1 Metropolitan DC Market Overview 4Q 214 Overall Market Summary The Washington, DC Metropolitan commercial real estate market is comprised of approximately 41.9 million square feet of rentable office space located in the District of Columbia, Northern Virginia, and Suburban Maryland. The total vacancy rate increased to 15.8% in the fourth quarter, up from 15.4% at the end of the previous quarter. The market recorded approximately 93,584 square feet of net absorption in the fourth quarter, a notable improvement from the -47, square feet absorbed in the third quarter. Leasing activity decreased with 4.8 million square feet in transactions signed during the fourth quarter. The largest lease executed was a renewal signed by law firm Finnegan for 252, square feet in Washington, DC. Three buildings completed construction in the fourth quarter ( DC, 1 VA, 2 MD), totaling 718,317 square feet and 47% leased. There were twenty sale transactions in the fourth quarter, comprising of 4.9 million rentable square feet and totaling $2.2 billion. The market totaled 15 million square feet in sales transactions worth $6.2 billion in 214. Average asking rental rates ticked down $.14 to $35.45 per square foot, Full Service.

The private sector should continue to drive employment; while the federal government continues to downsize its workforce. Early renewals are expected to dominate the larger lease transactions, as private sector tenants leverage the current market conditions. The GSA should continue to execute renewals as well, however, their primary focus will be on consolidating and downsizing federal office space requirements when possible. To maintain or increase competitiveness in this tenant s market, aggressive landlords will continue to renovate and upgrade amenities to their buildings. As the GSA and the private sector (as seen with the larger DC law firms) continue to reduce space requirements, vacancy is expected to tick upward, while net absorption is expected to decrease. While the construction pipeline remains limited, there will be a modest uptick in inventory with six new buildings, totaling 687, square feet, scheduled to deliver during the first half of 215. Sales velocity is expected to decline as there are approximately nine buildings currently under contract. With the recent success of CityCenter, look for other developments including; The Wharf, Reston Town Center, and Pike & Rose attempt to capitalize on tenants seeking higher-end space and millennials (25% of the workforce) who desire a Live, Work, Play environment. 11 Constitution Avenue Suite 325 East Washington, DC Wilson Boulevard Suite 2 Arlington, VA

This brings the year to date absorption total to -199,559 square feet (%) of Building Class Vacant Contributing to the majority of net absorption this quarter was the 392,784-square-foot move in by the National Institute of Allergy & Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at 561 Fishers Lane, in the Rockville submarket. 4 A B C 4 In the fourth quarter 214, total leasing activity was 698,318 square feet, a modest rise from the third quarter when the total leasing activity was 672,65 square feet.

4 Suburban Maryland Quarterly Overview 4th Quarter 214 Construction At the conclusion of the fourth quarter 214, six office buildings, totaling 556,694 square feet, were under construction in the Suburban Maryland office market. These buildings were collectively 5% pre-leased. Carr Properties speculative project at 45 East West Highway delivered 226,352 square feet of Class A space in the Bethesda/Chevy Chase submarket during the fourth quarter, while 118 Grand Park Avenue, the Pike & Rose project delivered 17, square feet of space in the North Bethesda/Potomac submarket. 49 Sandy Spring Road, the Starpoint Plaza, a 25,239 square foot Class B building is currently under construction set to deliver in first quarter 215 in North Silver Spring. 78 Harkins Road, the Department of Housing and Community Development building, is set to deliver 11, square feet of office space in first quarter Parklawn Drive will be delivering 1, square feet of office space in Rockville second quarter Observation Drive in Germantown will be delivering 8, square feet of Class B office medical space in third quarter Colesville Road, Ellsworth Place Office Tower, is currently under construction in Silver Spring. 21,6 square feet of Class A office space will be delivering in fourth quarter Park Potomac Avenue, Building D, will be delivering 129,855 square feet of Class A space to the Rockville submarket in first quarter 216. Outlook We expect that the trend of consolidation will continue in the near future, however long term we believe tenants will slowly gain more confidence in the market through 216 and begin to lease more office space. We expect renovations of existing Class B and C space to encourage tenant moves, as adding amenities to buildings will better cater to the modern tenant s needs. Vacancy rates are expected to rise through the next 24 months as more deliveries are made with much less pre-leasing than we are used to in the market. Building owners are likely to continue meeting the pressure of the market as tenants will continue to seek quality space in transit-oriented locations and look to landlords for tenant improvement packages they deem appropriate.
