[removed: The risk factors describe risks that may] affect these statements but are not all-inclusive, particularly with respect to possible future events.

As of December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] our tenants operated in [removed: 11] [added: 12] states and the District of Columbia.
- increased business restrictions due to health [removed: crises][added: crises;]
- possible delay in completion of a project because of a number of factors, including COVID-19, [added: supply chain disruptions and shortages,] weather, labor disruptions, construction delays or delays in receipt of zoning or other regulatory approvals, acts of terror or other acts of violence, or acts of God (such as fires, earthquakes or floods).
As of December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] we held [removed: 15] [added: 19] predominantly retail real estate projects jointly with other persons in addition to properties owned in a “downREIT” structure.
Additionally, as of December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] we owned an interest in the [removed: joint ventures that own the] hotel [removed: components] [added: component] of [removed: Pike & Rose and] Assembly Row.
Although as of December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] we held the controlling interests in all of our existing co-investments (except the hotel [removed: investments] [added: investment] discussed above and the investment in the La Alameda shopping center acquired in 2017), we generally must obtain the consent of the co-investor or meet defined criteria to sell or to finance these properties.
If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of our insured limits occurs, we could lose all or a portion of the capital we have invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future revenue from the property, but still remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial [added: obligations related to the property.]
[removed: Such events could] [added: -] inhibit global, national and local economic activity; [removed: adversely affect trading activity]
[added: - drive inflation, adversely affect trading activity] in securities markets, which could negatively impact the trading prices of our common shares and debt securities and our ability [added: to access the securities markets as a source of liquidity;]
[added: - adversely affect our tenants’ financial condition by limiting foot traffic] and staffing at their businesses, which could affect their ability to pay rent and willingness to make new leasing commitments;
In particular, we cannot predict the [removed: duration] [added: impact] of stay-at-home and other government orders instituted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which vary by jurisdiction, or the pandemics' short and long term economic effects, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
As of December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] we had approximately [removed: $4.3] [added: $4.1] billion of debt outstanding.
Of that outstanding debt, approximately [removed: $486.0] [added: $341.6] million was secured by all or a portion of [removed: 11] [added: 7] of our real estate projects.
As of December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] approximately [removed: 90.7%] [added: 92.6%] of our debt is fixed rate or is fixed via interest rate swap agreements, which includes all of our property secured debt and our unsecured senior notes.

[removed: Our access to debt or equity capital depends on a number of factors, including the market’s] perception of our growth potential and risk profile, our ability to pay dividends, and our current and potential future earnings.
Of our [removed: $4.3] [added: $4.1] billion of debt outstanding as of December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] approximately [removed: $456.5] [added: $356.5] million bears interest at a variable rate, of which, [removed: $400.0] [added: $300.0] million is our unsecured term loan that bears interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus [removed: 135] [added: 80] basis points and $56.5 million in mortgages payable that bear interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus 195 basis points and are effectively fixed through two interest rate swap agreements.
We also have a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility, on which no balance was outstanding at December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] that bears interest at LIBOR plus 77.5 basis points.
Further, the presence of contamination on our properties or the failure to properly remediate contamination at any of our properties may adversely affect [added: our ability to sell or lease those properties or to borrow funds by using those properties as collateral.]
Failure to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes would cause [removed: us] [added: the Parent Company] to be taxed as a corporation, which would substantially reduce funds available for payment of distributions.
To maintain our status as a REIT, we limit the amount of shares any one shareholder [added: of the Parent Company] can own.
[added: To protect our REIT status, the Parent Company's declaration of trust prohibits any one shareholder from] owning (actually or constructively) more than 9.8% in value of the outstanding common shares or of any class or series of outstanding preferred shares.
Shares of [removed: our] [added: the Parent Company's] capital stock owned, actually or constructively, by a group of related individuals and/or entities may be treated as constructively owned by one of those individuals or entities.
In addition, the Board of Trustees and two-thirds of our shareholders eligible to vote at a shareholder meeting may remove these restrictions if they determine it is no longer in our [removed: best interests to attempt to qualify, or to continue to qualify, as a REIT.]
Certain tax and anti-takeover provisions of [removed: our] [added: the Parent Company's] declaration of trust and [removed: bylaws] [added: bylaws, and certain restrictions in the Partnership's limited partnership agreement,] may inhibit a change of our control.
Certain provisions contained in [removed: our] [added: the Parent Company's] declaration of trust and bylaws and the Maryland General Corporation Law, as applicable to Maryland REITs, may discourage a third party from making a tender offer or acquisition proposal to us.
[removed: Our] [added: The Parent Company's] bylaws state that the Maryland control share acquisition law will not apply to any acquisition by any person of our common shares.

best interests for the Parent Company to attempt to qualify, or to continue to qualify, as a REIT.
In addition, certain provisions in the Partnership’s limited partnership agreement (the “Partnership Agreement”) may delay or make more difficult unsolicited acquisitions of us or changes in our control.
These provisions could discourage third parties from making proposals involving an unsolicited acquisition of us or change of our control, although some shareholders might consider such proposals, if made, desirable.
These provisions also make it more difficult for third parties to alter the management structure of the Partnership without the concurrence of our Board of Trustees.
These provisions include, among others:
- redemption rights of limited partners and certain assignees of units of limited partnership interest ("OP Units");
- transfer restrictions on OP Units and restrictions on admissions of partners;
- a requirement that the General Partner may not be removed as the general partner of the Partnership without its consent;
[Table of Contents](#ibe58cef85c3b4b7887126cf4cc9e906a_100)
- the ability of the General Partner to issue preferred partnership interests in the Partnership with terms that it may determine, without the approval or consent of any Limited Partner; and
- restrictions on the ability of the General Partner, the Partnership or the Parent Company to transfer its interests in the Partnership or otherwise engage in certain extraordinary transactions, including, among others, certain mergers, business combinations, sales of all or substantially all of their assets and recapitalizations.

The Parent Company is a holding company with no direct operations, and it will rely on funds received from the Partnership to pay its obligations and make distributions to its shareholders.
The Parent Company is a holding company and expects to conduct substantially all of its operations through the Partnership.
The Parent Company will not have, apart from an interest in the Partnership, any independent operations.
As a result, the Parent Company will rely on distributions from the Partnership to make any distributions we declare on our common shares.
The Parent Company will also rely on distributions from the Partnership to meet its obligations, including any tax liability on taxable income allocated to the Parent Company from the Partnership.
Through its ownership and control of the General Partner, the Parent Company exercises exclusive control over the Partnership, including the authority to cause the Partnership to make distributions, subject to certain limited approval and voting rights of the Partnership’s Limited Partners as described in the Partnership Agreement.
In addition, because the Parent Company is a holding company, your claims as shareholders are structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities and obligations to preferred equity holders of the Partnership and its subsidiaries.
Therefore, in the event of a bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or reorganization of the Partnership or its subsidiaries, assets of the Partnership or the applicable subsidiary will be available to satisfy any claims of our shareholders only after such liabilities and obligations have been satisfied in full.
On January 4, 2021, we acquired our partner's 20% interest in our joint venture arrangement related to the Pike & Rose hotel.

Since March 2020 when the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a global pandemic, we have been and continue to be impacted by COVID-19 and the actions taken by federal, state, and local government to prevent its spread.
These actions included the closure of nonessential businesses and ordering residents to generally stay at home at the onset of the pandemic, phased reopenings and capacity limitations, and now generally lifted restrictions.
While the overall economy is showing signs of recovery from the initial impacts of COVID-19, workforce shortages, global supply chain bottlenecks and shortages, inflation, as well as COVID-19 variants are impacting the pace of recovery.
Closures and restrictions, along with general concern over the spread of COVID-19, required a significant number of tenants to close their operations or to significantly limit the amount of business they are able to conduct, which impacted their ability to timely pay rent as required under our leases and also caused many tenants to close their business permanently.

We have aligned our program and efforts with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, as described in our ESG Policy and our 2020 Corporate Responsibility Report, which are provided only for informational purposes on our website and not incorporated herein.
To achieve these targets, we are actively addressing energy efficiency projects on site such as upgrading to LED lighting; and to address emissions we are procuring green energy, reducing electric consumption, and increasing our onsite solar generation capacity.
We have installed on-site solar systems at 25 of our properties with a capacity of over 13 MW with more projects actively in progress.
We currently have over 300 charging stations in operation with more under construction.
We also understand that we face risks presented by climate change and are working to evaluate our risk exposure.
In our 2020 Corporate Responsibility Report, we provided a disclosure pursuant to the Task Force on Climate Related Financial Disclosure and we intend to provide that disclosure annually.

*Collectibility of Lease Income*
These actions included the closure of nonessential businesses and ordering residents to generally stay at home at the onset of the pandemic, phased re-openings and capacity limitations, and now generally lifted restrictions.
While the overall economy is showing signs of recovery from the initial impacts of COVID-19, workforce shortages, global supply chain bottlenecks and shortages, inflation, as well as COVID-19 variants are impacting the recovery.
Closures and restrictions, along with the general concern over the spread of COVID-19, required a significant number of tenants to close their operations or to significantly limit the amount of business they were able to conduct, which impacted their ability to timely pay rent as required under our leases and also caused many tenants to close their business permanently.
The existence and amount of variable consideration can vary significantly among transactions.
Historically, our property sales have had variable consideration of less than 1% of total expected consideration; however, we had one transaction in 2019 where the variable consideration was approximately $45.5 million.

During 2021, we acquired properties with a total purchase price of $440.9 million.
$4.6 million, or 1% of the total purchase price was allocated to above market lease assets and $57.3 million, or 13% was allocated to below market lease liabilities.
If the amounts allocated in 2021 to below market lease liabilities and building assets were each reduced by 5% of the total purchase price, annual below market lease liability amortization increasing rental income would decrease by approximately $2.5 million (using the weighted average life of below market liabilities at each respective acquired property) and annual depreciation expense would decrease by approximately $0.6 million (using a depreciable life of 35 years).
We are also required to estimate the anticipated hold period.
A change in the expected holding period from a long term hold to a short term would cause a significant change in the undiscounted cash flows and could result in an impairment charge.
We also recognized a gain on acquisition of the controlling interest of $2.1 million related to the difference between the carrying value and fair value of the previously held equity interest.
On February 22, 2021, we acquired the fee interest at our Mount Vernon Plaza property in Alexandria, Virginia for $5.6 million.
As a result of this transaction, the "operating lease right of use assets" and "operating lease liabilities" on our consolidated balance sheet decreased by $9.8 million.
We now own the entire fee interest on this property.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we acquired the following properties:

for further discussion.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a global pandemic and in response to the rapid spread of the virus, state, and local governments issued orders and recommendations to attempt to reduce the further spread of the disease.
Such orders included shelter-in-place orders, travel restrictions, limitations on public gatherings, school closures, social distancing requirements and the closure of all but critical and essential businesses and services.
These orders required closure of all of our corporate offices as non-essential businesses.
Except for those employees who were critical to providing the necessary day-to-day property management functions required to keep our properties open and operating for essential businesses such as grocery stores and drug stores, and a few employees who were needed to carry out critical corporate functions, we transitioned our entire workforce to remote work in March 2020.
Although some of our corporate offices have reopened with capacity limitations, approximately 75% of our workforce continues to work remotely on a regular basis.
We have not laid off, furloughed, or terminated any employees nor have we modified the compensation of any or our employees as a result of COVID-19, and the transition to a largely remote workforce has not had any material adverse impact on our financial reporting systems, our internal controls, or disclosure controls and procedures.
Those actions included raising $1.1 billion in May 2020 through a $400.0 million term loan and the issuance of $700.0 million of senior unsecured notes, amending the covenants on our revolving credit facility to provide us operating flexibility during the expected period during which our cash flow will be impacted, and raising an additional $400.0 million of senior unsecured notes in October 2020.
Given the adverse impact on our cash flow, we did not commence any significant new capital projects during 2020 and we stopped, at least temporarily, portions of our capital spend that could be stopped.
We did, however, continue investing in a number of our larger projects which were in the middle of construction and could not be stopped without causing material adverse financial impact to the company.
These development efforts earned us the Sector Leader Development designation in 2020 from the Global Real Estate Environmental Sustainability Benchmark (“GRESB”) and enabled us to issue our first green bond in 2020, a $400.0 million offering that will be supported by certain of our LEED gold and silver certified buildings.
See Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements.
As an example, under our solar program that we started in 2012, we have installed on-site solar systems at 25 of our properties with a capacity of over 13 MW and we anticipate adding solar installations at several more of our properties over the next few years to further our ability to source energy from renewable sources.
Currently, we are evaluating the risks presented by climate change to help us better understand potential actions we could take to help mitigate our portfolio’s environmental footprint while protecting our long-term investments.
*Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable*
Lease payments are recognized on a straight-line
basis from the point in time when the tenant controls the space through the term of the related lease.
Variable lease payments relating to percentage rent are recognized at the end of the lease year or earlier if we have determined the required sales level is achieved.
Real estate tax and other cost reimbursements are recognized on an accrual basis over the periods in which the related expenditures are incurred.
Many of our leases contain tenant options that enable the tenant to extend the term of the lease at expiration at pre-established rental rates that often include fixed rent increases, consumer price index adjustments or other market rate adjustments from the prior base rent.
For a tenant to terminate its lease agreement prior to the end of the agreed term, we may require that they pay a fee to cancel the lease agreement.
Lease termination fees are generally recognized on the termination date if the tenant has relinquished control of the space.
When a lease is terminated early but the tenant continues to control the space under a modified lease agreement, the lease termination fee is generally recognized evenly over the remaining term of the modified lease agreement.
Lease concessions (unrelated to the COVID-19 pandemic) are evaluated to determine whether the concession represents a modification of the original lease contract.
Modifications generally result in a reassessment of the lease term and lease classification, and remeasurement of lease payments received.
Remeasured lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the modified lease contract.
In April 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued interpretive guidance relating to the accounting for lease concessions provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic that allows entities to treat the concession as if it was a part of the existing contract instead of applying lease modification accounting.
This guidance is only applicable to the COVID-19 pandemic related lease concessions that do not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or the obligations of the lessee.
We have elected this option relating to qualifying rent deferral and rent abatement agreements.
For qualifying lease modifications with rent deferrals, this results in no change to our revenue recognition but an increase in the lease receivable balance until the deferred rent has been repaid.
For qualifying lease modifications that include rent abatement concessions, this results in a direct reduction of rental income in the current period.
As of December 31, 2020, we have entered into rent deferral agreements and rent abatement agreements related to the COVID-19 pandemic representing approximately $36 million and $35 million, respectively, of rent otherwise owed during the year ended December 31, 2020, and continue negotiations with other tenants.
This includes initially ordering closures of nonessential business and ordering residents to generally stay at home, subsequent phased re-openings, and during the fourth quarter of 2020, additional closures and capacity limitations as infection levels increased in certain areas.
These actions, along with the general concern over the spread of COVID-19, have resulted in many of our tenants temporarily or even permanently closing their businesses, and for some, it has impacted their ability to pay rent.
variable consideration recognized in order to mitigate this risk.
The nature of our business as an owner, redeveloper and operator of retail shopping centers and mixed-use properties means that we invest significant amounts of capital.
Depreciation and maintenance costs relating to our properties constitute substantial costs for us as well as the industry as a whole.

FEDERAL REALTY OP LP
EXPLANATORY NOTE
Through the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the business of the registrant was conducted by an entity known as Federal Realty Investment Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Predecessor”).
On December 2, 2021, the Predecessor’s Board of Trustees approved the reorganization of the Predecessor’s business into an umbrella partnership real estate investment trust, or “UPREIT.” To effect the UPREIT reorganization, the Predecessor formed a wholly-owned subsidiary real estate investment trust known as FRT Holdco REIT (“Holdco”), and Holdco formed its own wholly-owned subsidiary real estate investment trust known as FRT Merger Sub REIT (“Merger Sub”).
Holdco also formed a wholly-owned subsidiary limited liability company known as Federal Realty GP LLC (the “General Partner”).
Effective as of January 1, 2022, Merger Sub merged with and into the Predecessor, with the Predecessor being the surviving entity and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco (the “Merger”).
At the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding capital share of the Predecessor was converted into one equivalent capital share of Holdco.
Effective as of January 5, 2022, the Predecessor converted into a Delaware limited partnership known as Federal Realty OP LP, the entity we refer to herein as the “Partnership.” In connection with the UPREIT reorganization, Holdco changed its name to Federal Realty Investment Trust, the entity we refer to herein as the “Parent Company.” The Parent Company had the same consolidated assets and liabilities immediately following the Merger as the Predecessor immediately before the Merger.

As of December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] we owned or had a majority ownership interest in community and neighborhood shopping centers and mixed-used properties which are operated as [removed: 101] [added: 104] predominantly retail real estate projects comprising approximately [removed: 23.4] [added: 25.1] million square feet.
No single commercial or residential property accounted for over 10% of our [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] total revenue.
As of December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] we had approximately [removed: 2,800] [added: 3,100] commercial leases and [removed: 2,700] [added: 3,000] residential leases, with tenants ranging from sole proprietors to major national and international retailers.
No one tenant or affiliated group of tenants accounted for more than [removed: 3.6%] [added: 2.7%] of our annualized base rent as of December 31, [removed: 2020.][added: 2021.]
As a result of our tenant diversification, we believe our exposure to any one bankruptcy filing [removed: in the retail sector] has not been and will not be significant, however, multiple filings by a number of [removed: retailers] [added: tenants] could have a significant impact.
Our [removed: 101] [added: 104] real estate projects are located in [removed: 11] [added: 12] states and the District of Columbia.
The following table shows the number of projects, the gross leasable area (“GLA”) of commercial space and the percentage of total portfolio gross leasable area of commercial space in each state as of December 31, [removed: 2020.][added: 2021.]

Leases on residential units are generally for a period of one year or less and, in [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] represented approximately [removed: 10.3%] [added: 9.1%] of total rental income.
The following table sets forth the schedule of lease expirations for our commercial leases in place as of December 31, [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] for each of the 10 years beginning with [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] and after [removed: 2030] [added: 2031] in the aggregate assuming that none of the tenants exercise future renewal options.
Annualized base rents reflect in-place contractual rents as of December 31, [removed: 2020.][added: 2021.]
During [removed: 2019,] [added: 2021,] we signed leases for a total of [removed: 1,675,000] [added: 2,193,000] square feet of retail space including [removed: 1,557,000] [added: 2,093,000] square feet of comparable space leases (leases for which there was a prior tenant) at an average rental increase of [removed: 8%] [added: 7%] on a cash basis.
New leases for comparable spaces were signed for [removed: 793,000] [added: 1,144,000] square feet at an average rental increase of [removed: 11%] [added: 10%] on a cash basis.
Renewals for comparable spaces were signed for [removed: 763,000] [added: 949,000] square feet at an average rental increase of [removed: 4%] [added: 3%] on a cash basis.
Tenant improvements and incentives for comparable spaces were [removed: $42.60] [added: $37.57] per square foot, of which, [removed: $81.24] [added: $65.92] per square foot was for new leases and [removed: $2.43] [added: $3.41] per square foot was for renewals in [removed: 2019.][added: 2021.]
The comparison between [removed: annual] [added: the] rent for expiring leases and new leases is determined by including [removed: minimum rent and percentage] [added: contractual] rent [removed: paid] on the expiring [removed: lease] [added: lease, including percentage rent,] and [removed: minimum] [added: the comparable annual] rent and in some instances, projections of [removed: first lease year] percentage rent, to be paid on the new lease.
In atypical circumstances, management may exercise judgment as to how to most effectively reflect the comparability of [removed: spaces] [added: rents] reported in this calculation.
As a result of accommodations made to certain tenants to help them to stay open during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, we have found it necessary to exercise more judgement in 2020 [added: and 2021] than in prior years in order to appropriately reflect the comparability of [removed: spaces] [added: rents] in the calculation.
Tenant improvements and incentives include the total dollars committed for the improvement (fit out) of a space as it relates to a specific [removed: lease and, except for redevelopments, may also include base building costs (i.e. expansion, escalators or new entrances) which are required to make the space leasable.][added: lease.]
Incentives include amounts paid to tenants as [added: an] inducement to sign a lease that do not represent building improvements.
Costs related to [removed: redevelopments] [added: tenant improvements] require [removed: judgment] [added: judgement] by management in determining what [removed: reflects base building] [added: are] costs [added: specific to the tenant] and [removed: thus, is] not [removed: included in] [added: deferred maintenance on] the [removed: "tenant improvements and incentives" amount.][added: space.]
Historically, we have executed comparable space leases for [removed: 1.3] [added: 1.4] to 1.9 million square feet of retail space each year.
We expect the volume for [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] will be in line with, or potentially [removed: exceed] [added: exceed,] our historical averages given a larger amount of [removed: current] vacancy as a result of COVID-19.
The leases signed in [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] generally become effective over the following two years though some may not become effective until [removed: 2023] [added: 2024] and beyond.

As of December 31, 2021, we executed rent deferral agreements related to the COVID-19 pandemic representing approximately $46 million of rent.
We have subsequently collected approximately $27 million of those amounts previously deferred.
As of December 31, 2021, we have entered into rent abatement agreements related to the COVID-19 pandemic totaling $26 million and $48 million of rents due in 2021 and 2020, respectively.
These actions included the closure of nonessential businesses and ordering residents to generally stay at home at the onset of the pandemic, phased re-openings and capacity limitations, and now generally lifted restrictions.
While the overall economy is showing signs of recovery from the initial impacts of COVID-19, workforce shortages, global supply chain bottlenecks and shortages, inflation, as well as COVID-19 variants are impacting the recovery.
Closures and restrictions, along with the general concern over the spread of COVID-19, required a significant number of tenants to close their operations or to significantly limit the amount of business they were able to conduct, which impacted their ability to timely pay rent as required under our leases and also caused many tenants to close their business permanently.

*Policy beginning January 1, 2019, with our adoption of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842, "Leases"*
As of December 31, 2020, we have entered into rent deferral agreements and rent abatement agreements related to the COVID-19 pandemic representing approximately $36 million and $35 million, respectively, of rent otherwise owed during the year ended December 31, 2020, and continue negotiations with other tenants.
This includes initially ordering closures of nonessential business and ordering residents to generally stay at home, subsequent phased re-openings, and during the fourth quarter of 2020, additional closures and capacity limitations as infection levels increased in certain areas.
These actions, along with the general concern over the spread of COVID-19, have resulted in many of our tenants temporarily or even permanently closing their businesses, and for some, it has impacted their ability to pay rent.
*Policy prior to January 1, 2019*
Prior to January 1, 2019, management estimates of collectability were considered when reserving for billed and accrued lease receivables and straight-line rent receivables.
Full and partial reserves were recorded when determined to be appropriate with a corresponding charge to bad debt expense.
The primary impact of the adoption of ASC 842, “Leases,” on our recognition of lease revenue relates to the upfront and ongoing assessment of the collectability of substantially all lease payments required by the new standard.
Minor
In one of our mortgage loan arrangements, we receive additional interest, however, we never receive in excess of 50% of the residual profit in the project, and because the borrower has either a substantial investment in the project or has guaranteed all or a portion of our loan (or a combination thereof), the loans qualify for loan accounting.
The amounts under these arrangements are presented as mortgage notes receivable at December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Approximately $30.3 million of the loans are secured by first mortgages on retail buildings at December 31, 2020.
We have also evaluated our mortgage notes receivable investments and determined that the entities obligated under the mortgage notes are not VIEs.
Our equity method investments and mortgage notes receivable balances are presented separately in our consolidated balance sheets.
On August 2, 2019, we acquired the 10.1% redeemable noncontrolling interest in the partnership that owns our Montrose Crossing Shopping Center for $10.0 million, bringing our ownership interest to 100%.
Also upon adoption of ASC 842 and reflected in our 2019 and 2020 financial statements, we do not record a gross up of revenue and expense for costs (such as real estate taxes) paid directly by lessees on our behalf.
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

| Adopted on January 1, 2020: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) and related updates: ASU 2016-13, June 2016, *Financial* *Instruments - Credit* *Losses (Topic 326)* ASU 2018-19, November 2018, *Codification improvements to* *Topic 326,* *Financial* *Instruments - Credit* *Losses* | | | | | | This ASU changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments, requiring the use of an "expected credit loss" model and adding more disclosure requirements. ASU 2018-19 clarifies that impairment of of receivables arising from operating leases should accounted for in accordance with Topic 842, Leases. | | | | | | Upon adoption of this standard, we recorded expected losses of $0.5 million in opening accumulated dividends in excess of net income. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we recorded additional expected losses of $0.4 million, which are included in rental expenses. | | |
| ASU 2018-15, August 2018, *Intangibles - Goodwill and Other Internal Use Software: Customers Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract* | | | | | | This ASU requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement (i.e. hosting arrangement) that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets. Capitalized implementation costs related to a hosting arrangement that is a service contract will be amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement. Entities will expense costs during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages as they are incurred. The guidance can be applied prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption or retrospectively in accordance with ASC 250-10-45-5 through ASC 250-10-45-10. | | | | | | The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact to our consolidated financial statements. | | |
