1.	ORGANIZATION

KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on October 8, 2008 as a Maryland corporation and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2010. The Company conducts its business primarily through KBS Strategic Opportunity Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed on December 10, 2008. The Company is the sole general partner of, and owns a 0.1% partnership interest in, the Operating Partnership. KBS Strategic Opportunity Holdings LLC (“REIT Holdings”), a Delaware limited liability company formed on December 9, 2008, owns the remaining 99.9% interest in the Operating Partnership and is its sole limited partner. The Company is the sole member and manager of REIT Holdings.

Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, the business of the Company is externally managed by KBS Capital Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”), an affiliate of the Company, pursuant to an advisory agreement the Company renewed with the Advisor on October 8, 2014 (the “Advisory Agreement”). The Advisor conducts the Company’s operations and manages its portfolio of real estate-related loans, opportunistic real estate, real estate-related debt securities and other real estate-related investments. The Advisor owns 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

On January 8, 2009, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to offer a minimum of 250,000 shares and a maximum of 140,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public (the “Offering”), of which 100,000,000 shares were registered in a primary offering and 40,000,000 shares were registered to be sold under the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan. The SEC declared the Company’s registration statement effective on November 20, 2009. The Company ceased offering shares of common stock in its primary offering on November 14, 2012 and continues to offer shares under its dividend reinvestment plan.

The Company sold 56,584,976 shares of common stock in its primary offering for gross offering proceeds of $561.7 million. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had sold 4,578,307 shares of common stock under its dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $46.1 million. Also, as of June 30, 2015, the Company had redeemed 1,257,347 shares sold in the Offering for $13.6 million. Additionally, on December 29, 2011 and October 23, 2012, the Company issued 220,994 shares and 55,249 shares of common stock, respectively, for $2.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in private transactions exempt from the registration requirements pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.


2.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies since it filed its audited financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. For further information about the Company’s accounting policies, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and condensed notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair and consistent presentation of the results for such periods. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Item 1. Financial Statements (continued)

KBS STRATEGIC OPPORTUNITY REIT, INC.

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

June 30, 2015

(unaudited)

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, REIT Holdings, the Operating Partnership and their direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, and joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of the prior period. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company sold one office property. As a result, certain assets and liabilities were reclassified to held for sale on the consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented.

Amended Share Redemption Program

On May 12, 2015, the Company’s board of directors adopted a fifth amended and restated share redemption program (the “Amended Share Redemption Program”). Pursuant to the Amended Share Redemption Program, all eligible shares will be redeemed at a price equal to the most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date, regardless of how long such shares have been held or whether shares are being redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence.” There were no other changes to the Amended Share Redemption Program. The Amended Share Redemption Program was effective June 13, 2015.

Amended Dividend Reinvestment Plan

On May 12, 2015, the Company’s board of directors adopted a fifth amended and restated dividend reinvestment plan (the “Amended Dividend Reinvestment Plan”). Pursuant to the Amended Dividend Reinvestment Plan, shares may be purchased at a price equal to the estimated value per share most recently announced in a public filing. There were no other changes to the Amended Dividend Reinvestment Plan. The Amended Dividend Reinvestment Plan was effective July 1, 2015.

Segments

The Company has invested in non-performing loans, opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets. In general, the Company intends to hold its investments in non-performing loans, opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets for capital appreciation. Traditional performance metrics of non-performing loans, opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets may not be meaningful as these investments are generally non-stabilized and do not provide a consistent stream of interest income or rental revenue. These investments exhibit similar long-term financial performance and have similar economic characteristics. These investments typically involve a higher degree of risk and do not provide a constant stream of ongoing cash flows. As a result, the Company’s management views non-performing loans, opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets as similar investments. Substantially all of its revenue and net income (loss) is from non-performing loans, opportunistic real estate and other real estate-related assets, and therefore, the Company currently aggregates its operating segments into one reportable business segment.

Per Share Data

Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock equals basic net income (loss) per share of common stock as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

Distributions declared per share were $0.093 and $0.186 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively and $0.056 and $0.105 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

ASU No. 2014-09 requires an entity to recognize the revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes the revenue requirements in Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. ASU No. 2014-09 does not apply to lease contracts within the scope of Leases (Topic 840). ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early application not permitted. On July 9, 2015, the FASB voted to defer the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. Early adoption is permitted but not before the original effective date. The Company is still evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2014-09 on its financial statements, but does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 to have a material impact on its financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU No. 2014-15”). The amendments in ASU No. 2014-15 require management to evaluate, for each annual and interim reporting period, whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or are available to be issued when applicable) and, if so, provide related disclosures. ASU No. 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2014-15 to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20), Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items (“ASU No. 2015-01”). The amendments in ASU No. 2015-01 eliminate from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. Although the amendments will eliminate the requirements in Subtopic 225-20 for reporting entities to consider whether an underlying event or transaction is extraordinary, the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature or occur infrequently will be retained and will be expanded to include items that are both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring. ASU No. 2015-01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2015-01 to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU No. 2015-02”), which amended the existing accounting standards for consolidation under both the variable interest model and the voting model. ASU No. 2015-02 modifies the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are VIEs or voting interest entities, eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership and affects the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships. ASU No. 2015-02 is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. A reporting entity may apply the amendments in ASU No. 2015-02 using: (a) a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption; or (b) by applying the amendments retrospectively. The Company is still evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2015-02 on its financial statements, but does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2015-02 to have a material impact on its financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU No. 2015-03”). The amendments in ASU No. 2015-03 require debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability, consistent with the presentation of a debt discount. ASU No. 2015-03 is limited to the presentation of debt issuance costs and does not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs. ASU No. 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015 and is to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The adoption of ASU No. 2015-03 would change the presentation of debt issuance costs, as the Company presents debt issuance costs as prepaid expenses and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Operating Leases

Certain of the Company’s real estate properties are leased to tenants under operating leases for which the terms and expirations vary. As of June 30, 2015, the leases, excluding options to extend and apartment leases, which have terms that are generally one year or less, had remaining terms of up to 12.8 years with a weighted-average remaining term of 3.7 years. Some of the leases have provisions to extend the lease agreements, options for early termination after paying a specified penalty, rights of first refusal to purchase the property at competitive market rates, and other terms and conditions as negotiated. The Company retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to tenants. Generally, upon the execution of a lease, the Company requires a security deposit from tenants in the form of a cash deposit and/or a letter of credit. The amount required as a security deposit varies depending upon the terms of the respective leases and the creditworthiness of the tenant, but generally are not significant amounts. Therefore, exposure to credit risk exists to the extent that a receivable from a tenant exceeds the amount of its security deposit. Security deposits received in cash and assumed in real estate acquisitions or foreclosures related to tenant leases are included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and totaled $5.0 million and $5.0 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized deferred rent from tenants of $2.7 million and $4.8 million, respectively, net of lease incentive amortization. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the cumulative deferred rent receivable balance, including unamortized lease incentive receivables, was $20.2 million and $16.8 million, respectively, and is included in rents and other receivables on the accompanying balance sheets. The cumulative deferred rent balance included $2.2 million and $1.6 million of unamortized lease incentives as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The Company records property operating expense reimbursements due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes, and other recoverable costs in the period the related expenses are incurred.

As of June 30, 2015, the future minimum rental income from the Company’s properties, excluding apartment leases, under non-cancelable operating leases was as follows (in thousands):



July 1, 2015 through December 31, 2015	$	36,641
2016	72,297
2017	63,659
2018	52,744
2019	40,069
Thereafter	82,382
	$	347,792

As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s commercial real estate properties were leased to approximately 500 tenants over a diverse range of industries and geographic areas. The Company’s highest tenant industry concentrations (greater than 10% of annualized base rent) were as follows:



Industry	Number of Tenants	Annualized Base Rent ⁽¹⁾ (in thousands)		Percentage of Annualized Base Rent
Finance	50	$	11,356	14.5	%
Computer System Design & Programming	44	10,216		13.0	%
Insurance Carriers & Related Activities	28	8,954		11.4	%
		$	30,526	38.9	%

_____________________

⁽¹⁾Annualized base rent represents annualized contractual base rental income as of June 30, 2015, adjusted to straight-line any contractual tenant concessions (including free rent), rent increases and rent decreases from the lease’s inception through the balance of the lease term.

No other tenant industries accounted for more than 10% of annualized base rent. No material tenant credit issues have been identified at this time.

Geographic Concentration Risk

As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s real estate investments in Washington and Texas represented 28.7% and 21.2% of the Company’s total assets, respectively. As a result, the geographic concentration of the Company’s portfolio makes it particularly susceptible to adverse economic developments in the Washington and Texas real estate markets. Any adverse economic or real estate developments in these markets, such as business layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, relocations of businesses, changing demographics and other factors, or any decrease in demand for office space resulting from the local business climate, could adversely affect the Company’s operating results and its ability to make distributions to stockholders.

Condemnation Agreements

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company received $5.7 million in proceeds from condemnation agreements. The carrying value of the condemned land was $0.8 million, resulting in a gain of $4.9 million (including amounts for noncontrolling interests of $1.2 million), which is included in other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Property Damage

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, 1800 West Loop suffered physical damages due to floods. The Company’s insurance policy provides coverage for property damage and business interruption subject to a deductible of up to $100,000 per incident. Based on management’s estimates, the Company recognized an estimated aggregate loss due to damages of $2.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015, which was reduced by $2.5 million of estimated insurance recoveries related to such damages, which the Company determined were probable of collection. The aggregate net loss due to damages of $0.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015 was classified as operating, maintenance and management expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and relates to the Company’s insurance deductible. Through June 30, 2015, the Company had not received insurance proceeds related to this incident. As of June 30, 2015, the total estimated insurance proceeds to be collected of $2.5 million were classified as prepaid expenses and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.


4.	TENANT ORIGINATION AND ABSORPTION COSTS, ABOVE-MARKET LEASE ASSETS AND BELOW-MARKET LEASE LIABILITIES

As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s tenant origination and absorption costs, above-market lease assets and below-market lease liabilities (excluding fully amortized assets and liabilities and accumulated amortization) were as follows (in thousands):



	Tenant Origination and Absorption Costs						Above-Market Lease Assets						Below-Market Lease Liabilities
	June 30, 2015			December 31, 2014			June 30, 2015			December 31, 2014			June 30, 2015			December 31, 2014

On June 30, 2015, the University House First Mortgage matured without repayment. As a result, on July 1, 2015, the Company provided noticed to the borrower of default and may commence foreclosure proceedings on, or otherwise take title to, the property securing the University House First Mortgage. The Company generally recognizes income on impaired loans on either a cash basis, where interest income is only recorded when received in cash, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts are applied against the carrying value of the loan. The Company will resume the accrual of interest if it determines the collection of interest according to the contractual terms of the loan is probable. The Company considers the collectibility or recoverability of the loan’s principal balance in determining whether to recognize income on impaired loans. With respect to the University House First Mortgage, the Company will continue to recognize interest income on an accrual basis, including the default interest rate of 16%, as the Company believes the recoverability of the outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued interest is probable. The Company did not record a provision for loan loss reserves during the six months ended June 30, 2015 or 2014.

The following summarizes the activity related to the real estate loan receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2015 (in thousands):

Results of operations from properties that were classified as held for sale in financial statements issued prior to January 1, 2014 will remain in discontinued operations on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2014-08, the operations of properties held for sale or to be disposed of and the aggregate net gains recognized upon their disposition were presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company disposed of one office property and no properties were classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2015.

8.	FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Under GAAP, the Company is required to measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, the Company is required to measure other financial instruments and balances at fair value on a non-recurring basis (e.g., carrying value of impaired real estate loans receivable and long-lived assets). Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:


•	Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;


•	Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and


•	Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The fair value for certain financial instruments is derived using valuation techniques that involve significant management judgment. The price transparency of financial instruments is a key determinant of the degree of judgment involved in determining the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. Financial instruments for which actively quoted prices or pricing parameters are available and for which markets contain orderly transactions will generally have a higher degree of price transparency than financial instruments for which markets are inactive or consist of non-orderly trades. The Company evaluates several factors when determining if a market is inactive or when market transactions are not orderly. The following is a summary of the methods and assumptions used by management in estimating the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the fair value:

Cash and cash equivalents, rent and other receivables, prepaid expenses and other assets and accounts payable and accrued liabilities: These balances approximate their fair values due to the short maturities of these items.

Real estate loan receivable: The Company’s real estate loan receivable is presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at its amortized cost net of recorded loan loss reserves and not at fair value. The fair value of real estate loan receivable was estimated using an internal valuation model that considers the expected cash flows for the loans, underlying collateral values (for collateral dependent loans) and estimated yield requirements of institutional investors for loans with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs.

Notes and bond payable: The fair values of the Company’s notes and bond payable are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s estimates of current market interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value ratio, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs.

The following were the face values, carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, which carrying amounts do not approximate the fair values (in thousands):



	June 30, 2015						December 31, 2014
	Face Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Face Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Financial assets:
Real estate loans receivable	$	27,850	$	27,850	$	27,850	$	27,850	$	27,422	$	27,813
Financial liabilities:
Notes and bond payable	$	539,928	$	539,964	$	542,757	$	530,238	$	530,263	$	534,045

Disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to the Company as of the period end and requires a significant amount of judgment. This has made the estimation of fair values difficult and, therefore, both the actual results and the Company’s estimate of value at a future date could be materially different.

9.	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Advisory Agreement entitles the Advisor to specified fees upon the provision of certain services with regard to the investment of funds in real estate and real estate-related investments and the disposition of real estate and real estate-related investments (including the discounted payoff of non-performing loans) among other services, as well as reimbursement of certain costs incurred by the Advisor in providing services to the Company. The Advisory Agreement may also entitle the Advisor to certain back-end cash flow participation fees. The Company also entered into a fee reimbursement agreement (the “AIP Reimbursement Agreement”) with KBS Capital Markets Group LLC, the dealer manager for the Company’s initial public offering (the “Dealer Manager”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to reimburse the Dealer Manager for certain fees and expenses it incurs for administering the Company’s participation in the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation Alternative Investment Product Platform with respect to certain accounts of the Company’s investors serviced through the platform. The Advisor and Dealer Manager also serve as the advisor and dealer manager, respectively, for KBS Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (“KBS REIT I”), KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. (“KBS REIT II”), KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc. (“KBS REIT III”), KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc. (“KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT”), KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT II, Inc. (“KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT II”) and KBS Growth & Income REIT, Inc. (“KBS Growth & Income REIT”).

On January 6, 2014, the Company, together with KBS REIT I, KBS REIT II, KBS REIT III, KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT II, the Dealer Manager, the Advisor and other KBS-affiliated entities, entered into an errors and omissions and directors and officers liability insurance program where the lower tiers of coverage are shared. The cost of these lower tiers is allocated by the Advisor and its insurance broker among each of the various entities covered by the plan, and is billed directly to each entity. The allocation of these shared coverage costs is proportionate to the pricing by the insurance marketplace for the first tiers of directors and officers liability coverage purchased individually by each REIT. The Advisor’s and the Dealer Manager’s portion of the shared lower tiers’ cost is proportionate to the respective entities’ prior cost for the errors and omissions insurance. In June 2015, KBS Growth & Income REIT was added to the insurance program at terms similar to those described above.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, no other business transactions occurred between the Company and these other KBS-sponsored programs.

⁽²⁾ Disposition fees with respect to real estate sold are included in the gain on sales of real estate in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.


10.	INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES

As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures were composed of the following (dollars in thousands):



				Investment Balance at
Joint Venture	Number of Properties	Location	Ownership %	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
NIP Joint Venture	23	Various	Less than 5.0%	$	5,305	$	5,305
110 William Joint Venture	1	New York, New York	60.0%	68,084		66,740
				$	73,389	$	72,045

Investment in National Industrial Portfolio Joint Venture

On May 18, 2012, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a joint venture (the “NIP Joint Venture”) with OCM NIP JV Holdings, L.P. and HC KBS NIP JV, LLC (“HC-KBS”). The NIP Joint Venture owns 23 industrial properties and a master lease with respect to another industrial property encompassing 11.4 million square feet. The Company made an initial capital contribution of $8.0 million which represents less than a 5.0% ownership interest in the NIP Joint Venture as of June 30, 2015. The Company has virtually no influence over the NIP Joint Venture’s operations, financial policies or decision making. Accordingly, the Company has accounted for its investment in the NIP Joint Venture under the cost method of accounting. Income, losses and distributions from the NIP Joint Venture are generally allocated among the members based on their respective equity interests.

KBS REIT I, an affiliate of the Advisor, is a member of HC-KBS and has a participation interest in certain future potential profits generated by the NIP Joint Venture. However, KBS REIT I does not have any equity interest in the NIP Joint Venture. None of the other joint venture partners are affiliated with the Company or the Advisor.

Investment in 110 William Joint Venture

On December 23, 2013, the Company, through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, entered into an agreement with SREF III 110 William JV, LLC (the “110 William JV Partner”) to form a joint venture (the “110 William Joint Venture”). On May 2, 2014, the 110 William Joint Venture acquired an office property containing 928,157 rentable square feet located on approximately 0.8 acres of land in New York, New York (“110 William Street”). At acquisition, 110 William Street was 97% leased to 33 tenants. Each of the Company and the 110 William JV Partner hold a 60% and 40% ownership interest in the 110 William Joint Venture, respectively. The Company exercises significant influence over the operations, financial policies and decision making with respect to the 110 William Joint Venture but significant decisions require approval from both members. Accordingly, the Company has accounted for its investment in the 110 William Joint Venture under the equity method of accounting. Income, losses, contributions and distributions are generally allocated based on the members’ respective equity interests.

As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the book value of the Company’s investment in the 110 William Joint Venture was $68.1 million and $66.7 million, respectively.

11.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Economic Dependency

The Company is dependent on the Advisor for certain services that are essential to the Company, including the identification, evaluation, negotiation, origination, acquisition and disposition of investments; management of the daily operations of the Company’s investment portfolio; and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that the Advisor is unable to provide these services, the Company will be required to obtain such services from other sources.

Environmental

As an owner of real estate, the Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state and local governments. Although there can be no assurance, the Company is not aware of any environmental liability that could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations as of June 30, 2015. However, changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations, the uses and conditions of properties in the vicinity of the Company’s properties, the activities of its tenants and other environmental conditions of which the Company is unaware with respect to the properties could result in future environmental liabilities.

Legal Matters

From time to time, the Company is a party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Management is not aware of any legal proceedings of which the outcome is probable or reasonably possible to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition, which would require accrual or disclosure of the contingency and the possible range of loss. Additionally, the Company has not recorded any loss contingencies related to legal proceedings in which the potential loss is deemed to be remote.

13.	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluates subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.

Distribution Declared

On August 6, 2015, the Company’s board of directors authorized a distribution in the amount of $0.09452055 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 21, 2015. The Company expects to pay this distribution on September 28, 2015. The board of directors will declare distributions from time to time based on the Company’s income, cash flow and investing and financing activities. As such, the Company can give no assurances as to the timing, amount or notice with respect to any future distribution declarations.

Sixth Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program

On July 27, 2015, the Company’s board of directors approved a sixth amended and restated share redemption program (the “Amended Share Redemption Program”). Pursuant to the Amended Share Redemption Program, the board of directors approved an additional $10.0 million of funds available for the redemption of shares for calendar year 2015. To the extent that the Company redeems less than the number of shares that the Company can purchase in calendar year 2015, any excess capacity to redeem shares during calendar year 2015 will be added to the Company’s capacity to otherwise redeem shares during calendar year 2016. There were no other material changes to the Amended Share Redemption Program. The Amended Share Redemption Program became effective on August 10, 2015, and as a result will be effective for redemptions made on the August 2015 redemption date, which is August 31, 2015. The board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the Amended Share Redemption Program for any reason upon 30 days’ notice to the Company’s stockholders. The Company may provide such notice by including such information in a Current Report on Form 8-K, a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or an Annual Report on Form 10-K, all publicly filed with the SEC, or by a separate mailing to its stockholders.

For a stockholder’s shares to be eligible for redemption in a given month or to withdraw a redemption request, the Company must receive a written notice from the stockholder or from an authorized representative of the stockholder in good order and on a form approved by the Company at least five business days before the redemption date, or by August 24, 2015 in the case of the August 31, 2015 redemption date.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. and the notes thereto. As used herein, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and, as required by context, KBS Strategic Opportunity Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership, which we refer to as the “Operating Partnership,” and to their subsidiaries.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “should” or similar expressions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law.

The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all of the risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:

•

We depend on tenants for our revenue and, accordingly, our revenue is dependent upon the success and economic viability of our tenants. Revenues from our property investments could decrease due to a reduction in tenants (caused by factors including, but not limited to, tenant defaults, tenant insolvency, early termination of tenant leases and non-renewal of existing tenant leases) and/or lower rental rates, limiting our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.


•	Our opportunistic investment strategy involves a higher risk of loss than would a strategy of investing in some other types of real estate and real estate-related investments.

•

We have paid distributions from financings and in the future we may not pay distributions solely from our cash flow from operations or gains from asset sales. To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations or gains from asset sales, we will have less funds available for investment in loans, properties and other assets, the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced and subsequent investors may experience dilution.

•

All of our executive officers and some of our directors and other key real estate and debt finance professionals are also officers, directors, managers, key professionals and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor, our dealer manager and other KBS-affiliated entities. As a result, they face conflicts of interest, including significant conflicts created by our advisor’s compensation arrangements with us and other KBS-advised programs and investors and conflicts in allocating time among us and these other programs and investors. These conflicts could result in unanticipated actions. Fees paid to our advisor in connection with transactions involving the origination, acquisition and management of our investments are based on the cost of the investment, not on the quality of the investment or services rendered to us. This arrangement could influence our advisor to recommend riskier transactions to us.


•	We pay substantial fees to and expenses of our advisor and its affiliates and, in connection with our initial public offering, we paid substantial fees to our dealer manager and participating broker-dealers. These payments increase the risk that our stockholders will not earn a profit on their investment in us and increase our stockholders’ risk of loss.

•

We cannot predict with any certainty how much, if any, of our dividend reinvestment plan proceeds will be available for general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, the redemption of shares under our share redemption program, future funding obligations under any real estate loans receivable we acquire the funding of capital expenditures on our real estate investments or the repayment of debt. If such funds are not available from the dividend reinvestment plan offering, then we may have to use a greater proportion of our cash flow from operations to meet these cash requirements, which would reduce cash available for distributions and could limit our ability to redeem shares under our share redemption program.

All forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risks identified in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Overview

We were formed on October 8, 2008 as a Maryland corporation, elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2010 and intend to operate in such manner. KBS Capital Advisors LLC (“KBS Capital Advisors”) is our advisor. As our advisor, KBS Capital Advisors manages our day-to-day operations and our portfolio of investments. KBS Capital Advisors also has the authority to make all of the decisions regarding our investments, subject to the limitations in our charter and the direction and oversight of our board of directors. KBS Capital Advisors will also provide asset-management, marketing, investor-relations and other administrative services on our behalf.

On January 8, 2009, we filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to offer a minimum of 250,000 shares and a maximum of 140,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public, of which 100,000,000 shares were registered in our primary offering and 40,000,000 shares were registered under our dividend reinvestment plan. We ceased offering shares of common stock in our primary offering on November 14, 2012. We sold 56,584,976 shares of common stock in the primary offering for gross offering proceeds of $561.7 million. We continue to offer shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan. As of June 30, 2015, we had sold 4,578,307 shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $46.1 million. Also as of June 30, 2015, we had redeemed 1,257,347 of the shares sold in our offering for $13.6 million. Additionally, on December 29, 2011 and October 23, 2012, we issued 220,994 shares and 55,249 shares of common stock, respectively, for $2.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in private transactions exempt from the registration requirements pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Market Outlook – Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets

The following discussion is based on management’s beliefs, observations and expectations with respect to the real estate and real estate finance markets.

The global capital markets remain volatile as the world’s economic growth has been affected by geopolitical and economic events in Europe, the Middle East and Asia throughout the summer of 2015, such as the Greek sovereign debt crisis and the fall of the Chinese stock markets. The rise of the Islamic State and the struggle between the Ukrainian government and pro-Russian rebels have kept the U.S. and its allies engaged in international conflicts. The slowdown in global economic growth, and in particular the slowing of the Chinese economy, has had a ripple effect through the energy and commodity markets. Decreasing demand for commodities and in particular oil, has led to a steep price decline in most commodity market prices which has, in turn, threatened the economies of commodity dependent nations. In the United States, the Federal Reserve seeks to normalize interest rates with the anticipated increase in rates in 2015. In this type of economic environment the level of uncertainty and volatility has increased. While the U.S. economy has rebounded from the recent recession, the remainder of the world’s industrialized and emerging economies have struggled to maintain even low levels of economic growth.

Central bank interventions continue to bolster the global economy. In 2012, Japan embarked on a massive quantitative easing (“QE”) program designed to kickstart its economy. To date, the program has led to lower Japanese interest rates, a run up in the Japanese stock markets and a devaluation of the yen. In Europe, the European Central Bank (ECB) announced its own QE program in January 2015. The long awaited announcement has led to lower European interest rates and a weakening of the Euro against other currencies. In China, the central government has struggled to control its shadow banking system. Recent crackdowns on corruption and the intervention of the government into the country's falling stock market have increased the level of investor uncertainty.

The Federal Reserve has maintained an accommodative monetary policy since the beginning of the 2008 financial crisis. Through a variety of monetary tools and programs, the Federal Reserve injected trillions of U.S. dollars into the global financial markets. The U.S. QE program focused on the purchase of U.S. treasury bonds and mortgage backed securities. In October 2014, the Federal Reserve concluded the most recent phase of QE. The end of this program shifted investor focus to the timing of an eventual interest rate increase by the Federal Reserve. While it is unclear whether such an increase will happen in 2015 or 2016, it now appears likely that an increase is in the Federal Reserve's plans.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

In the United States, recent economic data has shown moderate economic growth. The labor force participation rate continues to be low and personal income growth has remained stagnant. However, slow and steady growth in the labor markets has driven unemployment down to 5.3% as of June 2015. Consumer spending in the United States has increased, and is being driven by lower debt service burdens, record high stock market valuations, rebounding home prices and a dramatic decrease in the cost of gasoline. Consumer confidence levels are starting to reach levels last seen in the 1990s. U.S. gross domestic product (“U.S. GDP”) has continued to grow at a moderate annualized rate. On an annual basis, U.S. GDP growth in 2014 was 2.4%, which was an improvement over 2013’s growth rate of 1.5%. In the second half of 2014, the U.S. dollar began to appreciate against the currencies of other nations. However, the effects of a strong dollar and weak international economic growth began to materialize in the form of reduced corporate earnings in the fourth quarter of 2014. This trend continued in the first quarter of 2015, where U.S. GDP increased at an annual rate of 0.6%.

The U.S. dollar has remained a safe haven currency and the U.S. commercial real estate market has benefited from an inflow of foreign capital. Initially, gateway markets such as New York City and San Francisco benefited from a high demand for commercial properties. In 2014, the commercial real estate market recovery spread to secondary and tertiary markets, and most asset classes. The U.S. commercial real estate market has gained favor as an alternative investment class and capital flows continue to improve. In 2015, commercial property values have continued to rise and the U.S. commercial real estate market is currently on pace to set a record in transaction volume. However, the recovery in commercial real estate is expected to remain uneven across geographies and among property types.

As the dollar strengthens, the flow of capital into the United States could be curtailed. International demand for U.S. assets has been driven, in part, by the perception that U.S. real assets and the U.S. dollar are safe havens from some market risks. A decrease in flow of capital into the United States could lead to a decrease in the demand for U.S. commercial real estate assets, and result in a decline in commercial real estate values.

After several years of improving market conditions, the recovery in the U.S. residential real estate market has slowed. The initial recovery was driven by low interest rates, pent-up demand from the consumer sector and institutional investors in the form of buy-to-rent portfolios. In 2015, investor demand for homes has slowed and the housing market appears to be heading into a consolidation phase as several institutional investors seek an exit to repay investors. All cash purchases of homes, an indicator of institutional investor activity, has dropped dramatically. New home construction numbers have been driven largely by the construction of multifamily projects.

Overall, despite indications of recovery in the United States, uncertainties abound. China’s export-based economy has slowed and the Japanese government continues to experiment with QE. The EU is faced with the economic collapse of Greece, another recession and military conflict in the Ukraine. In the United States, the Federal Reserve completed the latest phase of QE in 2014 and is now faced with the impact of a strong dollar and the anticipation of increasing interest rates. In the short-term, we anticipate that market conditions will continue to remain strong and volatile. When combined with a challenging global macro-economic environment, these conditions may interfere with the implementation of our business strategy and/or force us to modify it.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal demand for funds during the short and long-term is and will be for the payment of operating expenses, capital expenditures and general and administrative expenses; payments under debt obligations; redemptions of common stock; and payments of distributions to stockholders. To date, we have had five primary sources of capital for meeting our cash requirements:


•	Proceeds from the primary portion of our initial public offering;


•	Proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan;


•	Debt financing;


•	Proceeds from the sale of real estate and the repayment of real estate-related investments; and


•	Cash flow generated by our real estate and real estate-related investments.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

We sold 56,584,976 shares of common stock in the primary portion of our initial public offering for gross offering proceeds of $561.7 million. We ceased offering shares in the primary portion of our initial public offering on November 14, 2012. We continue to offer shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan. As of June 30, 2015, we had sold 4,578,307 shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $46.1 million. To date, we have invested substantially all of the net proceeds from our initial public offering in real estate and real estate-related investments. We intend to use our cash on hand, proceeds from debt financing, cash flow generated by our real estate operations and real estate-related investments, proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan and principal repayments on our real estate loans receivable as our primary sources of immediate and long-term liquidity.

Our investments in real estate generate cash flow in the form of rental revenues and tenant reimbursements, which are reduced by operating expenditures and corporate general and administrative expenses. Cash flow from operations from our real estate investments is primarily dependent upon the occupancy levels of our properties, the net effective rental rates on our leases, the collectibility of rent and operating recoveries from our tenants and how well we manage our expenditures. As of June 30, 2015, our office and retail properties were collectively 82% occupied and our apartment properties were collectively 91% occupied.

Investments in real estate-related loans generate cash flow in the form of interest income, which are reduced by loan service fees, asset management fees and corporate general and administrative expenses. As of June 30, 2015, we had one real estate loan receivable outstanding with a total book value of $27.9 million. On June 30, 2015, this loan matured without repayment. On July 1, 2015, we provided notice to the borrower of default and may commence foreclosure proceedings on, or otherwise take title to, the property securing the loan.

As of June 30, 2015, we had outstanding debt obligations in the aggregate principal amount of $539.9 million, with a weighted average remaining term of 2.5 years. As of June 30, 2015, we had $29.5 million of unrestricted secured revolving debt available for future disbursements under a portfolio loan facility, subject to certain conditions set forth in the loan agreement.

Under our charter, we are required to limit our total operating expenses to the greater of 2% of our average invested assets or 25% of our net income for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters, as these terms are defined in our charter, unless the Conflicts Committee has determined that such excess expenses were justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors. Operating expense reimbursements for the four fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2015 did not exceed the charter imposed limitation.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, our cash needs for capital expenditures, redemptions of common stock and debt servicing were met with proceeds from debt financing, proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan and cash on hand. Operating cash needs during the same period were met through cash flow generated by our real estate and real estate-related investments and cash on hand.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

As of June 30, 2015, we owned 11 office properties, one office campus consisting of nine office buildings, one office portfolio consisting of four office buildings and 63 acres of undeveloped land, one office portfolio consisting of three office properties, one retail property, two apartment properties, two investments in undeveloped land encompassing an aggregate of 1,670 acres, one first mortgage loan and two investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, net cash provided by operating activities was $12.2 million. We expect that our cash flows from operating activities will increase in future years as a result of leasing additional space that is currently unoccupied. However, our cash flows from operating activities may decrease to the extent that we dispose of assets.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and primarily consisted of the following:


•	Improvements to real estate of $17.6 million;


•	Proceeds from the sale of real estate of $15.7 million;


•	Proceeds from condemnation agreements of $5.7 million;


•	Investment in an unconsolidated joint venture of $1.7 million; and


•	Insurance proceeds of $0.3 million.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and consisted primarily of the following:


•	$9.7 million of net cash provided by debt and other financings as a result of proceeds from notes payable of $39.7 million, partially offset by principal payments on notes payable of $30.0 million;


•	$5.3 million of cash used for redemptions of common stock;


•	$4.2 million of net cash distributions to stockholders, after giving effect to distributions reinvested by stockholders of $6.9 million; and


•	$3.7 million of net distributions to noncontrolling interests.

In order to execute our investment strategy, we utilize secured debt and we may, to the extent available, utilize unsecured debt to finance a portion of our investment portfolio. Management remains vigilant in monitoring the risks inherent with the use of debt in our portfolio and is taking actions to ensure that these risks, including refinancing and interest risks, are properly balanced with the benefit of using leverage. There is no limitation on the amount we may borrow for any single investment. Our charter limits our total liabilities such that our total liabilities may not exceed 75% of the cost of our tangible assets; however, we may exceed that limit if a majority of the Conflicts Committee approves each borrowing in excess of our charter limitation and we disclose such borrowing to our common stockholders in our next quarterly report with an explanation from the conflicts committee of the justification for the excess borrowing. As of June 30, 2015, our borrowings and other liabilities were approximately 53% of the cost (before depreciation or other noncash reserves) and book value (before depreciation) of our tangible assets.

In addition to making investments in accordance with our investment objectives, we use or have used our capital resources to make certain payments to our advisor and our dealer manager. During our offering stage, these payments included payments to our dealer manager for selling commissions and dealer manager fees related to sales in our primary offering and payments to our dealer manager and our advisor for reimbursement of certain organization and other offering expenses related both to the primary offering and the dividend reinvestment plan. During our acquisition and development stage, we made payments to our advisor in connection with the selection and origination or purchase of investments, the management of our assets and costs incurred by our advisor in providing services to us as well as for any dispositions of assets (including the discounted payoff of non-performing loans).

The advisory agreement has a one-year term but may be renewed for an unlimited number of successive one-year periods upon the mutual consent of our advisor and our conflicts committee.

Among the fees payable to our advisor is an asset management fee. With respect to investments in loans and any investments other than real property, the asset management fee is a monthly fee calculated, each month, as one-twelfth of 0.75% of the lesser of (i) the amount actually paid or allocated to acquire or fund the loan or other investment, inclusive of fees and expenses related thereto and the amount of any debt associated with or used to acquire or fund such investment and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of such loan or other investment, plus the fees and expenses related to the acquisition or funding of such investment, as of the time of calculation. With respect to investments in real property, the asset management fee is a monthly fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.75% of the sum of the amount paid or allocated to acquire the investment, plus the cost of any subsequent development, construction or improvements to the property, and inclusive of fees and expenses related thereto and the amount of any debt associated with or used to acquire such investment. In the case of investments made through joint ventures, the asset management fee will be determined based on our proportionate share of the underlying investment, inclusive of our proportionate share of any fees and expenses related thereto.

_____________________

⁽¹⁾ Amounts include principal payments only.

⁽²⁾ Projected interest payments are based on the outstanding principal amounts and interest rates in effect at June 30, 2015. We incurred interest expense of $7.2 million, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs of $1.5 million and including interest capitalized of $1.0 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Results of Operations

Overview

As June 30, 2014, we owned 13 office properties, one office campus consisting of nine office buildings, one office portfolio consisting of four office buildings and 43 acres of undeveloped land, one office portfolio consisting of three office properties, one retail property, two apartment properties, two investments in undeveloped land encompassing an aggregate of 1,670 acres, one first mortgage loan and two investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. As of June 30, 2015, we owned 11 office properties, one office campus consisting of nine office buildings, one office portfolio consisting of four office buildings and 63 acres of undeveloped land, one office portfolio consisting of three office properties, one retail property, two apartment properties, two investments in undeveloped land encompassing an aggregate of 1,670 acres, one first mortgage loan and two investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. Our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 may not be indicative of those in future periods as the occupancy in our properties has not been stabilized. As of June 30, 2015, our office and retail properties were collectively 82% occupied and our apartment properties were collectively 91% occupied. However, due to the short outstanding weighted-average lease term in the portfolio of less than four years, we do not put significant emphasis on quarterly changes in occupancy (positive or negative) in the short run. Our underwriting and valuations are generally more sensitive to “terminal values” that may be realized upon the disposition of the assets in the portfolio and less sensitive to ongoing cash flows generated by the portfolio in the years leading up to an eventual sale. There are no guarantees that occupancies of our assets will increase, or that we will recognize a gain on the sale of our assets. We funded the acquisitions of these investments with proceeds from our initial public offering and debt financing. In general, we expect that our income and expenses related to our portfolio will increase in future periods as a result of leasing additional space but decrease due to disposition activity.

⁽¹⁾ Represents the dollar amount increase (decrease) for the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014 related to real estate and real estate-related investments acquired, originated, repaid or disposed on or after April 1, 2014.

⁽²⁾ Represents the dollar amount increase (decrease) for the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014 with respect to real estate and real estate-related investments owned by us during the entire periods presented.

Rental income and tenant reimbursements increased from $20.9 million and $3.8 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 to $22.1 million and $4.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, primarily as a result of a slight increase in occupancy and average rental rates related to properties held throughout both periods, partially offset by a decrease due to the dispositions of real estate properties. We expect rental income and tenant reimbursements to increase in future periods as a result of leasing additional space but to decrease to the extent we dispose of properties.

Interest income from our real estate loan receivable, recognized using the interest method, increased from $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 primarily due to an increase in outstanding principal balance under our real estate loan receivable. Our interest income in future periods will decrease upon any principal repayment on our real estate loan receivable or increase as a result of any additional fundings. On June 30, 2015, our real estate loan receivable matured without repayment. On July 1, 2015, we provided notice to the borrower of default and may commence foreclosure proceedings on, or otherwise take title to, the property securing this loan.

Property operating costs and real estate taxes and insurance increased from $8.6 million and $3.4 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 to $9.0 million and $3.8 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, due to increases in occupancy and inflation partially offset by a decrease due to dispositions. We expect property operating costs and real estate taxes and insurance to increase in future periods as a result of increasing occupancy of our real estate assets and inflation but to decrease to the extent we dispose of properties.

Asset management fees increased from $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as a result of the growth in our investment portfolio and capital improvements, which increased the asset basis used to calculate asset management fees. We expect asset management fees to increase in future periods as a result of capital expenditures but to decrease to the extent we dispose of properties. All asset management fees incurred as of June 30, 2015 have been paid.

Depreciation and amortization decreased from $11.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 to $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, primarily due to a decrease in amortization of tenant origination and absorption costs for properties held throughout both periods. We expect depreciation and amortization to decrease in future periods as a result of a decrease in amortization of tenant origination costs related to lease expirations.

Interest expense decreased from $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 to $3.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, primarily due to the refinancing of certain debt resulting in an overall decrease in average interest rates. Excluded from interest expense was $0.5 million of interest capitalized to our investments in undeveloped land during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. Our interest expense in future periods will vary based on interest rate fluctuations, the amount of interest capitalized and our level of future borrowings, which will depend on the availability and cost of debt financing and the opportunity to acquire real estate and real estate-related investments meeting our investment objectives.

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, we received $5.7 million in condemnation agreements. The carrying value of the condemned land was $0.8 million, resulting in a gain of $4.9 million, which is included in other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

⁽¹⁾ Represents the dollar amount increase (decrease) for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014 related to real estate and real estate-related investments acquired, originated, repaid or disposed on or after January 1, 2014.

⁽²⁾ Represents the dollar amount increase (decrease) for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014 with respect to real estate and real estate-related investments owned by us during the entire periods presented.

Rental income and tenant reimbursements increased from $40.4 million and $7.6 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 to $44.0 million and $9.1 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2015, primarily as a result of a slight increase in occupancy and average rental rates related to properties held throughout both periods and the growth in our real estate portfolio, partially offset by a decrease due to dispositions of real estate properties. We expect rental income and tenant reimbursements to increase in future periods as a result of leasing additional space but to decrease to the extent we dispose of properties.

Interest income from our real estate loan receivable, recognized using the interest method, increased from $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 to $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 primarily due to an increase in outstanding principal balance under the University House First Mortgage. Our interest income in future periods will decrease upon any principal repayment on our real estate loan receivable or increase as a result of any additional fundings. On June 30, 2015, our real estate loan receivable matured without repayment. On July 1, 2015, we provided notice to the borrower of default and may commence foreclosure proceedings on, or otherwise take title to, the property securing this loan.

Property operating costs and real estate taxes and insurance increased from $17.3 million and $6.9 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 to $17.9 million and $7.5 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2015, primarily as a result of the growth in our real estate portfolio and inflation. We expect property operating costs and real estate taxes and insurance to increase in future periods as a result of increasing occupancy of our real estate assets and inflation but to decrease to the extent we dispose of properties.

Asset management fees increased from $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 to $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as a result of the growth in our investment portfolio and capital improvements, which increased the asset basis used to calculate asset management fees. We expect asset management fees to increase in future periods as a result of capital expenditures but to decrease to the extent we dispose of properties. All asset management fees incurred as of June 30, 2015 have been paid.

Real estate acquisition fees and expenses to affiliates and non-affiliates were $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. We did not expense any real estate acquisition fees and expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2015. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2014, we capitalized $1.6 million in acquisition fees and expenses related to our investment in an unconsolidated joint venture. We do not expect to incur significant real estate acquisition fees and expenses in future periods as we do not expect to make further acquisitions.

Depreciation and amortization decreased from $23.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 to $22.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, primarily due to a decrease in amortization of tenant origination and absorption costs for properties held throughout both periods and partially offset by an increase due to the growth of our real estate portfolio. We expect depreciation and amortization to decrease in future periods as a result of a decrease in amortization of tenant origination costs related to lease expirations.

Interest expense decreased from $8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 to $7.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, primarily due to the refinancing of certain debt resulting in an overall decrease in average interest rates. Excluded from interest expense was $1.0 million of interest capitalized to our investments in undeveloped land during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. Our interest expense in future periods will vary based on interest rate fluctuations, the amount of interest capitalized and our level of future borrowings, which will depend on the availability and cost of debt financing and the opportunity to acquire real estate and real estate-related investments meeting our investment objectives.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we received $5.7 million in condemnation agreements. The carrying value of the condemned land was $0.8 million, resulting in a gain of $4.9 million, which is included in other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we sold one office property that resulted in a gain on sale of $8.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we did not dispose of any properties.

Funds from Operations, Modified Funds from Operations and Adjusted Modified Funds from Operations

We believe that funds from operations (“FFO”) is a beneficial indicator of the performance of an equity REIT. We compute FFO in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. FFO represents net income, excluding gains and losses from sales of operating real estate assets (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates), impairment losses on real estate assets, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We believe FFO facilitates comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other REITs. However, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to other REITs that do not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do. Our management believes that historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. As a result, we believe that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our competitors and provides a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Changes in accounting rules have resulted in a substantial increase in the number of non-operating and non-cash items included in the calculation of FFO. Items such as acquisition fees and expenses, which had previously been capitalized prior to 2009, are currently expensed and accounted for as operating expenses. As a result, our management also uses modified funds from operations (“MFFO”) as an indicator of our ongoing performance as well as our dividend sustainability. MFFO excludes from FFO: acquisition fees and expenses; adjustments related to contingent purchase price obligations; amounts relating to straight-line rents and amortization of above- and below-market intangible lease assets and liabilities; accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; amortization of closing costs relating to debt investments; impairments of real estate-related investments; mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; and gains or losses included in net income for the extinguishment or sale of debt or hedges. We compute MFFO in accordance with the definition of MFFO included in the practice guideline issued by the Investment Program Association (“IPA”) in November 2010 as interpreted by management. Our computation of MFFO may not be comparable to other REITs that do not compute MFFO in accordance with the current IPA definition or that interpret the current IPA definition differently than we do.

In addition, our management uses an adjusted MFFO (“Adjusted MFFO”) as an indicator of our ongoing performance as well as our dividend sustainability. Adjusted MFFO provides adjustments to reduce MFFO related to operating expenses that are capitalized with respect to certain of our investments in undeveloped land.

We believe that MFFO and Adjusted MFFO are helpful as measures of ongoing operating performance because they exclude costs that management considers more reflective of investing activities and other non-operating items included in FFO. Management believes that excluding acquisition costs from MFFO and Adjusted MFFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with management’s analysis of the operating performance of the portfolio over time, including periods after our acquisition stage. MFFO and Adjusted MFFO also exclude non-cash items such as straight-line rental revenue. Additionally, we believe that MFFO and Adjusted MFFO provide investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance indicators and analysis used by management, in addition to net income and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, to evaluate the sustainability of our operating performance. MFFO provides comparability in evaluating the operating performance of our portfolio with other non-traded REITs which typically have limited lives with short and defined acquisition periods and targeted exit strategies. MFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by non-traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes.

FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO are non-GAAP financial measures and do not represent net income as defined by GAAP. Net income as defined by GAAP is the most relevant measure in determining our operating performance because FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO include adjustments that investors may deem subjective, such as adding back expenses such as depreciation and amortization and the other items described above. Accordingly, FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indicator of our current and historical operating performance. In addition, FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO do not represent cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an indication of our liquidity. We believe FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO, in addition to net income and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, are meaningful supplemental performance measures.

Although MFFO includes other adjustments, the exclusion of straight-line rent, the amortization of above- and below-market leases, the amortization of discounts and closing costs, acquisition fees and expenses and prepayment fees related to the extinguishment of debt are the most significant adjustments for the periods presented. We have excluded these items based on the following economic considerations:

•

Adjustments for straight-line rent. These are adjustments to rental revenue as required by GAAP to recognize contractual lease payments on a straight-line basis over the life of the respective lease. We have excluded these adjustments in our calculation of MFFO to more appropriately reflect the current economic impact of our in-place leases, while also providing investors with a useful supplemental metric that addresses core operating performance by removing rent we expect to receive in a future period or rent that was received in a prior period;

•

Amortization of above- and below-market leases. Similar to depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and lease related costs that are excluded from FFO, GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of intangible lease assets and liabilities diminishes predictably over time and requires that these charges be recognized currently in revenue. Since market lease rates in the aggregate have historically risen or fallen with local market conditions, management believes that by excluding these charges, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized economics of the real estate;

Table of Contents

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

•

Amortization of discounts and closing costs. Discounts and closing costs related to debt investments are amortized over the term of the loan as an adjustment to interest income. This application results in income recognition that is different than the underlying contractual terms of the debt investments. We have excluded the amortization of discounts and closing costs related to our debt investments in our calculation of MFFO to more appropriately reflect the economic impact of our debt investments, as discounts will not be economically recognized until the loan is repaid and closing costs are essentially the same as acquisition fees and expenses on real estate (discussed below). We believe excluding these items provides investors with a useful supplemental metric that directly addresses core operating performance;

•

Acquisition fees and expenses. Acquisition fees and expenses related to the acquisition of real estate are expensed. Although these amounts reduce net income, we exclude them from MFFO to more appropriately present the ongoing operating performance of our real estate investments on a comparative basis. Additionally, acquisition costs have been funded from the proceeds from our now terminated initial public offering and debt financings and not from our operations. We believe this exclusion is useful to investors as it allows investors to more accurately evaluate the sustainability of our operating performance; and

•

Prepayment fees related to the extinguishment of debt. Prepayment fees related to the extinguishment of debt are generally included in interest expense. Although these amounts reduce net income, we exclude them from MFFO to more appropriately present the ongoing operating performance of our real estate investments on a comparative basis, as we do not believe that the infrequent payment of such fees is reflective of the ongoing operations of our portfolio of real estate investments.

Adjusted MFFO includes adjustments to reduce MFFO related to real estate taxes, property insurance and financing costs which are capitalized with respect to certain of our investments in undeveloped land. We have included adjustments for the costs incurred necessary to bring these investments to their intended use, as these costs are recurring operating costs that are capitalized in accordance with GAAP and not reflected in our net income (loss), FFO and MFFO.

FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO may also be used to fund all or a portion of certain capitalizable items that are excluded from FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO, such as tenant improvements, building improvements and deferred leasing costs. We expect FFO, MFFO and Adjusted MFFO to improve in future periods as a result of leasing additional space in our real estate assets.

Distributions

Distributions declared, distributions paid and cash flows from operations were as follows for the first and second quarters of 2015 (in thousands, except per share amounts):



	Distribution Declared		Distributions Declared Per Share		Distributions Paid						Cash Flows Provided by Operations
Period	Distribution Declared		Distributions Declared Per Share		Cash		Reinvested		Total		Cash Flows Provided by Operations
First Quarter 2015	$	5,547	$	0.092	$	2,087	$	3,460	$	5,547	$	2,792

On March 5, 2015, our board of directors authorized a distribution in the amount of $0.09246575 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 20, 2015. We paid this distribution on March 26, 2015 and this was the only distribution declared and paid during the first quarter of 2015.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

On May 12, 2015, our board of directors authorized a distribution in the amount of $0.09349315 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 18, 2015. We paid this distribution on June 25, 2015 and this was the only distribution declared and paid during the second quarter of 2015.

Our net income attributable to common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $3.8 million and our cash flows provided by operations were $12.2 million. Our cumulative distributions paid and net loss attributable to common stockholders from inception through June 30, 2015 were $71.8 million and $27.3 million, respectively. We have funded our cumulative distributions, which includes net cash distributions and distributions reinvested by stockholders, with proceeds from debt financing of $18.7 million, proceeds from the dispositions of property of $13.7 million and cash provided by operations of $39.4 million. To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations or gains from asset sales, we will have fewer funds available for investment in real estate-related loans, opportunistic real estate, real estate-related debt securities and other real estate-related investments, the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced and subsequent investors may experience dilution.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of our financial statements requires significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. A discussion of the accounting policies that management considers critical in that they involve significant management judgments, assumptions and estimates is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC. There have been no significant changes to our policies during 2015.

Subsequent Events

We evaluate subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.

Distribution Declared

On August 6, 2015, our board of directors authorized a distribution in the amount of $0.09452055 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 21, 2015. We expect to pay this distribution on September 28, 2015. The board of directors will declare distributions from time to time based on our income, cash flow and investing and financing activities. As such, we can give no assurances as to the timing, amount or notice with respect to any future distribution declarations.

Sixth Amended and Restated Share Redemption Program

On July 27, 2015, our board of directors approved a sixth amended and restated share redemption program (the “Amended Share Redemption Program”). Pursuant to the Amended Share Redemption Program, the board of directors approved an additional $10.0 million of funds available for the redemption of shares for calendar year 2015. To the extent that we redeem less than the number of shares that we can purchase in calendar year 2015, any excess capacity to redeem shares during calendar year 2015 will be added to our capacity to otherwise redeem shares during calendar year 2016. There were no other material changes to the Amended Share Redemption Program. The Amended Share Redemption Program became effective on August 10, 2015, and as a result will be effective for redemptions made on the August 2015 redemption date, which is August 31, 2015. The board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the Amended Share Redemption Program for any reason upon 30 days’ notice to our stockholders. We may provide such notice by including such information in a Current Report on Form 8-K, a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or an Annual Report on Form 10-K, all publicly filed with the SEC, or by a separate mailing to its stockholders.

For a stockholder’s shares to be eligible for redemption in a given month or to withdraw a redemption request, we must receive a written notice from the stockholder or from an authorized representative of the stockholder in good order and on a form approved by us at least five business days before the redemption date, or by August 24, 2015 in the case of the August 31, 2015 redemption date.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes as a result of borrowings used to maintain liquidity, fund distributions and to fund the refinancing of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. We may also be exposed to the effects of changes in interest rates as a result of the acquisition and origination of mortgage, mezzanine, bridge and other loans and the acquisition of real estate securities. Our profitability and the value of our investment portfolio may be adversely affected during any period as a result of interest rate changes. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. We may manage interest rate risk by maintaining a ratio of fixed rate, long-term debt such that floating rate exposure is kept at an acceptable level. In addition, we may utilize a variety of financial instruments, including interest rate caps, floors, and swap agreements, in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our operations. When we use these types of derivatives to hedge the risk of interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, we may be subject to certain risks, including the risk that losses on a hedge position will reduce the funds available for payments to holders of our common stock and that the losses may exceed the amount we invested in the instruments.

We borrow funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows on our fixed rate debt unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated. However, interest rate changes will affect the fair value of our fixed rate instruments. As of June 30, 2015, the fair value and the carrying value of our fixed rate real estate loan receivable was $27.9 million. The fair value estimate of our fixed rate real estate loan receivable was estimated using an internal valuation model that considers the expected cash flows for the loans, underlying collateral values (for collateral-dependent loans) and the estimated yield requirements of institutional investors for loans with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. As of June 30, 2015, the fair value of our fixed rate debt was $34.9 million and the carrying value of our fixed rate debt was $32.5 million. The fair value estimate of our fixed rate debt was calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing rates we would expect to pay for debt of a similar type and remaining maturity if the loans were originated as of June 30, 2015. As we expect to hold our fixed rate instruments to maturity and the amounts due under such instruments would be limited to the outstanding principal balance and any accrued and unpaid interest, we do not expect that fluctuations in interest rates, and the resulting changes in fair value of our fixed rate instruments, would have a significant impact on our operations.

Conversely, movements in interest rates on variable rate debt and loans receivable would change our future earnings and cash flows, but would not significantly affect the fair value of those instruments. However, changes in required risk premiums would result in changes in the fair value of floating rate instruments. As of June 30, 2015, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $507.4 million of variable rate debt outstanding. Based on interest rates as of June 30, 2015, if interest rates were 100 basis points higher during the 12 months ending June 30, 2016, interest expense on our variable rate debt would increase by $5.0 million. As of June 30, 2015, one-month LIBOR was 0.18650% and if the LIBOR index was reduced to 0% during the 12 months ending June 30, 2016, interest expense on our variable rate debt would decrease by $0.8 million.

The weighted-average interest rates of our fixed rate debt and variable rate debt as of June 30, 2015 were 4.5% and 2.3%, respectively. The annual effective interest rate of our fixed rate real estate loan receivable as of June 30, 2015 was 14.2%. The annual effective interest rate represents the effective interest rate as of June 30, 2015, using the interest method that we use to recognize interest income on our real estate loans receivable.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds


a)	During the period covered by this Form 10-Q, we did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933.


b)	Not applicable.


c)	We have adopted a share redemption program that may enable stockholders to sell their shares to us in limited circumstances.

Pursuant to the share redemption program there are several limitations on our ability to redeem shares:


•	Unless the shares are being redeemed in connection with a stockholder's death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” (each as defined under the share redemption program), we may not redeem shares until the stockholder has held the shares for one year.

•

During 2015, redemptions are limited to the amount of net proceeds from the sale of shares under our dividend reinvestment plan during 2014 plus an additional $10.0 million. The last $1.0 million of net proceeds from the dividend reinvestment plan during 2014 shall be reserved exclusively for shares redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence” (except that we may increase or decrease this funding limit by providing ten business days’ notice to our stockholders)


•	During any calendar year, we may redeem no more than 5% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year.


•	We have no obligation to redeem shares if the redemption would violate the restrictions on distributions under Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency.

We may amend, suspend or terminate the program upon 30 days’ notice to our stockholders. We may provide this notice by including such information in a Current Report on Form 8-K or in our annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the SEC, or by a separate mailing to our stockholders.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds (continued)

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we fulfilled redemption requests and redeemed shares pursuant to the share redemption program as follows:



Month	Total Number of Shares Redeemed	Average Price Paid Per Share⁽¹⁾		Approximate Dollar Value of Shares Available That May Yet Be Redeemed Under the Program
January 2015	22,221	$	11.78	⁽²⁾
February 2015	33,001	$	11.78	⁽²⁾
March 2015	42,961	$	11.92	⁽²⁾
April 2015	73,281	$	11.86	⁽²⁾
May 2015	54,082	$	11.94	⁽²⁾
June 2015	212,935	$	12.24	⁽²⁾
Total	438,481

_____________________

⁽¹⁾Pursuant to the program, as amended, we redeemed shares as follows until June 13, 2015:


•	92.5% of our most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date for those shares held for at least one year;


•	95.0% of our most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date for those shares held for at least two years;


•	97.5% of our most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date for those shares held for at least three years; and


•	100.0% of our most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date for those shares held for at least four years.

Until we announced in a public filing with the SEC the establishment of our estimated value per share on March 27, 2014, the estimated value per share was $10.00 for purposes of the foregoing prices. Notwithstanding the above, upon the death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence” of a stockholder, the redemption price was the amount paid to acquire the shares from us until we announced in a public filing with the SEC the establishment of our estimated value per share on March 27, 2014, at which time the redemption price was based on such estimated value per share. On December 9, 2014, our board of directors approved an estimated value per share of our common stock of $12.24, based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, or net asset value, divided by the number of shares outstanding as of September 30, 2014. The change in the redemption price became effective for the December 2014 redemption date and is effective until the estimated value per share is updated. We expect to engage KBS Capital Advisors and/or an independent valuation firm to update our estimated value per share in December 2015.

On May 12, 2015, our board of directors adopted a fifth amended and restated share redemption program (the “Amended Share Redemption Program”). Pursuant to the Amended Share Redemption Program, all eligible shares will be redeemed at a price equal to the most recent estimated value per share as of the applicable redemption date, regardless of how long such shares have been held or whether shares are being redeemed in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence.” There were no other changes to the Amended Share Redemption Program. The Amended Share Redemption Program became effective on June 13, 2015. The sixth amended and restated share redemption program, adopted by our board of directors on July 27, 2015, maintained these terms.

⁽²⁾We limit the dollar value of shares that may be redeemed under the program as described above. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we redeemed $5.3 million of common stock, which represented all redemption requests received in good order and eligible for redemption through the June 2015 redemption date. Based on the amount of net proceeds raised from the sale of shares under the dividend reinvestment plan during 2014, we have $4.6 million available for redemptions during the remainder of 2015 plus an additional $10.0 million available for redemptions requested after July 2015, subject to the limitations described above.
