        With the exception of the Cherry Hill, New Jersey and the Royersford, Pennsylvania properties, all of the properties purchased by the Company in 2011 and 2010 are currently 100% occupied and are each leased by a single tenant pursuant to a long term net lease. The Cherry Hill, New Jersey retail property is being redeveloped and is currently 61% leased by one major tenant pursuant to a long term net lease, with a contractual rent commencement date of April 1, 2012. The Royersford, Pennsylvania community shopping center is currently leased to nine separate tenants and a significant portion of the rental income from this property is derived from ground leases.

        As a result of the 2011 and 2010 purchases, the Company recorded intangible lease assets of $2,387,000 and $5,500,000, respectively, and intangible lease liabilities of $614,000 and $1,040,000, respectively, representing the value of the acquired leases and origination costs. As of December 31, 2011, the weighted average amortization period for the 2011 and 2010 acquisitions is 10.3 and 12.1 years for the intangible lease assets and 24.0 and 24.1 years for the intangible lease liabilities, respectively. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, accumulated amortization of intangible lease assets was $4,081,000 and $3,046,000, respectively and accumulated amortization of intangible lease liabilities was $2,053,000 and $1,622,000, respectively. The mortgages assumed by the Company in 2010 were determined to be at market.

        The Company recognized a net (decrease) increase in rental revenue of $(37,000), $442,000 and ($23,000) for the amortization of the above/below market leases for 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. For 2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized amortization expense of $844,000, $620,000, and $534,000, respectively, relating to the amortization of the origination costs. The results for 2011 and 2010 include an increase in rental revenue of $7,000 and $462,000, respectively, and additional amortization expense of $5,000 and $115,000, respectively, resulting from the accelerated expiration of certain leases

        The unamortized balance of intangible lease assets as a result of acquired above market leases at December 31, 2011 will be deducted from rental income through 2027 as follows (amounts in thousands):

Pro Forma Financial Information (unaudited)

        During the period January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2010, the Company acquired 14 properties for a total purchase price of approximately $72,300,000, sold five properties and conveyed to the mortgagee by deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure five properties (as discussed in Note 4). The following table summarizes, on an unaudited pro forma basis, the combined results of operations of the Company for 2010 and 2009, as if all properties acquired, sold and conveyed to the mortgagee were completed as of January 1, 2009. The total acquisition costs of $1,069,000 (including $59,000 paid in 2009) paid in connection with the 2010 purchases are included below as a reduction of net income in the 2009 period. This unaudited pro forma information does not purport to represent what the actual results of operations of the Company would have been had the acquisitions, sales and conveyed properties occurred as of January 1, 2009, nor does it purport to predict the results of operations for future periods. (Amounts in thousands, except per share data.)

        This pro forma information does not include 2011 acquisitions as such acquisitions were determined not to be material in the aggregate.

Minimum Future Rentals

        The minimum future contractual rentals (without taking into consideration straight-line rent or amortization of intangibles) to be received over the next five years and thereafter on the operating leases in effect at December 31, 2011 are as follows (amounts in thousands):

2012

Thereafter

    205,567  
       

Total

  $ 411,297  
       

        Included in the minimum future rentals are rentals from one property pursuant to a long term ground lease from the fee owner. The Company pays annual fixed leasehold rent of $296,875 through July 2014 with 25% increases every five years through March 3, 2020 and the Company has a right to extend the lease for up to five 5-year and one seven month renewal options.

        Except for one vacant property, the rental properties owned at December 31, 2011 are leased under noncancellable operating leases with current expirations ranging from 2012 to 2038, with certain tenant renewal rights. Substantially all lease agreements are net lease arrangements which require the tenant to pay rent and substantially all the expenses of the leased property including maintenance, taxes, utilities and insurance. For certain properties, the tenants pay the Company, in addition to the base rent, their pro rata share of real estate taxes and operating expenses. Certain lease agreements provide for periodic rental increases and others provide for increases based on the consumer price index.

Unbilled Rent Receivable

        At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded an unbilled rent receivable aggregating $12,567,000 and $11,149,000, respectively, excluding $101,000 classified as assets related to property held for sale at December 31, 2010, representing rent reported on a straight-line basis in excess of rental payments required under the term of the respective leases. This amount is to be billed and received pursuant to the lease terms during the next 19 years.

        During 2011, the Company wrote off $118,000 of unbilled "straight-line" rent receivable, relating to a property sold during 2011. During 2010, the Company wrote off or recorded accelerated amortization of $1,152,000 of unbilled "straight-line" rent receivable, which includes $149,000 relating to a property sold during 2010 and $1,003,000 relating to Robb & Stucky. During 2009, the Company wrote-off or recorded accelerated amortization of $1,545,000 of unbilled "straight-line" rent receivable.

Lease Termination Fee Income

        In June 2009, the Company received a $1,905,000 lease termination fee from a retail tenant that had been paying its rent on a current basis, but had vacated the property in March 2009. Offsetting this amount is the write off of the entire balance of the unbilled rent receivable and the intangible lease asset related to this property, aggregating $121,000. The net amount of $1,784,000 is recorded on the income statement as "Lease termination fee" income in the year ended December 31, 2009. The Company re-leased this property effective November 2009.
