**CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). We intend for all such forward-looking statements to be covered by the applicable safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated expenses, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts, including statements relating to the growth of our industrial outdoor storage ("IOS") platform and the consummation of the Mergers (as defined below). In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "expects," "intends," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," or "potential" or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases which are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K reflect our current views about future events and are subject to numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and changes in circumstances that may cause our actual results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements: general economic and financial conditions; political uncertainty in the U.S.; the impact of tariffs and global trade disruptions on us and our tenants; market volatility; inflation; any potential recession or threat of recession; interest rates; disruption in the debt and banking markets; concentration in asset type; tenant concentration, geographic concentration, and the financial condition of our tenants; whether we are able to monitor the credit quality of our tenants and/or their parent companies and guarantors; competition for tenants and competition with sellers of similar properties if we elect to dispose of our properties; our access to, and the availability of capital; whether we will be able to refinance or repay debt; whether we will be successful in renewing leases or selling an applicable property, as leases expire; whether we will re-lease available space above or at current market rental rates; future financial and operating results; our ability to manage cash flows; our ability to manage expenses, including as a result of tenant failure to maintain our net-leased properties; dilution resulting from equity issuances; expected sources of financing, including the ability to maintain the commitments under our revolving credit facility, and the availability and attractiveness of the terms of any such financing; legislative and regulatory changes that could adversely affect our business; changes in zoning, occupancy, land use and safety regulations and/or changes in their applicability to our properties; cybersecurity incidents or disruptions to our or our third party information technology systems; our ability to maintain our status as a real estate investment trust (a "REIT") within the meaning of Section 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and our Operating Partnership as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes; our future capital expenditures, operating expenses, net income or loss, operating income, cash flow and developments and trends of the real estate industry; whether we will be successful in the pursuit of our objectives, expectations and intentions, including any acquisitions, investments, or dispositions, including our acquisition of industrial outdoor storage assets; whether we are able to identify, source or complete acquisitions on acceptable terms; our ability to meet budgeted or stabilized returns on our redevelopment projects within expected time frames, or at all; whether we will succeed in our investment objectives; whether we are able to successfully operate our industrial outdoor storage properties; any fluctuation and/or volatility of the trading price of our common shares; risks associated with our dependence on key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed; risks associated with our ability to obtain the shareholder approval required to consummate the Mergers and the timing of the closing, including the risks that a condition to closing will not be satisfied within the expected timeframe or at all or that the closing will not occur; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the parties to, and others related to, the Mergers and the Merger Agreement (as defined below); the risk that shareholder litigation in connection with the Mergers may affect the timing or occurrence of the Mergers or result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability; unanticipated difficulties or expenditures relating to the Mergers, the response of business partners and competitors to the announcement of the Mergers, potential difficulties in our ability to retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with tenants and other third parties as a result of the Mergers, and/or potential difficulties in employee retention as a result of the announcement and pendency of the Mergers; and other factors, including those risks disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" and Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this Annual Report.

While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs, assumptions and expectations, they are not guarantees of future performance. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, data or methods, future events or other changes after the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as required by applicable law. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which are based only on information currently available to us.

**Summary of Risk Factors**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Most of our properties are occupied by a single tenant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An inability to sell or re-lease properties could result in a material adverse effect on us.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Certain of our leases include early termination provisions in favor of our tenants.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our portfolio has geographic market and real estate sector concentrations that make us especially susceptible to adverse developments in those geographic markets and real estate sectors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may be unable to fully benefit from increases in market rental rates because certain of our leases contain fixed renewal rates or limitations on market rental rate resets upon renewal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to fully control the maintenance of our net-leased properties may be limited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We face significant competition for tenants.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not be able to successfully manage, lease and develop our IOS properties that we acquired.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Properties we acquire or invest in may require development or redevelopment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may suffer adverse effects from acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties if such properties fail to perform as expected or market conditions deteriorate, particularly with respect to investments in new markets and new business lines.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are uncertain of our sources of funding for our future capital needs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may be unable to identify, source or complete acquisitions on acceptable terms entirely.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• To the extent we are unable to identify and/or pass along our property operating expenses to our tenants, our business, financial condition and results of operations, may be negatively impacted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not be able to control the extent of warranties and indemnities we may be required to provide when disposing of properties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Property ownership through joint ventures and partnerships could limit control of those investments, which could adversely affect our ability to manage such properties and related business.

**PART I**

**ITEM 1. BUSINESS**

*The use herein of the words "PKST," "the Company," "Peakstone," "we," "us," and "our" refer to Peakstone Realty Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust, and its subsidiaries, including PKST OP L.P., our operating partnership (our "Operating Partnership"), except where the context otherwise requires.*

**Overview**

Peakstone Realty Trust (NYSE: PKST) is an industrial real estate investment trust ("REIT"), with a strategic focus on growth in the industrial outdoor storage ("IOS") sector.

PKST OP, L.P., our operating partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), owns, directly and indirectly all of the Company's assets. As of December 31, 2025, the Company owned, directly and indirectly through a wholly-owned subsidiary, approximately 93.2% of the outstanding common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership ("OP Units").

As of December 31, 2025, our portfolio consisted of 76 industrial properties within one reportable segment (the "Industrial" segment). The portfolio included 60 IOS properties and 16 Traditional Industrial properties. IOS properties have a low building-to-land ratio, or low coverage, maximizing yard space for the display, movement and storage of materials and equipment. "Traditional Industrial" properties include distribution, warehouse, and light manufacturing facilities. Of the 76 properties in our portfolio, 72 were operating properties and four were designated for redevelopment or repositioning.

During 2025, the Company completed its strategic transformation to an industrial-only REIT through the disposition of all properties in its Office segment. As a result, the Office segment was eliminated as of December 31, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the Company's plan to dispose of its Office segment properties represented a strategic shift in its business that met the criteria for classification as discontinued operations. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2025, 27 Office segment properties were classified as discontinued operations (the "Office Discontinued Operations Properties"). The Company presented the results of the Office segment through the year ended December 31, 2025, with results attributable to the Office Discontinued Operations Properties presented separately as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

**Proposed Mergers**

On February 2, 2026, we and the Operating Partnership (collectively, the "Company Parties"), BSREP V Neon Pooling REIT L.P., BSREP V Neon Pooling Non-REIT L.P. and BSREP V Brookfield Neon Sub L.P., each a Delaware limited partnership (collectively, "Parent"), Neon REIT Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a subsidiary of Parent ("REIT Merger Sub"), and Neon OP Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a subsidiary of Parent ("Operating Merger Sub" and, collectively with REIT Merger Sub and Parent, the "Parent Parties"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement").

The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (i) Operating Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Operating Partnership, with the Operating Partnership surviving the merger (the "Surviving Partnership" and such merger, the "Partnership Merger") and (ii) immediately following the consummation of the Partnership Merger, REIT Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger (the "Surviving Entity" and such merger, the "Company Merger" and, together with the Partnership Merger, the "Mergers"). Upon completion of the Company Merger, Parent (or subsidiaries thereof) will be the sole common shareholders of the Surviving Entity, and the Surviving Partnership will be wholly owned by Parent and the Surviving Entity (or subsidiaries thereof).

The Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were unanimously approved and declared advisable by the Board of Trustees (the "Board") of the Company.

At the effective time of the Company Merger (the "Company Merger Effective Time"), each common share, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $21.00 per share, without interest.

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Partnership Merger (the "Partnership Merger Effective Time"), each common unit of the Operating Partnership (each, an "Operating Partnership Common Unit") that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the REIT Shares Amount (as defined in the Eighth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the Operating

Partnership, dated as of April 13, 2023, by and between the Company and the limited partners party thereto, as amended, in effect on such date with respect to such Operating Partnership Common Units) multiplied by (ii) $21.00, without interest.

The Merger Agreement contains customary termination rights, including the right of either party to terminate the Merger Agreement if the Mergers have not been completed by 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on August 2, 2026, or if shareholder approval has not been obtained upon a vote taken at a shareholders meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

In certain specified circumstances further described in the Merger Agreement, in connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement, the Company will be required to pay Parent a termination payment of $16.0 million or $34.0 million, as applicable pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

The Parent Parties have secured committed financing, consisting of a combination of (i) equity financing to be provided by investment funds affiliated with Parent on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in an equity commitment letter provided by such funds, and (ii) debt financing to be provided by certain lenders on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in a debt commitment letter, the aggregate proceeds of which will be sufficient for the Parent Parties to pay all amounts the Parent Parties may be obligated to pay pursuant to the Merger Agreement or the Mergers.

**Our Business Strategy**

Our business strategy is to operate, enhance, and grow our industrial portfolio, with a strategic emphasis on IOS assets. We focus on disciplined capital allocation and financial flexibility.

**Competition**

The commercial real estate markets in which we operate are highly competitive. We compete against owners and managers of competing properties in leasing space to prospective tenants and in re-leasing space to existing tenants. There are numerous public and private real estate investors, developers, and financial institutions, some of which have greater financial or other resources than we do, that compete with us for acquisition, disposition, and investment opportunities.

**Regulatory Matters**

***Overview***

Our business is subject to many laws and governmental regulations. Changes in these laws and regulations, or their interpretation by agencies and courts, occur frequently. We and any of our operating subsidiaries that we may form may be subject to state and local tax in states and localities in which they or we do business or own property. The tax treatment of us, our Operating Partnership, any of our operating subsidiaries we may form and the holders of our shares in local jurisdictions may differ from our U.S. federal income tax treatment.

***Tax***

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the "Code", commencing with our tax year ended December 31, 2015. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements. The Company intends to adhere to these requirements and maintain its REIT status for the current year and subsequent years. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income taxes on taxable income that is distributed to shareholders. However, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income, if any. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will then be subject to federal income taxes on the taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect net income and net cash available for the payment of dividends to shareholders. As of December 31, 2025, the Company believes it has satisfied the REIT requirements and distributed all of its taxable income. Pursuant to the Code, the Company has elected to treat its corporate subsidiary as a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"). In general, the TRS may perform non-customary services for the Company's tenants and may engage in any real estate or non-real estate-related business. The TRS will be subject to corporate federal and state income tax.

***Environmental Matters***

Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or former owner or operator of real property may be held liable for the performance of or costs of removing or remediating hazardous substances or wastes. These laws often impose strict, joint and several clean-up responsibility and liability, without regard to causation. The costs of investigating, removing or remediating these substances or wastes may be substantial, and we may not have sufficient, or any,

insurance to cover such costs. We may be required to pay the costs of removing or remediating these hazardous substances or wastes from properties we acquire, which may be greater than those initially expected at the time of acquisition, including those conditions that existed prior to our acquisition or where tenants fail to address issues they are contractually obligated to do so. The presence of these hazardous substances or wastes may adversely affect our ability to use, lease or sell the property, or to borrow using the property as collateral, and may expose us to liability resulting from a release of or exposure to these hazardous substances or wastes, any of which could result in expenditures and could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, we may incur costs and liabilities associated with the transportation, disposal or treatment of hazardous substances or wastes, claims by third parties based on damages resulting from environmental contamination emanating from one of our properties, or liability in connection with the handling or exposure to hazardous substances or wastes. We maintain pollution legal liability insurance for all of our properties including coverage for cleanup costs, bodily injury and property damage from new and pre-existing conditions, however, some pre-existing conditions and some activities and uses may be excluded from coverage for certain properties.

Various states and municipalities have adopted laws and policies on climate change and emission reduction targets. For example, since October 2023, California passed several bills that require certain companies that do business in California to disclose their GHG emissions and climate-related financial risks starting in 2026. If we are unable to meet the required emissions reductions or provide the required disclosure, we may be subject to material fines that will continue to be assessed each year we fail to comply. In addition, regulations and other expectations related to environmental matters and climate change are not uniform, and may be inconsistently interpreted or applied, which can increase the complexity and costs of compliance as well as any associated litigation or enforcement risks.

***Other Regulations***

The properties we own and operate generally are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as zoning, occupancy and land use regulations and state and local fire and life safety requirements. Failure to comply with these requirements could result in the imposition of fines by governmental authorities or an award of damages to private litigants. Local regulations, including municipal or local ordinances and zoning restrictions, may restrict our use of our properties and may require us to obtain approval from local officials of community standards organizations at any time with respect to our properties, including prior to acquiring a property, when undertaking renovations to any of our existing properties or upon a change of tenant. Among other things, these restrictions may relate to fire and safety, seismic or hazardous material abatement requirements. Through our due diligence process and protections in our leases, we aim to own and operate properties that are in material compliance with all such regulatory requirements, including all zoning, occupancy and land use requirements. However, we cannot assure our shareholders that these requirements will not be changed or that new requirements will not be imposed, which would require significant unanticipated expenditures by us and could have a material adverse effect on us.

We conduct our operations so that we and our subsidiaries are not required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and monitor the structure and nature of our assets so that we do not come within the definition of an "investment company" under the 1940 Act. If we or our subsidiaries fail to maintain an exception or exemption from the 1940 Act, we may be required to, among other things, substantially change the manner in which we conduct our operations to avoid being required to register as an investment company under the 1940 Act or register as an investment company under the 1940 Act.

***Americans with Disabilities Act***

We are subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (the "ADA"). Under the ADA, all public accommodations and commercial facilities are required to meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Failing to comply with the ADA, including any requirements for public accommodations and commercial facilities could result in the imposition of fines by the federal government or an award of damages to private litigants. Through our due diligence process and protections in our leases, we aim to ensure compliance with laws, including the ADA. However we cannot assure our shareholders that this will always be the case when we acquire properties, and we may incur additional costs to comply with the ADA or other regulations related to access by disabled persons. Although we believe that these costs will not have a material adverse effect on us, if required changes or litigation involve a greater amount of expenditures than we currently anticipate, it could have a material adverse effect on us.

**Human Capital Management**

We are internally managed by an experienced team that specializes in industrial properties. As of December 31, 2025, we employed 40 people. We believe our employees are our greatest asset. Because of this perspective, we have implemented several programs to foster their professional growth and their growth as global citizens.

We offer all our full time employees a comprehensive benefits and wellness package, which includes paid time off and parental leave, high-quality medical, dental and vision insurance, disability and life insurance, wellness allowance, 401(k) and long-term incentive plans. We also encourage internal mobility in our organization and provide career enhancement and education opportunities, as well as professional development grants.

We draw from the largest pools of talent to help find the best people for our company. As of December 31, 2025, approximately 53% of our employees were people of color/minorities and approximately 47% were women. In addition, as of December 31, 2025, the majority of our five-member Board was composed of women and/or minorities.

Our cultural values extend beyond the individuals within our organization and encourages our employees to have a positive impact on the community around us. Throughout our organization, we have a shared passion and dedication to giving back to the communities in which we live and work.

**ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS**

*Shareholders should carefully consider the following risks in evaluating our company and our common shares. If any of the following risks were to occur, our business, prospects, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, cash flow, ability to satisfy our debt obligations, returns to our shareholders, the value of our shareholders' investment in us and/or our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders could be materially and adversely affected, which we refer herein collectively as having a "material adverse effect on us" and comparable phrases. Some statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including statements in the following risk factors, constitute forward-looking statements. Refer to the section entitled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" for additional information regarding these forward-looking statements.*

**Risks Related to Our Business**

***Most of our properties are occupied by a single tenant; therefore, for each such property, income generated by that property is dependent on the financial stability of a single tenant and/or its parent companies and guarantors, as applicable. Many events affecting our tenants and/or their respective parent companies and guarantors, as applicable, could have a material adverse effect on us, including the bankruptcy, insolvency, or a general downturn in the business of a tenant, a lease termination or election by a tenant not to renew, or other events affecting our tenants leading to non-payment of rent or failure to perform required lease obligations.***

The majority of our revenues and income come from rental income from real property. Our properties are primarily leased to single tenants or will derive a majority of their rental income from single tenants and, therefore, the income generated by these properties, and our revenues, are materially dependent on the financial stability of our tenants and/or their parent companies and guarantors, as applicable.

Any event of bankruptcy, insolvency, or a general downturn in the business of any of our tenants and/or their parent companies and guarantors, as applicable, could have a material adverse effect on us. Our ability to manage our assets is subject to federal and state bankruptcy, insolvency and receivership laws that limit creditors' rights and remedies available to real property owners to collect delinquent rents and/or gain possession of a property. If a tenant becomes insolvent or bankrupt, that could diminish the income we receive from that tenant's lease and we cannot be sure that we could recover the premises from the tenant promptly or from a trustee or debtor-in-possession in any bankruptcy proceeding relating to that tenant. We also cannot be sure that we will receive any rent in any such proceeding sufficient to cover our expenses and future income expectations with respect to the premises. If a tenant becomes bankrupt, the federal bankruptcy code or applicable state bankruptcy code will apply and, in some instances, may restrict the amount and recoverability of our claims against the tenant, as well as our ability to access the property and re-lease the property to a new tenant. In addition, we may incur expenses, including property taxes, all of which could have a material adverse effect on us.

Additionally, a default by a tenant relating to rental payments or other lease obligations, or the failure of a guarantor to fulfill its obligations or a premature termination of a lease, could have a material adverse effect on us. In the event of a tenant default, a termination of, or failure to renew a lease, as applicable, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment and re-letting the property, for expenses relating to the property and/or experience a decrease in value of a property if we determine to sell such property while it is vacant.

***We currently rely on five tenants for approximately 40% of our revenue and adverse effects to their business, including a tenant's bankruptcy or insolvency, a general downturn in a tenant's business, a lease termination or election by a tenant not to renew, or other events affecting our tenants, could have a material adverse effect on us.***

Our five largest tenants, based on Annualized Base Rent as of December 31, 2025, were Amazon (approximately 13.0%), RH (approximately 10.0%), 3M (approximately 6.7%), Samsonite (approximately 6.0%), and PepsiCo (approximately 4.3%). The revenues generated by the properties leased and/or guaranteed by these companies are substantially reliant upon the financial condition of such companies, either because they are the tenant at such properties or the parent-guarantor, and, accordingly, any event of bankruptcy, insolvency, or a general downturn in the business of any of these tenants or the relevant parent-guarantor, a default by a tenant, the failure of a guarantor to fulfill its obligations, a premature termination of a lease, or a tenant's election not to extend a lease upon its expiration, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

***Leases representing approximately a third of our Annualized Base Rent as of December 31, 2025 are scheduled to expire in the next three years. An inability to sell or re-lease such properties could result in a material adverse effect on us. Also, vacancies increase our exposure to downturns in the real estate market during the time that we are trying to sell or re-lease such space, could increase our capital expenditure requirements during the sale or re-leasing period, as applicable, and result in unfavorable terms in connection with the sale or re-leasing, as applicable, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us.***

Leases representing approximately one-third of our Annualized Base Rent as of December 31, 2025 are scheduled to expire in the next three years. We may be required to increase capital expenditures or accept unfavorable terms in connection with the

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

re-leasing of properties, particularly during periods of downturns in the real estate market and periods of concentrations in our lease expirations. As the expiration date of a lease for a building solely or primarily leased to a single tenant approaches, the value of the property generally declines because of the risk that the building may not be re-leased upon expiration of the existing lease or may not be re-leased on terms as favorable as those of the current lease(s). Therefore, if we were to sell any of these assets prior to the favorable re-leasing of the space or without electing to invest additional capital to redevelop a space, we may be forced to re-lease or sell these assets for relatively unfavorable terms and suffer a loss on our investment. In addition, following the investment of additional capital to redevelop a space, we may determine to sell these assets on terms less favorable than we expected, resulting in an even greater loss on our investment.

An inability to sell or re-lease a space on favorable terms could adversely impact the value of our properties and have a material adverse effect on us. The occurrence of any of the foregoing risks could have a material adverse effect on us.

***Certain of our leases include early termination provisions in favor of our tenants.***

As of December 31, 2025, we had four leases with unexercised early termination provisions, representing approximately $3.0 million of Annualized Base Rent (or 3.8% of our total Annualized Base Rent) and covering approximately 259,000 square feet (or 3.1% of the total square footage of our Traditional Industrial properties) and approximately 5.8 usable acres (or 1.2% of the total usable acres of our operating IOS properties).

The exercise of an early termination provision typically requires advance notification from the tenant (usually 6-12 months) and is frequently accompanied by the payment of a termination fee that reimburses us for a portion of the remaining rent under the original lease term. Termination fee income, included in rental income, is recognized on a straight-line basis from the date of the executed termination agreement through the revised lease expiration date when the amount of the fee is determinable and collectability of the fee is probable. This fee income is adjusted on a straight-line basis by any deferred rent related to the lease. We may re-lease the vacated space or sell the associated property after the exercise of an early termination provision. However, we may experience delays and incur substantial costs in re-letting the space or experience a decrease in value of a property if the Company determines to sell such property while it is partially or completely vacant. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to lease the property for the rent previously received or sell the property without incurring a loss due to it being partially or completely vacant. Over the past two years, only one tenant leasing approximately 119,000 square feet of an office property, exercised its early termination right.

***Our portfolio has geographic market and real estate sector concentrations that make us especially susceptible to adverse developments in those geographic markets and real estate sectors.***

In addition to general, regional, national and international economic conditions, our business, financial condition, and results of operations are impacted by the economic conditions of the specific geographic markets and real estate sectors in which we have concentrations of properties. We have significant property concentrations based on Annualized Base Rent as of December 31, 2025 in Georgia (16.0%), Florida (14.7%), Illinois (12.3%), Ohio (10.4%), and California (10.0%). As of December 31, 2025, our industrial properties, including industrial outdoor storage ("IOS") properties, made up 100% of our Annualized Base Rent. As described elsewhere in this Annual Report, our objective is to focus on growth in the IOS sector, and, accordingly, a growing portion of our portfolio (approximately 40.8% based on Annualized Base Rent as of December 31, 2025) is comprised of IOS assets. While we believe that industrial assets generally have shown positive trends, we cannot give any assurance that these trends will continue. Any developments or circumstances that adversely affect the value of industrial assets generally could have a more significant adverse impact on us than if our portfolio was diversified by asset type, which could have a material adverse effect on us. In particular, our focus on IOS assets increases our exposure to risks unique to the IOS subsector, including heightened competition for acquisitions, exposure to complex legal and regulatory requirements, including environmental, zoning, occupancy, land use and other governmental regulations, and environmental risks, all of which could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, investor interest in IOS as an asset class may be limited or volatile, which could suppress demand for our shares, contribute to a valuation discount relative to net asset value, reduce trading volume or slow multiple expansion.

In the future, we may experience additional geographic and/or sector concentrations, which could adversely affect us if conditions become less favorable in any of the states or markets within such states in which we have a concentration of properties. We cannot assure you that any of our markets will grow, not experience adverse developments or that such markets will not become less desirable to investors. Our business, financial condition and results of operations may also be affected if competing properties are built, redeveloped or become more desirable than our properties in such markets. A downturn in the economy in the states, regions or sectors in which we have a concentration of properties, or markets within such states or regions, could adversely affect our tenants operating businesses in those states, impair their ability to pay rent to us and materially and adversely affect us.

***We may be unable to fully benefit from increases in market rental rates because certain of our leases contain fixed renewal rates or limitations on market rental rate resets upon renewal. Furthermore, we may be unable to renew expiring leases, or re-lease available space, above or at current market rental rates.***

------

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

Based on Annualized Base Rent, as of December 31, 2025, our weighted average lease term was approximately 4.5 years and approximately 94.9% of our leases contain fixed rental rate increases. During periods of high inflation, fixed rental rate increases subject us to the risk of receiving lower rental revenue than we otherwise would have been entitled to receive if the rental rate increases were based on an increase in the consumer price index over a specified period. In addition, our leases may contain provisions (including caps, collars, fixed increases, etc.) that may limit our ability to reset rental rates to market rental rates upon expiration of the periods of fixed rental rate increases. Furthermore, we may be unable to renew expiring leases, or re-lease available space, above or at current market rental rates. There is no assurance that expiring leases will be renewed or that available space will be re-leased above, below or at current market rental rates. Any inability to take advantage of increases in market rental rates, whether in connection with existing or new leases, could adversely impact the value of our properties and the market price of our common shares and could have a material adverse effect on us.

***Our ability to fully control the maintenance of our net-leased properties may be limited.*** 

The majority of our leases provide that tenants of our net-leased properties are responsible for some or all of the maintenance and other day-to-day management of the relevant properties or their premises, including costs associated with common area maintenance. In addition, some of our leases provide for reimbursement from tenants for common area maintenance provided by us. If a property is not adequately maintained in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease, or if there is any damage discovered or incurred in connection with or after the time of surrender, we may incur expenses for deferred maintenance or other liabilities, including upon expiration or earlier termination of a lease. We generally visit our properties on an annual basis, but these visits are not comprehensive inspections and deferred maintenance items may go unnoticed. In addition, a tenant may refuse or be unable to pay for any required maintenance for a property or its premises, or refuse to reimburse amounts owed under their leases, which may result in the Company needing to cover such costs. While our leases generally provide for protection in these instances, a tenant may defer maintenance and it may be difficult to enforce remedies against such a tenant.

***We face significant competition for tenants, which may decrease or prevent increases of the occupancy and rental rates of our properties. Furthermore, at the time we elect to sell our properties, we will also be in competition with sellers of similar properties to locate suitable purchasers for our properties. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on us.***

The commercial real estate markets in which we operate are highly competitive. The leasing of real estate is also often highly competitive, and we may experience competition for tenants from owners and managers of competing properties. An oversupply of properties in the industries and geographies in which we concentrate could further increase competition. As a result, we may have to reduce our rental rates or to offer more substantial rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights, below-market renewal options or other lease incentive payments or we might not be able to timely lease the space. If our competitors offer space at rental rates below current market rates or below the rental rates we currently charge our tenants, we may lose existing or potential tenants and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates or to offer more substantial rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights, below-market renewal options or other lease incentives in order to retain tenants when our leases expire. Competition for companies that may lease or guarantee our properties could decrease or prevent increases of the occupancy and rental rates of our properties.

Furthermore, at the time we elect to sell our properties, we will also be in competition with sellers of similar properties to locate suitable purchasers for our properties. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on us.

***We may not be able to successfully manage, lease and develop our IOS properties.***

As described elsewhere in this Annual Report, our objective is to focus on growth in the IOS sector. Accordingly, we have acquired, and may continue to, from time to time, acquire, IOS properties or other industrial assets or otherwise expand our industrial strategy. The continued acquisition of IOS properties or other industrial assets expose us to certain risks, including, but not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exposure to complex legal and regulatory requirements, including environmental, zoning, occupancy, land use and other governmental regulations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exposure to existing environmental issues, which may require removing or remediating hazardous or toxic substances;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate acquired properties into our existing operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exposure to tenants in industries with which we do not have prior experience;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• market conditions may result in higher than expected vacancy rates and lower than expected rental rates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exposure to risks associated with the need to develop or redevelop properties in order for such properties to be leased by a new tenant, including the risk that our development or redevelopment costs may be impacted by tariffs and that we may spend more than budgeted amounts to make necessary improvements or renovations to such properties; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our management team may need to allocate significant time and resources and may encounter challenges supporting, leasing, and/or developing these assets, which could divert attention from our existing operations.

------

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

If we are unable to effectively manage these challenges, it could have a material adverse effect on us.

***Properties we acquire or invest in may require development or redevelopment.***

Properties we acquire or invest in may require development or redevelopment. The development or redevelopment of such properties is subject to various risks, including the following, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• time required to complete the development or redevelopment of a property or to lease up the completed project may be greater than originally anticipated, which may result in increased debt service expense and additional downtime and expense carry costs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• cost overruns or delays, including as a result of a delay in obtaining construction materials, may occur due to tariffs, contractor pricing, supply constraints or labor availability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• lease commencements may be delayed, rents may not meet our projections and the project may perform below anticipated levels, thereby adversely impacting our cash flows;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may face delays or difficulties with respect to complying with applicable zoning regulations and obtaining and maintaining necessary occupancy, land use and other governmental permissions and permits;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• contractor and subcontractor disputes, strikes, lack of available labor, labor disputes or supply chain disruptions may occur;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may need the consent of third parties such as mortgage lenders and joint venture partners, and those consents may be withheld;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• newly acquired properties may be subject to ongoing legal proceedings; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• speculative development, redevelopment or expansions may fail to appeal to the prospective users in the market in which they are located.

If a development or redevelopment of a property is unsuccessful, either because we do not receive the rents we expected or are unable to lease the property, then we could experience a material adverse effect on us.

Additionally, the development or redevelopment of a property may be time consuming and experience delays. A property may need to remain vacant during the period of development or redevelopment and we may not receive any rental income during such period.

The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on us.

***We may suffer adverse effects from acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties if such properties fail to perform as expected or market conditions deteriorate, particularly with respect to investments in new markets and new business lines.***

We may pursue acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties as part of our business plan. Acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties entail risks, such as the risk that such properties fail to perform as expected.

We may pursue acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties in regions where we have not previously owned properties, including outside of the United States. This could create risks in addition to those we face in more familiar regions, such as our not complying with the applicable rules and regulations in such markets or not sufficiently anticipating conditions or trends in a new market and, therefore a property not operating profitably.

The underlying definitive agreements for these acquisitions or investments may include provisions or risks that could exacerbate these challenges. For example, we may acquire properties and/or invest in properties that are subject to liabilities in situations where we have no recourse, or only limited recourse, against the prior owners, co-investors or other third parties with respect to unknown liabilities. The seller of real property will typically seek to sell such real property in its "as is" condition on a "where is" basis and "with all faults," without any warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular use or purpose. In addition, purchase agreements typically contain limited warranties, representations and indemnifications that will only survive for a limited period after the closing and subject to a floor and cap. As a result, if a liability were asserted against us based upon ownership of or interest in those properties, we might have to pay substantial sums to settle or contest it if we have no recourse, or only limited recourse, against the prior owners.

We may pursue acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties for which we are unable to secure traditional financing on terms and conditions acceptable to us. Accordingly, we may be required to seek alternative sources of financing. Such non-traditional financing may not be available on terms and conditions that are as favorable as traditional lending sources.

We may pursue acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties that represent a new business line for us or which have characteristics that differ from our current portfolio. Such acquisitions and/or investments may present new challenges for us and pose risks additional to the risks described above, including exposure to additional governmental regulation with which

------

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

we may not have prior experience, negative reactions by market participants, and a perceived disadvantage in negotiating with existing and prospective tenants, among others. In addition, gaining familiarity with a new business line may require significant time and focus from our management team and may divert attention from the day-to-day operations of our existing business.

Additionally, we may not be able to successfully implement appropriate operational, financial and management systems and controls to achieve the benefits expected to result from the acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties in new markets. If acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties do not perform as expected or market conditions deteriorate, there may be a material adverse effect on us.

***We are uncertain of our sources of funding for our future capital needs. If we cannot obtain funding on acceptable terms, it could affect our ability to make necessary capital improvements to our properties, pursue acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties as part of our business plan, pay our expenses, pay dividends, expand our business or otherwise have a material adverse effect on us.***

To continue to qualify as a REIT, we generally must distribute to our shareholders at least 90% of our taxable income each year, excluding capital gains. Because of this dividend requirement, it is not likely that we will be able to fund a significant portion of our future capital needs from retained earnings. We have not identified all of our sources of funding, and such sources of funding may not be available to us on favorable terms or at all. If we do not have access to sufficient funding in the future, our ability to make necessary capital improvements to our properties, pursue acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties as part of our business plan, pay our expenses, including such expenses related to our outstanding indebtedness, pay dividends or expand our business may be impaired or delayed.

***To the extent we are unable to identify and/or pass along our property operating expenses to our tenants, our business, financial condition and results of operations, may be negatively impacted.***

Operating expenses associated with owning a property typically include real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, maintenance, repair and renovation costs, the cost of compliance with governmental regulation (including complying with applicable zoning regulations and obtaining and maintaining necessary occupancy, land use and other governmental permissions) and the potential for liability under applicable laws. We generally lease our properties to tenants pursuant to triple-net leases that require the tenant to pay for the aforementioned property operating expenses directly, reimburse us for operating expenses incurred on tenant's behalf, or pay their proportionate share of substantially all such property operating expenses. However, on a limited basis we lease our properties to tenants pursuant to leases that do not pass along all such property operating expenses. We have mostly entered into leases pursuant to which we retain responsibility for the costs of structural repairs and maintenance. If we fail to identify and/or if there is an increase in property operating expenses that we are unable to pass along to our tenants promptly or at all, then our business, financial condition and results of operations could be negatively impacted. Similarly, vacancy in our portfolio would negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations, as we would be responsible for all property operating expenses that we have formerly passed on to our tenants. Additionally, a failure to adequately oversee and maintain property-level documentation, including leases, titles or environmental documentation, could result in a failure to identify operating expenses, compliance issues and additional liabilities, which may lead to defaults, liens and unrecoverable costs.

***We may be unable to identify, source or complete acquisitions on acceptable terms entirely.***

We may be unable to identify, source or complete acquisitions on acceptable terms. Our ability to grow externally depends on identifying a sufficient number of attractive acquisition opportunities and winning competitive processes, including sourcing off-market or lightly marketed transactions. We may experience reduced deal flow, lose processes to competing buyers, or be unable to execute transactions due to market volatility or capital constraints. An inability to adequately deploy capital as it becomes available could hamper our growth trajectory and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***We may not be able to control the extent of warranties and indemnities we may be required to provide when disposing of properties.***

We may seek to sell certain properties, and in some circumstances market conditions may impact the terms on which we are able to sell properties, which may require us to provide warranties, representations and covenants, and agree to indemnification obligations or to retain certain liabilities, in order to complete such dispositions. The overall size of our post-closing indemnification and retained liability obligations to purchasers may increase, and no assurance can be given that the extent of such indemnification obligations and retained liabilities will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on us.

***Property ownership through joint ventures and partnerships could limit control of those investments, which could adversely affect our ability to manage such properties and related business.***

------

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

Property ownership through joint ventures or partnerships involve risks that would not be present were a third party not involved. It is possible that the Company's partners or co-venturers could have economic or other business interests or goals that are inconsistent with our own business interests or goals, and could be in a position to take actions contrary to our policies or objectives. Joint ventures and partnerships have the potential risk of creating impasses on decisions, such as a sale, financing or development, if neither we nor our partner or other owner has full control over the partnership or joint venture. Disputes between us and partners or other owners might result in litigation or arbitration that could increase our expenses and divert the attention of management. Consequently, actions by, or disputes with, partners or other owners might result in subjecting properties owned pursuant to a joint venture to additional risk. In addition, joint ventures and partnerships expose the Company to the risk of possibly being liable for the actions of our partners or other owners.

Other risks of joint ventures or partnership investments include the possibility that partners or other owners might become bankrupt or suffer a deterioration in their creditworthiness, or fail to fund their share of required capital contributions. If one of our partners or other owners in these investments were to become bankrupt, we may be precluded from taking certain actions regarding our investments without prior court approval, which at a minimum may delay the actions we would or may desire to take.

***We may not be able to effectively monitor the credit quality, or identify material changes in the credit quality, of tenants and/or their parent companies and guarantors, as applicable.***

We actively monitor the creditworthiness of our tenants and/or their respective parent companies and guarantors, as applicable, to the extent we are able given available information to identify any material changes in quality and circumstances that could negatively impact the tenant's ability to satisfy its lease obligations. Our monitoring efforts include a routine review of the credit ratings of each tenant and/or its parent companies and guarantors, as applicable, that are available through public databases published by various rating agencies. When such credit ratings are not available, we utilize Bloomberg, a third-party database, to assess the implied credit ratings of each tenant and/or its parent companies and guarantors, as applicable. We also use our own internal processes for monitoring and identifying changes in potential tenant credit risk, which include a review of the financial statements (when available) of each tenant and/or its parent companies and guarantors, as applicable, insurance certificates and other documentation required by each lease, public disclosures and market information (e.g., SEC filings, press releases and investor calls) of each tenant and/or its parent companies and guarantors, as applicable, and general market intelligence involving micro-economic and macro-economic conditions that may impact the tenant and/or its parent companies and guarantors, as applicable. Notwithstanding our efforts, we are limited in the information available with respect to any given tenant and/or its parent companies and guarantors, as applicable, and accordingly we may not be able to verify the credit quality of a tenant and/or their parents and guarantors or effectively monitor the credit quality, or identify material changes in the credit quality, of our tenant and/or their parent companies and guarantors, as applicable.

Additionally, in certain instances, we may enter into and/or assume leases that do not include a credit party guaranty. As a result, we may be exposed to a greater risk from such leases.

***We may own or invest in special use single tenant properties, and, as such, it may be difficult to re-lease or sell these properties, which could have a material adverse effect on us.***

Some of our assets have special uses. Special use properties may be relatively illiquid compared to other types of real estate and financial assets. Upon expiration or early termination of a lease, this illiquidity could limit our ability to quickly pivot in response to changes in economic, market or other conditions to an even greater extent than the typically illiquid nature of real estate assets. With these properties, we may be required to renovate or demolish a vacant property in order to try to re-lease or sell it, grant rent or other concessions and/or make significant capital expenditures to improve these properties in order to retain existing tenants or attract new tenants following a lease expiration. In addition, in the event we determine it is best to sell the property, we may have difficulty selling it to a party other than the company that has leased the property, such company's parent and/or the company that has guaranteed the lease of the property due to the special purpose for which the property may have been designed. Furthermore, we may be unable to sell special use properties on favorable terms as a result of such special uses. These and other limitations could have a material adverse effect on us and may affect our ability to re-lease or sell these properties.

***We may not be able to produce reliable forecasts or forward-looking guidance due to limited resources, shorter lease terms and the credit profile of our tenants, which could weaken investor confidence, reduce our valuation, and have a material adverse effect on us.***

Limited financial planning and analysis resources, together with constraints on forward-looking analysis, may impair our ability to produce reliable budgets, forecasts, and external guidance. These limitations could reduce the accuracy and timeliness of our financial planning and public guidance, weaken analyst coverage and investor confidence, and adversely affect the market price of our common shares. We may also face challenges preparing and communicating earnings guidance due to shorter lease terms, the credit profile of certain tenants, the timing of acquisitions and dispositions, and the timing and collectability of tenant rent and other cash receipts. Variability in lease rollover, renewal timing and tenant credit can reduce the predictability of our

cash flows, which may limit our willingness or ability to provide forward-looking guidance or could result in guidance that is missed, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us.

***We depend on current key personnel for our future success, and the loss of such personnel or inability to attract and retain personnel could harm our business and the loss of services of one or more members of our executive management team, or our inability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel, could adversely affect our business, diminish our investment opportunities and weaken our business relationships with lenders, business partners, companies that may lease or guarantee our properties and other industry participants, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us.***

Our future success will depend in large part on our ability to attract and retain a sufficient number of qualified personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we cannot assure shareholders that we will be successful in attracting and retaining such skilled personnel. Our future success also depends upon the service of our executive leadership team, who we believe have extensive market knowledge and business relationships and will exercise substantial influence over the Company's operating, financing, acquisition, disposition and investment activity. Among the reasons that they are important to our success is that we believe that each has a national or regional industry reputation that is expected to attract business and investment opportunities and assist us in negotiations with lenders, sellers, buyers, companies that may lease or guarantee our properties and other industry participants. We believe that many of our other key personnel also have extensive experience and strong reputations in the industry. The loss of services of one or more members of our executive leadership team or other key personnel, or our inability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel, could adversely affect our business and weaken our business relationships with lenders, sellers, buyers, companies that may lease or guarantee our properties and other industry participants, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us.

***If global market and economic conditions deteriorate, including as a result of geopolitical conflicts, political uncertainties in the U.S. and volatility in credit and financial markets, it could have a material adverse effect on us.***

Our business may be adversely affected by market and economic volatility experienced by the U.S. and global economies, the real estate industry as a whole and/or the local economies in the markets in which our properties are located. Such adverse economic and geopolitical conditions may be due to, among other issues, volatility in credit and financial markets, and international economic and other conditions, including pandemics, geopolitical instability, geopolitical conflicts, including related sanctions, political uncertainties in the U.S., including changes to U.S. foreign and economic policy (including, the imposition of tariffs), changes in the labor markets, financial instability and other conditions beyond our control. These current conditions, or similar conditions existing in the future, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to pay dividends to our shareholders as a result of one or more of the following, among other potential consequences:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• significant job losses may occur, which may decrease demand for our industrial properties, causing market rental rates and property values to be negatively impacted;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reduced values of our properties may limit our ability to lease at projected rates, sell assets at attractive prices, or to obtain debt financing secured by our properties and may reduce the availability of secured or unsecured loans;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• inflation may adversely affect tenant leases with stated rent increases tied to the consumer price index, which could be lower than the increase in inflation at any given time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our leases may include fixed rate increase which may be below market rates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the financial condition of our tenants may be adversely affected, which may result in tenant defaults under leases due to inflationary pressure, bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, the stability of tenants' banking institutions, lack of funding, operational failures or for other reasons;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to borrow on terms and conditions that we find acceptable, or at all, may be limited, which could reduce our ability to refinance existing debt and increase our future interest expense;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the value and liquidity of our short-term investments and cash deposits could be reduced as a result of a deterioration of the financial condition of the institutions that hold our cash deposits or the institutions or assets in which we have made short-term investments, a dislocation of the markets for our short-term investments, increased volatility in market rates for such investments or other factors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• unanticipated increases in costs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the strength of the financial institutions we bank with; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to the extent we enter into derivative financial instruments, one or more counterparties to our derivative financial instruments could default on their obligations to us, or could fail, increasing the risk that we may not realize the benefits of these instruments.

***The outbreak of a highly infectious or contagious disease or declaration of a pandemic, epidemic or other health crises could have a material adverse effect on us.***

A future outbreak of a highly infectious or contagious disease or declaration of a pandemic, epidemic or other health crises could result in labor shortages, supply chain issues (including longer lead times for construction materials and increased construction costs), capital markets disruptions, inflationary conditions and other events outside our control, which could result

in a general decline in rents, an increased incidence of defaults under existing leases and negatively impact our ability to achieve new leases as existing leases expire and/or disrupt or prevent us from operating our business in the ordinary course for an extended period or otherwise have a material adverse effect on us.

Furthermore, we cannot predict the impact of an epidemic, pandemic or other health crises could have on our properties, tenants, personnel and other business partners; however, any material effect on our properties or these parties could have a material adverse effect on us.

***If we fail to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting, we could severely inhibit our ability to accurately and timely report our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on us.***

Effective internal controls over financial reporting are essential for us to provide reliable financial reports, effectively prevent fraud and operate successfully. Any failure to provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud could harm operating results, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or cause reputational harm. As a public company, we are required to document and test our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act so that our management can certify as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Any failure to maintain internal control over financial reporting could severely inhibit our ability to accurately report our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on us.

As a result of material weaknesses or significant deficiencies that may be identified in our internal control over financial reporting in the future, we may also identify certain deficiencies in some of our disclosure controls and procedures that we believe require remediation. If we or our independent registered public accounting firm discover any such material weaknesses or significant deficiencies, we will make efforts to further improve our internal control over financial reporting controls, but there is no assurance that we will be successful. Any failure to maintain effective controls or timely effect any necessary improvement of our internal control over financial reporting controls could harm our results of operation, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or cause reputational harm. Ineffective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, the market price of our common shares could decline, and we could be subject to investigations by the NYSE, the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Failure to remedy any material weakness or significant deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting, or to implement or maintain other effective control systems required of public companies, could also restrict our future access to the capital markets.

***Our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud.***

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. We believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by an unauthorized override of the controls. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in our control system, misstatements or insufficient disclosures due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

***Our operating results will be affected by economic and regulatory changes, including changes in national, regional and/or local economic conditions, that have an adverse impact on the real estate market in general, and we cannot provide any assurance that we will be profitable or that we will realize growth in the value of the real estate we own and/or are invested in.***

We own and operate real estate and face risks related to investments in real estate. As of December 31, 2025, our real estate portfolio comprised 76 properties, consisting of 72 operating properties and four redevelopment properties, in 18 states with 61 lessees. Our operating results will be subject to risks generally incident to the ownership of real estate. These include risks described elsewhere in this "Risk Factors" section and other risks, including the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the value of real estate fluctuates depending on conditions in the general economy and the real estate business. Additionally, adverse changes in these conditions may result in a decline in rental revenues, sales proceeds and occupancy levels at our properties and could have a material adverse effect on us. If rental revenues, sales proceeds and/or occupancy levels decline, we generally would expect to have less cash available to pay indebtedness, to pay dividends to shareholders or otherwise run our business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it may be difficult to lease, buy or sell real estate on favorable terms or at all,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• potential buyers of our properties may experience difficulty in obtaining financing, tenants may be unable to afford rent and credit conditions may be tight, all of which may limit our ability to sell properties promptly, on favorable terms, or at all, or execute on our business plan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our properties may be subject to impairment losses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in tax, real estate, environmental or zoning laws and regulations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• delays or difficulties with respect to obtaining, or the inability to obtain, necessary zoning, occupancy, land use and other governmental permits, and changes in zoning and land use laws;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• statewide and local changes in zoning and land use laws and state attorney general actions that result in moratoriums on industrial development or materially restrict the size and uses of industrial projects;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in zoning, occupancy and land use permissions in connection with re-leasing our properties to new tenants;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• unanticipated or increased costs related to the imposition of tariffs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in property tax assessments and insurance costs, especially when we cannot pass costs through to our tenants;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in interest rates and inflation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the cost and availability of credit may be adversely affected by illiquid credit markets and wider credit spreads, and/or more stringent underwriting standards, which could affect our inability or the inability of our tenants to timely refinance maturing liabilities to meet liquidity needs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• environmental issues may result in higher costs than expected; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may from time to time be subject to litigation, which may significantly divert the attention and resources of the Company's management and result in defense costs, settlements, fines or judgments against us, some of which are not, or cannot be, covered by insurance.

These and other risks could have a material adverse effect on us and may prevent us from realizing growth in the value of the real estate we own and/or are invested in.

***If we suffer losses that are not covered by insurance or that are in excess of insurance coverage, it could have a material adverse effect on us.***

We may suffer losses that are not covered by insurance or that are in excess of insurance. There are types of losses, generally of a catastrophic nature, such as losses due to wars, acts of terrorism, earthquakes, fires, floods, hurricanes, pollution or environmental matters, which are either uninsurable or not economically insurable, or may be insured subject to limitations, such as large deductibles or co-payments. In addition, we may decide not to obtain, even though available, any or adequate earthquake or similar catastrophic insurance coverage because the premiums are too high. Generally, commercial general liability insurance, as well as property insurance covering the building and improvements for the full replacement value, is in place for all of our properties. If such insurance is procured by the tenant pursuant to the terms of the tenant's lease, then the ownership entity and the lender, if applicable, will typically be named as additional insureds on the policy. Separately, we obtain, to the extent available, liability insurance (including pollution coverage) and property insurance (including earthquake coverage, wind coverage, flood coverage and rent loss coverage for at least one year of rental loss) for all of our properties. However, the coverage and amounts of our environmental, flood and earthquake insurance policies may not be sufficient to cover our entire risk or may contain exclusions which may result in risks that are not covered. We cannot assure shareholders that we will have adequate coverage for losses. If we suffer losses that are not covered by insurance or that are in excess of insurance coverage, it could have a material adverse effect on us.

***Costs of complying with governmental laws, ordinances and regulations, including those relating to environmental conditions, zoning, state and local fire and life safety requirements, the ADA and climate change, may have a material adverse effect on us.***

Our operations, as well as those of our tenants, conducted on real property are subject to federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations relating to environmental conditions, zoning, state and local fire and life safety requirements, the ADA and climate change, may have a material adverse effect on us.

Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or former owner or operator of real property may be held liable for the performance of or costs of removing or remediating hazardous substances or wastes. These laws often impose strict, joint and several clean-up responsibility and liability, without regard to causation. The costs of investigating, removing or remediating these substances or wastes may be substantial, and we may not have sufficient, or any, insurance to cover such costs. We may be required to pay the costs of removing or remediating these hazardous substances or wastes from properties we acquire, which may be greater than those initially expected at the time of acquisition, including those conditions that existed prior to our acquisition or where tenants fail to address issues they are contractually obligated to do so. The presence of these hazardous substances or wastes may adversely affect our ability to use, lease or sell the property, or to borrow using the property as collateral, and may expose us to liability resulting from a release of or exposure to these hazardous substances or wastes, any of which could result in expenditures and could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, we may incur costs and liabilities associated with the transportation, disposal or treatment of hazardous substances or wastes, claims by third parties based on damages resulting from environmental contamination emanating from one of our properties, or liability in connection with the handling or exposure to hazardous substances or wastes. We maintain pollution legal liability insurance

for all of our properties including coverage for cleanup costs, bodily injury and property damage from new and pre-existing conditions, however, some pre-existing conditions and some activities and uses may be excluded from coverage for certain properties. Failure to comply with these environmental laws, ordinances and regulations could also result in the imposition of fines or penalties by governmental authorities or an award of damages to private litigants.

Furthermore, our properties may be subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as zoning, occupancy and land use regulations and state and local fire and life safety requirements. Failure to comply with these requirements could result in the imposition of fines by governmental authorities or an award of damages to private litigants. Local regulations, including municipal or local ordinances and zoning restrictions, may restrict our use of our properties and may require us to obtain approval from local officials of community standards organizations at any time with respect to our properties, including prior to acquiring a property, when undertaking renovations to any of our existing properties or upon a change of tenant. Among other things, these restrictions may relate to fire and safety, seismic or hazardous material abatement requirements. Through our due diligence process and protections in our leases, we aim to own and operate properties that are in material compliance with all such regulatory requirements, including all zoning, occupancy and land use requirements. However, we cannot assure our shareholders that these requirements will not be changed or that new requirements will not be imposed, which would require significant unanticipated expenditures by us and could have a material adverse effect on us.

Under the ADA all public accommodations and commercial facilities are required to meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. The ADA's requirements could require removal of access barriers and could result in the imposition of injunctive relief, monetary penalties, or, in some cases, an award of damages. We aim to own and operate properties that comply with the ADA or may place the burden on a third party to ensure compliance with the ADA. However, we cannot assure our shareholders that we will be able to allocate responsibilities in this manner. Failing to comply could result in the imposition of fines by the federal government or an award of damages to private litigants. Although we diligence compliance with laws, including the ADA, when we acquire properties, we may incur additional costs to comply with the ADA or other regulations related to access by disabled persons. If required changes involve a greater amount of expenditures than we currently anticipate, it could have a material adverse effect on us.

Furthermore, changes in federal, state and local legislation and regulations on climate change could result in increased utility expenses and/or increased capital expenditures on our properties (for example, to improve the energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions) and administrative expenses (such as the climate change disclosure rules proposed by the SEC). For example, since October 2023, California passed several bills that require certain companies that do business in California to disclose their GHG emissions and climate-related financial risks starting in 2026. In addition, regulations and other expectations related to environmental matters and climate change are not uniform, and may be inconsistently interpreted or applies, which can increase the complexity and costs of compliance as well as any associated litigation or enforcement risks.

The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on us.

***Our investment in industrial properties exposes us to extensive zoning, occupancy and land use regulations.***

Our investment in industrial properties exposes us to extensive zoning, occupancy and land use regulations, which could change and result in non-conforming uses at our properties, limit the use of our properties by different tenants and/or result in the termination of our leases by existing tenants. In addition, zoning, occupancy and land use regulations may limit our ability to re-lease our properties to different tenants, develop or redevelop our industrial properties, including as a result of the adoption of restrictive zoning, occupancy and land use regulations, exposing us to increased competition for available land and properties. If the supply of land appropriate for the development of industrial properties becomes more limited, including as a result of rezoning of the land underlying our properties for different uses, the cost of land could increase and/or the number of industrial properties that we are able to invest in could be reduced. Furthermore, changes to zoning, occupancy and land use regulations may increase the bargaining power of tenants, affecting the terms at which are able to lease our industrial properties. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on us.

***Inability to effectively and rapidly adopt the use of artificial intelligence could have a material adverse effect on us, including on our ability to compete.***

We have implemented the limited use of artificial intelligence ("AI") tools, including third-party generative AI applications, as internal resources to assist employees with research, drafting and analytical use cases. These tools are currently used on a non-automated basis and are intended to supplement, but not replace, human judgment, and we have not deployed AI to automate any business processes.

The continuing exploration of adopting additional AI technologies will require us to expend resources in connection with such adoption and to implement and maintain effective governance, policies, training and controls that allow us to utilize these technologies appropriately, including investing in processes and professionals with the skills necessary to execute on a broader-scale AI utilization strategy. If we are too slow to adopt relevant AI technologies, we could fall behind our competitors, which

------

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

could have a material adverse effect on us. Additionally, deploying AI too rapidly or without appropriate controls may result in operational errors, poor adoption, legal or regulatory exposure, and reputational damage.

Leveraging AI more broadly to potentially improve the internal functions and operations of our business presents further opportunities and risks. AI-generated outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete or misleading, and employees may place undue reliance on such outputs without sufficient human review, which could result in errors in judgment or decision-making. Because many AI tools are provided by third parties, we may also be subject to risks related to vendor practices, changes in functionality or terms of use, data handling, cybersecurity, intellectual property rights, and service availability. In addition, the use of AI to support business operations carries inherent risks related to data privacy and security, inadvertent discrimination, and evolving legal and regulatory requirements governing the use of AI, any of which could result in liability and harm to our reputation.

***If we sell properties by providing financing to purchasers, defaults by the purchasers could have a material adverse effect on us.***

If we provide seller-financing to purchasers (also known as purchase money financing), we will bear the risk that the purchaser may default, which could have a material adverse effect on us. Even in the absence of a purchaser default, there may be a material adverse effect on us. In some cases, we may receive initial down payments in cash and other property in the year of sale in an amount less than the selling price and subsequent payments will be spread over a number of years, which at times may not include interest payments to us. If any purchaser defaults under a financing arrangement with us, it could have a material adverse effect on us. We may be required to seek remedies, a process which may be time-consuming and costly. In certain jurisdictions, the remedies available to us, in the context of seller-financing, may also limit our ability to recover any deficiencies after a buyer defaults and we foreclose on the asset. Additionally, we may be required to bear additional costs associated with a property.

***We are subject to risks from climate change and natural disasters such as earthquakes and severe weather conditions.***

Our properties are located in areas that may be subject to climate change and natural disasters, such as earthquakes and wildfires, and severe weather conditions. Climate change and natural disasters, including rising sea levels, flooding, extreme weather, and changes in precipitation and temperature, may result in physical damage to, or a total loss of, our properties located in areas affected by these conditions, including those in low-lying areas close to sea level, and/or decreases in demand, rent from, or the value of those properties. We may be required to remediate damage caused to our properties as a result of natural disasters and may need to incur material costs in doing so. In addition, we may incur material costs to protect these properties, including increases in our insurance premiums as a result of the threat of climate change, or the effects of climate change, and may not be covered by our insurance policies. Additionally, the occurrence of natural disasters could affect our ability to carry on business functions that are critical to our financial and operational viability.

The extent of our casualty losses and loss in operating income in connection with such events is a function of the severity of the event and the total amount of exposure in the affected area. When we have a geographic concentration of exposures, a single catastrophe (such as an earthquake) affecting an area in which we have a significant concentration of properties, such as in Georgia, Florida, Illinois, Ohio and California, could have a material adverse effect on us. As a result, our operating and financial results may vary significantly from one period to the next, and our financial results may be adversely affected by our exposure to losses arising from climate change, natural disasters or severe weather conditions.

**Risks Related to Debt Financing**

***As of December 31, 2025, we had $485.9 million of indebtedness outstanding, which requires substantial cash flow to service, subjects us to risk of default, which could have a material adverse effect on us.***

As of December 31, 2025, we had $485.9 million of indebtedness outstanding. This indebtedness consists of $285.0 million of unsecured debt under our unsecured corporate credit agreement and $200.9 million of secured debt. Our indebtedness currently requires us to dedicate a significant portion of our cash flow from operations to debt service payments, which reduces the availability of our cash flow to meet our cash needs, including our development and redevelopment costs, or to make the distributions to our shareholders currently contemplated or necessary to continue to qualify as a REIT. Our indebtedness and the limitations imposed on us by our debt agreements could have a material adverse effect on us.

We are also subject to the risk of default on our existing or future indebtedness. If we were to default under our unsecured credit agreement, the facility lenders would have the ability to immediately declare the loans due and payable in whole or in part. In such event, we may not have sufficient available cash to repay such debt at the time it becomes due or be able to refinance such debt on acceptable terms or at all. A continued failure to repay our debt as it matures could lead to an inability for the Company to continue as a going concern. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on us.

------

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

***Our unsecured credit facility and certain of our secured indebtedness contain, and any other future indebtedness we incur may contain, various restrictive covenants and the failure to comply with those covenants could have a material adverse effect on us.***

Our unsecured credit facility and certain of our other secured indebtedness contain, and any other future indebtedness we incur may contain restrictive covenants, which, among other things, restrict our activities. Lenders have imposed and could impose restrictions on us that affect our dividend and operating policies and our ability to incur additional debt, including customary restrictive covenants, that, among other things, restrict our ability to engage in material asset sales, mergers, consolidations, acquisitions or investments, to make capital expenditures, to pay special dividends, to repurchase our securities, and more generally on how and when we can spend operating funds and capital event proceeds. We may also be required to have and maintain certain specified financial ratios and to reserve or otherwise set aside funds for specific expenses, such as anticipated leasing and capital expenditures. These or other limitations may adversely affect our flexibility and limit our ability to pay dividends to shareholders. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on us. A breach of a covenant or a deterioration in our equity base under our secured debt could limit or entirely eliminate our access to liquidity and trigger defaults, which may require us to seek waivers or amendments or refinance or repay indebtedness on short notice and on unfavorable terms.

In addition, the assumptions in our corporate credit agreement and mortgage debt regarding values, cash flow and debt service coverage, and individual asset underwriting of performance metrics such as loan-to-value ratios, debt service coverage ratios and debt yields that support our current borrowings may be subject to change, as market conditions change and/or lending standards become more stringent.

***We may finance properties with prepayment lock-out provisions, which may prohibit us from selling such properties, require us to maintain specified debt levels for a period of years on such properties, and/or require us to spend additional capital in the form of prepayment penalties and defeasance costs in order to sell such properties.***

Lock-out provisions are provisions that generally prohibit repayment without fees or costs of a loan balance for a certain number of years following the origination date of a loan. We may finance properties with lock-out provisions, which could materially restrict us from selling or otherwise disposing of or refinancing properties. These provisions would affect our ability to turn our investments into cash and thus affect cash available for the payment of dividends to our shareholders and may prohibit us from reducing the outstanding indebtedness with respect to any such properties by repaying or refinancing such indebtedness. Any mortgage debt that we place on our properties may also impose prepayment penalties. If a lender invokes these penalties or if we choose to pay defeasance costs, the cost to the Company to sell, repay or refinance the property could increase substantially and reduce our cash available for other expenditures and affect our ability to pay dividends to shareholders. Lock-out provisions could preclude us from participating in major transactions that could result in a disposition of our assets or a change in control even though that disposition or change in control might be in our shareholders' best interests or impact the amount of net proceeds received in connection with the sale of a property.

The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on us.

***We have broad authority to incur debt, and our indebtedness could have a material adverse effect on us.***

We have broad authority to incur debt, subject to the approval of our Board. High debt levels would cause us to incur higher interest charges, which would result in higher debt service payments. Our indebtedness could have a material adverse effect on us, as well as:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• decrease the market price of our common shares as a result of market aversion to higher debt levels;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limit our ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, acquisitions, investments, capital expenditures and other general corporate requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• require the use of an increased portion of our cash flow from operations for the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness, thereby reducing our ability to use our cash flow to fund working capital, acquisitions, investments, capital expenditures and general corporate requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our industry and accomplishing our business plan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• put us at a disadvantage compared to our competitors with less indebtedness; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limit our ability to access capital markets.

We have placed, and may continue to place, permanent financing on our properties or increase our credit facility or other similar financing arrangement in order to acquire and/or invest in properties. We may also decide to later further leverage our properties or to rely on securitization vehicles. We may borrow funds for any purposes related to our business. A shortfall between the cash flow from our properties and the cash flow needed to service debt could have a material adverse effect on us.

------

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

***We expect to need additional funding to fund future investments.***

We expect to need additional funding to finance our investments. We may decide that the funding should be in the form of debt financing, net proceeds from equity issuances, joint ventures or the sale of assets. No assurance can be given that any of these sources of capital will be available on terms that are as favorable as those that we currently expect to obtain, or available at all. If we finance any funding shortfall with common equity issuances, there may be a dilutive effect on our earnings per share after giving effect to the issuance of such common shares and the application of the proceeds thereof. We may be unable to maintain larger shelf registration capacity, which could reduce our capital raising flexibility, limit our ability to time offerings and increase execution risk and cost.

The incurrence of additional debt could increase our leverage ratios and would increase our exposure to the risks associated with debt financing, all of which could be negatively perceived by the market. In addition, an inability to obtain sufficient capital to meet our funding obligations could lead to contractual defaults that could materially and adversely affect us. If debt financings or alternative sources of financing are unavailable when strategic opportunities arise, we may not be able to acquire properties or make a relevant investment.

***We have incurred, and intend to continue to incur, indebtedness secured by our properties. If we are unable to make our debt payments when required, a lender could foreclose on the property or properties securing such debt, which could have a material adverse effect on us.***

Some of our assets are and will be secured by mortgages on our properties, and we may in the future rely on securitization vehicles. If we default on our secured indebtedness, the lender may foreclose and we could lose our entire investment in the properties securing such loan or vehicle, which could have a material adverse effect on us. To the extent lenders require us to cross-collateralize our properties, or provisions in our loan documents contain cross-default provisions, a default under a single loan agreement could subject multiple properties to foreclosure. Foreclosures of one or more of our properties could have a material adverse effect on us.

***Increases in interest rates could increase the amount of our debt payments and adversely affect our ability to pay dividends to shareholders or otherwise have a material adverse effect on us.***

We have incurred and intend to continue to incur indebtedness. Increases in the interest we pay on our indebtedness could adversely affect our ability to pay dividends to shareholders or otherwise have a material adverse effect on us, among other consequences. Additionally, if we incur variable rate debt, increases in interest rates would increase our interest costs, could reduce our cash flows and our ability to pay dividends to shareholders or otherwise have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, if we need to refinance or repay existing debt during periods of rising interest rates, we could be required to sell one or more of our investments in properties at times that may not permit realization of the maximum return on such investments. Any of the foregoing risks could have a material adverse effect on us.

***Failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, ability to pay dividends to our shareholders or otherwise have a material adverse effect on us.***

The REIT provisions of the Code impose certain restrictions on our ability to utilize hedges, swaps and other types of derivatives to hedge our liabilities. At the same time, our corporate credit agreement requires us to maintain certain covenants with respect to maximum, unhedged interest rate risk. Subject to these restrictions and requirements, we have entered, and may continue to enter into, hedging transactions to protect ourselves from the effects of interest rate fluctuations on floating rate debt. Our hedging transactions include entering into interest rate swap agreements. These agreements involve risks, such as the risk that such arrangements would not be effective in reducing our exposure to interest rate changes or that a court could rule that such an agreement is not legally enforceable. In addition, interest rate hedging can be expensive, particularly during periods of rising and volatile interest rates and a failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to pay dividends to our shareholders or otherwise have a material adverse effect on us. In a declining interest rate environment and/or if we repay or prepay significant amounts of our indebtedness, we could be over-hedged and pay under hedging arrangements, which would increase our costs and result in losses. In addition, while such agreements would be intended to lessen the impact of rising interest rates on us, they could also expose us to the risk that the other parties to the agreements would not perform, and that the hedging arrangements may not be effective in reducing our exposure to interest rate changes. Should we desire to terminate a hedging agreement, there could be significant costs and cash requirements involved to fulfill our obligation under the hedging agreement.

**U.S. Federal Income Tax Risks** 

***Failure to continue to qualify as a REIT would adversely affect our operations and our ability to pay dividends because we would incur additional tax liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on us.***

We believe we operate in a manner that allows us to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Code. Qualification as a REIT involves highly technical and complex Code provisions for which there are only limited judicial and administrative interpretations. Our qualification as a REIT will depend upon our ability to meet, through investments, actual operating results, dividends and satisfaction of specific shareholder ownership rules, and various other requirements imposed by the Code.

If we fail to qualify as a REIT for any taxable year, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our taxable income at corporate rates. In addition, we would generally be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year of losing our REIT status. Losing our REIT status would materially reduce our net earnings available for investment or paying dividends to shareholders because of the additional tax liability. If this occurs, we might be required to borrow funds or sell some investments in order to pay the applicable tax. In addition, dividends paid to our shareholders would no longer qualify for the dividends paid deduction, and we would no longer be required to pay dividends. Qualification as a REIT is subject to the satisfaction of tax requirements and various factual matters and circumstances that are not entirely within our control. New legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations, or court decisions could change the tax laws with respect to qualification as a REIT or the U.S. federal income tax consequences of being a REIT. Our failure to continue to qualify as a REIT could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, our REIT status depends on the ongoing qualification of subsidiary entities qualifying as REITs or taxable REIT subsidiaries, as applicable, as a result of our substantial ownership interest in those entities.

***To qualify as a REIT, and to avoid the payment of U.S. federal income and excise taxes and maintain our REIT status, we may be forced to borrow funds, use proceeds from the issuance of securities, or sell assets to pay dividends, which may result in our distributing amounts that may otherwise be used for our operations, which could have a material adverse effect on us.***

To qualify as a REIT, we will be required each year to distribute to our shareholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, generally determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and by excluding net capital gains. We will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our undistributed taxable income and net capital gain and to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on any amount by which dividends we pay with respect to any taxable year are less than the sum of (i) 85% of our ordinary income, (ii) 95% of our capital gain net income, and (iii) 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. These requirements could cause us to distribute amounts that otherwise would be spent on the acquisition of, investment in, and/or maintenance or development of properties and it is possible that we might be required to borrow funds, use proceeds from the issuance of securities, or sell assets in order to distribute enough of our taxable income to maintain our REIT status and to avoid the payment of U.S. federal income and excise taxes. We may be required to pay dividends to our shareholders at times when it would be more advantageous to reinvest cash in our business or when we do not have cash readily available for distribution, and we may be forced to sell assets on terms and at times unfavorable to us, which could have a material adverse effect on us. These methods of obtaining funding could affect future dividends by increasing operating costs and decreasing available cash.

***If certain of our subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership, fail to maintain their respective statuses as a partnership or disregarded entity, as applicable, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we could cease to qualify as a REIT and suffer other adverse consequences.***

One or more of our subsidiaries may be treated as a partnership or disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes and, therefore, will not be subject to federal income tax on its income. Instead, each of its partners or its members, as applicable, which may include us, will be allocated, and may be required to pay tax with respect to, such partner's or member's share of its income. We intend to maintain the status of our Operating Partnership as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, if the IRS were to successfully challenge the status of our Operating Partnership as a partnership, it would be taxable as a corporation. In such event, this would reduce the amount of distributions that our Operating Partnership could make. This would also result in our losing REIT status and becoming subject to a corporate level tax on our income. This would substantially reduce our cash available to pay dividends and the return on our shareholders' investment, which could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, if any of the entities through which our Operating Partnership owns its properties, in whole or in part, loses its characterization as an entity disregarded from its parent or a partnership for federal income tax purposes, the underlying entity could become subject to taxation as a corporation, thereby reducing distributions to our Operating Partnership and jeopardizing our ability to maintain REIT status.

***In certain circumstances, even if we qualify as a REIT, we and our subsidiaries may be subject to certain federal, state, and other income taxes, which would reduce our cash available to pay dividends to our shareholders and could have a material adverse effect on us.***

Even if we qualify and maintain our status as a REIT, we may be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local income taxes on our income and assets, including taxes and undistributed income, built in gain tax on the taxable sale of assets, tax on income from some activities conducted as a result of a foreclosure, and non-U.S., state or local income, property and transfer taxes. In addition, we could, in certain circumstances, be required to pay an excise or penalty tax (which could be significant in amount) in order to utilize one or more relief provisions under the Code to maintain our qualification as a REIT. We may also decide to retain income we earn from the sale or other disposition of any of our properties and pay income tax directly on such income. In that event, our shareholders would be treated as if they earned that income and paid the tax on it directly. However, our shareholders that are tax-exempt, such as charities or qualified pension plans, would have no benefit from their deemed payment of such tax liability. We may also be subject to state and local taxes on our income or properties, either directly, at the level of our Operating Partnership, or at the level of the other companies through which we indirectly own our assets. In particular, we will be subject to U.S. federal and state income tax (and any applicable non-U.S. taxes) on the income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiaries. Any U.S. or federal, state or other taxes we pay will reduce our cash available for paying dividends to our shareholders and could have a material adverse effect on us.

Further, any net taxable income earned directly by our taxable REIT subsidiaries, or through entities that are disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes as entities separate from our taxable REIT subsidiaries, will be subject to U.S. federal and possibly state corporate income tax. We have elected to treat Griffin Capital Essential Asset TRS, Inc. as a taxable REIT subsidiary, and we may elect to treat other subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries in the future. In this regard, several provisions of the laws applicable to REITs and their subsidiaries ensure that a taxable REIT subsidiary will be subject to an appropriate level of U.S. federal income taxation. For example, a taxable REIT subsidiary is limited in its ability to deduct certain interest payments made to an affiliated REIT. In addition, the REIT has to pay a 100% penalty tax on some payments that it receives or on some deductions taken by a taxable REIT subsidiary if the economic arrangements between the REIT, the REIT's customers, and the taxable REIT subsidiary are not comparable to similar arrangements between unrelated parties. To the extent that we and our affiliates are required to pay U.S. federal, state and local taxes, we will have less cash available to pay dividends to our shareholders.

***The tax imposed on REITs engaging in "prohibited transactions" may limit our ability to engage in transactions that would be treated as sales for U.S. federal income tax purposes.***

A REIT's net income from prohibited transactions is subject to a 100% penalty tax. In general, prohibited transactions are sales or other dispositions of property, other than foreclosure property, held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. Although we do not intend to hold any properties that would be characterized as held for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business, such characterization is a factual determination and no guarantee can be given that the IRS would agree with our characterization of our properties or that we will always be able to make use of the available safe harbors. If the IRS were to successfully challenge our characterization of a sale, we would be liable for the aforementioned 100% penalty tax, which could be significant in size.

***Complying with the REIT requirements may cause us to forgo otherwise attractive opportunities, which could have a material adverse effect on us.***

To qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things, the sources of our income, the nature and diversification of our assets, the amounts we distribute to our shareholders and the ownership of our common shares. We may be required to pay dividends to our shareholders at times it would be more advantageous to reinvest cash in our business or when we do not have cash readily available to pay dividends, and we may be forced to sell assets on terms and at times unfavorable to us, which could have a material adverse effect on us. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of maximizing profits.

***To the extent our dividends represent a return of capital for tax purposes, a shareholder could recognize an increased capital gain upon a subsequent sale of the shareholder's common shares.***

Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits and not treated by us as a dividend will not be taxable to a shareholder to the extent those distributions do not exceed the shareholder's adjusted tax basis in his or her common shares, but instead will constitute a return of capital and will reduce such adjusted basis. Such distributions to non-U.S. shareholders may be subject to withholding, which may be refundable. If distributions exceed such adjusted basis, then such adjusted basis will be reduced to zero and the excess will be capital gain to the shareholder (assuming such shares are held as a capital asset for U.S. federal income tax purposes). If distributions result in a reduction of a shareholder's adjusted basis in his or her common shares, then subsequent sales of such shareholder's common shares potentially will result in recognition of an increased capital gain.

***Partnership tax audit rules could have a material adverse effect on us.***

Under the current partnership tax audit rules, subject to certain exceptions, liability is imposed on the partnership (rather than its partners) for adjustments to reported partnership taxable income resulting from audits or other tax proceedings. The

------

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

liability can include an imputed underpayment of tax, calculated by using the highest marginal U.S. federal income tax rate, as well as interest and penalties on such imputed underpayment of tax. It is possible that the application of the current partnership tax audit rules could result in partnerships in which we directly or indirectly invest (including our Operating Partnership) being required to pay additional taxes, interest and penalties as a result of an audit adjustment, and we, as a direct or indirect partner of these partnerships, could be required to bear the economic burden of those taxes, interest, and penalties even though we may have not been a partner in the partnership during the year to which the audit relates and we, as a REIT, may not otherwise have been required to pay additional corporate-level taxes as a result of the related audit adjustment. Using certain rules, partnerships may be able to transfer these liabilities to their partners. In the event any adjustments are imposed by the IRS on the taxable income reported by any subsidiary partnerships, we intend to utilize certain rules to the extent possible to allow us to transfer any liability with respect to such adjustments to the partners of the subsidiary partnerships who should properly bear such liability. However, there is no assurance that we will qualify under those rules or that we will have the authority to use those rules under the operating agreements for certain of our subsidiary partnerships.

***Legislative or regulatory tax changes related to REITs could materially and adversely affect our business.***

The U.S. federal income tax laws and regulations governing REITs and their shareholders, as well as the administrative interpretations of those laws and regulations, are constantly under review and may be changed at any time, possibly with retroactive effect. No assurance can be given as to whether, when, or in what form, the U.S. federal income tax laws applicable to us and our shareholders may be enacted. Changes to the U.S. federal income tax laws and interpretations of U.S. federal tax laws could adversely affect an investment in our common shares.

**Risks Related to Our Common Shares**

***The price of our common shares may experience volatility. In addition, limited trading volume may depress the market price of our common shares and make it difficult for investors to sell their shares and less attractive to new investors to purchase our common shares.***

The U.S. stock markets, including the NYSE, on which our common shares are listed, historically have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. As a result, the market price of our common shares has similarly been volatile, and investors in our common shares may experience a decrease in the market price of their shares, including decreases unrelated to our business, financial conditions or results of operations. We cannot assure you that the market price of our common shares will not fluctuate or decline significantly in the future or that holders of our common shares will be able to sell their shares when desired on favorable terms, or at all. The market price of our common shares could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our financial performance, cash flows, financial condition, results of operations and prospects,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actual or anticipated differences in our quarterly or annual operating results from those expected;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our dependence on key personnel whose continued services are not guaranteed;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• whether we will be successful in renewing leases as they expire;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• failure to qualify as a REIT;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• failure to comply with the rules of the SEC, the NYSE, the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or other applicable laws;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the annual yield from dividends on our common shares as compared to yields on other financial instruments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actual or anticipated changes in our and our tenants' business or prospects;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the current state of the credit and capital markets, and our ability and the ability of our tenants to obtain financing on favorable terms;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our entry into new business lines;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to execute on the sale of properties;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in market valuations of similar companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• strategic decisions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or investments, divestments, spin offs, joint ventures, strategic investments or changes in business strategy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increases in (or prolonged periods of high) market interest rates, which could result in increased interest expense on our debt;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• equity issuances by us (including the issuance of OP Units or other securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, our common shares) or the conversion of a large number of OP Units into common shares as opposed to cash;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• future sales of substantial amounts of our common shares (including following conversion of OP Units to common shares) by our existing or future shareholders, or the perception that such issuances or future sales may occur;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• adverse market reaction to any indebtedness we incur in the future, inability to refinance our existing indebtedness, the inclusion of restrictive covenants in our future indebtedness, or our failure to establish debt levels that investors believe are appropriate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in expectations of future financial performance or changes in estimates of securities analysts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• publication of research reports about us or our industry by securities analysts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• government regulatory action or inaction and legislative changes that could adversely affect our industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in tax laws;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• adverse speculation in the press or investment community;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the underlying value of real estate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• climate change and natural disasters, such as earthquakes, wildfires, rising sea levels, flooding, and extreme weather;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• impacts of the outbreak of a highly infectious or contagious disease or declaration of a pandemic, epidemic or other health crises;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• terrorist acts, natural or man-made disasters or threatened or actual armed conflicts; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• general market conditions.

***We may change our dividend policy.***

Future dividends will be declared and paid at the sole discretion of our Board, and the amount and timing of dividends will depend upon our actual and projected financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity and FFO, AFFO, maintenance of our REIT qualification and such other matters as our Board may deem relevant from time to time. Our Board may change our dividend policy at any time, and there can be no assurance as to the manner in which future dividends will be paid or that the current dividend level will be maintained in future periods. Shareholders have no contractual or other legal right to dividends that have not been authorized and declared by the Board. We may not be able to pay dividends in the future or may need to fund such payments from external sources, including debt or equity financings, as to which no assurances can be given. Our failure to meet the market's expectations with regard to future cash dividends likely would adversely affect the market price of our common shares.

***Our shareholders are subject to the risk that our business and operating plans may change.***

Our Board may change our investment objectives, targeted investments, borrowing policies or other corporate policies without shareholder approval.

***Increases in market interest rates may result in a decrease in the value of our common shares.***

One of the factors that may influence the price of our common shares will be the dividend rate on our common shares (as a percentage of the price of our common shares) relative to market interest rates. If market interest rates rise, prospective purchasers of our common shares may expect a higher dividend rate. Higher interest rates would not, however, result in more funds being available to pay dividends and, in fact, would likely increase our borrowing costs and might decrease our funds available for dividends. We therefore may not be able, or we may not choose, to provide a higher dividend rate. As a result, prospective purchasers may decide to purchase other securities rather than our common shares, which would reduce the demand for, and result in a decline in the market price of, our common shares.

***The future issuance of common shares or the resale of outstanding common shares could adversely affect the market price of our common shares.***

Future primary issuances of our common shares or other securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, our common shares could dilute shareholders and could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common shares. Holders of our common shares are not entitled to preemptive rights or other protections against dilution.

Additionally, in connection with the transaction that resulted in the internalization of management of Griffin Capital Essential Asset REIT, Inc. (our "Predecessor") in December 2018 (the "Self-Administration Transaction"), Griffin Capital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("GC LLC"), which is an entity controlled by our former Executive Chairman, Kevin A. Shields, and affiliated with Griffin Capital Company, LLC, the sponsor of our Predecessor, received OP Units (approximately 2.7 million taking into effect the 9 to 1 reverse split) as a consideration in exchange for the sale to our Predecessor of the advisory, asset management and property management business of Griffin Capital Real Estate Company, LLC (now known as PKST Management Company, LLC). As further described below, as of December 31, 2025, GC LLC owned 2,060,860 OP Units, which, upon a request for redemption by GC LLC, are exchangeable into common shares or cash, at the Company's election. We are party to a registration rights agreement with GC LLC pursuant to which GC LLC has the right to request that we register for resale, under the Securities Act, our common shares issued or issuable to GC LLC and certain successor holders. Resales of a significant number of our common shares, or the perception that such resales could occur, may have an adverse effect on the market price of our common shares.

In addition, the vesting of any restricted shares or other equity awards granted to certain trustees, executive officers and other employees under our equity incentive plan, or the issuance of our common shares or other securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, our common shares in connection with future acquisitions of and/or other investments in properties, could dilute shareholders and have an adverse effect on the market price of our common shares. A relatively small market capitalization may magnify our general and administrative ratio as compared to larger peers and adversely affect our valuation. Unless our equity base is increased, our general and administrative expenses may represent a higher percentage of revenue than those of larger industrial REITs, which could lead to a perception of inefficiency and a valuation discount.

**Risks Related to Our Conflicts of Interest** 

***Conflicts of interest may exist or could arise in the future between the interests of our shareholders and the interests of holders of OP Units, which may impede business decisions that could otherwise have benefitted our shareholders.***

Conflicts of interest exist or could arise in the future between the interests of our shareholders and the interests of holders of OP Units. Our trustees and officers have duties to the Company under applicable Maryland law in connection with their management of the Company. At the same time, we, as the general partner of our Operating Partnership, have fiduciary duties, and obligations to our Operating Partnership and its partners in connection with the management of our Operating Partnership under Delaware law and the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership. Our fiduciary duties and obligations as general partner to our Operating Partnership and its partners may come into conflict with the duties of our trustees and officers to the Company and our shareholders, which may result in management making business decisions that could benefit either the Operating Partnership and its partners or the Company and our shareholders and be adverse to the interests of the others. While the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership provides that we should endeavor in good faith to resolve any conflict in a manner not adverse to either our shareholders or the Operating Partnership's partners, if we determine that a conflict cannot be resolved in a manner not adverse to either shareholders or the Operating Partnership's partners, the partnership agreement provides that a conflict should be resolved in favor of our shareholders.

***Certain of our executive officers own an interest in an incentive compensation plan controlled by our former Executive Chairman and pursuant to which they may be entitled to receive substantial payments, which could create the appearance of a conflict of interest between the interest of the Company and the interests of these executive officers.***

GC LLC assigned approximately 50% of the OP Units received in connection with the Self-Administration Transaction to then participants in GC LLC's long-term incentive plan (the "GCC Incentive Plan"). Our former Executive Chairman, Kevin A. Shields, is the plan administrator of the GCC Incentive Plan.

As previously disclosed, certain of our current and former employees and executive officers, including Michael Escalante, our Chief Executive Officer, and Javier Bitar, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, were employed by affiliates of GC LLC prior to the Self-Administration Transaction and are therefore participants in the GCC Incentive Plan which made grants to such participants in connection with services rendered prior to the Self-Administration Transaction. Participants in the GCC Incentive Plan, including Messrs. Escalante and Bitar, are entitled to receive distributions from the GCC Incentive Plan in the form of cash, common shares, or other property, or a combination thereof, as elected by the plan administrator.

As required by our listing on the NYSE, certain awards under the GCC Incentive Plan were settled during each of the fourth quarter 2023, fourth quarter 2024 and fourth quarter 2025 and will be settled in two additional annual installments thereafter, unless waived or modified. In connection with the settlement of awards under the GCC Incentive Plan, the plan administrator, Kevin Shields, may choose to distribute cash, common shares, or other property, or a combination thereof, as elected by the plan administrator.

Effective December 9, 2025, GC LLC elected to redeem 212,613 OP Units pursuant to the terms of our Operating Partnership's operating agreement, and we satisfied such redemption request with our common shares. Following this redemption, GC LLC distributed such common shares to participants in the GCC Incentive Plan, including 28,133 common shares to Mr. Escalante and 2,000 common shares to Mr. Bitar. In connection with the aforesaid future installments, if GC LLC elects to redeem additional OP Units, we currently intend to satisfy such redemption request with our common shares. GCC Incentive Plan participants may receive additional payment, which payments could be substantial. Our executive officers' interest in the GCC Incentive Plan may create the appearance of a conflict of interest between the interest of the Company and the interest of these executive officers.

**Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure**

***Our declaration of trust contains certain ownership limits with respect to our shares.***

Generally, to maintain our qualification as a REIT, no more than 50% in value of our outstanding shares may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of our taxable year (except with respect to the first taxable year for which an election to be taxed as a REIT is made). The Code defines "individuals" for purposes of the requirement described in the preceding sentence to include some types of entities. Our declaration of trust authorizes our Board to take such actions as it determines are necessary or advisable to preserve our qualification as a REIT. Our declaration of trust prohibits the ownership by any Person (as defined in our declaration of trust) of more than 9.8% (in value or in number, whichever is more restrictive) of the aggregate of our common shares or more than 9.8% of the value of the aggregate of our outstanding Shares (as defined in our declaration of trust), unless waived by our Board. For these purposes, our declaration of trust includes a "group" as that term is used for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act in the definition of "Person." Our Board may exempt a person, prospectively or retroactively, from these ownership limits if certain conditions are satisfied.

------

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

These ownership limits and the other restrictions on ownership and transfer of our shares contained in our declaration of trust may:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• discourage a tender offer or other transactions or a change in management or of control that might involve a premium price for our shares or that our shareholders might otherwise believe to be in their best interest; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• result in the transfer of shares acquired in excess of the restrictions to a trust for the benefit of a charitable beneficiary and, as a result, the forfeiture by the acquirer of the benefits of owning the additional shares.

***Certain provisions of Maryland law could inhibit changes in control, which may discourage third parties from conducting a tender offer or seeking other change of control transactions that might involve a premium price for our shares or that our shareholders might otherwise believe to be in their best interest.***

Certain provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law (the "MGCL") that are applicable to Maryland real estate investment trusts may have the effect of inhibiting a third party from making a proposal to acquire us or of impeding a change of control under circumstances that otherwise could provide the holders of common shares with the opportunity to realize a premium price for our common shares, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "business combination" provisions that, subject to limitations, prohibit certain business combinations between a Maryland real estate investment trust and an "interested shareholder" (defined generally as any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the voting power of the Maryland real estate investment trust's outstanding voting shares of beneficial interest or an affiliate or associate of the Maryland real estate investment trust who was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of the then-outstanding voting shares of beneficial interest at any time within the two-year period immediately prior to the date in question) or an affiliate of such interested shareholder for five years after the most recent date on which the interested shareholder becomes an interested shareholder, and thereafter impose either fair price or supermajority shareholder voting requirements on these combinations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "control share" provisions that provide that holders of "control shares" of a Maryland real estate investment trust (defined as shares (other than shares acquired directly from the Maryland real estate investment trust) that, when aggregated with other shares controlled by the shareholder, entitle the shareholder to exercise or direct the

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exercise of voting power, except solely by virtue of a revocable proxy, in electing trustees within one of three increasing ranges of voting power) acquired in a "control share acquisition" (defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of issued and outstanding "control shares") have no voting rights with respect to their control shares, except to the extent approved by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding all interested shares; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Title 3, Subtitle 8 of the MGCL, which permits the board of trustees of a Maryland real estate investment trust, without shareholder approval and notwithstanding any contrary provisions in the declaration of trust or bylaws, to implement certain takeover defenses, such as a classified board, some of which we do not yet have.

As permitted by the MGCL, we have elected to opt out of the business combination and control share provisions of the MGCL. However, we cannot assure you that our Board will not opt to be subject to such provisions of the MGCL in the future, including opting to be subject to such provisions retroactively.

Further, the MGCL, applicable through provision in the Maryland REIT Law (the "MRL"), provides that an act of a trustee relating to or affecting an acquisition or investment or a potential acquisition of control of a Maryland real estate investment trust may not be subject to a higher duty or greater scrutiny than is applied to any other act of a trustee. Hence, trustees of a Maryland real estate investment trust by statute are not required to act in certain takeover situations under the same standards of care, and are not subject to the same standards of review, as apply in Delaware and other corporate jurisdictions.

***Our rights and the rights of our shareholders to recover claims against our officers and trustees are limited, which could reduce our shareholders' and our recovery against them if they cause us to incur losses.***

Maryland law provides that a trustee has no liability in that capacity if he or she performs his or her duties in good faith, in a manner he or she reasonably believes to be in the Maryland real estate investment trust's best interests and with the care that an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. Our declaration of trust requires us to indemnify our trustees and officers to the maximum extent permitted under Maryland law. Additionally, our declaration of trust limits the liability of our present and former trustees and officers for monetary damages to the maximum extent permitted under Maryland law. Further, our declaration of trust permits the Company, with the approval of our Board, to provide such indemnification and advancement of expenses to any of our employees or agents. As a result, we and our shareholders may have more limited rights against our trustees, officers, employees and agents than might otherwise exist under common law, which could reduce our shareholders' and our recovery against them. In addition, we may be obligated to fund the defense costs incurred by our trustees, officers, employees and agents in some cases which would decrease the cash otherwise available to pay dividends to shareholders or otherwise operate our business.

***Our bylaws designate the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland as the sole and exclusive forum for certain actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our shareholders.***

Our bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of a different forum, the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, Baltimore Division, will be the sole and exclusive forum for: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought in the right or on behalf of the Company, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach by any trustee, officer, other employee or agent of the Company of a duty owed to the Company or our shareholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against us or any trustee, officer, other employee or agent of the Company arising pursuant to any provision of the MRL, our declaration of trust or our bylaws, (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any trustee, officer or other employee of the Company that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine, or (v) any Internal Corporate Claim (as defined in the MGCL). Unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. The exclusive forum provision does not apply to claims for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in our common shares will be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to these provisions of our bylaws, as they may be amended from time to time. Our Board, without shareholder approval, adopted this provision of our bylaws so that we may respond to such litigation more efficiently and reduce the costs associated with our responses to such litigation, particularly litigation that might otherwise be brought in multiple forums. This exclusive forum provision may limit a shareholder's ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that the shareholder believes is favorable for disputes with the Company or our trustees, officers, agents or employees, if any, and may discourage lawsuits against us and our trustees, officers, agents or employees, if any. Alternatively, if a court were to find this provision of our bylaws inapplicable to, or unenforceable in respect of, one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings notwithstanding that the MGCL, applicable through provisions in the MRL, provides that the declaration of trust or bylaws of a Maryland real estate investment trust may require that any internal corporate claim be brought only in courts sitting in one or more specified jurisdictions, we may incur additional costs that we do not currently anticipate associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

**General Risks** 

***Cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents or the failure to comply with laws and regulations concerning data privacy and security may adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information and information technology systems, and/or damage to our business relationships, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us.***

We rely on computer systems, hardware, software, technology infrastructure and online sites and networks for both internal and external operations that are critical to our business (collectively, "IT Systems"). We own and manage some of these IT Systems but also rely on the third parties that provide services to the Company (collectively, "Service Providers") for a range of IT Systems and related products and services, including but not limited to cloud computing services. And we collect, maintain and process confidential, sensitive, and proprietary information about investors, tenants, partners, businesses, our employees, and others, including personal information (collectively, "Confidential Information").

We face numerous and evolving cybersecurity risks that threaten the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our IT Systems and Confidential Information. The risk of a cyber incident has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks have increased globally, especially given the use of increasingly sophisticated, automated and evolving tools and techniques – including artificial intelligence. Cyber incidents may be carried out by a wide range of actors, including opportunistic hackers, organized criminal groups, hacktivists, foreign actors, or other third parties, and may occur through diverse attack vectors, such as social engineering/phishing, malware (including ransomware), malfeasance by insiders, human or technological error, and as a result of bugs, misconfigurations or exploited vulnerabilities in software or hardware. Techniques used in cyber incidents evolve frequently, may originate from less regulated and remote areas of the world and be difficult to detect and may not be recognized until launched against a target. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, making it impossible for us to entirely eliminate this risk. For example, unauthorized parties, whether within or outside the Company, may disrupt or gain access to our IT Systems, or those of third parties with whom we do business, through human error, misfeasance, fraud, trickery, or other forms of deceit, including break-ins, use of stolen credentials, social engineering, phishing, computer viruses or other malicious codes, and similar means of unauthorized and destructive tampering.

As our reliance on technology increases, so do the risks posed to our IT Systems, both internal and external, and our Confidential Information. Key risks that could directly result from the occurrence of a cyber incident are theft of assets; operational interruption; regulatory enforcement, lawsuits and other legal proceedings; damage to our relationships with our tenants; compromise of our IT Systems, and exposure of Confidential Information. A significant or prolonged cyber incident could damage our business or reputation, cause a loss of revenue, have an adverse effect on tenant relations, cause an unintended or unauthorized public disclosure, or lead to the misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information, any of which could result in significant costs, expenses and other adverse consequences. Our security measures may not be sufficient to

protect our IT Systems and the Confidential Information we maintain due to attackers using tools and techniques that are designed to circumvent controls, avoid detection and remove or obfuscate forensic evidence.

As have many companies, our Service Providers have been impacted by security incidents in the past and will likely continue to experience security incidents of varying degrees. We have limited ability to control or monitor the cybersecurity practices of our Service Providers, particularly those that provide shared or cloud-based services to multiple customers. A cybersecurity incident affecting such a Service Provider could impact us even if our own systems are not directly compromised.

We have not identified risks from known cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior cybersecurity incidents, that have had a material adverse effect on us. However, future cybersecurity incidents, whether involving us or our Service Providers, could be material to our business, financial condition or results of operations. While we do not believe these incidents have had a material impact to date, as our reliance on technology increases, so do the risks of a security incident. The Service Providers that provide cloud services and store our information are critical to our operations and could experience security incidents resulting in downtime, data breaches, data loss, or operational shutdown. The occurrence of any of the foregoing risks could have a material adverse effect on us.

In addition, our processing of personal information subjects us to various federal, state and local laws, regulations and industry standards governing the collection, use, storage, sharing, transmission and other processing of personal information. The regulatory environment surrounding information security and privacy is increasingly demanding, with frequent imposition of new and changing requirements that are subject to differing interpretations. Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with laws, regulations, policies or regulatory guidance relating to privacy or data security may result in governmental investigations and enforcement actions, litigation (including class actions), fines and penalties or adverse publicity and could cause our investors to lose trust in us, which could have an adverse effect on our reputation as well as our business, financial condition and results of operations.

There can be no assurance that our cybersecurity risk management program and processes, including our policies, controls or procedures, will be fully implemented, complied with or effective in protecting our systems and information. While we maintain insurance coverage for certain cybersecurity risks, such coverage may be insufficient to cover all losses or may not be available on acceptable terms in the future.

***Increased environmental, social and governance scrutiny and changing expectations from stakeholders may impose additional costs and expose us to new risks.***

Business across all industries have faced scrutiny from stakeholders related to their environmental, social and governance ("ESG") practices. Certain organizations that provide corporate governance and other corporate risk information to investors and shareholders have developed scores and ratings to evaluate companies and investment funds based upon ESG or "sustainability" metrics. Currently, there are no universal standards for such scores or ratings. Investment funds have and may focus on positive ESG business practices and sustainability scores when making investments and may consider a company's sustainability score as a reputational or other factor in making an investment decision. A low sustainability score could result in a negative perception of the Company, or exclusion of our common shares from consideration by certain investors. Additionally, we may be unable to attract and retain qualified personnel if candidates believe that our corporate responsibility procedures or standards are not adequate.

As with other companies, our approach to ESG matters, particularly environmental matters, evolves over time, and we cannot guarantee that our approach will align with the expectations or preferences of any particular stakeholder.

***We may be subject to litigation relating to our business, which could have a material adverse effect on us and could result in significant defense costs and potentially significant judgments against us.***

We may be subject to litigation relating to our business including securities class action litigation following any period of volatility in the price of our common shares. Any such litigation could result in significant defense costs and potentially significant judgments against us for which we may not be insured. While we generally intend to vigorously defend ourselves in any such litigation, we cannot be certain of the ultimate outcomes of any such litigation or claims that may be asserted against us. Unfavorable resolution of such litigation may result in our having to pay significant fines, judgments, or settlements, which, if uninsured (or if the fines, judgments and settlements exceed insured levels), would adversely impact our cash flows, thereby negatively impacting our ability to service debt and pay dividends to our shareholders, which may have a material adverse effect on us. Certain litigation, or the resolution of certain litigation, may affect the availability or cost of some of our insurance coverage, expose us to increased risks that would be uninsured, or adversely impact our ability to attract officers and trustees, each of which may have a material adverse effect on us, as well as divert the attention of management.

**Risks Related to the Proposed Mergers**

<u>[Table of](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[C](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)[ontents](#id0e29908737d4eb0ac3e5211656c7e66_7)</u>

***The announcement and pendency of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.***

Uncertainty about the effect of the proposed Mergers on our employees, tenants, potential tenants and other third parties may disrupt our leasing or other key business activities and may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as the market price of our common shares. For example, tenants and other third parties may defer decisions concerning working with us, or, if applicable, seek to change existing business relationships with us. In addition, parties with whom we otherwise may have sought to establish business relationships may seek alternative relationships with third parties. Current employees may experience uncertainty about their roles following the proposed Mergers, and this may have an effect on our corporate culture, ability to retain current employees and/or hire new employees. Any loss or distraction of such employees could have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. In addition, we have devoted, and will continue to devote, significant management and other internal resources towards the completion of the proposed Mergers and planning for integration, which could significantly adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Merger Agreement generally requires us to operate our business in the ordinary course pending consummation of the proposed Mergers and generally restricts us from taking certain specified actions until the proposed Mergers are completed. These restrictions may affect our ability to execute our business strategies, to respond effectively to competitive pressures and industry developments, and to attain our financial and other goals and may otherwise harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***The consummation of the proposed Mergers is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among others, the approval of the Company Merger by our shareholders, some or all of which may not be satisfied or completed within the expected timeframe, if at all.***

Completion of the proposed Mergers is subject to a number of closing conditions, including, among others, the approval of the Company Merger by the affirmative vote of the holders of our common shares entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at a shareholder meeting on the Company Merger. We can provide no assurance that such approval will be obtained or that all closing conditions will otherwise be satisfied (or waived, if applicable), and, even if such approval can be obtained and all closing conditions are satisfied (or waived, if applicable), we can provide no assurance that other events will not intervene to delay the proposed Mergers or result in the termination of the Merger Agreement. Any adverse consequence of the proposed Mergers could be exacerbated by any delays in completion of the proposed Mergers or termination of the Merger Agreement.

Each party's obligation to consummate the proposed Mergers is also subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party (subject to customary materiality qualifications) and compliance in all material respects with the covenants and agreements contained in the Merger Agreement as of the closing of the proposed Mergers, including, with respect to us, covenants to conduct our business in the ordinary course and to not engage in certain kinds of transactions prior to closing (with certain specified exceptions). In addition, the Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain specified circumstances, including, but not limited to, in connection with a change in the recommendation of our Board to enter into an agreement for certain alternate proposals. As a result, we cannot assure you that the proposed Mergers will be completed even if our shareholders approve the Company Merger, or that, if completed, it will be exactly on the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement or within the expected timeframe.

***We may not complete the proposed Mergers within the timeframe anticipated or at all, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and the market price of our common shares.***

The proposed Mergers may not be completed within the expected timeframe, or at all, as a result of various factors and conditions, some of which may be beyond our control. If the proposed Mergers are not completed for any reason, including as a result of the shareholders failing to approve the Company Merger, our shareholders will not receive any payment for their common shares. Instead, we will remain a public company, our common shares will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE and registered under the Exchange Act, and we will be required to continue to file periodic reports with the SEC. Moreover, our ongoing business may be significantly adversely affected, and we would be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including negative impacts on share price, and it is uncertain when, if ever, the price of our common shares would return to the prices at which our common shares currently trade;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may experience negative publicity, which could have an adverse effect on our ongoing operations including, but not limited to, retaining and attracting tenants and employees;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we will still be required to pay certain significant costs relating to the proposed Mergers, such as financial advisory, legal, accounting, consulting and other advisory fees, severance/employee benefit-related costs, financing-related fees and costs, public company filing fees and other regulatory fees, printing costs and other related costs, which may relate to activities that we would not have undertaken other than in connection with the proposed Mergers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may be required to pay a cash termination fee to Parent of up to $34.0 million, as required under the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• while the Merger Agreement is in effect, we are subject to restrictions on our business activities, including, among other things, restrictions on our ability to engage in certain kinds of material transactions, including, subject to certain exceptions, acquiring other properties or disposing of currently owned properties, making capital expenditures, or incurring indebtedness, which could prevent us from pursuing strategic business opportunities, taking actions with respect to the business that we may consider advantageous and responding effectively and/or timely to competitive pressures and industry developments, and may, as a result, significantly adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• matters relating to the proposed Mergers require substantial commitments of time and resources by management, which could result in the distraction of management from ongoing business operations and pursuing other opportunities that could have been beneficial to us; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may commit significant time and resources to defending against litigation related to the proposed Mergers.

If the proposed Mergers are not consummated, the risks described above may materialize, and they may have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and the market price of our common shares, particularly to the extent that the current market price of our common shares reflects an assumption that the proposed Mergers will be completed.

***In certain instances, the Merger Agreement requires us to pay a termination fee to Parent, which could affect the decisions of a third party considering making an alternative acquisition proposal.***

In certain specified circumstances further described in the Merger Agreement, in connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement, we will be required to pay Parent a termination fee of up to $34.0 million, including if Parent terminates the Merger Agreement after our Board changes its recommendation to the shareholders or if the Company terminates the Merger Agreement to enter into an alternative acquisition agreement with respect to certain alternative transactions. This payment could affect the structure, pricing and terms proposed by a third party seeking to acquire or merge with us and could discourage a third party from making a competing acquisition proposal or inquiry, including a proposal that would be more favorable to our shareholders than the proposed Mergers. For these and other reasons, termination of the Merger Agreement could significantly adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and the market price of our common shares.

***We may be the target of securities class action and derivative lawsuits which could result in substantial costs and may delay or prevent the proposed Mergers from being completed.***

Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered into merger agreements. Even if the lawsuits are without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management's time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, which could have a negative impact on our liquidity and financial condition. Additionally, if a plaintiff is successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting completion of the proposed Mergers, then that injunction may delay or prevent the proposed Mergers from being completed, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***We have incurred and will incur a number of non-recurring costs associated with the proposed Mergers.***

We have incurred and expect to incur a number of non-recurring costs associated with the proposed Mergers, for which we will receive little or no benefit if the proposed Mergers are not completed. These costs include financial advisory, legal, accounting, consulting and other advisory fees, severance/employee benefit-related costs, financing-related fees and costs, public company filing fees and other regulatory fees, printing costs and other related costs. There are a number of factors beyond our control that could affect the total amount or the timing of these costs and expenses. Many of these costs are payable by us regardless of whether or not the proposed Mergers are completed and may relate to activities that we would not have undertaken other than to complete the proposed Mergers.

Not Applicable.

**ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY** 

**Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy** 

The cybersecurity risk management program, processes and strategy described in this section are limited to the personal and business information belonging to or maintained by the Company (collectively, "Confidential Information") and our own third-party critical systems and services supporting or used by the Company (collectively, "Critical Systems"). The Company's subsidiaries lease to and, in some instances, manage for our tenants the properties we own, but we do not have actual or contractual access to the systems or information maintained or used by our tenants. Our tenants are directly or indirectly (through their own service providers) responsible for maintaining programs and processes to protect their systems and information from various risks from cybersecurity threats.

We have developed and implemented a cybersecurity risk management program intended to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our Confidential Information and Critical Systems. Our cybersecurity risk management program is integrated into our overall enterprise risk management program, and shares common methodologies, reporting channels and governance processes that apply across the risk management program to other legal, compliance, strategic, operational, and financial risk areas.

We design and assess our program based on industry standard cybersecurity frameworks published by the International Organization for Standardization and the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This does not imply that we meet any particular technical standards, specifications, or requirements, but only that we may source controls applicable to our industry from these frameworks as a guide to help us identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks relevant to our business.

Key elements of our cybersecurity risk management program include but are not limited to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• risk assessments designed to help identify material risks from cybersecurity threats to our Confidential Information and Critical Systems;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a security team principally responsible for managing (1) our cybersecurity risk assessment processes, (2) our security controls, and (3) our response to cybersecurity incidents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the use of external service providers, where appropriate, to assess, test or otherwise assist with aspects of our security processes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• cybersecurity awareness and spear-phishing resistance training of our employees, incident response personnel, and senior management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a cybersecurity incident response plan that includes procedures for responding to cybersecurity incidents; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a vendor management policy for key service providers based on our assessment of their criticality to our operations and respective risk profiles, which may include service providers that provide an automated service or system that stores, transmits or processes our Confidential Information.

We have not identified risks from known cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our operations, business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. We face risks from cybersecurity threats that, if realized, could have a material adverse effect on us including an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. *See "Risk Factors—General Risks—Cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents or the failure to comply with laws and regulations concerning data privacy and security may adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information, and/or damage to our business relationships, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us."*

**Cybersecurity Governance**

A security team consisting of our executive management team, our Managing Director, Administration and Legal, and our managed information technology Service Provider, Porcaro Stolarek Mete Partners, LLC ("PSM Partners"), is responsible for assessing and managing risks from cybersecurity threats to the Company, including our Confidential Information and Critical Systems. The team has primary responsibility for our overall cybersecurity risk management program. PSM Partners has

provided information technology support, cybersecurity audits, and full-coverage managed IT services to financial industry participants for over a decade.

Our management team meets with our information technology Service Provider regularly to discuss then-current cybersecurity issues, which may include efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate, and remediate cybersecurity risks and incidents through various means, including threat intelligence and other information obtained from governmental, public or private sources, and external service providers engaged by us; and alerts and reports produced by security tools deployed in the information technology environment including a spear-phishing report.

Our Board considers cybersecurity risk as part of its risk oversight function and has delegated to the Audit Committee of the Board (the "Audit Committee") oversight of cybersecurity and other information technology risks. The Audit Committee oversees management's implementation of our cybersecurity risk management program.

The Audit Committee receives periodic reports from management or our information technology Service Provider on our cybersecurity risks and cybersecurity risk management program. In addition, the executive management team is responsible for updating the Audit Committee, as necessary, regarding significant cybersecurity incidents.

The Audit Committee reports to the full Board regarding its activities, including those related to cybersecurity. The full Board also receives period reports from management or our information technology Service Provider on our cybersecurity risks and cybersecurity risk management program. Our Board also receives presentations on cybersecurity topics from our information technology Service Provider as part of the Board's continuing education on topics that impact public companies.

**ITEM 2. PROPERTIES**

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has one reportable Industrial segment, which includes 76 industrial properties comprised of 60 IOS properties and 16 Traditional Industrial properties. Of the 76 properties in our portfolio, 72 were operating properties and four were designated for redevelopment or repositioning.

See Part IV, Item 15. "Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules—Schedule III—Real Estate and Accumulated Depreciation and Amortization," of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a detailed listing of our properties. See Note 5, *Debt*, to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information about our indebtedness secured by our properties.

**Revenue Concentration**

The tables below present the Company's revenue concentrations for its Industrial segment based on Annualized Base Rent ("ABR"), as defined below.

ABR is calculated as the monthly contractual base rent for leases that have commenced as of the end of the quarter, excluding rent abatements, multiplied by 12 months and deducting base year operating expenses for gross and modified leases, unless otherwise specified. For leases in effect at the end of any quarter that provide for rent abatement during the last month of that quarter, the Company used the monthly contractual base rent payable following expiration of the abatement period.

**Leasing Information**

As of December 31, 2025, we estimate that the current average market rental rates for leases for the operating properties in our Industrial segment, that are scheduled to expire within the next four years are approximately 20% to 25% greater than the weighted average in-place cash rental rates.

Our estimates regarding current average market rental rates are based on our internal analysis and/or third-party broker input, when available, and there is no assurance that these estimates will prove to be accurate. Market rental rates and the demand for our properties are impacted by general economic conditions, including the pace of economic growth, inflation, interest rates, and labor market and demographic trends in the submarkets in which our properties are located. Therefore, there is no assurance that expiring leases will be renewed or that available space will be re-leased above, below or at current market rental rates.

The following tables set forth certain information regarding our leasing activity during the year ended December 31, 2025 for our leases based on square footage and usable acres. For each lease, the Company presents (i) "GAAP Rent Change", which is calculated as the percentage change between GAAP rents for new/renewal leases and the expiring GAAP rents of comparable leases for the same space and (ii) "Cash Rent Change", which is calculated as the percentage change between cash rents for new/renewal leases and the expiring cash rents of comparable leases for the same space, excluding any rent abatements. We do not calculate GAAP Rent Change and Cash Rent Change for lease comparisons if either lease involved has any of the following characteristics, as we believe such leases do not provide a reliable basis for comparison: (i) the lease is for space that has never been leased under our ownership, (ii) the lease is for space that has been redeveloped or repositioned, (iii) the lease has a structure that is not comparable to the other lease or (iv) the lease term is less than 12 months.

**ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**

The following "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

**Overview**

Peakstone Realty Trust (NYSE: PKST) is an industrial real estate investment trust ("REIT"), with a strategic focus on growth in the industrial outdoor storage ("IOS") sector.

PKST OP, L.P., our operating partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), owns, directly and indirectly all of the Company's assets. As of December 31, 2025, the Company owned, directly and indirectly through a wholly-owned subsidiary, approximately 93.2% of the outstanding common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership ("OP Units").

As of December 31, 2025, our portfolio consisted of 76 industrial properties within one reportable segment (the "Industrial" segment). The portfolio included 60 IOS properties and 16 Traditional Industrial properties. IOS properties have a low building-to-land ratio, or low coverage, maximizing yard space for the display, movement and storage of materials and equipment. "Traditional Industrial" properties include distribution, warehouse, and light manufacturing facilities. Of the 76 properties in our portfolio, 72 were operating properties and four were designated for redevelopment or repositioning.

During 2025, the Company completed its strategic transformation to an industrial-only REIT through the disposition of all properties in its Office segment. As a result, the Office segment was eliminated as of December 31, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the Company's plan to dispose of its Office segment properties represented a strategic shift in its business that met the criteria for classification as discontinued operations. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2025, 27 Office segment properties were classified as discontinued operations (the "Office Discontinued Operations Properties"). The Company presented the results of the Office segment through the year ended December 31, 2025, with results attributable to the Office Discontinued Operations Properties presented separately as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

**Highlights**

The following provides a summary of the significant developments related to our business during the year ended December 31, 2025:

***Transaction Activity:***

*Office Dispositions*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*•* During the year ended December 31, 2025, we sold 33 Office segment properties (27 of which are the Office Discontinued Operations Properties) for an aggregate gross sales price of approximately $883.7 million. As a result of these dispositions, we have eliminated our Office segment.

*Traditional Industrial Dispositions*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*•* During the year ended December 31, 2025, we sold three Traditional Industrial properties for an aggregate gross sales price of approximately $71.6 million.

*IOS Acquisitions*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• During the year ended December 31, 2025, we acquired nine individual IOS properties consisting of approximately 66 total usable acres located across Florida, Georgia, Tennessee and Texas for an aggregate contractual purchase price of approximately $96.2 million.

------

***Leasing Activity:***

*IOS Leasing*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the year ended December 31, 2025, we executed six new leases and four lease extensions for our IOS properties covering 84.8 usable acres, with a weighted average lease term of 6.3 years resulting in weighted average releasing spreads of 55.5% (GAAP) and 52.8% (Cash).

***Financing Activity:***

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we reduced our outstanding debt balance by an aggregate of $874.4 million as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We partially repaid $159.4 million of the outstanding principal balance of our BOA II secured loan ("BOA II Loan") using proceeds from the disposition of two Office Discontinued Operations properties located in Birmingham, Alabama and Las Vegas, Nevada.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We reduced the $465.0 million outstanding balance under the senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Loan") to zero.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We repaid the outstanding principal balance of the $150.0 million senior unsecured term loan maturing in April 2026 (the "2026 Term Loan") in full.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We repaid $100.0 million of the senior unsecured term loan maturing in July 2028 (the "2028 Term Loan I").

***Proposed Mergers***

On February 2, 2026, the Company Parties and the Parent Parties entered into the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (i) Operating Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Operating Partnership, with the Operating Partnership surviving the merger and (ii) immediately following the consummation of the Partnership Merger, REIT Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger. Upon completion of the Company Merger, Parent (or subsidiaries thereof) will be the sole common shareholders of the Surviving Entity, and the Surviving Partnership will be wholly owned by Parent and the Surviving Entity (or subsidiaries thereof).

The Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were unanimously approved and declared advisable by the Board.

At the Company Merger Effective Time, each common share, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $21.00 per share, without interest.

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the Partnership Merger Effective Time, each Operating Partnership Common Unit that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the REIT Shares Amount (as defined in the Eighth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the Operating Partnership, dated as of April 13, 2023, by and between the Company and the limited partners party thereto, as amended, in effect on such date with respect to such Operating Partnership Common Units) multiplied by (ii) $21.00, without interest.

The Merger Agreement contains customary termination rights, including the right of either party to terminate the Merger Agreement if the Mergers have not been completed by 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on August 2, 2026, or if shareholder approval has not been obtained upon a vote taken at a shareholders meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

In certain specified circumstances further described in the Merger Agreement, in connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement, the Company will be required to pay Parent a termination payment of $16.0 million or $34.0 million, as applicable pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

The Parent Parties have secured committed financing, consisting of a combination of (i) equity financing to be provided by investment funds affiliated with Parent on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in an equity commitment letter provided by such funds, and (ii) debt financing to be provided by certain lenders on the terms and subject to the conditions set

------

forth in a debt commitment letter, the aggregate proceeds of which will be sufficient for the Parent Parties to pay all amounts the Parent Parties may be obligated to pay pursuant to the Merger Agreement or the Mergers.

**Results of Operations**

***Overview***

Our business strategy is to operate, enhance, and grow our industrial portfolio, with a strategic emphasis on industrial outdoor storage ("IOS") assets. We focus on disciplined capital allocation and financial flexibility.

***Business Environment***

Real estate investors continue to closely monitor current market conditions, which are shaped by a mix of economic factors, geopolitical tensions, and evolving monetary and trade policies, including tariffs. Despite ongoing uncertainty, general market sentiment seems to be cautiously optimistic.

In the industrial sector, fundamental demand drivers remain strong, even as broader economic conditions fluctuate. Structural trends – including the onshoring and nearshoring of manufacturing and warehousing operations, projected growth in U.S. industrial production, modernization of domestic supply chains, and continued expansion of e-commerce – are anticipated to drive sustained demand over the long-term.

At the same time, several factors are contributing to a more constrained supply environment. These include a reduced pace of new construction, a limited supply of sites zoned for broad industrial use, power capacity constraints, municipal resistance to new industrial development, particularly in densely populated areas, and the redevelopment of infill properties into alternative uses. Collectively, these dynamics are creating a balanced but disciplined market environment, characterized by more normalized leasing trends and strong long-term fundamentals for U.S. industrial real estate

We believe that our well-diversified industrial portfolio positions us favorably to navigate the current environment while capitalizing on opportunities as the market cycle evolves.

For a discussion of material trends and uncertainties that have impacted or may impact the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, see (i) the discussion above, and (ii) the risks highlighted in the "Risk Factors" section in Part I.

***Segment Information***

Michael Escalante, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, is identified as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"). The CODM evaluates the Company's portfolio and assesses the ongoing operations and performance of its properties within each reportable segment. The CODM evaluates the performance of each segment based on segment net operating income ("NOI"), which is calculated as net income or loss excluding (to the extent applicable during the periods presented) general and administrative expenses, corporate operating expenses to related parties, impairment of real estate, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income, net, gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt, gains or losses on sales of real estate, impairment of goodwill, investment income or loss, transaction expense and net income or loss from discontinued operations and equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures. This measure is used by the CODM to make decisions about resource allocation and evaluate the financial performance of each segment. Segment NOI is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities, is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies calculate segment profit measures in the same manner. The Company considers segment NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income or loss because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core operations of our properties.

*Industrial Segment*

As of December 31, 2025, the Company's portfolio consisted of 76 properties within one reportable Industrial segment. The portfolio included 60 IOS properties and 16 Traditional Industrial properties. Of the 76 properties in the Company's portfolio, 72 were operating properties and four were designated for redevelopment or repositioning.

------

*Office Segment Disposal in 2025*

As of December 31, 2025, the Company completed the disposition of all Office segment properties, including the Office Discontinued Operations Properties. Therefore, as of December 31, 2025, the Office segment was eliminated. The Company presented the results of the Office segment through the year ended December 31, 2025, reflecting the Company's ownership of the Office segment properties during that period. The results of the Office Discontinued Operations Properties have been separately reported within "*Net income from discontinued operations*" for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 on the consolidated statement of operations. As such, the Office Discontinued Operations Properties are excluded from NOI metrics (refer to sections below).

*Other Segment Disposal in 2024*

Prior to December 31, 2024, the Company presented a third reportable segment, the "Other" segment, which consisted of vacant and non-core properties, together with other properties in the same cross-collateralized loan pools. On December 31, 2024, the Company sold the final property in its Other segment, and as a result, the Other segment was eliminated. The Company presented the results of the Other segment through the year ended December 31, 2024.

***Same Store Analysis***

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our Same Store portfolio was comprised of 16 Industrial segment properties, all of which were Traditional Industrial properties, encompassing approximately 8.2 million square feet.

***Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2025 to the Year Ended December 31, 2024***

| **Industrial Same Store NOI** | $**46029** | $**45539** | $**490** | 1% |

---

*Industrial Same Store NOI*

For this comparison period, Industrial Same Store NOI increased by $0.5 million primarily due to leasing activity and the timing of operating expense recoveries, partially offset by the reversal of straight-line rent receivables and the recognition of rental income on a cash basis for a tenant for which collectability was no longer probable.

The Company recognized net income from discontinued operations of $38.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to a net loss of $92.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to impairments recognized on Office Discontinued Operations Properties in 2023. Refer to Note 2, *Basis of Presentation* and *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies*, for further information.

**Critical Accounting Estimates**

We have established accounting estimates which conform to GAAP. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to the various transactions had been different, it is possible that different estimates would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may use different estimates and assumptions that may impact the comparability of our financial condition and results of operations to those companies. For further discussion on our significant accounting policies and discussion of new accounting pronouncements, see Note 2, *Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,* to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the following critical accounting estimates reflects what we believe are the most significant estimates, assumptions, and judgments that have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial conditions or our results of operations.

***Acquisitions of Real Estate***

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we acquired nine IOS properties which were accounted for as asset acquisitions. For asset acquisitions, the Company allocates the acquisition cost, which assigns both cash and non-cash consideration paid to the seller and associated acquisition transaction costs, to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed (including tangible assets and intangible assets and liabilities), according to their respective relative fair values.

*Tangible Assets Acquired*

The tangible assets consist of land, buildings, and site improvements. Land is typically valued utilizing the sales comparison (or market) approach. Buildings are valued, as if vacant, using the cost and/or income approach. Site improvements are valued using the cost approach.

Under the cost approach, the fair value of real estate is based on estimated costs to construct a vacant building or site improvement, as applicable, with similar characteristics.

Under the income approach, we use the discounted cash flow method, which includes Level 3 unobservable inputs. For the discounted cash flow method, the fair value of real estate is determined (i) by applying a discounted cash flow analysis to the estimated net operating income for each property in the portfolio during the remaining anticipated lease term and over any additional hypothetical lease terms assumed and (ii) by the estimated residual value, which is based on a hypothetical sale of the property upon expiration of a lease factoring in the re-tenanting of such property at estimated market rental rates, and applying a selected capitalization rate. The respective Level 3 inputs include discount rates, capitalization rates, market rental rates and comparable sales data, including land sales for similar properties. The estimated future cash flows account for various factors, including historical performance, anticipated trends, and prevailing market and economic conditions.

*Intangible Assets and Liabilities Acquired*

The intangible assets and liabilities include the above- and below-market value of leases and the in-place leases, which include the value of tenant relationships. In assessing the fair value of intangible lease assets or liabilities, the Company, similarly, considers Level 3 inputs. Acquired above- and below-market leases are valued based on the present value of the difference between prevailing market rental rates and the in-place rental rates measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases determined to be reasonably certain of exercise, if applicable. The estimated fair value of acquired in-place at-market tenant leases is estimated based on the costs that would have been incurred to lease the property to the occupancy

------

level at the acquisition date. This includes leasing commissions, legal and other costs, along with the estimated time necessary to lease the property to its occupancy level at the time of acquisition.

If a lease is terminated, we charge the unamortized portion of above- and below-market lease values to rental income and in-place lease values to amortization expense. If a lease is amended, we will determine whether the economics of the amended lease continue to support the existence of the above- or below-market lease intangibles. If circumstances indicate that the assumed exercise of renewal options has changed, we will reassess the expected lease term and adjust the remaining amortization period prospectively, accelerating or extending the recognition of the related intangibles as appropriate.

Refer to Note 3, *Real Estate*, to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for details.

***Impairment of Real Estate and Related Intangible Assets and Liabilities***

In accordance with the provisions of the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of ASC 360, where indicators of impairment exist, we evaluate the recoverability of our real estate assets by comparing the carrying amounts of the assets to the estimated undiscounted cash flows. Recoverability of real estate assets requires estimates of future market and economic conditions, including assumptions related to estimated selling prices, anticipated hold periods, potential vacancies, capitalization rates, market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, and property operating expenses.

When the carrying amounts of the real estate assets are not recoverable based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows, we calculate an impairment charge in the amount the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the real estate asset as of the measurement date. Fair value is determined through certain valuation techniques involving (i) discounted cash flow models applying significant assumptions related to market rent, terminal capitalization rates, and discount rates or (ii) estimated selling prices based on quoted market values and comparable property sales.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded an impairment provision related to 24 properties, consisting of 23 Office segment properties (19 of which were Office Discontinued Operation Properties) and one Industrial segment property. These impairments resulted from changes during the year related to shortened anticipated hold periods and estimated selling prices. As part of our impairment analysis, we noted certain properties that had potential indicators of impairment, but the future undiscounted cash flows were sufficient to recover the carrying amount. Refer to Note 3, *Real Estate*, to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for details.

***Impairment of Goodwill***

The Company's goodwill has an indeterminate life and is not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually for each reporting unit, as applicable, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill is more likely than not impaired. When testing, the Company performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether a potential impairment of goodwill exists prior to quantitatively estimating the fair value of each relevant reporting unit. If an impairment exists, the Company recognizes an impairment of goodwill based on the excess of the reporting unit's carrying value compared to its fair value, up to the amount of goodwill for that reporting unit. Under the quantitative assessment, the Company focuses on the fair value of real estate assets and related mortgage loans, as those comprise the significant components of fair value within each reporting unit. The analysis involves estimates around significant assumptions related to market rent, discount rates, terminal capitalization rates, and borrowing rates. Refer to Note 8, *Fair Value Measurements*, to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional details related to impairment of goodwill.

**Funds from Operations, Core Funds from Operations, and Adjusted Funds from Operations** 

We use Funds from Operations ("FFO"), Core Funds from Operation ("Core FFO") and Adjusted Funds from Operations ("AFFO") as supplemental financial measures of our performance. These measures are used by management as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use these measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net earnings computed under GAAP, as indicators of our operating performance, as alternatives to cash from operating activities computed under GAAP or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.

The summary below describes the way we use these measures, provides information regarding why we believe these measures are meaningful supplemental measures of performance and reconciles these measures from net income or loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

------

***FFO***

We compute FFO in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). FFO is defined as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, impairment losses of depreciable real estate assets, gains (losses) from sales of depreciable real estate assets and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. FFO is used to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other REITs, primarily because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains (losses) from real estate sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other REITs. It should be noted, however, that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do, making comparisons less meaningful.

***Core FFO***

We compute Core FFO by adjusting FFO, as defined by NAREIT, to exclude certain items such as gain or loss from the extinguishment of debt, goodwill impairment, unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments, employee separation expense, transaction expenses, lease termination fees, and other items not related to ongoing operating performance of our properties. We believe that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure in addition to FFO because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to our core business operations. As with FFO, our reported Core FFO may not be comparable to Core FFO as defined by other REITs.

***AFFO***

AFFO is presented in addition to Core FFO. AFFO further adjusts Core FFO for certain other non-cash items, including straight-line rent adjustment, amortization of share-based compensation, deferred rent – ground lease, non-cash amortization items (e.g., amortization of above- and below-market rent, net, debt premium and discount, net, ground lease interests, tax benefits and deferred financing costs) and other non-cash transactions. We believe AFFO provides a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance and is useful in comparing our operating performance with other REITs that may not be involved in similar transactions or activities.

***NOI and Cash NOI***

Net operating income ("NOI") is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as net income or loss, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, excluding (to the extent applicable during the periods presented) general and administrative expenses, corporate operating expenses to related parties, impairment of real estate, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income, net, gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt, gains or losses on sales of real estate, impairment of goodwill, investment income or loss, transaction expense and net income or loss from discontinued operations and equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures. NOI on a cash basis ("Cash NOI") is NOI adjusted to exclude the effect of straight-line rent, amortization of acquired above- and below-market lease intangibles, deferred termination income, other deferred adjustments and amortization of other intangibles.

We believe that NOI and Cash NOI are helpful to investors as additional measures of operating performance because we believe they help both investors and management to understand the core operations of our properties excluding corporate and financing-related costs and non-cash depreciation and amortization. NOI and Cash NOI are unlevered operating performance metrics of our properties and allow for a useful comparison of the operating performance of individual assets or groups of assets. These measures thereby provide an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP income from operations or net income. In addition, NOI and Cash NOI are considered by many in the real estate industry to be useful starting points for determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets.

Because NOI and Cash NOI exclude depreciation and amortization and capture neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and capitalized leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of NOI and Cash NOI as measures of our performance is limited. Therefore, NOI and Cash NOI should not be considered as alternatives to net income or loss, as computed in accordance with GAAP. NOI and Cash NOI may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Our calculation of each of NOI and Cash NOI is presented in the following tables for the year ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 (dollars in thousands):

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

***Overview***

We believe that cash flow generated from our properties will continue to enable us to fund our normal operating expenses, regular debt service obligations, capital expenditures, possible acquisitions of, or investments in, assets, and all dividends and distribution requirements in accordance with applicable REIT requirements in both the short-term and long-term. Furthermore, we expect that cash on hand, borrowings from our Revolving Credit Facility, proceeds from mortgage financing and other debt, proceeds from the sale of properties, and issuances of equity will provide other potential sources of capital. To the extent we are not able to secure other potential sources of capital, we will be heavily dependent upon income from operations and our current financing.

***Sources of Liquidity***

*Cash Resources*

As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $138.7 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand. Our principal source of liquidity is cash flow generated from our properties, which we expect to be adequate to fund our liquidity needs. However, a number of factors could have an adverse impact, including decreases in occupancy levels and rental rates, the ability and willingness of our tenants to pay rent, the timing and success of our investment activities, the impact of our disposition activities, and general financial and economic conditions.

*Credit Facility*

As of December 31, 2025, pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, the Operating Partnership, as the borrower, has been provided with a $832.0 million credit facility (with the right to elect to increase total commitments to $1.3 billion) consisting of (i) a $547.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), under which the Operating Partnership had no amounts drawn (the "Revolving Loan"), (ii) a $110.0 million senior unsecured term loan maturing in July 2028 (the "2028 Term Loan I"), and (iii) a $175.0 million senior unsecured term loan maturing in October 2028, assuming the one-year extension option is exercised (the "2028 Term Loan II" and together with the Revolving Loan and the 2028 Term Loan I, the "KeyBank Loans"). The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also provides the option, subject to obtaining additional commitments from lenders and certain other customary conditions, to increase the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, to increase the existing term loans and/or incur new term loans by up to an additional $468.0 million in the aggregate. As of December 31, 2025, the available undrawn capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility was $240.7 million.

*ATM Program*

In August 2023, we entered into an at-the-market equity offering (the "ATM") pursuant to which we may sell common shares up to an aggregate purchase price of $200.0 million. We may sell such shares in amounts and at times to be determined by us from time to time, but we have no obligation to sell any of the shares. Actual sales, if any, will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including, among other things, market conditions, the trading price of our common shares, capital needs, and our determinations of the appropriate sources of funding. As of December 31, 2025, we have not sold any shares under the ATM program.

*Other Potential Sources of Capital*

Other potential sources of capital include proceeds from private or public offerings of our common shares, proceeds from secured or unsecured financings from banks or other lenders, including debt assumed in a real estate transaction, and entering into joint venture arrangements to invest in assets. If necessary, we may use other sources of capital in the event of unforeseen expenditures.

------

***Uses of Liquidity***

As of December 31, 2025, we expect our significant short-term and long-term liquidity requirements will include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• making scheduled principal and interest payments on our outstanding debt obligations (see "*Debt and Lease Obligations*" section below);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• making scheduled payments on our corporate office lease obligations (see "*Debt and Lease Obligations*" section below);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• paying dividends and distributions approved by the Board, including those necessary to maintain the Company's REIT status under the Code (refer to "*Dividends and Distributions*" section below);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• funding contractual commitments, including operating expenses and capital expenses (as of December 31, 2025,the aggregate remaining contractual capital expenses commitment was approximately $2.2 million); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• funding future property acquisitions.

*Debt and Corporate Office Lease Obligations*

The following amounts represent our debt and ground lease obligations as of December 31, 2025 (dollars in thousands):

---

| | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Debt and Lease Obligations** | **Total Payments** | **2026** | **2027** | **2028** | **2029** | **2030** | **Thereafter** |
| Outstanding debt obligations <sup>(1)</sup> | $485936 | $— | $— | $375610 | $60722 | $— | $49604 |
| Interest on outstanding debt obligations <sup>(2)</sup> | 93328 | 30809 | 26673 | 22906 | 6560 | 2718 | 3662 |

(1)Amounts reflect principal payments.

(2)Projected interest payments are based on the outstanding principal amounts at December 31, 2025. Projected interest payments on our unsecured debt are based on the Contractual Interest Rates (refer to "*Outstanding Indebtedness*" section below) in effect at December 31, 2025.

(3)As of December 31, 2025, the Company entered into a 10-year lease for its future corporate headquarters in El Segundo, CA, which is expected to commence in 2026 (refer to Note 12, *Leases*, for further details). Aggregate future lease payments under this agreement are expected to approximate $6.6 million.

*Dividends and Distributions*

Dividends and distributions, as applicable, will be authorized at the discretion of our Board and be paid to our shareholders and holders of OP Units as of the record date selected by our Board. We expect to pay dividends and distributions, as applicable, on a quarterly basis unless our results of operations, our general financial condition, general economic conditions, or other factors inhibit us from doing so, including the terms of the Merger Agreement. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, our Board declared an all-cash dividend in the amount of $0.10 per common share and all-cash distribution in the amount of $0.10 per OP Unit.

Additionally, to qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements on a continuing basis, including the requirement that we annually distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends and distributions paid deduction and excluding net capital gain, to our shareholders and holders of OP Units. As a result of this requirement, we cannot rely on retained earnings to fund our business needs to the same extent as other entities that are not REITs. If we do not have sufficient funds available to us from our operations to fund our business needs, we will need to find alternative ways to fund those needs. As of December 31, 2025, the Company believes it has satisfied the REIT requirements and all distributions were classified as return on capital.

(1)The Effective Interest Rate is calculated on a weighted average basis, using the Actual/360 interest method (where applicable), and is inclusive of the Company's floating to fixed interest rate swaps maturing on July 1, 2029 and have the effect of converting the applicable Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) to a weighted average fixed rate of 3.58%. The Effective Interest Rate is calculated based on the face value of debt outstanding (i.e., excludes debt premium/discount and debt financing costs). When adjusting for the effect of amortization of discounts/premiums and deferred financing costs, and excluding the impact of interest rate swaps, the Company's weighted average effective interest rate was 5.56%.

(2)Reflects the loan maturity dates as of December 31, 2025.

(3)The BOA II Loan has a fixed rate of interest and was originally secured by four properties. In August 2025 and December 2025, the Company paid down, in the aggregate, $159.4 million of the outstanding principal balance of its BOA II Loan using proceeds from the disposition of two Office Discontinued Operations Properties located in Birmingham, Alabama and Las Vegas, Nevada. In connection with the paydowns, the Company recognized and recorded $1.2 million within "Loss from discontinued operations" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. As of December 31, 2025, the BOA II Loan is secured by two Industrial segment properties located in Chicago, Illinois and Columbus, Ohio.

(4)The Georgia Mortgage Loan has a fixed-rate of interest and is secured by a property in Savannah, Georgia.

(5)The Illinois Mortgage Loan has a fixed-rate of interest and is secured by a property in Chicago, Illinois.

(6)The Florida Mortgage Loan has a fixed-rate of interest and is secured by a property in Jacksonville, Florida.

(7)The Contractual Interest Rate for the Company's unsecured debt uses the applicable SOFR. As of December 31, 2025, the applicable rates were 3.66% (SOFR, as calculated per the credit facility), plus spreads of 1.80% (Revolving Loan), 1.75% (2028 Term Loan I) and 1.75% (2028 Term Loan II) and a 0.1% index.

(8)The Revolving Loan was paid down to zero in December 2025.

(9)The 2026 Term Loan was paid off in full in December 2025.

(10)The Company repaid $100.0 million of the 2028 Term Loan I in December 2025 and as a result the Company recognized and recorded $0.2 million within "Loss on extinguishment of debt" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

(11)The 2028 Term Loan II has a contractual maturity of October 31, 2027. We have a one-year option to extend the maturity date to October 31, 2028, subject to certain conditions.

***Debt Covenants***

Pursuant to the terms of the Company's mortgage loans and the KeyBank Loans, the Operating Partnership, in consolidation with the Company, is subject to certain loan compliance covenants. Pursuant to the Tenth Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, certain terms related to debt covenants in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement were modified. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of December 31, 2025.

**ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

In this section, market risk generally refers to risks that affect market sensitive instruments, such as changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other relevant market changes. In this context, the primary market risk to which we believe we may be exposed is interest rate risk, including the risk of changes in the underlying rates on our variable rate debt, which may result from factors that are beyond our control. Our current indebtedness consists of the KeyBank loans and property secured mortgages as described in Note 5, *Debt****,*** to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These instruments were not entered into for trading purposes.

We have and may continue to enter into interest rate hedging instruments (collectively, "Interest Rate Swaps") to provide greater predictability in interest expense by protecting against potential increases in floating interest rates and allow for more precise budgeting, financial planning and forecasting. We will not enter into these instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The use of these types of instruments to hedge a portion of our exposure to changes in interest rates carries additional risks, such as counterparty credit risk and the legal enforceability of hedging contracts.

Changes in interest rates have different impacts on the fixed and variable rate debt. A change in interest rates on fixed rate debt impacts its fair value but has no effect on interest incurred or cash flows. A change in interest rates on variable rate debt could affect the interest incurred and cash flows and its fair value. Our future earnings and fair values relating to variable rate debt are primarily dependent upon prevalent market rates of interest, such as SOFR. However, our Interest Rate Swaps are intended to reduce the effects of interest rate changes.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company's outstanding debt totaled approximately $485.9 million (excluding unamortized deferred financing cost and discounts/premiums), and was 100% fixed-rate, inclusive of the effects of our Interest Rate Swaps. As such, as of December 31, 2025, there would be no impact to future earnings and cash flows if SOFR were to change.

Interest rate risk amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. These analyses do not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur, which may result in us taking actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, these analyses assume no changes in our financial structure.

***Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures***

Based upon, and as of the date of the evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported when required.

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of Peakstone Realty Trust

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Peakstone Realty Trust (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated February 18, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

**Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Critical Audit Matter**

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

| | ***Impairment of real estate*** |
| *Description of the Matter* | As of December 31, 2025, the Company's carrying value of real estate was $1.1 billion. As discussed in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company assesses the carrying values of its real estate assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be fully recoverable. Where indicators of impairment exist, the Company evaluates the recoverability of its real estate assets by comparing the carrying amounts of the assets to the estimated undiscounted cash flows. When the carrying amounts of the real estate assets are not recoverable based on the undiscounted cash flows, the Company will calculate an impairment charge as the amount the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the real estate property as of the measurement date. There were $18.2 million of continuing operations impairment charges and $345.5 million of discontinued operations impairment charges related to real estate recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025.<br>Auditing the Company's evaluation of whether its real estate assets are impaired was complex and involved a high degree of subjectivity in management's assumptions in estimating future cash flows as estimates and judgments underlying the determination of recoverability and fair value were based on assumptions about future market and economic conditions. Where indicators of impairment exist, the estimation required in the undiscounted future cash flows includes future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, capitalization rates, and the number of years the property is held for investment. When a property is determined to not be recoverable, the estimation required in the fair value determination includes additional assumptions around discount rates, comparable property sales, or fair value per square foot. |
| *How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit* | We tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls over real estate asset impairment, including management's review of the reasonableness of the assumptions used in the analysis.<br>Our testing of the Company's impairment assessment included, among other procedures, evaluating the Company's properties for impairment indicators based on indicators under ASC 360. For real estate properties with identified indicators of impairment, we performed audit procedures, that included, among others, testing the key assumptions used by the Company in its projections of the undiscounted future cash flows and estimated fair value of real estate assets that were impaired. With the assistance of our valuation specialists, we compared the key assumptions used by management to observable industry information to assess whether the assumptions were market supported. As part of our evaluation, we also performed sensitivity analyses on key assumptions, to assess whether changes to certain assumptions would result in a materially different outcome.<br>In addition, we performed procedures to evaluate the completeness and accuracy of the data utilized in management's impairment analysis. We also assessed information and events subsequent to the balance sheet date, if any, to corroborate certain of the key assumptions used by management. |

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of Peakstone Realty Trust

**Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

We have audited Peakstone Realty Trust's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Peakstone Realty Trust (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) and our report dated February 18, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

**Basis for Opinion**

The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

**(Dollars in thousands unless otherwise noted and excluding per share amounts)**

**1.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***Organization***

Peakstone Realty Trust (NYSE: PKST) is an industrial real estate investment trust ("REIT"), with a strategic focus on growth in the industrial outdoor storage ("IOS") sector. The Company's fiscal year-end is December 31.

PKST OP, L.P., our operating partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), owns, directly and indirectly all of the Company's assets. As of December 31, 2025, the Company owned, directly and indirectly through a wholly-owned subsidiary, approximately 93.2% of the outstanding common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership ("OP Units").

As of December 31, 2025, our portfolio consisted of 76 industrial properties within one reportable segment (the "Industrial" segment). The portfolio included 60 IOS properties and 16 Traditional Industrial properties. IOS properties have a low building-to-land ratio, or low coverage, maximizing yard space for the display, movement and storage of materials and equipment. "Traditional Industrial" properties include distribution, warehouse, and light manufacturing facilities. Of the 76 properties in our portfolio, 72 were operating properties and four were designated for redevelopment or repositioning.

During 2025, the Company completed its strategic transformation to an industrial-only REIT through the disposition of all properties in its Office segment. As a result, the Office segment was eliminated as of December 31, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the Company's plan to dispose of its Office segment properties represented a strategic shift in its business that met the criteria for classification as discontinued operations. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2025, 27 Office segment properties were classified as discontinued operations (the "Office Discontinued Operations Properties"). The Company presented the results of the Office segment through the year ended December 31, 2025, with results attributable to the Office Discontinued Operations Properties presented separately as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

**2. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies***

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared by management on the accrual basis of accounting and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"), and in conjunction with rules and regulations of the SEC. The consolidated financial statements include accounts and related adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include all accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, and its consolidated subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions are shown on the consolidated statements if and to the extent required pursuant to GAAP. Each property-owning entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary which is a special purpose entity ("SPE").

***Principles of Consolidation***

The Company's financial statements, and the financial statements of the Operating Partnership, including its wholly-owned subsidiaries, are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The portion of these entities not wholly-owned by the Company is presented as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

***Consolidation Considerations***

The Company consolidates variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary. VIEs are entities in which the equity investors do not have sufficient equity at risk to finance their endeavors without additional financial support or that the holders of the equity investment at risk do not have substantive participating rights. The primary beneficiary is defined by the entity having both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

The Company has determined that the Operating Partnership is a VIE because the holders of limited partnership interests do not have substantive kick-out rights or participation rights. Furthermore, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the Operating Partnership because the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits from the

**(Dollars in thousands unless otherwise noted and excluding per share amounts)**

Operating Partnership and the exclusive power to direct the activities of the Operating Partnership. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the assets and liabilities of the Company and the Operating Partnership are substantially the same, as the Company does not have any significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership.

***Segment Information***

*Industrial Segment*

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has one reportable Industrial segment, which includes 76 industrial properties comprised of 60 IOS properties and 16 Traditional Industrial properties. Of the 76 properties in the Company's portfolio, 72 were operating properties, and four were designated for redevelopment or repositioning.

*Office Segment Disposal*

As of December 31, 2025, the Company completed the disposition of all Office segment properties, including the Office Discontinued Operations Properties. Therefore, as of December 31, 2025, the Office segment was eliminated. The Company presented the results of the Office segment through the year ended December 31, 2025, reflecting the Company's ownership of the Office segment properties during that period. The results of the Office Discontinued Operations Properties have been separately reported within "*Net income from discontinued operations*" for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 on the consolidated statement of operations.

*Other Segment Disposal*

Prior to December 31, 2024, the Company presented a third reportable segment, the "Other" segment, which consisted of vacant and non-core properties, together with other properties in the same cross-collateralized loan pools. On December 31, 2024, the Company sold the final property in its Other segment, and as a result, the Other segment was eliminated. The Company presented the results of the Other segment through the year ended December 31, 2024.

***Assets Held for Sale***

The Company generally classifies real estate assets that are subject to operating leases as held for sale when it believes it is probable that the disposition will occur within one year. When the Company classifies an asset as held for sale, it compares the asset's fair value less estimated cost to sell to its carrying value, and if the fair value less estimated cost to sell is less than the property's carrying value, the Company reduces the carrying value to the fair value less estimated cost to sell. The Company will continue to review the property for subsequent changes in the fair value, and may recognize an additional impairment charge, if warranted. Assets classified as held for sale are further evaluated for classification as discontinued operations (as described under *Discontinued Operations* below).

***Discontinued Operations***

A component or group of components is classified as discontinued operations, (i) when it has been disposed of or meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale and (ii) the disposal or intended disposal represents a strategic shift that has or is expected to have, a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. A discontinued operation includes components that comprise operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished from the Company's continuing operations.

As described in Note 1, *Organization*, the Company's disposal of its Office segment properties represented a strategic shift in the Company's business that met the criteria for classification as discontinued operations.

Accordingly, during the third quarter of 2025, the Company began to separately present the results of the Office Discontinued Operations Properties in its consolidated financial statements and notes for all periods presented, and reclassified prior-period amounts to conform to this presentation. All previously disposed Office segment properties not included within Office Discontinued Operations Properties are included within continuing operations for all periods presented.

As discussed in Note 3, *Real Estate*, the Company completed the sale of all remaining 27 Office Discontinued Operations Properties as of December 31, 2025, through individual property sales or, in certain cases, sales of combined properties. All such dispositions were part of a single plan that was established to exit the Office segment.

(3)Refer to Note 5, *Debt* for further details.

***Cash and Cash Equivalents***

The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. Our cash and cash equivalents are held in the custody of several financial institutions, and these balances, at times, exceed federally insurable limits. We seek to mitigate this risk by depositing funds only with major financial institutions.

***Restricted Cash***

Restricted cash is presented on the consolidated balance sheet and consists primarily of reserves that the Company funded as required by the applicable governing documents with certain lenders in conjunction with debt financing or transactions. The table below summarizes the Company's restricted cash:

| Total | $7767 | $7696 |

---

***Acquisitions of Real Estate***

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we acquired nine IOS properties which were accounted for as asset acquisitions. For asset acquisitions, the Company allocates the acquisition cost, which assigns both cash and non-cash consideration paid to the seller and associated acquisition transaction costs, to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed (including tangible assets and intangible assets and liabilities), according to their respective relative fair values.

*Tangible Assets Acquired*

The tangible assets consist of land, buildings, and site improvements. Land is typically valued utilizing the sales comparison (or market) approach. Buildings are valued, as if vacant, using the cost and/or income approach. Site improvements are valued using the cost approach.

Under the cost approach, the fair value of real estate is based on estimated costs to construct a vacant building or site improvement, as applicable, with similar characteristics.

Under the income approach, we use the discounted cash flow method, which includes Level 3 unobservable inputs. For the discounted cash flow method, the fair value of real estate is determined (i) by applying a discounted cash flow analysis to the estimated net operating income for each property in the portfolio during the remaining anticipated lease term and over any additional hypothetical lease terms assumed and (ii) by the estimated residual value, which is based on a hypothetical sale of the property upon expiration of a lease factoring in the re-tenanting of such property at estimated market rental rates, and applying a selected capitalization rate. The respective Level 3 inputs include discount rates, capitalization rates, market rental rates and comparable sales data, including land sales for similar properties. The estimated future cash flows account for various factors, including historical performance, anticipated trends, and prevailing market and economic conditions.

*Intangible Assets and Liabilities Acquired*

The intangible assets and liabilities include the above- and below-market value of leases and the in-place leases, which include the value of tenant relationships. In assessing the fair value of intangible lease assets or liabilities, the Company, similarly, considers Level 3 inputs. Acquired above- and below-market leases are valued based on the present value of the difference between prevailing market rental rates and the in-place rental rates measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

**(Dollars in thousands unless otherwise noted and excluding per share amounts)**

below-market leases determined to be reasonably certain of exercise, if applicable. The estimated fair value of acquired in-place at-market tenant leases is estimated based on the costs that would have been incurred to lease the property to the occupancy level at the acquisition date. This includes leasing commissions, legal and other costs, along with the estimated time necessary to lease the property to its occupancy level at the time of acquisition.

If a lease is terminated, we charge the unamortized portion of above- and below-market lease values to rental income and in-place lease values to amortization expense. If a lease is amended, we will determine whether the economics of the amended lease continue to support the existence of the above- or below-market lease intangibles. If circumstances indicate that the assumed exercise of renewal options has changed, we will reassess the expected lease term and adjust the remaining amortization period prospectively, accelerating or extending the recognition of the related intangibles as appropriate.

***Depreciation and Amortization***

The purchase price of real estate acquired and costs related to development, construction, and property improvements are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance costs include all costs that do not extend the useful life of the real estate asset and are expensed as incurred. The Company considers the period of future benefit of an asset to determine the appropriate useful life. The Company anticipates the estimated useful lives of its assets by class to be generally as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Buildings | 25-40 years |
| Building Improvements | 5-20 years |
| Land Improvements | 15-25 years |
| Tenant Improvements | Shorter of (i) estimated useful life and (ii) remaining contractual lease term |
| Above- and Below-market Lease Value and the In-place Leases | Remaining contractual lease term with consideration as to below-market extension options for below-market leases |

---

***Impairment of Real Estate and Related Intangible Assets and Liabilities***

In accordance with the provisions of the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of ASC 360, where indicators of impairment exist, the Company evaluates the recoverability of its real estate assets by comparing the carrying amounts of the assets to the estimated undiscounted cash flows. Recoverability of real estate assets requires estimates of future market and economic conditions, including assumptions related to estimated selling prices, anticipated hold periods, potential vacancies, capitalization rates, market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, and property operating expenses.

When the carrying amounts of the real estate assets are not recoverable based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows, the Company calculates an impairment charge in the amount the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the real estate asset as of the measurement date. Fair value is determined through certain valuation techniques involving (i) discounted cash flow models applying significant assumptions related to market rent, terminal capitalization rates, and discount rates or (ii) estimated selling prices based on quoted market values and comparable property sales.

In accordance with the provisions of the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of ASC 360, the Company assesses the carrying values of our real estate assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be fully recoverable. Refer to Note 3. *Real Estate*, for further details.

**(Dollars in thousands unless otherwise noted and excluding per share amounts)**

***Impairment of Goodwill***

The Company's goodwill has an indeterminate life and is not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually for each reporting unit, as applicable, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill is more likely than not impaired. The Company performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether a potential impairment of goodwill exists prior to quantitatively estimating the fair value of each relevant reporting unit. If an impairment exists, the Company recognizes an impairment of goodwill based on the excess of the reporting unit's carrying value compared to its fair value, up to the amount of goodwill for that reporting unit. Under the quantitative assessment, the Company focuses on the fair value of real estate assets and mortgage loans, as those comprise the significant components of fair value within each reporting unit. The analysis involves estimates around significant assumptions such as market rent, discount rates, terminal capitalization rates, and borrowing rates.

***Revenue Recognition***

We lease industrial properties to tenants primarily under non-cancelable operating leases that generally contain provisions for minimum base rents plus reimbursement for certain operating expenses.

Total minimum annual lease payments are recognized in rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease, regardless of when payments are contractually due, when collectability is probable. Rental revenue recognition commences when the tenant takes possession or controls the physical use of the leased space.

Our lease agreements with tenants generally contain provisions that require tenants to reimburse us for certain operating expenses. Estimated reimbursements from tenants for these property expenses, which include real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses, are recognized as revenues in the period that the expenses are incurred. As the timing and pattern of revenue recognition for base rent and tenant reimbursements is the same, and as the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if it were accounted for separately, base rents and tenant reimbursements are treated as a combined lease component and presented as a single line item "Rental income" in our consolidated statements of operations.

We record revenues and expenses on a gross basis for lessor costs (which include real estate taxes) when these costs are reimbursed to us by our tenants. Conversely, we record revenues and expenses on a net basis for lessor costs when they are paid by our tenants directly to the applicable providers (e.g. taxing authorities) on our behalf.

Lease termination fees, which are included in rental income, are recognized when the related leases are terminated and we have no continuing obligation to provide services to such former tenants. If the lessee continues to occupy the leased space for a period of time after the lease termination is agreed upon, the termination fee is accounted for as a lease modification based on the modified lease term.

***Valuation of Operating Lease Receivables***

On a quarterly basis, we perform an assessment of the collectability of operating lease receivables on a tenant-by-tenant basis, which includes reviewing the age and nature of our receivables, the payment history and financial condition of the tenant, our assessment of the tenant's ability to meet its lease obligations and the status of negotiations of any disputes with the tenant. Any changes in the collectability assessment for an operating lease is recognized as an adjustment, which can be a reduction or increase, to rental income in the consolidated statements of operations.

***Leases as Lessee***

As of December 31, 2025, the Company is the lessee under two office leases classified as operating leases. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments under the lease. The Company makes significant assumptions and judgments when determining the discount rate for the lease to calculate the present value of the lease payments. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company estimates the incremental borrowing rate ("IBR") that it would need to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment, over a similar lease term. The Company utilizes a market-based approach to estimate the IBR for each individual lease. The base IBR is estimated utilizing observable mortgage rates, which are then adjusted to account for considerations related to the Company's credit rating and the lease term to select an incremental borrowing rate for each lease. The lease liabilities and ROU assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

***Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities***

The Company measures derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, at fair value and records them as an asset or liability, depending on the Company's rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portions of the derivative are reported in other comprehensive income and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging and ineffective portions of hedges are recognized in earnings in the affected period. See Note 6, *Interest Rate Contracts*, for more detail.

***Income Taxes***

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code ("Code"). To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements. The Company intends to adhere to these requirements and maintain its REIT status for the current year and subsequent years. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income taxes on taxable income that is distributed to shareholders. However, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income, if any. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will then be subject to federal income taxes on the taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect net income and net cash available to pay dividends to shareholders. As of December 31, 2025, the Company believes it has satisfied the REIT requirements.

Pursuant to the Code, the Company has elected to treat its corporate subsidiary as a taxable REIT subsidiary (a "TRS"). In general, the TRS may perform non-customary services for the Company's tenants and may engage in any real estate or non-real estate-related business. The TRS will be subject to corporate federal and state income tax.

***Share-Based Compensation***

We have granted restricted share units and restricted shares (together, "Restricted Shares") to certain employees and non-employee trustees. Grants were awarded in the name of the recipient subject to certain restrictions of transferability and a risk of forfeiture. Stock-based compensation expense for all equity-classified stock-based compensation awards is based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with current accounting guidance for share-based payments, which includes awards granted to certain nonemployees. We recognize these compensation costs for only those shares expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service or performance period of the award, as applicable. We include share-based compensation within "Additional paid-in capital" in the consolidated statements of equity and "General and administrative expenses" in the consolidated statements of operations.

***Earnings Per Share***

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares plus the potential effect of any dilutive securities (e.g. unvested time-based restricted share units and unvested time-based restricted shares (together, "Unvested Restricted Shares"), OP Units, etc.), using the more dilutive of either the two-class method or the treasury stock method.

For all periods presented, (a) OP Units were excluded from the dilutive earnings per share computation because they were not dilutive, and (b) using the treasury stock method, Unvested Restricted Shares were excluded from dilutive earnings per share because the inclusion would have been anti-dilutive or insignificant to the potential dilutive effect of the computation.

(1)Unvested Restricted Shares that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to either the two-class method or treasury stock method, as applicable.

***Reclassifications***

Certain amounts in the prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation, solely related to classification of the Office Discontinued Operations Properties.

***Use of Estimates***

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

***Unaudited Data***

Any references to the number of buildings, square footage, acreage, number of leases, occupancy, and any amounts derived from these values in the notes to the consolidated financial statements are unaudited and outside the scope of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm's audit of its consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB").

***Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements***

On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, which requires public business entities to provide disaggregated disclosures of certain expense categories that are included in the income statement. The guidance does not change the presentation of expenses on the face of the income statement but mandates additional tabular disclosures for line items in continuing operations. Expenses that are already disclosed under existing U.S. GAAP should be incorporated into these disaggregated disclosures, while any remaining amounts should be described qualitatively. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The disclosures will be required on both an annual and interim basis. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting ASU 2024-03 on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

***Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives***

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both business operations and economic conditions. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into interest rate hedging instruments (collectively, "Interest Rate Swaps") to provide greater predictability in interest expense by protecting against potential increases in floating interest rates and allow for more precise budgeting, financial planning and forecasting. Interest Rate Swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

***Derivative Instruments***

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has Interest Rate Swaps in place to hedge the variable cash flows associated with its variable-rate debt (which consists of the KeyBank Loans as of both periods). The Interest Rate Swaps are

cross-defaulted to other indebtedness of the Operating Partnership, if that indebtedness exceeds certain thresholds. The change in the fair value of the Interest Rate Swaps designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") and is subsequently reclassified into earnings through interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company's variable-rate debt.

The following table sets forth a summary of the Interest Rate Swaps at December 31, 2025 and 2024:

(1)The Company records all derivative instruments on a gross basis in the consolidated balance sheets, and accordingly there are no offsetting amounts that net assets against liabilities. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, derivatives in an asset or liability position are included in the line item "Interest rate swap asset" or "Interest rate swap liability", respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value.

(2)In connection with the Eighth Amendment, the Operating Partnership entered into certain interest rate swaps, in the form of forward-starting, floating to fixed SOFR interest rate swaps. These swaps become effective July 1, 2025, and mature July 1, 2029 and have the effect of converting SOFR to a weighted average fixed rate of 3.58%.

(3)In December 2025, the Company terminated three interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $250.0 million and partially terminated an additional interest rate swap agreement for $15.0 million of notional amounts. The interest rate swaps were designated as and qualified as cash flow hedges and were terminated in connection with the repayment of the Company's unsecured debt. Upon termination, approximately $2.2 million of losses previously recorded in AOCI were reclassified into earnings and recognized within "Loss on extinguishment of debt" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. In connection with the terminations, the Company entered into the Tenth Amendment which removed the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement's requirement to maintain a minimum amount of interest rate swaps.

The following table sets forth the impact of the Interest Rate Swaps on the consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** |

| **Interest Rate Swaps in Cash Flow Hedging Relationship:** |  |  |  |
| Amount of gain (loss) recognized in AOCI on derivatives | $9673 | $(14305) | $(9295) |
| Amount reclassified from AOCI into earnings | $8619 | $25146 | $23630 |
| Total "Interest expense" reported on the consolidated statements of operations | $56565 | $55978 | $59371 |

---

During the twelve months subsequent to December 31, 2025, the Company estimates that an additional $0.6 million of its income will be recognized from AOCI into earnings.

**8.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Fair Value Measurements***

The Company is required to disclose fair value information about all financial instruments, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value, whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company measures and discloses the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities utilizing a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity and the reporting entity's own assumptions about market participant assumptions. This hierarchy consists of three broad levels, as follows: (i) quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, (ii) "significant other observable inputs," and (iii) "significant unobservable inputs." "Significant other observable inputs" can include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. "Significant unobservable inputs" are typically based on an entity's own assumptions, since there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances in which the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. There were no transfers between the levels in the fair value hierarchy during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

***Recurring Measurements***

The following table sets forth the assets and liabilities that the Company measures at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Assets/(Liabilities)** | **Total Fair Value** | **Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets and Liabilities** | **Significant Other Observable Inputs** | **Significant Unobservable Inputs** |

| Number of Properties | 4 | 1 | 15 |
| Estimated selling price per square foot <sup>(2)</sup> | $44 - $234 | $150 | $74 - $209 |
| **Discounted Cash Flows (Level 3 Inputs)** |  |  |  |
| Number of Properties |  |  | 10 |
| Market rent per square foot | N/A | N/A | $15 - $41 |
| Terminal capitalization rates | N/A | N/A | 8.25% - 10.50% |
| Discount rates | N/A | N/A | 10.00% - 12.50% |

---

(1)Includes six Office Discontinued Operations Properties that are presented in both Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. These properties were impaired based on i) discounted cash flows as of June 30, 2025 and ii) further impaired based on estimated selling prices less closing costs (in accordance with held for sale guidance) as of September 30, 2025.

(2)Estimated selling prices per square foot were determined based on quoted market values or comparable property sales.

***Nonrecurring Measurement - Goodwill Impairment***

As of October 1, 2025, the Company performed its annual impairment evaluation of goodwill. There was no impairment of goodwill recorded for the year ended December 31, 2025.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company's remaining goodwill balance was $68.4 million, all of which relates to the Industrial segment. Refer to Note 14, *Segment Reporting*, for allocation of goodwill presented for each segment.

***Financial Instruments at Fair Value***

Financial instruments as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 consisted of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, and consolidated debt, as defined in Note 5, *Debt.* With the exception of the secured debt in the table below, the amounts of the financial instruments presented in the consolidated financial statements substantially approximate their fair value as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The fair value of the secured debt in the table below is estimated by discounting each loan's principal balance over the remaining term of the loan using current borrowing rates available to the Company for debt instruments with similar terms and maturities. The Company determined that the secured debt valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, as the fair value is based on current pricing for debt with similar terms as the in-place debt.

***Common Equity***

On April 13, 2023, the Company listed its common shares on the New York Stock Exchange (the "Listing").

As of December 31, 2025, there were 37,176,167 common shares outstanding.

***ATM Program***

In August 2023, the Company entered into an at-the-market equity offering (the "ATM") pursuant to which the Company may sell common shares up to an aggregate purchase price of $200.0 million. The Company may sell such shares in amounts and at times to be determined by the Company from time to time, but the Company has no obligation to sell any of such shares. Actual sales, if any, will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including, among other things, market conditions, the trading price of the Company's common shares, and the Company's determinations of its capital needs and the appropriate sources of funding. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has not sold any shares under the ATM.

***Issuance of Restricted Shares - Long-Term Incentive Plan***

On April 5, 2023, the Compensation Committee of the Board approved the Peakstone Realty Trust Second Amended and Restated Employee and Trustee Long-Term Incentive Plan (as amended, the "Plan") which provides for the grant of share-based awards to the Company's non-employee trustees, executive officers and other full-time employees of the Company or any affiliate of the Company, and certain persons who perform bona fide consulting or advisory services for the Company or any affiliate of the Company.

Awards granted under the Plan may consist of restricted share units and restricted shares (together, "Restricted Shares"), share options, share appreciation rights, distribution equivalent rights, profit interests in the Operating Partnership, and other equity-based awards.

The share-based awards are measured at fair value at issuance and recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period. The maximum number of shares authorized under the Plan is 4,063,478 shares. As of December 31, 2025, 2,418,002 common shares remained for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the Plan.

As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there was $5.7 million and $6.3 million respectively, of unrecognized compensation expense remaining, which vests between approximately i) 1 month and 2.0 years and ii) 2 months and 2.1 years, respectively.

Total compensation expense related to Restricted Shares for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately $6.4 million and $7.9 million, respectively.

Subsequent to December 31, 2025, in January 2026, the Company granted 443,484 shares under the Plan as part of its annual long-term incentive program, with a grant date fair value of approximately $6.3 million. As of January 31, 2026, total unvested awards were 930,527 shares.

**10.***&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;****Noncontrolling Interests***

Noncontrolling interests are OP Units owned by previously affiliated and unaffiliated third parties (the "limited partners").

As of December 31, 2025, the limited partners of the Operating Partnership owned approximately 2.73 million OP Units consisting of approximately (i) 2.71 million OP Units, which were issued to previously affiliated parties and unaffiliated third parties in exchange for the contribution of certain properties to the Company and in connection with the Self-Administration Transaction (as defined in below), and (ii) 0.02 million OP Units, which were issued to unaffiliated third parties unrelated to property contributions.

As of December 31, 2025, assuming all OP Units held by the limited partners were converted to common shares, noncontrolling interests would constitute approximately 6.8% of total shares outstanding and 7.4% of weighted-average shares outstanding.

Subject to certain restrictions, all limited partners of the Operating Partnership have the right (the "Exchange Right") to redeem their OP Units, pursuant and subject to the limited partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership and applicable contribution agreement, at an exchange price equal to the value of an equivalent number of common shares ("Share Value"). The Operating Partnership is obligated to satisfy the Exchange Right for cash equal to the Share Value unless the Company, as the general partner of the Operating Partnership, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects to directly (i) purchase the OP Units for cash equal to the Share Value or (ii) purchase the limited partner's OP Units by issuing common shares of the Company for the OP Units, subject to certain transfer and ownership limitations included in the Company's charter and the limited partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership.

The following summarizes the activity for noncontrolling interests recorded as equity for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

***Redemption of OP Units from Self-Administration Transaction***

In connection with the transaction that resulted in the internalization of management of Griffin Capital Essential Asset REIT, Inc. (our "Predecessor") in December 2018 (the "Self-Administration Transaction"), Griffin Capital, LLC ("GC LLC"), an entity controlled by our former Executive Chairman, Kevin A. Shields, and affiliated with Griffin Capital Company, LLC ("GCC"), the sponsor of our Predecessor, received OP units (approximately 2.7 million taking into effect the 9 to 1 reverse split) as consideration in exchange for the sale to our Predecessor of the advisory, asset management and property management business of Griffin Capital Real Estate Company, LLC (n/k/a PKST Management Company, LLC, the "Management Company"). GC LLC assigned approximately 50% of the OP Units received in connection with the Self-Administration Transaction to then participants in GC LLC's long-term incentive plan. Mr. Shields is the plan administrator of such long-term incentive plan.

As previously disclosed, certain of our current and former employees and executive officers, including Michael Escalante, our Chief Executive Officer, and Javier Bitar, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, were employed by affiliates of GC LLC prior to the Self-Administration Transaction and are therefore participants in a GC LLC's long term incentive plan that made grants to such participants in connection with services rendered prior to the Self-Administration Transaction. Participants in GC LLC's long-term incentive plan, including Messrs. Escalante and Bitar, are entitled to receive distributions from the long-term incentive plan in the form of either cash, common shares, or other property, or a combination thereof, as elected by the plan administrator.

The Listing required that certain awards under GC LLC's long-term incentive plan be settled during the fourth quarter 2023 and in four annual installments thereafter, unless waived or modified.

On December 15, 2023, GC LLC settled the first of such installments by electing to redeem 209,954 OP Units, and we satisfied such redemption request with our common shares. On December 23, 2024, GC LLC settled the second installment by electing to redeem 213,043 OP Units, and we satisfied such redemption request with our common shares. On December 15, 2025, GC LLC settled the third installment by electing to redeem 212,613 OP Units, and we satisfied such redemption request with our common shares.

If GC LLC elects to redeem additional OP Units for further installments, the Company intends to satisfy such redemption request with our common shares. Any future redemption of OP Units in exchange for common shares would have no economically dilutive effect on our common shareholders.

GCC. GCC is the sublessor under the El Segundo Sublease. GCC is controlled by, and GCPI is affiliated with the Company's former Executive Chairman, who beneficially owns more than 5% of our common shares.

As of December 31, 2025, the right-of-use lease asset and liability related to the El Segundo Sublease was approximately $0.2 million, which is included in Right-of-use lease assets and Right-of-use lease liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company entered into a 10-year lease for its future corporate headquarters in El Segundo, CA. The new lease is with an unrelated party and is expected to commence in 2026, at which time right-of-use assets and lease liabilities will be recognized.

**12.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***Leases***

***Lessor***

The Company, as Lessor, leases industrial properties to tenants primarily under non-cancelable operating leases that generally contain provisions for minimum base rents plus reimbursement for certain operating expenses including, without limitation, real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance ("Recoverable Operating Expenses").

Total minimum annual lease payments are recognized in rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease. On a quarterly basis, we perform an assessment of the collectability of operating lease receivables on a tenant-by-tenant basis, which includes reviewing the age and nature of our receivables, the payment history and financial condition of the tenant, our assessment of the tenant's ability to meet its lease obligations and the status of negotiations of any disputes with the tenant. Any changes in the collectability assessment for an operating lease is recognized as an adjustment, which can be a reduction or increase, to rental income in the consolidated statements of operations.

Estimated reimbursements from tenants for Recoverable Operating Expenses are recognized in rental income in the period that the expenses are incurred.

For its continuing operations properties, the Company recognized $92.7 million, $100.1 million and $121.4 million of lease income related to operating lease payments for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 respectively.

For its Office Discontinued Operations Properties, the Company recognized $84.0 million, $99.8 million, and $98.1 million of lease income related to operating lease payments for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 respectively. These amounts are included within income from discontinued operations within the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company's current third-party tenant leases have expirations ranging from 2026 to 2038. The following table (i) sets forth undiscounted cash flows for future contractual base rents to be received under operating leases as of December 31, 2025 and (ii) excludes estimated reimbursements of Recoverable Operating Expenses:

***Lessee - Corporate Office Leases***

As of December 31, 2025, the Operating Partnership or a wholly-owned subsidiary is the tenant (lessee) under the following two corporate office space leases, each of which is classified as a non-cancelable operating lease: (i) the El Segundo

**(Dollars in thousands unless otherwise noted and excluding per share amounts)**

Sublease described in Note 11, *Related Party Transactions ,* above, and (ii) a lease for its office space in Chicago, Illinois ("Chicago Office Lease").

For corporate office leases in which the Company is a lessee, the Company incurred costs of approximately $0.7 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which are included in "Corporate operating expenses to related parties" and "General and administrative expenses" as applicable, in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Total cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities for the corporate office leases was $0.7 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The following table sets forth the weighted-average for the lease term and the discount rate for the office leases in which the Company is a lessee as of December 31, 2025:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | **As of December 31, 2025** |
| **Lease Term and Discount Rate** | **Operating - Office Leases** |
| Weighted-average remaining lease term in years | 4.6 |
| Weighted-average discount rate <sup>(1)</sup> | 7.68% |

---

(1)Because the rate implicit in each of the Company's leases was not readily determinable, the Company used an incremental borrowing rate. In determining the Company's incremental borrowing rate at the commencement of each lease, the Company considered rates on secured borrowings, observable risk-free interest rates and credit spreads correlating to the Company's creditworthiness, the impact of collateralization and the term of each of the Company's lease agreements.

***Lessee - Maturities of Lease Liabilities***

The maturities of lease liabilities for the Company's operating leases as of December 31, 2025 were as follows:

---

| | |

| Less imputed interest | (257) |
| Total lease liabilities | $1334 |

**13. *&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Commitments and Contingencies***

***Capital Expenditure Projects, Leasing, and Tenant Improvement Commitments***

As of December 31, 2025 the Company had an aggregate remaining contractual commitment for capital expenditure projects, leasing commissions and tenant improvements of approximately $2.2 million.

***Corporate Office Lease***

As of December 31, 2025, the Company entered into a 10-year lease for its future corporate headquarters in El Segundo, CA, which is expected to commence in 2026 (refer to Note 12, *Leases*, for further details). Aggregate future lease payments under this 10-year lease agreement are expected to approximate $6.6 million.

***Retention Arrangements***

In December 2025, the Board adopted the Peakstone Realty Trust Retention Bonus Plan (the "Retention Plan"), pursuant to which approximately 37 current Company employees are eligible to receive cash retention bonuses. The retention bonuses generally become payable upon the satisfaction of specified conditions, subject to the applicable employee's continuous

employment. The total potential aggregate cost of the retention bonuses under the Retention Plan is currently estimated to be up to approximately $2.5 million.

***Litigation***

From time to time, the Company may become subject to legal and regulatory proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not a party to, nor is the Company aware of any material pending legal proceedings nor is property of the Company subject to any material pending legal proceedings.

***Environmental Matters***

In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate, the Company may potentially be liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters in the ordinary course of business. As of December 31, 2025, the Company is not aware of any environmental condition that it believes will have a material adverse effect on the results of operations.

**14*.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Segment Reporting***

***Segment Profit/(Loss) Measures***

Michael Escalante, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, is identified as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"). The CODM evaluates the Company's portfolio and assesses the ongoing operations and performance of its properties within each reportable segment. The CODM evaluates the performance of each segment based on segment net operating income ("NOI"), which is calculated as net income or loss excluding (to the extent applicable during the periods presented) general and administrative expenses, corporate operating expenses to related parties, impairment of real estate, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income, net, gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt, gains or losses on sales of real estate, impairment of goodwill, investment income or loss, transaction expense and net income or loss from discontinued operations and equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures. This measure is used by the CODM to make decisions about resource allocation and evaluate the financial performance of each segment. Segment NOI is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities, is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies calculate segment profit measures in the same manner. The Company considers segment NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income or loss because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core operations of our properties.

*Industrial Segment*

As of December 31, 2025, the Company's portfolio consisted of 76 properties within one reportable Industrial segment. The portfolio included 60 IOS properties and 16 Traditional Industrial properties. Of the 76 properties in the Company's portfolio, 72 were operating properties and four were designated for redevelopment or repositioning.

*Office Segment Disposal in 2025*

As of December 31, 2025, the Company completed the disposition of all Office segment properties, including the Office Discontinued Operations Properties. Therefore, as of December 31, 2025, the Office segment was eliminated. The Company presented the results of the Office segment through the year ended December 31, 2025, reflecting the Company's ownership of the Office segment properties during that period. The results of the Office Discontinued Operations Properties have been separately reported within "*Net income from discontinued operations*" for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 on the consolidated statement of operations. As such, the Office Discontinued Operations Properties are excluded from NOI metrics (refer to sections below).

*Other Segment Disposal in 2024*

Prior to December 31, 2024, the Company presented a third reportable segment, the "Other" segment, which consisted of vacant and non-core properties, together with other properties in the same cross-collateralized loan pools. On December 31, 2024, the Company sold the final property in its Other segment, and as a result, the Other segment was eliminated. The Company presented the results of the Other segment through the year ended December 31, 2024.

(1)The significant expense categories and amounts align with the segment-level information that is regularly provided to the CODM.

(2)Asset value information by segment are not reported because the CODM does not use these measures to assess performance or make decisions to allocate resources; therefore, depreciation and amortization expense and asset impairment are not allocated among segments. Refer to *Segment Reporting* sections below, for allocation of real estate assets and goodwill presented for each segment.

(3)General and administrative expenses are not reported by segment because the CODM evaluates these expenses at the corporate level and does not use this measure on a segment-by-segment basis for performance assessment or resource allocation decisions; therefore, general and administrative expenses are not allocated among segments.

***Dividends***

Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of dividends paid to shareholders, may differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes due to the differences for federal income tax purposes in the treatment of loss on debt, revenue recognition and compensation expense and in the basis of depreciable assets and estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation expense.

The following unaudited table summarizes the federal income tax treatment for all distributions declared for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 reported for federal tax purposes and serves as a designation of capital gain distributions, if applicable, pursuant to Code Section 857(b)(3)(C) and Treasury Regulation §1.857-6(e).

## Exhibit 14.1

![](exhibit141-pkstxcodexofx001.jpg)

1 PEAKSTONE REALTY TRUST Code of Business Conduct and Ethics A. Introduction It is the general policy of Peakstone Realty Trust (the "Company") to conduct its business activities and transactions with the highest level of integrity and ethical standards and in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. Obeying the law both in letter and in spirit is the foundation on which the Company's ethical standards are built. In carrying out this policy, the Company has adopted the following Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the "Code"). This Code is intended to cover the Company's and its subsidiaries' trustees, officers and employees (collectively, "Covered Persons"). Each Covered Person is expected (i) to read and understand this Code and its application to the performance of his or her business responsibilities and (ii) to conduct himself or herself in accordance with this Code and to seek to avoid even the appearance of wrongdoing or improper behavior. Those who violate the standards in this Code will be subject to disciplinary action, which may include suspension, termination and/or the reporting of violative conduct to appropriate regulatory and criminal authorities. If a law conflicts with a policy in this Code, a Covered Person must comply with the law. If a Covered Person has any questions about these conflicts or this Code, he or she should consult with the General Counsel. Other policies that govern the conduct of Covered Persons may be established by the Company from time to time that supplement and are in addition to this Code. Members of the Board of Trustees of the Company (the "Board") also should refer to the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines for additional policies that specifically govern the conduct of Board members. After carefully reviewing this Code, you must sign the acknowledgment attached as Exhibit A hereto, indicating that you have received, read, understand and agree to comply with this Code. The acknowledgment must be returned either electronically in a manner provided for by the Company or to the Company's General Counsel or his or her designee within ten (10) business days of your receipt of this Code and on an annual basis as may be required by the Company. B. Honest and Ethical Conduct Each Covered Person must always conduct himself or herself in an honest and ethical manner. Each Covered Person must act with high standards of personal and professional integrity and not tolerate others who attempt to deceive or evade responsibility for their actions. In addition, all Covered Persons must act with integrity in discussions with, or requests for information from, the Board, regulatory agency officials and government officials, as well as in dealings with business partners and shareholders. EXHIBIT 14.1

------

![](exhibit141-pkstxcodexofx002.jpg)

2 C. Fair Dealing We seek to outperform our competition fairly and honestly. We seek competitive advantages through superior performance, not through unethical or illegal business practices. Each Covered Person should endeavor to respect the rights of, and to deal fairly with, the Company's tenants, purchasers and sellers of assets, and other customers, suppliers or joint venture partners, competitors, employees and other persons with whom the Company transacts business. No Covered Person should take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other unfair dealing practice. D. Compliance with Applicable Governmental Laws, Rules and Regulations Obeying the law both in letter and in spirit is the foundation on which the Company's ethical standards are built. All Covered Persons must respect and obey the laws, rules and regulations (including insider trading laws) of the jurisdictions in which we operate and the rules and regulations applicable to the Company's business, including those of the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Although not all Covered Persons are expected to know the details of the laws, rules and regulations to which the Company is subject, it is important to understand enough to determine when it is necessary or appropriate to seek advice from supervisors, managers or other persons, including the General Counsel, who can provide guidance on such matters. Disregard of the law will not be tolerated. Violation of any applicable laws, rules and regulations may subject an individual, as well as the Company, to civil or criminal penalties. Covered Persons should be aware that conduct and records, including e-mails, are subject to internal and external audits and to discovery by third parties in the event of a government investigation or civil litigation. Consequently, it is in everyone's best interest to understand and comply with the laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Company. E. Conflicts of Interest All Covered Persons must avoid any situation in which personal interests conflict, or have the appearance of conflicting, with those of the Company. Covered Persons may not accept any benefits from the Company that have not been duly authorized and approved pursuant to Company policy and procedures. Transactions or arrangements with trustees and officers that may involve a conflict of interest are prohibited unless they have been specifically approved in advance by the Company's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee ("Governance Committee") or the Board (not including any interested trustees) or otherwise comply with the Company's Related Party Transaction Policy (to the extent applicable). Exceptions may be made only after review and approval of specific or general categories by the General Counsel (in the case of employees, other than an officer) or the Company's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the "Governance Committee") or the full Board (in the case of officers or trustees), and in each case, not including any interested trustees. Trustees and executive officers of the Company should refer to the Company's Related Party Transaction Policy. A "conflict of interest" occurs when a person's private interest interferes in any way (or even appears to interfere) with the interests of the Company. A conflict situation can arise, for

------

![](exhibit141-pkstxcodexofx003.jpg)

3 example, when a Covered Person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work for the Company objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest also arise when a Covered Person, or any Family Member (as defined below) of such person, receives improper personal benefits because of his or her position at the Company. However, the Company recognizes that its corporate structure and business investments do not make it practicable or desirable to avoid all relationships that could give rise to conflicts of interest. Accordingly, conflicts of interest, potential conflicts of interest or relationships which are identified as giving rise to potential conflicts of interest that are approved by the General Counsel (in the case of employees, other than an officer), or at the direction of the full Board or the Governance Committee (in the case of officers or trustees) or that have been disclosed in the Company's Proxy Statement filed with the SEC are permitted. If you have any questions about a potential conflict of interest or if you become aware of an actual or potential conflict, you should discuss the matter with your supervisor or the General Counsel. Supervisors may not authorize conflict of interest matters or make determinations as to whether a problematic conflict of interest exists without first seeking the approval of the General Counsel and providing him or her with a written description of the activity. Conflict of interest situations involving trustees, executive officers and other employees who occupy supervisory positions or who have discretionary authority in dealing with any third party may include, but are not limited to, the following: • any significant ownership interest in any tenant or service provider; • any consulting or employment relationship with any tenant, service provider, supplier or competitor; • any outside business activity that detracts from an individual's ability to devote appropriate time and attention to his or her responsibilities with the Company; • the receipt of non-customary gifts or entertainment or those that are excessive in value from any company with which the Company has current or prospective business dealings; • being in the position of supervising, reviewing or having any influence on the job evaluation, pay or benefit of any Family Member; or • selling anything to the Company or buying anything from the Company. Such situations, if material, should be discussed with the General Counsel. For purposes of this Code, "Family Member" generally means a person's spouse, parents, children and siblings, whether by blood, marriage or adoption, or anyone residing in such person's home.

![](exhibit141-pkstxcodexofx004.jpg)

4 F. Corporate Opportunities Covered Persons owe a duty to the Company to advance its legitimate interests when the opportunity to do so arises. Covered Persons must offer to the Company any business opportunities related to the Company's target assets and business activities (as described in the periodic reports filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC, together with any other assets that the Board determines from time to time will be a target asset or potential investment or business of the Company). Covered Persons are prohibited from: (i) taking for themselves opportunities that are discovered using Company property, information or position, unless such opportunities are presented to the Board and the Board declines to pursue such opportunities; (ii) using Company property, information or position for improper personal gain; or (iii) competing with the Company. Any employee, other than an executive officer, may only pursue a corporate opportunity if the General Counsel waives in writing the Company's right to pursue the corporate opportunity. Corporate opportunities available to trustees and executive officers may only be waived by the Governance Committee or the Board (not including any interested trustees). If the Company waives its right to pursue a corporate opportunity, Covered Persons may pursue such opportunities in a manner consistent with this Code. G. Compliance Procedures; Reporting Violations The Company expects all Covered Persons to work to ensure prompt and consistent action against violations of this Code. This Code covers a wide range of business practices and procedures, but it does not address every applicable law or respond to every ethical question or concern that may arise. Nonetheless, the general guidelines of this Code provide each Covered Person with the Company's expectations regarding business dealings. Any Covered Person who becomes aware of any existing or potential violation of this Code or any law, rule or regulation or Company policy has an obligation to report his or her complaint or concern to his or her supervisor or to the General Counsel or if such complaint or concern is related to financial, accounting or auditing matters, to the General Counsel, the Chairperson of the Audit Committee of the Board, at the addresses below, or through the Company Ethics Hotline (the "Ethics Hotline"), which is administered and monitored by the General Counsel and Chairperson of the Audit Committee of the Board (the "Audit Committee"). If you are uncomfortable using any of these procedures for reporting violations or concerns, you may contact the Audit Committee at the address below.

5 Reporting Contacts Ethics Hotline • Phone: 1-844-208-6162 • Website: https://pkst.ethicspoint.com • Confidential and anonymous if you choose Chairman of the Audit Committee Peakstone Realty Trust 1520 E. Grand Avenue El Segundo, CA 90245 Attention: Audit Committee Chairperson Email: auditchairperson@pkst.com No Covered Person should report any existing or potential violation of this Code or any law, rule or regulation or Company policy to any person who is involved in the matter giving rise to the existing or potential violation. When using the Ethics Hotline, Covered Persons may remain anonymous. However, bear in mind that in some cases anonymity may hinder a full investigation of the issue. If you do choose to remain anonymous, please be sure to provide a sufficiently detailed description of the factual basis of the allegation so that an appropriate investigation can be performed. All concerns will be taken seriously by the Company and, when appropriate, the Company will fully investigate each allegation. This may include talking to any individuals directly involved, as well as to others who may possess information pertinent to the situation. Covered Persons are expected to cooperate fully with internal investigations of wrongdoing or misconduct, and failure to cooperate fully with any such investigations will lead to disciplinary action, up to and including termination. The Company will not tolerate any retaliation against any Covered Person for raising, in good faith, a possible violation of this Code or of a law, rule or regulation. Retaliation for reporting a federal offense is illegal under federal law. Any person who participates in retaliatory conduct will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment. Misusing this Code by knowingly or recklessly providing false information to the Company may also result in appropriate disciplinary action. Every trustee, officer, manager and supervisor who receives a complaint or a report alleging or regarding an actual or potential violation of this Code or of a law, rule or regulation has, without exception, the responsibility to immediately communicate such complaint to the General Counsel or the Chairperson of the Audit Committee (if such complaint or report is related to financial, accounting or auditing matters) or report it to the Ethics Hotline. H. Accounting Complaints The Company's policy is to comply fully with all applicable financial reporting and accounting regulations. If any Covered Person has unresolved concerns or complaints regarding questionable accounting, internal control or auditing matters concerning the Company, such person

------

![](exhibit141-pkstxcodexofx006.jpg)

6 is encouraged to submit such concerns or complaints in accordance with the Company's Complaint Procedures for Accounting and Auditing Matters. I. Public Disclosure The Company is committed to providing full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the current reports, periodic reports and other information it files with or submits to the SEC and in other public communications, such as press releases, earnings conference calls and industry conferences, made by the Company or on the Company's behalf. In meeting such standards for disclosure, the Company's officers and trustees shall always strive to comply with the Company's disclosure obligations and, as necessary, appropriately consider and balance the need or desirability for confidentiality with respect to non-public negotiations or other business developments. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting within the meaning of applicable SEC rules and regulations. The Company expects the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer to take a leadership role in implementing such controls and procedures and to position the Company to comply fully with its disclosure obligations within the timeframe required under applicable SEC rules and regulations. To fulfill such obligation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, along with the principal accounting officer or controller and persons performing similar functions, as applicable (each a "Principal Officer"), must: 1. carefully review drafts of reports and documents the Company is required to file with, or submit to, the SEC before they are filed, or submitted, and Company press releases or other public communications before they are released to the public, with particular focus on disclosures each Principal Officer does not understand or agree with and on information known to the Principal Officer that is not reflected in the report, document, press release or public communication; 2. comply with the Company's Disclosure Controls, Policies and Procedures as in effect from time to time, which have been designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its SEC filings is collected, processed, summarized and disclosed in a timely fashion and accumulated and communicated to the appropriate persons; and 3. promptly bring to the attention of the Company's Disclosure Committee (the "Disclosure Committee"), or a member thereof, any material information of which a Principal Officer may become aware that affects the disclosures made by the Company in its public filings, any material information that may assist the Disclosure Committee in fulfilling its responsibilities, matters that a Principal Officer feels could compromise the integrity of the Company's financial reports or disagreements on accounting matters. Each such person having direct or supervisory authority regarding these SEC filings or the Company's other public communications concerning its general business, results, financial

------

![](exhibit141-pkstxcodexofx007.jpg)

7 condition and prospects should, to the extent appropriate within his or her area of responsibility, consult with other Company officers and employees and take other appropriate steps regarding these disclosures with the goal of making full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure. In addition, the Company has adopted a Public Disclosure Policy which identifies the persons who are authorized to speak on behalf of the Company and how and when Company information may be disclosed. All Covered Persons are required to review and understand their duties under the Public Disclosure Policy. J. Confidential Information All Covered Persons have responsibility for maintaining the confidentiality of information entrusted to them by the Company, its tenants, purchasers and sellers of assets, and other customers, suppliers or joint venture partners, employees and other persons with whom the Company transacts business, including any information that might be useful to competitors or, or harmful to, the relevant company if disclosed. Except as legally required or expressly authorized by the Company's Chief Executive Officer or the General Counsel, every Covered Person who has access to confidential Company information must maintain its confidentiality. Nothing in this Code, including the Confidential Information restrictions above, shall be construed to prohibit Covered Persons from, in good faith, communicating with, providing information to, filing a charge with, or participating in any investigation or proceeding conducted by any federal, state or local government agency or commission responsible for enforcement of law(s) applicable to the Company, including but not limited to, the Securities and Exchange Commission, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, National Labor Relations Board, or the Department of Labor ("Government Agencies"). Covered Persons do not need to give notice to or obtain approval from the Company to communicate with any Government Agency or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including providing documents or other information. This Code does not limit a Covered Person's right to receive an award for information provided to any Government Agency. If there are any questions concerning confidential information or the treatment of what is believed to be confidential Company information, please contact the Company's General Counsel. K. Insider Trading Covered Persons who have access to confidential information are not permitted to use or share that information for share trading purposes or for any other purpose except the conduct of the Company's business. All non-public information about the Company should be considered confidential information. To use non-public information for personal financial benefit, or to "tip" others (including without limitation friends and Family Members) who might make an investment decision based on this information, is not only unethical but also illegal. For a more detailed discussion of the insider trading laws, please refer to the Company's Policy on Insider Information and Insider Trading, which can be obtained from the General Counsel. The purpose of the Policy on Insider Information and Insider Trading is to inform all Covered Persons of their legal responsibilities and clearly establish the Company's procedures for trading in the Company's securities.

![](exhibit141-pkstxcodexofx008.jpg)

8 L. Protection and Proper Use of the Company's Assets All Covered Persons should protect the Company's assets and ensure their efficient use. Theft, carelessness and waste have a direct impact on the Company's profitability. Any suspected incident of fraud or theft should be immediately reported to the Company's General Counsel or through the Ethics Hotline. All of the Company's assets should be used for legitimate business purposes and should not be used for non-company business, although incidental personal use may be permitted with the permission of your supervisor. M. Waivers of or Changes to this Code of Business Conduct and Ethics It may be appropriate for a provision of this Code to be waived in a particular circumstance. Any waiver of, or changes to, this Code that apply to executive officers or trustees of the Company may be made only by the Governance Committee or another committee of our Board comprising solely independent trustees or a majority of our independent trustees and must be promptly disclosed to shareholders as required by law or regulation of the SEC and the rules of the NYSE. In particular, to the extent that such committee of majority of independent trustees determines to grant any waiver of this Code for an executive officer or trustee, the waiver shall be disclosed to shareholders within four business days of such determination through a press release, providing website disclosure, or by filing a current report on Form 8-K with the SEC. Any other Covered Person seeking a waiver should speak to his or her supervisor, who, in turn, should obtain the approval of the General Counsel regarding such matter. N. Administration and Implementation The Governance Committee has overall responsibility for administering and interpreting this Code. The General Counsel is responsible for the implementation of this Code. O. Website Disclosure This Code, as may be amended from time to time, shall be posted on the Company's website. The Company shall state in its annual proxy statement that this Code is available on the Company's website and provide the website address. Effective as of November 25, 2025
