1 time reimbursements, those types of things, um, or 1 times fees, they're usually not very large. So that's the accounting for the million dollar range in the guidance.
Mitch Germain: Got you. Okay, that's helpful. Obviously your interest rate is pretty much fixed at this point, so, maybe provide some perspective on the Indianapolis lease. I know that this has been, you know, a big burden for you guys, a big priority strategically. Do you believe it becomes income paying, June? How should I think?

Speaker #4: Maybe if you can provide some details on that, please.
Speaker #3: Sure. Hi, Mitch. So we anticipate the lease to be signed in June. There will be a minimal free rent of four months. So we'll start seeing the cash in the back half of the year.

Speaker #3: And it will be at a roll-up in rent.
Speaker #4: Great. And then last question for me with regards to the recent debt: does it offer some flexibility from the covenant perspective with regards to your ability to potentially look to sell some assets?
Uh, June, how should I think? And maybe just provide some perspective on the economics. Are we looking at rents going higher? Uh, maybe if you can provide some details on that, please.
Yael Duffy: Sure. Hi, Mitch. We anticipate the lease to be signed in June. There will be a minimal free rent of 4 months. We'll start seeing the cash in the back H2 of the year, and it will be at a roll-up in rent.

Speaker #4: And then maybe just broadly speaking, do you think that asset sales might become more of a strategic priority?
Of 4 months. So, um, we'll start seeing the cash, um, in the back half of the year and it will be um, at a roll up in rent.
Mitch Germain: Great. Last question from me with regards to the recent debt.

Great.
Speaker #3: Hi, Mitch. So there is a 24-month lockout period in the new debt.
Um, and then last question for me, with regards to the recent debt, um,
Speaker #5: And then I will add, I think with the leasing of this property in Indianapolis, it will allow us flexibility on the $1.16 billion debt to be able to look to sell properties in that pool.
Does it offer some Flex more flexibility? From the Covenant perspective with regards to your ability?
Uh, to potentially look to sell some assets and then maybe just broadly speaking.
Speaker #5: So while we might not be able to, in the short term, have dispositions within Mountain, we will have greater flexibility now that we've gotten this Indianapolis lease completed.
Um, do you think that asset sales might become more of a strategic priority?
Tiffany Sy: Mitch, there is a 24-month lockout period in the new debt.

While we might not be able to, in the short term, have dispositions within Mountain, we will have greater flexibility now that we've gotten this Indianapolis lease completed.

Speaker #4: Thanks. And appreciate the guidance.
Speaker #3: Thanks, Mitch.
Speaker #1: Thank you. Again, if you have a question, please press star, then one. Our next question comes from John Massocca, with B. Riley. Please go ahead.
Speaker #6: Good morning. So maybe can you walk us through what the $1.1 million of one-time items were in the quarter? And I guess, is that kind of why guidance is calling for, I guess, a step down in 2Q versus 1Q at the midpoint?
And then I will add, I think, with the um leasing of this um property in Indianapolis it does it will allow us flexibility on the 1.16 billion dollar debt to be able to look to sell properties in that pool. So, while we might not be able to in the short term um, have dispositions within Mountain, we will have greater flexibility now that we've gotten this, India napus lease completed.

Thank you.
Again, if you have a question, please press star then 1.
Speaker #3: Yeah, that's exactly why. So there was $650,000 of percentage rent that gets trued up. That happened this quarter. And then we also had $450,000 of a one-time remediation fee related to a move-out that has already been released.
An expression comes from John masoka with B Riley. Please go ahead.
John Massocca: Morning.
John Massocca: Morning.
Morning.
Yael Duffy: Good morning.
Yael Duffy: Good morning.
John Massocca: Maybe can you walk us through what the $1.1 million of one-time items were in the quarter? I guess, is that kind of why guidance is calling for, I guess, a step down in Q2 versus Q1 at the midpoint?
John Massocca: Maybe can you walk us through what the $1.1 million of one-time items were in the quarter? I guess, is that kind of why guidance is calling for, I guess, a step down in Q2 versus Q1 at the midpoint?
Good morning. Um, so maybe can, maybe. Can you walk us through what? The 1.1 million of 1 time items were in the quarter and I guess
Speaker #6: Okay. And the percentage rent, kind of true up, is that something that could hit in any given quarter, or is that usually a 1Q item?
Is that kind of why guidance is calling for, I guess a step down in 2q versus 1 Q at the midpoint.
Yael Duffy: Yeah, that's exactly why. There was $650,000 of percentage rent that gets trued up that happened this quarter. We also had $450,000 of a one-time remediation fee related to a move out that has already been released.
Yael Duffy: Yeah, that's exactly why. There was $650,000 of percentage rent that gets trued up that happened this quarter. We also had $450,000 of a one-time remediation fee related to a move out that has already been released.
Speaker #3: It's always a 1Q item. We just never know what the amount will be or even if it will be incremental to us.
Speaker #6: And kind of post the debt transaction and now kind of your balance sheet really pretty set, how are you thinking about utilizing the kind of cash balance today?
Yeah, that's exactly why. So there was 650,000 of percentage rent that gets trued up. Um, that happened this quarter. And then we also had uh, 450,000 of a 1-time remediation fee related to uh a move out that has already been released.
John Massocca: Okay. The percentage rent kind of true up, is that something that could hit in any given quarter, or is that usually a Q1 item?
John Massocca: Okay. The percentage rent kind of true up, is that something that could hit in any given quarter, or is that usually a Q1 item?
Speaker #6: Talk a little bit about dispositions maybe using that in the cash to pay down debt potentially, or would you even potentially look into the acquisition market?
Okay, and the percentage. Rent kind of true up is that something that could hit in any given quarter? Is that usually a 1 Q item?
Yael Duffy: It's always a 1 Q item. We just never know what the amount will be or even if it will be incremented to us.
Yael Duffy: It's always a 1Q item. We just never know what the amount will be or even if it will be incremented to us.
Speaker #6: Just kind of curious how you're thinking of kind of managing the cash outstanding given there's a little more certainty from a debt side of your balance sheet.
It's always a 1 Q item. We just never know what the amount will be or even if the if it will be incremental to us.
John Massocca: Kind of post the debt transaction and now kind of your balance sheet really pretty set, how are you thinking about utilizing the kind of cash balance today? You know, talk a little bit about dispositions, maybe using that in the cash to pay down debt potentially. Would you even potentially look into the acquisition market? Just kind of curious how you're thinking of kind of managing the cash outstanding, given there's a little more certainty from a debt side of your balance sheet.
John Massocca: Kind of post the debt transaction and now kind of your balance sheet really pretty set, how are you thinking about utilizing the kind of cash balance today? You know, talk a little bit about dispositions, maybe using that in the cash to pay down debt potentially. Would you even potentially look into the acquisition market? Just kind of curious how you're thinking of kind of managing the cash outstanding, given there's a little more certainty from a debt side of your balance sheet.
Speaker #5: I think that's a good question. I think we're kind of evaluating all of our options right now. We want to make sure that we have cash on the balance sheet to address our tenants' needs.
Um, and kind of post the the debt transaction and now kind of your balance sheet, really pretty set. How are you thinking about?
Utilizing the kind of cash balance today.
Speaker #5: We have a couple of tenants we're in early discussions with who are looking at potential building expansions that they want us to partner with them on.
You know, talk a little bit about dispositions, maybe using that in the cache to pay down debt potentially, or would you even potentially look into the acquisition market? Just kind of curious how you're thinking of—
Speaker #5: So we want to make sure that we have that cash available to us. So I think it's early stages. We'll see where we shake out, and then go from there.
Kind of managing the cash outstanding given there's a little more certainty from a from a debt that you're balance sheet.
Yael Duffy: I think that's a good question. I think we're kind of evaluating all of our options right now. You know, we wanna make sure that we have cash on the balance sheet to address our tenants' needs. We have a couple tenants we're in early discussions with who are looking at potential building expansions that they want us to partner with them on. We want to make sure that we, you know, have that cash available to us. I think it's early stages. We'll see where we shake out and then go from there.
Yael Duffy: I think that's a good question. I think we're kind of evaluating all of our options right now. You know, we wanna make sure that we have cash on the balance sheet to address our tenants' needs. We have a couple tenants we're in early discussions with who are looking at potential building expansions that they want us to partner with them on. We want to make sure that we, you know, have that cash available to us. I think it's early stages. We'll see where we shake out and then go from there.
I think that's
Speaker #6: And I know those are potentially unique situations, but how do you think about a return threshold if you get back into the market of deploying capital?
Speaker #3: I think that we're certainly in a better position today than we were even a year ago. So I think that's something that we're always considering with the board.
A good question. I think we're, um, we're kind of evaluating all of our options right now. Um, you know, we want to make sure that we have cash on the balance sheet to address our tenants' needs. We have a couple tenants we're in early discussions with who are looking at potential building expansions that they want us to partner with them on.
so, we want to make sure that we
You know, have have that cash available to us.
Speaker #6: Okay. And then lastly, go ahead.
So, I think it's early stages. We'll see where we shake out, and then go from there.
John Massocca: I know those are potentially unique situations, but how do you think about, like, a return threshold if you get back into the market of deploying capital?
John Massocca: I know those are potentially unique situations, but how do you think about, like, a return threshold if you get back into the market of deploying capital?
Speaker #5: No, I didn't know if you were asking about property acquisition specifically. Was that part of the question?
Speaker #6: Property acquisitions are even kind of investment. I mean, I know investments with existing tenants, there's other considerations at play there. But if you were to get back into the market, how would you kind of view the current cap rate environment versus where you'd want to deploy capital?
And I know those are potentially unique situations, but how do you think about like a return threshold if you get back into the market of deploying capital?
Yael Duffy: I think that, we're certainly in a better position today than we were even a year ago. I think that's something that, you know, we're always considering with the board.
Tiffany Sy: I think that, we're certainly in a better position today than we were even a year ago. I think that's something that, you know, we're always considering with the board.
Speaker #6: Are there things that are attractive out there today? Especially given it would probably be coming from cash on hand rather than newly raised capital.
I think that, uh, we're certainly in a better position today than we were even a year ago. So I think that's something that uh, you know, we're we're always considering with the board.
John Massocca: Okay. Then lastly.
John Massocca: Okay. Then lastly.
Yael Duffy: Were you-
Yael Duffy: Were you-
Okay. And then lastly,
John Massocca: Go ahead.
John Massocca: Go ahead.
Yael Duffy: No, I didn't know if you were asking about property acquisitions specifically. Was that part of the question?
Yael Duffy: No, I didn't know if you were asking about property acquisitions specifically. Was that part of the question?
Speaker #5: I think given where our leverage is today, I don't see us looking to acquire any properties at least in the short term unless it's a very specific situation or an opportunistic one.
John Massocca: Well, either property acquisitions or even kind of investment. I mean, I know investments with existing tenants, you know, there's other considerations at play there. If you were to get back into the market, like how would you kind of view the current cap rate environment versus where you'd want to deploy capital? Are there things that are attractive out there today, especially given it would probably be coming from cash on hand rather than, you know, newly raised capital?
John Massocca: Well, either property acquisitions or even kind of investment. I mean, I know investments with existing tenants, you know, there's other considerations at play there. If you were to get back into the market, like how would you kind of view the current cap rate environment versus where you'd want to deploy capital? Are there things that are attractive out there today, especially given it would probably be coming from cash on hand rather than, you know, newly raised capital?
No, I didn't know. If you were asking about property acquisition specifically—was property acquisitions or even kind of investment? I mean, I know investments with existing tenants, you know, there's—there's...
Other considerations at play there. But if, if you were to get back into the market, like how would you kind of view the current cap rate environment versus
Speaker #6: Okay. And then lastly, the CapEx spending was down a little bit. I know 1Q can be a relatively weak period seasonally for CapEx spend, but is that kind of more typical run rate should be, or was the current quarter a little bit of an anomaly?
Where you would want to deploy, Capital are there things that are attractive out there today? Uh, especially given it would probably be coming from cash on hand rather than, you know, newly raised capital
Yael Duffy: I think given where our leverage is today, I don't see us looking to acquire any properties, at least in the short term, unless it's a, you know, very specific situation or an opportunistic one.
Yael Duffy: I think given where our leverage is today, I don't see us looking to acquire any properties, at least in the short term, unless it's a, you know, very specific situation or an opportunistic one.
I think given where our leverages today, I don't see.
Speaker #3: Current quarter was an anomaly. I think Q1 can be down sometimes. That's not what we are forecasting going forward.
Why are any properties at least in the short term? Unless it's a, you know, very specific situation or an opportunistic.
John Massocca: Okay. Lastly, the CapEx spending was down a little bit. I know Q1 can be a relatively weak period seasonally for CapEx spend. Is that kind of more typical run rate should be, or was the current quarter a little bit of an anomaly?
John Massocca: Okay. Lastly, the CapEx spending was down a little bit. I know Q1 can be a relatively weak period seasonally for CapEx spend. Is that kind of more typical run rate should be, or was the current quarter a little bit of an anomaly?

Is that kind of more typical run rate should be or was the current quarter a little bit of an anomaly?
Speaker #5: Operator, that concludes our call.
Yael Duffy: Current quarter was an anomaly. I think Q1 can be down sometimes. That's not what we are forecasting going forward.
