EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2015 of Brandywine Realty Trust (the “Parent Company”) and Brandywine Operating Partnership L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). The Parent Company is a Maryland real estate investment trust, or REIT, that owns its assets and conducts its operations through the Operating Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership, and subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company, the Operating Partnership and their consolidated subsidiaries are collectively referred to in this report as the “Company”. In addition, as used in this report, terms such as “we”, “us”, and “our” may refer to the Company, the Parent Company, or the Operating Partnership.
The Parent Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and, as of September 30, 2015, owned a 99.1% interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining 0.9% interest consists of common units of limited partnership interest issued by the Operating Partnership to third parties in exchange for contributions of properties to the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company has full and complete authority over the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day operations and management.
Management operates the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership as one enterprise. The management of the Parent Company consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership.
As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Parent Company does not have significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements. The separate discussions of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in this report should be read in conjunction with each other to understand the results of the Company's operations on a consolidated basis and how management operates the Company.
The Company believes that combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership into a single report will result in the following benefits:

• | facilitate a better understanding by the investors of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;

• | remove duplicative disclosures and provide a more straightforward presentation in light of the fact that a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership; and

• | create time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

There are few differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, which are reflected in the footnote disclosures in this report. The Company believes it is important to understand the differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how these entities operate as an interrelated consolidated company. The Parent Company is a REIT, whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. As a result, the Parent Company does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing equity from time to time and guaranteeing the debt obligations of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all the assets of the Company and directly or indirectly holds the ownership interests in the Company’s Real Estate Ventures. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the Company’s business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from equity issuances by the Parent Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the Company’s business through the Operating Partnership’s operations, by the Operating Partnership’s incurrence of indebtedness (directly and through subsidiaries) and through the issuance of partnership units of the Operating Partnership or equity interests in subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership.
The equity and non-controlling interests in the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership’s equity are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership. The common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ equity in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements while the common units of limited partnership interests held by parties other than the Parent Company are presented as non-controlling interests in the Parent Company’s financial statements. The differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership’s equity relate to the differences in the equity issued at the Parent Company and Operating Partnership levels.
3

To help investors understand the significant differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report presents the following as separate notes or sections for each of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership:

• | Consolidated Financial Statements; and

• | Parent Company’s and Operating Partnership’s Equity.

This report also includes separate Item 4. (Controls and Procedures) disclosures and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for each of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in order to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity have made the requisite certifications and that the Parent Company and Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and 18 U.S.C. § 1350.
In order to highlight the differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, the separate sections in this report for the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership specifically refer to the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership. In the sections that combine disclosures of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to such disclosures as those of the Company. Although the Operating Partnership is generally the entity that directly or indirectly enters into contracts and Real Estate Ventures and holds assets and debt, reference to the Company is appropriate because the business is one enterprise and the Parent Company operates the business through the Operating Partnership.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters) for a fair statement of the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2015, the results of its operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and its cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 have been included. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Parent Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in their combined 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 19, 2015.
The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 contains a discussion of our significant accounting policies under Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies". There have been no significant changes in our significant accounting policies since December 31, 2014. Management discusses our significant accounting policies and management’s judgments and estimates with the Company's Audit Committee.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance pertaining to entities that have reported provisional amounts for items in a business combination for which the accounting is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs and during the measurement period have an adjustment to provisional amounts recognized. The
18

guidance requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. Any adjustments should be calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. Application of the guidance is prospective. The Company has not determined when it will adopt this guidance, nor what impact the adoption may have on its consolidated financial statements.
On July 9, 2015, the FASB elected to defer the effective date of the revenue recognition standard issued in May 2014 by one year. Reporting entities may choose to adopt the standard as of the original effective date or for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Calendar year-end public entities are therefore required to apply the new revenue guidance beginning in their 2018 interim and annual financial statements. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. See Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 for the Company's initial disclosure of this standard.
In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance requiring that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by this update. Debt issuance costs related to revolving lines of credit are not within the scope of this new guidance. Additionally, in August 2015 the FASB issued guidance expanding the April 2015 update. It states that, given the absence of authoritative guidance within the update, the SEC staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset for revolving lines of credit and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line of credit. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. Full retrospective application is required. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations as the update relates only to changes in financial statement presentation.
In February 2015, the FASB issued guidance modifying the analysis a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. The guidance does not change the general order in which the consolidation models are applied. A reporting entity that holds an economic interest in, or is otherwise involved with, another legal entity must first determine if the variable interest entity model applies, and if so, whether it holds a controlling financial interest under that model. If the entity being evaluated for consolidation is not a variable interest entity, then the voting interest model should be applied to determine whether the entity should be consolidated by the reporting entity. Key changes to the guidance include, but are not limited to: (i.) limiting the extent to which related party interests are included to determine the decision maker’s effective financial interest in the entity, (ii.) requiring that the limited partners in the limited partnership (or the members of a limited liability company that is similar to a limited partnership) have either substantive kick-out rights or substantive participating rights over the general partner to demonstrate that the limited partnership is a voting interest entity, (iii.) changing the evaluation of whether the equity holders at risk lack decision making rights when decision making is outsourced and (iv.) changing how the economics test is performed. The guidance does not amend the existing disclosure requirements for variable interest entities or voting interest model entities. The guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. A reporting entity may elect to either apply the amendments using a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption or apply the amendments retrospectively. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Acquisitions
On August 11, 2015, the Company acquired a 2.7 acre parcel of land containing a vacant office building, located at 9 Presidential Boulevard, Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania, for $4.1 million with available corporate funds. The Company intends to demolish the vacant building and develop the property but has not yet determined the timing and cost of construction for the project as of September 30, 2015. The Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition.
On July 7, 2015, the Company acquired a 0.8 acre parcel of land located at 2100 Market Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for $18.8 million. The Company funded $16.8 million of the purchase price with available corporate funds and the remaining $2.0 million of the purchase price was deferred until the earlier of the commencement of development or 24 months from settlement. The Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition and capitalized a nominal amount of acquisition related costs and other costs as part of land inventory on its consolidated balance sheet. In connection with the purchase agreement, if certain land parcels adjacent to 2100 Market Street are acquired from unaffiliated third parties, the Company may be required to pay additional consideration to the seller of 2100 Market Street. The unaffiliated third parties are not party to this transaction and any land parcels acquired will be acquired in arms length transactions. The amount of additional consideration, if any, is contingent on the purchase price of the adjacent land parcels and cannot be determined at this time. The Company has not yet determined the timing and cost of construction for the project as of September 30, 2015.
On June 22, 2015, through a series of transactions with International Business Machines ("IBM"), the Company acquired the remaining 50.0% interest in Broadmoor Austin Associates, consisting of seven office buildings and the 66.0 acre underlying land parcel located in Austin, Texas, for an aggregate purchase price of $211.4 million. The office buildings contain 1,112,236 net rentable square feet of office space and were 100.0% occupied as of June 30, 2015. The Company funded the cost of the acquisition with an aggregate cash payment of $143.8 million, consisting of $81.0 million from available corporate funds and $62.8 million previously held in escrow related to a Section 1031 like-kind exchange. Part of the cash payment was used at closing to repay, at no repayment penalty, the remaining $51.2 million of secured debt. The Company incurred $0.2 million of acquisition related costs that are classified within general and administrative expenses.
The Company previously accounted for its 50.0% non-controlling interest in Broadmoor Austin Associates under the equity method of accounting. As a result of acquiring IBM's remaining 50.0% common interest in Broadmoor Austin Associates, the Company obtained control of Broadmoor Austin Associates and the Company's existing investment balance was remeasured based on fair value of the underlying properties acquired and the existing distribution provisions under the relevant partnership agreement. As a result, the Company recorded a $0.8 million gain on remeasurement.
The Company has treated its acquisition of the 50.0% ownership interest in Broadmoor Austin Associates as a business combination and allocated the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities. The Company utilized a number of sources in making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating the purchase price to tangible and intangibles assets acquired and intangible liabilities assumed. The purchase price has been allocated as follows (in thousands):
20

| June 22, 2015
Building, land and improvements | $ | 163,271 |
Land inventory | 6,045 |
Intangible assets acquired (a) | 50,637 |

For the three-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no acquisition related costs related to the transaction. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, $0.2 million of acquisition related costs are included as if the transaction occurred January 1, 2014.

On April 9, 2015, the Company acquired the leasehold interest in a 0.4 acre land parcel at 405 Colorado Street located in the central business district of Austin, Texas for $2.6 million. The property is currently being operated as a surface parking lot with the intent to develop the site into an office property. The Company has not yet determined the timing and cost of construction for the project as of September 30, 2015. The Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition.
On April 6, 2015, the Company acquired a 0.8 acre parcel of land, located at 25 M Street Southeast, Washington, D.C. for $20.3 million. The Company funded the cost of this acquisition with available corporate funds. The Company capitalized $0.3 million of acquisition related costs and these costs are included as part of land inventory on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. On May 12, 2015, the Company subsequently contributed the land parcel into a newly formed real estate venture known as 25 M Street Holdings, LLC (“25 M Street”), a joint venture between the Company and Jaco 25 M Investors, LLC (“Akridge”), an unaffiliated third party, with the intent to construct a 271,000 square foot Class A office property. The Company holds a 95.0% ownership interest in 25 M Street and Akridge contributed $1.0 million in cash for its 5.0% ownership interest in 25 M Street. The $1.0 million contribution from Akridge was distributed to the Company. 25 M Street is consolidated within the Company's financial statements. See Note 4, "Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures," for further information. The partners of the venture have not determined the timing and cost of construction for the project as of September 30, 2015.
On April 2, 2015, the Company acquired, from an unaffiliated third party, a property comprised of a parking garage with 330 parking spaces and mixed-use space totaling 14,404 rentable square feet located at 618 Market Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for an aggregate fair value of $19.4 million. The property is currently fully operational. The purchase price includes contingent consideration, recorded at fair value and payable to the seller upon commencement of development, totaling $1.6 million, and cash of $17.8 million.
The Company has treated the acquisition of 618 Market Street as a business combination and allocated the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets. The Company utilized a number of sources in making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating the purchase price to tangible and intangibles assets acquired. The Company allocated $19.2 million to building, land and improvements and $0.2 million to intangible assets.
The fair value of contingent consideration was determined using a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. The significant inputs to the discounted cash flow model was the discount rate and weighted probability scenarios. As the inputs are unobservable, the Company determined the inputs used to value this liability falls within Level 3 for fair value reporting. As of September 30, 2015, there was no significant changes to the inputs and the liability remains within Level 3 for fair value reporting.

The sales of properties referenced above do not represent a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. The operating results of these properties remain classified within continuing operations for all periods presented.
As a result of selling $206.4 million of real estate as of September 30, 2015, the Company increased its current year business plan disposition target to $400.0 million. The Company is exploring the disposition of several properties, individually or as a portfolio,
23

during the remainder of 2015 in alignment with its business plan. As of September 30, 2015, the Company has not entered into agreements, other than the six properties categorized as held for sale, to sell additional properties nor can we provide assurance as to any/or which properties for which a sale might be realized. Accordingly, the Company has prepared undiscounted cash flow analyses for the relevant properties based upon several reasonably possible scenarios and the estimated likelihood of each scenario occurring. These estimated probability weighted undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying values for the properties, and, therefore, no impairment charge has been recorded at September 30, 2015. Significant estimates were made in the determination of the future undiscounted cash flows, including expected future rents and operating expenses, holding periods, cash proceeds at the end of the estimated holding period and the probability of the various reasonably possible scenarios. Changes to estimates made by management for certain properties, including those related to holding periods, may result in the recognition of impairment losses, and such amounts could be material to the Company’s results of operations.
Impairments Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized $2.5 million in impairment charges on properties sold to reduce the carrying value of the properties to their sales price in connection with the anticipated disposition. The fair value measurement related to these impairment charges was determined by the respective sales agreement. As the sales price is unobservable, the Company determined that the significant input used to value these real estate investments falls within Level 3 for fair value reporting.
Held for Sale
As of September 30, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement of sale for six suburban New Jersey properties containing 560,147 rentable square feet for an anticipated sales price of $56.5 million. The properties have been designated as held for sale in accordance with applicable accounting standards for long lived assets. At such date, the fair value less the costs of sale exceed carrying value of the property and, as a result, no impairment loss was recognized. The fair value measurement was based on the sales agreement. As the sales price is unobservable, the Company determined that the significant inputs used to value these real estate investments falls within Level 3 for fair value reporting.
The disposal of the properties referenced above do not represent a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. Accordingly, the operating results of these properties remain classified within continuing operations for all periods presented.
4. INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED VENTURES
As of September 30, 2015, the Company held ownership interests in 17 unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures for an aggregate investment balance of $210.7 million, of which $211.8 million is included in assets and $1.1 million is included in other liabilities relating to the negative investment balance of one real estate venture. The Company formed or acquired interests in these ventures with unaffiliated third parties to develop or manage office, residential, and/or mixed-use properties or to acquire land in anticipation of possible development of office, residential and/or mixed-use properties. As of September 30, 2015, nine of the real estate ventures owned 29 office buildings that contain an aggregate of approximately 4.0 million net rentable square feet; three real estate ventures owned 4.4 acres of undeveloped parcels of land; three real estate ventures owned 22.5 acres of land under development; one real estate venture owned a residential tower that contains 345 apartment units and one real estate venture owned a hotel property that contains 137 rooms in Conshohocken, PA.
The Company accounts for its unconsolidated interests in its Real Estate Ventures using the equity method. The Company’s unconsolidated interests range from 20% to 70%, subject to specified priority allocations of distributable cash in certain of the Real Estate Ventures.
The amounts reflected in the following tables (except for the Company’s share of equity and income) are based on the historical financial information of the individual Real Estate Ventures. The Company does not record operating losses of a Real Estate Venture in excess of its investment balance unless the Company is liable for the obligations of the Real Estate Venture or is otherwise committed to provide financial support to the Real Estate Venture.

The following is a summary of the financial position of the Real Estate Ventures as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (in thousands):

| September 30, 2015 |  | December 31, 2014
Net property | $ | 1,165,941 |  |  | $ | 1,281,282 |
Other assets | 144,415 |  |  | 195,121 |
Other liabilities | 65,290 |  |  | 68,481 |
Debt | 761,067 |  |  | 965,077 |
Equity | 484,000 |  |  | 442,845 |
Company’s share of equity (Company’s basis) (a) (b) | $ | 211,771 |  |  | $ | 225,004 |

(a) | This amount includes the effect of the basis difference between the Company's historical cost basis and the basis recorded at the Real Estate Venture level, which is typically amortized over the life of the related assets and liabilities. Basis differentials occur from the impairment of investments, purchases of third party interests in existing Real Estate Ventures and upon the transfer of assets that were previously owned by the Company into a Real Estate Venture. In addition, certain acquisition, transaction and other costs may not be reflected in the net assets at the Real Estate Venture level.

(b) | Does not include the negative investment balance of one real estate venture totaling $1.1 million as of September 30, 2015 and $1.2 million as of December 31, 2014, which is included in other liabilities.

The Company held interests in 17 Real Estate Ventures containing an aggregate of approximately 4.0 million net rentable square feet as of the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 17 Real Estate Ventures containing an aggregate of approximately 5.9 million net rentable square feet as of the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014. The following is a summary of results of operations of the Real Estate Ventures in which the Company had interests during these periods (in thousands):

| Three-month periods ended September 30, |  | Nine-month periods ended September 30,

JBG - Ventures
On May 29, 2015, the Company and an unaffiliated third party, JBG/DC Manager, LLC ("JBG"), formed 51 N 50 Patterson, Holdings, LLC Venture ("51 N Street") and 1250 First Street Office, LLC Venture ("1250 First Street"), as real estate ventures, with the Company owning a 70.0% interest and JBG owning a 30.0% interest in each of the two ventures. At formation, the Company and JBG made cash contributions of $15.2 million and $6.5 million, respectively, to 51 N Street, which was used to purchase 0.9 acres of undeveloped land. At formation, the Company and JBG made cash capital contributions of $13.2 million and $5.7 million, respectively, to 1250 First Street, which was used to purchase 0.5 acres of undeveloped land.
Based upon the facts and circumstances at formation of each of the two ventures with JBG, the Company determined that each venture is a VIE in accordance with the accounting standard for the consolidation of VIEs. As a result, the Company used the variable interest model under the accounting standard for consolidation in order to determine whether to consolidate the JBG Ventures. JBG is the managing member of the ventures, and pursuant to the operating and related agreements, major decisions require the approval of both members. Based upon each member's shared power over the activities of each of the two ventures, which most significantly impact the economics of the ventures, neither venture is consolidated by the Company. Each venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

Broadmoor Austin Associates
On June 22, 2015, the Company became the sole owner of Broadmoor Austin Associates upon the Company's acquisition from an unaffiliated third party of the remaining 50.0% ownership interest in Broadmoor Austin Associates. Broadmoor Austin Associates owns seven office buildings in Austin, Texas. See Note 3, "Real Estate Investments," for further information.
25 M Street (Akridge)
On May 12, 2015, the Company contributed the parcel of land purchased on April 9, 2015 into a newly formed real estate venture known as 25 M Street, a joint venture between the Company and Akridge, an unaffiliated third party. See Note 3, "Real Estate Investments," for further information.
Based on the facts and circumstances at formation of 25 M Street, the Company determined that 25 M Street is a variable interest entity (VIE) in accordance with the accounting standard for consolidation of VIEs. Accordingly, the Company used the variable interest model under the accounting standard for consolidation in order to determine whether to consolidate 25 M Street. Under the operating and related agreements the Company has the power to control substantially all of the activities which most significantly impact the economics of 25 M Street, and accordingly, 25 M Street is consolidated within the Company’s financial statements. As of September 30, 2015, the carrying value of the assets of 25 M Street was $20.5 million.
DRA - PA Venture
On December 19, 2007, the Company formed G&I Interchange Office LLC, a real estate venture (the “Interchange Venture”), with an unaffiliated third party, G&I VI Investment Interchange Office LLC (“G&I VI”), an investment vehicle advised by DRA Advisors LLC. The Interchange Venture owns 29 office properties containing an aggregate of 1,611,961 net rentable square feet located in Montgomery, Lehigh and Bucks counties, Pennsylvania. The Company contributed these 29 properties to the Interchange Venture upon the Interchange Venture's formation and in exchange for the contribution received a cash distribution from the Venture and a 20.0% ownership interest in the Interchange Venture.
On February 27, 2015, the Interchange Venture entered into a forbearance agreement with an unaffiliated lender that holds a nonrecourse mortgage on the Venture's assets. The loan matured on January 1, 2015. On August 12, 2015, the lender sold the properties to an unaffiliated third-party purchaser under the forbearance agreement and assumed the proceeds. Commensurate with the sale, the Interchange Venture was dissolved.
The Company has no obligation to fund any amounts to the lender under the loan or mortgage. The Company has not had any investment basis in the Interchange Venture since formation of the Interchange Venture in 2007. The Company is not obligated to fund any of the losses incurred by the Interchange Venture and, as a result, has not recognized losses in excess of its invested capital balance.
Austin Venture
On January 30, 2015, the Austin Venture closed on a mortgage loan with a non-affiliated institutional lender, and used the proceeds of the loan to repay in full an $88.0 million short-term secured loan made by the Company to fund costs of the Austin Venture's acquisition of River Place. For further information regarding this acquisition, see Note 4, "Investment In Unconsolidated Ventures," included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.
Guarantees
As of September 30, 2015, the Company had provided guarantees on behalf of certain real estate ventures, consisting of (i) a $24.7 million payment guarantee on the construction loan for the project being undertaken by evo at Cira; (ii) a $3.2 million payment guarantee on the construction loan for the development project being undertaken by TB-BDN Plymouth Apartments; (iii) a several cost overrun guaranty on the $88.9 million construction loan for the development project being undertaken by 1919 Market Street LP; and (iv) a $0.5 million payment guarantee on a loan provided to PJP VII. In addition, during construction undertaken by real estate ventures, the Company has provided and expects to continue to provide cost overrun and completion guarantees, with rights of contribution among partners in the real estate ventures, as well as customary environmental indemnities and guarantees of customary exceptions to nonrecourse provisions in loan agreements.

6. DEBT OBLIGATIONS
During the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, the Company repaid $3.7 million and $10.9 million, respectively, of principal on its mortgage debt in the ordinary course of business. Except as indicated below with respect to the Company's revolving credit facility and unsecured Term Loan C, during these periods there were no changes to the outstanding balances of the Company's unsecured debt.
On August 19, 2015, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement to extend the maturity date of the mortgage note payable collateralized by two of its properties located at 8260 Greensboro Drive and 1676 International Drive in Mclean, Virginia (referred to as "Tysons Corner" in Note 7 "Debt Obligations" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014) until October 9, 2015. At September 30, 2015, the outstanding balance was $88.0 million. See Note 14, "Subsequent Events," for further information regarding the repayment of the note.
27

On May 15, 2015, the Company closed on a new four-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the "New Credit Facility") that provides for borrowings of up to $600.0 million. The Company expects to use advances under the New Credit Facility for general business purposes, including to fund costs of acquisitions, developments and redevelopments of properties, fund share repurchases and to repay from time to time other debt. On terms and conditions specified in the credit agreement, the Company may enter into unsecured term loans and/or increase the initial amount of the credit facility by up to, in the aggregate for all such term loans and increases, an additional $400.0 million. The New Credit Facility includes a $65.0 million sub-limit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $60.0 million sub-limit for swing-loans. The New Credit Facility has a scheduled maturity date of May 15, 2019, and is subject to two six-month extensions on terms and conditions specified in the credit agreement.
At the Company's option, loans outstanding under the New Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (1) LIBOR plus between 0.875% and 1.55% based on the Company's credit rating or (2) a base rate equal to the greatest of (a) the Administrative Agent's prime rate, (b) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% or (c) LIBOR for a one month period plus 1.00%, in each case, plus a margin ranging from 0.0% to 0.55% based on the Company's credit rating. The New Credit Facility also contains a competitive bid option that allows banks that are part of the lender consortium to bid to make loan advances to the Company at a reduced interest rate. In addition, the Company is also obligated to pay (1) in quarterly installments a facility fee on the total commitment at a rate per annum ranging from 0.125% to 0.30% based on the Company's credit rating and (2) an annual fee on the undrawn amount of each letter or credit equal to the LIBOR Margin. Based on the Company's current credit rating, the LIBOR margin is 1.20% and the facility fee is 0.25%. The Company had no borrowings under the New Credit Facility as of September 30, 2015.
The terms of the New Credit Facility require that the Company maintain customary financial and other covenants, including: (i) a fixed charge coverage ratio greater than or equal to 1.5 to 1.00; (ii) a minimum net worth; (iii) a leverage ratio less than or equal to 0.60 to 1.00, subject to specified exceptions; (iv) a ratio of unsecured indebtedness to unencumbered asset value less than or equal to 0.60 to 1.00, subject to specified exceptions; (v) a ratio of secured indebtedness to total asset value less than or equal to 0.40 to 1.00; and (vi) a ratio of unencumbered cash flow to interest expense on unsecured debt greater than 1.75 to 1.00. In addition, the New Credit Facility restricts payments of dividends and distributions on shares in excess of 95% of the Company's funds from operations (FFO) except to the extent necessary to enable the Company to continue to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes. At September 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenants in the New Credit Facility.
Concurrently with its entry into the New Credit Facility, the Company terminated its then existing unsecured revolving credit facility, which had a scheduled maturity date of February 1, 2016.
On June 1, 2015, the Company amended its Term Loan C Agreement dated December 15, 2011 to align the above aforementioned financial and operating covenants and restrictions of the New Credit Facility with that of Term Loan C. The amendment was filed as part of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2015. See Item 6.,"Exhibits."

7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company determined the fair values disclosed below using available market information and discounted cash flow analyses as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The discount rate used in calculating fair value is the sum of the current risk free rate and the risk premium on the date of measurement of the instruments or obligations. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and to develop the related estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize upon disposition. The use of different estimates and valuation methodologies may have a material effect on the fair value amounts shown. The Company believes that the carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 approximate the fair values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The following are financial instruments for which the Company’s estimates of fair value differ from the carrying amounts (in thousands):

| September 30, 2015 |  | December 31, 2014
| Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value |  | Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value
Unsecured notes payable | $ | 1,518,931 |  |  | $ | 1,552,682 |  |  | $ | 1,518,108 |  |  | $ | 1,593,212 |
Variable rate debt | $ | 278,610 |  |  | $ | 254,405 |  |  | $ | 278,610 |  |  | $ | 257,188 |
Mortgage notes payable | $ | 642,396 |  |  | $ | 673,959 |  |  | $ | 654,590 |  |  | $ | 707,241 |
Mortgage note receivable (a) | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 88,000 |  |  | $ | 87,692 |

28

(a) | On January 30, 2015 the mortgage note was repaid. For further information regarding the mortgage note, see Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

The fair value of the Company's unsecured notes payable are categorized as Level 2 (as provided by the accounting standard for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures). This is because the Company valued these instruments using quoted market prices as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. For the fair value of the Company's variable rate debt, the Company uses a discount rate based on the indicative new issue pricing provided by lenders.
The fair value of the Company's mortgage notes payable, variable rate debt and mortgage note receivable are all categorized at a Level 3 basis (as provided by the accounting standard for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures). The fair value of the variable rate debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis valuation on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities, as applicable. The fair value of the mortgage debt was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by a blended market rate for loans with similar terms, maturities and loan-to-value. The fair value of the mortgage note receivable was determined by using the expected cash flows of the notes receivable, and discounting those cash flows using the market rate of interest for mortgage notes with a comparable level of risk. These financial instruments have been categorized as Level 3 because the Company considers the rates used in the valuation techniques to be unobservable inputs.
For the Company's mortgage loans, the Company uses an estimate based on its knowledge of the mortgage market. The weighted average discount rate for the combined variable rate debt and mortgage loans used to calculate fair value as of September 30, 2015 was 4.5%. An increase in the discount rate used in the discounted cash flow model would result in a decrease to the fair value of the Company's long-term debt. Conversely, a decrease in the discount rate used in the discounted cash flow model would result in an increase to the fair value of the Company's long-term debt.
Disclosure about the fair value of financial instruments is based upon pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since September 30, 2015, and current estimates of fair value may differ from the amounts presented herein.
8. LIMITED PARTNERS' NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS IN THE PARENT COMPANY
Non-controlling interests in the Parent Company’s financial statements relate to redeemable common limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership held by parties other than the Parent Company and properties which are consolidated but not wholly owned.
Operating Partnership
The aggregate book value of the non-controlling interests associated with the redeemable common limited partnership interests in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of the Parent Company as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $16.9 million and $17.5 million, respectively. Under the applicable accounting guidance, the redemption value of limited partnership units are carried at, on a limited partner basis, the greater of historical cost adjusted for the allocation of income and distributions or fair value. The Parent Company believes that the aggregate settlement value of these interests (based on the number of units outstanding and the closing price of the common shares on the balance sheet dates as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, was approximately $18.9 million and $24.5 million.

Redeemable common limited partnership units totaling 1,535,102 and 1,721,905 as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, were excluded from the diluted earnings per share computations because they are not dilutive.
Unvested restricted shares are considered participating securities which require the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. For the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, earnings representing nonforfeitable dividends as noted in the table above were allocated to the unvested restricted shares issued to the Company’s executives and other employees under the Company's shareholder-approved long-term incentive plan.
Common and Preferred Shares
On September 15, 2015, the Parent Company declared a distribution of $0.15 per common share, totaling $26.6 million, payable on October 19, 2015 to shareholders of record as of October 5, 2015.

These shares are entitled to a preferential return of 6.90% per annum on the $25.00 per share liquidation preference. Distributions to be paid on October 15, 2015 to holders of Series E Preferred Shares will total $1.7 million.
On July 22, 2015, the Company's Board of Trustees authorized share repurchases of up to $100.0 million of its common shares with no expiration date. Prior to the authorization 539,200 common shares were available for repurchase under the preexisting share repurchase program. The Company expects to fund the share repurchases with a combination of available cash balances and availability under its line of credit. As of September 30, 2015, 4,701,302 common shares have been repurchased and retired by the Company at an average purchase price of $12.92 per share and totaling $60.8 million. The timing and amounts of any purchases will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, regulatory requirements, share prices, capital availability and other factors as determined by the Company's management team. The repurchase program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice.
31

On November 5, 2013, the Parent Company commenced a continuous equity offering program (the “Offering Program”), under which it may sell, in at-the-market offerings, up to an aggregate amount of 16,000,000 common shares until November 5, 2016. The Parent Company may sell common shares in amounts and at times to be determined by the Parent Company. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Parent Company, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common shares and determinations by the Parent Company of the appropriate sources of funding. Sales agents engaged by the Parent Company under the Offering Program are entitled to receive, as compensation and in aggregate, up to 2% of the gross sales price per share sold under the Offering Program. From inception of the Offering Program through September 30, 2015, the Parent Company had not sold any shares under the program, leaving 16,000,000 remaining shares available for sale.

Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as total revenue less property operating expenses, real estate taxes and third party management expenses. Segment NOI includes revenue, real estate taxes and property operating expenses directly related to operation and management of the properties owned and managed within the respective geographical region. Segment NOI excludes property level depreciation and amortization, revenue and expenses directly associated with third party real estate management services, expenses associated with corporate administrative support services, and inter-company eliminations. NOI also does not reflect general and administrative expenses, interest expenses, real estate impairment losses, depreciation and amortization costs, capital expenditures and leasing costs. Trends in development and construction activities that could materially impact the Company’s results from operations are also not reflected in NOI. All companies may not calculate NOI in the same manner. NOI is the measure that is used by the Company to evaluate the operating performance of its real estate assets by segment. The Company also believes that NOI provides useful information to investors regarding its financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expenses recorded at the property level. The Company believes that net income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved from time to time in litigation on various matters, including disputes with tenants and disputes arising out of agreements to purchase or sell properties. Given the nature of the Company’s business activities, these lawsuits are considered routine to the conduct of its business. The result of any particular lawsuit cannot be predicted, because of the very nature of litigation, the litigation process and its adversarial nature, and the jury system. The Company will establish reserves for specific legal proceedings when it determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and when the amount of loss is reasonably estimable. The Company does not expect that the liabilities, if any, which may ultimately result from any current legal actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Environmental
As an owner of real estate, the Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state, and local governments. The Company’s compliance with existing laws has not had a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations, and the Company does not believe it will have a material adverse effect in the future. However, the Company cannot predict the impact of unforeseen environmental contingencies or new or changed laws or regulations on its current Properties or on properties that the Company may acquire.
37

Ground Rent
Future minimum rental payments under the terms of all non-cancelable ground leases under which the Company is the lessee are expensed on a straight-line basis regardless of when payments are due. The Company’s ground leases have remaining lease terms ranging from 6 to 74 years. Minimum future rental payments on non-cancelable leases at September 30, 2015 are as follows (in thousands):

2015 (three months remaining) | $ | 461 |
2016 | 1,385 |
2017 | 1,385 |
2018 | 1,385 |
2019 | 1,385 |
Thereafter | 68,499 |
Total | $ | 74,500 |

The Company obtained ground tenancy rights related to certain properties in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which provide for contingent rent participation by the lessor in certain capital transactions and net operating cash flows of the properties after certain returns are achieved by the Company. Such amounts, if any, will be reflected as contingent rent when incurred. The leases also provide for payment by the Company of certain operating costs relating to the land, primarily real estate taxes. The above schedule of future minimum rental payments does not include any contingent rent amounts or any reimbursed expenses. Reference is made in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 for further detail regarding commitments and contingencies.
Put Option
On May 4, 2015, the Company entered into a put agreement in the ordinary course of business that grants an unaffiliated third party the unilateral option to require the Company to purchase a property, at a predetermined price, until May 4, 2018. In addition to the $35.0 million purchase price, the Company would be responsible for transaction and closing costs. There can be no assurance that the counterparty will exercise the option.
13. HISTORIC TAX CREDIT
On November 17, 2008, the Company closed a transaction with US Bancorp (“USB”) related to the historic rehabilitation of the IRS Philadelphia Campus, a 862,692 square foot office building that is 100% leased to the IRS. On August 27, 2010, the Company completed the development of the IRS Philadelphia Campus and the IRS lease commenced. In connection with this completed development project, USB contributed to the Company $64.1 million of total project costs.
In exchange for its contributions to the development of the IRS Philadelphia Campus, USB is entitled to substantially all of the benefits derived from the tax rehabilitation credits available under section 47 of the Internal Revenue Code. USB does not have a material interest in the underlying economics of the property. This transaction includes a put/call provision whereby the Company may be obligated or entitled to repurchase USB’s interest in the IRS Philadelphia Campus. The put option was exercised on September 30, 2015 and USB's interest in the IRS Philadelphia Campus was assigned to the Company. A purchase price of $3.2 million was attributed to that puttable non-controlling interest obligation, which was funded with available corporate funds. Upon exercise of the put option, the Company funded USB's final 2% preferred return of $1.0 million. Amounts included in interest expense related to the accretion of the non-controlling interest liability and the 2% return expected to be paid to USB on its non-controlling interest aggregates to $1.1 million for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Based on the contractual arrangements that obligate the Company to deliver tax benefits and provide other guarantees to USB and that entitle the Company through fee arrangements to receive substantially all available cash flow from the IRS Philadelphia Campus, the Company concluded that the IRS Philadelphia Campus should be consolidated. The Company also concluded that capital contributions received from USB, in substance, are consideration that the Company receives in exchange for its obligation to deliver tax credits and other tax benefits to USB. These receipts other than the amounts allocated to the put obligation will be recognized as revenue in the consolidated financial statements beginning when the obligation to USB is relieved which occurs upon delivery of the expected tax benefits net of any associated costs. The tax credit is subject to 20% recapture per year beginning one year after the completion of the IRS Philadelphia Campus. Beginning September 2011 to September 2015, the Company recognized the cash received as revenue net of allocated expenses over the five year credit recapture period as defined in the Internal Revenue Code within other income (expense) in its consolidated statement of operations. The fifth and final recapture period ended September 30, 2015 and the Company recognized $11.9 million of cash received as revenue, net of $0.5 million of allocated expenses within other income (expense) it its consolidated statement of operations. The total USB contributions presented in the Company's balance sheet were $0.0 million and $15.1 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The
38

contributions were recorded net of the amounts allocated to non-controlling interest for 2014, as described above of $3.0 million at year end December 31, 2014, with the remaining balance presented within deferred income.
Direct and incremental costs incurred in structuring the transaction are deferred and will be recognized as expense in the consolidated financial statements upon the recognition of the related revenue as discussed above. The deferred costs at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are $0.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively, and are included in other assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.
14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Repayment of Mortgage Note Payable - Tysons Corner
On October 9, 2015, the Company funded $88.4 million, including $0.4 million of accrued interest, in repayment of the Tysons Corner mortgage note with funds from the additional borrowings under the seven-year term loan referenced below.
Additional Borrowings under Seven-Year Term Loan
On October 8, 2015, the Company amended its $200.0 million seven-year term loan maturing February 1, 2019. Pursuant to the terms of the amendment, the Company increased the term loan by an additional $50.0 million, lengthened the maturity date to October 8, 2022, and exercised the option to increase the aggregate amount by up to $150.0 million. The loan will bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.80%. Through a series of interest rate swaps, the $250.0 million outstanding balance of the term loan will have a fixed interest rate of 3.72%.

Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other materials filed by us with the SEC (as well as information included in oral or other written statements made by us) contain statements that are forward-looking, including statements relating to business and real estate development activities, acquisitions, dispositions, future capital expenditures, financing sources, governmental regulation (including environmental regulation) and competition. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions of the 1995 Act. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “should” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our expectations will be achieved. As forward-looking statements, these statements involve important risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expected results and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, but are not limited to:

• | the continuing impact of modest global economic growth, which is having and may have a negative effect on the following, among other things:

• | the fundamentals of our business, including overall market occupancy, demand for office space and rental rates;

• | the financial condition of our tenants, many of which are financial, legal and other professional firms, our lenders, counterparties to our derivative financial instruments and institutions that hold our cash balances and short-term investments, which may expose us to increased risks of default by these parties;

• | the availability of financing on attractive terms or at all, which may adversely impact our future interest expense and our ability to pursue acquisition and development opportunities and refinance existing debt; and

• | a decline in real estate asset valuations, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or obtain or maintain debt financing secured by our properties or on an unsecured basis.

• | changes in local real estate conditions (including changes in rental rates and the number of properties that compete with our properties);

• | our failure to lease unoccupied space in accordance with our projections;

• | our failure to re-lease occupied space upon expiration of leases;

• | tenant defaults and the bankruptcy of major tenants;

• | increases in interest rates;

• | failure of interest rate hedging contracts to perform as expected and the effectiveness of such arrangements;

• | failure of acquisitions to perform as expected;

• | unanticipated costs associated with the acquisition, integration and operation of our acquisitions;

• | unanticipated costs to complete, lease-up and operate our developments and redevelopments;

• | unanticipated costs associated with land development, including building moratoriums and inability to obtain necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other required governmental approvals, construction cost increases or overruns and construction delays;

• | impairment charges;

• | increased costs for, or lack of availability of, adequate insurance, including for terrorist acts or environmental liabilities;

• | actual or threatened terrorist attacks;

• | the impact on workplace and tenant space demands driven by technology, employee culture and commuting patterns;

• | demand for tenant services beyond those traditionally provided by landlords;

• | liability and clean-up costs under environmental or other laws;

• | failure or bankruptcy of real estate venture partners;

• | inability of real estate venture partners to fund venture obligations or perform under our real estate venture development agreements;

• | failure to manage effectively our growth into new product types within our real estate venture arrangements;

• | failure of dispositions to close in a timely manner;

• | failure of buyers of our properties to comply with terms of their financing agreements to us;

• | earthquakes and other natural disasters;

• | the unforeseen impact of climate change and compliance costs relating to laws and regulations governing climate change;

• | risks associated with federal, state and local tax audits;

• | complex regulations relating to our status as a REIT and the adverse consequences of our failure to qualify as a REIT; and

40

• | the impact of newly adopted accounting principles on our accounting policies and on period-to-period comparisons of financial results.

Given these uncertainties, and the other risks identified in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, we caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events.
The discussion that follows is based primarily on our consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and should be read along with the consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. The ability to compare one period to another may be significantly affected by acquisitions completed, development properties placed in service and dispositions made during those periods.
OVERVIEW
As of September 30, 2015, we owned 192 properties that contain an aggregate of approximately 24.8 million net rentable square feet and consist of 155 office properties, 20 industrial facilities, four mixed-use properties, one retail property (180 core properties), six properties classified as held for sale, four development properties, one redevelopment property and one re-entitlement property (collectively, the "Properties"). In addition, as of September 30, 2015, we owned economic interests in 17 unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures that contain approximately 4.0 million net rentable square feet, 4.4 acres of undeveloped parcels of land and 22.5 acres of land under development (collectively, the "Real Estate Ventures"). In addition to managing properties that we own, as of September 30, 2015, we were managing approximately 6.2 million net rentable square feet of office and industrial properties for third parties and the Real Estate Ventures.
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015, we were managing our portfolio within seven segments: (1) Pennsylvania Suburbs, (2) Philadelphia CBD, (3) Metropolitan Washington, D.C., (4) New Jersey/Delaware, (5) Richmond, Virginia, (6) Austin, Texas and (7) California. The Pennsylvania Suburbs segment includes properties in Chester, Delaware and Montgomery counties in the Philadelphia suburbs. The Philadelphia CBD segment includes properties located in the City of Philadelphia in Pennsylvania. The Metropolitan Washington, D.C. segment includes properties in Northern Virginia, Washington, D.C. and southern Maryland. The New Jersey/Delaware segment includes properties in Burlington and Camden counties in New Jersey and in New Castle county in the state of Delaware. The Richmond, Virginia segment includes properties primarily in Albemarle, Goochland, Chesterfield, and Henrico counties and one property in Durham, North Carolina. The Austin, Texas segment includes properties in the City of Austin, Texas. The California segment includes properties in Oakland, Concord and Carlsbad. Our corporate group is responsible for cash and investment management, development of certain real estate properties during the construction period, and certain other general support functions.
We generate cash and revenue from leases of space at our properties and, to a lesser extent, from the management of properties owned by third parties and from investments in the Real Estate Ventures. Factors that we evaluate when leasing space include rental rates, costs of tenant improvements, tenant creditworthiness, current and expected operating costs, the length of the lease term, vacancy levels and demand for office and industrial space. We also generate cash through sales of assets, including assets that we do not view as core to our portfolio, either because of location or expected growth potential, and assets that are commanding premium prices from third party investors.
Our financial and operating performance is dependent upon the demand for office, industrial and other commercial space in our markets, our leasing results, our acquisition, disposition and development activity, our financing activity, our cash requirements and economic and market conditions, including prevailing interest rates.
Adverse changes in economic conditions could reduce the availability of financing and potentially increase borrowing costs. Vacancy rates may increase, and rental rates may decline, through 2015 and possibly beyond as the economic climate contains demand for commercial space and negatively impact tenants.
Overall economic conditions, including but not limited to deteriorating financial and credit markets, could have a dampening effect on the fundamentals of our business, including increases in past due accounts, tenant defaults, lower occupancy and reduced effective rents. These conditions would negatively affect our future net income and cash flows and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. We believe that the quality of our assets and our strong balance sheet will enable us to raise debt capital, if necessary, in various forms and from different sources, including traditional term or secured loans from banks, pension funds and life insurance companies. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to borrow funds on terms that are economically attractive or at all.
41

We continue to seek revenue growth throughout our portfolio by increasing occupancy and rental rates. Occupancy at our core properties at September 30, 2015 was 92.5% compared to 91.4% at December 31, 2014
The table below summarizes selected operating and leasing statistics of our core properties for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015:

| Three-month period ended |  | Nine-month period ended

(1) | Includes all properties in the core portfolio (i.e. not under development, redevelopment, sold or classified as held for sale).

(2) | Includes leasing related to completed developments and redevelopments.

(3) | Rental rates include base rent plus reimbursement for operating expenses and real estate taxes.

(4) | Calculated on a weighted average basis.

In seeking to increase revenue through our operating, financing and investment activities, we also seek to minimize operating risks, including (i) tenant rollover risk, (ii) tenant credit risk and (iii) development risk.
Tenant Rollover Risk:
We are subject to the risk that tenant leases, upon expiration, will not be renewed, that space may not be relet, or that the terms of renewal or reletting (including the cost of renovations) may be less favorable to us than the current lease terms. Leases that accounted for approximately 0.6% of our aggregate final annualized base rents as of September 30, 2015 (representing approximately 0.9% of the net rentable square feet of the Properties) are scheduled to expire without penalty in 2015. We maintain an active dialogue with our tenants in an effort to maximize lease renewals. In our core portfolio the retention rate for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 was 76.4% compared to a retention rate of 71.4% for the year ended December 31, 2014. Rental rates on leases expiring during 2015 did not deviate significantly from market renewal rates in the regions in which we operate. If we are unable to renew leases or relet space under expiring leases, at anticipated rental rates, or if tenants terminate their leases early, our cash flow would be adversely impacted.
Tenant Credit Risk:
In the event of a tenant default, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as a landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment. Our management regularly evaluates our accounts receivable reserve policy in light of our tenant base and general and local economic conditions. Our accounts receivable allowance was $15.3 million or 8.7% of total receivables (including accrued rent receivables) as of September 30, 2015 compared to $15.3 million or 9.1% of total receivables (including accrued rent receivables) as of December 31, 2014.
42

If economic conditions persist or deteriorate further, we may experience increases in past due accounts, defaults, lower occupancy and reduced effective rents. This condition would negatively affect our future net income and cash flows and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
Development Risk:
Development projects are subject to a variety of risks, including construction delays, construction cost overruns, inability to obtain financing on favorable terms, inability to lease space at projected rates, inability to enter into construction, development and other agreements on favorable terms, and unexpected environmental and other hazards.
As of September 30, 2015, the following development properties and joint venture development projects remain under construction (in thousands, except square footage/acreage and number of buildings):
Wholly Owned Developments:

Construction Commencement Date |  | Expected Completion |  | Activity Type |  | Property/Portfolio Name |  | Location |  | Number of Buildings |  | Square Footage |  | Estimated Costs |  | Amount Funded

Reference is made to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 for project overviews, as well as risks associated with these development projects. See Item 2., "Liquidity and Capital Resources - Commitments and Contingencies" for contractual commitments relating to our ongoing development projects.
Land Holdings
As of September 30, 2015, we owned approximately 413 acres of undeveloped land, and held options to purchase approximately 63 additional acres of undeveloped land. As market conditions warrant, we will seek to opportunistically dispose of those parcels that we do not anticipate developing. For parcels of land that we ultimately develop, we will be subject to risks and costs associated with land development, including building moratoriums and the inability to obtain necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other required governmental approvals, construction cost increases or overruns and construction delays, and insufficient
43

occupancy rates and rental rates. As of September 30, 2015, the total potential development that these land parcels could support, under current zoning, entitlements or combination thereof, amounted to 7.8 million square feet of development, inclusive of the options to purchase approximately 63 additional acres of undeveloped land.
Impairments and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets
We review our long-lived assets for impairment each quarter and when there is an event or change in circumstances that indicates an impairment in value. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. In such case, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount of the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is highly subjective and is based in part on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results in future periods. The cash flow analysis is based on reasonably possible alternative courses of action and the estimated likelihood of each scenario occurring. Since cash flows on properties considered to be “long-lived assets to be held and used” are considered on an undiscounted basis to determine whether an asset has been impaired, our established strategy of holding properties over the long term directly decreases the likelihood of recording an impairment loss. If our holding strategy were to change or if market conditions were to otherwise dictate an earlier sale date, then an impairment loss may be recognized and such loss could be material.
As a result of selling $206.4 million of real estate as of September 30, 2015, we have increased our current year business plan disposition target to $400.0 million. We are exploring the disposition of several properties, individually or as a portfolio, during the remainder of 2015 in alignment with our business plan. As of September 30, 2015, we have not entered into agreements, other than the six properties categorized as held for sale, to sell additional properties nor can we provide assurance as to any/or which properties for which a sale might be realized. Accordingly, we have prepared undiscounted cash flow analyses for the relevant properties based upon several reasonably possible scenarios and the estimated likelihood of each scenario occurring. These estimated probability weighted undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying values for the properties, and, therefore, no impairment charge has been recorded at September 30, 2015. Significant estimates were made in the determination of the future undiscounted cash flows, including expected future rents and operating expenses, holding periods, cash proceeds at the end of the estimated holding period and the probability of the various reasonably possible scenarios. Changes made by management for certain properties, including those related to holding periods, may result in the recognition of impairment losses, and such amounts could be material to the our results of operations.
Equity Method Investment Valuation
We report our equity method investments on the balance sheet at cost. As required under accounting rules, we periodically evaluate and assess our equity method investments for other than temporary impairment. We generally use a combination of comparable market sales, internal appraisals, cash flow analysis and independent broker quotes of the properties in valuing our underlying equity method investments. To the extent we are unable to lease our development projects as planned, incur greater construction costs than planned, or if real estate market conditions deteriorate, it could result in a decline in the fair value of our equity method investments that are other-than-temporary and we might incur impairment charges that are material. Significant estimates were made in the valuation of our equity method investments including tenant lease up, discount rates, capitalization rates, determination of the future discounted cash flows, including expected future rents and operating expenses.
RECENT PROPERTY TRANSACTIONS
Acquisitions
On August 11, 2015, we acquired a 2.7 acre parcel of land containing a vacant office building, located at 9 Presidential Boulevard, Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania, for $4.1 million with available corporate funds. We intend to demolish the vacant building and develop the property but we have not yet determined the timing and cost of construction for the project as of September 30, 2015. We accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition.
On July 7, 2015, we acquired a 0.8 acre parcel of land located at 2100 Market Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for $18.8 million. We funded $16.8 million of the purchase price with available corporate funds and the remaining $2.0 million of the purchase price was deferred until the earlier of the commencement of development or 24 months from settlement. We accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition and capitalized a nominal amount of acquisition related costs and other costs as part of land inventory on our consolidated balance sheet. In connection with the purchase agreement, if certain land parcels adjacent to 2100 Market Street are acquired from unaffiliated third parties, we may be required to pay additional consideration to the seller of 2100 Market Street. The unaffiliated third parties are not party to this transaction and any land parcels acquired will be acquired in arms length transactions. The amount of additional consideration, if any, is contingent on the purchase price of the adjacent

land parcels and cannot be determined at this time. We have not yet determined the timing and cost of construction for the project as of September 30, 2015.
On June 22, 2015, through a series of transactions with International Business Machines ("IBM"), we acquired the remaining 50.0% interest in Broadmoor Austin Associates, consisting of seven office buildings and the 66.0 acre underlying land parcel located in Austin, Texas, for an aggregate purchase price of $211.4 million. The office buildings contain 1,112,236 net rentable square feet of office space and were 100.0% occupied as of June 30, 2015. We funded the cost of the acquisition with an aggregate cash payment of $143.8 million, consisting of $81.0 million from available corporate funds and $62.8 million previously held in escrow related to a Section 1031 like-kind exchange. Part of the cash payment was used at closing to repay, at no repayment penalty, the remaining $51.2 million of secured debt. We incurred $0.2 million of acquisition related costs that are classified within general and administrative expenses.
We previously accounted for our 50.0% non-controlling interest in Broadmoor Austin Associates under the equity method of accounting. As a result of acquiring IBM's remaining 50.0% common interest in Broadmoor Austin Associates, we obtained control of Broadmoor Austin Associates and our existing investment balance was remeasured based on fair value of the underlying properties acquired and the existing distribution provisions under the relevant partnership agreement. As a result, we recorded a $0.8 million gain on remeasurement.
On April 9, 2015, we acquired the leasehold interest in an approximately 0.4 acre land parcel at 405 Colorado Street located in the central business district of Austin, Texas for $2.6 million. The property is currently operated as a surface parking lot. We intend to develop this site into mixed-use property. We have not yet determined the timing and cost of construction for the project as of September 30, 2015. We accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition.
On April 6, 2015, we acquired a 0.8 acre parcel of land, located at 25 M Street Southeast, Washington, D.C. for $20.3 million. We funded the cost of this acquisition with available corporate funds. We capitalized $0.3 million of acquisition related costs and these costs are included as part of land inventory on our consolidated balance sheet. On May 12, 2015, we contributed the land parcel into a newly formed real estate venture known as 25 M Street Holdings, LLC (“25 M Street”), a joint venture between us and Jaco 25M Investors, LLC (“Akridge”), an unaffiliated third party, with the intent to construct a 271,000 square foot Class A office property. We hold a 95.0% ownership interest in 25 M Street and Akridge contributed $1.0 million in cash for its 5.0% ownership interest in 25 M Street. The $1.0 million contribution from Akridge was distributed to us. 25 M Street is consolidated within our financial statements. See Note 4, "Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures," for further information. The partners of the venture have not determined the timing and cost of construction for the project as of September 30, 2015.
On April 2, 2015, we acquired, from an unaffiliated third party, a property comprised of a parking garage with 330 parking spaces and mixed-use space totaling 14,404 rentable square feet located at 618 Market Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for an aggregate fair value of $19.4 million. The property is currently fully operational. The purchase price includes contingent consideration, recorded at fair value and payable to the seller upon commencement of development, totaling $1.6 million and cash of $17.8 million.
We have treated the acquisition of 618 Market Street as a business combination and allocated the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets. We utilized a number of sources in making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating the purchase price to tangible and intangibles assets acquired. We allocated $19.2 million to building, land and improvements and $0.2 million to intangible assets.

The properties have been designated as held for sale in accordance with applicable accounting standards for long lived assets.
The disposal of the properties referenced above do not represent a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. Accordingly, the operating results of these properties remain classified within continuing operations for all periods presented.
JBG - Venture
On May 29, 2015, we and an unaffiliated third party, JBG/DC Manager, LLC ("JBG"), formed 51 N 50 Patterson, Holdings, LLC Venture ("51 N Street") and 1250 First Street Office, LLC Venture ("1250 First Street"), as real estate ventures, with us owning a 70.0% interest and JBG owning a 30.0% interest in each of the two ventures. At formation, we and JBG made cash contributions of $15.2 million and $6.5 million, respectively, to 51 N Street, which was used to purchase 0.9 acres of undeveloped land. At formation, we and JBG made cash capital contributions of $13.2 million and $5.7 million, respectively, to 1250 First Street, which was used to purchase 0.5 acres of undeveloped land.
51 N Street expects to construct two mixed-use buildings, which will include approximately 278,000 square feet of loft office, residential, ground floor retail, movie theater and on-grade public plaza space in Washington, D.C. 51 N Street expects to develop the office buildings on parcels contributed by us and JBG to the venture at an agreed upon value of $21.7 million. As of September 30, 2015, the venture has not finalized development plans or received committed debt financing. The venture plans to fund the remaining amount, which has not yet been determined.
1250 First Street expects to construct an eleven-story, mixed-use building, which will include approximately 232,100 square feet of office, 15,300 square feet of retail and 145 below-grade parking spaces in Washington, D.C. 1250 First Street expects to develop the office building on a parcel contributed by us and JBG to the venture at an agreed upon value of $18.9 million. As of September 30, 2015, the venture has not finalized development plans or received committed debt financing. The venture plans to fund the remaining amount, which has not yet been determined.
DRA - PA Venture
On December 19, 2007, we formed G&I Interchange Office LLC, a real estate venture (the “Interchange Venture”), with an unaffiliated third party, G&I VI Investment Interchange Office LLC (“G&I VI”), an investment vehicle advised by DRA Advisors LLC. The Interchange Venture owns 29 office properties containing an aggregate of 1,611,961 net rentable square feet located in Montgomery, Lehigh and Bucks counties, Pennsylvania. We contributed these 29 properties to the Interchange Venture upon the Interchange Venture's formation and in exchange for the contribution received a cash distribution from the Interchange Venture and a 20.0% ownership interest in the Interchange Venture.
On February 27, 2015, the Interchange Venture entered into a forbearance agreement with an unaffiliated lender that holds a nonrecourse mortgage on the Interchange Venture's assets. The loan matured on January 1, 2015. On August 12, 2015, the lender sold the properties to an unaffiliated third-party purchaser under the forbearance agreement and assumed the proceeds. Commensurate with the sale, the Interchange Venture was dissolved.
We have no obligation to fund any amounts to the lender under the loan or mortgage. We have not had any investment basis in the Interchange Venture since its formation in 2007. We are not obligated to fund any of the losses incurred by the Venture and, as a result, have not recognized losses in excess of our invested capital balance.
Austin Venture
On January 30, 2015, the Austin Venture closed on a mortgage loan with a non-affiliated institutional lender, and used the proceeds of the loan to repay in full an $88.0 million short-term secured loan made by us to fund costs of the Austin Venture's acquisition of River Place. For further information regarding this acquisition, see Note 4, "Investment In Unconsolidated Ventures," included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discuss our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Certain accounting policies are considered to be critical accounting policies, as they require management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made and changes in accounting estimate are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and current economic conditions. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and assumptions including those related to revenue, impairment of long-lived assets and the allowance for doubtful accounts. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 contains a discussion of our critical accounting policies. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2014. See also Note 2, "Basis of Presentation," in our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 set forth herein. Management discusses our critical accounting policies and management’s judgments and estimates with our Audit Committee.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion is based on our Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. We believe that presentation of our consolidated financial information, without a breakdown by segment, will effectively present important information useful to our investors.
Net operating income (“NOI”) as presented in the comparative analysis below is defined as revenue less property operating expenses, real estate taxes and third party management expenses. Property operating expenses that are included in determining NOI consist of costs that are necessary and allocable to our operating properties such as utilities, property-level salaries, repairs and maintenance, property insurance, management fees and bad debt expense. General and administrative expenses that are not reflected in NOI primarily consist of corporate-level salaries, amortization of share awards and professional fees that are incurred as part of corporate office management. NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that we use internally to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate assets by segment, as presented in Note 11, "Segment Information," to the consolidated financial statements, and of our business as a whole. We believe NOI provides useful information to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level. While NOI is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance of real estate investment trusts, it does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. NOI does not reflect interest expenses, real estate impairment losses, depreciation and amortization costs, capital expenditures and leasing costs. We believe that net income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. See Note 11, "Segment Information," to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of NOI to our consolidated net income (loss).
Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014
The table below shows selected operating information for the “Same Store Property Portfolio” and the “Total Portfolio.” The Same Store Property Portfolio consists of 173 properties containing an aggregate of approximately 21.5 million net rentable square feet, and represents properties that we owned for the entire three-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. The Same Store Property Portfolio includes properties acquired or placed in service on or prior to July 1, 2014 and owned and held for sale through September 30, 2015. The Total Portfolio includes the effects of other properties that were either placed into service, acquired or redeveloped after January 1, 2014, disposed of prior to September 30, 2015 or classified as held for sale as of September 30, 2015. A property is excluded from our Same Store Property Portfolio and moved into the redevelopment column in the period that we determine that a redevelopment would be the best use of the asset, and when said asset is taken out of service or is undergoing re-entitlement for a future development strategy. This table also includes a reconciliation from the Same Store Property Portfolio to the Total Portfolio net income (i.e., all properties owned by us during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014) by providing information for the properties which were acquired, placed into service, under development or redevelopment and administrative/elimination information for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands).
The Total Portfolio net income presented in the table is equal to the net income of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership.

Total Revenue
Cash rents from the Total Portfolio increased by $0.8 million during the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014, primarily attributable to a:

• | $7.2 million decrease due to 21 properties sold subsequent to the third quarter of 2014;

• | $4.7 million increase in the Same Store Property Portfolio due to a 2.9% increase in occupancy for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014;

• | $2.7 million increase from Recently Completed/Acquired Properties for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014; and

• | $0.5 million increase from Development/Redevelopment Properties for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014.

Straight-line rents increased by $1.9 million on a consolidated basis due to increased leasing activity and the timing of revenue recognition under the straight-line method of accounting.
Tenant reimbursements from the Total Portfolio increased by $1.5 million during the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014 primarily attributable to a $1.8 million increase at the Same Store Portfolio, which trended along with the increase in operating expenses over the same period. Expense recoveries at the Same Store Portfolio increased modestly with a reimbursement percentage of 35.9% during the third quarter of 2015 compared to 33.6% in the third quarter of 2014. In addition, $0.9 million related to the Recently Completed/Acquired Properties. These increases were offset by a decrease of $1.2 million due to 21 properties sold subsequent to the third quarter of 2014.
Other income increased $0.6 million during the third quarter of 2015 when compared to the third quarter of 2014, which is primarily attributable to; (i) $0.2 from the receipt of escheat funds, (ii) $0.2 in tax settlements and (iii) $0.2 million related to other income across our portfolio.
Above/below Market Rent Amortization
Above/below market rent amortization increased by $1.3 million as a result of acquiring 7 properties subsequent to the third quarter of 2014.
Real Estate Taxes
Real estate taxes across our Total Portfolio increased by $0.3 million for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014, primarily attributable to a $0.9 million increase from Recently Completed/Acquired Properties. This increase was offset by a $0.8 million decrease from the 21 properties sold subsequent to the third quarter of 2014.
Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expenses across our Total Portfolio increased $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014, primarily attributable to the following: (i) $1.7 million in payroll and office expenses, (ii) $1.0 million increase in utilities, (iii) $0.7 million increase in repairs and maintenance expense due to the timing of tenant needs, (iv) $0.3 million related to properties acquired subsequent to the third quarter of 2014 and (v) $0.3 million increase in management fees. These increases were offset by a $2.8 million decrease from the 21 properties sold subsequent to the second quarter of 2014.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense across our Total Portfolio increased by $5.7 million for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014, primarily attributable to the following: (i) $8.2 million increase from Recently Completed/Acquired Properties and (ii) $0.6 million increase to the Same Store Property Portfolio in additional depreciation expense from increased tenant improvements and accelerations related to early lease terminations. These increases were offset by $2.8 million decrease from the 21 properties sold subsequent to the second quarter of 2014 and $0.3 million decrease to Development/Redevelopment Properties related to accelerated depreciation of the re-entitlement property in the third quarter of 2014.

Interest Income
Interest income decreased $0.4 million for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014, due to lower average cash and cash equivalents.
Interest Expense
The decrease in interest expense of $3.6 million for the third quarter of 2015 from the third quarter of 2014 is primarily due to the following decreases:

• | $1.5 million related to an increase in capitalized interest which is directly attributable to increased development activity compared to the third quarter of 2014;

• | $0.6 million due to the repayment of our $150.0 million three-year term loan due February 2015 during the third quarter of 2014;

• | $0.3 million due to the repayment of our $100.0 million four-year term loan due February 2016 during the third quarter of 2014;

• | $0.3 million due to the termination of interest rate swap contracts associated with our $100.0 million four-year term loan due February 2016;

• | $2.9 million due to repurchases of $75.1 million and $143.5 million, in the third and fourth quarters of 2014, respectively, of our 5.400% Guaranteed Notes due 2014; and

• | $3.0 million due to repurchases of $42.7 million and $114.9 million, in the third and fourth quarters, respectively, of our 7.500% Guaranteed Notes due 2015.

These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $4.6 million related to the September 2014 issuance of $250.0 million in principal amount of 4.10% Guaranteed Notes due 2024 and $250.0 million in principal amount of 4.55% Guaranteed Notes due 2029.
Recognized Hedge Activity
The $0.8 million of recognized hedge activity during the third quarter of 2014 relates to terminating interest rate swap contracts upon repayment of the $150 million three-year term loan due February 2015.
Equity in Loss of Real Estate Ventures
The decrease in equity in income of Real Estate Ventures of $0.6 million during the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014 is primarily attributable to net operating losses of $0.8 million at the Austin Venture, offset by $0.2 million in increases related to the acquisition of Broadmoor Austin Associates.
Net Gain on Disposition of Real Estate
The $6.1 million net gain on disposition of real estate resulted from the sale of six office properties located in Mt. Laurel, New Jersey, Wayne, Pennsylvania and King of Prussia, Pennsylvania during the third quarter of 2015. See Item 2., "Recent Property Transactions for further information. The $4.7 million net gain on disposition of real estate resulted from the sale of an office property during the third quarter of 2014.
Net Gain on Sale of Undepreciated Real Estate
The $3.0 million net gain on sale of undepreciated real estate recognized during the third quarter of 2015 resulted from the sale of three land parcels located in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, Oakland, California and Austin, Texas. There were no land sales during the third quarter of 2014.
Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt
During the third quarter of 2014, we funded; (i) $88.7 million repurchase of our 5.400% Guaranteed Notes due 2014, (ii) $46.5 million repurchase of our 7.500% Guaranteed Notes due 2015, (iii) repayment of the entire $150.0 million three-year loan due February 2015 and (iv) repayment of the entire $100.0 million four-year loan due February 2016, which resulted in a net loss on early extinguishment of debt of $2.6 million.
Provision for Impairment on Assets Held for Sale/Sold
As of September 30, 2014, the carrying value of the Valleybrooke office portfolio exceeded the fair value less the costs of sale and, as a result, we recognized an impairment loss totaling approximately $1.8 million during the third quarter of 2014.
51

Net Income
Net income increased by $11.4 million during the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014 as a result of the factors described above. Net income is significantly impacted by depreciation of operating properties and amortization of acquired intangibles. These non-cash charges do not directly affect our ability to pay dividends. Amortization of acquired intangibles will continue over the related lease terms or estimated duration of the tenant relationships.
Comparison of the Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014
The table below shows selected operating information for the “Same Store Property Portfolio” and the “Total Portfolio.” The Same Store Property Portfolio consists of 171 properties containing an aggregate of approximately 21.4 million net rentable square feet, and represents properties that we owned for the entire nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. The Same Store Property Portfolio includes properties acquired or placed in service on or prior to January 1, 2014 and owned and held for sale through September 30, 2015. The Total Portfolio includes the effects of other properties that were either placed into service, acquired or redeveloped after January 1, 2014, disposed prior to September 30, 2015 or classified as held for sale as of September 30, 2015. A property is excluded from our Same Store Property Portfolio and moved into the redevelopment column in the period that we determine that a redevelopment would be the best use of the asset, and when said asset is taken out of service or is undergoing re-entitlement for a future development strategy. This table also includes a reconciliation from the Same Store Property Portfolio to the Total Portfolio net income (i.e., all properties owned by us during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014) by providing information for the properties which were acquired, placed into service, under development or redevelopment and administrative/elimination information for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands).
The Total Portfolio net income presented in the table is equal to the net income of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership.

Total Revenue
Cash rents from the Total Portfolio decreased by $6.2 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, primarily attributable to a:

• | $17.9 million decrease due to the 22 properties sold subsequent to January 1, 2014;

• | $7.2 million increase in the Same Store Property Portfolio due to a 2.9% increase in occupancy for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014;

• | $3.7 million increase from Recently Completed/Acquired Properties for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014; and

• | $0.8 million increase from Development/Redevelopment Properties for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014.

Straight-line rents increased by $6.2 million on a consolidated basis due to increased leasing activity and the timing of revenue recognition under the straight-line method of accounting.
Tenant reimbursements from the Total Portfolio decreased by $0.1 million, of which $4.5 million of the decrease is due to the 22 properties sold subsequent to January 1, 2014. This decrease was offset by an increase of $3.1 million at the Same Store Portfolio, which trended along with the increase in operating expenses over the same period. Expense recoveries at the Same Store Portfolio remained consistent with a reimbursement percentage of 35.8% during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to 34.7% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014. An additional $1.3 million increase resulted from Recently Completed/Acquired Properties.
Termination fees at our Total Portfolio decreased by $4.4 million due to timing and volume of tenant early terminations during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014.
Other income increased $3.2 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, which is primarily attributable to; (i) $1.1 million of recognized real estate tax assessment adjustments, (ii) $0.8 million related to other income across our portfolio, (iii) $0.6 million in liquidating distributions from an unconsolidated partnership was accounted for using the cost method for investments, (iv) $0.5 million from the receipt of escheat funds and (v) $0.2 million in tax settlements.
Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expenses across our Total Portfolio increased $0.6 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, primarily attributable to a: (i) $2.6 million increase in repairs and maintenance expense due to the timing of tenant needs, (ii) $2.5 million increase in payroll related costs, (iii) $0.8 million increase in office expenses (iv) $0.6 million in management fees and (v) $1.2 million increase in utilities. These increases were offset by a $7.1 million decrease from the 22 properties sold subsequent to January 1, 2014.
Real Estate Taxes
Real estate taxes across our Total Portfolio decreased by $1.5 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, primarily attributable to a $2.3 million decrease from the 22 properties sold subsequent to the second quarter of 2014 and $0.2 million decrease from property tax assessments. These decreases were offset by $1.0 million from Recently Completed/Acquired Properties.
54

General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses across our Total Portfolio increased $1.5 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, primarily attributable to; (i) $0.9 million increase in share-based compensation costs, (ii) $0.3 million increase in acquisition deal costs and (iii) $0.3 increase in charitable contributions.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense across our Total Portfolio increased by $2.6 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, primarily attributable to a $9.2 million increase from Recently Completed/Acquired Properties and $2.1 million increase to the Same Store Property Portfolio in additional depreciation expense from increased tenant improvements and accelerations related to early lease terminations. These increases were offset by a $7.7 million decrease from the 22 properties sold subsequent to January 1, 2014 and $1.0 million decrease to Development/Redevelopment Properties related to accelerated depreciation of the re-entitlement property in the second quarter of 2014.
Interest Expense
The decrease in interest expense of $10.9 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 is primarily due to the following decreases;

• | $9.1 million due to repurchases of $42.7 million and $114.9 million, in the third and fourth quarters, respectively, of our 7.500% Guaranteed Notes due 2015;

• | $8.9 million due to repurchases of $75.1 million and $143.5 million, in the third and fourth quarters of 2014, respectively, of our 5.400% Guaranteed Notes due 2014;

• | $4.3 million related to an increase in capitalized interest which is directly attributable to increased development activity compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014;

• | $1.9 million due to the repayment of our $150.0 million three-year term loan due February 2015 during the third quarter of 2014;

• | $1.3 million due to the repayment of our $100.0 million four-year term loan due February 2016 during the third quarter of 2014;

• | $0.8 million due to the termination of interest rate swap contracts associated with our $100.0 million four-year term loan due February 2016; and

• | $0.4 million related to mortgage interest expense.

These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $15.8 million related to the September 2014 issuance of $250.0 million in principal amount of 4.10% Guaranteed Notes due 2024 and $250.0 million in principal amount of 4.55% Guaranteed Notes due 2029.
Recognized Hedge Activity
The $0.8 million of recognized hedge activity during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 relates to terminating interest rate swap contracts upon repayment of the $150 million three-year term loan due February 2015.
Equity in Loss of Real Estate Ventures
The decrease in equity in income of Real Estate Ventures of $1.1 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 is primarily attributable to net operating losses of $1.0 million at the Austin Venture and $0.7 million at the evo at Cira Centre South. These decreases were offset by $0.6 million in increases related to the sale of the DRA - PA Venture.

Net Gain on Disposition of Real Estate
The $16.7 million net gain on disposition of real estate venture resulted from the sale of 15 office properties located in Mt. Laurel, New Jersey, Wayne, Pennsylvania, King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, Richmond, Virginia, Newark/Wilmington, Delaware, Oakland, California and Cherry Hill, New Jersey during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015. See Item 2., "Recent Property Transactions for further information. The $4.7 million net gain on disposition of real estate resulted from the sale of an office property during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014.
Gain on Sale of Undepreciated Real Estate
The $3.0 million net gain on sale of undepreciated real estate during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 resulted from the sale of three land parcels located in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, Oakland, California and Austin, Texas. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 we sold two land parcels located in Dallas, Texas and Austin, Texas for a $1.2 million net gain.
Gain from Remeasurement of Investment in a Real Estate Venture
The gain on remeasurement of investment in a real estate venture increased $0.3 million. The $0.8 million gain recognized during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 resulted from the acquisition of the remaining interest in Broadmoor Austin Associates. The $0.5 million gain recognized during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 resulted from the final settlement of the increase in ownership interest of the One and Two Commerce partnerships.
Provision for Impairment on Assets Held for Sale/Sold
During the quarter ended March 31, 2015, we determined to dispose of the Lake Merritt office property, and as the carrying value exceeded the fair value of the property exceeded the fair value less the costs of sale, we recognized an impairment loss totaling approximately $1.7 million, which approximates the cost of sale.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, we determined to dispose of the 100 Gateway Centre Parkway office property, and as the carrying value exceeded the fair value less the costs of sale, we recognized an impairment loss totaling approximately $0.8 million, which approximates the loss on sale.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, we determined to dispose of the Valleybrooke office portfolio, and as the carrying value exceeded the fair value less the costs of sale, we recognized an impairment loss totaling approximately $1.8 million, which approximates the loss on sale.
See Note 3, "Real Estate Investments," for further information related to the impairments.
Discontinued Operations
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 there were no property sales classified as discontinued operations. The gain of $0.9 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 relates to the settlement of the sale of a portfolio of eight office properties located in Lawrenceville, New Jersey during the first quarter of 2013. There were no properties classified as discontinued operations during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015.
Net Income
Net income increased by $23.1 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 as a result of the factors described above. Net income is significantly impacted by depreciation of operating properties and amortization of acquired intangibles. These non-cash charges do not directly affect our ability to pay dividends. Amortization of acquired intangibles will continue over the related lease terms or estimated duration of the tenant relationships.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
General
Our principal liquidity needs for the next twelve months are as follows:

• | fund normal recurring expenses,

• | fund capital expenditures, including capital and tenant improvements and leasing costs,

• | fund repayment of certain debt instruments when they mature,

• | fund current development and redevelopment costs,

• | fund commitments to unconsolidated real estate ventures,

• | fund distributions to shareholders to maintain REIT status, and

• | fund share repurchases.

As of September 30, 2015, the Parent Company owned a 99.1% interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining interest of approximately 0.9% pertains to common limited partnership interests owned by non-affiliated investors who contributed property to the Operating Partnership in exchange for their interests. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company has full and complete responsibility for the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day operations and management. The Parent Company’s source of funding for its dividend payments and other obligations is the distributions it receives from the Operating Partnership.
We believe that our liquidity needs will be satisfied through available cash balances and cash flows generated by operations, financing activities and selective property sales. Rental revenue, expense recoveries from tenants, and other income from operations are our principal sources of cash to pay operating expenses, debt service, recurring capital expenditures and the minimum distributions required to maintain our REIT qualification. We seek to increase cash flows from our properties by maintaining quality standards for our properties that promote high occupancy rates and permit increases in rental rates while reducing tenant turnover and controlling operating expenses. Our revenue also includes third-party fees generated by our property management, leasing, and development and construction businesses. We believe that our revenue, together with proceeds from property sales and debt financings, will continue to provide funds for our short-term liquidity needs. However, material changes in our operating or financing activities may adversely affect our net cash flows. With uncertain economic conditions, vacancy rates may increase, effective rental rates on new and renewed leases may decrease and tenant installation costs, including concessions, may increase in most or all of our markets throughout 2015 and possibly beyond. As a result, our revenues and cash flows could be insufficient to cover operating expenses, including increased tenant installation costs, pay debt service or make distributions to shareholders over the short-term. If this situation were to occur, we expect that we would finance cash deficits through borrowings under our unsecured credit facility and other sources of debt and equity financings. In addition, a material adverse change in cash provided by operations could adversely affect our compliance with financial performance covenants under our unsecured credit facility, including our unsecured term loans, and under our unsecured notes. As of September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants and requirement obligations.
We use multiple sources to finance our long-term capital needs. When needed, we use borrowings under our unsecured credit facility for general business purposes, including to meet debt maturities and to fund distributions to shareholders as well as development and acquisition costs and other expenses from time to time as necessary. In light of the continuing volatility in financial markets and economic uncertainties, it is possible, that one or more lenders under our unsecured revolving credit facility could fail to fund a borrowing request. Such an event could adversely affect our ability to access funds from our unsecured credit facility when needed to fund distributions or pay expenses.
Our ability to incur additional debt is dependent upon a number of factors, including our credit ratings, the value of our unencumbered assets, our degree of leverage and borrowing restrictions imposed by our lenders. If one or more rating agencies were to downgrade our unsecured credit rating, our access to the unsecured debt market would be more limited and the interest rate under our unsecured credit facility and unsecured term loans would increase.
The Parent Company unconditionally guarantees the Operating Partnership’s secured and unsecured obligations, which, as of September 30, 2015, amounted to $645.1 million and $1,803.5 million, respectively.
We maintain a shelf registration statement that has registered the offering and sale of common shares, preferred shares, depositary shares, warrants and unsecured debt securities. Subject to our ongoing compliance with securities laws, and if warranted by market conditions, we may offer and sell equity and debt securities from time to time under the shelf registration statement. We also
57

maintain a continuous offering program under which we may sell up to 16,000,000 common shares until November 5, 2016 in at-the-market offerings.
The Parent Company, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, also issues equity from time to time, the proceeds of which it contributes to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional interests in the Operating Partnership, and guarantees debt obligations of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company’s ability to sell common shares and preferred shares is dependent on, among other things, general market conditions for REITs, market perceptions about the Company as a whole and the current trading price of the Parent Company's shares.
The Parent Company maintains a share repurchase program under which the Board of Trustees has authorized the Parent Company to repurchase shares of its preferred and common stock with no expiration date. On July 22, 2015, the Parent Company's Board of Trustees authorized additional share repurchases of up to $100.0 million. Prior to the authorization 539,200 common shares were available for repurchase under the preexisting share repurchase program. We expect to fund the share repurchases with a combination of available cash balances and availability under our line of credit. As of September 30, 2015, 4,701,302 common shares have been repurchased and retired at an average purchase price of $12.92 per share and totaling $60.8 million. The timing and amounts of any purchases will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, regulatory requirements, share prices, capital availability and other factors as determined by our management team. The repurchase program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice.
We also consider sales of selected properties as another source of managing our liquidity. We use proceeds from asset sales, as appropriate, to repay existing indebtedness, provide capital for our development activities and to strengthen our financial condition. See Item 2. "Recent Property Transactions" for disclosure of current year dispositions.
Cash Flows
The following discussion of our cash flows is based on the consolidated statement of cash flows and is not meant to be a comprehensive discussion of the changes in our cash flows for the periods presented.
As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we maintained cash and cash equivalents of $50.6 million and $257.5 million, respectively. The following are the changes in cash flow from our activities for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands):

Activity |  | 2015 |  | 2014
Operating |  | $ | 144,960 |  |  | $ | 133,000 |
Investing |  | (191,391 | ) |  | (94,748 | )
Financing |  | (160,439 | ) |  | 370,484 |
Net cash flows |  | $ | (206,870 | ) |  | $ | 408,736 |

Our principal source of cash flows is from the operation of our properties. Our properties provide a relatively consistent stream of cash flows that provides us with the resources to fund operating expenses, debt service and quarterly dividends. We do not restate our cash flows for discontinued operations.
The net increase of $12.0 million in cash from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014 is primarily attributable to the timing of cash receipts and cash expenditures in the normal course of operations.
The net increase of $96.6 million in cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014 is primarily attributable to the following:

• | an decrease of $191.7 million in funds used for acquisitions, driven by the purchases of the remaining 50% common interest in the Broadmoor Austin Associates real estate venture, 405 Colorado Drive, 25 M Street, 618 Market Street, 2100 Market Street and 9 Presidential Boulevard (See Item 2., "Recent Property Transactions" above for disclosure of current year acquisitions) during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the purchase of a development project in Austin, Texas known as Encino Trace during the nine months ended September 30, 2014;

58

• | an increase of $74.7 million in capital expenditures for tenant improvements, developments/redevelopments and leasing commissions during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily attributed to the development of the FMC Tower at Cira Centre South and Encino Trace (For further information on development projects see Item 1., "Developments," included in the our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 and Item 2., "Development Risk," above;

• | an increase of $46.5 million of investments in unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures primarily due to contributions for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 of $28.4 million to form the JBG real estate ventures (See Item 2. "Recent Property Transactions" above for further disclosure), $8.8 million in contributions to the 4040 Wilson real estate venture, $16.2 million to Brandywine 1919 Ventures, $3.4 million to the DRA Austin real estate venture and $6.0 million in contributions to other real estate ventures compared to $7.6 million in contributions to the 4040 Wilson real estate venture, $6.4 million to the DRA Austin real estate venture and $2.3 million in contributions to other real estate ventures during the nine months ended September 30, 2014; and

• | an increase of $0.5 million in deposits for real estate during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The decrease in cash used in investing activities was offset by the following transactions:

• | an increase of $133.4 million of net proceeds from the sale of 15 properties and three land parcels during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the sale of one office building, the contribution of an office building to an unconsolidated real estate venture and the sale of two land parcels during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 (See Item 2., "Recent Property Transactions") above;

• | an increase of $82.9 million in payments on the mortgage note receivable during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014, primarily due to the repayment of the short term loan to the Austin Venture (See Note 4, "Investment in Unconsolidated Ventures," to our consolidated financial statements);

• | a decrease in advances made for purchase of tenant assets, net of repayments, of $0.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

• | a decrease of $0.1 million in escrow cash due to timing of payments; and

• | an increase of $0.1 million in cash distributions in excess of cumulative equity in income from Real Estate Ventures during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The net increase of $530.9 million in cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014 is primarily attributable to the following:

• | a decrease of $496.5 million in net proceeds from the issuance of $250.0 million 4.100% Guaranteed Notes due 2024 and $250.0 million 4.550% Guaranteed Notes due 2029 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, with no such activity in the current year;

• | a decrease of $335.0 million in net proceeds from to the issuance of 21,850,000 common shares during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, with no such activity in the current year;

• | an increase of $0.6 million in repayments of mortgage notes payable during nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014;

• | a decrease of $0.6 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options;

• | an increase of $60.8 million in repurchases of common stock, with no such repurchases in the prior year, and;

• | an increase in distributions paid to shareholders and on non-controlling interests to $86.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 from $76.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 resulting from the Parent Company issuance of 21,850,000 common shares during the third quarter of 2014.

The increase in cash used in financing activities was offset by the following transactions:

• | a decrease in the repayment of unsecured term loans from the repayment of the $150.0 million three-year term loan, $100.0 million four-year term loan and settlement of associated interest rate swap contracts during the third quarter of 2014, with no such repayments during the current year;

• | a decrease in repayments of unsecured notes of $120.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, primarily relating to redemption of a portion of the 5.40% Guaranteed Notes due November 1, 2014 and the 7.50% Guaranteed Notes due May 15, 2015 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, with no such activity in the current year;

• | a decrease of $0.4 million in debt financing costs, primarily due to the new revolving credit facility (See Item 2. "Capitalization") below; and

• | an increase of $1.0 million from a partner contribution to a consolidated joint venture, with no such contribution in the prior year.

(a) | On August 19, 2015, we entered into a forbearance agreement to extend the maturity date of the mortgage note payable collateralized by two of our properties located at 8260 Greensboro Drive and 1676 International Drive in Mclean, Virginia (referred to as "Tysons Corner" in Note 7 "Debt Obligations" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014) until October 9, 2015. At September 30, 2015, the outstanding balance was $88.0 million. See Note 14, "Subsequent Events," for further information regarding the repayment of the note.

The indenture under which the Operating Partnership issued its unsecured notes contains financial covenants, including (i) a leverage ratio not to exceed 60%, (ii) a secured debt leverage ratio not to exceed 40%, (iii) a debt service coverage ratio of greater than 1.5 to 1.0 and (iv) an unencumbered asset value of not less than 150% of unsecured debt. The Operating Partnership is in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2015.
The Operating Partnership has mortgage loans that are collateralized by certain of its properties. Payments on mortgage loans are generally due in monthly installments of principal and interest, or interest only. The Operating Partnership intends to refinance or repay its mortgage loans as they mature through the use of proceeds from selective property sales and secured or unsecured borrowings. However, in the current and expected future economic environment one or more of these sources may not be available on attractive terms or at all.
On October 8, 2015, we amended our $200.0 million seven-year term loan maturing February 1, 2019. Pursuant to the terms of the amendment, we increased the term loan by an additional $50.0 million, lengthened the maturity date to October 8, 2022, and exercised the option to increase the aggregate amount by up to $150.0 million. The loan will bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.80%. Through a series of interest rate swaps, the $250.0 million outstanding balance of the term loan will have a fixed interest rate of 3.72%.
On May 15, 2015, we closed on a new four-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the "New Credit Facility") that provides for borrowings of up to $600.0 million. We expect to use advances under the New Credit Facility for general business purposes, including to fund costs of acquisitions, developments and redevelopments of properties and to repay from time to time other debt. On terms and conditions specified in the credit agreement, we may enter into unsecured term loans and/or increase the initial amount of the credit facility by up to, in the aggregate for all such term loans and increases, an additional $400.0 million. The New Credit Facility includes a $65.0 million sub-limit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $60.0 million sub-limit for swing-loans. The New Credit Facility has a scheduled maturity date of May 15, 2019, and is subject to two six-month extensions on terms and conditions specified in the credit agreement.
At our option, loans outstanding under the New Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (1) LIBOR plus between 0.875% and 1.55% based on our credit rating or (2) a base rate equal to the greatest of (a) the Administrative Agent's prime rate, (b) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% or (c) LIBOR for a one month period plus 1.00%, in each case, plus a margin ranging from 0.0% to 0.55% based on our credit rating. The New Credit Facility also contains a competitive bid option that allows banks that are part of the lender consortium to bid to make loan advances to us at a reduced interest rate. In addition, we are also obligated to pay (1) in quarterly installments a facility fee on the total commitment at a rate per annum ranging from 0.125% to 0.30% based on our credit rating and (2) an annual fee on the undrawn amount of each letter or credit equal to the LIBOR Margin. Based on our current credit rating, the LIBOR margin is 1.20% and the facility fee is 0.25%. We had no borrowings under the New Credit Facility as of September 30, 2015.
The terms of the New Credit Facility require that we maintain customary financial and other covenants, including: (i) a fixed charge coverage ratio greater than or equal to 1.5 to 1.00; (ii) a minimum net worth; (iii) a leverage ratio less than or equal to 0.60 to 1.00, subject to specified exceptions; (iv) a ratio of unsecured indebtedness to unencumbered asset value less than or equal to 0.60 to 1.00, subject to specified exceptions; (v) a ratio of secured indebtedness to total asset value less than or equal to 0.40 to 1.00; and (vi) a ratio of unencumbered cash flow to interest expense on unsecured debt greater than 1.75 to 1.00. In addition, the New Credit Facility restricts payments of dividends and distributions on shares in excess of 95% of our funds from operations (FFO) except to the extent necessary to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes. At September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all covenants in the New Credit Facility.
Concurrently with our entry into the New Credit Facility, we terminated our then existing unsecured revolving credit facility, which had a scheduled maturity date of February 1, 2016.
On June 1, 2015, we amended our Term Loan C Agreement dated December 15, 2011 to align the above aforementioned financial and operating covenants and restrictions of the New Credit Facility with that of Term Loan C. The amendment was filed as part of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2015. See Item 6.,"Exhibits."
The charter documents of the Parent Company and Operating Partnership do not limit the amount or form of indebtedness that the Operating Partnership may incur, and its policies on debt incurrence are solely within the discretion of the Parent Company’s Board of Trustees, subject to the financial covenants in the Credit Facility, indenture and other credit agreements.

Equity
On September 15, 2015, the Parent Company declared a distribution of $0.15 per common share, totaling $26.6 million, payable on October 19, 2015 to its shareholders of record as of October 5, 2015. In addition, the Parent Company declared a distribution on its Series E Preferred Shares to holders of record as of September 30, 2015. These shares are entitled to a preferential return of 6.90% per annum on the $25.00 per share liquidation preference. Distributions paid on October 15, 2015 to holders of Series E Preferred Shares totaled $1.7 million. To fund this distribution, on September 15, 2015, the Operating Partnership declared distributions on its Series E-Linked Preferred Mirror Units to holders of record as of September 30, 2015. These units are entitled to a preferential return of 6.90% per annum on the $25.00 per unit liquidation preference. Distributions to be paid on October 15, 2015 to holders of Series E-Linked Preferred Mirror Units will total $1.7 million. In order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Parent Company is required to, among other things, pay dividends to its shareholders of at least 90% of its REIT taxable income.
The Parent Company also maintains a continuous offering program (the "Offering Program"), under which we may sell up to an aggregate amount of 16,000,000 common shares until November 5, 2016 in at the market offerings. This program was put in place on November 5, 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we did not sell any shares under the Offering Program and 16,000,000 remained available.
The Parent Company maintains a share repurchase program under which the Board of Trustees has authorized the Parent Company to repurchase up to $100.0 million of its common shares with no expiration date. Prior to the authorization 539,200 common shares were available for repurchase under our share repurchase program. We expect to fund the share repurchases with a combination of available cash balances and availability under its line of credit. As of September 30, 2015, 4,701,302 common shares have been repurchased and retired at an average purchase price of $12.92 per share for total cash consideration of $60.8 million. The timing and amounts of any purchases will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, regulatory requirements, share prices, capital availability and other factors as determined by our management team. The repurchase program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice.
Inflation
A majority of our leases provide for tenant reimbursement of real estate taxes and operating expenses either on a triple net basis or over a base amount. In addition, many of our office leases provide for fixed base rent increases. We believe that inflationary increases in expenses will be partially offset by expense reimbursement and contractual rent increases.

(a) | Amounts do not include unamortized discounts and/or premiums.

(b) | On October 8, 2015, the Company amended its $200.0 million seven-year term loan maturing February 1, 2019. Pursuant to the terms of the amendment, the Company increased the term loan by an additional $50.0 million and lengthened the maturity date to October 8, 2022.

(c) | Future minimum rental payments under the terms of all non-cancelable ground leases under which we are the lessee are expensed on a straight-line basis regardless of when payments are due. The table does not include the future minimum rental payments related to two ground leases in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as these leases provide for contingent participation by the lessor and are not estimable at September 30, 2015. The two ground leases in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania are discussed in Note 12, "Commitments and Contingencies," to our consolidated financial statements.

(d) | Represents contractual obligations for development projects and does not contemplate all costs expected to be incurred for such developments. See Item 2., "Overview - Development Risk" above for total expected costs related to developments.

See Note 4, "Investment in Unconsolidated Ventures," to our consolidated financial statements for further details on payment guarantees provided on the behalf of real estate ventures.
As of September 30, 2015, we were obligated to pay a maximum of $85.0 million for tenant improvements not yet completed, which is not included in the above table. We expect that most of the obligations will be paid within one year.
On May 4, 2015, we entered into a put agreement in the ordinary course of business that grants an independent third party the unilateral option to require us to purchase a property, at a predetermined price, until May 4, 2018. In addition to the $35.0 million purchase price, we would be responsible for transaction and closing costs. There can be no assurance that the counterparty will exercise the option.
Funds from Operations (FFO)
Pursuant to the revised definition of FFO adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), we calculate FFO by adjusting net income/(loss) attributable to common unit holders (computed in accordance with GAAP) for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, impairment losses on depreciable consolidated real estate, impairment losses on investments in unconsolidated joint ventures driven by a measurable decrease in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures, real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after similar adjustments for unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that the use of FFO combined with the required U.S. GAAP presentations, has been beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REITs’ operating results more meaningful. We consider FFO to be a useful
63

measure for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and real estate depreciation and amortization, FFO can help the investing public compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to other companies. Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.
We consider net income, as defined by U.S. GAAP, to be the most comparable earnings measure to FFO. While FFO and FFO per unit are relevant and widely used measures of operating performance of REITs, FFO does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income/(loss) attributable to common unit holders and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.
The following table presents a reconciliation of net income attributable to common unit holders to FFO for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

| Three-month periods ended |  | Nine-month periods ended

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, commodity prices and equity prices. In pursuing our business plan, the primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Changes in the general level of interest rates prevailing in the financial markets may affect the spread between our yield on invested assets and cost of funds and, in turn, our ability to make distributions or payments to our shareholders. While we have not experienced any significant credit losses, in the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and/or continued economic slowdown, defaults could increase and result in losses to us which would adversely affect our operating results and liquidity.
64

Interest Rate Risk and Sensitivity Analysis
The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the market value of our financial instruments to selected changes in market rates. The range of changes chosen reflects our view of changes which are reasonably possible over a one-year period. Market values are the present value of projected future cash flows based on the market rates chosen.
Our financial instruments consist of both fixed and variable rate debt. As of September 30, 2015, our consolidated debt consisted of $645.1 million of mortgage loans and $1,524.9 million of unsecured notes, all of which are fixed rate borrowings. As of September 30, 2015, we also have variable rate debt consisting of $78.6 million in trust preferred securities and $200.0 million of unsecured term loans all of which have been swapped to fixed. All financial instruments were entered into for other than trading purposes and the net market value of these financial instruments is referred to as the net financial position. Changes in interest rates have different impacts on the fixed and variable rate portions of our debt portfolio. A change in interest rates on the fixed portion of the debt portfolio impacts the net financial instrument position, but has no impact on interest incurred or cash flows. A change in interest rates on the variable portion of the debt portfolio impacts the interest incurred and cash flows, but does not impact the net financial instrument position.
If market rates of interest increase by 100 basis points, the fair value of our outstanding fixed-rate mortgage debt would decrease by approximately $23.3 million. If market rates of interest decrease by 100 basis points, the fair value of our outstanding fixed-rate mortgage debt would increase by approximately $25.4 million.
As of September 30, 2015, based on prevailing interest rates and credit spreads, the fair value, net of $6.0 million of discounts, of our $1,518.9 million of unsecured notes was $1,552.7 million. For sensitivity purposes, a 100 basis point change in the discount rate equates to a change in the total fair value of our debt of approximately $15.2 million at September 30, 2015.
From time to time or as the need arises, we use derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk exposures and not for speculative purposes. The total carrying value of our variable rate debt (including variable swapped to fixed) was approximately $278.6 million at September 30, 2015. The total fair value of our debt was approximately $254.4 million at September 30, 2015. For sensitivity purposes, if market rates of interest increase by 100 basis points the fair value of our variable rate debt would decrease by approximately $14.5 million at September 30, 2015. If market rates of interest decrease by 100 basis points the fair value of our outstanding variable rate debt would increase by approximately $16.4 million.
These amounts were determined solely by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. Due to the uncertainty of specific actions we may undertake to minimize possible effects of market interest rate increases, this analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.
