Methodology Since 1995, the Rent Index (ERI) has been providing the real estate industry s only comprehensive, in-depth study of effective rental rate trends and the real cost of occupancy for tenants in the nation s major Central Business Districts (CBDs) and surrounding suburban markets. The ERI report tracks actual lease terms that reflect negotiated rents and concessions, as well as the key costs of maintaining a building (operating expenses, real estate taxes and electricity costs) that are partially passed through to tenants. The ERI Supplement highlights key economic trends and market fundamentals that underpin each market s performance. Every year, Savills Studley s Research team examines larger long-term direct deals signed in higher-caliber Class A properties. Total (gross) rent is separated into its key components: net (or base) rent and building expenses (operating expenses, real estate taxes and electricity costs). The Tenant Rent Index (the cost of occupancy to the tenant) is derived from total rent less the amortized value of concessions provided by the landlord. The Landlord Rent Index (the landlord s bottom line) is calculated from total rent less costs incurred by the landlord, which include expenses, concessions and commissions. All statistics in this year s ERI report are based on larger long-term leases completed during 2017 in existing or newly constructed Class A buildings.

Summary of Key Findings ERI 2018 Tenants paid More, but Continued to get More For the seventh consecutive year, tenants faced higher gross rent for premium Class A space in nearly every major Central Business District (CBD). Tenants are paying more for space, but they are getting more as well concessions pushed much higher in 2017. Additionally, many buildings underwent significant enhancements as landlords added shared amenities to either differentiate their assets or catch up to rising standards. The average value of amortized concessions rose by 8.3%. In turn, tenant effective rent rose by only 1.4% to $37.53 and landlord effective rent inched up by only 2.0% to $16.96. Looking ahead to 2018, there is little to suggest any significant change in conditions.

Growth was the strongest in tech centered markets and several Sunbelt metros. Landlords passed through higher operating expenses to tenants during 2017. Property taxes continued their moderate growth; steady sales and re assessments in a few markets contributed to the increase. Energy costs posted negligible growth in 2017, as tenant electric was generally flat. Net rent increased for the seventh consecutive year. Concessions pushed higher into record territory in markets that rely on traditional space occupiers, but fell in space constrained markets and tech centers. Tenant occupancy costs rose in 15 of 23 markets. Rising concessions muted the increase in many markets. Landlord effective rent posted its seventh consecutive year of growth, but the increase was the smallest since 2012. *As of 2017, 22 Central Business Districts are included in the unweighted average. The weighted average includes 17 markets with calculations weighted to reflect inventory in each market. EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018 2

National Benchmarks ERI 2018 Resilient Economy Surprising to the Upside U.S. economy and job market push forward despite gridlock in Nation s Capitol: In contrast to a very divisive and at times ineffectual Congress and White House, the U.S. economy rolled along in 2017. The core drivers of demand for office space - payroll growth and business investment - remain positive. Corporate tax reform and a looser regulatory regime are boosting business expansion and investment. New office development is rising, but remains below historical norms in most markets. In turn, the expansion cycle for the U.S. office market has a bit more room to run. Leasing rises in the second half of the year: Demand for office space in most tech markets (Austin, Boston, Seattle and Northern California) and lower-cost Sunbelt markets (Atlanta, Dallas/Fort Worth and Tampa) surged as 2017 progressed. Even Midtown Manhattan, which posted sporadic activity during the first half of 2017, registered more than 18 msf in leasing during the second half of the year as tenants capitalized on generous lease terms. San Francisco, which seemed to be slowing in 2016, was only briefly pausing 2017 brought a record year for larger leases as top companies absorbed nearly all of the space in new buildings under construction. Convergence: More consistency is evident in terms of tenant expectations. As major tech firms and multi-nationals spread out in multiple markets they are bringing their preferences with them. Owners that spend more on amenities, co-working space and building infrastructure are capturing tenants willing to spend top dollar. Companies will pay a premium for quality product loaded with shared amenities, the latest technology and efficient floorplates. The biggest amenity of all for any asset is a location in a connected walkable vibrant neighborhood. Additionally, soaring tenant improvement allowances align with the increased focus many firms place on redesigning their workplace to create an engaging and productive environment. Divergence: There is still a lot of differentiation in rent and pricing. Urban and gateway markets are achieving rent and pricing that is often twice that in suburban and secondary markets. Similarly, tenant leverage varies widely. The costliest markets that depend on traditional space occupiers such as Midtown New York and Washington, DC have seen the complete abandonment of a sliding scale for concessions. Tenants who spend less (with a rent of $70 or $80) are getting much more in the form of tenant improvement dollars (sometimes 0-plus) than they would have in prior cycles. In prior cycles law firms and banks spent lavishly, now tech firms will spend with a blind eye to costs. EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018 4

National Benchmarks Total Rent Pushes Higher Total or gross rent (first year taking rent) rose for the seventh straight year, increasing by 3.1% from $48.51 to $49.99. Total rent is 13.1% above its 2007 peak. Total Rent Components $50 $45 Net Rent Operating Expenses Real Estate Taxes Tenant Electricity Total rent consists of four components: net (or base) rent and three building expense components operating expenses, real estate taxes and tenant electricity. $35 $30 $25 Total rent rose primarily due to a 3.8% increase in net rent from $30.34 to $31.48.

ERI 2018 Value of Concessions Rises Relative to Rents Landlord Concessions: 2007-2017 Landlords agreed to more generous concessions in leases negotiated during 2017. 0 30.0% As a percentage of total rent, the average value of concession packages increased to 24.9%, with an average package of $94.83. Rent abatements increased in a few markets, but soaring tenant improvement allowances once again provided the primary impetus for this growth. Triple-digit allowances have become the norm in Midtown Manhattan, for example, where availability rates are at their highest mark in several years.

National Benchmarks Soaring Concessions and Weaker Rent Growth Lower Rents National Rent Comparison Tenant Landlord During 2017, landlords continued to achieve higher taking rent in nearly every market. However, total rent fell in three markets while posting very minimal gains in many others. At the same time, the spike in concessions was so steep that tenant effective rent posted its weakest increase yet in this cycle. Following a 5.4% increase in 2016, net rent rose by merely 3.8% in 2017. However; the increase in net rent fell short of the 8.3% rise in the average amortized value of concession packages. $35 $30 $25 $15 Consequently, the national Tenant Rent Index rose by only 1.4% to $37.53.

ERI 2018 Flat or Declining Rent in Several Higher-Priced Markets Tenant Rent Market Comparison 2016 2017 Despite posting the sharpest decrease in tenant effective rent during 2017 (-11.2%), Midtown Manhattan (with an average tenant effective rent of $72.36), remained the most expensive market for tenants. San Francisco, the second most expensive market for tenants, continued to close the gap, posting a 3.4% year-on-year increase to $65.45. Given the sustained tech demand in San Francisco, and softening in Midtown Manhattan, San Francisco may take over the top spot in 2018.

Tenant Rent Trends Sunbelt and Tech Markets Post Gains Sunbelt markets with sustained demand and controlled construction registered the largest percentage increases in effective rent. This includes the top three markets (Atlanta, Phoenix and Tampa Bay). Of note, all are increasing from effective rents that are well below the national average. Several techfueled markets (Seattle, Austin, West Los Angeles, Boston, San Jose and San Francisco) also registered aboveaverage increases. In contrast, markets that are dependent on cost-conscious traditional space occupiers, such as Manhattan and Washington, DC registered notable decreases. Similar trends were seen in Chicago and Philadelphia, however, fewer leases in newly constructed trophy buildings were also a factor. Seattle and Boston appear likely to post further growth in tenant occupancy costs next year. In contrast, rent in Northern New Jersey is likely to push lower and Washington, DC may struggle to achieve an increase in 2018.

Atlanta s office market has attained unprecedented rent levels. Based on a tenant effective rent of $27.95, rent was 26.7% above its prior peak of $22.05 in 2006, exceeding even San Francisco, which was 21.7% above its 2007 peak of $53.76. Of note, San Francisco is still falling short of its 2000 peak ($70.12). West Los Angeles, much like San Francisco, has seen rent push well into record territory due to a surging tech/ creative sector. In contrast, Tampa Bay s 26.7% spike has been driven by steady growth in professional/ business services and health care. The energy sector has stabilized, but the impact still lingers in Houston pushing effective rent 2.8% below its 2008 peak. The biggest gaps (25% or more) occurred in both Manhattan markets and San Diego (-35.2%).

Landlord Rent Trends Demand Resilient, but National Rent Growth Slows as Top Markets Cool: Landlord effective rent rose by 2.0% in 2017, a seventh straight year of growth but well short of the 4.8% increase during 2016. Heading into 2017 there was a growing sense that leasing and rent growth might be waning. Some markets displayed weaker activity in early 2017, but most of the tech-fueled markets and a handful of maturing Sunbelts surged as the year progressed. Construction Rising but Still Controlled: Very constrained new construction is also playing a role in markets like Tampa Bay and San Diego. In terms of new construction Manhattan is acting more like Atlanta, and Atlanta is acting more like Manhattan. Atlanta used to be the model of build and poach awash in ample new supply, and competing with one another for tenants - landlords poached tenants by offering record-setting concessions. Landlords in Midtown Manhattan currently face a similar dynamic. Tech Centers and Micro-Districts Present Challenges: In addition to stiff competition for space in Silicon Valley and San Francisco, a widening area of Boston, Downtown Seattle/Bellevue and Suburban San Diego are also seeing strong demand from tech firms. TAMI companies looking for big blocks of quality space are facing shortages in the West Loop as well as the River North areas of Chicago and Midtown South in Manhattan. A handful of suburban submarkets are also facing big block shortages: Orange County, the O Hare Area in Chicago and West Plano/Frisco in North Dallas. Capital Market Activity Down Slightly: Sales volume dipped for the second straight year as investors turned away from some gateway markets and pursued higher yields in secondary markets. Nevertheless, pricing for premier properties did not budge as sellers have no incentive to move off their asking price. In turn, many landlords will not reduce their initial taking rent, but they will pad deals with tenant improvement allowances and other concessions. 15 EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018

ERI 2018 Growth in Most Markets Landlord effective rose by only 2.0% in 2017, its weakest increase in this cycle. Northern New Jersey s 26.1% decrease pushed its landlord effective rent to the second-lowest spot on the list.

San Francisco posted the highest landlord effective rent for the third consecutive year. Landlords in Atlanta captured a double-digit increase in landlord effective rent for the fourth straight year.

Of note, the increase in landlord effective rent during 2017 (.34) was well short of the.81 increase in the value of concessions and commissions. During the last recovery, which lasted from only 2004 to 2007, landlord effective rent spiked by 60.3% rising from $11.67 to $18.75. So far this cycle, landlord effective rent has jumped by 56.4%, but it has taken seven years and still remains below its 2007 peak. Despite record concessions and an effective rent that remains below its prior peak, the longevity of this cycle has benefited landlord s bottom line.

ERI 2018 Suburban Tenant and Landlord Rent Tenant effective rent fell in seven markets during 2017, compared to just one in 2016. The West Loop in Houston has become one of the most oversupplied markets nationally, contributing to declining rent. In contrast, strong demand from larger corporate space users in Central Perimeter and Orange County supported substantial increases in occupancy costs. Extremely high rents in Cambridge, coupled with steady expansion in the tech sector has boosted rent in the Route 128 Corridor in suburban Boston as well. Space options have tightened in Fort Lauderdale. Additionally, steady corporate relocation activity in West Plano and Frisco continued to push rent higher. Sunnyvale/Santa Clara s 5.2% jump in effective rents does not fully reflect the extent of demand for space among larger tech companies, in R&D buildings located in Menlo Park, Palo Alto and Mountain View.

ERI Supplement - U.S. Economy Dow Jones Industrial Average (1990-2017) Equity markets have veered sharply upwards since late 2016. After some initial shock following the presidential election in November, investors seem to have reacted positively. The Dow has displayed some volatility in recent months due to multiple concerns, including rising interest rates and potential trade conflicts with China and the EU. Equity prices always seems to rebound more quickly than in prior years when standoffs in Washington, the Eurodebt crisis, the taper tantrum and collapsing energy prices created some dips. 41 EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018

ERI 2018 U. S. GDP - Post WWII GDP growth has improved slightly in 2017, but still averaged less than 2.8% in the first three quarters of the year. Global and U.S. GDP growth forecasts were reduced in early 2016, due to additional slowing in China as well as commodity-fueled countries such as Australia, Brazil, Russia and Canada. Economists revised GDP growth forecasts for 2017 and 2018 slightly higher due to tax reform and in anticipation of increased federal spending. EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018 42

ERI Supplement - U.S. Economy Home Prices, Case-Shiller 20-City Composite Index (2000-2017) Home prices, a key determinant of household wealth, have been increasing since early 2012. Based on the Case-Shiller 20-City Composite Index, pricing has increased by 35.9% since it hit a low point in late 2011, about half the increase in the prior cycle when prices rose by 70.4% between 2000 and 2006. Price growth fell slightly in the summer of 2014 and early 2015 - the first decline since early 2012 - but prices have rebounded since then. Limited new construction has kept the inventory of homes for sale at very low levels, helping to boost pricing. 43 EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018

ERI 2018 New and Existing Home Sales (1968-2017) The housing market started to recover by the second half of 2011. Existing home sales averaged 4.9 million units in the last twelve months and new home sales rose to 612,000 units (well below the 1.0 million in 2006). Mortgage transparency regulations implemented in late 2015 hampered sales. The high hurdle of saving for a down payment is still the biggest impediment to stronger volume. Sales have improved slightly in recent months due to increased household income growth and consumer confidence. EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018 44

ERI Supplement - U.S. Economy U.S. Auto Sales, Monthly (1980-2017) Auto sales have increased steadily from the low point reached in 2009. By August of 2015 sales had pushed nearly even with pre-recession trends. Attractive auto financing deals and improving household finances pushed annual sales to just under 18.0 million annually by year-end 2016, a new peak level. Auto sales appeared to hit a plateau at some point in early 2017. 45 EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018

ERI 2018 U.S. Real Median Household Income (1990-2016) On an inflation-adjusted basis (using 1990 dollars), median household income has made some gains in the last several years.

Overall, on an inflation-adjusted basis, household income is slightly above its pre-recession levels. $60,000 Median Houshold Income (Inflation-Ajdusted) $50,000,000 $30,000,000 $49,067 $46,657 $46,497 $44,112 $42,246 $41,451 U.S. Northeast West South Midwest Source: U.S. Census Bureau EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018 46

ERI Supplement - U.S. Economy Total Outstanding Consumer Installment Credit (1980-2017) Consumer installment credit such as credit cards, bank cards and other revolving debt has risen steadily over the last few decades. Until the most recent recession, households supplemented income with gains from higher home prices and home equity loans. They also padded spending power with credit card debt. Households lowered this debt slightly between 2008 and 2010 (in part through default), but outstanding credit has started to rise again along with the recovery. $4,500 Source: U.S. Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System Total Outstanding Consumer Installment Credit (Billions $) $4,000 $3,500 $3,000 $2,500 $2,000 $1,500 $1,000 $500 June 2008: $2.65 trillion July 2010: $2.39 trillion Year-end 2017: $3.84 trillion 47 EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018

ERI 2018 Mortgage Delinquency Rates (1981-2017) Another area of improvement for the U.S. housing market has been the steady decline in delinquency rates from a range of 9.0% to 10.0% in early 2010 to less than 6.0% in all regions currently. Delinquency has remained much higher in the Northeast and South. In contrast, the West has gone from a delinquency rate of nearly 10.0% in 2010, one of the highest nationally, to around 3.0%, by far the lowest among the four regions. Delinquency rates have increased slightly in the last few months. EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018 48

ERI Supplement - U.S. Economy Financial Accounts, Nonfinancial Corporations - Net Worth (1970-2017) One of the steadier features of the U.S. economy, virtually right out of the gates of the recovery, has been the strong balance sheets of corporations. The net worth (assets less liabilities) of nonfinancial corporations took a big hit in the recession, falling to $14 trillion, but has pushed steadily higher, rising to nearly $24 trillion as of year-end 2017. Companies have deployed the funds for mergers and acquisitions, dividend payouts, stock buybacks, and equipment and software. However, most businesses did not start to aggressively expand payroll until 2014. $30.00 Source: Federal Reserve Net Worth, Nonfinancial (Trillions $) $25.00.00 $15.00.00 $18.13 $14.27 $23.85 $5.00.00 49 EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018

Job growth was even weaker in 2017 with 171,250 average in the twelve month period.

ERI Supplement - Office Market U.S. Office-Using Monthly Employment Trends (2007-2017) Office-using employment has been increasing steadily in the last seven years. Employers have added 5.3 million office-using jobs since the start of 2010, more than twice the 2.6 million shed in the recession. Office-using sectors posted an average monthly gain of 51,769 jobs in the last 12 months, compared to 53,923 in the prior 12 months. In some markets, and in select industries, hiring goals have been hampered by a shortage of qualified employees, but the labor force has also been growing. 51 EFFECTIVE RENT INDEX 2018

ERI 2018 Office-Using Employment and Change in Occupancy (Current Cycle vs. Prior Peak) Tech-centric markets have registered the strongest employment growth. Austin, San Francisco and Silicon Valley are more than 30.0% above their prior peaks. In the last two years, hiring has also intensified in lower-cost markets such as Atlanta, Denver and Dallas/Fort Worth. Employment in Dallas/Fort Worth (28.2% above its prior peak) is benefitting from the relocation of companies from higher cost markets. In contrast, markets with a strong connection to the energy sector such as Houston have posted recent losses. Despite recent gains, several markets that still depend on a mix of real estate/finance and legal sectors (Orange County and LA) barely exceed their prior peaks.

ERI Supplement - Office Market National Office-Using Employment and Vacancy Rates (2000-2022) The U.S. has added an average of 437,773 office-using jobs per year in this recovery, exceeding the annual average of 326,000 jobs gained in the last expansion.
