Dear Fellow Shareholders,



In  2013,  our  strategy  to  reduce  indebtedness  and  strengthen  our  balance  sheet  was  rewarded  with 
investment-grade  ratings  from  both  Moody’s  Investor  Services,  Inc.  and  Standard  &  Poor’s  Rating 
Services  on  our  first  unsecured  senior  notes  offering.    These  inaugural  ratings  allowed  us  to  continue 
replacing  our  higher  cost  secured  debt  with  lower  cost  unsecured  debt,  while  improving  financial 
flexibility.   Lower financing costs allowed  us to  more effectively compete for the highest quality long-
term  leased  assets  and  we  exceeded  the  acquisition  volume  forecasted  when  the  year  began.    These 
investments extended our weighted-average lease term and improved the quality of our portfolio and cash 
flow, even as we maintained our disciplined underwriting standards, focusing on quality over quantity.   

The following is a summary of our 2013 accomplishments: 



.  We received a senior unsecured debt rating of Baa2 with 
a stable outlook from Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. and a senior unsecured debt rating of BBB- with a 
stable outlook from Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, which contributed to a reduction in our weighted-
average  interest  rate  on  outstanding  consolidated  indebtedness  by  approximately  74  basis  points, 
primarily by refinancing higher interest rate debt. 



.  We increased our quarterly common share dividend rate by 10% from 
$0.15 per share to $0.165 per share beginning with the dividend paid on January 15, 2014, or from $0.60 
per share to $0.66 per share on an annualized basis. 



Investments.  We increased our net assets by approximately $206.3 million as compared to 
2012,  primarily  by  completing  real  estate  acquisitions/build-to-suit  transactions,  including  joint  venture 
investments, for an aggregate capitalized cost of approximately $590.4 million. 



    We  entered  into  59  new  and  renewal  leases  totaling  approximately  5.7  million 
square  feet  and  increased  overall  portfolio  occupancy  to  97.6%  at  December  31,  2013,  compared  to 
97.3% at December 31, 2012. 



 .    We  generated  approximately  30.1%  of  our  rental  revenue  from 
leases ten years or longer, compared to approximately 23.1% for the year ended December 31, 2012. We 
improved  our  lease  rollover  profile  and  reduced  rental  revenue  from  single-tenant  leases  scheduled  to 
expire through 2018 to approximately 36.9% compared to approximately 44.7% at December 31, 2012. 
We extended our weighted-average lease term on a cash basis to approximately 11.2 years at December 
31, 2013 compared to approximately 6.9 years at December 31, 2012. 



 .    We  monetized  properties  for  an  aggregate  price  of  approximately 
$167.3 million and a weighted-average capitalization rate of 3.6%. Sale proceeds were primarily used to 
fund new investments and retire debt. 



.  We decreased our secured debt to approximately $1.2 billion at 
December 31, 2013 compared to $1.7 billion at December 31, 2012, which was equivalent to 23.9% and 
36.5% of our total gross assets, respectively. 

As we look ahead, we are excited by the opportunities to build an even better company. As part of our 
continuing efforts to create shareholder value in 2014, we expect to: 



Our objective is to lower our 
secured debt to approximately 20% or less of total gross assets.  We expect to achieve this objective by 
satisfying  secured  debt  as  it  matures,  acquiring  new  investments  without  secured  debt  and  procuring 

unsecured  debt.    As  of  December  31,  2013,  we  had  approximately  $368.3  million  of  debt  maturing 
through  2015  with  a  weighted-average  interest  rate  of  5.4%.    We  believe  the  current  interest  rate 
environment provides us with a continued opportunity to refinance existing debt on more attractive terms.  



.  We will continue to be focused on 
quality  as  opposed  to  quantity.    Build-to-suit  transactions  allow  us  to  acquire  new  properties  subject  to 
long-term leases, often with annual rent escalations.  Our pipeline of build-to-suit transactions, including 
forward  commitments,  continues  to  be  strong,  with  approximately  $366.1  million  of  build-to-suit 
transactions, including forward commitments, under contract.  



.  Our lease rollover exposure is 
primarily  in  office  and  industrial  assets.    Our  objective  is  to  manage  our  ratio  of  rental  revenue  from 
office assets to rental revenue from industrial assets, each with lease terms shorter than ten years, down to 
approximately  2:1  over  the  next  several  years.    Ultimately  this  will  make  our  portfolio  less  capital 
intensive to own and operate. 



  . 

  We  expect  to  continue  to  dispose  of  non-core  and 
underperforming  assets,  including  retail,  multi-tenant  and  vacant  properties.  An  on-going  part  of  our 
strategy  is  converting  properties  previously  occupied  by  a  single  tenant  into  multi-tenant  properties, 
which can support higher valuations upon stabilization.  

We believe that we are unique compared to our competitors because of the following attributes: 



.  As of December 31, 2013, our ratio of debt and preferred stock to 

total gross assets was approximate 43%.  We expect to maintain this ratio between 40-45% for 2014.   



  .    We  increased  our  common  share  dividend  by  65%  over  the  last 

four years and we believe we have capacity for further dividend growth over time. 



.  We generally retain more funds from operations than our peer 
group,  which  allows  us  to  reinvest  more  of  our  cash  flow  in  new  assets,  reduce  debt  and  improve  our 
growth prospects over time.  



.  Our portfolio is strategically diversified by geography, property type 
and  tenant  industry.    We  expect  our  diversification  to  continue  to  improve  as  we  grow.    As  of 
December 31,  2013,  we  had  equity  ownership  interests  in  approximately  220  consolidated  real  estate 
properties, located in 41 states and containing an aggregate of approximately 40.7 million square feet of 
space, approximately 97.6% of which was leased. In 2013, no tenant/guarantor represented greater than 
3.4% of our annual base GAAP rental revenue. 



.  Lexington offers a compelling investment proposition with 
attractive  value  based  on  our  funds  from  operations  multiple  and  the  private  market  valuation  of  our 
assets.   

I would like to thank our shareholders for their continued support, our employees for another year of hard 
work and success and our tenants for the opportunity to meet their real estate needs. 

Sincerely,  

T. WILSON EGLIN

Business



We are a Maryland REIT that owns a diversified portfolio of equity and debt investments in single-tenant properties and land. 
A majority of these properties and all land interests are subject to net or similar leases, where the tenant bears all or substantially all 
of the costs, including cost increases, for real estate taxes, utilities, insurance and ordinary repairs. We also provide investment 
advisory and asset management services to investors in the single-tenant area.

As of December 31, 2013, we had equity ownership interests in approximately 220 consolidated real estate properties, located 
in 41 states and containing an aggregate of approximately 40.7 million square feet of space, approximately 97.6% of which was 
leased. In 2013, 2012 and 2011, no tenant/guarantor represented greater than 10% of our annual base rental revenue.

In addition to our shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.0001 per share, classified as common stock, which we refer to as 
common shares, as of December 31, 2013, we had one outstanding class of beneficial interest classified as preferred stock, which 
we refer to as preferred shares: our 6.50% Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, which we 
refer to as our Series C Preferred Shares. Our common shares and Series C Preferred Shares are traded on the New York Stock 
Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbols “LXP” and “LXPPRC”, respectively.

We elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which 
we refer to as the Code, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 1993. We intend to continue to qualify as a REIT. 
If we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal corporate income taxes on our net taxable income 
that is currently distributed to our common shareholders.

Our  predecessor,  Lexington  Corporate  Properties,  Inc.,  was  organized  in  the  state  of  Delaware  in  October  1993  upon  the 
combination of two investment programs, Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P., which we refer to as LCIF, and Lepercq Corporate 
Income Fund II L.P., which we refer to as LCIF II, which were formed to acquire net-lease real estate assets providing current income. 
Our predecessor was merged into Lexington Corporate Properties Trust, a Maryland statutory REIT, on December 31, 1997. On 
December 31, 2006, Lexington Corporate Properties Trust changed its name to Lexington Realty Trust and was the successor in a 
merger with Newkirk Realty Trust, or Newkirk, which we refer to as the Newkirk Merger. All of Newkirk's operations were conducted, 
and all of its assets were held, through its master limited partnership, subsequently named The Lexington Master Limited Partnership, 
which we refer to as the MLP. As of December 31, 2008, the MLP was merged with and into us. 

We are structured as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT, as a portion of our business has been conducted through our 
operating partnership subsidiaries: (1) LCIF and (2) LCIF II. We refer to these subsidiaries as our operating partnerships and to 
limited partner interests in these operating partnerships as OP units. On December 30, 2013, LCIF II was merged with and into LCIF, 
with LCIF as the surviving entity. We are party to a funding agreement with LCIF under which we may be required to fund distributions 
made on account of OP units. The UPREIT structure enables us to acquire properties through an operating partnership by issuing 
OP units to a seller of property, as a form of consideration in exchange for the property. The outstanding OP units are generally 
redeemable for our common shares on a one OP unit for approximately 1.13 common shares basis, or, at our election in certain 
instances, cash. We believe that this structure facilitates our ability to raise capital and to acquire portfolio and individual properties 
by enabling us to structure transactions which may defer tax gains for a contributor of property. Prior to the effective date of the 
LCIF and LCIF II merger, there were approximately 3.6 million OP units outstanding which were convertible into approximately 
4.1 million common shares, assuming we satisfied redemptions entirely with common shares. Approximately 0.2 million former 
LCIF II OP units elected or were deemed to elect the cash consideration in the LCIF and LCIF II merger, by the February 1, 2014 
deadline, and were converted into the right to receive such cash consideration.



Our business continues to be impacted in a number of ways by the continued uncertainty in the overall economy and volatility 
in the capital markets. We encourage you to read “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report for a discussion of certain 
risks we are facing and “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 
7 of this Annual Report for a detailed discussion of the trends we believe are impacting our business.



General. Our current business strategy is focused on enhancing our cash flow growth and stability, growing our portfolio with 
attractive long-term leased investments and maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet to allow us to act on opportunities as 
they arise. Our core assets consist of general purpose, single-tenant net-leased office and industrial assets and land investments 
subject to long-term leases, in well-located and growing markets or which are critical to the tenant's business, but may also include 
other asset types subject to long-term net-leases, such as retail facilities, schools and medical facilities. We attempt to manage residual 
value risk associated with such other asset types by acquiring such assets primarily through joint ventures or disposing of such assets 
when there is sufficient remaining lease term to generate favorable sale prices. We believe our strategy of investing in core assets 
will provide shareholders with dividend growth and capital appreciation. 

We implement our strategy by (1) recycling capital in compliance with regulatory and contractual requirements, (2) refinancing 
or repurchasing outstanding indebtedness when advisable, including refinancing secured debt with unsecured debt, (3) effecting 
strategic transactions, portfolio and individual property acquisitions and dispositions, (4) expanding existing properties, (5) executing 
new  leases  with  tenants,  (6) extending  lease  maturities  in  advance  of  or  at  expiration  and  (7) exploring  new  business  lines  and 
operating platforms. Additionally, we may continue to enter into joint ventures and co-investment programs with third-party investors 
as a means of mitigating risk, creating additional growth and expanding the revenue realized from advisory and asset management 
activities as situations warrant.

Portfolio diversification is central to our investment strategy as we seek to create and maintain an asset base that provides steady, 
predictable and growing cash flows while being insulated against rising property operating expenses, regional recessions, industry-
specific downturns and fluctuations in property values and market rent levels. Regardless of capital market and economic conditions, 
we intend to stay focused on (1) enhancing operating results, (2) improving portfolio quality, (3) mitigating risks relating to interest 
rates and real estate cycles and (4) implementing strategies where our management skills and real estate expertise can add value. We 
attempt to maintain a portfolio of properties that provide for income and capital appreciation. The proportion of total return generated 
from rental income versus capital appreciation will vary by asset type, lease term, contractual rental escalations and market location. 
We believe that our business strategy will continue to improve our liquidity and strengthen our overall balance sheet while creating 
meaningful shareholder value.

4

In 2013, we became an issuer of investment-grade rated debt, which lowered our financing costs. We maintain a strong balance 
sheet primarily by (1) financing property acquisitions with non-recourse mortgage debt or unsecured corporate level borrowings at 
what we believe are favorable rates, (2) issuing equity when market conditions are favorable, (3) selling non-core and underperforming 
assets and (4) extending debt maturities and refinancing debt at lower rates. 

Investments. Our management has established a broad network of contacts to source investments, including major corporate 
tenants, developers and brokers. Prior to effecting any investment, our underwriting includes analyzing the (1) property's design, 
construction quality, efficiency, functionality and location with respect to the immediate sub-market, city and region, (2) lease integrity 
with respect to term, rental rate increases, corporate guarantees and property maintenance provisions, (3) present and anticipated 
conditions in the local real estate market and (4) prospects for selling or re-leasing the property on favorable terms in the event of a 
vacancy. To the extent of information publicly available or made available to us, we also evaluate each potential tenant's financial 
strength, growth prospects, competitive position within its respective industry and a property's strategic location and function within 
a tenant's operations or distribution systems. We believe that our comprehensive underwriting process is critical to the assessment 
of long-term profitability of any investment by us.

We seek investments from (1) creditworthy companies in sale-leaseback transactions for properties that are integral to the sellers'/
tenants' ongoing operations, (2) developers of newly constructed properties built to suit the needs of a corporate tenant by financing 
the project during the construction phase and/or agreeing to purchase the property upon completion of construction and occupancy 
by the tenant and (3) sellers of properties subject to an existing lease. We believe that our geographical diversification and acquisition 
experience will allow us to continue to compete effectively for such investments.

Strategic Transactions with Other Real Estate Investment Companies. We seek to capitalize on the unique investment experience 
of our management team as well as their network of relationships in the industry to achieve appropriate risk-adjusted yields through 
strategic transactions. Accordingly, we occasionally pursue the (1) acquisition of portfolios of assets and equity interests in companies 
with a significant number of single-tenant assets, including through mergers and acquisitions activity, and (2) participation in strategic 
partnerships, co-investment programs and joint ventures.

We  believe  that  entering  into  co-investment  programs  and  joint  ventures  with  institutional  investors  and  other  real  estate 
investment companies may mitigate our risk in certain assets and increase our return on equity to the extent we earn management 
or other fees. However, investments in co-investment programs and joint ventures limit our ability to make unilateral investment 
decisions relating to the assets and limit our ability to deploy capital. See Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors”, below.



There are numerous commercial developers, real estate companies, financial institutions, such as banks and insurance companies, 
and other investors with greater financial or other resources that compete with us in seeking properties for acquisition and tenants 
who  will  lease  space  in  these  properties.  Our  competitors  include  other  REITs,  pension  funds,  banks,  private  companies  and 
individuals.



Tenant Relations and Lease Compliance. We endeavor to maintain close contact with the tenants in the properties in which we 
have  an  interest  in  order  to  understand  their  financial  strength  and  future  real  estate  needs. We  monitor  the  financial,  property 
maintenance and other lease obligations of the tenants in properties in which we have an interest, through a variety of means, including 
periodic reviews of financial statements that we have access to and physical inspections of the properties. 

Extending Lease Maturities. Our property owner subsidiaries seek to extend tenant leases in advance of the lease expiration in 

order for us to maintain a balanced lease rollover schedule and high occupancy levels. 

Revenue Enhancing Property Expansions. Our property owner subsidiaries undertake expansions of properties based on lease 
requirements, tenant requirements or marketing opportunities. We believe that selective property expansions can provide attractive 
rates of return. 

Capital Recycling. Subject to regulatory and contractual requirements, we generally sell our interests in properties when we 
believe that the return realized from selling a property will exceed the expected return from continuing to hold such property and/
or there is a better use of the capital to be received upon sale. 

We continue to recycle capital with a focus on capturing the value of our non-core assets and reducing our exposure to suburban 
office properties. Our objectives are to achieve a better balance between office and industrial asset revenue for lease terms shorter 
than ten years and make investments in core assets with lease terms longer than ten years.

5

Occasionally, we provide seller financing as a means of efficiently disposing of an asset. As a result, if a buyer defaults under 

the seller financing, we will once again be the owner of the underlying asset.

Conversion to Multi-Tenant. If one of our property owner subsidiaries is unable to renew a single-tenant lease or if it is unable 
to find a replacement single tenant, we either attempt to sell our interest in the property or the property owner subsidiary may seek 
to market the property for multi-tenant use. When appropriate, we seek to sell our interests in these multi-tenant properties.

Property Management. From time to time, our property owner subsidiaries use property managers to manage certain properties. 
Our property management joint venture with an unaffiliated third party manages substantially all of these properties. We believe this 
joint venture provides us with (1) better management of our assets, (2) better tenant relationships, (3) revenue-enhancing opportunities 
and (4) cost efficiencies. 



General. Since becoming a public company, our principal sources of financing have been the public and private equity and debt 

markets, property specific debt, revolving loans, corporate level term loans, issuance of OP units and undistributed cash flows. 

Property  Specific  Debt.  Our  property  owner  subsidiaries  historically  financed  their  assets  with  non-recourse  secured  debt. 
However, beginning in 2008, the availability of single asset non-recourse financing became limited. As a result, we began to rely 
more on corporate level borrowings. Our property owner subsidiaries now seek non-recourse secured debt on a limited basis including 
when credit tenant lease financing is available. Credit tenant lease financing allows us to significantly or fully leverage the rental 
stream from an investment at, what we believe are, attractive rates.

Corporate Level Borrowings. As previously noted, we also use corporate level borrowings, such as revolving loans, term loans,  
and debt offerings. We expect to finance more of our operations with such corporate level borrowings as (1) non-recourse secured 
debt matures and (2) such corporate level borrowings are available on favorable terms. In 2013, we received a senior unsecured debt 
rating of Baa2 with a stable outlook from Moody’s Investor Services, Inc., or Moody’s, and a senior unsecured debt rating of BBB- 
with a stable outlook from Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, or S&P. Obtaining these ratings has lowered our debt financing costs. 
See - “Summary of 2013 Transactions and Recent Developments - Financings,” below.

Deleveraging and Interest Rate Reduction. In recent years, we have reduced our weighted-average interest rate and used our 
capital to deleverage our balance sheet by refinancing, satisfying and repurchasing indebtedness primarily taking advantage of the 
low interest rate environment by obtaining corporate level borrowings and credit tenant lease financings at attractive rates and using 
a portion of the proceeds to retire higher rate debt. As a result, our interest expense has been reduced. Our objective is to maintain 
a debt and preferred share to gross assets ratio of 40% to 45%. This ratio may increase over such levels at certain times due to the 
timing of financings.



From time to time, we raise capital by issuing common shares through (1) our At-The-Market, or ATM, offering program, 
initiated in 2013, (2) underwritten public offerings, (3) block trades and (4) our direct share purchase plan. The proceeds from our 
common share offerings are generally used for working capital, including to fund investments and to retire indebtedness. 



During 2013, we repurchased and retired all outstanding shares of our 7.55% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, 
par value $0.0001 per share, which we refer to as Series D Preferred Shares. We also make repurchases of our preferred shares in 
individual transactions when we believe the discount to the liquidation preference is attractive.



Certain members of our management have been in the business of investing in single-tenant net-lease properties since 1973. 
This experience has enabled us to provide advisory services to various net-lease investors, including institutional investors and high 
net-worth individuals. With the termination of certain of our co-investment programs in 2007 and our acquisition of NLS in 2012, 
advisory fees have declined in recent years. If and when we increase our co-investment joint venture activity, we expect advisory 
fees to increase. 

In 2012, LRA entered into an agreement to arrange for up to $100.0 million of investments on behalf of a third-party investor. 
Under the agreement, we will be a co-investor with a target to contribute 15% to each venture.We granted the third-party investor 
an exclusivity, until May 2015 and subject to certain conditions, on investment opportunities for (1) properties with a lease due to 
expire  in  less  than  10  years,  and  (2)  properties  that  are  dedicated  to  non-office  and  non-warehouse/distribution  uses,  including 
properties with tenants in the medical, hospital and health care industries.

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, an owner of real property 
may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under such property as 
well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. These liabilities may include government fines and 
penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the 
owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence or disposal of such substances. Although generally the tenants of the properties 
in which we have an interest are primarily responsible for any environmental damage and claims related to the leased premises, in 
the event of the bankruptcy or inability of a tenant of such premises to satisfy any obligations with respect to such environmental 
liability, a property owner subsidiary may be required to satisfy such obligations. In addition, as the owner of such properties, a 
property owner subsidiary may be held directly liable for any such damages or claims irrespective of the provisions of any lease.

From time to time, in connection with the conduct of our business and generally upon acquisition of a property and prior to 
surrender by a tenant, the property owner subsidiary authorizes the preparation of a Phase I and, when recommended, a Phase II 
environmental report with respect to its properties. Based upon such environmental reports and our ongoing review of the properties 
in which we have an interest, as of the date of this Annual Report, we are not aware of any environmental condition with respect to 
any of the properties in which we have an interest which we believe would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on 
our financial condition and/or results of operations. There can be no assurance, however, that (1) the discovery of environmental 
conditions, the existence or severity of which were previously unknown, (2) changes in law, (3) the conduct of tenants or (4) activities 
relating to properties in the vicinity of the properties in which we have an interest, will not expose us to material liability in the future. 
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 or may otherwise adversely affect the operations 
of the tenants of properties in which we have an interest, which would adversely affect our financial condition and/or results of 
operations.



In recent years, we have incurred non-cash impairment charges primarily related to (1) sales and other dispositions, or the 
possible sale or disposition, of assets at below book value and (2) vacancies of certain assets. In addition, we may continue to take 
similar non-cash impairment charges, which could be material in amount, due to (1) the current economic environment and (2) the 
implementation of our current business strategy, which may include sales of properties acquired in the Newkirk Merger that have a 
high cost basis because of our common share price at the time of the Newkirk Merger. Furthermore, we may take an impairment 
charge on a property subject to a non-recourse secured mortgage reducing the book value of such property to its estimated fair value 
which may be below the balance of the mortgage on our balance sheet. Upon foreclosure or other disposition of such property, we 
may recognize a gain on debt satisfaction equal to the difference between the fair value of the property and the balance of the mortgage.

The following summarizes certain of our transactions during 2013, including transactions disclosed elsewhere and in our other 

periodic reports.

Sales/Dispositions. With respect to sales/disposition activity, we:

– 

– 

disposed of our interests in properties to unaffiliated third parties for an aggregate gross disposition price of $117.8 
million; and

conveyed in foreclosure or via deed-in-lieu of foreclosure properties for full satisfaction of the related aggregate 
$49.5 million non-recourse mortgages.

Acquisitions/Investments. With respect to acquisitions/investments, we:

– 

– 

– 

– 

purchased ten properties for an aggregate cost of $440.4 million;

completed four build-to-suit transactions for an aggregate capitalized cost, including the buyout of a joint venture 
partner, of $105.5 million;

formed two joint ventures, one, in which we hold a 15% interest, acquired a portfolio of veterinary hospitals for 
$39.5 million, and the other, in which we invested $5.0 million, owns an office property investment in Baltimore, 
Maryland;

closed on a construction loan for a commitment of $85.0 million of which $35.4 million was funded in 2013;

7

 
– 

– 

continue to fund four on-going build-to-suit transactions not yet completed at December 31, 2013 with an aggregate  
estimated cost of $189.7 million of which $76.8 million was invested as of December 31, 2013; and

entered into a forward commitment to acquire a build-to-suit industrial property in Lewisburg, Tennessee for an 
estimated cost of $12.8 million. The property is subject to a 12-year net lease.

The 2013 consolidated property investments of $545.9 million discussed above have a weighted-average lease term by cash 
rents of approximately 54.3 years and an initial weighted-average cap rate of 6.2%. The weighted-average lease term is primarily 
impacted by the New York land transaction; excluding this transaction, the weighted-average lease term by cash rent was approximately 
18.8 years.

Leasing. Our property owner subsidiaries entered into 59 new leases and lease extensions encompassing an aggregate 5.7 million 

square feet, ending the year with our overall portfolio leased at 97.6% as of December 31, 2013.

Financing. With respect to financing activities, we:

–  

– 

–  

–  

–  

–  

–  

–  

–  

issued $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Senior Notes due 2023, or 4.25% Senior Notes, which 
are unsecured and rated investment grade by Moody’s and S&P;

refinanced our $300.0 million secured revolving credit facility with a $300.0 million unsecured revolving credit 
facility  with  KeyBank  National Association,  which  we  refer  to  as  KeyBank,  as  agent. We  also  increased  the 
availability from $300.0 million to $400.0 million. The unsecured revolving credit facility matures in February 
2017 but can be extended until February 2018 at our option. The unsecured revolving credit facility bears interest 
at LIBOR plus 0.95% to 1.725% based on our unsecured debt investment-grade credit rating from S&P and Moody’s;

in connection with the refinancing discussed above, we also procured a five-year $250.0 million unsecured term 
loan facility from KeyBank as agent. The unsecured term loan matures in February 2018 and requires regular 
payments of interest only at interest rates ranging from LIBOR plus 1.10% to 2.10% based on our unsecured debt 
investment-grade rating from S&P and Moody’s;

amended our $255.0 million secured term loan agreement maturing in 2019 to release the collateral securing such 
term loan; 

converted $54.9 million aggregate original principal amount of 6.00% Convertible Guaranteed Notes due 2030, 
or 6.00% Convertible Notes, for approximately 7.9 million common shares and aggregate cash payments of $3.3 
million plus accrued and unpaid interest;

entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the LIBOR component of $151.0 million in term loan borrowings 
at a weighted-average rate of 1.05%;

amended all agreements governing corporate level debt to release all subsidiary guarantors except LCIF;  

retired $437.0 million in property non-recourse mortgage debt with a weighted-average interest rate of 5.8%; and 

obtained $253.5 million in non-recourse mortgage financings with an initial weighted-average interest rate of 
4.51%.

Capital. With respect to capital activities, we:

–  

–  

–  

implemented an ATM offering program under which we may issue up to $100.0 million in common shares over 
the term of the program and we issued 3.4 million common shares under this program raising gross proceeds of 
$36.9 million;

issued an aggregate 36.0 million common shares in two public offerings and under our direct share purchase plan, 
raising net proceeds of approximately $399.6 million; and

repurchased and retired all outstanding Series D Preferred Shares (6.2 million shares) for an aggregate purchase 
price of approximately $155.6 million, including accrued and unpaid dividends.

Subsequent to December 31, 2013, we:

–  

acquired the completed industrial property in Rantoul, Illinois for an aggregate capitalized cost of $41.1 million; 

8

–  

–  

–  

–  

–  



purchased an office property in Parachute, Colorado for approximately $13.9 million. The property is subject to 
a 19-year net lease; 

borrowed $99.0 million under our term loan maturing in 2018 and entered into an interest rate swap agreement 
fixing the LIBOR component of the borrowing at 1.155%;

entered  into  a  forward  commitment  to  acquire  a  build-to-suit  office  property  in Auburn  Hills,  Michigan  for 
approximately $40.0 million. The property will be subject to a 14-year net lease;

repaid all borrowings under our line of credit; and

commenced a registered exchange offer to exchange any and all outstanding 4.25% Senior Notes issued in June 
2013 for an equal principal amount of new 4.25% Senior Notes due 2023 that have been registered under the 
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act.

Employees. As of December 31, 2013, we had 47 full-time employees. Lexington Realty Trust is a master employer and employee 

costs are allocated to subsidiaries as applicable.

Industry Segments. We primarily operate in one industry segment, single-tenant real estate assets.

Factors

Set forth below are material factors that may adversely affect our business and operations.



Wleases.

We focus our acquisition activities on real estate properties that are net leased to single tenants. Therefore, the financial failure 
of, or other default by, a single tenant under its lease is likely to cause a significant or complete reduction in the operating cash flow 
generated by the property leased to that tenant and might decrease the value of that property and result in a non-cash impairment 
charge. In addition, our property owner subsidiary will be responsible for 100% of the operating costs following a vacancy at a single-
tenant building.

Wtenants.

Revenues from several tenants and/or their guarantors constitute a significant percentage of our base rental revenues. The default, 
financial distress or bankruptcy of any of the tenants and/or guarantors of these properties could cause interruptions in the receipt 
of lease revenues and/or result in vacancies, which would reduce the property owner subsidiary's revenues and increase operating 
costs until the affected property is re-let, and could decrease the ultimate sale value of that property. Upon the expiration or other 
termination of the leases that are currently in place with respect to these properties, the property owner subsidiary may not be able 
to re-lease the vacant property at a comparable lease rate, at all, or without incurring additional expenditures in connection with the 
re-leasing. See “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations - Overview - Leasing 
Trends” in Part II, Item 7 of this Annual Report for further discussion.

Ytenants.

Some of our tenants are rated by Moody's, Fitch, Inc. and/or S&P. Any such credit ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by 
these credit rating agencies and we cannot assure you that any such ratings will not be changed or withdrawn by these rating agencies 
in the future if, in their judgment, circumstances warrant. If these rating agencies assign a lower-than-expected rating or reduce or 
withdraw, or indicate that they may reduce or withdraw the credit rating of a tenant, the value of our investment in any properties 
leased by such tenant could significantly decline. Furthermore, in a bankruptcy, leases are treated differently than unsecured debt.

charges.

We periodically evaluate our real estate investments and other assets for impairment indicators. The judgment regarding the 
existence of impairment indicators is based on GAAP, which include a variety of factors such as market conditions, the status of 
significant leases, the financial condition of major tenants and other factors that could affect the cash flow or value of an investment. 
During 2013, 2012 and 2011, we incurred $34.6 million, $10.0 million and $117.4 million, respectively, of non-cash impairment 
charges, excluding loan losses recorded on loans receivable. A substantial portion of these impairments related to assets acquired in 
the Newkirk Merger that had a relatively high cost basis because of our common share price at the time of the Newkirk Merger. We 
may continue to take similar non-cash impairment charges, which could affect the implementation of our current business strategy. 
These impairments could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. 

Furthermore, we may take an impairment charge on a property subject to a non-recourse secured mortgage which reduces the 
book value of such property to its fair value, which may be below the balance of the mortgage on our balance sheet. Upon foreclosure 
or other disposition, we may be required to recognize a gain on debt satisfaction equal to the difference between the fair value of the 
property and the balance of the mortgage.

delinquencyloss.

Our interests in loans receivable are generally non-recourse and secured by real estate properties owned by borrowers that were 
unable to obtain similar financing from a commercial bank. These loans are subject to many risks including delinquency. The ability 
of a borrower to repay a loan secured by a real estate property is typically and primarily dependent upon the successful operation of 
such property rather than upon the existence of independent income or assets of the borrower. If a borrower were to default on a 
loan, it is possible that we would not recover the full value of the loan as the collateral may be non-performing.

10

In 2013, we foreclosed on one of our loans receivable, which was secured by an office property in Schaumburg, Illinois. The 
loan had an outstanding balance of $21.6 million (not including default interest and other penalties), which we believe was less than 
the estimated fair value of the property. Also, as of December 31, 2013, the tenant of the property in Westmont, Illinois, which we 
sold in 2007 but issued a purchase mortgage to the buyer, terminated its lease effective November 2013. Accordingly, we reduced 
our carrying value to an estimated fair value of $12.6 million and recorded a loan loss of $13.9 million.

Wspace.

Upon the expiration of current leases for space located in properties in which we have an interest, our property owner subsidiaries 
may not be able to re-let all or a portion of such space, or the terms of re-letting (including the cost of concessions to tenants and 
leasing commissions) may be less favorable than current lease terms or market rates. If our property owner subsidiaries are unable 
to promptly re-let all or a substantial portion of the space located in their respective properties, or if the rental rates a property owner 
subsidiary receives upon re-letting are significantly lower than current rates, our earnings and ability to satisfy our debt service 
obligations and to make expected distributions to our shareholders may be adversely affected due to the resulting reduction in rent 
receipts and increase in property operating costs. There can be no assurance that our property owner subsidiaries will be able to retain 
tenants in any of our properties upon the expiration of leases.

Wsuf
shares. 

Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness, to make distributions on our common shares and to fund 
our operations, working capital and capital expenditures, depends on our ability to generate cash in the future. To a certain extent, 
our cash flow is subject to general economic, industry, financial, competitive, operating, legislative, regulatory and other factors, 
many of which are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations 
or that future sources of cash will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay amounts due on our indebtedness or 
to make distributions on our common shares and fund our other liquidity needs. Additionally, if we incur additional indebtedness in 
connection with future acquisitions or development projects or for any other purpose, our debt service obligations could increase.

We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness 

or obtain additional financing will depend on, among other things:

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

our financial condition and market conditions at the time; and

restrictions in the agreements governing our indebtedness.

As a result, we may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we do not 
generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and additional borrowings or refinancings or proceeds of asset sales or other sources 
of cash are not available to us, we may not have sufficient cash to enable us to meet all of our obligations. Accordingly, if we cannot 
service our indebtedness, we may have to take actions such as seeking additional equity, or delaying strategic acquisitions and 
alliances or capital expenditures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our operations. We cannot assure you that we 
will be able to effect any of these actions on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

afoperations.

Our growth strategy is based on the acquisition and development of additional properties and related assets. In the context of 
our  business  plan,  “development”  generally  means  an  expansion  or  renovation  of  an  existing  property  or  the  financing  and/or 
acquisition  of  a  newly  constructed  build-to-suit  property.  For  newly  constructed  build-to-suit  properties,  we  may  (1)  provide  a 
developer with either a combination of financing for construction of a build-to-suit property or a commitment to acquire a property 
upon completion of construction of a build-to-suit property and commencement of rent from the tenant or (2) acquire a property 
subject to a lease and engage a developer to complete construction of a build-to-suit property as required by the lease.

Our plan to grow through the acquisition and development of new properties could be adversely affected by trends in the real 
estate and financing businesses. The consummation of any future acquisitions will be subject to satisfactory completion of an extensive 
valuation analysis and due diligence review and to the negotiation of definitive documentation. Our ability to implement our strategy 
may be impeded because we may have difficulty finding new properties and investments at attractive prices that meet our investment 
criteria, negotiating with new or existing tenants or securing acceptable financing. If we are unable to carry out our strategy, our 
financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Acquisitions of additional properties entail the risk that 
investments will fail to perform in accordance with expectations, including operating and leasing expectations.

11

Redevelopment and new project development are subject to numerous risks, including risks of construction delays, cost overruns 
or force majeure events that may increase project costs, new project commencement risks such as the receipt of zoning, occupancy 
and other required governmental approvals and permits, and the incurrence of development costs in connection with projects that 
are not pursued to completion.

Some of our acquisitions and developments may be financed using the proceeds of periodic equity or debt offerings, lines of 
credit or other forms of secured or unsecured financing that may result in a risk that permanent financing for newly acquired projects 
might not be available or would be available only on disadvantageous terms. If permanent debt or equity financing is not available 
on acceptable terms to refinance acquisitions undertaken without permanent financing, further acquisitions may be curtailed, or cash 
available to satisfy our debt service obligations and distributions to shareholders may be adversely affected.

affactors.

Acquisitions of commercial properties entail certain risks, such as (1) underwriting assumptions such as occupancy,  rental rates 
and expenses may differ from estimates, (2) the properties may become subject to environmental liabilities that we were unaware 
of at the time we acquired the property despite any environmental testing, (3) we may have difficulty obtaining financing on acceptable 
terms or paying the operating expenses and debt service associated with acquired properties prior to sufficient occupancy and (4) 
projected exit strategies may not come to fruition due to a variety of factors such as market conditions at time of dispositions.

We may not be successful in identifying suitable real estate properties or other assets that meet our acquisition criteria. We may 
also fail to complete acquisitions or investments on satisfactory terms. Failure to identify or complete acquisitions could slow our 
growth, which could, in turn, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Wactivities.

From time to time, we engage in, or provide capital to developers who are engaged in, build-to-suit activities. We face uncertainties, 
associated with a developer's performance and timely completion of a project, including the performance or timely completion by 
contractors and subcontractors. If a developer, contractor or subcontractor fails to perform, we may resort to legal action to compel 
performance, remove the developer or rescind the purchase or construction contract.

A developer's performance may also be affected or delayed by conditions beyond the developer's control. We attempt to mitigate 

such conditions by providing for penalties and related grace periods in the underlying lease.

We may incur additional risks when we make periodic progress payments or other advances to developers before completion 
of construction. These and other factors can result in increased costs of a project or loss of our investment. We also rely on third-
party construction managers and/or engineers to monitor the construction activities.

We rely on rental income and expense projections and estimates of the fair market value of a property upon completion of 
construction when agreeing upon a purchase price at the time we acquire the property, which may be up to two years prior to the 
estimated date of completion. If our projections are inaccurate or markets change, we may pay more than the fair value of a property.

risks.

Our multi-tenant properties involve risks not typically encountered in real estate properties which are operated by a single tenant. 
The ownership of multi-tenant properties could expose us to the risk that a sufficient number of suitable tenants may not be found 
to enable the property to operate profitably and provide a return to us. This risk may be compounded by the failure of existing tenants 
to satisfy their obligations due to various factors. These risks, in turn, could cause a material adverse impact to our results of operations 
and business.

Multi-tenant properties are also subject to tenant turnover and fluctuation in occupancy rates, which could affect our operating 
results. Furthermore, multi-tenant properties expose us to the risk of potential "CAM slippage," which may occur when the actual 
cost of taxes, insurance and maintenance at the property exceeds the operating expenses paid by tenants and/or the amounts budgeted.

12

Wmatters.

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, as an owner of real property, 
our property owner subsidiaries may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, 
on, in or under the properties in which we have an interest as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic 
substances. These liabilities may include government fines and penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. 
These laws may impose liability without regard to whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the presence or disposal of those 
substances. This liability may be imposed on our property owner subsidiaries in connection with the activities of an operator of, or 
tenant at,  the  property. The  cost of  any  required  remediation, removal, fines  or  personal or  property  damages,  and our  liability 
therefore, could be significant and could exceed the value of the property and/or our aggregate assets. In addition, the presence of 
those substances, or the failure to properly dispose of or remove those substances, may adversely affect a property owner subsidiary's 
ability to sell or rent that property or to borrow using that property as collateral, which, in turn, would reduce our revenues and ability 
to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make distributions.

A property can also be adversely affected either through physical contamination or by virtue of an adverse effect upon value 
attributable to the migration of hazardous or toxic substances, or other contaminants that have or may have emanated from other 
properties. Although the tenants of the properties in which we have an interest are primarily responsible for any environmental 
damages and claims related to the leased premises, in the event of the bankruptcy or inability of any of the tenants of the properties 
in which we have an interest to satisfy any obligations with respect to the property leased to that tenant, our property owner subsidiary 
may be required to satisfy such obligations. In addition, we may be held directly liable for any such damages or claims irrespective 
of the provisions of any lease.

From time to time, in connection with the conduct of our business, our property owner subsidiaries authorize the preparation of 
Phase I environmental reports and, when recommended, Phase II environmental reports, with respect to their properties.  There can 
be no assurance that these environmental reports will reveal all environmental conditions at the properties in which we have an 
interest or that the following will not expose us to material liability in the future:

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

the discovery of previously unknown environmental conditions;

changes in law;

activities of tenants; or

activities relating to properties in the vicinity of the properties in which we have an interest.

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 or may otherwise adversely affect the operations 
of the tenants of the properties in which we have an interest, which could adversely affect our financial condition or results of 
operations.

business.

Legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business require time and effort.  The outcomes of legal proceedings are 
subject to significant uncertainty. In the event that we are unsuccessful defending or prosecuting these proceedings, as applicable, 
we may incur a judgment or fail to realize an award of damages that could have an adverse effect on our financial condition.

afcondition.

We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage and rent loss insurance on certain of the properties in which we have 
an interest, with policy specifications and insured limits that we believe are customary for similar properties. However, with respect 
to those properties where the leases do not provide for abatement of rent under any circumstances, we generally do not maintain rent 
loss insurance. In addition, certain of our leases require the tenant to maintain all insurance on the property, and the failure of the 
tenant to maintain the proper insurance could adversely impact our investment in a property in the event of a loss. Furthermore, there 
are certain types of losses, such as losses resulting from wars, terrorism or certain acts of God, that generally are not insured because 
they are either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, 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 could adversely affect our 
financial condition and results of operations.

13

ef
liquidity.

The types of terrorist attacks since 2001, on-going and future military conflicts and the continued unrest in the Middle East may 
affect commodity prices and interest rates, among other things. An increase in interest rates may increase our costs of borrowing, 
leading to a reduction in our earnings. An increase in the price of oil will also cause an increase in our operating costs, which may 
not be reimbursed by our tenants. Also, terrorist acts could result in significant damages to, or loss of, our properties or the value 
thereof.

We and the tenants of the properties in which we have an interest 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. We may also be prohibited under the applicable lease from 
passing all or a portion of the cost of such insurance through to the tenant. 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 could adversely affect our financial condition.

afproperties.

There are numerous commercial developers, real estate companies, financial institutions, such as banks and insurance companies, 
and other investors, such as pension funds, private companies and individuals, with greater financial and other resources than we 
have that compete with us in seeking investments and tenants. Due to our focus on single-tenant properties located throughout the 
United States, and because most competitors are often locally and/or regionally focused, we do not always encounter the same 
competitors in each market. Our competitors include other REITs, financial institutions, insurance companies, pension funds, private 
companies and individuals. This competition may result in a higher cost for properties and lower returns and impact our ability to 
grow.

efef
price.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal 
control over financial reporting. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting, as such standards 
may be modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we will be required to disclose such failure and our financial reporting 
may not be relied on by most investors. Moreover, effective internal control, particularly related to revenue recognition, is necessary 
for us to produce reliable financial reports and to maintain our qualification as a REIT and is important in helping prevent financial 
fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, our REIT 
qualification could be jeopardized, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information and the trading price of our 
debt and equity securities could drop significantly.

Winvestments.

Our joint venture investments involve risks not otherwise present for investments made solely by us, including the possibility 
that our partner might, at any time, become bankrupt, have different interests or goals than we do, or take action contrary to our 
expectations,  its  previous  instructions  or  our  instructions,  requests,  policies  or  objectives,  including  our  policy  with  respect  to 
maintaining our qualification as a REIT. Other risks of joint venture investments include impasses on decisions, such as a sale, 
because  neither  we  nor  our  partner  has  full  control  over  the  joint  venture. Also,  there  is  no  limitation  under  our  organizational 
documents as to the amount of funds that may be invested in joint ventures.

illiquid.

Investments in real estate are relatively illiquid and, therefore, our ability to change our portfolio promptly in response to changed 
conditions is limited. Our Board of Trustees may establish investment criteria or limitations as it deems appropriate, but currently 
does not limit the number or type of properties in which we may seek to invest or on the concentration of investments in any one 
geographic region.

interest.

GAAP is subject to interpretation by various bodies formed to promulgate and interpret appropriate accounting principles such 
as the Financial Accounting Standards Board. A change in these principles or interpretations could have a significant effect on our 
reported financial results, could affect the reporting of transactions completed before the announcement of a change and could affect 
the business practices and decisions of the tenants of properties in which we have an interest.

Wlosses.

We have used derivatives to hedge certain of our liabilities and we currently have interest rate swap agreements in place. As of 
December 31, 2013, we have aggregate interest rate swap agreements on $406.0 million of borrowings. The counterparties of these 
arrangements  are  major  financial  institutions;  however,  we  are  exposed  to  credit  risk  in  the  event  of  non-performance  by  the 
counterparties. This has certain risks, including losses on a hedge position, which may reduce the return on our investments. Such 
losses may exceed the amount invested in such instruments. In addition, counterparties to a hedging arrangement could default on 
their obligations. We may have to pay certain costs, such as transaction fees or breakage costs, related to hedging transactions.

Tapproval.

Subject to our fundamental investment policy to maintain our qualification as a REIT and invest in core assets, our Board of 
Trustees will determine our investment and financing policies, growth strategy and our debt, capitalization, distribution, acquisition, 
disposition and operating policies.

Our Board of Trustees may revise or amend these strategies and policies at any time without a vote by shareholders. Changes 
made by our Board of Trustees may not serve the interests of debt or equity security holders and could adversely affect our financial 
condition or results of operations, including our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations, distribute cash to shareholders and 
qualify as a REIT. Accordingly, shareholders' control over changes in our strategies and policies is limited to the election of trustees.

Wpersonnel.

We are dependent upon key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed. We are dependent on certain of our executive 
officers for business direction. We have employment agreements, which expire in January 2015, with each of T. Wilson Eglin, our 
Chief Executive Officer and President, E. Robert Roskind, our Chairman, Richard J. Rouse, our Vice Chairman and Chief Investment 
Officer, and Patrick Carroll, our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. However, an employment agreement 
does not itself prevent an employee from resigning.

Our inability to retain the services of any of our key personnel or our loss of any of their services could adversely impact our 

operations. We do not have key man life insurance coverage on our executive officers.

us.

E. Robert Roskind, our Chairman, beneficially owns a significant number of OP units, and as a result, may face different and 
more adverse tax consequences than our other shareholders will if we sell our interests in certain properties or reduce mortgage 
indebtedness on certain properties. Our Chairman may, therefore, have different objectives than us and our debt and equity security 
holders regarding the appropriate pricing and timing of any sale of such properties or reduction of mortgage debt. In the event of an 
appearance of a conflict of interest and in accordance with our policy regarding related party transactions, Mr. Roskind is required 
to recuse himself from any decision making or seek a waiver of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which will be reviewed 
by the non-conflicted members of our Board of Trustees or the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees.

In addition, Mr. Roskind's employment agreement with us permits Mr. Roskind to spend approximately one third of his business 
time on the affairs of The LCP Group L.P. and its affiliates. While Mr. Roskind is required to prioritize his business time to address 
our needs ahead of The LCP Group L.P., Mr. Roskind and The LCP Group L.P. may engage in a wide variety of activities in the real 
estate business which may result in conflicts of interest with respect to matters affecting us.

15

afoperations.

We cannot predict what laws or regulations may be enacted in the future, how future laws or regulations will be administered 
or interpreted, or how future laws or regulations will affect our properties. Compliance with new laws or regulations, or stricter 
interpretation of existing laws, may require us or our tenants to incur significant expenditures, impose significant liability, restrict 
or prohibit business activities and could cause a material adverse effect on our results of operations.



af
prospects.

We have a substantial amount of debt.  We are more leveraged than certain of our competitors.  We have incurred, and may 
continue to incur, direct and indirect indebtedness in furtherance of our activities.  Neither our declaration of trust nor any policy 
statement formerly adopted by our Board of Trustees limits either the total amount of indebtedness that we may incur, and accordingly, 
we could become even more highly leveraged.  As of December 31, 2013, our total consolidated indebtedness was approximately 
$2.1 billion and we had approximately $443.4 million available for us to borrow under our principal credit agreement, subject to 
covenant compliance.

Our  substantial  indebtedness  could  adversely  affect  our  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations  and  have  important 

consequences to us and our debt and equity security holders. For example, it could:

(cid:127)  make it more difficult for us to satisfy our indebtedness and debt service obligations and adversely affect our 

ability to pay distributions;

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions;

require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to the payment of interest on and 
principal of our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of cash to fund working capital, capital expenditures 
and other general corporate purposes;

limit  our  ability  to  borrow  money  or  sell  stock  to  fund  our  development  projects,  working  capital,  capital 
expenditures, general corporate purposes or acquisitions;

restrict us from making strategic acquisitions or exploiting business opportunities;

place us at a disadvantage compared to competitors that have less debt; and

limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate.

In  addition,  the  agreements  that  govern  our  current  indebtedness  contain,  and  the  agreements  that  may  govern  any  future 
indebtedness that we may incur may contain, financial and other restrictive covenants that will limit our ability to engage in activities 
that may be in our long-term best interests. Our failure to comply with those covenants could result in an event of default that, if not 
cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of our debt.

efprofitability
securities.

We have exposure to market risks relating to increases in interest rates due to our variable-rate debt. An increase in interest rates 
may increase our costs of borrowing on existing variable-rate indebtedness, leading to a reduction in our earnings. As of December 31, 
2013, we had $48.0 million outstanding in consolidated variable-rate indebtedness that was not subject to an interest rate swap 
agreement. The level of our variable-rate indebtedness, along with the interest rate associated with such variable-rate indebtedness, 
may  change  in  the  future  and  materially  affect  our  interest  costs  and  earnings.  In  addition,  our  interest  costs  on  our  fixed-rate 
indebtedness may increase if we are required to refinance our fixed-rate indebtedness upon maturity at higher interest rates.

16

Furthermore, the public valuation of our common shares is related primarily to the earnings that we derive from rental income 
with respect to the properties in which we have an interest and not from the underlying appraised value of the properties themselves. 
As a result, interest rate fluctuations and capital market conditions can affect the market value of our common shares. For instance, 
if interest rates rise, the market price of our common shares may decrease because potential investors seeking a higher yield than 
they would receive from our common shares may sell our common shares in favor of higher yielding securities.  In addition, fixed 
rate debt securities generally decline in value as market rates rise because the premium, if any, over market interest rates will decline.

af
efus.

In recent years, the United States credit markets have experienced significant dislocations and liquidity disruptions which have 
caused the spreads on prospective debt financings to widen considerably. These circumstances have materially impacted liquidity 
in the debt markets, making financing terms for borrowers less attractive, and in certain cases have resulted in the unavailability of 
certain types of debt financing. Continued uncertainty in the credit markets may negatively impact our ability to access additional 
debt financing on reasonable terms, which may negatively affect our ability to make acquisitions. A prolonged downturn in the credit 
markets may cause us to seek alternative sources of potentially less attractive financing and may require us to adjust our business 
plan accordingly. In addition, these factors may make it more difficult for us to sell properties or may adversely affect the price we 
receive for properties that we do sell, as prospective buyers may experience increased costs of capital or difficulties in obtaining 
capital. These events in the credit markets have also had an adverse effect on other financial markets in the United States, which 
may make it more difficult or costly for us to raise capital through the issuance of our common shares or preferred shares. These 
disruptions in the financial markets may have other adverse effects on us or the economy in general.

af
activities.

Our unsecured revolving credit facility, unsecured term loans and indentures governing our 4.25% Senior Notes and 6.00% 
Convertible Notes contain certain cross-default and cross-acceleration provisions as well as customary restrictions, requirements 
and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness and consummate mergers, consolidations or sales of all or substantially all 
of our assets. Our ability to borrow under both our unsecured revolving credit facility and our unsecured term loan is also subject to 
compliance with certain other covenants. In addition, failure to comply with our covenants could cause a default under the applicable 
debt instrument and we may then be required to repay such debt with capital from other sources. Under those circumstances other 
sources of capital may not be available to us or be available only on unattractive terms. Additionally, our ability to satisfy current or 
prospective lenders' insurance requirements may be adversely affected if lenders generally insist upon greater insurance coverage 
against acts of terrorism than is available to us in the marketplace or on commercially reasonable terms.

We  rely  on  debt  financing,  including  borrowings  under  our  unsecured  revolving  credit  facility,  unsecured  term  loan,  debt 
securities, and debt secured by individual properties, for working capital, including to finance our investment activities. If we are 
unable to obtain financing from these or other sources, or to refinance existing indebtedness upon maturity, our financial condition 
and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Aafcondition.

The credit ratings assigned to our debt could change based upon, among other things, our results of operations and financial 
condition or the real estate industry generally. These ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies, and we 
cannot assure you that any rating will not be changed or withdrawn by a rating agency in the future if, in its judgment, circumstances 
warrant. Moreover, these credit ratings do not apply to our common shares and are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold any 
other securities.  Any downgrade of our debt could materially adversely affect the market price of our debt securities and our common 
shares. If any of the credit rating agencies that have rated our debt downgrades or lowers its credit rating, or if any credit rating 
agency indicates that it has placed any such rating on a so-called “watch list” for a possible downgrading or lowering or otherwise 
indicates that its outlook for that rating is negative, it could also have a material adverse effect on our costs and availability of capital, 
which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our ability to 
satisfy our debt service obligations and to make dividends and distributions on our common shares and preferred shares. 

17

Wrefinancings.

A significant number of the properties in which we have an interest are subject to mortgage or other secured notes with balloon 
payments due at maturity. In addition, our corporate level borrowings require interest only payments with all principal due at maturity.

As of December 31, 2013, the consolidated scheduled balloon payments, for the next five calendar years, are as follows ($ in 

millions):

(1) Assumes 6.00% Convertible Notes due in January 2030 are put to us in 2017.

The ability to make the scheduled balloon payment on a non-recourse mortgage note will depend upon (1) in the event we 
determine to contribute capital, our cash balances and the amount available under our unsecured credit facility and (2) the property 
owner subsidiary's ability either to refinance the related mortgage debt or to sell the related property. If the property owner subsidiary 
is unable to refinance or sell the related property, the property may be conveyed to the lender through foreclosure or other means or 
the property owner subsidiary may declare bankruptcy. 

Wlenders.

A significant number of the properties in which we have an interest are subject to non-recourse mortgages, which generally 
provide that a lender's only recourse upon an event of default is to foreclose on the property. During 2013, four properties in which 
we had an interest, were sold via deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or in foreclosure. As a result, we lost all of our interest in these properties 
and any future opportunities to re-tenant these properties. The loss of a significant number of properties to foreclosure or bankruptcy 
could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, relationships with lenders and ability to obtain additional 
financing in the future.

In addition, a lender may attempt to trigger a carve out to the non-recourse nature of a mortgage loan. To the extent a lender is 
successful, the ability of our property owner subsidiary to return the property to the lender may be inhibited and we may be liable 
for all or a portion of such loan.


provisions.

As of December 31, 2013, the mortgages on certain of our properties were cross-collateralized. To the extent that any of the 
properties in which we have an interest are cross-collateralized, any default by the property owner subsidiary under the mortgage 
note relating to one property will result in a default under the financing arrangements relating to any other property that also provides 
security for that mortgage note or is cross-collateralized with such mortgage note.

In addition, substantially all of our corporate level borrowings contain cross-default and/or cross-acceleration provisions, which 

may be triggered if we default on certain indebtedness in excess of certain thresholds.

ef
guaranty.

The holders of our secured debt may foreclose on the assets securing such debt, reducing the cash flow from the foreclosed 
property available for payment of unsecured debt and any related guaranty. The holders of any of our secured debt also would have 
priority over unsecured creditors in the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or similar proceeding.


occur.

As of December 31, 2013, only we and/or LCIF are borrowers or a guarantor of our unsecured indebtedness.  In the event of a 
bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our non-guarantor subsidiaries, holders of non-guarantor subsidiary debt, including 
trade creditors, will generally be entitled to payment of their claims from the assets of non-guarantor subsidiaries before any assets 
are made available for distribution to us or any of the subsidiary guarantors.

 In addition, any subsidiary guarantor, including LCIF, will be deemed released if such subsidiary guarantor’s obligations as a 
borrower or guarantor under our principal credit agreement terminates pursuant to the terms of our principal credit agreement or if 
our principal credit agreement is amended to remove certain or all of the subsidiary guarantors as borrowers or guarantors. To the 
extent any of our unsecured indebtedness is no longer guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries in the future, such debt will be our 
obligations exclusively. All of our assets are held through our operating partnership and our other subsidiaries. Consequently, our 
cash flow and our ability to meet our debt service obligations depends in large part upon the cash flow of our subsidiaries and the 
payment of funds by our subsidiaries to us in the form of distributions or otherwise.


guarantor.

Under the federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws, a guarantee could be voided, or 
claims in respect of a guarantee could be subordinated to all other debts of that guarantor if, among other things, the guarantor, at 
the time it incurred the debt evidenced by its guarantee:

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

issued the guarantee to delay, hinder or defraud present or future creditors; or

received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for the incurrence of such guarantee, and:

(cid:127)  was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of such incurrence;

(cid:127)  was  engaged  or  about  to  engage  in  a  business  or  transaction  for  which  the  guarantor’s  remaining 

unencumbered assets constituted unreasonably small capital to carry on its business; or

(cid:127) 

intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay the debts as they 
mature.

In addition, any payment by that guarantor pursuant to its guarantee could be voided and required to be returned to the guarantor, 

or to a fund for the benefit of the creditors of the guarantor.

The measures of insolvency for purposes of these fraudulent transfer laws will vary depending upon the law applied in any 
proceeding to determine whether a fraudulent transfer has occurred. Generally, however, a guarantor would be considered insolvent 
if, at the time it incurred the debt:

(cid:127) 

(cid:127) 

the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the fair saleable value of all of its assets;

the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable 
liability on its existing debts, including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and mature; or

(cid:127) 

it could not pay its debts as they become due.

19

We cannot be sure as to the standards that a court would use to determine whether or not any guarantor was solvent at the relevant 
time, or, regardless of the standard that the court uses, that the issuance of such guaranty would not be voided or any such guaranty 
would not be subordinated to that of such guarantor’s other debt. If a case were to occur, any such guaranty could also be subject to 
the claim that, since the guaranty was incurred for our benefit, and only indirectly for the benefit of such guarantor, the obligations 
of such guarantor were incurred for less than fair consideration. A court could thus void the obligations under the guarantees or 
subordinate the guarantees to such guarantor’s other debt or take other action detrimental to holders of our unsecured indebtedness.



purposes.

We believe that we have met the requirements for qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes beginning with our 
taxable year ended December 31, 1993, and we intend to continue to meet these requirements in the future. However, qualification 
as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Code, for which there are only limited judicial 
or administrative interpretations. The Code provisions and income tax regulations applicable to REITs are more complex than those 
applicable to corporations. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect 
our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT. No assurance can be given that we have qualified or will remain qualified as a REIT. In 
addition, no assurance can be given that legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not significantly 
change the requirements for qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. If we do not qualify 
as a REIT, we would not be allowed a deduction for distributions to shareholders in computing our net taxable income. In addition, 
our income would be subject to tax at the regular corporate rates. We also could be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the 
four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost. Cash available to satisfy our debt service obligations and 
distributions to our shareholders would be significantly reduced or suspended for each year in which we do not qualify as a REIT. 
In that event, we would not be required to continue to make distributions. Although we currently intend to continue to qualify as a 
REIT,  it  is  possible  that  future  economic,  market,  legal,  tax  or  other  considerations  may  cause  us,  without  the  consent  of  the 
shareholders, to revoke the REIT election or to otherwise take action that would result in disqualification.

W
us.

A REIT will incur a 100% tax on the net income from a prohibited transaction. Generally, a prohibited transaction includes a 
sale or disposition of property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business. While we believe 
that the dispositions of our assets pursuant to our investment strategy should not be treated as prohibited transactions, whether a 
particular sale will be treated as a prohibited transaction depends on the underlying facts and circumstances. We have not sought and 
do not intend to seek a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding any dispositions. Accordingly, there can be no assurance 
that our dispositions of such assets will not be subject to the prohibited transactions tax. If all or a significant portion of those 
dispositions were treated as prohibited transactions, we would incur a significant U.S. federal income tax liability, which could have 
a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

flexibility.

To maintain our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we are generally required to distribute to our shareholders at 
least 90% of our taxable income for that calendar year. Our taxable income is determined without regard to any deduction for dividends 
paid and by excluding net capital gains. To the extent that we satisfy the 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 in any year are less than the sum of (i) 85% of our ordinary 
income for that year, (ii) 95% of our capital gain net income for that year and (iii) 100% of our undistributed taxable income from 
prior years. We intend to continue to make distributions to our shareholders to comply with the distribution requirements of the Code 
and to reduce exposure to federal income and nondeductible excise taxes. Differences in timing between the receipt of income and 
the payment of expenses in determining our taxable income and the effect of required debt amortization payments could require us 
to borrow funds on a short-term basis in order to meet the distribution requirements that are necessary to achieve the tax benefits 
associated with qualifying as a REIT.

20

efus.

At any time, the federal income tax laws governing REITs or the administrative interpretations of those laws may be amended. 
Any of those new laws or interpretations may take effect retroactively and could adversely affect us or you as a debt and/or equity 
security holder. REIT dividends generally are not eligible for the reduced rates currently applicable to certain corporate dividends 
(unless attributable to dividends from taxable REIT subsidiaries and otherwise eligible for such rates). As a result, investment in 
non-REIT corporations may be relatively more attractive than investment in REITs. This could adversely affect the market price of 
our shares.



Wfuture.

We currently expect to pay an aggregate annual dividend of $0.66 per common share with respect to the 2014 taxable year. 
However, the decision to declare and pay dividends on our common shares in the future, as well as the timing, amount and composition 
of any such future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Trustees in light of conditions then existing, including 
our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, debt maturities, the availability of debt and equity capital, applicable REIT 
and legal restrictions and the general overall economic conditions and other factors. The actual dividend payable will be determined 
by our Board of Trustees based upon the circumstances at the time of declaration and the actual dividend payable may vary from 
such expected amount. Any change in our dividend policy could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common 
shares.

efprice.

We have an unallocated universal shelf registration statement, pursuant to which we maintain an ATM program, and we also 
maintain a direct share purchase plan, pursuant to which we may issue additional common shares. In addition, after giving effect to 
the LCIF and LCIF II merger, as of December 31, 2013, an aggregate of approximately 5.8 million of our common shares were 
issuable upon the exercise of employee share options and upon the exchange of OP units. There were also approximately 4.2 million 
common shares underlying our 6.00% Convertible Notes as of December 31, 2013, which is subject to increase upon certain events, 
including if we pay a quarterly common share dividend in excess of $0.10 per common share. Depending upon the number of such 
securities issued, exercised or exchanged at one time, an issuance, exercise or exchange of such securities could be dilutive to or 
otherwise adversely affect the interests of holders of our common shares.

efcontrol.

Limitations imposed to protect our REIT status. In order to protect against the loss of our REIT status, among other purposes, 
our declaration of trust limits any shareholder from owning more than 9.8% in value of our outstanding equity shares, defined as 
common shares or preferred shares, subject to certain exceptions. These ownership limits may have the effect of precluding acquisition 
of control of us. Our Board of Trustees has granted a limited waiver of the ownership limits to BlackRock, Inc.

Severance payments under employment agreements. Substantial termination payments may be required to be paid under the 
provisions of employment agreements with certain of our executives upon a change of control and the subsequent termination of the 
executive. We have entered into employment agreements with four of our executive officers which provide that, upon the occurrence 
of a change in control of us (including a change in ownership of more than 50% of the total combined voting power of our outstanding 
securities, the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, dissolution, the acquisition, except from us, of 20% or more of our voting 
shares or a change in the majority of our Board of Trustees), if those executive officers are terminated without cause, as defined, 
those executive officers may be entitled to severance benefits based on their current annual base salaries and trailing average of 
recent annual cash bonuses as defined in the employment agreements. Accordingly, these payments may discourage a third party 
from acquiring us.

Our ability to issue additional shares. Our declaration of trust authorizes 400,000,000 common shares, 100,000,000 preferred 
shares and 500,000,000 excess shares. Our Board of Trustees is authorized to cause us to issue these shares without shareholder 
approval. Our Board of Trustees may establish the preferences and rights of any such class or series of additional shares, which could 
have the effect of delaying or preventing someone from taking control of us, even if a change in control were in shareholders' best 
interests. At December 31, 2013, in addition to common shares, we had outstanding 1,935,400 Series C Preferred Shares. Our Series 
C Preferred Shares include provisions, such as increases in dividend rates or adjustments to conversion rates, that may deter a change 
of control. The establishment and issuance of shares of our existing series of preferred shares or a future class or series of shares 
could make a change of control of us more difficult.

Maryland Business Combination Act. The Maryland General Corporation Law, as applicable to Maryland REITs, establishes 
special restrictions against “business combinations” between a Maryland REIT and “interested shareholders” or their affiliates unless 
an exemption is applicable. An interested shareholder includes a person who beneficially owns, and an affiliate or associate of the 
trust who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question was the beneficial owner of, 10% or more of the voting 
power of our then-outstanding voting shares, but a person is not an interested shareholder if the Board of Trustees approved in advance 
the transaction by which he otherwise would have become an interested shareholder, which approval may be conditioned by the 
Board of Trustees. Among other things, Maryland law prohibits (for a period of five years) a merger and certain other transactions 
between a Maryland REIT and an interested shareholder, or an affiliate of an interested shareholder. The five-year period runs from 
the most recent date on which the interested shareholder became an interested shareholder. Thereafter, any such business combination 
must be recommended by the Board of Trustees and approved by two super-majority shareholder votes unless, among other conditions, 
the common shareholders receive a minimum price (as defined in the Maryland General Corporation Law) for their shares and the 
consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by the interested shareholder for its shares. The statute 
permits various exemptions from its provisions, including business combinations that are exempted by the Board of Trustees prior 
to the time that the interested shareholder becomes an interested shareholder. The business combination statute could have the effect 
of discouraging offers to acquire us and of increasing the difficulty of consummating any such offers, even if such acquisition would 
be in shareholders' best interests. In connection with the Newkirk Merger, Vornado Realty Trust, which we refer to as Vornado, was 
granted a limited exemption from the definition of “interested shareholder.”

Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act. Maryland law provides that a holder of “control shares” of a Maryland REIT acquired 
in a “control share acquisition” has no voting rights with respect to such shares except to the extent approved by a vote of two-thirds 
of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter under the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act. Shares owned by the acquirer, by 
our officers or by employees who are our trustees are excluded from shares entitled to vote on the matter. “Control Shares” means 
voting shares that, if aggregated with all other shares previously acquired by the acquirer or in respect of which the acquirer is able 
to exercise or direct the exercise of voting power (except solely by virtue of a revocable proxy), would entitle the acquirer to exercise 
voting power in electing trustees within one of the following ranges of voting power: one-tenth or more but less than one-third, one-
third or more but less than a majority or a majority or more of all voting power. Control shares do not include shares the acquiring 
person is then entitled to vote as a result of having previously obtained shareholder approval. A “control share acquisition” means 
the acquisition of issued and outstanding control shares, subject to certain exceptions. If voting rights of control shares acquired in 
a control share acquisition are not approved at a shareholders meeting or if the acquiring person does not deliver an acquiring person 
statement as required under the statute, then, subject to certain conditions and limitations, the issuer may redeem any or all of the 
control shares for fair value, except those for which voting rights have been previously approved. If voting rights of such control 
shares are approved at a shareholders meeting and the acquirer becomes entitled to vote a majority of the shares entitled to vote, all 
other shareholders may exercise appraisal rights. Any control shares acquired in a control share acquisition which are not exempt 
under our by-laws will be subject to the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act. The Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act does 
not apply to shares acquired in a merger, consolidation or statutory share exchange if the Maryland REIT is a party to the transaction, 
or to acquisitions approved or exempted by the declaration of trust or by-laws of the Maryland REIT. Our amended and restated by-
laws contain a provision exempting from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act any and all acquisitions by any person of our 
shares. We cannot assure you that this provision will not be amended or eliminated at any time in the future.

For us to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, among other requirements, not more than 50% of the value of our 
outstanding capital shares may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined for federal income tax 
purposes to include certain entities) during the last half of each taxable year, and these capital shares must be beneficially owned by 
100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year 
(in each case, other than the first such year for which a REIT election is made). Our amended and restated declaration of trust includes 
certain restrictions regarding transfers of our capital shares and ownership limits.

Actual or constructive ownership of our capital shares in violation of the restrictions or in excess of the share ownership limits 
contained in our amended and restated declaration of trust would cause the violative transfer or ownership to be void or cause the 
shares to be transferred to a charitable trust and then sold to a person or entity who can own the shares without violating these limits. 
As a result, if a violative transfer were made, the recipient of the shares would not acquire any economic or voting rights attributable 
to the transferred shares. Additionally, the constructive ownership rules for these limits are complex, and groups of related individuals 
or entities may be deemed a single owner and consequently in violation of the share ownership limits.

22

However, these restrictions and limits may not be adequate in all cases to prevent the transfer of our capital shares in violation 
of the ownership limitations. The ownership limits discussed above may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing someone 
from taking control of us, even though a change of control could involve a premium price for the common shares or otherwise be in 
shareholders' best interests.

fluctuations.

Since January 1, 2011, the closing sale price of our common shares on the NYSE (composite) has ranged from $13.64 to $5.96 
per share. The market price of our common shares may fluctuate in response to company-specific and general market events and 
developments, including those described in this Annual Report. In addition, our leverage may impact investor demand for our common 
shares, which could have a material effect on the market price of our common shares.

StafComments

There are no unresolved written comments that were received from the SEC staff 180 days or more before the end of our 

fiscal year relating to our periodic or current reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Properties



General. As of December 31, 2013, we had equity ownership interests in approximately 220 consolidated real estate properties 
containing approximately 40.7 million square feet of rentable space, which were approximately 97.6% leased based upon net rentable 
square feet. Generally, all properties in which we have an interest are held through at least one property owner subsidiary.

The properties in which we have an interest are generally subject to net or similar leases; however, in certain leases, the property 
owner subsidiaries are responsible for roof, structural and other repairs. In addition, certain of the properties in which we have an 
interest are subject to leases in which the landlord is responsible for a portion of the real estate taxes, utilities and general maintenance. 
Furthermore, the property owner subsidiaries are or will be responsible for all operating expenses of any vacant properties, and the 
property owner subsidiaries may be responsible for a significant amount of operating expenses of multi-tenant properties.

Ground Leases. Certain of the properties in which we have an interest are subject to long-term ground leases where either the 
tenant of the building on the property or a third party owns and leases the underlying land to the property owner subsidiary. Certain 
of these properties are economically owned through the holding of industrial revenue bonds primarily for real estate tax abatement 
purposes and as such, neither ground lease payments nor bond interest payments are made or received, respectively. For certain of 
the properties held under a ground lease, the ground lessee has a purchase option. At the end of these long-term ground leases, unless 
extended or the purchase option exercised, the land together with all improvements thereon reverts to the landowner. 

Leverage. As of December 31, 2013, we had outstanding mortgages and notes payable and corporate level debt of approximately 

$2.1 billion with a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 4.7% and a weighted-average maturity of 7.0 years.

Property Charts. The following tables list our properties by type, their locations, the primary tenant/guarantor, the net rentable 

square feet, the expiration of the primary lease term and percent leased, as applicable, as of December 31, 2013.

During 2009, we issued an aggregate 13,304,198 common shares in lieu of cash payments of common share dividends during 
the quarters ended June 30, September 30 and December 31, 2009 in accordance with Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 
2008-68.

While we intend to continue paying regular quarterly dividends to holders of our common shares, the authorization of future 
dividend declarations will be at the discretion of our Board of Trustees and will depend on our actual cash flow, our financial condition, 
capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code and such other factors as our Board 
of Trustees deems relevant. The actual cash flow available to pay dividends will be affected by a number of factors, including, among 
others, the risks discussed under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A and “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition 
and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 of this Annual Report.

We do not believe that the financial covenants contained in our debt instruments will have any adverse impact on our ability to 
pay dividends in the normal course of business to our common and preferred shareholders or to distribute amounts necessary to 
maintain our qualification as a REIT.

Direct Share Purchase Plan. We maintain a direct share purchase plan, which has two components, (i) a dividend reinvestment 
component and (ii) a direct share purchase component. Under the dividend reinvestment component, common shareholders and 
holders of OP units may elect to automatically reinvest their dividends and distributions to purchase our common shares free of 
commissions and other charges. We currently offer a 5.0% discount on the common shares reinvested under the dividend reinvestment 
component. Under the direct share purchase component, our current investors and new investors can make optional cash purchases 
of our common shares. The administrator of the plan, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., purchases common shares for the accounts 
of the participants under the plan, at our discretion, either directly from us, on the open market or through a combination of those 
two options. In 2013, 2012 and 2011, we issued approximately 1.5 million, 1.0 million and 1.1 million common shares, respectively, 
under the plan, raising net proceeds of $16.5 million, $8.5 million and $8.4 million, respectively.

38

ATM Program. In January 2013, we implemented an ATM program, under which we may, from time to time, sell up to $100.0 
million in common shares over the term of the program.  As of December 31, 2013, we issued 3,409,927 common shares under this 
ATM program at a weighted-average issue price of $10.82 per common share, generating gross proceeds of approximately $36.9 
million.   We  used  the  proceeds  from  the ATM  program  for  general  working  capital,  which  included  investments  and  to  repay 
indebtedness.  As of December 31, 2013, we had approximately $63.1 million in common shares available for issuance under the 
ATM program.  

Equity Compensation Plan Information. The following table sets forth certain information, as of December 31, 2013, with respect

and Operations

In this discussion, we have included statements that may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe 
harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts but 
instead represent only our beliefs regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside our 
control. These statements may relate to our future plans and objectives, among other things. By identifying these statements for you 
in this manner, we are alerting you to the possibility that our actual results may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results 
indicated in these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our results to differ, possibly materially, from those 
indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, those discussed above in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of 
this Annual Report and “Cautionary Statements Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” in Part I, of this Annual Report.



















General. We are a Maryland REIT that owns a diversified portfolio of equity and debt investments in single-tenant properties 
and  land. A  majority of  these  properties and  all  land interests  are subject  to  net  or  similar  leases, where  the  tenant bears  all  or 
substantially all of the costs, including cost increases, for real estate taxes, utilities, insurance and ordinary repairs.

As of December 31, 2013, we had equity ownership interests in approximately 220 consolidated real estate properties, located 

in 41 states and encompassing approximately 40.7 million square feet, approximately 97.6% of which was leased. 

Our revenues and cash flows are generated predominantly from property rent receipts. As a result, growth in revenues and cash 
flows is directly correlated to our ability to (1) acquire income producing real estate assets and (2) re-lease properties that are vacant, 
or may become vacant, at favorable rental rates.

In recent years, we have seen an increase in acquisition opportunities and strengthening in the availability of capital. However, 
our business continues to be subject to the uncertainty and volatility in the capital markets, which may (1) lead to a need to preserve 
capital, generate additional liquidity and improve our overall financial flexibility, (2) limit our ability to find attractive financing, 
(3) create challenges in acquiring suitable property investments and (4) impact tenant demand with respect to future space needs. 
However, it is difficult for us to predict when, or if, these conditions may arise. 

In an effort to diversify our risk, we invest across the United States in properties leased to tenants in various industries, including 
finance/insurance,  technology,  service,  energy  and  transportation/logistics.  However,  industry  declines,  to  the  extent  we  have 
concentration, and general economic declines could negatively impact our results of operations and cash flows.

Portfolio Management. During the year ended December 31, 2013, we generated approximately 30.1% of our rental revenue 
from leases ten years or longer, compared to approximately 23.1% for the year ended December 31, 2012.  Our objective is to generate 
at least half of our rental revenue from leases ten years or longer, which we expect to achieve primarily through capital recycling of 
assets with shorter-term leases and acquiring new investments with leases longer than ten years.  

At December 31, 2013, our rental revenue from single-tenant leases scheduled to expire through 2018 has been reduced to 
approximately 36.9% compared to approximately 44.7% at December 31, 2012.  We believe we no longer have concentrated risk of 
lease rollover in any one year. In addition, we extended our weighted-average lease term on a cash basis to approximately 11.2 years 
at December 31, 2013 compared to approximately 6.9 years at December 31, 2012.  This was primarily due to our acquisition volume 
in 2013, including the addition of long-term land leases to our portfolio. However, certain of the long-term leases have tenant purchase 
options.

41

In recent years, demand for space in the suburban office market has not been as strong as demand for space in the industrial 
market. We believe this is due to a continuing trend of downsizing of corporate office employment. In addition, industrial assets 
generally require less capital to maintain and re-lease than office assets.  As of December 31, 2013, the ratio of rental revenue from 
office assets to the rental revenue from industrial assets, each with lease terms shorter than ten years, was approximately 3:1.  Our 
objective is to manage this ratio down to approximately 2:1 over the next several years, which we expect to accomplish partly through 
sales of office assets and growing our portfolio.  While we continue to see challenges in the suburban office market, we believe 
vacant office values have increased over the last several years.  This has allowed us to dispose of certain vacant properties at higher 
than expected values. 

Business Strategy. Our current business strategy is focused on enhancing our cash flow growth and stability, growing our portfolio 
with attractive long-term leased investments and maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet to allow us to act on opportunities 
as they arise. See “Business” in Part I, Item 1 of this Annual Report for a detailed description of our current business strategy.

We believe a positive impact continues to result from our business strategy. In 2013, we increased our net assets by approximately 
$206.3 million as compared to 2012. In 2013, we completed real estate acquisitions/build-to-suit transactions, including joint venture 
investments, for an aggregate capitalized cost of approximately $590.4 million and reduced our weighted-average interest rate on 
outstanding consolidated indebtedness by approximately 74 basis points primarily by refinancing higher interest rate debt. Since 
2008, we reduced our overall consolidated indebtedness by $338.6 million primarily (1) by repurchasing our debt and (2) through 
the sale, transfer or other disposition of properties to third parties and lenders. Our secured debt decreased to approximately $1.2 
billion at December 31, 2013 compared to $1.7 billion at December 31, 2012, which was 23.9% and 36.5% of total gross assets, 
respectively.  Our objective is to lower our secured debt to approximately 20% or less of total gross assets.  We expect to achieve 
this objective by satisfying secured debt as it matures and acquiring new investments without secured debt.  We believe this will also 
allow us to further lower our financing costs and improve our cash flow, financial flexibility and credit metrics.   

We expect our business strategy will enable us to continue to improve our liquidity and strengthen our overall balance sheet. 
We believe liquidity and a strong balance sheet will allow us to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities as they arise, 
which will create meaningful shareholder value. 

Investment Trends. Making investments in income producing single-tenant net-leased real estate assets is one of our primary 
focuses. The challenge we face is finding investments that will provide an attractive return without compromising our real estate 
underwriting criteria. We believe we have access to acquisition opportunities due to our relationships with developers, brokers, 
corporate users and sellers. When we acquire real estate assets, we look for commercial real estate assets or land interests subject to 
a long-term net-lease which have one or more of the following characteristics (1) a credit-worthy tenant, (2) adaptability to a variety 
of users, including multi-tenant use, (3) an attractive geographic location, and (4) the potential for capital appreciation.

Our acquisition volume consists primarily of sale-leaseback transactions and build-to-suit transactions whereby we (1) provide 
capital to developers who are engaged in build-to-suit transactions and/or commit to purchase the property from developers upon 
completion or (2) acquire a property subject to a single-tenant net-lease and engage a developer to complete construction of a build-
to-suit property as required by the lease. We believe these arrangements offer developers and/or tenants access to capital while 
simultaneously providing us with attractive risk-adjusted projected yields. 

We generally mitigate our cost exposure by requiring purchase agreements, development agreements and/or loan agreements 
to specify a maximum price and/or loan commitment amount prior to our investment. Cost overruns are generally the responsibility 
of the developer, or in some cases the prospective tenant. To further mitigate risk, we believe we perform stringent underwriting 
procedures such as, among other items, (1) requiring payment and performance bonds and/or completion guarantees from developers 
and/or contractors; (2) engaging third-party construction consultants and/or engineers to monitor construction progress and quality; 
(3) only hiring developers with a proven history of performance; (4) requiring developers to provide financial statements and in some 
cases personal guarantees from principals; (5) obtaining and reviewing detailed plans and construction budgets; (6) requiring a long-
term tenant lease to be executed prior to funding; and (7) securing liens on the property to the extent of construction funding.

(1)  Loan carrying value includes accrued interest and is net of origination costs, loan losses and fee eliminations, if any.
(2)   We are committed to lend up to $32.6 million.
(3)  We are committed to lend up to $10.7 million.
(4)  We are committed to lend up to $85.0 million. During construction, advances accrue interest at 6.5% per annum. Estimated construction 

completion is March 2014.

In 2013, we foreclosed on our loan receivable that was secured by an office property in Schaumburg, Illinois. The loan had an 
outstanding balance of $21.6 million (not including default interest and other penalties), which we believe was less than the estimated 
fair value of the property.

Also in 2013, the tenant of the property in Westmont, Illinois, which we sold in 2007 and issued a purchase mortgage to the 
buyer, exercised its option to terminate its lease effective November 2013 and as a result we recognized a loan loss of $13.9 million 
in 2013 on the outstanding loan receivable. 

Despite the current economic uncertainty, we have seen an increase in our acquisition pipeline, mostly consisting of build-to-
suit transactions. We have several commitments and letters of intent for future acquisitions as of the first quarter of 2014. We currently 
expect investment activity to be approximately $300.0 - $350.0 million for 2014, which includes approximately $200.0 - $225.0 
million of build-to-suit transactions with the remaining being immediately deliverable investments. However, we are seeing increased 
competition for build-to-suit transactions and we can provide no assurances that any of these transactions will be consummated or, 
if consummated, will be successful.

Leasing Trends. Re-leasing properties that are currently vacant or as leases expire at favorable effective rates is one of our 
primary asset management focuses. The primary risks associated with re-tenanting properties are (1) the period of time required to 
find  a  new  tenant,  (2) whether  rental  rates  will  be  lower  than  previously  received,  (3) the  significance  of  leasing  costs  such  as 
commissions and tenant improvement allowances and (4) the payment of capital expenditures and operating costs such as real estate 
taxes, insurance and maintenance with no offsetting revenue.

Our property owner subsidiaries seek to mitigate these risks by (1) staying in close contact with our tenants during the lease 
term in order to assess the tenant's current and future occupancy needs, (2) maintaining relationships with local brokers to determine 
the depth of the rental market and (3) retaining local expertise to assist in the re-tenanting of a property. However, no assurance can 
be given that once a property becomes vacant it will subsequently be re-let. Generally, a tenant in a single-tenant office property 
commences lease extension discussions well in advance of lease expiration. If the lease has a year or less remaining until expiration, 
there is a high likelihood that the tenant will not extend the lease for the entire property.

If a property cannot be re-let to a single user and the property can be adapted to multi-tenant use, we determine whether the 
costs of adapting the property to multi-tenant use outweigh the benefit of funding operating costs while searching for a single-tenant.

Certain of the long-term leases on properties in which we have an ownership interest contain provisions that may mitigate the 
adverse impact of inflation on our operating results. Such provisions include clauses entitling us to receive (1) scheduled fixed base 
rent increases and (2) base rent increases based upon the consumer price index. In addition, a majority of the leases on the single-
tenant properties in which we have an ownership interest require tenants to pay operating expenses, including maintenance, real 
estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses. In addition, the 
leases on single-tenant properties in which we have an ownership interest are generally structured in a way that minimizes our 
responsibility for capital improvements. However, certain of our leases provide for some level of landlord responsibility for capital 
repairs and replacements, the cost of which is generally factored into the rental rate.

Since  2008,  tenants  have  been  more  aggressive  in  lease  and  lease  renewal  negotiations  with  respect  to  rental  rates,  tenant 
concessions and landlord responsibilities. As a result, the obligations of our property owner subsidiaries on new leases and newly 
renewed or extended leases have generally increased to include, among other items, some form of responsibility for capital repairs 
and replacements. 

During 2013, we entered into 59 new leases and lease extensions encompassing approximately 5.7 million square feet. The 
average GAAP base rent on these extended leases was approximately $6.88 per square foot compared to the average GAAP base 
rent  on  these  leases  before  extension  of  $6.95  per  square  foot.  The  weighted-average  cost  of  tenant  improvements  and  lease 
commissions during 2013 was approximately $17.27 per square foot for new leases and $3.16 per square foot for extended leases. 
We expect renewal rents to be lower than expiring rents and aggregate tenant improvement allowances and leasing costs to also 
decrease from their current levels in the future.

We continue to monitor the credit of tenants of properties in which we have an interest by (1) subscribing to S&P and Moody's, 
so that we can monitor changes in the ratings of our rated tenants, (2) reviewing financial statements that are publicly available or 
that are required to be delivered to us under the applicable lease, (3) monitoring news reports regarding our tenants and their respective 
businesses and (4) monitoring the timeliness of rent collections. Under current bankruptcy law, a tenant can generally assume or 
reject a lease within a certain number of days of filing its bankruptcy petition. If a tenant rejects the lease, a landlord's damages, 
subject to availability of funds from the bankruptcy estate, are generally limited to the greater of (1) one year's rent and (2) the rent 
for 15%, of the remaining term of the lease not to exceed three years rent. 

During 2013, we conveyed in foreclosure or via a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure four properties in which we had an interest as we 
deemed the non-recourse mortgages encumbering the properties were in excess of the value of the property collateral. Two vacant 
properties in which we had an interest were disposed of in foreclosure in 2012. Our property owner subsidiaries may convey properties 
to lenders or the property owner subsidiary may declare bankruptcy in the future if a property owner subsidiary is unable to refinance, 
re-let or sell its vacated property or if a tenant renews at a lower rent or a new tenant pays a lower rent that does not justify a value 
of the property in excess of the mortgage balance.

Impairment charges. During 2013, 2012 and 2011, we incurred impairment charges on our assets, excluding loan receivables, 
of $34.6 million, $10.0 million and $117.4 million, respectively, due primarily to the assets being sold below their carrying value 
and a deterioration in economic conditions since the acquisition of such assets. These real estate assets were primarily non-core assets 
including retail properties, under performing and multi-tenant properties. In addition, in 2013, we recognized a loan loss of $13.9 
million relating to a loan receivable secured by a property in Westmont, Illinois.

45

Given the continued uncertainty in general economic conditions, we cannot estimate if we will incur, or the amount of, future 

impairment charges on our assets. See Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors”, of this Annual Report.

Critical Accounting Policies. Our accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, 
which require our management to make estimates that affect the amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities reported and 
related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. A summary of our significant accounting policies which are important to the 
portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations is set forth in note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements beginning 
on page 70 of this Annual Report and incorporated by reference herein. 

The following is a summary of our critical accounting policies, which require some of management's most difficult, subjective 

and complex judgments. 

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. 
The financial statements reflect our accounts and the accounts of our consolidated subsidiaries. We consolidate our wholly-owned 
subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which we control through (1) voting rights or similar rights or (2) by means other than 
voting rights if we are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, which we refer to as a VIE. Entities which we do not 
control and entities which are VIEs in which we are not the primary beneficiary are generally accounted for by the equity method. 
Significant judgments and assumptions are made by us to determine whether an entity is a VIE such as those regarding an entity's 
equity at risk, the entity's equity holders' obligations to absorb anticipated losses and other factors. In addition, the determination of 
the primary beneficiary of a VIE requires judgment to determine the party that has (1) power over the significant activities of the 
VIE and (2) an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE.

Judgments and Estimates. Our management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets 
and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses to prepare our 
consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions are based on our management's best 
estimates and judgment. Our management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience 
and other factors, including the current economic environment. The current economic environment has increased the degree of 
uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions. Our management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances 
dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price 
to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and entities that should be consolidated, 
the determination of impairment of long-lived assets, loans receivable and equity method investments, valuation and impairment of 
assets held by equity method investees, valuation of derivative financial instruments and the useful lives of long-lived assets. 

Purchase Accounting and Acquisition of Real Estate. The fair value of the real estate acquired, which includes the impact of fair 
value adjustments for assumed mortgage debt related to property acquisitions, is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting 
of land, building and improvements and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-
market leases, other value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values.

The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land, building and improvements and fixtures and 
equipment) is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant. The “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building 
and  improvements  based  on  our  management's  determination  of  relative  fair  values  of  these  assets.  Factors  considered  by  our 
management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering 
current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, our management includes real estate taxes, 
insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current 
market demand. Our management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions.

In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-
market lease values are recorded based on the difference between the current in-place lease rent and management's estimate of current 
market rents. Below-market lease intangibles are recorded as part of deferred revenue and amortized into rental revenue over the 
non-cancelable periods and bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. Above-market leases are recorded as part of intangible 
assets and amortized as a direct charge against rental revenue over the non-cancelable portion of the respective leases.

The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases and tenant relationship values, is measured 
by the excess of (1) the purchase price paid for a property over (2) the estimated fair value of the property as if vacant, determined 
as  set  forth  above.  This  aggregate  value  is  allocated  between  in-place  lease  values  and  tenant  relationship  values  based  on 
management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease. The value of in-place leases is amortized to expense 
over the remaining non-cancelable periods and any bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationships 
is amortized to expense over the applicable lease term plus expected renewal periods. 

46

Revenue Recognition. We recognize lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic 
and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the leased property. Renewal 
options in leases with rental terms that are lower than those in the primary term are excluded from the calculation of straight line 
rent if the renewals are not reasonably assured. In those instances in which we fund tenant improvements and the improvements are 
deemed to be owned by us, revenue recognition will commence when the improvements are substantially completed and possession 
or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. When we determine that the tenant allowances are lease incentives, we commence 
revenue recognition when possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant for tenant work to begin. The lease incentive 
is recorded as a deferred expense and amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. 
Determining if a tenant allowance is a lease incentive requires significant judgment. We recognize lease termination payments as a 
component of rental revenue in the period received, provided that there are no further obligations under the lease; otherwise the lease 
termination payment is amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining obligation period. All above-market lease assets, below-
market lease liabilities and deferred rent assets or liabilities for terminated leases are charged against or credited to rental revenue 
in the period the lease is terminated. All other capitalized lease costs and lease intangibles are accelerated via amortization expense 
to the date of termination.

Gains on sales of real estate are recognized based on the specific timing of the sale as measured against various criteria related 
to the terms of the transactions and any continuing involvement associated with the properties. If the sales criteria are not met, the 
gain is deferred and the finance, installment or cost recovery method, as appropriate, is applied until the sales criteria are met. To 
the extent we sell a property and retain a partial ownership interest in the property, we recognize gain to the extent of the third-party 
ownership interest.

Accounts Receivable. We continuously monitor collections from our tenants and would make a provision for estimated losses 

based upon historical experience and any specific tenant collection issues that we have identified.

Impairment of Real Estate. We evaluate the carrying value of all tangible and intangible real estate assets for possible impairment 
when an event or change in circumstance has occurred that indicates its carrying value may not be recoverable. The evaluation 
includes estimating and reviewing anticipated future undiscounted cash flows to be derived from the asset. If such cash flows are 
less than the asset's carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent by which the asset's carrying value exceeds the 
estimated fair value. Estimating future cash flows is highly subjective and such estimates could differ materially from actual results.

Impairment of Equity Method Investments. We assess whether there are indicators that the value of our equity method investments 
may be impaired. An investment's value is impaired if we determine that a decline in the value of the investment below its carrying 
value  is  other-than-temporary.  The  assessment  of  impairment  is  highly  subjective  and  involves  the  application  of  significant 
assumptions and judgments about our intent and ability to recover our investment given the nature and operations of the underlying 
investment, including the level of our involvement therein, among other factors. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is 
measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated value of the investment. 

Loans Receivable. We evaluate the collectability of both interest and principal of each of our loans, if circumstances warrant, 
to determine whether the loan is impaired. A loan is considered to be impaired, when based on current information and events, it is 
probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. Significant judgments are 
required in determining whether impairment has occurred. When a loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of the loss accrual 
is calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the 
loan's effective interest rate, the loan's observable current market price or the fair value of the underlying collateral. Interest on 
impaired loans is recognized on a cash basis.

Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. We evaluate loans receivable where we participate in residual profits 
through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether we have the same risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture 
partner. Where we conclude that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, we reflect such 
loan receivable as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In these cases, no interest 
income is recorded on the loan receivable and we record capitalized interest during the construction period. In arrangements where 
we engage a developer to construct a property or provide funds to a tenant to develop a property, we will capitalize the funds provided 
to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period.

The accounting for these critical accounting policies and implementation of accounting guidance issued in the future involves 
the making of estimates based on current facts, circumstances and assumptions which could change in a manner that would materially 
affect management's future estimates with respect to such matters. Accordingly, future reported financial conditions and results could 
differ materially from financial conditions and results reported based on management's current estimates.

General. Since becoming a public company, our principal sources of liquidity have been (1) undistributed cash flows generated 
from our investments, (2) the public and private equity and debt markets, including issuances of OP units, (3) property specific debt, 
(4) corporate level borrowings, (5) commitments from co-investment partners and (6) proceeds from the sales of our investments. 

Our ability to incur additional debt to fund acquisitions is dependent upon our existing leverage, the value of the assets we are 
attempting to leverage and general economic and credit market conditions, which may be outside of management's control or influence.

Cash Flows. We believe that cash flows from operations will continue to provide adequate capital to fund our operating and 
administrative expenses, regular debt service obligations and all dividend payments in accordance with REIT requirements in both 
the short-term and long-term. In addition, we anticipate that cash on hand, corporate level borrowings, capital recycling proceeds, 
issuances of equity and debt, mortgage proceeds and our other principal sources of liquidity, will be available to provide the necessary 
capital required to fund our operations and allow us to grow. 

Cash flows from operations as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows totaled $206.3 million for 2013, $163.8 
million for 2012 and $180.1 million for 2011. Cash flows from operations increased in 2013 primarily due to an increase in acquisitions, 
offset by yield maintenance payments made on debt satisfactions. Cash flow from operations in 2011 was primarily impacted by the 
receipt of a lease termination payment on our Lenexa, Kansas property. The underlying drivers that impact working capital and 
therefore cash flows from operations are the timing of (1) the collection of rents and tenant reimbursements, loan interest payments 
from borrowers, and advisory fees, and (2) the payment of interest on mortgage debt and operating and general and administrative 
costs. We believe the net-lease structure of the leases encumbering a majority of the properties in which we have an interest mitigates 
the risks of the timing of cash flows from operations since the payment and timing of operating costs related to the properties are 
generally borne directly by the tenant. Collection and timing of tenant rents is closely monitored by management as part of our cash 
management program.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $597.6 million in 2013, $134.1 million in 2012 and $24.8 million in 2011. Cash 
provided by investing activities related primarily to proceeds from the sale of properties, collection of loans receivable, distributions 
from non-consolidated entities in excess of accumulated earnings, proceeds from the sale of interests in non-consolidated entities 
and changes in escrow deposits and restricted cash. Cash used in investing activities related primarily to investments in real estate 
properties, co-investment programs and loans receivable and an increase in deferred leasing costs, deposits and restricted cash. 
Therefore, the fluctuation in investing activities relates primarily to the timing of investments and dispositions.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities totaled $434.5 million in 2013, $(59.4) million in 2012 and $(144.3) million 
in 2011. Cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to net proceeds from the issuance of common shares, 
contributions from noncontrolling interests and non-recourse mortgages and corporate borrowings. Cash used in financing activities 
related primarily to dividend and distribution payments, repurchases of preferred shares, forward equity commitment payments, net, 
purchase of a noncontrolling interest, an increase in deferred financing costs and debt payments and repurchases.

Public and Private Equity and Debt Markets. We access the public and private equity and debt markets when we (1) believe 
conditions  are  favorable  and  (2)  have  a  compelling  use  of  proceeds.  During  2013,  2012  and  2011,  we  raised  net  proceeds  of 
approximately $434.9 million, $162.7 million and $99.7 million, respectively, through the issuance of common shares, including 
option exercises. During 2013, we raised net proceeds of approximately $247.6 million through the issuance of investment-grade 
rated 4.25% Senior Notes. We primarily used these proceeds to fund investments and retire indebtedness. 

During 2007, we issued an aggregate $450.0 million of 5.45% Exchangeable Guaranteed Notes due in 2027. From 2008 through 
2012, we repurchased and retired all notes for $358.1 million in cash and 1.6 million common shares having a value at issuance of 
$23.5 million (or $14.50 per share). 

48

During 2010, we issued $115.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Convertible Notes. The notes pay interest semi-
annually in arrears and mature in January 2030. The holders of the notes may require us to repurchase their notes in January 2017, 
January 2020 and January 2025 for cash equal to 100% of the principal of the notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid 
interest. We may not redeem any notes prior to January 2017, except to preserve our REIT status. Thereafter, we may redeem the 
notes for cash equal to 100% of the principal of the notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. As of the date of 
filing this Annual Report, the notes have a conversion rate of 147.8206 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of the notes, 
representing a conversion price of approximately $6.76 per common share. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment under certain 
circumstances, including increases in our dividend rate above a certain threshold and the issuance of stock dividends. The notes are 
convertible by the holders under certain circumstances for cash, common shares or a combination of cash and common shares at our 
election. During 2013 and 2012, holders of the notes converted an aggregate of $54.9 million and $31.1 million, respectively, of 
notes for 7.9 million and 4.5 million common shares, respectively, and an aggregate cash payment by us of $3.3 million and $2.4 
million, respectively, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, we repurchased and retired all outstanding 8.05% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred 
Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, which we refer to as Series B Preferred Shares, (approximately 3.2 million) and Series D Preferred 
Shares (approximately 6.2 million) and approximately 0.2 million Series C Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $240.5 
million, which was at a $1.5 million discount to the liquidation preferences of the preferred shares. 

During 2008, we entered into a forward equity commitment to purchase 3.5 million of our common shares at a price of $5.60 
per share and we agreed to make floating payments during the term of the forward purchase at LIBOR plus 250 basis points per 
annum and we retained all cash dividend payments. We prepaid $15.6 million of the $19.6 million purchase price during 2008 and 
2009. We settled the commitment in October 2011 for a cash payment of approximately $4.0 million and retired approximately 4.0 
million common shares.

We may access these markets and other markets in the future to implement our business strategy and to fund future growth. 
However, the continued general economic uncertainty and the volatility in these markets makes accessing these markets challenging.

UPREIT Structure. Our UPREIT structure permits us to effect acquisitions by issuing OP units to a property owner as a form 
of consideration in exchange for the property. Substantially all outstanding OP units are redeemable by the holder at certain times 
on a one OP unit for approximately 1.13 common shares basis or, at our election, with respect to certain OP units, cash. Substantially 
all outstanding OP units require us to pay quarterly distributions to the holders of such OP units equal to the dividends paid to our 
common shareholders on an as redeemed basis and the remaining OP units have stated distributions in accordance with their applicable 
partnership agreement. To the extent that our dividend per share is less than a stated distribution per unit per the applicable partnership 
agreement, the stated distributions per unit are reduced by the percentage reduction in our dividend. We are party to a funding 
agreement with our operating partnership under which we may be required to fund distributions made on account of OP units. No 
OP units have a liquidation preference. The number of common shares that will be outstanding in the future should be expected to 
increase, and income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests should be expected to decrease (increase), as such OP units are 
redeemed for our common shares.

Prior to the effective date of the LCIF and LCIF II merger, there were 3.6 million OP units outstanding which were convertible 
into 4.1 million common shares assuming we satisfied redemptions entirely with common shares. Approximately 0.2 million former 
LCIF II OP units elected or were deemed to elect the cash consideration in the LCIF and LCIF II merger by the February 1, 2014 
deadline and were converted into the right to receive such cash consideration.

As a result of the general deterioration in real estate values which commenced in 2008, few sellers of real estate have been 

seeking OP units as a form of consideration.

Property Specific Debt. As of December 31, 2013, our property owner subsidiaries have related balloon payments of $93.0 
million and $275.3 million maturing in 2014 and 2015, respectively. With respect to mortgages encumbering properties where the 
expected lease rental revenues are sufficient to provide an estimated property value in excess of the mortgage balance, we believe 
our property owner subsidiaries have sufficient sources of liquidity to meet these obligations through future cash flows from operations, 
the credit markets and, if determined appropriate by us, a capital contribution from us from either cash on hand ($77.3 million at 
December 31, 2013) or borrowing capacity on our primary credit facility ($443.4 million as of December 31, 2013).

In the event that the estimated property value is less than the mortgage balance, the mortgages encumbering the properties in 
which we have an interest are generally non-recourse to us and the property owner subsidiaries, such that a property owner subsidiary 
may, if appropriate, satisfy a mortgage obligation by transferring title of the property to the lender or permitting a lender to foreclose. 
There are significant risks associated with conveying properties to lenders through foreclosure which are described in "Risk Factors" 
in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report.

49

 
We expect to continue to use property specific, non-recourse mortgages in certain situations as we believe that by properly 
matching a debt obligation, including the balloon maturity risk, with the terms of a lease, our cash-on-cash returns increase and the 
exposure to residual valuation risk is reduced. However, the current economic environment has impacted our ability to obtain property 
specific debt on favorable terms in many cases. In 2008, property specific mortgage lending nearly ceased. Since then, the number 
of lenders and available loan proceeds have diminished significantly. In addition, the required loan to value ratios have decreased 
and the covenants, including required reserve amounts, have increased. Accordingly, we expect to primarily use corporate level 
borrowings to finance our acquisitions and debt maturities.

In 2013 and 2012, we obtained, through consolidated property owner subsidiaries, $253.5 million and $121.0 million, respectively, 

in non-recourse mortgage loans with interest rates ranging from 3.7% to 4.7% and maturity dates ranging from 2017 to 2027.

Corporate Borrowings. In June 2013, we issued $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Senior Notes due 2023 at 
an issuance price of 99.026% of the principal amount. The notes are unsecured, pay interest semi-annually in arrears and mature in 
June 2023. We may redeem the notes at our option at any time prior to maturity in whole or in part by paying the principal amount 
of the notes being redeemed plus a premium. We recognized an aggregate initial discount of $2.4 million upon issuance of the notes 
which will be recognized as additional interest expense over the term of the notes. The notes are rated Baa2 and BBB- by Moody’s 
and S&P, respectively.

On February 12, 2013, we refinanced our $300.0 million secured revolving credit facility with a $300.0 million unsecured 
revolving credit facility with KeyBank, as agent. The unsecured revolving credit facility matures in February 2017 but can be extended 
until February 2018 at our option. The unsecured revolving credit facility bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.50% to 2.05% based on our 
leverage ratio, as defined therein.  Since we have obtained an investment-grade unsecured debt rating from both Moody’s and S&P, 
the interest rate under the unsecured revolving credit facility ranges from LIBOR plus 0.95% to 1.725% (1.15% as of December 31, 
2013) depending on our unsecured investment-grade debt rating. During 2013, we increased availability under the unsecured revolving 
credit facility from $300.0 million to $400.0 million. At December 31, 2013, the unsecured revolving credit facility had $48.0 million 
outstanding, outstanding letters of credit of $7.6 million and availability of $344.4 million, subject to covenant compliance.

In connection with the refinancing discussed above, we also procured a five-year $250.0 million unsecured term loan facility 
from KeyBank, as agent. The unsecured term loan matures in February 2018, required regular payments of interest only at interest 
rates ranging from LIBOR plus 1.45% to 2.00% dependent on our leverage ratio, as defined therein and may be prepaid without 
penalty.  Since we have obtained an investment-grade unsecured debt rating from both Moody’s and S&P, the interest rate under the 
unsecured  term  loan  ranges  from  LIBOR  plus  1.10%  to  2.10%  (1.35%  as  of  December 31,  2013)  depending  on  our  unsecured 
investment-grade debt rating.  As of December 31, 2013, we have entered into aggregate interest rate swap agreements to fix the 
LIBOR component at a weighted-average rate of 1.05% through February 2018 on the $151.0 million outstanding. At December 31, 
2013, the unsecured term loan had availability of $99.0 million, subject to covenant compliance.

During 2012, we procured a $255.0 million secured term loan from Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as agent.  The term 
loan was secured by ownership interest pledges by certain subsidiaries that collectively owned a borrowing base of properties.  The 
term loan matures in January 2019 and required regular payments of interest only at interest rates that ranged from LIBOR plus 
2.00% to 2.85% dependent on our leverage ratio, as defined therein.  Since we have obtained an investment-grade unsecured debt 
rating from both Moody’s and S&P, the interest rate under the term loan ranges from 1.50% to 2.25% (1.75% as of December 31, 
2013) depending on our unsecured investment-grade debt rating. We may prepay outstanding borrowings under the term loan at a 
premium through January 12, 2016 and at par thereafter. We entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the LIBOR component 
at a weighted-average rate of 1.42% on the $255.0 million of term loan LIBOR-based debt through January 2019. In February 2013, 
we amended the term loan to release the collateral as security.

As of December 31, 2013, we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the revolving credit facility, term 

loan agreements and indenture governing our 4.25% Senior Notes.

In March 2008, we obtained $25.0 million and $45.0 million original principal amount secured term loans from KeyBank. The 
loans were fully satisfied in January 2012 with proceeds from the secured term loan and our credit facility. Also in January 2012, 
we fully satisfied the remaining $62.2 million original principal amount outstanding of our 5.45% Exchangeable Guaranteed Notes 
due in 2027 obtained in 2007.

During 2007, we issued $200.0 million in Trust Preferred Securities, which bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.804% through April 
2017 and thereafter at a variable rate of three month LIBOR plus 170 basis points through maturity. These securities are (1) classified 
as debt, (2) due in 2037 and (3) currently redeemable by us. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were $129.1 million of these 
securities outstanding.

While property specific mortgages have become harder to obtain, corporate level borrowings have generally been available and 

we expect this to continue to be the case in the near future. 

Co-investment Programs and Joint Ventures. We believe that entering into co-investment programs and joint ventures with 
institutional investors and other real estate companies is a good way to access private capital while mitigating our risk in certain 
assets and increasing our return on equity to the extent we earn management or other fees. However, investments in co-investment 
programs and joint ventures limit our ability to make investment decisions unilaterally relating to the assets and limit our ability to 
deploy capital. If we continue to grow, we expect to enter into co-investment programs and joint ventures primarily with respect to 
assets  that we ordinarily would not have invested in such, as non-core assets. We believe this mitigates our exposure to the risks 
inherent in non-core assets. In 2013, we entered into two joint ventures which invested in a fee interest and the related office building 
improvements of a property in Baltimore, Maryland and a portfolio of six veterinary office properties, respectively.

Capital Recycling. Part of our strategy to effectively manage our balance sheet involves pursuing and executing well on property 
dispositions and recycling of capital. During 2013, we disposed of our interests in properties for a gross price of $117.8 million. 
These proceeds were used to retire indebtedness encumbering properties in which we have an interest and make investments. In 
addition, in 2013 we disposed of our interest in four properties via foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in full satisfaction of 
an aggregate of $49.5 million of related non-recourse mortgages. We currently expect disposition activity to equal our estimated 
acquisition activity for 2014, with a focus on multi-tenant and some single-tenant office sales.

Liquidity  Needs.  Our  principal  liquidity  needs  are  the  contractual  obligations  set  forth  under  the  heading  “Contractual 

Obligations,” below, and the payment of dividends to our shareholders and distributions to the holders of OP units. 

As  of  December 31,  2013,  we  had  approximately  $2.1  billion  of  indebtedness,  consisting  of  mortgages  and  notes  payable 
outstanding, credit facility borrowings, term loans, 4.25% Senior Notes, 6.00% Convertible Notes and Trust Preferred Securities, 
with a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 4.7%. The ability of a property owner subsidiary to make debt service payments 
depends upon the rental revenues of its property and its ability to refinance the mortgage related thereto, sell the related property, or 
access capital from us or other sources. A property owner subsidiary's ability to accomplish such goals will be affected by numerous 
economic factors affecting the real estate industry, including the risks described under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual 
Report.

If we are unable to satisfy our contractual obligations and other operating costs with our cash flow from operations, we intend 
to use borrowings and proceeds from issuances of equity or debt securities. If a property owner subsidiary is unable to satisfy its 
contractual  obligations  and  other  operating  costs,  it  may  default  on  its  obligations  and  lose  its  assets  in  foreclosure  or  through 
bankruptcy proceedings. 

We  elected  to  be  taxed  as  a  REIT  under  Sections 856  through  860  of  the  Code,  commencing  with  our  taxable  year  ended 
December 31, 1993. If we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal corporate income taxes on our 
net taxable income that is currently distributed to shareholders. 

In connection with our intention to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we expect to continue paying 
regular dividends to our shareholders. These dividends are expected to be paid from operating cash flows and/or from other sources. 
Since cash used to pay dividends reduces amounts available for capital investments, we generally intend to maintain a conservative 
dividend  payout  ratio,  reserving  such  amounts  as  we  consider  necessary  for  the  maintenance  or  expansion  of  properties  in  our 
portfolio, debt reduction, the acquisition of interests in new properties as suitable opportunities arise, and such other factors as our 
Board of Trustees considers appropriate.

We paid approximately $135.5 million in cash dividends to our common and preferred shareholders in 2013. Although our 
property owner subsidiaries receive the majority of our base rental payments on a monthly basis, we intend to continue paying 
dividends quarterly. Amounts accumulated in advance of each quarterly distribution are invested by us in short-term money market 
or other suitable instruments.



General. Due to the net-lease structure of a majority of our investments, our property owner subsidiaries historically have not 
incurred significant expenditures in the ordinary course of business to maintain the properties in which we have an interest. However, 
particularly since 2008, as leases have expired, our property owner subsidiaries have incurred costs in extending the existing tenant 
leases,  re-tenanting  the  properties  with  a  single-tenant,  or  converting  the  property  to  multi-tenant  use.  The  amounts  of  these 
expenditures can vary significantly depending on tenant negotiations, market conditions and rental rates. 

51

Single-Tenant Properties. We do not anticipate significant capital expenditures at the single-tenant properties in which we have 
an interest that are subject to net or similar leases since the tenants at these properties generally bear all or substantially all of the 
cost  of  property  operations,  maintenance  and  repairs.  However,  at  certain  properties  subject  to  net  leases,  our  property  owner 
subsidiaries are responsible for replacement and/or repair of certain capital items, which may or may not be reimbursed. In addition, 
at certain single-tenant properties that are not subject to a net lease, our property owner subsidiaries have a level of property operating 
expense responsibility, which may or may not be reimbursed. 

Multi-Tenant Properties. Primarily as a result of non-renewals at single-tenant net-lease properties, we have interests in multi-
tenant properties in our consolidated portfolio. While tenants are generally responsible for increases over base year expenses, our 
property owner subsidiaries are generally responsible for the base-year expenses and capital expenditures at these properties. 

Vacant Properties. To the extent there is a vacancy in a property, our property owner subsidiary would be obligated for all 
operating expenses, including real estate taxes and insurance. If a property is vacant for an extended period of time, our property 
owner subsidiary may incur substantial capital expenditure costs to re-tenant the property.

Property Expansions. Under certain leases, tenants have the right to expand the facility located on a property in which we have 
an interest. In the past, our property owner subsidiary has generally funded, and in the future our property owner subsidiary intends 
to generally fund, these property expansions with either additional secured borrowings, the repayment of which was, and will be, 
funded out of rental increases under the leases covering the expanded properties or capital contributions from us. 

Ground Leases. The tenants of properties in which we have an interest generally pay the rental obligations on ground leases 
either directly to the fee holder or to our property owner subsidiary as increased rent. However, our property owner subsidiaries are 
responsible for these payments under certain leases and at vacant properties. 

Environmental Matters.Based upon management's ongoing review of the properties in which we have an interest, management 
is not aware of any environmental condition with respect to any of these properties, which would be reasonably likely to have a 
material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance, however, that (1) the discovery of environmental conditions, which were 
previously unknown, (2) changes in law, (3) the conduct of tenants or (4) activities relating to properties in the vicinity of the properties 
in which we have an interest, will not expose us to material liability in the future. 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 or may otherwise adversely affect the operations of the tenants of properties in which we have 
an interest.



Year ended December 31, 2013 compared with December 31, 2012. The increase in total gross revenues in 2013 of $68.3 million 
was primarily attributable to an increase in rental revenue of $66.6 million and an increase in tenant reimbursements of $2.6 million, 
offset in part by a decrease in advisory and incentive fees of $1.0 million. 

The increase in rental revenue was primarily due to (1) 2013 and 2012 property acquisition revenue of $62.1 million, including 
$27.3 million from NLS properties acquired on September 1, 2012, (2) increased occupancy revenue from the Transmerica Tower 
in Baltimore, Maryland of $0.7 million and (3) $1.9 million of revenue recognized on our office property in Orlando, Florida due to 
the commencement of a new lease.

The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $2.4 million was primarily due to (1) a reduction in the weighted-average  
interest rate on outstanding indebtedness, offset by greater debt outstanding, and (2) retirement of debt which had corresponding 
debt discount amortization.

Depreciation and amortization increased $22.0 million primarily due to the acquisition of real estate properties in 2013 and 

2012.

The increase in property operating expense of $6.2 million was primarily due to an increase in occupancy at certain  multi-tenant 

properties which had an increase in costs and the acquisition of properties with operating expense obligations.

The increase in general and administrative expense of $5.0 million was primarily due to a $4.5 million increase in personnel 

costs.

52

Non-operating income increased $1.7 million primarily due to the investment in new loans receivable in 2013, offset by reduced 
interest income earned on a loan receivable secured by an office property in Schaumburg, Illinois, which we foreclosed on in 2013.

The litigation reserve of $2.8 million in 2012 relates to a litigation that has been settled with a payment by us of $2.8 million.

The increase in debt satisfaction charges, net, of $15.9 million was primarily due to the conversion of $54.9 million of 6.00% 

Convertible Notes in 2013 and the timing of mortgage payoffs and related yield maintenance charges.

The gain on acquisition of $167.9 million primarily represents the gain recognized in 2012 due to the increase in fair value of 

our investment in NLS at the date of acquisition of the remaining interest in NLS.

Impairment charges and loan loss increased by $31.3 million due to the timing of triggering events on properties held and used 
in operations and a $13.9 million loan loss recognized in 2013 on our loan receivable collateralized by an office property in Westmont, 
Illinois.

The increase in the provision for income taxes of $2.3 million primarily relates to the tax incurred on the internal transfer of an 

industrial property from our taxable REIT subsidiary to the REIT.

The decrease in equity in earnings (losses) of non-consolidated entities of $21.7 million was primarily due to (1) a $13.3 million 
decrease in earnings from NLS primarily due to the consolidation of NLS on September 1, 2012, (2) a $7.9 million reduction due 
to the sale of our interests in Concord and CDH CDO in 2012 and (3) a $0.9 million impairment charge recognized in 2013 on an 
investment in a non-consolidated entity, offset in part by an increase in earnings from various joint ventures of $0.4 million.

Discontinued operations represent properties sold or held for sale. The increase in net income from discontinued operations of 
$16.4 million was primarily due to an increase in gains on sales of properties of $11.2 million, an increase in debt satisfaction gains, 
net of $9.1 million and a $4.8 million decrease in loss from discontinued  operations, offset in part by an increase in impairment 
charges of $7.2 million and a $1.6 million increase in provision for income taxes.

The decrease in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $2.1 million was primarily due to a decrease in earnings 

by non-wholly owned entities.

The decrease in net income attributable to common shareholders of $170.9 million was primarily due to the items discussed 

above and a reduction in preferred dividends of $7.3 million due to the repurchase of preferred shares.

The increase in net income or decrease in net loss in future periods will be closely tied to the level of acquisitions made by us. 
Without acquisitions, the sources of growth in net income are limited to index adjusted rents (such as the consumer price index), 
reduced interest expense on amortizing mortgages and variable rate indebtedness and by controlling other variable overhead costs. 
However, there are many factors beyond management's control that could offset these items including, without limitation, increased 
interest rates and tenant monetary defaults and the other risks described in this Annual Report.

Year ended December 31, 2012 compared with December 31, 2011. The increase in total gross revenues in 2012 of $37.9 million 
was primarily attributable to an increase in rental revenue of $38.8 million, offset in part by a decrease in tenant reimbursements and 
advisory and incentive fees of $0.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively. 

The increase in rental revenue was primarily due to (1) 2012 and 2011 property acquisition revenue of $24.8 million, including 
$14.1 million from NLS properties acquired on September 1, 2012, (2) increased occupancy revenue from the Transmerica Tower 
in Baltimore, Maryland of $7.5 million and (3) $3.3 million of revenue recognized on our office property in Orlando, Florida due to 
the commencement of a new lease. 

The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $7.7 million was primarily due to (1) a reduction in the weighted-average  
interest rate on outstanding indebtedness, (2) retirement of debt which had corresponding debt discount amortization, (3) lower 
deferred financing cost amortization and (4) greater interest capitalized.

Depreciation and amortization increased $6.6 million primarily due to the acquisition of real estate properties in 2012 and 2011 
offset by (1) the acceleration of amortization on certain lease intangible assets due to tenant lease terminations and (2) assets becoming 
fully amortized in 2012.

The increase in property operating expense of $1.6 million was primarily due to an increase in occupancy at certain  multi-tenant 

properties which had an increase in costs and the acquisition of properties with operating expense obligations.

53

The increase in general and administrative expense of $1.7 million was primarily due to a $2.1 million increase in personnel 

costs.

Non-operating income decreased $6.2 million primarily due to the satisfaction of notes receivable resulting in less interest earned 

and reduced interest income earned on a note receivable that was in default secured by an office property in Schaumburg, Illinois.

The change in the value of our forward equity commitment of $2.0 million was primarily due to the settlement of the commitment 

in October 2011.

The litigation reserve of $2.8 million in 2012 relates to a litigation that has been settled with a payment by us of $2.8 million.

The increase in debt satisfaction charges, net, of $9.5 million was primarily due to the conversion of $31.1 million 6.00% 
Convertible Notes in 2012 and the write-off of deferred financing costs relating to the satisfaction of the $60.6 million term loans 
during the first quarter of 2012.

The gain on acquisition of $167.9 million primarily represents the gain recognized in 2012 due to the increase in fair value of 

our investment in NLS at the date of acquisition of the remaining interest in NLS.

Impairment charges decreased by $12.7 million due to the timing of triggering events on properties held and used in operations.

The increase in the provision for income taxes of $1.8 million was primarily the result of the write-off of a deferred tax liability 
relating to the transfer of certain assets from our wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary to the REIT itself during the first quarter 
of 2011.

The decrease in equity in earnings (losses) of non-consolidated entities of $8.8 million was primarily due to (1) a $9.3 million 
decrease in earnings from NLS primarily due to the consolidation of NLS on September 1, 2012, (2) a $1.4 million reduction due 
to the consolidation in 2012 of a previously non-consolidated property and (3) a reduction in earnings from various joint ventures 
of $1.5 million, offset by a $1.8 million increase in earnings recognized on our interests in Concord and CDH CDO and a $1.6 million 
impairment charge recognized in 2011 on an investment in a non-consolidated entity.

Discontinued operations represent properties sold or held for sale. The increase in net income from discontinued operations of 
$89.3 million was primarily due to a decrease in impairment charges of $94.7 million, an increase in gains on sales of properties of 
$6.7 million and a decrease in debt satisfaction charges, net, of $0.4 million, offset in part by a $12.6 million increase in loss from 
discontinued  operations.

The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $14.5 million was primarily due to a decrease in impairment 

charges incurred by non-wholly owned entities.

The increase in net income attributable to common shareholders of $260.5 million was primarily due to the items discussed 

above.

Same-Store Results

Same-store results include all consolidated properties except properties acquired and sold in 2013 and 2012. Our historical same-
store occupancy was 97.6% at December 31, 2013 compared to 98.3% at December 31, 2012. The following presents our consolidated 
same-store net operating income, or NOI, for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 ($000):

2012

The change in our same-store NOI from 2012 to 2013 was a decrease of 0.2%. This was primarily due to an increase in property 
operating expenses due to the timing of new tenant leases and the establishment of base years for certain tenants. While our same-
store NOI declined year-to-year, we expect this trend to reverse as a result of our fixed annual base rent escalations, which are in 
approximately half of the leases in our consolidated portfolio.

Funds From Operations

We believe that Funds from Operations, or FFO, which is a non-GAAP measure, is a widely recognized and appropriate measure 
of the performance of an equity REIT. We believe FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties 
in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude GAAP historical 
cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes ratably 
over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. As a result, FFO provides a performance 
measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating 
costs, development activities, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing 
perspective that may not necessarily be apparent from net income.

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, defines FFO as “net income (or loss) computed in 
accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization and after 
adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.” NAREIT clarified its computation of FFO to exclude impairment 
charges on depreciable real estate owned directly or indirectly. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in 
accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

We present Reported Company FFO, which differs from FFO as it includes our OP units, our Series C Preferred Shares, and 
our 6.00% Convertible Notes, because these securities are convertible, at the holder's option, into our common shares. Management 
believes this is appropriate and relevant to securities analysts, investors and other interested parties because we present Reported 
Company FFO on a company-wide basis as if all securities that are convertible, at the holder's option, into our common shares, are 
converted. We also present Company FFO, as adjusted, which adjusts Reported Company FFO for certain items which we believe 
are non-recurring and not indicative of the operating results of our real estate portfolio. We believe this is an appropriate presentation 
as it is frequently requested by security analysts, investors and other interested parties. Since others do not calculate funds from 
operations in a similar fashion, Reported Company FFO and Company FFO, as adjusted, may not be comparable to similarly titled 
measures as reported by others. Reported Company FFO and Company FFO, as adjusted, should not be considered as an alternative 
to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

As of December 31, 2013, we had investments in various real estate entities with varying structures. The real estate investments 
owned by these entities are generally financed with non-recourse debt. Non-recourse debt is generally defined as debt whereby the 
lenders' sole recourse with respect to borrower defaults is limited to the value of the assets collateralized by the debt. The lender 
generally does not have recourse against any other assets owned by the borrower or any of the members or partners of the borrower, 
except for certain specified exceptions listed in the particular loan documents. These exceptions generally relate to "bad boy" acts, 
including fraud and breaches of material representations. We have guaranteed such obligations for certain of our property owner 
subsidiaries and joint ventures.



The following summarizes our principal contractual obligations as of December 31, 2013 ($000's):

Mortgages and notes payable(1)
Credit facility borrowings(2)
Term loans payable

4.  Matures in 2030, however holders have the right to redeem the notes on 01/15/17, 01/15/20 and 01/15/25. Amounts exclude debt discount of $1.5 million.
5.  Includes variable-rate debt subject to interest rate swap agreements.
6.  Includes ground lease payments and office rents. Amounts disclosed do not include rents that adjust to fair market value. In addition, certain ground lease 

payments due under bond leases allow for a right of offset between the lease obligation and the debt service and accordingly are not included. 

In addition, we guarantee certain tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of certain property owner 
subsidiaries when required by the related tenant or lender. However, we do not believe these guarantees are material to us as the 
obligations under and risks associated with such guarantees are priced into the rent under the lease or the value of the property.

Our exposure to market risk relates primarily to our variable rate debt and fixed rate debt. As of December 31, 2013, we had 
$48.0 million of consolidated variable rate indebtedness not subject to an outstanding interest rate swap agreement. As of December 31, 
2012, there was no consolidated variable rate indebtedness not subject to an interest rate swap agreement outstanding. During 2013 
and 2012, our variable rate indebtedness had a weighted-average interest rate of 2.0% and 2.5%, respectively. Had the weighted-
average interest rate been 100 basis points higher, our interest expense for 2013 and 2012 would have been increased by approximately 
$1.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, our consolidated fixed rate debt was approximately 
$2.0 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, which represented 97.7% and 100.0%, respectively, of total long-term indebtedness in 
each year. 

For  certain  of  our  financial  instruments,  fair  values  are  not  readily  available  since  there  are  no  active  trading  markets  as 
characterized by current exchanges between willing parties. Accordingly, we derive or estimate fair values using various valuation 
techniques, such as computing the present value of estimated future cash flows using discount rates commensurate with the risks 
involved. However, the determination of estimated cash flows may be subjective and imprecise. Changes in assumptions or estimation 
methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values. The following fair values were determined using the interest 
rates that we believe our outstanding fixed rate debt would warrant as of December 31, 2013 and are indicative of the interest rate 
environment  as  of  December 31,  2013,  and  do  not  take  into  consideration  the  effects  of  subsequent  interest  rate  fluctuations. 
Accordingly, we estimate that the fair value of our fixed rate debt is $2.0 billion as of December 31, 2013.

Our interest rate risk objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate fluctuations on earnings and cash flows and to lower our 
overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates through the 
use of fixed rate debt instruments to the extent that reasonably favorable rates are obtainable with such arrangements. We generally 
enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps or caps to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial 
instrument or to effectively lock the interest rate on a portion of our variable rate debt. As of December 31, 2013, we have eight 
interest rate swap agreements in our consolidated portfolio.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for 
performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. Our system 
of internal control over financial reporting was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial 
reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted 
accounting principles. Our system of internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that (1) pertain to 
the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; 
(2)  provide  reasonable  assurance  that  transactions  are  recorded  as  necessary  to  permit  preparation  of  financial  statements  in 
accordance  with  U.S. generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  and  that  receipts  and  expenditures  are  being  made  only  in 
accordance with authorizations of our management and the members of our Board of Trustees; and (3) provide reasonable assurance 
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material 
effect on our financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined 
to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance that financial statements are fairly presented in accordance with U.S. generally 
accepted accounting principles.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. In 
assessing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, management used as guidance the criteria established 
in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission 
in 1992. Based upon the assessment performed, management believes that our internal control over financial reporting is effective 
as of December 31, 2013.

Our independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, independently assessed the effectiveness of our internal 

control over financial reporting. KPMG LLP has issued a report which is included on page 62 of this Annual Report.

The Trustees and Shareholders 
Lexington Realty Trust:

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  of  Lexington  Realty  Trust  and  subsidiaries  (the 
“Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive 
income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 
2013. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the accompanying 
financial  statement  schedule  III. These  consolidated  financial  statements  and  financial  statement  schedule  are  the 
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial 
statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United 
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting 
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles 
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In  our  opinion,  the  consolidated  financial  statements  referred  to  above  present  fairly,  in  all  material  respects,  the 
financial position of Lexington Realty Trust and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of 
their  operations  and  their  cash  flows  for  each  of  the  years  in  the  three-year  period  ended  December 31,  2013,  in 
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement 
schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, 
in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United 
States), Lexington Realty Trust’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria 
established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations 
of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated February 26, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on 
the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

The Trustees and Shareholders 
Lexington Realty Trust:

We  have  audited  Lexington  Realty  Trust’s  (the  “Company’s”)  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  of 
December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the 
Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  of  the  Treadway  Commission  (COSO).  The  Company’s  management  is 
responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness 
of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal 
Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over 
financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United 
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether 
effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining 
an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and 
testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit 
also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our 
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

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 trustees 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.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as 
of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the 
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United 
States), the consolidated balance sheets of Lexington Realty Trust and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, 
and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows 
for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2013, and the related financial statement schedule 
III, and our report dated February 26, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements 
and financial statement schedule.

The Company

Lexington Realty Trust (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except when the context only applies to the parent entity, 
the “Company”) is a self-managed and self-administered Maryland statutory real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns 
a diversified portfolio of equity and debt investments in single-tenant properties and land. The Company also provides 
investment advisory and asset management services to investors in the single-tenant area. As of December 31, 2013 and 
2012, the Company had equity ownership interests in approximately 220 consolidated properties located in 41 states. A 
majority of the real properties in which the Company had an interest and all land interests are generally subject to net leases 
or similar leases where the tenant pays all or substantially all of the cost, including cost increases, for real estate taxes, 
insurance, utilities and ordinary maintenance of the property. However, certain leases provide that the landlord is responsible 
for certain operating expenses.

The Company believes it has qualified as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). 
Accordingly, the Company will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at 
least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. The Company is permitted to participate in certain 
activities from which it was previously precluded in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities 
are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) under the Code. As such, the TRS 
are subject to federal income taxes on the income from these activities.

The  Company  conducts  its  operations  either  directly  or  indirectly  through  (1)  property  owner  subsidiaries  and  lender 
subsidiaries, (2) operating partnerships in which the Company is the sole unit holder of the general partner and the sole unit 
holder of the limited partner that holds a majority of the limited partner interests (“OP units”) or (3) Lexington Realty 
Advisors, Inc. (“LRA”), a wholly-owned TRS. As of December 31, 2013, the Company controlled one operating partnership: 
Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. (“LCIF”). On December 30, 2013, another operating partnership, Lepercq Corporate 
Income  Fund  II  L.P.  (“LCIF  II”),  was  merged  with  and  into  LCIF,  with  LCIF  as  the  surviving  entity.  Property  owner 
subsidiaries are landlords under leases for properties in which the Company has an interest and/or borrowers under loan 
agreements secured by properties in which the Company has an interest and lender subsidiaries are lenders under loan 
agreements where the Company made an investment in a loan asset, but in all cases are separate and distinct legal entities.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual 
basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The financial statements 
reflect  the  accounts  of  the  Company  and  its  consolidated  subsidiaries.  The  Company  consolidates  its  wholly-owned 
subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means 
other than voting rights if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Entities which the 
Company does not control and entities which are VIEs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary are accounted 
for under appropriate GAAP.

If an investment is determined to be a VIE, the Company performs an analysis to determine if the Company is the primary 
beneficiary of the VIE. GAAP requires a VIE to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the 
party that has a controlling financial interest in an entity. In order for a party to have a controlling financial interest in an 
entity, it must have (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic 
performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of an entity that could potentially be 
significant to the VIE.

Consolidated Variable Interest Entity. The Company's consolidated VIE was determined to be a VIE primarily because the 
entity's equity holders' obligation to absorb losses is protected. The Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary 
of the VIE because it has a controlling financial interest in the entity. 

70

 


($000, except share/unit data)

The Company's wholly-owned entity which owns an office building in Greenville, South Carolina is a VIE and is consolidated 
by the Company. The tenant has an option to purchase the property on December 31, 2014 at fair market value, but not for 
less than $10,710 and not for greater than $11,550. If the tenant does not exercise the purchase option, the Company has 
the right to require the tenant to purchase the property for $10,710. 

Non-Consolidated Variable Interest Entities. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company held variable interests in certain 
non-consolidated VIEs; however, the Company was not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as the Company does not 
have a controlling financial interest in the entities. The Company has certain acquisition commitments and/ or acquisition, 
development and construction arrangements with VIEs.  The Company is obligated to fund certain amounts as discussed 
in note 4.

Earnings Per Share. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) reduced by preferred 
dividends and amounts allocated to certain non-vested share-based payment awards, if applicable, by the weighted-average 
number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share amounts are similarly computed 
but include the effect, when dilutive, of in-the-money common share options, OP units and put options of certain convertible 
securities.

Use of Estimates. Management has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of 
assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses 
to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions are based 
on management's best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis 
using  historical  experience  and  other  factors,  including  the  current  economic  environment.  The  current  economic 
environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions. Management adjusts such 
estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts 
receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the 
determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets, 
loans receivable and equity method investments, valuation of derivative financial instruments and the useful lives of long-
lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements. The Company follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") 
Accounting  Standards  Codification  ("ASC")  Topic  820,  Fair  Value  Measurements  and  Disclosures  ("Topic  820"),  to 
determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework 
for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value 
hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted 
prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable 
prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable 
inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 
1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that 
maximize  the  use  of  observable  inputs  and  minimize  the  use  of  unobservable  inputs  to  the  extent  possible,  as  well  as 
considering counterparty credit risk. The Company has formally elected to apply the portfolio exception within Topic 820 
with respect to measuring counterparty risk for all of its derivative transactions subject to master netting arrangements.

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless 
another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the 
leased property. Renewal options in leases with rental terms that are lower than those in the primary term are excluded from 
the calculation of straight-line rent if the renewals are not reasonably assured. If the Company funds tenant improvements 
and the improvements are deemed to be owned by the Company, revenue recognition will commence when the improvements 
are substantially completed and possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. If the Company determines 
that the tenant allowances are lease incentives, the Company commences revenue recognition when possession or control 
of the space is turned over to the tenant for tenant work to begin. The lease incentive is recorded as a deferred expense and 
amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. The Company recognizes lease 
termination fees as rental revenue in the period received and writes off unamortized lease-related intangible and other lease-
related account balances, provided there are no further Company obligations under the lease. Otherwise, such fees and 
balances are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining obligation period with the termination payments being 
recorded as a component of rent receivable-deferred or deferred revenue on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

71



($000, except share/unit data)

Gains on sales of real estate are recognized based upon the specific timing of the sale as measured against various criteria 
related to the terms of the transactions and any continuing involvement associated with the properties. If the sales criteria 
are not met, the gain is deferred and the finance, installment or cost recovery method, as appropriate, is applied until the 
sales criteria are met. To the extent the Company sells a property and retains a partial ownership interest in the property, 
the Company recognizes gain to the extent of the third-party ownership interest.

Accounts Receivable. The Company continuously monitors collections from tenants and makes a provision for estimated 
losses based upon historical experience and any specific tenant collection issues that the Company has identified. As of 
December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts was not significant.

Purchase Accounting and Acquisition of Real Estate. The fair value of the real estate acquired, which includes the impact 
of fair value adjustments for assumed mortgage debt related to property acquisitions, is allocated to the acquired tangible 
assets, consisting of land, building and improvements and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value 
of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each 
case on their fair values. Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred and are included in property operating expense in the 
accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations. Also, noncontrolling interests acquired are recorded at estimated fair 
market value.

The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land, building and improvements and fixtures 
and equipment) is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant. The “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land 
and  building  and  improvements  based  on  management's  determination  of  relative  fair  values  of  these  assets.  Factors 
considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-
up  periods  considering  current  market  conditions  and  costs  to  execute  similar  leases.  In  estimating  carrying  costs, 
management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during 
the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases 
including leasing commissions.

In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-
market lease values are recorded based on the difference between the current in-place lease rent and management's estimate 
of current market rents. Below-market lease intangibles are recorded as part of deferred revenue and amortized into rental 
revenue over the non-cancelable periods and bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. Above-market leases are 
recorded as part of intangible assets and amortized as a direct charge against rental revenue over the non-cancelable portion 
of the respective leases.

The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases and tenant relationship values, is 
measured by the excess of (1) the purchase price paid for a property over (2) the estimated fair value of the property as if 
vacant, determined as set forth above. This aggregate value is allocated between in-place lease values and tenant relationship 
values based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease. The value of in-place leases 
is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods and any bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. 
The value of tenant relationships is amortized to expense over the applicable lease term plus expected renewal periods.

Depreciation is determined by the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic useful lives of the properties. 
The Company generally depreciates its real estate assets over periods ranging up to 40 years.

Impairment of Real Estate. The Company evaluates the carrying value of all tangible and intangible real estate assets held 
for investment for possible impairment when an event or change in circumstance has occurred that indicates its carrying 
value may not be recoverable. The evaluation includes estimating and reviewing anticipated future undiscounted cash flows 
to be derived from the asset. If such cash flows are less than the asset's carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized 
to the extent by which the asset's carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value, which may be below the balance of any 
non-recourse financing. Estimating future cash flows and fair values is highly subjective and such estimates could differ 
materially from actual results.

72



($000, except share/unit data)

Investments in Non-Consolidated Entities. The Company accounts for its investments in 50% or less owned entities under 
the  equity  method,  unless  consolidation  is  required.  If  the  Company's  investment  in  the  entity  is  insignificant  and  the 
Company has no influence over the control of the entity then the entity is accounted for under the cost method.

Impairment of Equity Method Investments. The Company assesses whether there are indicators that the value of its equity 
method investments may be impaired. An impairment charge is recognized only if the Company determines that a decline 
in the value of the investment below its carrying value is other-than-temporary. The assessment of impairment is highly 
subjective and involves the application of significant assumptions and judgments about the Company's intent and ability to 
recover its investment given the nature and operations of the underlying investment, including the level of the Company's 
involvement therein, among other factors. To the extent an impairment is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the loss is 
measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment.

Loans Receivable. Loans held for investment are intended to be held to maturity and, accordingly, are carried at cost, net 
of unamortized loan origination costs and fees, loan purchase discounts, and net of an allowance for loan losses when such 
loan is deemed to be impaired. Loan origination costs and fees and loan purchase discounts are amortized over the term of 
the loan. The Company considers a loan impaired when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that it 
will be unable to collect all amounts due for both principal and interest according to the contractual terms of the loan 
agreement. Significant judgments are required in determining whether impairment has occurred. The Company performs 
an impairment analysis by comparing either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective 
interest rate, the loan's observable current market price or the fair value of the underlying collateral to the net carrying value 
of the loan, which may result in an allowance and corresponding loan loss charge. Interest income is recorded on a cash 
basis for impaired loans. 

Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. The Company evaluates loans receivable where the Company 
participates in residual profits through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether the Company has the same 
risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture partner. Where the Company concludes that such arrangements are more 
appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, the Company reflects such loan receivable as an equity investment in 
real estate under construction in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan 
receivable and the Company records capitalized interest during the construction period. In arrangements where the Company 
engages a developer to construct a property or provide funds to a tenant to develop a property, the Company will capitalize 
the  funds  provided  to  the  developer/tenant  and  internal  costs  of  interest  and  real  estate  taxes,  if  applicable,  during  the 
construction period.

Properties Held For Sale. Assets and liabilities of properties that meet various held for sale criteria, including whether it is 
probable that a sale will occur within 12 months, are presented separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with assets 
and liabilities being separately stated. The operating results of these properties are reflected as discontinued operations in 
the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Properties classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of net carrying 
value or estimated fair value less costs to sell and depreciation and amortization are no longer recognized. Properties that 
do not meet the held for sale criteria are accounted for as operating properties.

Deferred Expenses. Deferred expenses consist primarily of debt and leasing costs. Debt costs are amortized using the straight-
line method, which approximates the interest method, over the terms of the debt instruments and leasing costs are amortized 
over the term of the related lease.

Derivative Financial Instruments. The Company accounts for its interest rate swap agreements in accordance with FASB 
ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("Topic 815"). In accordance with Topic 815, these agreements are carried on 
the balance sheet at their respective fair values, as an asset if fair value is positive, or as a liability if fair value is negative. 
If the interest rate swap is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the interest rate swap's change in fair 
value is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss); the ineffective portion, if any, is recognized in 
earnings as an increase or decrease to interest expense.

73



($000, except share/unit data)

Upon entering into hedging transactions, the Company documents the relationship between the interest rate swap agreement 
and the hedged item. The Company also documents its risk-management policies, including objectives and strategies, as 
they relate to its hedging activities. The Company assesses, both at inception of a hedge and on an on-going basis, whether 
or not the hedge is highly effective. The Company will discontinue hedge accounting on a prospective basis with changes 
in the estimated fair value reflected in earnings when (1) it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting 
cash flows of a hedged item (including forecasted transactions), (2) it is no longer probable that the forecasted transaction 
will  occur  or  (3) it  is  determined  that  designating  the  derivative  as  an  interest  rate  swap  is  no  longer  appropriate. The 
Company does and may continue to utilize interest rate swap and cap agreements to manage interest rate risk, but does not 
anticipate entering into derivative transactions for speculative trading purposes.

Stock Compensation. The Company maintains an equity participation plan. Non-vested share grants generally vest either 
based upon (1) time, (2) performance and/or (3) market conditions. Options granted under the plan in 2010 vest over a five-
year period and expire ten years from the date of grant. Options granted under the plan in 2008 vest upon attainment of 
certain market performance measures and expire ten years from the date of grant. All share-based payments to employees, 
including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations based on their 
fair values. 

Tax Status. The Company has made an election to qualify, and believes it is operating so as to qualify, as a REIT for federal 
income  tax  purposes. Accordingly,  the  Company  generally  will  not  be  subject  to  federal  income  tax,  provided  that 
distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under Sections 856 through 
860 of the Code.

The Company is permitted to participate in certain activities from which it was previously precluded in order to maintain 
its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT 
subsidiaries under the Code. As such, the Company is subject to federal and state income taxes on the income from these 
activities.

Income taxes, primarily related to the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries, are accounted for under the asset and liability 
method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences 
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating 
loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the 
year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months 
or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash. Restricted cash is comprised primarily of cash balances held in escrow with lenders.

Environmental Matters. Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, 
an owner of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, 
on, in or under such property as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. These liabilities 
may include government fines, penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. Such laws often impose 
liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence or disposal of such substances. 
Although  most  of  the  tenants  of  properties  in  which  the  Company  has  an  interest  are  primarily  responsible  for  any 
environmental damage and claims related to the leased premises, in the event of the bankruptcy or inability of the tenant 
of such premises to satisfy any obligations with respect to such environmental liability, or if the tenant is not responsible, 
the Company's property owner subsidiary may be required to satisfy any such obligations, should they exist. In addition, 
the property owner subsidiary, as the owner of such a property, may be held directly liable for any such damages or claims 
irrespective of the provisions of any lease. As of December 31, 2013, the Company was not aware of any environmental 
matter relating to any of its investments that would have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Segment Reporting. The Company operates generally in one industry segment, single-tenant real estate assets.

Reclassifications. Certain amounts included in prior years' financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 
current year presentation, including certain statement of operations captions including activities for properties sold during 
2013, which are presented as discontinued operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance.  In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting 
Standards  Update  No. 2013-02:  Comprehensive  Income  (Topic  220):  Reporting  of  Amounts  Reclassified  Out  of 
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, to improve the transparency of reporting the reclassifications of significant 
amounts out of accumulated other comprehensive income. This guidance requires entities to present the effects on the line 
items of net income of significant reclasses from accumulated other comprehensive income, either where net income is 
presented  or  in  the  notes,  as  well  as  cross-reference  to  other  disclosures  currently  required  under  GAAP  for  other 
reclassification items (that are not required under GAAP) to be reclassified directly to net income in their entirety in the 
same reporting period. The new disclosure requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 
15, 2012. The new disclosures are required for both interim and annual reporting. The implementation of this guidance did 
not have an impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 

(3) 

Earnings Per Share

A significant portion of the Company's non-vested share-based payment awards are considered participating securities and 
as such, the Company is required to use the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. 
Under the two-class computation method, net losses are not allocated to participating securities unless the holder of the 
security has a contractual obligation to share in the losses. The non-vested share-based payment awards are not allocated 
losses as the awards do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses of the Company.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations 
for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2013:

On September 1, 2012, the Company, together with an operating partnership subsidiary, acquired the remaining common 
equity interest in Net Lease Strategic Assets Fund L.P. (“NLS”) from Inland American (Net Lease) Sub, LLC (“Inland”) 
that  the  Company did  not  already  own  for  a cash  payment of  $9,438  and  the assumption  of all  outstanding liabilities.  
Immediately prior to the acquisition, the Company owned 15% of NLS's common equity and 100% of NLS's preferred 
equity and its investment balance in NLS was $40,047.  At the date of acquisition, NLS owned 41 properties totaling 5.8 
million square feet in 23 states, plus a 40% tenant-in-common interest in an office property.  The Company's investment in 
NLS had previously been accounted for under the equity method and is now consolidated. The acquisition resulted in a 
remeasurement of the net assets acquired to fair value.  The Company engaged an independent third party to determine the 
fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the fair value of amounts recognized for each major class of assets and 
liabilities:

The Company recognized a gain on the transaction in the Consolidated Statement of Operations of $167,864 primarily 
related to the revaluation of the Company's equity interest in NLS for the difference between its carrying value in NLS and 
the fair value of its ownership interest at acquisition. The noncontrolling interest share of the fair value of the net assets 
acquired was $373.

Intangible assets and liabilities recorded in connection with the above acquisition are set forth as follows:

Sales of Real Estate and Discontinued Operations

For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company disposed of its interests in certain properties (excluding 
Pemlex LLC, see note 9) generating aggregate net proceeds of $75,519, $142,022 and $124,039, respectively, which resulted 
in gains on sales of $24,472, $13,291 and  $6,557, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, 
the Company recognized net debt satisfaction gains (charges) relating to these properties of  $8,955, $(178) and $(606), 
respectively. These gains (charges) are included in discontinued operations.

Impairment of Real Estate Investments

The Company assesses on a regular basis whether there are any indicators that the carrying value of real estate assets  may 
be  impaired.  Potential  indicators  may  include  an  increase  in  vacancy  at  a  property,  tenant  reduction  in  utilization  of  a 
property, tenant financial instability and the potential sale of the property in the near future. An asset is determined to be 
impaired if the asset's carrying value is in excess of its estimated fair value. 

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized aggregate impairment charges of $21,640, $4,262 and $17,008, 
respectively, on real estate assets classified in continuing operations. The Company has explored the possible disposition 
of some non-core properties, including retail, underperforming and multi-tenant properties and determined that the expected 
undiscounted cash flows based upon revised estimated holding periods of certain of these properties were below the current 
carrying values. Accordingly, the Company reduced the carrying value of these properties to their estimated fair values. 

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized $12,920, $5,707 and $100,435, respectively, of impairment charges 
in discontinued operations, relating to real estate assets that were ultimately disposed of below their carrying value.

(1)  Loan carrying value includes accrued interest and is net of origination costs, loan losses and fee eliminations, if any.
(2)   The Company is committed to lend up to $32,600.
(3)  The Company is committed to lend up to $10,660.
(4)  Borrower defaulted on the loan. The Company did not record interest of $2,939 and $2,647 in 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing the interest 
earned since default. In 2013, the Company foreclosed on the borrower and acquired the office property collateral which is net leased through 
December 2022. 

(5)  Borrower is delinquent on debt service payments. Tenant at office property collateral terminated its lease. The Company recognized an impairment 
of $13,939 during 2013. During 2013, the Company recognized $1,737 of interest income relating to the impaired loan and the loan had an average 
recorded investment value of $25,562. At December 31, 2013, the impaired loan receivable had a net carrying value of $12,610 and a contractual 
unpaid balance of $26,549.

(6)  The Company is committed to lend up to $85,000. During construction advances accrue interest at 6.5% per annum. Estimated construction completion 

is March 2014.

The Company has two types of financing receivables: loans receivable and a capitalized financing lease. The Company 
determined that its financing receivables operate within one portfolio segment as they are both within the same industry 
and use the same impairment methodology. The Company's loans receivable are secured by commercial real estate assets 
and the capitalized financing lease is for a commercial office property located in Greenville, South Carolina.  In addition, 
the Company assesses all financing receivables for impairment, when warranted, based on an individual analysis of each 
receivable.

The Company's financing receivables operate within one class of financing receivables as these assets are collateralized by 
commercial real estate and similar metrics are used to monitor the risk and performance of these assets. The Company's 
management uses credit quality indicators to monitor financing receivables such as quality of collateral, the underlying 
tenant's credit rating and collection experience. As of December 31, 2013, the financing receivables were performing as 
anticipated other than the Westmont, Illinois loan as discussed above and there were no other significant delinquent amounts 
outstanding.

The majority of the inputs used to value the Company's interest rate swap asset (liability) fall within Level 2 of the fair 
value hierarchy, such as observable market interest rate curves; however, the credit valuation associated with the interest 
rate swap liability utilizes Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default 
by the Company and its counterparties. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company determined that the credit valuation 
adjustment relative to the overall interest rate swap asset (liability) is not significant. As a result, the entire interest rate swap 
asset (liability) has been classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company estimates the fair value of its real estate assets, including non-consolidated real estate assets, by using income 
and market valuation techniques. The Company may estimate fair values using market information such as broker opinions 
of value, recent sales data for similar assets or discounted cash flow models, which primarily rely on Level 3 inputs. The 
cash flow models include estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. These cash flows may include 
contractual rental revenues, projected future rental revenues and expenses and forecasted tenant improvements and lease 
commissions based upon market conditions determined through discussion with local real estate professionals, experience 
the Company has with its other owned properties in such markets and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and 
discount rates utilized in these models are estimated by management based upon rates that management believes to be within 
a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties based upon an analysis of factors such as property 
and tenant quality, geographical location and local supply and demand observations. To the extent the Company under 
estimates  forecasted  cash  outflows  (tenant  improvements,  lease  commissions  and  operating  costs)  or  over  estimates 
forecasted cash inflows (rental revenue rates), the estimated fair value of its real estate assets could be overstated.

($000, except share/unit data)

The Company estimates the fair values of its loans receivable by using an estimated discounted cash flow analysis consisting 
of scheduled cash flows and discount rate estimates to approximate those that a willing buyer and seller might use and/or 
the estimated value of the underlying collateral. The fair value of the Company's debt is estimated by using a discounted 
cash flow analysis, based upon estimates of market interest rates. 

Fair values cannot be determined with precision, may not be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets 
and may not be realized upon sale. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, 
and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates, liquidity risks and estimates of future cash flows, 
could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts.

Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. The Company estimates that the fair value 
of  cash  equivalents,  restricted  cash,  accounts  receivable  and  accounts  payable  approximates  carrying  value  due  to  the 
relatively short maturity of the instruments.

Investment in and Advances to Non-Consolidated Entities

In October 2013, the Company formed a joint venture, in which the Company has a 15.0% interest, that acquired a portfolio 
of veterinary hospitals for $39,456, which are net leased for a 20-year term. The acquisition was partially funded by a 
$18,791 non-recourse mortgage loan with a fixed interest rate of  4.01% and maturity of November 2018. 

In August 2013, the Company invested $5,000 in a joint venture, which acquired the fee interest and the related office 
building improvements of a property in Baltimore, Maryland. Beginning in October 2015, the Company has the right to 
require the redemption of its interest in the joint venture in exchange for a distribution to the Company of the fee interest, 
which is currently leased for a 99-year term to the joint venture.

In July 2013, the Company acquired its consolidated joint venture partners' interest in an industrial facility in Long Island 
City, New York for a payment of $8,918, which was recorded as a distribution to the partner in accordance with GAAP.

During 2012, the Company formed two joint ventures in which it has a minority interest. One joint venture acquired a retail 
property in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida for $29,750 which was net leased for an approximate 15-year term. The Company 
had a 36% interest in the venture and provided a $12,000 non-recourse mortgage loan to the venture which was repaid in 
full in February 2013. The Company received a distribution of $2,557 in March 2013, a portion of which represented a 
return of capital reducing the Company's ownership interest to 25%.

The second joint venture, in which the Company has a 15% interest, acquired a 100% economic interest in an inpatient 
rehabilitation hospital in Humble, Texas for $27,750, which was net leased for an approximate 17-year term. The acquisition 
was partially funded by a non-recourse mortgage with an original principal amount of $15,260, which bears interest at a 
fixed rate of 4.7% and matures in May 2017.

In July 2012, the Company sold its interest in Pemlex LLC, a consolidated subsidiary, for $13,218 in connection with its 
restructuring. No gain or loss was recognized in the transaction as the investment was sold at its cost basis.

The Company's investments in Concord Debt Holding LLC and CDH CDO LLC were valued at zero and the Company 
recognized income on the cash basis. During 2012, the Company sold all of its interest in Concord Debt Holding LLC and 
CDH CDO LLC for $7,000 in cash.

Other. During 2013 and 2011, the Company recognized other-than-temporary impairment charges on a non-consolidated 
joint venture acquired in the merger with Newkirk due to changes in the Company's estimate of net proceeds to be received 
upon liquidation of the joint venture. Accordingly, the Company recognized $925 and $1,559, respectively, in impairment 
charges in equity in earnings (losses) of non-consolidated entities. 

83



($000, except share/unit data)

The Company's remaining equity method investments consist of interests in six partnerships with ownership percentages 
ranging between 27% and 40%, which own primarily net-leased properties. All profits, losses and cash flows are distributed 
in accordance with the respective partnership agreements. The partnerships are encumbered by $27,793 in mortgage debt 
(the Company's proportionate share is $9,737) with interest rates ranging from 5.2% to 10.6% with a weighted-average rate 
of 7.2% and maturity dates ranging from 2015 to 2016.

LRA earns advisory fees from certain of these non-consolidated entities, including NLS, for services related to acquisitions, 
asset management and debt placement. Advisory fees earned from these non-consolidated investments were $512, $875 
and $804 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(10)  Mortgages and Notes Payable

The Company had outstanding mortgages and notes payable of $1,197,489 and $1,415,961 as of December 31, 2013 and 
2012, respectively. Interest rates, including imputed rates on mortgages and notes payable, ranged from 3.6% to 8.5% at 
December 31, 2013 and the mortgages and notes payable mature between 2014 and 2027. Interest rates, including imputed 
rates, ranged from 3.6% to 8.5% at December 31, 2012. The weighted-average interest rate at December 31, 2013 and 2012 
was approximately 5.3% and 5.6%, respectively.

On February 12, 2013, the Company refinanced its $300,000 secured revolving credit facility with a $300,000 unsecured 
revolving credit facility with KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”), as agent. The unsecured revolving credit facility 
matures in February 2017 but can be extended until February 2018 at the Company’s option. The unsecured revolving credit 
facility bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.50% to 2.05% based on the Company’s leverage ratio, as defined therein.  Since the 
Company has obtained an investment-grade unsecured debt rating from both Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”) 
and Standard & Poor’s Rating Services (“S&P”), the interest rate under the unsecured revolving credit facility ranges from 
LIBOR plus 0.95% to 1.725% (1.15% as of December 31, 2013) depending on the Company's unsecured investment-grade 
debt rating. In addition, the Company increased its availability under the unsecured revolving credit facility from $300,000 
to $400,000. At December 31, 2013, the unsecured revolving credit facility had $48,000 outstanding, outstanding letters of 
credit of $7,644 and availability of $344,356, subject to covenant compliance. 

In connection with the refinancing discussed above, the Company also procured a 5-year $250,000 unsecured term loan 
facility from KeyBank, as agent. The unsecured term loan matures in February 2018, required regular payments of interest 
only at interest rates ranging from LIBOR plus 1.45% to 2.00% dependent on the Company's leverage ratio, as defined 
therein and can be prepaid without penalty. Since the Company has obtained an investment-grade unsecured debt rating 
from both Moody’s and S&P, the interest rate under the unsecured term loan ranges from LIBOR plus 1.10% to 2.10% 
(1.35%  as  of  December 31,  2013)  depending  on  the  Company’s  unsecured  investment-grade  debt  rating.  In  2013,  the 
Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the LIBOR component at a weighted-average rate of 1.05% 
through February 2018 on the $151,000 of outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings (see note 22).

During 2012, the Company procured a $255,000 secured term loan from Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells 
Fargo”), as agent. The term loan matures in January 2019. The term loan required regular payments of interest only at 
interest rates ranging from LIBOR plus 2.00% to 2.85% dependent on the Company's leverage ratio, as defined therein. 
Since the Company has obtained an investment-grade unsecured debt rating from both Moody’s and S&P, the interest rate 
under the secured term loan ranges from LIBOR plus 1.50% to 2.25% (1.75% as of December 31, 2013) depending on the 
Company's unsecured investment-grade debt rating. The Company may prepay any outstanding borrowings under the term 
loan facility at a premium through January 12, 2016 and at par thereafter. During 2012, the Company entered into interest 
rate swap  agreements to fix  the LIBOR component at  a weighted-average rate of 1.42%  through January  2019 on  the 
$255,000 of outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings. The term loan was initially secured by ownership interest pledges by 
certain subsidiaries that collectively owned a borrowing base of properties. 

The unsecured revolving credit facility and the unsecured term loans are subject to financial covenants, which the Company 
was in compliance with at December 31, 2013.

The Company had $25,000 and $35,551 secured term loans with KeyBank, which were satisfied in January 2012 and the 
Company recognized debt satisfaction charges of $1,578 as a result of the satisfaction.

($000, except share/unit data)

Included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, the Company recognized debt satisfaction gains (charges), net, 
excluding discontinued operations, of $(11,861), $(16) and $45 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, 
respectively, due to the satisfaction of mortgages and notes payable other than those disclosed elsewhere in these financial 
statements. In addition, the Company capitalized $2,397, $3,062 and $1,792 in interest, including discontinued operations, 
for the years ended 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Mortgages payable and secured loans are generally collateralized by real estate and the related leases. Certain mortgages 
payable have yield maintenance or defeasance requirements relating to any prepayments. In addition, certain mortgages are 
cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted.

Scheduled principal and balloon payments for mortgages, notes payable, credit facility borrowings and term loans for the 
next five years and thereafter are as follows:

Senior Notes, Convertible Notes, Exchangeable Notes and Trust Preferred Securities

In June 2013, the Company issued $250,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Senior Notes due 2023 (“Senior Notes”) 
at an issuance price of 99.026% of the principal amount. The Senior Notes are unsecured, pay interest semi-annually in 
arrears and mature in June 2023. The Company may redeem the notes at its option at any time prior to maturity in whole 
or in part by paying the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus a premium. The Company issued these Senior 
Notes at an initial discount of $2,435 which is being recognized as additional interest expense over the term of the Senior 
Notes. The Senior Notes are rated Baa2 and BBB- by Moody’s and S&P, respectively.

During 2010, the Company issued $115,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Convertible Guaranteed Notes. The 
notes pay interest semi-annually in arrears and mature in January 2030. The holders of the notes may require the Company 
to repurchase their notes in January 2017, January 2020 and January 2025 for cash equal to 100% of the notes to be 
repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. The Company may not redeem any notes prior to January 2017, except 
to preserve its REIT status. As of the date of filing this Annual Report, the notes have a conversion rate of 147.8206 
common shares per one thousand principal amount of the notes, representing a conversion price of approximately $6.76 
per common share. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances, including increases in the 
Company's dividend rate above a certain threshold and the issuance of stock dividends. The notes are convertible by the 
holders  under  certain  circumstances  for  cash,  common  shares  or  a  combination  of  cash  and  common  shares  at  the 
Company's election. The notes are convertible prior to the close of business on the second business day immediately 
preceding the stated maturity date, at any time beginning in January 2029 and also upon the occurrence of specified 
events. During 2013 and 2012, $54,905 and $31,104 aggregate principal amount of the notes were converted for 7,944,673 
and 4,487,060 common shares and an aggregate cash payment of $3,270 and $2,427 plus accrued and unpaid interest, 
respectively. The Company recognized aggregate debt satisfaction charges of $13,536 and $7,842, during 2013 and 2012, 
respectively, relating to the conversions. 

In 2013, the Company obtained the release of all guarantees, other than the Company's operating partnership, under the 
indentures for the Senior Notes and the 6.00% Convertible Guaranteed Notes, the term loan agreements and the unsecured 
revolving credit facility.

During 2007, the Company issued an aggregate $450,000 of 5.45% Exchangeable Guaranteed Notes due in 2027. During 
2012, the Company repurchased and retired all remaining outstanding original principal amount of the notes for a cash 
payment of $62,150. This resulted in debt satisfaction charges, net of $44.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives. The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business 
operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and 
operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including 
interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the type, amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and 
the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage 
exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, 
the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company's derivative financial instruments are used to manage 
differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company's known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected 
cash payments principally related to the Company's investments and borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk. The Company's objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to 
interest expense, to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and therefore manage its cash outflows as it relates to 
the underlying debt instruments. To accomplish these objectives the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of 
its interest rate risk management strategy relating to certain of its variable rate debt instruments. Interest rate swaps designated 
as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making 
fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded 
in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the 
hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is 
recognized directly in earnings.

The Company has designated the interest rate swap agreements with its counterparties as cash flow hedges of the risk of 
variability attributable to changes in the LIBOR swap rates on $406,000 of LIBOR-indexed variable-rate secured term 
loans. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified 
to earnings as interest becomes receivable or payable. In 2012, the Company settled the 2008 interest rate swap agreement 
with KeyBank for $3,539. The Company had a credit balance of $1,837 in accumulated other comprehensive income at the 
settlement date which was amortized into earnings on a straight-line basis through February 2013.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest 
expense as interest payments are made on the aggregate $406,000 term loans. During the next 12 months, the Company 
estimates that an additional $4,344 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense if the swaps remain outstanding.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash 
flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. During 
2008, the Company entered into a forward purchase equity commitment with a financial institution to finance the repurchase 
of 3,500,000 common shares of the Company at $5.60 per share under the Company's common share repurchase plan as 
approved by the Company's Board of Trustees. The Company recognized earnings during 2011 of $2,030, primarily relating 
to the increase in the fair value of the common shares held as collateral. The Company settled this commitment in October 
2011 through a cash payment of $4,024 and retired 3,974,645 common shares.

The Company's agreements with the swap derivative counterparties contain provisions whereby if the Company defaults 
on the underlying indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the 
lender, then the Company could also be declared in default of the swap derivative obligation. As of December 31, 2013, 
the Company had not posted any collateral related to the agreements.

The  above  minimum  lease  payments  do  not  include  reimbursements  to  be  received  from  tenants  for  certain  operating 
expenses and real estate taxes and do not include early termination payments provided for in certain leases.

Certain leases allow for the tenant to terminate the lease if the property is deemed obsolete, as defined, and upon payment 
of a termination fee to the landlord, as stipulated in the lease. In addition, certain leases provide the tenant with the right to 
purchase the leased property at fair market value or a stipulated price.

Lessee:

The Company holds, through property owner subsidiaries, leasehold interests in various properties. Generally, the ground 
rents on these properties are either paid directly by the tenants to the fee holder or reimbursed to the Company as additional 
rent. Certain properties are economically owned through the holding of industrial revenue bonds and as such neither ground 
lease payments nor bond debt service payments are made or received, respectively. For certain of these properties, the 
Company has an option to purchase the fee interest.

Minimum future rental payments under non-cancelable leasehold interests, excluding leases held through industrial revenue 
bonds and lease payments in the future that are based upon fair market value, for the next five years and thereafter are as 
follows:

Rent expense for the leasehold interests, including discontinued operations, was $1,284, $1,198 and $776 in 2013, 2012 
and 2011, respectively.

The Company leases its corporate headquarters. The lease expires December 2015, with fixed rent of $1,153 per annum. 
The Company is also responsible for its proportionate share of operating expenses and real estate taxes above a base year. 
As an incentive to enter the lease, the Company received a payment of $845 which it is amortizing as a reduction of rent 
expense. In addition, the Company leases office space for its regional offices. The minimum lease payments for the Company's 
regional offices are $66 for 2014, $55 for 2015 and 2016 and $14 for 2017. Rent expense for 2013, 2012 and 2011 was 
$1,338, $1,029 and $1,392, respectively.

(14) 

Concentration of Risk

The Company seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through the geographic diversification of its properties, tenant 
industry diversification, avoidance of dependency on a single asset and the creditworthiness of its tenants. For the years 
ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, no single tenant represented greater than 10% of rental revenues.

Cash and cash equivalent balances at certain institutions may exceed insurable amounts. The Company believes it mitigates 
this risk by investing in or through major financial institutions.

Equity

Shareholders' Equity:

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued 36,012,313, 18,289,557 and 11,109,760 common shares, respectively, 
through public offerings and under its direct share purchase plan, raising net proceeds of approximately $399,566, $164,429 
and $98,953 respectively. During 2013, the Company implemented an At-The-Market offering program under which the 
Company may issue up to $100,000 in common shares over the term of this program. The Company issued 3,409,927 
common shares under this program during 2013 and generated aggregate gross proceeds of $36,884. The proceeds from 
these issuances were primarily used for general working capital, to fund investments and retire indebtedness.

89



($000, except share/unit data)

The Company had 1,935,400 shares of Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred”), outstanding 
at December 31, 2013. The shares have a dividend of $3.25 per share per annum, have a liquidation preference of $96,770, 
and the Company, if certain common share prices are achieved, can force conversion into common shares of the Company. 
As of the date of filing this Annual Report, each share is currently convertible into 2.4339 common shares. This conversion 
ratio may increase over time if the Company's common share dividend exceeds certain quarterly thresholds.

If certain fundamental changes occur, holders may require the Company, in certain circumstances, to repurchase all or part 
of their shares of Series C Preferred. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes, the Company will, 
under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional common shares or, in lieu thereof, may 
in certain circumstances elect to adjust the conversion rate upon the shares of Series C Preferred becoming convertible into 
shares of the public acquiring or surviving company.

The Company may, at the Company's option, cause shares of Series C Preferred to be automatically converted into that 
number of common shares that are issuable at the then prevailing conversion rate. The Company may exercise its conversion 
right only if, at certain times, the closing price of the Company's common shares equals or exceeds 125% of the then 
prevailing conversion price of the Series C Preferred.

Investors in shares of Series C Preferred generally have no voting rights, but will have limited voting rights if the Company 
fails to pay dividends for six or more quarters and under certain other circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company may 
choose to deliver the conversion value to investors in cash, common shares, or a combination of cash and common shares.

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued 1,893,409, 643,450 and 609,182 of its common shares, respectively, to 
certain  employees  and  trustees. Typically,  trustee  share  grants  vest  immediately.  Employee  share  grants  generally  vest 
ratably, on anniversaries of the grant date, however, in certain situations vesting is cliff-based after a specific number of 
years and/or subject to meeting certain performance criteria (see note 16).

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company repurchased/redeemed and retired the following shares of its preferred stock:

Noncontrolling Interests:

In  conjunction  with  several  of  the  Company's  acquisitions  in  prior  years,  sellers  were  issued  OP  units  as  a  form  of 
consideration. All OP units, other than OP units owned by the Company, are redeemable for common shares at certain times, 
at the option of the holders, and are generally not otherwise mandatorily redeemable by the Company. The OP units are 
classified as a component of permanent equity as the Company has determined that the OP units are not redeemable securities 
as  defined  by  GAAP.  Each  OP  unit  is  currently  redeemable  for  approximately  1.13  common  shares,  subject  to  future 
adjustments.

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, 202,241, 257,427 and 398,927 common shares, respectively, were issued by the Company, 
in connection with OP unit redemptions, for an aggregate value of $1,053, $1,343 and $2,187, respectively.

Prior to the effective date of the LCIF and LCIF II merger (December 30, 2013), there were approximately 3,618,000 OP 
units outstanding other than OP units owned by the Company (see note 22). All OP units receive distributions in accordance 
with their respective partnership agreements. To the extent that the Company's dividend per common share is less than the 
stated distribution per OP unit per the applicable partnership agreement, the distributions per OP unit are reduced by the 
percentage reduction in the Company's dividend per common share. No OP units have a liquidation preference.

Benefit Plans

The Company maintains an equity award plan pursuant to which qualified and non-qualified options may be issued. No 
common share options were issued in 2013, 2012 and 2011. The Company granted 1,248,501, 1,265,500 and 2,000,000 
common share options on December 31, 2010 (“2010 options”), January 8, 2010 (“2009 options”) and December 31, 2008 
(“2008 options”), respectively, at an exercise price of $7.95, $6.39 and $5.60, respectively. The 2010 options (1) vest 20% 
annually on each December 31, 2011 through 2015 and (2) terminate on the earlier of (x) six months of termination of 
service with the Company and (y) December 31, 2020. The 2009 options (1) vest 20% annually on each December 31, 2010 
through 2014 and (2) terminate on the earlier of (x) six months of termination of service with the Company and (y) December 
31, 2019. The 2008 options (1) vested 50% following a 20-day trading period where the average closing price of a common 
share of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is $8.00 or higher and vested 50% following a 20-day 
trading period where the average closing price of a common share of the Company on the NYSE is $10.00 or higher, and 
(2) terminate on the earlier of (x) termination of service with the Company or (y) December 31, 2018. As a result of the 
share dividends paid in 2009, each of the 2008 options is exchangeable for approximately 1.13 common shares at an exercise 
price of $4.97 per common share.

The Company engaged third parties to value the options as of each option's respective grant date. The third parties determined 
the value to be $2,422 and $2,771 for the 2010 options and 2009 options, respectively, using the Black-Scholes model and 
$2,480 for the 2008 options using the Monte Carlo model. The options are considered equity awards as they are settled 
through the issuance of common shares. As such, the options were valued as of the grant date and do not require subsequent 
remeasurement. There  were  several  assumptions  used  to  fair  value  the  options  including  the  expected  volatility  in  the 
Company's common share price based upon the fluctuation in the Company's historical common share price. The more 
significant assumptions underlying the determination of fair value for options granted were as follows:

Weighted-average fair value of options granted
Weighted-average risk-free interest rate
Weighted-average expected option lives (in years)
Weighted-average expected volatility
Weighted-average expected dividend yield

The Company recognizes compensation expense relating to these options over an average of 5.0 years for the 2010 options 
and 2009 options and 3.6 years for the 2008 options. The Company recognized $1,037, $1,197 and $1,384 in compensation 
expense in 2013, 2012 and 2011 respectively. The Company has unrecognized compensation costs of $1,518 relating to the 
outstanding options as of December 31, 2013. The intrinsic value of an option is the amount by which the market value of 
the underlying common share at the date the option is exercised exceeds the exercise price of the option. The total intrinsic 
value  of  options  exercised  for  the  years  ended  December 31,  2013,  2012  and  2011  were  $8,607,  $1,603  and  $2,100,

The Company has $22,426 in unrecognized compensation costs relating to the non-vested shares that will be charged to 
compensation expense over an average of approximately 4.4 years. 

The Company has established a trust for certain officers in which vested common shares granted for the benefit of the 
officers are deposited. The officers exert no control over the common shares in the trust and the common shares are available 
to the general creditors of the Company. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were 427,531 common shares in the 
trust.

The Company sponsors a 401(k) retirement savings plan covering all eligible employees. The Company makes a discretionary 
matching contribution on a portion of employee participant salaries and, based on its profitability, may make an additional 
discretionary contribution at each fiscal year end to all eligible employees. These discretionary contributions are subject to 
vesting under a schedule providing for 25% annual vesting starting with the first year of employment and 100% vesting 
after four years of employment. Approximately $298, $279 and $308 of contributions are applicable to 2013, 2012 and 
2011, respectively.

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized $7,145, $3,030 and $2,062, respectively, in expense relating to 
scheduled vesting and issuance of common share grants.

Related Party Transactions

In addition to related party transactions discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report, the Company has an indemnity obligation 
to Vornado Realty Trust, one of its significant shareholders, with respect to actions by the Company that affect Vornado 
Realty Trust's status as a REIT.

All related party acquisitions, sales and loans were approved by the independent members of the Company's Board of 
Trustees or the Audit Committee.

During 2011, the Company advanced an aggregate $20,077 to NLS entities in the form of interest bearing, non-recourse 
mortgage notes to satisfy maturing non-recourse mortgages. These advances were satisfied in full in 2011.

The Company leases certain properties to entities in which Vornado Realty Trust, a significant shareholder, has an interest. 
During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized $744, $842 and $864, respectively, in rental revenue, including 
discontinued operations, from these properties. The Company leases its corporate office from an affiliate of Vornado Realty 
Trust. Rent expense for this property was $1,225, $919 and $1,281 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

In 2012, the Company's Board of Trustees granted a waiver of the Company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to 
allow the Company to enter into a joint venture with an affiliate of its Chairman, which intends to raise capital from foreign 
investors seeking entry into the United States of America. As of the date of filing this Annual Report, no joint venture 
agreement has been entered into by the Company with the affiliate of its Chairman.

Income Taxes

The benefit (provision) for income taxes relates primarily to the taxable income of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries. 
The earnings, other than in taxable REIT subsidiaries, of the Company are not generally subject to federal income taxes at 
the Company level due to the REIT election made by the Company.

Income taxes have been provided for on the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income 
taxes are recognized for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and 
liabilities.

The Company's benefit (provision) for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 is summarized 
as follows:

Net deferred tax assets of $106 and $858 are included in other assets on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at 
December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. These net deferred tax assets relate primarily to differences in the timing of the 
recognition of income (loss) between GAAP and tax and net operating loss carry forwards.

The income tax benefit (provision) differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to 
pre-tax operating income as follows:

Federal provision at statutory tax rate (34%)

For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the “other” amount is comprised primarily of state taxes of $1,362, 
$1,042 and $917, respectively, the write-off of deferred tax liabilities (asset) of $(150), $0 and $3,535, respectively, and 
permanent differences of $1,936, $37, and $17, respectively, relating to the transfer of certain assets of the Company's 
taxable subsidiaries.

As  of  December 31,  2013,  the  Company  had  no  net  operating  loss  carry  forwards  for  income  taxes  and  $1,635  as  of

Commitments and Contingencies

In addition to the commitments and contingencies disclosed elsewhere, the Company has the following commitments and 
contingencies.

The Company is obligated under certain tenant leases, including its proportionate share for leases for non-consolidated 
entities, to fund the expansion of the underlying leased properties. The Company, under certain circumstances, may guarantee 
to tenants the completion of base building improvements and the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease 
commissions on behalf of its subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had three outstanding guarantees for (1) 
the completion of the base building improvements and the payment of a related tenant improvement allowance for an office 
property in Orlando, Florida, which the unfunded amounts were estimated to be $57, (2) the payment of a tenant improvement 
allowance  of  $234  for  a  property  in Allen,  Texas  and  (3)  the  full  payment  of  the  base  building  improvement,  tenant 
improvement allowance and lease commissions for an office property in Herndon, Virginia, which the unfunded amounts 
were estimated to be $2,077.

From time to time, the Company is directly or indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of 
business. Management believes, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that 
although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, 
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. 

Other. Four of our executive officers have employment contracts and are entitled to severance benefits upon termination 
by the Company without cause or termination by the executive officer with good reason, in each case, as defined in the 
employment contract.

Supplemental Disclosure of Statement of Cash Flow Information

_____________
(1)   All periods have been adjusted to reflect the impact of properties sold during the years ended December 31, 2013 and  2012, and properties classified 

as held for sale, which are reflected in discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The sum of the quarterly income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and per common share amounts may not equal 
the full year amounts primarily because the computations of amounts allocated to participating securities and the weighted-
average number of common shares of the Company outstanding for each quarter and the full year are made independently.
