Moreover, there is no assurance that the anticipated benefits of the transition from a REIT to a taxable C corporation will be realized or that we will be able to use existing or future NOLs to offset future taxable income, if any. Our federal NOLs totaled$298.8 million as of December 31, 2024. A portion of these federal NOLs will begin to expire during 2035. Likewise, a portion of the NOL carryforward may be limited in its use due to certain portions of the Code, including but not limited to Section 382 which imposes an annual limit on the amount of NOLs and net capital loss carry forwards that the Company may use to affect future taxable income.

Our management evaluated the impact of these errors on its assessment of the design and operating effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting. The material weakness was due to the lack of an effectively designed control activity over identifying corporate expenses associated with non-operating/non-typical events such as the 2022 contested proxy, including new vendors and new services from existing vendors. A material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Current wording

As described in Part II, Item 9A. Controls and Procedures of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, management identified a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) in 2025. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $18.9 million and $12.8 million, respectively. Under the guarantee of certain recourse liabilities under one of our mortgage loans, we are required to maintain a minimum net worth in excess of $175.0 million and minimum liquid assets (i.e. cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash) of $10.0 million. This minimum net worth and cash requirement impacts our ability to fund our other cash needs. In the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the net cash provided by our property operations were not alone sufficient to fund operating expenses and other capital requirements. Our principal sources of cash in recent periods has been cash on hand from prior financings or from offerings of our Class A common stock including proceeds from the Rights Offering.

General economic conditions such as persistently high inflation and interest rates and the impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on the changing nature of in-office working arrangements on the New York City real estate market, which led, for example, to a slow return of persons to their offices may cause certain of our tenants to be unable to make rent payments to us timely, or at all, reducing the amount of cash generated from our operations and therefore our ability to fund operating expenses and other capital requirements. We have also experienced lease terminations, including the terminations in January 2021 due to the bankruptcy of Knotel, a co-working company that was previously the second largest tenant in our portfolio based on annualized straight-line rent as of September 30, 2020 which occupied several floors at the 9 Times Square and 123 William Street properties. There can be no assurance that we will be able to recover on any of the claims we have against Knotel. Funding our cash needs from cash on hand or the other sources mentioned above reduces the amount of capital available for other uses, including acquisitions and capital expenditures, which limits our financial and operating flexibility and could adversely affect our business.

Our ability to increase the amount of cash we generate from property operations depends on a variety of factors, including the performance of our tenants and our business. Some of our loan agreements also contain cash trap provisions that are triggered if the performance of our properties decline. When these cash traps are active, any excess cash flows are restricted to the specific property and are unable to be used for other purposes, such as expenses on capital improvements at other properties. This could affect our liquidity and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. As of December 31, 2024, much of our cash was restricted due to the operation of three cash traps (1140 Avenue of the Americas, 400 E. 67th Street and 8713 Fifth Avenue), which together, represent 32.6% of the rentable square feet in our portfolio as of December 31, 2024. Also, we had $1.6 million of cash maintained in segregated cash accounts, and classified as restricted cash on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, resulting from the breach of covenants under loan agreements secured by our 1140 Avenue of the Americas property. Due to this covenant breach all cash generated, if any, at our 1140 Avenue of Americas property is required to be held in a segregated account unavailable to us until the covenant breach is cured. Our 8713 Fifth Avenue property has not generated excess cash after debt service and as of December 31, 2024 there is no related cash maintained in a segregated and restricted cash account for that property. If we experience additional lease terminations, due to tenant bankruptcies or otherwise, or tenants placed on cash basis continue to not pay rent, it is possible that certain of the covenants on other loans may be breached and we may also become restricted from accessing excess cash flows from those properties. Breaches of loan covenants have reduced the cash available to us and further breaches will limit our ability to access cash generated by these properties (see — “We have been in breach of several of our mortgage loan covenants for multiple quarters”). There is no assurance that we will be able to cure any breaches of any of our mortgage loan covenants on favorable terms or at all and access the excess cash generated by these properties, if any. Our ability to increase the cash flow from our properties in amounts necessary to cure the covenant breaches and otherwise generate excess cash from our properties that may be used to satisfy our capital needs will depend on the success of our leasing initiatives. We may not be able to lease all or any portion of our currently vacant space, and we may experience additional terminations. Renewals and new leases have been and in the future may be, at lower rental rates.

Decisions regarding the frequency and amount of any future dividends we pay on our Class A common stock will remain at all times entirely at the discretion of our Board, which reserves the right to change our dividend policy at any time and for any reason. Our ability to pay dividends in the future depends on our ability to operate profitably and to generate sufficient cash flows from the operations. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to pay dividends on a regular basis on our Class A common stock or any other class or series of stock we may issue in the future. We have not paid dividends on our Class A common stock since March 2022. There is no assurance as to when or if we will pay dividends in the future. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and during the year ended December 31, 2021, we paid our Class A common stockholders dividends in the amount equal to $0.80 per share per quarter (adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split). These dividends were not funded with cash flow generated by operations but rather from available cash on hand consisting of proceeds from prior period financings and proceeds from our Common Stock ATM Program. Funding dividends from these sources reduced the capital available for other requirements, such as capital expenditures, investing in new assets and paying operating expenses. In addition, although our Board has adopted a resolution authorizing consideration of share repurchases of up to $100 million of shares of Class A common stock over a long-term period actual repurchases must be reviewed and approved by our Board based on management recommendations taking into consideration all information available at the specific time including our available cash resources (including the ability to borrow), market capitalization, trading price and alternative uses such as acquisitions. Provisions contained in our loan agreements may also impact our ability to pay dividends. If we do not restart paying cash dividends on our Class A common stock, the return on your investment, if any, will depend solely on an increase, if any, in the market value of our Class A common stock.

We periodically evaluate our real estate investments for impairment indicators. The judgment regarding the existence of impairment indicators is based on factors such as market conditions, tenant performance, legal structure and our intent and ability to hold the property. For example, the early termination of, or default under, a lease by a major tenant may lead to an impairment charge. If we determine that an impairment has occurred, we are required to make a downward adjustment to the net carrying value of the property. Impairment charges also indicate a potential permanent adverse change in the fundamental operating characteristics of the impaired property. There is no assurance that these adverse changes will be reversed in the future and the decline in the impaired property’s value could be permanent. Any such impairment could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2024 we have incurred impairment charges of $112.5 million.

Current wording

Our individual real estate investments represent a material percentage of our assets.

Previous wording

As of December 31, 2024, our portfolio consisted of six properties, and the two largest assets, 123 William Street and 1140 Avenue of the Americas, aggregated approximately 80% of the total rentable square footage in our portfolio and 77% of annualized straight-line rent. Due to our relatively small asset base and the high concentration of our total assets in relatively large individual real estate assets, the value of our assets could vary more widely with the performance of specific assets than if we invested in a more diverse portfolio of properties. Because of this asset concentration, even modest changes in the value of our real estate assets could have a significant impact on the value of our assets and the value of our Class A common stock.

United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and, until recently, the Israel-Hamas conflict. In response to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number of nations. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. Although the length and impact of the ongoing conflict is highly unpredictable, it could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions and increased cyber-attacks against U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets. The ongoing conflict and the resulting geopolitical instability can adversely impact our business operations and financial performance. These factors may also result in the weaking of the financial condition of a significant tenant or a number of smaller tenants, which could adversely impact their ability to timely pay rent. Our revenues is largely dependent on the success and economic viability of our tenants and, as a result, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Approximately 42% of our leases (based on annualized straight-line rent) expire over the next five years. We may be unable to renew expiring leases on terms and conditions that are as, or more, favorable as the terms and conditions of the expiring leases. While we are working to identify and enter into leases with additional new tenants to replace Knotel, which filed for bankruptcy and terminated its leases with us in January 2021, and to increase the rental income at our properties through leasing activity, there can be no assurance we will be able to lease all or any portion of our currently vacant space at any property on acceptable or favorable terms, or at all. For example, annualized straight-line rent per square foot for certain leases, including the leases we have entered into to replace Knotel, are lower than the annualized straight-line rent per square foot under the previous leases. In addition, additional vacancies may occur at one or more of our properties due to a default by a tenant on its lease or expiration of a lease. Vacancies may reduce the value of a property as a result of reduced cash flow generated by the property. In addition, changes in space utilization by our tenants may impact our ability to renew or re-let space without the need to incur substantial costs in renovating or redesigning the internal configuration of the relevant property. If we are unable to promptly renew expiring leases or re-lease the space at similar rates or if we incur substantial costs in renewing or re-leasing the space, our cash flow could be adversely affected.

Our real properties are subject to real property taxes that may increase as tax rates change and as the real properties are assessed or reassessed by taxing authorities. We anticipate that certain of our leases will generally provide that the property taxes, or increases therein, are charged to the lessees as an expense related to the real properties that they occupy, while other leases will generally provide that we are responsible for such taxes. In any case, as the owner of the properties, we are ultimately responsible for payment of the taxes to the applicable government authorities. If real property taxes increase, lessees may be unable to make the required tax payments, ultimately requiring us to pay the taxes even if otherwise stated under the terms of the lease. If we fail to pay any such taxes, the applicable taxing authority may place a lien on the real property and the real property may be subject to a tax sale. In addition, we are generally responsible for real property taxes related to any vacant space.

Recent increases in the rate of inflation, both real and anticipated, may impact our investments and results of operations. Inflation could erode the value of long-term leases that do not contain indexed escalation provisions, or contain fixed annual rent escalation provisions that are at rates lower than the rate of inflation, and increase expenses including those that cannot be passed through under our leases. Actual increases or the perception of increases in inflation could also increase the amount we reimburse our Advisor for our general and administrative expenses and our mortgage interest costs. An increase in our expenses, or expenses paid or incurred by our Advisor or its affiliates that are reimbursed by us pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, or a failure of revenues to increase at least with inflation could adversely impact our results of operations. Most of our leases for properties contain fixed rental rate with annual escalation based upon fixed percentage increases while some are based on other measures. Approximately 82% of our leases with our tenants contain rent escalation provisions which increase the amount of cash rent due by an average of 0.4% per year. These provisions generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases either at fixed rates or other measures. Approximately 82% are fixed-rate, and 18% do not contain any escalation provisions. Inflation as measured by the consumer price index for all items as of December 31, 2024 as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, was 2.9%. If the rental rate increases continue to lag behind inflation, our net income and cash flow would be negatively impacted. Future leases may not even contain escalation provisions and these provisions may not be sufficient to protect our revenues or expenses from the adverse effects of inflation. In addition, increased operating costs paid by our tenants could have an adverse impact on them if increases in their operating expenses exceed increases in their revenue, which may adversely affect their ability to pay rent owed to us or property expenses to be paid, or reimbursed to us, by our tenants.

As of December 31, 2024, we were in breach of covenants under three separate mortgage loans aggregating $159.0 million in principal amount, which are secured by three of our properties: 1140 Avenue of the Americas, 400 E. 67th Street, and 8713 Fifth Avenue. These properties represented, in the aggregate, 33% of the total rentable square feet in our portfolio as of December 31, 2024. These breaches, which have been ongoing for several quarters are described in more detail elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (see Note 4 — Mortgage Notes Payable, Net to our 2024 Financial Statements for additional information) require us to hold any excess cash generated by the properties, if any, in a segregated account as additional collateral under the loans. We had $1.6 million, of cash maintained in segregated cash accounts, and classified as restricted cash on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, resulting from breaches of the mortgage loans secured by our 1140 Avenue of the Americas property. Cash held in these accounts is or was not otherwise available to us to fund operating expenses at our other properties and other capital requirements until the breaches have been cured. There was no cash maintained in segregated cash accounts for our 8713 Fifth Avenue property as of December 31, 2024 since this property had not generated excess cash after debt service. We were also informed by the applicable lender that we were in default under the loan agreements for two of our properties: 1140 Avenue of the Americas and 400 E. 67th Street (as described in the “Notice of Defaults” section in Item 7A. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources). While we disagree with the lenders and are contesting such notices, there can be no assurance that we will prevail or that the debt for each property will not be accelerated.

We have incurred indebtedness and expect that we will incur indebtedness in the future. Although none of our indebtedness is variable rate, to the extent that we incur variable rate debt not fixed by swap in the future, increases in interest rates would increase our interest costs, which could reduce our cash flows and our ability to use cash for other corporate purposes. The domestic and international commercial real estate debt markets are subject to volatility, resulting in, from time to time, the tightening of underwriting standards by lenders and credit rating agencies and reductions in the availability of financing. Beginning in early 2022, in response to significant and prolonged increases in inflation, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board raised interest rates eleven times during 2022 and 2023 and then paused rate increases in the fourth quarter of 2023 following the deceleration of inflationary growth. During that same period the European Central Bank and the Bank of England similarly raised interest rates and implemented fiscal policy interventions responsive to high levels of inflation and recession fears. The Federal Reserve Board cut interest rates in September 2024 and December 2024, and it may seek to further reduce interest rates, increase interest rates or maintain current interest rates. The timing, number and amount of any future interest rate changes are uncertain, and there can be no assurance that rates will continue to decrease at a rate currently predicted or at all, which would in turn negatively impact our borrowing costs. In addition, further increases in interest rates could make it more difficult for us to refinance our existing debt or require us to sell properties. Increases in interest rates would also impact new or refinanced fixed rate debt, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

Previous wording

Our success depends to a significant degree upon the contributions of our executive officers and other key personnel of our Advisor and its affiliates, including Michael Anderson, chief executive officer, and Michael LeSanto, our chief financial officer. Neither our Advisor nor any of its affiliates has an employment agreement with these key personnel and we cannot guarantee that all, or any particular one, will remain employed by our Advisor or one of its affiliates and otherwise available to continue to perform services for us. If any of our key personnel were to cease their affiliation with our Advisor or its affiliates, our operating results, business and prospects could suffer. Further, we do not maintain key person life insurance on any person. We believe that our success depends, in large part, upon the ability to our Advisor to hire, retain or contract for services or highly skilled managerial, operational and marketing personnel. We also depend on these key personnel to maintain relationships with firms that have special expertise in certain services or detailed knowledge regarding our investments and assets especially real properties located in the five boroughs of New York City, particularly in Manhattan. If our Advisor loses or is unable to obtain the services of skilled personnel due to an overall labor shortage, lack of skilled labor, increased turnover or labor inflation, our Advisor's ability to manage our business and implement our investment strategies could be delayed or hindered, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
