MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Statements by MacKenzie Realty Capital, Inc., together with its subsidiaries as discussed in Note 1 of the financial statements included in this report (collectively, the “Company,”
“we,” or “us”) contained herein, other than historical facts, may constitute “forward-looking statements.” These statements may relate to, among other things, future events or our future performance or financial condition. In some cases, stockholders
can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “might,” “believe,” “will,” “provided,” “anticipate,” “future,” “could,” “growth,” “plan,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “if,” “seek,” “possible,” “potential,” “likely” or
the negative of such terms or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially
different from any anticipated results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. An economic downturn could impair our ability to continue to operate, which could lead to the loss of some
or all of our investments, a contraction of available credit and/or an inability to access the equity markets could impair our lending and investment activities, and interest rate volatility could adversely affect our results, particularly if we elect
to use leverage as a part of our investment strategy. For a discussion of factors that could cause our actual results to differ from forward-looking statements contained herein, please see the discussion under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K, as updated by the Company’s subsequent filings with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Further, we may experience fluctuations in our operating results due to a number of factors, including the effect of the return on our equity investments, the interest rates payable on
our debt investments, the default rates on such investments, the level of our expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which we encounter competition in our markets and general
economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods.
Overview
Historically, we were an externally managed non-diversified closed-end management investment company that elected to be treated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), but we
withdrew our election to be treated as a BDC on December 31, 2020. Our objective remains to generate both current income and capital appreciation through real estate-related investments. We have elected to be treated as a REIT under the Code and, as a
REIT, we are not subject to federal income taxes on amounts that we distribute to the stockholders, provided that, on an annual basis, we generally distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid
deduction and excluding any net capital gain) to the stockholders and meet certain other conditions. To the extent that we satisfy the annual distribution requirement but distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, we will be subject to U.S.
federal corporate income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the actual amount that we pay to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified
under U.S. federal tax laws. Our wholly owned subsidiary, MacKenzie NY Real Estate 2 Corp. (“MacKenzie NY 2”), is subject to corporate federal and state income tax on its taxable income at regular statutory rates.
We are managed by the Advisers, and MacKenzie provides the non-investment management services and administrative services necessary for us to operate.
Investment Plan
We generally seek to invest in real estate assets. We intend to invest at least 80% of our total assets in equity or debt in real estate assets. We can invest up to 20% of our total assets in investment
securities of real estate companies. A real estate company is one that (i) derives at least 50% of its revenue from the ownership, construction, financing, management or sale of commercial, industrial or residential real estate and land; or (ii) has at
least 50% of its assets invested in such real estate. We will not invest in general partnerships, joint ventures, or other entities that do not afford limited liability to their security holders. However, limited liability entities in which we invest
may hold interests in general partnerships, joint ventures, or other non-limited liability entities. When purchasing securities, we generally favor purchasing securities issued by entities that have (i) completed the initial offering of their
securities, (ii) operated for a period of at least two years, and typically more than five years, from the completion of their initial offering, and (iii) fully invested their capital in real properties or other real estate related investments.
Our investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation through the acquisition of real estate assets and debt and equity real estate-related investments. Our independent directors
review our investment policies periodically, at least annually, to confirm that our policies are in the best interests of our stockholders. Each such determination and the basis thereof are contained in the minutes of our Board of Directors meetings.
35
Table of Contents
We seek to accomplish our objective by rigorously analyzing the value of and risks associated with potential acquisitions, and, for up to 20% of our total assets, by acquiring real estate securities at
significant discounts to their net asset value.
We intend to expand our investment strategy to include acquisition of distressed real properties. Like our other investments, we would expect to hold distressed properties and infuse funds as necessary to
extract unrealized value.
We will engage in various investment strategies to achieve our overall investment objectives. The strategy we select depends upon, among other things, market opportunities, the skills and experience of
the Advisers’ investment team and our overall portfolio composition. We generally seek to acquire assets that produce ongoing distributable income for investors, yet with a primary focus on purchasing such assets at a discount from what the Advisers
estimate to be the actual or potential value of the real estate.
We intend to continue our historical activities related to launching tender offers to purchase shares of non-traded REITs in order to boost our short-term cash flow and to support our distributions,
subject to the constraint that such securities will not exceed 20% of our portfolio. We believe this niche strategy will allow us to pay distributions that are supported by cash flow rather than paying back investors’ capital, although there can be no
assurance that some portion of any distribution is not a return of capital.
Rental, Reimbursement and Other Property Income
We generate rental revenue by leasing office space and apartment units to a building’s tenants. These tenant leases fall under the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842 and are
classified as operating leases. Revenues from such leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the lease agreements.
Investment Income
We generate revenues in the form of operating income, capital gains and dividends on dividend-paying equity securities or other equity interests that we acquire, in addition to interest on any debt
investments that we hold. Further, we may generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, structuring or diligence fees, monitoring fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and possibly consulting fees and performance-based fees. Any
such fees are generated in connection with our investments and recognized as earned.
Expenses
Our primary operating expenses include the payment of: (i) advisory fees to our Advisers; (ii) our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by MacKenzie in performing its obligations
under the Administration Agreement; and (iii) other real estate properties operating expenses, including interest expenses on debt obtained to finance our property acquisitions, as detailed below. Our investment advisory fees compensate our Investment
Adviser and Real Estate Adviser for their work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing, monitoring and servicing our investments. Our expenses must be billed to and paid by us, except that MacKenzie may be reimbursed for actual cost of goods
and services used by us and certain necessary administrative expenses. We will bear all other expenses of our operations and transactions, including:
•
the cost of operating and maintaining real estate properties;
•
the cost of calculating our net asset value, including the cost of any third-party valuation services;
•
the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of our shares and other securities;
•
interest payable on debt, if any, to finance our investments;
•
fees payable to third parties relating to, or associated with, making investments, including fees and expenses associated with performing due diligence reviews of prospective investments and third-party advisory
fees;
•
transfer agent and safekeeping fees;
•
fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts;
•

our chief compliance officer and our chief financial officer and any administrative support staff.
Portfolio Investment Composition
As of December 31, 2024, we owned various real estate limited partnerships and REITs that are listed in the “Investments, at fair value” in the table below. We also owned various investments in entities
that own real estate which gave us enough control such that the investments are not securities for 1940 Act purposes, but not enough to consolidate the financial statements of such entities with our own; these are listed below as “Equity method
investments, at fair value”. The following table summarizes the composition of our investments at fair value as of December 31, 2024, and June 30, 2024:

Our 220 Campus Lane Office Building was purchased in September 2023. The office building was vacant at the time of our purchase. Currently we are in the process of renovating the building and marketing it
for lease. As of December 31, 2024, six tenants are leasing space totaling 12,264 square feet or 28.4% of the building. The annualized base rent for these tenants is $393,292.
In addition to our commercial and residential real estate properties, we also own two parcels of land: a vacant parcel adjacent to our 220 Campus Lane Office Building in Fairfield, California (“Campus
Lane Land”), and a vacant parcel located at 5000 Wiseman Way, Fairfield, California (“Aurora Land”). We acquired the Campus Lane Land in September 2023 with the long-term objective of developing it into a multi-family residential community. The
entitlement process for the vacant land is currently underway, but the financial resources to realize our goal of commencing construction in late 2025 have not been secured and will be dependent upon the City’s approval process. The development of
Aurora Land is discussed below. Both parcels of land are owned by the Operating Partnership through its subsidiaries: Campus Lane Residential, LLC and MRC Aurora, LLC.
Aurora Land Development (known as Aurora at Green Valley)
We are actively constructing a multi-family residential community on this land which will include 72 units in three buildings, and a club house. The city’s planning commission approved our development
project in September 2023, and we obtained all necessary building permits in August 2024 and the building construction phase commenced in September 2024. Construction is progressing on schedule and on budget. In February 2024, we commenced selling
preferred units in MRC Aurora with the goal of raising $10 million in preferred capital and closed on a construction loan of $17.15 million. We have raised $4.36 million in preferred capital from outside investors as of the date of this report.
There are no present plans for any major renovation or development of any property except for our 220 Campus Lane Office Building, Aurora at Green Valley and Campus Lane Land, as discussed above. Each property is being
held for income production and increased occupancy and/or rental rates. We have property and liability insurance policies on all properties which we believe are adequate.

Current Market and Economic Conditions
The markets in which our properties operate are highly competitive, and each property faces unique competitive challenges based upon local economic, political, and legal factors. Our West coast
multi-family residential properties are generally restricted from raising rents significantly by local rent control laws. Rent control can result in average rents that are significantly below market, and this provides some buffer against declining
rents in a recession. However, in order to encourage development, rent control usually does not apply to newer properties. Since older properties may be unable to raise rents as needed, they may be unable to make improvements that could allow them to
compete with newer properties.
Our consolidated office properties, 1300 Main Office Building, First and Main Office Building, Main Street West Office Building, One Harbor Center, Satellite Place Office Building, Woodland Corporate
Center, 220 Campus Lane Office Building, and Green Valley Executive Center are all Class A suburban office properties and are located in Napa, Woodland, Suisun City and Fairfield, California and Duluth, Georgia, which also must compete with every other
office property in the market.
Recently, the broader economy began experiencing increased levels of inflation, higher interest rates and tightening monetary and fiscal policies, although inflation has now moderated and interest rates
have begun to come back down some. The Federal Reserve increased the federal funds rate multiple times in 2022 and 2023 then paused hikes in earlier part of 2024 before implementing rate cuts in the fourth quarter. We currently have fixed and variable
interest rates for our loans. The rise in overall interest rates caused an increase in our variable rate borrowing costs resulting in an increase in interest expense. The cumulative effect of the prior rate increases may adversely impact real estate
asset values. In addition, a prolonged period of high and persistent inflation could cause an increase in our expenses. The current market and economic conditions could have a material impact on our business, cash flow and results of operations. It
could also impact our ability to find suitable acquisitions, sell properties, and raise equity and debt capital.

Rental, reimbursements and other property income:
Rental and reimbursement revenues are generated from our commercial and residential real estate properties. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we generated $8.03 million in rental and
reimbursements revenues, of which $6.57 million was generated from our nine commercial properties and $1.46 million was generated from our four residential properties. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we generated $3.58 million in
rental and reimbursements revenues, of which $2.10 million was generated from our six commercial properties, and $1.48 million was generated from our four residential properties. The total increase in rental revenues was mainly due to the acquisition
of three office buildings (Green Valley Executive Center, One Harbor Center and Green Valley Medical Center) since December 31, 2023 and an early lease termination income of $3.0 million received from one of the tenants at our Satellite Place Office
Building in December 2024.

Investment income:
Investment income was made up of dividends, distributions from operations, distributions from sales/capital transactions, interest, and other investment income. Total investment income for the three
months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $0.02 million and $0.26 million, respectively. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we received minimal distributions from operations, sales, and liquidations as compared to $0.10 million during
the three months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in distributions received from investments. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we received dividends, interest, and other investment income of $0.02
million as compared to $0.16 million received during the three months ended December 31, 2023. This decrease was mainly due to decrease in interest income from our cash deposits in money market funds during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Expenses:
Our asset management and incentive management fees are based on the advisory agreements that were effective January 1, 2021.
Asset management fee:
The asset management fees for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were $0.86 million and $0.79 million, respectively. The slight increase was due to total increase of $17.92 million in total invested capital from $164.74 million as of December 31, 2023 to $182.66 million as of December 31, 2024.
Incentive management fee:
Under the Advisory Management Agreement, we pay an incentive management fee that is equal to 15% of all distributions once shareholders have received cumulative distributions equal to 6% from the
effective date of the Advisory Management Agreement. We did not incur any incentive management fee for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Administrative cost and transfer agent reimbursements:
Costs reimbursed to MacKenzie for the three months ended December 31, 2024 were $0.17 million as compared to $0.19 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. The slight decrease was due to a
decrease in the allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by MacKenzie in comparison to December 31, 2023, mainly due to hiring of a third party transfer service agent since December 31, 2023.
There were minimal transfer agent cost reimbursements paid to MacKenzie for the three months ended December 31, 2024. Transfer agent cost reimbursements paid to MacKenzie for the three months ended
December 31, 2023 was $0.02 million.
Property operating and maintenance expenses:
Operating and maintenance expenses mainly consist of real estate taxes, utilities, repair and maintenance, cleaning, landscape, security, property management fees, insurance, and various other
administrative expenses incurred in the operation of our commercial and residential real estate assets. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we incurred operating and maintenance expenses of $1.71 million, of which $1.07 million were
incurred in the operation of our nine commercial properties and $0.64 million were incurred in the operation of our four residential properties. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we incurred operating and maintenance expenses of $1.51
million, of which $0.85 million were incurred in the operation of our six commercial properties and $0.66 million from our four residential properties. The increase in the operating expenses was mainly due to the acquisitions of three new office
buildings (Green Valley Executive Center, One Harbor Center, and Green Valley Medical Center) since December 31, 2023.
Depreciation and amortization:
During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded depreciation and amortization of $2.18 million, of which $1.79 million was attributable to the depreciation and amortization of real estate and
intangible assets of our nine commercial properties and $0.39 million was attributable to our four residential properties. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we recorded depreciation and amortization of $1.56 million, of which $1.02
million was attributable to the depreciation and amortization of real estate and intangible assets of our six commercial properties and $0.54 million was attributable to our four residential properties. The increase in total depreciation and
amortization of $0.62 million during the three months ended December 31, 2024 was due to the acquisitions of three new office buildings (Green Valley Executive Center, One Harbor Center, and Green Valley Medical Center) since December 31, 2023.

Interest expense:
Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was $1.97 million, of which $1.38 million was incurred on the mortgage notes payable associated with our nine commercial properties and
$0.59 million was incurred on the mortgage notes payable associated with our four residential properties and the debt on Campus Lane Residential. Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was $1.45 million, of which $0.63 million
was incurred on the mortgage notes payable associated with our five commercial properties, which exclude Satellite Place Office Building since there was no debt on the property during the three months ended December 31, 2023, and $0.82 million was
incurred on the mortgage notes payable associated with our four residential properties and the debt on Campus Lane Residential. The total increase of $0.52 million in interest expense during the three months ended December 31, 2024, was primarily due
to the additional mortgage notes payable of four office buildings (Satellite Place Office Building, Green Valley Executive Center, One Harbor Center, and Green Valley Medical Center) since December 31, 2023.
Other operating expenses:
Other operating expenses include professional fees, directors’ fees, printing and mailing expense, and other general and administrative expenses. Other operating expenses for the three months ended
December 31, 2024 and 2023, were $0.61 million and $0.42 million, respectively. The increase in other operating expenses was mainly due to the acquisition of three commercial properties (Green Valley Executive Center, One Harbor Center, and Green
Valley Medical Center) since December 31, 2023, resulting in a higher amount of general and administrative operating expenses during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Net realized gain (loss) on sale of investments:
During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a realized gain of $0.06 million as compared to $1.29 million net realized loss during the three months ended December 31, 2023. Total realized
gain for three months ended December 31, 2024, was realized from the sale of two non-traded REIT securities. Total net realized loss for the three months ended December 31, 2023, resulted from a realized gain on the sale of one non-traded REIT
security, offset by a realized loss from the write-off of a limited partnership interest.
Net unrealized gain (loss) on investments:
During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a net unrealized gain of $0.02 million, which was net of $0.03 million of unrealized gain reclassification adjustment. The reclassification
adjustments are the accumulated unrealized gains or losses as of the end of prior period that are realized during the current period. Accordingly, the net unrealized gains excluding the reclassification adjustment for the three months ended December
31, 2024, were $0.05 million, which resulted from fair value appreciations of $0.01 million from general partnership interests, $0.02 million from limited partnership interests and $0.02 million from non-traded REIT securities.
During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a net unrealized gain of $1.83 million, which was net of $2.31 million of unrealized losses reclassification adjustments. The reclassification
adjustments are the accumulated unrealized gains or losses as of the end of prior period that are realized during the current period. Accordingly, the net unrealized losses excluding the reclassification adjustments for the three months ended December
31, 2023, were $0.48 million, which resulted from fair value depreciations of $0.02 million from limited partnership interests, $0.08 million from general partnership interests and $0.38 million from non-traded REIT securities.
Income tax provision (benefit):
The Parent Company has elected to be treated as a REIT for tax purposes under the Code and, as a REIT, is not subject to federal income taxes on amounts that it distributes to the stockholders, provided
that, on an annual basis, it generally distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding any capital gain) to the stockholders and meets certain other conditions. To the extent
that it satisfies the annual distribution requirement but distributes less than 100% of its REIT taxable income, it will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on its undistributed taxable income. In addition, it will be subject to a 4% excise
tax if the actual amount that it pays to its stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under U.S. federal tax laws.

The Parent Company satisfied the annual dividend payment and other REIT requirements for the tax year ended December 31, 2023. Therefore, it did not incur any tax expense or excise tax on its income from
operations during the quarterly periods within the tax year 2023. Similarly, for the tax year 2024, the Parent Company paid the requisite amounts of dividends during the year and met other REIT requirements such that the Parent Company will not owe any
income taxes. Therefore, the Parent Company did not record any income tax provisions during any fiscal periods within the tax year 2024.
MacKenzie NY 2 is subject to corporate federal and state income tax on its taxable income at regular statutory rates. As of December 31, 2024, it did not have any taxable income for tax year 2024.
Therefore, we did not record any tax provisions during any fiscal periods within the tax year 2024. MacKenzie Satellite is a qualified REIT subsidiary of the Parent Company. Therefore, it does not file a separate tax return.
The Operating Partnership is a limited partnership. Hollywood Hillview, MacKenzie Shoreline, Madison, PVT, 220 Campus Lane, Campus Lane Residential, Green Valley Executive Center, One Harbor Center and
Green Valley West are limited liability companies. First & Main, 1300 Main, Woodland Corporate Center Two, Main Street West, and Green Valley Medical Center are limited partnerships. Accordingly, all income tax liabilities of these entities flow
through to their partners, which ultimately is the Company. Therefore, no income tax provisions are recorded for these entities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital Resources:
We offered to sell up to 5 million shares of common stock in our first public offering and up to 15 million shares of common stock in each of our second and third public offerings. We have raised total
gross proceeds of $119.10 million from the issuance of common stock under the public offerings, $42.46 million from our first public offering, which concluded in October 2016, $67.99 million from the second public offering, which concluded in October
2019, and $8.65 million from our third public offering, which concluded in October 2020. In addition, we have raised $15.56 million from the issuance of shares of common stock under the common stock DRIP as of December 31, 2024. Out of the total
proceeds from DRIPs, we have utilized a total of $14.28 million to repurchase shares of common stock under the Share Repurchase Program. In November 2021, the SEC qualified our Offering Circular pursuant to Regulation A to sell up to $50,000,000 of
shares of our Series A preferred stock at an initial offering price of $25.00 per share. On October 14, 2022, we amended our Offering Circular and increased the offering to sell up to $75 million of shares of our Series A preferred stock. On November
1, 2023, we further amended our Offering Circular to sell an aggregate of up to $75 million of shares of either our Series A preferred stock or our Series B preferred stock. This post-effective amendment to the Offering Circular was declared effective
on November 14, 2023, and terminated on November 1, 2024. We have raised $18.61 million through the sale of our Series A preferred stock and $2.47 million Series B preferred stock pursuant to the Offering Circular as of December 31, 2024. In addition,
we have raised $0.35 million from the issuance of shares of Series A and Series B preferred stock under the preferred stock DRIP. In January 2025, a new Offering Circular was qualified by the SEC for the sale of 1,436,638.62 shares of Series A and
1,417,216.17 shares of Series B preferred stock. Of these amounts, 150,000 shares of each are reserved for the preferred stock DRIP. On January 15, 2025, our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 for the sale of up to $75 million in common stock,
preferred stock, warrants, and units was declared effective by the SEC, and we entered into an equity distribution agreement with Maxim to issue and sell our common stock for an aggregate gross sales price of $20 million pursuant to the at-the-market
offering described in the ATM Prospectus, subject to maintaining compliance with General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 which requires that in no event will we sell securities in a public primary offering with a value exceeding more than one-third of
our public float in any 12-month period so long as our public float remains below $75.0 million.
We plan to fund future investments with the net proceeds raised from our preferred equity offering and any future offerings of securities and cash flows from operations, as well as interest earned from
the temporary investment of cash in U.S. government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. However, we have not raised as much from our preferred equity offering as we did when it was first offered, at least
in part due to rising interest rates making the preferred return less attractive. Thus, there is no guarantee that we can raise sufficient funds to meet our goals in terms of growth, strategic or necessary loan rebalancing, and additional investments.
We also may fund a portion of our investments through borrowings from banks and issuances of senior securities. We also may borrow money within the underlying companies in which we have majority ownership.
We intend to utilize leverage to enhance the total returns of our portfolio. Historically, we were only able to access leverage at attractive costs through a credit facility, but the termination of our
BDC status effective December 31, 2020 has provided us with greater flexibility in choosing among different alternatives for raising debt capital going forward.
We also have greater flexibility in issuing securities with common equity participation features (such as warrants and convertible notes) and/or additional classes of stock (such as preferred) in order to
facilitate capital formation now that we are no longer subject to the restrictions of the 1940 Act.
Our aggregate borrowings (if any), secured and unsecured, are expected to be reasonable in relation to our net assets and will be reviewed by the Board of Directors at least quarterly.
We used the funds raised from our public offerings to invest in portfolio companies and to pay operating expenses.
We finished the six months ended December 31, 2024, with cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash of approximately $7.29 million. Our principal demands for cash are to fund operating and
administrative expenses, debt service obligations, and dividends on our common and preferred Series A and B stock. In addition, we may also use cash to purchase additional properties. We expect to fund our material cash requirements over the next year
through a combination of cash on hand, net cash provided by our property operations, new capital raised from our preferred series A and B stock, and new borrowings at the underlying companies and at the Parent Company level under a new line of credit.
Cash Flows:
Six months ended December 31, 2024:

Material Cash Obligations
We have entered into two contracts under which we have material future commitments: (i) the Advisory Management Agreement and the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement, under which the
Advisers serves as our advisers, and (ii) the Administration Agreement, under which MacKenzie furnishes us with certain non-investment management services and administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations. Each of these
agreements is terminable by either party upon proper notice. Payments under the Advisory Management Agreement in future periods will be (i) a percentage of the value of our Invested Capital; (ii) Acquisition Fees, and (iii) incentive fees based on our
performance above specified hurdles. Payments under the Administration Agreement will occur on an ongoing basis as expenses are incurred on our behalf by MacKenzie. However, if MacKenzie withdraws as our administrator, it will be liable for any
expenses we incur as a result of such withdrawal. For additional information concerning the terms of these agreements and related fees paid, see Note 8 – Related Party Transactions in the consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Borrowings
On January 22, 2025, we entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with Patterson Real Estate Services, LP, an affiliate of the Adviser, of up to $10,000,000.
Interest will accrue on any unpaid principal balance on the note at a fixed annual interest rate of 10.00%. In addition, an origination fee of 2% will be charged on each advance and the sum will be added to the principal balance. The loan matures on
June 1, 2026. The loan requires monthly interest beginning on March 1, 2025, with the remaining principal balance due at maturity. This note was not included in our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024. As of the date of this report, the
Company has borrowed $5 million under the line of credit.

We anticipate utilizing this credit facility on a short-term basis to bridge the gap between our asset acquisition expenditures and the inflow of funds from our planned capital raise. We expect to be
subject to various customary covenants and restrictions on our operations, such as covenants which would (i) require us to maintain certain financial ratios, including asset coverage, debt to equity and interest coverage, and a minimum net worth,
and/or (ii) restrict our ability to incur liens, additional debt, merge or sell assets, make certain investments and/or distributions or engage in transactions with affiliates. We also borrow money within the underlying companies in which we have
majority ownership.

Three of our underlying companies: Hollywood Hillview, Woodland Corporate Center Two, and Main Street West’s debts mature during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. The $17.5 million note payable on
Hollywood Hillview matured in October 2024; however, prior to the maturity date, the loan agreement was amended with the options to extend the current maturity date for three periods from October 6, 2024 to November 6, 2024 with a principal paydown of
$515,000, from November 6, 2024 to December 6, 2024 with a principal paydown of $410,000, and from December 6, 2024 to February 6, 2025 with a principal paydown of $410,000. We exercised all three extension options to extend the maturity date to
February 6, 2025. In February 2025, the loan agreement was further amended to extend the maturity to April 6, 2025. We listed the underlying property for sale in August 2024; however, on February 1, 2025, we decided to discontinue marketing the
property for sale. As a result, it no longer qualifies as held for sale since it is no longer listed. The $7.5 million note payable on Woodland Corporate Center Two also matured in October 2024, and was refinanced through a new loan that closed on
October 4, 2024. The $14.74 million note payable on Main Street West matured on November 1, 2024; however, we were unable to agree with the bank on the principal paydown amount to extend the maturity date. As a result, the Company is currently in
default under the note terms. Despite on-going negotiations, the bank has initiated foreclosure proceedings and filed and notice of default, and on January 28, 2025, a receiver was appointed by the court. The bank may file a notice of sale on or about
February 25, 2025, and the property could potentially be sold within 20 days of that date. However, the Company is pursuing several refinancing and leasing options at this time.
Distributions to Stockholders
We pay quarterly distributions to stockholders to the extent that we have income from operations available. Our quarterly distributions, if any, will be determined by our Board of Directors after a review
and distributed pro-rata to holders of our shares; we declare distributions on a monthly basis, but pay each quarter. Any distributions to our stockholders will be declared out of assets legally available for distribution. In no event are we permitted
to borrow money to make distributions if the amount of such distributions would exceed our annual accrued and received revenues, less operating costs. Distributions in kind are not permitted, except as provided in our Charter.
We have elected to be treated as a REIT under the Code. As a REIT, we are not subject to federal income taxes on amounts that we distribute to the stockholders, provided that, on an annual basis, we
generally distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding any net capital gain) to the stockholders and meet certain other conditions. To the extent that we satisfy the annual
distribution requirement but distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, we will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the
actual amount that we pay to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under U.S. federal tax laws.

We have DRIPs that provide for reinvestment of our dividends and other distributions on behalf of stockholders for any individual stockholder who elects to participate in the DRIPs, provided that the
applicable DRIP is permitted by the state in which the stockholders reside. We can offer no assurance that we will achieve results that will permit the payment of any cash distributions. On March 4, 2024, the Board of Directors suspended the common
stock share repurchase program and common stock DRIP in connection with trading of its common stock on the OTCQX Best Market. When our common stock became eligible for trading on OTC Markets in April 2024, the share repurchase program automatically
terminated, and the Board of Directors will decide whether, and when, to reinstate the common stock DRIP.
During the six months ended December 31, 2024, the Board approved the following quarterly dividends:

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at
the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While we do not believe the reported amounts would be materially different, application of these policies involves the exercise of
judgment and the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on experience and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. All of our significant accounting policies, including certain critical accounting estimates, are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024. We
have not made any material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the period covered by this report.
