The Real Estate Sustainability Accounting Standard, most recently updated by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (“SASB”) in 2023, includes commonly used material sustainability metrics and serves as a framework chosen by many public REITs to disclose sustainability related information. This standard includes Energy Management and Water Management metrics, and metrics related to the Management of Tenant Sustainability Impacts and Climate Change Adaption.

Orion’s SASB disclosures for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, are presented below.

Description of how building energy
management considerations are integrated
into property investment analysis and
operational strategy

Discussion and
Analysis

Building energy management is an important component of the Company’s property investment analysis and operational strategy. During the investment analysis process, the Company considers the property’s energy efficiency, green certifications, such as Energy Star or LEED, available renewable energy sources, such as solar power, and EV charging stations. Regarding operational strategy, a significant majority of the Company’s leases are double net and triple net leases where the tenant generally controls the energy management practices at the property. However, the Company recognizes that resource consumption can have a meaningful impact on the environment and works with its tenants to obtain information with respect to energy management practices. During 2022, the Company conducted a tenant survey to gather information regarding property specific environmental features, including energy management practices. This survey revealed that a number of the Company’s tenants employ a variety of environmentally friendly energy management initiatives, such as LED lighting, motion detection lighting systems, energy efficient windows and energy efficient appliances. With this information, the Company intends to engage and collaborate with its tenants to understand the Company’s climate-change related impacts and seek to identify areas of improvement.

Discussion and
Analysis

A significant majority of the Company’s leases are double net and triple net leases where the tenant generally controls the water management practices at the property. However, the Company recognizes that resource consumption can have a meaningful impact on the environment and works with its tenants to obtain information with respect to water management practices. During 2022, the Company conducted a tenant survey to gather information regarding property specific environmental features, including water management practices. This survey revealed that a number of the Company’s tenants employ a variety of environmentally friendly water management initiatives, such as water efficient plumbing fixtures, smart irrigation systems and water efficient appliances. With this information, the Company intends to engage and collaborate with its tenants to identify areas of improvement with respect to water management practices.

Discussion of approach to measuring,
incentivising and improving sustainability
impacts of tenants

Discussion and
Analysis

A significant majority of the Company’s leases are double net and triple net leases where the tenant generally controls the environmental practices and conditions at the property. The Company measures our tenant sustainability impacts by working with the tenants to obtain information regarding sustainability impacts. During 2022, the Company conducted a tenant survey to gather information regarding property specific sustainability features. One of the ways the Company seeks to incentivize and improve sustainability practices is through tenant improvement allowances that may be used by our tenants to make energy and water efficiency investments at our properties. The Company also educates its employees on evolving best-practice environmental strategies and intends to engage and collaborate with its tenants to understand the climate change-related impacts of our properties and seek to identify areas of improvement.

Climate Change
Adaptation

IF-RE-450a.1

Area of properties located in 100-year flood
zones, by property sector

Quantitative

36,634.46 m²

IF-RE-450a.2

Description of climate change risk exposure
analysis, degree of systematic portfolio
exposure, and strategies for mitigating risks

Discussion and
Analysis

The Company’s portfolio faces risks related to climate change. These include physical risks to our properties from severe storms, flooding and natural hazards, declining demand for leasing the Company’s properties or increasing costs associated with remediation and adaptation, and risks associated with transition to a lower-carbon economy related to, among other things, federal, state and local legislation and regulations that are being implemented or are under consideration to mitigate the effects of climate change as well as evolving tenant preferences. The Company’s primary strategy for mitigating climate change risks includes educating employees on evolving environmental strategies, developing relationships with its tenants and ESG vendor partners, seeking to engage and collaborate with its tenants to understand the climate-change related impacts of our properties, and identify areas of improvement.

1 Due to the majority of our lease agreements being double-net and triple-net leases, limited utility information was available. The energy consumption for our total portfolio was estimated using the U.S. EIA’s Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) 2018 for office buildings, our only property subsector.

2 No data was available for the total percentage of renewable energy of our portfolio, therefore, to the best of our knowledge, we are estimating 100% of electricity is from the grid.

3 Because 2022 is the first year Orion is preparing the SASB table, prior year data is not available and therefore change cannot be calculated.

4 We are assuming that all properties in the portfolio use water.

5 Due to the majority of our lease agreements being double-net or triple-net leases, limited utility information was available. The water consumption for our total portfolio was estimated using the U.S. EIA’s Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) 2012 for office buildings, our only property subsector. The 2012 survey is the most recent information from the U.S. EIA's CEBCS with water intensity assumptions.

6 Tenants of our triple net leases and double net leases are responsible for the management of the property, including utilities, and have been treated, for the purposes of the Table, as metered and sub-metered.
