NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Office Properties Income Trust and its subsidiaries, or OPI, we, us or our, are unaudited. Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, or our 2020 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period have been included. All intercompany transactions and balances with or among our consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated. Our operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the condensed consolidated financial statements include purchase price allocations, useful lives of fixed assets and assessment of impairment of real estate and the related intangibles.
Note 2. Per Common Share Amounts
The following table provides a reconciliation of the weighted average number of common shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands):
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
2021 2020 2021 2020
Weighted average common shares for basic earnings per share 48,211 48,132 48,179 48,111
Effect of dilutive securities: unvested share awards (1)
33 — — —
Weighted average common shares for diluted earnings per share 48,244 48,132 48,179 48,111
(1) For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no dilutive common shares and certain unvested common shares were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been antidilutive.
Note 3. Real Estate Properties
As of September 30, 2021, our wholly owned properties were comprised of 178 properties containing a combined approximately 23,274,000 rentable square feet. The aggregate undepreciated carrying value of our wholly owned properties as of September 30, 2021 was $ 3,916,800 , including $ 79,035 classified as held for sale, and we had noncontrolling ownership interests of 51 % and 50 % in two unconsolidated joint ventures that own three properties containing a combined approximately 444,000 rentable square feet. We generally lease space at our properties on a gross lease, modified gross lease or net lease basis pursuant to fixed term contracts expiring between 2021 and 2053. Some of our leases generally require us to pay all or some property operating expenses and to provide all or most property management services. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we entered into 20 leases for approximately 659,000 rentable square feet for a weighted (by rentable square feet) average lease term of 10.9 years and we made commitments for approximately $ 46,133 of leasing related costs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we entered into 65 leases for approximately 1,782,000 rentable square feet for a weighted (by rentable square feet) average lease term of 10.9 years and we made commitments for approximately $ 129,980 of leasing related costs. As of September 30, 2021, we had estimated unspent leasing related obligations of $ 129,369 .
We regularly evaluate whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred that could indicate an impairment in the value of our long lived assets. If there is an indication that the carrying value of an asset is not recoverable, we estimate the projected undiscounted cash flows to determine if an impairment loss should be recognized. The future net undiscounted cash flows are subjective and are based in part on assumptions regarding hold periods, market rents and terminal capitalization rates. We determine the amount of any impairment loss by comparing the historical carrying value to estimated fair value. We estimate fair value through an evaluation of recent financial performance and projected discounted cash flows using standard industry valuation techniques. In addition to the consideration of impairment upon the events or changes in circumstances

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
described above, we regularly evaluate the remaining lives of our long lived assets. If we change our estimate of the remaining lives, we allocate the carrying value of the affected assets over their revised remaining lives.
Acquisition Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we acquired three properties containing a combined approximately 926,000 rentable square feet for an aggregate purchase price of $ 576,478 , including net purchase price adjustments of $ 1,761 and acquisition related costs of $ 1,264 . These acquisitions were accounted for as asset acquisitions. We allocated the purchase prices of these acquisitions based on the relative estimated fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities as follows:
Acquisition Date Location Number of Properties Rentable Square Feet Purchase Price Land Buildings and Improvements Acquired Real Estate Leases Assumed Real Estate Lease Obligations
June 2021 Chicago, IL (1)
1 531,000 $ 368,331 $ 42,935 $ 258,348 $ 76,136 $ ( 9,088 )

(1) Purchase price includes an adjustment of $ 13,031 to record an estimated real estate tax liability as of the acquisition date.
Disposition Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we sold six properties and a warehouse facility adjacent to a property we own containing a combined approximately 2,565,000 rentable square feet for an aggregate sales price of $ 198,415 , excluding closing costs. The sales of these properties, as presented in the table below, do not represent significant dispositions, individually or in the aggregate, nor do they represent a strategic shift in our business. As a result, the results of operations of these properties are included in continuing operations through the date of sale in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

As of September 30, 2021, we had five properties and two land parcels classified as held for sale in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. These properties and land parcels have been sold or are under agreement to sell for an aggregate sales price of $ 84,500 , excluding closing costs, and are summarized below:
Date of Sale Agreement Number of Properties Location Rentable Square Feet Gross
Sales Price (1)
August 2021 — Sterling, VA (2)

October 2021 5 Brookhaven, GA 378,000 56,000
5 378,000 $ 84,500
(1) Gross sales price is the gross contract price, excluding closing costs.
(2) Consists of two vacant land parcels adjacent to properties we own located in Sterling, VA. The sale of these land parcels was completed in October 2021.
In addition to the properties discussed above, we are currently marketing for sale 17 properties containing approximately 2,161,000 rentable square feet. As of September 30, 2021, three of these properties containing approximately 448,000 rentable square feet are classified as held for sale in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. We recorded a $ 10,658 loss on impairment of real estate to adjust the carrying value of these three properties to their estimated fair values less cost to sell during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. We have determined the remaining 14 properties were not impaired nor did they meet the held for sale criteria as of September 30, 2021.
We cannot be sure we will sell any properties we are marketing for prices in excess of our carrying values or that we will not recognize impairment losses or losses on sale with respect to these properties. In addition, our pending sale is subject to conditions; accordingly, we cannot be sure that we will complete this sale or that this sale will not be delayed or the terms will not change.
Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
We own interests in two joint ventures that own three properties. We account for these investments under the equity method of accounting. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures consisted of the following:
OPI Carrying Value of Investments at
Joint Venture OPI Ownership September 30,
2021 December 31, 2020 Number of Properties Location Rentable Square Feet
Prosperity Metro Plaza 51 % $ 21,142 $ 21,888 2 Fairfax, VA 329,000
1750 H Street, NW 50 % 14,686 16,063 1 Washington, D.C. 115,000
Total $ 35,828 $ 37,951 3 444,000
The following table provides a summary of the mortgage debt of our two unconsolidated joint ventures:
Joint Venture Interest Rate (1)
Maturity Date Principal Balance at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (2)
Prosperity Metro Plaza 4.09 % 12/1/2029 $ 50,000
1750 H Street, NW 3.69 % 8/1/2024 32,000
Weighted Average / Total 3.93 % $ 82,000
(1) Includes the effect of mark to market purchase accounting.
(2) Reflects the entire balance of the debt secured by the properties and is not adjusted to reflect the interests in the joint ventures we do not own. None of the debt is recourse to us.
At September 30, 2021, the aggregate unamortized basis difference of our two unconsolidated joint ventures of $ 7,098 is primarily attributable to the difference between the amount we paid to purchase our interest in these joint ventures, including transaction costs, and the historical carrying value of the net assets of these joint ventures. This difference is being amortized over the remaining useful life of the related properties and the resulting amortization expense is included in equity in net losses of investees in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

Note 4. Leases
Our leases provide for base rent payments and in addition may include variable payments. Rental income from operating leases, including any payments derived by index or market-based indices, is recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term when we have determined that the collectability of substantially all of the lease payments is probable. Some of our leases have options to extend or terminate the lease exercisable at the option of our tenants, which are considered when determining the lease term. In certain circumstances, some leases provide the tenant with the right to terminate if the legislature or other funding authority does not appropriate the funding necessary for the tenant to meet its lease obligations; we have determined the fixed non-cancelable lease term of these leases to be the full term of the lease because we believe the occurrence of early terminations to be a remote contingency based on both our historical experience and our assessments of the likelihood of lease cancellation on a separate lease basis.
We increased rental income to record revenue on a straight line basis by $ 3,924 and $ 3,912 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $ 13,128 and $ 12,963 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Rents receivable, excluding properties classified as held for sale, include $ 76,033 and $ 68,824 of straight line rent receivables at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
We do not include in our measurement of our lease receivables certain variable payments, including payments determined by changes in the index or market-based indices after the inception of the lease, certain tenant reimbursements and other income until the specific events that trigger the variable payments have occurred. Such payments totaled $ 24,098 and $ 60,446 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, of which tenant reimbursements totaled $ 23,167 and $ 57,609 , respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, such payments totaled $ 18,606 and $ 56,654 , respectively, of which tenant reimbursements totaled $ 17,495 and $ 53,346 , respectively.
Note 5. Concentration
Tenant and Credit Concentration
We define annualized rental income as the annualized contractual base rents from our tenants pursuant to our lease agreements as of the measurement date, plus straight line rent adjustments and estimated recurring expense reimbursements to be paid to us, and excluding lease value amortization. As of September 30, 2021, the U.S. government, 11 state governments and four other government tenants combined were responsible for approximately 29.8 % of our annualized rental income. As of September 30, 2020, the U.S. government, 11 state governments and two other government tenants combined were responsible for approximately 35.6 % of our annualized rental income. The U.S. government is our largest tenant by annualized rental income and represented approximately 19.7 % and 25.2 % of our annualized rental income as of September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Geographic Concentration
At September 30, 2021, our 178 wholly owned properties were located in 33 states and the District of Columbia. Properties located in Virginia, California, the District of Columbia, Illinois and Georgia were responsible for 12.2 %, 11.0 %, 9.6 %, 9.1 % and 8.0 % of our annualized rental income as of September 30, 2021, respectively.
Note 6. Indebtedness
Our principal debt obligations at September 30, 2021 were: (1) $ 2,512,000 aggregate outstanding principal amount of senior unsecured notes; and (2) $ 98,604 aggregate outstanding principal amount of mortgage notes.
Our $ 750,000 revolving credit facility is governed by a credit agreement, or our credit agreement, with a syndicate of institutional lenders that includes a feature under which the maximum aggregate borrowing availability may be increased to up to $ 1,950,000 in certain circumstances. Our revolving credit facility is available for general business purposes, including acquisitions. The maturity date of our revolving credit facility is January 31, 2023 and, subject to our payment of an extension fee and meeting certain other conditions, we have the option to extend the stated maturity date of our revolving credit facility by two additional six month periods. We can borrow, repay and reborrow funds available under our revolving credit facility until maturity and no principal repayment is due until maturity. We are required to pay interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a premium, which was 110 basis points per annum at September 30, 2021, on the amount outstanding under our revolving credit facility, if any. We also pay a facility fee on the total amount of lending commitments under our revolving credit facility, which was 25

basis points per annum at September 30, 2021. Both the interest rate premium and facility fee are subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the annual interest rate payable on borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 1.2 %. The weighted average annual interest rate for borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 1.2 % for each of the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and 1.2 % and 2.0 % for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of September 30, 2021 and October 27, 2021, we had no amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility and $ 750,000 available for borrowing.
Our credit agreement and senior unsecured notes indentures and their supplements provide for acceleration of payment of all amounts due thereunder upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, such as, in the case of our credit agreement, a change of control of us, which includes The RMR Group LLC, or RMR LLC, ceasing to act as our business and property manager. Our credit agreement and senior unsecured notes indentures and their supplements also contain covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to incur debts, require us to comply with certain financial covenants and, in the case of our credit agreement, restrict our ability to make distributions under certain circumstances. We believe we were in compliance with the terms and conditions of the respective covenants under our credit agreement and senior unsecured notes indentures and their supplements at September 30, 2021.

We estimated the fair value of our senior unsecured notes due 2046 and 2050 based on the closing price on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, or Nasdaq, (Level 1 inputs as defined in the fair value hierarchy under GAAP) as of the measurement date. We estimated the fair values of our mortgage notes payable using discounted cash flow analyses and currently prevailing market rates (Level 3 inputs as defined in the fair value hierarchy under GAAP) as of the measurement date. Because Level 3 inputs are unobservable, our estimated fair values may differ materially from the actual fair values.

Note 9. Business and Property Management Agreements with RMR LLC
We have no employees. The personnel and various services we require to operate our business are provided to us by RMR LLC. We have two agreements with RMR LLC to provide management services to us: (1) a business management agreement, which relates to our business generally; and (2) a property management agreement, which relates to our property level operations.
Pursuant to our business management agreement with RMR LLC, we recognized net business management fees of $( 1,738 ) and $ 18,287 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $ 4,236 and $ 13,237 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The net business management fees we recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2021 include a reversal of $ 6,627 of previously accrued estimated business management incentive fees, which represents the amount by which the 2021 business management incentive fees as of June 30, 2021 exceeded the amount estimated as of September 30, 2021. The net business management fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 include $ 4,484 of estimated business management incentive fees. The estimated business management incentive fees as of September 30, 2021 are based on our common share total return, as defined in our business management agreement, for the measurement period ending as of that date. We did no t recognize any estimated business management incentive fees for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2020. The actual amount of annual incentive fees for 2021, if any, will be based on our common share total return, as defined in our business management agreement, for the three year period ending December 31, 2021, and will be payable in January 2022.

We and RMR LLC amended our business management agreement effective August 1, 2021 to replace the benchmark index used in the calculation of incentive management fees. Pursuant to the amendment, for periods beginning on and after August 1, 2021, the MSCI U.S. REIT/Office REIT Index will replace the discontinued SNL U.S. REIT Office Index and be used to calculate benchmark returns per share for purposes of determining any incentive management fee payable by us to RMR LLC. For periods prior to August 1, 2021, the SNL U.S. REIT Office Index will continue to be used. Accordingly, the calculation of incentive management fees for the next three measurement periods will continue to use the SNL U.S. REIT Office Index in calculating the benchmark returns for periods through July 31, 2021. This change of index was due to S&P Global ceasing to publish the SNL U.S. REIT Office Index.
Pursuant to our property management agreement with RMR LLC, we recognized aggregate net property management and construction supervision fees of $ 5,519 and $ 15,045 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $ 5,189 and $ 15,381 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. Of these amounts, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, $ 4,224 and $ 12,239 , respectively, were expensed to other operating expenses in our condensed consolidated financial statements and $ 1,295 and $ 2,806 , respectively, were capitalized as building improvements in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, $ 4,302 and $ 12,952 , respectively, were expensed to other operating expenses in our condensed consolidated financial statements and $ 887 and $ 2,429 , respectively, were capitalized as building improvements in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts capitalized are being depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related capital assets.
We are generally responsible for all of our operating expenses, including certain expenses incurred or arranged by RMR LLC on our behalf. We are generally not responsible for payment of RMR LLC’s employment, office or administrative expenses incurred to provide management services to us, except for the employment and related expenses of RMR LLC’s employees assigned to work exclusively or partly at our properties, our share of the wages, benefits and other related costs of RMR LLC’s centralized accounting personnel, our share of RMR LLC’s costs for providing our internal audit function and as otherwise agreed. Our property level operating expenses are generally incorporated into the rents charged to our tenants, including certain payroll and related costs incurred by RMR LLC.

Leases with RMR LLC. We lease office space to RMR LLC in certain of our properties for RMR LLC’s property management offices. Pursuant to our lease agreements with RMR LLC, we recognized rental income from RMR LLC for leased office space of $ 275 and $ 850 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $ 282 and $ 836 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.
Sonesta . In June 2021, we entered into a 30 -year lease agreement with a subsidiary of Sonesta International Hotels Corporation, or Sonesta, in connection with the redevelopment of an office property we own in Washington, D.C. as a mixed use property. Sonesta’s lease is for the planned full-service hotel component of the property that will include approximately 230,000 rentable square feet, which represents approximately 54 % of the total square feet upon completion of the redevelopment. The term of the lease commences upon our delivery of the completed hotel, which we estimate to occur in the first quarter of 2023. Sonesta has two options to extend the term for 10 years each. Pursuant to the lease agreement, Sonesta will pay us annual base rent of approximately $ 6,436 beginning 18 months after the lease commences. The annual base rent will increase by 10 % every five years throughout the term. Sonesta is also obligated to pay its pro rata share of the operating costs for the building. We estimate that the total cost to build the hotel space will be approximately $ 66,000 . Mr. Adam Portnoy is a director and controlling shareholder of Sonesta and Ms. Jennifer Clark is also a director of Sonesta.
