Special Servicer Situs Holdings, LLC Page 5 of 35 COMM 2020-SBX | December 15, 2020 DBRS Morningstar Perspective The COMM 2020-SBX Mortgage Trust single-asset/single-borrower transaction (COMM 2020-SBX) is collateralized by the borrower’s fee-simple interest in the Starbucks Center, a 1,434,337-sf Class A LEED Gold office building with retail, storage, and parking components, and the 108,000-sf Home Depot parcel, a single-tenant anchored retail property, in the SODO submarket of Seattle, Washington. DBRS Morningstar takes a positive view on the credit characteristics of the collateral, which serves as the global headquarters for Starbucks Corporation (Starbucks). The Starbucks Center benefits from long-term, institutional-grade tenancy with a Starbucks lease that expires in September 2038 with three 7.5-year lease extensions options remaining. DBRS Morningstar’s DSCR of 3.95x, the collateral’s WA remaining lease term of 16.4 years, and the loan’s low interest rate suggest a low term default risk profile. Starbucks’ lease expires in September 2038, which is 12.6 years and 9.6 years after the anticipated repayment date (ARD) and the stated maturity date, respectively. The ARD structure of the loan, which requires that all NCF after debt service be applied to principal during a three-year tail, coupled with Starbucks’ lease term relative to the ARD and stated maturity, reduces maturity default risk. Additionally, the ARD structure provides the sponsor with the option to sell, refinance, or keep the subject loan in place after Starbucks’ rent step in November 2025, which will more than triple Starbucks’ current base rent of $8.52 psf as of the November 1, 2020, rent roll. DBRS Morningstar estimates that utilizing income generated by Starbucks only, the loan could be paid down substantially from $425.0 million ($275.56 psf) to $343.1 million ($222.44 psf) during the 36 months from ARD to stated maturity. Strengths • Investment-Grade Tenancy: Starbucks, which is investment grade rated, represents 93.8% of the DBRS Morningstar Base Rent and qualified for LTCT treatment in DBRS Morningstar’s concluded NCF. Starbucks moved its corporate headquarters to the property in 1993 and has since expanded more than 60 times, growing to over 1.3 million sf as of the November 1, 2020, rent roll from 60,000 sf. • Below-Market Rents: Starbucks’ November 1, 2020, rental rate of $8.52 psf and the stepped-up rental rate of $28.17 psf in November 2025 are both well below the appraiser’s estimated market rent of $40.00 psf for the space. A key variable of Starbucks’ early expansion plan in 1995 with the sponsor was that Starbucks would the lease warehouse space at a low rental rate with the requirement that it would fund any building system and tenant and amenity improvements. The appraiser, Cushman & Wakefield plc (Cushman and Wakefield), concluded to a prospective market value upon NOI stabilization of $967.0 million in October 2025 for the Starbucks Center building, which represents a 38.9% positive variance over the as-is market value of $696.0 million. • Significant Tenant Investment: Starbucks has spent approximately $128.0 million of its own capital for build-outs, lobby renovations, amenities, and other projects in its space since 2015. Starbucks’ investment since 2015 has included expanding its build-out on the second and third floor as well as the research and development labs on the ground floor, renovating the east side exterior facade, and adding The Princi Bakery, The Reserve Store, and the Tryer Center (an innovation space for Starbucks’ prototype product development).
