see Note 2 “Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this
report for further information).
Employees
As of December 31, 2019, we employed 267 people through the Operating Partnership, Kilroy Services, LLC, and Kilroy Realty TRS, Inc. We believe that
relations with our employees are good.
Environmental Regulations and Potential Liabilities
Government Regulations Relating to the Environment. Many laws and governmental regulations relating to the environment are applicable to our properties,
and changes in these laws and regulations, or their interpretation by agencies and the courts, occur frequently and may adversely affect us.
Existing conditions at some of our properties. Independent environmental consultants have conducted Phase I or similar environmental site assessments on
all of our properties. We generally obtain these assessments prior to the
12
acquisition of a property and may later update them as required for subsequent financing of the property, if a property is slated for disposition, or as requested by a
tenant. Consultants are required to perform Phase I assessments to American Society for Testing and Materials standards then-existing for Phase I site assessments
and typically include a historical review, a public records review, a visual inspection of the surveyed site, and the issuance of a written report. These assessments do
not generally include any soil or groundwater sampling or subsurface investigations; however, if a Phase I does recommend that soil or groundwater samples be
taken or other subsurface investigations take place, we generally perform such recommended actions. Depending on the age of the property, the Phase I may have
included an assessment of asbestos-containing materials or a separate hazardous materials survey may have been conducted. For properties where asbestos-
containing materials were identified or suspected, an operations and maintenance plan was generally prepared and implemented.
Historical operations at or near some of our properties, including the presence of underground or above ground storage tanks, various sites uses that involved
hazardous substances, the landfilling of hazardous substances and solid waste, and migration of contamination from other sites, may have caused soil or
groundwater contamination. In some instances, the prior owners of the affected properties conducted remediation of known contamination in the soils on our
properties, we are required to conduct further environmental clean-up and environmental closure activities at certain properties, and residual contamination could
pose environmental, health, and safety risks if not appropriately addressed. We may need to investigate or remediate contaminated soil, soil gas, landfill gas, and
groundwater, and we may also need to conduct landfill closure and post-closure activities, including, for example, the implementation of groundwater and methane
monitoring systems and impervious cover, and the costs of such work could exceed projected or budgeted amounts. To protect the health and safety of site
occupants and others, we may be required to implement and operate safeguards, including, for example, vapor intrusion mitigation systems and building protection
systems to address methane. We may need to modify our methods of construction or face increased construction costs as a result of environmental conditions, and
we may face obligations under agreements with governmental authorities with respect to the management of such environmental conditions. If releases from our
sites migrate offsite, or if our site redevelopment activities cause or contribute to a migration of hazardous substances, neighbors or others could make claims
against us, such as for property damage, personal injury, or cost recovery.
As of December 31, 2019, we had accrued environmental remediation liabilities of approximately $80.7 million recorded on our consolidated balance sheets in
connection with certain of our in-process and future development projects. The accrued environmental remediation liabilities represent the remaining costs we
estimate we will incur prior to and during the development process at various development acquisition sites. These estimates, which we developed with the
assistance of third party experts, consist primarily of the removal of contaminated soil, performing environmental closure activities, constructing remedial systems
and other related costs since we are required to dispose of any existing contaminated soil, and sometimes perform other environmental closure or remedial activities,
when we develop new buildings at these sites. It is possible that we could incur additional environmental remediation costs in connection with these development
projects. However, potential additional environmental costs cannot be reasonably estimated at this time and certain changes in estimates could occur as the site
conditions, final project timing, design elements, actual soil conditions and other aspects of the projects, which may depend upon municipal and other approvals
beyond the control of the Company, are determined. See Note 18 “Commitments and Contingencies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report
for additional information.
Other than the accrued environmental liabilities recorded in connection with certain of our development projects, we are not aware of any such condition,
liability, or concern by any other means that would give rise to material environmental liabilities. However, our assessments may have failed to reveal all
environmental conditions, liabilities, or compliance concerns; there may be material environmental conditions, liabilities, or compliance concerns that arose at a
property after the review was completed; future laws, ordinances, or regulations may impose material additional environmental liability; and environmental
conditions at our properties may be affected in the future by tenants, third parties, or the condition of land or operations near our properties, such as the presence of
underground storage tanks or migrating plumes. We cannot be certain that costs of future environmental compliance will not have an adverse effect on our financial
condition, results of operations, cash flow, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and
distributions to security holders.
Use of hazardous materials by some of our tenants. Some of our tenants handle hazardous substances and wastes on our properties as part of their routine
operations. Environmental laws and regulations may subject these tenants,
13
and potentially us, to liability resulting from such activities. We generally require our tenants in their leases to comply with these environmental laws and regulations
and to indemnify us for any related liabilities. As of December 31, 2019, other than routine cleaning materials, approximately 2-4% of our tenants handled hazardous
substances and/or wastes on approximately 1-3% of the aggregate square footage of our properties as part of their routine operations. These tenants are primarily
involved in the life sciences business. The hazardous substances and wastes are primarily comprised of diesel fuel for emergency generators and small quantities of
lab and light manufacturing chemicals including, but not limited to, alcohol, ammonia, carbon dioxide, cryogenic gases, dichlorophenol, methane, naturalyte acid,
nitrogen, nitrous oxide, and oxygen which are routinely used by life science companies. We are not aware of any material noncompliance, liability, or claim relating to
hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products in connection with any of our properties, and management does not believe that on-going activities by our
tenants will have a material adverse effect on our operations.
Costs related to government regulation and private litigation over environmental matters. Under applicable environmental laws and regulations, we may be
liable for the costs of removal, remediation, or disposal of certain hazardous or toxic substances present or released on our properties. These laws could impose
liability without regard to whether we are responsible for, or even knew of, the presence or release of the hazardous materials. Government investigations and
remediation actions may have substantial costs, and the presence or release of hazardous substances on a property could result in governmental clean-up actions,
personal injury actions, or similar claims by private plaintiffs.
Potential environmental liabilities may exceed our environmental insurance coverage limits, transactional indemnities or holdbacks. We carry what we
believe to be commercially reasonable environmental insurance. Our environmental insurance policies are subject to various terms, conditions and exclusions.
Similarly, in connection with some transactions we obtain environmental indemnities and holdbacks that may not be honored by the indemnitors, may be less than
the resulting liabilities or may otherwise fail to address the liabilities adequately. Therefore, we cannot provide any assurance that our insurance coverage or
transactional indemnities will be sufficient or that our liability, if any, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash
flows, quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to security holders.
Litigation
In 2017, lawsuits were filed in San Francisco County Superior Court alleging vertical and differential settlement at the Millennium Tower property located at 301
Mission Street in San Francisco, California. The Millennium Tower is not owned by the Company but located in proximity to one of the Company’s properties
located at 350 Mission Street. The lawsuits allege that conduct of various entities, including those affiliated with other neighboring properties, contributed to the
settlement of the Millennium Tower. Two defendants asserted cross-claims for equitable indemnification against certain of the Company’s entities in connection
with the development and construction-related activities at the Company’s 350 Mission Street property. One of those parties has voluntarily dismissed its cross
claims against the Company’s entities. In August 2019, all parties to the lawsuits, including the Company’s entities, reached a settlement in-principle and agreed to
stay the litigation pending the negotiation and execution of global settlement documentation. If such settlement documentation is not executed in accordance with
the procedural timeline established by the parties to the lawsuit (as the same may be extended), the stay may be lifted. The Company continues to dispute the
allegations and deny responsibility for the claims alleged in the lawsuits.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following section sets forth material factors that may adversely affect our business and operations. The following factors, as well as the factors discussed
in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations”
and other information contained in this report, should be considered in evaluating us and our business.
Risks Related to our Business and Operations
Global market, economic and geopolitical conditions may adversely affect our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition and those of
our tenants. Our business may be adversely affected by global market, economic and geopolitical conditions, including general global economic and political
uncertainty and dislocations in the credit markets. If these conditions become more volatile or worsen, our and our tenant’s business, results of operations, liquidity
and financial condition and those of our tenants may be adversely affected as a result of the following consequences, among others:
•
•
•
•
•
the financial condition of our tenants, many of which are technology; life science and healthcare; finance, insurance and real estate; media and professional
business and other service firms, may be adversely affected, which may result in tenant defaults under leases due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity,
operational failures or for other reasons;
significant job losses in the financial and professional services industries may occur, which may decrease demand for our office space, causing market
rental rates and property values to be negatively impacted;
our ability to obtain financing on terms and conditions that we find acceptable, or at all, may be limited, which could reduce our ability to pursue acquisition
and development opportunities and refinance existing debt, reduce our returns from our acquisition and development activities and increase our future
interest expense;
reduced values of our properties may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or to obtain debt financing secured by our properties and may
reduce the availability of unsecured loans; and
one or more lenders under the Operating Partnership’s unsecured revolving credit facility could refuse to fund their financing commitment to us or could fail
and we may not be able to replace the financing commitment of any such lenders on favorable terms, or at all.
All of our properties are located in California and greater Seattle, Washington and we may therefore be susceptible to adverse economic conditions and
regulations, as well as natural disasters, in those areas. Because all of our properties are concentrated in California and greater Seattle, we may be exposed to
greater economic risks than if we owned a more geographically dispersed portfolio. Further, within California, our properties are concentrated in Greater Los Angeles,
San Diego County and the San Francisco Bay Area, exposing us to risks associated with those specific areas. We are susceptible to adverse developments in the
economic and regulatory environments of California and greater Seattle (such as periods of economic slowdown or recession, business layoffs or downsizing,
industry slowdowns, relocations of businesses, increases in real estate and other taxes, costs of complying with governmental regulations or increased regulation
and other factors), as well as adverse weather conditions and natural disasters that occur in those areas (such as earthquakes, wind, landslides, droughts, fires and
other events). For example, many of our assets are in zones that have been impacted by drought and, as such, face the risk of increased water costs and potential
fines and/or penalties for high consumption. In addition, California is also regarded as more litigious and more highly regulated and taxed than many other states,
which may reduce demand for office space in California.
Any adverse developments in the economy or real estate market in California and the surrounding region, or in greater Seattle or any decrease in demand for
office space resulting from the California or greater Seattle regulatory or business environment could impact our ability to generate revenues sufficient to meet our
operating expenses or other obligations, which would adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our
securities and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.
15
Our performance and the market value of our securities are subject to risks associated with our investments in real estate assets and with trends in the real
estate industry. Our economic performance and the value of our real estate assets and, consequently the market value of the Company’s securities, are subject to the
risk that our properties may not generate revenues sufficient to meet our operating expenses or other obligations. A deficiency of this nature would adversely impact
our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay
dividends and distributions to our security holders.
Events and conditions applicable to owners and operators of real estate that are beyond our control and could impact our economic performance and the value
of our real estate assets may include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
local oversupply or reduction in demand for office, mixed-use or other commercial space, which may result in decreasing rental rates and greater
concessions to tenants;
inability to collect rent from tenants;
vacancies or inability to rent space on favorable terms or at all;
inability to finance property development and acquisitions on favorable terms or at all;
increased operating costs, including insurance premiums, utilities and real estate taxes;
costs of complying with changes in governmental regulations;
the relative illiquidity of real estate investments;
declines in real estate asset valuations, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or obtain or maintain debt financing;
changing submarket demographics;
changes in space utilization by our tenants due to technology, economic conditions and business culture;
the development of harmful mold or other airborne toxins or contaminants that could damage our properties or expose us to third-party liabilities; and
property damage resulting from seismic activity or other natural disasters.
We depend upon significant tenants, and the loss of a significant tenant could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, ability to
borrow funds and cash flows. As of December 31, 2019, our 15 largest tenants represented approximately 49.6% of total annualized base rental revenues. See further
discussion on the composition of our tenants by industry and our largest tenants under “Item 2. Properties —Significant Tenants.”
Our financial condition, results of operations, ability to borrow funds and cash flows would be adversely affected if any of our significant tenants fails to renew
its lease(s), renew its lease(s) on terms less favorable to us, or becomes bankrupt or insolvent or otherwise unable to satisfy its lease obligations.
Downturn in tenants’ businesses may reduce our revenues and cash flows. For the year ended December 31, 2019, we derived approximately 98.7% of our
revenues from rental income. A tenant may experience a downturn in its business, which may weaken its financial condition and result in its failure to make timely
rental payments or result in defaults under our leases. In the event of default by a tenant, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlord and may incur
substantial costs in protecting our investment.
The bankruptcy or insolvency of a major tenant also may adversely affect the income produced by our properties. If any tenant becomes a debtor in a case
under federal bankruptcy law, we cannot evict the tenant solely because of the bankruptcy. In addition, the bankruptcy court might permit the tenant to reject and
terminate its lease with us. Our
16
claim against the tenant for unpaid and future rent could be subject to a statutory cap that might be substantially less than the remaining rent actually owed under
the lease. Therefore, our claim for unpaid rent would likely not be paid in full. Any losses resulting from the bankruptcy of any of our existing tenants could
adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service
obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.
A large percentage of our tenants operate in a concentrated group of industries and downturns in these industries could adversely affect our financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows. As of December 31, 2019, as a percentage of our annualized base rental revenue for the stabilized portfolio, 51% of
our tenants operated in the technology industry, 15% in the life science and health care industries, 13% in the media industry, 8% in the finance, insurance and real
estate industries, 5% in the professional, business and other services industries and 8% in other industries. As we continue our development and potential
acquisition activities in markets populated by knowledge and creative based tenants in the technology and media industries, our tenant mix could become more
concentrated, further exposing us to risks associated with those industries. For a further discussion of the composition of our tenants by industry, see “Item 2.
Properties —Significant Tenants.” An economic downturn in any of these industries, or in any industry in which a significant number of our tenants currently or
may in the future operate, could negatively impact the financial condition of such tenants and cause them to fail to make timely rental payments or default on lease
obligations, fail to renew their leases or renew their leases on terms less favorable to us, become bankrupt or insolvent, or otherwise become unable to satisfy their
obligations to us. As a result, a downturn in an industry in which a significant number of our tenants operate could adversely affect our financial conditions, result
of operations and cash flows.
We may be unable to renew leases or re-lease available space. Most of our income is derived from the rent earned from our tenants. We had office space
representing approximately 5.4% of the total square footage of our stabilized office properties that was not occupied as of December 31, 2019. In addition, leases
representing approximately 7.7% and 6.8% of the leased rentable square footage of our properties are scheduled to expire in 2020 and 2021, respectively. Of the
leases scheduled to expire in 2020 and 2021, 28% and 21% of the rentable square footage scheduled to expire was re-leased, respectively, as of December 31, 2019.
Above market rental rates on some of our properties may force us to renew or re-lease expiring leases at rates below current lease rates. We cannot provide any
assurance that leases will be renewed, available space will be re-leased or that our rental rates will be equal to or above the current rental rates. If the average rental
rates for our properties decrease, existing tenants do not renew their leases, or available space is not re-leased, our financial condition, results of operations, cash
flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders
could be adversely affected. For additional information on our scheduled lease expirations, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations —Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations.”
We are subject to governmental regulations that may affect the development, redevelopment and use of our properties. Our properties are subject to regulation
under federal laws, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (the “ADA”), pursuant to which all public accommodations must meet federal requirements
related to access and use by disabled persons, and state and local laws addressing earthquake, fire and life safety requirements. Although we believe that our
properties substantially comply with requirements under applicable governmental regulations, none of our properties have been audited or investigated for
compliance by any regulatory agency. If we were not in compliance with material provisions of the ADA or other regulations affecting our properties, we might be
required to take remedial action, which could include making modifications or renovations to our properties. Federal, state, or local governments may also enact
future laws and regulations that could require us to make significant modifications or renovations to our properties. If we were to incur substantial costs to comply
with the ADA or any other regulations, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy
our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders could be adversely affected.
Our properties are subject to land use rules and regulations that govern our development, redevelopment and use of our properties, such as Title 24 of the
California Code of Regulations (“Title 24”), which prescribes building energy efficiency standards for residential and nonresidential buildings in the State of
California. If we were not in compliance with material provisions of Title 24 or other regulations affecting our properties, we might be required to take remedial action,
which could include making modifications or renovations to our properties. Changes in the existing land use rules and regulations and approval process that restrict
or delay our ability to develop, redevelop or use our properties
17
(such as potential restrictions on the use and/or density of new developments, water use and other uses and activities) or that prescribe additional standards could
have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt
service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.
We may not be able to meet our debt service obligations. As of December 31, 2019, we had approximately $3.6 billion aggregate principal amount of
indebtedness, of which $5.1 million in principal payments will be paid during the year ended December 31, 2020. Our total debt at December 31, 2019 represented
28.3% of our total market capitalization (which we define as the aggregate of our long-term debt and the market value of the Company’s common stock and the
Operating Partnership’s common units of limited partnership interest, or common units, based on the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock as of
that date). For the calculation of our market capitalization and additional information on debt maturities, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company —Capitalization” and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership —Liquidity Uses.”
Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness and to fund our operations, working capital, and capital expenditures, depends on our ability
to generate cash flow in the future. Our cash flow is subject to general economic, industry, financial, competitive, operating, legislative, regulatory, environmental
and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
The instruments and agreements governing some of our outstanding indebtedness (including borrowings under the Operating Partnership’s unsecured
revolving credit facility, unsecured term loan facility and note purchase agreements) contain provisions that require us to repurchase for cash or repay that
indebtedness under specified circumstances or upon the occurrence of specified events (including upon the acquisition by any person or group of more than a
specified percentage of the aggregate voting power of all the Company’s issued and outstanding voting stock, upon certain changes in the composition of a
majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors, if the Company or one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries ceases to be the sole general partner of the
Operating Partnership or if the Company ceases to own, directly or indirectly, at least 60% of the voting equity interests in the Operating Partnership), and our future
debt agreements and debt securities may contain similar provisions or may require that we repay or repurchase or offer to repurchase for cash the applicable
indebtedness under specified circumstances or upon the occurrence of specified changes of control of the Company or the Operating Partnership or other events.
We may not have sufficient funds to pay our indebtedness when due (including upon any such required repurchase, repayment or offer to repurchase), and we may
not be able to arrange for the financing necessary to make those payments or repurchases on favorable terms or at all. In addition, our ability to make required
payments on our indebtedness when due (including upon any such required repurchase, repayment or offer to repurchase) may be limited by the terms of other debt
instruments or agreements. Our failure to pay amounts due in respect of any of our indebtedness when due would generally constitute an event of default under the
instrument governing that indebtedness, which could permit the holders of that indebtedness to require the immediate repayment of that indebtedness in full and, in
the case of secured indebtedness, could allow them to sell the collateral securing that indebtedness and use the proceeds to repay that indebtedness. Moreover, any
acceleration of or default in respect of any of our indebtedness could, in turn, constitute an event of default under other debt instruments or agreements, thereby
resulting in the acceleration and required repayment of that other indebtedness. Any of these events could materially adversely affect our ability to make payments
of principal and interest on our indebtedness when due and could prevent us from making those payments altogether.
We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future sources of cash will be available to us in an amount
sufficient to enable us to pay amounts due on our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs, including cash distributions to stockholders necessary to
maintain the Company’s REIT qualification. Additionally, if we incur additional indebtedness in connection with future acquisitions or for any other purpose, our
debt service obligations could increase.
We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness or obtain additional financing will
depend on, among other things:
•
our financial condition, results of operations and market conditions at the time; and
18
•
restrictions in the agreements governing our indebtedness.
As a result, we may not be able to refinance our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we do not generate sufficient cash flow from
operations, and additional borrowings or refinancings or proceeds of asset sales or other sources of cash are not available to us, we may not have sufficient cash to
enable us to meet all of our obligations. Accordingly, if we cannot service our indebtedness, we may have to take actions such as seeking additional equity
financing, delaying capital expenditures, or entering into strategic acquisitions and alliances. Any of these events or circumstances could have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the trading price of our securities and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay
dividends and distributions to our security holders. In addition, foreclosures could create taxable income without accompanying cash proceeds, which could require
us to borrow or sell assets to raise the funds necessary to pay amounts due on our indebtedness and to meet the REIT distribution requirements discussed below,
even if such actions are not on favorable terms.
The covenants in the agreements governing the Operating Partnership’s unsecured revolving credit facility, unsecured term loan facility and note purchase
agreements may limit our ability to make distributions to the holders of our common stock. The Operating Partnership’s $750.0 million unsecured revolving credit
facility, $150.0 million unsecured term loan facility and note purchase agreements contain financial covenants that could limit the amount of distributions payable by
us on our common stock and any preferred stock we may issue in the future. We rely on cash distributions we receive from the Operating Partnership to pay
distributions on our common stock and any preferred stock we may issue in the future and to satisfy our other cash needs. The agreements governing the unsecured
revolving credit facility, the unsecured term loan facility and the note purchase agreements provide that, if the Operating Partnership fails to pay any principal of, or
interest on, any borrowings or other amounts payable under such agreement when due or during any other event of default under such revolving credit facility, loan
facility and the unsecured private placement notes, the Operating Partnership may make only those partnership distributions that result in distributions to us in an
amount sufficient to permit us to make distributions to our stockholders that we reasonably believe are necessary to (a) maintain our qualification as a REIT for
federal and state income tax purposes and (b) avoid the payment of federal or state income or excise tax. Any limitation on our ability to make distributions to our
stockholders, whether as a result of these provisions in the unsecured revolving credit facility, the unsecured term loan facility, the note purchase agreements or
otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on the market value of our common stock.
A downgrade in our credit ratings could materially adversely affect our business and financial condition. The credit ratings assigned to the Operating
Partnership’s debt securities and any preferred stock we may issue in the future could change based upon, among other things, our results of operations and
financial condition. These ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies, and we cannot assure you that any rating will not be changed or
withdrawn by a rating agency in the future if, in its judgment, circumstances warrant. Moreover, these credit ratings do not apply to our common stock and are not
recommendations to buy, sell or hold our common stock or any other securities. If any of the credit rating agencies that have rated the Operating Partnership’s debt
securities or any preferred stock we may issue in the future downgrades or lowers its credit rating, or if any credit rating agency indicates that it has placed any such
rating on a so-called “watch list” for a possible downgrading or lowering or otherwise indicates that its outlook for that rating is negative, it could have a material
adverse effect on our costs and availability of capital, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows,
the trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.
We face significant competition, which may decrease the occupancy and rental rates of our properties. We compete with several developers, owners and
operators of office, undeveloped land and other commercial real estate, including mixed-use and residential real estate, many of which own properties similar to ours
in the same submarkets in which our properties are located but which have lower occupancy rates than our properties. Therefore, our competitors have an incentive
to decrease rental rates until their available space is leased. If our competitors offer space at rental rates below the rates currently charged by us for comparable
space, we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below those currently charged in order to retain tenants when our tenant leases expire. As a result, our
financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay
dividends and distributions to our security holders may be adversely affected.
19
In order to maintain the quality of our properties and successfully compete against other properties, we must periodically spend money to maintain, repair
and renovate our properties, which reduces our cash flows. If our properties are not as attractive to current and prospective tenants in terms of rent, services,
condition or location as properties owned by our competitors, we could lose tenants or suffer lower rental rates. As a result, we may from time to time be required to
make significant capital expenditures to maintain the competitiveness of our properties. There can be no assurances that any such expenditure would result in higher
occupancy or higher rental rates, or deter existing tenants from relocating to properties owned by our competitors.
Potential casualty losses, such as earthquake losses, may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We carry
comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage, rental loss, and terrorism insurance covering all of our properties. Management believes the policy specifications
and insured limits are appropriate given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage and industry practice. We do not carry insurance for generally uninsurable
losses such as loss from riots or acts of God. In addition, all of our properties are located in earthquake-prone areas. We carry earthquake insurance on our
properties in an amount and with deductibles that management believes are commercially reasonable. However, the amount of our earthquake insurance coverage
may not be sufficient to cover losses from earthquakes. We may also discontinue earthquake insurance on some or all of our properties in the future if the cost of
premiums for earthquake insurance exceeds the value of the coverage discounted for the risk of loss. If we experience a loss that is uninsured or which exceeds
policy limits, we could lose the capital invested in the damaged properties as well as the anticipated future cash flows from those properties. Further, if the damaged
properties are subject to recourse indebtedness, we would continue to be liable for the indebtedness, even if the properties were irreparable.
We may not be able to rebuild our existing properties to their existing specifications if we experience a substantial or comprehensive loss of such properties.
In the event that we experience a substantial or comprehensive loss of one of our properties, we may not be able to rebuild such property to its existing
specifications. Further, reconstruction or improvement of such property could potentially require significant upgrades to meet zoning and building code
requirements or be subject to environmental and other legal restrictions.
Our business is subject to risks associated with climate change and our sustainability strategies. Climate change could trigger extreme weather and changes in
precipitation, temperature, and air quality, all of which may result in physical damage to, or a decrease in demand for, our properties located in the areas affected by
these conditions. Should the impact of climate change be severe or occur for lengthy periods of time, our financial condition or results of operations would be
adversely affected.
Recognizing the importance of climate change and reducing our greenhouse gas impact on the environment, our sustainability strategies include a commitment
to achieving carbon neutral operations by December 31, 2020. This means that the entirety of our scope 1 and scope 2 emissions will be offset by this date through a
combination of energy efficiency measures and both onsite and offsite renewables. Scope 1 emissions represent those produced by onsite natural gas consumption
procured by us, and Scope 2 emissions represent those produced by onsite electricity consumption procured by us. Our own efforts to reduce our greenhouse gas
impact on the environment and/or comply with changes in federal and state laws and regulations on climate change could result in significant capital expenditures to
improve the energy efficiency of our existing properties or properties we may acquire. Changes to such law and regulations could also result in increased operating
costs at our properties (for example, through increased utility costs). Moreover, if we are unable to achieve carbon neutral operations by our targeted date or comply
with laws and regulations on climate change, our reputation among our tenants and investors may be damaged and we may incur fines and/or penalties.
Our properties are located in West Coast markets of the United States. To the extent that climate change impacts changes in weather patterns, our markets could
experience increases in extreme weather and rising sea levels. For example, many of our assets are in zones that have been impacted by drought and, as such, face
the risk of increased water costs and potential fines and/or penalties for high consumption. We endeavor to mitigate these risks through comprehensive, proactive
water reduction efforts throughout our portfolio, including domestic fixture upgrades, cooling tower optimizations, a comprehensive leak detection program and
irrigation systems retrofits. We also incorporate green lease language into 100% of our new leases, including a cost recover clause for resource-efficiency related
capital expenditures in full-service gross leases, which aim to align our and our tenant’s interests on energy, water and waste efficiency. In addition, we are building
our current development projects to LEED specifications, and all of our office
20
development projects are now designed to achieve LEED certification, either LEED Platinum or Gold. However, there can be no assurances that we will successfully
mitigate the risk of increased water costs and potential fines and/or penalties for high consumption or that we will be able to fully recoup any capital expenditures we
incur in connection with our green leases. Moreover, there can be no assurance that our development projects will be able to achieve the anticipated LEED
certifications or that any of our sustainability strategies will result in reduced operating costs, higher occupancy or higher rental rates or deter our existing tenants
from relocating to properties owned by our competitors. Over time, these conditions could result in declining demand for space at our properties or in our inability to
operate the buildings as currently intended or at all. Climate change may also have indirect effects on our business by increasing the cost of, or decreasing the
availability of, property insurance on terms we find acceptable or at all, or by increasing the cost of energy or water. There can be no assurance that climate change
will not have a material adverse effect on our properties, operations or business.
We are subject to environmental and health and safety laws and regulations, and any costs to comply with, or liabilities arising under, such laws and
regulations could be material. As an owner, operator, manager, acquirer and developer of real properties, we are subject to environmental and health and safety
laws and regulations. Certain of these laws and regulations impose joint and several liability, without regard to fault, for investigation and clean-up costs on current
and former owners and operators of real property and persons who have disposed of or released hazardous substances into the environment. At some of our
properties, there are asbestos-containing materials, or tenants routinely handle hazardous substances as part of their operations. In addition, historical operations
and conditions, including the presence of underground storage tanks, various site uses that involved hazardous substances, the landfilling of hazardous substances
and solid waste, and migration of contamination from other sites, have caused soil or groundwater contamination at or near some of our properties. Although we
believe that the prior owners of the affected properties or other persons may have conducted remediation of known contamination at many of these properties, not
all such contamination has been remediated, further clean-up or environmental closure activities at certain of these properties is or may be required, and residual
contamination could pose environmental, health, and safety risks if not appropriately addressed. We may need to investigate or remediate contaminated soil, soil
gas, landfill gas, and groundwater, and we may also need to conduct landfill closure and post-closure activities, including, for example, the implementation of
groundwater and methane monitoring systems and impervious cover, and the costs of such work could exceed projected or budgeted amounts. To protect the health
and safety of site occupants and others, we may be required to implement and operate safeguards, including, for example, vapor intrusion mitigation systems and
building protection systems to address methane. We may need to modify our methods of construction or face increased construction costs as a result of
environmental conditions, and we may face obligations under agreements with governmental authorities with respect to the management of such environmental
conditions. If releases from our sites migrate offsite, or if our site redevelopment activities cause or contribute to a migration of hazardous substances, neighbors or
others could make claims against us, such as for property damage, personal injury, cost recovery, or natural resources damage. As of December 31, 2019, we had
accrued environmental remediation liabilities of approximately $80.7 million recorded on our consolidated balance sheets in connection with certain of our in-process
and future development projects. The accrued environmental remediation liabilities represent the costs we estimate we will incur when we commence development at
various development acquisition sites. These estimates, which we developed with the assistance of third party experts, consist primarily of the removal of
contaminated soil, performing environmental closure activities, construction remedial systems, and other related costs since we are required to dispose of any
existing contaminated soil, and sometimes perform other environmental closure or remedial activities, when we develop new office properties as these sites. It is
possible that we could incur additional environmental remediation costs in connection with future development projects. However, potential additional
environmental costs cannot be reasonably estimated at this time and certain changes in estimates could occur as the site conditions, final project timing, design
elements, actual soil conditions and other aspects of the projects, which may depend upon municipal and other approvals beyond the control of the Company, are
determined. Unknown or unremediated contamination or compliance with existing or new environmental or health and safety laws and regulations could require us to
incur costs or liabilities that could be material. See “Item 1. Business —Environmental Regulations and Potential Liabilities” and Note 18 “Commitments and
Contingencies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report.
We may be unable to complete acquisitions and successfully operate acquired properties. We continually evaluate the market of available properties and may
continue to acquire office or mixed-use properties and undeveloped land when strategic opportunities exist. Our ability to acquire properties on favorable terms and
successfully operate them is subject to various risks, including the following:
21
• we may potentially be unable to acquire a desired property because of competition from other real estate investors with significant capital, including both
publicly traded and private REITs, institutional investment funds and other real estate investors;
•
•
even if we are able to acquire a desired property, competition from other real estate investors may significantly increase the purchase price;
even if we enter into agreements for the acquisition of a desired property, we may be unable to complete such acquisitions because they remain subject to
customary conditions to closing, including the completion of due diligence investigations to management’s satisfaction;
• we may be unable to finance acquisitions on favorable terms or at all;
• we may spend more than budgeted amounts in operating costs or to make necessary improvements or renovations to acquired properties;
• we may lease acquired properties at economic lease terms different than projected;
• we may acquire properties that are subject to liabilities for which we may have limited or no recourse; and
• we may be unable to complete an acquisition after making a nonrefundable deposit and incurring certain other acquisition-related costs.
If we cannot finance property acquisitions on favorable terms or operate acquired properties to meet financial expectations, our financial condition, results of
operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our
security holders could be adversely affected.
There are significant risks associated with property acquisition, development and redevelopment. We may be unable to successfully complete and operate
acquired, developed and redeveloped properties, and it is possible that:
• we may be unable to lease acquired, developed or redeveloped properties on lease terms projected at the time of acquisition, development or redevelopment
or within budgeted timeframes;
•
the operating expenses at acquired, developed or redeveloped properties may be greater than projected at the time of acquisition, development or
redevelopment, resulting in our investment being less profitable than we expected;
• we may not commence or complete development or redevelopment properties on schedule or within budgeted amounts or at all;
• we may not be able to develop or redevelop the estimated square footage and other features of our development and redevelopment properties;
• we may suspend development or redevelopment projects after construction has begun due to changes in economic conditions or other factors, and this
may result in the write-off of costs, payment of additional costs or increases in overall costs when the development or redevelopment project is restarted;
• we may expend funds on and devote management’s time to acquisition, development or redevelopment properties that we may not complete and as a result
we may lose deposits or fail to recover expenses already incurred;
• we may encounter delays or refusals in obtaining all necessary zoning, land use, and other required entitlements, and building, occupancy, and other
required governmental permits and authorizations;
22
• we may encounter delays or unforeseen cost increases associated with building materials or construction services resulting from trade tensions,
disruptions, tariffs, duties or restrictions or an outbreak of an epidemic or pandemic;
• we may encounter delays, refusals, unforeseen cost increases and other impairments resulting from third-party litigation; and
• we may fail to obtain the financial results expected from properties we acquire, develop or redevelop.
If one or more of these events were to occur in connection with our acquired properties, undeveloped land, or development or redevelopment properties under
construction, we could be required to recognize an impairment loss. These events could also have an adverse impact on our financial condition, results of
operations, cash flow, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our
security holders.
While we historically have acquired, developed and redeveloped office properties in California markets, over the past few years we have acquired properties in
greater Seattle, where we currently have eight properties, one development project under construction and one recently acquired future development project, and
may in the future acquire, develop or redevelop properties for other uses and expand our business to other geographic regions where we expect the development or
acquisition of property to result in favorable risk-adjusted returns on our investment. Presently, we do not possess the same level of familiarity with other outside
markets, which could adversely affect our ability to acquire, develop or redevelop properties or to achieve expected performance.
We face risks associated with the development of mixed-use commercial properties. We are currently developing, and in the future may develop, properties
either alone or through joint ventures that are known as “mixed-use” developments. This means that in addition to the development of office space, the project may
also include space for residential, retail or other commercial purposes. Generally, we have less experience developing and managing non-office real estate. As a
result, if a development project includes non-office space, we may develop that space ourselves or seek to partner with a third-party developer with more experience.
If we do not partner with such a developer, or if we choose to develop the space ourselves, we would be exposed to specific risks associated with the development
and ownership of non-office real estate. In addition, if we elect to participate in the development through a joint venture, we may be exposed to the risks associated
with the failure of the other party to complete the development as expected, which could require that we identify another joint venture partner and/or complete the
project ourselves (including providing any necessary financing). In the case of residential properties, these risks include competition for prospective tenants from
other operators whose properties may be perceived to offer a better location or better amenities or whose rent may be perceived as a better value given the quality,
location and amenities that the tenant seeks. With residential properties, we will also compete against apartments, condominiums and single-family homes that are
for sale or rent. Because we have less experience with residential properties, we may retain third parties to manage these properties. If we decide to wholly own a
non-office project and hire a third-party manager, we could be dependent on that party and its key personnel to provide services to us, and we may not find a
suitable replacement if the management agreement is terminated, or if key personnel leave or otherwise become unavailable to us.
Joint venture investments could be adversely affected by our lack of sole decision-making authority, our reliance on co-venturers' financial condition, and
disputes between us and our co-venturers and could expose us to potential liabilities and losses. In addition to the 100 First LLC and 303 Second LLC strategic
ventures and the Redwood City Partners, LLC venture, we may continue to co-invest in the future with third parties through partnerships, joint ventures or other
entities, or through acquiring non-controlling interests in, or sharing responsibility for, managing the affairs of a property, partnership, joint venture or other entity,
which may subject us to risks that may not be present with other methods of ownership, including the following:
• we would not be able to exercise sole decision-making authority regarding the property, partnership, joint venture or other entity, which would allow for
impasses on decisions that could restrict our ability to sell or transfer our interests in such entity or such entity’s ability to transfer or sell its assets;
•
partners or co-venturers might become bankrupt or fail to fund their share of required capital contributions, which could delay construction or development
of a property or increase our financial commitment to the
23
•
•
•
partnership or joint venture;
partners or co-venturers may pursue economic or other business interests, policies or objectives that are competitive or inconsistent with ours;
if we become a limited partner or non-managing member in any partnership or limited liability company, and such entity takes or expects to take actions that
could jeopardize our status as a REIT or require us to pay tax, we may be forced to dispose of our interest in such entity;
disputes between us and partners or co-venturers may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses and prevent our officers and/or
directors from focusing their time and effort on our business; and
• we may, in certain circumstances, be liable for the actions of our third-party partners or co-venturers.
We own certain properties subject to ground leases and other restrictive agreements that limit our uses of the properties, restrict our ability to sell or
otherwise transfer the properties and expose us to the loss of the properties if such agreements are breached by us, terminated or not renewed. As of December 31,
2019, we owned fourteen office buildings, located on various land parcels and in various regions, which we lease individually on a long-term basis. As of
December 31, 2019, we had approximately 2.0 million aggregate rentable square feet, or 15.2% of our total stabilized portfolio, of rental space located on these leased
parcels and we may in the future invest in additional properties that are subject to ground leases or other similar restrictive arrangements. Many of these ground
leases and other restrictive agreements impose significant limitations on our uses of the subject property, restrict our ability to sell or otherwise transfer our interests
in the property or restrict our leasing of the property. These restrictions may limit our ability to timely sell or exchange the properties, impair the properties’ value or
negatively impact our ability to find suitable tenants for the properties. In addition, if we default under the terms of any particular lease, we may lose the ownership
rights to the property subject to the lease. Upon expiration of a lease, we may not be able to renegotiate a new lease on favorable terms, if at all. The loss of the
ownership rights to these properties or an increase of rental expense could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, the
quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.
Real estate assets are illiquid, and we may not be able to sell our properties when we desire. Our investments in our properties are relatively illiquid, limiting
our ability to sell our properties quickly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. In addition, the Code generally imposes a 100% prohibited
transaction tax on the Company on profits derived from sales of properties held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business, which effectively
limits our ability to sell properties other than on a selected basis. These restrictions on our ability to sell our properties could have an adverse effect on our financial
condition, results of operations, cash flow, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and
distributions to our security holders.
We may invest in securities related to real estate, which could adversely affect our ability to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders. We may
purchase securities issued by entities that own real estate and may, in the future, also invest in mortgages. In general, investments in mortgages are subject to
several risks, including:
•
•
•
borrowers may fail to make debt service payments or pay the principal when due;
the value of the mortgaged property may be less than the principal amount of the mortgage note securing the property; and
interest rates payable on the mortgages may be lower than our cost for the funds used to acquire these mortgages.
Owning these securities may not entitle us to control the ownership, operation and management of the underlying real estate. In addition, we may have no
control over the distributions with respect to these securities, which could adversely affect our ability to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.
24
We face risks associated with short-term liquid investments. From time to time, we have significant cash balances that we invest in a variety of short-term
investments that are intended to preserve principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current income. These investments may include
(either directly or indirectly):
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
direct obligations issued by the U.S. Treasury;
obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies;
taxable municipal securities;
obligations (including certificates of deposits) of banks and thrifts;
commercial paper and other instruments consisting of short-term U.S. dollar denominated obligations issued by corporations and banks;
repurchase agreements collateralized by corporate and asset-backed obligations;
both registered and unregistered money market funds; and
other highly rated short-term securities.
Investments in these securities and funds are not insured against loss of principal. Under certain circumstances we may be required to redeem all or part of our
investment, and our right to redeem some or all of our investment may be delayed or suspended. In addition, there is no guarantee that our investments in these
securities or funds will be redeemable at par value. A decline in the value of our investment or a delay or suspension of our right to redeem may have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
Future terrorist activity or engagement in war by the United States may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results. Terrorist
attacks in the United States and other acts of terrorism or war, may result in declining economic activity, which could harm the demand for and the value of our
properties. In addition, the public perception that certain locations are at greater risk for attack, such as major airports, ports and rail facilities, may decrease the
demand for and the value of our properties near these sites. A decrease in demand could make it difficult for us to renew or re-lease our properties at these sites at
lease rates equal to or above historical rates. Terrorist activities also could directly impact the value of our properties through damage, destruction, or loss, and the
availability of insurance for these acts may be less, and cost more, which could adversely affect our financial condition. To the extent that our tenants are impacted
by future attacks, their businesses similarly could be adversely affected, including their ability to continue to honor their existing leases.
Terrorist acts and engagement in war by the United States also may adversely affect the markets in which our securities trade and may cause further erosion of
business and consumer confidence and spending, and may result in increased volatility in national and international financial markets and economies. Any one of
these events may cause a decline in the demand for our office leased space, delay the time in which our new or renovated properties reach stabilized occupancy,
increase our operating expenses, such as those attributable to increased physical security for our properties, and limit our access to capital or increase our cost of
raising capital.
The enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”) will subject us to substantial additional federal
regulation. There are significant corporate governance and executive compensation-related requirements that have been, and will in the future be, imposed on
publicly-traded companies under the Dodd-Frank Act. Several of these provisions require the SEC to adopt additional rules and regulations in these areas. For
example, the Dodd-Frank Act requires publicly-traded companies to give stockholders a non-binding vote on executive compensation and so-called “golden
parachute” payments. Our efforts to comply with these requirements have resulted in, and are likely to continue to result in, an increase in expenses and a diversion
of management’s time from other business activities. In addition, if stockholders do not vote to approve our executive compensation practices and/or our equity plan
amendments, these actions may interfere with our ability to attract and retain key personnel who are essential to our future success. Provisions of the Dodd-Frank
Act that directly affect other participants in the real estate and capital markets, such as banks, investment funds and interest rate hedge providers,
25
could also have indirect, but material, impacts on our business that cannot now be predicted. In addition, in February 2017, the U.S. President ordered the Secretary
of the U.S. Treasury to review certain existing rules and regulations, such as those promulgated under the Dodd-Frank Act; however, the implications of that review
are not yet known and none of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Dodd-Frank Act have been modified or rescinded as of the date of this report. Given
the uncertainty associated with both the results of the existing Dodd-Frank Act requirements and the manner in which additional provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act
will be implemented by various regulatory agencies and through regulations, the full extent of the impact of such requirements on our operations is unclear.
Accordingly, the changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act may impact the profitability of business activities, require changes to certain business practices, or
otherwise adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities and our ability to satisfy our debt
service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.
Our property taxes could increase due to reassessment or property tax rate changes. We are required to pay state and local taxes on our properties. In
addition, the real property taxes on our properties may increase as our properties are reassessed by taxing authorities or as property tax rates change. For example,
under a current California law commonly referred to as “Proposition 13,” property tax reassessment generally occurs as a result of a “change in ownership” of a
property, as specifically defined for purposes of those rules. Because the property taxing authorities may not determine whether there has been a “change in
ownership” or the actual reassessed value of a property for a period of time after a transaction has occurred, we may not know the impact of a potential reassessment
for a considerable amount of time following a particular transaction or construction of a new property. Therefore, the amount of property taxes we are required to pay
could increase substantially from the property taxes we currently pay or have paid in the past, including on a retroactive basis. In addition, from time to time voters
and lawmakers have announced initiatives to repeal or amend Proposition 13 to eliminate its application to commercial property and/or introduce split tax roll
legislation. Such initiatives, if successful, would increase the assessed value and/or tax rates applicable to commercial property in California, including our
properties. An increase in the assessed value of our properties or our property tax rates could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, cash
flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security
holders.
Unfavorable resolution of litigation matters and disputes could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. From time to time, we are involved
in legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims. We may also be named as defendants in lawsuits allegedly arising out of our actions or the actions of our operators,
vendors, contractors, tenants or other contractual parties in which such parties have agreed to indemnify, defend and hold us harmless from and against various
claims, litigation and liabilities arising in connection with their respective businesses and/or added as an additional insured under certain insurance policies. An
unfavorable resolution of any legal proceeding, lawsuit or other claim could have a negative effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and
the quoted trading price of our securities. Regardless of its outcome, legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims may result in substantial costs and expenses and
significantly divert the attention of our management. There can be no assurance that we will be able to prevail or achieve a favorable settlement or outcome. There
can also be no assurance that our insurance or the insurance and/or any contractual indemnities of our operators, vendors, contractors, tenants or other contractual
parties will be enough to cover all of our defense costs or any resulting liabilities. In addition, litigation, government proceedings or environmental matters could
lead to increased costs or interruption of our normal business operations.
Our business could be adversely impacted if there are deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting.
The design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting may not prevent all errors, misstatements or
misrepresentations. While management will continue to review the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial
reporting, there can be no guarantee that our internal control over financial reporting will be effective in accomplishing all control objectives all of the time.
Deficiencies, including any material weakness, in our internal control over financial reporting that may occur in the future could result in misstatements of our results
of operations, restatements of our financial statements, or otherwise adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading
price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.

We face risks associated with security breaches through cyber attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our
information technology (IT) networks and related systems. We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber attacks or cyber intrusions over
the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to systems inside our organization, and other
significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber attack or cyber intrusion,
including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks
and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform
day-to-day operations (including managing our building systems), and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants. There can be no
assurance that our efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems will be effective or that attempted security
breaches or disruptions would not be successful or damaging. Like other businesses, we have been and expect to continue to be subject to unauthorized access,
mishandling or misuse, computer viruses or malware, cyber attacks and other events of varying degrees. Historically, these events have not adversely affected our
operations or business and were not individually or in the aggregate material.
However, in the future, events such as these or other significant disruptions involving our IT networks and related systems could, among other things:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
result in unauthorized access to, destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information
of ours or others, including personally identifiable and account information that could be used to compete against us or for disruptive, destructive or
otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes;
result in unauthorized access to or changes to our financial accounting and reporting systems and related data;
result in the theft of funds;
result in our inability to maintain building systems relied on by our tenants;
require significant management attention and resources to remedy any damage that results;
subject us to regulatory penalties or claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or terminations of leases or other agreements; or
damage our reputation among our tenants and investors.
These events could have an adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our
ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.
An increase in interest rates could increase our interest costs on variable rate debt and new debt and could adversely affect our ability to refinance existing
debt, conduct development, redevelopment and acquisition activity and recycle capital. As of December 31, 2019, we had an unsecured revolving credit facility
and an unsecured term loan facility bearing interest at variable rates on any amounts drawn and outstanding. These facilities comprised approximately 11.0% of our
total outstanding debt at December 31, 2019 and were subject to variable interest rates and therefore subject to interest rate risk. In addition, we may incur additional
variable rate debt in the future. If interest rates increase, so could our interest costs for any variable rate debt and for new debt. This increased cost could make the
financing of any development, redevelopment and acquisition activity costlier. Rising interest rates could also limit our ability to refinance existing debt when it
matures or cause us to pay higher interest rates upon refinancing and increase interest expense on refinanced indebtedness. In addition, an increase in interest rates
could decrease the amount third parties are willing to pay for our assets, thereby limiting our ability to recycle capital and our portfolio promptly in response to
changes in economic or other conditions.
We manage a portion of our exposure to interest rate risk by accessing debt with staggered maturities, and we may in the future mitigate this risk through the
use of derivative instruments, including interest rate swap agreements or
27
other interest rate hedging agreements, including swaps, caps and floors. While these agreements are intended to lessen the impact of rising interest rates on us,
they also expose us to the risks that counter parties may fail to honor their obligations, that we could incur significant costs associated with the settlement of these
agreements, that the amount of income we earn from hedging transactions may be limited by federal tax provisions governing REITs, that these agreements may
cause us to pay higher interest rates on our debt obligations than would otherwise be the case and that underlying transactions could fail to qualify as highly-
effective cash flow hedges under the accounting guidance. As a result, failure to hedge effectively against interest rate risk, if we choose to engage in such
activities, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our
debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.
The trading price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly. The trading price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly. Between January 1, 2019
and February 7, 2020, the closing sale price of Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE, ranged from a low of $61.44 to a high of
$85.25 per share. The trading price of our common stock may fluctuate in response to many factors, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
actual or anticipated variations in our operating results, funds from operations, cash flows, liquidity or distributions;
our ability to successfully execute on our development plans;
our ability to successfully complete acquisitions and operate acquired properties;
earthquakes;
changes in our earnings estimates or those of analysts;
publication of research reports about us, the real estate industry generally or the office and residential sectors in which we operate;
the failure to maintain our current credit ratings or comply with our debt covenants;
increases in market interest rates;
changes in market valuations of similar companies;
adverse market reaction to any debt or equity securities we may issue or additional debt we incur in the future;
additions or departures of key management personnel;
actions by institutional investors;
speculation in the press or investment community;
high levels of volatility in the credit or equity markets;
general market and economic conditions; and
the realization of any of the other risk factors included in this report.
Many of the factors listed above are beyond our control. These factors may cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, regardless of our financial
condition, results of operations, business or prospects. We cannot assure you that the trading price of our common stock or the amount of dividends we pay on our
common stock will not decline in the future, and it may be difficult for investors to resell shares of our common stock at prices they find attractive, or at all.
28
Changes in accounting pronouncements could adversely affect our operating results, in addition to the reported financial performance of our tenants.
Uncertainties posed by various initiatives of accounting standard-setting by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and the SEC, which establish and
govern accounting standards for U.S. companies, may change the financial accounting and reporting standards or their interpretation and application of these
standards that govern the preparation of our financial statements, including the adoption of the lease accounting standard.
Proposed and/or future changes in accounting standards could have a material impact on our reported financial condition and results of operations. In some
cases, we could be required to apply a new or revised standard retroactively, resulting in potentially material restatements of prior period financial statements.
Similarly, these changes could have a material impact on our tenants’ reported financial condition or results of operations or could impact our tenants’ business
decisions in leasing real estate.
We face risks associated with our tenants and contractual counterparties being designated “Prohibited Persons” by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
Pursuant to Executive Order 13224 and other laws, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”) maintains a list of
persons designated as terrorists or who are otherwise blocked or banned (“Prohibited Persons”). OFAC regulations and other laws prohibit conducting business or
engaging in transactions with Prohibited Persons (the “OFAC Requirements”). Certain of our loan and other agreements require us to comply with OFAC
Requirements. Our leases and other agreements, in general, require the other party to comply with OFAC Requirements. If a tenant or other party with whom we
contract is placed on the OFAC list, we may be required by the OFAC Requirements to terminate the lease or other agreement. Any such termination could result in a
loss of revenue or a damage claim by the other party that the termination was wrongful.
The actual density of our undeveloped land holdings and/or any particular land parcel may not be consistent with our potential density estimates. As of
December 31, 2019, we estimate that our five future development sites, representing approximately 61 gross acres of undeveloped land, provide more than 6.0 million
square feet of potential density. We caution you not to place undue reliance on the potential density estimates for our undeveloped land holdings and/or any
particular land parcel because they are based solely on our estimates, using data currently available to us, and our business plans as of December 31, 2019. The
actual density of our undeveloped land holdings and/or any particular land parcel may differ substantially from our estimates based on numerous factors, including
our inability to obtain necessary zoning, land use and other required entitlements, as well as building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and
authorizations, and changes in the entitlement, permitting and authorization processes that restrict or delay our ability to develop, redevelop or use undeveloped
land holdings at anticipated density levels. Moreover, we may strategically choose not to develop, redevelop or use our undeveloped land holdings to their
maximum potential density or may be unable to do so as a result of factors beyond our control, including our ability to obtain capital on terms that are acceptable to
us, or at all, to fund our development and redevelopment activities. We can provide no assurance that the actual density of our undeveloped land holdings and/or
any particular land parcel will be consistent with our potential density estimates. For additional information on our development program, see “Item 7. Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations.”
Loss of our key personnel could harm our operations and financial performance and adversely affect the quoted trading price of our securities. The
leadership and performance of our executive and senior officers play a key role in the success of the Company. They are integral to the Company’s success for many
reasons, including that each has a strong national or regional reputation in our industry and investment community. In addition, they have significant relationships
with investors, lenders, tenants and industry personnel, which benefit the Company.
Risks Related to Our Organizational Structure
Our growth depends on external sources of capital that are outside of our control and the inability to obtain capital on terms that are acceptable to us, or at
all, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. The Company is required under the Code to distribute at least 90% of its taxable
income (subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain), and the Operating Partnership is required to make distributions to the Company to allow
the Company to satisfy these REIT distribution requirements. Because of these distribution requirements, the Operating Partnership is required to make distributions
to the Company, and we may not be able to fund future capital needs, including any necessary acquisition financing, from operating cash flow. Consequently,
management relies on
29
third-party sources of capital to fund our capital needs. We may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all. Any additional debt we incur will
increase our leverage. Access to third-party sources of capital depends, in part, on general market conditions and the availability of credit, the market’s perception of
our growth potential, our current and expected future earnings, our cash flows and cash distributions and the quoted trading price of our securities. If we cannot
obtain capital from third-party sources, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy
our debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders may be adversely affected.
Our common limited partners have limited approval rights, which may prevent us from completing a change of control transaction that may be in the best
interests of all our security holders. The Company may not withdraw as the Operating Partnership’s general partner or transfer its general partnership interest in the
Operating Partnership without the approval of the holders of at least 60% of the units representing common limited partnership interests, including the common units
held by the Company in its capacity as the Operating Partnership’s general partner. In addition, the Company may not engage in a merger, consolidation or other
combination or the sale of substantially all of its assets or such similar transaction, without the approval of the holders of 60% of the common units, including the
common units held by the Company in its capacity as the Operating Partnership’s general partner. The right of our common limited partners to vote on these
transactions could limit our ability to complete a change of control transaction that might otherwise be in the best interest of all our security holders.
In certain circumstances, our limited partners must approve our dissolution and the disposition of properties contributed by the limited partners. For as long
as limited partners own at least 5% of all of the Operating Partnership’s partnership interests, we must obtain the approval of limited partners holding a majority of
the units representing common limited partnership interests before we may dissolve. As of December 31, 2019, limited partners owned approximately 1.9% of the
Operating Partnership’s partnership interests, of which 0.7% was owned by John Kilroy. In addition, we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize
the tax consequences to certain common limited partners resulting from the repayment, refinancing, replacement, or restructuring of debt, or any sale, exchange, or
other disposition of any of our other assets. The exercise of one or more of these approval rights by the limited partners could delay or prevent us from completing a
transaction that may be in the best interest of all our security holders.
The Chairman of our board of directors and our President and Chief Executive Officer has substantial influence over our affairs. John Kilroy is the Chairman
of our board of directors and our President and Chief Executive Officer. John Kilroy beneficially owned, as of December 31, 2019, approximately 1.5% of the total
outstanding shares of our common stock. The percentage of outstanding shares of common stock beneficially owned includes 274,256 shares of common stock,
499,245 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that were vested and held by John Kilroy at December 31, 2019, and assumes the exchange into shares of our common stock
of the 783,192 common units of the Operating Partnership held by John Kilroy (which may be exchanged for an equal number of shares of our common stock).
Pursuant to the Company’s charter, no stockholder may own, actually or constructively, more than 7.0% (by value or by number of shares, whichever is more
restrictive) of our outstanding common stock without obtaining a waiver from the board of directors. The board of directors has waived the ownership limits with
respect to John Kilroy, members of his family and some of their affiliated entities. These named individuals and entities may own either actually or constructively, in
the aggregate, up to 19.6% of our common stock, excluding Operating Partnership units that are exchangeable into shares of our common stock. Consequently, John
Kilroy has substantial influence over the Company, and because the Company is the manager of the Operating Partnership, over the Operating Partnership, and
could exercise his influence in a manner that is not in the best interest of our stockholders, noteholders or unitholders. Also, John Kilroy may, in the future, have a
substantial influence over the outcome of any matters submitted to our stockholders or unitholders for approval.
There are restrictions on the ownership of the Company’s capital stock that limit the opportunities for a change of control at a premium to existing security
holders. Provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law, the Company’s charter and bylaws and the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement may delay,
deter, or prevent a change of control of the Company, or the removal of existing management. Any of these actions might prevent our security holders from receiving
a premium for their shares of common stock or common units over the then-prevailing market price of the shares of our common stock.
30
In order for the Company to qualify as a REIT under the Code, its stock must be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable
year of 12 months (other than the first year for which an election to be a REIT has been made) or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year. Also, not more
than 50% of the value of the outstanding shares of the Company’s stock may be owned, actually or constructively, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the
Code to include certain entities) during the last half of a taxable year (other than the first year for which an election to be a REIT has been made). The Company’s
charter contains restrictions on the ownership and transfer of its capital stock that are intended to assist the Company in complying with these requirements and
continuing to qualify as a REIT. No single stockholder may own, either actually or constructively, absent a waiver from the board of directors, more than 7.0% (by
value or by number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of the Company’s outstanding common stock.
The constructive ownership rules under the Code are complex and may cause stock owned actually or constructively by a group of related individuals and/or
entities to be owned constructively by one individual or entity. As a result, the acquisition of less than the applicable ownership limit of a particular class of the
Company’s capital stock could, nevertheless, cause that individual or entity, or another individual or entity, to constructively own stock in excess of, and thereby
subject such stock to, the applicable ownership limit.
The board of directors may waive the ownership limits if it is satisfied that the excess ownership would not jeopardize the Company’s REIT status and if it
believes that the waiver would be in our best interest. The board of directors has waived the ownership limits with respect to John Kilroy, members of his family and
some of their affiliated entities. These named individuals and entities may own either actually or constructively, in the aggregate, up to 19.6% of our outstanding
common stock, excluding common units that are exchangeable into shares of common stock.
If anyone acquires shares in excess of any ownership limits without a waiver, the transfer to the transferee will be void with respect to the excess shares, the
excess shares will be automatically transferred to a trust for the benefit of a qualified charitable organization, and the purported transferee or owner will have no
rights with respect to those excess shares.
The Company’s charter contains provisions that may delay, deter or prevent a change of control transaction. The following provisions of the Company’s
charter may delay or prevent a change of control over us, even if a change of control might be beneficial to our security holders, deter tender offers that may be
beneficial to our security holders, or limit security holders’ opportunity to receive a potential premium for their shares and/or units if an investor attempted to gain
shares beyond the Company’s ownership limits or otherwise to effect a change of control:
•
•
the Company’s charter authorizes the board of directors to issue up to 30,000,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock, including convertible preferred
stock, without stockholder approval. The board of directors may establish the preferences, rights and other terms, including the right to vote and the right
to convert into common stock any shares issued. The issuance of preferred stock could delay or prevent a tender offer or a change of control even if a
tender offer or a change of control was in our security holders’ interest; and
the Company’s charter states that any director, or the entire board of directors, may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause and then only by
the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two thirds of the votes of the Company’s capital stock entitled to be cast in the election of directors.
The board of directors may change investment and financing policies without stockholder or unitholder approval. Our board of directors determines our
major policies, including policies and guidelines relating to our acquisition, development and redevelopment activities, leverage, financing, growth, operations,
indebtedness, capitalization and distributions to our security holders. Our board of directors may amend or revise these and other policies and guidelines from time
to time without stockholder or unitholder approval. Accordingly, our stockholders and unitholders will have limited control over changes in our policies and those
changes could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our
debt service obligations and to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders.
We are not limited in our ability to incur debt. Our financing policies and objectives are determined by the board of directors. Our goal is to limit our
dependence on leverage and maintain a conservative ratio of debt to total market capitalization. However, our organizational documents do not limit the amount or
percentage of indebtedness, funded
31
or otherwise, that we may incur. As of December 31, 2019, we had approximately $3.6 billion aggregate principal amount of indebtedness outstanding, which
represented 28.3% of our total market capitalization. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —
Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company —Capitalization” for a calculation of our market capitalization. These ratios may be increased or decreased without
the consent of our unitholders or stockholders. Increases in the amount of debt outstanding would result in an increase in our debt service costs, which could
adversely affect cash flow and our ability to pay dividends and distributions to our security holders. Higher leverage also increases the risk of default on our
obligations and limits our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.
We may issue additional common units and shares of capital stock without unitholder or stockholder approval, as applicable, which may dilute unitholder
or stockholder investment. The Company may issue shares of our common stock, preferred stock or other equity or debt securities without stockholder approval,
including the issuance of shares to satisfy REIT dividend distribution requirements. Similarly, the Operating Partnership may offer its common or preferred units for
contributions of cash or property without approval by our stockholders or the Operating Partnership’s unitholders. Existing security holders have no preemptive
rights to acquire any of these securities, and any issuance of equity securities under these circumstances may dilute a unitholder's or stockholder's investment.
The market price of our common stock may be adversely affected by future offerings of debt and equity securities by us or the Operating Partnership. In the
future, we may increase our capital resources by offering our debt securities and preferred stock, the Operating Partnership’s debt securities and equity securities
and our or the Operating Partnership’s other borrowings. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, holders of such debt securities, our preferred stock and
Operating Partnership’s equity securities, and lenders with respect to other borrowings by us and the Operating Partnership, will be entitled to receive distributions
of our available assets prior to the holders of our common stock and it is possible that, after making distributions on these other securities and borrowings, no assets
would be available for distribution to holders of our common stock. In addition, the Operating Partnership’s debt and equity securities and borrowings are
structurally senior to our common stock, our debt securities and borrowings are senior in right of payment to our common stock, and any preferred stock we may
issue in the future may have a preference over our common stock, and all payments (including dividends, principal and interest) and liquidating distributions on
such securities and borrowings could limit our ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to the holders of our common stock. Because any decision to
issue securities and make borrowings in the future will depend on market conditions and other factors, some of which may be beyond our control, we cannot predict
or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our or the Operating Partnership’s future offerings or borrowings. Such future offerings or borrowings may reduce the
market price of our common stock.
Sales of a substantial number of shares of the Company’s securities, or the perception that this could occur, could result in decreasing the quoted trading
price per share of the Company’s common stock and of the Operating Partnership’s publicly-traded notes. Management cannot predict whether future issuances
of shares of the Company’s common stock, or the availability of shares for resale in the open market will result in decreasing the market price per share of the
Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 2019, 106,016,287 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued and outstanding.
As of December 31, 2019, the Company had reserved for future issuance the following shares of common stock: 2,023,287 shares issuable upon the exchange, at
the Company’s option, of the Operating Partnership’s common units; approximately 0.4 million shares remained available for grant under our 2006 Incentive Award
Plan (see Note 15 “Share-Based Compensation” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report); approximately 1.6 million shares issuable upon
settlement of time-based RSUs; a maximum of 1.6 million shares contingently issuable upon settlement of RSUs subject to the achievement of market and/or
performance conditions; and 9,000 shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options. The Company has a currently effective registration statement registering
9.2 million shares of our common stock for possible issuance under our 2006 Incentive Award Plan. The Company has a currently effective registration statement
registering 1,649,760 shares of our common stock for possible issuance to and resale by certain holders of the Operating Partnership’s common units. That
registration statement also registers 94,441 shares of common stock held by John Kilroy for possible resale. In addition, as of December 31, 2019, various forward
equity sale agreements remain to be settled for 3,147,110 shares of common stock sold by financial institutions acting as forward purchasers. Consequently, if and
when the shares are issued, they may be freely traded in the public markets.
32
Risks Related to Taxes and the Company’s Status as a REIT
Loss of the Company’s REIT status would have significant adverse consequences to us and the value of the Company’s common stock. The Company currently
operates in a manner that is intended to allow it to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes under the Code. If the Company were to lose its REIT status, the
Company would face adverse tax consequences that would substantially reduce the funds available for distribution to its stockholders for each of the years
involved because:
•
•
•
the Company would not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to its stockholders in computing the Company’s taxable income and would be subject to
federal income tax at regular corporate rates;
the Company could be subject to increased state and local taxes; and
unless entitled to relief under statutory provisions, the Company could not elect to be taxed as a REIT for four taxable years following the year during which
the Company was disqualified.
In addition, if the Company failed to qualify as a REIT, it would not be required to make distributions to its stockholders. As a result of all these factors, the
Company’s failure to qualify as a REIT also could impair our ability to expand our business and raise capital, and could adversely affect the value and quoted trading
price of the Company’s common stock.
Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex Code provisions for which there are only limited judicial and administrative
interpretations. The complexity of these provisions and of the applicable Treasury regulations that have been promulgated under the Code is greater in the case of a
REIT that, like the Company, holds its assets through a partnership. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control
may affect the Company’s ability to continue to qualify as a REIT. For example, to qualify as a REIT, at least 95% of the Company’s gross income in any year must be
derived from qualifying sources. Also, the Company must make distributions to its stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of the Company’s net taxable
income (subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gains). In addition, legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions
may adversely affect the Company’s security holders or the Company’s ability to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes or the desirability of an
investment in a REIT relative to other investments. Although management believes that we are organized and operate in a manner to permit the Company to continue
to qualify as a REIT, we cannot provide assurances that the Company has qualified or will continue to qualify as a REIT for tax purposes. We have not requested
and do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) regarding the Company’s qualification as a REIT.
To maintain the Company’s REIT status, we may be forced to borrow funds during unfavorable market conditions. To qualify as a REIT, the Company
generally must distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of the Company’s net taxable income each year (subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net
capital gains), and the Company will be subject to regular corporate income taxes to the extent that it distributes less than 100% of its net capital gains or distributes
at least 90%, but less than 100%, of its net taxable income each year. In addition, the Company will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any,
by which distributions it pays in any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of its ordinary income, 95% of its net capital gains, and 100% of its undistributed
income from prior years. To maintain the Company’s REIT status and avoid the payment of federal income and excise taxes, the Operating Partnership may need to
borrow funds and distribute or loan the proceeds to the Company so it can meet the REIT distribution requirements even if the then-prevailing market conditions are
not favorable for these borrowings. These borrowing needs could result from differences in timing between the actual receipt of income and inclusion of income for
federal income tax purposes, or the effect of nondeductible capital expenditures, the creation of reserves or required debt or amortization payments.
If a transaction intended to qualify as a Section 1031 Exchange is later determined to be taxable or if we are unable to identify and complete the acquisition
of a suitable replacement property to effect a Section 1031 Exchange, we may face adverse consequences, and if the laws applicable to such transactions are
amended or repealed, we may not be able to dispose of properties on a tax deferred basis. When possible, we dispose of properties in transactions that are
intended to qualify as Section 1031 Exchanges. It is possible that the qualification of a transaction as a Section 1031 Exchange could be successfully challenged and
determined to be currently taxable or that we may be unable to identify
33
and complete the acquisition of a suitable replacement property to effect a Section 1031 Exchange. In such case, our taxable income and earnings and profits would
increase. This could increase the dividend income to our stockholders by reducing any return of capital they received. In some circumstances, we may be required to
pay additional dividends or, in lieu of that, corporate income tax, possibly including interest and penalties. As a result, we may be required to borrow funds in order
to pay additional dividends or taxes and the payment of such taxes could cause us to have less cash available to distribute to our stockholders. In addition, if a
Section 1031 Exchange were later to be determined to be taxable, we may be required to amend our tax returns for the applicable year in question, including any
information reports we sent our stockholders. Moreover, under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Legislation”), for exchanges completed after December 31,
2017, unless the property was disposed of or received in the exchange on or before such date, Section 1031 of the Code permits exchanges of real property only. It is
possible that additional legislation could be enacted that could further modify or repeal the laws with respect to Section 1031 Exchanges, which could make it more
difficult or not possible for us to dispose of properties on a tax deferred basis.
Dividends payable by REITs, including us, generally do not qualify for the reduced tax rates available for some dividends. “Qualified dividends” payable to
U.S. stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates generally are subject to tax at preferential rates. Subject to limited exceptions, dividends payable by REITs
are not eligible for these reduced rates and are taxable at ordinary income tax rates. The more favorable rates applicable to regular corporate qualified dividends could
cause investors who are individuals, trusts and estates to perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the stocks of non-REIT
corporations that pay dividends, which could adversely affect the value of the shares of REITs, including the shares of our capital stock. However, non-corporate
stockholders, including individuals, generally may deduct up to 20% of dividends from a REIT, other than capital gain dividends and dividends treated as qualified
dividend income, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026.
The tax imposed on REITs engaging in “prohibited transactions” may limit our ability to engage in transactions which would be treated as sales for federal
income tax purposes. A REIT’s net income from prohibited transactions is subject to a 100% penalty tax. In general, prohibited transactions are sales or other
dispositions of property, other than foreclosure property, held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. Although we do not intend to hold
any properties that would be characterized as held for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our business, unless a sale or disposition qualifies under certain
statutory safe harbors, such characterization is a factual determination and no guarantee can be given that the IRS would agree with our characterization of our
properties or that we will always be able to make use of the available safe harbors.
Complying with REIT requirements may cause us to forego otherwise attractive opportunities or liquidate otherwise attractive investments. To qualify as a
REIT for federal income tax purposes, we must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things, the sources of our income, the nature and diversification of
our assets, the amounts we distribute to our stockholders and the ownership of our capital stock. If we fail to comply with one or more of the asset tests at the end of
any calendar quarter, we must correct the failure within 30 days after the end of the calendar quarter or qualify for certain statutory relief provisions to avoid losing
our REIT qualification and suffering adverse tax consequences. In order to meet these tests, we may be required to forego investments we might otherwise make or
to liquidate otherwise attractive investments. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our performance and reduce amounts available for
distribution to our stockholders.
Legislative or regulatory action could adversely affect our stockholders or us. In recent years, numerous legislative, judicial and administrative changes have
been made to the federal income tax laws applicable to investments in REITs and similar entities. Additional changes to tax laws are likely to continue to occur in the
future, and any such changes may adversely impact our ability to qualify as a REIT, our tax treatment as a REIT, our ability to comply with contractual obligations or
the tax treatment of our stockholders and limited partners. Also, the law relating to the tax treatment of other entities, or an investment in other entities, could change,
making an investment in such other entities more attractive relative to an investment in a REIT.
The 2017 Tax Legislation has significantly changed the U.S. federal income taxation of U.S. businesses and their owners, including REITs and their
stockholders. Changes made by the 2017 Tax Legislation that could affect us and our stockholders include:
34
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
temporarily reducing individual U.S. federal income tax rates on ordinary income; the highest individual U.S. federal income tax rate has been reduced from
39.6% to 37% for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026;
permanently eliminating the progressive corporate tax rate structure, which previously imposed a maximum corporate tax rate of 35%, and replacing it with a
flat corporate tax rate of 21%;
permitting a deduction for certain pass-through business income, including dividends received by our stockholders from us that are not designated by us
as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend income, which will allow individuals, trusts, and estates to deduct up to 20% of such amounts for taxable
years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026;
reducing the highest rate of withholding with respect to our distributions to non-U.S. stockholders that are treated as attributable to gains from the sale or
exchange of U.S. real property interests from 35% to 21%;
limiting our deduction for net operating losses arising in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 to 80% of REIT taxable income determined without
regard to the dividends paid deduction;
generally limiting the deduction for net business interest expense in excess of 30% of a business’ “adjusted taxable income,” except for taxpayers (including
most equity REITs) that engage in certain real estate businesses and elect out of this rule (provided that such electing taxpayers must use an alternative
depreciation system with longer depreciation periods);
eliminating the corporate alternative minimum tax, for taxable years after December 31, 2017;
requiring us to take into account certain income no later than when we take it into account on applicable financial statements, even if the financial
statements take such income into account before it accrues under otherwise applicable Code rules; and
repealing the performance-based compensation exception to the $1 million deduction limit on executive compensation and expanding the scope of
employees to whom the limit applies.
The legislation is unclear in many respects and could be subject to potential amendments and technical corrections, as well as interpretations and implementing
regulations by the U.S. Treasury Department and IRS, any of which could lessen or increase the impact of the legislation. In addition, it is unclear how these U.S.
federal income tax changes will affect state and local taxation, which often uses federal taxable income as a starting point for computing state and local tax liabilities.
While some of the changes made by the tax legislation may adversely affect us in one or more reporting periods and prospectively, other changes may be beneficial
on a going forward basis.

Our stabilized portfolio includes all of our properties with the exception of development and redevelopment properties currently committed for construction,
under construction or in the tenant improvement phase, undeveloped land, recently completed residential properties not yet stabilized and real estate assets held for
sale. We define redevelopment properties as those properties for which we expect to spend significant development and construction costs on the existing or
acquired buildings pursuant to a formal plan, the intended result of which is a higher economic return on the property. We define properties in the tenant
improvement phase as office and retail properties that we are developing or redeveloping where the project has reached cold shell condition and is ready for tenant
improvements, which may require additional major base building construction before being placed in service. Projects in the tenant improvement phase are added to
our stabilized portfolio once the project reaches the earlier of 95% occupancy or one year from the date of the cessation of major base building construction
activities. Costs capitalized to construction in progress for development and redevelopment properties are transferred to land and improvements, buildings and
improvements, and deferred leasing costs on our consolidated balance sheets at the historical cost of the property as the projects are placed in service.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we added one completed development project to our stabilized office portfolio consisting of 394,340 square feet in
San Francisco, California. As of December 31, 2019, the following properties were excluded from our stabilized portfolio. We did not have any redevelopment
properties or properties held for sale at December 31, 2019.

Our stabilized portfolio also excludes our future development pipeline, which as of December 31, 2019, was comprised of five future development sites,
representing approximately 61 gross acres of undeveloped land.
As of December 31, 2019, all of our properties and development projects were owned and all of our business was conducted in the state of California with the
exception of eight office properties, one development project under construction and one recently acquired future development project located in the state of
Washington. All of our properties and development projects are 100% owned, excluding four office properties owned by three consolidated property partnerships
and two development projects held in Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) which we consolidated for financial reporting purposes that were established to facilitate
potential Section 1031 transactions.
We own our interests in all of our real estate assets through the Operating Partnership and the Finance Partnership. All our properties are held in fee, except for
the fourteen office buildings that are held subject to five long-term ground
36
leases for the land (see Note 18 “Commitments and Contingencies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information
regarding our ground lease obligations).
In general, the office properties are leased to tenants on a full service gross, modified gross or triple net basis. Under a full service gross lease, we are obligated
to pay the tenant’s proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance and operating expenses up to the amount incurred during the tenant’s first year of occupancy
(“Base Year”) or a negotiated amount approximating the tenant’s pro-rata share of real estate taxes, insurance and operating expenses (“Expense Stop”). The tenant
pays its pro-rata share of increases in expenses above the Base Year or Expense Stop. A modified gross lease is similar to a full service gross lease, except tenants
are obligated to pay their proportionate share of certain operating expenses, usually electricity, directly to the service provider. In addition, some office properties,
primarily in the greater Seattle region and certain properties in certain submarkets in San Francisco, are leased to tenants on a triple net basis, pursuant to which the
tenants pay their proportionate share of real estate taxes, operating costs and utility costs.
We believe that all of our properties are well maintained and do not require significant capital improvements. As of December 31, 2019, we managed all of our
office properties through internal property managers.

such other factors as the board of directors deems relevant.
The table below reflects our purchases of equity securities during the three month period leading up to December 31, 2019.

PERFORMANCE GRAPH
The following line graph compares the change in cumulative stockholder return on shares of the Company’s common stock to the cumulative total return of the
NAREIT All Equity REIT Index, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Stock Index, and the SNL US REIT Office Index for the five-year period ended December 31, 2019. We
include an additional index, the SNL US REIT Office Index, to the performance graph since management believes it provides additional information to investors about
our performance relative to a more specific peer group. The SNL US REIT Office Index is a published and widely recognized index that comprises 22 office equity
REITs, including us. The graph assumes the investment of $100 in us and each of the indices on December 31, 2014 and, as required by the SEC, the reinvestment of
all distributions. The return shown on the graph is not necessarily indicative of future performance.

(1) On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted FASB ASU No. 2015-03 and 2015-15 which require deferred financing costs, except costs paid for the unsecured line of credit, to be
reclassified as a reduction to the debt liability balance instead of being reported as an asset as historically presented. As a result, total assets and total debt have been adjusted from prior
amounts reported to reflect this change for all periods presented.

(2) On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted FASB Topic 842 and recorded right of use ground lease assets and ground lease liabilities on its consolidate balance sheets. As of December
31, 2019, the consolidated balance sheets included $96.3 million of right of use ground lease assets and $98.4 million of ground lease liabilities.
(3) Includes the noncontrolling interests of the common units of the Operating Partnership and consolidated property partnerships (see Note 2 “ Basis of Presentation and Significant
Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information).
(4) We calculate FFO in accordance with the 2018 Restated White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss
calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, gains and losses from sales of depreciable real estate and impairment write-downs associated
with depreciable real estate, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets) and
after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Our calculation of FFO includes the amortization of deferred revenue related to tenant-funded tenant improvements
and excludes the depreciation of the related tenant improvement assets. We also add back net income attributable to noncontrolling common units of the Operating Partnership because
we report FFO attributable to common stockholders and common unitholders.
We believe that FFO is a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. The exclusion from FFO of gains and losses from the sale of operating real estate assets allows
investors and analysts to readily identify the operating results of the assets that form the core of our activity and assists in comparing those operating results between periods. Also,
because FFO is generally recognized as the industry standard for reporting the operations of REITs, it facilitates comparisons of operating performance to other REITs. However, other
REITs may use different methodologies to calculate FFO, and accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to all other REITs.
Implicit in historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP is the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real
estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies
using historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, we believe that FFO along with the required GAAP
presentations provides a more complete measurement of our performance relative to our competitors and a more appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating,
financing and investing activities than the required GAAP presentations alone would provide.
However, FFO should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our operating performance because it does not reflect either depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital
expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, which are significant economic costs and could materially impact our results from
operations.
Adjustments to arrive at FFO were as follows: net income attributable to noncontrolling common units of the Operating Partnership, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests
in consolidated property partnerships, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, gains on sales of depreciable real estate and FFO attributable to noncontrolling interests in
consolidated property partnerships. For additional information, see “ Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Non-GAAP
Supplemental Financial Measure: Funds From Operations” including a reconciliation of the Company’s GAAP net income available for common stockholders to FFO for the periods
presented.
(5) FFO includes amortization of deferred revenue related to tenant-funded tenant improvements of $19.2 million, $18.4 million, $16.8 million, $13.2 million and $13.3 million for the
years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

(6) On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted FASB ASU No. 2016-18 which requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash
equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As a result, cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities have been adjusted from
prior amounts reported to reflect this change for all periods presented.
(7) For the year ended December 31, 2016, represents occupancy at December 31, 2016.

ITEM 7.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion relates to our consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
appearing elsewhere in this report. The results of operations discussion is combined for the Company and the Operating Partnership because there are no material
differences in the results of operations between the two reporting entities.
Forward-Looking Statements
Statements contained in this “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” that are not historical facts
may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements or information concerning our plans, objectives, capital
resources, portfolio performance, results of operations, projected future occupancy and rental rates, lease expirations, debt maturities, potential investments,
strategies such as capital recycling, development and redevelopment activity, projected construction costs, projected construction commencement and completion
dates, projected square footage of space that could be constructed on undeveloped land that we own, projected rentable square footage of or number of units in
properties under construction or in the development pipeline, anticipated proceeds from capital recycling activity or other dispositions and anticipated dates of
those activities or dispositions, projected increases in the value of properties, dispositions, future executive incentive compensation, pending, potential or proposed
acquisitions, plans to grow our Net Operating Income and FFO, our ability to re-lease properties at or above current market rates, anticipated market conditions and
demographics and other forward-looking financial data, as well as the discussion in “—Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations,” “—Liquidity and
Capital Resource of the Company,” and “—Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership.” Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use
of words such as “believes,” “expects,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “pro forma,” “estimates” or “anticipates”
and the negative of these words and phrases and similar expressions that do not relate to historical matters. Forward-looking statements are based on our current
expectations, beliefs and assumptions, and are not guarantees of future performance. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks,
changes in circumstances, trends and factors that are difficult to predict, many of which are outside of our control. Accordingly, actual performance, results and
events may vary materially from those indicated or implied in the forward-looking statements, and you should not rely on the forward-looking statements as
predictions of future performance, results or events. Numerous factors could cause actual future performance, results and events to differ materially from those
indicated in the forward-looking statements, including, among others:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
global market and general economic conditions and their effect on our liquidity and financial conditions and those of our tenants;
adverse economic or real estate conditions generally, and specifically, in the States of California and Washington;
risks associated with our investment in real estate assets, which are illiquid, and with trends in the real estate industry;
defaults on or non-renewal of leases by tenants;
any significant downturn in tenants’ businesses;
our ability to re-lease property at or above current market rates;
costs to comply with government regulations, including environmental remediations;
the availability of cash for distribution and debt service and exposure to risk of default under debt obligations;
increases in interest rates and our ability to manage interest rate exposure;
54
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
the availability of financing on attractive terms or at all, which may adversely impact our future interest expense and our ability to pursue development,
redevelopment and acquisition opportunities and refinance existing debt;
a decline in real estate asset valuations, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or obtain or maintain debt financing, and which
may result in write-offs or impairment charges;
significant competition, which may decrease the occupancy and rental rates of properties;
potential losses that may not be covered by insurance;
the ability to successfully complete acquisitions and dispositions on announced terms;
the ability to successfully operate acquired, developed and redeveloped properties;
the ability to successfully complete development and redevelopment projects on schedule and within budgeted amounts;
delays or refusals in obtaining all necessary zoning, land use and other required entitlements, governmental permits and authorizations for our development
and redevelopment properties;
increases in anticipated capital expenditures, tenant improvement and/or leasing costs;
defaults on leases for land on which some of our properties are located;
adverse changes to, or enactment or implementations of, tax laws or other applicable laws, regulations or legislation, as well as business and consumer
reactions to such changes;
risks associated with joint venture investments, including our lack of sole decision-making authority, our reliance on co-venturers’ financial condition and
disputes between us and our co-venturers;
environmental uncertainties and risks related to natural disasters; and
our ability to maintain our status as a REIT.
The factors included in this report are not exhaustive and additional factors could adversely affect our business and financial performance. For a discussion of
additional factors that could materially adversely affect the Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s business and financial performance, see the discussion
below as well as “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” and in our other filings with the SEC. All forward-looking statements are based on information that was available and speak
only as of the dates on which they were made. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statement that becomes untrue because of subsequent
events, new information or otherwise, except to the extent we are required to do so in connection with our ongoing requirements under federal securities laws.
Company Overview
We are a self-administered REIT active in premier office and mixed-use submarkets along the West Coast. We own, develop, acquire and manage real estate
assets, consisting primarily of Class A properties in the coastal regions of Greater Los Angeles, San Diego County, the San Francisco Bay Area and Greater Seattle,
which we believe have strategic advantages and strong barriers to entry. We own our interests in all of our real properties through the Operating Partnership and the
Finance Partnership and generally conduct substantially all of our operations through the Operating Partnership. We owned an approximate 98.1% and 98.0%
general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. All of our properties are held in fee except for the
fourteen office buildings that are held subject to long-term ground leases for the land (see Note 18 “Commitments and Contingencies”
55
to our consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information regarding our ground lease obligations).
2019 Operating and Development Highlights
2019 was a terrific year across the Company. We achieved another Company record in annual leasing and continued to create value in our operating and
development platforms that we believe will drive future earnings and dividend growth.
Leasing. During 2019, we executed new and renewal leases totaling 1.8 million square feet within our stabilized portfolio with an increase in GAAP rents of 52.3%
and an increase in cash rents of 29.6%. Our stabilized office portfolio was 94.6% occupied and 97.0% leased as of December 31, 2019. We also signed approximately
1.7 million square feet of leases in our development portfolio.
Development. We continued to execute on our development program during 2019. We added one completed development project to our stabilized portfolio,
completed construction on 237 residential units, commenced revenue recognition on the first two phases of a development project in the tenant improvement phase,
had one development project progress from the under construction phase to the tenant improvement phase, commenced construction on three projects and acquired
two development sites in two transactions for approximately $173.0 million. See “—Factors that May Influence Future Operations” for additional information
regarding our development program.
Capital Recycling Program. We have continued to utilize our capital recycling program to provide additional capital to finance development expenditures, fund
potential acquisitions, repay long-term debt and for other general corporate purposes. Our general strategy is to target the disposition of non-core properties or
those that have limited upside for us and redeploy the capital into acquisitions and/or development projects where we can create additional value to generate higher
returns (see “—Factors that May Influence Future Operations” for additional information). In connection with this strategy, during 2019, we generated gross sales
proceeds totaling approximately $133.8 million through the sale of two office buildings.
Operating Property Acquisitions. We remain a disciplined and opportunistic buyer of office properties and development opportunities and continue to focus
on value-add opportunities in West Coast markets populated by knowledge and creative based tenants in a variety of industries, including technology, media,
health care, life sciences, entertainment and professional services companies. During 2019, we acquired a 19-building creative office campus in Culver City, California
in one transaction totaling 151,908 square feet of space for a total cash purchase price of approximately $186.0 million.
2019 Financing Highlights
In 2019, we raised approximately $500.0 million in new debt and settled the 2018 forward equity sale agreements by issuing 5,000,000 shares of common
stock for net proceeds of $354.3 million. In addition, we executed forward equity sale agreements to sell 3,147,110 shares of common stock under our at-the-market
stock offering program, which we expect to fully settle in the first quarter of 2020 through the first quarter of 2021 at this time. Refer to our 2019 Financing Highlights
in “—Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership” for a list of financing transactions completed in 2019 and Notes 9 and 13, “Secured and
Unsecured Debt of the Operating Partnership” and “Stockholders’ Equity of the Company,” respectively, to our consolidated financial statements included in this
report for additional information regarding our debt and capital market activity.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
for the reporting periods.
Certain accounting policies are considered to be critical accounting policies. Critical accounting policies are those policies that require our management team to
make significant estimates and/or assumptions about matters that are
56
uncertain at the time the estimates and/or assumptions are made or where we are required to make significant judgments and assumptions with respect to the
practical application of accounting principles in our business operations. Critical accounting policies are by definition those policies that are material to our financial
statements and for which the impact of changes in estimates, assumptions, and judgments could have a material impact to our financial statements.
The following critical accounting policies discussion reflects what we believe are the most significant estimates, assumptions, and judgments used in the
preparation of our consolidated financial statements. This discussion of our critical accounting policies is intended to supplement the description of our accounting
policies in the footnotes to our consolidated financial statements and to provide additional insight into the information used by management when evaluating
significant estimates, assumptions, and judgments. For further discussion of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 “Basis of Presentation and Significant
Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Revenue Recognition
Rental revenue for office and retail operating properties is our principal source of revenue. We recognize revenue from base rent, additional rent (which consists
of amounts due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs), parking and other lease-related revenue once all of the
following criteria are met: (i) the agreement has been fully executed and delivered, (ii) services have been rendered, (iii) the amount is fixed or determinable and
(iv) payment has been received or the collectability of the amount due is probable. Lease termination fees are amortized over the remaining lease term, if applicable. If
there is no remaining lease term, they are recognized when received and realized. Minimum annual rental revenues are recognized in rental revenues on a straight-line
basis over the non-cancellable term of the related lease.
Base Rent
The timing of when we commence rental revenue recognition for office and retail properties depends largely on our conclusion as to whether we are or the
tenant is the owner for accounting purposes of tenant improvements at the leased property. When we conclude that we are the owner of tenant improvements for
accounting purposes, we record the cost to construct the tenant improvements as an asset and commence rental revenue recognition when the tenant takes
possession of or controls the finished space, which is generally when tenant improvements being recorded as our assets are substantially complete. In certain
instances, when we conclude that the tenant is the owner of certain tenant improvements for accounting purposes, rental revenue recognition begins when the
tenant takes possession or controls the physical use of the leased space, which may occur in phases or for an entire building or project. The determination of who
owns the tenant improvements is made on a lease-by-lease basis and has a significant effect on the timing of commencement of revenue recognition.
The determination of whether we are or the tenant is the owner of tenant improvements for accounting purposes is subject to significant judgment. In making
that determination, we consider numerous factors and perform a detailed evaluation of each individual lease. No one factor is determinative in reaching a conclusion.
The factors we evaluate include but are not limited to the following:
• whether the lease agreement requires landlord approval of how the tenant improvement allowance is spent prior to installation of the tenant improvements;
• whether the lease agreement requires the tenant to provide evidence to the landlord supporting the cost and what the tenant improvement allowance was
spent on prior to payment by the landlord for such tenant improvements;
• whether the tenant improvements are unique to the tenant or reusable by other tenants;
• whether the tenant is permitted to alter or remove the tenant improvements without the consent of the landlord or without compensating the landlord for
any lost utility or diminution in fair value; and
57
• whether the ownership of the tenant improvements remains with the landlord or remains with the tenant at the end of the lease term.
When we conclude that we are the owner of tenant improvements for accounting purposes using the factors discussed above, we record the cost to construct
the tenant improvements, including costs paid for or reimbursed by the tenants, as a capital asset. During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, we
capitalized $12.0 million, $22.5 million and $22.0 million, respectively, of tenant-funded tenant improvements. The amount of tenant-funded tenant improvements
recorded in any given year varies based upon the mix of specific leases executed and/or commenced during the reporting period. For these tenant-funded tenant
improvements, we record the amount funded by or reimbursed by tenants as deferred revenue, which is amortized and recognized as rental income on a straight-line
basis over the term of the related lease beginning upon substantial completion of the leased premises. The determination of who owns the tenant improvements has
a significant impact on the amount of non-cash rental revenue that we record related to the amortization of deferred revenue for tenant-funded tenant improvements.
For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, we recognized $19.2 million, $18.4 million and $16.8 million, respectively, of non-cash rental revenue related to
the amortization of deferred revenue recorded in connection with tenant-funded tenant improvements.
When we conclude that the tenant is the owner of certain tenant improvements for accounting purposes, we record our contribution towards those tenant-
owned improvements as a lease incentive, which is included in deferred leasing costs and acquisition-related intangible assets, net on our consolidated balance
sheets and amortized as a reduction to rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease.
For residential properties, we commence revenue recognition upon lease commencement. Residential rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over
the term of the related lease, net of any concessions.
Additional Rent - Reimbursements from Tenants
Additional rent, consisting of amounts due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes, and other recoverable costs, are recognized in rental
income in the period the recoverable costs are incurred. Prior to the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update
(“ASU”) No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” (“Topic 842”) on January 1, 2019, such amounts were recognized in revenue as tenant reimbursements. Additional rent
where we pay the associated costs directly to third-party vendors and are reimbursed by our tenants are recognized and recorded on a gross basis, with the
corresponding expense recognized in property expenses or real estate taxes. Prior to the adoption of Topic 842, recoverable costs were generally recognized and
recorded on a gross basis when we were the primary obligor with respect to purchasing goods and services from third-party suppliers, had discretion in selecting the
supplier, and had credit risk.
Calculating additional rent requires an in-depth analysis of the complex terms of each underlying lease. Examples of judgments and estimates used when
determining the amounts recoverable include:
•
•
•
•
estimating the final expenses, net of accruals, that are recoverable;
estimating the fixed and variable components of operating expenses for each building;
conforming recoverable expense pools to those used in establishing the base year or base allowance for the applicable underlying lease; and
concluding whether an expense or capital expenditure is recoverable pursuant to the terms of the underlying lease.
During the year, we accrue estimated additional rent in the period in which the recoverable costs are incurred based on our best estimate of the amounts to be
recovered. Throughout the year, we perform analyses to properly match additional rent with reimbursable costs incurred to date. Additionally, during the fourth
quarter of each year, we perform preliminary reconciliations and accrue additional rent or refunds. Subsequent to year end, we perform final detailed reconciliations
and analyses on a lease-by-lease basis and bill or refund each tenant for any cumulative annual
58
adjustments in the first and second quarters of each year for the previous year’s activity. Our historical experience for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017
has been that our final reconciliation and billing process resulted in final amounts that approximated the total annual additional rent recognized.
Uncollectible Lease Receivables and Allowances for Tenant and Deferred Rent Receivables
We carry our current and deferred rent receivables net of allowances for amounts that may not be collected. Prior to the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1,
2019, the allowances were increased or decreased through provision for bad debts on our consolidated statements of operations. Upon the adoption of Topic 842 on
January 1, 2019, the allowances are increased or decreased through rental income, and our determination of the adequacy of the Company’s allowances for tenant
receivables includes a binary assessment of whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection. Such
assessment involves using a methodology that incorporates a specific identification analysis and an aging analysis and considers the current economic and
business environment. This determination requires significant judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made, including
the creditworthiness of specific tenants, specific industry trends and conditions, and general economic trends and conditions. Since these factors are beyond our
control, actual results can differ from our estimates, and such differences could be material. For leases that are deemed probable of collection, revenue continues to
be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as the lesser of (i) the amount
which would be recognized on a straight-line basis or (ii) cash that has been received from the tenant, with any tenant and deferred rent receivable balances charged
as a direct write-off against rental income in the period of the change in the collectability determination.
For tenant and deferred rent receivables associated with leases whose rents are deemed probable of collection, we may record an allowance under other
authoritative GAAP using a methodology that incorporates a specific identification analysis and an aging analysis and considers the current economic and business
environment. This determination requires significant judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made, including the
creditworthiness of specific tenants, specific industry trends and conditions, and general economic trends and conditions. Since these factors are beyond our
control, actual results can differ from our estimates, and such differences could be material. Tenant and deferred rent receivables deemed probable of collection are
carried net of allowances for uncollectible accounts, with increases or decreases in the allowances recorded through rental income on our consolidated statements of
operations. Prior to the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, the allowances were increased or decreased through provision for bad debts on our consolidated
statements of operations.
Current tenant receivables consist primarily of amounts due for contractual lease payments and reimbursements of common area maintenance expenses,
property taxes, and other costs recoverable from tenants. With respect to the allowance for uncollectible tenant receivables, the specific identification methodology
analysis relies on factors such as the age and nature of the receivables, the payment history and financial condition of the tenant, our assessment of the tenant’s
ability to meet its lease obligations, and the status of negotiations of any disputes with the tenant.
Deferred rent receivables represent the amount by which the cumulative straight-line rental revenue recorded to date exceeds cash rents billed to date under the
lease agreement. With respect to the allowance for deferred rent receivables, given the longer-term nature of these receivables, the specific identification
methodology analysis evaluates each of our significant tenants and any tenants on our internal watchlist and relies on factors such as each tenant’s financial
condition and its ability to meet its lease obligations. We evaluate our reserve levels quarterly based on changes in the financial condition of tenants and our
assessment of the tenant’s ability to meet its lease obligations, overall economic conditions, and the current business environment.
For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, we recorded a total allowance for uncollectible accounts for both current tenant receivables and deferred
rent receivables of approximately 0.3%, 0.4% and 0.5%, respectively, of total revenues. In addition, for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we recorded an
additional provision for uncollectible accounts of approximately 0.1% and 0.4%, respectively, of total revenues related to a note receivable. In the event our
estimates were not accurate and we had to change our allowances by 1% of revenue from continuing operations, the potential impact to our net income available to
common stockholders would be approximately $8.4 million, $7.5 million and $7.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
59
Acquisitions
Acquisitions of operating properties and development and redevelopment opportunities generally do not meet the definition of a business and are accounted
for as asset acquisitions, as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar
identifiable assets. For these asset acquisitions, we record the acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on each asset’s and liability’s
relative fair value at the acquisition date of the total purchase price plus any capitalized acquisition costs.
We assess and consider fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize available market information and discount and/or capitalization rates that
we deem appropriate. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and
market and economic conditions. The acquired assets and assumed liabilities for an operating property acquisition generally include but are not limited to: land and
improvements, buildings and improvements, construction in progress and identified tangible and intangible assets and liabilities associated with in-place leases,
including tenant improvements, leasing costs, value of above-market and below-market operating leases and ground leases, acquired in-place lease values and
tenant relationships, if any.
The fair value of land and improvements is derived from comparable sales of land and improvements within the same submarket and/or region. The fair value of
buildings and improvements, tenant improvements and leasing costs considers the value of the property as if it was vacant as well as current replacement costs and
other relevant market rate information.
The fair value of the above-market or below-market component of an acquired in-place operating lease is based upon the present value (calculated using a
market discount rate) of the difference between (i) the contractual rents to be paid pursuant to the lease over its remaining non-cancellable lease term and
(ii) management’s estimate of the rents that would be paid using fair market rental rates and rent escalations at the date of acquisition measured over the remaining
non-cancellable term of the lease for above-market operating leases and the initial non-cancellable term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options,
if applicable, for below-market operating leases. The amounts recorded for above-market operating leases are included in deferred leasing costs and acquisition-
related intangible assets, net on the balance sheet and are amortized on a straight-line basis as a reduction of rental income over the remaining term of the applicable
leases. The amounts recorded for below-market operating leases are included in deferred revenue and acquisition-related liabilities, net on the balance sheet and are
amortized on a straight-line basis as an increase to rental income over the remaining term of the applicable leases plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal
options, if applicable. Our below-market operating leases generally do not include fixed rate or below-market renewal options. If a lease were to be terminated or if
termination were determined to be likely prior to its contractual expiration (for example resulting from bankruptcy), amortization of the related above-market or below-
market lease intangible would be accelerated.
The fair value of acquired in-place leases is derived based on management’s assessment of lost revenue and costs incurred for the period required to lease the
“assumed vacant” property to the occupancy level when purchased. This fair value is based on a variety of considerations including, but not necessarily limited to:
(1) the value associated with avoiding the cost of originating the acquired in-place leases; (2) the value associated with lost revenue related to tenant reimbursable
operating costs estimated to be incurred during the assumed lease-up period; and (3) the value associated with lost rental revenue from existing leases during the
assumed lease-up period. Factors we consider in performing these analyses include an estimate of the carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods, current
market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, we include real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses, and
estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand at market rates. In estimating costs to execute similar leases,
we consider leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses. The amount recorded for acquired in-place leases is included in deferred leasing costs and
acquisition-related intangible assets, net on the balance sheet and amortized as an increase to depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining term of the
applicable leases. If a lease were to be terminated or if termination were determined to be likely prior to its contractual expiration (for example resulting from
bankruptcy), amortization of the related unamortized in-place lease intangible would be accelerated.
60
The determination of the fair value of any debt assumed in connection with a property acquisition is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using
interest rates available for the issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.
The determination of the fair value of the acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities of acquisitions requires us to make significant
judgments and assumptions about the numerous inputs discussed above. The use of different assumptions in these fair value calculations could significantly affect
the reported amounts of the allocation of our acquisition related assets and liabilities and the related depreciation and amortization expense recorded for such assets
and liabilities. In addition, because the value of above and below market leases are amortized as either a reduction or increase to rental income, respectively, our
judgments for these intangibles could have a significant impact on our reported rental revenues and results of operations.
Transaction costs associated with our acquisitions are capitalized as part of the purchase price of the acquisition. During the years ended December 31, 2019,
2018 and 2017, we capitalized $1.6 million, $3.8 million, and $4.6 million, respectively, of acquisition costs.
Evaluation of Asset Impairment
We evaluate our real estate assets for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a given asset may
not be recoverable. We evaluate our real estate assets for impairment on a property-by-property basis. Indicators we use to determine whether an impairment
evaluation is necessary include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
low occupancy levels, forecasted low occupancy levels or near term lease expirations at a specific property;
current period operating or cash flow losses combined with a historical pattern or future projection of potential continued operating or cash flow losses at a
specific property;
deterioration in rental rates for a specific property as evidenced by sudden significant rental rate decreases or continuous rental rate decreases over
numerous quarters, which could signal a continued decrease in future cash flow for that property;
deterioration of a given rental submarket as evidenced by significant increases in market vacancy and/or negative absorption rates or continuous increases
in market vacancy and/or negative absorption rates over numerous quarters, which could signal a decrease in future cash flow for properties within that
submarket;
significant increases in property sales yields, continuous increases in property sales yields over several quarters, or recent property sales at a loss within a
given submarket, each of which could signal a decrease in the market value of properties;
significant change in strategy or use of a specific property or any other event that could result in a decreased holding period, including classifying a
property as held for sale, or significant development delay;
evidence of material physical damage to the property; and
default by a significant tenant when any of the other indicators above are present.
When we evaluate for potential impairment our real estate assets to be held and used, we first evaluate whether there are any indicators of impairment. If any
impairment indicators are present for a specific real estate asset, we then perform an undiscounted cash flow analysis and compare the net carrying amount of the
real estate asset to the real estate asset’s estimated undiscounted future cash flow over the anticipated holding period. If the estimated undiscounted future cash
flow is less than the net carrying amount of the real estate asset, we perform an impairment loss calculation to determine if the fair value of the real estate asset is less
than the net carrying value of the real estate asset. Our impairment loss calculation compares the net carrying amount of the real estate asset to the real estate asset’s
estimated fair value, which may be based on estimated discounted future cash flow calculations or third-party valuations or appraisals. We recognize an impairment
loss if the amount of the asset’s net carrying amount exceeds the asset’s
61
estimated fair value. If we recognize an impairment loss, the estimated fair value of the asset becomes its new cost basis. For a depreciable long-lived asset, the new
cost basis would be depreciated (amortized) over the remaining useful life of that asset. If a real estate asset is designated as real estate held for sale, it is carried at
the lower of the net carrying value or estimated fair value less costs to sell, and depreciation ceases.
Our undiscounted cash flow and fair value calculations contain uncertainties because they require management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to
estimate future cash flow and property fair values, including determining our estimated holding period and selecting the discount or capitalization rate that reflects
the risk inherent in future cash flow. Estimating projected cash flow is highly subjective as it requires assumptions related to future rental rates, tenant allowances,
operating expenditures, property taxes, capital improvements, and occupancy levels. We are also required to make a number of assumptions relating to future
economic and market events and prospective operating trends. Determining the appropriate capitalization rate also requires significant judgment and is typically
based on many factors including the prevailing rate for the market or submarket, as well as the quality and location of the properties. Further, capitalization rates can
fluctuate resulting from a variety of factors in the overall economy or within regional markets. If the actual net cash flow or actual market capitalization rates
significantly differ from our estimates, the impairment evaluation for an individual asset could be materially affected.
For each property where such an indicator occurred and/or for properties within a given submarket where such an indicator occurred, we completed an
impairment evaluation. After completing this process, we determined that for each of the operating properties evaluated, undiscounted cash flows over the holding
period were in excess of carrying value and, therefore, we did not record any impairment losses for these properties.
Cost Capitalization and Depreciation
We capitalize costs associated with development and redevelopment activities, capital improvements, and tenant improvements, including internal
compensation costs. For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, we capitalized $25.6 million, $24.2 million and $23.2 million, respectively, of internal costs
to our qualifying development projects. In addition, for development and redevelopment projects, we also capitalize the following costs during periods in which
activities necessary to prepare the project for its intended use are in progress: interest costs based on the weighted average interest rate of our outstanding
indebtedness for the period, real estate taxes and insurance.
Amounts capitalized are depreciated or amortized over estimated useful lives determined by management. We depreciate buildings and improvements based on
the estimated useful life of the asset, and we amortize tenant improvements over the shorter of the estimated useful life or estimated remaining life of the related lease.
All capitalized costs are depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method.
Determining whether expenditures meet the criteria for capitalization and the assignment of depreciable lives requires management to exercise significant
judgment. Expenditures that meet one or more of the following criteria generally qualify for capitalization:
•
•
•
provide benefit in future periods;
extend the useful life of the asset beyond our original estimates; and
increase the quality of the asset beyond our original estimates.
Our historical experience has demonstrated that we have not had material write-offs of assets and that our depreciation and amortization estimates have been
reasonable and appropriate.
62
Share-Based Incentive Compensation Accounting
At December 31, 2019, the Company had one share-based incentive compensation plan, the Kilroy Realty 2006 Incentive Award Plan, which is described more
fully in Note 15 “Share-Based Compensation” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report. The Executive Compensation Committee determines
compensation for executive officers, as defined in Rule 16 under the Exchange Act. Compensation cost for all share-based awards, including options, requires an
estimate of fair value on the grant date and compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service vesting period, which represents the requisite
service period. The grant date fair value for compensation programs that contain market conditions, like modifiers based on total stockholder return (a “market
condition”), are performed using complex pricing valuation models that require the input of assumptions, including judgments to estimate expected stock price
volatility, expected life, and forfeiture rate. Specifically, the grant date fair value of share-based compensation programs that include market conditions are calculated
using a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model and the grant date fair value of stock option grants are calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model.
Additionally, certain of our market condition share-based compensation programs also contain pre-defined financial performance conditions, including FFO per
share, FAD per share growth, and debt to EBITDA ratio goals which can impact the number of restricted stock units ultimately earned. This variability relating to the
level of the performance condition achieved requires management’s judgment and estimates, which impacts compensation cost recognized for these awards during
the performance period. As of December 31, 2019, the performance condition for certain of our outstanding market condition share-based compensation programs
has been met and compensation cost for these awards is no longer variable. For these awards, although the number of restricted stock units ultimately earned
remains variable subject to the ultimate achievement level of the market condition, compensation cost is no longer variable for these awards as the market condition
was already taken into consideration as part of the grant date fair value calculation. As of December 31, 2019, there are certain outstanding share-based
compensation awards where the performance conditions have not all yet been met. For these awards, compensation cost and the number of restricted stock units
ultimately earned remains variable and compensation cost for these awards is recorded based the estimated level of achievement of the performance conditions
through the requisite service period. Changes to compensation cost resulting from changes in the estimated level of achievement of the performance conditions are
recorded as cumulative adjustments in the period the change in the estimated level of achievement of the performance conditions is determined.
For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 we recorded approximately $18.1 million, $23.5 million, and $14.5 million, respectively, of compensation
cost related to programs that were subject to such valuation models. If the valuation of the grant date fair value for such programs changed by 10%, the potential
impact to our net income available to common stockholders would be approximately $1.6 million, $2.0 million, and $1.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2019,
2018, and 2017, respectively.
Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations
Development Program
We believe that a portion of our long-term future growth will continue to come from the completion of our in-process development projects and, subject to
market conditions, executing on our future development pipeline, including expanding entitlements. Over the past several years, we increased our focus on
development opportunities and expanded our future development pipeline through targeted acquisitions of development opportunities on the West Coast. This
includes the acquisitions of two development sites in two separate transactions for a total cash purchase price of approximately $173.0 million in 2019, as discussed
in “—Acquisitions” below.
We have a proactive planning process by which we continually evaluate the size, timing, costs and scope of our development program and, as necessary, scale
activity to reflect the economic conditions and the real estate fundamentals that exist in our submarkets. We expect to execute on our development program with
prudence and will be pursuing opportunities with attractive economic returns in strategic locations with proximity to public transportation or transportation access
and retail amenities and in markets with strong fundamentals and visible demand. We plan to develop in phases as appropriate and we generally favor starting
projects with pre-leasing activity, as appropriate.

Stabilized Development Projects
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we added the following project to our stabilized portfolio:
•
100 Hooper, SOMA, San Francisco, California, which we commenced construction on in November 2016. This project encompasses 311,859 square feet of
office and 82,481 square feet of production, distribution and repair (“PDR”) space spanning two buildings with a total estimated investment of
approximately $275.0 million. The office portion of the project is 100% leased and occupied by Adobe Systems Inc. and the PDR space is 86% leased as of
the date of this report. We commenced revenue recognition on the lease with Adobe Systems Inc. on October 1, 2018. Cash rents on Phase I of the lease
commenced in March 2019 and cash rents on the remaining phases will commence through the second quarter of 2020.
Completed Residential Development Projects
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we completed the first phase of the following residential development project:
• One Paseo (Residential Phase I) - Del Mar, San Diego, California. We commenced construction on the first phase of the residential component of this mixed-
use project in December 2016, which includes 237 residential units. The total estimated investment for this phase of the residential component of the project
is approximately $145.0 million. As of the date of this report, 66% of the units have been leased.
In-Process Development Projects - Tenant Improvement
As of December 31, 2019, the following development projects were in the tenant improvement phase:
•
The Exchange on 16th, Mission Bay, San Francisco, California. We commenced construction on this project in June 2015. This project totals approximately
750,000 gross rentable square feet consisting of 738,000 square feet of office space and 12,000 square feet of retail space at a total estimated investment of
$585.0 million. The office space in the project is 100% leased to Dropbox, Inc. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we completed construction and
commenced revenue recognition on the first phase of the project in the second quarter of 2019 and on the second phase of the project in the fourth quarter
of 2019, totaling approximately 82% of the project. The remaining space is currently expected to stabilize in the third quarter of 2020. Cash rents on the
project will continue to commence through the first quarter of 2020.
• One Paseo (Retail) - Del Mar, San Diego, California. We commenced construction on the retail component of this mixed-use project in December 2016, which
is comprised of approximately 96,000 square feet of retail space with a total estimated investment of $100.0 million. As of the date of this report, the retail
space of the project was 100% leased and 89% occupied. This project will be added to our stabilized portfolio in the first quarter of 2020.
In-Process Development Projects - Under Construction
As of December 31, 2019, we had six projects in our in-process development pipeline that were under construction.
• Kilroy Oyster Point (Phase I), South San Francisco, California. In March 2019, we commenced construction on Phase I of this 39-acre life science campus
situated on the waterfront in South San Francisco. This first phase encompasses approximately 656,000 square feet of office space at a total estimated
investment of $570.0 million. In 2019, we executed two 12-year leases for 100% of Phase I of the project. We currently expect this project to stabilize in the
fourth quarter of 2021.
•
9455 Towne Centre Drive, University Towne Center, San Diego, California. In March 2019, we commenced construction on this project which totals
approximately 160,000 square feet of office space at a total estimated investment of $110.0 million. In December 2019, we executed a long-term lease with a
major technology company for 100% of the project. We currently expect this project to stabilize in the first quarter of 2021.

half of 2020. We commenced construction on the office component of the project in December 2018, which encompasses 285,000 square feet of office space
at a total estimated investment of $205.0 million. As of the date of this report, the office component of the project was 80% leased. We currently expect the
project to stabilize in the second quarter of 2021.
•
2100 Kettner, Little Italy, San Diego, California. We commenced construction on this project in September 2019. This project is comprised of approximately
200,000 square feet of office space for a total estimated investment of $140.0 million.
Future Development Pipeline
As of December 31, 2019, our future development pipeline included five future projects located in Greater Seattle, the San Francisco Bay Area and San Diego
County with an aggregate cost basis of approximately $985.7 million, at which we believe we could develop more than 6.0 million rentable square feet for a total
estimated investment of approximately $5.0 billion to $7.0 billion, depending on successfully obtaining entitlements and market conditions.
The following table sets forth information about our future development pipeline.

Fluctuations in our development activities could cause fluctuations in the average development asset balances qualifying for interest and other carrying cost
and internal cost capitalization in future periods. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we capitalized interest on in-process development projects and
future development pipeline projects with an average aggregate cost basis of approximately $2.0 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively, as it was determined these
projects qualified for interest and other carrying cost capitalization under GAAP. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we capitalized $81.2 million and
$68.1 million, respectively, of interest to our qualifying development projects. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we capitalized $25.6 million and $24.2
million, respectively, of internal costs to our qualifying redevelopment and development projects.
Capital Recycling Program. We continuously evaluate opportunities for the potential disposition of non-core properties and undeveloped land in our portfolio
or the formation of strategic ventures with the intent of recycling the proceeds generated into capital used to fund new operating and development acquisitions, to
finance development and redevelopment expenditures, to repay long-term debt and for other general corporate purposes. As part of this strategy, we attempt to
enter into Section 1031 Exchanges and other tax deferred transaction structures, when possible, to defer some or all of the taxable gains on the sales, if any, for
federal and state income tax purposes. See the “Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership – Liquidity Sources” section for further discussion of
our capital recycling activities.
In connection with our capital recycling strategy, during 2019, we completed the sale of two office properties to unaffiliated third parties for total gross sales
proceeds of $133.8 million. During 2018, we completed the sale of 11 office properties to unaffiliated third parties for total gross sales proceeds of $373.0 million.
The timing of any potential future disposition or strategic venture transactions will depend on market conditions and other factors, including but not limited to
our capital needs and our ability to defer some or all of the taxable gains on the sales. We cannot assure that we will dispose of any additional properties, enter into
any additional strategic ventures, or that we will be able to identify and complete the acquisition of a suitable replacement property to effect a Section 1031 Exchange
or be able to use other tax deferred structures in connection with our strategy. See the “Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership – Liquidity
Sources” section for further information.
Acquisitions. As part of our growth strategy, which is highly dependent on market conditions and business cycles, among other factors, we continue to
evaluate strategic opportunities and remain a disciplined buyer of development and redevelopment opportunities as well as value-add operating properties. We
continue to focus on growth opportunities in West Coast markets populated by knowledge and creative based tenants in a variety of industries, including
technology, media, healthcare, life sciences, entertainment and professional services. Against the backdrop of market volatility, we expect to manage a strong
balance sheet, execute on our development program and selectively evaluate opportunities that either add immediate Net Operating Income to our portfolio or play a
strategic role in our future growth.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we acquired a 19-building creative office campus and two development sites in three transactions for a total cash
purchase price of $359.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we acquired four office buildings in two transactions for a total cash purchase price of
$257.0 million and a 39-acre development site for approximately $308.2 million. We generally finance our acquisitions through proceeds from the issuance of debt and
equity securities, borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, proceeds from our capital recycling program, the assumption of existing debt and cash
flows from operations.
We cannot provide assurance that we will enter into any agreements to acquire properties, or undeveloped land, or that the potential acquisitions contemplated
by any agreements we may enter into in the future will be completed. In addition, acquisitions are subject to various risks and uncertainties and we may be unable to
complete an acquisition after making a nonrefundable deposit or incurring acquisition-related costs.
Incentive Compensation. Our Executive Compensation Committee determines compensation, including cash bonuses and equity incentives, for our executive
officers, as defined in Rule 16 under the Exchange Act. For 2019, the annual cash bonus program was structured to allow the Executive Compensation Committee to
evaluate a variety of key quantitative and qualitative metrics at the end of the year and make a determination based on the Company’s and
66
management’s overall performance. Our Executive Compensation Committee also grants equity incentive awards from time to time that include performance-based
and/or market-measure based vesting requirements and time-based vesting requirements. As a result, accrued incentive compensation and compensation expense
for future awards may be affected by our operating and development performance, financial results, stock price, performance against applicable performance-based
vesting goals, market conditions, liquidity measures, and other factors. Consequently, we cannot predict the amounts that will be recorded in future periods related
to such incentive compensation.
As of December 31, 2019, there was approximately $50.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding nonvested shares of restricted
common stock and RSUs issued under share-based compensation arrangements. Those costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of
2.1 years. The $50.5 million of unrecognized compensation cost does not reflect the future compensation cost for any potential share-based awards that may be
issued subsequent to December 31, 2019. Share-based compensation expense for potential future awards could be affected by our operating and development
performance, financial results, stock price, performance against applicable performance-based vesting goals, market conditions and other factors.
Information on Leases Commenced and Executed
Leasing Activity and Changes in Rental Rates. The amount of net rental income generated by our properties depends principally on our ability to maintain the
occupancy rates of currently leased space and to lease currently available space, newly developed or redeveloped properties, newly acquired properties with vacant
space, and space available from unscheduled lease terminations. The amount of rental income we generate also depends on our ability to maintain or increase rental
rates in our submarkets. Negative trends in one or more of these factors could adversely affect our rental income in future periods. The following tables set forth
certain information regarding leasing activity for our stabilized portfolio during the year ended December 31, 2019.

(3) Represents leasing activity for leases that commenced or were signed during the period, including first and second generation space, net of month-to-month leases. Excludes leasing on
new construction.
(4) Calculated as the percentage of space either renewed or expanded into by existing tenants or subtenants at lease expiration.
(5) Tenant improvements and leasing commissions per square foot exclude tenant-funded tenant improvements.
(6) Calculated as the change between GAAP rents for new/renewed leases and the expiring GAAP rents for the same space. Excludes leases for which the space was vacant longer than one
year or vacant when the property was acquired.
(7) Excludes commenced and executed leases of approximately 355,829 and 215,640 rentable square feet, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2019, for which the space was
vacant longer than one year or being leased for the first time. Space vacant for more than one year is excluded from our change in rents calculations to provide a more meaningful
market comparison.
(8) Calculated as the change between stated rents for new/renewed leases and the expiring stated rents for the same space. Excludes leases for which the space was vacant longer than one
year or vacant when the property was acquired.
(9) For the year ended December 31, 2019, 34 new leases totaling 644,176 rentable square feet were signed but not commenced as of December 31, 2019.
As of December 31, 2019, we believe that the weighted average cash rental rates for our total stabilized portfolio, are approximately 20% below the current
average market rental rates. Individual properties within any particular submarket presently may be leased either above, below, or at the current market rates within
that submarket, and the average rental rates for individual submarkets may be above, below, or at the average cash rental rate of our portfolio.
Our rental rates and occupancy are impacted by general economic conditions, including the pace of regional economic growth and access to capital. Therefore,
we cannot give any assurance that leases will be renewed or that available space will be re-leased at rental rates equal to or above the current market rates.
Additionally, decreased demand and other negative trends or unforeseeable events that impair our ability to timely renew or re-lease space could have further
negative effects on our future financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

(1) For leases that have been renewed early with existing tenants, the expiration date and annualized base rent information presented takes into consideration the renewed lease terms.
Excludes leases not commenced as of December 31, 2019, space leased under month-to-month leases, storage leases, vacant space and future lease renewal options not executed as of
December 31, 2019.
(2) Annualized base rent includes the impact of straight-lining rent escalations and the amortization of free rent periods and excludes the impact of the following: amortization of deferred
revenue related tenant-funded tenant improvements, amortization of above/below market rents, amortization for lease incentives due under existing leases, and expense reimbursement
revenue. Additionally, the underlying leases contain various expense structures including full service gross, modified gross and triple net. Percentages represent percentage of total
portfolio annualized contractual base rental revenue. For additional information on tenant improvement and leasing commission costs incurred by the Company for the current
reporting period, please see further discussion under the caption “ Information on Leases Commenced and Executed.”
(3) Includes 100% of annualized base rent of consolidated property partnerships.
(4) Adjusting for leases executed as of December 31, 2019 but not yet commenced, the 2020 and 2021 expirations would be reduced by 267,449 and 173,267 square feet, respectively.
In addition to the 0.7 million rentable square feet, or 5.4%, of currently available space in our stabilized portfolio, leases representing approximately 7.7% and
6.8% of the occupied square footage of our stabilized portfolio are scheduled to expire during 2020 and 2021, respectively. The leases scheduled to expire in 2020 and
2021 represent approximately 1.8 million rentable square feet, or 12.2%, of our total annualized base rental revenue. Individual properties within any particular
submarket presently may be leased either above, below, or at the current quoted market rates within that submarket. Our ability to re-lease available space depends
upon both general market conditions and the market conditions in the specific regions in which individual properties are located.
Approximately 1.0 million rentable square feet, or 6.6%, of our total annualized base rental revenue, and 0.8 million rentable square feet, or 5.6% of our total
annualized base rental revenue, is scheduled to expire in 2020 and 2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2019, we had executed leases for 0.3 million and 0.2 million
rentable square feet of the expiring 1.0 million and 0.8 million rentable square feet in 2020 and 2021, respectively. For the 0.3 million leased rentable square feet of 2020
expirations, we believe that the weighted average cash rental rates are approximately 20.0% below market. We believe the weighted average cash rental rates for the
remaining 0.7 million expiring rentable feet in 2020 are approximately 20% below current average market rental rates. For the 0.2 million leased rentable square
69
feet of 2021 expirations, we believe that the weighted average cash rental rates are approximately 75% below market. We believe the weighted average cash rental
rates for the remaining 0.6 million expiring rentable feet are approximately 25% below current average market rental rates.
Stabilized Portfolio Information
As of December 31, 2019, our stabilized portfolio was comprised of 112 office properties encompassing an aggregate of approximately 13.5 million rentable
square feet and 200 residential units at our residential tower in Hollywood, California. Our stabilized portfolio includes all of our properties with the exception of
development and redevelopment properties currently committed for construction, under construction or in the tenant improvement phase, undeveloped land,
recently completed residential properties not yet stabilized and real estate assets held for sale. We define redevelopment properties as those properties for which we
expect to spend significant development and construction costs on the existing or acquired buildings pursuant to a formal plan, the intended result of which is a
higher economic return on the property. We define properties in the tenant improvement phase as office and retail properties that we are developing or redeveloping
where the project has reached cold shell condition and is ready for tenant improvements, which may require additional major base building construction before being
placed in service. Projects in the tenant improvement phase are added to our stabilized portfolio once the project reaches the earlier of 95% occupancy or one year
from the date of the cessation of major base building construction activities. Costs capitalized to construction in progress for development and redevelopment
properties are transferred to land and improvements, buildings and improvements, and deferred leasing costs on our consolidated balance sheets as the historical
cost of the property as the projects are placed in service.
We did not have any redevelopment or held for sale properties at December 31, 2019. Our stabilized portfolio also excludes our future development pipeline,
which as of December 31, 2019 was comprised of five potential development sites, representing approximately 61 gross acres of undeveloped land on which we
believe we have the potential to develop more than 6.0 million rentable square feet, depending upon economic conditions.
As of December 31, 2019, the following properties were excluded from our stabilized portfolio:

Results of Operations
Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2019 to the Year Ended December 31, 2018
Net Operating Income
Management internally evaluates the operating performance and financial results of our stabilized portfolio based on Net Operating Income. We define
“Net Operating Income” subsequent to the adoption of Topic 842 as consolidated operating revenues (rental income and other property income) less consolidated
operating expenses (property expenses, real estate taxes and ground leases). Prior to the adoption of Topic 842 we defined Net Operating Income as consolidated
operating revenues (rental income, tenant reimbursements and other property income) less consolidated operating expenses (property expenses, real estate taxes,
provision for bad debts and ground leases).
Net Operating Income is considered by management to be an important and appropriate supplemental performance measure to net income because we believe it
helps both investors and management to understand the core operations of our properties excluding corporate and financing-related costs and non-cash
depreciation and amortization. Net Operating Income is an unlevered operating performance metric of our properties and allows for a useful comparison of the
operating performance of individual assets or groups of assets. This measure thereby provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP
income from operations or net income. In addition, Net Operating Income is considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful starting point for
determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets. Other real estate companies may use different methodologies for calculating Net Operating Income,
and accordingly, our presentation of Net Operating Income may not be comparable to other real estate companies. Because of the exclusion of the items shown in
the reconciliation below, Net Operating Income should only be used as a supplemental measure of our financial performance and not as an alternative to GAAP
income from operations or net income.
Management further evaluates Net Operating Income by evaluating the performance from the following property groups:
•
Same Store Properties – includes the consolidated results of all of the office properties that were owned and included in our stabilized portfolio for two
comparable reporting periods, i.e., owned and included in our stabilized portfolio as of January 1, 2018 and still owned and included in the stabilized
portfolio as of December 31, 2019, including our residential tower in Hollywood, California;
• Development Properties – includes the results generated by our stabilized development projects, certain of our in-process development projects and
expenses for certain of our future development projects, including one office and one retail project in the tenant improvement phase that commenced
revenue recognition in the second quarter of 2019, one office development project that was added to the stabilized portfolio in the second quarter of
2019 and the first phase of our residential development project that was completed in the third quarter of 2019.
• Acquisition Properties – includes the results, from the dates of acquisition through the periods presented, for the 19-building creative office campus we
acquired during 2019 and the four office buildings we acquired in 2018; and
• Disposition Properties – includes the results of the 11 properties disposed of in the fourth quarter of 2018, the one property disposed of in the second
quarter of 2019 and the one property disposed of in the fourth quarter of 2019.

The Company adopted Topic 842 on January 1, 2019 which resulted in rental revenues, tenant reimbursements, provision for/recoveries of bad debts, and lease
termination fees being presented as one single component in rental income. The presentation changes required by Topic 842 were adopted prospectively with no
restatement of previously reported periods required.
74
Net Operating Income increased $60.4 million, or 11.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2019 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2018 primarily
resulting from:
• An increase of $26.1 million attributable to the Same Store Properties primarily resulting from:
• An increase in total operating revenues of $43.9 million or 6.3% primarily due to the following:
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
$20.0 million increase primarily due to new leases and renewals at higher average rental rates in the San Francisco Bay Area, Greater Seattle
and Los Angeles regions;
$12.0 million increase due to the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, resulting in the gross-up of tenant direct billbacks, which were
previously presented net in operating expenses. These billbacks are also included in property expenses and have no net impact on operating
income;
$5.2 million increase due to tenant recoveries of the new Proposition C gross receipts tax for San Francisco effective January 1, 2019; and
$3.1 million increase due to higher recoveries of recurring expenses related to property taxes, repairs and maintenance, security, utilities,
parking and various other recurring expenses at certain properties;
$3.1 million net increase primarily due to a $4.2 million increase in revenue related to the improved credit quality of a tenant for which the
Company recorded a bad debt reserve in 2018, partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in revenue for other tenants with diminished credit
quality during the year ended December 31, 2019. The provision for bad debts is included in rental income beginning January 1, 2019 in
connection with the adoption of Topic 842; and
$2.5 million increase in parking revenue primarily due to higher tenant parking at certain properties; partially offset by
$2.1 million decrease in early lease termination fees primarily due to early terminations for two tenants in 2018;
• An increase in property and related expenses of $17.8 million or 8.9% primarily resulting from:
• An increase of $21.2 million in property expenses primarily due to:
◦
◦
◦
$12.0 million increase due to the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, resulting in the gross-up of tenant direct billbacks, which were
previously presented net in property expenses. These billbacks are also included in operating revenues and have no net impact on net
operating income;
$5.2 million increase due to the new Proposition C gross receipts tax in San Francisco passed through to tenants which became effective on
January 1, 2019; and
$3.7 million increase primarily due to higher reimbursable expenses including utilities, security, repairs and maintenance and various other
recurring expenses;
• An increase of $0.5 million in real estate taxes primarily due to:
◦
◦
$1.1 million increase due to higher supplemental taxes assessed in 2019 for the 2016 to 2019 tax years at two properties in the Greater Los
Angeles area;
$1.0 million increase from regular annual property tax increases in 2019; offset by
75
◦
$1.9 million decrease due to the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, which resulted in property taxes related to properties where the
Company is the lessee under a ground lease to be presented in ground lease expense;
• An increase in ground leases of $1.8 million primarily due to the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, which resulted in property taxes related
to properties where the Company is the lessee under a ground lease to be presented in ground lease expense; partially offset by
• A decrease of $5.7 million due to 2018 reserves primarily related to one tenant. The provision for bad debts was included in operating expenses
prior to the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019;
• An increase of $40.7 million attributable to the Development Properties; and
• An increase of $15.5 million attributable to the Acquisition Properties; partially offset by
• A decrease of $22.0 million attributable to the Disposition Properties.
Other Expenses and Income
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $2.3 million, or 2.6%, for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended
December 31, 2018 primarily due to the following:
• A decrease of $10.6 million primarily due to lower executive retirement benefit expense; offset by
• An increase of $5.7 million related to the mark-to-market adjustment for the Company’s deferred compensation plan which is offset by gains on the
underlying marketable securities included in interest income and other net investment gains in the consolidated statements of operations; and
• A net increase of $2.6 million due to higher compensation and other expenses related to the growth of the Company offset by lower legal fees in 2019
compared to 2018.
Leasing Costs
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Topic 842 and expensed $7.6 million of indirect leasing costs during the year ended December 31, 2019.
Amounts in prior periods were capitalized under previous accounting guidance.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately $18.8 million, or 7.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended December 31,
2018, primarily due to the following:
• An increase of $4.9 million attributable to the Same Store Properties;
• An increase of $12.8 million attributable to the Acquisition Properties;
• An increase of $13.3 million attributable to the Development Properties; partially offset by
• A decrease of $12.2 million attributable to the Disposition Properties.

Gross interest expense, before the effect of capitalized interest and deferred financing costs, increased $12.0 million, or 10.2%, for the year ended December 31,
2019 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to an increase in the average outstanding debt balance for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Capitalized interest and deferred financing costs increased $13.2 million, or 19.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended
December 31, 2018, primarily attributable to an increase in the average development asset balances qualifying for interest capitalization during 2019 as compared to
2018. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we capitalized interest on in-process development projects and future development pipeline projects with
an average aggregate cost basis of approximately $2.0 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively.
Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt
In November 2018, we early redeemed the $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 6.625% unsecured senior notes that were scheduled to
mature on June 1, 2020. In connection with our early redemption, we incurred a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $12.6 million, which was comprised of a
premium paid to the note holders at the redemption date of $11.8 million and a write-off of the unamortized discount and deferred financing costs of $0.8 million.
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated property partnerships
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated property partnerships increased $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared
to the year ended December 31, 2018 primarily due to a new lease at a higher rate at one property held in a property partnership in 2019. The amounts reported for the
years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 are comprised of the noncontrolling interest’s share of net income for 100 First Member, LLC (“100 First LLC”) and 303
Second Street Member, LLC (“303 Second LLC”) and the noncontrolling interest’s share of net income for Redwood LLC. See Note 11 “Noncontrolling Interests on
the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information.

Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company
In this “Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company” section, the term the “Company” refers only to Kilroy Realty Corporation on an unconsolidated basis
and excludes the Operating Partnership and all other subsidiaries.
The Company’s business is operated primarily through the Operating Partnership. Distributions from the Operating Partnership are the Company’s primary
source of capital. The Company believes the Operating Partnership’s sources of working capital, specifically its cash flow from operations and borrowings available
under its unsecured revolving credit facility and funds from its capital recycling program, including strategic ventures, are adequate for it to make its distribution
payments to the Company and, in turn, for the Company to make its dividend payments to its common stockholders for the next twelve months. Cash flows from
operating activities generated by the Operating Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2019 were sufficient to cover the Company’s payment of cash dividends
to its stockholders. However, there can be no assurance that the Operating Partnership’s sources of capital will continue to be available at all or in amounts
sufficient to meet its needs, including its ability to make distributions to the Company. The unavailability of capital could adversely affect the Operating
Partnership’s ability to make distributions to the Company, which would in turn, adversely affect the Company’s ability to pay cash dividends to its stockholders.
The Company is a well-known seasoned issuer and the Company and the Operating Partnership have an effective shelf registration statement that provides for
the public offering and sale from time to time by the Company of its preferred stock, common stock, depositary shares, warrants and guarantees of debt securities
and by the Operating Partnership of its debt securities, in each case in unlimited amounts. The Company evaluates the capital markets on an ongoing basis for
opportunities to raise capital, and, as circumstances warrant, the Company and the Operating Partnership may issue securities of all of these types in one or more
offerings at any time and from time to time on an opportunistic basis, depending upon, among other things, market conditions, available pricing and capital needs.
When the Company receives proceeds from the sales of its preferred or common stock, it generally contributes the net proceeds from those sales to the Operating
Partnership in exchange for corresponding preferred or common partnership units of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership may use these proceeds
and proceeds from the sale of its debt securities to repay debt, including borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility, to develop new or existing
properties, to make acquisitions of properties or portfolios of properties, or for general corporate purposes.
As the sole general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and
the Company does not have significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities and the revenues and
expenses of the Company and the Operating Partnership are substantially the same on their respective financial statements. The section entitled “Liquidity and
Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership” should be read in conjunction with this section to understand the liquidity and capital resources of the Company on
a consolidated basis and how the Company is operated as a whole.
Distribution Requirements
The Company is required to distribute 90% of its taxable income (subject to certain adjustments and excluding net capital gains) on an annual basis to maintain
qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and is required to pay income tax at regular corporate rates to the extent it distributes less than 100% of its
taxable income (including capital gains). As a result of these distribution requirements, the Operating Partnership cannot rely on retained earnings to fund its on-
going operations to the same extent as other companies whose parent companies are not REITs. In addition, the Company may be required to use borrowings under
the Operating Partnership’s revolving credit facility, if necessary, to meet REIT distribution requirements and maintain its REIT status. The Company may also need
to continue to raise capital in the equity markets to fund the Operating Partnership’s working capital needs, as well as potential developments of new or existing
properties or acquisitions.
The Company intends to continue to make, but has not committed to make, regular quarterly cash distributions to common stockholders, and through the
Operating Partnership, common unitholders from the Operating Partnership’s cash flow from operating activities. All such distributions are at the discretion of the
Board of Directors. In 2019, the Company’s distributions exceeded 100% of its taxable income, resulting in a return of capital to its stockholders. As the Company
intends to maintain distributions at a level sufficient to meet the REIT distribution requirements and
78
minimize its obligation to pay income and excise taxes, it will continue to evaluate whether the current levels of distribution are sufficient to do so for 2020. In
addition, in the event the Company is unable to identify and complete the acquisition of suitable replacement properties to effect Section 1031 Exchanges or is
unable to successfully complete Section 1031 Exchanges to defer some or all of the taxable gains related to property dispositions, the Company may elect to
distribute a special dividend to its common stockholders and common unitholders in order to minimize or eliminate income taxes on such gains. The Company
considers market factors and its performance in addition to REIT requirements in determining its distribution levels. Amounts accumulated for distribution to
stockholders are invested primarily in interest-bearing accounts and short-term interest-bearing securities, which is consistent with the Company’s intention to
maintain its qualification as a REIT. Such investments may include, for example, obligations of the Government National Mortgage Association, other governmental
agency securities, certificates of deposit, and interest-bearing bank deposits.
On December 10, 2019, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.485 per share of common stock. The regular quarterly cash
dividend is payable to stockholders of record on December 31, 2019 and a corresponding cash distribution of $0.485 per Operating Partnership units is payable to
holders of the Operating Partnership’s common limited partnership interests of record on December 31, 2019, including those owned by the Company. The total cash
quarterly dividends and distributions paid on January 15, 2020 were $52.4 million.
Debt Covenants
The covenants contained within certain of our unsecured debt obligations generally prohibit the Company from paying dividends during an event of default in
excess of an amount which results in distributions to us in an amount sufficient to permit us to pay dividends to our stockholders that we reasonably believe are
necessary to (a) maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes and (b) avoid the payment of federal or state income or excise tax.
79
Capitalization
As of December 31, 2019, our total debt as a percentage of total market capitalization was 28.3%, which was calculated based on the closing price per share of
the Company’s common stock of $83.90 on December 31, 2019 as shown in the following table:

Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership
In this “Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership” section, the terms “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to the Operating Partnership or the
Operating Partnership and the Company together, as the context requires.
General
Our primary liquidity sources and uses are as follows:
Liquidity Sources
• Net cash flow from operations;
• Borrowings under the Operating Partnership’s unsecured revolving credit facility and term loan facility;
•
Proceeds from our capital recycling program, including the disposition of assets and the formation of strategic ventures;
80
•
•
Proceeds from additional secured or unsecured debt financings; and
Proceeds from public or private issuance of debt, equity or preferred equity securities.
Liquidity Uses
• Development and redevelopment costs;
• Operating property or undeveloped land acquisitions;
•
Property operating and corporate expenses;
• Capital expenditures, tenant improvement and leasing costs;
• Debt service and principal payments, including debt maturities;
• Distributions to common security holders;
• Repurchases and redemptions of outstanding common stock of the Company; and
• Outstanding debt repurchases, redemptions and repayments.
General Strategy
Our general strategy is to maintain a conservative balance sheet with a strong credit profile and to maintain a capital structure that allows for financial flexibility
and diversification of capital resources. We manage our capital structure to reflect a long-term investment approach and utilize multiple sources of capital to meet our
long-term capital requirements. We believe that our current projected liquidity requirements for the next twelve-month period, as set forth above under the caption
“—Liquidity Uses,” will be satisfied using a combination of the liquidity sources listed above, although there can be no assurance in this regard. We believe our
conservative leverage and staggered debt maturities provide us with financial flexibility and enhance our ability to obtain additional sources of liquidity if necessary,
and, therefore, we are well-positioned to refinance or repay maturing debt and to pursue our strategy of seeking attractive acquisition opportunities, which we may
finance, as necessary, with future public and private issuances of debt and equity securities.
2019 Capital and Financing Transactions
We continue to be active in the capital markets and our capital recycling program to finance our acquisition and development activity and our continued desire
to extend our debt maturities. This was primarily a result of the following activity:
Capital Recycling Program
• During the year ended December 31, 2019, we completed the sale of two office buildings to unaffiliated third parties for gross sales proceeds totaling
approximately $133.8 million.
Capital Markets / Debt Transactions
•
In addition to obtaining funding from our capital recycling program during 2019, we successfully completed the following financing and capital raising
activities to fund our continued growth. We continued to strengthen our balance sheet and lower our overall cost of capital.
•
•
Fully physically settled the forward equity sale agreements entered into in August 2018. Upon settlement, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of
common stock for net proceeds of $354.3 million;
Issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 10-year 3.050% unsecured senior notes due February 2030 in an underwritten public offering;
and
81
•
Executed various 12-month forward equity sale agreements throughout 2019, under our at-the-market stock offering program, with financial
institutions acting as forward purchasers to sell 3,147,110 shares of common stock at a weighted average sales price of $80.08 per share before
underwriting discounts, commissions, and offering expenses. We currently expect to fully physically settle the forward equity sale agreements and
receive cash proceeds upon one or more settlement dates, at the Company’s discretion, prior to the final settlement dates in the first quarter of
2020 through the first quarter of 2021.

Capital Recycling Program
In connection with our capital recycling strategy, through December 31, 2019, we completed the sale of two properties to unaffiliated third parties for gross sales
proceeds totaling approximately $133.8 million. During 2018, we completed the sale of 11 office properties to unaffiliated third parties for total gross sales proceeds of
$373.0 million. See “—Factors that May Influence Future Operations” and Note 4 “Dispositions” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report for
additional information.
We currently anticipate that in 2020 we could raise additional capital through our dispositions program ranging from approximately $150 million to $300 million.
However, any potential future disposition transactions will depend on market conditions and other factors including but not limited to our capital needs and our
ability to defer some or all of the taxable gains on the sales. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will dispose of any additional properties or that we will be able
to identify and complete the acquisition of suitable replacement properties to effect Section 1031 Exchanges to defer some or all of the taxable capital gains related to
our capital recycling program.
Settlement of 2018 Common Stock Forward Equity Sale Agreements
In July 2019, the Company physically settled the forward equity sale agreements entered into in August 2018 with certain financial institutions acting as forward
purchasers in connection with an offering of 5,000,000 shares of common stock at an initial gross offering price of $360.5 million, or $72.10 per share, before
underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses. Upon settlement, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $354.3
million and contributed the net proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for an equal number of units in the Operating Partnership.
At-The-Market Stock Offering Program
Under our 2018 At-The-Market-Program (the “2018 At-The-Market Program”), which commenced June 2018, we may offer and sell shares of our common stock
with an aggregate gross sales price of up to $500.0 million from time to time in “at-the-market” offerings. In connection with the at-the-market program, the Company
may also, at its discretion, enter into forward equity sale agreements (see “Note 13. Stockholders’ Equity of the Company” to our consolidated financial statements
included in this report for additional information).
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we executed various 12-month forward equity sale agreements under the 2018 At-The-Market Program with financial
institutions acting as forward purchasers to sell 3,147,110 shares of common stock at a weighted average sales price of $80.08 per share before underwriting
discounts, commissions and offering expenses. The Company did not directly sell any shares of our common stock under the 2018 At-The-Market Program during
the year and did not receive any proceeds from the sale of its shares of common stock by the forward purchasers. The Company currently expects to fully physically
settle the forward equity sale agreements and receive cash proceeds upon one or more settlement dates, at the Company’s discretion, prior to the final settlement
dates in the first quarter of 2020 through the first quarter of 2021, at which time we expect to receive aggregate net cash proceeds at settlement equal to the number of
shares specified in such forward equity sale agreement multiplied by the relevant forward price per share. The weighted average forward sale price that we expect to
receive upon physical settlement of the agreements will be subject to adjustment for (i) a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily rate less a spread, (ii)
the forward purchasers’ stock borrowing costs and (iii) scheduled dividends during the term of the agreements. We have not settled any portion of these forward
equity sale agreements as of the date of this filing. Upon physical settlement, the Company will contribute the net proceeds from the issuance of shares of our
common stock to the Operating Partnership in exchange for an equal number of units in the Operating Partnership.
Since commencement of the 2018 Program, we have directly sold 447,466 shares of common stock through December 31, 2019 and 3,147,110 shares have been
sold by forward purchasers under forward equity sale agreements, which have not been settled as of the date of this filing. As of December 31, 2019, approximately
$214.2 million remains available to be sold under this program.

The following table sets forth information regarding direct sales of our common stock under the 2018 At-The-Market Program and our 2014 at-the-market
program for the year ended December 31, 2018:

The proceeds from sales were used to fund development expenditures, acquisitions, and general corporate purposes, including repayment of borrowings under
the unsecured revolving credit facility. Actual future sales will depend upon a variety of factors, including, but not limited to market conditions, the trading price of
the Company’s common stock and our capital needs. We have no obligation to sell the remaining shares available for sale under this program.
Shelf Registration Statement
As discussed above under “—Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company,” the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer and the Company and the
Operating Partnership have an effective shelf registration statement that provides for the public offering and sale from time to time by the Company of its preferred
stock, common stock, depository shares and guarantees of debt securities and by the Operating Partnership of its debt securities, in each case in unlimited amounts.
The Company evaluates the capital markets on an ongoing basis for opportunities to raise capital, and, as circumstances warrant, the Company and the Operating
Partnership may issue securities of all of these types in one or more offerings at any time and from time to time on an opportunistic basis, depending upon, among
other things, market conditions, available pricing and capital needs. When the Company receives proceeds from the sales of its preferred or common stock, it
generally contributes the net proceeds from those sales to the Operating Partnership in exchange for corresponding preferred or common partnership units of the
Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership may use these proceeds and proceeds from the sale of its debt securities to repay debt, including borrowings
under its unsecured revolving credit facility, to develop new or existing properties, to make acquisitions of properties or portfolios of properties, or for general
corporate purposes. In September 2019, the Company filed with the Securities Exchange Commission a new shelf registration statement on Form S-3 which became
immediately effective upon filing.
Unsecured Senior Notes
In September 2019, the Operating Partnership issued $500.0 million of aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes in a registered public offering. The
outstanding balance of the unsecured senior notes is included in unsecured debt, net of an initial issuance discount of $0.6 million, on our consolidated balance
sheets. The unsecured senior notes, which are scheduled to mature on February 15, 2030, require semi-annual interest payments each February and August based
on a stated annual interest rate of 3.050%. The Operating Partnership may redeem the notes at any time prior to February 15, 2030, either in whole or in part, subject
to the payment of an early redemption premium prior to a par call option period commencing three months prior to maturity.

payments based on the outstanding principal balances as of December 31, 2019, the scheduled interest payment dates and the contractual maturity date.
(6) Reflects minimum lease payments through the contractual lease expiration date before the impact of extension options. See Note 18 “ Commitments and Contingencies” to our
consolidated financial statements included in this report for further information.
(7) Amounts represent cash commitments under signed leases and contracts for operating properties, excluding tenant-funded tenant improvements, and for other contractual
commitments. The timing of these expenditures may fluctuate.
(8) Amounts represent commitments under signed leases for pre-leased development projects and contractual commitments for projects in the tenant improvement phase and under
construction as of December 31, 2019. The timing of these expenditures may fluctuate based on the ultimate progress of construction. We may start additional construction in 2020
(see “ —Development” for additional information).
Other Liquidity Uses
Development
As of December 31, 2019, we had six development projects under construction. These projects have a total estimated investment of approximately $2.2 billion, of
which we have incurred approximately $1.3 billion and committed an additional $826.0 million as of December 31, 2019. In addition, as of December 31, 2019, we had
two development projects in the tenant improvement phase. These projects have a total estimated investment of
86
approximately $685.0 million of which we have incurred approximately $640.0 million, net of retention, and committed an additional $38.0 million as of December 31,
2019. We also had one stabilized development project and one completed residential project with a total estimated investment of $420.0 million of which we have
incurred approximately $400.0 million and committed an additional $17.0 million as of December 31, 2019. Including the commitment information in the table above we
currently believe we may spend between $500.0 million to $600.0 million on development projects throughout 2020. Ultimate timing of these expenditures may
fluctuate given construction progress and leasing status of the projects. We expect that any material additional development activities will be funded with
borrowings under the unsecured revolving credit facility, the public or private issuance of debt or equity securities, the disposition of assets under our capital
recycling program, or strategic venture opportunities.
Debt Maturities
We believe our conservative leverage and staggered debt maturities provide us with financial flexibility and enhance our ability to obtain additional sources of
liquidity if necessary, and, therefore, we believe we are well-positioned to refinance or repay maturing debt and to pursue our strategy of seeking attractive
acquisition opportunities, which we may finance, as necessary, with future public and private issuances of debt and equity securities. However, we can provide no
assurance that we will have access to the public or private debt or equity markets in the future on favorable terms or at all. Our next debt maturities occur in July
2022.
Potential Future Acquisitions
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we acquired a 19-building creative office campus and two development sites for a total of $359.0 million in cash.
During 2018, we acquired four office buildings and a 39-acre development site for a total of $565.2 million in cash. These transactions were funded through various
capital raising activities and liquidity as discussed in “—Liquidity Sources”.
As discussed in the section “—Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations - Acquisitions,” we continue to evaluate strategic opportunities and
remain a disciplined buyer of development and redevelopment opportunities as well as value-add operating properties, dependent on market conditions and
business cycles, among other factors. We continue to focus on growth opportunities in West Coast markets populated by knowledge and creative based tenants in
a variety of industries, including technology, media, healthcare, life sciences, entertainment and professional services. Any material acquisitions will be funded with
borrowings under the unsecured revolving credit facility, the public or private issuance of debt or equity securities, the disposition of assets under our capital
recycling program, the formation of strategic ventures or through the assumption of existing debt. We cannot provide assurance that we will enter into any
agreements to acquire properties, or undeveloped land, or that the potential acquisitions contemplated by any agreements we may enter into in the future will be
completed.
Share Repurchases
An aggregate of 4,935,826 shares currently remain eligible for repurchase under a share repurchase program approved by the Company’s board of directors in
2016. Under this program, repurchases may be made in open market transactions at prevailing prices or through privately negotiated transactions. We may elect to
repurchase shares of our common stock under this program in the future depending upon various factors, including market conditions, the trading price of our
common stock and our other uses of capital. This program does not have a termination date, and repurchases may be discontinued at any time. We intend to fund
repurchases, if any, primarily with the proceeds from property dispositions.
Potential Future Leasing Costs and Capital Improvements
The amounts we incur for tenant improvements and leasing costs depend on leasing activity in each period. Tenant improvements and leasing costs generally
fluctuate in any given period depending on factors such as the type and condition of the property, the term of the lease, the type of the lease, the involvement of
external leasing agents and overall market conditions. Capital expenditures may fluctuate in any given period subject to the nature, extent and timing of
improvements required to maintain our properties.
87
For properties within our stabilized portfolio, excluding our development properties, we believe we could spend approximately $20.0 million to $25.0 million in
capital improvements, tenant improvements and leasing costs in 2020, in addition to the lease and contractual commitments included in our contractual obligations
table above. The amount we ultimately spend will depend on leasing activity during 2020.
The following table sets forth our historical actual capital expenditures, and tenant improvements and leasing costs for deals commenced, excluding tenant-
funded tenant improvements, for renewed and re-tenanted space within our stabilized portfolio for each of the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 on a

Capital expenditures per square foot decreased in 2019 as compared to 2018 due to a decrease in general building improvements during 2019. We currently
anticipate capital expenditures for 2020 to be more consistent with 2018 levels. Replacement tenant improvements and leasing commissions increased in 2019 as
compared to 2018 primarily due to the number of large leases commenced and related higher replacement costs in 2019. Renewal tenant improvements and leasing
commissions per square foot decreased in 2019 as compared to 2018 primarily due to a higher number of large leases renewed in the San Francisco Bay Area and
Greater Seattle regions in 2018. We currently anticipate tenant improvement and leasing commissions for 2020 to be higher than 2019 levels due to the leases
executed in 2019, including early renewals of 2020 lease expirations; however, ultimate costs incurred will depend upon market conditions in each of our submarkets
and actual leasing activity.

Factors That May Influence Future Sources of Capital and Liquidity of the Company and the Operating Partnership
We continue to evaluate sources of financing for our business activities, including borrowings under the unsecured revolving credit facility, issuance of public
and private equity securities, unsecured debt and fixed-rate secured mortgage financing, proceeds from the disposition of selective assets through our capital
recycling program, and the formation of strategic ventures. However, our ability to obtain new financing or refinance existing borrowings on favorable terms could
be impacted by various factors, including the state of the macro economy, the state of the credit and equity markets, significant tenant defaults, a decline in the
demand for office properties, a decrease in market rental rates or market values of real estate assets in our submarkets, and the amount of our future borrowings.
These events could result in the following:
• Decreases in our cash flows from operations, which could create further dependence on the unsecured revolving credit facility;
• An increase in the proportion of variable-rate debt, which could increase our sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations in the future; and
• A decrease in the value of our properties, which could have an adverse effect on the Operating Partnership’s ability to incur additional debt, refinance
existing debt at competitive rates, or comply with its existing debt obligations.
In addition to the factors noted above, the Operating Partnership’s credit ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies and may be
changed or withdrawn by a rating agency in the future if, in its judgment, circumstances warrant. In the event that the Operating Partnership’s credit ratings are
downgraded, we may incur higher borrowing costs and may experience difficulty in obtaining additional financing or refinancing existing indebtedness.
Debt Covenants
The unsecured revolving credit facility, unsecured term loan facility, unsecured term loan, unsecured senior notes and certain other secured debt arrangements
contain covenants and restrictions requiring us to meet certain financial ratios and reporting requirements. Key existing financial covenants and their covenant
levels include:
Unsecured Credit and Term Loan Facility and Private Placement Notes (as defined in the applicable Credit
Agreements):
Total debt to total asset value
Fixed charge coverage ratio
Unsecured debt ratio
Unencumbered asset pool debt service coverage

The Operating Partnership was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of December 31, 2019. Our current expectation is that the Operating Partnership
will continue to meet the requirements of its debt covenants in both the short and long term. However, in the event of an economic slowdown or continued volatility
in the credit markets, there is no certainty that the Operating Partnership will be able to continue to satisfy all the covenant requirements.

Our cash flows from operating activities depends on numerous factors including the occupancy level of our portfolio, the rental rates achieved on our leases,
the collectability of rent and recoveries from our tenants, the level of operating expenses, the impact of property acquisitions, completed development projects and
related financing activities, and other general and administrative costs. Our net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $23.5 million, or 5.7%, for the
year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended December 31, 2018 primarily due to free rent and beneficial occupancy periods for several tenants during
the year ended December 31, 2019 and a decrease in cash from net changes in other assets and liabilities related to the timing of expenditures.
Investing Activities
Our cash flows from investing activities is generally used to fund development and operating property acquisitions, expenditures for development projects, and
recurring and nonrecurring capital expenditures for our operating properties, net of proceeds received from dispositions of real estate assets. Our net cash used in
investing activities increased by $419.4 million, or 51.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to an
increase of $356.2 million in expenditures for development properties and a decrease of $239.9 million in net proceeds received from dispositions, partially offset by
$209.1 million of lower expenditures for acquisitions of development and operating properties.
Financing Activities
Our cash flows from financing activities is principally impacted by our capital raising activities, net of dividends and distributions paid to common and preferred
security holders. Our net cash provided by financing activities increased by $244.0 million or 48.5% for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year
ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to the settlement of our August 2018 forward equity sale agreements during the year ended December 31, 2019.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2019 and as of the date this report was filed, we did not have any off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, or obligations, including
contingent obligations.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: Funds From Operations
We calculate FFO in accordance with the 2018 Restated White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT. The White Paper defines FFO as
net income or loss calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, gains and losses from sales of depreciable real estate
and impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred
financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets) and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Our calculation of FFO includes
the amortization of deferred revenue related to tenant-funded tenant improvements and excludes the depreciation of the related tenant improvement assets. We also
add back net income attributable to noncontrolling common units of the Operating Partnership because we report FFO attributable to common stockholders and
common unitholders.
We believe that FFO is a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. The exclusion from FFO of gains and losses from the sale of operating real
estate assets allows investors and analysts to readily identify the operating results of the assets that form the core of our activity and assists in comparing those
operating results between periods. Also, because FFO is generally recognized as the industry standard for reporting the operations of REITs, it facilitates
comparisons of operating performance to other REITs. However, other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate FFO, and accordingly, our FFO may not
be comparable to all other REITs.
Implicit in historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP is the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably
over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of
operating results for real estate companies using historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization of real
estate assets, we believe that FFO along with the required GAAP presentations provides a more complete measurement of our performance relative to our
competitors and a more appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing and investing activities than the required GAAP presentations
alone would provide.
However, FFO should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our operating performance because it does not reflect either depreciation and amortization
costs or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, which are significant economic costs
and could materially impact our results from operations.
The following table presents our FFO for the years ended 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016 and 2015:
Net income available to common stockholders
Adjustments:
Net income attributable to noncontrolling common units of the Operating

The majority of the Company’s leases require tenants to pay for recoveries and escalation charges based upon the tenant’s proportionate share of, and/or
increases in, real estate taxes and certain operating costs, which reduce the Company’s exposure to increases in operating costs resulting from inflation.
New Accounting Pronouncements and Auditing Standards
For a discussion of new accounting pronouncements see Note 2 “Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial
statements included in this report.
On June 1, 2017, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) issued Auditing Standard 3101, The Auditor’s Report on an Audit of Financial
Statements When the Auditor Expresses an Unqualified Opinion (“AS 3101”). As a result of AS 3101, the most significant change to the auditor’s report on the
financial statements is a new requirement to describe critical audit matters arising from the audit of the current period’s financial statements in the auditor’s report.
The requirements related to critical audit matters in AS 3101 were effective for audits of fiscal years ending on or after June 30, 2019, for large accelerated filers; and
for fiscal years ending on or after December 15, 2020, for all other companies to which the requirements apply. Therefore, critical audit matters are included in the
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019, and
will be included in the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the Operating Partnership’s financial statements as of and for the year ending
December 31, 2020.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The primary market risk we face is interest rate risk. We seek to mitigate this risk by following established risk management policies and procedures. These
policies include maintaining prudent amounts of debt, including a greater amount of fixed-rate debt as compared to variable-rate debt in our portfolio, and may
include the periodic use of derivative instruments. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we did not have any interest-rate sensitive derivative assets or liabilities.
Information about our changes in interest rate risk exposures from December 31, 2018 to December 31, 2019 is incorporated herein by reference from
“Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership.”
Interest Rate Risk
As of December 31, 2019, 11.0% of our total outstanding debt of $3.6 billion (before the effects of debt discounts and deferred financing costs) was subject to
variable interest rates. The remaining 89.0% bore interest at fixed rates. All of our interest rate sensitive financial instruments are held for purposes other than trading
purposes. In general, interest rate fluctuations applied to our variable-rate debt will impact our future earnings and cash flows. Conversely, interest rate fluctuations
applied to our fixed-rate debt will generally not impact our future earnings and cash flows, unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated and need to
be refinanced. However, interest rate fluctuations will impact the fair value of the fixed-rate debt instruments.
We generally determine the fair value of our secured debt, unsecured debt, and unsecured line of credit by performing discounted cash flow analyses using an
appropriate market discount rate. We calculate the market rate by obtaining period-end treasury rates for maturities that correspond to the maturities of our fixed-rate
debt and then adding an appropriate credit spread based on information obtained from third-party financial institutions. These credit spreads take into account
factors, including but not limited to, our credit profile, the tenure of the debt, amortization period, whether the debt is secured or unsecured, and the loan-to-value
ratio of the debt to the collateral, amongst other factors. These calculations are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate, credit
spreads and estimates of future cash flow. We calculate the market rate of our unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loan facility by obtaining the
period-end London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and then adding an appropriate credit spread based on our credit ratings, and the amended terms of our
unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loan facility agreement. We determine the fair value of each of our publicly traded unsecured senior notes
based on their quoted trading price at the end of the reporting period, if such prices are available. See Note 19 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” and Note
2 “Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies” in the consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information on the fair
value of our financial assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
At December 31, 2019, the total outstanding balance of our variable-rate debt was comprised of borrowings on our unsecured revolving facility of $245.0 million
and unsecured term loan facility of $150.0 million, which were indexed to LIBOR plus a spread of 1.00% (weighted average interest rate of 2.76%) and LIBOR plus a
spread of 1.10% (weighted average interest rate of 2.85%), respectively. As of December 31, 2018, the total outstanding balance of our variable-rate debt was
comprised of borrowings on our unsecured revolving credit facility of $45.0 million and unsecured term loan facility of $150.0 million, which were indexed to LIBOR
plus a spread of 1.00% (weighted average interest rate of 3.48%) and LIBOR plus a spread of 1.10% (weighted average interest rate of 3.49%), respectively.
Assuming no changes in the outstanding balance of our existing variable-rate debt as of December 31, 2019, a 100 basis point increase in the LIBOR rate would have
increased our projected annual interest expense, before the effect of capitalization, by approximately $4.0 million.
The total carrying value of our fixed-rate debt was approximately $3.2 billion and $2.7 billion as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The total estimated
fair value of our fixed-rate debt was approximately $3.4 billion and $2.7 billion as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. For sensitivity purposes, a 100 basis
point increase in the discount rate equates to a decrease in the total fair value of our fixed-rate debt of approximately $203.3 million, or 6.0%, as of December 31, 2019.
Comparatively, a 100 basis point increase in the discount rate equates to a decrease in the total fair value of our fixed-rate debt of approximately $165.3 million, or
6.1%, as of December 31, 2018.
93
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. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) has proposed that the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) is the rate
that represents best practice as the alternative to LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to LIBOR. ARRC has proposed
a paced market transition plan to SOFR from LIBOR and organizations are currently working on industry wide and company specific transition plans as it relates to
derivatives and cash markets exposed to LIBOR. As our variable-rate debt is indexed to LIBOR, we are monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Kilroy Realty Corporation
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure
that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized, and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures,
management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the
desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2019, the
end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded, as of that time, the
disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes that occurred during the fourth quarter of the most recent year covered by this report in the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation referenced above that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected
by our board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain
to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable
assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures
are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection
of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is
supported by written policies and procedures and by an appropriate segregation of responsibilities and duties. The Company has used the criteria set forth in the
Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission to assess our internal control
over financial reporting. Based upon this assessment, management concluded that internal control over financial reporting operated effectively as of December 31,
2019.
Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the Company’s financial statements and has issued a report
on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Kilroy Realty Corporation
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Kilroy Realty Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2019, based on
criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019, based on criteria
established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial
statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019, of the Company and our report dated February 13, 2020, expressed an unqualified opinion on those
financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal
control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are
required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal
control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial
reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions
and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with
authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with
the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

To the Partners of
Kilroy Realty, L.P.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Basis for Opinion
The Operating Partnership’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness

and the schedules listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 13, 2020 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements
based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with
the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to
assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such
procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be
communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially
challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken
as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or
disclosures to which it relates.
Rental income, deferred revenue and acquisition-related intangible liabilities - Timing of Development Property Revenue Recognition and Ownership of
Tenant Improvements - Refer to Notes 2 and 10 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company evaluates tenant improvements on a lease-by-lease basis to determine who is the owner of such assets for accounting purposes. When management
concludes that the Company is the owner of the tenant improvements, the Company records the cost to construct the tenant improvements as capital assets, and
commences rental revenue recognition when the tenant takes possession of or controls the finished space, which is typically when the improvements being recorded
as the Company’s asset are substantially complete. When management concludes that the Company is not the owner and the tenant is the owner of certain tenant
improvements for accounting purposes, the Company records their contribution towards those tenant-owned improvements as a lease incentive, which is amortized
as a reduction to rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease, and rental revenue recognition begins when
F - 2
the tenant takes possession of or controls the leased space. The determination of whether the Company or tenant is the owner of tenant improvements for
accounting purposes is subject to significant judgment, and the commencement of rental revenue recognition depends on the Company’s conclusion as to when the
tenant takes possession of or controls the leased space. Control is typically transferred when the Company has completed all of its obligations under the lease
agreement in order for the leased space to be used by the tenant as intended. The Company’s determination of whether its obligations have been met and control
has been transferred to the tenant can be complex for large development properties.
Given the nature of construction work on large development properties, auditing management’s estimates regarding the commencement of rental revenue
recognition, including the determination of the owner of the tenant improvements and when control of the leased space transfers to the tenant, involves especially
subjective judgment. Construction for large development properties can include certain tenant improvements that are landlord-owned and others that are tenant-
owned improvements, typically dependent upon the judgment of whether the tenant improvements are unique to the tenant or reusable by other tenants at the end
of the lease term. Further, large development properties can deliver leased space in phases, resulting in various revenue commencement dates with judgment
surrounding when the tenant improvements that are landlord-owned, for a particular phase, are substantially complete.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to determining the ownership of tenant improvements and when control of the leased space transfers to the tenant for development
properties, thus the timing of the commencement of rental revenue recognition, included the following, among others:
• We tested the effectiveness of controls over revenue recognition, including those over the ownership of tenant improvements and the determination of
when the tenant took possession of or controlled the leased space.
• We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s conclusions regarding the Company’s ownership of tenant improvements by:
– Evaluating the Company’s and the tenant’s respective obligations as governed by the lease agreements for selected leases against criteria for
establishing ownership.
– Testing documentation supporting the nature of tenant improvements.
– Performing on-site inspections of selected development properties to evaluate the nature of tenant improvements, particularly the uniqueness of the
improvements.
• We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s conclusions regarding the possession of or control of the completed leased space and corresponding
commencement of rental revenue recognition for development properties by:
– Testing documentation from construction contractors, architects, and city building inspection sign offs on temporary certificates of occupancy.
– Performing on-site inspections of selected development properties near the planned rental revenue recognition commencement date to observe the
status of the site and tenant improvements to evaluate whether control of the leased space had been or was ready to be transferred to the tenant.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Partners of
Kilroy Realty, L.P.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kilroy Realty, L.P. and subsidiaries (the “Operating Partnership”) as of December 31, 2019 and
2018, the related consolidated statements of operations, capital, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, and the related
notes and the schedules listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Operating Partnership as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Operating Partnership’s
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 13, 2020, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Operating
Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Operating Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Operating
Partnership’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect
to the Operating Partnership in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to
assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such
procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Operating Partnership’s auditor since 2010.

KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1.
Organization and Ownership
Kilroy Realty Corporation (the “Company”) is a self-administered real estate investment trust (“REIT”) active in premier office and mixed-use submarkets along
the West Coast. We own, develop, acquire and manage real estate assets, consisting primarily of Class A properties in the coastal regions of Greater Los Angeles,
San Diego County, the San Francisco Bay Area and Greater Seattle, which we believe have strategic advantages and strong barriers to entry. Class A real estate
encompasses attractive and efficient buildings of high quality that are attractive to tenants, are well-designed and constructed with above-average material,
workmanship and finishes and are well-maintained and managed. We qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The
Company’s common stock is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker symbol “KRC.”
We own our interests in all of our real estate assets through Kilroy Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) and Kilroy Realty Finance Partnership, L.P. (the
“Finance Partnership”). We generally conduct substantially all of our operations through the Operating Partnership. Unless stated otherwise or the context indicates
otherwise, the terms “Kilroy Realty Corporation” or the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Kilroy Realty Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries and
the term “Operating Partnership” refers to Kilroy Realty, L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The descriptions of our business, employees, and properties apply to
both the Company and the Operating Partnership.
Our stabilized portfolio of operating properties was comprised of the following properties at December 31, 2019:

Our stabilized portfolio includes all of our properties with the exception of development and redevelopment properties currently committed for construction,
under construction, or in the tenant improvement phase, undeveloped land, recently completed residential properties not yet stabilized and real estate assets held for
sale. We define redevelopment properties as those properties for which we expect to spend significant development and construction costs on the existing or
acquired buildings pursuant to a formal plan, the intended result of which is a higher economic return on the property. We define properties in the tenant
improvement phase as office and retail properties that we are developing or redeveloping where the project has reached cold shell condition and is ready for tenant
improvements, which may require additional major base building construction before being placed in service. Projects in the tenant improvement phase are added to
our stabilized portfolio once the project reaches the earlier of 95% occupancy or one year from the date of the cessation of major base building construction
activities. Costs capitalized to construction in progress for development and redevelopment properties are transferred to land and improvements, buildings and
improvements, and deferred leasing costs on our consolidated balance sheets at the historical cost of the property as the projects are placed in service.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we added one completed development project to our stabilized office portfolio consisting of 394,340 square feet in
San Francisco, California. As of December 31, 2019, the following properties were excluded from our stabilized portfolio. We did not have any redevelopment
properties or properties held for sale at December 31, 2019.

As of December 31, 2019, all of our properties and development projects were owned and all of our business was conducted in the state of California with the
exception of eight office properties, one development project under construction and one recently acquired future development project located in the state of
Washington. All of our properties and development projects are 100% owned, excluding four office properties owned by three consolidated property partnerships
and two development projects held by consolidated variable interest entities established to facilitate potential transactions intended to qualify as like-kind
exchanges pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code (“Section 1031 Exchange”). Two of the three consolidated property partnerships, 100 First Street Member, LLC (“100
First LLC”) and 303 Second Street Member, LLC (“303 Second LLC”), each owned one office property in San Francisco, California through subsidiary REITs. As of
December 31, 2019, the Company owned a 56% common equity interest in both 100 First LLC and 303 Second LLC. The third consolidated property partnership,
Redwood City Partners, LLC (“Redwood LLC”) owned two office properties in Redwood City, California. As of December 31, 2019, the Company owned an
approximate 93% common equity interest in Redwood LLC. The remaining interests in all three property partnerships were owned by unrelated third parties.
As of December 31, 2019, the Company owned an approximate 98.1% common general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining
approximate 1.9% common limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership as of December 31, 2019 was owned by non-affiliated investors and certain of our
executive officers and directors. Both the general and limited common partnership interests in the Operating Partnership are denominated in common units. Generally,
the number of common units held by the Company is equivalent to the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, and the rights of all the
common units to quarterly distributions and payments in liquidation mirror those of the Company’s common stockholders. The common limited partners have certain
redemption rights as provided in the Operating Partnership’s Seventh Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended, the “Partnership
Agreement”.
Kilroy Realty Finance, Inc., which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is the sole general partner of the Finance Partnership and owns a 1.0%
common general partnership interest in the Finance Partnership. The Operating Partnership owns the remaining 99.0% common limited partnership interest. With the
exception of the Operating Partnership and our consolidated property partnerships, all of our subsidiaries are wholly-owned.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
At December 31, 2019 the consolidated financial statements of the Company included four VIEs in addition to the Operating Partnership: two of the consolidated
property partnerships, 100 First LLC, 303 Second LLC, and two entities established during the fourth quarter of 2019 to facilitate potential future Section 1031
Exchanges. At December 31, 2019, the Company and the Operating Partnership were determined to be the primary beneficiaries of these four VIEs since we had the
ability to control the activities that most significantly impact each of the VIEs’ economic performance. As of December 31, 2019, the four VIEs’ total assets, liabilities
and noncontrolling interests included on our consolidated balance sheet were approximately $676.7 million (of which $598.0 million related to real estate held for
investment), approximately $40.1 million and approximately $189.6 million, respectively. Revenues, income and net assets generated by 100 First LLC and 303 Second
LLC may only be used to settle their contractual obligations, which primarily consist of operating expenses, capital expenditures and required distributions.
At December 31, 2018, the consolidated financial statements of the Company included three VIEs in addition to the Operating Partnership: two of the
consolidated property partnerships, 100 First LLC and 303 Second LLC, and an entity established during the fourth quarter of 2018 to facilitate a Section 1031
Exchange. At December 31, 2018, the Company and the Operating Partnership were determined to be the primary beneficiaries of these three VIEs since we had the
ability to control the activities that most significantly impact each of the VIEs’ economic performance. At December 31, 2018, the three VIEs’ total assets, liabilities
and noncontrolling interests included on our consolidated balance sheet were approximately $615.4 million (of which $543.9 million related to real estate held for
investment on our consolidated balance sheet), approximately $45.1 million and approximately $186.4 million, respectively. In January 2019, the Section 1031
Exchange was successfully completed and the related VIE was terminated.
Our accounting policy is to consolidate entities in which we have a controlling financial interest and significant decision making control over the entity's
operations. In determining whether we have a controlling financial interest in a partially owned entity and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity,
we consider factors such as ownership interest, board representation, management representation, size of our investment (including loans), authority to control
decisions, and contractual and substantive participating rights of the members. In addition to evaluating control rights, we consolidate entities in which the other
members have no substantive kick-out rights to remove the Company as the managing member.
Entities in which the equity investors do not have sufficient equity at risk to finance their endeavors without additional financial support or the holders of the
equity investment at risk do not have a controlling financial interest are VIEs. We evaluate whether an entity is a VIE and whether we are the primary beneficiary. We
are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic
performance and the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
If the requirements for consolidation are not met, the Company would account for investments under the equity method of accounting if we have the ability to
exercise significant influence over the entity. Equity method investments would be initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for our share of net income
or loss and cash contributions and distributions each period. The Company did not have any equity method investments at December 31, 2019 or 2018.
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted January 1, 2019
Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic
842)” (“Topic 842”) and the related FASB ASU Nos. 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20 and 2019-01 which provide practical expedients, technical corrections and
improvements for certain aspects of ASU 2016-02, on a modified retrospective basis. Topic 842 establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in
accounting for leases and supersedes the existing leasing guidance. We evaluated each of the Company’s contracts to determine if the contract is or contains a
lease and concluded that Topic 842 is applicable to the Company as a lessor in its tenant lease agreements and as a lessee in its ground leases.

KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
Lessor Accounting
As a lessor, the Company’s leases with tenants for its real estate assets generally provide for the lease of space, as well as common area maintenance and
parking. Under Topic 842, the lease of space is considered a lease component while the common area maintenance billings and tenant parking are considered
nonlease components, which fall under revenue recognition guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with
Customers” (“Topic 606”). However, upon adopting the guidance in Topic 842, the Company determined that its tenant leases met the criteria to apply the practical
expedient provided by ASU 2018-11 to recognize the lease and non-lease components together as one single component. This conclusion was based on the
consideration that 1) the timing and pattern of transfer of the nonlease components and associated lease component are the same, and 2) the lease component, if
accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. As the lease of space is the predominant component of the Company’s leasing arrangements, we
accounted for all lease and non-lease components as one single component under Topic 842. As a result, the adoption of Topic 842 did not have any impact on the
Company’s timing or pattern of recognition of rental revenues as compared to previous guidance. Transient daily parking revenue is accounted for under the
guidance in Topic 606 and included in other property income in our consolidated statements of operations.
To reflect their recognition as one lease component, base rental revenues, additional rental revenues (which consist of amounts due from tenants for common
area maintenance, real estate taxes, and other recoverable costs) and other lease related property income related to leases that also meet the requirements of the
practical expedient provided by ASU 2018-11 have been combined in one line item subsequent to the adoption of Topic 842 for the year ended December 31, 2019 in
rental income on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. In addition, under Topic 842, lessor costs for certain services directly reimbursed by
tenants, which were previously presented on a net basis under previous guidance, are required to be presented on a gross basis in revenues and expenses. During
the year ended December 31, 2019, we incurred additional property expenses of $13.9 million for which we were reimbursed, that were not required to be grossed up
under the previous guidance. We presented this amount on a gross basis within rental income and property expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of
operations as a result of the adoption, which had no impact on net income.
Our rental income is mostly comprised of fixed contractual payments defined under the lease that, in most cases, escalate annually over the term of the lease at
fixed rates. Additionally, rental income includes variable payments for tenant reimbursements of property-related expenses and payments based on a percentage of
tenant’s sales. The table below sets forth the allocation of rental income between fixed and variable payments for the year ended December 31, 2019:

Upon the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, the method for recognizing revenue includes a binary assessment of whether or not substantially all of the
amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection. For leases that are deemed probable of collection, revenue is recorded on a straight-line
basis over the lease term. For leases that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as the lesser of (i) the amount which would be recognized on a
straight-line basis or (ii) cash that has been received from the tenant, with any tenant and deferred rent receivable balances charged as a direct write-off against
rental income in the period of the change in the collectability determination. Refer to our Significant Accounting Policies below for further discussion of our revenue
recognition and allowance for uncollectible tenant and deferred rent receivables policies.
Leasing Costs
Upon adoption of Topic 842, the Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients provided and did not reassess the following as of January 1,
2019: 1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; 2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and 3) initial direct costs for any
existing leases. Under Topic 842, initial direct costs for both lessees and lessors would include only those costs that are incremental to the arrangement and would
not have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained. As a result, beginning January 1, 2019, the
F - 16
KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
Company no longer capitalized internal leasing costs and third-party legal leasing costs and instead expensed these costs as incurred. These expenses are included
in leasing costs and general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations in 2019. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the
Company expensed approximately $11.4 million of indirect leasing costs which would have been capitalized prior to the adoption of Topic 842.
The election of the package of practical expedients described above permits us to continue to account for our leases that commenced before January 1, 2019
under the previously existing lease accounting guidance for the remainder of their lease terms, and to apply the new lease accounting guidance to leases
commencing or modified after January 1, 2019. On January 1, 2019, we recognized a $3.1 million cumulative-effect adjustment, primarily related to internal leasing
costs and legal leasing costs for tenant leases that had not commenced prior to that date, to increase distributions in excess of earnings for the Company and
partners’ capital for the Operating Partnership in connection with our adoption of Topic 842.
Lessee Accounting
The Company’s ground leases are the primary contracts in which we are the lessee. Upon adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, the Company had four
existing ground leases which were classified as operating leases. As discussed above, the Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients provided
by Topic 842 and therefore did not reassess the classification of these ground leases. Existing ground leases that commenced before the January 1, 2019 adoption
date continued to be accounted for as operating leases, and the new guidance did not have a material impact on our recognition of ground lease expense or our
results of operations. However, for periods beginning after January 1, 2019, we are now required to recognize a lease liability on our consolidated balance sheets
equal to the present value of the minimum future lease payments required in accordance with each ground lease, as well as a right of use asset equal to the lease
liability adjusted for above and below market intangibles and deferred leasing costs. To determine the discount rates used to calculate the present value of the lease
payments, we used a hypothetical curve derived from unsecured corporate borrowing rates over the lease terms. The weighted average discount rate for our four
existing ground leases was 5.15%. The adoption of Topic 842 resulted in the recognition of right of use ground lease assets totaling $82.9 million and ground lease
liabilities totaling $87.4 million on January 1, 2019. There was no material impact to our consolidated statements of operations or consolidated statements of cash
flows as a result of adoption of this new guidance. For further information related to our ground leases, refer to Note 18 “Commitments and Contingencies.”
For leases with a term of 12 months or less where we are the lessee, we made an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize right of
use lease assets and lease liabilities. We recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
Rental revenue for office and retail operating properties is our principal source of revenue. We recognize revenue from base rent, additional rent (which consists
of amounts due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes, and other recoverable costs), parking and other lease-related revenue once all of the
following criteria are met: (i) the agreement has been fully executed and delivered, (ii) services have been rendered, (iii) the amount is fixed or determinable and
(iv) payment has been received or the collectability of the amount due is probable. Lease termination fees are amortized over the remaining lease term, if applicable. If
there is no remaining lease term, they are recognized when received and realized. Minimum annual rental revenues are recognized in rental revenues on a straight-line
basis over the non-cancellable term of the related lease.
Base Rent
The timing of when we commence rental revenue recognition for office and retail properties depends largely on our conclusion as to whether the Company or
the tenant is the owner for accounting purposes of tenant improvements at the leased property. When we conclude that we are the owner of tenant improvements
for accounting purposes, we record the cost to construct the tenant improvements as an asset and commence rental revenue recognition when the tenant takes
possession of or controls the finished space, which is generally when tenant improvements being recorded
F - 17
KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
as our assets are substantially complete. In certain instances, when we conclude that the tenant is the owner of certain tenant improvements for accounting
purposes, rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant takes possession or controls the physical use of the leased space, which may occur in phases or for an
entire building or project. The determination of who owns the tenant improvements is made on a lease-by-lease basis and has a significant effect on the timing of
commencement of revenue recognition.
When we conclude that the Company is the owner of tenant improvements for accounting purposes, we record the cost to construct the tenant improvements,
including costs paid for or reimbursed by the tenants, as a capital asset. For these tenant-funded tenant improvements, we record the amount funded by or
reimbursed by tenants as deferred revenue, which is amortized and recognized as rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease.
When we conclude that the tenant is the owner of certain tenant improvements for accounting purposes, we record our contribution towards those tenant-
owned improvements as a lease incentive, which is included in deferred leasing costs and acquisition-related intangible assets, net on our consolidated balance
sheets and amortized as a reduction to rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease.
For residential properties, we commence revenue recognition upon lease commencement. Residential rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over
the term of the related lease, net of any concessions.
Additional Rent - Reimbursements from Tenants
Additional rent, consisting of amounts due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs, are recognized in rental
income in the period the recoverable costs are incurred. Prior to the adoption of Topic 842, such amounts were recognized in revenue as tenant reimbursements.
Additional rent where we pay the associated costs directly to third-party vendors and are reimbursed by our tenants are recognized and recorded on a gross basis,
with the corresponding expense recognized in property expenses or real estate taxes. Prior to the adoption of Topic 842, recoverable costs were generally recognized
and recorded on a gross basis when we were the primary obligor with respect to purchasing goods and services from third-party suppliers, had discretion in
selecting the supplier, and had credit risk.
Other Property Income
Other property income primarily includes amounts recorded in connection with transient daily parking, tenant bankruptcy settlement payments, broken deal
income and property damage settlement related payments. Other property income also includes miscellaneous income from tenants, restoration fees and fees for late
rental payments. Amounts recorded within other property income fall within the scope of Topic 606 and are recognized as revenue at the point in time when control
of the goods or services transfers to the customer and our performance obligation is satisfied.
Uncollectible Lease Receivables and Allowances for Tenant and Deferred Rent Receivables
We carry our current and deferred rent receivables net of allowances for amounts that may not be collected. Prior to the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1,
2019, the allowances were increased or decreased through provision for bad debts on our consolidated statements of operations. Upon the adoption of Topic 842 on
January 1, 2019, the allowances are increased or decreased through rental income, and our determination of the adequacy of the Company’s allowances for tenant
receivables includes a binary assessment of whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection. Such
assessment involves using a methodology that incorporates a specific identification analysis and an aging analysis and considers the current economic and
business environment. This determination requires significant judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made, including
the creditworthiness of specific tenants, specific industry trends and conditions, and general economic trends and conditions. For leases that are deemed probable
of collection, revenue continues to be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded
as the lesser of (i) the amount which would be recognized on a straight-line basis or (ii) cash that has been received from the tenant, with any tenant and deferred
rent receivable balances charged as a direct write-off against rental income in the period of the change in the collectability determination.
F - 18
KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
For tenant and deferred rent receivables associated with leases whose rents are deemed probable of collection under Topic 842, we may record an allowance
under other authoritative GAAP using a methodology that incorporates a specific identification analysis and an aging analysis and considers the current economic
and business environment. This determination requires significant judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made,
including the creditworthiness of specific tenants, specific industry trends and conditions, and general economic trends and conditions. Tenant and deferred rent
receivables deemed probable of collection are carried net of allowances for uncollectible accounts, with increases or decreases in the allowances recorded through
rental income on our consolidated statements of operations. Prior to the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, the allowances were increased or decreased
through provision for bad debts on our consolidated statements of operations.
Current tenant receivables consist primarily of amounts due for contractual lease payments and reimbursements of common area maintenance expenses,
property taxes, and other costs recoverable from tenants. With respect to the allowance for uncollectible tenant receivables, the specific identification methodology
analysis relies on factors such as the age and nature of the receivables, the payment history and financial condition of the tenant, our assessment of the tenant’s
ability to meet its lease obligations, and the status of negotiations of any disputes with the tenant.
Deferred rent receivables represent the amount by which the cumulative straight-line rental revenue recorded to date exceeds cash rents billed to date under the
lease agreement. With respect to the allowance for deferred rent receivables, given the longer-term nature of these receivables, the specific identification
methodology analysis evaluates each of our significant tenants and any tenants on our internal watchlist and relies on factors such as each tenant’s financial
condition and its ability to meet its lease obligations. We evaluate our reserve levels quarterly based on changes in the financial condition of tenants and our
assessment of the tenant’s ability to meet its lease obligations, overall economic conditions, and the current business environment.
Acquisitions
Acquisitions of operating properties and development and redevelopment opportunities generally do not meet the definition of a business and are accounted
for as asset acquisitions, as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar
identifiable assets. For these asset acquisitions, we record the acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on each asset’s and liability’s
relative fair value at the acquisition date of the total purchase price plus any capitalized acquisition costs. We record the acquired tangible and intangible assets and
assumed liabilities of acquisitions of operating properties and development and redevelopment opportunities that meet the accounting criteria to be accounted for as
business combinations at fair value at the acquisition date. Transaction costs associated with asset acquisitions are capitalized as part of the purchase price of the
acquisition.
The acquired assets and assumed liabilities for an acquisition generally include but are not limited to (i) land and improvements, buildings and improvements,
undeveloped land and construction in progress and (ii) identified tangible and intangible assets and liabilities associated with in-place leases, including tenant
improvements, leasing costs, value of above-market and below-market operating leases and ground leases, acquired in-place lease values and tenant relationships, if
any. Any debt assumed and equity (including common units of the Operating Partnership) issued in connection with a property acquisition is recorded at fair value
on the date of acquisition.
The fair value of land and improvements is derived from comparable sales of land and improvements within the same submarket and/or region. The fair value of
buildings and improvements, tenant improvements and leasing costs considers the value of the property as if it was vacant as well as current replacement costs and
other relevant market rate information.
The fair value of the above-market or below-market component of an acquired in-place operating lease is based upon the present value (calculated using a
market discount rate) of the difference between (i) the contractual rents to be paid pursuant to the lease over its remaining non-cancellable lease term and (ii) our
estimate of the rents that would be paid using fair market rental rates and rent escalations at the date of acquisition measured over the remaining non-cancellable
term of the lease for above-market operating leases and the initial non-cancellable term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options, if applicable, for
below-market operating leases. Our below-market operating leases generally do not include fixed rate or below-market renewal options. The amounts recorded for
above-market operating leases are included in deferred leasing costs and acquisition-related intangible assets, net on the
F - 19
KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
balance sheet and are amortized on a straight-line basis as a reduction of rental income over the remaining term of the applicable leases. The amounts recorded for
below-market operating leases are included in deferred revenue and acquisition-related intangible liabilities, net on the balance sheet and are amortized on a straight-
line basis as an increase to rental income over the remaining term of the applicable leases plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options, if applicable.
The amortization of a below-market ground lease obligation is recorded as an increase to ground lease expense in the consolidated statements of operations for the
periods presented. The amortization of an above-market ground lease obligation is recorded as a decrease to ground lease expense in the consolidated statements of
operations for the periods presented.
The fair value of acquired in-place leases is derived based on our assessment of lost revenue and costs incurred for the period required to lease the “assumed
vacant” property to the occupancy level when purchased. The amount recorded for acquired in-place leases is included in deferred leasing costs and acquisition-
related intangible assets, net on the balance sheet and amortized as an increase to depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining term of the applicable
leases. Fully amortized intangible assets are written off each quarter.
Operating Properties
Operating properties are generally carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Properties held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying value
or the fair value less estimated cost to sell. The cost of operating properties includes the purchase price or development costs of the properties. Costs incurred for
the renovation and betterment of the operating properties are capitalized to our investment in that property. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred.
When evaluating properties to be held and used for potential impairment, we first evaluate whether there are any indicators of impairment for any of our
properties. If any impairment indicators are present for a specific property, we then evaluate the regional market conditions that could reasonably affect the property.
If there are negative changes and trends in that regional market, we then perform an undiscounted cash flow analysis and compare the net carrying amount of the
property to the property’s estimated undiscounted future cash flow over the anticipated holding period. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flow is less than
the net carrying amount of the property, we perform an impairment loss calculation to determine if the fair value of the property is less than the net carrying value of
the property. Our impairment loss calculation compares the net carrying amount of the property to the property’s estimated fair value, which may be based on
estimated discounted future cash flow calculations or third-party valuations or appraisals. We would recognize an impairment loss if the property's net carrying
amount exceeds the property's estimated fair value. If we were to recognize an impairment loss, the estimated fair value of the property becomes its new cost basis.
For a depreciable long-lived asset, the new cost basis would be depreciated (amortized) over the remaining useful life of that asset.
Cost Capitalization
All costs clearly associated with the development, redevelopment and construction of a property are capitalized as project costs, including internal
compensation costs. In addition, the following costs are capitalized as project costs during periods in which activities necessary to prepare development and
redevelopment properties for their intended use are in progress: pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, interest, real estate taxes and
insurance.
•
•
For office and retail development and redevelopment properties that are pre-leased, we cease capitalization when revenue recognition commences, which is
upon substantial completion of tenant improvements deemed to be the Company’s asset for accounting purposes.
For office and retail development and redevelopment properties that are not pre-leased, we may not immediately build out the tenant improvements.
Therefore, we cease capitalization when revenue recognition commences upon substantial completion of the tenant improvements deemed to be the
Company's asset for accounting purposes, but in any event, no later than one year after the cessation of major construction activities. We also cease
capitalization on a development or redevelopment property when activities necessary to prepare the property for its intended use have been suspended.
F - 20
KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
•
For office and retail development or redevelopment properties with multiple tenants and staged leasing, we cease capitalization and begin depreciation on
the portion of the development or redevelopment property for which revenue recognition has commenced.
•
For residential development properties, we cease capitalization when the property is substantially complete and available for occupancy.
Once major base building construction activities have ceased and the development or redevelopment property or phases of the development or redevelopment
project is placed in service, which may occur in phases or for an entire building or project, the costs capitalized to construction in progress are transferred to land
and improvements, buildings and improvements, and deferred leasing costs on our consolidated balance sheets as the historical cost of the property.
Depreciation and Amortization of Buildings and Improvements
The costs of buildings and improvements and tenant improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method of accounting over the estimated useful lives
set forth in the table below. Depreciation expense for buildings and improvements for the three years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 was $211.9 million,
$198.6 million, and $190.5 million, respectively.

A real estate asset is classified as held for sale when certain criteria are met, including but not limited to the availability of the asset for immediate sale, the
existence of an active program to locate a buyer and the probable sale or transfer of the asset within one year. If such criteria are met, we present the applicable
assets and liabilities related to the real estate asset, if material, separately on the balance sheet as held for sale and we would cease to record depreciation and
amortization expense. Real estate assets held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying value or their estimated fair value less the estimated costs to sell. As
of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we did not have any properties classified as held for sale.
Property disposals representing a strategic shift that have (or will have) a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, such as a major line
of business, a major geographical area or a major equity investment, are required to be presented as discontinued operations. If we were to determine that a property
disposition represents a strategic shift, the revenues, expenses and net gain (loss) on dispositions of the property would be recorded in discontinued operations for
all periods presented through the date of the applicable disposition. The operations of the properties sold during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017
are presented in continuing operations as they did not represent a strategic shift in the Company’s operations and financial results.
The net gains (losses) on dispositions of non-depreciable real estate property, including land, are reported in the consolidated statements of operations as gains
(losses) on sale of land within continuing operations in the period the land is sold. The net gains (losses) on dispositions of depreciable real estate property are
reported in the consolidated statements of operations as gains on sales of depreciable operating properties within continuing operations in the period the land is
sold.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists of cash proceeds from dispositions that are temporarily held at qualified intermediaries for purposes of facilitating potential
Section 1031 Exchanges and cash held in escrow related to acquisition and

disposition holdbacks. Restricted cash also includes cash held as collateral to provide credit enhancement for the Operating Partnership’s mortgage debt, including
cash reserves for capital expenditures, tenant improvements and property taxes. As of December 31, 2019, we did not have any restricted cash held at qualified
intermediaries for the purpose of facilitating Section 1031 Exchanges. As of December 31, 2018, we had $113.1 million of restricted cash held at qualified
intermediaries for the purpose of facilitating Section 1031 Exchanges. In January 2019, the Section 1031 Exchange was completed and the cash proceeds were
released from the qualified intermediary.
Marketable Securities / Deferred Compensation Plan
Marketable securities reported in our consolidated balance sheets represent the assets held in connection with the Kilroy Realty Corporation 2007 Deferred
Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”) (see Note 16 “Employee Benefit Plans” for additional information). The Deferred Compensation Plan assets
are held in a limited rabbi trust and invested in various mutual and money market funds. As a result, the marketable securities are treated as trading securities for
financial reporting purposes and are adjusted to fair value at the end of each accounting period, with the corresponding gains and losses recorded in interest income
and other net investment gains (losses).
At the time eligible management employees (“Participants”) defer compensation or earn mandatory Company contributions, or if we were to make a discretionary
contribution, we record compensation cost and a corresponding deferred compensation plan liability, which is included in accounts payable, accrued expenses, and
other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. This liability is adjusted to fair value at the end of each accounting period based on the performance of the
benchmark funds selected by each Participant, and the impact of adjusting the liability to fair value is recorded as an increase or decrease to compensation cost. The
impact of adjusting the deferred compensation plan liability to fair value and the changes in the value of the marketable securities held in connection with the
Deferred Compensation Plan generally offset and therefore do not significantly impact net income.
Deferred Leasing Costs
Costs incurred in connection with successful property leasing are capitalized as deferred leasing costs and classified as investing activities in the statement of
cash flows. Under Topic 842, initial direct costs include only those costs that are incremental to the arrangement and would not have been incurred if the lease had
not been obtained. As a result, subsequent to the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, deferred leasing costs consist of leasing commissions paid to external
third party brokers and lease incentives, and the Company no longer capitalizes internal leasing costs and third-party legal leasing costs. Prior to the adoption of
Topic 842, deferred leasing costs consisted primarily of leasing commissions, lease incentives, legal costs and certain internal payroll costs. Deferred leasing costs
are amortized using the straight-line method of accounting over the lives of the leases which generally range from one to 20 years. We reevaluate the remaining
useful lives of leasing costs as the creditworthiness of our tenants and economic and market conditions change. If we determine that the estimated remaining life of a
lease has changed, we adjust the amortization period accordingly. Fully amortized deferred leasing costs are written off each quarter.
Deferred Financing Costs
Financing costs related to the origination or assumption of long-term debt are deferred and generally amortized using the straight-line method of accounting,
which approximates the effective interest method, over the contractual terms of the applicable financings. Fully amortized deferred financing costs are written off
when the corresponding financing is repaid.
Debt Discounts and Premiums
Original issuance debt discounts and discounts/premiums related to recording debt acquired in connection with operating property acquisitions at fair value are
generally amortized and accreted on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method. Discounts are recorded as additional interest expense
from date of issuance or acquisition through the contractual maturity date of the related debt. Premiums are recorded as a reduction to interest expense from the date
of issuance or acquisition through the contractual maturity date of the related debt.

Noncontrolling Interests - Common Units of the Operating Partnership in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements
Common units of the Operating Partnership within noncontrolling interests in the Company’s consolidated financial statements represent the common limited
partnership interests in the Operating Partnership not held by the Company (“noncontrolling common units”). Noncontrolling common units are presented in the
equity section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and are reported at their proportionate share of the net assets of the Operating Partnership.
Noncontrolling interests with redemption provisions that permit the issuer to settle in either cash or shares of common stock must be further evaluated to determine
whether equity or temporary equity classification on the balance sheet is appropriate. Since the common units contain such a provision, we evaluated the
accounting guidance and determined that the common units qualify for equity presentation in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Net income
attributable to noncontrolling common units is allocated based on their relative ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership during the reported period. The
noncontrolling interest ownership percentage is determined by dividing the number of noncontrolling common units by the total number of common units
outstanding. The issuance or redemption of additional shares of common stock or common units results in changes to the noncontrolling interest percentage as well
as the total net assets of the Company. As a result, all equity transactions result in an allocation between equity and the noncontrolling interest in the Company’s
consolidated balance sheets and statements of equity to account for the changes in the noncontrolling interest ownership percentage as well as the change in total
net assets of the Company.
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Property Partnerships
Noncontrolling interests in consolidated property partnerships represent the equity interests held by unrelated third parties in our three consolidated property
partnerships (see Note 11 “Noncontrolling Interests on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements” and see Note 12 “Noncontrolling Interests on the
Operating Partnership’s Consolidated Financial Statements”). Noncontrolling interests in consolidated property partnerships are not redeemable and are presented
as permanent equity in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. We account for the noncontrolling interests in consolidated property partnerships using the
hypothetical liquidation at book value (“HLBV”) method to attribute the earnings or losses of the consolidated property partnerships between the controlling and
noncontrolling interests. Under the HLBV method, the amounts reported as noncontrolling interests in consolidated property partnerships in the consolidated
balance sheets represent the amounts the noncontrolling interests would hypothetically receive at each balance sheet reporting date under the liquidation
provisions of the governing agreements assuming the net assets of the consolidated property partnerships were liquidated at recorded amounts and distributed
between the controlling and noncontrolling interests in accordance with the governing documents. The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in
consolidated property partnerships in the consolidated statements of operations is associated with the increase or decrease in the noncontrolling interest holders’
contractual claims on the respective entities’ balance sheets assuming a hypothetical liquidation at the end of that reporting period when compared with their claims
on the respective entities’ balance sheets assuming a hypothetical liquidation at the beginning of that reporting period, after removing any contributions or
distributions.
Common Partnership Interests on the Operating Partnership’s Consolidated Balance Sheets
The common units held by the Company and the noncontrolling common units held by the common limited partners are both presented in the permanent equity
section of the Operating Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets in partners’ capital. The redemption rights of the noncontrolling common units permit us to settle
the redemption obligation in either cash or shares of the Company’s common stock at our option (see Note 11 “Noncontrolling Interests on the Company’s
Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information).
Noncontrolling Interests on the Operating Partnership’s Consolidated Financial Statements
Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements include the noncontrolling interest in property partnerships (see
Note 12 “Noncontrolling Interests on the Operating Partnership’s Consolidated Financial Statements”) and the Company’s 1.0% general partnership interest in the
Finance Partnership. The 1.0% general partnership interest in the Finance Partnership noncontrolling interest is presented in the permanent equity section of the
Operating Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets given that these interests are not convertible or redeemable into any other ownership interest of the Company
or the Operating Partnership.

Equity Offerings
Underwriting commissions and offering costs incurred in connection with common equity offerings and our at-the-market stock offering program (see Note 13
“Stockholders’ Equity of the Company”) are reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. Issuance costs incurred in connection with preferred equity
offerings are reflected as a reduction of the carrying value of the preferred equity.
Sales of our common stock under forward equity sale agreements (such as those under the forward equity offering executed in August 2018 and those under the
2018 At-The-Market Program, as discussed in Note 13 “Stockholders’ Equity of the Company”) meet the derivatives and hedging guidance scope exception to be
accounted for as equity instruments based on the following assessment: (i) none of the agreements’ exercise contingencies were based on observable markets or
indices besides those related to the market for our own stock price and operations; and (ii) none of the settlement provisions precluded the agreements from being
indexed to our own stock.
The net proceeds from any equity offering of the Company are generally contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for a number of common units
equivalent to the number of shares of common stock issued and are reflected in the Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements as an increase in
partners’ capital.
Share-based Incentive Compensation Accounting
Compensation cost for all share-based awards, including options, requires measurement at estimated fair value on the grant date. Compensation cost is
recognized on a straight-line basis over the service vesting period, which represents the requisite service period. The grant date fair value of market measure-based
share-based compensation plans are calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model. The grant date fair value of stock option grants is calculated using the
Black-Scholes valuation model. Equity awards settled in cash are valued at the fair value of our common stock on the period end date through the settlement date.
Equity awards settled in cash are remeasured at each reporting period and are recognized as a liability in the consolidated balance sheet during the vesting period
until settlement. Forfeitures of all share-based awards are recognized when they occur.
For share-based awards in which the performance period precedes the grant date, we recognize compensation cost over the requisite service period, which
includes both the performance and service vesting periods, using the accelerated attribution expense method. The requisite service period begins on the date the
Executive Compensation Committee authorizes the award and adopts any relevant performance measures.
For share-based awards with performance-based measures, the total estimated compensation cost is based on our most recent estimate of the probable
achievement of the pre-established specific corporate performance measures. These estimates are based on actual results and our latest internal forecasts for each
performance measure. For share-based awards with market measures, the total estimated compensation cost is based on the fair value of the award at the grant date.
For share-based awards with performance-based measures and market measures, the total estimated compensation cost is based on the fair value per share at the
grant date multiplied by our most recent estimate of the number of shares to be earned based on actual results and the probable achievement of the pre-established
corporate performance measures based on our latest internal forecasts.
In accordance with the provisions of our share-based incentive compensation plan, we accept the return of shares of Company common stock, at the current
quoted market price, from employees to satisfy minimum statutory tax-withholding requirements related to shares that vested during the period.
For share-based awards granted by the Company, the Operating Partnership issues a number of common units equal to the number of shares of common stock
ultimately granted by the Company in respect of such awards.
Basic and Diluted Net Income Available to Common Stockholders per Share
Basic net income available to common stockholders per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders, after preferred
distributions and the allocation of income to participating securities, by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted
net income available to
F - 24
KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
common stockholders per share is computed by dividing net income available for common stockholders, after preferred distributions and the allocation of income to
participating securities, by the sum of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period plus the assumed exercise of all dilutive
securities. The impact of the outstanding common units is considered in the calculation of diluted net income available to common stockholders per share. The
common units are not reflected in the diluted net income available to common stockholders per share calculation because the exchange of common units into
common stock is on a one for one basis, and the common units are allocated net income on a per share basis equal to the common stock (see Note 21 “Net Income
Available to Common Stockholders Per Share of the Company”). Accordingly, any exchange would not have any effect on diluted net income (loss) available to
common stockholders per share.
Nonvested share-based payment awards (including nonvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”), vested market-measure RSUs and vested dividend equivalents
issued to holders of RSUs) containing nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are accounted for as participating securities and included in the
computation of basic and diluted net income available to common stockholders per share pursuant to the two-class method. The dilutive effect of shares issuable
under executed forward equity sale agreements and stock options are reflected in the weighted average diluted outstanding shares calculation by application of the
treasury stock method. The dilutive effect of the outstanding nonvested shares of common stock (“nonvested shares”) and RSUs that have not yet been granted
but are contingently issuable under the share-based compensation programs is reflected in the weighted average diluted shares calculation by application of the
treasury stock method at the beginning of the quarterly period in which all necessary conditions have been satisfied.
Basic and Diluted Net Income Available to Common Unitholders per Unit
Basic net income available to common unitholders per unit is computed by dividing net income available to common unitholders, after preferred distributions
and the allocation of income to participating securities, by the weighted-average number of vested common units outstanding for the period. Diluted net income
available to common unitholders per unit is computed by dividing net income available to common unitholders, after preferred distributions and the allocation of
income to participating securities, by the sum of the weighted-average number of common units outstanding for the period plus the assumed exercise of all dilutive
securities.
The dilutive effect of stock options, outstanding nonvested shares, RSUs, awards containing nonforfeitable rights to dividend equivalents and shares issuable
under executed forward equity sale agreements are reflected in diluted net income available to common unitholders per unit in the same manner as noted above for
net income available to common stockholders per share.
Fair Value Measurements
The fair values of our financial assets and liabilities are disclosed in Note 19, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” to our consolidated financial
statements. The only financial assets recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in our consolidated financial statements are our marketable securities. We elected not
to apply the fair value option for any of our eligible financial instruments or other items.
We determine the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities utilizing a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to a fair value
measurement are considered to be observable or unobservable in a marketplace. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while
unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The following is the fair value
hierarchy:
•
•
Level 1 – quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
Level 2 – quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-
derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
•
Level 3 – fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
F - 25
KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
We determine the fair value for the marketable securities using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Our other financial instruments, which are
only disclosed at fair value, are comprised of secured debt, unsecured senior notes, unsecured line of credit and unsecured term loan facility.
We generally determine the fair value of our secured debt, unsecured debt, and unsecured line of credit by performing discounted cash flow analyses using an
appropriate market discount rate. We calculate the market rate by obtaining period-end treasury rates for maturities that correspond to the maturities of our fixed-rate
debt and then adding an appropriate credit spread based on information obtained from third-party financial institutions. These credit spreads take into account
factors, including but not limited to, our credit profile, the tenure of the debt, amortization period, whether the debt is secured or unsecured, and the loan-to-value
ratio of the debt to the collateral. These calculations are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate, credit spreads and estimates of
future cash flow. We calculate the market rate of our unsecured line of credit, unsecured term loan facility, and unsecured term loan by obtaining the period-end
London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and then adding an appropriate credit spread based on our credit ratings, and the amended terms of our unsecured line of
credit, unsecured term loan facility, and unsecured term loan agreement. We determine the fair value of each of our publicly traded unsecured senior notes based on
their quoted trading price at the end of the reporting period, if such prices are available.
Carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.
Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. To qualify as a REIT, we must distribute annually at least 90% of our
adjusted taxable income, as defined in the Code, to our stockholders and satisfy certain other organizational and operating requirements. We generally will not be
subject to federal income taxes if we distribute 100% of our taxable income for each year to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will
be subject to federal income taxes (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and we may not be able to
qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and
property and to federal income taxes and excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income. We believe that we have met all of the REIT distribution and technical
requirements for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, and we were not subject to any federal income taxes (see Note 25 “Tax Treatment of
Distributions” for additional information). We intend to continue to adhere to these requirements and maintain the Company’s REIT status. Accordingly, no
provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.
In addition, any taxable income from our taxable REIT subsidiaries, which were formed in 2002, 2018 and 2019, are subject to federal, state, and local income
taxes. For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 the taxable REIT subsidiaries had de minimis taxable income.
Uncertain Tax Positions
We include favorable tax positions in the calculation of tax liabilities if it is more likely than not that our adopted tax position will prevail if challenged by tax
authorities.
We evaluated the potential impact of identified uncertain tax positions for all tax years still subject to audit under state and federal income tax law and concluded
that we did not have any unrecognized tax benefits or any additional tax liabilities as of December 31, 2019 or 2018. As of December 31, 2019, the years still subject to
audit are 2015 through 2019 under the California state income tax law and 2016 through 2019 under the federal income tax law.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us 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
reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

December 31, 2019 and 2018, we had cash accounts in excess of FDIC insured limits.
Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective at December 31, 2019
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted January 1, 2020
ASU No. 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)”
On June 16, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”) to amend the accounting for credit losses for certain financial instruments. Under the new
guidance, an entity recognizes its estimate of expected credit losses as an allowance, which the FASB believes will result in more timely recognition of such losses.
In November 2018, the FASB released ASU No. 2018-19 “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses.” This ASU clarifies that
receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of Subtopic 326-20 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” Instead, impairment of receivables
arising from operating leases should be accounted for under Subtopic 842-30 “Leases – Lessor.” ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods
within those fiscal years. The adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements or notes to the consolidated financial statements.
ASU No. 2018-13 “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)”
On August 28, 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13 (“ASU 2018-13”) to amend the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The amendments in
ASU 2018-13 include new, modified and eliminated disclosure requirements and are the result of a broader disclosure project called FASB Concepts Statement,
Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting - Chapter 8: Notes to Financial Statements, which the Board finalized on August 28, 2018. The Board used the
guidance in the Concepts Statement to improve the effectiveness of ASC 820’s disclosure requirements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for any eliminated or modified disclosures. The adoption did not
have a material impact on the disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
ASU No. 2018-15 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)”
On August 29, 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15 (“ASU 2018-15”) to amend a customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud
computing arrangement that is a service contract. ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is
a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that
include an internal-use software license). ASU 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal
years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. ASU 2018-15 can be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation
costs incurred after the date of adoption. The adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements or notes to the consolidated financial
statements.

KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
In this Note 8, the “Company” refers solely to Kilroy Realty Corporation and not to any of our subsidiaries. The Company itself does not hold any
indebtedness. All of our secured and unsecured debt is held directly by the Operating Partnership.
The Company generally guarantees all the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt obligations including the unsecured revolving credit facility, the $150.0
million unsecured term loan facility and all of the unsecured senior notes. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Operating Partnership had $3.3 billion and $2.6 billion,
respectively, outstanding in total, including unamortized discounts and deferred financing costs, under these unsecured debt obligations.
In addition, although the remaining $0.3 billion of the Operating Partnership’s debt as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, is secured and non-recourse to the
Company, the Company provides limited customary secured debt guarantees for items such as voluntary bankruptcy, fraud, misapplication of payments and
environmental liabilities.
Debt Covenants and Restrictions
One of the covenants contained within the unsecured revolving credit facility and the unsecured term loan facility as discussed further below in Note 9
prohibits the Company from paying dividends during an event of default in excess of an amount which results in distributions to us in an amount sufficient to permit
us to pay dividends to our stockholders that we reasonably believe are necessary to (a) maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal and state income tax
purposes and (b) avoid the payment of federal or state income or excise tax.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
Unsecured Senior Notes - Registered Offerings
In September 2019, the Operating Partnership issued $500.0 million of aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes in a registered public offering. The
outstanding balance of the unsecured senior notes is included in unsecured debt, net of an initial issuance discount of $0.6 million, on our consolidated balance
sheets. The unsecured senior notes, which are scheduled to mature on February 15, 2030, require semi-annual interest payments each February and August based
on a stated annual interest rate of 3.050%. The Operating Partnership may redeem the notes at any time prior to February 15, 2030, either in whole or in part, subject
to the payment of an early redemption premium prior to a par call option period commencing three months prior to maturity.
In November 2018, the Operating Partnership issued $400.0 million of aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes in a registered public offering. The
outstanding balance of the unsecured senior notes is included in unsecured debt, net of initial issuance discount of $1.5 million, on our consolidated balance sheets.
The unsecured senior notes, which are scheduled to mature on December 15, 2028, require semi-annual interest payments each June and December based on a stated
annual interest rate of 4.750%. The Operating Partnership may redeem the notes at any time prior to December 15, 2028, either in whole or in part, subject to the
payment of an early redemption premium subject to a par call option.
In December 2018, we used a portion of the net proceeds from the issuance of our $400.0 million, 4.750% unsecured senior notes to early redeem, at our option,
the $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 6.625% unsecured senior notes that were scheduled to mature on June 1, 2020. In connection with
our early redemption, we incurred a $12.6 million loss on early extinguishment of debt comprised of an $11.8 million premium paid to the note holders at the
redemption date and a $0.8 million write-off of the unamortized discount and unamortized deferred financing costs.
Unsecured Senior Notes - Private Placement
In May 2018, the Operating Partnership entered into a note purchase agreement in a private placement (the “2018 Note Purchase Agreement”) in connection
with the issuance and sale of $50.0 million principal amount of the Operating Partnership’s 4.30% Senior Notes, Series A, due July 18, 2026 (the “Series A Notes due
2026”), and $200.0 million principal amount of the Operating Partnership’s 4.35% Senior Notes, Series B, due October 18, 2026 (the “Series B Notes due 2026” and,
together with the Series A Notes, the “Series A and B Notes due 2026”), as shown in the table above. The Company drew the full amount of the Series A Notes due
2026 on July 18, 2018. On October 22, 2018, the Company drew the full amount of the Series B Notes due 2026. The Series A and B Notes due 2026 mature on their
respective due dates, unless earlier redeemed or prepaid pursuant to the terms of the 2018 Note Purchase Agreement. Interest on the Series A and B Notes due 2026
is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 18 and October 18 of each year beginning April 18, 2019. As of December 31, 2019, there was $50.0 million and $200.0
million issued and outstanding aggregate principal amount of Series A and Series B Notes due 2026, respectively.
The Operating Partnership may, at its option and upon notice to the purchasers of the Series A and B Notes due 2026, prepay at any time all, or from time to time
any part of the principal amounts then outstanding (in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Series A and B Notes due 2026 then
outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment), at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, plus the make-whole amount determined for the prepayment date with
respect to such principal amount as set forth in the 2018 Note Purchase Agreement.
In connection with the issuance of the Series A and B Notes due 2026, the Company entered into an agreement whereby it will guarantee the payment by the
Operating Partnership of all amounts due with respect to the Series A and B Notes due 2026 and the performance by the Operating Partnership of its obligations
under the 2018 Note Purchase Agreement.

(3) Our facility fee is paid on a quarterly basis and is calculated based on the total borrowing capacity. In addition to the facility fee, we incurred debt origination and legal costs. As of
December 31, 2019 and 2018, $3.4 million and $4.7 million of unamortized deferred financing costs, respectively, which are included in prepaid expenses and other assets, net on our
consolidated balance sheets, remained to be amortized through the maturity date of our unsecured revolving credit facility.
The Company intends to borrow under the unsecured revolving credit facility from time to time for general corporate purposes, to finance development and
redevelopment expenditures, to fund potential acquisitions and to potentially repay long-term debt.
During the first quarter of 2018, we borrowed the full $150.0 million borrowing capacity of our unsecured term loan facility. In connection with the funding of the
outstanding borrowings, we transferred $30.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the unsecured revolving credit facility to the balance of our unsecured term
loan facility. As a result, only $120.0 million of cash proceeds were received from the funding of the unsecured term loan facility. The following table summarizes the

(1) As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, $0.7 million and $0.9 million of unamortized deferred financing costs, respectively, remained to be amortized through the maturity date of our
July 2022
unsecured term loan facility.
(2) Our unsecured term loan facility interest rate was calculated based on the contractual rate of LIBOR plus 1.100% as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Debt Covenants and Restrictions
The unsecured revolving credit facility, the unsecured term loan facility, the unsecured senior notes, the Series A and B Notes due 2026 and Series A and B
Notes due 2027 and 2029 and certain other secured debt arrangements contain covenants and restrictions requiring us to meet certain financial ratios and reporting
requirements. Some of the more restrictive financial covenants include a maximum ratio of total debt to total asset value, a minimum fixed-charge coverage ratio, a
minimum unsecured debt ratio and a minimum unencumbered asset pool debt service coverage ratio. Noncompliance with one or more of the covenants and
restrictions could result in the full principal balance of the associated debt becoming immediately due and payable. We believe we were in compliance with all of our
debt covenants as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.

11. Noncontrolling Interests on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements
Common Units of the Operating Partnership
The Company owned a 98.1% and 98.0% common general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The
remaining 1.9% and 2.0% common limited partnership interest as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, was owned by non-affiliated investors and certain of
our executive officers and directors in the form of noncontrolling common units. There were 2,023,287 and 2,025,287 common units outstanding held by these
investors, executive officers and directors as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease in the common units from December 31, 2018 to December
31, 2019 was attributable to 2,000 common unit redemptions.
The noncontrolling common units may be redeemed by unitholders for cash. Except under certain circumstances, we, at our option, may satisfy the cash
redemption obligation with shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis. If satisfied in cash, the value for each noncontrolling common unit upon
redemption is the amount equal to the average of the closing quoted price per share of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share, as reported on the
NYSE for the ten trading days immediately preceding the applicable redemption date. The aggregate value upon redemption of the then-outstanding noncontrolling
common units was $167.7 million and $126.4 million as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This redemption value does not necessarily represent the amount
that would be distributed with respect to each noncontrolling common unit in the event of our termination or liquidation. In the event of our termination or
liquidation, it is expected in most cases that each common unit would be entitled to a liquidating distribution equal to the liquidating distribution payable in respect
of each share of the Company’s common stock.
Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Property Partnerships
In August 2016, the Operating Partnership entered into agreements with Norges Bank Real Estate Management (“NBREM”) whereby NBREM made
contributions, through two REIT subsidiaries, for a 44% common equity interest in two existing companies that owned the Company’s 100 First Street and 303
Second Street office properties located in San Francisco, California. The transactions did not meet the criteria to qualify as sales of real estate because the Company
continues to effectively control the properties and therefore continued to account for the 100 First Street and 303 Second Street office properties on a consolidated
basis in its financial statements. At formation, the Company accounted for the transactions as equity transactions and recognized noncontrolling interests in its
consolidated balance sheets.
The noncontrolling interests in 100 First LLC and 303 Second LLC as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 were $189.6 million and $186.4 million, respectively. The
remaining amount of noncontrolling interests in consolidated property partnerships represents the third party equity interest in Redwood LLC. This noncontrolling
interest was $5.8 million and $6.0 million as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Stockholders’ Equity of the Company
Common Stock
2018 Common Stock Forward Equity Sale Agreements
In August 2018, the Company entered into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers in connection with an
offering of 5,000,000 shares of common stock at an initial gross offering price of $360.5 million, or $72.10 per share, before underwriting discounts, commissions and
offering expenses. The forward purchasers borrowed and sold an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock in the offering. The Company did not receive any
proceeds from the sale of its shares of common stock by the forward purchasers at the time of the offering.
In July 2019, the Company physically settled these forward equity sale agreements. Upon settlement, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock for
net proceeds of $354.3 million and contributed the net proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for an equal number of units in the Operating Partnership.
At-The-Market Stock Offering Programs
Under our at-the-market stock offering programs, which commenced in December 2014 and June 2018, we may offer and sell shares of our common stock from
time to time in “at-the-market” offerings. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company completed its existing at-the-market stock offering program (the
“2014 At-The-Market Program”) under which we sold an aggregate of $300.0 million in gross sales of shares. In June 2018, the Company commenced a new at-the-
market stock offering program (the “2018 At-The-Market Program”) under which we may offer and sell shares of our common stock with an aggregate gross sales
price of up to $500.0 million. In connection with the 2018 At-The-Market Program, the Company may also, at its discretion, enter into forward equity sale agreements.
The use of forward equity sale agreements would allow the Company to lock in a share price on the sale of shares of our common stock at the time an agreement is
executed, but defer receiving the proceeds from the sale of shares until a later date.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we executed various 12-month forward equity sale agreements under the 2018 Program with financial institutions
acting as forward purchasers to sell 3,147,110 shares of common stock at a weighted average sales price of $80.08 per share before underwriting discounts,
commissions and offering expenses. The Company did not directly sell any shares of our common stock under the 2018 At-The-Market Program during the year and
did not receive any proceeds from the sale of its shares of common stock by the forward purchasers. The Company currently expects to fully physically settle the
forward equity sale agreements and receive cash proceeds upon one or more settlement dates, at the Company’s discretion, prior to the final settlement dates in the
first quarter of 2020 through the first quarter of 2021, at which time we expect to receive aggregate net cash proceeds at settlement equal to the number of shares
specified in such forward equity sale agreement multiplied by the relevant forward price per share. The weighted average forward sale price that we expect to receive
upon physical settlement of the agreements will be subject to adjustment for (i) a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily rate less a spread, (ii) the
forward purchasers’ stock borrowing costs and (iii) scheduled dividends during the term of the agreements. We have not settled any portion of these forward equity
sale agreements as of the date of this filing. Upon physical settlement, the Company will contribute the net proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common
stock to the Operating Partnership in exchange for an equal number of units in the Operating Partnership.

Since commencement of the 2018 At-The-Market Program through December 31, 2019, we have directly sold 447,466 shares of common stock, and an additional
3,147,110 shares have been sold by forward purchasers under forward equity sale agreements, which have not been settled as of the date of this filing. As of
December 31, 2019, approximately $214.2 million remains available to be sold under this program. Actual future sales will depend upon a variety of factors, including,
but not limited to, market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock and our capital needs. We have no obligation to sell the remaining shares
available for sale under this program.

Preferred Stock
On August 15, 2017, the Company redeemed all 4,000,000 shares of its 6.375% Series H Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series H Preferred Stock”). The
shares of Series H Preferred Stock were redeemed at a redemption price equal to their stated liquidation preference of $25.00 per share, representing $100.0 million in
aggregate. The redemption payment did not include any additional accrued dividends because the redemption date was also the dividend payment date.
On March 30, 2017 (the “Series G Redemption Date”), the Company redeemed all 4,000,000 shares of its 6.875% Series G Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock

Stockholder Approved Share-Based Incentive Compensation Plan
As of December 31, 2019, we maintained one share-based incentive compensation plan, the Kilroy Realty 2006 Incentive Award Plan, as amended (the “2006
Plan”). The Company has a currently effective registration statement registering 9.2 million shares of our common stock for possible issuance under our 2006
Incentive Award Plan. As of December 31, 2019, approximately 0.4 million shares were available for grant under the 2006 Plan. The calculation of shares available for
grant is presented after taking into account a reserve for a sufficient number of shares to cover the vesting and payment of 2006 Plan awards that were outstanding
on that date, including performance-based vesting awards at (i) levels actually achieved for the performance conditions (as defined below) for which the performance
period has been completed and (ii) at maximum levels for the other performance and market conditions (as defined below) for awards still in a performance period.
The Executive Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors may grant the following share-based awards to
eligible individuals, as provided under the 2006 Plan: incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock (nonvested shares), stock appreciation
rights, performance shares, performance stock units, dividend equivalents, stock payments, deferred stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), profit interest units,
performance bonus awards, performance-based awards and other incentive awards. For each award granted under our share-based incentive compensation
programs, the Operating Partnership simultaneously issues to the Company a number of common units equal to the number of shares of common stock ultimately
paid by the Company in respect of such awards.
2019, 2018 and 2017 Share-Based Compensation Grants
In February 2019, the Executive Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors awarded 288,378 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain
officers of the Company under the 2006 Plan, which included 143,396 RSUs (at the target level of performance) that are subject to market and/or performance-based
vesting requirements (the “2019 Performance-Based RSUs”) and 144,982 RSUs that are subject to time-based vesting requirements (the “2019 Time-Based RSUs”).
During the year ended December 31, 2019, 10,733 2019 Time-Based RSUs, 24,353 2019 Performance-Based RSUs and 98,844 time vest and performance RSUs that
were granted in prior years were forfeited.
In connection with entering into an amended employment agreement (the “Amended Employment Agreement”), on December 27, 2018, the Compensation
Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors awarded John Kilroy, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company
and the Operating Partnership 483,871 RSUs, providing an additional retention incentive during the term of the agreement and enticing Mr. Kilroy to delay his
retirement. Of these RSUs awarded, 266,130 RSUs (at the target level of performance) are subject to market-based vesting requirements and 217,741 RSUs are subject
to time-based vesting requirements. In addition to Mr. Kilroy’s award, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors awarded 161,290 RSUs to
certain members of management. Of these RSUs awarded, 80,647 RSUs (at the target level of performance) are subject to market-based vesting requirements (together
totaling 346,777 target RSUs with Mr. Kilroy’s award, the “December 2018 Market-Based RSUs”) and 80,643 RSUs are subject to time-based vesting requirements
(together totaling 298,384 RSUs with Mr. Kilroy’s award, the “December 2018 Time-Based RSUs”).
In January and February 2018, the Executive Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors awarded 282,038 RSUs to certain officers of the
Company under the 2006 Plan, which included 158,205 RSUs (at the target level of performance) that are subject to market and/or performance-based vesting
requirements (the “2018 Performance-Based RSUs”) and 123,833 RSUs that are subject to time-based vesting requirements (the “2018 Time-Based RSUs”).
Additionally, during 2018, 14,999 RSUs were granted to the board of directors and certain members of management subject to time vesting requirements.
In February 2017, the Executive Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors awarded 229,976 RSUs to certain officers of the Company under
the 2006 Plan, which included 130,956 RSUs (at the target level of performance) that are subject to time-based, market-measure based and performance-based vesting
requirements (the

“2017 Performance-Based RSUs”) and 99,020 RSUs that are subject to time-based vesting requirements (the “2017 Time-Based RSUs”). Additionally, during 2017,
43,081 RSUs were granted to the board of directors and certain members of management subject to time vesting requirements.
December 2018 Market-Based RSU Grant
Between 0% and 200% of the total 346,777 target number of December 2018 Market-Based RSUs will be eligible to vest based on the Company’s relative total
shareholder return (“TSR”) versus a comparative group of companies that consist of companies in the SNL US REIT Office Index over the performance period. An
initial number of RSUs (the “Initial Number of RSUs”) will be determined at the end of 2021 based on a three year performance period (2019 through 2021). Once the
Initial Number of RSUs is determined, 75% of the Initial Number of RSUs will be scheduled to vest on January 5, 2022. The remaining 25% of the Initial Number of
RSUs will be scheduled to vest on January 5, 2023, subject to adjustment based on the Company’s relative TSR for the entire four-year performance period (2019
through 2022). The December 2018 Market-Based RSUs are also subject to service vesting requirements through the scheduled vest dates.
Each December 2018 Market-Based RSU represents the right to receive one share of our common stock in the future, subject to, and as modified by, the
Company’s level of achievement of the applicable market conditions. The December 27, 2018 grant date fair value of the December 2018 Market-Based RSUs was
$23.8 million. The fair value was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model based on the assumptions in the table below. For the year ended December
31, 2018, we recorded compensation expense based upon the $68.66 grant date fair value per share. Compensation expense for the December 2018 Market-Based
RSUs is recognized using a graded vesting approach, where 75% of the fair value will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the three-year initial performance
period through the end of 2021, and the remaining 25% of the fair value will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the four-year final performance period through
the end of 2022. The following table summarizes the assumptions utilized in the Monte Carlo simulation pricing models:

The computation of expected volatility was based on a blend of the historical volatility of our shares of common stock over a period of twice the performance
period and implied volatility data based on the observed pricing of six month publicly-traded options on shares of our common stock. The risk-free interest rate was
based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury STRIP securities in effect at December 27, 2018.
2019, 2018 and 2017 Annual Performance-Based RSU Grants
The 2019 Performance-Based RSUs are scheduled to vest at the end of a three year period (consisting of calendar years 2019-2021). A target number of 2019
Performance-Based RSUs were awarded, and the final number of 2019 Performance-Based RSUs that vest (which may be more or less than the target number) will be
based upon (1) the achievement of pre-set FFO per share goals for the year ending December 31, 2019 that applies to 100% of the Performance-Based RSUs awarded
(the “2019 FFO Performance Condition”) and (2) a performance measure that applies to 50% of the award based upon a measure of the Company’s average debt to
EBITDA ratio for the three year performance period (the “2019 Debt to EBITDA Ratio Performance Condition”) and a market measure that applies to the other 50% of
the award based upon the relative ranking of the Company’s total stockholder return for the three year performance period compared to the total stockholder returns
of an established comparison group of companies over the same period (the “2019 Market Condition”). The 2019 Performance-Based RSUs are also subject to a three
year service vesting provision (the “service vesting condition”) and are scheduled to cliff vest on the date the final vesting percentage is determined following the
end of the three year performance period under the awards. The 2019 FFO Performance Condition was achieved at 175% of target for one participant and 150% of
target for all other participants. The number of 2019 Performance-Based RSUs ultimately earned could fluctuate from the target number of 2019 Performance-Based
RSUs granted based upon the levels of achievement for the 2019 Debt to EBITDA Ratio

Performance Condition, the 2019 Market Condition, and the extent to which the service vesting condition is satisfied. The estimate of the number of 2019
Performance-Based RSUs earned is evaluated quarterly during the performance period based on our estimate for each of the performance conditions measured
against the applicable goals. Compensation expense for the 2019 Performance-Based RSU grant is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service
period for each participant, which is generally the three year service period.
The 2018 Performance-Based RSUs are scheduled to vest at the end of a three year period (consisting of calendar years 2018-2020). A target number of 2018
Performance-Based RSUs were awarded, and the final number of 2018 Performance-Based RSUs that vest (which may be more or less than the target number) will be
based upon (1) the achievement of pre-set FFO per share goals for the year ending December 31, 2018 that applies to 100% of the Performance-Based RSUs awarded
(the “2018 FFO Performance Condition”) and (2) a performance measure that applies to 50% of the award based upon a measure of the Company’s average debt to
EBITDA ratio for the three year performance period (the “2018 Debt to EBITDA Ratio Performance Condition” and together with the 2018 FFO Performance
Condition, the “2018 Performance Conditions”) and a market measure that applies to the other 50% of the award based upon the relative ranking of the Company’s
TSR for the three year performance period compared to the TSR of an established comparison group of companies over the same period (the “2018 Market
Condition”). The 2018 Performance-Based RSUs are also subject to a three year service vesting provision and are scheduled to cliff vest on the date the final vesting
percentage is determined following the end of the three year performance period under the awards. The 2018 FFO Performance Condition was achieved at 175% of
target for one participant and 150% of target for all other participants. The number of 2018 Performance-Based RSUs ultimately earned could fluctuate from the
current estimated number of 2018 Performance-Based RSUs granted based upon the levels of achievement for the 2018 Debt to EBITDA Ratio Performance
Condition, the 2018 Market Condition and the extent to which the service vesting condition is satisfied.
The 2017 Performance-Based RSUs are scheduled to cliff vest at the end of a three year period (consisting of calendar years 2017-2019) based upon (1) the
achievement of pre-defined FFO per share goals for the year ended December 31, 2017 that applies to 100% of the 2017 Performance-Based RSUs awarded (the “2017
FFO Performance Condition”) and (2) also based upon either the average FAD per share growth that applies to 30% of the award or the Company’s average debt to
EBITDA ratio that applies to a separate 30% of the award (together, the “Other 2017 Performance Conditions” and together with the 2017 FFO Performance
Condition, the “2017 Performance Conditions”) or the relative TSR versus a comparative group of companies that consist of companies in the SNL US REIT Office
Index that applies to the remaining 40% of the award (the “2017 Market Condition”) for the three year period ending December 31, 2019. Based on the combined
results of the 2017 Performance Conditions and the 2017 Market Condition, the 2017 Performance-Based RSUs achieved a weighted average of approximately 131%
of their target level of performance.
As of December 31, 2019, the estimated number of RSUs earned for the 2019 and 2018 Performance-Based RSUs and the actual number of RSUs earned for the

The computation of expected volatility was based on a blend of the historical volatility of our shares of common stock over a period of twice the remaining
performance period as of the grant date and implied volatility data based on the observed pricing of six month publicly-traded options on shares of our common
stock. The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury STRIP securities in effect at February 1, 2019, February 14, 2018, and

Compensation expense for the Performance-Based RSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each participant, which is
generally the three-year service period. As of December 31, 2019, the number of 2019 Performance-Based RSUs estimated to be earned based on the Company’s
estimate of the performance conditions measured against the applicable goals was 229,095, and the compensation cost recorded to date for this program was based
on that estimate. For the portion of the 2019 Performance-Based RSUs subject to the 2019 Market Condition, for the year ended December 31, 2019, we recorded
compensation expense based upon the $72.57 fair value per share at February 1, 2019. Compensation expense will be variable for the portion of the 2019 Performance-
Based RSUs subject to the 2019 Debt to EBITDA Ratio Performance Condition, based upon the outcome of that condition. As of December 31, 2019, the number of
2018 Performance-Based RSUs estimated to be earned based on the Company’s estimate of the performance conditions measured against the applicable goals was
262,242, and the compensation cost recorded to date for this program was based on that estimate. For the portion of the 2018 Performance-Based RSUs subject to the
2018 Market Condition, for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we recorded compensation expense based upon the $70.08 fair value per share at February
14, 2018. Compensation expense will be variable for the portion of the 2018 Performance-Based RSUs subject to the 2018 Debt to EBITDA Performance Condition,
based upon the outcome of that condition. For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, we recorded compensation expense for the portion of the 2017
Performance-Based RSUs subject to the 2017 Market Condition based upon the $80.89 fair value per share at February 24, 2017 and for the portion of the 2017

The total compensation cost for all share-based compensation programs was $32.8 million, $35.9 million and $26.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2019,
2018 and 2017, respectively. Of the total share-based compensation costs, $5.8 million, $8.0 million and $7.3 million was capitalized as part of real estate assets and for
2018 and 2017, deferred leasing costs, for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As of December 31, 2019, there was approximately
$50.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested incentive awards granted under share-based compensation arrangements that is expected
to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. The remaining compensation cost related to these nonvested incentive awards had been recognized in
periods prior to December 31, 2019. The $50.5 million of unrecognized compensation costs does not reflect the future compensation cost related to share-based
awards that were granted subsequent to December 31, 2019.
Other Compensation
On December 27, 2018, the Executive Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board approved, and the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into
the Amended Employment Agreement with John Kilroy, which amends and supersedes the existing employment agreement dated January 1, 2012. Except as noted
below, the Amended Employment Agreement continues Mr. Kilroy’s employment on terms substantially similar to those of the existing employment agreement, with
a new term scheduled to continue through December 31, 2023. The Amended Employment Agreement includes a cash retirement benefit of $13.2 million, or $16.2
million for a retirement at or after attaining age 73, with at least twelve months’ advance notice or at or after the end of the term of the agreement. For the year ended
December 31, 2018, the Company recognized $12.1 million of compensation expense in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of
operations, representing the present value of the potential cash retirement benefit amount that was earned based on prior service. For the year ended December 31,
2019, the Company recognized $1.5 million of compensation expense in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of operations related to
the Amended Employment Agreement.

Employee Benefit Plans
401(k) Plan
We have a retirement savings plan designed to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code (the “401(k) Plan”). Our employees are eligible to participate in the 401
(k) Plan on the first day of the month after three months of service. The 401(k) Plan allows eligible employees (“401(k) Participants”) to defer up to 60% of their
eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis, subject to certain maximum amounts allowed by the Code. The 401(k) Plan provides for a matching contribution by the
Company in an amount equal to 50 cents of each one dollar of participant contributions up to a maximum of 10% of the 401(k) Participant’s annual salary. 401
(k) Participants vest immediately in the amounts contributed by us. For each of the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, we contributed $1.6 million,
$1.5 million and $1.3 million, respectively, to the 401(k) Plan.

Deferred Compensation Plan
In 2007, we adopted the Deferred Compensation Plan, under which directors and certain management employees may defer receipt of their compensation,
including up to 70% of their salaries and up to 100% of their director fees and bonuses, as applicable. In addition, employee participants will receive mandatory
Company contributions to their Deferred Compensation Plan accounts equal to 10% of their gross monthly salaries, without regard to whether such employees elect
to defer salary or bonus compensation under the Deferred Compensation Plan. Our Board may, but has no obligation to, approve additional discretionary
contributions by the Company to Participant accounts. We hold the Deferred Compensation Plan assets in a limited rabbi trust, which is subject to the claims of our
creditors in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency.
See Note 19 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” for further discussion of our Deferred Compensation Plan assets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Our liability of $27.0 million and $21.7 million under the Deferred Compensation Plan was fully funded as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Environmental Matters
We follow the policy of monitoring all of our properties, including acquisition, development, and existing stabilized portfolio properties, for the presence of
hazardous or toxic substances. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist, we are not currently aware of any
environmental liability with respect to our stabilized portfolio properties that would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations
and cash flow, or that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.
As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we had accrued environmental remediation liabilities of approximately $80.7 million and $83.2 million, respectively, recorded
on our consolidated balance sheets in connection with certain of our in-process and future development projects. The accrued environmental remediation liabilities
represent the remaining costs we estimate we will incur prior to and during the development process at various development acquisition sites. These estimates,
which we developed with the assistance of third party experts, consist primarily of the removal of contaminated soil, performing environmental closure activities,
constructing remedial systems, and other related costs since we are required to dispose of any existing contaminated soil, and sometimes perform other
environmental closure or remedial activities, when we develop new buildings at these sites.
We record estimated environmental remediation obligations for acquired properties at the acquisition date when we are aware of such costs and when such
costs are probable of being incurred and can be reasonably estimated. Estimated costs related to development environmental remediation liabilities are recorded as
an increase to the cost of the development project. Actual costs are recorded as a decrease to the liability when incurred. These accruals are adjusted as an increase
or decrease to the development project costs and as an increase or decrease to the accrued environmental remediation liability if we obtain further information or
circumstances change. The environmental remediation obligations recorded at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were not discounted to their present values since the
amount and timing of cash payments are not fixed. It is possible that we could incur additional environmental remediation costs in connection with these
development projects. However, potential additional environmental costs for these development projects cannot be reasonably estimated at this time and certain
changes in estimates could occur as the site conditions, final project timing, design elements, actual soil conditions and other aspects of the projects, which may
depend upon municipal and other approvals beyond the control of the Company, are determined.

KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
Other than the accrued environmental liabilities discussed above, we are not aware of any unasserted claims and assessments with respect to an environmental
liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of an additional loss contingency.
Litigation
We and our properties are subject to litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. To our knowledge, neither we nor any of our properties are presently
subject to any litigation or threat of litigation which, if determined unfavorably to us, would have a material adverse effect on our cash flow, financial condition, or
results of operations.
Insurance
We maintain commercial general liability, auto liability, employers’ liability, umbrella/excess liability, special form property, difference in conditions including
earthquake and flood, environmental, rental loss, and terrorism insurance covering all of our properties. Management believes the policy specifications and insured
limits are reasonable given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage, and industry practice. We do not carry insurance for generally uninsurable losses such
as loss from governmental action, nuclear hazard, and war and military action. Policies are subject to various terms, conditions, and exclusions and some policies may
involve large deductibles or co-payments.
19. Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
Assets and Liabilities Reported at Fair Value
The only assets we record at fair value on our consolidated financial statements are the marketable securities related to our Deferred Compensation Plan (see
Note 16 “Employee Benefit Plans” for additional information). The following table sets forth the fair value of our marketable securities as of December 31, 2019 and
2018:

We report the change in the fair value of the marketable securities at the end of each accounting period in interest income and other net investment (losses)
gains in the consolidated statements of operations. We also adjust the related Deferred Compensation Plan liability to fair value at the end of each accounting period
based on the performance of the benchmark funds selected by each participant, which results in a corresponding increase or decrease to compensation cost for the
period.

20. Other Significant Events
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we recorded a $2.9 million net increase in rental income on our consolidated statements of operations primarily due to
a $4.2 million increase in revenue related to the improved credit quality of a tenant for which we previously recorded a bad debt reserve during the year ended
December 31, 2018, partially offset by a $1.3 million decrease in revenue for other tenants with diminished credit quality during the year ended December 31, 2019.
During the year ended December 31, 2018, we recognized $5.7 million of provision for bad debts. The provision for bad debts was primarily due to a $7.0 million
provision for one tenant recognized during the second quarter of 2018, partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease in the provision for bad debts for one lease due to
the assignment of the lease to a credit tenant during the second quarter of 2018.

__________________
(1) On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Topic 842 on a modified retrospective basis and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to distributions in excess of earnings related to
the allowances for uncollectible tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables. As such, the ending balances of the allowances for uncollectible tenant receivables and deferred rent
receivables at December 31, 2018 do not equal the beginning balances on January 1, 2019.
(2) For the year ended December 31, 2019, amounts do not reflect leases deemed not probable of collection for which we reversed the associated revenue under Topic 842. In addition, for
the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, $0.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively, was charged to costs and expenses for a valuation allowance for a note receivable.

Section 2: EX-4.VI1 (EXHIBIT 4.VI1)
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
Exhibit 4.(vi)1
The following is a description of some of the material terms and provisions of the capital stock of Kilroy Realty Corporation registered under Section 12 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The following description is a summary only and does not purport to be complete and is
subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the Company’s charter and bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to the Annual
Report on Form 10-K to which this “Description of Capital Stock” is an exhibit, and the applicable provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law (the
“MGCL”). While we believe the following description covers the material terms and provisions of our common stock it may not include all of the information that is
important to you. We encourage you to read carefully the applicable provisions of the MGCL and our charter and bylaws for a more complete understanding of our
common stock. As used in this “Description of Capital Stock,” references to the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer solely to Kilroy Realty Corporation and not to
any of its subsidiaries, unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires.
Common Stock
General
The Company’s charter authorizes us to issue up to 150,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share. As of December 31, 2019, we had
106,016,287 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
Shares of our common stock:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
are entitled to one vote per share on all matters presented to stockholders generally for a vote, including the election of directors, with no right to
cumulative voting;
do not have any conversion rights;
do not have any exchange rights;
do not have any sinking fund rights;
do not have any redemption rights;
do not generally have any appraisal rights;
do not have any preemptive rights to subscribe for any of our securities; and
are subject to restrictions on ownership and transfer.
We may pay dividends and other distributions on shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to the preferential rights of any series or class of capital
stock that we may issue in the future with rights to dividends and other distributions senior to the Company’s common stock or creditors, in the case of our
liquidation, dissolution or winding-up. However, we may only pay dividends when the board of directors (in its sole discretion) authorizes and declares a dividend
out of legally available funds therefor. All dividends and other distributions will be paid to the holders of our common stock on pro rata basis.
The Company’s board of directors may:
•
in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify any unissued shares of the Company’s common stock into other classes or series of capital stock, whether now
or hereafter authorized;
establish the number of shares in each of these classes or series of capital stock;
establish the par value of the shares in each of these classes or series of capital stock;
establish any preference rights, conversion rights and other rights, including voting powers, of each of these classes or series of capital stock;
establish restrictions, such as limitations and restrictions on ownership, transfer, dividends or other distributions of each of these classes or series of
capital stock; and
establish qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption for each of these classes or series of capital stock.
•
•
•
•
•
In addition, the Company does not have a classified board of directors.
Preferred Stock
The Company’s charter authorizes us to issue up to 30,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, none of which are currently classified and
designated or are issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2019, 30,000,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock were available for classification, designation
and issuance.
We may classify, designate and issue authorized shares of preferred stock, in one or more classes or series, as authorized by the board of directors without the
prior consent of the Company’s stockholders. The board of directors may grant the holders of preferred stock of any class or series preferences, powers and
rights—voting or otherwise—senior to the rights of holders of shares of the Company’s common stock. The board of directors can authorize the issuance of
currently authorized shares of preferred stock with terms and conditions that could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control transaction that
might involve a premium price for holders of shares of the Company’s common stock or otherwise be in their best interest. All shares of preferred stock that and are
or become issued and outstanding are or will be fully paid and nonassessable. Before we may issue any shares of preferred stock of any class or series, the MGCL
and the Company’s charter require the board of directors to determine the following with respect to such class or series:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
the designation;
the terms;
preferences with respect to distributions and in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up;
conversion and other rights, if any;
voting powers;
restrictions;
limitations as to distributions;
qualifications; and
terms or conditions of redemption, if any.
Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer of the Company’s Capital Stock
Internal Revenue Code Requirements
To maintain the Company’s tax status as a REIT, five or fewer “individuals,” as that term is defined in the Code, which includes certain entities, may not own,
actually or constructively, more than 50% in value of the Company’s issued and outstanding capital stock at any time during the last half of a taxable year.
Constructive ownership provisions in the Code determine if any individual or entity constructively owns the Company’s capital stock for purposes of this
requirement. In addition, 100 or more persons must beneficially own the Company’s capital stock during at least 335 days of a taxable year or during a proportionate
part of a short taxable year. Also, rent from tenants in which we actually or constructively own a 10% or greater interest is not qualifying income for purposes of the
gross income tests of the Code. To help ensure we meet these tests, the Company’s charter restricts the acquisition and ownership of shares of the Company’s
common stock.
Transfer Restrictions in the Company’s Charter
Subject to exceptions specified therein, the Company’s charter provides that no holder may own, either actually or constructively under the applicable
constructive ownership provisions of the Code, more than 7.0%, by number of shares or value, whichever is more restrictive, of the outstanding shares of the
Company’s common stock.
In addition, because rent from tenants in which we actually or constructively own a 10% or greater interest is not qualifying rent for purposes of the gross
income tests under the Code, the Company’s charter provides that no holder may own, either actually or constructively by virtue of the constructive ownership
provisions of the Code,
which differ from the constructive ownership provisions used for purposes of the preceding sentence, more than 9.8%, by number of shares or value, whichever is
more restrictive, of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock.
We refer to the limits described in the two preceding paragraphs, together, as the “ownership limits.”
The constructive ownership provisions set forth in the Code are complex, and may cause shares of the Company’s common stock owned actually or
constructively by a group of related individuals and/or entities to be constructively owned by one individual or entity. As a result, the acquisition of shares of the
Company’s common stock in an amount that does not exceed the ownership limits, or the acquisition of an interest in an entity that actually or constructively owns
the Company’s common stock, could, nevertheless cause that individual or entity, or another individual or entity, to own constructively shares in excess of the
ownership limits and thus violate the ownership limits described above or otherwise permitted by the Company’s board of directors.
The Company’s charter permits the board of directors to waive the ownership limits with respect to a particular common stockholder if the board of directors,
among other things:
•
•
determines that such waiver will not cause any individual’s beneficial ownership of shares of the Company’s common stock to violate the 7.0% limitation
described above or that any exemption from such ownership limit will not cause the Company to fail to qualify as a REIT; and
determines that such stockholder does not and will not own, actually or constructively, an interest in a tenant of the Company (or a tenant of any entity
owned in whole or in part by the Company) that would cause the Company to own, actually or constructively, more than a 9.8% interest (as set forth in
Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code) in such tenant, subject to certain exceptions.
As a condition of this waiver, the Company’s board of directors may require opinions of counsel satisfactory to it and/or undertakings or representations from
the applicant with respect to preserving the Company’s REIT status. The board of directors has waived the ownership limit applicable to the Company’s common
stock for John B. Kilroy, Sr. and John Kilroy, members of their families and some of their affiliated entities, allowing them to own up to 19.6% of the Company’s
common stock. However, the board of directors conditioned this waiver upon the receipt of undertakings and representations from Messrs. Kilroy which it believed
were reasonably necessary to conclude that the waiver would not cause us to fail to qualify and maintain the Company’s status as a REIT.
In addition to the foregoing ownership limits, the Company’s charter provides that no holder may own, either actually or constructively under the applicable
attribution rules of the Code, any shares of the Company’s common stock if, as a result of this ownership:
• more than 50% in value of the Company’s outstanding common stock would be owned, either actually or constructively under the applicable constructive
ownership provisions of the Code, by five or fewer individuals, as defined in the Code; or
•
the Company would fail to qualify as a REIT.
If shares of common stock are transferred to any person in a manner which result in the Company’s capital stock being beneficially owned by less than 100
persons (determined without reference to any rules of attribution), the Company’s charter provides that the transfer shall be null and void in its entirety, and the
intended transferee will acquire no rights in such common stock.
Under the Company’s charter, any person who acquires or attempts or intends to acquire actual or constructive ownership of the Company’s shares of
common stock that violate any of the foregoing restrictions on transferability and ownership must give us notice immediately and provide us with any other
information that we may request to determine the effect of the transfer on the Company’s status as a REIT. The foregoing restrictions on transferability and
ownership will not apply if the Company’s board of directors determines that it is no longer in the Company’s best interest to attempt to qualify, or to continue to
qualify, as a REIT and such determination is approved by the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the shares of the Company’s capital stock
outstanding and entitled to vote thereon.
The terms of any class or series of preferred stock that we may issue in the future may include restrictions on ownership and transfer, and provide for
exceptions to or waivers of those restrictions, similar to those described under this caption “—Transfer Restrictions in the Company’s Charter,” as well as remedies
for violation of those restrictions similar to those described below under “—Effect of Violation of Ownership Limits and Transfer Restrictions.”
Effect of Violation of Ownership Limits and Transfer Restrictions
The Company’s charter provides that if any transfer or other event occurs that, if effective, would result in any person owning shares of Company’s common
stock in violation of the ownership limits or other restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock described above, the number of shares of common stock that
otherwise would cause such person to violate the ownership limits or other restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock (the “excess shares”) will be
transferred automatically to a trust, the beneficiary of which will be a qualified charitable organization selected by us or, if for any reason that transfer is not
automatically effective, then the transfer of such excess shares shall be void ab initio and the purported transferee will not have any rights in such excess shares.
The automatic transfer will be effective as of the close of business on the business day prior to the date of the violative transfer.
The trustee of the charitable trust must:
• within 20 days of receiving notice from us of the transfer of excess shares to the trust,
◦
◦
sell the excess shares to a person or entity who could own the shares without violating the ownership limits or as otherwise permitted by the board
of directors, and
distribute to the prohibited transferee or owner, as applicable, an amount equal to the lesser of the price paid by the prohibited transferee or owner
for the excess shares (or, if the event which resulted in the transfer to the charitable trust did not involve a purchase of the applicable stock for fair
value, the market price of such shares on the day of the event which resulted in such transfer to the charitable trust) or the sales proceeds (net any
commissions and other expenses of sale) received by the trust for the excess shares; and
•
distribute any proceeds in excess of the amount distributable to the prohibited transferee or owner, as applicable, to the charitable organization selected by
us as beneficiary of the trust.
Excess shares transferred to the charitable trust shall be deemed to have been offered for sale to us at a price per share equal to the lesser of the price paid by
the prohibited transferee or owner for the excess shares (or, if the event which resulted in the transfer to the charitable shares did not involve the purchase of the
applicable stock for fair value, the market price of such shares on the day of the event which resulted in the transfer of such shares to the charitable trust) and the
market price on the date we accept such offer. We will have the right to accept such offer until the charitable trust has sold the excess shares as described above.
The trustee shall be designated by us and be unaffiliated with us and any prohibited transferee or owner. Prior to a sale of any excess shares by the trust, the
trustee will receive, in trust for the beneficiary, all dividends and other distributions paid by us with respect to the excess shares, and may also exercise all voting
rights with respect to the excess shares.
The Company’s charter provides that, subject to Maryland law, effective as of the date that the shares have been transferred to the trust, the trustee shall
have the authority, at the trustee’s sole discretion:
•
to rescind as void any vote cast by a prohibited transferee or owner, as applicable, prior to our discovery that the Company’s shares have been transferred
to the trust; and
•
to recast the vote in accordance with the desires of the trustee acting for the benefit of the beneficiary of the trust.
However, if we have already taken irreversible corporate action, then the trustee may not rescind and recast the vote. Any dividend or other distribution paid
to the prohibited transferee or owner, prior to our discovery that the
shares had been automatically transferred to a trust as described above, must be repaid to the trustee upon demand for distribution to the beneficiary of the trust. If
the transfer to the trust as described above is not automatically effective, for any reason, to prevent violation of the applicable ownership limit or as otherwise
permitted by the board of directors, then the Company’s charter provides that the transfer of the excess shares will be void ab initio.
If the Company’s board of directors shall at any time determine in good faith that a person has acquired, intends to acquire or own, has attempted to acquire or
own, or may acquire or own the Company’s common stock in violation of the limits described above, the Company’s charter provides that the board of directors
shall take actions to refuse to give effect to or to prevent the ownership or acquisition, including, but not limited to:
•
•
•
authorizing us to repurchase stock;
refusing to give effect to the ownership or acquisition on our books; or
instituting proceedings to enjoin the ownership or acquisition.
All certificates representing shares of the Company’s capital stock bear a legend referring to the restrictions described above.
All persons who own at least a specified percentage of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s stock must file with us a completed questionnaire
annually containing information about their ownership of the shares, as set forth in the applicable Treasury regulations. Under current Treasury regulations, the
percentage is between 0.5% and 5.0%, depending on the number of record holders of the Company’s shares. In addition, each stockholder may be required to
disclose to us in writing information about the actual and constructive ownership of the Company’s shares as the board of directors deems necessary to comply
with the provisions of the Code applicable to a REIT or to comply with the requirements of any taxing authority or governmental agency.
These ownership limitations could discourage a takeover or other transaction in which holders of some, or a majority, of the Company’s shares of capital stock
might receive a premium for their shares over the then prevailing market price or which stockholders might believe to be otherwise in their best interest.
Certain Provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law and of the Company’s Charter and Bylaws
Under the Maryland General Corporation Law, or the MGCL, the Company’s stockholders are generally not liable for our debts or obligations. In the event of
the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, we will first pay all debts and other liabilities, including debts and liabilities
arising out of the Company’s status as general partner of the operating partnership, and, second, any preferential distributions on any issued and outstanding
shares of our preferred stock, if any. Each holder of the Company’s common stock then will share ratably in our remaining assets. All shares of the Company’s
common stock have equal distribution, liquidation and voting rights, and have no preference or exchange rights, subject to the transfer and ownership limits in the
Company’s charter or as permitted by the board of directors pursuant to executed agreements waiving these ownership limits with respect to specific stockholders.
Under the MGCL, we generally require approval by the Company’s stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to vote
before we can:
authorizing us to repurchase stock;
•
•
dissolve;
amend the Company’s charter (except for limited exceptions);
• merge;
•
•
sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets;
engage in a share exchange; or
•
engage in similar transactions outside the ordinary course of business.
Under the MGCL and our charter, the board of directors may, without stockholder approval, make certain minor amendments to the charter, and if the charter
allows, which ours does, classify or reclassify any unissued stock from time to time by setting or changing the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting
powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption of the stock.
With respect to the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, because the term “substantially all” of a company’s assets is not defined in the
MGCL, it is subject to Maryland common law and to judicial interpretation and review in the context of the unique facts and circumstances of any particular
transaction.
Although the MGCL allows the Company’s charter to establish a lesser percentage of affirmative votes by the Company’s stockholders for approval of those
actions, the Company’s charter does not include such a provision.
The Board of Directors
The Company’s charter provides that the number of the directors shall be six directors until that number is increased or decreased in accordance with the
bylaws of the Company; provided, however, such number cannot be less than the minimum number required by the MGCL, which is one. The Company’s bylaws
allow the board of directors to fix or change the number to not fewer than three and not more than 13 members. The number of directors is currently fixed at six. A
majority of the remaining board of directors may fill any vacancy, other than a vacancy caused by removal. A majority of the board of directors may fill a vacancy
resulting from an increase in the number of directors. The stockholders entitled to vote for the election of directors at an annual or special meeting of the Company’s
stockholders may fill a vacancy resulting from the removal of a director.
The Company’s charter and bylaws provide that a majority of the board of directors must be “independent directors.” An “independent director” is a
director who is not:
•
•
•
an employee, officer or affiliate of us or one of our subsidiaries or divisions;
a relative of a principal executive officer; or
an individual member of an organization acting as advisor, consultant or legal counsel, who receives compensation on a continuing basis from us in
addition to director’s fees.
No Cumulative Voting
Holders of shares of Company common stock have no right to cumulative voting for the election of directors. Consequently, at each annual meeting of the
Company’s stockholders, the holders of a majority of the shares of Company common stock entitled to vote will be able to elect all of the successors of the directors
at that meeting.
Removal of Directors
The Company’s charter provides that its stockholders may remove a director only for “cause” and only by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the
shares entitled to vote in the election of directors. The MGCL does not define the term “cause.” As a result, removal for “cause” is subject to Maryland common law
and to judicial interpretation and review in the context of the unique facts and circumstances of any particular situation.
Election of Directors
The Company’s bylaws provide a majority vote standard for uncontested elections of directors. As a result, except in the case of directors to be elected by
the holders of any class or series of the Company’s preferred stock, at each meeting of stockholders at which the election of directors is uncontested, a director
nominee will be elected to the board of directors only if the number of votes cast “FOR” the nominee exceeds the number of votes cast
“AGAINST” the nominee (with abstentions and broker non-votes not counted as a vote cast either “FOR” or “AGAINST” the director nominee). A plurality vote
standard applies in contested elections, in which case stockholders will not be permitted to vote “AGAINST” any director nominee but will only be permitted to vote
“FOR” or withhold their vote with respect to such nominee. An election will be considered to be contested if the Company’s secretary has received notice that a
stockholder or group of stockholders has nominated or proposes to nominate one or more persons for election as a director, such notice purports to be in
compliance with the advance notice requirements or the proxy access requirements set forth in the Company’s bylaws, and, at least 14 days prior to the date on
which notice of the meeting is first mailed to stockholders, the nomination has not been withdrawn and would thereby cause the number of director nominees to
exceed the number of directors to be elected at the meeting.
Under the MGCL, if an incumbent director is not re-elected at a meeting of stockholders at which he or she stands for re-election in an uncontested election,
then the incumbent director continues to serve in office as a holdover director until his or her successor is elected and qualifies. However, the Company’s bylaws
provide that if an incumbent director is not re-elected due to his or her failure to receive a majority of the votes cast in an uncontested election, the director will
promptly tender his or her resignation as a director, subject to acceptance by the board of directors, for consideration by the nominating and corporate governance
committee of the board of directors. The nominating and corporate governance committee of the board of directors will then make a recommendation to the board of
directors as to whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation or whether other action should be taken. The board of directors will publicly disclose within 90
days of certification of the stockholder vote its decision and rationale regarding whether to accept, reject or take other action with respect to the tendered
resignation. If a director’s tendered resignation is not accepted by the board of directors, such director would continue to serve until the next annual meeting of
stockholders and until his or her successor is elected and qualified or his or her earlier death, retirement, resignation or removal. If a director’s tendered resignation is
accepted, then the board of directors may, among other things, fill the resulting vacancy or decrease the size of the board of directors.
The Company is not Subject to the Maryland Business Combination Act
The Company has elected not to be subject to the “business combination” provisions of the MGCL (Sections 3-601 through 3-605) pursuant to the board of
directors’ adoption of certain resolutions related thereto. Such resolutions also provide that the board of directors cannot rescind such election and become subject
to these business combination provisions without the approval of holders of a majority of its shares entitled to vote.
In the event that the Company decides to be subject to the business combinations provision, “business combinations” between a Maryland corporation
and an interested stockholder or an affiliate of an interested stockholder are generally prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested
stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. A business combination includes a merger, consolidation or share exchange. A business combination may also
include an asset transfer or issuance or reclassification of equity securities. An interested stockholder is defined in the MGCL as:
•
•
any person (other than the corporation or any subsidiary) who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, ten percent or more of the voting power of the
corporation’s shares; or
an affiliate or associate of the corporation who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was the beneficial owner, directly or
indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then outstanding stock of the corporation.
A person is not an interested stockholder under the business combinations provisions of the MGCL if the board of directors approved in advance the
transaction by which such person would otherwise have become an interested stockholder.
At the conclusion of the five-year prohibition, any business combination between the Maryland corporation and an interested stockholder generally must
be recommended by the board of directors of the corporation and approved by the affirmative vote of at least:
•
•
80% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of outstanding shares of voting stock of the corporation; and
two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of voting stock of the corporation other than shares held by the interested stockholder with whom or
with whose affiliate the business combination is to be effected or held by an affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder.
These super-majority vote requirements do not apply if the corporation’s common stockholders receive a minimum price, as defined under the MGCL, for
their shares in the form of cash or other consideration in the same form as previously paid by the interested stockholder for its shares. None of these provisions of
the MGCL will apply, however, to business combinations that are approved or exempted by the board of directors of the corporation prior to the time that the
interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder.
As a result of the Company’s decision not to be subject to the business combinations statute, an interested stockholder would be able to effect a “business
combination” without complying with the requirements discussed above, which may make it easier for stockholders who become interested stockholders to
consummate a business combination involving the Company. However, the Company cannot assure you that any business combinations will be consummated or, if
consummated, will result in a purchase of shares of capital stock from its stockholders at a premium.
The Company is not Subject to the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act
The Company has elected in its bylaws not to be subject to the “control share acquisition” provisions of the MGCL (Sections 3-701 through 3-710). If it
wants to be subject to these provisions, its bylaws would need to be amended. Such amendments would require the approval of the holders of a majority of all votes
entitled to be cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock.
The MGCL provides that “control shares” of a company acquired in a “control share acquisition” have no voting rights except to the extent approved by a
vote of two-thirds of the votes entitled to vote, excluding shares owned by the acquiror or by officers or directors who are employees of the Company. “Control
shares” are voting shares of stock which, if aggregated with all other voting shares of stock previously acquired by the acquiror, or over which the acquiror is able
to directly or indirectly exercise voting power, except solely by revocable proxy, would entitle the acquiror to exercise voting power in electing directors within one of
the following ranges of voting power:
•
•
•
one-tenth or more but less than one-third;
one-third or more but less than a majority; or
a majority or more of all voting power.
“Control shares” do not include shares of stock the acquiring person is entitled to vote having obtained prior stockholder approval. Generally, “control
share acquisition” means the acquisition of control shares.
A person who has made or proposes to make a control share acquisition may compel the board of directors to call a special meeting of stockholders to
consider voting rights for the shares. The meeting must be held within 50 days of demand. If no request for a meeting is made, the Company may present the
question at any stockholders’ meeting.
If voting rights are not approved at the meeting or if the acquiring person does not deliver an acquiring person statement as required by the statute, then,
subject to conditions and limitations, the corporation may redeem any or all of the control shares, except those for which voting rights previously have been
approved, for fair value.
Fair value is determined without regard to the absence of voting rights for control shares, as of the date of the last control share acquisition or of any meeting of
stockholders at which the voting rights of control shares are considered and not approved. If voting rights for control shares are approved at a stockholders meeting
and the acquiror becomes entitled to vote a majority of the shares entitled to vote, all other stockholders may exercise appraisal rights. The fair value of the shares as
determined for purposes of these appraisal rights may not be less than the highest price per share paid in the control share acquisition. Limitations and restrictions
otherwise applicable to the exercise of dissenters’ rights do not apply in the context of a control share acquisition.
The control share acquisition statute does not apply to shares acquired in a merger, consolidation or share exchange if the company is a party to the
transaction, or to acquisitions approved or exempted by its charter or bylaws. Because the Company is not subject to these provisions, stockholders who acquire a
substantial block of Company common stock do not need approval of the other stockholders before exercising full voting rights with respect to their shares on all
matters. This may make it easier for any of these control share stockholders to effect a business combination with the Company. However, the Company cannot
assure you that any business combinations will be consummated or, if consummated, will result in a purchase of shares of Company common stock from any
stockholder at a premium.
Unsolicited Takeovers
Under certain provisions of the MGCL relating to unsolicited takeovers, a Maryland corporation with a class of equity securities registered under the
Exchange Act and at least three independent directors may elect to be subject, in whole or in part, to certain statutory provisions relating to unsolicited takeovers
which, among other things, would automatically classify the board of directors into three classes with staggered terms of three years each, require two-thirds of all
the votes entitled to be cast by the stockholders generally in the election of directors for the removal of a director, vest in its board of directors the exclusive right to
determine the number of directors and the exclusive right, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors, to fill vacancies on the board of directors,
even if the remaining directors do not constitute a quorum and require that a special meeting of stockholders be called at the request of the stockholders only if
requested by stockholders entitled to cast a majority of the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting. These statutory provisions also provide that any director elected
to fill a vacancy shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in which the vacancy occurred, rather than the next annual meeting of
directors as would otherwise be the case, and until his successor is elected and qualified.
An election to be subject to any or all of the foregoing statutory provisions may be made in the Company’s charter or bylaws, or by resolution of the board
of directors without the need for stockholder approval. Any such statutory provision to which the Company elects to be subject will apply even if other provisions
of the Company’s charter or bylaws provide to the contrary, unless the charter or a resolution adopted by the board of directors prohibits such election.
If the Company made an election to be subject to the statutory provisions described above, the board of directors would automatically be classified into
three classes with staggered terms of office of three years each, and would have the exclusive right to determine the number of directors and the exclusive right to fill
vacancies on the board of directors. Moreover, any director elected to fill a vacancy would hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in
which the vacancy occurred.
In such instance, the classification and staggered terms of office of the directors would make it more difficult for a third party to gain control of the board of
directors since at least two annual meetings of stockholders, instead of one, generally would be required to effect a change in the majority of the board of directors.
The Company has not elected to become subject to the foregoing statutory provisions relating to unsolicited takeovers. However, the Company could by
resolutions adopted by the board of directors and without stockholder approval, elect to become subject to some or all of these statutory provisions.
Amendment of the Company’s Charter and Bylaws
The Company’s charter may generally be amended only if the amendment is declared advisable by the board of directors and approved by our stockholders
by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the shares entitled to vote on the amendment. The Company’s bylaws generally may be amended by the affirmative
vote of a majority of the board of directors or of a majority of all votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of
the Company. However, the following bylaw provisions may be amended only by the approval of a majority of all votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the
issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company:
•
•
provisions opting out of the control share acquisition statute;
provisions requiring approval by the independent directors for selection of operators of our properties or of transactions involving John B. Kilroy, Sr. and
John Kilroy and their affiliates; and
•
provisions governing amendment of the Company’s bylaws.
Meetings of Stockholders
The Company’s bylaws provide for annual meetings of its stockholders to elect directors and to transact other business properly brought before the
meeting. In addition, a special meeting of stockholders may be called by:
•
•
•
•
the president;
the board of directors pursuant to a resolution approved by a majority of the entire board of directors;
the chairman of the board; and
the secretary of the Company following, his or her receipt of one or more written demands to call a special meeting of stockholders by holders of at least a
majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock entitled to vote by making a written request.
The MGCL provides that the Company’s stockholders also may act by unanimous written consent without a meeting with respect to any action that they
are required or permitted to take at a meeting. To do so, each stockholder entitled to vote on the matter must sign the consent setting forth the action.
Advance Notice of Director Nominations and New Business Proposals
The Company’s bylaws provide that with respect to an annual meeting of stockholders, nominations of persons for election to the board of directors and
the proposal of other business to be considered by stockholders at the meeting may be made only:
•
•
•
pursuant to the Company’s notice of the meeting;
by or at the direction of the board of directors; or
by a stockholder who is entitled to vote at the meeting and has complied with the advance notice procedures of the Company’s bylaws.
The Company’s bylaws also provide that with respect to special meetings of stockholders, only the business specified in the notice of meeting may be
brought before the meeting.
The advance notice provisions of the Company’s bylaws could have the effect of discouraging a takeover or other transaction in which holders of some, or
a majority, of the shares of common stock might receive a premium for their shares over the then prevailing market price or which holders of the Company’s common
stock believe is in their best interests.
Proxy Access
The Company’s bylaws permit a stockholder, or group of up to twenty stockholders, owning at least 3% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common
stock continuously for at least the prior three years to nominate a candidate for election to the board of directors and inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for
its annual meeting of stockholders; provided that the total number of all stockholder nominees included in the Company’s proxy materials shall not exceed 25% of
the number of directors then serving on the board of directors. The foregoing proxy access right is subject to additional eligibility, procedural and disclosure
requirements set forth in the Company’s bylaws.
Exclusive Forum for Certain Litigation
The Company’s bylaws provide that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Circuit Court for Baltimore City,
Maryland, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, Baltimore Division, shall be the sole and exclusive
forum for:
•
•
•
•
any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company;
any action asserting a claim of breach of any duty owed by any present or former director or officer or other employee or stockholder of the Company to the
Company or the Company’s stockholders or any standard of conduct applicable to the directors of the Company;
any action asserting a claim against the Company or any present or former director or officer or other employee of the Company arising pursuant to any
provision of the MGCL, the Company’s charter or bylaws (in each case, as the same may be amended from time to time); or
any action asserting a claim against the Company or any present or former director or officer or other employee of the Company governed by the internal
affairs doctrine.
Dissolution of the Company
Under the MGCL, the Company may be dissolved if a majority of the entire board of directors declares by resolution that dissolution is advisable and
submits a proposal for dissolution for consideration at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, and this proposal is approved, by the vote of the holders of
two-thirds of the shares of the Company’s capital stock entitled to vote on the dissolution.
Indemnification and Limitation of Liability of Directors and Officers
The Company’s charter and bylaws, and the partnership agreement, provide for indemnification of its officers and directors against liabilities to the fullest
extent permitted by the MGCL, as amended from time to time.
The MGCL permits the Company to indemnify its present and former directors and officers and other parties against judgments, penalties, fines,
settlements, and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in connection with any proceeding to which they may be made or threatened to be made a party to,
or witness in, by reason of their service in those or other capacities unless it is established that:
•
•
•
the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and was committed in bad faith or was the result of
active and deliberate dishonesty;
the director or officer actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services; or
in the case of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful.
If the proceeding is one by the Company or in its right, indemnification may not be made in respect of any proceeding in which the director or officer has
been found to be liable to the Company. In addition, the Company may not indemnify a director or officer in any proceeding charging improper personal benefit to
them if they were
found to be liable on the basis that personal benefit was received. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create a presumption
that the director or officer did not meet the requisite standard of conduct required for indemnification to be permitted. The termination of any proceeding by
conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or an entry of any order of probation prior to judgment, creates a rebuttable presumption that the
director or officer did not meet the requisite standard of conduct required for indemnification to be permitted.
In addition, the MGCL provides that, unless limited by its charter, a corporation shall indemnify any present or former director or officer who is made a party
to any proceeding by reason of service in that capacity against reasonable expenses incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceeding, in the
event that the director or officer is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of the proceeding. The Company’s charter contains no such limitation.
As permitted by the MGCL, the Company’s charter limits the liability of its directors and officers to the Company and its stockholders for money damages,
subject to specified restrictions. However, the liability of the Company’s directors and officers to it and its stockholders for money damages is not limited if:
•
•
it is proved that the director or officer actually received an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services; or
a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or officer is entered in a proceeding based on a finding that the director’s or officer’s action, or
failure to act, was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and was material to the cause of action adjudicated in the proceeding.
This provision does not limit the Company’s ability or its stockholders’ ability to obtain other relief, such as an injunction or rescission.
The partnership agreement provides that the Company, as general partner, and its officers and directors are indemnified to the same extent its officers and
directors are indemnified in its charter. The partnership agreement limits the Company’s liability and the liability of its officers and directors to the operating
partnership and its partners to the same extent that its charter limits the liability of its officers and directors to it and its stockholders. See “Description of Material
Provisions of the Partnership Agreement of Kilroy Realty, L.P.-Indemnification of the Company’s Officers and Directors.”
Insofar as the foregoing provisions permit indemnification of directors, officers or persons controlling the Company for liability arising under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Act, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, this indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
Anti-takeover Effect of Certain Provisions of the MGCL and of the Company’s Charter and Bylaws
If the resolution of the board of directors exempting the Company from the business combination provisions of the MGCL and the applicable provision in
its bylaws exempting it from the control share acquisition provisions of the MGCL are rescinded or revoked (which in each case would require stockholder approval)
or it elects to be subject to the unsolicited takeover provisions of the MGCL, then the business combination, control share acquisition and unsolicited takeover
provisions of the MGCL, the provisions of its charter on removal of directors, the advance notice provisions of its bylaws and certain other provisions of its charter
and bylaws and the MGCL could delay, deter or prevent a change of control of the Company or other transactions that might involve a premium price for holders of
its capital stock or otherwise be in their best interest.
Transfer Agent and Registrar for Shares of Capital Stock
Computershare Shareowner Services LLC is the transfer agent and registrar for shares of the Company’s common stock.

Section 3: EX-4.VI2 (EXHIBIT 4.VI2)
Exhibit 4.(vi)2
DESCRIPTION OF COMMON UNITS REPRESENTING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS OF KILROY REALTY, L.P.
The following is a summary of some of the terms and provisions of the common units representing limited partnership interests of Kilroy Realty, L.P.
(“common units”). The following description does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of the
Seventh Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the “partnership agreement”), a copy of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Annual Report
on Form 10-K to which this “Description of Common Units Representing Limited Partnership Interests Of Kilroy Realty, L.P.” is an exhibit. As used in this
“Description of Common Units Representing Limited Partnership Interests Of Kilroy Realty, L.P.,” references to the “operating partnership” refer to Kilroy Realty,
L.P., references to the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer solely to Kilroy Realty Corporation and not to any of its subsidiaries, unless otherwise expressly stated
or the context otherwise requires.
Common Limited Partnership Units
General
The partnership agreement provides that, subject to the distribution preferences of any preferred units that may be issued in the future, common units are
entitled to receive quarterly distributions of available cash on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective percentage interests. As of December 31, 2019,
2,023,287 issued and outstanding common units were held by the operating partnership’s common limited partners, which consisted of certain non-
affiliated investors and certain directors and officers of the Company.
In addition to the rights and provisions described in more detail below, the common units:
•
have limited voting rights;
•
•
•
•
•
do not have any conversion rights;
do not have any sinking fund rights;
do not generally have any appraisal rights;
do not have any preemptive rights to subscribe for any of the operating partnership's securities; and
are subject to restrictions on ownership and transfer.
The Company, as general partner of the operating partnership, does not have a classified board of directors.
Redemption/Exchange Rights
Common limited partners have the right to require the operating partnership to redeem part or all of their common units for cash based upon the fair market
value of an equivalent number of shares of Company common stock at the time of the redemption. Alternatively, the Company may elect to acquire those common
units tendered for redemption in exchange for shares of Company common stock. The Company’s acquisition will be on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment in
the event of stock splits, stock dividends, issuance of some rights, some extraordinary distributions and similar events. However, even if the Company elects not to
acquire tendered common units in exchange for shares of common stock, holders of common units that are corporations or limited liability companies may require
that the Company issue common stock in exchange for their common units, subject to applicable ownership limits or any other limit as provided in the Company’s
charter or as otherwise determined by the board of directors, as applicable. The Company presently anticipates that the Company will elect to issue shares of
common stock in exchange for common units in connection with each redemption request, rather than having the operating partnership redeem the common units for
cash. With each redemption or exchange, the Company increases its percentage ownership interest in the operating partnership. Common limited partners may
exercise this redemption right from time to time, in whole or in part, except when, as a consequence of shares of common stock being issued, any person’s actual or
constructive stock ownership would exceed the ownership limits, or any other limit as provided in the Company’s charter or as otherwise determined by the board of
directors.
Common Limited Partner Approval Rights
The partnership agreement provides that if the limited partners own at least 5% of the common units representing common partnership interests in the
operating partnership, including those common units held by the Company as general partner, the Company will not, on behalf of the operating partnership and
without the prior consent of the holders of more than 50% of the common units representing limited partnership interests in the operating partnership, dissolve the
operating partnership, unless the dissolution or sale is incident to a merger or a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets.
Common and Preferred Limited Partnership Interests
The operating partnership may issue both preferred limited partnership interests and common limited partnership interests. As of December 31, 2019, the
operating partnership did not have any preferred units issued and outstanding. In this discussion, we refer collectively to any preferred units the operating
partnership may issue in the future as “preferred units” and to the preferred units and the common units as the “units.”
Transferability of Partnership Interests
Generally, the Company may not voluntarily withdraw from or transfer or assign its interest in the operating partnership without the consent of the holders of
at least 60% of the common units including the Company’s interest. The limited partners may, without the consent of the general partner, transfer, assign, sell,
encumber or otherwise dispose of their units in the operating partnership to family members, affiliates (as defined under federal securities laws) and charitable
organizations and as collateral in connection with certain lending transactions, and, with the consent of the general partner, may also transfer, assign or sell their
units to accredited investors. In each case, the transferee must agree to assume the transferor’s obligations under the partnership agreement. This transfer is also
subject to the Company’s right of first refusal to purchase the limited partner’s units for our benefit.
In addition, without the Company’s consent, limited partners may not transfer their units:
•
•
to any person who lacks the legal capacity to own the units;
in violation of applicable law;
• where the transfer is for only a portion of the rights represented by the units, such as the partner’s capital account or right to distributions;
•
•
•
•
•
•
if we believe the transfer would cause the termination of the operating partnership or would cause it to no longer be classified as a partnership for federal or
state income tax purposes;
if the transfer would cause the operating partnership to become a party-in-interest within the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, or ERISA, or would cause its assets to constitute assets of an employee benefit plan under applicable regulations;
if the transfer would require registration under applicable federal or state securities laws;
if the transfer could cause the operating partnership to become a “publicly traded partnership” under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations;
if the transfer could cause the operating partnership to be regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or ERISA; or
if the transfer would adversely affect the Company’s ability to maintain its qualification as a REIT.
The Company may not engage in any “termination transaction” without the approval of at least 60% of the common units in the operating partnership,
including the Company’s general partnership interest in the operating partnership. Termination transactions consist of:
•
•
•
a merger;
a consolidation or other combination with or into another entity;
a sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets; or
•
a reclassification, recapitalization or change of the Company's outstanding equity interests.
In connection with a termination transaction, all common limited partners must either receive, or have the right to elect to receive, for each common unit an
amount of cash, securities or other property equal to the product of:
•
•
the number of shares of Company common stock into which each common unit is then exchangeable; and
the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property paid to the holder of one share of Company common stock in consideration for one share of
common stock pursuant to the termination transaction.
If, in connection with a termination transaction, a purchase, tender or exchange offer is made to holders of Company common stock, and the common
stockholders accept the purchase, tender or exchange offer, each holder of common units must either receive, or must have the right to elect to receive, the greatest
amount of cash, securities or other property which that holder would have received if immediately prior to the purchase, tender or exchange offer it had exercised its
right to redeem common units, received shares of Company common stock in exchange for its common units, and accepted the purchase, tender or exchange offer.
The Company also may merge or otherwise combine its assets with another entity with the approval of at least 60% of the common units if:
•
•
•
substantially all of the assets directly or indirectly owned by the surviving entity (other than partnership units held by the Company) are owned directly or
indirectly by the operating partnership or another limited partnership or limited liability company which is the surviving entity (any such surviving limited
partnership or limited liability company is called the “surviving partnership”) of a merger, consolidation or combination of assets with the operating
partnership;
the common limited partners own a percentage interest of the surviving partnership based on the relative fair market value of the net assets of the operating
partnership and the other net assets of the surviving partnership immediately prior to the consummation of this transaction;
the rights, preferences and privileges of the common limited partners in the surviving partnership are at least as favorable as those in effect immediately
prior to the consummation of the transaction and as those applicable to any other limited partners or non-managing members of the surviving partnership;
and
•
the common limited partners have the right to exchange their interests in the surviving partnership for either:
▪
▪
the consideration available to the common limited partners pursuant to the preceding paragraph; or
if the ultimate controlling person of the surviving partnership has publicly traded common equity securities, shares of those common equity
securities, at an exchange ratio based on the relative fair market value of those securities and the Company’s common stock.
The board of directors of the Company, in the Company’s capacity as general partner, will reasonably determine relative fair market values and rights,
preferences and privileges of the limited partners as of the time of the termination transaction. These values may not be less favorable to the limited partners than the
relative values reflected in the terms of the termination transaction.
The Company must use commercially reasonable efforts to structure termination transactions to avoid causing the common limited partners to recognize gain
for federal income tax purposes by virtue of the occurrence of or their participation in the termination transaction. In addition, the operating partnership must use
commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the common limited partners to minimize any taxes payable in connection with any repayment, refinancing,
replacement or restructuring of indebtedness, or any sale, exchange or other disposition of its assets.
Issuance of Additional Units Representing Partnership Interests
As sole general partner of the operating partnership, the Company has the ability to cause the operating partnership to issue additional units representing
general and limited partnership interests. These units may include units representing preferred limited partnership interests.
Capital Contributions by the Company to the Operating Partnership
The Company may borrow additional funds in excess of the funds available from borrowings or capital contributions from a financial institution or other lender
or through public or private debt offerings. The Company may then lend these funds to the operating partnership on the same terms and conditions that applied to
the Company. In some cases, the Company may instead contribute these funds as an additional capital contribution to the operating partnership and increase its
interest in the operating partnership and decrease the interests of the limited partners.
Tax Matters that Affect the Operating Partnership
The Company has the authority under the partnership agreement to make tax elections under the Code on the operating partnership’s behalf.
Allocations of Net Income and Net Losses to Partners
The net income of the operating partnership will generally be allocated:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
first, to the extent holders of units have been allocated net losses, net income shall be allocated to such holders to offset these losses, in an order of priority
which is the reverse of the priority of the allocation of these losses;
next, pro rata among holders of any preferred units ranking on a parity as to distributions in an amount equal to a specified return on the stated value of
such other series of preferred units as set forth in the terms of such preferred units, which are referred to as the “preferred returns”; and
the remaining net income, if any, will be allocated to the Company and to the common limited partners in accordance with their respective percentage
interests.
Net losses of the operating partnership will generally be allocated:
first, to the Company and the common limited partners in accordance with their respective percentage interests, but only to the extent the allocation does
not cause a partner to have a negative adjusted capital account (ignoring any limited partner capital contribution obligations);
next, pro rata among the holders of any preferred units that the operating partnership may issue in the future, but only to the extent that the allocation does
not cause a partner to have a negative adjusted capital account (ignoring any limited partner capital contribution obligations);
next, to partners pro rata in proportion to their positive adjusted capital accounts, until such capital accounts are reduced to zero; and
the remainder, if any, will be allocated to the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the partnership agreement generally provides that the operating partnership’s adjusted net income (as defined in the
partnership agreement) will first be allocated to the holders of any preferred units that the operating partnership may issue in the future to the extent of their
preferred returns, with the remaining items of net income or net loss allocated according to the provisions described above. The allocations described above are
subject to compliance with the provisions of Sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code and the associated Treasury regulations.
Operations and Management of the Operating Partnership
The operating partnership must be operated in a manner that will enable the Company to maintain its qualification as a REIT and avoid any federal income tax
liability. The partnership agreement provides that the Company will determine from time to time, but not less frequently than quarterly, the net operating cash
revenues of
the operating partnership, as well as net sales and refinancing proceeds, pro rata in accordance with the partners respective percentage interests, subject to the
distribution preferences with respect to any preferred units that the operating partnership may issue in the future. The partnership agreement further provides that
the operating partnership will assume and pay when due, or reimburse the Company for payment of, all expenses that the Company incurs relating to the ownership
and operation of, or for the benefit of, the operating partnership and all costs and expenses relating to the Company’s operations.
Term of the Partnership Agreement
The operating partnership will continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2095, or until sooner dissolved in accordance with the terms of the
partnership agreement.
