1 Third Quarter 2017 / Office Market Report Tampa Bay Market Facts Strong Economic Fundamentals and Investor Confidence Continue to Propel Tampa's Office Market.1 MSF Total office inventory in the Tampa Bay office market 530,963 SF Direct net absorption for YTD % Overall Vacancy $27.02 PSF Average rental rate for class A space in Tampa Bay on a fullservice gross basis Economic Drivers Fueled by strong employment and population growth, Tampa Bay continues to enjoy solid economic momentum. The unemployment rate has steadily declined, dropping 80 bps over the rate recorded in August 2016 to a current 4.0%, and the strong pace of job growth continues with over 55,000 new jobs added in the trailing 12-month period. Healthy leasing activity is occurring, the population base is expected to grow by almost 300,000 (or 2.0%) by 2022, and the housing market continues to outperform. Major corporations also continue to reaffirm their confidence in Tampa, which was recently demonstrated by major announcements of planned corporate expansions by both AAA and USAA. Office Market Snapshot At the end of the third quarter, office fundamentals remained solid with an impressive 228 bps decline in the direct vacancy rate over the trailing 12 months to a current 11.03%, healthy net absorption for the year-to-date of 530,963 sf, and a notable uptick in the asking rental rates of $1.49 per sf since the third quarter of 2016 to a current $22.89 per sf on a full-service gross basis. Nearly every submarket has recorded positive net absorption so far in 2017 with the exception of North Pinellas and Downtown St Petersburg, the latter of which was largely due to a significant block of space landing on the market following the disposition of the former Priatek Plaza during the second quarter. In the North Pinellas submarket, the majority of the recent negative absorption took place in a single building in downtown Clearwater. The majority of the market's positive absorption recorded so far this year has been located in the Gateway, Bayside and Westshore submarkets, although the I- Corridor, Downtown Tampa and Northwest submarkets have also been solid performers. Several key leases were signed during the second quarter, the most notable of which

2 Tampa Bay Office Market Report Third Quarter 2017 The recent sale of Fifth Third Center is affirmation of continued investor appetite within the urban core. In fact, investment interest has been so vigorous in Downtown Tampa that virtually every class A tower has traded hands over the last five years.

Of the top nine direct and sublease deals signed, it is noteworthy that seven of them were in Downtown Tampa or Westshore. The Resurgence of Downtown Tampa Continues Strategic Property Partners, the development company behind the massive $3 billion redevelopment that will transform the Channelside area, recently unveiled plans for a 500-room hotel that will help anchor the area to be known as 'Water Street Tampa'. The flag for the new hotel has not yet been announced but the project is expected to break ground in 2018 at 10 Water Street and the hotel should open in Once completed, Water Street Tampa will be a walkable mixed-use district between the Channel district waterfront and the central business district that will include 3,500 multiresidential units, a new building for University of South Florida's Morsani College of Medicine (which is now under construction), 2.4 million sf of office space, and 1 million sf of retail, restaurants and entertainment. Higher-end collaborative workspace is also coming to Downtown Tampa at SunTrust Financial Center. Industrious, a company which describes itself as luxury co-working space and capitalizes on a growing national trend among entrepreneurs and small businesses, has leased,702 sf in the building with plans to open during the fourth quarter. A prominent downtown tower traded hands at the close of the third quarter when Farley White Interests, LLC acquired Fifth Third Center on Kennedy Blvd from Bridge Investment Group. The price of the transaction for the 281,187-sf, -story tower has not yet been disclosed, but the sale is affirmation of continued investor appetite within the urban core. In fact, investment interest has been so vigorous in Downtown Tampa that virtually every class A tower has traded hands over the last five years. USAA Expanding its Brandon Campus - Up to 1,000 New Jobs Expected by 20 USAA, a financial services giant, announced plans in August to expand its local footprint in Crosstown Center in the I- submarket with the planned construction of a new 240,000-sf office building. The new building will allow for up to 1,000 additional employees, which would bring the company's total local employment to over 4,500, and is slated for completion in 20. USAA also has a 500,000 sf center in Commerce Park, which opened in 93. Looking Ahead Demand side fundamentals marketwide are strong and solid net absorption of office space within Tampa's central business district is expected, however a lack of large blocks of quality class A space persists. Coupled with the continued scarcity of parking downtown, this may present a very real, albeit shortterm challenge for landlords in attracting larger employers. Heading into the final quarter of 2017, Avison Young expects leasing activity to remain solid, particularly in the Westshore area, that rental rates will continue to strengthen, and that investment sales interest will remain strong as investors scour for opportunities. On the investment side, high competition and low cap rates within primary markets are driving investors to secondary markets like Tampa, which offers a better relative value vs. price. Providing there are no significant economic shocks caused by policy reforms out of Washington, D.C., Tampa's office market should remain well positioned and in growth mode moving toward the year's end.
