San Mateo C TREND REVIEW Market Summary Office Report First Quarter 2010 Vacancy Rate As of the mid-year mark of 2011, shopping center vacancy within the Santa Clara County retail market stood at 6.1%, down from the 6.7% mark that was recorded as of the close of 2010. One year ago this number stood at 7.0%. While we are tracking asking rents as low as $7.20 and as high as $54.00 per square foot, the average asking rent for shop space currently stands at $24.95 per square foot (on an annual, triple net basis). The market continues to record modest overall rental rate growth, thanks mostly to gains posted by first-tier and second-tier shopping centers. Six months ago, the average asking rate for shop space was $24.89 per square foot. Asking Rents Anchor Vacancy Shop Vacancy New Construction West County vacancy dropped from 5.4% to 4.1% over the first half of 2011. One year ago vacancy stood at 5.5%. This trade area accounts for over 6.1 million square feet of inventory and includes the communities of Cupertino, Los Altos, Los Gatos, Mountain View, Palo Alto, Saratoga and Sunnyvale. Asking rents currently range from $12.00 to $47.40 per square foot, with an average asking rate for shop space of $32.07. This number actually decreased slightly over the past six months from $32.29 per square foot. The Central County trade area, with its inventory of over 19.7 million square feet of space, is Santa Clara County s largest retail marketplace. This includes the Campbell, Milpitas, San Jose and Santa Clara submarkets. Vacancy levels here dropped from 6.9% to 6.6% over the past six months. One year ago, vacancy here stood at 7.3%. The average asking shop rent here is $26.52 per square foot, up slightly from $26.27 as of the close of 2010. Throughout this trade area we are currently tracking asking rents as low as $9.75 and as high as $54.00 per square foot. The South County trade area, consists of the cities of Gilroy and Morgan Hill, and accounts for over 5.4 million square feet of gross leasable area. Vacancy here climbed dropped 7.6% to 6.8% over the first half of 2011. Asking rents here range from $7.20 to $36.00 per square foot, but the marketwide average asking rate for shop space stands at $16.63. Six months ago this number stood at $16.41 per square foot. Retail Review If one were to just look at the vacancy numbers, it would be easy to assume that the market had reached its high-water mark (in terms of retailer demand) as of the close of 2010. The Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa and San Mateo County retail markets all recorded modest increases in vacancy over the first six months of 2011. None of these were huge jumps and, indeed, the trends were not even within these trade areas. While overall vacancy at the county level may have notched up a few basis points, many of the individual submarkets within these trade areas still recorded decreased vacancy. Only the Santa Clara, Solano and Sonoma County markets recorded overall decreased vacancy levels. Yet, despite these numbers, retailer demand was up substantially over the past six months. Especially against the backdrop of the ongoing economic turmoil, it may be hard for anyone to believe that there has been some good news to report, but there actually is. In terms of retailer demand, the market has only seen continued improvement over the past six months. This quarter s Terranomics/Chainlinks National Retailer Demand Index places the current retailer demand level at seven, indicating a level of retailer demand that is slightly above average. At the same time last year, this reading stood at four, indicating a level of demand that is slightly below average. Only six of the 57 markets we surveyed failed to see increased demand levels over the past twelve months.

San Mateo C Office Report First Quarter 2010 The San Francisco retail market recorded a current retailer demand level of eight (indicating above average demand), compared to last year s reading of five (indicating the low end of average demand levels). For both the Oakland/East Bay and San Jose/Silicon Valley markets, these numbers translated into a current retailer demand level of seven (indicating slightly above average demand levels), up from last year s reading of five. Higher retailer demand and increased deal activity has also led to a strengthening position for landlords. This quarter s Terranomics/Chainlinks National Market Equilibrium Index reading was three, indicating that conditions currently favor tenants. One year ago this number stood at two, reflecting a marketplace where conditions heavily favored tenants. The numbers were much better for the Bay Area. The San Francisco retail market recorded a current equilibrium level of five (indicating equilibrium with a slight edge for tenants), compared to last year s reading of four (indicating that conditions slightly favor tenants). Both the Oakland/East Bay and San Jose/Silicon Valley markets also recorded current equilibrium index level of five, up from last year s reading of three (indicating conditions that favor tenants). Of course, considering the current economic storm clouds it is unclear if this trend will continue. There is a lag time in most real estate decisions, particularly for retailers. The expansion plans laid out in January might not result in deals being done until June with new stores possibly not opening until December. We have been watching retailer growth plans increase since the midyear point of 2010. As of Spring 2011 they stood at levels 40% above those recorded one year earlier. Heading into May s International Council of Shopping Centers event most retailers were still upping growth plans for late 2011 and early 2012. We have yet to see many backing away from those plans yet. However, should the current crisis of confidence worsen into a real recession, demand levels will almost certainly drop quickly. Of course, this does not fully explain why vacancy crept up (even if only by a modest amount) in five of the eight Bay Area markets that we track. How could demand and leasing activity be up, yet vacancy not drop? Certainly there is the issue of space being returned to the marketplace. The collapse of Blockbuster and Borders has translated into millions of square feet of space being returned to the market across the nation. But throughout the Bay Area, this has equated into just under 500,000 square feet of space being returned to the marketplace. This has been one factor mitigating growth over the first half of 2011. However, there is one other factor to consider. There is a disparity in trends that emerges when you break any given marketplace down by class. First-tier shopping centers in every market, even those with the highest levels of current vacancy, are posting improvement. They remain in high demand, are seeing the highest levels of deal activity and, in most cases, are already posting rental rate growth. We would define these properties as those that are within vibrant urban marketplaces, or located on top suburban intersections or trade corridors. They boast successful anchor tenants that help drive traffic to their centers and they have strong existing tenant mixes. There is a shortage of available space at these centers. We are also seeing improvement in second-tier shopping centers. Deal activity is spilling over from first-tier location to these centers. We define second-tier centers as being those that may be situated within vibrant urban marketplaces or even located on top suburban intersections or trade corridors, but if so, they are lacking either in terms of strong anchor tenants or tenant mix. More often, however, in built-out markets they are in secondary locations not on the main drag, but

San Mateo C Office Report First Quarter 2010 around the corner. They tend to be near the action, but near it. They also can be in primary locations in small trade areas, such as being the only supermarket-anchored shopping center in a small, bedroom community. Meanwhile, third-tier shopping centers remain challenged in nearly every single Bay Area market. These would be defined as the weakest locations within the urban or suburban core or weaker centers in smaller or rural areas. Unanchored strip retail, with a few exceptions, would largely fall into this category. This category also includes aging shopping centers challenged by obsolescence issues or in dire need of upgrades. The lack of small retail start-ups in the marketplace is having a particularly profound impact on these shopping centers. They uniformly boast the highest vacancy levels and rents remain under extreme downward pressure as owners of these properties are in fierce competition with one another to land tenants. Retailer demand remains strongly focused on first-tier centers. Our brokers report to us that in most of the Bay Area s markets that there is a shortage of this type of space. Many of these space users have opted to sign deals at second-tier centers. However, many other retailers have opted instead to sign deals at strong freestanding or urban retail locations. Because our survey only covers shopping centers, the occupancy growth being reflected by these property types are not reflected in our statistics. Lease Rate Trends Just as we are seeing a division in demand between first-tier, second-tier and third tier shopping centers, we are also seeing a divergence in lease rate trends for all of these properties throughout the Bay Area. First-tier properties throughout the region are recording rental rate growth and are succeeding in commanding top dollar for their spaces. However, vacancy for these centers is extremely tight. The region now has a shortage of premium space available and this is starting to impact deal flow. Developers are beginning to be active again, with multiple projects in the final pre-development stages, but it will likely be 2012 before we begin to see most of the projects in the pipeline moving dirt. With first-tier space increasingly hard to find, much of this activity has spilled over to stronger freestanding or urban retail locations (which our statistics do not track) or second-tier shopping centers. Rents have largely stabilized for second-tier shopping centers, with most of these posting rental rate growth, however, the strength of these gains are almost entirely dependent upon local submarket vacancy levels. For some second-tier centers, the growth has been strong. For others, it has been modest at best. Third-tier centers, however, continue to face challenges. Competition for tenants remains fierce for these projects and downward pressure on rents continue to be the norm. With both first and second-tier shopping centers recording rental rate growth, it may come as a surprise that a good number of the markets that we track recorded a decline in average asking rents over the first half of 2011. The average asking rent for shop space in Alameda, Marin, Napa, San Mateo and Sonoma Counties all posted modest overall decreases. This would seem counter-intuitive considering that some of these trade areas are where vacancy levels remain extremely low. There is a simple explanation for this. Our average asking rent numbers are based upon spaces that are currently available and being marketed for lease. They are not based on actual completed deals. In many of these markets (such as San Mateo County), vacancy levels are now so low that what is still left on the market is often the most challenged space. In other words, it is not unlike the clearance rack that has been picked over at a bargain sale what little remains continues to see price reductions. This is also why we saw modest increases in the asking rates for some of the trade areas in the region where vacancy is slightly higher. The Contra Costa, Santa Clara and Solano County

San Mateo C Office Report First Quarter 2010 markets all posted modest overall increases. All of these markets have vacancy levels that remain above the 5% mark. Though vacancy ticked up slightly over the first half of the year in the Contra Costa marketplace, Santa Clara and Solano Counties both recorded occupancy growth. Yet, in all of these cases, there remains enough premium space available in the marketplace that rental rate growth being recorded by first and second-tier properties is being reflected in average asking rate totals. Here there still remains quality space available for lease, though, like everywhere else in the Bay Area, it is moving relatively quickly. Looking Forward As this report went to press, the entire U.S. economy stood at a crossroads. Revised numbers from the Commerce Department painted a picture of a weakening economy during the first half of 2011. First quarter GDP growth was downgraded to just 0.4% and second quarter numbers came in at just 1.3%. Meanwhile, consumer spending, which had held its own even in the face of rising gas prices, finally fell in June the first decline since September of 2009. Job cuts reached a 16- month high in July. But all of this bad news was overshadowed by the circus of the debt ceiling debate, a fiasco that unnecessarily damaged confidence in the U.S. economy at a time in which it was already fragile. The damage in confidence was enough that, even with a last minute deal in place, stocks plummeted throughout the week in Wall Street s worst performance since the height of the Great Recession. This was followed by the announcement from Standard & Poor s that they were lowering the United States long-term sovereign credit rating from AAA to AA+. In explaining their announcement, Standard & Poor explained, We lowered our long-term rating on the U.S. because we believe that the prolonged controversy over raising the statutory debt ceiling and the related fiscal policy debate indicate that further near-term progress containing the growth in public spending, especially on entitlements, or on reaching an agreement on raising revenues is less likely than we previously assumed and will remain a contentious and fitful process Our lowering of the rating was prompted by our view on the rising public debt burden and our perception of greater policymaking uncertainty, consistent with our criteria. For the past year, we have been warning that a lack of governmental policy clarity was one of the factors holding back the economic recovery. We now have reached a painful point at which governmental dysfunction itself may now be the biggest threat to the economy. Sadly, if the debate over the debt ceiling is the blueprint for our political discourse until the next election, it appears that we may have fifteen more months of contention. Considering the impact on investor confidence that we are now seeing over this one, the signs are foreboding. It is still uncertain what the full impact of S&P s downgrade will be. Most analysts believe it will almost certainly result in increased borrowing costs for the government and higher interest rates on most consumer loans, ranging from credit cards and auto loans to variable rate mortgages. This, of course, is coming at a time in which the economy needs it least. But there is no doubt as to what the short-term impact of all of this news is. As this report went to press, the stock market had plummeted and had yet to stabilize. Ironically, though the debt ceiling debate and S&P s ensuing downgrade of U.S. credit were the touchstones of these events, little else has actually changed in the U.S. economy. The underlying fundamentals are those of a fragile economy struggling to find footing in a weak recovery not those of a recessionary economy. Corporate profits and balance sheets are up. Employment growth, though exceedingly weak, has remained in modestly positive territory. Energy prices the culprit behind much of the economic weakness recorded over the first half of the year are retreating. The problem is not

San Mateo C Office Report First Quarter 2010 that the economic picture worsened that much. It is that the nation currently finds itself in the midst of a politically self-inflicted crisis of confidence. Ironically, even in the panicked selloff of stocks, what did many investors turn to? Bonds, backed by the full faith and credit of you guessed it, the United States of America the one asset that actually was directly impacted by S&P s downgrade. It is unclear what the impact of this ongoing crisis of confidence will be. Should the stock market stabilize quickly, much of the damage we have seen in early August can be undone. But, if cooler heads do not prevail quickly, there could be dire consequences. We would not have made this statement a month ago, but the threat of a double-dip recession is now real, although we still think unlikely. Wells Fargo and Bank of America economists put the current chances at about one in three. Other analysts estimate the chances ranging from 50/50 to one in four. The economy is clearly at a crossroads. If cooler heads prevail, this crisis of confidence will fade. With the exception of June s weak numbers, consumer spending has been one of the few bright spots of the recovery. Despite all of the recent bad economic news, retail sales actually increased by 0.5% in July. This is the biggest increase that the market has seen in four months. Yet, on the same day that this good news broke, there also came foreboding news regarding consumer sentiment. The Thomsen Reuters/University of Michigan preliminary index of consumer sentiment dropped from 63.7 in June to 54.9 in July. This marks the lowest level that this survey has recorded since May 1980. The relationship between consumer confidence and consumer spending is a loose one. Throughout the recession we saw months where confidence surged as sales fell and vice versa. But, in the long run, consumer spending patterns almost always follow consumer confidence ratings. It just sometimes takes a few months for low sentiment to translate into depressed spending or for improved confidence to play out as increased sales activity. That being said, the real question ahead of us now is whether consumers will continue to spend and keep this fragile economy afloat. While retailer demand has been up across the board, it is difficult to imagine a scenario in which it is not impacted in the immediate future. Should the stock market stabilize, consumer sentiment improve and consumer sales hold up, we will avert a double-dip recession. The jitters of August would then likely just translate into another delay on the road to a more robust recovery. In this case, we would expect the impact on retail demand to be minimal. This would especially be the case in the Bay Area thanks to its current strength as one of the top retail markets in the U.S. and because moves made by well-funded tech companies in the region (the San Francisco, San Mateo and Silicon Valley Office and R&D markets are currently experiencing a massive boom in leasing activity), point to strong job growth in the region in 2012. Should, however, the economy fall into a double-dip recession, many retailers will pull back from planned growth for 2012. Worse yet, should the current crisis of confidence turn into another recession, it is a certainty that there will be more retailer bankruptcies and more space returned to the market.

San Mateo C Retail Investment Outlook Office Report First Quarter 2010 Over the first six months of the year, just under $6 billion in commercial properties were traded throughout the Bay Area. Retail investment properties accounted for 20% of all transactions, or approximately $1.2 billion in total sales volume. We are aware of a total of 46 properties that have traded throughout the Bay Area over the first six months of the year (this total does not include user sales), with an average cap rate of 7.1%. Over the course of 2010, the average cap rate for retail investment sales was 8.3%. Over the course of last year, a total of 40 retail investment properties traded accounting for just under $1.3 billion in total volume. Through the first six months of this year we have already seen more properties traded than last year and total deal volume has almost matched last year s totals. Of the 46 properties traded so far this year, 18 were in the East Bay, 12 were in the Silicon Valley, eight were in the North Bay, five in San Francisco and three were on the San Francisco peninsula. The average price per square foot of retail investment properties sold throughout the Bay Area over the first half of 2011 is $163.48. East Bay properties have averaged $197.04 per square foot with a 6.6% cap rate. North Bay sales have averaged $111.94 per square foot and a 6.0% cap rate. San Francisco retail properties achieved an average price of $189.33 per square foot and an 8.5% cap. Peninsula investment sales averaged $162.41 per square foot and a capitalization rate of 7.6%. Silicon Valley retail investment transactions averaged $127.23 with a 7.5% cap rate. While investment activity has nearly doubled over last year s levels, activity has actually been hampered by a lack of available product for sale. REITs have been extremely active, having raised over $4 billion on Wall Street over the past couple of years. Meanwhile, the pool of buyers has also increased as equity funds, private and institutional investors have become more active. The pool of would-be buyers has increased substantially, however, investor demand remains mostly focused on just a few property types. Buyers continue to seek the most stable of assets; trophy shopping centers with high levels of occupancy and single-tenant net leased properties. As the year has progressed, we have begun to see investor interest spreading to shopping centers with occupancy issues as well as value-add properties. That being said, the current economic turmoil could change this dynamic. Should the markets return to stability and the economy successfully emerge from the current crisis of confidence, we expect this trend to be slowed somewhat in the near-term, but to escalate as we emerge from the jitters. However, should the economy sink into a double-dip recession, we expect demand for riskier investments to drop substantially. It is unclear as to how the current economic turmoil will impact the investment market. In the short term, it could result in a surge of sales activity. Investors fleeing the instability of the stock market have already shown themselves willing to buy Treasury bills at a return rate as low as 2.1%. The irony here is that government bonds were exactly the investment type that was downgrade by Standard & Poor s. Yet, where have investors gone to seek security? Government bonds. But, keep in mind that a return rate of 2.1% is below the core inflation rate. In other words, in exchange for a safe haven, investors are literally willing to pay the government to hold their money. So, is there a good chance that many investors will seek out retail investment properties? Absolutely, however, they will likely be chasing the very same investment types currently in high demand and short supply; stabilized core assets, trophy shopping centers with high occupancy levels and single-tenant net leased investments that are leased to strong national credit tenants.
