DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE
Certain information contained in the Definitive Proxy Statement for Lexington Realty Trust's Annual Meeting of Shareholders, to be held on May 15, 2018, is incorporated by reference in this Annual Report on Form 10-K in response to Part III, Items 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14, which will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission not later than 120 days after the end of the fiscal year covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report, which we refer to as this Annual Report, combines the Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 of (1) Lexington Realty Trust and its subsidiaries and (2) Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. and its subsidiaries. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, (1) the “Company,” the “Trust,” “Lexington,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer collectively to Lexington Realty Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries, and (2) “LCIF” and the “Partnership” refer to Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries. All of the Company's and LCIF's interests in properties are held, and all property operating activities are conducted, through special purpose entities, which we refer to as property owner subsidiaries or lender subsidiaries, which are separate and distinct legal entities, but in some instances are consolidated for financial statement purposes and/or disregarded for income tax purposes.
The Company is the sole equity owner of (1) Lex GP-1 Trust, or Lex GP, a Delaware statutory trust, and (2) Lex LP-1 Trust, or Lex LP, a Delaware statutory trust. The Company, through Lex GP and Lex LP, holds, as of December 31, 2017, approximately 96.0% of LCIF's outstanding units of limited partner interest, which we refer to as OP units. The remaining OP units are beneficially owned by E. Robert Roskind, Chairman of the Trust, and certain non-affiliated investors. As the sole equity owner of LCIF’s general partner, the Company has the ability to control all of LCIF’s day-to-day operations subject to the terms of LCIF’s partnership agreement.
OP units not owned by Lexington are accounted for as partners’ capital in LCIF’s consolidated financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in the Trust’s consolidated financial statements.
We believe it is important to understand the differences between the Trust and LCIF in the context of how the Trust and LCIF operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. The Trust’s and LCIF’s businesses are substantially the same; except that LCIF is dependent on the Trust for management of LCIF’s operations and future investments, as LCIF does not have any employees or executive officers or a board of directors.
The Trust also invests in assets and conducts business directly and through its other subsidiaries. The Trust allocates investments to itself and its subsidiaries, including LCIF, as it deems appropriate and in accordance with certain obligations under LCIF’s partnership agreement with respect to allocations of non-recourse liabilities. The Trust and LCIF are co-borrowers under the Trust’s unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans. LCIF is a guarantor of the Trust’s publicly-traded debt securities.
We believe combining the Annual Reports on Form 10-K of the Trust and LCIF into this single Annual Report results in the following benefits:

• | combined reports better reflect how management and the analyst community view the business as a single operating unit;

• | combined reports enhance investor understanding of the Trust and LCIF by enabling them to view the business as a whole and in the same manner as management;

• | combined reports are more efficient for the Trust and LCIF to prepare, resulting in savings in time, effort and expense; and

• | combined reports are more efficient for investors to review, as they reduce duplicative disclosure and providing a single document for their review.

To help investors understand the differences between the Trust and LCIF, this Annual Report separately presents the following for each of the Trust and LCIF: (1) Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchase and Equity Securities, (2) Selected Financial Data, (3) the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, (4) Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, (5) Controls and Procedures, and (6) Exhibit 31 and Exhibit 32 certifications and certain other exhibits. In addition, certain disclosures in other sections including “Risk Factors” are separated by entity to the extent the discussions relate to just the Trust or LCIF.
When we use the term “REIT,” we mean real estate investment trust. All references to 2017, 2016 and 2015 refer to our fiscal years ended, or the dates, as the context requires, December 31, 2017, December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
When we use the term “GAAP,” we mean United States generally accepted accounting principles in effect from time to time.

PART I.
Item 1. Business
General
We are a Maryland real estate investment trust, qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, that owns a diversified portfolio of equity investments in single-tenant commercial properties. A majority of these properties are subject to net or similar leases, where the tenant bears all or substantially all of the costs, including cost increases, for real estate taxes, utilities, insurance and ordinary repairs. However, certain leases provide that the landlord is responsible for certain operating expenses.
As of December 31, 2017, we had equity ownership interests in approximately 175 consolidated real estate properties, located in 37 states and containing an aggregate of approximately 48.6 million square feet of space, approximately 98.9% of which was leased. In 2017, 2016 and 2015, no tenant/guarantor represented greater than 10% of our annual base rental revenue.
In addition to our shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.0001 per share, classified as common stock, which we refer to as common shares, as of December 31, 2017, we had one outstanding class of beneficial interest classified as preferred stock, or preferred shares, our 6.50% Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, or our Series C Preferred Shares. Our common shares and Series C Preferred Shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbols “LXP” and “LXPPRC”, respectively.
We elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the Code, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 1993. We intend to continue to qualify as a REIT. If we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal corporate income taxes on our net taxable income that is currently distributed to our common shareholders. We conduct certain taxable activities through our taxable REIT subsidiary, Lexington Realty Advisors, Inc.
History
The Partnership was formed as a limited partnership on March 14, 1986 under the laws of the state of Delaware to invest in existing real estate properties net leased to corporations or other entities. The Partnership commenced a public offering of OP units in July 1986, which was completed in March 1987.
Our predecessor, Lexington Corporate Properties, Inc., was organized in the state of Delaware in October 1993 upon the combination of LCIF and Lepercq Corporate Income Fund II L.P., which we refer to as LCIF II and which was also formed to acquire net-lease real estate assets providing current income. Our predecessor was merged into Lexington Corporate Properties Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust, on December 31, 1997. On December 31, 2006, Lexington Corporate Properties Trust changed its name to Lexington Realty Trust and was the successor in a merger with Newkirk Realty Trust, or Newkirk, which we refer to as the Newkirk Merger. All of Newkirk's operations were conducted, and all of its assets were held, through its master limited partnership, subsequently named The Lexington Master Limited Partnership, which we refer to as the MLP. As of December 31, 2008, the MLP was merged with and into us. On December 30, 2013, LCIF II was merged with and into LCIF, with LCIF as the surviving entity.
Lexington is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT, as a portion of its business is conducted through its operating partnership subsidiary, LCIF. Lexington is party to a funding agreement with LCIF under which Lexington may be required to fund distributions made on account of OP units. The UPREIT structure enables us to acquire properties through an operating partnership by issuing OP units to a seller of property, as a form of consideration in exchange for the property. The outstanding OP units not held by Lexington are generally redeemable for our common shares on a one OP unit for approximately 1.13 common shares basis, or, at our election in certain instances, cash. As of December 31, 2017, there were approximately 3.2 million OP units outstanding, other than OP units held by Lexington, which were convertible into approximately 3.6 million common shares, assuming redemptions are satisfied entirely with common shares.

Investment and Strategy
General. Our current business strategy is focused on enhancing our cash flow stability, growing our revenue, reducing lease rollover risk and maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet to allow us to act on opportunities as they arise. We seek to acquire general purpose, single-tenant net-leased industrial and office assets in well-located and growing markets or which are critical to the tenant's business.
We implement our strategy by (1) recycling capital in compliance with regulatory and contractual requirements, (2) refinancing or repurchasing outstanding indebtedness when advisable, (3) using fixed-rate non-recourse secured indebtedness to finance certain assets, (4) effecting strategic transactions, portfolio and individual property acquisitions and dispositions, (5) expanding existing properties, (6) executing new leases with tenants, (7) extending lease maturities in advance of or at expiration and (8) exploring new business lines and operating platforms.
Portfolio diversification is central to our investment strategy as we seek to create and maintain an asset base that provides steady, predictable and growing cash flows while being insulated against rising property operating expenses, regional recessions, industry-specific downturns and fluctuations in property values and market rent levels. Regardless of capital market and economic conditions, we intend to stay focused on (1) enhancing operating results, (2) improving portfolio quality and reducing risks associated with lease rollover, (3) mitigating risks relating to interest rates and real estate cycles and (4) implementing strategies where our management skills and real estate expertise can add value.
Investments. When opportunities arise, we intend to continue to make investments in single-tenant assets that we believe will generate favorable returns. In recent years, we have favored the acquisition of industrial assets over office assets. We seek to grow our portfolio primarily by (1) engaging in, or providing funds to, or partnering with, developers who are engaged in, build-to-suit projects for single-tenant corporate users, (2) providing capital to corporations by buying properties and leasing them back to the sellers under net or similar leases and (3) acquiring properties already subject to net or similar leases, including through strategic transactions such as portfolio acquisitions and mergers with other real estate companies.
Our management has established a broad network of contacts to source investments, including brokers, developers and major corporate tenants. We believe that our geographical diversification, acquisition experience and balance sheet strength will allow us to continue to compete effectively for such investments.
Prior to effecting any investment, our underwriting includes analyzing the (1) property's design, construction quality, efficiency, functionality and location with respect to the immediate sub-market, city and region, (2) lease integrity with respect to term, rental rate increases, tenant credit, corporate guarantees and property maintenance provisions, (3) present and anticipated conditions in the local real estate market and (4) prospects for selling or re-leasing the property on favorable terms in the event of a vacancy. To the extent of information publicly available or made available to us, we also evaluate each potential tenant's financial strength, growth prospects and competitive position within its respective industry and each property's strategic location and function within a tenant's operations or distribution systems. We believe that our comprehensive underwriting process is critical to the assessment of long-term profitability of any investment by us.
Competition
There are numerous commercial developers, real estate companies, financial institutions, such as banks and insurance companies, and other investors with greater financial or other resources that compete with us in seeking properties for acquisition and tenants who will lease space in these properties. Our competitors include other REITs, pension funds, banks, private companies and individuals.
Internal Growth and Effectively Managing Assets
Tenant Relations and Lease Compliance. We endeavor to maintain close contact with the tenants in the properties in which we have an interest in order to understand their financial strength, operations and future real estate needs. We monitor the financial, property maintenance and other lease obligations of the tenants in properties in which we have an interest, through a variety of means, including periodic reviews of financial statements that we have access to and physical inspections of the properties.
Extending Lease Maturities. Our property owner subsidiaries seek to extend tenant leases in advance of the lease expiration in order for us to maintain a balanced lease rollover schedule and high occupancy levels.
Revenue Enhancing Property Expansions. Our property owner subsidiaries undertake expansions of properties based on lease requirements, tenant requirements or marketing opportunities. We believe that selective property expansions can provide attractive rates of return.

Table of Contents
Capital Recycling. Subject to regulatory and contractual requirements, we generally sell our interests in properties when we believe that the return realized from selling a property will exceed the expected return from continuing to hold such property and/or there is a better use of the capital to be received upon sale. We also focus our disposition efforts primarily on suburban office and non-core assets such as vacant, multi-tenant, retail and short-term leased assets and assets that are the only asset we own in a geographic location.
Occasionally, we provide seller financing as a means of efficiently disposing of an asset. As a result, if a buyer defaults under the seller financing, we will once again be the owner of the underlying asset.
Conversion to Multi-Tenant. If one of our property owner subsidiaries is unable to renew a single-tenant lease or if it is unable to find a replacement single tenant, we either attempt to sell our interest in the property or the property owner subsidiary may seek to market the property for multi-tenant use. When appropriate, we seek to sell our interests in multi-tenant properties.
Property Management. From time to time, our property owner subsidiaries use property managers to manage certain properties. Our property management joint venture with an unaffiliated third party manages substantially all of these properties. We believe this joint venture provides us with (1) better management of our assets, (2) better tenant relationships, (3) revenue-enhancing opportunities and (4) cost efficiencies.
Financing Strategy
General. Since becoming a public company, our principal sources of financing have been the public and private equity and debt markets, including property-specific debt, revolving loans, corporate level term loans, corporate bonds, issuance of common and preferred equity, issuance of OP units and undistributed cash flows.
Property-Specific Debt. Our property owner subsidiaries seek non-recourse secured debt on a limited basis to mitigate tenant credit risk and when credit tenant lease financing is available. Credit tenant lease financing allows us to significantly or fully leverage the rental stream from an investment at, what we believe are, attractive rates.
Corporate Level Borrowings. We also use corporate level borrowings, such as revolving loans, term loans, and debt offerings. We expect to continue to finance more of our operations with such corporate level borrowings as (1) non-recourse secured debt matures and (2) such corporate level borrowings are available on favorable terms.
Balance Sheet Management. In recent years, we have reduced our weighted-average interest rate through the retirement of higher rate non-recourse mortgage debt with proceeds from recourse corporate level borrowings. Our objective is to continually strengthen our balance sheet to provide financial flexibility.
Common Share Issuances
From time to time, we raise capital by issuing common shares through (1) at-the-market offering programs, (2) underwritten public offerings, (3) block trades and (4) our direct share purchase plan. The proceeds from our common share offerings are generally used for working capital, including to fund investments and to retire indebtedness.
Share Repurchases
We have made, and may continue to make, repurchases of our common and preferred shares in individual transactions when we believe it is advantageous to do so, including when the discount to our net asset value or the liquidation preference, as the case may be, is attractive. During 2015, our Board of Trustees authorized a 10.0 million common share repurchase program of which approximately 6.6 million common shares remained available for repurchase as of December 31, 2017. There were no share repurchases in 2017.
Advisory Contracts
We provide, and have provided, advisory services to various net-lease investors, including institutional investors and high net-worth individuals.
Environmental Matters
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, an owner of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under such property as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Set forth below are material factors that may adversely affect our business and operations.
Risks Related to Our Business
We are subject to risks involving our leases and tenants.
We focus our acquisition activities on real estate properties that are net leased to single tenants, and certain of our tenants and/or their guarantors constitute a significant percentage of our base rental revenues. Therefore, the financial failure of, or other default by, a single tenant under its lease is likely to cause a significant or complete reduction in the operating cash flow generated by the property leased to that tenant and might decrease the value of that property and result in a non-cash impairment charge. If the tenant represents a significant portion of our base rental revenues, the impact on our financial position may be material. Further, in any such event, our property owner subsidiary will be responsible for 100% of the operating costs following a vacancy at a single-tenant building. Upon the expiration or other termination of leases that are currently in place, the property owner subsidiary may not be able to re-lease the vacant property at all or at a comparable lease rate without incurring additional expenditures in connection with the re-leasing, which may be material in amount.
Under current bankruptcy law, a tenant can generally assume or reject a lease within a certain number of days of filing its bankruptcy petition. If a tenant rejects the lease, a landlord's damages, subject to availability of funds from the bankruptcy estate, are generally limited to the greater of (1) one year's rent and (2) the rent for 15% of the remaining term of the lease, not to exceed three years.
Certain of our leases may permit tenants to terminate the leases to which they are a party.
Certain of our leases contain tenant termination options, including economic discontinuance options, that permit the tenants to terminate their leases. While these termination options generally require a termination payment by the tenants, in most cases, the termination payments are less than the total remaining expected rental revenue. The termination of a lease by a tenant may impair the value of the property. In addition, we will be responsible for 100% of the operating costs following the termination by any such tenant and subsequent vacating of the property, and we will incur re-leasing costs.
Our ability to fully control the maintenance of our net-leased properties may be limited.
The tenants of our net-leased properties are responsible for maintenance and other day-to-day management of the properties. If a property is not adequately maintained in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease, we may incur expenses for deferred maintenance or other liabilities once the property is no longer leased. We generally visit our properties on an annual basis, but these visits are not comprehensive inspections and deferred maintenance items may go unnoticed. While our leases generally provide for recourse against the tenant in these instances, a bankrupt or financially-troubled tenant may be more likely to defer maintenance, and it may be more difficult to enforce remedies against such a tenant.
Our tenants' ability to successfully operate their businesses may affect their ability to pay rent and maintain their leased property.
To the extent that tenants are unable to operate the property on a financially successful basis, their ability to pay rent to us may be adversely affected. Although we endeavor to monitor, on an ongoing basis, compliance by tenants with their lease obligations and other factors which could affect the financial performance of our properties, such monitoring may not always ascertain or forestall deterioration, either in the condition or value of a property or in the financial circumstances of a tenant.
You should not rely on the credit ratings of our tenants.
Some of our tenants, guarantors and/or their parent or sponsor entities are rated by certain rating agencies. In certain instances, we may disclose the credit ratings of our tenants or their parent or sponsor entities even though those parent or sponsor entities are not liable for the obligations of the tenant or guarantor under the lease. Any such credit ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by these credit rating agencies and we cannot assure you that any such ratings will not be changed or withdrawn by these rating agencies in the future if, in their judgment, circumstances warrant. If these rating agencies assign a lower-than-expected rating or reduce or withdraw, or indicate that they may reduce or withdraw the credit rating of a tenant, guarantor or its parent entity, the value of our investment in any properties leased by such tenant could significantly decline.

Our assets may be subject to impairment charges.
We periodically evaluate our real estate investments and other assets for impairment indicators. The judgment regarding the existence of impairment indicators is based on GAAP, which include a variety of factors such as market conditions, the status of significant leases, the financial condition of major tenants and other factors that could affect the cash flow or value of an investment. Based on this evaluation, we may from time to time take non-cash impairment charges, which could affect the implementation of our current business strategy. These impairments could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Furthermore, we may take an impairment charge on a property subject to a non-recourse secured mortgage which reduces the book value of such property to its fair value, which may be below the balance of the mortgage on our balance sheet. Upon foreclosure or other disposition, we may be required to recognize a gain on debt satisfaction equal to the difference between the fair value of the property and the balance of the mortgage.
Our real estate development activities are subject to additional risks.
In 2017, we entered into a joint venture that acquired a developable parcel of land. While the joint venture only intends to develop pre-leased properties, development activities generally require various government and other approvals, which the joint venture may not receive. In addition, the joint venture is subject to the following risks associated with development activities:

• | Unsuccessful development opportunities could cause us to incur direct expenses;

• | Construction costs of a project may exceed original estimates, possibly making the project less profitable than originally estimated or unprofitable;

• | Time required to complete the construction of a project or to lease up the completed project may be greater than originally anticipated, thereby adversely affecting our cash flow and liquidity;

• | Occupancy rates and rents of a completed project may not be sufficient to make the project profitable; and

• | Favorable financing sources to fund the joint venture's development activities may not be available.

A tenant’s bankruptcy proceeding may result in the re-characterization of related sale-leaseback transactions or in the restructuring of the tenant's payment obligations to us, either of which could adversely affect our financial condition.
We have entered and may continue to enter into sale-leaseback transactions, whereby we purchase a property and then lease the same property back to the person from whom we purchased it. In the event of the bankruptcy of a tenant, a transaction structured as a sale-leaseback may be re-characterized as either a financing or a joint venture. As a result of the foregoing, the re-characterization of a sale-leaseback transaction could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flow and the amount available for distributions to our shareholders.
If the sale-leaseback were re-characterized as a financing, we might not be considered the owner of the property, and as a result would have the status of a creditor in relation to the tenant. In that event, we would no longer have the right to sell or encumber our ownership interest in the property. Instead, we would have a claim against the tenant for the amounts owed under the lease, with the claim arguably secured by the property. The tenant/debtor might have the ability to propose a plan restructuring the term, interest rate and amortization schedule of its outstanding balance. If confirmed by the bankruptcy court, we could be bound by the new terms and prevented from foreclosing our lien on the property. If the sale-leaseback were re-characterized as a joint venture, our tenant and we could be treated as co-venturers with regard to the property. As a result, we could be held liable, under some circumstances, for debts incurred by the tenant relating to the property.

Table of Contents
A significant portion of our leases are long-term and do not have fair market rental rate adjustments, which could negatively impact our income and reduce the amount of funds available to make distributions to shareholders.
A significant portion of our rental income comes from long-term net leases, which generally provide the tenant greater discretion in using the leased property than ordinary property leases, such as the right to freely sublease the property, to make alterations in the leased premises and to terminate the lease prior to its expiration under specified circumstances. Furthermore, net leases typically have longer lease terms and, thus, there is an increased risk that contractual rental increases in future years will fail to result in fair market rental rates during those years. If we do not accurately judge the potential for increases in market rental rates when negotiating these long-term leases or if we are unable to obtain any increases in rental rates over the terms of our leases, significant increases in future property operating costs, to the extent not covered under the net leases could result in us receiving less than fair value from these leases. As a result, our income and distributions to our shareholders could be lower than they would otherwise be if we did not engage in long-term net leases.
In addition, increases in interest rates may also negatively impact the value of our properties that are subject to long-term leases. While a significant number of our net leases provide for annual escalations in the rental rate, the increase in interest rates may outpace the annual escalations.
Our interests in loans receivable, if any, are subject to delinquency, foreclosure and loss.
Our interests in loans receivable, if any, are generally non-recourse and secured by real estate properties owned by borrowers that were unable to obtain similar financing from a commercial bank. These loans are subject to many risks including delinquency. The ability of a borrower to repay a loan secured by a real estate property is typically and primarily dependent upon the successful operation of such property rather than upon the existence of independent income or assets of the borrower. If a borrower were to default on a loan, it is possible that we would not recover the full value of the loan as the collateral may be non-performing.
We face uncertainties relating to lease renewals and re-letting of space.
Upon the expiration of current leases for space located in properties in which we have an interest, our property owner subsidiaries may not be able to re-let all or a portion of such space, or the terms of re-letting (including the cost of concessions to tenants and leasing commissions) may be less favorable than current lease terms or market rates. If our property owner subsidiaries are unable to promptly re-let all or a substantial portion of the space located in their respective properties, or if the rental rates a property owner subsidiary receives upon re-letting are significantly lower than current rates, our earnings and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make expected distributions to our shareholders may be adversely affected due to the resulting reduction in rent receipts and increase in property operating costs. There can be no assurance that our property owner subsidiaries will be able to retain tenants in any of our properties upon the expiration of leases.
We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt service obligations and to pay distributions on our common and preferred shares, and LCIF may not meet its debt service or distribution obligations.
Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness, to make distributions on our common and preferred shares and to fund our operations, working capital and capital expenditures, and LCIF's ability to fulfill its similar obligations depends on our ability to generate cash in the future. To a certain extent, our cash flow is subject to general economic, industry, financial, competitive, operating, legislative, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future sources of cash will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay amounts due on our indebtedness or to make distributions on our common and preferred shares and fund our other liquidity needs or enable LCIF to fulfill its similar obligations. Additionally, if we incur additional indebtedness in connection with future acquisitions or development projects or for any other purpose, our debt service obligations could increase.
We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness or obtain additional financing will depend on, among other things, our financial condition and market conditions at the time and restrictions in the agreements governing our indebtedness.
As a result, we may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we do not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and additional borrowings or refinancings or proceeds of asset sales or other sources of cash are not available to us, we may not have sufficient cash to enable us to meet all of our obligations. Accordingly, if we cannot service our indebtedness, we may have to take actions such as seeking additional equity, or delaying strategic acquisitions and alliances or capital expenditures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our operations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to effect any of these actions on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

Our inability to carry out our growth strategy could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Our growth strategy is based on the acquisition and development of additional properties and related assets. In the context of our business plan, “development” generally means an expansion or renovation of an existing property or the financing and/or acquisition of a newly constructed build-to-suit property. For newly constructed build-to-suit properties, we may (1) provide a developer with either a combination of financing for construction of a build-to-suit property or a commitment to acquire a property upon completion of construction of a build-to-suit property and commencement of rent from the tenant, (2) acquire a property subject to a lease and engage a developer to complete construction of a build-to-suit property as required by the lease, or (3) partner with a developer to acquire an undeveloped parcel of land and pursue build-to-suit opportunities.
Our plan to grow through the acquisition and development of new properties could be adversely affected by trends in the real estate and financing businesses. The consummation of any future acquisitions will be subject to satisfactory completion of an extensive valuation analysis and due diligence review and to the negotiation of definitive documentation. Our ability to implement our strategy may be impeded because we may have difficulty finding new properties and investments at attractive prices that meet our investment criteria, negotiating with new or existing tenants or securing acceptable financing. If we are unable to carry out our strategy, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Acquisitions of additional properties entail the risk that investments will fail to perform in accordance with expectations, including operating and leasing expectations.
Some of our acquisitions and developments may be financed using the proceeds of periodic equity or debt offerings, lines of credit or other forms of secured or unsecured financing that may result in a risk that permanent financing for newly acquired projects might not be available or would be available only on disadvantageous terms. If permanent debt or equity financing is not available on acceptable terms to refinance acquisitions undertaken without permanent financing, further acquisitions may be curtailed, or cash available to satisfy our debt service obligations and distributions to shareholders may be adversely affected.
Our acquisition and disposition activity may lead to dilution.
Our asset strategy is to increase our ratio of revenue from industrial assets to office assets. We believe this strategy will lessen capital expenditures over time and mitigate revenue reductions on renewals and re-tenanting. To implement this strategy, we have been selling certain office assets, which generally have higher capitalization rates, and buying industrial properties, which, in the current competitive market, generally have lower capitalization rates. This strategy impacts growth in the short-term period. There can be no assurance that the implementation of our strategy will lead to improved results or that we will be able to execute our strategy as contemplated or on terms acceptable to us.
From time to time, we announce potential lease, financing, disposition or investment commitments or transactions, which may not be consummated on the terms we announce or at all.
We publicly communicate potential lease, financing, disposition and investment commitments or transactions in our public documents filed with or furnished to the SEC and press releases and on conference calls with analysts and investors. We can give no assurances that any of these commitments or transactions will be consummated to our expectations or at all.
Acquisition activities may not produce expected results and may be affected by outside factors.
Acquisitions of commercial properties entail certain risks, such as (1) underwriting assumptions, including occupancy, rental rates and expenses, may differ from estimates, (2) the properties may become subject to environmental liabilities that we were unaware of at the time we acquired the property despite any environmental testing, (3) we may have difficulty obtaining financing on acceptable terms or paying the operating expenses and debt service associated with acquired properties prior to sufficient occupancy and (4) projected exit strategies may not come to fruition due to a variety of factors such as market conditions and/or tenant credit conditions at the time of dispositions.
We may not be successful in identifying suitable real estate properties or other assets that meet our acquisition criteria. We may also fail to complete acquisitions or investments on satisfactory terms. Failure to identify or complete acquisitions could slow our growth, which could, in turn, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Table of Contents
We face certain risks associated with our build-to-suit activities.
From time to time, we engage in, or provide capital to developers who are engaged in, build-to-suit activities. We face uncertainties associated with a developer's performance and timely completion of a project, including the performance or timely completion by contractors and subcontractors. A developer's performance may be affected or delayed by their own actions or conditions beyond the developer's control. If a developer, contractor or subcontractor fails to perform, we may resort to legal action to compel performance, remove the developer or rescind the purchase or construction contract. Legal action may cause further delays and our costs may not be reimbursed.
We may incur additional risks when we make periodic progress payments or other advances to developers before completion of construction. These and other factors can result in increased costs of a project or loss of our investment. We also rely on third-party construction managers and/or engineers to monitor the construction activities.
Upon completion of construction, we are generally responsible to the tenant for any warranty claims. While we generally have a warranty from the developer or general contractor that was responsible for construction backstopping our warranty obligations to the tenant, we are subject to the risk of enforcement of such developer or general contractor warranty.
We rely on rental income and expense projections and estimates of the fair market value of a property upon completion of construction when agreeing upon a purchase price at the time we acquire the property, which may be up to two years prior to the estimated date of completion. If our projections are inaccurate or markets change, we may pay more than the fair value of a property.
In addition, the rental rates for a new build-to-suit project are generally derived from the cost to construct the project and may not equal a fair market lease rate for older existing properties in the same market.
Our multi-tenant properties expose us to additional risks.
Our multi-tenant properties involve risks not typically encountered in real estate properties which are operated by or for a single tenant. The ownership of multi-tenant properties could expose us to the risk that a sufficient number of suitable tenants may not be found to enable the property to operate profitably and provide a return to us. This risk may be compounded by the failure of existing tenants to satisfy their obligations due to various factors. These risks, in turn, could cause a material adverse impact to our results of operations and business.
Multi-tenant properties are also subject to tenant turnover and fluctuation in occupancy rates, which could affect our operating results. Furthermore, multi-tenant properties expose us to the risk of potential "CAM slippage," which may occur when the actual cost of taxes, insurance and maintenance at the property exceeds the operating expenses paid by tenants and/or the amounts budgeted.
We face possible liability relating to environmental matters.
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, as an owner of real property, our property owner subsidiaries may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under the properties in which we have an interest as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. These liabilities may include government fines and penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. These laws may impose liability without regard to whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the presence or disposal of those substances. This liability may be imposed on our property owner subsidiaries in connection with the activities of an operator of, or tenant at, the property. The cost of any required remediation, removal, fines or personal or property damages, and our liability therefore, could be significant and could exceed the value of the property and/or our aggregate assets. In addition, the presence of those substances, or the failure to properly dispose of or remove those substances, may adversely affect a property owner subsidiary's ability to sell or rent that property or to borrow using that property as collateral, which, in turn, would reduce our revenues and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make distributions.
A property can also be adversely affected either through physical contamination or by virtue of an adverse effect upon value attributable to the migration of hazardous or toxic substances, or other contaminants that have or may have emanated from other properties. Although the tenants of the properties in which we have an interest are primarily responsible for any environmental damages and claims related to the leased premises, in the event of the bankruptcy or inability of any of the tenants of the properties in which we have an interest to satisfy any obligations with respect to the property leased to that tenant, our property owner subsidiary may be required to satisfy such obligations. In addition, we may be held directly liable for any such damages or claims irrespective of the provisions of any lease.

Table of Contents
From time to time, in connection with the conduct of our business, our property owner subsidiaries authorize the preparation of Phase I environmental reports and, when recommended, Phase II environmental reports, with respect to their properties. There can be no assurance that these environmental reports will reveal all environmental conditions at the properties in which we have an interest or that the following will not expose us to material liability in the future:
•the discovery of previously unknown environmental conditions;
•changes in law;
•activities of tenants; or
•activities relating to properties in the vicinity of the properties in which we have an interest.
Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing on properties or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise adversely affect the operations of the tenants of the properties in which we have an interest, which could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.
From time to time we are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business.
Legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business require time and effort. The outcomes of legal proceedings are subject to significant uncertainty. In the event that we are unsuccessful defending or prosecuting these proceedings, as applicable, we may incur a judgment or fail to realize an award of damages that could have an adverse effect on our financial condition.
Uninsured losses or a loss in excess of insured limits could adversely affect our financial condition.
We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage and rent loss insurance on certain of the properties in which we have an interest, with policy specifications and insured limits that we believe are customary for similar properties. However, with respect to those properties where the leases do not provide for abatement of rent under any circumstances, we generally do not maintain rent loss insurance. In addition, certain of our leases require the tenant to maintain all insurance on the property, and the failure of the tenant to maintain the proper insurance could adversely impact our investment in a property in the event of a loss. Furthermore, there are certain types of losses, such as losses resulting from wars, terrorism or certain acts of God, that generally are not insured because they are either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we could lose capital invested in a property as well as the anticipated future revenues from a property, while remaining obligated for any mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations related to the property. Any loss of these types could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Future terrorist attacks, military conflicts and unrest in various parts of the world could have a material adverse effect on general economic conditions, consumer confidence and market liquidity.
Terrorist attacks, ongoing and future military conflicts and the continued unrest in various parts of the world may affect commodity prices and interest rates, among other things. An increase in interest rates may increase our costs of borrowing, leading to a reduction in our earnings. Instability in the price of oil will also cause fluctuations in our operating costs, which may not be reimbursed by our tenants. Also, terrorist acts could result in significant damages to, or loss of, our properties or the value thereof.
We and the tenants of the properties in which we have an interest may be unable to obtain adequate insurance coverage on acceptable economic terms for losses resulting from acts of terrorism. Our lenders may require that we carry terrorism insurance even if we do not believe this insurance is necessary or cost effective. We may also be prohibited under the applicable lease from passing all or a portion of the cost of such insurance through to the tenant. Should an act of terrorism result in an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits, we could lose capital invested in a property as well as the anticipated future revenues from a property, while our property owner subsidiary remains obligated for any mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations related to the property. Any loss of these types could adversely affect our financial condition.

Cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents may adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information, misappropriation of assets and/or damage to our business relationships, all of which could negatively impact our financial results.
A cyber incident is considered to be any adverse event that threatens the confidentiality, integrity or availability of our information resources. These incidents may be an intentional attack or an unintentional event and could involve gaining unauthorized access to our information systems for purposes of misappropriating assets, stealing confidential information, corrupting data or causing operational disruption. The result of these incidents may include disrupted operations, misstated or unreliable financial data, liability for stolen assets or information, increased cybersecurity protection and insurance costs, litigation and damage to our tenant, investor and/or vendor relationships. As our reliance on technology has increased, so have the risks posed to our information systems, both internal and those we have outsourced. Any processes, procedures and internal controls that we implement, as well as our increased awareness of the nature and extent of a risk of a cyber incident, do not guarantee that our financial results, operations, business relationships or confidential information will not be negatively impacted by such an incident.
Networks and information technology throughout the world and in companies of all sizes are threatened by cybersecurity risks on a regular basis. We must continuously monitor and develop our networks and information technology to prevent, detect, address and mitigate the risk of unauthorized access, misuse, computer viruses and other events that could have a security impact. Insider or employee cyber and security threats are increasingly a concern for all companies, including ours. In addition, social engineering and phishing are a particular concern for companies with employees. We are continuously working to install new, and to upgrade our existing, network and information technology systems and to provide employee awareness training around phishing, malware and other cyber risks to ensure that we are protected, to the greatest extent possible, against cyber risks and security breaches. However, such upgrades, new technology and training may not be sufficient to protect us from all risks.
As a smaller company, we use third-party vendors to assist us with our network and information technology requirements. While we carefully select these third-party vendors, we cannot control their actions. Any problems caused by these third parties, including those resulting from breakdowns or other disruptions in communication services provided by a vendor, failure of a vendor to handle current or higher volumes, cyber attacks and security breaches at a vendor could adversely affect our operations.
Competition may adversely affect our ability to purchase properties.
There are numerous commercial developers, real estate companies, such as other REITs, financial institutions, such as banks and insurance companies, and other investors, such as pension funds, private companies and individuals, with greater financial and other resources than we have that compete with us in seeking investments and tenants. Due to our focus on single-tenant properties located throughout the United States, and because some competitors are often locally and/or regionally focused, we do not always encounter the same competitors in each market. This competition may result in a higher cost for properties and lower returns and impact our ability to grow.
Our failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and share price.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our management previously identified and disclosed a material weakness in the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016. We have determined that our remediation plan eliminated this weakness, but we cannot assure you that our controls will prevent this or other weaknesses from arising in the future. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting in the future, as such standards may be modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we will be required to disclose such failure, and our financial reporting may not be relied on by investors. Moreover, effective internal control is necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and to maintain our qualification as a REIT and is important in helping prevent financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, our REIT qualification could be jeopardized, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our debt and equity securities could drop significantly.
We may have limited control over our joint venture investments.
Our joint venture investments involve risks not otherwise present for investments made solely by us, including the possibility that our partner might, at any time, become bankrupt, have different interests or goals than we do, or take action contrary to our expectations, its previous instructions or our instructions, requests, policies or objectives, including our policy with respect to maintaining our qualification as a REIT. Other risks of joint venture investments include impasses on decisions, such as a sale, because neither we nor our partner has full control over the joint venture. Also, there is no limitation under our organizational documents as to the amount of funds that may be invested in joint ventures.

Our ability to change our portfolio is limited because real estate investments are illiquid.
Investments in real estate are relatively illiquid and, therefore, our ability to change our portfolio promptly in response to changed conditions is limited. Our Board of Trustees may establish investment criteria or limitations as it deems appropriate, but currently does not limit the number or type of properties in which we may seek to invest or on the concentration of investments in any one geographic region.
Our reported financial results may be adversely affected by changes in accounting principles applicable to us and the tenants of properties in which we have an interest.
GAAP is subject to interpretation by various bodies formed to promulgate and interpret appropriate accounting principles such as the Financial Accounting Standards Board. A change in these principles or interpretations could have a significant effect on our reported financial results, could affect the reporting of transactions completed before the announcement of a change and could affect the business practices and decisions of the tenants of properties in which we have an interest.
We have engaged and may engage in hedging transactions that may limit gains or result in losses.
We have used derivatives to hedge certain of our variable-rate liabilities. As of December 31, 2017, we had aggregate interest rate swap agreements on $505.0 million of borrowings. The counterparties of these arrangements are major financial institutions; however, we are exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance or default by the counterparties. Further, additional risks, including losses on a hedge position, may reduce the return on our investments. Such losses may exceed the amount invested in such instruments. We may also have to pay certain costs, such as transaction fees or breakage costs, related to hedging transactions.
Our Board of Trustees may change our investment policy without shareholders' approval.
Subject to our fundamental investment policy to maintain our qualification as a REIT and invest in core assets, our Board of Trustees will determine our investment and financing policies, growth strategy and our debt, capitalization, distribution, acquisition, disposition and operating policies.
Our Board of Trustees may revise or amend these strategies and policies at any time without a vote by shareholders. Changes made by our Board of Trustees may not serve the interests of debt or equity security holders and could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations, including our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations, distribute cash to shareholders and qualify as a REIT. Accordingly, shareholders' control over changes in our strategies and policies is limited to the election of trustees.
We are dependent upon our key personnel.
We are dependent upon key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed. We are dependent on certain of our executive officers for business direction. The employment agreements with each of T. Wilson Eglin, our Chief Executive Officer and President, E. Robert Roskind, our Chairman, Richard J. Rouse, our Vice Chairman and Chief Investment Officer, and Patrick Carroll, our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, expired in January 2018.
As part of our succession planning, we entered into retirement agreements with Mr. Rouse and Mr. Roskind which provide for respective retirement dates of January 14, 2018 and January 15, 2019. Messrs. Eglin and Carroll will continue in their current positions with us subject to certain severance payout rights upon certain termination events.
Our inability to retain the services of any of our key personnel, an unplanned loss of any of their services or our inability to replace them upon termination as needed, could adversely impact our operations. We do not have key man life insurance coverage on our executive officers.

There may be conflicts of interest between E. Robert Roskind and us.
E. Robert Roskind, our Chairman, beneficially owns a significant number of OP units, and as a result, may face different and more adverse tax consequences than our other shareholders will if we sell our interests in certain properties or reduce mortgage indebtedness on certain properties. Our Chairman may, therefore, have different objectives than us and our debt and equity security holders regarding the appropriate pricing and timing of any sale of such properties or reduction of mortgage debt. In addition, an affiliate of Mr. Roskind arranges real estate asset financings using funds raised from immigrant investors in accordance with the fifth preference employment-based immigration program administered by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. During 2017, LCIF obtained a mezzanine loan from Mr. Roskind's affiliate. In the event of an appearance of a conflict of interest and in accordance with our policy regarding related party transactions, Mr. Roskind is required to recuse himself from any decision making or seek a waiver of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which will be reviewed by the non-conflicted members of our Board of Trustees or the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees.
In addition, Mr. Roskind's retirement agreement with us permits Mr. Roskind to spend approximately one third of his business time on the affairs of The LCP Group L.P. and its affiliates during the remaining term of his employment with us. Mr. Roskind and The LCP Group L.P. may engage in a wide variety of activities in the real estate business which may result in actual or potential conflicts of interest with respect to matters affecting us.
Costs of complying with changes in governmental laws and regulations may adversely affect our results of operations.
We cannot predict what laws or regulations may be enacted, repealed or modified in the future, how future laws or regulations will be administered or interpreted, or how future laws or regulations will affect our properties. Compliance with new or modified laws or regulations, or stricter interpretation of existing laws, may require us or our tenants to incur significant expenditures, impose significant liability, restrict or prohibit business activities and could cause a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
We disclose Funds From Operations available to common shareholders and unitholders (“FFO”), Adjusted Company Funds from Operations available to all equityholders and unitholders (“Adjusted Company FFO”), Net Operating Income (“NOI”) and other non-GAAP financial measures in documents filed and/or furnished with the SEC; however, neither FFO, Adjusted Company FFO, NOI nor the other non-GAAP financial measures we disclose are equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP or other applicable comparable GAAP measures, and you should consider GAAP measures to be more relevant to our operating performance.
We use and disclose to investors FFO, Adjusted Company FFO, NOI and other non-GAAP financial measures. FFO, Adjusted Company FFO, NOI and the other non-GAAP financial measures are not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined in accordance with GAAP, and investors should consider GAAP measures to be more relevant to evaluating our operating performance. FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI, and GAAP net income (loss) differ because FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI exclude many items that are factored into GAAP net income or loss.
Because of the differences between FFO, Adjusted Company FFO, NOI and GAAP net income or loss, FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI may not be accurate indicators of our operating performance, especially during periods in which we are acquiring and selling properties. In addition, FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI are not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and investors should not consider FFO, Adjusted Company FFO or NOI as alternatives to cash flows from operations, as an indication of our liquidity or as indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our shareholders.
Neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI. Also, because not all companies calculate FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI the same way, comparisons with other companies measures with similar titles may not be meaningful.

Risks Related to Our Indebtedness
Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to fulfill our obligations under the documents governing our unsecured indebtedness and otherwise adversely impact our business and growth prospects.
We have a substantial amount of debt. We are more leveraged than certain of our competitors. We have incurred, and may continue to incur, direct and indirect indebtedness in furtherance of our activities. Neither our declaration of trust nor any policy statement formerly adopted by our Board of Trustees limits the total amount of indebtedness that we may incur, and accordingly, we could become even more highly leveraged. As of December 31, 2017, our total consolidated indebtedness was approximately $2.1 billion and we had approximately $345.0 million available for borrowing under our principal credit agreement, subject to covenant compliance.
Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and have important consequences to us and our debt and equity security holders. For example, it could:

• | make it more difficult for us to satisfy our indebtedness and debt service obligations and adversely affect our ability to pay distributions;

• | increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions;

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

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

• | restrict us from making strategic acquisitions or exploiting business opportunities;

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

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

In addition, the agreements that govern our current indebtedness contain, and the agreements that may govern any future indebtedness that we may incur may contain, financial and other restrictive covenants, which may limit our ability to engage in activities that may be in our long-term best interests. Our failure to comply with those covenants could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of our debt.
Market interest rates could have an adverse effect on our borrowing costs, profitability and the value of our fixed-rate debt securities.
We have exposure to market risks relating to increases in interest rates due to our variable-rate debt. An increase in interest rates may increase our costs of borrowing on existing variable-rate indebtedness, leading to a reduction in our earnings. As of December 31, 2017, we have a $300.0 million unsecured term loan which matures August 2020 and a $300.0 million unsecured term loan which matures January 2021 that are LIBOR indexed; however, $250.0 million and $255.0 million of the unsecured term loans, respectively, are subject to interest rate swap agreements through February 2018 and January 2019, respectively. In addition, we have $129.1 million of debt that matures in April 2037 and $160.0 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility which matures August 2019, which are both LIBOR indexed. The level of our variable-rate indebtedness, along with the interest rate associated with such variable-rate indebtedness, may change in the future and materially affect our interest costs and earnings. In addition, our interest costs on our fixed-rate indebtedness may increase if we are required to refinance our fixed-rate indebtedness upon maturity at higher interest rates. Also, fixed rate debt securities generally decline in value as market rates rise because the premium, if any, over market interest rates will decline.

Potential disruptions in the financial markets could affect our ability to obtain debt financing on reasonable terms and have other adverse effects on us.
The United States credit markets have periodically experienced significant dislocations and liquidity disruptions which have caused the spreads on prospective debt financings to widen considerably. These circumstances may materially impact liquidity in the debt markets, making financing terms for borrowers less attractive, and in certain cases may result in the unavailability of certain types of debt financing. Uncertainty in the credit markets may negatively impact our ability to access additional debt financing on reasonable terms, which may negatively affect our ability to make acquisitions. A prolonged downturn in the credit markets may cause us to seek alternative sources of potentially less attractive financing and may require us to adjust our business plan accordingly. In addition, these factors may make it more difficult for us to sell properties or may adversely affect the price we receive for properties that we do sell, as prospective buyers may experience increased costs of capital or difficulties in obtaining capital. These events in the credit markets may have an adverse effect on other financial markets in the United States, which may make it more difficult or costly for us to raise capital through the issuance of our common shares or preferred shares. These disruptions in the financial markets may have other adverse effects on us, our tenants or the economy in general.
Covenants in certain of the agreements governing our debt could adversely affect our financial condition, investment activities and/or operating activities.
Our unsecured revolving credit facility, unsecured term loans and indentures governing our 4.40% and 4.25% Senior Notes contain certain cross-default and cross-acceleration provisions as well as customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness and consummate mergers, consolidations or sales of all or substantially all of our assets. Our ability to borrow under our unsecured revolving credit facility is also subject to compliance with certain other covenants. In addition, failure to comply with our covenants could cause a default under the applicable debt instrument and we may then be required to repay such debt with capital from other sources. Under those circumstances other sources of capital may not be available to us or be available only on unattractive terms. Additionally, our ability to satisfy current or prospective lenders' insurance requirements may be adversely affected if lenders generally insist upon greater insurance coverage than is available to us in the marketplace or on commercially reasonable terms.
We rely on debt financing, including borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, unsecured term loans, debt securities, and debt secured by individual properties, for working capital, including to finance our investment activities. If we are unable to obtain financing from these or other sources, or to refinance existing indebtedness upon maturity, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
The documents governing our non-recourse indebtedness contain restrictions on the operations of our property owner subsidiaries and their properties. Certain activities, like leasing, may be subject to the consent of the applicable lender. In addition, certain lenders engage third-party loan servicers that may not be as responsive as we would be or as the leasing market requires.
A downgrade in our credit ratings could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
The credit ratings assigned to us and our debt could change based upon, among other things, our results of operations and financial condition or the real estate industry generally. These ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies, and we cannot assure you that any rating will not be changed or withdrawn by a rating agency in the future if, in the applicable rating agency's judgment, circumstances warrant. Moreover, these credit ratings do not apply to our common and preferred shares and are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold any other securities. Any downgrade of us or our debt could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our debt securities and our common and preferred shares. If any credit rating agency that has rated us or our debt downgrades or lowers its credit rating, or if any credit rating agency indicates that it has placed any such rating on a so-called “watch list” for a possible downgrading or lowering or otherwise indicates that its outlook for that rating is negative, it could also have a material adverse effect on our costs and availability of capital, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make dividends and distributions on our common shares and preferred shares.

We face risks associated with refinancings.
A significant number of the properties in which we have an interest are subject to mortgage or other secured notes with balloon payments due at maturity. In addition, our corporate level borrowings require interest only payments with all principal due at maturity.
As of December 31, 2017, the consolidated scheduled balloon payments for the next five calendar years are as follows ($ in millions):

Year |  | Property-Specific Balloon Payments(1) |  | Corporate Recourse Balloon Payments(2)
2018 |  | $ | 6.6 |  |  | $ | — |
2019 |  | $ | 83.8 |  |  | $ | 160.0 |
2020 |  | $ | 32.0 |  |  | $ | 300.0 |
2021 |  | $ | 17.0 |  |  | $ | 300.0 |
2022 |  | $ | 8.0 |  |  | $ | — |

(1) Inclusive of amounts owed by the Partnership of $31.8 million in 2019, $18.4 million in 2020, $6.6 million in 2021 and $8.0 million in 2022.
(2) The Partnership is a co-borrower.
Our ability to make the scheduled balloon payments on any corporate recourse note will depend on our access to the capital markets, including our ability to refinance the maturing note. Our ability to make the scheduled balloon payment on any non-recourse mortgage note will depend upon (1) in the event we determine to contribute capital, our cash balances and the amount available under our unsecured credit facility, and (2) the property owner subsidiary's ability either to refinance the related mortgage debt or to sell the related property. If the property owner subsidiary is unable to refinance or sell the related property, the property may be conveyed to the lender through foreclosure or other means or the property owner subsidiary may declare bankruptcy.
We face risks associated with returning properties to lenders.
A number of the properties in which we have an interest are subject to non-recourse mortgages, which generally provide that a lender's only recourse upon an event of default is to foreclose on the property. In the event these properties are conveyed via foreclosure to the lenders thereof, we would lose all of our interest in these properties. The loss of a significant number of properties to foreclosure or through bankruptcy of a property owner subsidiary could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, relationships with lenders and ability to obtain additional financing in the future.
In addition, a lender may attempt to trigger a carve out to the non-recourse nature of a mortgage loan. To the extent a lender is successful, the ability of our property owner subsidiary to return the property to the lender may be inhibited and/or we may be liable for all or a portion of such loan.
Certain of our indebtedness is subject to cross-default and cross-acceleration provisions.
Substantially all of our corporate level borrowings and, in the future, certain of our secured indebtedness may, contain cross-default and/or cross-acceleration provisions, which may be triggered if we default on certain indebtedness in excess of certain thresholds. In the event of such a default, the resulting cross defaults and/or cross-accelerations may adversely impact our financial condition.

Risks Related to Our Outstanding Debt Securities
The effective subordination of our unsecured indebtedness and any related guaranty may reduce amounts available for payment on our unsecured indebtedness and any related guaranty.
The holders of our secured debt may foreclose on the assets securing such debt, reducing the cash flow from the foreclosed property available for payment of unsecured debt and any related guaranty. The holders of any of our secured debt also would have priority over unsecured creditors in the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or similar proceeding.
Not all of our subsidiaries are guarantors of our unsecured debt, assets of non-guarantor subsidiaries may not be available to make payments on our unsecured indebtedness and any related guarantees may be released in the future if certain events occur.
As of December 31, 2017, only we and/or the Partnership were a borrower or a guarantor of our unsecured indebtedness. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our non-guarantor subsidiaries, holders of non-guarantor subsidiary debt, including trade creditors, will generally be entitled to payment of their claims from the assets of non-guarantor subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to us or any of the subsidiary guarantors of our unsecured debt.
In addition, any subsidiary guarantor, including the Partnership, will be deemed released from its obligations with respect to our unsecured debt if such subsidiary guarantor’s obligations as a borrower or guarantor under our principal credit agreement terminates pursuant to the terms of our principal credit agreement or if our principal credit agreement is amended to remove certain or all of the subsidiary guarantors as borrowers or guarantors. To the extent any of our unsecured indebtedness is no longer guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries in the future, such debt will be our obligations exclusively. All of our assets are held through our operating partnership and our other subsidiaries. Consequently, our cash flow and our ability to meet our debt service obligations depends in large part upon the cash flow of our subsidiaries and the payment of funds by our subsidiaries to us in the form of distributions or otherwise.
Federal and state statutes allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void guarantees and require holders of certain of our unsecured indebtedness to return payments received from us or any related guarantor.
Under the federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws, a guarantee could be voided, or claims in respect of a guarantee could be subordinated to all other debts of that guarantor if, among other things, the guarantor, at the time it incurred the debt evidenced by its guarantee:

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

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

• | was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of such incurrence;

• | was engaged or about to engage in a business or transaction for which the guarantor’s remaining unencumbered assets constituted unreasonably small capital to carry on its business; or

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

In addition, any payment by that guarantor pursuant to its guarantee could be voided and required to be returned to the guarantor, or to a fund for the benefit of the creditors of the guarantor.
The measures of insolvency for purposes of these fraudulent transfer laws will vary depending upon the law applied in any proceeding to determine whether a fraudulent transfer has occurred. Generally, however, a guarantor would be considered insolvent if, at the time it incurred the debt:

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

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

• | it could not pay its debts as they become due.

Table of Contents
We cannot be sure as to the standards that a court would use to determine whether or not any guarantor was solvent at the relevant time, or, regardless of the standard that the court uses, that the issuance of such guaranty would not be voided or any such guaranty would not be subordinated to that of such guarantor’s other debt. If a case were to occur, any such guaranty could also be subject to the claim that, since the guaranty was incurred for our benefit, and only indirectly for the benefit of such guarantor, the obligations of such guarantor were incurred for less than fair consideration. A court could thus void the obligations under the guarantees or subordinate the guarantees to such guarantor’s other debt or take other action detrimental to holders of our unsecured indebtedness.
Risks Related to Lexington's REIT Status
There can be no assurance that Lexington will remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.
We believe that Lexington has met the requirements for qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 1993, and we intend for Lexington to continue to meet these requirements in the future. However, qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Code, for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. The Code provisions and income tax regulations applicable to REITs are more complex than those applicable to corporations. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect Lexington's ability to continue to qualify as a REIT. No assurance can be given that Lexington has qualified or will remain qualified as a REIT. In addition, no assurance can be given that legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not significantly change the requirements for qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. If Lexington does not qualify as a REIT, Lexington would not be allowed a deduction for distributions to shareholders in computing its net taxable income. In addition, Lexington's income would be subject to tax at the regular corporate rates. Lexington also could be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost. Cash available to satisfy Lexington's debt service obligations and distributions to its shareholders would be significantly reduced or suspended for each year in which Lexington does not qualify as a REIT. In that event, Lexington would not be required to continue to make distributions. Although we currently intend for Lexington to continue to qualify as a REIT, it is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause Lexington, without the consent of the shareholders, to revoke the REIT election or to otherwise take action that would result in disqualification.
We may be subject to the REIT prohibited transactions tax, which could result in significant U.S. federal income tax liability to us.
A REIT will incur a 100% tax on the net income from a prohibited transaction. Generally, a prohibited transaction includes a sale or disposition of property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business. While we believe that the dispositions of our assets pursuant to our investment strategy should not be treated as prohibited transactions, whether a particular sale will be treated as a prohibited transaction depends on the underlying facts and circumstances. We have not sought and do not intend to seek a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding any dispositions. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our dispositions of such assets will not be subject to the prohibited transactions tax. If all or a significant portion of those dispositions were treated as prohibited transactions, we would incur a significant U.S. federal income tax liability, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Distribution requirements imposed by law limit our flexibility.
To maintain Lexington's status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, Lexington is generally required to distribute to its shareholders at least 90% of its taxable income for that calendar year. Lexington's taxable income is determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid and by excluding net capital gains. To the extent that Lexington satisfies the distribution requirement but distributes less than 100% of its taxable income, Lexington will be subject to federal corporate income tax on its undistributed income. In addition, Lexington will incur a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which its distributions in any year are less than the sum of (i) 85% of its ordinary income for that year, (ii) 95% of its capital gain net income for that year and (iii) 100% of its undistributed taxable income from prior years. We intend for Lexington to continue to make distributions to its shareholders to comply with the distribution requirements of the Code and to reduce exposure to federal income and nondeductible excise taxes. Differences in timing between the receipt of income and the payment of expenses in determining its taxable income and the effect of required debt amortization payments could require Lexington to borrow funds on a short-term basis in order to meet the distribution requirements that are necessary to achieve the tax benefits associated with qualifying as a REIT.

Legislative or regulatory tax changes could have an adverse effect on us.
At any time, the federal income tax laws governing REITs or the administrative interpretations of those laws may be amended. Any of those new laws or interpretations may take effect retroactively and could adversely affect us or you as a debt and/or equity security holder. REIT dividends generally are not eligible for the reduced rates currently applicable to certain corporate dividends (unless attributable to dividends from taxable REIT subsidiaries and otherwise eligible for such rates). As a result, investment in non-REIT corporations may be relatively more attractive than investment in REITs. This could adversely affect the market price of our shares.
Tax legislation signed into law on December 22, 2017, makes numerous changes to the tax rules that do not affect the REIT qualification rules directly, but may otherwise affect us or our shareholders. For example, the top federal income tax rate for individuals is reduced to 37%, there is a new deduction available for certain Qualified Business Income, that reduces the top effective tax rate applicable to ordinary dividends from REITs to 29.6% (through a 20% deduction for ordinary REIT dividends received) and various deductions are eliminated or limited. Most of the changes applicable to individuals are temporary. There are only minor changes to the REIT rules (other than the 20% deduction applicable to individuals for ordinary REIT dividends received). To date, the Internal Revenue Service has issued only limited guidance on the changes made by the new legislation. It is unclear at this time whether Congress will address these issues or when the Internal Revenue Service will issue additional administrative guidance on the changes made by the new legislation.
Risks Related to Our Shares
We may change the dividend policy for our common shares in the future.
The decision to declare and pay dividends on our common shares in the future, as well as the timing, amount and composition of any such future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Trustees in light of conditions then existing, including our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, debt maturities, the availability of debt and equity capital, applicable REIT and legal restrictions and the general overall economic conditions and other factors. The actual dividend payable will be determined by our Board of Trustees based upon the circumstances at the time of declaration and the actual dividend payable may vary from such expected amount. Any change in our dividend policy could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common shares.
We may in the future choose to pay dividends in shares, in which case you may be required to pay income taxes in excess of the cash dividends you receive.
We may in the future distribute taxable dividends that are payable in shares. Taxable shareholders receiving such dividends will be required to include the full amount of the dividend as ordinary income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for United States federal income tax purposes. As a result, a U.S. shareholder may be required to pay income taxes with respect to such dividends even though no cash dividends were received. If a U.S. shareholder sells the shares it receives as a dividend in order to pay this tax, the sales proceeds may be less than the amount included in income with respect to the dividend, depending on the market price of the shares at the time of the sale. Furthermore, with respect to non-U.S. shareholders, we may be required to withhold U.S. tax with respect to such dividends. In addition, if a significant number of our shareholders determine to sell such shares received in a dividend in order to pay taxes owed on such dividend, it may put downward pressure on the trading price of our common shares.
Securities eligible for future sale may have adverse effects on our share price.
We have an unallocated universal shelf registration statement and we also maintain the ATM offering program and a direct share purchase plan, pursuant to which we may issue additional common shares. There is no restriction on our issuing additional common or preferred shares, including any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common or preferred shares or any substantially similar securities. As of December 31, 2017, an aggregate of approximately 3.8 million of our common shares were issuable upon the exercise of employee share options and upon the exchange of OP units. Depending upon the number of such securities issued, exercised or exchanged at one time, an issuance, exercise or exchange of such securities could be dilutive to or otherwise adversely affect the interests of holders or the market price of our common shares.

There are certain limitations on a third party's ability to acquire us or effectuate a change in our control.
Limitations imposed to protect our REIT status. In order to protect against the loss of our REIT status, among other purposes, our declaration of trust limits any shareholder from owning more than 9.8% in value of our outstanding equity shares, defined as common shares or preferred shares, subject to certain exceptions. These ownership limits may have the effect of precluding acquisition of control of us. Our Board of Trustees has granted a limited waiver of the ownership limits to BlackRock, Inc. with respect to BlackRock, Inc.'s mutual funds.
Severance payments under our executive severance policy. Substantial termination payments may be required to be paid under our executive severance policy applicable to and related agreements with our executives upon the termination of an executive. If those executive officers are terminated without cause, as defined, or resign for good reason, as defined, those executive officers may be entitled to severance benefits based on their current annual base salaries and trailing average of recent annual cash bonuses as defined in our executive severance policy and related agreements and the acceleration of certain non-vested equity awards. Accordingly, these payments may discourage a third party from acquiring us.
Our ability to issue additional shares. Our declaration of trust authorizes 1,000,000,000 shares of beneficial interest (par value $0.0001 per share) consisting of 400,000,000 common shares, 100,000,000 preferred shares and 500,000,000 shares of beneficial interest classified as excess stock, or excess shares. Our Board of Trustees is authorized to cause us to issue these shares without shareholder approval. Our Board of Trustees may establish the preferences and rights of any such class or series of additional shares, which could have the effect of delaying or preventing someone from taking control of us, even if a change in control were in shareholders' best interests. At December 31, 2017, in addition to common shares, we had outstanding 1,935,400 Series C Preferred Shares. Our Series C Preferred Shares include provisions, such as increases in dividend rates or adjustments to conversion rates, that may deter a change of control. The establishment and issuance of shares of our existing series of preferred shares or a future class or series of shares could make a change of control of us more difficult.
Maryland Business Combination Act. The Maryland General Corporation Law, as applicable to Maryland REITs, establishes special restrictions against “business combinations” between a Maryland REIT and “interested shareholders” or their affiliates unless an exemption is applicable. An interested shareholder includes a person who beneficially owns, and an affiliate or associate of the trust who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question was the beneficial owner of, 10% or more of the voting power of our then-outstanding voting shares, but a person is not an interested shareholder if the Board of Trustees approved in advance the transaction by which such person otherwise would have become an interested shareholder, which approval may be conditioned by the Board of Trustees. Among other things, Maryland law prohibits (for a period of five years) a merger and certain other transactions between a Maryland REIT and an interested shareholder, or an affiliate of an interested shareholder. The five-year period runs from the most recent date on which the interested shareholder became an interested shareholder. Thereafter, any such business combination must be recommended by the Board of Trustees and approved by two super-majority shareholder votes unless, among other conditions, the common shareholders receive a minimum price (as defined in the Maryland General Corporation Law) for their shares and the consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by the interested shareholder for its shares. The statute permits various exemptions from its provisions, including business combinations that are exempted by the Board of Trustees prior to the time that the interested shareholder becomes an interested shareholder. The business combination statute could have the effect of discouraging offers to acquire us and of increasing the difficulty of consummating any such offers, even if such acquisition would be in shareholders' best interests. In connection with the Newkirk Merger, Vornado Realty Trust, which we refer to as Vornado, was granted a limited exemption from the definition of “interested shareholder.”

Table of Contents
Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act. Maryland law provides that a holder of “control shares” of a Maryland REIT acquired in a “control share acquisition” has no voting rights with respect to such shares except to the extent approved by a vote of two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter under the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act. Shares owned by the acquirer, by our officers or by employees who are our trustees are excluded from shares entitled to vote on the matter. “Control Shares” are voting shares that, if aggregated with all other shares previously acquired by the acquirer or in respect of which the acquirer is able to exercise or direct the exercise of voting power (except solely by virtue of a revocable proxy), would entitle the acquirer to exercise voting power in electing trustees within one of the following ranges of voting power: one-tenth or more but less than one-third, one-third or more but less than a majority or a majority or more of all voting power. Control shares do not include shares the acquiring person is then entitled to vote as a result of having previously obtained shareholder approval. A “control share acquisition” means the acquisition of issued and outstanding control shares, subject to certain exceptions. If voting rights of control shares acquired in a control share acquisition are not approved at a shareholders meeting or if the acquiring person does not deliver an acquiring person statement as required under the statute, then, subject to certain conditions and limitations, the issuer may redeem any or all of the control shares for fair value, except those for which voting rights have been previously approved. If voting rights of such control shares are approved at a shareholders meeting and the acquirer becomes entitled to vote a majority of the shares entitled to vote, all other shareholders may exercise appraisal rights. Any control shares acquired in a control share acquisition which are not exempt under our by-laws will be subject to the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act. The Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act does not apply to shares acquired in a merger, consolidation or statutory share exchange if the Maryland REIT is a party to the transaction, or to acquisitions approved or exempted by the declaration of trust or by-laws of the Maryland REIT. Our by-laws contain a provision exempting from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act any and all acquisitions by any person of our shares. We cannot assure you that this provision will not be amended or eliminated at any time in the future.
Limits on ownership of our capital shares may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing someone from taking control of us.
For us to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, among other requirements, not more than 50% of the value of our outstanding capital shares may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined for federal income tax purposes to include certain entities) during the last half of each taxable year, and these capital shares must be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year (in each case, other than the first such year for which a REIT election is made). Our declaration of trust includes certain restrictions regarding transfers of our capital shares and ownership limits.
Actual or constructive ownership of our capital shares in violation of the restrictions or in excess of the share ownership limits contained in our declaration of trust would cause the violative transfer or ownership to be void or cause the shares to be transferred to a charitable trust and then sold to a person or entity who can own the shares without violating these limits. As a result, if a violative transfer were made, the recipient of the shares would not acquire any economic or voting rights attributable to the transferred shares. Additionally, the constructive ownership rules for these limits are complex, and groups of related individuals or entities may be deemed a single owner and consequently in violation of the share ownership limits.
However, these restrictions and limits may not be adequate in all cases to prevent the transfer of our capital shares in violation of the ownership limitations. The ownership limits discussed above may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing someone from taking control of us, even though a change of control could involve a premium price for the common shares or otherwise be in shareholders' best interests.
The trading price of our common shares has been, and may continue to be, subject to significant fluctuations.
The market price of our common shares may fluctuate in response to company-specific and general market events and developments, including those described in this Annual Report. In addition, our leverage may impact investor demand for our common shares, which could have a material effect on the market price of our common shares.
Furthermore, the public valuation of our common shares is related primarily to the earnings that we derive from rental income with respect to the properties in which we have an interest and not from the underlying appraised value of the properties themselves. As a result, interest rate fluctuations and capital market conditions can affect the market value of our common shares. For instance, if interest rates rise, the market price of our common shares may decrease because potential investors seeking a higher yield than they would receive from our common shares may sell our common shares in favor of higher yielding securities.

Risk Related Specifically To LCIF
The Partnership is dependent upon Lexington for its business.
The Partnership has no employees and the Partnership is dependent upon Lexington and its employees for the operation of its business, including the acquisition, disposition and management of its properties, investments and other assets and sourcing of equity and debt financing. The continued service of Lexington and its employees is not guaranteed. Lexington has no obligation to allocate any investment opportunities to the Partnership or provide the Partnership debt or equity financing. As a result, if Lexington and its employees were unable or unwilling to provide or were unsuccessful at providing such services to the Partnership, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
The Partnership does not hold all or substantially all of the assets owned by Lexington.
The Partnership is not a traditional UPREIT operating partnership that holds all of the assets of the REIT. The Partnership holds less than half of Lexington's total assets. As a result, a holder of equity or debt securities of the Partnership does not have recourse against the assets of Lexington that are not owned by the Partnership.
The Partnership is the only subsidiary of Lexington that guarantees its debt and the assets of the Partnership's subsidiaries may not be available to make payments on Lexington’s or its unsecured indebtedness and any related guarantees may be released in the future if certain events occur.
As of December 31, 2017, the Partnership was the only co-borrower or guarantor of Lexington’s unsecured indebtedness. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of the Partnership's subsidiaries, holders of any such subsidiary’s debt, including trade creditors, will generally be entitled to payment of their claims from the assets of such subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to Lexington or the Partnership.
In addition, the Partnership will be deemed released if the Partnership's obligations as a co-borrower or guarantor under Lexington’s principal credit agreement terminates pursuant to its terms or if it is amended to remove certain or all of Lexington’s guarantors as borrowers or guarantors. Substantially, all of the Partnership's assets are held through subsidiaries. Consequently, the Partnership's cash flow and its ability to meet its debt service and guarantee obligations depends in large part upon the cash flow of its subsidiaries and the payment of funds by its subsidiaries to the Partnership in the form of distributions or otherwise.

Real Estate Portfolio
General. As of December 31, 2017, we had equity ownership interests in approximately 175 consolidated real estate properties containing approximately 48.6 million square feet of rentable space, which were approximately 98.9% leased based upon net rentable square feet. Generally, all properties in which we have an interest are held through at least one property owner subsidiary.
The tenant in our Memphis, Tennessee industrial property purported to exercise an economic discontinuance option, which we believe was invalid. We expect the tenant to cease paying rent on March 1, 2018. We intend to enforce the terms of the lease.
Ground Leases. Certain of the properties in which we have an interest are subject to long-term ground leases where either the tenant of the building on the property or a third party owns and leases the underlying land to the property owner subsidiary. Certain of these properties are economically owned through the holding of industrial revenue bonds primarily for real estate tax abatement purposes and as such, neither ground lease payments nor bond interest payments are made or received, respectively. For certain of the properties held under a ground lease, the ground lessee has a purchase option. At the end of these long-term ground leases, unless extended or the purchase option is exercised, the land together with all improvements thereon reverts to the landowner.
Leverage. As of December 31, 2017, we had outstanding mortgages and notes payable of approximately $0.7 billion with a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 4.6% and a weighted-average maturity of 10.4 years.
Property Charts. The following tables list our properties by type, their locations, the primary tenant/guarantor, the net rentable square feet, the expiration of the primary lease term and percent leased, as applicable, as of December 31, 2017. The Partnership's properties are included and are identified with an asterisk.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
From time to time we are directly and indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We believe, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
GSMSC II 2006-GG6 Bridgewater Hills Corporate Center, LLC v. Lexington Realty Trust (Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York-Index No. 653117/2015)
On September 16, 2015, GSMSC II 2006-GG6 Bridgewater Hills Corporate Center, LLC commenced an action as lender against the Company based on a limited guaranty of recourse obligations executed by a predecessor entity of the Company in connection with a mortgage loan secured by a property owner subsidiary's commercial property in Bridgewater, New Jersey. The property owner subsidiary defaulted due to non-payment after the sole tenant vacated at the end of the lease term. The lender claimed approximately $9.2 million in order to satisfy the outstanding amount of the loan, plus interest, reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs and disbursements related thereto.
The lender claimed that the Company's limited guaranty was triggered due to the Newkirk Merger, arguing that it constituted an event of default because it was a transfer that was not permitted by the loan agreement. The limited guaranty provided that the guarantor's liability for the guaranteed obligations shall not exceed $10.0 million. The Company filed a motion to dismiss, which was generally denied. The parties conducted discovery consisting of document production. A mediation was held on October 5, 2017. As a result of discussions following the mediation, a settlement agreement was executed on November 6, 2017, and the Company made a $2.05 million payment in full settlement of the lender's claim. Following the settlement, the action was dismissed on November 22, 2017.
The lender also brought a foreclosure action against the property owner subsidiary. A foreclosure sale was held September 13, 2016 and the lender acquired the property for a nominal amount.

Lexington Realty Trust
Market Information. Our common shares are listed for trading on the NYSE under the symbol “LXP”. The following table sets forth the high and low sales prices as reported by the NYSE (composite) for our common shares for each of the periods indicated below:

For the Quarters Ended: |  | High |  | Low
December 31, 2017 |  | $ | 10.65 |  |  | $ | 9.58 |
September 30, 2017 |  | 10.44 |  |  | 9.61 |
June 30, 2017 |  | 10.56 |  |  | 9.00 |
March 31, 2017 |  | 11.42 |  |  | 9.84 |
December 31, 2016 |  | 11.01 |  |  | 9.23 |
September 30, 2016 |  | 11.02 |  |  | 9.89 |
June 30, 2016 |  | 10.12 |  |  | 8.36 |
March 31, 2016 |  | 8.81 |  |  | 6.52 |

The per common share closing price on the NYSE (composite) was $8.15 on February 22, 2018.
Holders. As of February 22, 2018, we had approximately 2,834 common shareholders of record.
Dividends. Since our predecessor's formation in 1993, we have made quarterly distributions without interruption.
The common share dividends paid in each quarter for the last two years are as follows:

Quarters Ended |  | 2017 |  | 2016
March 31, |  | $ | 0.175 |  |  | $ | 0.170 |
June 30, |  | $ | 0.175 |  |  | $ | 0.170 |
September 30, |  | $ | 0.175 |  |  | $ | 0.170 |
December 31, |  | $ | 0.175 |  |  | $ | 0.175 |

While we intend to continue paying regular quarterly dividends to holders of our common shares, the authorization of future dividend declarations will be at the discretion of our Board of Trustees and will depend on our actual cash flow, our financial condition, capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code and such other factors as our Board of Trustees deems relevant. The actual cash flow available to pay dividends will be affected by a number of factors, including, among others, the risks discussed under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A and “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 of this Annual Report.
We do not believe that the financial covenants contained in our debt instruments will have any adverse impact on our ability to pay dividends in the normal course of business to our common and preferred shareholders or to distribute amounts necessary to maintain our qualification as a REIT.
Direct Share Purchase Plan. We maintain a direct share purchase plan, which has two components, (i) a dividend reinvestment component and (ii) a direct share purchase component. Under the dividend reinvestment component, common shareholders and holders of OP units may elect to automatically reinvest their dividends and distributions to purchase our common shares. Under the direct share purchase component, our current investors and new investors can make optional cash purchases of our common shares. The administrator of the plan, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., purchases common shares for the accounts of the participants under the plan, at our discretion, either directly from us, on the open market or through a combination of those two options. In 2016 and 2015, we issued approximately 0.6 million and 2.3 million common shares, respectively, under the plan, raising net proceeds of $4.1 million and $20.8 million, respectively. We did not issue any shares under the plan in 2017.
ATM Program. In January 2013, we implemented, and in November 2016, we updated, our ATM offering program, under which we may, from time to time, sell up to $125.0 million in common shares over the term of the program. As of the date of the filing of this Annual Report, we have issued 5,979,639 common shares under this ATM offering program at a weighted-average issue price of $10.83 per common share, generating proceeds of approximately $63.7 million after deducting approximately $1.0 million of commissions. We intend to use the net proceeds from the ATM offering program for general working capital, which may include unspecified acquisitions and to repay indebtedness. As of the date of filing this Annual Report, we had approximately $60.3 million available for issuance under the ATM offering program.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
In this discussion, we have included statements that may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts but instead represent only our beliefs regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside our control. These statements may relate to our future plans and objectives, among other things. By identifying these statements for you in this manner, we are alerting you to the possibility that our actual results may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results indicated in these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our results to differ, possibly materially, from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, those discussed above in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report and “Cautionary Statements Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” in the beginning of this Annual Report.
Introduction
The following is a discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Lexington Realty Trust and LCIF for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, and significant factors that could affect their prospective financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read together with the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Partnership included herein and notes thereto.
Lexington Realty Trust
Overview
General. We are a Maryland REIT that owns a diversified portfolio of equity investments in primarily single-tenant commercial properties.
As of December 31, 2017, we had equity ownership interests in approximately 175 consolidated real estate properties, located in 37 states and encompassing approximately 48.6 million square feet, approximately 98.9% of which was leased.
Our revenues and cash flows are generated predominantly from property rent receipts. As a result, growth in revenues and cash flows is directly correlated to our ability to (1) acquire income producing real estate assets and (2) re-lease properties that are vacant, or may become vacant, at favorable rental rates.
In an effort to diversify our risk, we invest across the United States in properties leased to tenants in various industries. However, industry and regional declines, to the extent we have concentration, and general economic declines, could negatively impact our results of operations and cash flows.
Portfolio Management. One of our objectives is to generate at least half of our rental revenue from leases ten years or longer, which we expect to achieve primarily through capital recycling of assets with shorter-term leases and acquiring new investments with leases longer than ten years. However, tenants with long-term leases may require purchase options and/or termination options.
For leases in place at December 31, 2017, we generated approximately 37.7% of our 2017 base rental revenue from leases ten years or longer compared to approximately 36.8% of our 2016 base rental revenue for leases in place at December 31, 2016. The increase related primarily to acquisitions of properties with longer lease terms and sales of shorter-leased properties. At December 31, 2017, our base rental revenue from single-tenant leases scheduled to expire over the next five years was approximately 28.9% compared to approximately 35.6% at December 31, 2016. We believe we no longer have concentrated risk of lease rollover in any one year and we believe our cash flows are stable. Our weighted-average lease term was 9.1 years at December 31, 2017 compared to approximately 8.6 years at December 31, 2016.
Business Strategy. Our current business strategy is focused on enhancing our cash flow stability, growing our portfolio of attractive long-term leased investments and maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet to allow us to act on opportunities as they arise. See “Business” in Part I, Item 1 of this Annual Report for a detailed description of our current business strategy.
We expect our business strategy will enable us to continue to improve our liquidity and strengthen our overall balance sheet. We believe liquidity and a strong balance sheet will allow us to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities as they arise.

Investment Trends. Making investments in income producing single-tenant net-leased real estate assets is one of our primary focuses. The challenge we face is finding investments that will provide an attractive return without compromising our real estate or tenant credit underwriting criteria. We believe we have access to acquisition opportunities due to our relationships with developers, brokers, corporate users and sellers. However, competition for income producing single-tenant net-leased real estate assets continues to be strong. When we acquire real estate assets, we generally look for commercial real estate assets subject to long-term net-leases which have one or more of the following characteristics (1) a credit-worthy tenant, (2) adaptability to a variety of users, including multi-tenant use, (3) an attractive geographic location, and (4) the potential for capital appreciation.
In recent years, demand for space in the suburban office market has not been as strong as demand for space in the industrial market. We believe this is due to a continuing trend of downsizing of corporate office requirements and an increase in the demand for regionalized distribution and e-commerce facilities. In addition, industrial assets generally require less capital to maintain and re-lease than required by office assets. In recent years, we have focused on increasing our rental revenue from industrial assets as compared to office assets. As of December 31, 2017, the ratio of base rental revenue from office assets to the base rental revenue from industrial assets was approximately 1.2:1, which is lower than it was at the end of the previous year. We expect that our office portfolio will be concentrated in fewer, but larger, markets over the next several years, which we expect to accomplish primarily through sales of office assets. Our capital recycling strategy may have a near-term dilutive impact on earnings due to sales of revenue-producing properties, but we believe in the long term this strategy will benefit shareholder value.
During 2017, we saw continued capitalization rate compression in the acquisition market for existing product, particularly for industrial assets. We expect that as interest rates rise, capitalization rates will rise. However, with the significant amount of competition in the current acquisition market, capitalization rates have continued to compress or hold steady even as interest rates rise.
We believe that build-to-suit transactions continue to have stabilized yields above those in the existing product market. Build-to-suit transactions, as compared with immediate deliverable acquisitions, result in a delay in the receipt of cash flow and the recognition of funds from operations during the construction period, but provide us with modern buildings subject to long-term leases. However, the recent demand for industrial assets has allowed developers to obtain construction financing from traditional banks and build on a speculative basis, which has limited our opportunities in the industrial build-to-suit market. In an effort to gain more exposure to the build-to-suit industrial market, we acquired a 90% interest in a joint venture with a developer that acquired a developable parcel of land. The joint venture intends to source industrial build-to-suit projects for the land.
Some of our industrial investments are, and we expect in the future some will be, subject to leases shorter than we require for office properties, because we believe renewal and retenanting risks are mitigated because of the fungibility of certain industrial assets.
We generally mitigate our cost exposure for build-to-suit properties and forward commitments by requiring purchase agreements, development agreements and/or loan agreements to specify a maximum price and/or loan commitment amount prior to our investment. Cost overruns are generally the responsibility of the developer or, in some cases, the prospective tenant. To further mitigate risk, we believe we perform stringent underwriting procedures such as, among other items, (1) requiring payment and performance bonds and/or completion guarantees from developers and/or contractors; (2) engaging third-party construction consultants and/or engineers to monitor construction progress and quality; (3) only hiring developers with a proven history of performance; (4) requiring developers to provide financial statements and in some cases personal guarantees from principals; (5) obtaining and reviewing detailed plans and construction budgets; (6) requiring a long-term tenant lease to be executed prior to funding; and (7) securing liens on the property to the extent of construction funding.
We believe that, despite the addition of some shorter-term industrial leases, the long-term leases with escalating rents we have been adding to our portfolio are strengthening our future cash flows by providing a hedge against rising interest rates, extending our weighted-average lease term, balancing our lease expiration schedule, reducing the average age of our portfolio and supporting our dividend objectives.

Loan Investments. As of December 31, 2017, all of the Company's loans receivable were fully satisfied. In 2017, we sold our loan receivable that was secured by a hospital in Kennewick, Washington for $80.4 million. We also collected $8.5 million in full satisfaction of a loan secured by a tenant-in-common's interest in an office property. In addition, in 2017, we collected $49.1 million in full satisfaction of a loan made to a joint venture that owns a property in Katy, Texas. The joint venture satisfied the loan with proceeds from a third-party mortgage financing in the original principal amount of $50.0 million.
Leasing Trends. Re-leasing properties that are currently vacant or as leases expire at favorable effective rates is one of our primary asset management focuses. The primary risks associated with re-tenanting properties are (1) the period of time required to find a new tenant, (2) whether rental rates will be lower than under previous leases, (3) the significance of leasing costs such as commissions and tenant improvement allowances and (4) the payment of capital expenditures and operating costs such as real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance with no offsetting revenue.
Our property owner subsidiaries seek to mitigate these risks by (1) staying in close contact with our tenants during the lease term in order to assess the tenant's current and future occupancy needs, (2) maintaining relationships with local brokers to determine the depth of the rental market and (3) retaining local expertise to assist in the re-tenanting of a property. However, no assurance can be given that once a property becomes vacant it will subsequently be re-let. Generally, a tenant in a single-tenant office property commences lease extension discussions well in advance of lease expiration. If the lease has a year or less remaining until expiration, generally, there is a high likelihood that the tenant will not extend the lease for the entire property or at all. Industrial renewals are generally not as time sensitive due to the minimal capital expenditures upon renewal as compared with office property renewals.
If a property cannot be re-let to a single user and the property can be adapted to multi-tenant use, we determine whether the costs of adapting the property to multi-tenant use outweigh the benefit of funding operating costs while searching for a single-tenant and whether selling a vacant property, which limits operating costs and allows us to redeploy capital, is in the best interest of our shareholders.

Certain of the long-term leases on properties in which we have an ownership interest contain provisions that may mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on our operating results. Such provisions include clauses entitling us to receive (1) scheduled fixed base rent increases and (2) base rent increases based upon the consumer price index. In addition, a majority of the leases on the single-tenant properties in which we have an ownership interest require tenants to pay operating expenses, including maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses. In addition, the leases on single-tenant properties in which we have an ownership interest are generally structured in a way that minimizes our responsibility for capital improvements. However, certain of our leases provide for some level of landlord responsibility for capital repairs and replacements, the cost of which is generally factored into the rental rate.
Our motivation to release vacant space requires us to meet market demands with respect to rental rates, tenant concessions and landlord responsibilities. As a result, the obligations of our property owner subsidiaries on new leases and newly renewed or extended leases generally increase to include, among other items, some form of responsibility for capital repairs and replacements.
During 2017, we entered into 40 consolidated new leases and lease extensions encompassing approximately 3.8 million square feet. The average GAAP base rent on these extended leases was approximately $5.60 per square foot compared to the average GAAP base rent on these leases before extension of $5.24 per square foot. The weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions during 2017 was approximately $18.59 per square foot for new leases and $2.64 per square foot for extended leases. Due to the nature of the expected lease rollovers in coming years, renewal rents may be lower than expiring rents and aggregate tenant improvement allowances and leasing costs may decrease from their current levels in such years. The impact of any such lower renewal rent may be mitigated by our capital recycling strategy and our long-term leases with annual or periodic rent increases.
We continue to monitor the credit of tenants of properties in which we have an interest by (1) subscribing to rating agency information, so that we can monitor changes in the ratings of our rated tenants, (2) reviewing financial statements that are publicly available or that are required to be delivered to us under the applicable lease, (3) monitoring news reports regarding our tenants and their respective businesses and (4) monitoring the timeliness of rent collections.
During 2017, 2016 and 2015, we conveyed in foreclosure or via a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure certain properties in which we had an interest as we deemed the balance of the non-recourse mortgage loans encumbering the properties were in excess of the value of the property collateral. Our property owner subsidiaries may convey properties to lenders or the property owner subsidiary may declare bankruptcy in the future if there is no or limited recourse to us and a property owner subsidiary is unable to refinance, re-let or sell its vacated property or if a tenant renews at a lower rent or a new tenant pays a lower rent that does not justify a value of the property in excess of the mortgage loan balance.
Impairment charges. During 2017, 2016 and 2015, we incurred impairment charges on certain of our assets, excluding loan receivables, of $39.7 million, $100.2 million and $36.8 million, respectively, due to each asset's carrying value being below its sale price or estimated fair value, as applicable. In 2016, we incurred impairment charges primarily due to the write-off of the deferred rent receivable for the sold New York, New York land investments. The real estate assets we sold that resulted in impairment charges were primarily non-core assets including land investments, retail properties and under performing and multi-tenant properties. We cannot estimate if we will incur, or the amount of, future impairment charges on our assets. See Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors”, of this Annual Report.
Critical Accounting Policies. Our accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require our management to make estimates that affect the amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities reported and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. A summary of our significant accounting policies which are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations is set forth in note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included in “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report.

Table of Contents
The following is a summary of our critical accounting policies, which require some of management's most difficult, subjective and complex judgments.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. The financial statements reflect our accounts and the accounts of our consolidated subsidiaries. We consolidate our wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which we control through (1) voting rights or similar rights or (2) by means other than voting rights if we are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, which we refer to as a VIE. Entities which we do not control and entities which are VIEs in which we are not the primary beneficiary are generally accounted for by the equity method. Significant judgments and assumptions are made by us to determine whether an entity is a VIE such as those regarding an entity's equity at risk, the entity's equityholders' obligations to absorb anticipated losses and other factors. In addition, the determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE requires judgment to determine the party that has (1) power over the significant activities of the VIE and (2) an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE.
Judgments and Estimates. Our management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses to prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions are based on our management's best estimates and judgment. Our management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the economic environment. Our management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets, loans receivable and equity method investments, valuation of derivative financial instruments, valuation of compensation plans and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimated.
Purchase Accounting and Acquisition of Real Estate. The fair value of the real estate acquired, which includes the impact of fair value adjustments for assumed mortgage debt related to property acquisitions, is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values.
The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land, building and improvements and fixtures and equipment) is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant. The “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building and improvements based on our management's determination of relative fair values of these assets. Factors considered by our management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, our management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. Our management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions. Our management generally retains a third party to assist in the allocations.
In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market lease values are recorded based on the difference between the current in-place lease rent and management's estimate of current market rents. Below-market lease intangibles are recorded as part of deferred revenue and amortized into rental revenue over the non-cancelable periods and bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. Above-market leases are recorded as part of intangible assets and amortized as a direct charge against rental revenue over the non-cancelable portion of the respective leases.
The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases and tenant relationship values, is measured by the excess of (1) the purchase price paid for a property over (2) the estimated fair value of the property as if vacant, determined as set forth above. This aggregate value is allocated between in-place lease values and tenant relationship values based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease. The value of in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods and any bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationships is amortized to expense over the applicable lease term plus expected renewal periods.

Revenue Recognition. We recognize lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the leased property. Revenue is recognized on a contractual basis for leases with escalations tied to a consumer price index with no floor. Renewal options in leases with rental terms that are lower than those in the primary term are excluded from the calculation of straight line rent if the renewals are not reasonably assured. In those instances in which we fund tenant improvements and the improvements are deemed to be owned by us, revenue recognition will commence when the improvements are substantially completed and possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. When we determine that the tenant allowances are lease incentives, we commence revenue recognition when possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant for tenant work to begin. The lease incentive is recorded as a deferred expense and amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. We recognize lease termination fees as rental revenue in the period received and write off unamortized leases related intangibles and other lease related account balances, provided that there are no further obligations under the lease. Otherwise, such fees and balances are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining obligation period.
Gains on sales of real estate are recognized based on the specific timing of the sale as measured against various criteria related to the terms of the transactions and any continuing involvement associated with the properties. If the sales criteria are not met, the gain is deferred and the finance, installment or cost recovery method, as appropriate, is applied until the sales criteria are met. To the extent we sell a property and retain a partial ownership interest in the property, we recognize gain to the extent of the third-party ownership interest.
Impairment of Real Estate. We evaluate the carrying value of all tangible and intangible real estate assets for possible impairment when an event or change in circumstance has occurred that indicates its carrying value may not be recoverable. The evaluation includes estimating and reviewing anticipated future undiscounted cash flows to be derived from the asset. If such cash flows are less than the asset's carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent by which the asset's carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. Estimating future cash flows is highly subjective and such estimates could differ materially from actual results.
Impairment of Equity Method Investments. We assess whether there are indicators that the value of our equity method investments may be impaired. An investment's value is impaired if we determine that a decline in the value of the investment below its carrying value is other-than-temporary. The assessment of impairment is highly subjective and involves the application of significant assumptions and judgments about our intent and ability to recover our investment given the nature and operations of the underlying investment, including the level of our involvement therein, among other factors. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated value of the investment.
Loans Receivable. We evaluate the collectability of both interest and principal of each of our loans, if circumstances warrant, to determine whether the loan is impaired. A loan is considered to be impaired, when based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. Significant judgments are required in determining whether impairment has occurred. When a loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of the loss accrual is calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's observable current market price or the fair value of the underlying collateral. Interest on impaired loans is recognized on a cash basis.
Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. We evaluate loans receivable where we participate in residual profits through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether we have the same risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture partner. Where we conclude that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, we reflect such loan receivable as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan receivable and we record capitalized interest during the construction period. In arrangements where we engage a developer to construct a property or provide funds to a tenant to develop a property, we will capitalize the funds provided to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period.
The accounting for these critical accounting policies and implementation of accounting guidance issued in the future involves the making of estimates based on current facts, circumstances and assumptions which could change in a manner that would materially affect management's future estimates with respect to such matters. Accordingly, future reported financial conditions and results could differ materially from financial conditions and results reported based on management's current estimates.
Cyber Security. While we have yet to experience a cyber attack that disrupted our operations in any material respect, all companies, including ours, need to allocate funds to address and protect against cybersecurity threats.

Liquidity
General. Since becoming a public company, our principal sources of liquidity have been (1) undistributed cash flows generated from our investments, (2) the public and private equity and debt markets, including issuances of OP units, (3) property specific debt, (4) corporate level borrowings, (5) commitments from co-investment partners and (6) proceeds from the sales of our investments.
Our ability to incur additional debt to fund acquisitions is dependent upon our existing leverage, the value of the assets we are attempting to leverage and general economic and credit market conditions, which may be outside of management's control or influence.
Cash Flows. We believe that cash flows from operations will continue to provide adequate capital to fund our operating and administrative expenses, regular debt service obligations and all dividend payments in accordance with REIT requirements in both the short-term and long-term. In addition, we anticipate that cash on hand, corporate level borrowings, capital recycling proceeds, issuances of equity and debt, mortgage proceeds and our other principal sources of liquidity will be available to provide the necessary capital required to fund our operations and allow us to grow.
Cash flows from operations as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows totaled $227.8 million for 2017, $235.3 million for 2016 and $244.9 million for 2015. Cash flows from operations have been decreasing primarily due to dispositions as we reshape our portfolio to have a higher concentration of industrial assets versus other asset types. The underlying drivers that impact working capital and therefore cash flows from operations are the timing of (1) the collection of rents and tenant reimbursements and loan interest payments from borrowers, and (2) the payment of interest on mortgage debt and operating and general and administrative costs. We believe the net-lease structure of the leases encumbering a majority of the properties in which we have an interest mitigates the risks of the timing of cash flows from operations since the payment and timing of operating costs related to the properties are generally borne directly by the tenant. Collection and timing of tenant rents is closely monitored by management as part of our cash management program.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $259.1 million in 2017, $10.2 million in 2016 and $388.3 million in 2015. Cash provided by investing activities related primarily to proceeds from the sale of properties, collection of loans receivable, distributions from non-consolidated entities in excess of accumulated earnings and changes in deposits and restricted cash. Cash used in investing activities related primarily to investments in real estate properties, co-investment programs and loans receivable, payments of deferred leasing costs and changes in deposits and restricted cash. Therefore, the fluctuation in investing activities relates primarily to the timing of investments and dispositions.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities totaled $52.5 million in 2017, $(231.7) million in 2016 and $45.5 million in 2015. Cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to net proceeds from the issuance of common shares, and non-recourse mortgage and corporate borrowings. Cash used in financing activities related primarily to dividend and distribution payments, repurchases of common shares, purchase/redemption of a noncontrolling interest, payments of deferred financing costs, payment of developer liabilities and debt payments and repurchases.
Public and Private Equity and Debt Markets. We access the public and private equity and debt markets when we (1) believe conditions are favorable and (2) have a compelling use of proceeds. During 2017, 2016 and 2015, we raised net proceeds of approximately $16.8 million, $12.2 million and $19.4 million, respectively, through the issuance of common shares, including option exercises. Due to the market price of our common shares, we limited the issuance of our common shares during most of 2017, 2016 and 2015. Due to our ample borrowing capacity under our unsecured credit revolving credit facility and proceeds from dispositions and mortgage financings, we did not access the public debt markets in 2017, 2016 or 2015.
During 2015, our Board of Trustees authorized a 10.0 million common share repurchase program. The share repurchase program does not expire. As of December 31, 2017, we had repurchased 3,400,912 common shares for an aggregate $27.3 million, which was at an average price of $8.04 per share. We have continued to, and in the future may, repurchase our common shares in the context of our overall capital plan, and to the extent we believe market volatility offers prudent investment opportunities based on our common share price versus net asset value per share.
We expect to continue to access debt and equity markets and other markets in the future to implement our business strategy and to fund future growth. However, general economic uncertainty and the volatility in these markets can make accessing these markets more difficult at times.

UPREIT Structure. Our UPREIT structure permits us to effect acquisitions by issuing OP units to a property owner as a form of consideration in exchange for the property. Substantially all outstanding OP units are redeemable by the holder at certain times on a one OP unit for approximately 1.13 common shares basis or, at our election, with respect to certain OP units, cash. Substantially all outstanding OP units require us to pay quarterly distributions to the holders of such OP units equal to the dividends paid to our common shareholders on an as redeemed basis and the remaining OP units have stated distributions in accordance with their applicable partnership agreement. To the extent that our dividend per share is less than a stated distribution per unit per the applicable partnership agreement, the stated distributions per unit are reduced by the percentage reduction in our dividend. We are party to a funding agreement with our operating partnership under which we may be required to fund distributions made on account of OP units. No OP units have a liquidation preference. In recent years there has not been a great demand for OP units and, as a result, we expect the number of common shares that will be outstanding in the future should be expected to increase, and income attributable to noncontrolling interests should be expected to decrease, as such OP units are redeemed for our common shares.
As of December 31, 2017, there were 3.2 million OP units outstanding which were convertible into 3.6 million common shares assuming we satisfied redemptions entirely with common shares. In recent years, few sellers of real estate have been seeking OP units as a form of consideration.
Property Specific Debt. As of December 31, 2017, our consolidated property owner subsidiaries had aggregate balloon payments of $6.6 million and $83.8 million maturing in 2018 and 2019, respectively. With respect to mortgages encumbering properties where the expected lease rental revenues are sufficient to provide an estimated property value in excess of the mortgage balance, we believe our property owner subsidiaries have sufficient sources of liquidity to meet these obligations through future cash flows from operations, the credit markets and, if determined appropriate by us, a capital contribution from us from either cash on hand ($107.8 million at December 31, 2017), property sale proceeds or borrowing capacity on our primary credit facility ($345.0 million as of December 31, 2017, subject to covenant compliance).
In the event that the estimated property value is less than the mortgage balance, as the mortgages encumbering the properties in which we have an interest are generally non-recourse to us and the property owner subsidiaries, a property owner subsidiary may, if appropriate, satisfy a mortgage obligation by transferring title of the property to the lender or permitting a lender to foreclose. There are significant risks associated with conveying properties to lenders through foreclosure which are described in "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report.
In 2017, 2016 and 2015, we obtained, through our consolidated property owner subsidiaries, $45.4 million, $254.7 million and $190.8 million, respectively, in non-recourse mortgage loans with interest rates ranging from 3.5% to 5.3% and maturity dates ranging from 2022 to 2036. Our secured debt decreased to approximately $697.1 million at December 31, 2017 compared to $745.2 million at December 31, 2016. We expect to continue to use property specific, non-recourse mortgages in certain situations as we believe that by properly matching a debt obligation, including the balloon maturity risk, with the terms of a lease, our cash-on-cash returns increase and the exposure to residual valuation risk is reduced. In addition, we may procure credit tenant lease financing in certain situations where we are able to monetize all or a significant portion of the rental revenues of a property at an attractive rate. We believe our financing strategy will also allow us to further lower our financing costs and improve our cash flow, financial flexibility and certain credit metrics.
Corporate Borrowings. The following Senior Notes were outstanding as of December 31, 2017:

Issue Date |  | Face Amount (millions) |  | Interest Rate |  | Maturity Date |  | Issue Price
May 2014 |  | $ | 250.0 |  |  | 4.40 | % |  | June 2024 |  | 99.883 | %
June 2013 |  | 250.0 |  |  | 4.25 | % |  | June 2023 |  | 99.026 | %
|  | $ | 500.0 |  |  |  |  |  |  |

The Senior Notes are unsecured and pay interest semi-annually in arrears. We may redeem the Senior Notes at our option at any time prior to maturity in whole or in part by paying the principal amount of the Senior Notes being redeemed plus a premium.

During 2017, our unsecured credit agreement with KeyBank National Association, as agent, was amended to, among other things, increase the overall facility to $1.105 billion. With lender approval, we can increase the size of the amended facility to an aggregate $2.01 billion. A summary of the significant terms are as follows:

|  | Maturity Date |  | Current Interest Rate
$505.0 Million Revolving Credit Facility(1) |  | 08/2019 |  | LIBOR + 1.00%
$300.0 Million Term Loan(2) |  | 08/2020 |  | LIBOR + 1.10%
$300.0 Million Term Loan(3) |  | 01/2021 |  | LIBOR + 1.10%

(1) | Maturity date can be extended to August 2020 at our option. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.85% to 1.55%. At December 31, 2017, the unsecured revolving credit facility had $160.0 million outstanding and availability of $345.0 million subject to covenant compliance.

(2) | Increased from $250.0 million. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.90% to 1.75%. We have aggregate interest-rate swap agreements to fix the LIBOR component at a weighted-average rate of 1.09% through February 2018 on $250.0 million of the $300.0 million outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings.

(3) | Increased from $255.0 million. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.90% to 1.75%. We have aggregate interest-rate swap agreements to fix the LIBOR component at a weighted-average rate of 1.42% through January 2019 on $255.0 million of of the $300.0 million outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings.

As of December 31, 2017, we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our corporate level debt agreements.
During 2007, we issued $200.0 million in Trust Preferred Securities, which bore interest at a fixed rate of 6.804% through April 2017 and, thereafter, bears interest at a variable rate of three month LIBOR plus 170 basis points. These securities are (1) classified as debt, (2) due in 2037 and (3) currently redeemable by us. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, there were $129.1 million of these securities outstanding.
Co-investment Programs and Joint Ventures. We have entered into co-investment programs and joint ventures with institutional investors and other real estate companies to mitigate our risk in certain assets and increase our return on equity to the extent we earn management or other fees. However, investments in co-investment programs and joint ventures limit our ability to make investment decisions unilaterally relating to the assets and limit our ability to deploy capital. Due to our size, we do not expect to enter into co-investment programs and joint ventures in the future, except with developers for build-to-suit opportunities.
Capital Recycling. Part of our strategy to effectively manage our balance sheet involves pursuing and executing well on property dispositions and recycling of capital. During 2017, we disposed of our interests in certain consolidated properties for a gross price of $229.1 million. These proceeds were used to retire indebtedness encumbering properties in which we have an interest and make investments. In addition, in 2017 we disposed of our interest in properties via foreclosure in full satisfaction of an aggregate $12.6 million of related non-recourse mortgages.
As capitalization rates have compressed in recent years, we have continued to look at opportunities to recycle capital with a focus on capturing the value of our multi-tenant and retail properties and reducing our exposure to the suburban office sector. The increase in asset values may result in our selling more properties than we acquire in any given year. We will continue to look at capital recycling opportunities as part of the ongoing effort to further transform our portfolio, with a greater emphasis on suburban office dispositions and non-core asset dispositions, in individual or portfolio transactions. We believe capital recycling (1) provides cost effective and timely capital support for our investment activities and (2) allows us to maintain line capacity and cash in advance of what we expect to be a growing investment pipeline.
Liquidity Needs. Our principal liquidity needs are the contractual obligations set forth under the heading “Contractual Obligations,” below, and the payment of dividends to our shareholders and distributions to the holders of OP units.

Table of Contents
As of December 31, 2017, we had approximately $2.1 billion of indebtedness, consisting of mortgages and notes payable outstanding, term loans, 4.40% and 4.25% Senior Notes and Trust Preferred Securities, with a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 3.6%. The ability of a property owner subsidiary to make debt service payments depends upon the rental revenues of its property and its ability to refinance the mortgage related thereto, sell the related property, or access capital from us or other sources. A property owner subsidiary's ability to accomplish such goals will be affected by numerous economic factors affecting the real estate industry, including the risks described under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report.
If we are unable to satisfy our contractual obligations and other operating costs with our cash flow from operations, we intend to use borrowings and proceeds from issuances of equity or debt securities. If a property owner subsidiary is unable to satisfy its contractual obligations and other operating costs, it may default on its obligations and lose its assets in foreclosure or through bankruptcy proceedings.
We elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 1993. If we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal corporate income taxes on our net taxable income that is currently distributed to shareholders.
In connection with our intention to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we expect to continue paying regular dividends to our shareholders. These dividends are expected to be paid from operating cash flows and/or from other sources. Since cash used to pay dividends reduces amounts available for capital investments, we generally intend to maintain a conservative dividend payout ratio, reserving such amounts as we consider necessary for the maintenance or expansion of properties in our portfolio, debt reduction, the acquisition of interests in new properties as suitable opportunities arise, and such other factors as our Board of Trustees considers appropriate.
We paid approximately $172.1 million in cash dividends to our common and preferred shareholders in 2017. Although our property owner subsidiaries receive the majority of our base rental payments on a monthly basis, we intend to continue paying dividends quarterly. Amounts accumulated in advance of each quarterly distribution are invested by us in short-term money market or other suitable instruments.
Capital Resources
General. Due to the net-lease structure of a majority of our investments, our property owner subsidiaries historically have not incurred significant expenditures in the ordinary course of business to maintain the properties in which we have an interest. As leases expire, we expect our property owner subsidiaries to incur costs in extending the existing tenant leases, re-tenanting the properties with a single-tenant, or converting the property to multi-tenant use. The amounts of these expenditures can vary significantly depending on tenant negotiations, market conditions and rental rates.
Single-Tenant Properties. We do not anticipate significant capital expenditures at the single-tenant properties in which we have an interest that are subject to net or similar leases since the tenants at these properties generally bear all or substantially all of the cost of property operations, maintenance and repairs. However, at certain properties subject to net leases, our property owner subsidiaries are responsible for replacement and/or repair of certain capital items, which may or may not be reimbursed. In addition, at certain single-tenant properties that are not subject to a net lease, our property owner subsidiaries have a level of property operating expense responsibility, which may or may not be reimbursed.
Multi-Tenant Properties. Primarily as a result of non-renewals at single-tenant net-lease properties, we have interests in multi-tenant properties in our consolidated portfolio. While tenants are generally responsible for increases over base year expenses, our property owner subsidiaries are generally responsible for the base-year expenses and capital expenditures, and are responsible for all expenses related to vacant space, at these properties.
Vacant Properties. To the extent there is a vacancy in a property, our property owner subsidiary would be obligated for all operating expenses, including capital expenditures, real estate taxes and insurance. When a property is vacant, our property owner subsidiary may incur substantial capital expenditure and releasing costs to re-tenant the property.
Property Expansions. Under certain leases, tenants have the right to expand the facility located on a property in which we have an interest. In the past, our property owner subsidiary has generally funded, and in the future our property owner subsidiary may fund, these property expansions with either additional secured borrowings, the repayment of which was, and will be, funded out of rental increases under the leases covering the expanded properties, or capital contributions from us.

Table of Contents
Ground Leases. The tenants of properties in which we have an interest generally pay the rental obligations on ground leases either directly to the fee holder or to our property owner subsidiary as increased rent. However, our property owner subsidiaries are responsible for these payments (1) under certain leases without reimbursement and (2) at vacant properties.
Environmental Matters. Based upon management's ongoing review of the properties in which we have an interest, management is not aware of any environmental condition with respect to any of these properties that would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance, however, that (1) the discovery of environmental conditions, which were previously unknown, (2) changes in law, (3) the conduct of tenants or (4) activities relating to properties in the vicinity of the properties in which we have an interest, will not expose us to material liability in the future. Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing on properties or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise adversely affect the operations of the tenants of properties in which we have an interest.
Results of Operations
Year ended December 31, 2017 compared with December 31, 2016. The decrease in total gross revenues in 2017 of $37.9 million was primarily attributable to a decrease in rental revenue of $38.2 million. The decrease in rental revenue was primarily due to a reduction of $66.1 million of rental revenue due to property sales, and a $14.1 million decrease in revenue recognized from lease terminations, partially offset by revenue from property acquisitions in 2017 and 2016 of $42.9 million.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $7.9 million primarily due to the acquisition of real estate properties in 2017 and 2016.
The increase in property operating expense of $1.8 million was primarily due to costs incurred on properties acquired in 2017 and 2016, costs incurred on vacant properties prior to sale and an increase in transaction costs, offset by reduced operating costs associated with sold properties.
The increase in general and administrative expense of $3.1 million was primarily due to an increase in professional fees, primarily legal costs incurred in a litigation.
The $2.05 million litigation settlement recognized in 2017 represents the settlement amount related to litigation disclosed in note 18 to our consolidated financial statements.
Non-operating income decreased by $2.7 million primarily due to the collection of loans receivable in 2017, partially offset by $3.9 million of earnings recognized in 2017 due to the write-off of unearned contingent acquisition consideration relating to a prior build-to-suit project.
The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $10.1 million was primarily due to the satisfaction of mortgage debt in connection with property sales and a decrease in the interest rate on our $129.1 million of trust preferred securities.
The change in debt satisfaction gains, net, of $7.2 million was primarily due to the timing of debt retirements, including foreclosures.
The decrease in impairment charges of $55.2 million related primarily to the impairment recognized on the sale of three land investments in New York, New York due to the write-off of the deferred rent receivable in 2016.
The decrease in gains on sales of properties of $18.1 million related primarily to the timing of sales of our properties.
The increase in the provision for income taxes of $0.5 million related primarily to state taxes.
The change in equity in earnings (losses) of non-consolidated entities of $8.4 million was primarily due to the timing of gains recognized on the sale of non-consolidated investments, partially offset by an impairment charge recognized in 2017 on our investment in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida where the sole tenant filed for bankruptcy.
The decrease in net income attributable to common shareholders of $10.0 million was primarily due to the items discussed above.

Table of Contents
Year ended December 31, 2016 compared with December 31, 2015. The decrease in total gross revenues in 2016 of $1.3 million was primarily attributable to a decrease in rental revenue of $1.4 million. The decrease in rental revenue was primarily due to a reduction of $37.5 million of rental revenue due to property sales and a reduction of $9.2 million due to changes in occupancy at certain properties, partially offset by revenue from property acquisitions and expansions of $32.2 million and $13.1 million in revenue recognized from lease terminations in 2016 and 2015.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $2.9 million primarily due to the acquisition of real estate properties in 2016 and 2015.
The decrease in property operating expense of $12.3 million was primarily due to the sale of properties, particularly multi-tenant properties, where we had operating expense obligations.
The increase in general and administrative expense of $1.8 million was primarily due to an increase in personnel costs.
Non-operating income increased by $1.6 million primarily due to the loan made to fund the construction of the build-to-suit project in Houston, Texas.
The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $1.7 million was primarily due to a reduction in outstanding indebtedness.
The decrease in debt satisfaction gains, net, of $26.1 million was primarily due to the timing of debt retirements, including foreclosures.
The increase in impairment charges of $63.4 million related primarily to the impairment recognized on the sale of three land investments in New York, New York due to the write-off of the deferred rent receivable.
The increase in gains on sales of properties of $58.2 million related primarily to the timing of sales of our properties.
The increase in the provision for income taxes of $0.9 million related primarily to state income taxes.
The increase in equity in earnings of non-consolidated entities of $5.8 million was primarily due to a $5.4 million gain recognized on the sale of our investment in an office property in Russellville, Arkansas.
Discontinued operations represent properties sold during 2015 which were held for sale as of December 31, 2014. We had no discontinued operations in 2016.
The decrease in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $2.4 million was primarily due to the limited partners' share of the impairment charges recognized by LCIF in 2016.
The decrease in net income attributable to common shareholders of $16.0 million was primarily due to the items discussed above.
The increase in net income or decrease in net loss in future periods will be closely tied to the level of acquisitions made by us. Without acquisitions, the sources of growth in net income are limited to fixed rent adjustments and index adjustments (such as the consumer price index), reduced interest expense on amortizing mortgages and variable rate indebtedness and by controlling other variable overhead costs. However, there are many factors beyond management's control that could offset these items including, without limitation, increased interest rates and tenant monetary defaults and the other risks described in this Annual Report.

Same-Store Results
Same-store net operating income, or NOI, which is a non-GAAP measure, represents the NOI for consolidated properties that were owned and included in our portfolio for three comparable reporting periods, excluding properties encumbered by mortgage loans in default and the revenue associated with the expansion of properties, as applicable. We define NOI as operating revenues (rental income (less GAAP rent adjustments and lease termination income), tenant reimbursements and other property income) less property operating expenses. As same-store NOI excludes the change in NOI from acquired and disposed of properties and certain other properties, it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates and operating costs on properties. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating same-store NOI, and accordingly same-store NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. Management believes that same-store NOI is a useful supplemental measure to be used by Management and investors to assess the Company's operating performance. However, same-store NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of the Company's financial performance since it does not reflect the operations of the Company's entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, acquisition-related expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization costs, other nonproperty income and losses, the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company's properties, or trends in development and construction activities which are significant economic costs and activities that could materially impact the Company's results of operations. Lexington believes that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to same-store NOI.
The following presents our consolidated same-store NOI, for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 ($000):

Total cash base rent | $ | 251,384 |  |  | $ | 249,954 |  |  | $ | 248,539 |
Tenant reimbursements | 22,134 |  |  | 22,811 |  |  | 23,930 |
Property operating expenses | (34,697 | ) |  | (33,346 | ) |  | (37,469 | )
Same-store NOI | $ | 238,821 |  |  | $ | 239,419 |  |  | $ | 235,000 |

Our reported same-store NOI decreased from 2016 to 2017 by 0.2% and increased by 1.9% from 2015 to 2016. The primary reason for the decrease in same-store NOI between 2017 and 2016 periods primarily related to vacancy. The increase in same-store NOI between 2016 and 2015 was primarily due to an increase in cash base rent and a reduction in property operating expenses. As of December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, our historical same-store square footage leased was 98.4%, 98.7% and 98.9%, respectively.

Funds From Operations
We believe that Funds from Operations, or FFO, which is a non-GAAP measure, is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. We believe FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. As a result, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing perspective that may not necessarily be apparent from net income.
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, defines FFO as “net income (or loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.” NAREIT clarified its computation of FFO to exclude impairment charges on depreciable real estate owned directly or indirectly. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.
We present FFO available to common shareholders and unitholders - basic and also present FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted on a company-wide basis as if all securities that are convertible, at the holder's option, into our common shares, are converted at the beginning of the period. We also present Adjusted Company FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted, which adjusts FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted for certain items which we believe are not indicative of the operating results of our real estate portfolio. We believe this is an appropriate presentation as it is frequently requested by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties. Since others do not calculate these measures in a similar fashion, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by others. These measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2017, we had investments in various real estate entities with varying structures. The real estate investments owned by these entities are generally financed with non-recourse debt. Non-recourse debt is generally defined as debt whereby the lenders' sole recourse with respect to borrower defaults is limited to the value of the assets collateralized by the debt. The lender generally does not have recourse against any other assets owned by the borrower or any of the members or partners of the borrower, except for certain specified exceptions listed in the particular loan documents. These exceptions generally relate to "bad boy" acts, including fraud, prohibited transfers and breaches of material representations. We have guaranteed such obligations for certain of our non-consolidated entities.
Contractual Obligations
The following summarizes our principal contractual obligations as of December 31, 2017 ($000's):

1. | Includes balloon payments.

2. | Includes variable-rate debt subject to interest rate swap agreements through swap expiration date. Interest payable related to variable-rate debt that is not subject to an interest rate swap agreement is not included in the above chart. Variable-rate debt is comprised of $129.1 million Trust Preferred Securities (90-day LIBOR plus 1.7% and matures 2037); $45.0 million term loan (LIBOR plus 1.1% and matures 2020); $50.0 million term loan (LIBOR plus 1.1% and matures 2019) and $160.0 million in revolving credit facility borrowings (LIBOR plus 1.0% and matures 2019). Also a $250.0 million term loan and $255.0 million term loan, which are subject to interest rate swap agreements that expire in 2018 and 2019, respectively, each bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.1% after expiration of the interest rate swap agreements.

3. | Includes ground lease payments and office rents. Amounts disclosed do not include rents that adjust to fair market value. In addition, certain ground lease payments due under bond leases allow for a right of offset between the lease obligation and the debt service and accordingly are not included.

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

Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P.
Overview
General. The Partnership was formed as a limited partnership on March 14, 1986 under the laws of the state of Delaware to invest in existing real estate properties net-leased to corporations or other entities.
The Partnership's purpose includes the conduct of any business that may be conducted lawfully by a limited partnership organized under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, except that the Partnership's partnership agreement requires business to be conducted in such a manner that will permit the Company to continue to be classified as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, unless the Company ceases to qualify as a REIT for reasons other than the conduct of the Partnership's business.
The Partnership's business is substantially the same as the business of the Company and includes investment in single-tenant assets; except that the Partnership is dependent on the Company for management of its operations and future investments. The Partnership does not have any employees, executive officers or board of directors. The Company also invests in assets and conducts its business directly and through other subsidiaries. The Company allocates investments to itself and its other subsidiaries or to the Partnership as it deems appropriate and in accordance with certain obligations under the Partnership's partnership agreement with respect to allocations of non-recourse liabilities.
The Company, through Lex GP and Lex LP, holds, as of December 31, 2017, 96.0% of the Partnership's outstanding OP units. The Partnership's remaining OP units are beneficially owned by E. Robert Roskind, Chairman of the Company, and certain non-affiliated investors. As the sole equity owner of the Partnership's general partner, the Company has the ability to control all of the day-to-day operations, subject to the terms of the Partnership's partnership agreement.
The Partnership's revenues and cash flows are generated predominantly from property rent receipts. As a result, growth in revenues and cash flows is directly correlated to the Partnership's ability to (1) acquire income producing real estate assets and (2) re-lease properties that are vacant, or may become vacant, at favorable rental rates. However, the Partnership's main objectives are to meet its distribution obligations and its obligations to allocate non-recourse liabilities to its partners and to operate in a manner as to permit the Company at all times to be classified as a REIT as required by the Partnership's partnership agreement.
Critical Accounting Policies. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require management to make estimates that affect the amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities reported and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. A summary of the Partnership's significant accounting policies, as applicable, which are important to the portrayal of the Partnership's financial condition and results of operations, is set forth in note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included in “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report.
The following is a summary of critical accounting policies, which require some of the most difficult, subjective and complex judgments.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. The financial statements reflect the Partnership's accounts and the accounts of its consolidated subsidiaries. The Partnership consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures, if any, which its controls through (1) voting rights or similar rights or (2) by means other than voting rights if it is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, which the Partnership refers to as a VIE. Entities which the Partnership does not control and entities which are VIEs in which the Partnership is not the primary beneficiary are generally accounted for by the equity method. Significant judgments and assumptions are made by Lex GP, as the Partnership's general partner, to determine whether an entity is a VIE, such as those regarding an entity's equity at risk, the entity's equityholders' obligations to absorb anticipated losses and other factors. In addition, the determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE requires judgment to determine the party that has (1) power over the significant activities of the VIE and (2) an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE.

Table of Contents
Judgments and Estimates. The Partnership's management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses to prepare the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions are based on the Partnership's management's best estimates and judgment. The Partnership's management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the economic environment. The Partnership's management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets, loans receivable and equity method investments and the useful lives of long-lived assets.
Purchase Accounting and Acquisition of Real Estate. The fair value of the real estate acquired, which includes the impact of fair value adjustments for assumed mortgage debt related to property acquisitions, is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values.
The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land, building and improvements and fixtures and equipment) is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant. The “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building and improvements based on the Partnership's management's determination of relative fair values of these assets. Factors considered by the Partnership's management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Partnership's management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. The Partnership's management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions.
In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market lease values are recorded based on the difference between the current in-place lease rent and management's estimate of current market rents. Below-market lease intangibles are recorded as part of deferred revenue and amortized into rental revenue over the non-cancelable periods and bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. Above-market leases are recorded as part of intangible assets and amortized as a direct charge against rental revenue over the non-cancelable portion of the respective leases.
The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases and tenant relationship values, is measured by the excess of (1) the purchase price paid for a property over (2) the estimated fair value of the property as if vacant, determined as set forth above. This aggregate value is allocated between in-place lease values and tenant relationship values based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease. The value of in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods and any bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationships is amortized to expense over the applicable lease term plus expected renewal periods.
Revenue Recognition. The Partnership recognizes lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the leased property. Revenue is recognized on a contractual basis for leases with escalations tied to a consumer price index with no floor. Renewal options in leases with rental terms that are lower than those in the primary term are excluded from the calculation of straight line rent if the renewals are not reasonably assured. If the Partnership funds tenant improvements and the improvements are deemed to be owned by the Partnership, revenue recognition will commence when the improvements are substantially completed and possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. If the Partnership's management determines that the tenant allowances are lease incentives, the Partnership commences revenue recognition when possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant for tenant work to begin. The lease incentive is recorded as a deferred expense and amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. The Partnership recognizes lease termination fees as rental revenue in the period received, and writes off unamortized lease-related intangibles and other lease-related account balances, provided that there are no further Partnership obligations under the lease. Otherwise, such fees and balances are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining obligation period.
Gains on sales of real estate are recognized based on the specific timing of the sale as measured against various criteria related to the terms of the transactions and any continuing involvement associated with the properties. If the sales criteria are not met, the gain is deferred and the finance, installment or cost recovery method, as appropriate, is applied until the sales criteria are met. To the extent the Partnership sells a property and retains a partial ownership interest in the property, the Partnership recognizes gain to the extent of the third-party ownership interest.

Table of Contents
Impairment of Real Estate. The Partnership's management evaluates the carrying value of all tangible and intangible real estate assets for possible impairment when an event or change in circumstance has occurred that indicates its carrying value may not be recoverable. The evaluation includes estimating and reviewing anticipated future undiscounted cash flows to be derived from the asset. If such cash flows are less than the asset's carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent by which the asset's carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. Estimating future cash flows is highly subjective and such estimates could differ materially from actual results.
Loans Receivable. The Partnership's management evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal of any loans receivable and, if circumstances warrant, to determine whether the loan is impaired. A loan is considered to be impaired, when based on current information and events, it is probable that the holder will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. Significant judgments are required in determining whether impairment has occurred. When a loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of the loss accrual is calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's observable current market price or the fair value of the underlying collateral. Interest on impaired loans is recognized on a cash basis.
Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. The Partnership's management evaluates loans receivable where it participates in residual profits through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether it has the same risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture partner. Where management concludes that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, such loan receivable is reflected as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan receivable and capitalized interest is recorded during the construction period. In arrangements where the Partnership engages a developer to construct a property or provide funds to a tenant to develop a property, the funds provided to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, are capitalized during the construction period.
The accounting for these critical accounting policies and implementation of accounting guidance issued in the future involves the making of estimates based on current facts, circumstances and assumptions which could change in a manner that would materially affect management's future estimates with respect to such matters. Accordingly, future reported financial conditions and results could differ materially from financial conditions and results reported based on management's current estimates.
Liquidity
General. The Partnership's principal sources of liquidity have been (1) undistributed cash flows generated from its investments, (2) the public and private equity and debt markets, including issuances of OP units to the Company, (3) property specific debt, (4) corporate level borrowings in conjunction with the Company and (5) proceeds from the sales of investments.
Cash Flows. The Partnership's management believes that cash flows from operations will continue to provide adequate capital to fund its operating and administrative expenses, regular debt service obligations and all distribution payments in accordance with its partnership agreement requirements in both the short-term and long-term. However, without a capital event, which would most likely involve the Company, the Partnership does not have the ability to fund balloon payments on maturing mortgages or acquire new investments.
Cash flows from operations as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows totaled $43.9 million, $38.9 million and $38.4 million for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in 2017 was primarily due to the impact of cash flow generated by acquisitions and interest cost savings due to mortgage satisfactions, partially offset by reduced cash flow attributable to sold properties. The underlying drivers that impact working capital and therefore cash flows from operations are the timing of (1) the collection of rents and tenant reimbursements and loan interest payments from borrowers, and (2) the payment of interest on mortgage debt and operating and general and administrative costs. The Partnership believes the net-lease structure of the leases encumbering a majority of the properties in which it has an interest mitigates the risks of the timing of cash flows from operations since the payment and timing of operating costs related to the properties are generally borne directly by the tenant. Collection and timing of tenant rents is closely monitored by management as part of the Partnership's cash management program. Cash flows from operations are also impacted by the level of acquisition volume and sales of properties.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities totaled $(81.4) million, $153.6 million and $(179.4) million in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Cash used in investing activities related primarily to investments in real estate properties and co-investment programs, payments of deferred leasing costs and changes in deposits and restricted cash. Cash provided by investing activities related primarily to proceeds from the sale of properties, collection of loans receivable, distributions from non-consolidated entities in excess of accumulated earnings and changes in escrow deposits and restricted cash. Therefore, the fluctuation in investing activities relates primarily to the timing of investments and dispositions.

Table of Contents
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities totaled $36.4 million, $(159.6) million and $151.8 million in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to net proceeds from borrowings and related party advances, net. Cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to distribution payments, redemption of OP units, debt payments and payments of deferred financing costs.
OP units. Substantially all outstanding OP units (other than OP units held by the Company) are redeemable by the holder of the OP unit at certain times for approximately 1.13 common shares of Lexington per one OP unit or, at Lex GP’s election, with respect to certain OP units, cash. Substantially all outstanding OP units require the operating partnership to pay quarterly distributions to the holders of such OP units equal to the dividends paid to the Company's common shareholders on an as redeemed basis and the remaining OP units have stated distributions in accordance with their respective partnership agreement. To the extent that the Company's dividend per share is less than a stated distribution per OP unit per the applicable partnership agreement, the stated distributions per OP unit are reduced by the percentage reduction in the Company's dividend. The Partnership and the Company are parties to a funding agreement under which the Company may be required to fund distributions made on account of OP units. No OP units have a liquidation preference.
As of 2017, the Partnership had a total of approximately 3.2 million aggregate OP units outstanding other than OP units held by the Company.
In recent years, few sellers of real estate have been seeking OP units as a form of consideration. Therefore, the number of OP units not owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company that will be outstanding in the future may decrease as such OP units are redeemed for the Company's common shares.
Property Specific Debt. As of December 31, 2017, the Partnership had $214.3 million of consolidated property specific debt outstanding. As of December 31, 2017, the Partnership had no property specific debt with related balloon payments maturing in 2018 and $31.8 million of balloon payments maturing in 2019. If a mortgage is unable to be refinanced upon maturity, the Partnership will be dependent on the Company's liquidity resources to satisfy such mortgage to avoid transferring the underlying property to the lender or selling the underlying property to a third party.
In the event that the estimated property value is less than the mortgage balance, as the mortgages encumbering the properties in which the Partnership has an interest are generally non-recourse to LCIF and the property owner subsidiaries, a property owner subsidiary may, if appropriate, satisfy a mortgage obligation by transferring the title of the property to the lender or permitting a lender to foreclose. There are significant risks associated with conveying properties to lenders through foreclosure which are described in "Risk Factors" included elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this Annual Report.
Corporate Borrowings. The Partnership, together with the Company, is a borrower under the Company's corporate borrowing facilities. Outstanding indebtedness is recorded on the books of the applicable borrower requesting and receiving the proceeds of such indebtedness but is adjusted in accordance with LCIF's partnership agreement. However, the Partnership does not have the independent ability without the Company to obtain funds from such borrowing facilities.
Acquisitions. During 2017, the Partnership purchased two industrial properties and completed one built-to-suit office property for an aggregate cost of $132.6 million. In 2016 and 2015, the Partnership purchased one industrial property in each year for a cost of $52.7 million and $152.0 million, respectively.
Capital Recycling. Part of the Partnership's strategy to effectively manage its balance sheet involves pursuing and executing well on property dispositions and recycling of capital. During 2017 and 2016, the Partnership sold certain properties for a gross sales price of $18.8 million and $501.8 million ($375.7 million of which was from the New York, New York land sales), respectively. The Partnership did not sell any properties in 2015. The net proceeds received from the dispositions were primarily used to retire indebtedness and make new investments.
Liquidity Needs. The Partnership's principal liquidity needs are the contractual obligations set forth below under “–Contractual Obligations” and the payment of distributions to the holders of OP units, each as applicable.
If the Partnership is unable to satisfy its liquidity needs with cash flow from operations, the Partnership intends to use borrowings, including from the Company, and, with respect to distributions to the holders of OP units, the funding agreement described above. If such borrowings are unavailable, the Partnership or one of its subsidiaries may default on its obligations or lose its assets in foreclosure or through bankruptcy proceedings.

Capital Resources
General. Due to the net-lease structure of a majority of its investments, the Partnership historically has not incurred significant expenditures in the ordinary course of business to maintain the properties in which it has an interest. As leases expire, the Partnership expects its property owner subsidiaries to incur costs in extending the existing tenant leases, re-tenanting the properties with a single-tenant, or converting the property to multi-tenant use. The amounts of these expenditures can vary significantly depending on tenant negotiations, market conditions and rental rates.
Single-Tenant Properties. The Partnership does not anticipate significant capital expenditures at the single-tenant properties in which it has an interest since these properties are generally subject to net or similar leases where the tenants at these properties bear all or substantially all of the cost of property operations, maintenance and repairs. However, at certain properties subject to net-leases, the Partnership is responsible for replacement and/or repair of certain capital items, which may or may not be reimbursed. In addition, at certain single-tenant properties that are not subject to a net-lease, the Partnership has a level of property operating expense responsibility, which may or may not be reimbursed.
Multi-Tenant Properties. Primarily as a result of non-renewals at single-tenant net-lease properties, the Partnership may have interests in multi-tenant properties. While tenants are generally responsible for increases over base year expenses, the landlord would be generally responsible for the base-year expenses and capital expenditures, and are responsible for all expenses related to vacant space, at these properties.
Vacant Properties. To the extent there is a vacancy in a property, the Partnership would be obligated for all operating expenses, including capital expenditures, real estate taxes and insurance. When a property is vacant, the Partnership may incur substantial capital expenditure and re-leasing costs to re-tenant the property.
Property Expansions. Under certain leases, tenants have the right to expand the facility located on a property in which the Partnership has an interest. In the past, these expansions have generally been funded, and in the future the Partnership expects these expansions to generally be funded, with either additional secured borrowings, the repayment of which was, and will be, funded out of rental increases under the leases covering the expanded properties, borrowings under the Company's unsecured revolving credit facility or capital contributions from the Company.
Ground Leases. The tenants of properties in which the Partnership has an interest generally pay the rental obligations on ground leases either directly to the fee holder or to the landlord as increased rent. However, the Partnership is responsible for these payments under certain leases without reimbursement and at vacant properties.
Environmental Matters. Based upon management's ongoing review of the properties in which the Partnership has an interest, management is not aware of any environmental condition with respect to any of these properties, which would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance, however, that (1) the discovery of environmental conditions, which were previously unknown, (2) changes in law, (3) the conduct of tenants or (4) activities relating to properties in the vicinity of the properties in which the Partnership has an interest, will not expose the Partnership to material liability in the future. Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing on properties or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise adversely affect the operations of the tenants of properties in which the Partnership has an interest.

Results of Operations
Year ended December 31, 2017 compared with the year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease in total gross revenues in 2017 of $41.4 million was primarily attributable to a decrease in rental revenue of $40.7 million and a decrease in tenant reimbursements of $0.7 million. The decrease in rental revenue was primarily due to a reduction of $40.7 million of rental revenue due to the sales of properties and $9.7 million due to a decrease in lease termination revenue, offset in part by new property acquisition revenue of $8.9 million. The decrease in tenant reimbursements was due to the sales of properties and a decrease in reimbursable property operating costs.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $3.0 million primarily due to the acquisition of properties in 2017 and 2016, offset in part by the impact of property sales.
The decrease in property operating expense of $1.9 million was primarily due to the sale of properties in 2016, including multi-tenanted and/or vacant properties, with operating expense responsibilities.
The decrease in general and administrative expense of $2.8 million was primarily due to a decrease in allocation of costs from Lexington, which allocation is based on gross rental revenue.
The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $11.3 million was primarily due to the reduction in mortgage debt assumed by the buyers in connection with the sale of the New York, New York land investments in 2016 and a decrease in the allocation of interest and amortization expense from Lexington.
The decrease in debt satisfaction charges, net, of $7.4 million related primarily to the satisfaction of non-recourse mortgage loans in connection with the sales of properties in 2016.
The impairment charges in 2017 of $12.1 million primarily related to impairment charges recognized on three vacant or partially vacant office properties, and impairment charges in 2016 of $72.1 million primarily related to an impairment charge recognized upon the sale of three New York, New York land investments.
The change in gains on sales of properties of $31.9 million related to the timing of sales of properties.
The increase in net income of $7.5 million was primarily due to the items discussed above.
Year ended December 31, 2016 compared with the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease in total gross revenues in 2016 of $3.8 million was primarily attributable to a decrease in rental revenue of $2.4 million and a decrease in tenant reimbursements of $1.4 million. The decrease in rental revenue was primarily due to a reduction of $23.3 million of rental revenue due to the sales of properties and a change in occupancy at certain properties, offset in part by new property acquisition and expansion revenue and lease termination revenue of $20.5 million. The decrease in tenant reimbursements was due to the sales of properties and a decrease in reimbursable property operating costs.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $3.6 million primarily due to the acquisition of the Richland, Washington property, offset in part by the impact of property sales.
The decrease in property operating expense of $2.6 million was primarily due to the sale of properties in 2016, including multi-tenanted properties, with operating expense responsibilities.
The increase in general and administrative expense of $1.0 million was primarily due to a greater allocation of costs from Lexington, which allocation is based on gross rental revenue.
The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $2.0 million was primarily due to the reduction in mortgage debt assumed by the buyers in connection with the sale of the New York, New York land investments in 2016 and an increase in capitalized interest, partially offset by interest and amortization expense on the Richland, Washington loan, which was obtained in 2015.
The increase in debt satisfaction charges, net, of $7.4 million related primarily to the satisfaction of non-recourse mortgage loans in connection with the sales of the properties.
The impairment charges in 2016 of $72.1 million primarily related to an impairment charge recognized upon the sale of three New York, New York land investments and impairment charges in 2015 of $0.8 million related to an impairment on a parcel of land in Clive, Iowa.
The gains on sales of properties in 2016 of $36.4 million related primarily to the timing of sales of properties.

Table of Contents
The decrease in net income of $46.2 million was primarily due to the items discussed above.
The increase in net income in future periods will be closely tied to the level of acquisitions made by us. Without acquisitions and favorable leasing activity, the sources of growth in net income are limited to fixed rent adjustments and index-adjusted rents (such as the consumer price index), reduced interest expense on amortizing mortgages and debt refinancings and by controlling other variable overhead costs. However, there are many factors beyond management's control that could offset these items, including, without limitation, increased interest rates, decreased occupancy rates, tenant monetary defaults, delayed acquisitions and the other risks described in this Annual Report.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Partnership is co-borrower or guarantor of corporate borrowing facilities and debt securities of the Company. In addition, the Partnership, from time to time, guarantees certain tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of subsidiaries when required by the related tenant or lender. However, the Partnership does not believe these guarantees are material to the Partnership, as the obligations under and risks associated with such guarantees are priced into the rent under the lease or the value of the property.
Contractual Obligations
The following summarizes the Partnership's principal contractual obligations as of December 31, 2017 ($000's):

|  | 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 and Thereafter |  | Total

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market-Risk
Our exposure to market risk relates primarily to our variable-rate indebtedness not subject to interest rate swaps and our fixed-rate debt. Our consolidated aggregate principal variable-rate indebtedness was $384.1 million at December 31, 2017, which represented 18.4% of our aggregate principal consolidated indebtedness. We had no consolidated variable-rate indebtedness outstanding at December 31, 2016. During 2017 and 2016, our variable-rate indebtedness had a weighted-average interest rate of 2.7% and 1.4%, respectively. Had the weighted-average interest rate been 100 basis points higher, our interest expense for 2017 and 2016 would have increased by $1.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, our aggregate principal consolidated fixed-rate debt was $1.7 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, which represented 81.6% and 100.0%, respectively, of our aggregate principal indebtedness.
For certain of our financial instruments, fair values are not readily available since there are no active trading markets as characterized by current exchanges between willing parties. Accordingly, we derive or estimate fair values using various valuation techniques, such as computing the present value of estimated future cash flows using discount rates commensurate with the risks involved. However, the determination of estimated cash flows may be subjective and imprecise. Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values. The following fair value was determined using the interest rates that we believe our outstanding fixed-rate debt would warrant as of December 31, 2017 and is indicative of the interest rate environment as of December 31, 2017, and does not take into consideration the effects of subsequent interest rate fluctuations. Accordingly, we estimate that the fair value of our fixed-rate debt was $1.7 billion as of December 31, 2017.
Our interest rate risk objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate fluctuations on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates through the use of fixed-rate debt instruments to the extent that reasonably favorable rates are obtainable with such arrangements. We generally enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps or caps to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument or to effectively lock the interest rate on a portion of our variable-rate debt. As of December 31, 2017, we have ten interest rate swap agreements in our consolidated portfolio.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 26, 2018, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Lexington Realty Trust and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2017, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, of the Company and our report dated February 26, 2018, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
71

Table of Contents
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

LEXINGTON REALTY TRUST AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
($000, except share/unit data)
(1) The Company
Lexington Realty Trust (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except when the context only applies to the parent entity, the “Company”) is a Maryland statutory real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns a diversified portfolio of equity investments in single-tenant commercial properties.
As of December 31, 2017, the Company had equity ownership interests in approximately 175 consolidated properties located in 37 states. The properties in which the Company has an interest are primarily net-leased to tenants in various industries.
The Company believes it has qualified as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Accordingly, the Company will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. The Company is permitted to participate in certain activities from which it was previously precluded in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) under the Code. As such, the TRS are subject to federal income taxes on the income from these activities.
The Company conducts its operations either directly or indirectly through (1) property owner subsidiaries and lender subsidiaries, which are single purpose entities, (2) an operating partnership, Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. (“LCIF”), in which the Company is the sole unit holder of the general partner and the sole unit holder of the limited partner that holds a majority of the limited partner interests, (3) a wholly-owned TRS, Lexington Realty Advisors, Inc. (“LRA”), and (4) investments in joint ventures. References to “OP Units” refer to units of limited partner interests in LCIF. Property owner subsidiaries are landlords under leases for properties in which the Company has an interest and/or borrowers under loan agreements secured by properties in which the Company has an interest and lender subsidiaries are lenders under loan agreements where the Company made an investment in a loan asset, but in all cases are separate and distinct legal entities. Each property owner subsidiary is a separate legal entity that maintains separate books and records. The assets and credit of each property owner subsidiary with a property subject to a mortgage loan are not available to creditors to satisfy the debt and other obligations of any other person, including any other property owner subsidiary or any other affiliate. Consolidated entities that are not property owner subsidiaries do not directly own any of the assets of a property owner subsidiary (or the general partner, member or managing member of such property owner subsidiary), but merely hold partnership, membership or beneficial interest therein, which interests are subordinate to the claims of such property owner subsidiary's (or its general partner's, member's or managing member's) creditors.

(2) | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Entities which the Company does not control and entities which are VIEs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for under appropriate GAAP.
The Company is the primary beneficiary of certain VIEs as it has a controlling financial interest in these entities. LCIF, which is consolidated and in which the Company has an approximate 96% interest, is a VIE. See the consolidated financial statements of LCIF included within this Annual Report.
The Company had a joint venture limited partnership that owned the Lake Jackson, Texas property, with a developer which was a consolidated VIE. In 2017, upon the closeout of the build-to-suit project, the developer earned notional capital of $7,951, which was simultaneously redeemed by the limited partnership for $7,951. The Company treated the payment as a reduction in shareholders equity in accordance with ASC 810-10-45-23. As of December 31, 2017, the limited partnership, which is still consolidated, is wholly-owned by the Company and no longer a VIE.

The assets of each VIE are only available to satisfy such VIE's respective liabilities. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the VIEs' mortgages and notes payable were non-recourse to the Company. Below is a summary of selected financial data of consolidated VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016:

Earnings Per Share. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) reduced by preferred dividends and amounts allocated to certain non-vested share-based payment awards, if applicable, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share amounts are similarly computed but include the effect, when dilutive, of in-the-money common share options and non-vested common shares, OP units and put options of certain convertible securities.
Use of Estimates. Management has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the economic environment. Management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets, loans receivable and equity method investments, valuation of derivative financial instruments, valuation of compensation plans and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Fair Value Measurements. The Company follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("Topic 820"), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk. The Company has formally elected to apply the portfolio exception within Topic 820 with respect to measuring counterparty risk for all of its derivative transactions subject to master netting arrangements.

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the leased property. Revenue is recognized on a contractual basis for leases with escalations tied to a consumer price index with no floor. Renewal options in leases with rental terms that are lower than those in the primary term are excluded from the calculation of straight-line rent if the renewals are not reasonably assured. If the Company funds tenant improvements and the improvements are deemed to be owned by the Company, revenue recognition will commence when the improvements are substantially completed and possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. If the Company determines that the tenant allowances are lease incentives, the Company commences revenue recognition when possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant for tenant work to begin. The lease incentive is recorded as a deferred expense and amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. The Company recognizes lease termination fees as rental revenue in the period received and writes off unamortized lease-related intangible and other lease-related account balances, provided there are no further Company obligations under the lease. Otherwise, such fees and balances are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining obligation period with the termination payments being recorded as a component of rent receivable-deferred on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Gains on sales of real estate are recognized based upon the specific timing of the sale as measured against various criteria related to the terms of the transactions and any continuing involvement associated with the properties. If the sales criteria are not met, the gain is deferred and the finance, installment or cost recovery method, as appropriate, is applied until the sales criteria are met. To the extent the Company sells a property and retains a partial ownership interest in the property, the Company recognizes gain to the extent of the third-party ownership interest.
Purchase Accounting and Acquisition of Real Estate. The fair value of the real estate acquired, which includes the impact of fair value adjustments for assumed mortgage debt related to property acquisitions, is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values. Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred and are included in property operating expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land, building and improvements and fixtures and equipment) is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant. The “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building and improvements based on management's determination of relative fair values of these assets. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions. Management generally retains a third party to assist in the allocations.
In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market lease values are recorded based on the difference between the current in-place lease rent and management's estimate of current market rents. Below-market lease intangibles are recorded as part of deferred revenue and amortized into rental revenue over the non-cancelable periods and bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. Above-market leases are recorded as part of intangible assets and amortized as a direct charge against rental revenue over the non-cancelable portion of the respective leases.
The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases and tenant relationship values, is measured by the excess of (1) the purchase price paid for a property over (2) the estimated fair value of the property as if vacant, determined as set forth above. This aggregate value is allocated between in-place lease values and tenant relationship values based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease. The value of in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods and any bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationships is amortized to expense over the applicable lease term plus expected renewal periods.
Depreciation is determined by the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic useful lives of the properties. The Company generally depreciates its real estate assets over periods ranging up to 40 years.

Impairment of Real Estate. The Company evaluates the carrying value of all tangible and intangible real estate assets held for investment for possible impairment when an event or change in circumstance has occurred that indicates its carrying value may not be recoverable. The evaluation includes estimating and reviewing anticipated future undiscounted cash flows to be derived from the asset. If such cash flows are less than the asset's carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent by which the asset's carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value, which may be below the balance of any non-recourse financing. Estimating future cash flows and fair values is highly subjective and such estimates could differ materially from actual results.
Investments in Non-Consolidated Entities. The Company accounts for its investments in 50% or less owned entities under the equity method, unless consolidation is required. If the Company's investment in the entity is insignificant and the Company has no influence over the control of the entity then the entity is accounted for under the cost method.
Impairment of Equity Method Investments. The Company assesses whether there are indicators that the value of its equity method investments may be impaired. An impairment charge is recognized only if the Company determines that a decline in the value of the investment below its carrying value is other-than-temporary. The assessment of impairment is highly subjective and involves the application of significant assumptions and judgments about the Company's intent and ability to recover its investment given the nature and operations of the underlying investment, including the level of the Company's involvement therein, among other factors. To the extent an impairment is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment.
Loans Receivable. Loans held for investment are intended to be held to maturity and, accordingly, are carried at cost, net of unamortized loan origination costs and fees, loan purchase discounts, and net of an allowance for loan losses when such loan is deemed to be impaired. Loan origination costs and fees and loan purchase discounts are amortized over the term of the loan. The Company considers a loan impaired when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due for both principal and interest according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Significant judgments are required in determining whether impairment has occurred. The Company performs an impairment analysis by comparing either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's observable current market price or the fair value of the underlying collateral to the net carrying value of the loan, which may result in an allowance and corresponding loan loss charge. Interest income is recorded on a cash basis for impaired loans.
Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. The Company evaluates loans receivable where the Company participates in residual profits through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether the Company has the same risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture partner. Where the Company concludes that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, the Company reflects such loan receivable as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan receivable and the Company records capitalized interest during the construction period. In arrangements where the Company engages a developer to construct a property or provide funds to a tenant to develop a property, the Company will capitalize the funds provided to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period.
Properties Held For Sale. Assets and liabilities of properties that meet various held for sale criteria, including whether it is probable that a sale will occur within 12 months, are presented separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Commencing January 1, 2015, the operating results of these properties are reflected as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations only if the sale of these assets represents a strategic shift in operations; if not, the operating results are included in continuing operations. Properties classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of net carrying value or estimated fair value less costs to sell and depreciation and amortization are no longer recognized. Properties that do not meet the held for sale criteria are accounted for as operating properties.
Deferred Expenses. Deferred expenses consist primarily of revolving line of credit debt and leasing costs. Debt costs are amortized using the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method, over the terms of the debt instruments and leasing costs are amortized over the term of the related lease.

($000, except share/unit data)
Derivative Financial Instruments. The Company accounts for its interest rate swap agreements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("Topic 815"). In accordance with Topic 815, these agreements are carried on the balance sheet at their respective fair values, as an asset if fair value is positive, or as a liability if fair value is negative. If the interest rate swap is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the interest rate swap's change in fair value is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss); the ineffective portion, if any, is recognized in earnings as an increase or decrease to interest expense.
Upon entering into hedging transactions, the Company documents the relationship between the interest rate swap agreement and the hedged item. The Company also documents its risk-management policies, including objectives and strategies, as they relate to its hedging activities. The Company assesses, both at inception of a hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether or not the hedge is highly effective. The Company will discontinue hedge accounting on a prospective basis with changes in the estimated fair value reflected in earnings when (1) it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting cash flows of a hedged item (including forecasted transactions), (2) it is no longer probable that the forecasted transaction will occur or (3) it is determined that designating the derivative as an interest rate swap is no longer appropriate. The Company does and may continue to utilize interest rate swap and cap agreements to manage interest rate risk, but does not anticipate entering into derivative transactions for speculative trading purposes.
Stock Compensation. The Company maintains an equity participation plan. Non-vested share grants generally vest either based upon (1) time, (2) performance and/or (3) market conditions. Options granted under the plan in 2010 vested over a five-year period and expire ten years from the date of grant. Options granted under the plan in 2008 vested upon attainment of certain market performance measures and expire ten years from the date of grant. All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations based on their fair values.
Tax Status. The Company has made an election to qualify, and believes it is operating so as to qualify, as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code.
The Company is permitted to participate in certain activities from which it was previously precluded in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries under the Code. As such, the Company is subject to federal and state income taxes on the income from these activities.
Income taxes, primarily related to the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries, are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash. Restricted cash is comprised primarily of cash balances held in escrow by lenders.
Environmental Matters. Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, an owner of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under such property as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. These liabilities may include government fines, penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence or disposal of such substances. Although most of the tenants of properties in which the Company has an interest are primarily responsible for any environmental damage and claims related to the leased premises, in the event of the bankruptcy or inability of the tenant of such premises to satisfy any obligations with respect to such environmental liability, or if the tenant is not responsible, the Company's property owner subsidiary may be required to satisfy any such obligations, should they exist. In addition, the property owner subsidiary, as the owner of such a property, may be held directly liable for any such damages or claims irrespective of the provisions of any lease. As of December 31, 2017, the Company was not aware of any environmental matter relating to any of its investments that would have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Segment Reporting. The Company operates generally in one industry segment, single-tenant real estate assets.
Reclassifications. Certain amounts included in prior years' financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.
Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends the guidance for revenue recognition to eliminate the industry-specific revenue recognition guidance and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. The effective date of the new guidance was updated by ASU 2015-14 and is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company’s revenue-producing contracts are primarily leases that are not within the scope of this standard as leases are excluded from ASU 2014-09. The Company expects that it may be impacted upon adoption of ASU 2014-09 in its recognition of non-lease revenue, non-lease components of revenue from lease agreements (upon adoption of ASU 2016-02) and the timing of its recognition of real estate sale transactions. Under ASU 2014-09, revenue recognition for real estate sales is largely based on the transfer of control and the buyer having the ability to direct the use of, or obtain substantially all of the remaining benefit from, the asset (which generally will occur on the closing date); the factor of continuing involvement is no longer a specific consideration for the timing of recognition. As a result, the Company generally expects that the new guidance may result in transactions qualifying as sales of real estate at an earlier date than under current accounting guidance. The Company believes the impact would be limited to the timing and income statement presentation of revenue and not the total amount of revenue recognized over time. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach, and, as the majority of the Company’s revenue is from rental income related to leases, the Company does not believe the ASU will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for those leases classified as operating leases at the commencement date that have lease terms of more than 12 months and amends certain lessor guidance. The ASU is expected to result in the recognition of a right-to-use asset and related liability to account for the Company's future obligations under its ground lease arrangements for which the Company is the lessee. From a lessor perspective, the Company expects that lease components will primarily be recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ASU 2016-02 originally stated that companies would be required to bifurcate certain lease revenues between lease and non-lease components, however, the FASB issued an exposure draft in January 2018 (2018 Exposure Draft) which, if adopted as written, would allow lessors a practical expedient by class of underlying assets to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component if certain criteria are met. Additionally, ASU 2016-02 will require that the Company capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. ASU 2016-02 originally required a modified retrospective method of adoption, however, the 2018 Exposure Draft indicates that companies may be permitted to recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The pronouncement allows some optional practical expedients. The Company expects to adopt this new guidance on January 1, 2019 and will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance until it becomes effective.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation-Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718), which involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this new guidance on January 1, 2017. This new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for share-based award forfeitures in compensation costs when they occur.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years; however, early adoption is permitted. Entities must apply the guidance retrospectively to all periods presented but may apply it prospectively if retrospective application would be impracticable. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2018. The Company does not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

($000, except share/unit data)
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which clarifies guidance on the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. Upon adoption, restricted cash balances will be included along with cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the period and beginning of period, respectively, in the Company's consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods presented. Upon adoption, separate line items showing changes in restricted cash balances will be eliminated from the Company's consolidated statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2018.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects that acquisitions of real estate or in-substance real estate will not meet the revised definition of a business and thus will be treated as asset acquisitions. Acquisition costs for those acquisitions that are not businesses will be capitalized rather than expensed. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2018. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Topic 610-20), which requires that all entities account for the derecognition of a business in accordance with ASC 810, including instances in which the business is considered in-substance real estate. The ASU requires the Company to measure at fair value any retained interest in a partial sale of real estate. The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted ASU 2017-05 effective January 1, 2018 and it is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU-2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which amends the hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements in Topic 815. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

(3) | Earnings Per Share

A significant portion of the Company's non-vested share-based payment awards are considered participating securities and as such, the Company is required to use the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Under the two-class computation method, net losses are not allocated to participating securities unless the holder of the security has a contractual obligation to share in the losses. The non-vested share-based payment awards are not allocated losses as the awards do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses of the Company.
The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017:

The Company assesses on a regular basis whether there are any indicators that the carrying value of real estate assets may be impaired. Potential indicators may include an increase in vacancy at a property, tenant financial instability and the potential sale of the property in the near future. An asset is determined to be impaired if the asset's carrying value is in excess of its estimated fair value.
As a result, during 2017, 2016 and 2015, the Company recognized impairment charges of $39,702, $100,195 and $36,832 on assets that were sold, impaired prior to sale or held for use.

(6) | Loans Receivable

As of December 31, 2017, all of the Company's loans receivable were fully satisfied. As of December 31, 2016, the Company's loans receivable were comprised primarily of mortgage loans on real estate.
The following is a summary of the Company's loans receivable as of December 31, 2016:

| Loan carrying-value(1) |  |  |
Loan |  |  | 12/31/2016 |  | Interest Rate |  | Maturity Date
Kennewick, WA(2) |  |  | $ | 85,709 |  |  | 9.00 | % |  | 05/2022
Oklahoma City, OK(3) |  |  | 8,501 |  |  | 11.50 | % |  | 03/2016

(3) | In June 2015, the Company loaned a tenant-in-common $8,420. The loan was secured by the tenant-in-common's interest in an office property, in which the Company had a 40% tenant-in-common interest. The loan was satisfied in full in February 2017. The Company incurred professional fees of $376 to collect this loan. Such fees are included in general and administrative expenses on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2017.

(7) | Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall:

The table below sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of December 31, 2017 and 2016:

| As of December 31, 2017 |  | As of December 31, 2016
| Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value |  | Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value
Assets |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Loans Receivable | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 94,210 |  |  | $ | 94,911 |
Liabilities |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Debt | $ | 2,068,867 |  |  | $ | 2,013,226 |  |  | $ | 1,860,598 |  |  | $ | 1,814,824 |

The majority of the inputs used to value the Company's interest rate swap assets (liabilities) fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, such as observable market interest rate curves; however, the credit valuation associated with the interest rate swap assets (liabilities) utilizes Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company determined that the credit valuation adjustment relative to the overall interest rate swap assets (liabilities) is not significant. As a result, all interest rate swap assets (liabilities) have been classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Company estimates the fair value of its real estate assets, including non-consolidated real estate assets, by using income and market valuation techniques. The Company may estimate fair values using market information such as broker opinions of value, recent sale offers or discounted cash flow models, which primarily rely on Level 3 inputs. The cash flow models include estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. These cash flows may include contractual rental revenues, projected future rental revenues and expenses and forecasted tenant improvements and lease commissions based upon market conditions determined through discussion with local real estate professionals, experience the Company has with its other owned properties in such markets and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are estimated by management based upon rates that management believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties based upon an analysis of factors such as property and tenant quality, geographical location and local supply and demand observations. To the extent the Company under-estimates forecasted cash outflows (tenant improvements, lease commissions and operating costs) or over-estimates forecasted cash inflows (rental revenue rates), the estimated fair value of its real estate assets could be overstated.
The Company estimated the fair values of its loans receivable utilizing Level 3 inputs by using an estimated discounted cash flow analysis consisting of scheduled cash flows and discount rate estimates to approximate those that a willing buyer and seller might use and/or the estimated value of the underlying collateral.
The fair value of the Company's debt is primarily estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs by using a discounted cash flow analysis, based upon estimates of market interest rates. The Company determines the fair value of its Senior Notes using market prices. The inputs used in determining the fair value of these notes are categorized as Level 1 due to the fact that the Company uses quoted market rates to value these instruments. However, the inputs used in determining the fair value could be categorized as Level 2 if trading volumes are low.
Fair values cannot be determined with precision, may not be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets and may not be realized upon sale. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates, liquidity risks and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts.
Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. The Company estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of the instruments.

(11) | Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives. The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the type, amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company's derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company's known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company's investments and borrowings.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk. The Company's objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense, to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and therefore manage its cash outflows as it relates to the underlying debt instruments. To accomplish these objectives the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy relating to certain of its variable rate debt instruments. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. The Company did not incur any ineffectiveness during 2017, 2016 and 2015.
The Company has designated the interest rate swap agreements with its counterparties as cash flow hedges of the risk of variability attributable to changes in the LIBOR swap rates on $505,000 of LIBOR-indexed variable-rate unsecured term loans. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to earnings as interest becomes receivable or payable.
Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the aggregate $505,000 term loans. During the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $1,023 will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense if the swaps remain outstanding.
As of December 31, 2017, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Interest Rate Derivative | Number of Instruments | Notional
Interest Rate Swaps | 10 | $505,000

The table below presents the fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016.

The Company's agreements with the swap derivative counterparties contain provisions whereby if the Company defaults on the underlying indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default of the swap derivative obligation. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had not posted any collateral related to the agreements.
(12) Leases
Lessor:
Minimum future rental receipts under the non-cancelable portion of tenant leases, assuming no new or re-negotiated leases, for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:

Year ending December 31, |  | Total
2018 |  | $ | 354,240 |
2019 |  | 333,463 |
2020 |  | 304,651 |
2021 |  | 284,114 |
2022 |  | 265,346 |
Thereafter |  | 2,114,450 |
|  | $ | 3,656,264 |

The above minimum lease payments do not include reimbursements to be received from tenants for certain operating expenses and real estate taxes and do not include early termination payments provided for in certain leases.
Certain leases allow for the tenant to terminate the lease if the property is deemed obsolete, as defined, and upon payment of a termination fee to the landlord, as stipulated in the lease. In addition, certain leases provide the tenant with the right to purchase the leased property at fair market value or a stipulated price.
Lessee:
The Company holds, through property owner subsidiaries, leasehold interests in various properties. Generally, the ground rents on these properties are either paid directly by the tenants to the fee holder or reimbursed to the Company as additional rent. Certain properties are economically owned through the holding of industrial revenue bonds and as such neither ground lease payments nor bond debt service payments are made or received, respectively. For certain of these properties, the Company has an option to purchase the fee interest.

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

Year ending December 31, |  | Total
2018 |  | $ | 4,330 |
2019 |  | 3,887 |
2020 |  | 3,886 |
2021 |  | 3,829 |
2022 |  | 3,893 |
Thereafter |  | 28,727 |
|  | $ | 48,552 |

Rent expense for the leasehold interests was $690, $987 and $868 in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
The Company leases its corporate headquarters. The lease expires March 2026. The Company is responsible for its proportionate share of operating expenses and real estate taxes above a base year. In addition, the Company leases office space for its regional offices. The minimum lease payments for the Company's offices are $1,298 for 2018, $1,294 for 2019, $1,297 for 2020, $1,325 for 2021 and $1,336 for 2022 and $4,238 thereafter. Rent expense for 2017, 2016 and 2015 was $1,256, $1,242 and $1,435, respectively.

(13) | Concentration of Risk

The Company seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through the geographic diversification of its properties, tenant industry diversification, avoidance of dependency on a single asset and the creditworthiness of its tenants. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, no single tenant represented greater than 10% of rental revenues.
Cash and cash equivalent balances at certain institutions may exceed insurable amounts. The Company believes it mitigates this risk by investing in or through major financial institutions.

(14) | Equity

Shareholders' Equity:
During 2016 and 2015, the Company issued 577,823 and 2,266,191 common shares, respectively, under its direct share purchase plan, which includes a dividend reinvestment component, raising net proceeds of approximately $4,115 and $20,797 respectively. In 2017, no shares were issued under this plan. During 2013, the Company implemented, and in 2016, the Company updated, its At-The-Market offering program under which the Company may issue up to $125,000 in common shares over the term of this program. During 2017 and 2016, the Company issued 1,593,603 and 976,109 common shares, respectively, under this program and generated aggregate gross proceeds of $17,362 and $10,498, respectively. No shares were sold under this program in 2015. The proceeds from these issuances were primarily used for general working capital, to fund investments and retire indebtedness.
The Company had 1,935,400 shares of Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred”), outstanding at December 31, 2017. The shares have a dividend of $3.25 per share per annum, have a liquidation preference of $96,770, and the Company, if certain common share prices are achieved, can force conversion into common shares of the Company. As of December 31, 2017, each share is currently convertible into 2.4339 common shares. This conversion ratio may increase over time if the Company's common share dividend exceeds certain quarterly thresholds.
If certain fundamental changes occur, holders may require the Company, in certain circumstances, to repurchase all or part of their shares of Series C Preferred. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes, the Company will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional common shares or, in lieu thereof, may in certain circumstances elect to adjust the conversion rate upon the shares of Series C Preferred becoming convertible into shares of the public acquiring or surviving company.

($000, except share/unit data)
The Company may, at the Company's option, cause shares of Series C Preferred to be automatically converted into that number of common shares that are issuable at the then prevailing conversion rate. The Company may exercise its conversion right only if, at certain times, the closing price of the Company's common shares equals or exceeds 125% of the then prevailing conversion price of the Series C Preferred.
Investors in shares of Series C Preferred generally have no voting rights, but will have limited voting rights if the Company fails to pay dividends for six or more quarters and under certain other circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company may choose to deliver the conversion value to investors in cash, common shares, or a combination of cash and common shares.
During 2017, 2016 and 2015, the Company issued 835,234, 1,084,835 and 860,730 of its common shares, respectively, to certain employees and trustees. Typically, trustee share grants vest immediately. Employee share grants generally vest ratably, on anniversaries of the grant date, however, in certain situations vesting is cliff-based after a specific number of years and/or subject to meeting certain performance criteria (see note 15).
In July 2015, the Company's Board of Trustees authorized the repurchase of up to 10,000,000 common shares. This share repurchase program has no expiration date. During 2016, the Company repurchased 1,184,113 common shares at an average gross price of $7.56 per common share under this share repurchase program. No shares were repurchased in 2017.
A summary of the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to the Company's cash flow hedges is as follows:

|  | Twelve months ended December 31,
|  | 2017 |  | 2016
Balance at beginning of period |  | $ | (1,033 | ) |  | (1,939 | )
Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications |  | 1,168 |  |  | (3,084 | )
Amounts of loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense |  | 930 |  |  | 3,990 |
Balance at end of period |  | $ | 1,065 |  |  | (1,033 | )

Noncontrolling Interests:
In conjunction with several of the Company's acquisitions in prior years, sellers were issued OP units as a form of consideration. All OP units, other than OP units owned by the Company, are redeemable for common shares at certain times, at the option of the holders, and are generally not otherwise mandatorily redeemable by the Company. The OP units are classified as a component of permanent equity as the Company has determined that the OP units are not redeemable securities as defined by GAAP. Each OP unit is currently redeemable for approximately 1.13 common shares, subject to future adjustments.
During 2017, 2016 and 2015, 140,746, 48,549 and 32,780 common shares, respectively, were issued by the Company, in connection with OP unit redemptions, for an aggregate value of $584, $210 and $165, respectively.
As of December 31, 2017, there were approximately 3,223,000 OP units outstanding other than OP units owned by the Company. All OP units receive distributions in accordance with the LCIF partnership agreement. To the extent that the Company's dividend per common share is less than the stated distribution per OP unit per the LCIF partnership agreement, the distributions per OP unit are reduced by the percentage reduction in the Company's dividend per common share. No OP units have a liquidation preference.

In July 2015, the Company acquired a consolidated joint venture partner's interest in an office property in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for $4,022 raising the Company's equity ownership in the office property to 100.0%.

(15) | Benefit Plans

The Company maintains an equity award plan pursuant to which qualified and non-qualified options may be issued. No common share options were issued in 2017, 2016 and 2015. The Company granted 1,248,501, 1,265,500 and 2,000,000 common share options on December 31, 2010 (“2010 options”), January 8, 2010 (“2009 options”) and December 31, 2008 (“2008 options”), respectively, at an exercise price of $7.95, $6.39 and $5.60, respectively. The 2010 options (1) vested 20% annually on each December 31, 2011 through 2015 and (2) terminate on the earlier of (x) six months of termination of service with the Company and (y) December 31, 2020. The 2009 options (1) vested 20% annually on each December 31, 2010 through 2014 and (2) terminate on the earlier of (x) six months of termination of service with the Company and (y) December 31, 2019. The 2008 options (1) vested 50% following a 20-day trading period where the average closing price of a common share of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) was $8.00 or higher and vested 50% following a 20-day trading period where the average closing price of a common share of the Company on the NYSE was $10.00 or higher, and (2) terminate on the earlier of (x) termination of service with the Company or (y) December 31, 2018. As a result of the share dividends paid in 2009, each of the 2008 options is exchangeable for approximately 1.13 common shares at an exercise price of $4.97 per common share.
The Company engaged third parties to value the options as of each option's respective grant date. The third parties determined the value to be $2,422 and $2,771 for the 2010 options and 2009 options, respectively, using the Black-Scholes model and $2,480 for the 2008 options using the Monte Carlo model. The options are considered equity awards as they are settled through the issuance of common shares. As such, the options were valued as of the grant date and do not require subsequent remeasurement. There were several assumptions used to fair value the options including the expected volatility in the Company's common share price based upon the fluctuation in the Company's historical common share price. The more significant assumptions underlying the determination of fair value for options granted were as follows:

|  | 2010 Options |  | 2009 Options |  | 2008 Options
Weighted-average fair value of options granted |  | $ | 1.94 |  |  | $ | 2.19 |  |  | $ | 1.24 |
Weighted-average risk-free interest rate |  | 2.54 | % |  | 3.29 | % |  | 1.33 | %
Weighted-average expected option lives (in years) |  | 6.50 |  |  | 6.70 |  |  | 3.60 |
Weighted-average expected volatility |  | 49.00 | % |  | 59.08 | % |  | 59.94 | %
Weighted-average expected dividend yield |  | 7.40 | % |  | 6.26 | % |  | 14.40 | %

The Company recognized compensation expense relating to these options over an average of 5.0 years for the 2010 options and 2009 options and 3.6 years for the 2008 options. All deferred compensation costs relating to the outstanding options were fully amortized by December 31, 2015. The intrinsic value of an option is the amount by which the market value of the underlying common share at the date the option is exercised exceeds the exercise price of the option. No options were exercised in 2015 and the total intrinsic value of options exercised for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 were $1,064 and $2,856, respectively.

(1) | The shares vest based on the Company's total shareholder return growth after a three-year measurement period relative to an index and a group of Company peers. Dividends will not be paid on these grants until earned. Once the performance criteria are met and the actual number of shares earned is determined, such shares vest immediately. The 2Q shares were subject to shareholder approval, which was obtained in May 2017.

(2) | The fair value of grants was determined at the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model.

(3) | The shares vest ratably over a three-year service period.

In addition, during 2017, 2016 and 2015, the Company issued 57,334, 50,816, and 48,051, respectively, of fully vested common shares to non-management members of the Company's Board of Trustees with a fair value of $596, $427, and $468, respectively.

The Company has established a trust for certain officers in which vested common shares granted for the benefit of the officers are deposited. The officers exert no control over the common shares in the trust and the common shares are available to the general creditors of the Company. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, there were 427,531 common shares in the trust.
The Company sponsors a 401(k) retirement savings plan covering all eligible employees. The Company makes a discretionary matching contribution on a portion of employee participant salaries and, based on its profitability, may make an additional discretionary contribution at each fiscal year end to all eligible employees. These discretionary contributions are subject to vesting under a schedule providing for 25% annual vesting starting with the first year of employment and 100% vesting after four years of employment. Approximately $439, $357 and $333 of contributions are applicable to 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
During 2017, 2016 and 2015, the Company recognized $8,333, $8,415 and $8,201, respectively, in expense relating to scheduled vesting and issuance of common share grants.

(16) | Related Party Transactions

The Company has an indemnity obligation to Vornado Realty Trust ("VNO"), one of its significant shareholders, with respect to actions by the Company that affect Vornado Realty Trust's status as a REIT.
All related party acquisitions, sales and loans are approved by the independent members of the Company's Board of Trustees or the Audit Committee.
The Company leased a property to an entity in which VNO, a significant shareholder, has an interest. During 2017, 2016 and 2015, the Company recognized $234, $236 and $255, respectively, in rental revenue from this property. This property was sold in 2017. The Company leases its corporate office from an affiliate of Vornado Realty Trust. Rent expense for this property was $1,179, $1,176 and $1,323 in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
In connection with efforts, on a non-binding basis, to procure non-recourse mezzanine financing from an affiliate of the Company's Chairman, pursuant to the terms of the EB-5 visa program administered by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”), for a joint venture investment in Houston, Texas, in which the Company has an investment, the Company executed a guaranty in favor of an affiliate of its Chairman. The guaranty provides that the Company will reimburse investors providing the funds for such financing if the following occurs: (1) the joint venture receives such funds, (2) the USCIS denies the financing solely because the project is not permitted under the EB-5 visa program, and (3) the joint venture fails to return such funds. During 2017, USCIS approved the project, and the guaranty terminated by its terms.
In addition, the Company obtained non-recourse mezzanine financing in the initial amount of $8,000 from an affiliate of the Company's Chairman, pursuant to the terms of the EB-5 visa program administered by the USCIS, for an investment in Charlotte, North Carolina owned by LCIF. The Company reimbursed the Chairman's affiliate approximately $105 for its expenses and paid a $120 structuring fee to the Chairman's affiliate. The loan may be increased to $12,000 upon certain events.

(17) | Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes relates primarily to the taxable income of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries. The earnings, other than in taxable REIT subsidiaries, of the Company are not generally subject to federal income taxes at the Company level due to the REIT election made by the Company.
Income taxes have been provided for on the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities.
The Company's provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 is summarized as follows:

| 2017 |  | 2016 |  | 2015
Current: |  |  |  |  |
Federal | $ | (107 | ) |  | $ | (140 | ) |  | $ | — |
State and local | (1,810 | ) |  | (1,299 | ) |  | (645 | )
NOL utilized | — |  |  | 59 |  |  | — |
Deferred: |  |  |  |  |
Federal | — |  |  | (44 | ) |  | 59 |
State and local | — |  |  | (15 | ) |  | 18 |
| $ | (1,917 | ) |  | $ | (1,439 | ) |  | $ | (568 | )

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

| 2017 |  | 2016 |  | 2015
Federal provision at statutory tax rate (34%) | $ | (182 | ) |  | $ | (154 | ) |  | $ | 65 |
State and local taxes, net of federal benefit | (40 | ) |  | (30 | ) |  | 12 |
Other | (1,695 | ) |  | (1,255 | ) |  | (645 | )
| $ | (1,917 | ) |  | $ | (1,439 | ) |  | $ | (568 | )

For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, the “other” amount is comprised primarily of state franchise taxes of $1,598, $1,252 and $679, respectively.
A summary of the average taxable nature of the Company's common dividends for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017, is as follows:

| 2017 |  | 2016 |  | 2015
Total dividends per share | $ | 0.700 |  |  | $ | 0.685 |  |  | $ | 0.68 |

(18) | Commitments and Contingencies

In addition to the commitments and contingencies disclosed elsewhere, the Company has the following commitments and contingencies.
The Company is obligated under certain tenant leases, including its proportionate share for leases for non-consolidated entities, to fund the expansion of the underlying leased properties. The Company, under certain circumstances, may guarantee to tenants the completion of base building improvements and the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of its subsidiaries.
The Company and LCIF are parties to a funding agreement under which the Company may be required to fund distributions made on account of LCIF's OP units. Pursuant to the funding agreement, the parties agreed that, if LCIF does not have sufficient cash available to make a quarterly distribution to its limited partners in an amount in accordance with the partnership agreement, Lexington will fund the shortfall. Payments under the agreement will be made in the form of loans to LCIF and will bear interest at prevailing rates as determined by the Company in its discretion but, no less than the applicable federal rate. LCIF's right to receive these loans will expire if no OP units remain outstanding and all such loans are repaid. No amounts have been advanced under this agreement.
From time to time, the Company is directly or indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
GSMSC II 2006-GG6 Bridgewater Hills Corporate Center, LLC v. Lexington Realty Trust (Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York-Index No. 653117/2015)
On September 16, 2015, GSMSC II 2006-GG6 Bridgewater Hills Corporate Center, LLC commenced an action as lender against the Company based on a limited guaranty of recourse obligations executed by a predecessor entity of the Company in connection with a mortgage loan secured by a property owner subsidiary's commercial property in Bridgewater, New Jersey. The property owner subsidiary defaulted due to non-payment after the sole tenant vacated at the end of the lease term. The lender claimed approximately $9,200 in order to satisfy the outstanding amount of the loan, plus interest, reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs and disbursements related thereto.
The lender claimed that the Company's limited guaranty was triggered due to the merger of Newkirk Realty Trust, Inc. and Lexington Corporate Properties Trust on December 31, 2006, arguing that it constituted an event of default because it was a transfer that was not permitted by the loan agreement. The limited guaranty provided that the guarantor's liability for the guaranteed obligations shall not exceed $10,000. The Company filed a motion to dismiss, which was generally denied. The parties conducted discovery consisting of document production. A mediation was held on October 5, 2017. As a result of discussions, following the mediation, a settlement agreement was executed and the Company made a $2,050 payment in full settlement of the lender's claims. The action was subsequently dismissed.
The lender also brought a foreclosure action against the property owner subsidiary. A foreclosure sale was held September 13, 2016 and the lender acquired the property for a nominal amount.

To the Partners of
Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. and subsidiaries (the "Partnership") as of December 31, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in partners’ capital, and cash flows, for the year ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes and the schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 for the year ended December 31, 2017 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December 31, 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Partnership's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Partnership in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.

Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

LEPERCQ CORPORATE INCOME FUND L.P. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
($000, except share/unit data)
(1) The Partnership
Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except when the context only applies to the parent entity, the “Partnership”) was organized in 1986 as a limited partnership under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. The Partnership's sole general partner, Lex GP-1 Trust (the “General Partner”), is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lexington Realty Trust (“Lexington”). The Partnership is an operating partnership subsidiary of Lexington. As of December 31, 2017, Lexington, through Lex LP-1 Trust, a wholly-owned subsidiary, and the General Partner owned approximately 96.0% of the outstanding units of the Partnership. As of December 31, 2017, the Partnership had equity ownership interests in 32 consolidated real estate properties located in 20 states. The properties in which the Partnership has an interest are primarily net-leased to tenants in various industries.
A majority of the real properties in which the Partnership had an interest are generally subject to net leases or similar leases where the tenant pays all or substantially all of the cost, including cost increases, for real estate taxes, insurance, utilities and ordinary maintenance of the property. However, certain leases provide that the landlord is responsible for certain operating expenses. Property owner subsidiaries are landlords under leases for properties in which the Partnership has an interest and/or borrows under loan agreements secured by properties in which the Partnership has an interest and lender subsidiaries are lenders under loan agreements where the Partnership made an investment in a loan asset, but in all cases are separate and distinct legal entities. The assets and credit of a property owner subsidiary or lender subsidiary are not available to satisfy the debt and other obligations of any other person, including any other property owner subsidiary or lender subsidiary or any other affiliate.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Partnership's consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Partnership consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Partnership is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). Entities which the Partnership does not control and entities which are VIEs in which the Partnership is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for under appropriate GAAP.
Earnings Per Unit. Net income (loss) per unit is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of units outstanding during the period. There are no potential dilutive securities.
Unit Redemptions. The Partnership's limited partner units that are issued and outstanding, other than those held by Lexington, are currently redeemable at certain times, only at the option of the holders, for Lexington shares of beneficial interests, par value $0.0001 per share classified as common stock (“common shares”), on a one to approximately 1.13 basis, subject to future adjustments. These units are not otherwise mandatorily redeemable by the Partnership. As of December 31, 2017, Lexington's common shares had a closing price of $9.65 per share. The estimated fair value of these units was $35,021, assuming all outstanding limited partner units not held by Lexington were redeemed on such date.
Allocation of Overhead Expenses. The Partnership does not pay a fee to the General Partner for the day-to-day management of the Partnership. Certain expenses incurred by the General Partner and its affiliates, including Lexington, such as corporate-level interest, amortization of deferred loan costs, payroll and general and administrative expenses are allocated to the Partnership and reimbursed to the General Partner in accordance with the Partnership's partnership agreement. The allocation is based upon gross rental revenues.
Distributions; Allocations of Income and Loss. As provided in the Partnership's partnership agreement, distributions and income and loss for financial reporting purposes are allocated to the partners based on their ownership of units. Special allocation rules included in the partnership agreement affect the allocation of taxable income and loss. The Partnership paid or accrued gross distributions of $63,525 ($0.77 per weighted average unit), $66,815 ($0.80 per weighted-average unit) and $60,846 ($0.84 per weighted-average unit) to its partners during the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Use of Estimates. The Partnership has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. The Partnership evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the economic environment. The Partnership adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets, loans receivable and equity method investments and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Fair Value Measurements. The Partnership follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("Topic 820"), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Partnership utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counter-party credit risk.
Revenue Recognition. The Partnership recognizes lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the leased property. Revenue is recognized on a contractual basis for leases with escalations tied to a consumer price index with no floor. Renewal options in leases with rental terms that are lower than those in the primary term are excluded from the calculation of straight-line rent if the renewals are not reasonably assured. If the Partnership funds tenant improvements and the improvements are deemed to be owned by the Partnership, revenue recognition will commence when the improvements are substantially completed and possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. If the Partnership determines that the tenant allowances are lease incentives, the Partnership commences revenue recognition when possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant for tenant work to begin. The lease incentive is recorded as a deferred expense and amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. The Partnership recognizes lease termination fees as rental revenue in the period received and writes off unamortized lease-related intangible and other lease-related account balances, provided there are no further Partnership obligations under the lease. Otherwise, such fees and balances are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining obligation period with the termination payments being recorded as a component of rent receivable-deferred on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Gains on sales of real estate are recognized based upon the specific timing of the sale as measured against various criteria related to the terms of the transactions and any continuing involvement associated with the properties. If the sales criteria are not met, the gain is deferred and the finance, installment or cost recovery method, as appropriate, is applied until the sales criteria are met. To the extent the Partnership sells a property and retains a partial ownership interest in the property, the Partnership recognizes gain to the extent of the third-party ownership interest.
Purchase Accounting and Acquisition of Real Estate. The fair value of the real estate acquired, which includes the impact of fair value adjustments for assumed mortgage debt related to property acquisitions, is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values. Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred and are included in property operating expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land, building and improvements and fixtures and equipment) is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant. The “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building and improvements based on management's determination of relative fair values of these assets. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. The Partnership also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions. The Partnership's management generally retains a third party to assist in the allocations.
In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market lease values are recorded based on the difference between the current in-place lease rent and the Partnership's estimate of current market rents. Below-market lease intangibles are recorded as part of deferred revenue and amortized into rental revenue over the non-cancelable periods and bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. Above-market leases are recorded as part of intangible assets and amortized as a direct charge against rental revenue over the non-cancelable portion of the respective leases.
The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases and tenant relationship values, is measured by the excess of (1) the purchase price paid for a property over (2) the estimated fair value of the property as if vacant, determined as set forth above. This aggregate value is allocated between in-place lease values and tenant relationship values based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease. The value of in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods and any bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationships are amortized to expense over the applicable lease term plus expected renewal periods.
Depreciation is determined by the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic useful lives of the properties. The Partnership generally depreciates its real estate assets over periods ranging up to 40 years.
Impairment of Real Estate. The Partnership evaluates the carrying value of all tangible and intangible real estate assets held for investment for possible impairment when an event or change in circumstance has occurred that indicates its carrying value may not be recoverable. The evaluation includes estimating and reviewing anticipated future undiscounted cash flows to be derived from the asset. If such cash flows are less than the asset's carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent by which the asset's carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, which may be below the balance of any non-recourse financing. Estimating future cash flows and fair values is highly subjective and such estimates could differ materially from actual results.
Investments in Non-Consolidated Entities. The Partnership accounts for its investments in 50% or less owned entities under the equity method, unless consolidation is required. If the Partnership's investment in the entity is insignificant and the Partnership has no influence over the control of the entity then the entity is accounted for under the cost method.
Impairment of Equity Method Investments. The Partnership assesses whether there are indicators that the value of its equity method investments may be impaired. An impairment charge is recognized only if the Partnership determines that a decline in the value of the investment below its carrying value is other-than-temporary. The assessment of impairment is highly subjective and involves the application of significant assumptions and judgments about the Partnership's intent and ability to recover its investment given the nature and operations of the underlying investment, among other factors. To the extent an impairment is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment.
Properties Held For Sale. Assets and liabilities of properties that meet various held for sale criteria, including whether it is probable that a sale will occur within 12 months, are presented separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Commencing January 1, 2015, the operating results of these properties are reflected as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations only if the sale of these assets represents a strategic shift in operations, if not, the operating results are included in continuing operations. Properties classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of net carrying value or estimated fair value less costs to sell and depreciation and amortization are no longer recognized. Properties that do not meet the held for sale criteria are accounted for as operating properties.

Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. The Partnership evaluates loans receivable where the Partnership participates in residual profits through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether the Partnership has the same risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture partner. Where the Partnership concludes that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, the Partnership reflects such loan receivable as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan receivable and the Partnership records capitalized interest during the construction period. In arrangements where the Partnership engages a developer to construct a property or provide funds to a tenant to develop a property, the Partnership will capitalize the funds provided to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period.
Deferred Expenses. Deferred expenses consist primarily of leasing costs, which are amortized over the term of the related lease.
Income Taxes. Because the Partnership is a limited partnership, taxable income or loss of the Partnership is reported in the income tax returns of its partners. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is made in the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Partnership. However, the Partnership is required to pay certain state and local entity level taxes which are expensed as incurred. The Partnership does not have any unrecognized tax benefits or any additional tax liabilities as of December 31, 2017 and 2016.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Partnership considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash. Restricted cash is comprised primarily of cash balances held in escrow by lenders.
Co-borrower Debt. The Partnership is subject to ASC 405-40, which requires recognition of obligations as to which it is a co-borrower as the sum of (a) the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and (b) any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors.
Environmental Matters. Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, an owner of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under such property as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. These liabilities may include government fines, penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence or disposal of such substances. Although most of the tenants of properties in which the Partnership has an interest are primarily responsible for any environmental damage and claims related to the leased premises, in the event of the bankruptcy or inability of the tenant of such premises to satisfy any obligations with respect to such environmental liability, or if the tenant is not responsible, the Partnership's property owner subsidiary may be required to satisfy any such obligations, should they exist. In addition, the property owner subsidiary, as the owner of such a property, may be held directly liable for any such damages or claims irrespective of the provisions of any lease. As of December 31, 2017, the Partnership was not aware of any environmental matter relating to any of its investments that would have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Segment Reporting. The Partnership operates generally in one industry segment, single-tenant real estate assets.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends the guidance for revenue recognition to eliminate the industry-specific revenue recognition guidance and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. The effective date of the new guidance was updated by ASU 2015-14 and is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Partnership’s revenue-producing contracts are primarily leases that are not within the scope of this standard as leases are excluded from ASU 2014-09. The Partnership expects that it may be impacted in its recognition of non-lease revenue, non-lease components of revenue from lease agreements (upon adoption of ASU 2016-02) and the timing of its recognition of real estate sale transactions. Under ASU 2014-09, revenue recognition for real estate sales is largely based on the transfer of control and the buyer having the ability to direct the use of, or obtain substantially all of the remaining benefit from, the asset (which generally will occur on the closing date); the factor of continuing involvement is no longer a specific consideration for the timing of recognition. As a result, the Partnership generally expects that the new guidance may result in transactions qualifying as sales of real estate at an earlier date than under current accounting guidance. The Partnership believes the impact would be limited to the timing and income statement presentation of revenue and not the total amount of revenue recognized over time. The Partnership adopted ASU 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. As the majority of the Partnership’s revenue is from rental income related to leases, the Partnership does not believe the ASU will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for those leases classified as operating leases at the commencement date that have lease terms of more than 12 months and amends certain lessor guidance. The ASU is expected to result in the recognition of a right-to-use asset and related liability to account for the Partnership's future obligations under its ground lease arrangements for which the Partnership is the lessee. From a lessor perspective, the Partnership expects that lease components will primarily be recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ASU 2016-02 originally stated that companies would be required to bifurcate certain lease revenues between lease and non-lease components, however, the FASB issued an exposure draft in January 2018 (2018 Exposure Draft) which, if adopted as written, would allow lessors a practical expedient by class of underlying assets to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component if certain criteria are met. Additionally, ASU 2016-02 will require that the Partnership capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. ASU 2016-02 originally required a modified retrospective method of adoption, however, the 2018 Exposure Draft indicates that companies may be permitted to recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The pronouncement allows some optional practical expedients. The Partnership expects to adopt this new guidance on January 1, 2019 and will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance until it becomes effective.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years; however, early adoption is permitted. Entities must apply the guidance retrospectively to all periods presented but may apply it prospectively if retrospective application would be impracticable. The Partnership adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2018. The Partnership does not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which clarifies guidance on the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. Upon adoption, restricted cash balances will be included along with cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the period and beginning of period, respectively, in the Partnership's consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods presented. Upon adoption, separate line items showing changes in restricted cash balances will be eliminated from the Partnership's consolidated statement of cash flows. The Partnership adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2018.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Partnership expects that acquisitions of real estate or in-substance real estate will not meet the revised definition of a business and thus will be treated as asset acquisitions. Acquisition costs for those acquisitions that are not businesses will be capitalized rather than expensed. The Partnership adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2018. The Partnership does not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Topic 610-20), which requires that all entities account for the derecognition of a business in accordance with ASC 810, including instances in which the business is considered in-substance real estate. The ASU requires the Partnership to measure at fair value any retained interest in a partial sale of real estate. The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Partnership adopted ASU 2017-05 effective January 1, 2018 and it is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Life of intangible asset (years) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 14.9 |

The Partnership recognized aggregate acquisition and pursuit expenses of $343 and $359 in 2017 and 2016, respectively.
(4) Property Dispositions and Real Estate Impairment
For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Partnership disposed of its interests in certain properties generating aggregate net proceeds of $17,847 and $238,891, respectively, which resulted in gains on sales of $4,491 and $36,380, respectively. During 2017, 2016 and 2015, the Partnership recognized aggregate impairment charges of $5,259, $72,072 and $787, respectively, relating to properties that were ultimately disposed. The aggregate 2016 impairment charges related primarily to the sale of three land investments in New York, New York for $65,500. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Partnership recognized debt satisfaction charges, net, relating to sold properties of $7,388. No properties were disposed of during the year ended December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Partnership had no properties classified as held for sale.
The Partnership assesses on a regular basis whether there are any indicators that the carrying value of real estate assets may be impaired. Potential indicators may include an increase in vacancy at a property, tenant reduction in utilization of a property, tenant financial instability and the potential sale of the property in the near future. An asset is determined to be impaired if the asset's carrying value is in excess of its estimated fair value. During 2017, the Partnership recognized an impairment charge of $6,802 on a partially vacant office property located in Florence, South Carolina.
(5) Investments in and Advances to Non-Consolidated Entities
In July 2014, the Partnership acquired a 1.0% interest in an office property in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for $263. The Partnership accounts for this investment under the cost basis of accounting.
On September 1, 2012, the Partnership acquired a 2% equity interest in Net Lease Strategic Assets Fund L.P. (“NLS”) for cash of $189 and the issuance of 457,211 limited partner units to Lexington.
The Partnership's carrying value in NLS at December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $6,175 and $5,224, respectively. The Partnership recognized net income from NLS of $458, $302 and $141 in equity in earnings from non-consolidated entities during 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Partnership contributed $1,737 and $81 to NLS in 2017 and 2016. In addition, the Partnership received distributions of $1,244, $781 and $636 from NLS in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

(6) Fair Value Measurements
The following tables present the Partnership's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the year ended December 31, 2017, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall:

|  |  | Fair Value Measurements Using
Description | 2017 |  | (Level 1) |  | (Level 2) |  | (Level 3)
Impaired real estate asset* | $ | 2,090 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 2,090 |

*Represents a non-recurring fair value measurement determined during the year.
The table below sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Partnership's financial instruments as of December 31, 2017 and 2016:

|  | As of December 31, 2017 |  | As of December 31, 2016
|  | Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value |  | Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value
Liabilities |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Debt |  | $ | 370,581 |  |  | $ | 352,806 |  |  | $ | 315,616 |  |  | $ | 314,509 |

The fair value of the Partnership's debt is primarily estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs by using an estimated discounted cash flow analysis, based upon estimates of market interest rates.
The Partnership estimates the fair value of its real estate assets, including non-consolidated real estate assets, by using income and market valuation techniques. The Partnership may estimate fair values using market information such as broker opinions of value, recent sale offers or discounted cash flow models, which primarily rely on Level 3 inputs. The cash flow models include estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. These cash flows may include contractual rental revenues, projected future rental revenues and expenses and forecasted tenant improvements and lease commissions based upon market conditions determined through discussion with local real estate professionals, experience the Partnership has with its other owned properties in such markets and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are estimated by management based upon rates that management believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties based upon an analysis of factors such as property and tenant quality, geographical location and local supply and demand observations. To the extent the Partnership under-estimates forecasted cash outflows (tenant improvements, lease commissions and operating costs) or over-estimates forecasted cash inflows (rental revenue rates), the estimated fair value of its real estate assets could be overstated.
Fair values cannot be determined with precision, may not be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets and may not be realized upon sale. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates, liquidity risks and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts.
Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. The Partnership estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of the instruments.

(7) Mortgages and Notes Payable and Co-Borrower Debt
The Partnership had the following mortgages and notes payable outstanding as of December 31, 2017 and 2016:

| December 31, 2017 |  | December 31, 2016
Mortgages and notes payable | $ | 214,303 |  |  | $ | 169,958 |
Unamortized debt issuance costs | (1,511 | ) |  | (746 | )
| $ | 212,792 |  |  | $ | 169,212 |

Interest rates, including imputed rates, ranged from 4.0% to 6.5% at December 31, 2017 and the mortgages and notes payable mature between 2019 and 2033. Interest rates, including imputed rates, ranged from 4.0% to 6.5% at December 31, 2016. The weighted-average interest rate at December 31, 2017 and 2016 was approximately 4.8% and 4.7%, respectively.
Lexington's, and the Partnership's as co-borrower, unsecured credit agreement with KeyBank National Association, as agent, was amended in 2017 to, among other things, increase the overall facility to $1,105,000. With lender approval, Lexington can increase the size of the amended facility to an aggregate $2,010,000. A summary of the significant terms are as follows:

| Maturity Date |  | Current Interest Rate
$505,000 Revolving Credit Facility(1) | August 2019 |  | LIBOR + 1.00%
$300,000 Term Loan(2) | August 2020 |  | LIBOR + 1.10%
$300,000 Term Loan(3) | January 2021 |  | LIBOR + 1.10%

(1) | Increased from $400,000. Maturity date can be extended to August 2020 at the Lexington's option. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.85% to 1.55%. At December 31, 2017, the revolving credit facility had $160,000 of borrowings outstanding and availability of $345,000 subject to covenant compliance.

(2) | Increased from $250,000. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.90% to 1.75%. Interest-rate swap agreements exist to fix the LIBOR component at a weighted-average rate of 1.09% through February 2018 on $250,000 of the $300,000 outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings.

(3) | Increased from $255,000. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.90% to 1.75%. Interest-rate swap agreements exist to fix the LIBOR component at a weighted-average rate of 1.42% through January 2019 on $255,000 of the $300,000 outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings.

The unsecured revolving credit facility and the unsecured term loans are subject to financial covenants, which Lexington was in compliance with at December 31, 2017.
In accordance with the guidance of ASU 2013-04, the Partnership recognizes a proportion of the outstanding amounts of the above mentioned term loans and revolving credit facility as it is a co-borrower with Lexington, as co-borrower debt in the accompanying balances sheets. In accordance with the Partnership’s partnership agreement, the Partnership is allocated a portion of these debts based on gross rental revenues, which represents its agreed to obligation. The Partnership's allocated co-borrower debt was $157,789 and $146,404 as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Changes in co-borrower debt are recognized in partners’ capital, exclusive of direct borrowings/payments, in the accompanying consolidated statements of changes in partners’ capital.
Mortgages payable and secured loans are generally collateralized by real estate and the related leases. Certain mortgages payable have yield maintenance or defeasance requirements relating to any prepayments. In addition, certain mortgages are cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted.

The above minimum lease payments do not include reimbursements to be received from tenants for certain operating expenses and real estate taxes and do not include early termination payments provided for in certain leases.
Certain leases allow for the tenant to terminate the lease if the property is deemed obsolete, as defined, and upon payment of a termination fee to the landlord, as stipulated in the lease. In addition, certain leases provide the tenant with the right to purchase the leased property at fair market value or a stipulated price.
Lessee:
The Partnership held, and may in the future hold, through property owner subsidiaries, leasehold interests in various properties. Generally, the ground rents on these properties are either paid directly by the tenants to the fee holder or reimbursed to the Partnership as additional rent. As of December 31, 2017, the Partnership had no leasehold interests.
Rent expense for the leasehold interests was $171, $286 and $307 in 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively.

(9) Concentration of Risk
The Partnership seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through the geographic diversification of its properties, tenant industry diversification, avoidance of dependency on a single asset and the creditworthiness of its tenants. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015, the following tenants represented greater than 10% of rental revenues:

|  | 2017 |  | 2016 |  | 2015
SM Ascott LLC(1) |  | — | % |  | 11.2 | % |  | 14.7 | %
Tribeca Ascott LLC(1) |  | — | % |  | — | % |  | 12.6 | %
AL-Stone Ground Tenant LLC(1) |  | — | % |  | — | % |  | 11.5 | %
Preferred Freezer Services of Richland, LLC |  | 17.6 | % |  | 11.4 | % |  | — | %

(1) | The Partnership net leased individual land parcels to the tenants listed above under non-cancellable 99-year (original term) leases. The improvements on these parcels are owned by the tenants and consist of three high-rise hotels located in New York, NY. The Partnership sold these assets in September 2016.

Cash and cash equivalent balances at certain institutions may exceed insurable amounts. The Partnership believes it mitigates this risk by investing in or through major financial institutions.
(10) Related Party Transactions
The Partnership had the following related party transactions in addition to related party transactions discussed elsewhere in this report.
The Partnership had outstanding net advances owed from/(to) Lexington of $(2,422) and $5,967 as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The advances are receivable/payable on demand. Lexington distributions were $61,072, $64,319 and $58,361 during 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. In 2017, the Partnership redeemed 2,675,785 OP units owned by Lexington that were entitled to aggregate annual distributions of $3.25 per unit for $129,990. During 2015, the Partnership issued 12,559,130 units to Lexington to satisfy $112,286 of outstanding distributions and advances.
The Partnership was allocated interest and amortization expense by Lexington, in accordance with the Partnership agreement, relating to certain of its lending facilities of $8,237, $11,392 and $12,253 for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Lexington, on behalf of the General Partner, pays for certain general administrative and other costs on behalf of the Partnership from time to time. These costs are reimbursable by the Partnership. These costs were approximately $6,557, $9,767 and $8,618 for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
A Lexington affiliate provides property management services for certain Partnership properties. The Partnership recognized property operating expenses of $672, $764 and $905 for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, for aggregate fees and reimbursements charged by the affiliate.
The Partnership leased a property to an entity in which Vornado Realty Trust, a significant Lexington shareholder, has an interest. During 2017, 2016 and 2015, the Partnership recognized $234, $236 and $255, respectively, in rental revenue from this property.
In addition, the Partnership obtained non-recourse mezzanine financing in the initial amount of $8,000 from an affiliate of Lexington's Chairman, who is also the holder of the most OP units other than Lexington, pursuant to the terms of the EB-5 visa program administered by the USCIS, for an investment in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Partnership reimbursed the Chairman's affiliate approximately $105 for its expenses and paid the Chairman's affiliate a $120 structuring fee. The loan may be increased to $12,000 upon certain events.

(11) Commitments and Contingencies
In addition to the commitments and contingencies disclosed elsewhere, the Partnership has the following commitments and contingencies.
The Partnership is obligated under certain tenant leases, including its proportionate share for leases for non-consolidated entities, to fund the expansion of the underlying leased properties. The Partnership, under certain circumstances, may guarantee to tenants the completion of base building improvements and the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of its subsidiaries.
The Partnership and Lexington are parties to a funding agreement under which Lexington may be required to fund distributions made on account of OP units. Pursuant to the funding agreement, the parties agreed that, if the Partnership does not have sufficient cash available to make a quarterly distribution to its limited partners in an amount in accordance with the partnership agreement, Lexington will fund the shortfall. Payments under the agreement will be made in the form of loans to the Partnership and will bear interest at prevailing rates as determined by Lexington in its discretion, but no less than the applicable federal rate. The Partnership's right to receive these loans will expire if no OP units remain outstanding and all such loans repaid. No amounts have been advanced under this agreement.
From time to time, the Partnership is directly or indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of the Partnership's business. The Partnership believes, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's business, financial condition and results of operations.
In May 2014, the Partnership guaranteed $250,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.40% Senior Notes due 2024 (“2024 Senior Notes”) issued by Lexington at an issuance price of 99.883% of the principal amount and in June 2013, the Partnership guaranteed $250,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Senior Notes due 2023 (“2023 Senior Notes”) issued by Lexington at an issuance price of 99.026% of the principal amount, collectively the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes are unsecured, pay interest semi-annually in arrears and mature in June 2024 and 2023, respectively. Lexington may redeem the notes at its option at any time prior to maturity in whole or in part by paying the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus a premium.
(12) Supplemental Disclosure of Statement of Cash Flow Information
In addition to disclosures discussed elsewhere, during 2017, 2016 and 2015, the Partnership paid $15,846, $27,262 and $28,191, respectively, for interest and $119, $34 and $60, respectively, for income taxes.
During 2016, the Partnership sold its interests in certain properties, which included the assumption by the buyers of the related non-recourse mortgage debt in the aggregate amount of $242,269.

Lexington Realty Trust:
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, was made under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer who are our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, respectively. Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2017.
Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017. Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our system of internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and the members of our Board of Trustees; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance that financial statements are fairly presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017. In assessing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, management used as guidance the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based upon the assessment performed, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2017.
Our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, which audited the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K that contain the disclosure required by this Item, independently assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Deloitte & Touche LLP has issued an unqualified report on the Company's internal control over financial reporting, which is included in “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2017, we operated and tested the previously reported remediation plan resulting from the material weakness reported as of December 31, 2016. Other than the operation and testing of such remediation plan, there were no other changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
