NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1. | ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Business and Organization
Acadia Realty Trust (the "Trust") and subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"), is a fully-integrated equity real estate investment trust ("REIT") focused on the acquisition, ownership, management and redevelopment of high-quality retail properties located in key street and urban retail corridors as well as suburban locations within high-barrier-to-entry, densely-populated metropolitan areas in the United States along the East Coast and in Chicago.
All of the Company's assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Acadia Realty Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") and entities in which the Operating Partnership owns an interest. As of March 31, 2014, the Trust controlled approximately 96% of the Operating Partnership as the sole general partner. As the general partner, the Trust is entitled to share, in proportion to its percentage interest, in the cash distributions and profits and losses of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners primarily represent entities or individuals that contributed their interests in certain properties or entities to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common or preferred units of limited partnership interest ("Common OP Units" or "Preferred OP Units") and employees who have been awarded restricted OP units ("LTIP Units") as long-term incentive compensation (Note 13). Limited partners holding Common OP Units are generally entitled to exchange their units on a one-for-one basis for common shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ("Common Shares").
As of March 31, 2014, the Company has ownership interests in 80 properties within its core portfolio, which consist of those properties either wholly owned, or partially owned through joint venture interests, by the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries thereof, not including those properties owned through its opportunity funds ("Core Portfolio"). The Company also has ownership interests in 39 properties within its four opportunity funds, Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund, L.P. ("Fund I"), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund II, LLC ("Fund II"), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund III LLC ("Fund III") and Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund IV LLC ("Fund IV" and together with Funds I, II and III, the "Funds"). The 119 Core Portfolio and Fund properties consist of commercial properties, which are primarily high-quality urban and/or street retail properties, community shopping centers and mixed-use properties with a retail component. Fund I and Fund II also include investments in operating companies through Acadia Mervyn Investors I, LLC ("Mervyns I"), Acadia Mervyn Investors II, LLC ("Mervyns II") and, in certain instances, directly through Fund II, all on a non-recourse basis. These investments comprise and are referred to as the Company's Retailer Controlled Property Initiative ("RCP Venture").
The Operating Partnership is the sole general partner or managing member of the Funds and Mervyns I and II and earns fees or priority distributions for asset management, property management, construction, redevelopment, leasing and legal services. Cash flows from the Funds and RCP Venture are distributed pro-rata to their respective partners and members (including the Operating Partnership) until each receives a certain cumulative return ("Preferred Return"), and the return of all capital contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flow is distributed 20% to the Operating Partnership ("Promote") and 80% to the partners or members (including the Operating Partnership).
Following is a table summarizing the general terms and the Operating Partnership's equity interests in the Funds and Mervyns I and II:

Entity | Formation Date | Operating Partnership Share of Capital | Committed Capital (2) |  | Capital Called as of March 31, 2014 (2) | Equity Interest Held By Operating Partnership | Preferred Return | Capital Returned as of March 31, 2014 (3)
Fund I and Mervyns I (1) | 9/2001 | 22.22 | % | $ | 90.0 |  |  | $ | 86.6 |  | 37.78 | % | 9 | % | $ | 86.6 |
Fund II and Mervyns II (2) | 6/2004 | 20.00 | % | 300.0 |  |  | 300.0 |  | 20.00 | % | 8 | % | 84.5 |
Fund III | 5/2007 | 19.90 | % | 475.0 |  |  | 357.7 |  | 19.90 | % | 6 | % | 196.8 |
Fund IV | 5/2012 | 23.12 | % | 540.6 |  |  | 106.4 |  | 23.12 | % | 6 | % | — |

Notes:
(1) Fund I and Mervyns I have returned all capital and preferred return. The Operating Partnership is now entitled to a Promote on all future cash distributions.
(2) During 2013, a distribution of $47.1 million was made to the Fund II investors, including the Operating Partnership. This amount is subject to recontribution to Fund II until December 2016, if needed to fund the on-going development and construction of existing projects.
(3) Represents the total for the Funds, including the Operating Partnership and noncontrolling interests' shares.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its investments in entities in which the Company is presumed to have control in accordance with the consolidation guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"). Investments in entities for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence but does not have financial or operating control are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company's share of the net earnings (or losses) of entities accounted for under the equity method are included in consolidated net income under the caption, Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Affiliates. Investments in entities for which the Company does not have the ability to exercise any influence are accounted for under the cost method.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014. The information furnished in the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the aforementioned consolidated financial statements for the interim periods. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on February 26, 2014.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2013 financial statements to conform to the 2014 presentation.
Real Estate
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when there is an event or change in circumstances that indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company measures and records impairment losses and reduces the carrying value of properties when indicators of impairment are present and the expected undiscounted cash flows related to those properties are less than their carrying amounts. In cases where the Company does not expect to recover its carrying costs on properties held for use, the Company reduces its carrying cost to fair value, and for properties held-for-sale, the Company reduces its carrying value to the fair value less costs to dispose.

During April 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant and Equipment; Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity." ASU 2014-08 modifies the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under the amendments in ASU 2014-08, the definition of discontinued operation has been modified to only include those disposals of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. ASU 2014-08 shall be applied prospectively for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2014-08 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The Company has adopted this standard on a prospective basis for transactions that have occurred after the adoption date.

2. | EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per Common Share is computed by dividing net income attributable to Common Shareholders by the weighted average Common Shares outstanding. At March 31, 2014, the Company has unvested LTIP Units (Note 13) which provide for non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalent payments. Accordingly, these unvested LTIP Units are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of basic earnings per Common Share pursuant to the two-class method.
Diluted earnings per Common Share reflects the potential dilution of the conversion of obligations and the assumed exercises of securities including the effects of restricted share unit ("Restricted Share Units") and share option awards issued under the Company's Share Incentive Plans (Note 13). The effect of the assumed conversion of 188 Series A Preferred OP Units into 25,067 Common Shares would be dilutive and therefore are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The effect of the assumed conversion of 188 Series A Preferred OP Units into 25,067 Common Shares would be anti-dilutive and are therefore not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is not reflected in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share. The conversion of the convertible notes payable (Note 9) is not included in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share as such conversion, based on the current market price of the Common Shares, would be settled with cash.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the periods indicated:

| Three Months Ended

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) | 2014 |  | 2013

10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The FASB's fair value measurements and disclosure guidance requires the valuation of certain of the Company's financial assets and liabilities, based on a three-level fair value hierarchy. Market value assumptions obtained from sources independent of the Company are observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy, and the Company's own assumptions about market value assumptions are unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
The following table presents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2014:

12. | SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has three reportable segments: Core Portfolio, Funds and Structured Financing. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates property performance primarily based on net operating income before depreciation, amortization and certain nonrecurring items. Investments in the Core Portfolio are typically held long-term. Given the contemplated finite life of the Funds, these investments are typically held for shorter terms. Fees earned by the Company as the general partner/managing member of the Funds are eliminated in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The following tables set forth certain segment information for the Company, reclassified for discontinued operations, as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 and does not include unconsolidated affiliates:

13. | LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION

On February 28, 2014, the Company issued a total of 326,230 LTIP Units and 918 Restricted Share Units to officers of the Company and 10,527 Restricted Share Units to other employees of the Company pursuant to its Amended and Restated 2006 Share Incentive Plan (the "Share Incentive Plan"). Vesting with respect to these awards is generally recognized ratably over the five annual anniversaries following the issuance date. Vesting with respect to 16% of the awards issued to officers is also generally subject to achieving certain Company performance measures. Unvested LTIP Units provide for non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalent payments (Note 2).
On March 31, 2014 , the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with Kenneth Bernstein, Chief Executive Officer, and issued an additional 114,198 LTIP Units which are subject to a five-year vesting period.
These awards were measured at their fair value as if they were vested on the grant date. Fair value was established as the market price of the Company's Common Shares as of the close of trading on the day preceding the grant date. The total value of the above Restricted Share Units and LTIP Units as of their respective grant dates was $11.9 million, of which $0.5 million was recognized as compensation expense in 2013, and $11.4 million will be recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period. Compensation expense of $0.4 million has been recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of income related to these awards for the three months ended March 31, 2014.
Total long-term incentive compensation expense, including the expense related to the above-mentioned plans, was $1.4 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
In 2009, the Company adopted the Long Term Investment Alignment Program (the "Program") pursuant to which the Company may award units primarily to senior executives which would entitle them to receive up to 25% of any future Fund III Promote or Fund IV Promote when and if such Promotes are ultimately realized. The Company has awarded all of the units under the Program related to the Fund III Promote and 10% of the units related to the Fund IV Promote. These units were determined to have no value at issuance or as of March 31, 2014. In accordance with ASC Topic 718, "Compensation - Stock Compensation," compensation relating to these awards will be recorded based on the change in the estimated fair value at each reporting period.
14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
During April 2014, Fund III completed the disposition of its Sheepshead Bay property located in Brooklyn, New York, for a sales price of $20.2 million.
During April 2014, Fund IV completed the acquisition of eight additional properties in its Broughton Street Portfolio for an aggregate purchase price of $13.8 million.
During April 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of the retail condominium units in 152-154 Spring Street, located in Manhattan, New York, for a purchase price of $38.0 million. In consideration for this investment, the Company canceled $38.0 million of a $42.0 million note receivable from the sellers. Simultaneously with this transaction, the Company sold a 10% interest in this investment for $3.8 million.
During April 2014, the Company issued a $13.0 million note receivable collateralized by a property. This loan has an effective interest rate of 12.7% and matures October 3, 2015.
During April 2014, the Company received the full payment on two outstanding non-performing notes receivable as well as all accrued interest. The $10.3 million payment consisted of $6.8 million in principal and $3.5 million in accrued interest. The notes had an aggregate carrying value at March 31, 2014 of $4.8 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion is based on our consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2014 and 2013 and for each of the three months then ended. This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto ("Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements").
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this report constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors are set forth under the heading "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (our "2013 Form 10-K") and include, among others, the following: general economic and business conditions, including the current post-recessionary period, which will, among other things, affect demand for rental space, the availability and creditworthiness of prospective tenants, lease rents and the availability of financing; adverse changes in our real estate markets, including, among other things, competition with other companies; risks of real estate development, acquisition and investment; risks related to our use of leverage; demands placed on our resources due to the growth of our business; risks related to operating through a partnership structure; our limited control over joint venture investments; the risk of loss of key members of management; uninsured losses; REIT distribution requirements and ownership limitations; concentration of ownership by certain institutional investors; governmental actions and initiatives; and environmental/safety requirements. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q.
OVERVIEW
Our primary business objective is to acquire and manage commercial retail properties that will provide cash for distributions to shareholders while also creating the potential for capital appreciation to enhance investor returns. We focus on the following fundamentals to achieve this objective:

• | Own and operate a Core Portfolio of high-quality retail properties located in key street and urban retail corridors as well as suburban locations within high-barrier-to-entry, supply constrained, densely-populated metropolitan areas and create value through accretive redevelopment and re-anchoring activities coupled with the acquisition of high-quality assets that have the long-term potential to outperform the industry asset class.

• | Generate additional external growth through an opportunistic yet disciplined acquisition program through our Funds. We target transactions with high inherent opportunity for the creation of additional value through:

◦ | value-add investments in high-quality urban and/or street retail properties with re-tenanting or repositioning opportunities,

◦ | opportunistic acquisitions of well-located real estate anchored by distressed retailers or by motivated sellers and

◦ | opportunistic purchases of debt which may include restructuring or the opportunity to convert the investment into an equity interest.

These may also include joint ventures with private equity investors for the purpose of making investments in operating retailers with significant embedded value in their real estate assets.

• | Maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet through conservative financial practices while ensuring access to sufficient capital to fund future growth.

As of March 31, 2014, we operated 119 properties, which we own or have an ownership interest in, within our Core Portfolio and Funds. These properties primarily consist of urban/street retail, dense suburban neighborhood and community shopping centers and mixed-use properties with a strong retail component. The properties we operate are located primarily along the East Coast and in Chicago.
22

• | Core Portfolio

◦ | Our Core Portfolio consists of those properties we either 100% own, or partially own in joint ventures, through the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries thereof, not including those properties owned through our Funds. There are 80 properties in our Core Portfolio totaling 5.1 million square feet. As of March 31, 2014, the Core Portfolio physical occupancy was 95.6% and leased occupancy, which includes executed leases for which rent has not yet commenced, was 96.8%.

• | Funds

◦ | Fund I has three properties totaling 0.1 million square feet.

◦ | Fund II has five properties, three of which (representing 0.3 million square feet) are operating, one of which is under construction, and one of which is in the design phase.

◦ | Fund III has 16 properties, 12 of which (representing 1.7 million square feet) are operating and four of which are in various stages of redevelopment.

◦ | Fund IV has 15 properties, nine of which (representing 0.7 million square feet) are operating and six of which are in the design phase.

The majority of our operating income is derived from rental revenues from properties, including recoveries of operating expenses from tenants, offset by operating and overhead expenses. As our RCP Venture invests in operating companies, we consider these investments to be private-equity style, as opposed to solely real estate, investments. Since these are not generally traditional investments in operating rental real estate but investments in operating businesses, the Operating Partnership principally invests in these through a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS").
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe there have been no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies under Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in our 2013 Form 10-K, with the exception of the early adoption of ASU 2014-08.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
A discussion of the significant variances and primary factors contributing thereto within our results of operations are addressed below. Where there were no significant variances from period to period, the information in the following tables is presented without further discussion:

CORE PORTFOLIO PERFORMANCE
The following discussion of net property operating income ("NOI") and rent spreads on new and renewal leases includes the activity from both our consolidated and our pro-rata share of unconsolidated properties within our Core Portfolio. Our Funds invest primarily in properties that typically require significant leasing and redevelopment. Given that the Funds are finite-life investment vehicles, these properties are sold following stabilization. For these reasons, we believe NOI and rent spreads are not meaningful measures for our Fund investments.
NOI represents property revenues less property expenses. We consider NOI and rent spreads on new and renewal leases for our Core Portfolio to be appropriate supplemental disclosures of portfolio operating performance due to their widespread acceptance and use within the REIT investor and analyst communities. NOI and rent spreads on new and renewal leases are presented to assist investors in analyzing our property performance, however, our method of calculating these may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
Net Property Operating Income
NOI is determined as follows:

Core Portfolio NOI |  | $ | 19.2 |  |  | $ | 16.6 |

Note:
(1) Does not include the Operating Partnership's share of NOI from unconsolidated joint ventures within the Funds
Same-store NOI includes properties in our Core Portfolio that we owned for both the current and prior periods presented, but excludes those properties which we acquired, sold or expected to sell, and redeveloped during these periods. We define a redevelopment property as an asset that is being repositioned in its market or undergoing significant renovation. Redevelopment activities involve taking a substantial portion of leasable space temporarily out of service and typically include structural work, demising of existing space and/or facade renovation. The following table summarizes same-store NOI for our Core Portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

Reconciliation of Core Portfolio NOI to Same-Store NOI

Same-Store Operating Expenses |  | 5.9 |  |  | 5.4 |
Same-Store NOI |  | $ | 15.9 |  |  | $ | 15.2 |

The 4.3% increase in Same Store NOI in the Core Portfolio was primarily attributable to contractual rent increases and occupancy gains.
The following table summarizes rent spreads on both a cash basis and straight-line basis for new and renewal leases based on leases executed within our Core Portfolio during the three months ended March 31, 2014. Cash basis represents a comparison of rent most recently paid on the previous lease as compared to the initial rent paid on the new lease. Straight-line basis represents a comparison of rents as adjusted for contractual escalations, abated rent and lease incentives for the same comparable leases.

Weighted average lease term (years) | 9.7 |  |  | 9.7 |

Notes:
(1) The average cost per square foot includes tenant improvement costs, leasing commissions and tenant allowances.
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
Consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition, we define funds from operations ("FFO") as net income attributable to common shareholders (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciated property, plus depreciation and amortization, impairment of depreciable assets and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental disclosure of operating performance for an equity REIT due to its widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. FFO is presented to assist investors in analyzing our performance. It is helpful as it excludes various items included in net income that are not indicative of operating performance, such as gains
26

(losses) from sales of depreciated property, depreciation and amortization, and impairment of depreciable real estate. However, our method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated from operations as defined by GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income for the purpose of evaluating our performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
The reconciliation of net income to FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

| Three Months Ended
| March 31,
(amounts in millions, except per share amounts) | 2014 |  | 2013
Funds From Operations |  |  |
Net income attributable to Common Shareholders | $ | 21.6 |  |  | $ | 9.6 |

Weighted average number of Common Shares and OP Units | 58.4 |  |  | 54.5 |
Diluted funds from operations, per share | $ | 0.32 |  |  | $ | 0.31 |

USES OF LIQUIDITY
Our principal uses of liquidity are (i) distributions to our shareholders and OP unit holders, (ii) investments which include the funding of our capital committed to the Funds and property acquisitions and redevelopment/re-tenanting activities within our Core Portfolio, (iii) distributions to our Fund investors and (iv) debt service and loan repayments.
Distributions
In order to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, we must currently distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our shareholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we paid dividends and distributions on our Common Shares, Common OP Units and LTIP Unit holders totaling $13.4 million, which were funded from the Operating Partnership's share of operating cash flow.
In addition, distributions of $25.4 million were made to noncontrolling interests in Fund III during the three months ended March 31, 2014. Of this, $1.9 million was made from operating cash flows and $23.5 million resulted from financing proceeds.
Distributions to other noncontrolling interests within Fund joint ventures totaled $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, which were primarily the result of refinancing proceeds at Fund IV's Paramus Plaza investment.
Investments
Core Portfolio
27

Through April 30, 2014, we acquired five properties for an aggregate $128.5 million. See Note 4 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of these investments.
Our Core Portfolio redevelopment and re-anchoring programs focus on selecting well-located street retail locations and dense suburban shopping centers and creating significant value through re-tenanting and property redevelopment. During 2013, we initiated the re-anchoring of a former A&P supermarket location in the New York City metropolitan area. Costs associated with this redevelopment aggregated $6.6 million through March 31, 2014. Costs for the remainder of the space are estimated to range between $3.5 million and $5.0 million.
Structured Financings
Through April 30, 2014, we made one note receivable investment for $13.0 million. See Note 6 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for an overview of our notes receivable.
Funds
During the first quarter of 2014, Fund IV entered into a joint venture agreement with an unaffiliated partner to acquire a 50% interest in a portfolio of properties in Savannah, Georgia ("Broughton Street Portfolio"). Fund IV contributed $6.3 million of equity into the joint venture and has also made a loan commitment to the joint venture for up to $29.4 million, $15.3 million of which has been funded through April 30, 2014. See Note 4 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on the acquisitions made as of March 31, 2014.
As part of our Fund strategy, we invest in real estate assets that require significant redevelopment. As of March 31, 2014, we had eight redevelopment projects, one of which is under construction and seven of which are in various stages of development as follows:

(dollars in millions) |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Notes:
TBD - To be determined
(1) Anticipated additional costs are estimated ranges for completing the projects and include costs for tenant improvements and leasing commissions.
Share Repurchase
We have an existing share repurchase program that authorizes management, at its discretion, to repurchase up to $20.0 million of our outstanding Common Shares. The program may be discontinued or extended at any time and there is no assurance that we will purchase the full amount authorized. Under this program we have repurchased 2.1 million Common Shares, none of which were
28

repurchased after December 2001. As of March 31, 2014, management has remaining authority to repurchase up to approximately $7.5 million of our outstanding Common Shares under this program.
SOURCES OF LIQUIDITY
Our principal sources of liquidity include (i) the issuance of both public equity and OP Units, (ii) the issuance of both secured and unsecured debt, (iii) unfunded capital commitments from noncontrolling interests within our Funds III and IV of $94.0 million and $333.8 million, respectively, (iv) future sales of existing properties and (v) cash on hand of $72.8 million as of March 31, 2014 and future cash flows from operating activities.
Issuance of Equity
During April 2012, we filed a shelf registration on Form S-3 providing for offerings of up to a total of $500.0 million of Common Shares, Preferred Shares, debt securities and other securities. As of March 31, 2014, we have remaining capacity under this registration statement to issue up to approximately $81.3 million of these securities.
Through April 30, 2014, we have issued 1.7 million Common Shares under our at-the-market ("ATM") equity program for net proceeds of $44.0 million. See Note 3 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to our ATM equity program.
Fund Capital
During the first three months of 2014, capital contributions received from noncontrolling interests in our Funds totaled $8.7 million. As of March 31, 2014, unfunded capital commitments from noncontrolling interests in our Funds totaled $456.0 million. See Note 1 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to our Fund capital activity.
Asset Sales
During April 2014, we closed on the sale of Fund III's Sheepshead Bay property for $20.2 million.
Structured Financing Repayments
See Note 6 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, for an overview of our notes receivable and preferred equity investments, and for payments received during the three months ended March 31, 2014.
Debt Financings
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we received loan proceeds of $91.7 million, net of repayments on loans that were refinanced, on seven debt financings. In addition, we received $1.5 million of loan proceeds which have been deposited in a restricted cash account available to fund future project construction activities. See Note 8 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the transactions related to mortgage loans, bond financing and credit facilities completed during the three months ended March 31, 2014.
As of March 31, 2014, mortgages, convertible notes and other notes payable aggregated $1,107.0 million, net of unamortized premium of $1.7 million, and the mortgages were collateralized by 39 properties and related tenant leases. Interest rates on our outstanding mortgage indebtedness, convertible notes and other notes payable ranged from 1.00% to 7.25% with maturities that ranged from April 2014 to April 2023. Taking into consideration $178.0 million of notional principal under variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, $790.2 million of the mortgages, convertible notes and other notes payable, or 71.4%, was fixed at a 5.06% weighted average interest rate and $316.8 million, or 28.6% was floating at a 2.11 % weighted average interest rate as of March 31, 2014. There is $74.4 million of debt maturing in 2014 at a weighted average interest rate of 5.47%. Of this amount, $3.7 million represents scheduled annual amortization. As it relates to the remaining maturities in 2014, we may not have sufficient cash on hand to repay such indebtedness, and, therefore, we expect to refinance at least a portion of this indebtedness or select other alternatives based on market conditions as these loans mature.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS
At March 31, 2014, maturities on our mortgages, convertible notes and other notes payable ranged from April 2014 to April 2023. In addition, we have non-cancelable ground leases, with terms expiring between 2019 and 2066, at seven of our shopping centers. We also lease space for our corporate headquarters for a term expiring in 2015. The following table summarizes our debt maturities, obligations under non-cancelable operating leases and construction contracts as of March 31, 2014:

(dollars in millions) | Payments due by period

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have investments in the following joint ventures for the purpose of investing in operating properties. We account for these investments using the equity method of accounting. As such, our financial statements reflect our investment in and our share of income and loss from, but not the individual assets and liabilities of, these joint ventures.
See Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of our unconsolidated investments. Our pro-rata share of debt related to these unconsolidated investments is as follows:

(dollars in millions) | Operating Partnership |  |
Investment | Pro-rata share of mortgage debt | Interest rate at March 31, 2014 | Maturity Date
Lincoln Road (Fund III) | $ | 3.7 |  | 6.14% | August 2014
Crossroads | 28.4 |  | 5.37% | December 2014
Parkway Crossing | 2.4 |  | 2.20% | January 2015
Arundel Plaza | 1.6 |  | 5.60% | April 2015
Promenade at Manassas | 5.7 |  | 1.57% | November 2016
White City Shopping Center | 9.5 |  | 2.60% | December 2017
Lincoln Road (Fund IV) | 18.4 |  | 1.77% | June 2018
Georgetown Portfolio | 9.1 |  | 4.72% | December 2027
Total | $ | 78.8 |  |  |

In addition, we have arranged for the provision of two separate letters of credit in connection with certain leases and investments. As of March 31, 2014, there was no outstanding balance under the letters of credit. If the letters of credit were fully drawn, the maximum amount of our exposure would be $12.5 million.
In addition to our derivative financial instruments, one of our unconsolidated affiliates is a party to two separate interest rate LIBOR swaps with a notional value of $28.5 million, which effectively fix the interest rate at 5.56% and expire in December 2017. Our pro-rata share of the fair value of such affiliates' derivative liabilities totaled $1.5 million at March 31, 2014.

HISTORICAL CASH FLOW
The following table compares the historical cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2014 ("2014") with the cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2013 ("2013"):

| Three Months Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions) | 2014 |  | 2013 |  | Change
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 22.2 |  |  | $ | 4.2 |  |  | $ | 18.0 |
Net cash used in investing activities | (120.3 | ) |  | (98.9 | ) |  | (21.4 | )
Net cash provided by financing activities | 91.7 |  |  | 84.7 |  |  | 7.0 |
Total | $ | (6.4 | ) |  | $ | (10.0 | ) |  | $ | 3.6 |

A discussion of the significant changes in cash flows for 2014 compared to 2013 is as follows:
Operating Activities
The increase of $18.0 million in net cash provided by operating activities primarily resulted from the following:
Items which contributed to an increase in cash from operating activities:

• | Additional cash of $17.2 million used to fund prepaid ground rent for Fund II's City Point project during 2013

• | Additional net operating income from Core and Fund Property acquisitions and redevelopments

Items which contributed to a decrease in cash from operating activities:

• | A reduction in net operating income from Core and Fund Property dispositions

Investing Activities
The increase of $21.4 million in net cash used in investing activities primarily resulted from the following:
Items which contributed to an increase in cash used in investing activities:

• | An increase of $21.6 million used in investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates during 2014 related to our investment in the Broughton Street Portfolio.

• | An increase of $19.6 million used in redevelopment and improvement of properties during 2014 primarily attributable to the redevelopment of Fund II's City Point project.

Items which contributed to a decrease in cash used in investing activities:

• | An increase of $22.0 million in return of capital from unconsolidated affiliates

Financing Activities
The $7.0 million increase in net cash provided by financing activities resulted primarily from the following:
Items which contributed to an increase in cash from financing activities:

• | An additional $51.5 million in mortgage debt proceeds, net of principal payments and funding of a restricted cash account during 2014

• | A decrease of $9.1 million in payments of deferred financing costs during 2014

• | An increase of $8.7 million in capital contributions from noncontrolling interests during 2014

Items which contributed to a decrease in cash from financing activities:

• | An increase of $30.5 million in distributions to noncontrolling interests during 2014

34

• | A decrease of $28.3 million of net proceeds from the issuance of Common Shares, net of costs during 2014

• | An increase of $3.4 million in dividends paid to Common Shareholders during 2014

INFLATION
Our long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on our net income. Such provisions include clauses enabling us to receive percentage rents based on tenants' gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or, in certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. Such escalation clauses are often related to increases in the consumer price index or similar inflation indexes. In addition, many of our leases are for terms of less than ten years, which permits us to seek to increase rents upon re-rental at market rates if current rents are below the then existing market rates. Most of our leases require the tenants to pay their share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Our primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates related to our mortgage debt, convertible notes and other debt. See the discussion under Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for certain quantitative details related to our mortgage debt, convertible notes and other debt.
Currently, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates primarily through the use of fixed-rate debt and interest rate swap and cap agreements. As of March 31, 2014, we had total mortgage debt, convertible notes and other notes payable of $1,107.0 million, net of unamortized premium of $1.7 million, of which $790.2 million or 71.4% was fixed-rate, inclusive of interest rate swaps, and $316.8 million or 28.6% was variable-rate based upon LIBOR plus certain spreads. As of March 31, 2014, we were a party to 11 interest rate swap transactions and four interest rate caps to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $178.0 million and $140.4 million of LIBOR-based variable-rate debt, respectively.
Of our total consolidated outstanding debt, $55.0 million and $259.7 million will become due in 2014 and 2015, respectively. As we intend on refinancing some or all of such debt at the then-existing market interest rates, which may be greater than the current interest rate, our interest expense would increase by approximately $3.1 million annually if the interest rate on the refinanced debt increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, our share of this increase would be $1.0 million.
Interest expense on our consolidated variable-rate debt, net of variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, as of March 31, 2014 would increase by $3.2 million annually if LIBOR increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, our share of this increase would be $2.1 million. We may seek additional variable-rate financing if and when pricing and other commercial and financial terms warrant. As such, we would consider hedging against the interest rate risk related to such additional variable-rate debt through interest rate swaps and protection agreements, or other means.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. In accordance with paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
(b) Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
During July 2013, a lawsuit was brought against us relating to the 2011 flood at Mark Plaza by Kmart Corporation in the Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas, State of Pennsylvania. The lawsuit alleges a breach of contract and negligence relating to landlord responsibility for damages incurred by the tenant as a result of the flood. The tenant is seeking damages in excess of $9.0 million. We believe that this lawsuit is without merit.
In December 2013, in connection with Phase 2 of the City Point Project, Albee Development LLC ("Albee") and a non-affiliated construction manager were served with a Summons With Notice as well as a Demand for Arbitration by Casino Development Group, Inc. ("Casino"), the former contractor responsible for the excavation and concrete work at the City Point Project. Albee terminated the contract with Casino for cause prior to completion of the contract. The plaintiff is seeking approximately $8.5 million. Albee believes that it has meritorious defenses to, and is prepared to vigorously defend itself against the claims. Presently, the parties are before the New York State Supreme Court in Kings County on procedural matters; Albee's position is that Casino waived any right to arbitrate. As the case is in the beginning stage of litigation, the outcome of these claims cannot be estimated at this time.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
The most significant risk factors applicable to us are described in Item 1A. of our 2013 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to those previously-disclosed risk factors.
