American Strategic Investment Co.

Note 1 —Organization

American Strategic Investment Co. (formerly known as New York City REIT, Inc.) (including, New York City Operating Partnership L.P., (the “OP”) and its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is an externally managed company that owns a portfolio of high-quality commercial real estate located within the five boroughs of New York City, primarily Manhattan. The Company’s real estate assets consist of office properties and certain real estate assets that accompany office properties, including retail spaces and amenities. From the third quarter of 2021 until the termination of its agreement with the Company in November 2023, the Company operated Innovate NYC, a co-working company that offered move-in ready office and meeting space on bespoke terms to clients, at one property. As of December 31, 2024, the Company ownedsix properties consisting of 1.0 million rentable square feet. The Company’s square footage and occupancy statistics included within are unaudited.

On December 30, 2022, the Company announced that it was changing its business strategy by expanding the scope of the assets and businesses we may own and operate. The Company may now seek to acquire assets such as hotels, expand our co-working office space business and seek to invest in and operate businesses such as hotel or parking lot management companies. By investing in other asset types, the Company may generate income that does not otherwise constitute income that qualifies for purposes of qualifying as a real estate investment trust for United States (“U.S.”) federal income tax purposes (“REIT”). Excluding hotels, these additional assets do not generate REIT-qualifying income and are operating businesses. As a result, on January 9, 2023, the Company’s board of directors authorized revocation of our REIT election which became effective as of January 1, 2023. Historically, the Company filed an election to be taxed as a REIT commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2014, which remained in effect with respect to each taxable year ended on or before December 31, 2022.

As a consequence of the Company’s decision to revoke our election to be taxed as a REIT, the ownership limitations set forth in Section 5.7 of its charter, including, without limitation, the “Aggregate Share Ownership Limit,” as defined therein, no longer apply. The Company filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland a Certificate of Notice reflecting the board’s determination that it is no longer in its best interest to continue to qualify as a REIT and that therefore the Aggregate Share Ownership Limit will no longer be in effect.

On January 11, 2023 the Company effected a 1-for-8 reverse stock split that was previously approved by the Company’s board of directors, resulting in each outstanding share of Class A common stock being converted into 0.125 shares of common stock, with no fractional shares being issued (the “Reverse Stock Split”). All references made to share or per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and applicable disclosures have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

Additionally, effective January 19, 2023, the Company amended its charter to change its name to “American Strategic Investment Co.” from “New York City REIT, Inc.” Trading of the Company’s Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the new name began on January 20, 2023 under the existing trading symbol “NYC.” Shares of the Company’s Class A common stock were first listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on August 18, 2020. Also, on February 22, 2023, the Company completed a non-transferable rights offering raising gross proceeds of $5.0 million (the “Rights Offering”). As a result, the Company issued 386,100 shares of its Class A common stock subscribed for in the Rights Offering on February 27, 2023.

Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through the OP and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company’s advisor, New York City Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”), manages the Company’s day-to-day business with the assistance of the Company’s property manager, New York City Properties, LLC (the “Property Manager”). The Advisor and Property Manager are under common control with AR Global Investments, LLC (“AR Global”) and these related parties receive compensation and fees for providing services to the Company. The Company also reimburses these entities for certain expenses they incur in providing these services.

Note 2 —Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the OP. The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management makes significant estimates regarding revenue recognition, purchase price allocations to record investments in real estate, and fair value measurements, as applicable.

Continuing Adverse Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. New York City, where all of the Company’s properties are located, was among the hardest hit locations in the country and fully reopened from relevant restrictions and lockdowns on March 7, 2022. While the COVID-19 pandemic subsided and the Company’s properties remain accessible to all tenants, some tenants have vacated, terminated or otherwise did not renew their lease. The Company has incurred increased unreimbursed property operating expenses because the Company’s occupancy has not fully recovered to pre-pandemic levels, and these increased expenses have been compounded by inflation. The pace of recovery in the New York City office market from the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be challenging as leasing and occupancy trends for the broader market have slowed, leading political, community and business leaders to propose repositioning plans for many New York City office assets that are experiencing high vacancy rates. Some businesses continue to maintain hybrid or all work-from-home arrangements in response to employee desire for more flexibility, which may lead to a downturn in the commercial real estate market and potentially represent a long-term negative impact on the New York City real estate market.There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to lease all or any portion of the currently vacant space at any property on acceptable or favorable terms, or at all.

Cash Collection and Mortgage Covenant non-compliance

In prior periods, the COVID-19 pandemic caused certain of the Company’s tenants to be unable to make rent payments to the Company timely, or at all. Rent collections from the Company’s tenants have generally been timely in the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and no new COVID-19 deferral or abatement agreements were entered into. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 the occupancy and operating results at (i) 9 Times Square, (ii) 1140 Avenue of Americas, and (iii) 8713 Fifth Avenue have not yet fully recovered, which has caused non-compliance of certain mortgage debt covenants or cash trap or cash sweep events under their non-recourse mortgages in the past several quarters and in the current quarter. In our 400 E. 67th Street property, one major tenant's lease expired and we subsequently entered in to a month to month lease with that tenant. This tenant later vacated the property during the year ended December 31, 2024 after the month to month leases ended. In addition at the Company’s 400 E. 67th Street property, another major tenant is paying through the end of their lease, which is September 2025; however, they moved out of the space in the third quarter of 2024. See Note 4 — Mortgage Notes Payable, Net for further details regarding the status of the debt covenants under the above mentioned mortgages as of December 31, 2024.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues, which are derived primarily from lease contracts, include rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of each lease reported on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. As of December 31, 2024, these leases had a weighted-average remaining lease term of 6.3 years. Because many of the Company’s leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, straight-line basis accounting requires that the Company record a receivable for, and include in revenue from tenants, unbilled rent receivables that the Company will receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. When the Company acquires a property, the acquisition date is considered to be the commencement date for purposes of this calculation. For new leases after acquisition, the commencement date is considered to be the date the tenant takes control of the space. For lease modifications, the commencement date is considered to be the date the lease modification is executed. The Company defers the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. Pursuant to certain of the Company’s lease agreements, tenants are required to reimburse the Company for certain property operating expenses (recorded in total revenue from tenants), in addition to paying base rent, whereas under certain other lease agreements, the tenants are directly responsible for all operating costs of the respective properties. To the extent such costs exceed the applicable tenant’s base year, many but not all of the Company’s leases require the tenant to pay its allocable share of increases in operating expenses, which may include common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and insurance. Under ASC 842, the Company reports combined lease and non-lease components in a single line “Revenue from tenants.” For expenses paid directly by the tenant the Company has reflected them on a net basis.

The following table presents future base rent payments due to the Company over the next five years and thereafter. These amounts exclude contingent rent payments, as applicable, that may be collected from certain tenants based on provisions related to sales thresholds and increases in annual rent based on exceeding certain economic indexes, among other items.

The Company owns certain properties with leases that include provisions for the tenant to pay contingent rental income based on a percent of the tenant’s sales upon the achievement of certain sales thresholds or other targets which may be monthly, quarterly or annual targets. As the lessor under the aforementioned leases, the Company defers the recognition of contingent rental income, until the specified target that triggered the contingent rental income is achieved, or until such sales upon which percentage rent is based are known. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, approximately $0.1 million, $0.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in contingent rental income is included in revenue from tenants in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent and unbilled rents receivable and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. The Company is required to assess, based on credit risk, if it is probable that the Company will collect virtually all of the lease payments at the lease commencement date, and it must continue to reassess collectability periodically thereafter based on new facts and circumstances affecting the credit risk of the tenant. If the Company determines that it is probable that it will collect virtually all of the lease payments (base rent and additional rent), the lease will continue to be accounted for on an accrual basis (i.e., straight-line). However, if the Company determines it is not probable that it will collect virtually all of the lease payments, the lease will be accounted for on a cash basis and the straight-line rent receivable accrued will be written off, as well as any accounts receivable, where it was subsequently concluded that collection was not probable. Cost recoveries from tenants are included in operating revenue from tenants on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period the related costs are incurred, as applicable.

The Company records uncollectible amounts as reductions in revenue from tenants. Some of these reductions may relate to tenants that terminated their leases early or relate to leases that had not been paying rent and were placed on a cash basis. During the year ended December 31, 2024 there were $0.8 million in uncollectible amounts recorded as reductions in revenue from tenants. There wereno such reductions recorded for the year ended 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2022 there was onlyone tenant for which we recorded rent on a cash basis. The lease with this tenant was terminated as of September 30, 2022. During the years ended 2024 and 2023, no rental income was received from any of the tenants that were previously placed on a cash basis.

In the third quarter of 2021, the Company launched Innovate NYC, a co-working company, at 1140 Avenue of the Americas. The Company recorded revenue of approximately $0.0 million, $0.7 million and $0.8 million from Innovate NYC during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which is considered non-lease income. In November of 2023 Innovate NYC terminated its agreement with the Company.

Investments in Real Estate

Investments in real estate are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life of the asset. Costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

At the time an asset is acquired, the Company evaluates the inputs, processes and outputs of the asset acquired to determine if the transaction is a business combination or asset acquisition. If an acquisition qualifies as a business combination, the related transaction costs are recorded as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. If an acquisition qualifies as an asset acquisition, the related transaction costs are generally capitalized and subsequently amortized over the useful life of the acquired assets. See the Purchase Price Allocation section in this Note for a discussion of the initial accounting for investments in real estate.

Disposal of real estate investments that represent a strategic shift in operations that will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results are required to be presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations. No properties were presented as discontinued operations during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 or 2022. Properties that are intended to be sold are to be designated as “held for sale” on the consolidated balance sheets at the lesser of carrying amount or fair value less estimated selling costs when they meet specific criteria to be presented as held for sale, most significantly that the sale is probable within one year. The Company evaluates probability of sale based on specific facts including whether a sales agreement is in place and the buyer has made significant non-refundable deposits. Properties are no longer depreciated when they are classified as held for sale. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not have any properties held for sale.

Purchase Price Allocation

In both a business combination and an asset acquisition, the Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on their respective fair values. Tangible assets may include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements on an as if vacant basis. Intangible assets may include the value of in-place leases and above and below market leases and other identifiable assets or liabilities based on lease or property specific characteristics. In addition, any assumed mortgages receivable or payable and any assumed or issued noncontrolling interests (in a business combination) are recorded at their estimated fair values. In allocating the fair value to assumed mortgages, amounts are recorded to debt premiums or discounts based on the present value of the estimated cash flows, which is calculated to account for either above or below-market interest rates. In a business combination, the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is either recorded as goodwill or as a bargain purchase gain. In an asset acquisition, the difference between the acquisition price (including capitalized transaction costs) and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is allocated to the identifiable assets based on their relative fair values. There wereno acquisitions during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

For acquired properties with leases classified as operating leases, the Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their respective fair values. In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company utilizes a number of sources, including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other market data. The Company also considers information obtained about each property as a result of the Company’s pre-acquisition due diligence in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and intangible liabilities assumed.

Tangible assets include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements on an as-if vacant basis. The Company utilizes various estimates, processes and information to determine the as-if vacant property value. Estimates of value are made using customary methods, including data from appraisals, comparable sales, discounted cash flow analysis and other methods. Fair value estimates are also made using significant assumptions such as capitalization rates, discount rates, fair market lease rates and land values per square foot.

Identifiable intangible assets include amounts allocated to acquire leases for above- and below-market lease rates and the value of in-place leases as applicable. Factors considered in the analysis of the in-place lease intangibles include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up period for each property, taking into account current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at contract rates during the expected lease-up period, which typically ranges fromsix to 24 months. The Company also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining initial term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.

The aggregate value of intangible assets related to customer relationship, as applicable, is measured based on the Company's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company's overall relationship with the tenant. Characteristics considered by the Company in determining these values include the nature and extent of its existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals, among other factors.

Accounting for Leases

Lessor Accounting

Generally, leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. The operating leases have various expiration dates. For the three year period ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any leases as a lessor that would be considered as sales-type leases or financings under sale-leaseback rules.

As a lessor of real estate, the Company has elected, by class of underlying assets, to account for lease and non-lease components (such as tenant reimbursements of property operating expenses) as a single lease component as an operating lease because (a) the non-lease components have the same timing and pattern of transfer as the associated lease component, and (b) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. Additionally, only incremental direct leasing costs may be capitalized under the accounting guidance. Indirect leasing costs in connection with new or extended tenant leases, if any, are being expensed.

Lessee Accounting

For lessees, the accounting standard requires the application of a dual lease classification approach, classifying leases as either operating or finance leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, while lease expense for finance leases is recognized based on an effective interest method over the term of the lease. Also, lessees must recognize a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Further, certain transactions where at inception of the lease the buyer-lessor accounted for the transaction as a purchase of real estate and a new lease, may now be required to have symmetrical accounting to the seller-lessee if the transaction was not a qualified sale-leaseback and accounted for as a financing transaction. For additional information and disclosures related to the Company’s operating leases, see Note 9 — Commitments and Contingencies.

We are the lessee under a land lease which was previously classified as an operating lease prior to adoption of lease accounting and will continue to be classified as an operating lease under transition elections unless subsequently modified. The Company is the lessee under a long-term ground lease classified as an operating lease. The Company estimates the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) that it would need to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment, over a similar lease term. The base IBR is estimated utilizing observable mortgage and corporate bond rates, which are then adjusted to account for considerations related to the Company’s credit rating and the lease term to select an incremental borrowing rate for the lease.

The right of use asset and lease liability are presented as “Operating lease right-of-use asset” and “Operating lease liability”, on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The lease liability and right of use asset are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term with the corresponding expense classified in “Property operating expenses” on the consolidated statements of operations.

Gain on Dispositions of Real Estate Investments

Gains on sales of rental real estate are not considered sales to customers and will generally be recognized pursuant to the provisions included in ASC 610-20, Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets.

Impairment of Long Lived Assets

The Company periodically assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of a property may be impaired or that its carrying value may not be recoverable. The indicators include sustained net operating losses, a significant change in occupancy, a significant decline in rent collection, economic changes, or if a property will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. To determine whether an asset is impaired, the carrying value of the property’s asset group is compared to the estimated future undiscounted cash flow that the Company expects the property’s asset group will generate over its expected holding period, including any estimated proceeds from the eventual sale or other disposition of the property’s asset group. The estimated future undiscounted cash flow considers factors such as (i) expected future operating income, (ii) market and other applicable trends, and (iii) residual value, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. The Company estimates the expected future operating income using in-place contractual rent and market rents. The Company estimates the lease-up period, market rents and residual values using market information from outside sources such as third-party market research, external appraisals, broker quotes, or recent comparable sales. For residual values, management applies a selected market capitalization rate based on current market data.

If an impairment exists, due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, the Company would recognize an impairment loss in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used. For properties held for sale, the impairment loss recorded would equal the adjustment to fair value less estimated cost to dispose of the asset. For properties to be held and used, the Company estimates the fair value of the property’s asset group by developing a discounted cash flow analysis, which considers factors such as lease up period, expected future operating income, market and other applicable trends, residual value, and discount rate.

Reportable Segment

The Company has determined that it hasone reportable segment, income-producing properties, which consists of activities related to investing in real estate.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings,15 years for land improvements, five toseven years for fixtures and improvements, and the shorter of the useful life or the remaining lease term for tenant improvements and leasehold interests.

The value of in-place leases, exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases, is amortized to expense over the remaining periods of the respective leases.

The value of customer relationship intangibles, if any, is amortized to expense over the initial term and any renewal periods in the respective leases, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and customer relationship intangibles is charged to expense.

Assumed mortgage premiums or discounts, if applicable, are amortized as a reduction or increase to interest expense over the remaining term of the respective mortgages.

Above and Below-Market Lease Amortization

The above-market lease assets are amortized as a reduction of revenue from tenants over the remaining terms of the respective leases and the below-market lease liabilities are amortized as an increase to revenue from tenants over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed rate renewal options of the respective leases. If a tenant with a below-market rent renewal does not renew, any remaining unamortized amount will be taken into income at that time.

The above-market ground lease liabilities are amortized as a reduction of property operating expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The below-market ground lease assets are amortized as an increase to property operating expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases and expected below-market renewal option periods.

The Company may use derivative financial instruments to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. Several of the techniques used to hedge exposure to interest rate fluctuations may also be used to protect against declines in the market value of assets that result from general trends in debt markets. The principal objective of such agreements is to minimize the risks and costs associated with the Company’s operating and financial structure as well as to hedge specific anticipated transactions.

The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Derivatives may also be designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting.

The accounting for subsequent changes in the fair value of these derivatives depends on whether each has been designated and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment. If the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting treatment, any change in the fair value of these derivative instruments is recognized immediately in gains (losses) on derivative instruments in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. If the derivative is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment, the change in the estimated fair value of the derivative is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) to the extent that it is effective with any ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. After the adoption of ASU 2017-12, if the derivative qualified for hedge accounting, all the change in value is recorded in other comprehensive income.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in bank accounts as well as investments in highly-liquid money market funds with original maturities of three months or less. The Company deposits cash with high quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company (“FDIC”) up to an insurance limit. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $18.9 million and $12.8 million, of which $18.2 million and $12.2 million, respectively, were in excess of the amount insured by the FDIC. Although the Company bears risk to amounts in excess of those insured by the FDIC, it does not anticipate any losses as a result thereof.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash primarily consists of ground rent, real estate taxes, structural, leasing commissions, free rent, insurance reserves and cash held in cash management accounts due to certain breaches of debt covenants (see Note 4 — Mortgage Notes Payable, Net for additional information).

Deferred Financing and Leasing Costs, net

Deferred leasing costs, net consist primarily of lease commissions and professional fees incurred, and are deferred and amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over the term of the related lease.

Deferred financing costs relating to the mortgage notes payable (see Note 4 — Mortgage Notes Payable, Net) are reflected net of the related financing on our balance sheet. Deferred financing costs associated with the mortgage notes payable represent commitment fees, legal fees, and other costs associated with obtaining commitments for financing. These costs are amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the financing agreement. Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or paid down before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financial transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close.

Equity-Based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based plan under which its directors, officers and other employees of the Advisor or its affiliates who are involved in providing services to the Company are eligible to receive awards. Awards granted thereunder are accounted for under the guidance for share based payments. The cost of services received in exchange for these stock awards is measured at the grant date fair value of the award and the expense for such an award is included in equity-based compensation and is recognized in accordance with the service period (i.e., vesting) required or when the requirements for exercise of the award have been met.

Effective at the Listing, the Company entered into the 2020 OPP (as defined herein) under which the LTIP Units (as defined herein) were issued to the Advisor which has since ended on August 18, 2023 at the end of the performance period. These awards were market-based awards with a related required service period. In accordance with ASC 718, the LTIP Units were valued at their measurement date and that value was reflected as a charge to earnings evenly over the service period. Following the end of the performance period under the 2020 OPP on August 18, 2023, the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company determined that none of the 501,605 of the LTIP Units subject to the 2020 OPP had been earned, and these LTIP Units were thus automatically forfeited. On that date, the Company reclassified $25.8 million of amounts reflected in non-controlling interest for these LTIP Units to additional paid in capital on its consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of changes in equity. The expense for these non-employee awards is included in the equity-based compensation line item of the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 8 - Stockholders’ Equity and Note 12 - Equity-Based Compensation for additional information.

Income Taxes

The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2014 through its taxable year ended on December 31, 2022, as a result of the board authorized revocation of our REIT election which became effective as of January 1, 2023. The Company believes that, commencing with its taxable year ended on December 31, 2014, it had been organized and operated in a manner so that it qualified as a REIT up until the board revoked the Company’s REIT election. To qualify as a REIT during that period, the Company was required to distribute annually at least 90% of the Company’s REIT taxable income (which does not equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP), determined without regard for the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, and comply with a number of other organizational and operational requirements. As a REIT, the Company generally was not subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on the portion of its REIT taxable income that it distributed to its stockholders. Even while the Company qualified as a REIT, it was subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and properties, as well as U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.

The amount of dividends payable to the Company’s stockholders is determined by the board of directors and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for distribution, financial condition, capital expenditure requirements, as applicable, and annual distribution requirements needed to qualify the Company’s status as a REIT under the Code, during the periods that it elected to be taxed as a REIT.

A “taxable REIT subsidiary” (“TRS”) is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. For deferred items at the TRS and for the Company at December 31, 2022 as a result of its election to revoke its REIT election effective, as of January 1, 2023, the Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In the event the Company determines that it would not be able to realize the deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, the Company establishes a valuation allowance which offsets the previously recognized net deferred income tax asset. Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the TRS’s assets and liabilities used for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes as well as net operating loss carryforwards tax effected for expected tax rates upon reversal.

Basic net loss per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted net loss per share of common stock considers the effect of potentially dilutive instruments outstanding during such period. See Note 14 — Net Loss Per Share for additional information.

Non-controlling Interests

The non-controlling interests represent the portion of the equity in the OP that is not owned by the Company. Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate component of equity on the consolidated balance sheets and presented as net loss attributable to non-controlling interests on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Non-controlling interests are allocated a share of net loss based on their share of equity ownership.

In addition, under the multi-year outperformance agreement with the Advisor (the “2020 OPP”), the OP issued a class of units of limited partnership designated as LTIP Units (“LTIP Units”) during 2020. There were no non-controlling interests as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. See Note 8 — Stockholders’ Equity and Note 12 - Equity-Based Compensation for additional information.

Note 3 —Real Estate Investments

There were no real estate assets acquired or liabilities assumed during the three year period ended December 31, 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2024 the Company disposed of its property located at 9 Times Square for a contract sales price of $63.5 million, which resulted in a loss of $0.3 million, related to closing costs incurred at the time of the close. The Company recognized impairment charges related to the property prior to the sale as described further below. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company disposed of its property located at 421 W. 54th Street - Hit Factory for a contract sales price of $4.5 million, which did not result in a gain or loss on sale as a result of impairment charges recorded during the year ended December 31, 2023 (details below). The property had been vacant since the quarter ended June 30, 2018.

Assets Held for Use

When circumstances indicate the carrying value of a property classified as held for use may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the property for impairment. For the Company, the most common triggering events are (i) concerns regarding the tenant (i.e., credit or expirations) or significant vacancy in the Company’s multi-tenant properties and (ii) changes to the Company’s expected holding period as a result of business decisions or non-recourse debt maturities affecting the Company’s intent or ability to hold the property. If a triggering event is identified, the Company considers the projected cash flows due to various performance indicators, and where appropriate, the Company evaluates the impact on its ability to recover the carrying value of the properties based on the expected cash flows on an undiscounted basis over its intended holding period. The Company makes certain assumptions in this approach including, among others, the market and economic conditions, expected cash flow projections, intended holding periods and assessments of terminal values. Where more than one possible scenario exists, the Company uses a probability weighted approach in estimating cash flows. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analysis may not be achieved, and actual losses for impairment may be realized in the future. If the undiscounted cash flows over the expected hold period are less than the carrying value, the Company records an impairment charge to write the asset down to its fair value. The Company impaired properties during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 under the held and used model. Refer to the discussion below for further details.

Impairments and dispositions of real estate investments

The Company has recorded impairment charges ontwo of its properties in the year ended December 31, 2024 andtwo properties in the year ended December 31, 2023.

The Company recorded $86.6 million of impairment charges in the year ended December 31, 2024 on its 9 Times Square property. The impairment charge that was recorded through June 30, 2024 of $84.7 million was recorded to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value as determined based on the letter of intent signed in June of 2024. During the three months ended September 30, 2024 the Company classified the property as held for sale and an additional impairment charge of $1.9 million was taken for estimated closing costs associated with the anticipated disposition, which occurred on December 18, 2024.

The property was sold for a gross purchase price of $63.5 million.

On the closing date, the Company repaid the $49.5 million mortgage held by Capital One N.A. with respect to the 9 Times Square property and incurred certain minimal additional closing costs of $0.3 million, which is recorded in “Gain or (Loss) on sale of real estate investments” on the Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024.

400 E. 67th Street

The Company recorded an impairment charge of $25.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 on its 400 E. 67th Street property. The impairment was triggered as a result of leasing activity at the property. One major tenant’s lease expired and the tenant signed a month to month lease with us, which also expired in the fourth quarter of 2024. In addition, during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, an additional tenant vacated its current space in this property. Per their agreement with the Company, the tenant is required to pay rent for the remainder of term of their existing lease which is set to expire in the third quarter of 2025. The Company determined that the carrying value exceeded the fair market value of the asset as of September 30, 2024 based on the Company’s discounted cash flow model for the property. The Company’s significant assumptions utilized to determine the fair value of the property were a terminal capitalization rate of 6% and discount rate of 8%.

421 W. 54th Street - Hit Factory

The Company recorded impairment charges of $0.5 million for its property located at 421 W. 54th Street - Hit Factory for the year ended December 31, 2023. The impairment charge incurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, was recorded because the carrying value exceeded the estimated sale price of the asset. The impairment charge incurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was recorded because the carrying value exceeded the sales price of the asset less costs to sell the property upon classification as held for sale.

1140 Avenues of the Americas

The Company recorded an impairment charge of $66.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 for its 1140 Avenues of the Americas property. At December 31, 2023, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the Company would be unable to extend or refinance the secured mortgage note encumbering the property and the property could be sold or otherwise disposed of before the end of its previously estimated useful life. Accordingly, for purposes of assessing recoverability, the Company considered the period through debt maturity in July 2026 to be the period which it had both intent and ability to hold the property. After estimating the projected future cash flows from the property through the term of the mortgage through debt maturity, the Company determined that the estimated future cash flows did not recover the carrying value of the property. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge using an internal discounted cash flow model to reduce the value of the property to its current fair value. The Company’s significant assumptions utilized to determine the fair value of the property was a terminal capitalization rate of 6% and discount rate of 8%.

Significant Tenants

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023 there were no tenants whose annualized rental income on a straight-line basis, based on leases commenced, represented greater than 10% of total annualized rental income for all portfolio properties on a straight-line basis.

Intangible Assets and Liabilities

Acquired intangible assets and lease liabilities consisted of the following as of December 31, 2024 and 2023:

The following table discloses the amounts recognized within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss related to amortization of in-place leases and other intangibles and amortization and accretion of above- and below-market lease assets and liabilities, net, for the periods presented:

(1)During the year ended December 31, 2024, in connection with a tenant vacating their space prior to the lease termination, the Company accelerated the amortization of approximately $0.1 million of in-place lease intangibles, which is included in depreciation and amortization expense in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company did not have any accelerated amortization of in-place lease intangible write-offs during the year ended December 31, 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2022, in connection with a lease modification in the second quarter of 2022 that shortened the remaining term of the lease, the Company accelerated the amortization of approximately $0.3 million of in-place lease intangibles, which is included in depreciation and amortization expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

(2)The Company did not have any accelerated amortization of above-market lease intangible write-offs during the year ended December 31, 2024. In connection with an early lease termination in the second quarter of 2023 that shortened the remaining term of the lease, the Company accelerated the amortization of approximately $0.1 million of above-market lease intangibles during the year ended December 31, 2023, which was included in the revenue from tenants in the consolidated statement of operations. In connection with a lease modification in the second quarter of 2022 that shortened the remaining term of the lease, the Company accelerated the amortization of approximately $0.1 million of above-market lease intangibles during the year ended December 31, 2022, which was included in the revenue from tenants in the consolidated statement of operations.

The following table provides the projected amortization expenses and adjustments to revenue from tenants for the next five years as of December 31, 2024:

Note 4 —Mortgage Notes Payable, Net

The Company’s mortgage notes payable as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:

(1)Formerly fixed as a result of a “pay-fixed” interest rate swap agreement which matured in April 2024. This interest rate swap effectively fixed the mortgage at an annual rate of 3.72% when it was active prior to April 2024.

(2)These mortgage notes payable are currently either in breach of a debt covenant that may result in further restrictions as specified by the terms of the covenants or a cash sweep event. These covenant breaches or cash sweeps do not result in events of default. For more information please see “Debt Covenant Non-Compliance and Cash Sweep Events” section below.

(3)Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, legal fees, and other costs associated with obtaining commitments for financing. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financial transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close.

(4)On April 29, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment to the loan agreement that extended the maturity of the loan to October 31, 2024, which the Company further extended to January 31, 2025, pursuant to an option contained in such agreement, at an effective variable interest rate of one-month SOFR plus a spread of 2.60% per annum. The Company determined to market certain of their properties for sale, including 9 Times Square. This amended agreement allowed the Company to begin marketing the property for sale, with the option to extend in the event the property was under contract for sale but had not yet closed at the time of maturity. On December 18, 2024, the Company sold this property for a gross purchase price of $63.5 million and paid off the 9 Times Square loan in conjunction with the sale. For additional information please see Note 3 — Real Estate Investments.

Collateral and Principal Payments

Real estate assets and intangible assets of $481.4 million, at cost (net of below-market lease liabilities), as of December 31, 2024, have been pledged as collateral to the Company’s mortgage notes payable and are not available to satisfy the Company’s other obligations unless first satisfying the mortgage notes payable on the applicable property. The Company is required to make payments of interest on its mortgage note payable on a monthly basis.

The following table summarizes the scheduled aggregate principal payments subsequent to December 31, 2024:

Debt Covenants Non-Compliance and Cash Sweep Events

Debt Covenant Non-Compliance

The Company has breached both a debt service coverage provision and a reserve fund provision under its non-recourse mortgage secured by the 1140 Avenue of the Americas property in each of the last 18 quarters ended December 31, 2024. The principal amount of the loan was $99.0 million as of December 31, 2024. These breaches are not events of default, rather they require excess cash, if any, generated at the property (after paying operating costs, debt service and capital/tenant replacement reserves) to be held in a segregated account as additional collateral under the loan. The covenants for this loan may be cured if the Company satisfies the required debt service coverage ratio fortwo consecutive quarters, whereupon the additional collateral will be released. The Company can remain subject to this reserve requirement through maturity of the loan without further penalty or ramifications. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 the Company had $1.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively, in cash that is retained by the lender and maintained in restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of those dates.

8713 Fifth Avenue

The Company has breached a debt service coverage ratio covenant under the non-recourse mortgage secured by 8713 Fifth Avenue in each of the last 18 quarters ended December 31, 2024. The principal amount for the loan was $10.0 million as of December 31, 2024. The breach of this covenant did not result in an event of default but rather triggered an excess cash flow sweep period that has been ongoing. The excess cash flow sweep period will continue until the covenant breaches are cured in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. This property has not generated any excess cash since the breach occurred, and thus no cash has ever been trapped related to this property.

Additionally, in the event that the debt service coverage ratio covenant remains in breach at or below the current level fortwo consecutive calendar quarters and the lender reasonably determines that such breach is due to the property being imprudently managed by the current manager, the lender has the right, but not the obligation, to require that the Company replace the current manager with a third party manager chosen by the Company. The Company has remained in breach for two consecutive quarters as of December 31, 2024, although, the lender has not exercised their right to replace the current manager.

Cash Sweep Events

400 E. 67th Street/200 Riverside Blvd.

The Company entered a lease sweep period under the non-recourse mortgage secured by 400 E. 67th Street/200 Riverside Blvd. in the year ended December 31, 2024, resulting from a near-maturity lease with a major tenant at the property which expired in the third quarter of 2024. The Company can resolve the lease sweep by replacing the tenant. The principal amount for the loan was $50.0 million as of December 31, 2024. Under the loan agreement, a lease sweep period is triggered, when (i) the date that istwelve months prior to the end of the term of the major lease, (ii) the date required by the major tenant to give notice of its exercise of a renewal option, (iii) any major tenant lease is surrendered or terminated prior to the expiration date, (iv) if the major tenant discontinues its operations and the major tenants long term debt is not rated lower than investment grade, (v) any material default under the major tenant’s lease, and (vi) any major tenant insolvency proceeding. A lease sweep period was triggered for the first time in the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Under the lease sweep period, any excess cash generated, if any, is to be held in a segregated reserve account controlled by the lender as additional collateral. As of December 31, 2024 the Company had $4.2 million, in cash swept that is retained by the lender and recorded within restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company hadno swept cash as of December 31, 2023.

On April 29, 2024, the Company entered a cash sweep period under the non-recourse mortgage secured by the 9 Times Square asset pursuant to an amendment which, among other things, extended the maturity of the loan to October 31, 2024, which the Company further extended to January 31, 2025, pursuant to an option contained in such agreement. The amendment provides that Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Amendment) shall be deposited to an account maintained by the Administrative Agent within ten (10) calendar days of the end of each month. On December 18, 2024, the Company sold the property for $63.5 million and paid off the loan in conjunction.

Other Debt Covenants

The Company was in compliance with the remaining covenants under its other mortgage notes payable as of December 31, 2024 and, it continues to monitor compliance with those provisions. If the Company experiences additional lease terminations, due to tenant bankruptcies or otherwise, it is possible that certain of the covenants on other loans may be breached and the Company may also become restricted from accessing excess cash flows from those properties. Similar to the loans discussed above, the Company’s other mortgages also contain cash management provisions that are not considered events of default, and as such, acceleration of principal would only occur upon an event of default.

The Company was informed by the lender on February 19, 2025 that the Company was in default under the loan agreement for failure to make certain scheduled interest payments. The Company made the payments in question in full on the same day the default notice was received by the Company. The Company believes this is a cure for the event of default. The Company has received no additional notices from the lender, which has neither charged the Company any default interest nor accelerated any portion of that debt.

On November 19, 2024, the lender sent a notice to the Company alleging that the Company was in default under the loan agreement for events that occurred in the third and fourth quarters of 2023, specifically the Company’s failure to establish a cash management account for excess cash sweeps over monthly debt service requirements. The lender had been remitting excess cash on their own accord until the period of cash sweep was put into effect in 2024 as described above. In their notice of default, the lender asserted the Company owes an estimated $1.0 million in excess cash to be deposited into the loan reserve account. The Company responded to the notice of default rejecting the assertions made by the lender, which the Company believes are without merit as a result of the lender's failure to implement a cash management account and the Company’s inability to take such action unilaterally due to the mechanics for receipt of lease payments provided for by the loan agreement. The Company has not received a response or any additional notices from the lender, which has not accelerated any portion of the loan. The Company has made all other required payments in accordance with the loan agreement. Beginning in March 2025, the lender has charged default interest to the Company, currently totaling $3.3 million. While the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of legal matters, the Company currently believes that it is not probable a liability has been incurred with respect to the alleged defaults and intends to challenge the charge of default interest by the lender.

Note 5 —Liquidity Risk

The Company faces significant liquidity constraints due to a combination of factors, including sustained declines in rental income, constrained cash flow from operations, and ongoing debt service obligations. The Company’s portfolio consists primarily of office properties located in Manhattan, which have been adversely impacted by shifts in market demand following the COVID-19 pandemic. While management has successfully executed lease transactions to mitigate vacancy risk, new leases have been executed at market rental rates below prior contractual rates, resulting in decreased revenue compared to historical levels.

Each of the Company’s properties is encumbered by non-recourse mortgage loans. While the Company has no corporate-level revolving credit facility or other committed liquidity sources, it successfully repaid its most imminent debt maturity and has no other mortgage obligation due until June 2026. However, each loan includes cash management provisions that have resulted in ongoing lender-imposed cash constraints, restricting the Company’s ability to access rental cash flows for general corporate purposes. These restrictions, combined with declining rental revenue and increasing accounts payable balances have exacerbated liquidity challenges.

To address these liquidity constraints, the Company has suspended the corporate dividend, restructured advisory fee arrangements such that the Advisor can be paid with shares in lieu of cash, and approved a plan to market certain assets for sale to generate liquidity.

While management believes that its current resources and expected cash flows are sufficient to meet its obligations as they become due over the next 12 months, there remains uncertainty regarding the Company’s longer-term liquidity position. If market conditions do not improve, or if the Company is unable to execute on planned liquidity initiatives, it may face challenges in meeting future obligations, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Management continues to evaluate its strategic alternatives and monitor market conditions closely to ensure the Company maintains sufficient liquidity to operate effectively.

Note 6 —Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company determines fair value based on quoted prices when available or through the use of alternative approaches, such as discounting the expected cash flows using market interest rates commensurate with the credit quality and duration of the instrument. This alternative approach also reflects the contractual terms of the instrument, as applicable, including the period to maturity, and may use observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities, and unobservable inputs, such as expected volatility. The guidance defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The Company’s derivative instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with this derivative utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparty. However, as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the Company’s derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivatives valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The valuation of derivative instruments is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated into the fair values to account for the Company’s potential nonperformance risk and the performance risk of the counterparties.

Financial Instruments that are not Reported at Fair Value

The Company is required to disclose at least annually the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value. The fair value of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and distributions payable approximates their carrying value on the consolidated balance sheet due to their short-term nature. The fair value of the variable mortgage note payable is deemed to be equivalent to its carrying value because it bears interest at a variable rate that fluctuates with the market and there has been no significant change in the credit risk or credit markets since origination.

The fair values of the Company’s financial instruments that are not reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet are reported below:

(1)The Company recorded an impairment charge of $66.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 for its 1140 Avenues of the Americas property. As a result, the Company adjusted the fair value of the property’s mortgage to the current carrying value of the property as of December 31, 2023. There were no additional impairment charges in the year ended December 31, 2024. For additional information please see Note 3 — Real Estate Investments.

(2)The Company recorded an impairment charge of $25.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 for its 400 E. 67th Street property. As a result, the Company adjusted the fair value of the 400 E. 67th Street allocable mortgage balance to the property's current carrying value as of December 31, 2024. For additional information please see Note 3 — Real Estate Investments.

Note 7 —Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company currently uses derivative financial instruments, including an interest rate swap, and may in the future use others, including options, floors and other interest rate derivative contracts, to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. The principal objective of such arrangements is to minimize the risks and costs associated with the Company’s operating and financial structure as well as to hedge specific anticipated transactions. The Company does not intend to utilize derivatives for speculative or other purposes other than interest rate risk management. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements are not able to perform under the agreements. To mitigate this risk, the Company endeavors to only enter into derivative financial instruments with counterparties with high credit ratings and with major financial institutions with which the Company and its affiliates may also have other financial relationships. The Company does not anticipate that any of the counterparties will fail to meet their obligations.

The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps and collars as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate collars designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts if interest rates rise above the cap strike rate on the contract and payments of variable-rate amounts if interest rates fall below the floor strike rate on the contract.

The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt. In connection with the modification and partial pay down of the Company’s mortgage loan on its 9 Times Square property in March 2022, the Company terminated a $55.0 million notional, LIBOR based “pay-fixed” interest rate swap and replaced it with a $49.5 million notional, SOFR based “pay-fixed” interest rate swap. At the time of the modification a net carrying amount reflecting the amount paid and the off market value rolled into the new swap and remained in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The amount was amortized into interest expense over the term of the hedged item. This interest rate swap expired in April 2024 and subsequently on December 18, 2024 the property was sold and as a result, there was no unamortized balance remaining as of December 31, 2024.

The Company did not have any derivatives as of December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had the following derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk.

The table below details the location in the financial statements of the gain or loss recognized on interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

Note 8 —Stockholders’ Equity

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had approximately 2.6 million and 2.3 million shares of common stock outstanding, respectively, including unvested restricted shares, after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split (see Note 1 — Organization for additional details). As of December 31, 2024, all of the Company’s shares of common stock outstanding were Class A common stock, including unvested restricted shares.

Rights Offering

In February 2023, the Company raised gross proceeds of $5.0 million ($4.1 million of net proceeds) from its Rights Offering, which entitled holders of rights to purchase 0.20130805 of a share of its Class A common stock for every right held at a subscription price of $12.95 per whole share. As a result, the Company issued 386,100 shares of its Class A common stock subscribed for in the Rights Offering on February 27, 2023. In connection with the Rights Offering, Bellevue and its affiliates acquired approximately 367,956 shares. As of December 31, 2024 Bellevue owned approximately 1,447,734 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (see Note 10 — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements).

Class A Common Stock Issued to the Advisor In Lieu of Cash

Pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement, as amended, and the Property Management Agreement, as amended, the Advisor may elect to receive shares of the Company’s Class A common stock in lieu of cash as payment for the monthly services it provides. For more information on the Advisory Agreement please see Note 10 — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 the Company issued shares in lieu of cash for the asset management and property management fees for a total expense of $1.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

. The following table shows the shares issued in relation to the Side Letter and management agreement for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023:

(1)Retroactively adjusted for the effects of the Reverse Stock Split (see Note 1 for additional information).

Stockholder Rights Plan

In May 2020, the Company announced that its board of directors had approved a stockholder rights plan, but did not take actions to declare a dividend for the plan to become effective. In August 2020, in connection with the Listing and the related bifurcation of common stock into Class A and Class B common stock, the Company entered into an amended and restated rights agreement, which amended and restated the stockholders rights plan approved in May 2020 and declared a dividend payable in August 2020, ofone Class A right for and on each share of Class A common stock andone Class B right for and on each share of Class B common stock, in each case, outstanding on the close of business on August 28, 2020 to the stockholders of record on that date. Each right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”), of the Company at a price of $55.00 per one one-thousandth of a share of Series A Preferred Stock, represented by a right, subject to adjustment. On August 12, 2021 the expiration date of these rights was extended from August 16, 2021 to August 16, 2022. On August 9, 2022 the expiration date of these rights was extended again from August 16, 2022 to August 18, 2025.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

An amendment and restatement of the DRIP (the “A&R DRIP”) in connection with the Listing became effective on August 28, 2020. The A&R DRIP allows stockholders who have elected to participate to have dividends paid with respect to all or a portion of their shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock reinvested in additional shares of Class A common stock. Shares received by participants in the A&R DRIP will represent shares that are, at the election of the Company, either (i) acquired directly from the Company, which would issue new shares, at a price based on the average of the high and low sales prices of Class A common stock on the NYSE on the date of reinvestment, or (ii) acquired through open market purchases by the plan administrator at a price based on the weighted-average of the actual prices paid for all of the shares of Class A common stock purchased by the plan administrator with proceeds from reinvested dividends to participants for the related quarter, less a per share processing fee.

Shares issued by the Company pursuant to the DRIP or the A&R DRIP were or are recorded within stockholders’ equity in the consolidated balance sheets in the period dividends or other distributions are declared. During the year ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 any DRIP transactions were settled through open market transactions and no shares were issued by the Company.

On July 1, 2022, the Company announced that it suspended paying dividends and has not declared or paid dividends, beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Note 9 —Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Arrangement - Ground Lease

The Company entered into a ground lease agreement in 2016 related to the acquisition of 1140 Avenue of the Americas under a leasehold interest arrangement and recorded an ROU asset and lease liability related to this lease upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 during the year ended December 31, 2019. The ground lease is considered an operating lease. In computing the lease liabilities, the Company discounts future lease payments at an estimated incremental borrowing rate at adoption or acquisition if later. The term of the Company’s ground lease is significantly longer than the term of borrowings available to the Company on a fully-collateralized basis. The Company’s estimate of the incremental borrowing rate required significant judgment.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s ground lease has a remaining lease term of 42.0 years and a discount rate of 8.6%. As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s balance sheet includes an ROU asset and liability of $54.5 million and $54.6 million, respectively, which are included in operating lease right-of-use asset and operating lease liability, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheet. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company paid cash of $4.7 million for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities and recorded expense of $4.9 million on a straight-line basis in accordance with the standard.

The lease expense is recorded in property operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company did not enter into any additional ground leases as lessee during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

The following table reflects the ground lease rent payments due from the Company and a reconciliation to the net present value of those payments as of December 31, 2024:

Fees and Participations Incurred in Connection With the Operations of the Company

Pursuant to the advisory agreement with the Advisor (as amended from time to time, the “Advisory Agreement”), the Advisor manages the Company’s day-to-day operations. The initial term of the Advisory Agreement ends in July 2030 and will automatically renew for successive five-year terms unless either party gives written notice of its election not to renew at least 180 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date. The Company may only elect not to renew the Advisory Agreement on this basis with the prior approval of at least two-thirds of the Company’s independent directors, and no change of control fee (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) is payable if the Company makes this election.

Asset Management Fees and Variable Management/Incentive Fees

The Company pays the Advisor a base asset management fee on the first business day of each month equal to (x) $0.5 million plus (y) a variable amount equal to (a) 1.25% of the equity proceeds received after November 16, 2018, divided by (b) 12. The base asset management fee is payable in cash, shares of common stock, units of limited partnership interest in the OP, or a combination thereof, at the Advisor’s election. The Advisor elected to receive shares of Class A common stock in lieu of cash for the base management fee in each of the months of August, September, October, November, and December 2022, as well as in the months of January 2023, March 2024 and May 2024 (see Note 8 — Stockholders’ Equity). Equity proceeds are defined as, with respect to any period, cumulative net proceeds of all common and preferred equity and equity-linked securities issued by the Company and its subsidiaries during the period, including: (i) any equity issued in exchange or conversion of exchangeable notes based on the stock price at the date of issuance and convertible equity; (ii) any other issuances of equity, including but not limited to units in the OP (excluding equity-based compensation but including issuances related to an acquisition, investment, joint-venture or partnership); and (iii) effective following the time the Company commences paying a dividend of at least $0.05 per share per annum to its stockholders, which occurred in October 2020), any cumulative Core Earnings (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) in excess of cumulative distributions paid on the Company’s common stock since November 16, 2018, the effective date of the most recent amendment and restatement of the Advisory Agreement.

The Advisory Agreement also entitles the Advisor to an incentive variable management fee. In August 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to the Advisory Agreement to adjust the quarterly thresholds of Core Earnings Per Adjusted Share (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) the Company must reach on a quarterly basis for the Advisor to receive the variable management fee to reflect the Reverse Stock Split. Prior to this amendment, the variable management fee was equal to (i) the product of (a) the diluted weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock for the calendar quarter (excluding any equity-based awards that are subject to performance metrics that are not currently achieved) multiplied by (b)15.0% multiplied by (c) the excess of Core Earnings Per Adjusted Share for the previous three-month period in excess of $0.1458 (before any adjustment for the Reverse Stock Split), plus (ii) the product of (x) the diluted weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock for the calendar quarter (excluding any equity-based awards that are subject to performance metrics that are not currently achieved) multiplied by (y)10.0% multiplied by (z) the excess of Core Earnings Per Adjusted Share for the previous three-month period in excess of $0.1944 (before any adjustment for the Reverse Stock Split). The variable management fee is payable quarterly in arrears in cash, shares of common stock, units of limited partnership interest in the OP or a combination thereof, at the Advisor’s election. No incentive variable management fees were earned during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 or 2022.

Management Fee Expense

The Company recorded expense of $6.1 million, $6.0 million and $5.5 million for base asset management fees during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 respectively. There were no variable management fees incurred in any of these periods. The management fees for the year ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 were paid partially with cash and partially with shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The Advisor may elect to but is not obligated to accept shares in lieu of cash for these management fees and makes this election on a monthly basis.

The base asset management fees for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were paid in cash, except for such periods discussed in Note 8 — Stockholders’ Equity — Class A Common Stock Issued to the Advisor In Lieu of Cash.

Property Management Fees

Pursuant to the Property Management and Leasing Agreement (the “PMA”), as most recently amended on March 29, 2024 except in certain cases where the Company contracts with a third party, the Company pays the Property Manager a property management fee equal to: (i) for non-hotel properties,3.25% of gross revenues from the properties managed, plus market-based leasing commissions, and (ii) for hotel properties, a market-based fee based on a percentage of gross revenues. The term of the PMA is coterminous with the term of the Advisory Agreement.

Pursuant to the PMA, the Company reimburses the Property Manager for property-level expenses. These reimbursements are not limited in amount and may include reasonable salaries, bonuses, and benefits of individuals employed by the Property Manager, except for the salaries, bonuses, and benefits of individuals who also serve as one of the Company’s executive officers or as an executive officer of the Property Manager or any of its affiliates. The Property Manager may also subcontract the performance of its property management and leasing services duties to third parties and pay all or a portion of its property management fee to the third parties with whom it contracts for these services.

On April 13, 2018, in connection with the loan for its 400 E. 67th Street - Laurel Condominium and 200 Riverside Boulevard properties, the Company entered into a new property management agreement with the Property Manager (the “April 2018 PMA”) to manage the properties secured by the loan. With respect to these properties, the substantive terms of the April 2018 PMA are identical to the terms of the PMA, except that the property management fee for non-hotel properties is 4.0% of gross revenues from the properties managed, plus market-based leasing commissions. The April 2018 PMA has an initial term ofone year that is automatically extended for an unlimited number of successiveone-year terms at the end of each year unless any party gives 60 days’ written notice to the other parties of its intention to terminate.

In March 2024, the Company and the Property Manager amended the PMA to allow the Property Manager to elect to receive Class A Units or shares of the Company’s common stock in lieu of cash for all fees payable to the Property Manager.

The Company incurred approximately $1.7 million and $1.6 million in property management fees during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Professional fees and other reimbursements for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 were $4.4 million, $4.4 million and $4.4 million, respectively. These amounts include reimbursements to the Advisor for administrative, overhead and personnel services, which are subject to the limits noted above, as well as costs associated with directors and officers insurance which are not subject to those limits.

Termination Fees Payable to the Advisor

The Advisory Agreement requires the Company to pay a termination fee to the Advisor in the event the Advisory Agreement is terminated prior to the expiration of the initial term in certain limited scenarios. The termination fee will be payable to the Advisor if either the Company or the Advisor exercises the right to terminate the Advisory Agreement in connection with the consummation of the first change of control (as defined in the Advisory Agreement). The termination fee is equal to $15 million plus an amount equal to the product of: (i)three (if the termination was effective on or prior to June 30, 2020) or (ii)four (if the termination is effective after June 30, 2020), multiplied by applicable Subject Fees (defined below).

As a result of these relationships, the Company is dependent upon the Advisor and its affiliates. In the event that the Advisor and its affiliates are unable to provide the Company with the respective services, the Company will be required to find alternative providers of these services.

Note 12 —Equity-Based Compensation

Equity Plans

Restricted Share Plan

Prior to the Listing, the Company had an employee and director incentive restricted share plan (as amended, the “RSP”). The RSP provided for the automatic grant of the number of restricted shares equal to $30,000 divided by the then-current Estimated Per-Share NAV, which were made without any further approval by the Company’s board of directors or the stockholders, after initial election to the board of directors and after each annual stockholder meeting, with such restricted shares vesting annually overa five-year period following the grant date in increments of 20.0% per annum. The RSP also provided the Company with the ability to grant awards of restricted shares to the Company’s board of directors, officers and employees (if the Company ever has employees), employees of the Advisor and its affiliates, employees of entities that provide services to the Company, directors of the Advisor or of entities that provide services to the Company, certain consultants to the Company and the Advisor and its affiliates or to entities that provide services to the Company.

2020 Equity Plan

Effective at the Listing, the Company’s independent directors approved an equity plan for the Advisor (the “Advisor Plan”) and an equity plan for individuals (the “Individual Plan” and together with the Advisor Plan, the “2020 Equity Plan”). The Advisor Plan is substantially similar to the Individual Plan, except with respect to the eligible participants. Awards under the Individual Plan is open to the Company’s directors, officers and employees (if the Company ever has employees), employees, officers and directors of the Advisor and as a general matter, employees of affiliates of the Advisor that provide services to the Company. Awards under the Advisor Plan may only be granted to the Advisor and its affiliates (including any person to whom the Advisor subcontracts substantially all of responsibility for directing or performing the day-to-day business affairs of the Company).

The 2020 Equity Plan succeeded and replaced the existing RSP. Following the effectiveness of the 2020 Equity Plan at the Listing, no further awards have been or will be granted under the RSP; provided, however, any outstanding awards under the RSP, such as unvested restricted shares held by the Company’s independent directors, will remain in effect in accordance with their terms and the terms of the RSP, until all those awards are exercised, settled, forfeited, canceled, expired or otherwise terminated. The Company accounts for forfeitures when they occur. While the RSP provided only for awards of restricted shares, the 2020 Equity Plan has been expanded to also permit awards of restricted stock units, stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, LTIP Units and other equity awards. In addition, the 2020 Equity Plan eliminates the “automatic grant” provisions of the RSP that dictated the terms and amount of the annual award of restricted shares to independent directors. Going forward, grants to independent directors will be made in accordance with the Company’s new director compensation program, as described below under “—Director Compensation.” The 2020 Equity Plan has a term of 10 years, expiring August 18, 2030. The number of shares of the Company’s capital stock that may be issued or subject to awards under the 2020 Equity Plan, in the aggregate, is equal to 20.0% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Class A common stock on a fully diluted basis at any time. Shares subject to awards under the Individual Plan reduce the number of shares available for awards under the Advisor Plan on aone-for-one basis and vice versa.

Director Compensation

Effective on the Listing Date, the Company’s independent directors approved a change to the Company’s director compensation program. Starting with the annual award of restricted shares to be made in connection with the Company’s 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, the amount of the annual award will be increased from $30,000 to $65,000. No other changes were made to the Company’s director compensation program.

Restricted Shares

Restricted share awards entitle the recipient to receive shares of common stock from the Company under terms that provide for vesting over a specified period of time. Restricted shares may not, in general, be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions are removed and the shares have vested. Holders of restricted shares receive cash dividends on the same basis as dividends paid on shares of common stock, if any, prior to the time that the restrictions on the restricted shares have lapsed and thereafter. Any dividends payable in shares of common stock are subject to the same restrictions as the underlying restricted shares.

In March 2022, the compensation committee delegated authority to the Company’s chief executive officer to award up to 25,000 restricted shares (adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split) to employees of the Advisor or its affiliates who are involved in providing services to the Company, including the Company’s chief financial officer, subject to certain limits and restrictions imposed by the compensation committee. The compensation committee remains responsible for approving and administering all grants of awards to the Company’s chief financial officer or any other executive officer of the Company, including any award of restricted shares recommended by the Company’s chief executive officer. No awards under the 2020 Equity Plan may be made pursuant to this delegation of authority to anyone who is also a partner, member or equity owner of the parent of the Advisor.

Restricted share awards that have been granted to the Company’s directors provide for accelerated vesting of the portion of the unvested restricted shares scheduled to vest in the year of the recipient’s voluntary termination or the failure to be re-elected to the Company’s board of directors.

In the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company issued 2,038 restricted shares (adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split) to a member of the Company’s board of directors. During the quarter ended June 30, 2023 the Company issued 13 restricted shares to an employee of the advisor and its affiliates. In the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the Company issued 24,042 issued to the Company’s the board of directors as part of the annual award of restricted shares by the Company to the board of directors. These restricted shares issued to the board of directors will vest in 20% increments on each of the first five anniversaries of the respective grant dates. Also, during the year ended December 31, 2023, several former employees of the advisor that were terminated, and as defined in the award agreement, forfeited a total 2,792 restricted shares. In October of 2023, the Company granted 10,139 restricted shares to employees of the Advisor. The restricted shares granted to employees of the Advisor will vest in 25% increments on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date.

In the quarter ended March 31, 2024, three former employees of the Advisor terminated their employment, and as defined in the award agreement, forfeited a total of 953 restricted shares.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 48,500 restricted shares to employees of the Advisor. The restricted shares granted to employees of the Advisor will vest in 25% increments on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date. In addition, during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 10,000 restricted shares to the Company’s CEO and 4,375 restricted shares to the Company’s CFO. The restricted shares granted to the CEO and CFO of the Advisor will vest in 25% increments on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date. Also, during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 1,619 fully vested restricted shares to an employee who previously terminated their employment, as part of a termination agreement

During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company issued 21,216 restricted shares as part of the annual award by the Company to the Company’s board of directors. These restricted shares issued to the board of directors will vest in 20% increments on each of the first five anniversaries of the respective grant dates.

The following table displays restricted share award activity during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 and has been retroactively adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split (see Note 1 — Organization for additional details):

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $1.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost, respectively, related to unvested restricted share awards granted and the cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.0 years. Restricted share awards are expensed in accordance with the service period required. Compensation expense related to restricted share awards was approximately $0.4 million, $0.6 million and $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Compensation expense related to restricted share awards is recorded as general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Also, for the year ended December 31, 2022, approximately $0.1 million of additional net amortization expense was recorded for the accelerated vesting of restricted shares ofone employee of the Advisor and the forfeiture, new issuance and vesting of restricted shares of other former employees of the Advisor who are providing certain consulting services to the Advisor.

Multi-Year Outperformance Award

On the Listing Date, the Company, the Company, the OP and the Advisor entered into the 2020 OPP pursuant to which a performance-based equity award was granted to the Advisor. The award was based on the recommendation of the Company’s compensation consultant, and approved by the Company’s independent directors, acting as a group.

Initially, the award under the 2020 OPP was in the form of a single Master LTIP Unit. On September 30, 2020, the 30 th trading day following the Listing Date, in accordance with its terms, the Master LTIP Unit automatically converted into 501,605 LTIP Units, equal to the quotient of $50.0 million divided by $99.68 (adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split), which represented the average closing price of one share of Class A common stock over theten consecutive trading days immediately prior to September 30, 2020. This number of LTIP Units represents the maximum number of LTIP Units that may be earned by the Advisor during a performance period ending on the earliest of (i) August 18, 2023, (ii) the effective date of any Change of Control (as defined in the 2020 OPP), and (iii) the effective date of any termination of the Advisor’s service as advisor of the Company. This number of LTIP Units represented the maximum number of LTIP Units that could have been earned by the Advisor during a performance period which ended on August 18, 2023. The compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company determined that none of the 501,605 of the LTIP Units subject to the 2020 OPP had been earned under the performance measures.

For accounting purposes, July 19, 2020 is treated as the grant date (the “Grant Date”), because the Company’s independent directors approved the 2020 OPP and the award made thereunder on that date. The Company engaged third party specialists, who used a Monte Carlo simulation, to calculate the fair value as of the date the Master LTIP Unit converted (September 30, 2020), on which date the fair value was also fixed. The total fair value of the LTIP Units of $25.8 million is being recorded over the requisite service period of 3.1 years beginning on the Grant Date and ending on the third anniversary of the Listing Date (August 18, 2023). As a result, during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not record any equity-based compensation expense related to the LTIP Units. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded equity-based compensation expense related to the LTIP Units of $5.3 million and $8.4 million, respectively, which is recorded in equity-based compensation in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The LTIP Units issued pursuant to the 2020 OPP could potentially have been earned by the Advisor during a performance period which ended on August 18, 2023. The compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company determined that none of the 501,605 of the LTIP Units subject to the 2020 OPP had been earned under the performance measures. These LTIP Units were thus automatically forfeited effective as of August 18, 2023, without the payment of any consideration by the Company or the OP. On that date, the Company reclassified amounts reflected in non-controlling interest for these LTIP Units to additional paid in capital on its consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of equity. As of December 31, 2024, the total fair value of the LTIP Units had been fully amortized to expense and no future expense remains.

LTIP Units/Distributions/Redemption

The rights of the Advisor as the holder of the LTIP Units are governed by the terms of the LTIP Units set forth in the agreement of limited partnership of the OP. Holders of LTIP Units are entitled to distributions on the LTIP Units equal to 10% of the distributions made per Class A Unit (other than distributions of sale proceeds) until the LTIP Units were earned. Distributions paid on a Class A Unit are equal to dividends paid on a share of Class A common stock. Distributions paid on LTIP Units were not subject to forfeiture, even if the LTIP Units were ultimately forfeited. The Advisor was entitled to a priority catch-up distribution on each earned LTIP Unit equal to 90% of the aggregate distributions paid on Class A Units during the applicable performance period. Any LTIP Units that were earned became entitled to receive the same distributions paid on the Class A Units. If and when the Advisor’s capital account with respect to an earned LTIP Unit was equal to the capital account balance of a Class A Unit, the Advisor, as the holder of the earned LTIP Unit, in its sole discretion, was entitled to convert the LTIP Unit into a Class A Unit, which in turn may have been redeemed on aone-for-one basis for, at the Company’s election, a share of Class A common stock or the cash equivalent thereof. On July 1, 2022, the Company announced that it had temporarily suspended its policy regarding dividends paid on its Class A common stock, beginning with the dividend that would have been payable for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 and quarterly periods thereafter. Accordingly, since the LTIP Units only received distributions when the Class A common stock received dividends there wereno distributions to the LTIP Units beginning with the distribution that would have been payable for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 and quarterly periods thereafter.

For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 the Company paid zero, zero and $80,000 respectively, of distributions related to the LTIP units. As discussed above, the LTIP Units were automatically forfeited effective as of August 18, 2023, without the payment of any consideration by the Company or the OP.

Performance Measures

With respect to one-half of the LTIP Units granted under the 2020 OPP, the number of LTIP Units that could have become earned (if any) was determined as of the last day of the performance period based on the Company’s achievement of absolute total stockholder return (“TSR”) levels as shown in the table below:

If the Company’s absolute TSR was more than 12% but less than 18%, or more than 18% but less than 24%, the percentage of the Absolute TSR LTIP Units that could have become earned was determined using linear interpolation as between those tiers, respectively.

With respect to the remaining one-half of the LTIP Units granted under the 2020 OPP, the number of LTIP Units that could have become earned (if any) was determined as of the last day of the performance period based on the difference (expressed in terms of basis points, whether positive or negative, as shown in the table below) between the Company’s absolute TSR on the last day of the performance period relative to the average TSR of a peer group consisting of Empire State Realty Trust, Inc., Franklin Street Properties Corp., Paramount Group, Inc. and Clipper Realty Inc. as of the last day of the performance period.

If the relative TSR excess was between -600 basis points andzero basis points, or between zero basis points and +600 basis points, the percentage of the Relative TSR LTIP Units that could have become earned was determined using linear interpolation as between those tiers, respectively.

Note 13 —Income and Other Taxes

On December 30, 2022, the Company announced that it was changing its business strategy by expanding the scope of the assets and businesses the Company may own and operate. By investing in other asset types, the Company may generate income that does not otherwise constitute income that qualifies for purposes of qualifying as a REIT. As a result, on January 9, 2023, the Company’s board of directors authorized revocation of the Company’s REIT election which became effective as of January 1, 2023. Historically, effective with the taxable year ended December 31, 2014 through the taxable year ended December 31,2022, the Company had elected to be taxed as a REIT. As a REIT, the Company was allowed a special deduction for dividends paid. As a corporation, the Company expects to pays a capital base tax in NYC of$0.3 million for the year ended December 31 2024, which is included in general and administrative expenses.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company hadno material uncertain tax positions. The taxable years subsequent to and including December 31, 2019 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

As a REIT, the Company had deferred tax items, however, due to the Company’s prior intent and ability to maintain REIT status, they were reflected an effective tax rate of zero upon their future reversal. Because the Company revoked its REIT election as of January 1, 2023, the future reversal of these temporary differences will occur as a taxable corporation at full rates. Accordingly, the tax effects of temporary difference that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 are presented below:

The Company is subject to U.S. federal and state corporate income taxes. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had gross federal net operating loss carryf orwards of $298.8 million and $186.5 million, respectively, and gross state net operating loss carryforwards of $287.2 million and $176.0 million, respectively, which are available to offset future U.S. federal and state taxable income, if and when it arises. Any federal net operating loss carryforwards generated before December 31, 2017 will begin to expire during 2035. A portion of the net operating loss carryforwards may be limited in their use due to certain provisions of the Code, including but not limited to Section 382, which imposes an annual limit on the amount of net operating losses and net capital loss carryforward that the Company can use to offset future taxable income.

Because of the Company’s recent operating history of taxable losses and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the results of operations, the Company is not able to conclude that it is more likely than not it will realize the future benefit of its deferred tax assets; thus the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance as of December 31, 2024. If and when the Company believes it is more likely than not that it will recover its deferred tax assets, the Company will reverse the valuation allowance as an income tax benefit in its consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

Note 14 —Net Loss Per Share

The following is a summary of the basic and diluted net loss per share computation for the periods presented and has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split (see Note 1 — Organization for additional details):

Under current authoritative guidance for determining earnings per share, all unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to distributions are considered to be participating securities and therefore are included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common shares and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s unvested restricted shares, Class A Units and unearned LTIP Units contain rights to receive distributions considered to be non-forfeitable, except in certain limited circumstances, and therefore the Company applies the two-class method of computing earnings per share. The calculation of earnings per share above adjusts net loss to exclude the distributions to the unvested restricted shares, Class A Units and the unearned LTIP Units that were issued under the 2020 OPP from the numerator. On July 1, 2022, the Company suspended its policy regarding dividends paid on its Class A common stock, beginning with the dividend that would have been payable for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. Accordingly, there was no adjustment for the six month period ended December 31, 2022 relating to distributions to LTIP Units which are on paid in arrears. Accordingly, since the LTIP Units only receive distributions when the Class A common stock receives dividends there was no distributions to the LTIP Units beginning with the distribution that would have been payable for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 and quarterly periods thereafter.

Diluted net income per share assumes the conversion of all Class A common stock share equivalents into an equivalent number of shares of Class A common stock, unless the effect is anti-dilutive. The Company considers unvested restricted shares, Class A Units and unvested LTIP Units to be common share equivalents. The following table shows common share equivalents on a weighted average basis that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been antidilutive for the periods presented and has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split (see Note 1 — Organization for additional details).

(1)There were 101,197,36,198, and 18,134 unvested restricted shares (adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split) outstanding as of December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

(2) Formerly known as OP Units. As of December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 there wereno Class A Units outstanding.

(3)There were zero, zero, and 501,605 LTIP Units outstanding (adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split) as of December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively (see Note 12 — Equity-Based Compensation for additional information).

If dilutive, conditionally issuable shares relating to the 2020 OPP award (see Note 12 — Equity-Based Compensation for additional information) would be included, as applicable, in the computation of fully diluted EPS on a weighted-average basis for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 based on shares that would be issued if the applicable balance sheet date was the end of the measurement period. No LTIP Unit share equivalents were included in the computation for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 because (i) no LTIP Units would have been earned based on the trading price of Class A common stock including any cumulative dividends paid (since inception of the 2020 OPP) at December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 and/or (ii) the Company recorded a net loss to common stockholders for all periods presented, any shares conditionally issuable under the LTIPs would be anti-dilutive.

Note 15 —Segment Reporting

We are an externally managed company that owns a portfolio of high-quality commercial real estate located within New York City, primarily Manhattan. The Company’s real estate assets consist of office properties and certain real estate assets that accompany office properties, including retail spaces and amenities. Our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), which is our Chief Executive Officer, does not distinguish or group operations based on geography, size, type or other basis when assessing the financial performance of our properties. Our operating properties have similar economic characteristics and provide similar products and services to consumers. Accordingly, we manage and evaluate our operations as a single reportable segment based on our consolidated financial statements for financial reporting and disclosure purposes.

The CODM is responsible for overseeing our operations and making key strategic decisions, including the allocation of resources, evaluating financial performance, and determining the overall direction of our Company. The CODM receives consolidated financial and operational data to assess performance and make these decisions. Our measure of segment profit or loss is net earnings (loss). The CODM also reviews significant expenses associated with the Company’s single reportable segment which are presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The CODM reviews net earnings (loss) and the relevant components thereof that are directly reflected on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The CODM is also regularly provided the reportable segment level asset information, real estate investments, net, which is directly reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to the descriptions below for further details:

•Net earnings (loss): this metric represents the total profit after accounting for all revenues, expenses and other costs. It reflects our overall financial performance and profitability. Net earnings (loss) is used by our CODM to identify underlying trends in the performance of our business and make comparisons with the financial performance of our competitors. Net earnings (loss) are reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

•Revenue from tenants: a component of net earnings (loss), this balance represents the total income derived from long-term leases with tenants. It is the primary source of revenue for us and reflects the effectiveness of our real estate portfolio in generating rental income. Revenue from tenants is reported in the Revenue section of the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

•Total Operating Expenses: a component of net earnings (loss), operating expenses include all costs related to the maintenance and management of the properties, including property costs and general and administrative expenses. These expenses are critical to maintaining the portfolio’s long-term profitability and are disclosed under the Operating Expenses section of the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

•Real Estate Investments, net: this total represents the value of properties that we actively use to generate rental income. It is a core asset-based metric and a key driver of our long-term growth. Managing real estate held for use is essential for value appreciation and strategic portfolio management, which enables us to make informed decisions regarding acquisitions, divestitures, and overall asset allocation to support sustainable growth and are disclosed under the Real Estate section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 16 —Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and determined that there have not been any events that have occurred that would require adjustments to disclosures in the consolidated financial statements other than the following:

The Company was informed by the lender on February 19, 2025 that the Company was in default under the loan agreement for failure to make certain scheduled interest payments. The Company made the payments in question in full on the same day the default notice was received by the Company. The Company believes this is a cure for the event of default. The Company has received no additional notices from the lender, which has neither charged the Company any default interest nor accelerated any portion of that debt.

On November 19, 2024, the lender sent a notice to the Company alleging that the Company was in default under the loan agreement for events that occurred in the third and fourth quarters of 2023, specifically the Company’s failure to establish a cash management account for excess cash sweeps over monthly debt service requirements. Beginning in March 2025, the lender has charged default interest to the Company.
