DISPOSALS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
DISPOSALS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In the first quarter of 2014, the Company adopted ASU 2014-08, which changed the definition and criteria of property disposals classified as discontinued operations, on a prospective basis. As a result of applying this accounting guidance, the 2014 disposals listed below were not reclassified to discontinued operations as the 2013 and 2012 disposals were.
2014 Dispositions    
The results of operations of the Properties described below, as well as any gain on extinguishment of debt and impairment losses related to those Properties, are included in income from continuing operations for all periods presented, as applicable. Net proceeds from these 2014 dispositions were used to reduce the outstanding balances on the Company's credit facilities, unless otherwise noted.
