CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 16 — GLOBAL INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Business

Corporate Property Associates 16 — Global Incorporated (together with its consolidated subsidiaries and predecessors, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a publicly owned, non-listed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that invests primarily in commercial properties leased to companies domestically and internationally. As a REIT, we are not subject to United States (“U.S.”) federal income taxation as long as we satisfy certain requirements, principally relating to the nature of our income, the level of our distributions and other factors. We earn revenue principally by leasing the properties we own to single corporate tenants, primarily on a triple-net leased basis, which requires the tenant to pay substantially all of the costs associated with operating and maintaining the property. Revenue is subject to fluctuation because of the timing of new lease transactions, lease terminations, lease expirations, contractual rent adjustments, tenant defaults and sales of properties. At September 30, 2010, our portfolio was comprised of our full or partial ownership interests in 385 properties, substantially all of which were triple-net leased to 79 tenants, and totaled approximately 27 million square feet (on a pro rata basis), with an occupancy rate of approximately 99%. We were formed in 2003 and are managed by W. P. Carey & Co. LLC (“WPC”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “advisor”).

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared, without audit, in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not necessarily include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair statement of our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”).

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented in this Report reflects all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Our interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2009, which are included in our 2009 Annual Report, as certain disclosures that would substantially duplicate those contained in the audited consolidated financial statements have not been included in this Report. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire fiscal year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements reflect all of our accounts, including those of our majority-owned and/or controlled subsidiaries. The portion of equity in a subsidiary that is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to us is presented as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. We hold investments in tenant-in-common interests, which we account for as equity investments in real estate under current authoritative accounting guidance.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued amended guidance related to the consolidation of variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The amended guidance affects the overall consolidation analysis, changing the approach taken by companies in identifying which entities are VIEs and in determining which party is the primary beneficiary, and requires an enterprise to qualitatively assess the determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE based on whether the entity (i) has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE, and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The amended guidance changes the consideration of kick-out rights in determining if an entity is a VIE, which may cause certain additional entities to now be considered VIEs. Additionally, the guidance requires an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary and provides a framework for the events that trigger a reassessment of whether an entity is a VIE. We adopted this amended guidance on January 1, 2010, which did not require consolidation of any additional VIEs, but we have reflected the assets and liabilities related to previously consolidated VIEs, of which we are the primary beneficiary and which we consolidate, separately in our consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The adoption of this amended guidance did not affect our financial position and results of operations.

CPA^®:16 — Global 9/30/2010 10-Q —6

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

In connection with the adoption of the amended guidance on the consolidation of VIEs, we performed an analysis of all of our subsidiary entities, including our venture entities with other parties, to determine whether they qualify as VIEs and whether they should be consolidated or accounted for as equity investments in an unconsolidated venture. As a result of our assessment to determine whether these entities are VIEs, we identified six entities that were deemed to be VIEs. These entities were deemed VIEs as either: the third party tenant that leases property from each entity has the right to repurchase the property during the term of their lease at a fixed price, our venture partners to the entity were not deemed to have sufficient equity at risk, a third party was deemed to have the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the entity, or a third party was deemed to have the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity. The nature of operations and organizational structure of these VIEs are consistent with our other entities (Note 1) except for the repurchase and residual returns rights of these entities.

After making the determination that these entities were VIEs, we performed an assessment as to which party would be considered the primary beneficiary of each entity and would be required to consolidate each entity’s balance sheet and results of operations. This assessment was based upon which party (i) had the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (ii) had the obligation to absorb the expected losses of or right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Based on our assessment, it was determined that we would continue to consolidate five of the VIEs. During the first quarter of 2010, the remaining VIE was deconsolidated and reclassified as an asset held for sale in connection with the property being placed into receivership (Note 12). Activities that we considered significant in our assessment included which entity had control over financing decisions, leasing decisions and ability to sell the entity’s assets.

Because we generally utilize non-recourse debt, our maximum exposure to any VIE is limited to the equity we have in each VIE. We have not provided financial or other support to any VIE, and there were no guarantees or other commitments from third parties that would affect the value of or risk related to our interest in such entities.

Acquisition Costs

In accordance with the FASB’s revised guidance for business combinations, which we adopted on January 1, 2009, we immediately expense all acquisition costs and fees associated with transactions deemed to be business combinations, but we capitalize these costs for transactions deemed to be acquisitions of an asset. To the extent we make investments that are deemed to be business combinations, our results of operations will be negatively impacted by the immediate expensing of acquisition costs and fees incurred in accordance with the revised guidance, whereas in the past such costs and fees would generally have been capitalized and allocated to the cost basis of the acquisition. Subsequent to the acquisition, there will be a positive impact on our results of operations through a reduction in depreciation expense over the estimated life of the properties. No acquisition costs or fees were capitalized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 as we did not enter into any new investments. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we capitalized acquisition costs and fees of $4.6 million and $7.7 million, respectively, in connection with our investment activity.

Information about International Geographic Areas

At September 30, 2010, our international investments were comprised of investments in the European Union, Canada, Mexico, Malaysia and Thailand. Revenues from these investments totaled $25.6 million and $26.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $77.6 million and $76.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Internationally, our net investments in real estate totaled $940.0 million and $1.0 billion at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

Note 3. Agreements and Transactions with Related Parties

We have an advisory agreement with the advisor whereby the advisor performs certain services for us for a fee. The agreement that is currently in effect was recently renewed for an additional year pursuant to its terms effective October 1, 2010. Under the terms of this agreement, the advisor manages our day-to-day operations, for which we pay the advisor asset management and performance fees, and structures and negotiates the purchase and sale of investments and debt placement transactions for us, for which we pay the advisor structuring and subordinated disposition fees. In addition, we reimburse the advisor for certain administrative duties performed on our behalf. We also have certain agreements with joint ventures. These transactions are described below.

Asset Management and Performance Fees

We pay the advisor asset management and performance fees, each of which are 1/2 of 1% per annum of our average invested assets and are computed as provided for in the advisory agreement. The performance fees are subordinated to the performance criterion, a non-compounded cumulative annual distribution return of 6% per annum. The asset management and performance fees are payable in cash or restricted shares of our common stock at the advisor’s option. If the advisor elects to receive all or a portion of its fees in restricted shares, the number of restricted shares issued is determined by dividing the dollar amount of fees by our most recently published estimated net asset value per share as approved by our board of directors. For 2010 and 2009, the advisor elected to receive its asset management fees in cash and its performance fees in restricted shares. We incurred base asset management fees of $2.9 million for each of the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and $8.8 million for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, with performance fees in like amounts, both of which are included in Property expenses in the consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 2010, the advisor owned 6,671,391 shares (5.3%) of our common stock.

Transaction Fees

We also pay the advisor acquisition fees for structuring and negotiating investments and related mortgage financing on our behalf. Acquisition fees average approximately 4.5% of the aggregate cost of investments acquired and are comprised of a current portion of 2.5%, which is paid at the date the investment is purchased, and a deferred portion of 2%, which is payable in equal annual installments each January of the three calendar years following the date on which the investment was purchased, subject to satisfaction of the 6% performance criterion. Interest on unpaid installments is 5% per year. We did not incur any current or deferred acquisition fees during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2010. We incurred current and deferred acquisition fees of $1.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2009 and $2.9 million and $2.3 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Unpaid installments of deferred acquisition fees totaled $2.7 million and $9.0 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, and are included in Due to affiliates in the consolidated financial statements. We paid annual deferred acquisition fee installments of $6.3 million and $9.1 million in cash to the advisor in January 2010 and 2009, respectively. We also pay the advisor mortgage refinancing fees, which totaled $0.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. No such mortgage refinancing fees were paid during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.

We also pay fees to the advisor for services provided to us in connection with the disposition of investments. These fees, which are subordinated to the performance criterion and certain other provisions included in the advisory agreement, are deferred and are payable to the advisor only in connection with a liquidity event. Subordinated disposition fees totaled $1.0 million at both September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Other Expenses

We reimburse the advisor for various expenses it incurs in the course of providing services to us. We reimburse certain third-party expenses paid by the advisor on our behalf, including property-specific costs, professional fees, office expenses and business development expenses. In addition, we reimburse the advisor for the allocated costs of personnel and overhead in providing management of our day-to-day operations, including accounting services, shareholder services, corporate management, and property management and operations. We do not reimburse the advisor for the cost of personnel if these personnel provide services for transactions for which the advisor receives a transaction fee, such as acquisitions, dispositions and refinancings. We incurred personnel reimbursements of $0.8 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and $2.6 million and $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, all of which are included in General and administrative expenses in the consolidated financial statements.

Joint Ventures and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Together with certain affiliates, we participate in an entity that leases office space used for the administration of real estate entities. This entity does not have any significant assets, liabilities or operations other than its interest in the office lease. Under the terms of an office cost-sharing agreement among the participants in this entity, rental, occupancy and leasehold improvement costs are allocated among the participants based on gross revenues and are adjusted quarterly. Our share of expenses incurred was $0.2 million for each of the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 and $0.5 million and $0.6 million for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Based on gross revenues through September 30, 2010, our current share of future minimum lease payments under this agreement would be $0.7 million annually through 2016.

We own interests in entities ranging from 25% to 70%, as well as a jointly-controlled tenant-in-common interest in a property, with the remaining interests held by affiliates. We consolidate certain of these entities and account for the remainder under the equity method of accounting.

Note 4. Net Investments in Properties

Real Estate

Real estate, which consists of land and buildings leased to others, at cost, and accounted for as operating leases, is summarized as follows (in thousands):

	September 30, 2010			December 31, 2009
Land	$	342,672		$	345,347
Buildings		1,406,367			1,351,525
Less: Accumulated depreciation		(137,783	)		(112,385	)
	$	1,611,256		$	1,584,487

In September 2010, we completed and placed into service a build-to-suit project. We reclassified $82.3 million from Real estate under construction to Real estate. The effects of this reclassification were partially offset by the adverse impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on the carrying amount of our asset base as of September 30, 2010 as compared to December 31, 2009, representing a decrease of $25.5 million. The U.S. dollar strengthened against the Euro, as the end-of-period rate for the U.S. dollar in relation to the Euro at September 30, 2010 decreased 5% to $1.3612 from $1.4333 at December 31, 2009. In addition, real estate was reduced by $5.9 million in connection with the deconsolidation of a subsidiary in the first quarter of 2010 as described in Note 12.

Operating Real Estate

Operating real estate, which consists primarily of our hotel operations, at cost, is summarized as follows (in thousands):

	September 30, 2010			December 31, 2009
Land	$	8,296		$	8,296
Buildings		76,280			75,422
Less: Accumulated depreciation		(8,824	)		(6,448	)
	$	75,752		$	77,270

Other

In connection with our acquisition of properties, we have recorded net lease intangibles of $148.9 million, which are being amortized over periods ranging from three years to 40 years. Amortization of below-market and above-market rent intangibles is recorded as an adjustment to Lease revenues, while amortization of in-place lease and tenant relationship intangibles is included in depreciation and amortization. Below-market rent intangibles are included in Prepaid and deferred rental income and security deposits in the consolidated financial statements. Net amortization of intangibles, including the effect of foreign currency translation, was $1.9 million and $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $6.0 million and $6.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Note 5. Equity Investments in Real Estate

We own interests in single-tenant net leased properties leased to corporations through noncontrolling interests in (i) partnerships and limited liability companies that we do not control, but over which we exercise significant influence, and (ii) as tenants-in-common subject to common control. Generally, the underlying investments are jointly owned with affiliates. We account for these investments under the equity method of accounting (i.e., at cost, increased or decreased by our share of earnings or losses, less distributions, plus contributions and other adjustments required by equity method accounting, such as basis differences from other-than-temporary impairments).

(b)	Represents tenant-in-common interest.
(c)	The decrease in carrying value was primarily due to cash distributions made to us by the venture.
(d)	The carrying value of this investment included our share of the net loss on interest rate swap derivative instruments recognized by the venture.

As discussed in Note 2, we adopted the FASB’s amended guidance on the consolidation of VIEs effective January 1, 2010. Upon adoption of the amended guidance, we re-evaluated our existing interests in unconsolidated entities and determined that we should continue to account for our interest in The New York Times Company venture using the equity method of accounting. Carrying amounts related to this VIE are noted in the table above. Because we generally utilize non-recourse debt, our maximum exposure to this VIE is limited to the equity we have in the VIE. We have not provided financial or other support to this VIE, and there are no guarantees or other commitments from third parties that would affect the value of or risk related to our interest in this entity.

(a)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, reflects impairment charges incurred by a venture that leases property to Thales S.A. to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, reflects impairment charges incurred by a venture that formerly leased properties to Lindenmaier A.G. as a result of the tenant’s bankruptcy filing. See Note 9 for a discussion of other-than-temporary impairment charges incurred on our equity investments in real estate during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

(b)

In July 2009, this venture sold four of its five properties back to the tenant for $46.6 million and recognized a gain on sale of $11.1 million.

We recognized income from equity investments in real estate of $3.8 million and $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $13.1 million and $11.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Income from equity investments in real estate represents our proportionate share of the income or losses of these ventures as well as certain depreciation and amortization adjustments related to purchase accounting and other-than-temporary impairment charges.

Equity Investment in Direct Financing Lease Acquired

In March 2009, an entity in which we, our advisor and another affiliate, CPA^®:17 — Global, hold 27.25%, 17.75% and 55% interests, respectively, completed a net lease financing transaction with respect to a leasehold condominium interest, encompassing approximately 750,000 rentable square feet, in the office headquarters of The New York Times Company for approximately $233.7 million, inclusive of acquisition fees payable to the advisor. Our share of the purchase price was approximately $64.2 million, which we funded with existing cash resources. We account for this investment under the equity method of accounting as we do not have a controlling interest in the entity but exercise significant influence over it. In connection with this investment, which was deemed to be a real estate asset acquisition under current accounting guidance, the venture capitalized acquisition-related costs and fees totaling $8.7 million, of which our share was $2.9 million. In August 2009, the venture obtained mortgage financing on the New York Times property of $119.8 million at an annual interest rate of LIBOR plus 4.75% that has been capped at 8.75% through the use of an interest rate cap and a term of five years.

Note 6. Fair Value Measurements

Under current authoritative accounting guidance for fair value measurements, the fair value of an asset is defined as the exit price, which is the amount that would either be received when an asset is sold or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are: Level 1, for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets, such as money market funds, equity securities and U.S. Treasury securities; Level 2, for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the instrument, such as certain derivative instruments including interest rate caps and swaps; and Level 3, for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring us to develop our own assumptions, such as certain securities.

Our financial instruments had the following carrying values and fair values as of the dates shown (in thousands):

	September 30, 2010				December 31, 2009
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Non-recourse debt	$	1,395,075	$	1,331,464	$	1,445,889	$	1,286,300
Notes receivable		351,793		351,877		362,707		363,389

We determined the estimated fair value of our debt instruments using a discounted cash flow model with rates that take into account the credit of the tenants and interest rate risk. We estimated that our other financial assets and liabilities (excluding net investments in direct financing leases) had fair values that approximated their carrying values at both September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

We perform a quarterly assessment, when required, of the value of certain of our real estate investments in accordance with current authoritative accounting guidance. As part of that assessment, we determined the valuation of these assets using widely accepted valuation techniques, including expected discounted cash flows or an income capitalization approach, which considers prevailing market capitalization rates. We reviewed each investment based on the highest and best use of the investment and market participation assumptions. We determined that the significant inputs used to value these investments fall within Level 3. We calculated the impairment charges recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 based on market conditions and assumptions at September 30, 2010 and 2009. The valuation of real estate is subject to significant judgment and actual results may differ materially if market conditions or the underlying assumptions change.

Note 7. Risk Management and Use of Derivative Financial Instruments

Risk Management

In the normal course of our ongoing business operations, we encounter economic risk. There are three main components of economic risk: interest rate risk, credit risk and market risk. We are subject to interest rate risk on our interest-bearing liabilities. Credit risk is the risk of default on our operations and tenants’ inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk includes changes in the value of our properties and related loans, as well as changes in the value of our other securities due to changes in interest rates or other market factors. In addition, we own investments in the European Union, Canada, Mexico, Malaysia and Thailand and are subject to the risks associated with changing foreign currency exchange rates.

CPA^®:16 — Global 9/30/2010 10-Q —14

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Foreign Currency Exchange

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate movements, primarily in the Euro and, to a lesser extent, certain other currencies. We manage foreign currency exchange rate movements by generally placing both our debt obligation to the lender and the tenant’s rental obligation to us in the same currency, but we are subject to foreign currency exchange rate movements to the extent of the difference in the timing and amount of the rental obligation and the debt service. We also face challenges with repatriating cash from our foreign investments. We may encounter instances where it is difficult to repatriate cash because of jurisdictional restrictions or because repatriating cash may result in current or future tax liabilities. Realized and unrealized gains and losses recognized in earnings related to foreign currency transactions are included in Other income and (expenses) in the consolidated financial statements.

Use of Derivative Financial Instruments

When we use derivative instruments, it is generally to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. We have not entered, and do not plan to enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. In addition to derivative instruments that we entered into on our own behalf, we may also be a party to derivative instruments that are embedded in other contracts, and we may own common stock warrants, granted to us by lessees when structuring lease transactions, that are considered to be derivative instruments. The primary risks related to our use of derivative instruments are that a counterparty to a hedging arrangement could default on its obligation or that the credit quality of the counterparty may be downgraded to such an extent that it impairs our ability to sell or assign our side of the hedging transaction. While we seek to mitigate these risks by entering into hedging arrangements with counterparties that are large financial institutions that we deem to be creditworthy, it is possible that our hedging transactions, which are intended to limit losses, could adversely affect our earnings. Furthermore, if we terminate a hedging arrangement, we may be obligated to pay certain costs, such as transaction or breakage fees. We have established policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities.

We measure derivative instruments at fair value and record them as assets or liabilities, depending on our rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. If a derivative is designated as a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged asset, liability, or firm commitment through earnings or recognized in Other comprehensive income (“OCI”) until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding our derivative instruments at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 (in thousands):

A venture that leases properties to Berry Plastics, and in which we hold a 50% ownership interest, had a non-recourse mortgage loan with a total carrying value of $29.0 million at both September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. In May 2010, the venture refinanced this loan, replacing a variable rate loan and a related interest rate cap with a ten-year fixed-rate loan bearing interest at an annual rate of 5.9%. The new loan includes a scheduled balloon payment of $21.0 million in June 2020. As a result of this refinancing, the existing interest rate cap that had been designated as a hedge against the loan is no longer designated as a hedge and the related unrealized loss of less than $0.1 million included in Equity was expensed. The interest rate cap had an estimated total fair value of less than $0.1 million at December 31, 2009. No gains or losses were recognized in income related to this instrument during either the three or nine months ended September 30, 2009.

See below for information on our purposes for entering into derivative instruments, including those not designated as hedging instruments, and for information on derivative instruments owned by unconsolidated ventures, which are excluded from the tables above.

Interest Rate Swaps and Caps

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we attempt to obtain mortgage financing on a long-term, fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, we or our venture partners may obtain variable rate non-recourse mortgage loans and, as a result, may enter into interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements with counterparties. Interest rate swaps, which effectively convert the variable rate debt service obligations of the loan to a fixed rate, are agreements in which one party exchanges a stream of interest payments for a counterparty’s stream of cash flow over a specific period. The notional, or face, amount on which the swaps are based is not exchanged. Interest rate caps limit the effective borrowing rate of variable rate debt obligations while allowing participants to share in downward shifts in interest rates. Our objective in using these derivatives is to limit our exposure to interest rate movements.

The interest rate swap derivative instrument that we had outstanding at September 30, 2010 was designated as a cash flow hedge and is summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

Foreign Currency Contracts

We enter into foreign currency forward contracts and collars to hedge certain of our foreign currency cash flow exposures. A foreign currency forward contract is a commitment to deliver a certain amount of currency at a certain price on a specific date in the future. A foreign currency collar consists of a purchased call option to buy and a written put option to sell the foreign currency. By entering into these instruments, we are locked into a future currency exchange rate, which limits our exposure to the movement in foreign currency exchange rates.

In May 2010, we entered into two foreign currency zero-cost collars to hedge against a change in the exchange rate of the Euro versus the U.S. dollar. These contracts had a total notional amount of $6.4 million, based on the exchange rate of the Euro at September 30, 2010, and placed a floor on the exchange rate of the Euro at $1.15 and a ceiling ranging from $1.2925 to $1.2965. These contracts settle in October 2010 and January 2011.

In January 2010, we entered into two foreign currency zero-cost collars to hedge against a change in the exchange rate of the Euro versus the U.S. dollar. These contracts had a total notional amount of $6.9 million, based on the exchange rate of the Euro at September 30, 2010, and placed a floor on the exchange rate of the Euro at $1.30 and a ceiling ranging from $1.4580 to $1.4616. These contracts settled in April and July 2010.

In January 2009, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts with a total notional amount of $3.9 million, based on the exchange rate of the Euro at September 30, 2010. These contracts fixed the exchange rate of the Euro to rates ranging from $1.3307 to $1.3436 with maturity dates between March 2009 and December 2010.

Embedded Credit Derivatives

In connection with our April 2007 investment in a portfolio of German properties through a venture in which we have a total effective ownership interest of 26% and which we consolidate, we obtained non-recourse mortgage financing for which the interest rate has both fixed and variable components. In connection with providing the financing, the lender entered into an interest rate swap agreement on its own behalf through which the fixed interest rate component of the financing was converted into a variable interest rate instrument. Through the venture, we have the right, at our sole discretion, to prepay this debt at any time and to participate in any realized gain or loss on the interest rate swap at that time. These participation rights are deemed to be embedded credit derivatives.

Stock Warrants

We own stock warrants that were generally granted to us by lessees in connection with structuring initial lease transactions. These warrants are defined as derivative instruments because they are readily convertible to cash or provide for net cash settlement upon conversion.

Other

Amounts reported in OCI related to the interest rate derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our non-recourse variable-rate debt. At September 30, 2010, we estimate that an additional $0.2 million will be reclassified as interest expense during the next twelve months.

We have agreements with some of our derivative counterparties that contain certain credit contingent provisions that could result in a declaration of default against us regarding our derivative obligations if we either default or are capable of being declared in default on certain of our indebtedness. At September 30, 2010, we had not been declared in default on any of our derivative obligations. The estimated fair value of our derivatives that were in a net liability position was $0.9 million and $0.4 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk. If we had breached any of these provisions at either September 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009, we could have been required to settle our obligations under these agreements at their termination value of $1.0 million or $0.4 million, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Portfolio Concentration Risk

Concentrations of credit risk arise when a group of tenants is engaged in similar business activities or is subject to similar economic risks or conditions that could cause them to default on their lease obligations to us. We regularly monitor our portfolio to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. While we believe our portfolio is reasonably well diversified, it does contain concentrations in excess of 10% of current annualized contractual lease revenues in certain areas, as described below. The percentages in the paragraph below represent our directly owned real estate properties and do not include the pro rata shares of our equity investments.

At September 30, 2010, 58% of our directly-owned real estate properties were located in the U.S., and the majority of our directly-owned international properties were located in the European Union (39%), with Germany (25%) representing the only significant international concentration based on percentage of our annualized contractual minimum base rent for the third quarter of 2010. Within our German investments, one tenant, Hellweg Die Profi-Baumarkte GmbH & Co. KG, represented 19% of lease revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, inclusive of noncontrolling interest. At September 30, 2010, our directly-owned real estate properties contained significant concentrations in the following asset types: industrial (45%), warehouse/distribution (19%), retail (19%) and office (13%); and in the following tenant industries: retail (28%) and chemicals, plastics, rubber and glass (10%).

Note 8. Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interest is the portion of equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent. There were no changes in our ownership interest in any of our consolidated subsidiaries for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

The following table presents a reconciliation of total equity, the equity attributable to our shareholders and the equity attributable to noncontrolling interests (in thousands):

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

Under current authoritative accounting guidance, we account for the noncontrolling interests in a note receivable recorded in connection with a German transaction in 2007 as redeemable noncontrolling interests because the transaction contains put options that, if exercised, would obligate the partners to settle in cash. The partners’ interests are reflected at estimated redemption value for all periods presented.

Note 9. Impairment Charges

We periodically assess whether there are any indicators that the value of our real estate investments may be impaired or that their carrying value may not be recoverable. For investments in real estate in which an impairment indicator is identified, we follow a two-step process to determine whether the investment is impaired and to determine the amount of the charge. First, we compare the carrying value of the real estate to the future net undiscounted cash flow that we expect the real estate will generate, including any estimated proceeds from the eventual sale of the real estate. If this amount is less than the carrying value, the real estate is considered to be impaired, and we then measure the loss as the excess of the carrying value of the real estate over the estimated fair value of the real estate, which is primarily determined using market information such as recent comparable sales or broker quotes. If relevant market information is not available or is not deemed appropriate, we then perform a future net cash flow analysis discounted for inherent risk associated with each investment.

The following table summarizes impairment charges recognized on our consolidated and unconsolidated real estate investments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 (in thousands):

(a) Impairment charges on our equity investments in real estate are included in Income from equity investments in real estate within the consolidated financial statements.

2010 Impairments:

During the third quarter of 2010, we recognized impairment charges of $1.8 million on several properties accounted for as Net investments in direct financing leases in connection with other-than-temporary declines in the estimated fair value of the properties’ residual value. Additionally, we recognized other-than-temporary impairment charges totaling $1.0 million on two ventures to reflect the decline in the estimated fair value of the ventures’ underlying net assets in comparison with the carrying values of our interests in these ventures.

During the first quarter of 2010, we recognized impairment charges of $8.0 million, inclusive of amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests of $2.4 million, on a property leased to The Talaria Company (Hinckley) to reduce the carrying value of this investment to its estimated fair value based on a potential sale of the property. At September 30, 2010, the land was classified as Net investments in properties and the building was classified as Net investment in direct financing leases in the consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

2009 Impairments:

Görtz & Schiele GmbH & Co. and Goertz & Schiele Corp.

During each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we recognized impairment charges totaling $9.5 million related to a property leased to Görtz & Schiele GmbH & Co., which filed for bankruptcy in November 2008 and $7.5 million related to a property leased to Goertz & Schiele Corp. which filed for bankruptcy in September 2009. In March 2010, SaarOTEC, a successor tenant to Görtz & Schiele GmbH & Co., signed a new lease with substantially the same terms. Goertz & Schiele Corp. terminated its lease with us in bankruptcy proceedings in January 2010 and following possession by the receiver during January 2010, the subsidiary was deconsolidated during the first quarter of 2010 (Note 12). At September 30, 2010, the property formerly leased to Görtz & Schiele GmbH & Co. was classified as Net investments in properties in the consolidated financial statements. The results of operations of the property formerly leased to Goertz & Schiele Corp., including this impairment charge, are included in Income (loss) from discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.

Foss Manufacturing Company, LLC

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we incurred impairment charges totaling $16.0 million in connection with a property leased to Foss Manufacturing Company, LLC as a result of a significant deterioration in the tenant’s financial outlook. We calculated the estimated fair value of this property based on a discounted cash flow analysis. At September 30, 2010, this property was classified as Net investments in properties in the consolidated financial statements.

John McGavigan Limited

During each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we incurred an impairment charge of $5.2 million in connection with a property in the United Kingdom where the tenant, John McGavigan Limited, filed for bankruptcy in September 2009. We calculated the estimated fair value of this property based on a discounted cash flow analysis. At September 30, 2010, this property was classified as Net investment in properties in the consolidated financial statements.

MetalsAmerica, Inc.

In the second quarter of 2009, we recognized an impairment charge of $5.1 million related to a domestic property formerly leased to MetalsAmerica, Inc., which filed for bankruptcy in July 2009. We reduced the property’s carrying value to its estimated selling price and sold the property in August 2009. The results of operations of this property, including the impairment charge, are included in Income (loss) from discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.

Lindenmaier A.G.

During each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we recognized an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $1.3 million to reduce the carrying value of a venture to the estimated fair value of its underlying net assets, which we assessed using a discounted cash flow analysis. The venture formerly leased property to Lindenmaier A.G., which filed for bankruptcy in the second quarter of 2009. This venture was classified as Equity investment in real estate in the consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2010.

Other

During each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we incurred an impairment charge of $1.9 million in connection with a domestic property where the tenant entered liquidation proceedings. We calculated the estimated fair value of this property using third party broker quotes. At September 30, 2010, this property was classified as Net investment in properties in the consolidated financial statements.

In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we recorded a gain of $1.0 million on a venture that had previously been impaired.

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies

Various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business are pending against us. The results of these proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 11. Income Taxes

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. We believe we have operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in a manner that allows us to continue to qualify as a REIT. Under the REIT operating structure, we are permitted to deduct distributions paid to our shareholders and generally will not be required to pay U.S. federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision has been made for U.S. federal income taxes in the consolidated financial statements.

We conduct business in the various states and municipalities within the U.S. and in the European Union, Canada, Mexico, Malaysia and Thailand, and as a result, we file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and certain foreign jurisdictions.

CPA^®:16 — Global 9/30/2010 10-Q —20

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

We account for uncertain tax positions in accordance with current authoritative accounting guidance. At both September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had unrecognized tax benefits of $0.3 million that, if recognized, would have a favorable impact on the effective income tax rate in future periods. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. At both September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had less than $0.1 million of accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions.

Our tax returns are subject to audit by taxing authorities. These audits can often take years to complete and settle. The tax years 2007 through 2010 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject.

We have elected to treat two of our corporate subsidiaries, which engage in hotel operations, as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”). These subsidiaries own hotels that are managed on our behalf by third party hotel management companies. A TRS is subject to corporate federal income taxes, and we provide for income taxes in accordance with current authoritative accounting guidance. One of these subsidiaries has operated at a loss since inception, and as a result, we have recorded a full valuation allowance for this subsidiary’s net operating loss carryforwards. The other subsidiary became profitable in the first quarter of 2009, and therefore we have recorded a tax provision for this subsidiary.

Note 12. Discontinued Operations

From time to time, tenants may vacate space due to lease buy-outs, elections not to renew their leases, insolvency or lease rejection in the bankruptcy process. In these cases, we assess whether we can obtain the highest value from the property by re-leasing or selling it. In addition, in certain cases, we may try to sell a property that is occupied. When it is appropriate to do so under current accounting guidance for the disposal of long-lived assets, we reclassify the property as an asset held for sale and the current and prior period results of operations of the property are reclassified as discontinued operations.

In January 2010, a consolidated subsidiary consented to a court order appointing a receiver after we ceased making payments on a non-recourse debt obligation collateralized by a property that was previously leased to Goertz & Schiele Corp. As we no longer have control over the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of this subsidiary following possession by the receiver during January 2010, the subsidiary was deconsolidated during the first quarter of 2010. During the second quarter of 2009, Goertz & Schiele Corp. ceased making rent payments to us, and as a result, we suspended the debt service payments on the related mortgage loan beginning in July 2009. Goertz & Schiele Corp. filed for bankruptcy in September 2009 and terminated its lease with us in bankruptcy proceedings in January 2010. At the date of deconsolidation, the property had a carrying value of $5.9 million, reflecting the impact of impairment charges totaling $15.7 million recognized in 2009, of which $7.5 million was recognized through September 30, 2009, and the non-recourse mortgage loan had an outstanding balance of $13.3 million. In connection with this deconsolidation, we recognized a gain of $7.1 million, inclusive of amounts attributable to noncontrolling interest of $3.5 million. We believe that the fair value of our retained interest in this deconsolidated entity is zero at September 30, 2010. We have recorded the operations and gain recognized upon deconsolidation as discontinued operations.

In July and August 2009, we sold two domestic properties for $51.9 million, net of selling costs. We recognized a net gain on the sales of these properties totaling $7.6 million, excluding an impairment charge recognized in 2009 of $5.1 million on one of the properties (Note 9). Additionally, we recognized a net gain on extinguishment of debt of $2.3 million as a result of the lender releasing all liens on one of the properties in exchange for the sale proceeds.

The results of operations for properties that are held for sale or have been sold are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented and are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) is intended to provide the reader with information that will assist in understanding our financial statements and the reasons for changes in certain key components of our financial statements from period to period. MD&A also provides the reader with our perspective on our financial position and liquidity, as well as certain other factors that may affect our future results. Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with our 2009 Annual Report.

Business Overview

We are a publicly owned, non-listed REIT that invests primarily in commercial properties leased to companies domestically and internationally. As a REIT, we are not subject to U.S. federal income taxation as long as we satisfy certain requirements, principally relating to the nature of our income, the level of our distributions and other factors. We earn revenue principally by leasing the properties we own to single corporate tenants, primarily on a triple-net lease basis, which requires the tenant to pay substantially all of the costs associated with operating and maintaining the property. Revenue is subject to fluctuation because of the timing of new lease transactions, lease terminations, lease expirations, contractual rent adjustments, tenant defaults and sales of properties. We were formed in 2003 and are managed by the advisor.

We consider the performance metrics listed above, including certain non-GAAP metrics such as Funds from operations — as adjusted, or AFFO, and Adjusted cash flow from operating activities, to be important measures in the evaluation of our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources. We evaluate our results of operations with a primary focus on the ability to generate cash flow necessary to meet our objectives of funding distributions to shareholders. Please see Supplemental Financial Measures below for our definition of these measures and reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Net income attributable to CPA^®:16 — Global shareholders in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 reflected higher lease revenue and a reduction in the level of impairment charges recognized as compared to the same period in 2009. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized impairment charges of $10.8 million, while for the same period in 2009 we recognized impairment charges of $45.5 million.

Cash flow from operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 benefited from the additional revenues generated from our investment activity during 2009.

Our quarterly cash distribution remained at $0.1656 per share for the third quarter of 2010, which equates to $0.66 per share on an annualized basis.

Our AFFO supplemental measure for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same periods in 2009 increased by $2.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively, primarily due to investment activity in 2009.

Our Adjusted cash flow from operating activities supplemental measure for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 increased as compared to the same period in 2009, reflecting increased cash flow generated as a result of 2009 investment activity.

Changes in Management

Effective September 16, 2010, Trevor P. Bond, a director of W. P. Carey, was elected as W. P. Carey’s Chief Executive Officer. As a result, under the terms of our advisory agreement, Mr. Bond also became our Chief Executive Officer at that time. Mr. Bond will also serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the other operating CPA^® REITs. Mr. Bond became the interim Chief Executive Officer for us and the other operating CPA^® REITs effective July 6, 2010 pursuant to their respective advisory agreements when he was appointed as interim Chief Executive Officer of W. P. Carey on that same date upon the resignation of Gordon F. Dugan.

Current Trends

General Economic Environment

We are impacted by macro-economic environmental factors, the capital markets, and general conditions in the commercial real estate market, both in the U.S. and globally. As of the date of this Report, we have seen signs of modest improvement in the global economy following the significant distress experienced in 2008 and 2009. While these factors reflect favorably on our business, the economic recovery remains weak, and our business remains dependent on the speed and strength of the recovery, which cannot be predicted at this time. Nevertheless, as of the date of this Report, the impact of current financial and economic trends on our business, and our response to those trends, is presented below.

Tenant Defaults

Tenant defaults can reduce our results of operations and cash flow from operations if our tenants are unable to pay their rent. Tenants experiencing financial difficulties may become delinquent on their rent and/or default on their leases and, if they file for bankruptcy protection, may reject our lease in bankruptcy court, all of which may require us to incur impairment charges. Even where a default has not occurred and a tenant is continuing to make the required lease payments, we may restructure or renew leases on less favorable terms, or the tenant’s credit profile may deteriorate, which could affect the value of the leased asset and could in turn require us to incur impairment charges.

As of the date of this Report, we have no significant exposure to tenants operating under bankruptcy protection. Our experience for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 reflects an improvement from the unusually high level of tenant defaults during 2008 and 2009 when companies across many industries experienced financial distress due to the economic downturn and the seizure in the credit markets. We continue to observe that many of our tenants have benefited from continued improvements in general business conditions.

To mitigate these risks of tenant defaults, we have historically looked to invest in assets that we believe are critically important to a tenant’s operations and have attempted to diversify our portfolio by tenant and tenant industry. We also monitor tenant performance through review of rent delinquencies as a precursor to a potential default, meetings with tenant management and review of tenants’ financial statements and compliance with any financial covenants. When necessary, our asset management process includes restructuring transactions to meet the evolving needs of tenants, re-leasing properties, refinancing debt and selling properties, as well as protecting our rights when tenants default or enter into bankruptcy.

Foreign Exchange Rates

We have foreign investments and, as a result, are subject to risk from the effects of exchange rate movements. An unhedged position in an investment denominated in a foreign currency could have an impact on the value of our equity as measured in dollars and the dollar amount of cash flow that we receive. Consequently, our results of foreign operations generally benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies. Investments denominated in the Euro accounted for approximately 36% and 38% of our annualized contractual lease revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the U.S. dollar strengthened against the Euro, as the average rate for the U.S. dollar in relation to the Euro decreased by 4% in comparison to the same period in 2009. Additionally, the end-of-period conversion rate at September 30, 2010 decreased 5% to $1.3612 from $1.4333 at December 31, 2009. This strengthening had a negative impact on our balance sheet at September 30, 2010 as compared to our balance sheet at December 31, 2009. A significant increase in the value of the dollar against the Euro could have a material negative impact on our future results, financial position and cash flows.

Capital Markets

We have recently seen a gradual improvement in capital market conditions including new issuances of commercial mortgage-backed securities debt. Capital inflows to both commercial real estate debt and equity markets have helped increase the availability of mortgage financing and asset prices have begun to recover from their credit crisis lows. Over the past few quarters, there has been continued improvement in the availability of financing; however, lenders remain cautious and continue to employ more conservative underwriting standards. We have seen commercial real estate capitalization rates begin to narrow from credit crisis highs, especially for higher quality assets or assets leased to tenants with strong credit.

CPA^®:16 — Global 9/30/2010 10-Q —23

Financing Conditions

We have recently seen a gradual improvement in both the credit and real estate financing markets. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we saw an increase in the number of lenders for both domestic and international investments as market conditions improved.

Real Estate Sector

As noted above, the commercial real estate market is impacted by a variety of macro-economic factors, including but not limited to changes in gross domestic product, unemployment, interest rates, inflation, and demographics. Since the beginning of the recent credit crisis, these macro-economic factors have persisted, negatively impacting the fundamentals of the commercial real estate market, which has resulted in higher vacancies, lower rental rates, and lower demand for vacant space. While more recently there have been some indications of stabilization in asset values and slight improvements in occupancy rates, general uncertainty surrounding commercial real estate fundamentals and property valuations continues. We are chiefly affected by changes in estimated net asset values of our properties, inflation, lease expirations, tenant defaults and occupancy rates.

Net Asset Values

We generally calculate an estimated net asset value per share for our portfolio on an annual basis. This calculation is based in part on an estimate of the fair market value of our real estate provided by a third party, adjusted to give effect to the estimated fair value of mortgages encumbering our assets (also provided by a third party) as well as other adjustments. There are a number of variables that comprise this calculation, including individual tenant credits, lease terms, lending credit spreads, foreign currency exchange rates and tenant defaults, among others. We do not control these variables and, as such, cannot predict how they will change in the future.

As a result of the overall continued weakness in the economy during 2009, our estimated net asset value per share as of December 31, 2009 decreased to $9.20, a 6.1% decline from our December 31, 2008 estimated net asset value per share of $9.80. We generally would not expect to update our estimated net asset value on an interim basis unless we were to undertake an extraordinary corporate transaction. However, there can be no assurance that, if we were to calculate our estimated net asset value on an interim basis, it would not be less than $9.20 per share, particularly given recent market volatility.

Inflation

Our leases generally have rent adjustments that are either fixed or based on formulas indexed to changes in the consumer price index (“CPI”) or other similar indices for the jurisdiction in which the property is located. Because these rent adjustments may be calculated based on changes in the CPI over a multi-year period, changes in inflation rates can have a delayed impact on our results of operations. Rent adjustments during 2009 and, to a lesser extent, the nine months ended September 30, 2010 generally benefited from increases in inflation rates during the years prior to the scheduled rent adjustment date. However, we continue to expect that rent increases will be significantly lower in coming years as a result of the current historically low inflation rates in the U.S. and the Euro zone.

Lease Expirations and Occupancy

At September 30, 2010, we had no significant leases scheduled to expire or renew in the next twelve months. The advisor actively manages our real estate portfolio and begins discussing options with tenants in advance of the scheduled lease expiration. In certain cases, we obtain lease renewals from our tenants; however, tenants may elect to move out at the end of their term, or may elect to exercise purchase options, if any, in their leases. In cases where tenants elect not to renew, the advisor may seek replacement tenants or try to sell the property.

Our occupancy remained at 99% at both December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2010.

Proposed Accounting Changes

The International Accounting Standards Board and FASB have issued an Exposure Draft on a joint proposal that would dramatically transform lease accounting from the existing model. These changes would impact most companies, but are particularly applicable to those that are significant users of real estate. The proposal outlines a completely new model for accounting by lessees, whereby their rights and obligations under all leases, existing and new, would be capitalized and recorded on the balance sheet. For some companies, the new accounting guidance may influence whether or not, or the extent to which, they enter into the type of sale-leaseback transactions in which we specialize. At this time, we are unable to determine whether this proposal will have a material impact on our business.

CPA^®:16 — Global 9/30/2010 10-Q —24

The Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) of the FASB discussed the accounting treatment for deconsolidating subsidiaries in situations other than a sale or transfer at its September 2010 meeting. While the EITF did not reach a consensus for exposure, the EITF determined that further research was necessary to more fully understand the scope and implications of the matter, prior to issuing a consensus for exposure. If the EITF reaches a consensus that changes the current authoritative accounting guidance, we will evaluate the impact on such conclusion on our financial statements. We deconsolidated a subsidiary that leased property to Goertz & Schiele Corp. which had total assets and liabilities of $7.5 million and $14.5 million, respectively, and recognized a gain in the amount of $7.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

(a)	The increase was due to a CPI-based (or equivalent) rent increase.
(b)	We acquired our interest in this investment in March 2009.
(c)	Amounts are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The average rate for the U.S. dollar in relation to the Euro during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 strengthened by approximately 4%in comparison to the same period in 2009, resulting in a negative impact on lease revenues for our Euro-denominated investments in the current year period.
(d)	The venture sold four of the five properties leased to Thales in July 2009.
(e)	The venture formerly leased two properties to Lindenmaier. In July 2009, the venture entered into an interim lease agreement with Lindenmaier that provided for substantially lower rental income. In April 2010, the venture entered into a lease agreement with a new tenant, Barth Europa, at a vacant property formerly leased to Lindenmaier and in August 2010, MSR Technologies GmbH took over the Lindenmaier business and entered into a new lease with the venture.

Through a venture with our affiliates, we own a 26% effective ownership interest in a venture that owns 37 properties throughout Germany (“the Hellweg 2 transaction”). We consolidate the venture in our financial statements under current authoritative accounting guidance for the consolidation of VIEs. However, because our effective ownership interest is 26%, a significant portion of the results of operations from this transaction is reduced by noncontrolling interests in the entity. As a result of obtaining non-recourse mortgage debt to finance a significant portion of the purchase price and depreciating/amortizing assets over their estimated useful lives, we do not expect this transaction to have a significant impact on our net income. However, the transaction has a significant impact on many of the components of our net income, as described below. Based on the exchange rate of the Euro, this transaction generated property level cash flow from operations (revenues less interest expense) of $7.0 million and $6.0 million, inclusive of noncontrolling interests of $5.1 million and $4.4 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

CPA^®:16 — Global 9/30/2010 10-Q —26

Lease Revenues

Our net leases generally have rent adjustments based on formulas indexed to changes in the CPI or other similar indices for the jurisdiction in which the property is located, sales overrides or other periodic increases, which are intended to increase lease revenues in the future. We own international investments and, therefore, lease revenues from these investments are subject to fluctuations in exchange rate movements in foreign currencies. In certain cases, although we recognize lease revenue in connection with our tenants’ obligation to pay rent, we may also increase our uncollected rent expense if tenants are experiencing financial distress and have not paid the rent to us that they owe.

For the three months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009, lease revenues decreased by $1.1 million, primarily due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which had a negative impact on lease revenues of $1.5 million. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2010, we entered into a lease with SaarOTEC, a successor tenant to Görtz & Schiele GmbH & Co., which provided for lower rental income in comparison to the previous lease. This resulted in a decrease of $0.3 million as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009. These decreases were partially offset by scheduled rent increases of $0.4 million and lease revenue from the July 2009 Tesco investment, which contributed $0.4 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same periods in 2009, lease revenues increased by $2.1 million. Lease revenue from the July 2009 Tesco investment contributed $3.7 million. This increase was partially offset by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates which had a negative impact on lease revenues of $1.2 million, as well as lower rental income recognized from the lease entered into with SaarOTEC as compared to the previous lease, which resulted in a decrease of $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009.

Depreciation and Amortization

For the three months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009, depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $0.3 million, due primarily to the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009, depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.2 million due primarily to depreciation/amortization on the July 2009 Tesco investment of $1.9 million, partially offset by a decrease of $0.3 million as a result of impairments recognized in the prior year, which caused a decline in the basis of the assets being depreciated/amortized. Additionally, the impact of the full amortization of certain intangible assets resulted in a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009.

Property Expenses

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same periods in 2009, property expenses decreased by $1.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively, primarily due to a decrease in uncollected rent expense of $2.5 million and $3.5 million, respectively, partially offset by an increase in both reimbursable tenant costs and professional fees of $0.3 million for both periods. During 2008 and 2009, we recognized uncollected rent expense in connection with three tenants in the automotive industry experiencing financial difficulties. In the third quarter of 2010, a recovery of $1.6 million was recorded as a result of improvements in the financial outlook of these tenants. The remaining decrease in uncollected rent expense is related to certain tenants who are no longer experiencing financial difficulties.

Impairment Charges

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized impairment charges of $1.8 million and $9.8 million, respectively, inclusive of amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests of $0.1 million and $2.5 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized impairment charges of $1.8 million, inclusive of amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests of $0.1 million on several properties accounted for as Net investments in direct financing leases in connection with other-than-temporary declines in the estimated fair value of the properties’ residual value, including a charge of $0.2 million on a property leased to Hinckley.. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we also recognized an impairment charge of $8. million, inclusive of amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests of $2.5 million, on a property leased to Hinckley to reduce the carrying value of this investment to its estimated fair value in connection with a potential sale.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we recognized impairment charges totaling $16.6 million and $32.6 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2009, we incurred impairment charges totaling $16.6 million related to a property formerly leased to Görtz & Schiele GmbH & Co. which filed for bankruptcy in November 2008. We also incurred impairment charges during the three months ended September 30, 2009 totaling $7.1 million in connection with a property in the United Kingdom, where the tenants filed for bankruptcy, and a domestic property, where the tenant entered liquidation proceedings. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we also recognized an impairment charge of $16.0 million in connection with a property leased to Foss Manufacturing Company, LLC as a result of a significant deterioration in the tenant’s financial outlook.

See “Discontinued Operations” below for impairment charges recognized on assets sold or held for sale during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.

Gain on Extinguishment of Debt

In February 2009, a venture in which we and an affiliate each hold 50% interests, which we consolidate, repaid its existing non-recourse debt from the lender at a discount and recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of $6.5 million, inclusive of noncontrolling interests of $3.2 million.

Other Income and (Expenses)

Other income and (expenses) generally consists of gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and derivative instruments. We and certain of our foreign consolidated subsidiaries have intercompany debt and/or advances that are not denominated in the entity’s functional currency. When the intercompany debt or accrued interest thereon is remeasured against the functional currency of the entity, a gain or loss may result. For intercompany transactions that are of a long-term investment nature, the gain or loss is recognized as a cumulative translation adjustment in other comprehensive income (loss). We also recognize gains or losses on foreign currency transactions when we repatriate cash from our foreign investments. In addition, we have certain derivative instruments, including embedded credit derivatives and common stock warrants, for which realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in earnings. The timing and amount of such gains and losses cannot always be estimated and are subject to fluctuation.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized net other expenses of $0.6 million as compared to net other income of $0.3 million recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Net other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 resulted primarily from net realized losses on foreign currency transactions of $0.7 million, partially offset by $0.2 million in net unrealized gains. Net other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was primarily comprised of a net gain on the Hellweg 2 embedded credit derivative and stock warrant.

Discontinued Operations

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized income from discontinued operations of $7.2 million, primarily due to the recognition of a $7.1 million gain on the deconsolidation of Goertz & Schiele Corp. recognized during the first quarter of 2010.

For the three months ended September 30, 2009, we recognized income from discontinued operations of $2.2 million, primarily due to a net gain on property sales of $7.6 million and a gain on extinguishment of debt of $2.3, which was substantially offset by impairment charges recognized totaling $7.5 million on the Goertz & Schiele Corp. property.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we recognized a loss from discontinued operations of $3.0 million primarily due to impairment charges recognized of $7.5 million on the Goertz & Schiele Corp. property and $5.1 million on the Metals America property, offset partially by a net gain on property sales of $7.6 million and a gain on extinguishment of debt of $2.3 million.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to CPA^®:16 — Global Shareholders

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the resulting net income attributable to CPA^®:16 — Global shareholders was $10.9 million and $24.4 million, respectively, as compared to net income of $1.8 million and net loss of $0.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively.

Funds from Operations — as Adjusted (AFFO)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same periods in 2009, AFFO increased by $2.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively, primarily due to investment activity in 2009. AFFO is a non-GAAP measure we use to evaluate our business. For a definition of AFFO and reconciliation to net income attributable to CPA^®:16 — Global shareholders, see Supplemental Financial Measures below.

Financial Condition

Sources and Uses of Cash During the Period

We use the cash flow generated from net leases to meet our operating expenses, service debt and fund distributions to shareholders. Our cash flows fluctuate period to period due to a number of factors, which may include, among other things, the timing of purchases and sales of real estate, the timing of proceeds from non-recourse mortgage loans and receipt of lease revenues, the advisor’s annual election to receive fees in restricted shares of our common stock or cash, the timing and characterization of distributions from equity investments in real estate, payment to the advisor of the annual installment of deferred acquisition fees and interest thereon in the first quarter and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Despite this fluctuation, we believe that we will generate sufficient cash from operations and from equity distributions in excess of equity income in real estate to meet our short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We may also use existing cash resources, the proceeds of non-recourse mortgage loans and the issuance of additional equity securities to meet these needs. We assess our ability to access capital on an ongoing basis. Our sources and uses of cash during the period are described below.

CPA^®:16 — Global 9/30/2010 10-Q —28

Operating Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we used cash flows from operating activities of $91.0 million primarily to fund distributions to shareholders of $38.3 million excluding $23.0 million in reinvested dividends. We also made scheduled mortgage principal installments of $15.7 million and paid distributions to noncontrolling interests partners of $29.8 million. We also used cash distributions received from equity investments in real estate in excess of equity income of $3.8 million (see Investing Activities below) and our existing cash resources to fund these payments. For 2010, the advisor has elected to continue to receive its performance fees in restricted shares of our common stock, and as a result, we paid performance fees of $8.8 million through the issuance of restricted stock rather than in cash.

Investing Activities

Our investing activities are generally comprised of real estate-related transactions (purchases and sales), payment of our annual installment of deferred acquisition fees to the advisor and capitalized property related costs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we used $21.8 million primarily to fund construction costs for a build-to-suit project and an expansion project. The build-to-suit project was placed into service in September 2010. In January 2010, we paid our annual installment of deferred acquisition fees to the advisor, which totaled $6.3 million. We also used $5.6 million to provide financing to the developer of a domestic build-to-suit project.

In addition to making scheduled mortgage principal installments and paying distributions to shareholders and noncontrolling interests during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we used $29.0 million to prepay a non-recourse mortgage loan with a variable interest rate, which we refinanced with new non-recourse debt of $29.0 at a fixed interest rate and term of ten years. We also obtained mortgage financing of $7.9 million on an international property, which bears interest at a fixed rate but has an interest rate reset feature and a term of 10 years. Also, we used $12.9 million to repurchase our shares through a redemption plan that allows shareholders to sell shares back to us, subject to certain limitations as described below.

We maintain a quarterly redemption plan pursuant to which we may, at the discretion of our board of directors, redeem shares of our common stock from shareholders seeking liquidity. The terms of the plan limit the number of shares we may redeem so that the shares we redeem in any quarter, together with the aggregate number of shares redeemed in the preceding three fiscal quarters, does not exceed a maximum of 5% of our total shares outstanding as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter. At September 30, 2010, redemptions totaled approximately 1.6% of total shares outstanding. In addition, our ability to effect redemptions is subject to our having available cash to do so. If we have sufficient funds to purchase some but not all of the shares offered to us for redemption in a particular quarter, or if the shares offered for redemption in a quarter would exceed the 5% limitation, shares will be redeemed on a pro rata basis, subject in all cases to the discretion of our board of directors. Requests not fulfilled in a quarter and not revoked by the shareholder will automatically be carried forward to the next quarter, unless our board of directors determines otherwise, and will receive priority over requests made in the relevant quarter.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we received requests to redeem 1,506,871 shares of our common stock pursuant to our redemption plan, and we redeemed these requests at an average price per share of $8.56. We funded share redemptions during 2010 from the proceeds of the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment and share purchase plan.

Adjusted Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Our adjusted cash flow from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $84.0 million, an increase of $2.0 million over the prior year period. This increase was primarily driven by the impact of investments entered into during 2009. Adjusted cash flow from operating activities is a non-GAAP measure we use to evaluate our business. For a definition of adjusted cash flow from operating activities and reconciliation to cash flow from operating activities, see Supplemental Financial Measures below.

Summary of Financing

The table below summarizes our non-recourse long-term debt (dollars in thousands):

	September 30, 2010			December 31, 2009
Balance
Fixed rate	$	1,356,882		$	1,385,550
Variable rate(a)		38,193			60,339

		100	%		100	%
Weighted average interest rate at end of period
Fixed rate		5.9	%		5.9	%
Variable rate(a)		5.6	%		6.0	%

(a) Variable rate debt at September 30, 2010 included (i) $3.8 million that has been effectively converted to a fixed rate through an interest rate swap derivative instrument and (ii) $34.4 million in non-recourse mortgage loan obligations that bore interest at fixed rates but that have interest rate reset features that may change the interest rates to then-prevailing market fixed rates (subject to specific caps) at certain points during their term. At September 30, 2010, we have one non-recourse mortgage loan obligation with an interest reset feature that is scheduled to reset to 5.32% in the first quarter of 2011. No other interest rate resets or expirations of interest rate swaps or caps are scheduled to occur during the next twelve months.

Cash Resources

At September 30, 2010, our cash resources consisted of cash and cash equivalents totaling $61.6 million. Of this amount, $48.1 million, at then-current exchange rates, was held in foreign bank accounts, but we could be subject to restrictions or significant costs should we decide to repatriate these amounts. We also had unleveraged properties that had an aggregate carrying value of $192.7 million, although given the current economic environment, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain financing for these properties. Our cash resources can be used for working capital needs and other commitments.

Cash Requirements

During the next twelve months, we expect that our cash payments will include paying distributions to our shareholders and to our affiliates who hold noncontrolling interests in entities we control, making scheduled mortgage loan principal payments of $28.8 million (neither we nor our venture partners have any balloon payments on our mortgage loan obligations until the third quarter of 2011) and funding build-to-suit, expansion projects and lending commitments that we currently estimate to total $17.1 million, as well as other normal recurring operating expenses.

At September 30, 2010, we had one tenant in liquidation proceedings who has vacated the property they lease from us and ceased making rent payments. As a result of this default, we have currently suspended debt service on the associated non-recourse mortgage loan with an aggregate outstanding balance of $4.1 million. The property is currently in foreclosure and is expected to be auctioned by the lender.

(a)	Excludes $2.1 million of unamortized discount on a non-recourse loan that we purchased back from the lender.
(b)	Interest on an unhedged variable rate debt obligation was calculated using the variable interest rate and balance outstanding at September 30, 2010.
(c)	Payable to the advisor, subject to meeting contingencies, in connection with any liquidity event. There can be no assurance that any liquidity event will be achieved in this time frame.
(d)	Represents the remaining commitment on a build-to-suit project and two expansion projects. Total estimated construction costs for these projects are currently projected to be $86.6 million, of which $72.9 million had been funded at September 30, 2010.
(e)	Represents unfunded amount on a commitment to provide a loan to a developer of a domestic build-to-suit property. The total commitment for the loan is $23.8 million, of which $20.4 million had been funded at September 30, 2010.
(f)	Operating and other lease commitments consist primarily of rent obligations under ground leases and our share of future minimum rents payable under an office cost-sharing agreement with certain affiliates for the purpose of leasing office space used for the administration of real estate entities. Amounts under the cost-sharing agreement are allocated among the entities based on gross revenues and are adjusted quarterly. Rental obligations under ground leases are inclusive of noncontrolling interests of approximately $8.8 million.

Amounts in the table above related to our foreign operations are based on the exchange rate of the local currencies at September 30, 2010. At September 30, 2010, we had no material capital lease obligations for which we are the lessee, either individually or in the aggregate.

Together with our advisor and certain of our affiliates, we acquired two related investments in 2007 in which we have a total effective ownership interest of 26% and that we consolidate, as we are the managing member of the ventures. The primary purpose of these investments was to ultimately acquire an interest in the underlying properties and as such was structured to effectively transfer the economics of ownership to us and our affiliates while still monetizing the sales value by transferring the legal ownership in the underlying properties over time. We acquired a venture (the “property venture”) that in turn acquired a 24.7% ownership interest in a limited partnership owning 37 properties throughout Germany. Concurrently, we also acquired a second venture (the “lending venture”) that made a loan (the “note receivable”) to the holder of the remaining 75.3% interests in the limited partnership (the “partner”). Under the terms of the note receivable, the lending venture will receive interest that approximates 75% of all income earned by the limited partnership, less adjustments. In connection with the acquisition, the property venture agreed to an option agreement that gives the property venture the right to purchase, from the partner, an additional 75% interest in the limited partnership no later than December 2010 at a price equal to the principal amount of the note receivable at the time of purchase. Upon exercise of this purchase option, the property venture would own 99.7% of the limited partnership. The property venture has also agreed to a second assignable option agreement to acquire the remaining 0.3% interest in the limited partnership by December 2012. If the property venture does not exercise its option agreements, the partner has option agreements to put its remaining interests in the limited partnership to the property venture during 2014 at a price equal to the principal amount of the note receivable at the time of purchase.

Upon exercise of the purchase option or the put, in order to avoid circular transfers of cash, the seller and the lending venture and the property venture agreed that the lending venture or the seller may elect, upon exercise of the respective purchase option or put option, to have the loan from the lending venture to the seller repaid by a deemed transfer of cash. The deemed transfer shall be in amounts necessary to fully satisfy the seller’s obligations to the lending venture, and the lending venture shall be deemed to have transferred such funds up to us and our affiliates as if we had recontributed them down into the property venture based on our pro rata ownership. Accordingly, at September 30, 2010 (based on the exchange rate of the Euro), the only additional cash required by us to fund the exercise of the purchase option or the put would be the pro rata amounts necessary to redeem the advisor’s interest, the aggregate of which would be approximately $2.3 million, with our share approximating $0.6 million. In addition, our maximum exposure to loss on these ventures was approximately $100.2 million (inclusive of both our existing investment and the amount to fund our future commitment).

Supplemental Financial Measures

In the real estate industry, analysts and investors employ certain supplemental measures that are not defined by GAAP (“non-GAAP measures”) in order to facilitate meaningful comparisons between periods and among peer companies. Additionally, in the formulation of our goals and in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our strategies, we employ the use of supplemental non-GAAP measures, which are uniquely defined by our management. We believe these measures are useful to investors to consider because they may assist them to better understand and measure the performance of our business over time and against similar companies. A description of these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided below.

Funds from Operations — as Adjusted

Funds from Operations, (“FFO”), is a non-GAAP measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as net income or loss (as computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding: depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets, gains or losses from sales of depreciated real estate assets and extraordinary items, however FFO related to assets held for sale, sold or otherwise transferred and included in the results of discontinued operations are to be included. These adjustments also incorporate the pro rata share of unconsolidated subsidiaries. FFO is used by management, investors and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers. Although NAREIT has published this definition of FFO, real estate companies often modify this definition as they seek to provide financial measures that meaningfully reflect their distinctive operations.

CPA^®:16 — Global 9/30/2010 10-Q —32

We modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to include other adjustments to GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, where applicable, such as gains or losses on extinguishment of debt and deconsolidation of subsidiaries, amortization of intangibles, straight-line rents, impairment charges on real estate and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains and losses. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as “Funds from Operations — as Adjusted,” or AFFO, and we employ it as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals and evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies. We exclude these items from GAAP net income as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. As a result, we believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider because it will help them to better understand and measure the performance of our business over time without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations.

FFO and AFFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 are presented below (in thousands):

Adjusted Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Adjusted cash flow from operating activities refers to our cash flow from operating activities (as computed in accordance with GAAP) adjusted, where applicable, primarily to: add cash distributions that we receive from our investments in unconsolidated real estate joint ventures in excess of our equity income; subtract cash distributions that we make to our noncontrolling partners in real estate joint ventures that we consolidate; and eliminate changes in working capital. We hold a number of interests in real estate joint ventures, and we believe that adjusting our GAAP cash flow provided by operating activities to reflect these actual cash receipts and cash payments as well as eliminating the effect of timing differences between the payment of certain liabilities and the receipt of certain receivables in a period other than that in which the item is recognized, may give investors additional information about our actual cash flow that is not incorporated in cash flow from operating activities as defined by GAAP.

We believe that adjusted cash flow from operating activities is a useful supplemental measure for assessing the cash flow generated from our core operations as it gives investors important information about our liquidity that is not provided within cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, and we use this measure when evaluating distributions to shareholders.

Adjusted cash flow from operating activities	$	83,990		$	81,951
Distributions declared	$	61,733		$	60,966

While we believe our FFO, AFFO and Adjusted cash flow from operating activities are important supplemental measures, they should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indication of a company’s operating performance or to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. These non-GAAP measures should be used in conjunction with net income and cash flow from operating activities as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO, Adjusted cash flow from operating activities, or similarly titled measures disclosed by other REITs may not be comparable to our FFO, AFFO and Adjusted cash flow from operating activities measures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and equity prices. The primary risks to which we are exposed are interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk. We are also exposed to market risk as a result of concentrations in certain tenant industries.

We do not generally use derivative instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate exposure and do not use derivative instruments to hedge credit/market risks or for speculative purposes. However, from time to time, we may enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge our foreign currency cash flow exposures

Interest Rate Risk

The value of our real estate and related fixed rate debt obligations is subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates. The value of our real estate is also subject to fluctuations based on local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees, all of which may affect our ability to refinance property-level mortgage debt when balloon payments are scheduled. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates would likely cause the value of our owned assets to decrease. Increases in interest rates may also have an impact on the credit profile of certain tenants.

Although we have not experienced any credit losses on investments in loan participations, in the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and given recent economic conditions, loan defaults could occur and result in our recognition of credit losses, which could adversely affect our liquidity and operating results. Further, such defaults could have an adverse effect on the spreads between interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we attempt to obtain mortgage financing on a long-term, fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, we or our venture partners may obtain variable rate non-recourse mortgage loans and, as a result, may enter into interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements with lenders that effectively convert the variable rate debt service obligations of the loan to a fixed rate. Interest rate swaps are agreements in which a series of interest rate flows are exchanged over a specific period, and interest rate caps limit the effective borrowing rate of variable rate debt obligations while allowing participants to share in downward shifts in interest rates. These interest rate swaps and caps are derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges on the forecasted interest payments on the debt obligation. The notional, or face, amount on which the swaps or caps are based is not exchanged. Our objective in using these derivatives is to limit our exposure to interest rate movements. We estimate that the net fair value of our interest rate swap, which is included in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated financial statements, was a liability of $0.6 million at September 30, 2010. In addition, two unconsolidated ventures in which we have interests ranging from 25% to 27.25% had an interest rate swap and an interest rate cap with a net estimated fair value liability of $14.0 million in the aggregate, representing the total amount attributable to the ventures, not our proportionate share, at September 30, 2010 (Note 7).

CPA^®:16 — Global 9/30/2010 10-Q —34

In connection with the Hellweg 2 transaction, two ventures in which we have a total effective ownership interest of 26%, which we consolidate, obtained participation rights in two interest rate swaps obtained by the lender of the non-recourse mortgage financing on the transaction. The participation rights are deemed to be embedded credit derivatives. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the embedded credit derivatives generated unrealized gains of $0.7 million, inclusive of noncontrolling interest of $0.5 million. Because of current market volatility, we are experiencing significant fluctuation in the unrealized gains or losses generated from these derivatives and expect this trend to continue until market conditions stabilize.

At September 30, 2010, substantially all of our non-recourse debt either bore interest at fixed rates or bore interest at fixed rates that were scheduled to convert to then-prevailing market fixed rates at certain future points during their term. The estimated fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates. The annual interest rates on our fixed rate debt at September 30, 2010 ranged from 4.4% to 7.7%. The annual interest rates on our variable rate debt at September 30, 2010 ranged from 5.2% to 6.7%. Our debt obligations are more fully described in Financial Condition in Item 2 above. The following table presents principal cash flows based upon expected maturity dates of our debt obligations outstanding at September 30, 2010 (in thousands):

	2010		2011		2012		2013		2014		Thereafter		Total		Fair value
Fixed rate debt	$	9,792	$	25,360	$	27,423	$	30,548	$	95,140	$	1,168,619	$	1,356,882	$	1,295,244
Variable rate debt	$	144	$	624	$	715	$	764	$	858	$	35,088	$	38,193	$	36,220

The estimated fair value of our fixed rate debt and our variable rate debt that currently bears interest at fixed rates or has effectively been converted to a fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps or caps is affected by changes in interest rates. A decrease or increase in interest rates of 1% would change the estimated fair value of this debt at September 30, 2010 by an aggregate increase of $72.7 million or an aggregate decrease of $67.9 million, respectively. This debt is generally not subject to short-term fluctuations in interest rates. As more fully described under Financial Condition — Summary of Financing in Item 2 above, a portion of the debt classified as variable rate debt in the table above bore interest at fixed rates at September 30, 2010 but has interest rate reset features that will change the fixed interest rates to then-prevailing market fixed rates at certain points during their term..

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We own investments in the European Union and other foreign countries, and as a result are subject to risk from the effects of exchange rate movements, primarily in the Euro and, to a lesser extent, certain other currencies, which may affect future costs and cash flows. We manage foreign currency exchange rate movements by generally placing both our debt obligation to the lender and the tenant’s rental obligation to us in the same currency. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, Hellweg 2, which leases properties in Germany, contributed 19% of lease revenues, inclusive of noncontrolling interests. We are generally a net receiver of these currencies (we receive more cash than we pay out), and therefore our foreign operations benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar, and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar, relative to the foreign currency. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized net realized foreign currency transaction losses of $0.7 million and net unrealized foreign currency transaction losses of $0.2 million, respectively. These losses are included in Other income and (expenses) in the consolidated financial statements and were primarily due to changes in the value of the foreign currency on accrued interest receivable on notes receivable from consolidated subsidiaries.

We enter into foreign currency forward contracts and collars to hedge certain of our foreign currency cash flow exposures. A foreign currency forward contract is a commitment to deliver a certain amount of currency at a certain price on a specific date in the future. A foreign currency collar consists of a purchased call option to buy and a written put option to sell the foreign currency. By entering into these instruments, we are locked into a future currency exchange rate, which limits our exposure to the movement in foreign currency exchange rates. The net estimated fair value of our foreign currency collars and forwards, which are included in Other assets in the consolidated financial statements, was $0.4 million at September 30, 2010.

We have obtained non-recourse mortgage financing in the local currency. To the extent that currency fluctuations increase or decrease rental revenues as translated to dollars, the change in debt service, as translated to dollars, will partially offset the effect of fluctuations in revenue, and, to some extent, mitigate the risk from changes in foreign currency rates.

Other

We own stock warrants that were granted to us by lessees in connection with structuring initial lease transactions and that are defined as derivative instruments because they are readily convertible to cash or provide for net settlement upon conversion. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are determined using an option pricing model and are recognized currently in earnings as gains or losses. At September 30, 2010, warrants issued to us were classified as derivative instruments and had an aggregate estimated fair value of $1.2 million.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures include our controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in this and other reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. It should be noted that no system of controls can provide complete assurance of achieving a company’s objectives and that future events may impact the effectiveness of a system of controls.

Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after conducting an evaluation, together with members of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at September 30, 2010, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of September 30, 2010 at a reasonable level of assurance.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

For the three months ended September 30, 2010, we issued 318,817 restricted shares of common stock to the advisor as consideration for performance fees. These shares were issued at $9.20 per share, which was our most recently published estimated net asset value per share as approved by our board of directors at the date of issuance. Since none of these transactions were considered to have involved a “public offering” within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, the shares issued were deemed to be exempt from registration. In acquiring our shares, the advisor represented that such interests were being acquired by it for the purposes of investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities:

The following table provides information with respect to repurchases of our common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2010:

(a) Represents shares of our common stock purchased through our redemption plan, pursuant to which we may elect to redeem shares at the request of our shareholders, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The maximum amount of shares purchasable by us in any period depends on a number of factors and is at the discretion of our board of directors. The redemption plan will terminate if and when our shares are listed on a national securities market.
