Company", unless the context requires otherwise.
UMH Properties, Inc. ("UMH"), together with its predecessors and consolidated subsidiaries, are referred to herein as "we", "us", "our", or "the UMH is a Maryland corporation that operates as a self-administered and self-managed qualified real estate investment trust ("REIT") under Sections 856- 860 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). The Company elected REIT status effective January 1, 1992 and intends to maintain its qualification as a REIT in the future. As a qualified REIT, with limited exceptions, the Company will not be taxed under Federal and certain state income tax laws at the corporate level on taxable income that it distributes to its shareholders. For special tax provisions applicable to REITs, refer to Sections 856-860 of the Code. UMH was incorporated in the state of New Jersey in 1968. On September 29, 2003, UMH changed its state of incorporation from New Jersey to
Maryland by merging with and into a Maryland corporation. Our executive office is located in Freehold, NJ.
The Company's primary business is the ownership and operation of manufactured home communities – leasing manufactured homesites to private manufactured home owners. The Company also leases manufactured homes to residents and, through its wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary, UMH Sales and customers' privately-owned land.
Finance, Inc. ("S&F"), sells and finances the sale of manufactured homes to residents and prospective residents of our communities and for placement on We have expanded our portfolio of manufactured home communities through numerous acquisitions. During 2021, the Company purchased three communities totaling 543 homesites, located in Alabama, Ohio and South Carolina, for a total purchase price of \$18.3 million. During 2021, the Company also purchased one community in Florida, totaling 219 homesites, through its joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate for a total purchase price of \$22.2 million. As of December 31, 2021, the Company owned and operated 127 manufactured home communities containing approximately 24,000 developed homesites. These communities are located in New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana, Michigan, Maryland, Alabama and South Carolina. The Company also has an ownership interest in and operates one community in Florida through its joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate (See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and Note 5 "Investment in Joint Venture" of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
A manufactured home community is designed to accommodate detached, single-family manufactured homes. These manufactured homes are produced off-site by manufacturers and installed on sites within the communities. These homes may be improved with the addition of features constructed on-site, including garages, screened rooms and carports. Manufactured homes are available in a variety of designs and floor plans, offering many amenities and custom options. Each manufactured home owner leases the site on which the home is located from the Company. Generally, the Company owns the underlying land, utility connections, streets, lighting, driveways, common area amenities and other capital improvements and is responsible for enforcement of community guidelines and maintenance.
Manufactured homes are accepted by the public as a viable and economically attractive alternative to conventional site-built single-family housing. The affordability of the modern manufactured home makes it a very attractive housing alternative. Depending on the region of the country, prices per square foot for a new manufactured home average up to 50 percent less than a comparable site-built home, excluding the cost of land. This is due to a number of factors, including volume purchase discounts, inventory control of construction materials and control of all aspects of the construction process, which is generally a more efficient and streamlined process as compared to a site-built home.

Modern residential land lease communities are similar to typical residential subdivisions containing central entrances, paved well-lit streets, curbs and gutters. Generally, modern manufactured home communities contain buildings for recreation, green areas, and other common area facilities, all of which are the property of the community owner. In addition to such general improvements, certain manufactured home communities include recreational improvements such as swimming pools, tennis courts and playgrounds. Municipal water and sewer services are available in some manufactured home communities, while other communities supply these facilities on-site. expenditures tend to be less significant relative to multi-family rental apartments. Manufactured home communities produce predictable income streams and Many of our communities compete with other manufactured home community properties located in the same or nearby markets that are owned and
Typically, our leases are on an annual or month-to-month basis, and renewable upon the consent of both parties. The community manager interviews prospective residents, collects rent and finance payments, ensures compliance with community regulations, maintains common areas and community facilities and is responsible for the overall appearance of the community. The homeowner is responsible for the maintenance of the home and leased site. As a result, our capital provide protection from inflation due to the ability to annually increase rents.
operated by other companies in our business. We generally monitor the rental rates and other terms being offered by our competitors and consider this information as a factor in determining our own rental rates. In addition to competing with other manufactured home community properties, our communities also compete with alternative forms of housing (such as apartments and single-family homes).
In connection with the operation of its communities, UMH also leases homes to prospective tenants. As of December 31, 2021, UMH owned a total of 8,700 rental homes, representing approximately 36% of its developed homesites. The Company engages in the rental of manufactured homes primarily in areas producing.
where the communities have existing vacancies. The rental homes produce income from both the home and the site which might otherwise be non-income Inherent in the operation of a manufactured home community is the development, redevelopment, and expansion of our communities. The Company sells and finances, through a third party lending program, the sale of manufactured homes in our communities through S&F. S&F was established to potentially enhance the value of our communities by filling sites that would otherwise be vacant. The home sales business is operated as it is with traditional homebuilders, with sales centers, model homes, an inventory of completed homes and the ability to supply custom designed homes based upon the requirements of the new homeowners. In addition, our sales centers earn a profit by selling homes to customers for placement on their own private land. The Company may invest in improved and unimproved real property and may develop unimproved real property. Such properties may be located Our growth strategy involves purchasing well located communities in our target markets. During 2021, we entered the Alabama and South Carolina The Company also evaluates our properties for expansion opportunities. Development of the additional acreage available for expansion allows us to
throughout the U.S. but the Company has generally concentrated on the Northeast, Midwest and Southeast. Since 2010, we have tripled the number of developed homesites by purchasing 99 communities containing approximately 17,200 homesites. We are focused on acquiring communities with significant upside potential and leveraging our expertise to build long-term capital appreciation.
markets by acquiring communities in those markets and acquired one community in Florida through our joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate. As part of our growth strategy, we intend to evaluate potential opportunities to expand into additional geographic markets, including certain other markets in the southeastern United States.
leverage existing communities and amenities. We believe our ability to complete expansions translates to greater value creation and cash flow through operating efficiencies. The Company has approximately 1,800 acres of additional land potentially available for future development. See PART I, Item 2 – Properties, for a list of our additional acreage.

The Company seeks to finance acquisitions with the most appropriate available source of capital, including purchase money mortgages or other financing, which may be first liens, wraparound mortgages or subordinated indebtedness, sales of investments, and issuance of additional equity securities. In connection with its ongoing activities, the Company may issue notes, mortgages or other senior securities. The Company intends to use both secured and unsecured lines of credit. The Company's joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate also provides a source of financing for acquisitions of newly developed communities.
The Company may repurchase or reacquire its shares from time to time if, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, such an acquisition is advantageous to the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its Common Stock.
In addition to its manufactured home communities, the Company also owns a portfolio of investment securities, consisting of marketable equity securities issued by other REITs, which represented 7.2% of undepreciated assets (which is the Company's total assets excluding accumulated depreciation) at year end. The Company generally limits the portfolio to no more than approximately 15% of its undepreciated assets. These liquid real estate holdings provide diversification, additional liquidity and income, and serve as a proxy for real estate when more favorable risk adjusted returns are not available. The Company, from time to time, may purchase these securities on margin when the interest and dividend yields exceed the cost of funds. swimming pools, clubhouses and other common areas, and regulations relating to operating water and wastewater treatment facilities at several of our It is the policy of the Company to properly maintain, modernize, expand and make improvements to its properties when required. The Company
Manufactured home communities are subject to various laws, ordinances and regulations, including regulations relating to recreational facilities such as communities. We believe that each community has all necessary operating permits and approvals.
Our properties are insured against risks that may cause property damage and business interruption including events such as fire, business interruption, general liability and if applicable, flood. Our insurance policies contain deductible requirements, coverage limits and particular exclusions. It is the policy of the Company to maintain adequate insurance coverage on all of our properties; and, in the opinion of management, all of our properties are adequately insured. We also obtain title insurance insuring fee title to the properties in an aggregate amount which we believe to be adequate.
State and local rent control laws in certain jurisdictions may dictate the structure of rent increases and limit our ability to recover increases in operating expenses and the costs of capital improvements. In 2019, the State of New York enacted the Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019, which, among other things, set maximum collectible rent increases. Rent control also affects two of our manufactured home communities in New Jersey. Enactment of such laws has been considered at various times in other jurisdictions. We presently expect to continue to maintain properties, and may purchase additional properties, in markets that are either subject to rent control or in which rent related legislation exists or may be enacted.
anticipates that renovation expenditures with respect to its present properties during 2022 will be approximately \$10 - \$15 million.
The attraction, motivation and retention of our employees are critical factors in furthering the growth and financial success of the Company. We recognize that our ability to achieve the high standards we set for ourselves can best be accomplished by having a diverse team. We are committed to promoting diversity, equity and inclusion and our benefits programs are designed to achieve employee satisfaction and advancement. As of February 22, 2022, the Company had approximately 430 employees, including officers. Approximately half of our management team and 45% of our total employee population are female. Over 34% of our employees are 40 years of age or older and 31% are over 60 years of age. During each year, the Company hires additional part-time and seasonal employees as grounds keepers and lifeguards and to conduct emergency repairs.
Our employees are fairly compensated as compared to employees of our competitors and are routinely recognized for outstanding performance. They are offered regular opportunities to participate in professional development programs which focus on building their skills and capabilities. We conduct regional training sessions and are committed to providing a safe and healthy workplace that is free from violence, intimidation and other unsafe or disruptive practices. We hold an annual employee meeting that includes safety training, as required under the federal Occupational, Safety and Health Act, as well as harassment training. The Company also offers a robust wellness program to its employees that incorporates health benefits, including incentives for enrolling in exercise classes and for gym memberships. This encourages our employees to improve their mental and physical well-being.

The following is a summary of the principal risk factors associated with an investment in us. These are not the only risks we face. You should carefully consider these risk factors, together with the risk factors set forth in Item 1A. of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and other reports and documents filed by us with the SEC.
Certain statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Forward-looking statements provide our current expectations or forecasts of future events. Forward-looking statements include statements about the Company's expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, performance and underlying assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements can be identified by their use of forward-looking words, such as "may," "will," "anticipate," "expect,"
"believe," "intend," "plan," "should," "seek" or comparable terms, or the negative use of those words, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future performance, taking into account all information currently available to us. Forward-looking statements are not predictions of future events. These beliefs, assumptions and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to us. Some of these factors are described below and under the headings "Business", "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations". These and other risks, uncertainties and factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those included in any forward-looking statements we make. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us. Except as required by law, we are not obligated to, and do not intend to, update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, among others: ● the inherent risks associated with owning real estate, including local real estate market conditions, governing laws and regulations affecting ● our ability to continue to identify, negotiate and acquire manufactured housing communities and/or vacant land which may be developed into
You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, as events described or implied in such statements may not occur. The forwardlooking statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K speak only as of the date hereof and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Additional information about the Company can be found on the Company's website which is located at www.umh.reit. Information contained on or hyperlinked from our website is not incorporated by reference into and should not be considered part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K or our other filings with the SEC. The Company makes available, free of charge, on or through its website, annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the SEC. The SEC maintains an Internet site (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.
Our business faces many risks. The following risk factors may not be the only risks we face but address what we believe may be the material risks concerning our business at this time. If any of the risks discussed in this report were to occur, our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operation and our ability to service our debt and make distributions to our shareholders could be materially and adversely affected and the market price per share of our stock could decline significantly. Some statements in this report, including statements in the following risk factors, constitute forward-looking statements. Please refer to the section entitled "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."
General economic conditions and the concentration of our properties in certain states may affect our ability to generate sufficient revenue. The market and economic conditions in our current markets may significantly affect manufactured home occupancy or rental rates. Occupancy and rental rates, in turn, may significantly affect our revenues, and if our communities do not generate revenues sufficient to meet our operating expenses, including debt service and capital expenditures, our cash flow and ability to pay or refinance our debt obligations could be adversely affected. As a result of the geographic concentration of our properties in ten states in the Eastern United States, we are exposed to the risks of downturns in the local economy or other local real estate market conditions which could adversely affect occupancy rates, rental rates, and property values in these markets.
Other factors that may affect general economic conditions or local real estate conditions include:
Our income would also be adversely affected if tenants were unable to pay rent or if sites were unable to be rented on favorable terms. If we were unable to promptly relet or renew the leases for a significant number of sites, or if the rental rates upon such renewal or reletting were significantly lower than expected rates, then our business and results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, certain expenditures associated with each property (such as real estate taxes and maintenance costs) generally are not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from the property.
We may be unable to compete with our larger competitors for acquisitions, which may increase prices for communities. The real estate business is highly competitive. We compete for manufactured home community investments with numerous other real estate entities, such as individuals, corporations, REITs and other enterprises engaged in real estate activities. In many cases, the competing competitors may be larger and better financed than we are, making it difficult for us to secure new manufactured home community investments. Competition among private and institutional purchasers of manufactured home community investments has resulted in increases in the purchase price paid for manufactured home communities and consequently higher fixed costs. To the extent we are unable to effectively compete in the marketplace, our business may be adversely affected. We may be unable to finance or accurately estimate or anticipate costs and timing associated with expansion activities. We periodically consider
We may not be able to integrate or finance our acquisitions and our acquisitions may not perform as expected. We acquire and intend to continue to acquire manufactured home communities on a select basis. Our acquisition activities and their success are subject to risks, including the following:
If any of the above were to occur, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.
In addition, we may acquire properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, with respect to unknown liabilities. As a result, if a liability were to be asserted against us based upon ownership of those properties, we might have to pay substantial sums to settle it, which could adversely affect our cash flow.
expansion of existing communities and development of new communities. Our expansion and development activities are subject to risks such as:

If any of the above were to occur, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.
● occupancy rates and rents at a newly developed community may fluctuate depending on several factors, including market and economic We may be unable to sell properties when appropriate because real estate investments are illiquid. Real estate investments generally cannot be sold quickly and, therefore, will tend to limit our ability to vary our property portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. In addition, the Code limits our ability to sell our properties. The inability to respond promptly to changes in the performance of our property portfolio could adversely affect our financial condition and ability to service our debt and make distributions to our stockholders. ● the ability of manufactured home manufacturers to adapt to change in the economic climate and the availability of units from these
Our ability to sell manufactured homes may be affected by various factors, which may in turn adversely affect our profitability. S&F operates in the manufactured home market offering homes for sale to tenants and prospective tenants of our communities. The market for the sale of manufactured homes may be adversely affected by the following factors:
Any of the above listed factors could adversely impact our rate of manufactured home sales, which would result in a decrease in profitability.
Licensing laws and compliance could affect our profitability. Our subsidiary S&F is subject to the Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act of 2008 ("SAFE Act"), which requires that we obtain appropriate licenses pursuant to the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System & Registry in each state where S&F conducts business. There are extensive federal and state requirements mandated by the SAFE Act and other laws pertaining to financing, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and there can be no assurance that we will obtain or renew our SAFE Act licenses, which could result in fees and penalties and have an adverse impact on our ability to continue with our home financing activities.
The termination of our third party lending program could adversely affect us. S&F currently relies exclusively on its third-party lending program for all loan origination and servicing activity. As a result, the termination of our third-party lending program could impact our ability to continue with our home financing activities.

Costs associated with taxes and regulatory compliance may reduce our revenue. We are subject to significant regulation that inhibits our activities and may increase our costs. Local zoning and use laws, environmental statutes and other governmental requirements may restrict expansion, rehabilitation and reconstruction activities. These regulations may prevent us from taking advantage of economic opportunities. Legislation such as the Americans with Disabilities Act may require us to modify our properties at a substantial cost and noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. Future legislation may impose additional requirements. We cannot predict what requirements may be enacted or amended or what costs we will incur to comply with such requirements. Costs resulting from changes in real estate laws, income taxes, service or other taxes may adversely affect our funds from operations and our ability to pay or refinance our debt. Similarly, changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing on properties or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures, which would adversely affect our business and results of operations. Laws and regulations also govern the provision of utility services. Such laws regulate, for example, how and to what extent owners or operators of penalties on real property owners or operators who fail to comply with these requirements. The laws and regulations may also require capital investment to Tenant Protection Act of 2019, which, among other things, set maximum collectible rent increases. Rent control also affects two of our manufactured home communities in New Jersey. Enactment of such laws has been considered at various times in other jurisdictions. We presently expect to continue to maintain
property can charge renters for provision of utilities. Such laws can also regulate the operations and performance of utility systems and may impose fines and maintain compliance.
Rent control legislation may harm our ability to increase rents. State and local rent control laws in certain jurisdictions may limit our ability to increase rents and to recover increases in operating expenses and the costs of capital improvements. In 2019, the State of New York enacted the Housing Stability and properties, and may purchase additional properties, in markets that are either subject to rent control or in which rent related legislation exists or may be enacted.
Environmental liabilities could affect our profitability. Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner or operator of real estate is liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous substances at, on, under or in such property, as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. Such laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous substances. A conveyance of the property, therefore, does not relieve the owner or operator from liability. As a current or former owner and operator of real estate, we may be required by law to investigate and clean up hazardous substances released at or from the properties we currently own or operate or have in the past owned or operated. We may also be liable to the government or to third parties for property damage, investigation costs and cleanup costs. In addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and costs the government incurs in connection with the contamination. Contamination may adversely affect our ability to sell or lease real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous substances also may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of such substances at a disposal or treatment facility owned or operated by another person. In addition, certain environmental laws impose liability for the management and disposal of asbestoscontaining materials and for the release of such materials into the air. These laws may provide for third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury associated with asbestos-containing materials. In connection with the ownership, operation, management, and development of real properties, we may be considered an owner or operator of such properties and, therefore, are potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, and also may be liable for governmental fines and injuries to persons and property. When we arrange for the treatment or disposal of hazardous substances at landfills or other facilities owned by other persons, we may be liable for the removal or remediation costs at such facilities. We are not aware of any environmental liabilities relating to our investment properties which would have a material adverse effect on our business, assets, or results of operations. However, we cannot assure you that environmental liabilities will not arise in the future and that such liabilities will not have a material adverse effect on our business, assets or results of operations. Department of Environmental Protection Agencies. Currently, our community-owned manufactured homes are not subject to radon or asbestos monitoring
Of the 127 manufactured home communities we operated as of December 31, 2021, 47 have their own wastewater treatment facility or water distribution system, or both. At these locations, we are subject to compliance with monthly, quarterly and yearly testing for contaminants as outlined by the individual state's requirements.

Additionally, in connection with the management of the properties or upon acquisition or financing of a property, the Company authorizes the preparation of Phase I or similar environmental reports (which involves general inspections without soil sampling or ground water analysis) completed by independent environmental consultants. Based upon such environmental reports and the Company's ongoing review of its properties, as of the date of this Annual Report, the Company is not aware of any environmental condition with respect to any of its properties which it believes would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and/or results of operations. However, these reports cannot reflect conditions arising after the studies were completed, and no assurances can be given that existing environmental studies reveal all environmental liabilities, that any prior owner or operator of a property or neighboring owner or operator did not create any material environmental condition not known to us, or that a material environmental condition does not otherwise exist as to any one or more properties. changes in federal, state and local legislation and regulations based on concerns about climate change could result in increased capital expenditures on our properties (for example, to improve their energy efficiency and/or resistance to inclement weather) without a corresponding increase in revenue, resulting in
Some of our properties are subject to potential natural or other disasters. Certain of our manufactured home communities are located in areas that may be subject to natural disasters, including our manufactured home communities in flood plains, in areas that may be adversely affected by tornados and in coastal regions that may be adversely affected by increases in sea levels or in the frequency or severity of hurricanes, tropical storms or other severe weather conditions. The occurrence of natural disasters may delay redevelopment or development projects, increase investment costs to repair or replace damaged properties, increase future property insurance costs and negatively impact the tenant demand for lease space. To the extent insurance is unavailable to us or is unavailable on acceptable terms, or our insurance is not adequate to cover losses from these events, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Climate change may adversely affect our business. To the extent that significant changes in the climate occur in areas where our properties are located, we may experience extreme weather and changes in precipitation and temperature, all of which may result in physical damage to or a decrease in demand for properties located in these areas or affected by these conditions. Should the impact of climate change be material in nature, including significant property damage to or destruction of our properties, or occur for lengthy periods of time, our financial condition or results of operations may be adversely affected. In addition, adverse impacts to our net income.
Actions by our competitors may decrease or prevent increases in the occupancy and rental rates of our properties which could adversely affect our business. We compete with other owners and operators of manufactured home community properties, some of which own properties similar to ours in the same submarkets in which our properties are located. The number of competitive manufactured home community properties in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on our ability to attract tenants, lease sites and maintain or increase rents charged at our properties or at any newly acquired properties. In addition, other forms of multi-family residential properties, such as private and federally funded or assisted multi-family housing projects and single-family housing, provide housing alternatives to potential tenants of manufactured home communities. If our competitors offer housing at rental rates below current market rates or below the rental rates we currently charge our tenants, we may lose potential tenants, and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below those we currently charge in order to retain tenants when our tenants' leases expire.
Losses in excess of our insurance coverage or uninsured losses could adversely affect our cash flow. We generally maintain insurance policies related to our business, including casualty, general liability and other policies covering business operations, employees and assets. However, we may be required to bear all losses that are not adequately covered by insurance. In addition, there are certain losses that are not generally insured because it is not economically feasible to insure against them, including losses due to riots, acts of war or other catastrophic events. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occurs with respect to one or more of our properties, then we could lose the capital we invested in the properties, as well as the anticipated profits and cash flow from the properties and, in the case of debt which is with recourse to us, we would remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the properties. Although we believe that our insurance programs are adequate, no assurance can be given that we will not incur losses in excess of our insurance coverage, or that we will be able to obtain insurance in the future at acceptable levels and reasonable cost.

Our investments are concentrated in the manufactured housing/residential sector and our business would be adversely affected by an economic downturn in that sector. Our investments in real estate assets are primarily concentrated in the manufactured housing/residential sector. This concentration may expose us to the risk of economic downturns in this sector to a greater extent than if our business activities included a more significant portion of other sectors of the real estate industry.
Our joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate may subject us to risks, including limitations on our decision-making authority and the risk of disputes, which could adversely affect us. We have entered into a joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate to acquire manufactured home communities that are recently developed or under development. We are required to contribute 40% of the capital required for investments by this joint venture. It is possible that our joint venture partner, Nuveen Real Estate, may have business interests or goals that are different from our business interests or goals. Although we manage the joint venture and its properties, we do not have full control over decisions and require approval of Nuveen Real Estate for major decisions. As a result, we may face the risk of disputes, including potential deadlocks in making decisions. In addition, the joint venture agreement provides that until the capital contributions to the joint venture are fully funded or the joint venture is terminated, and unless Nuveen declines an acquisition proposed by us, the joint venture will be the exclusive vehicle for us to acquire any manufactured home communities that meet the joint venture's investment guidelines. Nuveen Real Estate will have the right to remove and replace us as managing member of the joint venture and manager of the joint venture's properties if we breach certain obligations or certain events occur, in which event Nuveen Real Estate may elect to buy out our interest in the joint venture at 98% of its value. There are also significant restrictions on our ability to exit the joint venture. Any of these provisions could adversely affect us. payment of indebtedness. If we are unable to meet mortgage payments, then the property could be foreclosed upon or transferred to the mortgagee with a
We face risks generally associated with our debt. We finance a portion of our investments in properties and marketable securities through debt. We are subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing, including the risk that our cash flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest. In addition, debt creates other risks, including:
To the extent we cannot refinance debt on favorable terms or at all, we may be forced to dispose of properties on disadvantageous terms or pay higher interest rates, either of which would have an adverse impact on our financial performance and ability to service debt and make distributions.
We mortgage our properties, which subjects us to the risk of foreclosure in the event of non-payment. We mortgage many of our properties to secure consequent loss of income and asset value. A foreclosure of one or more of our properties could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, ability to service debt and make distributions and the market price of our preferred and common stock and any other securities we issue.
We face risks associated with our dependence on external sources of capital. In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required each year to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, and we are subject to tax on our income to the extent it is not distributed. Because of this distribution requirement, we may not be able to fund all future capital needs from cash retained from operations. As a result, to fund capital needs, we rely on third-party sources of capital, which we may not be able to obtain on favorable terms, if at all. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends upon a number of factors, including (i) general market conditions; (ii) the market's perception of our growth potential; (iii) our current and potential future earnings and cash distributions; and (iv) the market price of our preferred and common stock. Additional debt financing may substantially increase our debt-to-total capitalization ratio. Additional equity issuance may dilute the holdings of our current stockholders. could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and our ability to pay distributions. We have incurred, and may continue to incur,
We may become more highly leveraged, resulting in increased risk of default on our obligations and an increase in debt service requirements which indebtedness in furtherance of our activities. Our governing documents do not limit the amount of indebtedness we may incur. Accordingly, our Board of Directors may vote to incur additional debt and would do so, for example, if it were necessary to maintain our status as a REIT. We could therefore become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increased risk of default on our obligations and in an increase in debt service requirements, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and our ability to pay distributions to stockholders.

Fluctuations in interest rates could materially affect our financial results. Because a portion of our debt bears interest at variable rates, increases in interest rates could materially increase our interest expense. Interest rates currently remain substantially below historical long-term averages and may increase in the future. If the U.S. Federal Reserve increases short-term interest rates, this may have a significant upward impact on the interest rates that our variable rate debt is based upon. Potential future increases in interest rates and credit spreads may increase our interest expense and therefore negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations, and reduce our access to the debt or equity capital markets. Additionally, if we choose to hedge any interest rate risk, we cannot assure that any such hedge will be effective or that our hedging counterparty will meet its obligations to us. As a result, any increases in future interest rates could adversely affect us.
We may be adversely affected by the market transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"). A portion of our debt bears interest at variable rates based on LIBOR for deposits of U.S. dollars. The United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, has announced that it intends to stop encouraging or requiring banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration ("IBA"), the administrator of LIBOR, announced plans to cease publication of USD LIBOR on December 31, 2021 for only the one week and two month USD LIBOR tenors, and on June 30, 2023 for all other USD LIBOR tenors. While this announcement extends the transition period to June 2023, it is likely that, over time, LIBOR may be replaced by the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or another alternative benchmark. We are monitoring these developments and evaluating the related risks. Although the full impact of such reforms and actions, together with the transition away from LIBOR, alternative reference rates or other reforms, remains unclear, these changes may have a material adverse impact on the availability of financing, including variable rate loans, and as a result on our financing costs. service coverage and leverage ratios and maintaining insurance coverage. These covenants may limit our flexibility in our operations, and breaches of these purchasing or guaranteeing manufactured housing community loans. A decision by the government to eliminate Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, or reduce their acquisitions or guarantees of our mortgage loans, may adversely affect interest rates, capital availability and our ability to refinance our existing mortgage
Covenants in our credit agreements and other debt instruments could limit our flexibility and adversely affect our financial condition. The terms of our various credit agreements and other indebtedness require us to comply with a number of customary financial and other covenants, such as maintaining debt covenants could result in defaults under the instruments governing the applicable indebtedness even if we had satisfied our payment obligations. If we were to default under our credit agreements, our financial condition would be adversely affected.
A change in the U.S. government policy with regard to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could impact our financial condition. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are major sources of financing for the manufactured housing real estate sector. We depend frequently on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to finance growth by obligations as they come due and obtain additional long-term financing for the acquisition of additional communities on favorable terms or at all.
We face risks associated with the financing of home sales to customers in our manufactured home communities. To produce new rental revenue and to upgrade our communities, we sell homes to customers in our communities at competitive prices and finance these home sales through S&F. We allow banks and outside finance companies the first opportunity to finance these sales. We are subject to the following risks in financing these homes:
Additionally, there are many regulations pertaining to our home sales and financing activities. There are significant consumer protection laws and the regulatory framework may change in a manner which may adversely affect our operating results. The regulatory environment and associated consumer finance laws create a risk of greater liability from our home sales and financing activities and could subject us to additional litigation. We are also dependent on licenses granted by state and other regulatory authorities, which may be withdrawn or which may not be renewed and which could have an adverse impact on our ability to continue with our home sales and financing activities.
If our leases are not respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes, we would fail to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, we must, among other things, satisfy two gross income tests, under which specified percentages of our gross income must be certain types of passive income, such as rent. For the rent paid pursuant to our leases to qualify for purposes of the gross income tests, the leases must be respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes and not be treated as service contracts, joint ventures or some other type of arrangement. We believe that our leases will be respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes. However, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") will agree with this view. If the leases are not respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes, we would not be able to satisfy either of the two gross income tests applicable to REITs, and we could lose our REIT status.
Failure to make required distributions would subject us to additional tax. In order to qualify as a REIT, we must, among other requirements, distribute, each year, to our stockholders at least 90% of our taxable income, excluding net capital gains. To the extent that we satisfy the 90% distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our taxable income, we will be subject to federal corporate income tax on our undistributed income. In addition, we will incur a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which our distributions (or deemed distributions) in any year are less than the sum of:
To the extent we pay out in excess of 100% of our taxable income for any tax year, we may be able to carry forward such excess to subsequent years to reduce our required distributions for purposes of the 4% nondeductible excise tax in such subsequent years. We intend to pay out our income to our stockholders in a manner intended to satisfy the 90% distribution requirement. Differences in timing between the recognition of income and the related cash receipts or the effect of required debt amortization payments could require us to borrow money or sell assets to pay out enough of our taxable income to satisfy the 90% distribution requirement and to avoid corporate income tax.
We may not have sufficient cash available from operations to pay distributions to our stockholders, and, therefore, distributions may be made from borrowings. The actual amount and timing of distributions to our stockholders will be determined by our Board of Directors in its discretion and typically will depend on the amount of cash available for distribution, which will depend on items such as current and projected cash requirements, limitations on distributions imposed by law on our financing arrangements and tax considerations. As a result, we may not have sufficient cash available from operations to pay distributions as required to maintain our status as a REIT. Therefore, we may need to borrow funds to make sufficient cash distributions in order to maintain our status as a REIT, which may cause us to incur additional interest expense as a result of an increase in borrowed funds for the purpose of paying distributions.
We may be required to pay a penalty tax upon the sale of a property. The federal income tax provisions applicable to REITs provide that any gain realized by a REIT on the sale of property held as inventory or other property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business is treated as income from a "prohibited transaction" that is subject to a 100% penalty tax. Under current law, unless a sale of real property qualifies for a safe harbor, the question of whether the sale of real estate or other property constitutes the sale of property held primarily for sale to customers is generally a question of the facts and circumstances regarding a particular transaction. We intend that we and our subsidiaries will hold the interests in the real estate for investment with a view to long-term appreciation, engage in the business of acquiring and owning real estate, and make occasional sales as are consistent with our investment objectives. We do not intend to engage in prohibited transactions. We cannot assure you, however, that we will only make sales that satisfy the requirements of the safe harbors or that the IRS will not successfully assert that one or more of such sales are prohibited transactions.

We may be adversely affected if we fail to qualify as a REIT. If we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will not be allowed to deduct distributions to shareholders in computing our taxable income and will be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates and possibly increased state and local taxes. In addition, we might be barred from qualification as a REIT for the four years following the year of disqualification. The additional tax incurred at regular corporate rates would reduce significantly the cash flow available for distribution to shareholders and for debt service. Furthermore, we would no longer be required to make any distributions to our shareholders as a condition to REIT qualification. Any distributions to shareholders would be taxable as ordinary income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, although such dividend distributions to non-corporate shareholders would be subject to a maximum federal income tax rate of 20% (and potentially a Medicare tax of 3.8%), provided applicable requirements of the Code are satisfied. Furthermore, corporate shareholders may be eligible for the dividends received deduction on the distributions, subject to limitations under the Code. Additionally, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, noncorporate stockholders would no longer be able to deduct up to 20% of our dividends (other than capital gain dividends and dividends treated as qualified dividend income), as would otherwise generally be permitted for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026. always be able to comply, with the requirements to qualify as a REIT because there are few judicial and administrative interpretations of these provisions. In addition, facts and circumstances that may be beyond our control may affect our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT. We cannot assure you that new ("CARES Act"), has significantly changed the U.S. federal income taxation of U.S. businesses and their owners, including REITs and their shareholders. On
To qualify as a REIT, we must comply with certain highly technical and complex requirements. We cannot be certain we have complied, and will legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not change the tax laws significantly with respect to our qualification as a REIT or with respect to the Federal income tax consequences of qualification. We believe that we have qualified as a REIT since our inception and intend to continue to qualify as a REIT. However, we cannot assure you that we are so qualified or will remain so qualified.
There is a risk of changes in the tax law applicable to REITs. Because the IRS, the U.S. Treasury Department and Congress frequently review federal income tax legislation, we cannot predict whether, when or to what extent new federal tax laws, regulations, interpretations or rulings will be adopted. Numerous changes to the U.S. federal income tax laws are proposed on a regular basis. Any of such legislative action may prospectively or retroactively modify our tax treatment and, therefore, may adversely affect taxation of us and/or our investors. Additionally, the REIT rules are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the IRS and the U.S. Treasury Department, which may result in revisions to regulations and interpretations in addition to statutory changes. Furthermore, members of the U.S. Congress and the Biden administration have expressed intent to pass legislation to change or repeal parts of currently enacted tax law, including, in particular, legislation that will increase corporate tax rates from the current flat rate of 21%. If enacted, certain proposed changes could have an adverse impact on our business and financial results. Importantly, legislation has been proposed in several states specifically taxing REITs. If such legislation were to be enacted, our income from such states would be adversely impacted.
The act popularly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "TCJA"), as amended by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act March 27, 2020, the CARES Act, federal legislation intended to ameliorate the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, was signed into law. The CARES Act made technical corrections, or temporary modifications, to certain of the provisions of the TCJA. The individual and collective impact of the changes made by the TCJA and the CARES Act on REITs and their security holders are uncertain and may not become evident for some period of time. It is also possible that additional legislation could be enacted in the future as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which may affect the holders of our securities. Changes made by the TCJA and the CARES Act that could affect us and our shareholders include:
● temporarily reducing individual U.S. federal income tax rates on ordinary income; the highest individual U.S. federal income tax rate has been reduced from 39.6% to 37% for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026;

The CARES Act significantly modified the treatment of NOLs. Generally, a corporate taxpayer must pay tax on its net capital gain at ordinary corporate rates and may deduct capital losses only to the extent of capital gains, though excess capital losses may be carried forward indefinitely. As discussed above, under the TCJA, corporate NOLs arising in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, can only offset 80% of taxable income (before the dividends paid deduction). These NOLs can now be carried forward indefinitely instead of the previous 20-year limitation, and carrybacks of these losses are no longer permitted. NOLs arising in tax years beginning before December 31, 2017 retain the same rules, and can be carried back two years and forward 20 years. There is no taxable income limit to usage of such losses. The CARES Act repeals the above 80% limitation for taxable years beginning before January 1, 2021, and allows a five-year carryback for NOLs arising in 2018, 2019 or 2020. This NOL carryback does not apply directly to REITs, however, taxable REIT subsidiaries are eligible to carry back NOLs and may benefit from this provision. federal income tax changes will affect state and local taxation in various states and localities, which often use federal taxable income as a starting point for computing state and local tax liabilities. You are urged to consult with your tax advisor with respect to the status of legislative, regulatory, judicial or
The TCJA and the CARES Act are subject to potential amendments and technical corrections, as well as interpretations and implementing regulations by the United States Treasury Department and the IRS, any of which could lessen or increase certain impacts of the TCJA and/or the CARES Act. Some technical corrections, proposed regulations and final regulations have already been promulgated, some of which specifically address REITs. It is unclear how these U.S. administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in our securities.

We may be unable to comply with the strict income distribution requirements applicable to REITs. To maintain qualification as a REIT under the Code, a REIT must annually distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, excluding the dividends paid deduction and net capital gains. This requirement limits our ability to accumulate capital. We may not have sufficient cash or other liquid assets to meet the distribution requirements. Difficulties in meeting the distribution requirements might arise due to competing demands for our funds or to timing differences between tax reporting and cash receipts and disbursements, because income may have to be reported before cash is received, because expenses may have to be paid before a deduction is allowed, because deductions may be disallowed or limited or because the IRS may make a determination that adjusts reported income. In those situations, we might be required to borrow funds or sell properties on adverse terms in order to meet the distribution requirements and interest and penalties could apply which could adversely affect our financial condition. If we fail to make a required distribution, we could cease to be taxed as a REIT. taxed at regular corporate rates on any undistributed taxable income, including undistributed net capital gains; provided, however, that properly designated
Our taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS") is subject to special rules that may result in increased taxes. As a REIT, we must pay a 100% penalty tax on certain payments that we receive or on certain deductions taken if the economic arrangements between us and our TRS are not comparable to similar arrangements between unrelated parties. The IRS may successfully assert that the economic arrangements of any of our inter-company transactions are not comparable to similar arrangements between unrelated parties, and may assess the above 100% penalty tax or make other reallocations of income or loss. This would result in unexpected tax liability which would adversely affect our cash flows.
Notwithstanding our status as a REIT, we are subject to various federal, state and local taxes on our income and property. For example, we will be undistributed capital gains will effectively avoid taxation at the stockholder level. We may be subject to other Federal income taxes and may also have to pay some state income or franchise taxes because not all states treat REITs in the same manner as they are treated for federal income tax purposes.
We face various risks and uncertainties related to public health crises, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences may have a material adverse effect on us. We face various risks and uncertainties related to public health crises, including the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic, which has disrupted financial markets and significantly impacted worldwide economic activity. The future effects of the evolving impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as mandatory and voluntary actions taken to mitigate the public health impact of the pandemic may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. The COVID-19 pandemic and social and governmental responses to the pandemic have caused, and may continue to cause, severe economic, market and other disruptions worldwide. Although the COVID-19 pandemic and related societal and government responses have not, to date, had a material impact on our business or financial results, the extent to which COVID-19 and related actions may, in the future, impact our operations cannot be predicted with any degree of confidence. As a result, we cannot at this time predict the direct or indirect impact on us of the COVID-19 pandemic, but it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects.
Global and regional economic conditions could materially adversely affect the Company's business, results of operations, financial condition and growth. Adverse macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, slower growth or recession, tighter credit, higher interest rates and high unemployment could materially adversely affect the Company's business, results of operations, financial condition and growth. In addition, uncertainty about, or a decline in, global or regional economic conditions could have a significant impact on the Company's suppliers.
We may not be able to obtain adequate cash to fund our business. Our business requires access to adequate cash to finance our operations, distributions, capital expenditures, debt service obligations, development and redevelopment costs and property acquisition costs, if any. We expect to generate the cash to be used for these purposes primarily with operating cash flow, borrowings under secured and unsecured loans, proceeds from sales of strategically identified assets and, when market conditions permit, through the issuance of debt and equity securities from time to time. We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to fund our business, particularly if we are unable to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-lease space as leases expire according to our expectations.
-19-
We are dependent on key personnel. Our executive and other senior officers have a significant role in our success. Our ability to retain our management group or to attract suitable replacements should any members of the management group leave is dependent on the competitive nature of the employment market. The loss of services from key members of the management group or a limitation in their availability could adversely affect our financial condition and cash flow. Further, such a loss could be negatively perceived in the capital markets.
Some of our directors and officers may have conflicts of interest with respect to certain related party transactions and other business interests. Mr. Eugene W. Landy, the Founder and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, owns a 24% interest in the entity that is the landlord of the property where the Company's corporate office space is located. Effective October 1, 2019, the Company entered into a new lease for its executive offices in Freehold, New Jersey which combines the existing corporate office space with additional adjacent office space. This new lease extends our existing lease through April 30, 2027 and requires monthly lease payments of \$23,098 through April 30, 2022 and \$23,302 from May 1, 2022 through April 30, 2027. The Company is also responsible for its proportionate share of real estate taxes and common area maintenance. Mr. Eugene Landy may have a conflict of interest with respect to his obligations as our officer and/or director and his ownership interest in the landlord of the property.
We may amend our business policies without stockholder approval. Our Board of Directors determines our growth, investment, financing, capitalization, borrowing, REIT status, operations and distributions policies. Although our Board of Directors has no present intention to change or reverse any of these policies, they may be amended or revised without notice to stockholders. Accordingly, stockholders may not have control over changes in our policies. We cannot assure you that changes in our policies will serve fully the interests of all stockholders.
The market value of our preferred and common stock could decrease based on our performance and market perception and conditions. The market value of our preferred and common stock may be based primarily upon the market's perception of our growth potential and current and future cash dividends, and may be secondarily based upon the real estate market value of our underlying assets. The market price of our preferred and common stock is influenced by their respective distributions relative to market interest rates. Rising interest rates may lead potential buyers of our stock to expect a higher distribution rate, which could adversely affect the market price of our stock. In addition, rising interest rates would result in increased expense, thereby adversely affecting cash flow and our ability to service our indebtedness and pay distributions.
The market price and trading volume of our common stock may fluctuate significantly. The per-share trading price of our common stock may fluctuate. In addition, the trading volume in our common stock may fluctuate and cause significant price variations to occur. If the per-share trading price of our common stock declines significantly, investors in our common stock may be unable to resell their shares at or above their purchase price. We cannot provide any assurance that the per-share trading price of our common stock will not fluctuate or decline significantly in the future.
Some of the factors that could negatively affect our share price or result in fluctuations in the price or trading volume of our stock include:

In the past, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies following periods of volatility in the price of their common stock. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management's attention and resources, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and per-share trading price of our common stock.
The market prices and trading volumes of our Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock may fluctuate significantly. Although our Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock are listed and traded on the NYSE, the trading markets for the Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock are limited. Since the Series C Preferred Stock and the Series D Preferred Stock have no maturity dates, investors seeking liquidity may elect to sell their shares of Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock in the secondary market. If an active trading market does not exist, the market price and liquidity of the Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock may be adversely affected by such sales. Even if an active public market exists, we cannot guarantee that the market price for the Series C Preferred Stock or the Series D Preferred Stock will equal or exceed the price that investors in the Series C Preferred Stock or the Series D Preferred Stock paid for their shares.
The future issuance or sale of additional shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock could adversely affect the trading prices of our outstanding Common Stock and Preferred Stock. Future issuances or sales of substantial numbers of shares of our Common Stock or Preferred Stock in the public market, or the perception that such issuances or sales might occur, could adversely affect the per-share trading prices of our Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock. The per-share trading price of our Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock may decline significantly upon the sale or registration of additional shares of our Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock.
Future issuances of our debt securities, which would be senior to our Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock upon liquidation, or preferred equity securities which may be senior to our Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock for purposes of dividend distributions or upon liquidation, may adversely affect the per-share trading prices of our Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock. In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by issuing additional debt securities and/or additional classes or series of preferred stock. Upon liquidation, holders of our debt securities and lenders with respect to other borrowings will be entitled to receive our available assets prior to any distribution to holders of our Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock. Additionally, any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of our Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock. Any shares of preferred stock that we issue in the future could have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on dividend payments that could limit our ability to pay dividends to holders of our Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock. Any such future issuances may adversely affect the trading price of our Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock. or other transaction, or a change in management or of control of us that might involve a premium price for our common stock or preferred stock or that our
There are restrictions on the transfer of our capital stock. To maintain our qualification as a REIT under the Code, no more than 50% in value of our outstanding capital stock may be owned, actually or by attribution, by five or fewer individuals, as defined in the Code to also include certain entities, during the last half of a taxable year. Accordingly, our charter contains provisions restricting the transfer of our capital stock. These restrictions may discourage a tender offer shareholders otherwise believe to be in their best interests, and may result in the transfer of shares acquired in excess of the restrictions to a trust for the benefit of a charitable beneficiary and, as a result, the forfeiture by the acquirer of the benefits of owning the additional shares.
The dual listing of our Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE") may result in price variations that could adversely affect liquidity of the market for our Common Stock. Our common stock is listed and trades on both the NYSE and the TASE. The dual listing may result in price variations of our common stock between the two exchanges due to various factors, including the use of different currencies and the different days and hours of trading for the two exchanges. Any decrease in the trading price of our common stock in one market could cause a decrease in the trading price on the other market. In addition, the dual-listing may adversely affect liquidity and trading prices on one or both of the exchanges as a result of circumstances that may be outside of our control. For example, transfers by holders of our securities from trading on one exchange to the other could result in increases or decreases in liquidity and or trading prices on either or both of the exchanges. Holders could also seek to sell or buy our Common Stock to take advantage of any price differences between the two markets through a practice referred to as arbitrage. Any such arbitrage activity could create volatility in both the price and volume of trading of our Common Stock.
The existing mechanism for the dual listing of securities on the NYSE and the TASE may be eliminated or modified in a manner that may subject us to additional regulatory burden and additional costs. The current Israeli regulatory regime provides a mechanism for the dual-listing of securities traded on the NYSE and the TASE that does not impose any significant regulatory burden or significant costs on us. If this dual-listing regime is eliminated or modified, it may become more difficult for us to comply with the regulatory requirements, and this could result in additional costs. In such event, we may consider delisting of our common stock from the TASE. board." By preventing common stockholders from voting on the election of more than one class of directors at any annual meeting of remain a qualified REIT for Federal income tax purposes, the ownership limit may also limit the opportunity for stockholders to receive a a special meeting. We also require advance notice by common stockholders for the nomination of directors or proposals of business to be
Our earnings are dependent, in part, upon the performance of our investment portfolio. As permitted by the Code, we invest in and own securities of other REITs, which we generally limit to no more than approximately 15% of our undepreciated assets. To the extent that the value of those investments decline or those investments do not provide a return, our earnings and cash flow could be adversely affected.
We are subject to restrictions that may impede our ability to effect a change in control. Certain provisions contained in our charter and bylaws and certain provisions of Maryland law may have the effect of discouraging a third party from making an acquisition proposal for us and thereby inhibit a change in control. These provisions include the following:

We cannot assure you that we will be able to pay distributions regularly. Our ability to pay distributions in the future is dependent on our ability to operate profitably and to generate cash from our operations and the operations of our subsidiaries and is subject to limitations under our financing arrangements and Maryland law. Under the Maryland General Corporation Law, a Maryland corporation generally may not make a distribution if, after giving effect to the distribution, the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as the debts became due in the usual course of business, or the corporation's total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus, unless the charter permits otherwise, the amount that would be needed if the corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of stockholders whose preferential rights on dissolution are superior to those receiving the distribution. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to pay distributions on a regular quarterly basis in the future.
Dividends on our capital stock do not qualify for the reduced tax rates available for some dividends. Income from "qualified dividends" payable to U.S. stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates are generally subject to tax at preferential rates. Dividends payable by REITs, however, generally are not eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to qualified dividend income. Although these rules do not adversely affect our taxation or the dividends payable by us, to the extent that the preferential rates continue to apply to regular corporate qualified dividends, investors who are individuals, trusts and estates may perceive an investment in us to be relatively less attractive than an investment in the stock of a non-REIT corporation that pays dividends, which could materially and adversely affect the value of the shares of, and per share trading price of, our capital stock. It should be noted that the TCJA provides for a deduction from income for individuals, trusts and estates up to 20% of certain REIT dividends, which reduces the effective tax rate on such dividends below the effective tax rate on interest, though the deduction is generally not as favorable as the preferential rate on qualified dividends. The deduction for certain REIT dividends, unlike the favorable rate for qualified dividends, expires after 2025.
We are subject to risks arising from litigation. We may become involved in litigation. Litigation can be costly, and the results of litigation are often difficult to predict. We may not have adequate insurance coverage or contractual protection to cover costs and liability in the event we are sued, and to the extent we resort to litigation to enforce our rights, we may incur significant costs and ultimately be unsuccessful or unable to recover amounts we believe are owed to us. We may have little or no control of the timing of litigation, which presents challenges to our strategic planning.
Future terrorist attacks and military conflicts could have a material adverse effect on general economic conditions, consumer confidence and market liquidity. Among other things, it is possible that interest rates may be affected by these events. An increase in interest rates may increase our costs of borrowing, leading to a reduction in our earnings. Terrorist acts affecting our properties could also result in significant damages to, or loss of, our properties. Additionally, we may be unable to obtain adequate insurance coverage on acceptable economic terms for losses resulting from acts of terrorism. Our lenders may require that we carry terrorism insurance even if we do not believe this insurance is necessary or cost effective. Should an act of terrorism result in an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits, we could lose capital invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future revenues from a property, while remaining obligated for any mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations related to the property. Any loss of these types would adversely affect our financial condition.
Disruptions in the financial markets could affect our ability to obtain financing on reasonable terms and have other adverse effects on us and the market price of our capital stock. Uncertainty in the stock and credit markets may negatively impact our ability to access additional financing at reasonable terms, which may negatively affect our ability to acquire properties and otherwise pursue our investment strategy. A prolonged downturn in the stock or credit markets may cause us to seek alternative sources of potentially less attractive financing, and may require us to adjust our investment strategy accordingly. These types of events in the stock and credit markets may make it more difficult or costly for us to raise capital through the issuance of the common stock, preferred stock or debt securities. The potential disruptions in the financial markets may have a material adverse effect on the market value of the common stock and preferred stock, or the economy in general. In addition, the national and local economic climate, including that of the energy-market dependent Marcellus and Utica Shale regions, may be adversely impacted by, among other factors, potential restrictions on drilling, plant closings and industry slowdowns, which may have a material adverse effect on the return we receive on our properties and investments, as well as other unknown adverse effects on us.

We face risks relating to cybersecurity attacks which could adversely affect our business, cause loss of confidential information and disrupt operations. We rely extensively on information technology to process transactions and manage our business. In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and store sensitive data, including our business information and that of our tenants, clients, vendors and employees on our network. This data is hosted on internal, as well as external, computer systems. Our external systems are hosted by third-party service providers that may have access to such information in connection with providing necessary information technology and security and other business services to us. This information may include personally identifiable information such as social security numbers, banking information and credit card information. We employ a number of measures to prevent, detect and mitigate potential breaches or disclosure of this confidential information. We have established a Cybersecurity Subcommittee of our Audit Committee to review and provide high level guidance on cybersecurity related issues of importance to the Company. We also maintain cyber risk insurance to provide some coverage for certain risks arising out of data and network breaches. While we continue to improve our cybersecurity and take measures to protect our business, we and our third-party service providers may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers (including through malware, ransomware, computer viruses, and email phishing schemes) or breached due to employee error, malfeasance, fire, flood or other physical event, or other disruptions. Any such breach or disruption could compromise the confidential information of our employees, customers and vendors to the extent such information exists on our systems or on the systems of third-party providers. Such an incident could result in potential liability or a loss of confidence and legal claims or proceedings; damage our reputation, competitiveness, stock price and long-term value; increase remediation, cybersecurity protection and insurance premium costs; disrupt and affect our business operations; or have material adverse effects on our business. Michigan, Maryland, Alabama and South Carolina. The Company also has an ownership interest in and operates one community in Florida through its joint
We are dependent on continuous access to the Internet to use our cloud-based applications. Damage or failure to our information technology systems, including as a result of any of the reasons described above, could adversely affect our results of operations as we may incur significant costs or data loss. We continually assess new and enhanced information technology solutions to manage risk of system failure or interruption.
We face risks relating to expanding use of social media mediums. The use of social media could cause us to suffer brand damage or information leakage. Negative posts or comments about us or our properties on any social networking website could damage our, or our properties' reputations. In addition, employees or others might disclose non-public sensitive information relating to our business through external media channels. The continuing evolution of social media may present us with new challenges and risks. The considerable increase in the use of social media over recent years has greatly expanded the potential scope and scale, and increased the rapidity of the dissemination of negative publicity that could be generated by negative posts and comments.

UMH Properties, Inc. is engaged in the ownership and operation of manufactured home communities. As of December 31, 2021, the Company owned 127 manufactured home communities containing approximately 24,000 developed sites, located in New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana, venture. The rents collectible from the land in our communities ultimately depend on the value of the home and land. Therefore, fewer but more expensive homes can actually produce the same or greater rents. There is a long-term trend toward larger manufactured homes. Existing manufactured home communities designed for older manufactured homes must be modified to accommodate modern, wider and longer manufactured homes. These changes may decrease the number of homes that may be accommodated in a manufactured home community. For this reason, the number of developed sites operated by the Company is subject to change, and the number of developed sites listed is always an approximate number. The following table sets forth certain information concerning the Company's real estate investments as of December 31, 2021.

The Company operated manufactured home properties with an approximate cost of \$1.2 billion as of December 31, 2021. These properties consist of 127 separate manufactured home communities and related improvements (excluding the Sebring Square community in Florida acquired in December 2021, which is operated by the Company and owned by the Company's joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate).

The Company has mortgages on many of its properties. The maturity dates of these mortgages range from 2022 to 2031, with a weighted average term of 5.2 years. Interest on these mortgages is payable at fixed rates ranging from 2.62% to 6.35%. The weighted average interest rate on our mortgages, not including the effect of unamortized debt issuance costs, was approximately 3.8% at both December 31, 2021 and 2020. The aggregate balances of these mortgages, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, totaled \$452.6 million and \$471.5 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. (For additional information, see Part IV, Item 15(a) (1) (vi), Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Loans and Mortgages Payable).
In December 2021, the Company and Nuveen Real Estate ("Nuveen Real Estate"), a part of Nuveen Global Investments LLC, established a joint venture for the purpose of acquiring manufactured housing and/or recreational vehicle communities that are under development and/or newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. Nuveen Real Estate and the Company agreed to initially fund up to \$70 million of equity capital for acquisitions during a 24-month commitment period, with Nuveen Real Estate having the option, subject to certain conditions, to elect to increase the parties' total commitments by up to an additional \$100 million and to extend the commitment period for up to an additional four years. Committed capital will be funded 60% by Nuveen Real Estate and 40% by the Company on a parity basis. The Company serves as managing member of the joint venture and is responsible for day-to-day operations of the joint venture and management of its properties, subject to obtaining approval of Nuveen Real Estate for major decisions (including investments, dispositions, financings, major capital expenditures and annual budgets). The Company receives property management and other fees from the joint venture. On December 22, 2021, the joint venture closed on the acquisition of a newly developed all-age, manufactured home community named Sebring Square, located in Sebring, Florida, for a total purchase price of \$22.2 million. This community contains 219 developed homesites situated on approximately 39 acres.

Purchases under the Repurchase Program were permitted to be made using a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or block trades, or by any combination of such methods, in accordance with applicable insider trading and other securities laws and regulations. The size, scope and timing of any purchases would be based on business, market and other conditions and factors, including price, regulatory and contractual requirements or consents, and capital availability.

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the historical Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
The Company is a Maryland corporation that operates as a self-administered, self-managed REIT with headquarters in Freehold, New Jersey. The Company's primary business is the ownership and operation of manufactured home communities, which includes leasing manufactured home spaces on an annual or month-to-month basis to residents. The Company also leases manufactured homes to residents and, through its wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary, S&F, sells and finances the sale of manufactured homes to residents and prospective residents of our communities and for placement on customers' privately-owned land.
As of December 31, 2021, we owned and operated 127 manufactured home communities containing approximately 24,000 developed homesites. These communities are located in New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana, Michigan, Maryland, Alabama and South Carolina. UMH has continued to execute our growth strategy of purchasing well-located communities in our target markets, including the energy-rich Marcellus and Utica Shale regions. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we purchased three manufactured home communities, located in Alabama, Ohio and South Carolina, for an aggregate purchase price of \$18.3 million. These acquisitions added approximately 543 developed homesites to our portfolio. The Company also operates one community in Florida owned by the Company's joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate that was formed in December 2021.
The Company earns income from the operation of its manufactured home communities, leasing of manufactured homesites, the rental of manufactured homes, the sale and finance of manufactured homes and the brokering of home sales and revenue under cable service agreements as well as from appreciation in the values of the manufactured home communities and vacant land owned by the Company. In addition, the Company receives property management and other fees from its joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate. Management views the Company as a single segment based on its method of internal reporting in addition to its allocation of capital and resources. The Company also invests in equity securities of other REITs which the Company generally limits to no more than approximately 15% of its undepreciated assets.
Occupancy in our properties, as well as our ability to increase rental rates, directly affects revenues. In 2021, total income increased 14% from the prior year due to the acquisition and rental programs, rent increases and the growth of our sales business and Community NOI (as defined below) increased 13% from the prior year. Overall occupancy was 86.0% and 85.0% at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Overall occupancy includes communities acquired in 2021 with an average occupancy of 59%. Same property occupancy, which includes communities owned and operated as of January 1, 2020, increased from 85.4% at December 31, 2020 to 87.1% at December 31, 2021. (Unless expressly indicated, information in this report with respect to the Company's properties, including financial and operating results for the year ended December 31, 2021, does not include the property owned by the Company's joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate.) allow the resident to obtain the efficiencies of factory-built housing and the amenities of community living for less than the cost of other forms of affordable
Sales of manufactured homes performed well during 2021, increasing by 34% year-over-year. Demand for quality affordable housing remains healthy. Conventional single-family home prices continue their rise supported by low inventories and increasing sales. As for-sale inventory remains limited, a large share of housing demand will be looking at alternative forms of housing. Our property type offers substantial comparative value that should result in increased demand.
The macro-economic environment and current housing fundamentals continue to favor home rentals. Rental homes in a manufactured home community housing. We continue to see strong demand for rental homes. During 2021, our portfolio of rental homes increased by 454 homes. Occupied rental homes represent approximately 40.2% of total occupied sites. Occupancy in rental homes continues to be strong and is at 95.5% as of December 31, 2021. We compare favorably with other types of rental housing, including apartments, and we will continue to allocate capital to rental home purchases, as demand dictates.

The Company holds a portfolio of marketable equity securities of other REITs with a fair value of \$113.7 million at December 31, 2021, representing diversification, liquidity and income, and serves as a proxy for real estate when more favorable risk adjusted returns are not available. As of December 31, 2021, 2% of the Company's portfolio consisted of REIT preferred stocks and 98% consisted of REIT common stocks.
7.2% of our undepreciated assets (total assets excluding accumulated depreciation). The REIT securities portfolio provides the Company with additional The Company invests in these REIT securities and, from time to time, may use margin debt when an adequate yield spread can be obtained. The Company's weighted average yield on the securities portfolio was approximately 4.4% at December 31, 2021. At December 31, 2021, the Company had unrealized losses of \$14.3 million in its REIT securities portfolio. During 2021, the Company sold positions in securities, generating realized gains of 2.3 million. It is our intent to hold these securities for investment on a long-term basis.
The Company continues to strengthen its balance sheet. During 2021, the Company raised approximately \$9.8 million in new capital through the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan ("DRIP"). During the year ended December 31, 2021, through an At-the-Market Sale Program for our Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock (the "2020 Preferred ATM Program"), the Company issued and sold a total of 2.2 million shares of our Series D Preferred Stock, generating gross proceeds of \$54.1 million and net proceeds of \$53.2 million, after offering expenses.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, through an At-the-Market Sale Program for our Common Stock (the "2020 Common ATM Program"), that we commenced in June 2020 and an At-the-Market Sale Program (the "2021 Common ATM Program") that we commenced in August 2021, the Company issued and sold a total of 8.2 million shares of our Common Stock, generating gross proceeds of \$182.0 million and net proceeds of \$179.1 million, after offering expenses.
The Company believes that its capital structure, which allows for the ownership of assets using a balanced combination of equity obtained through the issuance of common stock, preferred stock and debt, will enhance shareholder returns as the properties appreciate over time.
At December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately \$116.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and \$50 million available on our credit facility, with financing of home sales and the purchase of inventory and \$15 million available on our line of credit secured by rental homes and rental homes leases. Subsequent to year end, the Company completed an offering to investors in Israel of \$102.7 million principal amount of its 4.72% Series A Bonds due February 28, 2027.
an additional \$50 million potentially available pursuant to an accordion feature. We also had \$31.6 million available on our revolving lines of credit for the The Company intends to continue to increase its real estate investments. Our business plan includes acquiring communities that over time are expected to yield in excess of our cost of funds and then making physical improvements, including adding rental homes onto otherwise vacant sites. In 2020 and 2021, we added a total of five manufactured home communities to our portfolio, encompassing approximately 850 developed sites. These manufactured home communities were acquired with an average occupancy rate of 61%. The Company will utilize the rental home program to seek to increase occupancy rates and improve operating results at these communities. In addition, on behalf of our recently-formed joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate, we will seek opportunities to acquire manufactured home communities that are under development and/or newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. There is no guarantee that acquisition opportunities will continue to materialize or that the Company will be able to take advantage of such opportunities. The growth of our real estate portfolio and success of the joint venture depends on the availability of suitable properties which meet the Company's investment criteria and appropriate financing. Competition in the market areas in which the Company operates is significant and affects acquisitions, occupancy levels, rental rates and operating expenses of certain properties.

Community NOI increased from \$80.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to \$91.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, or 13%. This increase was primarily due to the acquisitions during 2020 and 2021 and an increase in rental rates, occupancy and rental homes. The operating expense ratio communities have deferred maintenance requiring higher than normal expenditures in the first few years of ownership. In addition, expansions of our communities may require investments in infrastructure before we can generate revenue from additional sites. Because most of the community expenses consist of fixed costs, as increasing costs due to inflation and changing prices have generally not had a material effect on revenues and income from continuing operations.
Sales of manufactured homes increased from \$20.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to \$27.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, or 34%. The total number of homes sold was 370 homes in 2021 as compared to 323 homes in 2020. There were 182 new homes sold in 2021 as compared to 140 in 2020. The Company's average sales price was approximately \$73,000 and \$63,000 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Cost of sales of manufactured homes increased from \$14.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to \$20.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, or 39%. The gross profit percentage was 26% and 29% for 2021 and 2020, respectively. Selling expenses decreased from \$4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to \$4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, or 3%. Gain from the sales operations (defined as sales of manufactured homes less cost of sales of manufactured homes less selling expenses less interest on the financing of inventory) increased from a gain of \$768,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020 to a gain of \$2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Many of the costs associated with sales, such as rent, salaries, and to an extent, advertising and promotion, are fixed. The National Association of Realtors reported that in December 2021, sales of existing homes grew 9% from December 2020. Home prices have continued their rise as fewer sellers are listing homes and inventories decline. With the passage of time, the inherent relative affordability of our property type becomes more and more apparent, which should result in increased demand. The Company continues to be optimistic about future sales and rental prospects given the fundamental need for affordable housing. The Company believes that sales of new homes produce new revenue and represent an investment in the upgrading of our communities. stock-based compensation, including special restricted stock grants for the 2020 groundbreaking Fannie Mae financing.

General and administrative expenses increased from \$11.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to \$14.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, or 27%. These increases were due to an increase in personnel costs, including an increase in the bonus accrual based on FFO metrics and an increase in excluding non-recurring expenses, as a percentage of gross revenue (total income plus interest, dividend and other income) was 6.2% and 6.4% at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Depreciation expense increased from \$41.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to \$45.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, or 8%. This increase was primarily due to the acquisitions and the increase in rental homes during 2021 and 2020.
Interest income increased from \$2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to \$3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, or 15%. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of notes receivable from \$40.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to \$48.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Dividend income decreased from \$5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to \$5.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, or 11%. This decrease was primarily due to reduced dividends from our securities holdings. Dividends received from our marketable securities investments were at a weighted average yield of approximately 4.4% and 4.7% at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Gain on sales of marketable securities amounted to \$2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Increase (decrease) in fair value of marketable securities increased from an unrealized loss of \$14.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to an unrealized gain of \$25.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Interest expense, including amortization of financing costs, increased from \$18.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 to \$19.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, or 5%. The average balance of mortgages payable was approximately \$462.0 million during 2021 as compared to approximately December 31, 2021 and 2020.
Rental and related income increased from \$128.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 to \$143.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, or 11%. This increase was due to the acquisitions during 2019 and 2020, as well as an increase in rental rates, same property occupancy and additional rental homes. During 2020, the Company raised rental rates by 3% to 4% at most communities. Rent increases vary depending on overall market conditions and demand. Occupancy, as well as the ability to increase rental rates, directly affects revenues. The Company has been acquiring communities with vacant sites that can potentially be occupied and earn income in the future. Overall occupancy was 85.0% and 82.0% at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Overall occupancy includes communities acquired in 2020 and 2019, which had an average occupancy of 64% and 62%, respectively, at the time of acquisition. Same property occupancy increased from 83.6% at December 31, 2019 to 86.8% at December 31, 2020. The same property occupancy rate is exclusive of the sites at Memphis Blues, which is under redevelopment due to a flood in 2011. As of December 31, 2020, we had approximately 8,300 rental homes with an occupancy of 94.6%.

Community NOI increased from \$66.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 to \$80.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, or 20%. This increase was primarily due to the acquisitions during 2019 and 2020 and an increase in rental rates, occupancy and rental homes. The operating expense ratio (defined as community operating expenses divided by rental and related income) was 47.5% and 44.1%, excluding non-recurring operating expenses, for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively.
Sales of manufactured homes increased from \$18.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 to \$20.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, or 13%.

Many of the costs associated with sales, such as rent, salaries, and to an extent, advertising and promotion, are fixed. The National Association of Realtors reported that in December 2020, sales of existing homes grew 22% from December 2019.
General and administrative expenses increased from \$10 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 to \$11.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, or 10%. These increases were due to an increase in personnel costs, including an increase in incentive compensation based on FFO metrics and an increase in matching contributions associated with our 401(k) Plan. General and administrative expenses, excluding non-recurring expenses, as a percentage of gross revenue (total income plus interest, dividend and other income) was 6.4% and 6.3% at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Depreciation expense increased from \$36.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 to \$41.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, or 13%. This increase was primarily due to the acquisitions and the increase in rental homes during 2020 and 2019.

Dividend income decreased from \$7.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 to \$5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, or 24%. This decrease was primarily due to reduced dividends from our securities holdings, as many REITs reduced their dividends in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Dividends received from our marketable securities investments were at a weighted average yield of approximately 4.7% and 6.3% at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Increase (decrease) in fair value of marketable securities decreased from an unrealized gain of \$14.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 to an unrealized loss of \$14.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. This decrease was due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on prices in the securities market. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had total net unrealized losses of \$39.4 million in its REIT securities portfolio.
Interest expense, including amortization of financing costs, increased from \$17.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 to \$18.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, or 3%. This increase was primarily due to the \$106 million Fannie Mae credit facility we entered into during August 2020. The average balance of mortgages payable was approximately \$421.5 million during 2020 as compared to approximately \$352.4 million during 2019. The weighted average interest rate on mortgages, not including the effect of unamortized debt issuance costs, was 3.8% at December 31, 2020 as compared to 4.1% at December 31, 2019.
In addition to the results reported in accordance with GAAP, management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations include certain non-GAAP financial measures that in management's view of the business we believe are meaningful as they allow the investor the ability to understand key operating details of our business both with and without regard to certain accounting conventions or items that may not always be indicative of recurring annual cash flow of the portfolio. These non-GAAP financial measures as determined and presented by us may not be comparable to related or similarly titled measures reported by other companies, and include Community Net Operating Income ("Community NOI"), Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders ("FFO") and Normalized Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders ("Normalized FFO"). We define Community NOI as rental and related income less community operating expenses such as real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Community NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indicator of our financial
community salaries, utilities, insurance and other expenses. We believe that Community NOI is helpful to investors and analysts as a direct measure of the actual operating results of our manufactured home communities, rather than our Company overall. Community NOI should not be considered a substitute for the reported performance, or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity; nor is it indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions.
The Company's Community NOI is calculated as follows (in thousands):
| 2021 | 2020 | 2019 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rental and Related Income | \$ 159,010 |
\$ 143,344 |
\$ 128,611 |
| Community Operating Expenses | (68,046) | (63,175) | (61,708) |
| Community NOI | \$ 90,964 |
\$ 80,169 |
\$ 66,903 |
We assess and measure our overall operating results based upon FFO an industry performance measure which management believes is a useful indicator of our operating performance. FFO is used by industry analysts and investors as a supplemental operating performance measure of a REIT. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders, as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP"), excluding extraordinary items, as defined under U.S. GAAP, gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated real estate assets, impairment charges related to depreciable real estate assets, and the change in the fair value of marketable securities plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization. Included in the NAREIT FFO White Paper - 2018 Restatement, is an option pertaining to assets incidental to our main business in the calculation of NAREIT FFO to make an election to include or exclude gains and losses on the sale of these assets, such as marketable equity securities, and include or exclude mark-to-market changes in the value recognized on these marketable equity securities. In conjunction with the adoption of the FFO White Paper - 2018 Restatement, for all periods presented, we have elected to exclude the change in the fair value of marketable securities from our FFO calculation. NAREIT created FFO as a non-U.S. GAAP supplemental measure of REIT operating performance. We define Normalized Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders ("Normalized FFO"), as FFO, excluding gains and losses realized on marketable securities investments and certain one-time charges. FFO and Normalized FFO should be considered as supplemental measures of operating performance used by REITs. FFO and Normalized FFO exclude historical cost depreciation as an expense and may facilitate the comparison of REITs which have a different cost basis. However, other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate FFO and Normalized FFO and, accordingly, our FFO and Normalized FFO may not be comparable to all other REITs. The items excluded from FFO and Normalized FFO are significant components in understanding the Company's financial performance.

Specifically, the Company may sell marketable securities from its investment portfolio, borrow on its unsecured credit facility or lines of credit, finance and refinance its properties, and/or raise capital through the DRIP and capital markets. In order to provide financial flexibility to opportunistically access the capital markets, the Company has implemented At-the-Market Sales Programs for both our common and preferred stock. The 2021 Common ATM Program, commenced in August 2021, allowed the Company to offer and sell shares of the Company's common stock, having an aggregate sales price of up to \$100 million from time to time through the Distribution Agents for the 2021 Common ATM Program. All shares of Common Stock available to be sold under the 2021 Common ATM Program have been sold. The Company intends to commence a new Atthe-Market Sales Program for its common stock during the first quarter of 2022. The Company's 2020 Preferred ATM Program allows the Company to offer and sell shares of the Company's Series C Preferred Stock and/or Series D Preferred Stock, having an aggregate sales price of up to \$100 million from time to time.

The Company intends to continue to increase its real estate investments. Our business plan includes acquiring communities that over time are expected to yield in excess of our cost of funds and then investing in physical improvements, including adding rental homes onto otherwise vacant sites. In addition, on behalf of our recently-formed joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate, we will seek opportunities to acquire manufactured home communities that are under development and/or newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. There is no guarantee that any of these additional opportunities will materialize or that the Company will be able to take advantage of such opportunities. The growth of our real estate portfolio and success of our joint venture depends on the availability of suitable properties which meet the Company's investment criteria and appropriate financing. Competition in the market areas in which the Company operates is significant. To the extent that funds or appropriate communities are not available, fewer acquisitions will be made. the Company issued and sold a total of 2.2 million shares of our Series D Preferred Stock generating gross proceeds of \$54.1 million and net proceeds after of Series C Preferred Stock and/or Series D Preferred Stock remained available for sale under the 2020 Preferred ATM Program.

Subsequent to year end, the Company completed an offering to investors in Israel of \$102.7 million of its new unsecured 4.72% Series A Bonds due February 28, 2027. The Company believes that cash on hand, funds generated from operations, the DRIP and capital markets, the funds available on the lines of credit, together with the ability to finance and refinance its properties will provide sufficient funds to adequately meet its obligations over the next several years.
The Company's focus is on real estate investments. The Company has historically financed purchases of real estate primarily through mortgages. During 2021, total investment property, including rental homes, increased 9% or \$96.6 million. The Company made acquisitions of three manufactured home communities totaling 543 developed sites at an aggregate purchase price of \$18.3 million. These acquisitions were funded by the use of our unsecured credit facility. See Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our acquisitions and Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for related debt transactions. In addition, in December 2021, the Company's joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate acquired one newly-developed community in Florida containing 219 developed homesites, for a total purchase price of \$22.2 million, 40% of which was funded by the Company. The Company continues to evaluate acquisition opportunities. The funds for these acquisitions (including the Company's 40% share of acquisition costs that may be incurred by the joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate) may come from bank borrowings, proceeds from the DRIP, and private placements or public offerings of debt, common or preferred stock, including under a new ATM Program for the Company's common stock expected to be commenced in the first quarter of 2022 or the 2020 Preferred ATM Program. To the extent that funds or appropriate properties are not available, fewer acquisitions will be made.

The following discussion is intended to provide certain information regarding the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and management's efforts to respond to those impacts.

residents benefitted from the federal government's funding of the Emergency Rental Assistance Programs that were enacted in each state.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain and dependent on future developments, including the possible emergence of new variants of the original virus and the ongoing roll-out of vaccines and their efficacy. We will continue to monitor these rapidly evolving developments and respond in the best interests of our employees, residents and shareholders. At this time, we believe that the COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences will not have a material adverse effect on our operations. The discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Company's consolidated financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Significant accounting policies are defined as those that involve significant judgment and potentially could result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. Management believes the following critical accounting policy is affected by our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements. For a detailed description of this and other accounting policies, see Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K.
The Company applies Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 360-10, Property, Plant & Equipment ("ASC 360-10") to measure impairment in real estate investments. The Company's primary indicator of potential impairment is based on net operating income trends year over year. Rental properties are individually evaluated for impairment when conditions exist which may indicate that it is probable that the sum of expected future cash flows (on an undiscounted basis without interest) from a rental property is less than the carrying value under its historical net cost basis. These expected future cash flows consider factors such as future operating income, trends and prospects as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. Upon determination that an other than temporary impairment has occurred, rental properties are reduced to their fair value. For properties to be disposed of, an impairment loss is recognized when the fair value of the property, less the estimated cost to sell, is less than the carrying amount of the property measured at the time there is a commitment to sell the property and/or it is actively being marketed for sale. A property to be disposed of is reported at the lower of its carrying amount or its estimated fair value, less its cost to sell. Subsequent to the date that a property is held for disposition, depreciation expense is not recorded. factors that are beyond the Company's control contribute to interest rate risk. The Company mitigates this risk by maintaining prudent amounts of leverage,
The Company conducted a comprehensive review of all real estate asset classes in accordance with ASC 360-10-35-21, which indicates that asset values should be analyzed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be fully recoverable. The process entailed the analysis of property for instances where the net book value exceeds the estimated fair value. In accordance with ASC 360-10-35-17, an impairment loss shall be recognized if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. The Company utilizes the experience and knowledge of its internal valuation team to derive certain assumptions used to determine an operating property's cash flow. Such assumptions include lease-up rates, rental rates, rental growth rates, and capital expenditures. The Company reviewed its operating properties in light of the requirements of ASC 360-10 and determined that, as of December 31, 2021, the undiscounted cash flows over the holding period for these properties were in excess of their carrying values and, therefore, no impairment charges were required.
See Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
As of December 31, 2021, we were exposed to risks associated with adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. The Company's principal market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The Company's future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market interest rates. Many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other minimizing capital costs and interest expense while continuously evaluating all available debt and equity resources and following established risk management policies and procedures, which may include the periodic use of derivatives. The Company's primary strategy in entering into derivative contracts is to minimize the variability that changes in interest rates could have on its future cash flows. The Company generally employs derivative instruments that effectively convert a portion of its variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
The following table sets forth information as of December 31, 2021, concerning the Company's mortgages and loans payable, including principal cash flow by scheduled maturity, weighted average interest rates and estimated fair value (in thousands).

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of UMH Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related consolidated statements of income (loss), shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes and schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a)(2)(i) (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.

assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

financial statements, the Company's investment property and equipment is evaluated annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicates possible impairment.
At December 31, 2021, the Company's net consolidated investment property and equipment totaled \$913 million. As discussed in note 2 to the consolidated The Company reviews investment properties for indicators of impairment through an analysis of net operating income trends period over period. In the event that any impairment indicators are present, the Company undertakes additional analyses utilizing expected undiscounted future cash flows for identified investment properties considering factors such as future operating income, trends and prospects as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company's net operating income trend analysis did not result in investment properties requiring undiscounted cash flow analysis. Therefore, no indicators of impairment were identified as a result of the Company's review for impairment.
Auditing management's evaluation of investment property and equipment for impairment was complex and highly subjective due to the high degree of subjective auditor judgment necessary in evaluating management's identification of indicators of potential impairment.
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of controls related to the Company's process for evaluating investment in real estate for impairment, including management's review of the operations and financial performance of investment properties.
To test the Company's process for evaluating investment property and equipment for impairment, we performed audit procedures that included, among others, assessing the methodologies, evaluating the significant assumptions of the matters discussed above and testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used by the Company in its analysis.

UMH Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and its subsidiaries (the "Company") operates as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") deriving its income primarily from real estate rental operations. The Company, through its wholly-owned taxable subsidiary, UMH Sales and Finance, Inc. ("S&F"), also sells manufactured homes to residents and prospective residents in our communities. Inherent in the operations of manufactured home communities are site vacancies. S&F was established to fill these vacancies and enhance the value of the communities. The Company also owns a portfolio of REIT securities which the Company generally limits to no more than approximately 15% of its undepreciated assets (which is the Company's total assets excluding accumulated depreciation). Management views the Company as a single segment based on its method of internal reporting in addition to its allocation of capital and resources. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national
emergency with respect to COVID-19. The Company's 127 residential communities remain open and operational. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic did not significantly impact the Company's operating results for the year ended December 31, 2021. However, the future effects of the evolving impact of the COVID-19 pandemic are uncertain.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company owned and operated 127 manufactured home communities containing approximately 24,000 developed sites. These communities are located in New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana, Michigan, Maryland, Alabama and South Carolina.
These manufactured home communities are listed by trade names as follows:

In addition to the manufactured home communities owned by the Company listed above, the Company's recently-formed joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate owns a newly-developed manufactured home community named Sebring Square, located in Sebring, Florida, which was acquired in December 2021.
The Company prepares its financial statements under the accrual basis of accounting, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company's subsidiaries are all 100% wholly-owned. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include all of these subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
A subsidiary of the Company is the managing member of the Company's joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the consolidated balance sheets and revenue and expenses for the years then ended. These estimates and assumptions include the allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventory, depreciation, valuation of securities, accounting for land development, reserves and accruals, and stock compensation expense. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation for Sites and Buildings is computed principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (ranging from 15 to 27.5 years). Depreciation of Improvements to Sites and Buildings, Rental Homes and Equipment and Vehicles is computed principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (ranging from 3 to 27.5 years). Land Development Costs are not depreciated until they are put in use, at which time they are capitalized as Site and Land Improvements. Interest Expense pertaining to Land Development Costs are capitalized. Maintenance and Repairs are charged to expense as incurred and improvements are capitalized. The Company uses its professional judgement in determining whether such costs meet the criteria for capitalization or must be expensed as incurred. The Company's business plan includes the purchase of value-add communities, redevelopment, development and expansion of communities. During 2021 and 2020, we acquired 5 value-add communities containing 853 sites and developed 271 expansions sites. The Company capitalizes payroll for those individuals responsible for and who spend their time on the execution and supervision of development activities and capital projects. Salaries and benefits capitalized to land development were approximately \$2.6 and \$2.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The costs and related accumulated depreciation of property sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the financial statements and any gain or loss is reflected in the current year's results of operations. The Company applies Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 360-10, Property, Plant & other factors. Upon determination that an other than temporary impairment has occurred, rental properties are reduced to their fair value. For properties to be its carrying amount or its estimated fair value, less its cost to sell. Subsequent to the date that a property is held for disposition, depreciation expense is not
Equipment ("ASC 360-10") to measure impairment in real estate investments. The Company's primary indicator of potential impairment is based on net operating income trends year over year. Rental properties are individually evaluated for impairment when conditions exist which may indicate that it is probable that the sum of expected future cash flows (on an undiscounted basis without interest) from a rental property is less than the carrying value under its historical net cost basis. These expected future cash flows consider factors such as future operating income, trends and prospects as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and disposed of, an impairment loss is recognized when the fair value of the property, less the estimated cost to sell, is less than the carrying amount of the property measured at the time there is a commitment to sell the property and/or it is actively being marketed for sale. A property to be disposed of is reported at the lower of recorded. The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805") and allocates the purchase price of the homes. The Company allocates the purchase price of an acquired property generally determined by internal evaluation as well as third-party appraisal of the
The Company conducted a comprehensive review of all real estate asset classes in accordance with ASC 360-10-35-21. The process entailed the analysis of property for instances where the net book value exceeded the estimated fair value. The Company utilizes the experience and knowledge of its internal valuation team to derive certain assumptions used to determine an operating property's cash flow. Such assumptions include lease-up rates, rental rates, rental growth rates, and capital expenditures. The Company reviewed its operating properties in light of the requirements of ASC 360-10 and determined that, as of December 31, 2021, the undiscounted cash flows over the expected holding period for these properties were in excess of their carrying values and, therefore, no impairment charges were required.
property based upon the fair value of the assets acquired, which generally consist of land, site and land improvements, buildings and improvements and rental property obtained in conjunction with the purchase.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-01, "Business Combinations (Topic 805), Clarifying the Definition of a Business". ASU 2017-01 seeks to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, intangible assets and consolidation. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The amendments should be applied prospectively on or after the effective dates. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2017, on a prospective basis. The Company evaluated its acquisitions and has determined that its acquisitions of manufactured home communities during 2020 and 2021 should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets. As such, transaction costs, primarily consisting of broker fees, transfer taxes, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional and consulting fees, related to acquisitions are capitalized as part of the cost of the acquisitions, which is then subject to a purchase price allocation based on relative fair value. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2017-01, the Company's acquisitions were considered an acquisition of a business and therefore, the acquisition costs were expensed. 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures. The Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and
The Company accounts for its investment in its joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate under the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC financial decisions of the joint venture. Under the equity method of accounting, the cost of an investment is adjusted for the Company's share of the equity in net income or loss from the date of acquisition, reduced by distributions received and increased by contributions made. The income or loss is allocated in accordance with the provisions of the operating agreement. The carrying value of the investment in joint venture is reviewed for other than temporary impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate a possible impairment. Financial condition, operational performance, and other economic trends are among the factors that are considered in evaluation of the existence of impairment indicators (See Note 5). Inventory of manufactured homes is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value and is determined by the specific identification method. All
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and investments with an original maturity of three months or less. The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts in amounts that may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts in the past. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents approximates their current carrying amounts since all such items are short-term in nature.
Investments in marketable securities consist of marketable common and preferred stock securities of other REITs, which the Company generally limits to no more than approximately 15% of its undepreciated assets. These marketable securities are all publicly traded and purchased on the open market, through private transactions or through dividend reinvestment plans. The Company normally holds REIT securities on a long-term basis and has the ability and intent to hold securities to recovery, therefore as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, gains or losses on the sale of securities are based on average cost and are accounted for on a trade date basis.
inventory is considered finished goods.

The Company's accounts, notes and other receivables are stated at their outstanding balance and reduced by an allowance for uncollectible accounts. The Company evaluates the recoverability of its receivables whenever events occur or there are changes in circumstances such that management believes it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the notes receivable or lease agreements. The collectability of notes receivable is measured based on the present value of the expected future cash flow discounted at the notes receivable effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the notes receivable is collateral dependent. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the reserves for uncollectible accounts, notes and other receivables were \$2.1 million and \$1.6 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 the provisions for uncollectible notes and other receivables were \$1.2 million, \$1.5 million and \$1.4 million, respectively. Charge-offs and other adjustments related to repossessed homes for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 amounted to \$712,000, \$1.2 million and \$1.2 million, respectively. In 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." See "Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements" below for additional information regarding the adoption of this ASU. The Company's notes receivable primarily consists of installment loans collateralized by manufactured homes with principal and interest payable use assets and corresponding lease liabilities of \$3.5 million are included in Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets and Accrued Liabilities and Deposits on the
monthly. The weighted average interest rate on these loans is approximately 6.9% and the average maturity is approximately 9 years.
Costs incurred in connection with obtaining mortgages and other financings and refinancings are deferred and presented in the consolidated balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis which approximates the effective interest method over the term of the related obligations, and included as a component of interest expense. Unamortized costs are charged to expense upon prepayment of the obligation. Upon amendment of the line of credit or refinancing of mortgage debt, unamortized deferred financing fees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 470-50-40, Modifications and Extinguishments. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, accumulated amortization amounted to \$7.2 million and \$6.2 million, respectively. The Company estimates that aggregate amortization expense will be approximately \$1.0 million for 2022, \$722,000 for 2023, \$676,000 for 2024, \$543,000 for 2025, \$397,000 for 2026 and \$978,000 thereafter.
We account for our leases under ASC 842, "Leases." Our primary source of revenue is generated from lease agreements for our sites and homes, where we are the lessor. These leases are generally for one-year or month-to-month terms and renewable by mutual agreement from us and the resident, or in some cases, as provided by jurisdictional statute.
We are the lessee in other arrangements, primarily for our corporate office and a ground lease at one community. As of December 31, 2021, the right-of-Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" (ASC 606). For transactions in the scope of ASC 606, we recognize revenue when control of goods or services transfers to the customer, in the amount that we expect to receive for the transfer of goods or provision of services.
Rental and related income is generated from lease agreements for our sites and homes. The lease component of these agreements is accounted for under ASC 842 "Leases." The non-lease components of our lease agreements consist primarily of utility reimbursements, which are accounted for with the site lease as a single lease under ASC 842.
Revenue from sales of manufactured homes is recognized in accordance with the core principle of ASC 606, at the time of closing when control of the home transfers to the customer. After closing of the sale transaction, we generally have no remaining performance obligation.
Interest income is primarily from notes receivables for the previous sales of manufactured homes. Interest income on these receivables is accrued based on the unpaid principal balances of the underlying loans on a level yield basis over the life of the loans.
Dividend income and gain (loss) on sales of marketable securities are from our investments in marketable securities and are presented separately but are not in the scope of ASC 606.
Other income primarily consists of brokerage commissions for arranging for the sale of a home by a third party and other miscellaneous income. This income is recognized when the transactions are completed and our performance obligations have been fulfilled.
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." ASU 2016-13 requires that entities use a new forward looking "expected loss" model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had notes receivable of \$51.9 million and \$43.4 million, net of a fair value adjustment of \$1.0 million and \$0.9 million, respectively. Notes receivables are presented as a component of notes and other receivables, net on our consolidated balance sheets. These receivables represent balances owed to us for previously completed performance obligations for sales of manufactured homes.
Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period (46.3 million, 41.4 million and 39.9 million in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively). Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the weighted average number of net shares that would be issued upon exercise of stock options pursuant to the treasury stock method. For the year ended December 31, 2021, common stock equivalents resulting from employee stock options to purchase 3.3 million shares of common stock amounted to 1.1 million shares, which were included in the computation of Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share. For the year ended December 31, 2019, common stock equivalents resulting from employee stock options to purchase 2.6 million shares of common stock amounted to 294,000 shares, which were included in the computation of Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share. For the year ended December 31, 2020, employee stock options to purchase 3.3 million shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
The Company accounts for awards of stock, stock options and restricted stock in accordance with ASC 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation. ASC 718-10 requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and amortized over the service period (generally equal to the vesting period). The compensation cost for stock option grants are determined using option pricing models, intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date less estimated forfeitures. The compensation expense for restricted stock are recognized based on the fair value of the restricted stock awards less estimated forfeitures. The fair value of restricted stock awards are equal to the fair value of the Company's stock on the grant date. Compensation costs, which is included in General and Administrative Expenses, of \$3.4 million, \$1.3 million and \$1.9 million have been recognized in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. During 2021, 2020 and 2019, compensation costs included a one-time charge of \$44,000, \$127,000 and \$ 179,000, respectively, for restricted stock and stock option grants awarded to participants who were of retirement age and therefore the entire amount of measured compensation cost has been recognized at grant date. Included in Note 7 to these consolidated financial statements are the assumptions and methodology used to calculate the fair value of stock options and restricted stock awards. The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the applicable provisions of Sections 856 to 860 of the Internal Revenue Code.

ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Based on its evaluation, the Company determined that it has no uncertain tax positions and no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2021. The Company records interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as interest expense. As of December 31, 2021, the tax years 2018 through and including 2021 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. There are currently no federal tax examinations in progress.
Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the prior years have been reclassified to conform to the financial statement presentation for the current year.

On December 8, 2021, the Company and Nuveen Real Estate, a part of Nuveen Global Investments LLC ("Nuveen"), established a joint venture for the purpose of acquiring manufactured housing and/or recreational vehicle communities that are under development and/or newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. The terms of the joint venture are set forth in a Limited Liability Company Agreement dated as of December 8, 2021 (the "LLC Agreement") entered into between a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of Nuveen. The LLC Agreement provides for the parties to initially fund up to \$70 million of equity capital for acquisitions during a 24-month commitment period, with Nuveen having the option, subject to certain conditions, to elect to increase the parties' total commitments by up to an additional \$100 million and to extend the commitment period for up to an additional four years. Committed capital will be funded 60% by Nuveen and 40% by the Company on a parity basis. The Company serves as managing member of the joint venture and will be responsible for day-to-day operations of the joint venture and management of its properties, subject to obtaining Nuveen's approval of major decisions (including investments, dispositions, financings, major capital expenditures and annual budgets). For its role as managing member and property manager, the Company will receive asset management and property management fees. In addition, the Company will be entitled to receive a promote percentage once each member of the joint venture has recouped its invested capital and received a 7.5% net unlevered internal rate of return. initiate such a sale process, the Company may exercise a right of first refusal to acquire Nuveen's interest in the community or communities to be sold for a will be the exclusive vehicle for the Company to acquire any manufactured housing communities and/or recreational vehicle communities that meet the joint
After December 8, 2024 or, if later, the second anniversary of the joint venture's acquisition and placing in service of a manufactured housing or recreational vehicle community, Nuveen will have a right to initiate the sale of one or more of the communities owned by the joint venture. If Nuveen elects to purchase price corresponding to the greater of the appraised value of such communities or the amount required to provide a 7.5% net unlevered internal rate of return on Nuveen's investment. In addition, the Company will have the right to buy out Nuveen's interest in the joint venture at any time after December 8, 2031 at a purchase price corresponding to the greater of the appraised value of the portfolio or the amount required to provide a 7.5% net unlevered internal rate of return on Nuveen's investment.
The LLC Agreement provides that until the capital contributions to the joint venture are fully funded or the joint venture is terminated, the joint venture venture's investment guidelines. These guidelines call for the joint venture to acquire manufactured housing and recreational vehicle communities that have been developed within the previous two years and are less than 20% occupied, are located in certain geographic markets, are projected to meet certain cash flow and internal rate of return targets, and satisfy certain other criteria. The Company has agreed to offer Nuveen the opportunity to have the joint venture acquire any manufactured housing community or recreational vehicle community that meets these investment guidelines. If Nuveen determines not to pursue or approve any such acquisition, the Company would be permitted to acquire the property outside the joint venture. Except for investment opportunities that are offered to and declined by Nuveen, the Company will be prohibited from developing, owning, operating or managing manufactured housing communities or recreational vehicle communities within a 10-mile radius of any community owned by the joint venture. However, this restriction will not apply with respect to investments by the Company in existing communities operated by the Company. On December 22, 2021, the Company, through its joint venture with Nuveen Real Estate, closed on the acquisition of a newly developed all-age,
Nuveen will have the right to remove and replace the Company as managing member of the joint venture and manager of the joint venture's properties if the Company breaches certain obligations or certain events occur. Upon such removal, Nuveen may elect to buy out the Company's interest in the joint venture at 98% of the value of the Company's interest in the joint venture. If Nuveen does not exercise such buy-out right, the Company may, at specified times, elect to initiate a sale of the communities owned by the joint venture, subject to a right of first refusal on the part of Nuveen. The LLC Agreement contains restrictions on a party's right to transfer its interest in the joint venture without the approval of the other party.
While the Company considers the LLC Agreement with Nuveen to be an important agreement, the Company has concluded that the LLC Agreement does not fall within the definition of a "material contract" as defined by SEC rules. The LLC Agreement requires the Company to offer Nuveen the opportunity to have the joint venture acquire a manufactured housing community or recreational vehicle community that meets the investment guidelines. If Nuveen decides not to acquire the community through the joint venture, however, the Company is free to purchase the community on its own outside of the joint venture. Based upon this, and in light of the Company's relationship and its dealings with Nuveen since entering into the LLC Agreement, the Company has concluded that there is no meaningful restriction on the Company's ability to acquire communities that meet the investment guidelines and that the other provisions of the LLC Agreement do not impose any material obligations or restrictions on the Company.
manufactured home community located in Sebring, Florida for a total purchase price of \$22.2 million. This community contains 219 developed homesites. It is situated on approximately 39 acres. The Company manages this community on behalf of the joint venture. See Note 13 for additional information.

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the amount outstanding on this revolving line of credit was \$6 million and the interest rate was 3.25%.
On October 7, 2020, the Company entered into a revolving line of credit with FirstBank secured by rental homes and rental home leases in several of our manufactured home communities. This facility allows for proceeds of \$20 million and is expandable to \$30 million with an accordion feature.

On November 29, 2018, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Amendment") to expand and extend its existing unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Facility"). The Facility is syndicated with two banks led by BMO Capital Markets Corp. ("BMO"), as sole lead arranger and sole book runner, with Bank of Montreal as administrative agent, and includes JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("J.P. Morgan") as the sole syndication agent. The Amendment provided for an increase from \$50 million in available borrowings to \$75 million in available borrowings with a \$50 million accordion feature, bringing the total potential availability up to \$125 million, subject to certain conditions including obtaining commitments from additional lenders. The Amendment also extended the maturity date of the Facility from March 27, 2020 to November 29, 2022, with a one-year extension available at the Company's option, subject to certain conditions including payment of an extension fee. Availability under the Facility is limited to 60% of the value of the unencumbered communities which the Company has placed in the Facility's unencumbered asset pool ("Borrowing Base"). The First Amendment increased the value of the Borrowing Base communities by reducing the capitalization rate applied to the Net Operating Income ("NOI") generated by the communities in the Borrowing Base from 7.5% to 7.0%.

On January 22, 2018, the Company issued 2 million shares of its new 6.375% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, Liquidation Preference \$25.00 Per Share ("Series D Preferred Stock") at an offering price of \$25.00 per share in an underwritten registered public offering. The Company received net proceeds from the sale of these 2 million shares, after deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated offering expenses, of approximately \$48.2 million and has used the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes, which included the purchase of manufactured homes for sale or lease to customers, expansion of its existing communities, acquisitions of additional properties and repayment of indebtedness on a short-term basis.
Dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock shares are cumulative from January 22, 2018 and are payable quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15 at an annual rate of \$1.59375 per share. The Series D Preferred Stock, par value \$0.10 per share, has no maturity and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed or otherwise repurchased. Except in limited circumstances relating to the Company's qualification as a REIT, and as described below, the Series D Preferred Stock is not redeemable prior to January 22, 2023. On and after January 22, 2023, the Series D Preferred Stock will be redeemable at the Company's option for cash, in whole or, from time to time, in part, at a price per share equal to \$25.00, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not declared) to the date of redemption. The Series D Preferred Stock shares rank on a parity with the Company's Series C Preferred Stock shares with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up. In conjunction with the issuance of the Company's Series D Preferred Stock, in January 2018 the Company filed with the Maryland SDAT Articles
Upon the occurrence of a Delisting Event or Change of Control, each as defined in the Prospectus pursuant to which the shares of Series D Preferred Stock were offered, each holder of the Series D Preferred Stock will have the right to convert all or part of the shares of the Series D Preferred Stock held into common stock of the Company, unless the Company elects to redeem the Series D Preferred Stock.
Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock generally have no voting rights, except if the Company fails to pay dividends for nine or more quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, or with respect to certain specified events.
Supplementary setting forth the rights, preferences and terms of the Series D Preferred Stock shares and reclassifying 2.3 million shares of Common Stock as shares of Series D Preferred Stock.
During 2019, 2020 and 2021, the Company sold additional shares of Series D Preferred Stock pursuant to its at-the-market sales programs, and amended its charter in connection therewith, as described below.
On October 21, 2019, the Company entered into a Preferred Stock At-The-Market Sales Program ("2019 Preferred ATM Program") with B. Riley, as distribution agent, under which the Company was permitted to offer and sell shares of the Company's Series C Preferred Stock and/or Series D Preferred Stock, having an aggregate sales price of up to \$100 million. Sales of shares under the 2019 Preferred ATM Program were made in "at the market offerings" as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including, without limitation, sales made directly on or through the NYSE, or on any other existing trading market for the Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock, as applicable, or to or through a market maker or any other method permitted by law, including, without limitation, negotiated transactions and block trades. The Company began selling shares under the 2019 Preferred ATM Program on October 22, 2019 and through June 30, 2020, 3.2 million shares of Series D Preferred Stock were issued and sold under the 2019 Preferred ATM Program at a weighted average price of \$25.09 per share, generating gross proceeds of \$80.5 million and net proceeds of \$79.1 million, after offering expenses. Of these amounts, during 2020, we issued and sold 2.6 million shares of Series D Preferred Stock at a weighted average price of \$25.06 per share, generating gross proceeds of \$64.1 million and net proceeds after offering expenses of \$63.1 million. The Company discontinued the sale of shares under the 2019 Preferred ATM Program prior to June 30, 2020.

On July 15, 2020, the Company filed with the Maryland SDAT Articles Supplementary reclassifying and designating 3.3 million shares of the Company's Common Stock as shares of Series D Preferred Stock. Following the filing of the Articles Supplementary, the authorized capital stock of the Company consisted of 140.4 million shares of Common Stock, 4.0 million shares of Series B Preferred Stock, 13.8 million shares of Series C Preferred Stock, 9.3 million shares of Series D Preferred Stock and 3 million shares of excess stock, par value \$0.10 per share. Additionally, upon the redemption on October 20, 2020 of all 3.7 million outstanding shares of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, the authorized shares of Series B Preferred Stock automatically reverted to authorized Common Stock, which increased our authorized Common Stock by 3.7 million shares.
On July 22, 2020, the Company entered into a new Preferred ATM Stock At-The-Market Sales Program ("2020 Preferred ATM Program") with B. Riley, as distribution agent, under which the Company may offer and sell shares of the Company's Series C Preferred Stock and/or Series D Preferred Stock, having an aggregate sales price of up to \$100 million. Sales of shares under the 2020 Preferred ATM Program are "at the market offerings" as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including, without limitation, sales made directly on or through the NYSE, or on any other existing trading market for the Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock, as applicable, or to or through a market maker or any other method permitted by law, including, without limitation, negotiated transactions and block trades.

In addition to the above, taxable income from non-REIT activities conducted by S&F, a Taxable REIT Subsidiary ("TRS"), is subject to federal, state and local income taxes. Deferred income taxes pertaining to S&F are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the financial reporting bases of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards based on enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. However, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is more likely than not that they will be realized based on consideration of available evidence, including tax planning strategies and other factors. For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, S&F had operating losses for financial reporting purposes of \$1.4 million, \$273,000 and \$1.3 million, respectively. Therefore, a valuation allowance has been established against any deferred tax assets relating to S&F. For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, S&F recorded \$10,000, \$10,000 and \$8,000, respectively, in federal, state and franchise taxes.

The Company is subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that any such claim or litigation will have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, or results of operations of the Company.
The Company and S&F have an agreement with 21st Mortgage Corporation ("21st Mortgage") under which 21st Mortgage can provide financing for home purchasers in the Company's communities. The Company does not receive referral fees or other cash compensation under the agreement. If 21st Mortgage makes loans to purchasers and those purchasers default on their loans and 21st Mortgage repossesses the homes securing such loans, the Company has agreed to purchase from 21st Mortgage each such repossessed home for a price equal to 80% to 95% of the amount under each such loan, subject to certain adjustments. This agreement may be terminated by either party with 30 days written notice. As of December 31, 2021, the total loan balance under this agreement was approximately \$1.3 million. Additionally, 21st Mortgage previously made loans to purchasers in certain communities we acquired. In conjunction with these acquisitions, the Company has agreed to purchase from 21st Mortgage each repossessed home, if those purchasers default on their loans. The purchase price ranges from 55% to 100% of the amount under each such loan, subject to certain adjustments. As of December 31, 2021, the total loan balance owed to 21st Mortgage with respect to homes in these acquired communities was approximately \$1.5 million. Although this agreement is still active, this program is not being utilized by the Company's new customers as a source of financing.
S&F entered into a Chattel Loan Origination, Sale and Servicing Agreement ("COP Program") with Triad Financial Services, effective January 1, 2016. Neither the Company, nor S&F, receive referral fees or other cash compensation under the agreement. Customer loan applications are initially submitted to Triad for consideration by Triad's portfolio of outside lenders. If a loan application does not meet the criteria for outside financing, the application is then considered for financing under the COP Program. If the loan is approved under the COP Program, then it is originated by Triad, assigned to S&F and then assigned by S&F to the Company. Included in Notes and Other Receivables is approximately \$46.0 million of loans that the Company acquired under the COP Program as of December 31, 2021.
The Company and one of its subsidiaries are parties to a Limited Liability Company Agreement dated as of December 8, 2021 with an affiliate of Nuveen Real Estate, which governs the joint venture formed between the Company and Nuveen Real Estate. The LLC Agreement provides for the parties to initially fund up to \$70 million of equity capital for acquisitions during a 24-month commitment period, with Nuveen having the option, subject to certain conditions, to elect to increase the parties' total commitments by up to an additional \$100 million and to extend the commitment period for up to an additional four years. The Company is required to fund 40% of the committed capital and Nuveen is required to fund 60%. All such funding will be on a parity basis. (See Note 5).

| In addition to the Company's investment in Marketable Securities at Fair Value, the Company is required to disclose certain information about fair values of its other financial instruments, as defined in ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments. Estimates of fair value are made at a specific point in time, based upon, where available, relevant market prices and information about the financial instrument. Such estimates do not include any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. All of the Company's marketable securities have quoted market prices. However, for a portion of the Company's other financial instruments, no quoted market value exists. Therefore, estimates of fair value are necessarily based on a number of significant assumptions economic conditions, perceived risks associated with these financial instruments and their counterparties, future expected loss experience and other factors. Given the uncertainties surrounding these assumptions, the reported fair values represent estimates only and, therefore, cannot be compared to the historical accounting |
(many of which involve events outside the control of management). | Such assumptions include assessments | of current | ||
| model. Use of different assumptions or methodologies is likely to result in significantly different fair value estimates. | |||||
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and notes receivables approximates their current carrying amounts since all such items are short-term in nature. The fair value of marketable securities is primarily based upon quoted market values. The fair value of variable rate mortgages payable and loans payable approximate their current carrying amounts since such amounts payable are at approximately a weighted average current market rate of interest. The estimated fair value of fixed rate mortgage notes payable is based on discounting the future cash flows at a year-end risk adjusted borrowing rate currently available to the Company for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. These fair value measurements fall within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2021, the fair and carrying value of fixed rate mortgages payable amounted to \$458.4 million and \$456.7 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, the fair and carrying value of fixed rate mortgages payable amounted to \$487.7 million and \$476.4 million, respectively. Cash paid for interest during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 was \$19.7 million, \$18.3 million and \$ 18.4 million, respectively. Interest cost capitalized to land development during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 was \$1.5 million, \$ 1.3 million and \$ 1.5 million,
respectively.
During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company assumed mortgages totaling \$2.7 million and \$19.4 million, respectively, for the acquisition of communities.
During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, land development costs of \$25.9 million, \$14.4 million and \$19.7 million, respectively were transferred to investment property and equipment and placed in service.
During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company had dividend reinvestments of \$3.5 million, \$3.2 million and \$7.7 million, respectively which required no cash transfers.
Management has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure and/or recognition in the financial statements through the date that the financial statements were issued.
On January 12, 2022, the Company awarded approximately 25,000 shares of restricted stock to five employees.
On February 6, 2022, the Company issued \$102.7 million of its new 4.72% Series A Bonds due 2027, or the 2027 Bonds, in an offering to investors in Israel. The Company received \$98.7 million, net of offering expenses. The 2027 Bonds are unsecured obligations of the Company denominated in Israeli shekels (NIS) and were issued pursuant to a Deed of Trust dated January 31, 2022 between the Company and Reznik Paz Nevo Trusts Ltd., an Israeli trust company, as trustee. The 2027 Bonds will pay interest at a rate of 4.72% per year. Interest on the 2027 Bonds is payable semi-annually on August 31, 2022, and on February 28 and August 31 of the years 2023-2026 (inclusive) and on the final maturity date of February 28, 2027. The principal and interest will be linked to the U.S. Dollar. In the event of a future downgrade by two or more notches in the rating of the 2027 Bonds or a failure by the Company to comply with certain covenants in the Deed of Trust, the interest rate on the 2027 Bonds will be subject to increase. However, any such increases, in the aggregate, would not exceed 1.25% per annum. The 2027 Bonds were offered solely to investors outside the United States and were not offered to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons (as
Under the Deed of Trust, the Company has the right to redeem the 2027 Bonds, in whole or in part, at any time on or after 60 days from February 9, 2022, the date on which the 2027 Bonds were listed for trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (the "TASE"). Any such voluntary early redemption by the Company will require payment of the applicable early redemption amount calculated in accordance with the Deed of Trust. Upon the occurrence of an event of default or certain other events, including a delisting of the 2027 Bonds by the TASE, the Company may be required to effect an early repayment or redemption of all or a portion of the 2027 Bonds at their par value plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The 2027 Bonds are general unsecured obligations of the Company and rank equal in right of payment with all of the Company's existing and future unsecured indebtedness. The Deed of Trust includes certain customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain ratios of debt to net operating income, to shareholders equity and to earnings, and customary events of default.

Below is an example illustrating said calculation:
If the average duration of Government Bond A is 4 years, and the average duration of Government Bond B is 2 years, and the average duration of the balance of the Bonds is 3.5 years, the yield shall be calculated as follows:
4X + 2(1-X) = 3.5
Whilst
X = weight of the yield of Government Bond A. 1-X = weight of the yield of Government Bond B.
According to the calculation, the annual yield of Government Bond A shall be weighted at a rate of seventy five percent (75%) of the yield, and the average yield of Government Bond B shall be weighted at a rate of twenty five percent (25%) of the yield. It should be noted that insofar as the relevant date there will not be any Dollar Israeli Government Bonds, the examination will be made according to U.S. dollar Government Bonds of similar durations (as stated in the definition of the term "Government Bond Yield").

Under the Maryland General Corporation Law ("MGCL") and our charter, a majority of our entire Board of Directors has the power, without action by holders of our Common Stock, to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we have the authority to issue. Our Board of Directors is also authorized under the MGCL and our charter to classify and reclassify any unissued shares of our Common Stock, preferred stock and Excess Stock into other classes, including classification into a class or classes of preferred stock, preference stock, special stock or other stock, and to divide or classify shares into one or more series of such class. These actions can be taken without stockholder approval, unless stockholder approval is required by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which shares of our stock may be listed or traded. Before issuance of shares of each class or series, our Board of Directors is required by the MGCL and our charter to set, subject to restrictions in our charter on transfer of our stock, the terms, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption for each class or series.

Company.
To qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), we must satisfy a number of statutory requirements, including a requirement that no more than 50% in value of our outstanding shares of stock may be owned, actually or constructively, by five or fewer individuals (as defined by the Code to include certain entities) during the last half of a taxable year. In addition, if we, or an actual or constructive owner of 10% or more of our company, actually or constructively owns 10% or more of a tenant of ours (or a tenant of any partnership in which we are a partner), the rent we receive (either directly or through any such partnership) from such tenant will not be qualifying income for purposes of the REIT gross income tests of the Code. Our capital stock must also be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of twelve months or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year.
Our charter prohibits any transfer of shares of our stock or any other change in our capital structure that would result in:
Our charter requires that any person who acquires or attempts to acquire shares of our stock (other than shares of Excess Stock), in violation of these restrictions, which we refer to as the ownership limits, give immediate written notice, or in the event of a proposed or attempted transfer at least 15 days' prior written notice, to us. If any person attempts to transfer shares of our stock, or attempts to cause any other event to occur, that would result in a violation of the ownership limits, then, absent special permission from our Board of Directors:
Shares of Excess Stock will be held in book entry form in the name of a trustee appointed by us to hold the excess shares for the benefit of one or more charitable beneficiaries appointed by us and a beneficiary designated by the purported transferee, which we refer to as the designated beneficiary, whose ownership of the shares of our stock that were converted into and exchanged for Excess Stock does not violate the ownership limits. The purported transferee may not receive consideration in exchange for designating the designated beneficiary in an amount that exceeds the price per share that the purported transferee paid for the shares of our stock converted into and exchanged for shares of Excess Stock or, if the purported transferee did not give value for such shares, the market price of the shares on the date of the purported transfer or other event resulting in the conversion and exchange. Any excess amounts received by the purported transferee as consideration for designating the designated beneficiary must be paid to the trustee for the benefit of the charitable beneficiary. Upon the written designation of a designated beneficiary and the waiver by us of our right to redeem the shares of Excess Stock, the trustee will transfer the shares of Excess Stock to the designated beneficiary and, upon such transfer, the shares of Excess Stock will automatically be converted into and exchanged for the number and class of shares of our stock as were converted into and exchanged for such shares of Excess Stock. Shares of Excess Stock are not otherwise transferable. If the purported transferee attempts to transfer shares of our stock before discovering that the shares have been converted into and exchanged for shares of Excess Stock, the shares will be deemed to have been sold on behalf of the trust and any amount received by the purported transferee in excess of what the purported transferee would have been entitled to receive as consideration for designating a designated beneficiary must be paid to the trustee on demand.
Holders of shares of Excess Stock are not entitled to vote on any matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of our stockholders. Upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the company, the trustee must distribute to the designated beneficiary any amounts received as a distribution on the shares of Excess Stock that do not exceed the price per share paid by the purported transferee in the transaction that created the violation or, if the purported transferee did not give value for such shares, the market price of the shares of our stock that were converted into and exchanged for shares of Excess Stock, on the date of the purported transfer or other event that resulted in such conversion and exchange. Any amount received upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the company not payable to the designated beneficiary, and any other dividends or distributions paid on shares of Excess Stock, will be distributed by the trustee to the charitable beneficiary.
Every holder of more than 1% of the number or value of outstanding shares of our stock must give written notice to us stating the name and address of such owner, the number of shares of stock beneficially or constructively owned and a description of the manner in which the shares are owned. Our Board of Directors may, in its sole and absolute discretion, exempt certain persons from the ownership limitations contained in our charter if ownership of shares of capital stock by such persons would not disqualify us as a REIT under the Code.
The shares of Common Stock have no preferences, conversion, sinking fund, redemption (except with respect to shares of Excess Stock) or preemptive rights to subscribe for any of our securities.
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters voted on by the holders of Common Stock, including the election of directors. Except as provided with respect to any other class or series of capital stock, the holders of our Common Stock will possess the exclusive voting power. There is no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which means that the holders of a plurality of the outstanding shares of Common Stock can elect all of the directors then standing for election and the holders of the remaining shares of Common Stock, if any, will not be able to elect any directors, except as otherwise provided for in any other class or series of our capital stock, including any preferred stock.
Subject to any preferential rights granted to any class or series of our capital stock, including the Series C Preferred Stock and the Series D Preferred Stock, and to the provisions of our charter regarding restrictions on transfer and ownership of shares of Common Stock, holders of our Common Stock will be entitled to receive dividends or other distributions if, as and when authorized by our Board of Directors and declared by us out of funds legally available for dividends or other distributions to stockholders. Subject to the provisions in our charter regarding restrictions on ownership and transfer, all shares of our Common Stock have equal distribution rights. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment of, or adequate provision for, all of our known debts and liabilities and after payment of any preferential amounts to any class of preferred stock which may be outstanding, including the Series C Preferred Stock and the Series D Preferred Stock, and after payment of, or adequate provision for, all of our known debts and liabilities, holders of Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably in all assets that we may legally distribute to our stockholders. appraisal rights unless our Board of Directors determines prospectively that appraisal rights will apply to one or more transactions in which holders of our

Under Maryland law, holders of our Common Stock will generally not be liable for our obligations solely as a result of their status as stockholders.

Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time, in one or more series, as authorized by our Board of Directors. Before issuance of shares of each series, the Board of Directors is required to fix for each such series, subject to the provisions of MGCL and our charter, the terms, preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions and terms and conditions of redemption, and such other matters as may be fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof.
Our outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock are fully paid and nonassessable and have no preemptive rights.
