REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Stockholders and Board of Directors
Postal Realty Trust, Inc.
Cedarhurst, NY
Opinion on the Consolidated and
Combined Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets of Postal Realty Trust, Inc. as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated and
combined consolidated statements of operations, changes in equity (deficit), and cash flows of Postal
Realty Trust, Inc. and its Predecessor (the “Company”) for the years then ended, and the related
notes and schedule (collectively referred to as the “consolidated and combined consolidated financial
statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated and combined consolidated financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended , in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated and combined
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on the Company’s consolidated and combined consolidated financial statements based on our
audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”)
and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with
the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the consolidated and combined consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether
due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control
over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures
to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated and combined consolidated financial statements,
whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a
test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated and combined consolidated financial
statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated and combined consolidated financial statements. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
/s/ BDO USA, LLP
We have served as the Company's auditor
since 2017.

TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note
1. Organization and Description of Business
Postal
Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company” “we”, “us”, or “our”) was organized in the state
of Maryland on November 19, 2018. On May 17, 2019, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of the
Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (our “Class A common stock”). The Company contributed
the net proceeds from the IPO to Postal Realty LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), in
exchange for common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (each, an “OP Unit,” and collectively,
the “OP Units”). Both the Company and the Operating Partnership commenced operations upon completion of the IPO and
certain related formation transactions (the “Formation Transactions”). Prior to the completion of the IPO and the
Formation Transactions, the Company had no operations.
The
Company’s interest in the Operating Partnership entitles the Company to share in distributions from, and allocations of
profits and losses of, the Operating Partnership in proportion to the Company’s percentage ownership of OP Units. As the
sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company has the exclusive power under the partnership agreement to manage
and conduct the Operating Partnership’s business, subject to limited approval and voting rights of the limited partners.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company held an approximately 76.9% interest in the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner
and the majority interest holder, the Company consolidates the financial position and results of operations of the Operating Partnership.
The Operating Partnership is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which we are the primary beneficiary.
Our
Predecessor (the “Predecessor”) was a combination of limited liability companies (the “LLCs”), one C-Corporation
(“UPH”), one S-Corporation (“NPM”) and one limited partnership. The entities that comprised the Predecessor
were majority owned and controlled by Mr. Spodek and his affiliates and were acquired by contribution to, or merger with,
the Company and the Operating Partnership.
The
Predecessor did not represent a legal entity. The Predecessor and its related assets and liabilities were under common control
and were contributed to the Operating Partnership in connection with the Company’s IPO.
For
the periods prior to May 17, 2019, the Predecessor, through the LLCs, UPH and the limited partnership, owned 190 postal properties
in 33 states.
NPM
was formed on November 17, 2004, for the purpose of managing commercial real estate properties.
As
of December 31, 2020, the Company owned a portfolio of 726 postal properties located in 47 states. Our properties are primarily
leased to a single tenant, the United States Postal Service (the “USPS”).
In
addition, through its taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”), Postal Realty Management TRS, LLC (“PRM”), the
Company provides fee-based third party property management services for an additional 400 postal properties, which are owned by
Mr. Spodek and his affiliates, his family members and their partners.
The
Company, until May 15, 2019, was authorized to issue up to 600,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. On May
15, 2019, in connection with the IPO, the Company amended its articles of incorporation such that the Company is currently authorized
to issue up to 500,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, 27,206 shares of Class B common stock, $0.01 par value per share (our
“Class B common stock” or “Voting Equivalency stock”), and up to 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock.
The
Company believes it has been organized in conformity with, and has operated in a manner that has enabled it to meet, the requirements
or qualification as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Code, and the Company elected to be taxed as
a REIT under the Code commencing with our short taxable year ended December 31, 2019. As a REIT, the Company generally will not
be subject to federal income tax to the extent that it distributes its REIT taxable income for each tax year to its stockholders.
REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(CONTINUED)
Pursuant
to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”), the Company qualifies as an emerging growth company (“EGC”).
An EGC may choose, as we have done, to take advantage of the extended private company transition period provided for complying
with new or revised accounting standards that may be issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Initial
Public Offering and Formation Transactions
Both
the Company and the Operating Partnership commenced operations upon completion of the IPO and the Formation Transactions on May
17, 2019. The Company’s operations are carried out primarily through the Operating Partnership and the wholly owned subsidiaries
of the Operating Partnership.
On
May 17, 2019, the Company completed its IPO, pursuant to which it sold 4,500,000 shares of its Class A common stock at a public
offering price of $17.00 per share. The Company raised $76.5 million in gross proceeds, resulting in net proceeds of approximately
$71.1 million after deducting approximately $5.4 million in underwriting discounts and before giving effect to $6.4 million in
other expenses relating to the IPO. The Company’s Class A common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under
the symbol “PSTL” on May 15, 2019.
In
connection with the IPO and Formation Transactions, the Company, through its Operating Partnership, used a portion of the net
proceeds to repay approximately $31.7 million of outstanding indebtedness related to the Predecessor.
Pursuant
to the Formation Transactions, the Company, directly or through the Operating Partnership, acquired the entities that comprise
the Predecessor. The initial properties and other interests were contributed in exchange for 1,333,112 OP Units, 637,058 shares
of Class A common stock, 27,206 shares of Voting Equivalency stock and $1.9 million of cash. In addition, the Operating Partnership
purchased 81 postal properties (the “Acquisition Properties”) in exchange for $26.9 million in cash, including approximately
$1.0 million paid to Mr. Spodek, the Company’s chief executive officer and a director for his non-controlling ownership
in nine of the Acquisition Properties.
The
Company’s results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019 reflect the results of operations of the Predecessor
together with the Company, while the financial condition as of December 31, 2019 reflects solely the Company. References in these
notes to consolidated financial statements to “Postal Realty Trust, Inc.” signify the Company for the period after
the completion of the IPO and the Formation Transactions and the Predecessor for all prior periods.
The
following is a summary of the Predecessor Statement of Operations for the period from January 1, 2019 through May 16, 2019, and
the Company’s Statement of Operations for the period from May 17, 2019 through December 31, 2019. These amounts are included
in the Consolidated and Combined Consolidated Statement of Operations herein for the year ended December 31, 2019.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying Consolidated and Combined Consolidated Financial Statements include the financial position and results of operations
of the Company and its Predecessor, the Operating Partnership and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company did not have any
operations from the date of formation to May 17, 2019. The Predecessor represents a combination of certain entities holding interests
in real estate that were commonly controlled prior to the Formation Transactions. Due to their common control, the financial statements
of the separate Predecessor entities which owned the properties and the management company are presented on a combined consolidated
basis. The effects of all significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The
Company consolidates the Operating Partnership, a VIE in which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. The primary
beneficiary is the entity that has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic
performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could
be significant to the VIE.
A
non-controlling interest is defined as the portion of the equity in an entity not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the
Company. Non-controlling interests are required to be presented as a separate component of equity in the Consolidated Balance
Sheets. Accordingly, the presentation of net income (loss) reflects the income attributed to controlling and non-controlling interests.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management believes its estimates are reasonable, actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Offering
and Other Costs
Certain
of the costs related to the IPO and the Formation Transactions paid by an affiliate of the Company’s initial sole shareholder
were reimbursed by the Company from the proceeds of the IPO. Offering costs were recorded in “Stockholders’ equity”
in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.
Segment
Reporting
The
Company acquires and manages postal properties and reports our business as a single reportable segment.
Investments
in Real Estate
Upon
the acquisition of real estate, the purchase price is allocated based upon the relative fair value of the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed. The allocation of the purchase price to the relative fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property
is derived by valuing the property as if it were vacant. All real estate acquisitions in the periods presented qualified as asset
acquisitions and, as such, acquisition-related fees and acquisition-related expenses related to these asset acquisitions are capitalized
as part of the acquisition.
Investments
in real estate generally include land, buildings, tenant improvements and identified intangible assets, such as in-place lease
intangibles and above or below-market lease intangibles. Direct and certain indirect costs clearly associated with the development,
construction, leasing or expansion of real estate assets are capitalized as a cost of the property. Repairs and maintenance costs
are expensed as incurred.

Depreciation
or amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method based upon the following estimated useful lives:
Years
Buildings and improvements
40
Equipment and fixtures
5-10
Tenant improvements
Shorter of useful life or applicable lease term
In-place lease value
Remaining non-cancellable term of the in-place lease
The
acquired above or below-market lease intangibles are amortized to “Rental income” over the applicable lease term,
inclusive of any option periods for below-market leases.
Deferred
Costs
Financing costs related to the issuance of the Company’s
secured long-term debt are deferred and amortized as an increase to interest expense over the term of the related debt instrument
using the effective-interest method and are reported as a reduction of the related debt balance on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Deferred financing costs related to the Company’s credit facility, or (the “Credit Facility”) are deferred and
amortized as an increase to interest expense over the term of the Credit Facility and are included in “Prepaid expenses and
other assets, net” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Reclassifications
Certain
prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.
Cash
and Escrows and Reserves
Cash
includes unrestricted cash with a maturity of three months or less. Escrows and reserves consist of restricted cash. The following

Revenue
Recognition
The
Company has operating lease agreements with tenants, some of which contain provisions for future rental increases. Rental income
is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. In addition, certain lease agreements provide for reimbursements
from tenants for real estate taxes and other recoverable costs, which are recorded on an accrual basis as “Tenant reimbursement
revenue” on the Company’s Consolidated and Combined Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Fee
and other income primarily consist of property management fees. These fees arise from contractual agreements with entities that
are affiliated with the Company’s CEO. Management fee income is recognized as earned under the respective agreements.
The
Company carries liability insurance to mitigate its exposure to certain losses, including those relating to property damage and
business interruption. The Company records the estimated amount of expected insurance proceeds for property damage and other losses
incurred as an asset (typically a receivable from the insurer) and income up to the amount of the losses incurred when receipt
of insurance proceeds is deemed probable. Any amount of insurance recovery in excess of the amount of the losses incurred is considered
a gain contingency and is not recorded in fee and other income until the proceeds are received. Insurance recoveries for business
interruption for lost revenue or profit are accounted for as gain contingencies in their entirety, and therefore are not recorded
in income until the proceeds are received.
Revenue from direct financing leases is recognized over the
lease term using the effective interest rate method. At lease inception, we record an asset within investments on the Company’s
Consolidated Balance Sheets, which represents the Company’s net investment in the direct financing lease. This initial
net investment is determined by aggregating the total future minimum lease payments attributable to the direct financing lease and
the estimated residual value of the property, if any, less unearned income. Over the lease term, the investment in the direct financing
lease is reduced and income is recognized as revenue in “Fee and other income” on the Company’s Consolidated
and Combined Consolidated Statement of Operations and produces a constant periodic rate of return on the investment in direct financing
lease, net.
Income
Taxes
As a REIT, the Company is generally not subject to federal corporate
income tax on our net income (loss) that the Company distributes to our shareholders. The Operating Partnership which holds our
properties is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is not subject to U.S. federal income taxes as the revenues
and expenses pass through to the respective owners where they are taxed. The states and cities in which the Operating Partnership
operates generally follows the U.S. federal income tax treatment.
UPH
was subject to federal and state and local income taxes for tax years before the date of the IPO on May 17, 2019. For periods
subsequent to the completion of the IPO and the Formation Transactions, PRM is subject to federal, state and local corporate income
taxes to the extent there is taxable income. UPH and PRM account for income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method.
Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the differences between the
financial statement carrying value of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases based on enacted tax laws
and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.
A
valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets when management anticipates that it is more likely than not that all,
or a portion, of these assets would not be realized. In determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted, all positive and
negative evidence and all sources of taxable income such as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward
periods and tax strategies are considered to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to realize the deferred
tax asset. The assessment of the adequacy of a valuation allowance is based on estimates of taxable income by jurisdiction and
the period over which deferred tax assets will be recoverable.
The
tax effects of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns are recognized only if they are “more
likely-than-not” to be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits as of the reporting
date. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are measured based on the largest benefit that
has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes estimated accrued
interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
following disclosure of estimated fair value was determined by management using available market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies. However, considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly,
the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the assets
and liabilities as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies
may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Cash, escrows and reserves, receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts
payable and accrued expenses are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values as of December 31, 2020 and
December 31, 2019 due to their short maturities.
As
of December 31, 2020, the Company had an investment in a direct financing lease with a carrying value of $0.5
million and an effective interest rate of 7.89%. The carrying value of the investment in a direct financing lease approximated
the fair market value as of December 31, 2020. The fair value of the Company’s debt was categorized as a Level 3 basis (as
provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures).
The
fair value of the Company’s borrowings under its Credit Facility approximates carrying value. The fair value of the Company’s
secured borrowings aggregated approximately $47.1 million and $3.2 million as compared to the principal balance of $47.0 million
and $3.2 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s debt was categorized as
a Level 3 basis (as provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures). The fair value of these financial instruments
was determined by using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans
with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of the mortgage debt was determined by discounting the future contractual interest
and principal payments by a market rate.
Disclosure
about fair value of assets and liabilities is based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2020 and
2019. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have
not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since December 31, 2020 and current estimates of
fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.
Impairment
The
carrying value of real estate investments and related intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an
asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis. An impairment
loss is measured based on the excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. Impairment analyses will
be based on current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared. If
estimates of the projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods or market conditions change, the evaluation of impairment
losses may be different and such differences may be material. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is subjective and is based,
in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual
results. No impairments were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Concentration
of Credit Risks
As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s properties were
leased primarily to a single tenant, the USPS. For the year ended December 31, 2020, our total rental income of $20.3 million was
concentrated in the following state: Pennsylvania (10.0%). For the year ended December 31, 2019, our total rental income of $8.9
million was concentrated in the following states: Texas (14.2%), Massachusetts (14.0%), Wisconsin (12.9%) and Pennsylvania (9.9%).
The ability of the USPS to honor the terms of their leases is dependent upon regulatory, economic, environmental or competitive
conditions in any of these areas and could have an effect on our overall business results.

The
Company has deposited cash and maintains its bank deposits with large financial institutions in amounts that exceed federally
insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Non-controlling
Interests
Non-controlling
interests in the Company represent common units of limited partnership interest of the Operating Partnership (each, an “OP
Unit,” and collectively, the OP Units”) held by the Predecessor’s prior investors and certain sellers of properties
to the Company and long-term incentive units of the Operating Partnership (each, an “LTIP Unit,” and collectively,
the “LTIP Units”) primarily held by the Company’s CEO. Upon completion of the IPO and the Formation Transactions,
the Operating Partnership issued 1,333,112 OP Units to the Predecessor’s prior investors as partial consideration for the
contribution of their interest in the Predecessor to the Operating Partnership and 114,706 LTIP Units to the Company’s CEO.
In
addition, during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company issued 483,333 and 824,350 OP Units, respectively to
certain contributors in connection with portfolio acquisitions.
Equity
Based Compensation
The
Company accounts for equity-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation, which
requires the Company to recognize an expense for the grant date fair value of equity-based awards. Equity-classified stock awards
granted to employees and non-employees that have a service condition and/or a market condition are measured at fair value at date
of grant and remeasured at fair value only upon a modification of the award. The Company will record forfeitures as they occur.
The
Company recognizes compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of each award, with the amount
of compensation expense recognized at the end of a reporting period at least equal the portion of fair value of the respective
award at grant date or modification date, as applicable, that has vested through that date. For awards with a market condition,
compensation cost is not reversed if a market condition is not met so long as the requisite service has been rendered, as a market
condition does not represent a vesting condition.
See
Note 10. Stockholder’s Equity for further details.
Earnings
per Share
The Company calculates net loss per share based upon the weighted
average shares outstanding less issued and outstanding non-vested shares of Class A common stock for the period beginning May 17,
2019. Diluted earnings per share is calculated after giving effect to all potential dilutive shares outstanding during the period.
There were 2,849,804 and 2,277,466 potentially dilutive shares outstanding related to the issuance of OP Units and LTIP Units held
by non-controlling interests as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Future
Application of Accounting Standards
In
February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases; in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic
842, Leases, and ASU 2018-11, Leases — Targeted Improvements; and in December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20, Narrow-Scope
Improvements for Lessors. This group of ASUs is collectively referred to as Topic 842. Topic 842 supersedes the existing standards
for lease accounting (Topic 840, Leases). Topic 842 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2021 as a result of its classification
as an emerging growth company.
F- 14
POSTAL
REALTY TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(CONTINUED)
The
Company expects to elect the practical expedients provided by Topic 842, including: the package of practical expedients that allows
an entity not to reassess upon adoption (i) whether an expired or existing contract contains a lease, (ii) whether a lease classification
related to expired or existing lease arrangements, and (iii) whether costs incurred on expired or existing leases qualify as initial
direct costs, and as a lessor, the practical expedient not to separate certain non-lease components, such as common area maintenance,
from the lease component if the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the non-lease component and associated lease component,
and the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if accounted for separately.
Topic
842 requires lessees to record most leases on their balance sheet through a right-of-use (“ROU”) model, in which a
lessee records a ROU asset and a lease liability on their balance sheet. Leases that are less than 12 months do not need to be
accounted for under the ROU model. Lessees will account for leases as financing or operating leases, with the classification affecting
the timing and pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. Lease expense will be recognized based on the effective
interest method for leases accounted for as finance leases and on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease for leases
accounted for as operating leases. As of December 31, 2020, the Company was the lessee under one office lease and two ground leases
that would require accounting under the ROU model. Upon adoption of Topic 842, the Company expects to record a ROU asset and corresponding
lease liability of approximately $1.1 million on its Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The
accounting by a lessor under Topic 842 is largely unchanged from that of Topic 840. Under Topic 842, lessors will continue to
account for leases as a sales-type, direct-financing, or operating. A lease will be treated as a sale if it is considered to transfer
control of the underlying asset to the lessee. A lease will be classified as direct-financing if risks and rewards are conveyed
without the transfer of control. Otherwise, the lease is treated as an operating lease. Topic 842 requires accounting for a transaction
as a financing in a sale leaseback in certain circumstances, including when the seller-lessee is provided an option to purchase
the property from the landlord at the tenant’s option. The Company expects that this provision could change the accounting
for these types of leases in the future. Topic 842 also includes the concept of separating lease and non-lease components. Under
Topic 842, non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, would be accounted for under Topic 606 and separated from the
lease payments. However, the Company will elect the lessor practical expedient allowing the Company to not separate these components
when certain conditions are met. Upon adoption of Topic 842, the Company expects to combine tenant reimbursements with rental
income on its consolidated statements of operations.
In
September 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement
of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and in November 2018 issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic
326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses . The guidance changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial
assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance replaces the current
‘incurred loss’ model with an ‘expected loss’ approach. The Company will also be required to disclose
information about how it developed the allowances, including changes in the factors that influenced the Company’s estimate
of expected credit losses and the reasons for those changes. ASU No. 2018-19 excludes operating lease receivables from the scope
of this guidance. This guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2023 as a result of its classification as an emerging
growth company. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of the guidance will have on its
consolidated financial statements.

On September
27, 2019, the Company entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with People’s
United Bank, National Association, individually and as administrative agent, BMO Capital Markets Corp., as syndication agent,
and certain other lenders. The Credit Agreement provides for revolving commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million
with an accordion feature (“the Accordion Feature”) that permits the Company to borrow up to an additional $100.0
million for an aggregate total of $200.0 million, subject to customary terms and conditions, and a maturity date of September
27, 2023. On January 30, 2020, the Company amended the Credit Agreement in order to exercise a portion of the Accordion Feature
to increase the maximum amount available under the Credit Facility to $150.0 million, subject to the borrowing base properties
identified therein remaining unencumbered and subject to an enforceable lease. On June 25, 2020, the Company further
amended the Credit Agreement to revise, among other items, certain definitions and borrowing base calculations to increase
available capacity, as well as the restrictive covenant pertaining to Consolidated Tangible Net Worth (as defined in such
amendment). On November 24, 2020, the Company further amended the Credit Agreement to revise, among other items, certain definitions
and borrowing base calculations to allow leases other than the USPS as a Real Property subject to certain to certain limitations
(as defined in such amendment).
The
interest rates applicable to loans under the Credit Facility are, at our option, equal to either a base rate plus a margin ranging
from 0.7% to 1.4% per annum or LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.7% to 2.4% per annum, each based on a consolidated leverage
ratio. In addition, the Company paid, for the period through and including the calendar quarter ended March 31, 2020, an unused
facility fee on the revolving commitments under the Credit Facility of 0.75% per annum for the first $100 million and 0.25% per
annum for the portion of revolving commitments exceeding $100.0 million, and for the period thereafter, an unused facility fee
of 0.25% per annum for the aggregate unused revolving commitments, with both periods utilizing calculations of daily unused commitments
under the Credit Facility.
During
the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively, of unused fees related
to the Credit Facility. The Company’s ability to borrow under the Credit Facility is subject to ongoing compliance with
a number of customary affirmative and negative covenants. As of December 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all of the
Credit Facility’s debt covenants.

As of December
31, 2020, the one-month LIBOR rate was 0.15%.
(3)
Five properties
are collateralized under this loan as of December 31, 2020 with Mr. Spodek as the guarantor. On September 8, 2021 and
every five years thereafter, the interest rate will reset at a variable annual rate of Wall Street Journal Prime Rate (“Prime”)
+ 0.5%.

In connection
with the acquisition of a property, we obtained seller financing secured by the property in the amount of $0.4 million requiring
five annual payments of principal and interest of $105,661 with the first installment due on January 2, 2021 based on a 6.0%
interest rate per annum through January 2, 2025.
(7)
In connection
with the purchase of a 13-property portfolio, the Company obtained $4.5 million of mortgage financing, at a fixed interest
rate of 4.25% with interest only for the first 18 months, which resets in November 2026 to the greater of Prime or 4.25%.

The
loan is collateralized by first mortgage liens on 22 properties. Interest rates resets in January 2027 to the greater of Prime
or 4.25%.

As
of December 31, 2020, the Company’s consolidated balance sheets reflect a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the
amounts of $0.4 million, primarily related to the utilization of certain loss carryforwards by UPH through May 16, 2019. For the
years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company has accrued interest and penalties of $0.07 million and $0.06 million, respectively.
These balances are included in the combined consolidated balance sheets in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company estimates that unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by approximately $0.2 million within
twelve months of the balance sheet date due to expiring statutes of limitation. In connection with the IPO, the indirect sole
shareholder of UPH agreed to reimburse the Company for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company recorded an indemnification asset
in the same amount as the unrecognized tax benefits inclusive of accrued interest and penalties that existed as of the date of
the IPO. Accordingly, the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would result in a decrease to the indemnification
asset and have no impact on the effective tax rate. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reversed $0.1
million of unrecognized tax benefits inclusive of interest and penalties due to the expiration of statute of limitations, with
an offsetting adjustment to the indemnification asset.

in the CARES Act are tax provisions which increase allowable interest expense deductions for 2019 and 2020 and increase the ability
for taxpayers to use net operating losses. While we do not expect these provisions to have a material impact on the Company’s
taxable income or tax liabilities, we will continue to analyze the provisions of the CARES Act and related guidance as it is published.

10. Stockholder’s Equity
The
Company issued 4.5 million shares of Class A common stock in conjunction with the IPO resulting in net proceeds of approximately
$71.1 million after deducting approximately $5.4 million in underwriting discounts and before giving effect to $6.4 million in
other expenses relating to the IPO. In addition, the Company issued 637,058 shares of Class A common stock and 27,206 shares of
Voting Equivalency stock in connection with the Formation Transactions. Each outstanding share of Voting Equivalency stock entitles
its holder to 50 votes on all matters on which Class A common stockholders are entitled to vote, including the election of
directors, and holders of shares of Class A common stock and Voting Equivalency stock will vote together as a single class.
Shares of Voting Equivalency stock are convertible into shares of Class A common stock, on a one-for-one basis, at the election
of the holder at any time. Additionally, one share of Voting Equivalency stock will automatically convert into one share of Class A
common stock for each 49 OP Units transferred (including by the exercise of redemption rights afforded with respect to OP Units)
to a person other than a permitted transferee. This ratio is a function of the fact that each share of Voting Equivalency stock
entitles its holder to 50 votes on all matters on which Class A common stockholders are entitled to vote and maintains the
voting proportion of holders of Voting Equivalency stock with the holder’s economic interest in our Company.
On July 15, 2020, the
Company priced a public offering of 3.5 million shares of its Class A Common Stock (the “Follow-on Offering”) at $13.00
per share. On July 17, 2020, the underwriters purchased an additional 521,840 shares pursuant to a 30-day option to purchase up
to an additional 525,000 shares at $13.00 per share (the “Additional Shares”). The Follow-on Offering, including the
Additional Shares, closed on July 20, 2020 resulting in $52.2 million in gross proceeds, and approximately $49.4 million in net
proceeds after deducting approximately $2.9 million in underwriting discounts and before giving effect to $0.9 million in other
estimated expenses relating to the Follow-on Offering.
Dividends
During
the year ended December 31, 2020, the Board approved and the Company declared and paid dividends of $8.2 million to Class A common
stockholders, Voting Equivalency stockholders, OP unitholders and LTIP unitholders, or $0.79 per share as shown in the table below.

Non-controlling
Interests
Non-controlling
interests in the Company represent OP Units held by the Predecessor’s prior investors and certain sellers of properties
to the Company and LTIP Units primarily issued to the Company’s CEO in connection with the IPO and in lieu of cash compensation.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued 483,333 OP Units in January 2020 in connection with a portfolio that
the Company acquired, 53,230 LTIP Units in February 2020 to the Company’s CEO for his 2019 incentive bonus, 13,708 LTIP
Units in March 2020 to the Company’s CEO and 27,365 LTIP Units in May 2020 to the Company’s CEO for his salary
for the period of May 18, 2020 to December 31, 2020.
As
of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, non-controlling interests consisted of 2,640,795 OP Units and 209,009 LTIP Units
and 2,157,462 OP Units and 120,004 LTIP Units, respectively. This represented approximately 23.1% and 30.0% of the outstanding
Operating Partnership units as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Operating Partnership units and shares of common stock
have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of the
Operating Partnership. Beginning on or after the date which is 12 months after the later of (i) the completion of the IPO or (ii)
the date on which a person first became a holder of common units, each limited partner and assignees of limited partners will
have the right, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the partnership agreement to require the Operating Partnership
to redeem all or a portion of the OP Units held by such limited partner or assignee in exchange for cash, or at the Company’s
sole discretion, in shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, on a one-for-one basis determined in accordance with
and subject to adjustment under the partnership agreement.
The
Operating Partnership unitholders are entitled to share in cash distributions from the Operating Partnership in proportion to
their percentage ownership of OP Units.
Restricted
Stock and Other Awards

to the Company’s 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan” or the “Plan”), the Company
may grant equity incentive awards to its directors, officers, employees and consultants. The maximum number of shares of Class
A Common Stock that were authorized for issuance under the Plan were 541,584. On April 27, 2020, the Board of Directors amended
the Equity Incentive Plan to increase the total number of shares of Class A common stock that may be issued under the Plan from

stock appreciation rights, performance units, incentive awards, other equity-based awards (including LTIP units) and dividend
equivalents in connection with the grant of performance units and other equity-based awards.
