It is great to see the commitment and enthusiasm of our staff, management, and Board of Directors, as we do our part to address the biggest challenges facing humanity.”

The Company’s inaugural report sets forth its corporate sustainability vision and values, which are based on the following three pillars: alignment, access and authenticity.

Environmental

Although the Report is the first of its kind for the Company, the Company has been engaged in collecting and tracking environmental data from its tenants since 2019, including energy and water usage. The report highlights the growth in the Company’s energy tracking efforts, from 11% of its tenants providing energy use information in 2019, to approximately 51% of its tenants providing the same information in 2020. The report also details the Company’s improved GRESB¹ assessment, from a score of 21 in 2019 to a score of 42 in 2020. Finally, the report details the Company’s future environmental sustainability plans and goals.

Social

The Company’s social efforts focus on its workforce, tenants and communities. The Report highlights the Company’s pilot program with the United Way to provide transportation for those in need to non-emergency medical appointments and describes the Company’s philosophy and goals regarding workforce and stakeholder engagement.

Governance

The report also describes the Company’s governance practices, which are based on integrity, transparency and accountability. The Board has taken a proactive role in governance leadership and has convened an ESG Working Group, that collaborates with the Company to support the evolution of ESG initiatives.
