Outlook
As slow economic and employment growth continues to impact the Washington, DC region, the commercial real estate market
is expected to remain relatively flat in 2015. The private sector should continue to drive employment; while the federal government continues to downsize its workforce. Early renewals are expected to dominate the larger lease transactions, as private
sector tenants leverage the current market conditions. The GSA should continue to execute renewals as well, however, their
primary focus will be on consolidating and downsizing federal office space requirements when possible. To maintain or increase competitiveness in this “tenant’s market”, aggressive landlords will continue to renovate and upgrade amenities to their
buildings. As the GSA and the private sector (as seen with the larger DC law firms) continue to reduce space requirements,
vacancy is expected to tick upward, while net absorption is expected to decline. Although the construction pipeline remains
limited, there will be a modest uptick in inventory with eight new buildings, totaling 1.6 square feet, scheduled to deliver through
the remainder 2015. Sales velocity is expected to remain strong in Northern Virginia, while foreign investors continue to focus
on core assets in DC. The “flight to quality” trend should continue market-wide as tenants (especially DC law firms) desire
well located, new product.

Northern Virginia
Market Summary
The Northern Virginia office market consists of 1,536 buildings over 25,000 square feet, totaling approximately 181.9
million square feet of rentable space.
The largest non-GSA lease signed during the first quarter was
a 117-acre ground lease at One Fairfax - 3225 Gallows Road
in the Merrifield submarket signed by Inova Health System.
The lease included ExxonMobil’s former four-building, 1.2
million-square-foot campus, and grants Inova the first right of
refusal to purchase the property. Inova plans to redevelop the
property into a medical research, education, and treatment
facility that will serve as an expansion of its Fairfax campus.
The largest government lease signed during the first quarter
was a relet/downsize by the GSA – U.S. Marshals Service for
332,964 square feet in the Crystal City submarket at Crystal
Gateway 3 – 1215 South Clark Street. The U.S. Marshals will
shed 41,238 square feet within Crystal City during mid-2016
when the move is completed.
Building sales volume totaled approximately $564 million during the first quarter. The largest transaction to occur was the
sale of the Suffolk Building - 5611 Columbia Pike in the Alexandria submarket. The 258,248-square-foot building delivered in 1964, and was renovated in 2003, and upon purchase
was 100% leased to the GSA - Department of Defense. NGP
bought the property from a JV of Carr Properties and J.P. Morgan for $96,712,497 or $374 psf, and it traded at a 6.9% cap
rate.

Leasing activity during the first quarter totaled 3.7 million square feet
leased, which is the highest level of quarterly leasing activity recorded
in Northern Virginia in the last two years. The major leasing activity spike
was primarily driven by Inova’s 1.2 million-square-foot lease at One
Fairfax; other leasing activity in Northern Virginia during the first quarter
amounted to 2.5 million square feet. Even discounting Inova’s lease,
Northern Virginia started 2015 with the highest first quarter leasing activity since the first quarter 2009. Six GSA and government contractor
renewals and consolidations in excess of 90,000 square feet helped to
drive this high level of activity.

Vacancy Rate (%)
Northern Virginia recorded negative absorption during the first quarter 2015 totalling -1,287,547 square feet. While there was a handful
of small to medium-sized move-ins, the majority of positive absorption
during the first quarter 2015 was negated by large move-outs. Significant negative absorption was caused by move-outs by Freddie Mac at
8000 Jones Branch Drive, Boeing at Crystal Gateway 3 - 1215 South
Clark Street, the GSA-DIA at 3100 Clarendon Boulevard and 7900 Westpark Drive, The Aerospace Corporation at 15049 Conference Center
Drive and Lockheed Martin at 2245 Monroe Street. Since 2011 negative
absorption in Northern Virginia has totaled over -3 million square feet.

Northern Virginia Quarterly overview
1st quarter 2015
Construction (Cont.)
Two buildings delivered during the first quarter for a total of 199,099 square feet. Comstock Partners completed construction on
Loudoun Station – 43777 Central Station Drive, a 49,099-square-foot building, which delivered on a speculative basis. COPT
completed construction on COPT @ Westfields - 4870 Stonecroft Boulevard, a 150,000-square-foot building that is fully leased
to the CIA.
The second half of the COPT @ Westfields development is scheduled to deliver during the second quarter 2015. The
150,000-square-foot 4850 Stonecroft Boulevard is also 100% pre-leased to the CIA.
Outlook
During the first quarter 2015 Northern Virginia witnessed a number of statistical extremes which demonstrate that rental rates
will continue to lower and landlords will continue to offer greater concession packages to fill an increasing amount of vacant
space. Northern Virginia recorded the most negative absorption in a quarter since the second quarter 2001, and the highest
total vacancy rate ever recorded according to historical data. The first quarter 2015 saw the market record an average rental
rate of $31.82, which is lower than the average rental rates recorded in each quarter during 2014. Rental rates will continue to
drop lower as long as vacancy rates continue to increase. Building owners will continue to offer the aggressive and unorthodox
concession packages similar to the ones offered in 2014. For example, Noblis ESI was given $85 psf in tenant improvements
and a full year of free rent for their lease at 2000/2200 Edmund Halley Drive, and Sands Capital Management’s new lease at
1000 Wilson Boulevard included $85 psf in tenant improvements and the construction of a 3,070-square-foot roof deck for
exclusive company use. Vornado and other Crystal City landlords are offering abatement packages that include two to three
years of rental abatement.
The first quarter 2015 saw Northern Virginia record the largest amount of quarterly leasing activity since the third quarter 2010.
However, a large proportion of this activity was generated by renewals or large consolidations by federal agencies or their contractors, with six such deals 90,000 square feet or greater being signed. With no indication that this overall trend will change,
federal agencies and their corroborating contractors will continue to remain in place or decrease their overall footprints in future
quarters.

Highlights
Direct vacancy in Alexandria has decreased from 17.2% in the fourth quarter 2014 to 16.8% in the first quarter 2015, and has decreased from 17.1% since first quarter 2014. Total vacancy decreased from 18.8% in the fourth quarter 2014 to 18.4% in the first
quarter 2015, and has increased from 17.7% since first quarter 2014.
The Alexandria submarket recorded -87,931 square feet of absorption during the first quarter 2015. The majority of this absorption is attributed to a 31,057-square-foot space vacated by the Defense Technology Security Administration, which consolidated to
4800 Mark Center Drive as part of BRAC.
The largest sales transaction executed in Northern Virginia during the first quarter 2015 was the sale of the Suffolk Building – 5611
Columbia Pike in the I-395 Corridor. NGP V Management bought the 258,248-square-foot building from a JV of Carr Properties and
J.P. Morgan for $96.7 million, or $324 psf, with a 6.9% cap rate. The building was fully leased to the GSA-DoD at the time of sale.
Two of the top ten largest lease transactions in Northern Virginia during the first quarter 2015 took place in the I-395 Corridor, both
of which were GSA renewals in excess of 90,000 square feet. This is consistent with the general strategy of the GSA and government contractors in Northern Virginia either holding at their current locations or downsizing to smaller space.
2200 Mill Road was demolished, decreasing the Alexandria submarket’s inventory by 148,000 square feet. The remaining lot is
part of the proposed site of Eisenhower Gateway, a two building, 585,000-square-foot office development.

Highlights
Direct vacancy in Crystal City has decreased from 21.8% in the fourth quarter 2014 to 20.6% the first quarter 2015, and has decreased from 23.4% since first quarter 2014. Total vacancy has decreased from 22.3% in the fourth quarter 2014 to 20.9% in the
first quarter 2015, and has decreased from 24.5% since first quarter 2014.
Crystal City recorded -237,226 square feet of absorption during the first quarter 2015. The majority of this negative absorption can
be attributed to Boeing, which vacated 290,229 square feet at Crystal Gateway 3 - 1215 South Clark Street. This move was part of
a long-term consolidation into their recently constructed national headquarters at Monument View in Pentagon City.
The second largest lease transaction in Northern Virginia and the largest relet during the first quarter 2015 was a 332,964-squarefoot deal signed by the GSA - U.S. Marshals at Crystal Gateway 3 - 1215 South Clark Street. Despite its significant size, the deal
will cause the U.S. Marshals to decrease its overall footprint in Crystal City by 41,238 square feet.
Despite vacancy rates in the Crystal City submarket remaining high, there were three deals signed during the first quarter 2015
that will contribute organic growth in the future. After signing for 68,000 square feet at Crystal Park 5 - 2451 Crystal Drive during
the fourth quarter 2014, the American Diabetes Association signed to expand by an additional 10,000 square feet. Additionally,
CAMRIS International signed for 15,266 square feet at Century Two - 2461 South Clark Street. International grocer Lidl purchased
National Gateway I - 3500 South Clark Street, and plans to occupy the entire building next quarter.

Direct vacancy in Fairfax has increased from 14.5% in the fourth quarter 2014 to 14.6% in the first quarter 2015, and has
increased from 13.7% since first quarter 2014. Total vacancy has increased from 15.0% in the fourth quarter 2014 to 15.1% in
the first quarter 2015, and has increased from 14.3% since first quarter 2014.
The Fairfax submarket recorded 4,340 square feet of absorption at the end of the first quarter 2015 This positive absorption
represents the sum of a handful of smaller occupancies throughout the submarket.
Overall activity in the Fairfax submarket has remained tepid, with the submarket recording first quarter leasing activity nearly five
times lower than the 258,278 square feet recorded in the first quarter 2014. There also has not been an office sale transaction
above $10 million since the second quarter 2014. However, the Fairfax and Merrifield submarkets were the only two submarkets in Northern Virginia during the first quarter 2015 that recorded positive absorption. McLean Mortgage also renewed
its existing 15,418-square-foot space in Bridgewater Corporate Center and expanded by 12,000 square feet, providing some
organic growth for the submarket.

Loudoun County experienced -43,083 square feet of negative absorption during the first quarter 2015. The majority of this
negative absorption can be attributed to MC Dean giving back 52,868 square feet at Loudoun Gateway IV – 22980 Indian
Creek Drive.
The Loudoun County submarket saw an increase in future tenant growth due to two leases larger than 20,000 square feet
signed during the first quarter 2015 for new space. Electronic Transaction Systems Corporation signed a new lease at
Lakeview West - 20135 Lakeview Center Place for 27,003 square feet, and will occupy during third quarter 2015. The

Merrifield hosted the largest lease transaction of the first quarter 2015 in Northern Virginia, a 117-acre ground lease by
Inova at One Fairfax - 3225 Gallows Road in Merrifield, which encompasses the entirety of ExxonMobil’s former fourbuilding, 1.2 million-square-foot campus. The transaction has pushed the Merrifield submarket’s leasing activity to 1.3
million square feet for the first quarter, the highest level recorded in historical data. The campus is planned to be redeveloped into a research, education, and treatment center for rare diseases. The terms of the lease grant Inova the first right
of refusal to purchase the property. Inova plans on taking possession of the campus in the third quarter 2015.

Direct vacancy in the Rosslyn Ballston-Corridor has increased from 18.4% in the fourth quarter 2014 to 19.0% in the first quarter
2015, and has increased from 16.4% since first quarter 2014. Total vacancy has increased from 19.1% in the fourth quarter 2014
to 19.9% in the first quarter 2015, and has increased from 17.2% since first quarter 2014. Both direct and total vacancy are at the
highest levels recorded in the past two decades.
The Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor recorded -137,509 square feet of absorption during the first quarter 2015. Much of this negative
absorption comes from the 238,145-square-foot vacancy by the GSA-DIA at 31000 Clarendon Boulevard, which has consolidated
regional offices in to Patriot’s Park – 12310 & 12300 Sunrise Valley Drive in the Reston-Herndon submarket.
The largest sales transaction in the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor was the acquisition of the medical offices at Virginia Square Plaza
by Harrison Street Real Estate Capital from ProMed Properties for $28.5 million, or $407 per square foot. This was the highest
price per square foot of any office property sold in Northern Virginia during the quarter.
The largest lease transaction in the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor was a 82,167-square-foot relet by Sands Capital Management’s new
lease at Twin Towers - 1000 Wilson Boulevard. Sands will occupy the top four floors, and will vacate its 60,000-square-foot space
across the street at 1101 Wilson Boulevard in first quarter 2016.

Highlights
Direct vacancy in the Route 28 North submarket has increased from 17.5% in the fourth quarter 2014 to 17.8% in the first
quarter 2015, and has decreased from 19.6% since first quarter 2014. Total vacancy has increased from 18.3% in the
fourth quarter 2014 to 18.5% in the first quarter 2015, and has decreased from 20.6% since first quarter 2014.
The Route 28 Corridor North experienced -58,971 square feet of negative absorption during the first quarter 2015. The
majority of this negative absorption is attributable to MC Dean giving back 52,868 square feet at Loudoun Gateway IV –
22980 Indian Creek Drive.
Comstock Partners delivered the 49,099-square-foot Loudoun Station - 43777 Central Station Drive. One of only two
projects to complete construction during the first quarter 2015, Loudoun Station did not have any pre-leasing activity, and
contributed to the vacancy rate increase at the end of the quarter.

Direct vacancy in the Tysons Corner submarket has increased from 15.5% in the fourth quarter 2014 to 16.9% in the first
quarter 2015, and has increased from 13.9% from the first quarter 2014. Total vacancy has increased from 16.6% from the
fourth quarter 2014 to 17.6% in the first quarter 2015, and has increased from 14.5% since first quarter 2014.
Tysons Corner recorded -449,734 square feet of absorption during the first quarter 2015, the largest single-quarter of negative absorption since the recession first hit in the first quarter of 2003. The majority of this negative absorption can by attributed to the vacancy left at 8000 Jones Branch Drive by Freddie Mac, which vacated the entire 217,129-square-foot building in
a regional consolidation. As well, Hewlett-Packard vacated 74,070 square feet at 8075 Leesburg Pike.
Leasing activity in Tysons Corner finished the first quarter 2015 strong, with nine deals over 11,000 square feet being
completed. The largest renewal of the first quarter 2015 in Northern Virginia was Booz Allen Hamilton’s retention of its
222,989-square-foot headquarters at John Marshall II - 8283 Greensboro Drive.
Construction has begun on Capital One’s new corporate headquarters located on Capital One Drive. The 975,000-square-foot
building will be the second tallest structure in the region after the Washington Monument, and has raised the amount of office
space under construction in the Tysons Corner submarket to over 1.7 million square feet, its highest level recorded since
year-end 2000. The building is slated to deliver during the second quarter 2017.
