CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this Form 10-Q of Wells Real Estate InvestmentColumbia Property Trust, II, Inc. ("Wells REIT II,Columbia Property Trust," "we," "our" or "us") other than historical facts may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We intend for all such forward-looking statements to be covered by the applicable safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in those acts. Such statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies, and prospects and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including known and unknown risks, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of our performance in future periods. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "believe," "continue," or other similar words. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date this report is filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). We make no representations or warranties (express or implied) about the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q, and we do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Any such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors and are based on a number of assumptions involving judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive, and market conditions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately. To the extent that our assumptions differ from actual conditions, our ability to accurately anticipate results expressed in such forward-looking statements, including our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations, make distributions to stockholders, and maintain the value of our real estate properties, may be significantly hindered. See Item 1A in Wells REIT II'sColumbia Property Trust's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 as well as Item 1A in Wells REIT II's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2012 for a discussion of some of the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements. The risk factors described in our Annual Report and Quarterly Report are not the only ones we face, but do represent those risks and uncertainties that we believe are material to us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also harm our business.

Fair Value Measurements
Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust estimates the fair value of its assets and liabilities (where currently required under GAAP) consistent with the provisions of Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurements ("ASC 820"). Under this standard, fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. While various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate fair value depending on the nature of the asset or liability, the accounting standard for fair value measurements and disclosures provides the following fair value technique parameters and hierarchy, depending upon availability:
Level 1 – Assets or liabilities for which the identical term is traded on an active exchange, such as publicly traded instruments or futures contracts.
Level 2 – Assets and liabilities valued based on observable market data for similar instruments.
Level 3 – Assets or liabilities for which significant valuation assumptions are not readily observable in the market. Such assets or liabilities are valued based on the best available data, some of which may be internally developed. Significant assumptions may include risk premiums that a market participant would consider.
Real Estate Assets
Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust is required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of its depreciable assets. Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust considers the period of future benefit of the asset to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments have a direct impact on net income. The estimated useful lives of its assets by class are as follows:
|
| | | |
| Buildings | | 40 years |
| Building improvements | | 5-25 years |
| Site improvements | | 15 years |
| Tenant improvements | | Shorter of economic life or lease term |
| Intangible lease assets | | Lease term |
Evaluating the Recoverability of Real Estate Assets
Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its real estate and related intangible assets, of both operating properties and properties under construction, in which Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust has an ownership interest, either directly or through investments in joint ventures, may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present that suggest that the carrying amounts of real estate assets and related intangible assets (liabilities) may not be recoverable, Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust assesses the recoverability of these assets by determining whether the respective carrying values will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their
eventual disposition. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying values, Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust adjusts the carrying value of the real estate assets and related intangible assets to the estimated fair values, pursuant to the property, plant, and equipment accounting standard for the impairment or disposal of
long-lived assets, and recognizes an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are calculated based on the following information, in order of preference, depending upon availability: (i) recently quoted market prices, (ii) market prices for comparable properties, or (iii) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated salvage value. Certain of our assets may be carried at more than an amount that could be realized in a current disposition transaction.
DuringProjections of expected future operating cash flows require that Columbia Property Trust estimates future market rental income amounts subsequent to the thirdexpiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number of years the property is held for investment, among other factors. The subjectivity of assumptions used in the future cash flow analysis, including discount rates, could result in an incorrect assessment of the property's fair value and could result in the misstatement of the carrying value of our real estate assets and related intangible assets and net income (loss).
In connection with furthering its portfolio repositioning efforts, in the first quarter of 2012, Wells REIT II has focused on refining the portfolio by marketing and negotiating the2013, Columbia Property Trust initiated a process to market for sale of a collectiongroup of nine18 assets in outlying markets. Wells REIT II hasproperties. Pursuant to the accounting policy outlined above, Columbia Property Trust evaluated the recoverability of the carrying values of these assets pursuant toeach of the accounting policy outlined aboveproperties in this group and determined that the carrying value of the 180 E 100 South120 Eagle Rock property in Salt Lake City, Utah isEast Hanover, New Jersey and the 333 & 777 Republic Drive property in Allen Park, Michigan are no longer recoverable due to shortening the changerespective expected property holding periods in disposition strategy and the shortening of the expected hold period for this asset in the third quarter of 2012.connection with these repositioning efforts. As a result, Wells REIT II hasColumbia Property Trust reduced the carrying value of the 180 E 100 South120 Eagle Rock property and the 333 & 777 Republic Drive property to reflect their respective fair value (asvalues estimated based on the relative fair value of the property's negotiated selling price to total contract price)projected discounted future cash flows and recorded a corresponding property impairment losslosses of $18.511.7 million in the third quarter of 2012.
During the third quarter of 2011, Wells REIT II evaluated the recoverability of the carrying value of the Manhattan Towers property and determined that it was not recoverable, as defined by the accounting policy outlined above. The Manhattan Towers property is located in Manhattan Beach, California and includes two office buildings, which had total occupancy of 22%. In the third quarter of 2011, upon considering the economic impact of various property disposition scenarios not previously contemplated, including the likelihood of achieving the projected returns associated with each scenario, Wells REIT II opted to transfer the Manhattan Towers property to an affiliate of the lender in full settlement of a $75.0 million nonrecourse mortgage loan through a deed in lieu of foreclosure transaction, which closed on September 6, 2011. As a result of this transaction, Wells REIT II reduced the carrying value of the Manhattan Towers property to its fair value, estimated based on the present value of estimated future property cash flows, by recognizing a property impairment loss of approximately $5.85.2 million, which is included in operating income (loss) from discontinued operationsrespectively, in the statement of operations; and recognized a gain on early extinguishment of debtfirst quarter of $13.5 million2013, which is reflected as gain on disposition of discontinued operations in the statement of operations..
The fair value measurements used in this evaluation of nonfinancial assets are considered to be Level 3 valuations within the fair value hierarchy outlined above, as there are significant unobservable inputs. Examples of inputs that were utilized in the fair value calculations include estimated holding periods, discount rates, market capitalization rates, expected lease rental rates, and potential sales prices. The table below represents the detail of the adjustments recognized for the three and nine months ended as of September 30, 2012 and 2011March 31, 2013 (in thousands) using Level 3 inputs. There were no adjustments recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Assets Held for Sale
Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust classifies assets as held for sale according to ASC 360, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets ("ASC 360"). According to ASC 360, assets are considered held for sale when the following criteria are met:
Management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the property.
The property is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such property.
An active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the property have been initiated.
The sale of the property is probable, and transfer of the property is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale, within one year.
The property is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value.
Actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn.
At such time that a property is determined to be held for sale, its carrying amount is reduced to the lower of its depreciated book value or its estimated fair value, less costs to sell, and depreciation is no longer recognized. As of DecemberMarch 31, 2011, Emerald Point and 5995 Opus Parkway were2013, none of Columbia Property Trust's properties met the criteria to be classified as held for sale at their respective depreciated book values (see Note 9.

Intangible Assets and Liabilities Arising from In-Place Leases where Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust is the Lessee
In-place ground leases where Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust is the lessee may have value associated with effective contractual rental rates that are above or below market rates at the time of execution or assumption. Such values are calculated based on the present value (using a discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place lease and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place lease at the time of execution or assumption, measured over a period equal to the remaining terms of the leases. The capitalized above-market and below-market in-place lease values are recorded as intangible lease liabilities and assets, respectively, and are amortized as an adjustment to property operating cost over the remaining term of the respective leases.

On January 10, 2012, Wells REIT II used cash on hand and proceeds from the JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility to fully repay the Highland Landmark Building mortgage note of $33.8 million at its maturity.
On February 3, 2012, Wells REIT II closed on a four-year, unsecured term loan with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the "$450 Million Term Loan"), which yielded initial gross proceeds of $375.0 million, and additional gross proceeds of $35.0 million in the second quarter and $40.0 million in the third quarter, for total outstanding borrowings of $450.0 million as of September 30, 2012. The $450 Million Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR, plus an applicable base margin; however, Wells REIT II effectively fixed the interest rate (assuming no change in its corporate credit rating) at 2.64% per annum with an interest rate swap executed contemporaneously with the loan. The $450 Million Term Loan matures on February 3, 2016 provided that certain conditions are met prior to that date. Furthermore, provided that certain additional conditions are met prior to, and at, maturity, the $450 Million Term Loan will become eligible for a one-year extension upon paying an extension fee equal to 0.15% of the outstanding balance.
As described above, the $450 Million Term Loan provided two accordion options to increase total borrowings to $450.0 million, both of which have been exercised. Contemporaneous with closing on these new borrowings, Wells REIT II effectively fixed the interest rate (assuming no change in its corporate credit rating) on each accordion option with an interest rate swap agreement, which together caused the weighted average effective borrowing rate on aggregate borrowings under the $450 Million Term Loan to decrease slightly from 2.64% per annum to 2.63% per annum. The total proceeds from the $450 Million Term Loan were used to repay temporary borrowings, and thereby create additional borrowing capacity, under the JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility. The majority of these temporary borrowings were drawn to settle mortgage loans during the second half of 2011 and during 2012. |

Operational Dependency
Wells REIT II has engaged WREAS II, WREF, and Wells Management to provide certain services that are essential to Wells REIT II, including asset management services, supervision of the property management and leasing of some properties owned by Wells REIT II, asset acquisition and disposition services, as well as other administrative responsibilities for Wells REIT II, including accounting services, stockholder communications, and investor relations. Further, WREAS II has engaged Wells Capital to retain the use of its employees to carry out certain of the services listed above. As a result of these relationships, Wells REIT II's operations are dependent upon WREAS II, WREF, Wells Capital, and Wells Management.
WREAS II, Wells Capital, and Wells Management are owned and controlled by WREF. Historically, the operations of WREAS II, Wells Capital, and Wells Management have represented substantially all of the business of WREF. Accordingly, Wells REIT II focuses on the financial condition of WREF when assessing the financial condition of WREAS II, Wells Capital, and Wells Management. In the event that WREF were to become unable to meet its obligations as they become due, Wells REIT II might be required to find alternative service providers. Future net income generated by WREF will be largely dependent upon the amount of fees earned by WREF's subsidiaries based on, among other things, the level of investor proceeds raised and the volume of future acquisitions and dispositions of real estate assets by other WREF-sponsored real estate programs, as well as distribution income earned from equity interests in another REIT previously sponsored by Wells Capital. As of September 30, 2012, Wells REIT II has no reason to believe that WREF does not have access to adequate liquidity and capital resources, including cash flow generated |

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our accompanying consolidated financial statements (and notes thereto) and the "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" preceding Part I of this report, as well as our consolidated financial statements (and the notes thereto) and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20112012.
Overview
From 2004 through 2010, we raised approximately $5.8 billion in gross equity proceeds and, along with borrowings, invested those proceeds, net of fees, into commercial real estate consisting of high-quality, income-producing office and industrial properties leased to creditworthy entities located in major metropolitan areas throughout the United States.
Following our initial growth period, during 2011 and 2012, we have concentrated on actively managing our assets and pursuing a variety of strategic opportunities focused on enhancing the composition of our portfolio and the total return potential for the REIT. Earlier this year,In early 2012, we consummated a series of favorable debt transactions, which have allowed us to improve our secured-to-unsecured debt mix and to lower our total cost of borrowings without disrupting the laddering of our debt maturities or materially altering our aggregate borrowing levels. More recently,Later in 2012, we shifted our focus towards repositioning our portfolio to optimize our geographic market concentration. Over the past two quarters, we have focusedmade progress on refiningthis objective by disposing of nine properties situated in secondary markets for a gross selling price of $260.5 million, and recycling those sale proceeds into the acquisition of the 333 Market Street Building in San Francisco, California for $395.3 million, in December 2012; and, more recently, selling Dvintsev Business Center - Tower B in Moscow, Russia for a gross selling price of $67.5 million in March 2013. We are continuing to advance our portfolio by marketingrepositioning efforts in 2013. Recently, we initiated a process to market for sale a group of 18 additional properties with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $530 million, the disposition of which would further enhance our concentration in strategic geographical markets and negotiatingstrengthen the sale of a collection of nineunderlying real estate fundamentals of our assets in outlying markets. As a result of changing our disposition strategy and shortening our anticipated holding period for these assets, we recorded an impairment loss of $18.5 million on the 180 E 100 South property located in Salt Lake City, Utah in the third quarter of 2012.portfolio.
During 2012, inIn connection with preparing the REIT for various liquidity options, we also established and carried out a plan to transition our externally advised management structureplatform to a self-managed platform as outlined instructure, which culminated on February 28, 2013, upon terminating the Transitionadvisory and property management agreements and acquiring Columbia Property Trust Advisory Services Agreement made effective July 1, 2012. The Transitionand Columbia Property Trust Services, Agreement requires WREF to transferincluding the assets and employees necessary to provideperform the services outlinedrequisite corporate and property management functions previously performed by our external advisor and property manager. We will continue to prepare for liquidity options through the remainder of 2013 by, among other things, further refining our portfolio in an effort to enhance the Advisory AgreementREIT's value potential and, consequently, its attractiveness to WREAS IIfuture investors. Our goal is to optimize the allocation between our traditional, stabilized core investments, and growth-oriented, core-plus, and value-added investments, which have an expectation for meaningful upside potential in net operating income and value over the intermediate term. We will also continue to focus on our market concentration by January 1, 2013, except as otherwise provided, and includes an option for us to acquire WREAS II during 2013 (see Note 8. Related-Party Transactions and Agreements for additional detail).building on our economic presence in key markets.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
In 20112012 and 2012,2013, we actively managed our real estate portfolio with an emphasis on leasing and re-leasing space, and pursuing and closing on strategic acquisitions and selective dispositions to better alignconcentrate our portfolio with our current investment objectives.market focus. During this period, we also enhanced our capital structure by continuing to raise net equity proceeds through our DRP, improving the composition, maturities and capacity of our debt portfolio while lowering our overall borrowing costs, accessing new sources of capital, and identifying additional sources of future capital.
In determining how and when to allocate cash resources, we initially consider the source of the cash. We use substantially all netreserve a portion of operating cash flows to fund distributions to stockholders.capital expenditures for our existing portfolio. The amount of distributions that we pay to our common stockholders is determined by our board of directors and is dependent upon a number of factors, including the funds available for distribution to common stockholders, our financial condition, our capital expenditure requirements, our expectations of future sources of liquidity, and the annual distribution requirements necessary to maintain our status as a REIT under the Code. When evaluating funds available for stockholder distributions, we consider net cash provided by operating activities, as presented in the accompanying GAAP-basis consolidated statements of cash flows, adjusted to exclude certain costs that were incurred for the purpose of generating future earnings and appreciation in value over the long term, including acquisition fees and expenses. We use DRP proceeds to fund share redemptions (subject to the limitations of our share redemption program), and make residual DRP proceeds available to fund capital improvements for our existing portfolio, additional real estate investments, and other cash needs.
Short-term Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, we generated net cash flows from operating activities of $195.648.5 million, which consists primarily of receipts from tenants for rent and reimbursements, reduced by payments for operating costs, administrative expenses, and interest expense. During the same period, we paid total distributions to stockholders of $204.151.6 million, which includes $94.422.9 million reinvested in our common stock pursuant to our DRP. In the event that distributions exceed current-period and prior-period accumulated operating cash flow, borrowings are used to pay stockholder distributions. We expect to use the majority of our future net cash flow from operating activities to fund distributions to stockholders.stockholders and capital improvements to our existing assets.
During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, we sold the 5995 Opus Parkway building and the Emerald Point buildingDvintsev Business Center - Tower B for net proceeds of $57.765.9 million and generated net proceeds from the sale of common stock under our DRP of $94.422.9 million. We used these proceeds, along with cash on hand, to fund share redemptions of $69.940.9 million, capital expenditures of $56.612.1 million, and net debt repayments of $4.617.6 million.
We believe that we have adequate liquidity and capital resources to meet our current obligations as they come due. As of October 31,April 30, 2012, we had access to the borrowing capacity under the JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility of $430.0$468.0 million.
Long-term Liquidity and Capital Resources
Over the long term, we expect that our primary sources of capital will include operating cash flows, proceeds from our DRP, proceeds from secured or unsecured borrowings from third-party lenders, and, if and when deemed appropriate, proceeds from strategic property sales. We expect that our primary uses of capital will continue to include stockholder distributions; redemptions of shares of our common stock under our share redemption program; capital expenditures, such as building improvements, tenant improvements, and leasing costs; repaying or refinancing debt; and selective property acquisitions, either directly or through investments in joint ventures.
On February 3, 2012, we closed on the $450 Million Term Loan, a four-year, unsecured term loan with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., which yielded initial gross proceeds of $375.0 million and additional gross proceeds of $40.0 million in the second quarter and $35.0 million in the third quarter, for total outstanding borrowings of $450.0 million as of September 30, 2012. The $450 Million Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR, plus an applicable base margin; however, we effectively fixed the interest rate on the initial borrowing (assuming no change in our corporate credit rating) at 2.64% per annum with an interest rate swap executed contemporaneously with the loan. The $450 Million Term Loan matures on February 3, 2016, provided that certain conditions are met prior to that date. Furthermore, provided that certain additional conditions are met prior to, and at maturity, the $450 Million Term Loan shall become eligible for a one-year extension upon paying an extension fee equal to 0.15% of the outstanding balance.
As described above, the $450 Million Term Loan provided two accordion options to increase total borrowings to a maximum of $450.0 million, both of which have been exercised. Contemporaneous with closing on these new borrowings, we effectively fixed the interest rate (assuming no change in our corporate credit rating) on each accordion option with an interest rate swap agreement, which together caused the weighted-average effective borrowing rate on aggregate borrowings under the $450 Million Term loan to decrease slightly from 2.64% per annum to 2.63% per annum. The total proceeds from the $450 Million Term Loan were used to repay temporary borrowings, and thereby create additional borrowing capacity, under the JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility. The majority of these temporary borrowings were drawn to settle mortgage loans during the second half of 2011 and during 2012.
Consistent with our financing objectives and operational strategy, we continue to maintain low debt levels, over the long term, historically less than 40% of the cost of our assets. This conservative leverage goal could reduce the amount of current income we can generate for our stockholders, but it also reduces their risk of loss. We believe that preserving investor capital while generating stable current income is in the best interest of our stockholders. Our debt-to-real-estate-asset ratio is calculated using the outstanding debt balance and real estate at cost. As of September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, our debt-to-real-estate-asset ratio was approximately 25.9%28.7%.
For the first three quarters of 2012, quarterly stockholder distributions were declared and paid at $0.125 per share, consistent with the rate paid throughout 2011. In the fourth quarter of 2012, our board of directors has elected to reduce the quarterly stockholder distribution rate from the third quarter 2012 rate of $0.125 per share to $0.095 per share. Economic downturns in certain of our geographic marketmarkets and in certain industries in which our tenants operate have impacted our recent leasing activities and caused our current and future operating cash flows to experience some deterioration. We are continuing to carefully monitorDuring 2012, we renewed leases for 9.2% of our cash flows and market conditions and to assess their impactportfolio, based on our future earnings and future distribution decisions.square footage, which resulted in tenant concessions of $49.7 million. Furthermore, in preparing for various liquidity options, our board has also decided to adjust our dividenddistribution payment policy to reserve additional operating cash flow to fund capital expenditures for our existing portfolio and to provide additional financial flexibility as we begin to shape our portfolio through the strategic sale and redeployment of capital proceeds in furtherance of our investment objectives, which include concentrating our market focus.
Our board of directors elected to maintain the distribution rate of $0.095 for the first and second quarters of 2013. We are continuing to monitor our cash flows and market conditions and to assess their impact on our future earnings and future distribution decisions.

Results of Operations
Overview
As of September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, we owned controlling interests in 6960 office properties, which were approximately 91.7%93.3% leased, and one hotel. Our real estate operating results have remained relatively stabledecreased for the three and ninethree months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, as compared to the same periods in 20112012., primarily due to fees payable to WREF incurred in the first quarter of 2013, included in general and administrative expense in our accompanying statement of operations. In the near term, absent future acquisitions or dispositions, we expect future real estate operating income to fluctuate primarily based on acquisitions, dispositions, and leasing activities for our current portfolio.
Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013 versus the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012
Rental income was $116.4115.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, which represents a slight decreasean increase as compared to $120.1110.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012., primarily due to the acquisition of the 333 Market Street Building in
December 2012, partially offset by the impact of 2012 leasing activities. Absent changes to our portfolio or the leases currently in place at our properties, future rental income is expected to remain at similar levels in future periods.
Tenant reimbursements remained relatively stable at $27.325.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, as compared to $27.025.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012. Property operating costs, werehowever, increased to $47.543.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, which represents an increase as compared to $44.841.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012, primarily due to the commencement of new leases and increases in property taxes, resulting from annual reassessments.reassessments, and ice and snow removal costs. Tenant reimbursements of the additional 2013 property operating costs were neutralized by the impact of concessions offered with new and modified leases. Absent changes to our portfolio, orover the leases currently in place at our properties, futurenear term, tenant reimbursements and property operating costs are expected to fluctuate in a similar manner based primarily on leasing activities for our current portfolio.activities.
Hotel income, net of hotel operating costs, was $1.80.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, which represents an increase as compared to $1.30.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012, primarily due to increased room ratesfood and hotel occupancy.beverage sales. Hotel income and hotel operating costs are primarily driven by the local economic conditions and, as a result, are expected to fluctuate in the future primarily based on changes in the supply of, and demand for, hotel and banquet space in Cleveland, Ohio, similar to that offered by the Key Center Marriott hotel.
Other property income was $4.10.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, which represents an increasea decrease as compared to $3.71.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012, primarily due to fees earned in connection with additional lease terminations in the thirdfirst quarter of 2012, offset by lease terminations in the third quarter of 2011.2012. Future other property income fluctuations are expected to primarily relate to future lease restructuring and termination activities.
Asset and property management fees were $9.86.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, which represents a slight decrease as compared to $10.29.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012, primarily due to the $83,333 in monthly savings provided for underterminating the Advisory Agreement effective July 1, 2012. Pursuant to the limitations outlinedFebruary 28, 2013 as further discussed in the Advisory Agreement, monthlyNote 8, Related-Party Transactions and Agreements. Thus, going forward, no related-party asset management fees have been capped at $2.7 million (or $32.5 million annualized) since April 2011 following the March 2011 acquisitionwill be incurred, as such services will be performed by employees of the Market Square Buildings for $603.4 million, adjusted for monthly savings of $83,333 beginning in July 2012 (see Note 8. Related Party Transactions and Agreements). Future asset and property management fees are expected to fluctuate based on disposition and acquisition activity.Columbia Property Trust.
Depreciation remained stable atwas $30.430.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013 and, which represents an increase as compared to $30.127.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012., primarily due to the acquisition of the 333 Market Street building in December 2012. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, dispositions, and changes to the leases currently in place at our properties, depreciation is expected to continue to increase in future periods, as compared to historical periods, due to ongoing capital improvements to our properties.
Amortization was $24.621.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, which represents a decrease as compared to $29.425.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012, primarily due to the expiration of in-place leases at several of our properties in 2012 and 2013, partially offset by amortizationthe acquisition of deferred leasing costs incurred333 Market Street in connection with the leases executed during the second half of 2011 and the first three quarters of 2012 (approximately 3.3 million square feet).December 2012. Future amortization is expected to fluctuate, primarily based on the expiration of additional in-place leases, offset by amortization of deferred lease costs incurred in connection with recent leasing activity.activity and in-place leases at acquired properties.
We recognized an impairment loss on real estate assets of $18.516.9 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 20122013 to reduce the carrying valuevalues of the 180 E 100 South property120 Eagle Rock and 333 & 777 Republic Drive properties to itstheir estimated fair valuevalues in connection with refining our disposition strategy for this assetthese assets as parta result of initiating a strategicprocess to market for sale a group of a collection of nine assets situated in outlying markets.18 properties. We expect future impairment losses on real estate assets to be dependent upon the nature and timing of future disposition activities.
General and administrative expenses were $7.036.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, which represents an increase as compared to $6.14.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012, primarily due to the contractual impact of transitioning to a self-managed platform (see Note 8, Related-Party Transactions and Agreements for details). As a result, for the first quarter of 2013, general and administrative expenses include all of the fees incurredpayable under the Consulting Service Agreement and the Transition Services Agreement, effective July 1, 2012 (see Note 8. Related-Party Transactions and Agreements for additional detail), partially offset by litigation expenses incurred in lease-related litigationas amended, during the third quarter of 2011.2013. General and administrative expenses are expected to remain at a level comparable to current general and administrative expenses overdecrease in the near term.
No acquisitionterm as we do not expect to incur additional fees were incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $29,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 related to the acquisition of the Market Square Buildings earlier that year. We expect future acquisition fees and expenses to fluctuate based on future acquisition activity.under either agreement going forward.
Interest expense was $27.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, which represents a slight decreaseincrease as compared to $28.726.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012, primarily due to the 333 Market Street Building mortgage note assumed at acquisition in December 2012, partially offset by lowering our weighted averageweighted-average cost of borrowing upon executing the $450 Million Term Loan.

Interest and other income remained stable atwas $9.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, which represents a slight decrease as compared to $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2012, as compareddue to $10.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011.settlement of the development authority bonds and the related obligation under capital lease related to One Glenlake Parkway Building in December 2012. Interest income is expected to remain relatively consistentat comparable levels in future periods given thatthe near term, as the majority of this activity consists of interest income earned on investments in development authority bonds which hadwith a weighted-average remaining term of approximately 4.92.6 years as of September 30, 2012March 31, 2013., and decrease significantly over the longer term, as $466.0 million of our $586.0 million total development authority bonds mature in December 2013. Interest income earned on investments in development authority bonds is entirely offset by interest expense incurred on the corresponding capital leases.
We recognized a lossgain (loss) on interest rate swaps that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment of approximately $29,00057,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, compared to $14.8 million(76,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012. We anticipate future gains and losses on interest rate swaps that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment will fluctuate, primarily due to changes in the estimated fair value of our interest rate swaps relative to then-current market conditions. Market value adjustments to swaps that qualify for hedge accounting treatment are recorded directly to equity, and therefore do not impact net income.
Income from discontinued operations was approximately $55,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and $6.79.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2013 and $19.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. As further explained in Note 9.9, Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, properties meeting certain criterion for disposal are classified as "discontinued operations" in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. For 2011,the periods presented, discontinued operations includesinclude Dvintsev Business Center - Tower B, which closed in March 2013 for a net gain of $10.0 million; the Manhattan Towers property (transferred toNine Property Sale, which closed in December 2012 for a net gain of $3.2 million after recognizing an affiliate$18.5 million impairment loss on the 180 E 100 South Building, one of its lenderthe properties in connection with settling a $75.0 million mortgage note through a deed in lieu of foreclosure transaction in September 2011)the Nine Property Sale; and 5995 Opus Parkway and Emerald Point, which soldboth closed in January 2012 for total gains of $16.9 million in January 2012; for 2012, discontinued operations includes 5995 Opus Parkway and Emerald Point.million.
Net income (loss) attributable to Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust was $(5.9)(22.6) million, or $(0.01)(0.04) per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, which represents a decrease as compared to $5.131.1 million, or $0.010.06 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2011March 31, 2012. The decrease is primarily attributable to the impairment loss on the 180 E 100 South property in the third quarter of 2012 and nonrecurring gains in 2011 related to the disposition of the Manhattan Towers property, partially offset by a decrease in the losses incurred to mark interest rate swaps to market as compared to the prior year due to settling the swaps on the 80 Park Plaza Building and the 222 East 41st Street Building in December 2011. We expect future net income to fluctuate based on future disposition and acquisition activity and current and future leasing activity. Should the U.S. economic recovery remain sluggish, or the U.S. real estate markets remain depressed for a prolonged period of time, the creditworthiness of our tenants and our ability to achieve market rents comparable to the leases currently in place at our properties may suffer and could lead to a decline in net income over the long term.
Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2012 versus the nine months ended September 30, 2011
Rental income was $355.7incurring $28.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which represents a slight increase as compared to $354.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Absent changes to our portfolio or the leases currently in place at our properties, rental income is expected to remain at similar levels in future periods.
Tenant reimbursements remained stable at $77.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $77.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as additional reimbursements from the Market Square property are offset by fewer reimbursements for the remainder of the portfolio primarily due to concessions offered with new and modified leases executed in 2011 and 2012. Property operating costs were $135.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which represents an increase as compared to $130.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, primarily due to the acquisition of the Market Square Buildings in March 2011 and the commencement of new leases. Absent changes to our portfolio or the leases currently in place at our properties, future tenant reimbursement fluctuations are generally expected to correspond with future property operating cost reimbursements.
Hotel income, net of hotel operating costs were $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which represents a slight increase as compared to $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, due to increased room rates and hotel occupancy primarily in the second and third quarters of 2012. Hotel income and hotel operating costs are primarily driven by the local economic conditions and, as a result, are expected to fluctuate in the future primarily based on changes in the supply of, and demand for, hotel and banquet space in Cleveland, Ohio, similar to that offered by the Key Center Marriott hotel.
Other property income remained stable at $6.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Future other property income fluctuations are expected to primarily relate to future lease restructuring and termination activities.
Asset and property management fees were relatively stable at $30.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to $29.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Pursuant to the limitations outlined in the Advisory Agreement, monthly asset management fees have remained capped at $2.7 million (or $32.5 million annualized) since April 2011
following the March 2011 acquisition of the Market Square Buildings for $603.4 million. Future asset and property management fees are expected to decrease in the near term as a result the Advisory Agreement effective July 1, 2012, which provides for a monthly fee reduction of $83,333 (see Note 8. Related Party Transactions and Agreements for additional detail).
Depreciation was $90.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which represents an increase as compared to $87.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, primarily due to the Market Square Buildings acquisition in March 2011. Excluding the impact of changes to the leases currently in place at our properties, depreciation is expected to continue to increase in future periods, as compared to historical periods, due to ongoing capital improvements to our properties.
Amortization was $79.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which represents a decrease as compared to $90.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, due to the expiration of in-place leases at several of our properties, partially offset by accelerated amortization for a lease termination effected at 1950 University Circle in the second quarter of 2012, and amortization of deferred leasing costs incurred in connection with the leases executed during the second half of 2011 and the first half of 2012 (approximately 3.0 million square feet). Future amortization is expected to fluctuate primarily based on the expiration of additional in-place leases, offset by amortization of deferred lease costs incurred in connection with recent leasing activity.
We recognized an impairment loss on real estate assets of $18.5 million in the third quarter of 2012 to reduce the carrying value of the 180 E 100 South property to its estimated fair value in connection with refining our disposition strategy for this asset as part of a strategic sale of a collection of nine assets situated in outlying markets. We expect future impairment losses on real estate assets to be dependent upon the nature and timing of future disposition activities.
General and administrative expenses were $18.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which represents a decrease as compared to $19.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, primarily due to bad debt expense incurred in 2011, partially offset by fees paid under the Transition Services Agreement, effective July 1, 2012 (seeas amended, and the Consulting Services Agreement, as described in Note 8.8, Related-Party Transactions and Agreements, for additional detail). General and administrative expenses are expected to remain at a level comparable to current general and administrative expenses over the near term.
No acquisition fees were incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $11.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, which relates primarily to the acquisition of the Market Square Buildings and the acquisition fees charged under the advisory agreement in place in 2011. Until July 31, 2011, acquisition fees were incurred at 2.0% of gross offering proceeds, subject to certain limitations; effective August 1, 2011, acquisition fees are incurred at 1.0% of the property purchase price (excluding acquisition expenses); however, in no event may total acquisition fees for the 2012 calendar year exceed 2.0% of total gross offering proceeds. As a result of the change, we expect future acquisition fees and expenses to fluctuate based on future acquisition activity.
Interest expense remained relatively stableat $81.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to $81.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Future interest expense will depend largely upon changes in market interest rates and our ability to secure financings or refinancings.
Interest and other income was $30.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which represents a decrease as compared to $32.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, primarily due to the settlement of litigation in 2011 related to a prospective acquisition that did not close. Interest income is expected to remain relatively consistent in future periods given that the majority of this activity consists of interest income earned on investments in development authority bonds, which had a weighted-average remaining term of approximately 4.9 years as of September 30, 2012. Interest income earned on investments in development authority bonds is entirely offset by interest expense incurred on the corresponding capital leases.
We recognized a loss on interest rate swaps that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment of approximately $118,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $22.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. We anticipate future gains and losses on interest rate swaps that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment will fluctuate, primarily due to changes in the estimated fair value of our interest rate swaps relative to then-current market conditions. Market value adjustments to swaps that qualify for hedge accounting treatment are recorded directly to equity, and therefore do not impact net income.
Income from discontinued operations was $16.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. As further explained in Note 9. Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, properties meeting certain criterion for disposal are classified as "discontinued operations"statements; and changes in disposition activity between the periods presented. We expect earnings to improve due to the nonrecurring transition services and consulting fees incurred in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. For 2011, discontinued operations includes the Manhattan Towers property (transferred to an affiliate of its lender in connection with settling
a $75.0 million mortgage note through a deed in lieu of foreclosure transaction in September 2011) and 5995 Opus Parkway and Emerald Point, which sold for total gains of $16.9 million in January 2012; for 2012, discontinued operations includes 5995 Opus Parkway and Emerald Point.
Net income attributable to Wells REIT II was $36.2 million, or $0.07 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which represents an increase from $3.0 million, or $0.01 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase is primarily attributable to a decrease in the losses incurred to mark interest rate swaps to market as compared to the prior year (due to settling the swaps on the 80 Park Plaza Building and the 222 East 41st Street Building in December 2011), nonrecurring gains from the sale of 5995 Opus Parkway and Emerald Point in January 2012, and nonrecurring acquisition fees in connection with acquiring the Market Square Buildings in March 2011, partially offset by incurring an impairment loss on the 180 E 100 South property in the thirdfirst quarter of 2012. We expect future net income to fluctuate based on future disposition and acquisition activity and current and future leasing activity.2013. Should the U.S. economic recovery remain sluggish, or the U.S. real estate markets remain depressed for a prolonged period of time, the creditworthiness of our tenants and our ability to achieve market rents comparable to the leases currently in place at our properties may suffer and could lead to a decline in net income over the long term.
Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations
Funds from Operations ("FFO"), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), is a non-GAAP financial measure considered by some equity REITs in evaluating operating performance. FFO is computed as GAAP net income (loss) regardless of classification as continuing or discontinuing operations, adjusted to exclude: extraordinary items, gains (or losses) from property sales (including deemed sales and settlements of pre-existing relationships), depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, impairment losses related to sales of real estate assets, and adjustments for earnings allocated to noncontrolling interests in consolidated partnerships. Effective December 31, 2011, we adjusted our calculation of FFO to be consistent with NAREIT's recent Accounting and Financial Standards Hot Topics, which clarifies that impairment losses on real estate assets should be excluded from FFO. We believe it is useful to consider GAAP net income, adjusted to exclude the above-mentioned items, when assessing our performance because excluding the above-described adjustments highlights the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which may not be readily apparent from GAAP net income alone. We do not, however, believe that FFO is the best measure of the sustainability of our operating performance. Changes in the GAAP accounting and reporting rules that were put into effect after the establishment of NAREIT's definition of FFO in 1999 are resulting in the inclusion of a number of items in FFO that do not correlate with the sustainability of our operating performance (e.g., acquisition expenses, market value adjustments to interest rate swaps, and amortization of certain in-place lease intangible assets and liabilities, among others). Therefore, in addition to FFO, we present Adjusted Funds from Operations ("AFFO"(or "AFFO"), a non-GAAP financial measure. AFFO is calculated by adjusting FFO to exclude the income and expenses that we believe are not reflective of the sustainability of our ongoing operating performance, as further explained below:
Additional amortization of lease assets (liabilities). GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of intangible lease assets (liabilities) diminishes predictably over time and, thus, requires these charges to be recognized ratably over the respective lease terms. Such intangible lease assets (liabilities) arise from the allocation of acquisition price related to direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, the value of opportunity costs associated with lost rentals, the value of tenant relationships, and the value of effective rental rates of in-place leases that are above or below market rates of comparable leases at the time of acquisition. Like real estate values, market lease rates in aggregate have historically risen or fallen
with local market conditions. As a result, management believeswe believe that by excluding these charges, AFFO provides useful supplemental information that is reflective of the performance of our real estate investments, which is useful in assessing the sustainability of our operations.
Straight-line rental income. In accordance with GAAP, rental payments are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Thus, for any given period, straight-line rental income represents the difference between the contractual rental billings for that period and the average rental billings over the lease term for the same length of time. This application results in income recognition that can differ significantly from the current contract terms. By adjusting for this item, we believe AFFO provides useful supplemental information reflective of the realized economic impact of our leases, which is useful in assessing the sustainability of our operating performance.
Loss on interest rate swaps and remeasurement of loss on foreign currency. These items relate to fair value adjustments, which are based on the impact of current market fluctuations, underlying market conditions and the performance of the specific holding, which is not attributable to our current operating performance. By adjusting for this item, we believe that AFFO provides useful supplemental information by focusing on the changes in our core operating fundamentals (rather than anticipated gains or losses that may never be realized), which is useful in assessing the sustainability of our operations.
Noncash interest expense. This item represents amortization of financing costs paid in connection with executing our debt instruments, and the accretion of premiums (and amortization of discounts) on certain of our debt instruments. GAAP requires these items to be recognized over the remaining term of the respective debt instrument, which may not correlate with the ongoing operations of our real estate portfolio. By excluding these items, management believeswe believe that AFFO provides supplemental information that allows for better comparability of reporting periods, which is useful in assessing the sustainability of our operations.
Real estate acquisition-related costs. Acquisition expenses are incurred for investment purposes (i.e., to promote portfolio appreciation and generation of future earnings over the long term) and, therefore, do not correlate with the ongoing operations of our portfolio. By excluding these items, management believeswe believe that AFFO provides supplemental information that allows for better comparability of reporting periods, which is useful in assessing the sustainability of our operations.
Gains on early extinguishment of debt. This item represents gains resulting from debt settled prior to the stated maturity date, which do not correlate with our ongoing operating performance. By adjusting for this item, we believe that AFFO provides better comparability of reporting periods, which is useful in assessing the sustainability of our operations.

The decrease in AFFO is primarily attributable to incurring $28.6 million of nonrecurring fees under the Consulting Agreement and the Transition Services Agreement, as amended, in the first quarter of 2013, and the near-term impact of lease restructuring activities.
Election as a REIT
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, and have operated as such beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2003. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a
requirement to distribute at least 90% of our adjusted taxable income, as defined in the Code, to our stockholders, computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and by excluding our net capital gain. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will then be subject to federal income taxes on our taxable income for that year and for the four years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless the Internal Revenue Service grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to our stockholders. However, we believe that we are organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.
Columbia Property Trust TRS, Columbia KCP TRS, and Wells Energy TRS Entities are wholly owned subsidiaries of Wells REIT IIColumbia Property Trust and are organized as Delaware limited liability companies and include the operations of, among other things, a full-service hotel. We have elected to treat Wellsthe TRS Entities as taxable REIT subsidiaries. We may perform certain additional, noncustomary services for tenants of our buildings through the Wellsthe TRS Entities; however, any earnings related to such services are subject to federal and state income taxes. In addition, for us to continue to qualify as a REIT, we must limit our investments in taxable REIT subsidiaries to 25% of the value of our total assets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at the enacted rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse.
No provisions for federal income taxes have been made in our accompanying consolidated financial statements, other than the provisions relating to WellsColumbia Property Trust TRS, Columbia KCP TRS, and Wells KCPEnergy TRS, as we made distributions in excess of taxable income for the periods presented. We are subject to certain state and local taxes related to property operations in certain locations, which have been provided for in our accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Inflation
We are exposed to inflation risk, as income from long-term leases is the primary source of our cash flows from operations. There are provisions in the majority of our tenant leases that are intended to protect us from, and mitigate the risk of, the impact of inflation. These provisions include rent steps, reimbursement billings for operating expense pass-through charges, real estate tax and insurance reimbursements on a per-square-foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses above a certain per-square-foot allowance. However, due to the long-term nature of the leases, the leases may not reset frequently enough to fully cover inflation.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
Our accounting policies have been established to conform with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.
Investment in Real Estate Assets
We are required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of our depreciable assets. We consider the period of future benefit of the asset to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments have a direct impact on net income. The estimated useful lives of our assets by class are as follows:
|
| | | |
| Buildings | | 40 years |
| Building improvements | | 5-25 years |
| Site improvements | | 15 years |
| Tenant improvements | | Shorter of economic life or lease term |
| Intangible lease assets | | Lease term |
Evaluating the Recoverability of Real Estate Assets
We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate and related intangible assets of both operating properties and properties under construction, in which we have an ownership interest, either directly or through investments in joint ventures, may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present that suggest that the carrying amounts of real estate assets and related intangible assets (liabilities) may not be recoverable,
we assess the recoverability of these assets by determining whether the respective carrying values will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying values, we adjust the carrying value of the real estate assets and related intangible assets to the estimated fair values, pursuant to the property, plant, and equipment accounting standard for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, and recognize an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are calculated based on the following information, in order of preference, depending upon availability: (i) recently quoted market prices, (ii) market prices for comparable properties, or (iii) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated salvage value. Certain of our assets may be carried at more than an amount that could be realized in a current disposition transaction.
Projections of expected future operating cash flows require that we estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number of years the property is held for investment, among other factors. The subjectivity of assumptions used in the future cash flow analysis, including discount rates, could result in an incorrect assessment of the property's fair value and could result in the misstatement of the carrying value of our real estate assets and related intangible assets and net income (loss).
DuringIn connection with furthering our portfolio repositioning efforts, in the thirdfirst quarter of 2012,2013, we have focused on improving ourbegan to market concentration by assembling, marketing, and negotiatingfor sale a group of 18 properties. Pursuant to the sale of a collection of nine assets in outlying markets. We haveaccounting policy outlined above, we evaluated the recoverability of the carrying values of these assets pursuant toeach of the accounting policy outlined aboveproperties in this group and determined that the carrying value of the 180 E 100 South120 Eagle Rock property in Salt Lake City, Utah isEast Hanover, New Jersey and the 333 & 777 Republic Drive property in Allen Park, Michigan are no longer recoverable due to refining our disposition strategy and shortening ourthe respective expected property holding period for this assetperiods in the third quarter of 2012.connection with these repositioning efforts. As a result, we have reduced the carrying value of the 180 E 100 South property to reflect fair value (as estimated based on the relative fair value of the property's negotiated selling price to total contract price) and recorded a corresponding property impairment loss of $18.5 million in the third quarter of 2012.
During the third quarter of 2011, we evaluated the recoverability of the carrying value of the Manhattan Towers property and determined that it was not recoverable, as defined by the accounting policy outlined above. The Manhattan Towers property is located in Manhattan Beach, California, and includes two office buildings with total occupancy of 22%. In the third quarter of 2011, upon considering the economic impact of various property disposition scenarios not previously contemplated, including the likelihood of achieving the projected returns associated with each scenario, we opted to transfer the Manhattan Towers property to an affiliate of the lender in full settlement of a $75.0 million nonrecourse mortgage loan through a deed in lieu of foreclosure transaction, which closed on September 6, 2011. As a result of this transaction, we reduced the carrying value of the Manhattan Towers120 Eagle Rock property and the 333 & 777 Republic Drive property to itsreflect their respective fair value,values estimated based on the present value of estimatedprojected discounted future property cash flows by recognizing aand recorded corresponding property impairment losslosses of approximately $5.811.7 million and $5.2 million, which is included in operating income (loss) from discontinued operationsrespectively, in the statement of operations; and recognized a gain on early extinguishment of debtfirst quarter of $13.5 million2013, which is reflected as gain on disposition of discontinued operations in the statement of operations..
The fair value measurements used in this evaluation of nonfinancial assets are considered to be Level 3 valuations within the fair value hierarchy outlined above, as there are significant unobservable inputs. Examples of inputs that were utilized in the fair value calculations include estimated holding periods, discount rates, market capitalization rates, expected lease rental rates, and potential sales prices. The table below represents the detail of the adjustments recognized for the three and nine months ended as of September 30, 2012 and 2011March 31, 2013 (in thousands) using Level 3 inputs. There were no adjustments recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Assets Held for Sale
We classify assets as held for sale according to ASC 360, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets ("ASC 360"). According to ASC 360, assets are considered held for sale when the following criteria are met:
Management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the property.
The property is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such property.
An active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the property have been initiated.
The sale of the property is probable, and transfer of the property is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale, within one year.
The property is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value.
Actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn.
At such time that a property is determined to be held for sale, its carrying amount is reduced to the lower of its depreciated book value or its estimated fair value, less costs to sell, and depreciation is no longer recognized. As of March 31, 2013, none of our properties met the criteria to be classified as held for sale in the accompanying balance sheet.
Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Assets
Upon the acquisition of real properties, we allocate the purchase price of properties to tangible assets, consisting of land and building, site improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, including the value of in-place leases, based in each case on our estimate of their fair values.
The fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and building) are determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the "as-if-vacant" value is then allocated to land and building based on our determination of the relative fair value of these assets. We determine the as-if-vacant fair value of a property using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors we consider 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, including leasing commissions and
other related costs. In estimating carrying costs, we include real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand.
Intangible Assets and Liabilities Arising from In-Place Leases where We are the Lessor
As further described below, in-place leases where we are the lessor may have values related to direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, opportunity costs associated with lost rentals that are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease, tenant relationships, and effective contractual rental rates that are above or below market rates:
Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, including commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs, are estimated based on management's consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. Such direct costs are included in intangible lease origination costs in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
The value of opportunity costs associated with lost rentals avoided by acquiring an in-place lease is calculated based on the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. Such opportunity costs are included in intangible lease assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
The value of tenant relationships is calculated based on expected renewal of a lease or the likelihood of obtaining a particular tenant for other locations. Values associated with tenant relationships are included in intangible lease assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
The value of effective rental rates of in-place leases that are above or below the market rates of comparable leases is calculated based on the present value (using a discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be received pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining terms of the leases. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values are recorded as intangible lease assets or liabilities and amortized as an adjustment to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
Evaluating the Recoverability of Intangible Assets and Liabilities
The values of intangible lease assets and liabilities are determined based on assumptions made at the time of acquisition and have defined useful lives, which correspond with the lease terms. There may be instances in which intangible lease assets and liabilities become impaired and we are required to write-off the remaining asset or liability immediately or over a shorter period of time. Lease restructurings, including lease terminations and lease extensions, may impact the value and useful life of in-place leases. In-place leases that are terminated, partially terminated, or modified will be evaluated for impairment if the original in-place lease terms have been modified. In the event that the discounted cash flows of the original in-place lease stream do not exceed the discounted modified in-place lease stream, we adjust the carrying value of the intangible lease assets to the discounted cash flows and recognize an impairment loss. For in-place lease extensions that are executed more than one year prior to the original in-place lease expiration date, the useful life of the in-place lease will be extended over the new lease term with the exception of those in-place lease components, such as lease commissions and tenant allowances, which have been renegotiated for the extended term. Renegotiated in-place lease components, such as lease commissions and tenant allowances, will be amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the new lease term.
Intangible Assets and Liabilities Arising from In-Place Leases where We are the Lessee
In-place ground leases where we are the lessee may have value associated with effective contractual rental rates that are above or below market rates. Such values are calculated based on the present value (using a discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place lease and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining terms of the leases. The capitalized above-market and below-market in-place lease values are recorded as intangible lease liabilities or assets and amortized as an adjustment to property operating cost over the remaining term of the respective leases.

Assertion of Legal Action Against Related-Parties
On March 12, 2007, a stockholder of Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont REIT") filed a putative class action and derivative complaint, presently styled In re Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. Securities Litigation, in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland against, among others, Piedmont REIT; Leo F. Wells, III, the Chairman of our Board of Directors; Wells Capital; Wells Management; certain affiliates of WREF; the directors of Piedmont REIT; and certain individuals who formerly served as officers or directors of Piedmont REIT prior to the closing of the internalization transaction on April 16, 2007.
The complaint alleged, among other things, violations of the federal proxy rules and breaches of fiduciary duty arising from the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction and the related proxy statement filed with the SEC on February 26, 2007, as amended. The complaint sought, among other things, unspecified monetary damages and nullification of the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction.
On June 27, 2007, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint, which attempted to assert class action claims on behalf of those persons who received and were entitled to vote on the Piedmont REIT proxy statement filed with the SEC on February 26, 2007, and derivative claims on behalf of Piedmont REIT.
On March 31, 2008, the Court granted in part the defendants' motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The Court dismissed five of the seven counts of the amended complaint in their entirety. The Court dismissed the remaining two counts with the exception of allegations regarding the failure to disclose in the Piedmont REIT proxy statement details of certain expressions of interest in acquiring Piedmont REIT. On April 21, 2008, the plaintiff filed a second amended complaint, which alleges violations of the federal proxy rules based upon allegations that the proxy statement to obtain approval for the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction omitted details of certain expressions of interest in acquiring Piedmont REIT. The second amended complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified monetary damages, to nullify and rescind the internalization transaction, and to cancel and rescind any stock issued to the defendants as consideration for the internalization transaction. On May 12, 2008, the defendants answered and raised certain defenses to the second amended complaint. Since the filing of the second amended complaint, the plaintiff has said it intends to seek monetary damages of approximately $159 million plus prejudgment interest.
On June 23, 2008, the plaintiff filed a motion for class certification. On September 16, 2009, the Court granted the plaintiff's motion for class certification. On September 20, 2009, the defendants filed a petition for permission to appeal immediately the Court's order granting the motion for class certification with the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals. The petition for permission to appeal was denied on October 30, 2009.
On April 13, 2009, the plaintiff moved for leave to amend the second amended complaint to add additional defendants. The Court denied the plaintiff's motion for leave to amend on June 23, 2009.
On December 4, 2009, the parties filed motions for summary judgment. On August 2, 2010, the Court entered an order denying the defendants' motion for summary judgment and granting, in part, the plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment. The Court ruled that the question of whether certain expressions of interest in acquiring Piedmont REIT constituted "material" information required to be disclosed in the proxy statement to obtain approval for the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction raises questions of fact that must be determined at trial.
On November 17, 2011, the court issued rulings granting several of the plaintiff's motions in limine to prohibit the defendants from introducing certain evidence, including evidence of the defendants' reliance on advice from their outside legal and financial advisors, and limiting the defendants' ability to relate their subjective views, considerations, and observations during the trial of the case. On February 23, 2012, the Court granted several of the defendants' motions, including a motion for reconsideration regarding a motion the plaintiff had filed seeking exclusion of certain evidence impacting damages, and motions seeking exclusion of certain evidence proposed to be submitted by the plaintiff.
On March 20, 2012, the Court granted the defendants leave to file a motion for summary judgment. On April 5, 2012, the defendants filed a motion for summary judgment. On September 26, 2012, the Court granted the defendants' motion for summary judgment and entered judgment in favor of the defendants. On October 12, 2012, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal with the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals.
On October 22, 2012 Piedmont REIT announced that the parties reached agreement in principle to settle the lawsuit on October 12, 2012. Under the terms of the proposed settlement, the plaintiff will dismiss the appeal and release all defendants from liability in exchange for total payment of $4.9 million in cash by Piedmont REIT and its insurer. The settlement, which is subject to court approval following the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements and notice to the class, will resolve the appeal and result in the final disposition of the case.
Mr. Wells, Wells Capital, and Wells Management believe that the allegations contained in the complaint are without merit and intend to continue to vigorously defend this action if for any reason the settlement is not approved. Although WREF believes that it has meritorious defenses to the claims of liability and damages in these actions, WREF is unable at this time to predict the outcome of the appeal of this action or, if reinstated, reasonably estimate a range of damages, or how any liability and responsibility for damages might be allocated among the 17 defendants in the action, which includes 11 defendants not affiliated with Mr. Wells, Wells Capital, or Wells Management. The ultimate resolution of this matter could have a material adverse impact on WREF's financial results, financial condition, or liquidity.

DeterminationOn May 7, 2013, our Board of Estimated Per-Share Value
Overview
On November 8, 2012, we announced an estimated per-share value of our common stock equalDirectors declared distributions to $7.33 per share, calculated as of September 30, 2012. Previously we had announced an estimated per-share value of $7.47 as of September 30, 2011. This estimate is being provided to assist broker/dealers in connection with their obligations under applicable Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") Rules with respect to customer account statements and to assist fiduciaries in discharging their obligations under Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA") reporting requirements.
Valuation Methodology
Summary:
We again engaged Altus Group U.S., Inc. ("Altus"), a third-party commercial real estate valuation firm, to appraise our assets, both real estate and other assets, to estimatestockholders for the fair value of our liabilities, and to use those estimates to calculate an estimated fair value of our shares as of September 30, 2012. The engagement of Altus was approved by the asset management committee of our board of directors, which committee is composed only of directors who are not affiliated with our advisor. Altus's analyses, opinions, and conclusions were developed in conformity with the Code of Professional Ethics and the Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice of the Appraisal Institute and in conformity with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. Altus appraised each of our real estate assets individually, and the asset management committee of our board and our advisor reviewed these analyses and conclusions.
Altus worked with our advisor and the asset management committee of our board of directors to gather information regarding our assets and liabilities. On October 29, 2012, Altus delivered a final report to our advisor, who shared the report with the asset management committee of our board of directors. At a subsequent meeting of our board of directors, our advisor presented the report and recommended an estimated per-share value. Our board of directors considered all information provided in light of its own extensive familiarity with our assets and, upon the recommendation of our asset management committee, unanimously agreed upon an estimated value of $7.33 per share, which is consistent with both the advisor's recommendation and Altus's estimate.
Our estimated per-share value of $7.33 as of September 30, 2012 reflects a decline from our previous estimated share value of $7.47 as of September 30, 2011, primarily due to changes in the leasing expectations and renewal probabilities for some of the assets in our portfolio. Proactive leasing has been a focal point of our operational strategy in 2012, and has yielded more than 2.4 million square feet of new and extended leases (approximately 10% of our portfolio) during the first nine months of the year. This activity has improved our average remaining lease term from 6.3 years to 6.7 years; however, current economic conditions in certain markets have required us to offer additional tenant incentives and, in some cases, accept space contractions as conditions
of the new lease contracts. The associated leasing capital has been, and is expected to continue to be, funded with a combination of cash and debt.
Consistent with the methodology used when we estimated our per share value as of September 30, 2011, our estimated per-share value as of September 30, 2012 was calculated by aggregating the value of our real estate and other assets, subtracting the fair value of our liabilities, and dividing the total by the number of our common shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2012. The potential dilutive effect of our common stock equivalents does not impact our estimated per-share value. Our estimated share value is the same as our net asset value. It does not reflect "enterprise value," which includes a premium for:
the large size of our portfolio, although it may be true that some buyers are willing to pay more for a large portfolio than they are willing to pay for each property in the portfolio separately;
our rights under our advisory agreement and our potential ability to secure the services of a management team on a long-term basis; or
the potential increase in our share value if we were to list our shares on a national securities exchange.
Our key objectives are to arrive at an estimated per-share value that is supported by methodologies and assumptions that are appropriate based on our current circumstances and calculated using processes and procedures that may be repeated in future periods. We believe that this approach reflects the conservative investment principles that guided the assembly of our portfolio over the past eight years, and comports with industry-standard valuation methodologies used for nontraded real estate companies. We plan to continue to update our estimated per-share value on an annual basis.
Details:
As of September 30, 2012, our estimated per-share value was calculated as follows:
|
| | | | |
Real estate assets | $ | 10.00 |
| (1) |
Debt | (2.68 | ) | (2) |
Other | 0.01 |
| (3) |
Estimated net asset value per-share value | $ | 7.33 |
| |
Estimated enterprise value premium | None assumed |
| |
Total estimated per-share value | $ | 7.33 |
| |
| |
(1)
| Our real estate assets were appraised using valuation methods that we believe are typically used by investors for properties that are similar to ours, including capitalization of the net property operating income, 10-year discounted cash flow models, and comparison with sales of similar properties. Primary emphasis was placed on the discounted cash flow analysis, with the other approaches used to confirm the reasonableness of the value conclusion. Using this methodology, the appraised value of the real estate assets we owned as of September 30, 2012 reflects an overall decline of 8.6% from original purchase price, exclusive of acquisition costs, plus post-acquisition capital investments. We believe that the assumptions employed in the valuation are within the ranges used for properties that are similar to ours and held by investors with similar expectations to our investors.
|
The following are the key assumptions (shown on a weighted-average basis) that are used in the discounted cash flow models to estimate the value of our real estate assets:
|
| | |
Exit capitalization rate | 7.11 | % |
Discount rate/internal rate of return ("IRR") | 8.02 | % |
Annual market rent growth rate | 3.21 | % |
Annual holding period | 10.03 years |
|
While we believe our assumptions are reasonable, a change in these assumptions would impact the calculation of the value of our real estate assets. For example, assuming all other factors remain unchanged, a change in the weighted-average annual discount rate/IRR of 0.25% would yield a change in our total real estate asset value of 1.9%.
| |
(2)
| The fair value of our debt instruments was estimated using discounted cash flow models, which incorporate assumptions that we believe reflect the terms currently available on similar borrowing arrangements to borrowers with credit profiles similar to ours. |
| |
(3)
| The fair value of our non-real estate assets and liabilities is estimated to materially reflect book value given their typically short-term (less than one year) settlement periods. |
Limitations and Risks
As with any valuation methodology, our methodology is based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete (see footnotes in above Valuation Methodology section). Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated per-share value. Accordingly, with respect to our estimated per-share value, we can provide no assurance that:
| |
▪ | a stockholder would be able to realize this estimated value per share upon attempting to resell his or her shares; |
| |
▪ | we would be able to achieve, for our stockholders, the estimated value per share, upon a listing of our shares of common stock on a national securities exchange, selling our real estate portfolio, or merging with another company; or |
| |
▪ | the estimated share value, or the methodologies relied upon to estimate the share value, will be found by any regulatory authority to comply with FINRA, ERISA, or any other regulatory requirements. |
Furthermore, the estimated value of our shares was calculated as of a particular point in time. The value of our shares will fluctuate over time in response to, among other things, changes in real estate market fundamentals, capital markets activities, and attributes specific to the properties and leases within our portfolio.
Share Redemption Program Share Price
Effective November 8, 2012, the price paid for shares redeemed under the Share Redemption Program (the "SRP") in cases of death, disability, or qualification for federal assistance for confinement to a long-term care facility (i.e. a nursing home), will change from 100% of the previously disclosed estimated-per-share value of ($7.47) to 100% of the current estimated per-share value ($7.33); and the price paid per share for all other redemptions ("Ordinary Redemptions") will remain $6.25.
Dividend Reinvestment Plan Share Price
Effective beginning in the fourthsecond quarter of 2012, the price at which investors may purchase shares under the DRP will change from 95.5% of the previous estimated per-share value (or, $7.13) to 95.5% of the current estimated per-share value (or, $7.00).
Declaration of Distributions
On November 6, 2012, our board of directors declared distributions for the fourth quarter of 20122013 in the amount of $0.095 (9.5 cents)$0.095 (9.5 cents) per share on the outstanding shares of common stock payable to stockholders of record as of DecemberJune 15, 2012, which reflects a reduction from the previous quarterly rate of $0.125 per share. The2013. Such distributions will be paid in December 2012.
Nine-Property Sale Contract
On November 6, 2012, we entered into a contract to sell nine of our assets for a gross sales price of $260.5 million, exclusive of closing costs, and targets closing on this sale in the fourth quarter of 2012.June 2013.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
As a result of our debt facilities, we are exposed to interest rate changes. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flow primarily through a low to moderate level of overall borrowings. However, we currently have a substantial amount of debt outstanding. We manage our ratio of fixed- to floating-rate debt with the objective of achieving a mix that we believe is appropriate in light of anticipated changes in interest rates. We closely monitor interest rates and will continue to consider the sources and terms of our borrowing facilities to determine whether we have appropriately guarded ourselves against the risk of increasing interest rates in future periods.
Additionally, we have entered into interest rate swaps, and may enter into other interest rate swaps, caps, or other arrangements to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. We do not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes; however, certain of our derivatives may not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. All of our debt was entered into for other-than-trading purposes.
Our financial instruments consist of both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. Our variable-rate borrowings consist of the JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility, the $450 Million Term Loan, the 333 Market Street Building mortgage note, and the Three Glenlake Building mortgage note. However, only the JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility bears interest at an effectively variable rate, as the variable rate on the $450.0 Million Term Loan, the 333 Market Street Building mortgage note, and the Three Glenlake Building mortgage note have been effectively fixed through the interest rate swap agreements described below.
As of September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, we had $65.025.0 million outstanding under the JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility; $450.0 million outstanding on the $450 Million Term Loan; $26.2$208.1 million outstanding on the 333 Market Street Building mortgage note; $26.3 million outstanding on the Three Glenlake Building mortgage note; $248.6248.7 million in
5.875% bonds outstanding; and $675.6$674.5 million outstanding on fixed-rate, term mortgage loans. The weighted-average interest rate of all of our debt instruments was 4.40%4.52% as of September 30, 2012March 31, 2013.
On February 3, 2012, we closed on the $450 Million Term Loan, a four-year, unsecured term loan with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., which yielded initial gross proceeds of $375.0 million and additional gross proceeds of $35.0 million in the second quarter and $40.0 million in the third quarter, for total outstanding borrowings of $450.0 million as of September 30, 2012. The $450 Million Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR, plus an applicable base margin; however, we effectively fixed the interest rate (assuming no change in our corporate credit rating) at 2.64% per annum with an interest rate swap executed contemporaneously with the loan. The $450 Million Term Loan matures on February 3, 2016, provided that certain conditions are met prior to that date. Furthermore, provided that certain additional conditions are met prior to, and at maturity, the $450 Million Term Loan shall become eligible for a one-year extension upon paying an extension fee equal to 0.15% of the outstanding balance.
As described above, the $450 Million Term Loan provided two accordion options to increase total borrowings to a maximum of $450.0 million, both of which have been exercised. Contemporaneous with closing on these new borrowings, we effectively fixed the interest rate (assuming no change in our corporate credit rating) on each accordion option with an interest rate swap agreement, which together caused the weighted average effective borrowing rate on aggregate borrowings under the $450 Million Term Loan to decrease slightly from 2.64% per annum to 2.63% per annum. The total proceeds from the $450 Million Term Loan were used to repay temporary borrowings, and thereby create additional borrowing capacity, under the JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility. The majority of these temporary borrowings were drawn to settle mortgage loans during the second half of 2011 and during 2012.
During the first quarter of 2012, we used cash on hand and proceeds from the JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility to fully repay the Highland Landmark Building mortgage note of $33.8 million at its maturity. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we made interest payments of approximately $37.3 million and $34.2 million, respectively, related to our line of credit and notes payable.
Approximately $1,400.4$1,607.7 million of our total debt outstanding as of September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, is subject to fixed rates, either directly or when coupled with an interest rate swap agreement. As of September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, these balances incurred interest expense at an average interest rate of 4.51%4.54% and have expirations ranging from 20122013 through 2023. A change in the market interest rate impacts the net financial instrument position of our fixed-rate debt portfolio; however, it has no impact on interest incurred or cash flows. The amounts outstanding on our variable-rate debt facilities in the future will largely depend upon the level of investor proceeds raised under our DRP and the rate at which we are able to employ such proceeds in acquisitions of real properties.
We do not believe there is any exposure to increases in interest rates related to the capital lease obligations of $646.0$586.0 million at September 30, 2012March 31, 2013, as the obligations are at fixed interest rates.
Foreign Currency Risk
We are also subject to foreign exchange risk arising from our foreign operations in Russia. Foreign operations represented 2.1% and 1.9% of total assets at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, and 1.0% and 0.6% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As compared to rates in effect at September 30, 2012, an increase or decrease in the U.S. dollar to Russian rouble exchange rate by 10% would not materially impact the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Requests precluded by this test are not considered in the test below. In addition, if necessary, we limit all redemption requests, including those sought within two years of a stockholder's death, on a pro rata basis so that the aggregate of such redemptions during any calendar year do not exceed the greater of 100% of the net proceeds from our DRP during the calendar year or 5.0% of weighted averageweighted-average number of shares outstanding in the prior calendar year. |
