office SOUTH BAY market report South Bay Records Robust Investment Sales Amid Strong Demand Market overview MARKET indicators - VACANCY 20.5% NET ABSORPTION 295,000 CONSTRUCTION 365,300 RENTAL RATE $2.24 FSG UNEMPLOYMENT 6.9% The South Bay office market saw total vacancy decrease during the third quarter of 2015 by 80 basis points to 20.5% from 21.3% last quarter. Direct weighted average asking rents increased to $2.24 per square foot (P), per month Full Service Gross (FSG) from $2.20 P FSG last quarter. Demand for space was positive with 295,000 of net absorption, while leasing activity dropped from last quarter s 4-year high to a still-robust 493,100. The El Segundo submarket led all submarkets in both demand and leasing activity as tenants continue to flock to the increasingly tech-rich area in search of Silicon Beach-comparable space at a discount. Investment velocity increased as a joint venture of Greenlaw Partners and Walton Street Capital purchased One World Trade Center in Long Beach from SteelWave, Inc for $105.9M ($184 P) in the largest transaction for the market this quarter. Further activity included Onni Group acquiring Manhattan Towers in Manhattan Beach from CW Capital for $91.5M ($294 P), Sunny Hills-Palladium acquiring 5757-67 W. Century Blvd. in Los Angeles from Decron Properties for $61.3M ($121 P) and 101 N. Sepulveda Blvd. in El Segundo selling for $51.6M from Menlo Equities to AEW Capital Management. Tishman Speyer bought 555 S. Aviation in El Segundo and intends to convert the former flex building into creative office once current tenant Xerox vacates in 2017.

A longer historical perspective of the total vacancy rate shows the rate a year ago at 21.4%. As demand increases and new or renovated properties deliver in varying states of prelease, the market will continue to experience fluctuations in vacancy. Total vacancy rates continued to be highest in the LAX/Los Angeles/Westchester submarket at 38.7%. Central Torrance recorded the lowest at a rate of 13.6%. rates were highest for Class B space (23.9%) and lowest for Class A space (16.7%) with Class C space in-between at 18.3%. Classes B and C saw decreases in vacancy for the quarter. NET ABSORPTION Net absorption was 295,000 in third quarter 2015, with all submarkets recording positive absorption numbers except Central Torrance (-7,200 ) and Downtown Long Beach (-13,500 ).

El Segundo Blvd. and Bandai taking 28,000 at 2120 E. Park Pl. UNEMPLOYMENT August 2015 figures for nonfarm employment in Los Angeles County showed continued recovery for the job market.

Educational and Health Services (+22,500), Trade, Transportation, and Utilities (+17,100) and Leisure and Hospitality (+16,800) posted the largest gains.

>> The South Bay market saw increased investment sales activity in both core, value-add and creative conversion properties >> Construction activity remains robust with 218,700 of office space under renovation and another 96,000 under construction >> The average asking rates in El Segundo have escalated from $2.48 P in Q3 2013 to $2.94 P in CONSTRUCTION Two new projects delivered to the market in third quarter 2015. Elevon at Campus El Segundo, a fifteen building creative office campus totaling 210,000, came to the market as a sale only property, providing another gateway to the submarket that potentially bypasses escalating asking rates. 2201 E. El Segundo Blvd., fresh off its sale to AGI Properties from Montana Avenue Capital Partners, also delivered fully leased to L Oreal Cosmetics. Renovation activity in South Bay remains strong, as 2040 E. Mariposa Ave. (88,700 ), 2175 E. Park Place (130,000 ) and 2400 Marine Ave (50,600 ) in El Segundo are slated to complete their renovations next quarter. Developer SteelWave also started construction on 2030 E. Maple Ave., a 96,000 creative office property. ACTIVITY New leasing activity during the third quarter totaled 493,100 compared to 645,613 in the second quarter of 2015, a decrease of -24%. The El Segundo/Beach Cities submarket continues to lead the South Bay market in leasing activity, recording 48% of the total activity. Major leasing activity this quarter included Guthy- Renker agreeing to consolidate their Southern California operations to 90,700 at 100 N. Sepulveda Blvd. in El Segundo and HealthCare Partners, Inc. signing for 32,300 at 4910 Airport Plaza Dr. in Long Beach. Rounding out the major leases for the quarter were Barrister Executive Suites renewing 30,700 at 21250 Hawthorne Blvd. in Torrance and Crimson Pipeline renewing and expanding for 28,400 at 3760 Kilroy Airport Way in Long Beach. RENTAL RATES The weighted average asking rent for direct space increased to $2.24 P from $220 P last quarter. This represents the 8th consecutive quarter of rate increases for the market. Average asking rents remained highest in the El Segundo/Beach Cities submarket ($2.94 P), and lowest in the LAX/Los Angeles/Westchester submarket ($1.59 P). In some top-tier buildings, particularly in El Segundo, asking rates continue to push past the $3.00 P mark. The delivery of the Elevon campus as a sale only property has driven rents higher, as the vacancy continues to drop without the influx of additional inventory.

outlook The South Bay market continues to see increased velocity as demand remains robust. The additions of the sale-only Elevon campus and the fully-leased Station have contributed to climbing rental rates as no vacant inventory has been added this quarter. Tenants continue to look to the market for space comparable to West Los Angeles at a relatively significant price discount, especially compared to Playa Vista and Santa Monica. Value-add properties and strong tenant demand for creative space are creating profitable opportunities for developers willing to take on renovation projects. The outlook for the overall South Bay market remains positive. market description The South Bay office market is comprised of 32.4 million, representing 9% of the total office space in buildings 30,000 square feet and greater in the Los Angeles Basin. Most of the space (64%) was built in the 1980s, and only 8% was built 1990 current. Nearly half (49%) of its space is contained within mid-rise buildings (5 13 stories), followed by 32 percent in lowrise buildings and 19% in high-rise. It has a large concentration of firms in aerospace (although much less than in the 1980s), automotive, telecommunications, information technology, healthcare, and business services, and is served by a highly educated labor force.
