(1) At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were 1,887 and 1,949 limited partnership units, respectively, that were exchangeable for cash or an equal number of shares of the REIT’s common stock at our option. In 2014, 62 limited partnership units were redeemed for cash. All of these outstanding limited partnership units receive quarterly cash distributions equal to the quarterly dividends paid on our common stock pursuant to the terms of the applicable partnership agreements.
(2) In June 2014, AFORES contributed the majority of its operating properties and the balance of its secured debt to FIBRA. The difference between the amount received and the noncontrolling interest balance related to the properties contributed was $34.6 million, and was adjusted through equity with no gain or loss recognized. See Note 3 for more information on this transaction.
(3) We have a 50% ownership interest in and consolidate the Prologis Brazil Logistics Partners Fund (“Brazil Fund”). The Brazil Fund’s assets are primarily investments in unconsolidated entities of $164.5 million at September 30, 2014. For additional information on our unconsolidated investments, see Note 4.
(4) During the second quarter of 2014, Prologis AMS sold its remaining two operating properties to a third party for net proceeds of $63.9 million.
(5) As discussed above, this was a newly formed co-investment venture in the first quarter of 2014.
(6) At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were 1,767 units that were associated with the limited partners in the Operating Partnership and were exchangeable for cash or into an equal number of shares of the REIT’s common stock at our option. As discussed in Note 9, we issued an additional 113 units in the third quarter of 2014 that are not exchangeable. All of these outstanding limited partnership units receive quarterly cash distributions equal to the quarterly distributions paid on our common stock pursuant to the terms of the partnership agreement.
