In August 2011, we acquired 47 acres of land adjacent to these four MOBs for future development for an additional $4,000, excluding closing costs.

In January 2013, we acquired a senior living community located in Washington State with 150 living units for approximately $22,350, excluding closing costs. We leased this property to Stellar for an initial term expiring in 2028 at initial rent of approximately $1,732 per year. Percentage rent, based on increases in gross revenues at this property, will commence in 2016. We funded this acquisition using cash on hand and by assuming approximately $12,266 of mortgage debt.

In February 2013, we acquired two MOBs with a total of 144,900 square feet located in Washington State for approximately $38,000, excluding closing costs. We funded this acquisition using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

In January 2013, we entered into an agreement to acquire an MOB for approximately $14,600, excluding closing costs. The MOB is located in Mississippi and includes 71,824 square feet. The closing of this acquisition is contingent upon completion of our diligence and other customary closing conditions; accordingly, we can provide no assurance that we will purchase this property.

In May 2012, we entered into an operations transfer agreement, or the Operations Transfer Agreement, with Sunrise and Five Star related to the 10 Communities that we were then leasing to Sunrise, pursuant to which we and Sunrise accelerated the December 31, 2013 termination date of these Sunrise leases, and we began leasing the 10 Communities to our TRS. Five Star is managing the 10 Communities pursuant to long term management agreements. As a result of these lease terminations, we recorded a gain on lease terminations of approximately $375 during the year ended December 31, 2012. Pursuant to the Operations Transfer Agreement, we paid Sunrise $1,000 to purchase the inventory and certain improvements owned by Sunrise at these 10 Communities, which were transferred to our TRS.

In July 2012, we sold one MOB located in Massachusetts with approximately 18,900 square feet for a sale price of approximately $1,100 and recorded a loss on the sale of this property of approximately $101. In May and June 2011, we sold seven properties, including four skilled nursing facilities, one assisted living community and two MOBs, for combined sales prices totaling $39,460, excluding closing costs, and recognized a gain on sale of these properties of approximately $21,315. At December 31, 2012, one of our senior living communities located in Pennsylvania is classified as held for sale. This property is included in real estate properties in our consolidated balance sheets and has a net book value of approximately $850 at both December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

We amortize capitalized above market lease values (included in acquired real estate leases and other intangible assets in our consolidated balance sheets) as a reduction in rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. We amortize capitalized below market lease values (presented as acquired real estate lease obligations in our consolidated balance sheets) as an increase in rental income over the non-cancelable periods of the respective leases. Such amortization resulted in a reduction in rental income of $1,597 during the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase in rental income of $93 during the year ended December 31, 2011, and a reduction in rental income of $891 during the year ended December 31, 2010. We amortize the value of in place leases exclusive of the value of above market and below market in place leases to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods of the respective leases. Such amortization included in depreciation and amortization totaled $19,340, $11,318, $4,468 during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. If a lease is terminated prior to its stated expiration, the unamortized amount relating to that lease is written off.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had recorded intangible lease assets of $161,419, including $45,290 of capitalized above market lease values and $116,129 of the value of in place leases, and $130,153, including $39,075 of capitalized above market lease values and $91,078 of the value of in place leases, and intangible lease liabilities of $21,978 and $25,487, respectively. We recorded intangible lease assets of $41,764 and $52,210 and intangible lease liabilities of $971 and $3,770 for properties acquired in 2012 and 2011, respectively. Accumulated amortization of capitalized above market lease values was $13,675 and $9,612 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The weighted average amortization period of capitalized above market lease values is approximately 6.7 years. Accumulated amortization of capitalized below market lease values was $8,286 and $7,709 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The weighted average amortization period of capitalized below market lease values is approximately 7.5 years. Accumulated amortization of the value of in place leases exclusive of the value of above and below market in place leases was $31,907 and $20,306 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The weighted average amortization period of the value of in place leases exclusive of the value of above and below market in place leases is approximately 6.3 years. We expect to recognize net future amortization of these intangible lease assets and liabilities in the amounts of approximately $24,419 in 2013, $19,098 in 2014, $14,532 in 2015, $12,411 in 2016, $10,255 in 2017 and $21,430, thereafter.

We periodically evaluate our properties for impairments. Impairment indicators may include declining tenant occupancy, weak or declining tenant profitability, cash flow or liquidity, our decision to dispose of an asset before the end of its estimated useful life and legislative, market or industry changes that could permanently reduce the value of a property. If indicators of impairment are present, we evaluate the carrying value of the affected property by comparing it to the expected future undiscounted net cash flows to be generated from that property. If the sum of these expected future net cash flows is less than the carrying value, we reduce the net carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value. During 2012, we recorded an impairment of assets charge of $3,071 to reduce the carrying value of one of our properties to its estimated sale price less costs to sell. During 2011, we recorded impairment of assets charges of $1,990 to reduce the carrying value of four of our properties to their estimated sales prices less costs to sell. During 2010, we recorded impairment of assets charges of $5,965 to reduce the carrying value of seven of our properties to their estimated fair value or sales price less costs to sell.

During 2012 and 2011, pursuant to the terms of our existing leases with Five Star, we purchased $30,520 and $33,269, respectively, of improvements made to our properties leased to Five Star, and, as a result, the annual rent payable to us by Five Star increased by approximately $2,456 and $2,665, respectively.

We committed $6,599 for expenditures related to 636,000 square feet of leases executed during 2012. Committed but unspent tenant related obligations based on executed leases as of December 31, 2012, were $6,033.
