“Annualized Base Rent” or “ABR” means in-place monthly contractual base rent excluding rent abatements under leases as of November 4, 2024, multiplied by 12 months. For leases
that have a rent abatement period in effect as of November 4, 2024, the Company used the monthly contractual base rent payable following expiration of the abatement period.
|
| (2) |
“Investment grade” means an investment grade credit rating from a NRSRO approved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (e.g., Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P
Global Ratings and/or Fitch Ratings Inc.) or a non-NRSRO credit rating (e.g., Bloomberg’s default risk rating) that management believes is generally equivalent to an NRSRO investment grade rating; management can provide no assurance as to the
comparability of these ratings methodologies or that any particular rating for a company is indicative of the rating that a single NRSRO would provide in the event that it rated all companies for which the Company provides credit ratings; to
the extent such companies are rated only by non-NRSRO ratings providers, such ratings providers may use methodologies that are different and less rigorous than those applied by NRSROs. In the context of the Company’s portfolio, references to
“investment grade” include, and credit ratings provided by the Company may refer to, tenants, guarantors, and non-guarantor parent entities. There can be no assurance that such guarantors or parent entities will satisfy the tenant’s lease
obligations, and accordingly, any such credit rating may not be indicative of the creditworthiness of the Company's tenants.
