EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2013 of Corporate Office Properties Trust (“COPT”) and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) and Corporate Office Properties, L.P. (“COPLP”) and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Operating Partnership”). Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, “we,” “our,” and “us” refer collectively to COPT, COPLP and their subsidiaries.

COPT is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and the sole general partner of COPLP. As of June 30, 2013 COPT owned 96% of the outstanding common units and 96% of the outstanding preferred units in COPLP. The remaining common and preferred units are owned by certain trustees of COPT and certain non-affiliated investors. As the sole general partner of COPLP, COPT controls COPLP and can cause it to enter into major transactions including acquisitions, dispositions and refinancings and cause changes in its line of business, capital structure and distribution policies.

There are a few differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership which are reflected in the disclosure in this Form 10-Q. We believe it is important to understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Company and the Operating Partnership operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. COPT is a real estate investment trust, whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of COPLP. As a result, COPT does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of COPLP, issuing public equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of COPLP. COPT itself is not directly obligated under any indebtedness but guarantees some of the debt of COPLP. COPLP owns substantially all of the assets of COPT either directly or through its subsidiaries, conducts almost all of the operations of the business and is structured as a limited partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by COPT, which are contributed to COPLP in exchange for partnership units, COPLP generates the capital required by COPT’s business through COPLP’s operations, by COPLP’s direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness or through the issuance of partnership units.

Noncontrolling interests and shareholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of COPT and those of COPLP. The common limited partnership interests in COPLP not owned by COPT are accounted for as partners’ capital in COPLP’s consolidated financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in COPT’s consolidated financial statements. COPLP’s consolidated financial statements also reflect COPT’s noncontrolling interests in certain real estate partnerships, limited liability companies (“LLCs”), business trusts and corporations; the differences between shareholders’ equity, partners’ capital and noncontrolling interests result from the differences in the equity issued at the COPT and COPLP levels and in COPT’s noncontrolling interests in these real estate partnerships, LLCs, business trusts and corporations. The only other significant differences between the consolidated financial statements of COPT and those of COPLP are assets in connection with a non-qualified elective deferred compensation plan

(comprised primarily of mutual funds and equity securities) and the corresponding liability to the plan’s participants that are held directly by COPT.

We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report results in the following benefits:


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


•	combined reports enhance investors’ understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a whole and in the same manner as management;


•	combined reports are more efficient for the Company and the Operating Partnership and result in savings in time, effort and expense; and


•	combined reports are more efficient for investors by reducing duplicative disclosure and providing a single document for their review.

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


•	consolidated financial statements;


•	the following notes to the consolidated financial statements:


•	Note 3, Fair Value Measurements of COPT and subsidiaries and COPLP and subsidiaries; and


•	Note 15, Earnings per Share of COPT and subsidiaries and Earnings per Unit of COPLP and subsidiaries.


•	“Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources of COPT”; and


•	“Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership.”

This report also includes separate sections under Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures and separate Exhibit 31 and Exhibit 32 certifications for each of COPT and COPLP to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity have made the requisite certifications and that COPT and COPLP are compliant with Rule 13a-15 and Rule 15d-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

1. Organization

Corporate Office Properties Trust (“COPT”) and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a fully-integrated and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Corporate Office Properties, L.P. (“COPLP”) and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Operating Partnership”) is the entity through which COPT, the sole general partner in COPLP, conducts almost all of its operations and owns almost all of its assets. Unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, “we”, “us” and “our” as used herein refer to each of the Company and the Operating Partnership. We focus primarily on serving the specialized requirements of United States Government agencies and defense contractors, most of whom are engaged in defense information technology and national security related activities. We generally acquire, develop, manage and lease office and data center properties concentrated in large office parks located near knowledge-based government demand drivers and/or in targeted markets or submarkets in the Greater Washington, DC/Baltimore region. As of June 30, 2013, our investments in real estate included the following:


•	210 operating office properties totaling 19.0 million square feet;


•	12 office properties under construction or redevelopment, or for which we were contractually committed to construct, that we estimate will total approximately 1.7 million square feet upon completion, including two partially operational properties included above;


•	land held or under pre-construction totaling 1,687 acres (including 561 acres controlled but not owned) that we believe are potentially developable into approximately 19.5 million square feet; and


•	a partially operational, wholesale data center which upon completion and stabilization is expected to have a critical load of 18 megawatts.

COPLP owns real estate both directly and through subsidiary partnerships and limited liability companies (“LLCs”). In addition to owning real estate, COPLP also owns subsidiaries that provide real estate services such as property management and construction and development services primarily for our properties but also for third parties.

Interests in COPLP are in the form of common and preferred units. As of June 30, 2013, COPT owned 95.8% of the outstanding COPLP common units (“common units”) and 96.4% of the outstanding COPLP preferred units (“preferred units”); the remaining common and preferred units in COPLP were owned by third parties. Three of COPT’s trustees controlled, either directly or through ownership by other entities or family members, 3.5% of COPLP’s common units as of June 30, 2013. Common units in COPLP not owned by COPT carry certain redemption rights. The number of common units in COPLP owned by COPT is equivalent to the number of outstanding common shares of beneficial interest (“common shares”) of COPT, and the entitlement of all COPLP common units to quarterly distributions and payments in liquidation are substantially the same as those of COPT common shareholders. Similarly, in the case of each series of preferred units in COPLP held by COPT, there is a series of preferred shares of beneficial interest (“preferred shares”) that is equivalent in number and carries substantially the same terms as such series of COPLP preferred units. COPT’s common shares are publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker symbol “OFC”.

Because COPLP is managed by COPT, and COPT conducts substantially all of its operations through COPLP, we refer to COPT’s executive officers as COPLP’s executive officers, and although, as a partnership, COPLP does not have a board of trustees, we refer to COPT’s Board of Trustees as COPLP’s Board of Trustees.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The COPT consolidated financial statements include the accounts of COPT, the Operating Partnership, their subsidiaries and other entities in which COPT has a majority voting interest and control. The COPLP consolidated financial statements include the accounts of COPLP, its subsidiaries and other entities in which COPLP has a majority voting interest and control. We also consolidate certain entities when control of such entities can be achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) if they are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of such entities. We eliminate all significant intercompany balances and transactions in consolidation.

We use the equity method of accounting when we own an interest in an entity and can exert significant influence over the entity’s operations but cannot control the entity’s operations. We discontinue equity method accounting if our investment in an

entity (and net advances) is reduced to zero unless we have guaranteed obligations of the entity or are otherwise committed to provide further financial support for the entity.

We use the cost method of accounting when we own an interest in an entity and cannot exert significant influence over its operations.

These interim financial statements should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 for COPT (included in COPT’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K) and COPLP (included in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 25, 2013). The unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that are necessary, in the opinion of management, to fairly present our financial position and results of operations. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature except for the revisions and reclassifications noted below. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accounting policies described in COPT’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 25, 2013.

Reclassifications

We reclassified certain amounts from prior periods to conform to the current period presentation of our consolidated financial statements with no effect on previously reported net income or equity.

Revisions

As reported in COPT’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the following errors were identified in 2012:

•

the misapplication of accounting guidance related to the recognition of a deferred tax asset resulting from an impairment of assets in the fourth quarter of 2011 that failed to consider a partial reversal of that asset that would result from a cancellation of related inter-company debt in the first quarter of 2012. The effect of this error was an overstatement of our income tax benefit and an understatement of our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2011 of $4.0 million. Based on an evaluation against our projected annual net income at that time, this error was previously reported for COPT as an out-of-period adjustment in the three months ended March 31, 2012;

•

an over-accrual of incentive compensation cost, the effect of which was an overstatement of general and administrative expenses and an overstatement of net loss for the calendar quarter and year ended December 31, 2011 of $711,000. Based on an evaluation against our projected annual net income at that time, this error was previously reported for COPT as an out-of-period adjustment in the three months ended March 31, 2012;

•

the misapplication of accounting guidance requiring that we recognize loss allocations to a noncontrolling interest holder in a consolidated real estate joint venture associated with decreases in such holder’s claim on the book value of the joint venture’s assets, despite the fact that the real estate held by the joint venture was under development and the joint venture had no underlying losses. The effect of this error was an understatement for COPT of losses attributable to noncontrolling interests in other consolidated entities of $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011; and

•

the misapplication of accounting guidance pertaining to our reporting for a noncontrolling interest in a consolidated real estate joint venture formed in March 2010 for which the holder of such interest has the right to require us to acquire the interest at fair value. Accounting guidance requires that this noncontrolling interest be classified outside of permanent equity and reported at fair value as of the end of each reporting period, with changes in such fair value reported as equity transactions with no impact to net income or comprehensive income. This error resulted in an overstatement of equity and offsetting understatement of the line entitled “redeemable noncontrolling interest” in the mezzanine section of COPT’s consolidated balance sheet of $8.9 million as of December 31, 2011. This error had no effect on COPT’s consolidated statements of operations, including reported net income (losses) or earnings per share.

With respect to the errors in the first two bullets above, we assessed the materiality of these errors on COPT’s consolidated financial statements in connection with previously filed periodic reports, in accordance with ASC 250 (SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, “Materiality”), and concluded at such time that the errors were not material to any prior annual or interim periods. In assessing the cumulative effect of all such errors, we have considered ASC 250 (SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements”), and accordingly, the financial statements as of, and for the year ended, December 31, 2011 were revised in COPT’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We revised COPT amounts pertaining to the first quarter of 2012 in COPT’s Form 10-Q filed on April 30, 2013 and amounts pertaining to the second quarter and first six months of 2012 herein. We will revise COPT amounts pertaining to the third quarter and first nine months of 2012 in a future quarterly filing on Form 10-Q.

The following are selected line items from COPT’s consolidated financial statements as of, and for the three and six months ended, June 30, 2012 illustrating the effect of adjustments pertaining to reclassifications and revisions (in thousands):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We adopted guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) effective January 1, 2013 related to the reporting of the effect of significant reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive income. This guidance requires an entity to report, either parenthetically on the face of the financial statements or in a single footnote, changes in the components of accumulated other comprehensive income for the period. An entity is required to separately report the amount of such changes attributable to reclassifications (and the statements of operations line affected by such reclassifications) and the amount of such changes attributable to current period other comprehensive income. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. Our adoption of this guidance did not affect our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

3. Fair Value Measurements

For a description on how we estimate fair value, see Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements in COPT’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Note 3 to the COPLP consolidated financial statements in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 25, 2013.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Our partner in a real estate joint venture has the right to require us to acquire its interest at fair value beginning in March 2020; accordingly, we classify the fair value of our partner’s interest as a redeemable noncontrolling interest in the mezzanine section of our consolidated balance sheet. In determining the fair value of our partner’s interest as of June 30, 2013, we used discount rates ranging from 10.0% to 20.0% (15.7% weighted average), which factored in risk appropriate to the level of future property development expected to be undertaken by the joint venture; a significant increase (decrease) in the discount rate used in determining the fair value would result in a significantly (lower) higher fair value. Given our reliance on the unobservable inputs, the valuations are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, other assets (excluding mortgage loans receivable) and accounts payable and accrued expenses are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of the short maturities of these instruments. We estimated the fair values of our mortgage loans receivable as discussed in Note 6 based on the discounted estimated future cash flows of the loans (categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy); the discount rates used approximate current market rates for loans with similar maturities and credit quality, and the estimated cash payments include scheduled principal and interest payments. For our disclosure of debt fair values in Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements, we estimated the fair value of our unsecured senior notes and exchangeable senior notes based on quoted market rates for publicly-traded debt (categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy) and estimated the fair value of our other debt based on the discounted estimated future cash payments to be made on such debt (categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy); the discount rates used approximate current market rates for loans, or groups of loans, with similar maturities and credit quality, and the estimated future payments include scheduled principal and interest payments. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Settlement at such fair value amounts may not be possible and may not be a prudent management decision.

For additional fair value information, please refer to Note 6 for mortgage loans receivable, Note 7 for debt and Note 8 for interest rate derivatives.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we recognized impairment losses on operating properties in the current and prior period primarily in connection with dispositions completed or expected to occur in connection with the Strategic Reallocation Plan to dispose of properties and land that are no longer aligned with our strategy. The table below sets forth the fair value hierarchy of the valuation technique used by us in determining the fair value of the properties (dollars in thousands):

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we sold 920 Elkridge Landing Road, a 103,000 square foot office property in Linthicum, Maryland (in the Baltimore/Washington Corridor), for $6.9 million.

2013 Construction Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we placed into service an aggregate of 236,000 square feet in three newly constructed office properties located in the Baltimore/Washington Corridor, Northern Virginia and Huntsville, Alabama. As of June 30, 2013, we had 11 office properties under construction, or for which we were contractually committed to construct, that we estimate will total 1.5 million square feet upon completion, including five in Northern Virginia, three in the Baltimore/Washington Corridor and three in Huntsville, Alabama. We also had redevelopment underway on one office property in Greater Philadelphia that we estimate will total 183,000 square feet upon completion.

5. Real Estate Joint Ventures

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we had an investment in one unconsolidated real estate joint venture accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Information pertaining to this investment is set forth below (dollars in thousands):



Investment Balance at (1)						Date		Nature of	Maximum Exposure
June 30, 2013			December 31, 2012			Acquired	Ownership	Activity	to Loss (2)
$	(6,420	)	$	(6,420	)	9/29/2005	20%	Operates 16 Buildings	$	—

(1) The carrying amount of our investment in this joint venture was lower than our share of the equity in the joint venture by $3.5 million at June 30, 2013 and $4.5 million December 31, 2012 due to our deferral of gain on the contribution by us of real estate into the joint venture upon its formation and our discontinuance of loss recognition under the equity method effective October 2012, as discussed below. A difference will continue to exist to the extent the nature of our continuing involvement in the joint venture remains the same and we continue to no longer recognize income or losses under the equity method.

(2) Derived from the sum of our investment balance and maximum additional unilateral capital contributions or loans required from us. Not reported above are additional amounts that we and our partner are required to fund when needed by this joint venture; these funding requirements are proportional to our respective ownership percentages. Also not reported above are additional unilateral contributions or loans from us, the amounts of which are uncertain, that we would be required to make if certain contingent events occur (see Note 16).

The following table sets forth condensed balance sheets for this unconsolidated real estate joint venture (in thousands):



	June 30, 2013			December 31, 2012
Properties, net	$	57,582		$	58,460

Net loss	$	(2,230	)	$	(521	)	$	(4,540	)	$	(1,059	)

As discussed further in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 25, 2013, in 2012, the holder of mortgage debt encumbering all of the joint venture’s properties notified us of the debt’s default, initiated foreclosure proceedings and terminated our property management responsibilities; accordingly, we discontinued recognition of losses on this investment under the equity method effective in October 2012 due to our having neither the obligation nor intent to support the joint venture.

(1)	Several of the fixed rate mortgages carry interest rates that were above or below market rates upon assumption and therefore were recorded at their fair value based on applicable effective interest rates. The carrying values of these loans reflect net unamortized premiums totaling $720,000 at June 30, 2013 and $1.3 million at December 31, 2012.


(2)	The weighted average interest rate on these loans was 5.99% at June 30, 2013.


(3)	The interest rate on the loan outstanding was 2.44% at June 30, 2013.


(4)	The weighted average interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility was 1.92% at June 30, 2013.


(5)	We have the ability to borrow an aggregate of an additional $180.0 million under these term loan facilities, provided that there is no default under the facilities and subject to the approval of the lenders.


(6)	The weighted average interest rate on these loans was 1.93% at June 30, 2013.


(7)	Refer to the paragraph below for disclosure pertaining to these notes.


(8)	These notes carry interest rates that were below market rates upon assumption and therefore were recorded at their fair value based on applicable effective interest rates. The carrying value of these notes reflects an unamortized discount totaling $816,000 at June 30, 2013 and $873,000 at December 31, 2012.

(9)

As described further in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K, these notes have an exchange settlement feature that provides that the notes may, under certain circumstances, be exchangeable for cash and, at COPLP’s discretion, COPT common shares at an exchange rate (subject to adjustment) of 20.8513 shares per one thousand dollar principal amount of the notes (exchange rate is as of June 30, 2013 and is equivalent to an exchange price of $47.96 per common share). During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we repaid $239.4 million principal amount of these notes and recognized a $25.9 million loss on early extinguishment of debt. The carrying value of these notes included a principal amount of $575,000 and an unamortized discount totaling $17,000 at June 30, 2013 and a principal amount of $240.0 million and an unamortized discount totaling $9.1 million at December 31, 2012. The effective interest rate under the notes, including amortization of the issuance costs, was 6.05%. Because the closing price of our common shares at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was less than the exchange price per common share applicable to these notes, the if-converted value of the notes did not exceed the principal amount. The table below sets forth interest expense recognized on these notes before deductions for amounts capitalized (in thousands):



	For the Three Months Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013		2012		2013		2012
Interest expense at stated interest rate	$	1,891	$	2,550	$	4,195	$	5,100
Interest expense associated with amortization of discount	747		906		1,611		1,798
Total	$	2,638	$	3,456	$	5,806	$	6,898

All debt is owed by the Operating Partnership. While COPT is not directly obligated by any debt, it has guaranteed our Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan Facilities, Unsecured Senior Notes and 4.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes.

On May 6, 2013, we issued a $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.600% Senior Notes at an initial offering price of 99.816% of their face value. The proceeds from the offering, after deducting discounts of the initial purchasers of the notes, but before other offering expenses, were approximately $347.1 million. The notes mature on May 15, 2023. We may redeem the notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at our option, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (1) the aggregate principal amount of the notes being redeemed and (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption) discounted to its present value, on a semi-annual basis at an adjusted treasury rate plus 30 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption. The notes are unconditionally guaranteed by COPT. The carrying value of these notes reflects an unamortized discount totaling $2.9 million at June 30, 2013. The effective interest rate under the notes, including amortization of the issuance costs, was 3.70%.

We capitalized interest costs of $2.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2013, $3.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2012, $4.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 and $7.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012.

The table below presents the effect of our interest rate derivatives on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (in thousands):



	For the Three Months Ended June 30,					For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013		2012			2013		2012
Amount of gain (loss) recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) (effective portion)	$	7,830	$	(2,639	)	$	8,292	$	(4,626	)
Amount of loss reclassified from AOCI into interest expense (effective portion)	674		928			1,332		2,402

Over the next 12 months, we estimate that approximately $2.4 million will be reclassified from AOCI as an increase to interest expense.

We have agreements with each of our interest rate derivative counterparties that contain provisions under which, if we default or are capable of being declared in default on any of our indebtedness, we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations. These agreements also incorporate the loan covenant provisions of our indebtedness with a lender affiliate of the derivative counterparties. Failure to comply with the loan covenant provisions could result in our being declared in default on any derivative instrument obligations covered by the agreements. As of June 30, 2013, the fair value of interest rate derivatives in a liability position related to these agreements was $3.6 million, excluding the effects of accrued interest. As of June 30, 2013, we had not posted any collateral related to these agreements. We are not in default with any of these provisions. If we breached any of these provisions, we could be required to settle our obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $3.8 million.

9. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

10. Equity

On April 22, 2013, COPT redeemed all of its outstanding 7.625% Series J Preferred Shares of beneficial interest (the “Series J Preferred Shares”) at a price of $25 per share, or $84.8 million in the aggregate, plus accrued and unpaid dividends thereon through the date of redemption. Concurrently, COPLP redeemed the Series J Preferred Units previously owned by COPT that carried terms substantially the same as the Series J Preferred Shares. At the time of the redemption, we recognized a $2.9 million decrease to net income available to common shareholders/unitholders pertaining to the original issuance costs incurred on these securities.

On March 19, 2013, COPT completed a public offering of 4,485,000 common shares at a price of $26.34 per share for net proceeds of $118.1 million (after underwriter discounts but before offering expenses) that were contributed to COPLP in exchange for 4,485,000 common units.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, limited partners in COPLP holding common units redeemed 279,019 common units in COPLP for common shares in COPT on the basis of one common share for each common unit.

See Note 12 for disclosure of COPT common share and COPLP common unit activity pertaining to our share-based compensation plans.

11. Information by Business Segment

We have ten reportable operating office property segments (comprised of: the Baltimore/Washington Corridor; Northern Virginia; San Antonio; Washington, DC — Capitol Riverfront; St. Mary’s and King George Counties; Greater Baltimore; Suburban Maryland; Colorado Springs; Greater Philadelphia; and other). We also have an operating wholesale data center segment. The table below reports segment financial information for our reportable segments (in thousands). We measure the performance of our segments through the measure we define as NOI from real estate operations, which is derived by subtracting property operating expenses from revenues from real estate operations.

As previously discussed, we provide real estate services such as property management and construction and development services primarily for our properties but also for third parties. The primary manner in which we evaluate the operating performance of our service activities is through a measure we define as net operating income from service operations (“NOI from service operations”), which is based on the net of revenues and expenses from these activities. Construction contract and other service revenues and expenses consist primarily of subcontracted costs that are reimbursed to us by the customer along with a management fee. The operating margins from these activities are small relative to the revenue. We believe NOI from service operations is a useful measure in assessing both our level of activity and our profitability in conducting such operations. The table below sets forth the computation of our NOI from service operations (in thousands):



	For the Three Months Ended June 30,						For the Six Months Ended June 30,

The following table reconciles our segment assets to COPT’s consolidated total assets (in thousands):



	June 30, 2013		June 30, 2012
Segment assets	$	3,048,562	$	2,982,956

Other assets	137,321		124,529
Total COPT consolidated assets	$	3,699,635	$	3,715,075

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those used to prepare our consolidated financial statements, except that discontinued operations are not presented separately for segment purposes. In the segment reporting presented above, we did not allocate interest expense, depreciation and amortization and impairment losses to our real estate segments since they are not included in the measure of segment profit reviewed by management. We also did not allocate general and administrative expenses, business development expenses and land carry costs, interest and other income, equity in loss of unconsolidated entities, income taxes and noncontrolling interests because these items represent general corporate or non-operating property items not attributable to segments.

12. Share-Based Compensation

Performance Share Units (“PSUs”)

On March 1, 2013, our Board of Trustees granted 69,579 PSUs with an aggregate grant date fair value of $1.9 million to executives. The PSUs have a performance period beginning on January 1, 2013 and concluding on the earlier of December 31, 2015 or the date of: (1) termination by us without cause, death or disability of the executive or constructive discharge of the executive (collectively, “qualified termination”); or (2) a sale event. The number of PSUs earned (“earned PSUs”) at the end of the performance period will be determined based on the percentile rank of COPT’s total shareholder return relative to a peer group of companies, as set forth in the following schedule:



Percentile Rank		Earned PSUs Payout %
75th or greater		200% of PSUs granted
50th		100% of PSUs granted
25th		50% of PSUs granted
Below 25th		0% of PSUs granted

If the percentile rank exceeds the 25th percentile and is between two of the percentile ranks set forth in the table above, then the percentage of the earned PSUs will be interpolated between the ranges set forth in the table above to reflect any performance between the listed percentiles. At the end of the performance period, we, in settlement of the award, will issue a number of fully-vested COPT common shares equal to the sum of:


•	the number of earned PSUs in settlement of the award plan; plus


•	the aggregate dividends that would have been paid with respect to the common shares issued in settlement of the earned PSUs through the date of settlement had such shares been issued on the grant date, divided by the share price on such settlement date, as defined under the terms of the agreement.

If a performance period ends due to a sale event or qualified termination, the number of earned PSUs is prorated based on the portion of the three-year performance period that has elapsed. If employment is terminated by the employee or by us for cause, all PSUs are forfeited. PSUs do not carry voting rights.

We computed a grant date fair value of $26.84 per PSU using a Monte Carlo model, which included assumptions of, among other things, the following: baseline common share value of $25.85; expected volatility for COPT common shares of 29.5%; and risk-free interest rate of 0.33%. We are recognizing the grant date fair value in connection with these PSU awards over the performance period.

The PSUs granted to our executives on March 1, 2012 and March 3, 2011, as described in COPT’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 25, 2013, were outstanding at June 30, 2013.

Restricted Shares

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, certain employees as well as nonemployee members of our Board of Trustees were granted a total of 166,835 restricted shares with an aggregate grant date fair value of $4.4 million (weighted average of $26.46 per share). Restricted shares granted to employees vest based on increments and over periods of time set forth under the terms of the respective awards provided that the employees remain employed by us. The grants of restricted shares to nonemployee Trustees vest on the first anniversary of the grant date provided that the Trustee remains in his or her position. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, forfeiture restrictions lapsed on 214,828 previously issued common shares; these shares had a weighted average grant date fair value of $31.48 per share, and the aggregate intrinsic value of the shares on the vesting dates was $5.7 million.

Options

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, 32,756 options to purchase common shares (“options”) were exercised. The weighted average exercise price of these options was $19.45 per share, and the aggregate intrinsic value of the options exercised was $237,000.

13. Income Taxes

We own a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) that is subject to Federal and state income taxes. Our TRS’s provision for income taxes consisted of the following (in thousands):



	For the Three Months Ended June 30,						For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013			2012			2013			2012
Deferred
Federal	$	(17	)	$	(13	)	$	(30	)	$	(180	)
State	(4		)	(4		)	(7		)	(41		)
Total income tax expense	$	(21	)	$	(17	)	$	(37	)	$	(221	)

Items in our TRS contributing to temporary differences that lead to deferred taxes include depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, certain accrued compensation, compensation paid in the form of contributions to a deferred nonqualified compensation plan and net operating losses that are not deductible until future periods.

Our TRS’s combined Federal and state effective tax rate was 36.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 38.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

14. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale

Income from discontinued operations primarily includes revenues and expenses associated with the following:


•	five properties in White Marsh, Maryland (in the Greater Baltimore region) that were sold on January 30, 2012;


•	1101 Sentry Gateway in San Antonio that was sold on January 31, 2012;


•	222 and 224 Schilling Circle in Greater Baltimore that were sold on February 10, 2012;


•	15 and 45 West Gude Drive in Suburban Maryland that were sold on May 2, 2012;


•	11800 Tech Road in Suburban Maryland that was sold on June 14, 2012;


•	400 Professional Drive in Suburban Maryland for which the title to the property was transferred to the mortgage lender on July 2, 2012;


•	23 operating properties in the Baltimore/Washington Corridor and Greater Baltimore regions that were sold on July 24, 2012;


•	920 Elkridge Landing Road in the Baltimore/Washington Corridor that was sold on June 25, 2013; and


•	16 operating properties in Colorado Springs and an operating property in Suburban Maryland classified as held for sale at June 30, 2013.

The table below sets forth the components of discontinued operations reported on our consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):

15. Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) and Earnings Per Unit (“EPU”)

COPT and Subsidiaries EPS

We present both basic and diluted EPS. We compute basic EPS by dividing net income available to common shareholders allocable to unrestricted common shares under the two-class method by the weighted average number of unrestricted common shares outstanding during the period. Our computation of diluted EPS is similar except that:


•	the denominator is increased to include: (1) the weighted average number of potential additional common shares that would have been outstanding if securities that are convertible into our common shares were converted; and (2) the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period attributable to share-based compensation using the treasury stock or if-converted methods; and


•	the numerator is adjusted to add back any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion into common shares that we added to the denominator.

Summaries of the numerator and denominator for purposes of basic and diluted EPS calculations are set forth below (in thousands, except per share data):

Our diluted EPS computations do not include the effects of the following securities since the conversions of such securities would increase diluted EPS for the respective periods (in thousands):



	Weighted Average Shares Excluded from Denominator
	For the Three Months Ended June 30,		For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013	2012	2013	2012

Conversion of Series I Preferred Units	176	176	176	176
Conversion of Series K Preferred Shares	434	434	434	434

The following share-based compensation securities were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because their effect was antidilutive:


•	weighted average restricted shares for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 of 379,000 and 434,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 of 394,000 and 503,000, respectively; and


•	weighted average options for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 of 536,000 and 768,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 of 537,000 and 793,000, respectively.

As discussed in Note 7, we have outstanding senior notes that have an exchange settlement feature but did not affect our diluted EPS reported above since the weighted average closing price of our common shares during each of the periods was less than the exchange prices per common share applicable for such periods.

COPLP and Subsidiaries EPU

We present both basic and diluted EPU. We compute basic EPU by dividing net income available to common unitholders allocable to unrestricted common units under the two-class method by the weighted average number of unrestricted common units outstanding during the period. Our computation of diluted EPU is similar except that:


•	the denominator is increased to include: (1) the weighted average number of potential additional common units that would have been outstanding if securities that are convertible into our common units were converted; and (2) the effect of dilutive potential common units outstanding during the period attributable to share-based compensation using the treasury stock or if-converted methods; and


•	the numerator is adjusted to add back any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion into common units that we added to the denominator.

The following share-based compensation securities were excluded from the computation of diluted EPU because their effect was antidilutive:


•	weighted average restricted units for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 of 379,000 and 434,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2013 of 394,000 and 503,000; and

As discussed in Note 7, we have outstanding senior notes that have an exchange settlement feature but did not affect our diluted EPU reported above since the weighted average closing price of COPT’s common shares during each of the periods was less than the exchange prices per common share applicable for such periods.

16. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

In the normal course of business, we are involved in legal actions arising from our ownership and administration of properties. We establish reserves for specific legal proceedings when we determine that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not anticipate that any liabilities that may result from such proceedings will have a materially adverse effect on our financial position, operations or liquidity. Our assessment of the potential outcomes of these matters involves significant judgment and is subject to change based on future developments.

Environmental

We are subject to various Federal, state and local environmental regulations related to our property ownership and operation. We have performed environmental assessments of our properties, the results of which have not revealed any environmental liability that we believe would have a materially adverse effect on our financial position, operations or liquidity.

Joint Ventures

In connection with our 2005 contribution of properties to an unconsolidated partnership in which we hold a partnership interest, we entered into standard nonrecourse loan guarantees (environmental indemnifications and guarantees against fraud and misrepresentation, and springing guarantees of partnership debt in the event of a voluntary bankruptcy of the partnership). The maximum amount we could be required to pay under the guarantees is approximately $64 million. We are entitled to recover 80% of any amounts paid under the guarantees from an affiliate of our partner pursuant to an indemnity agreement. In 2012, the holder of the mortgage debt encumbering all of the joint venture’s properties initiated foreclosure proceedings. Management considered this event and estimates that the aggregate fair value of the guarantees would not exceed the amounts included in distributions received in excess of investment in unconsolidated real estate joint venture reported on the consolidated balance sheets.

We are party to a contribution agreement that formed a joint venture relationship with a limited partnership to develop up to 1.3 million square feet of office space on 92 acres of land located in Hanover, Maryland. As we and the joint venture partner agree to proceed with the construction of buildings in the future, our joint venture partner would contribute land into newly-formed entities and we would make cash capital contributions into such entities to fund development and construction activities for which financing is not obtained. We owned a 50% interest in one such joint venture as of June 30, 2013.

We may be required to make our pro rata share of additional investments in our real estate joint ventures (generally based on our percentage ownership) in the event that additional funds are needed. In the event that the other members of these joint ventures do not pay their share of investments when additional funds are needed, we may then deem it appropriate to make even larger investments in these joint ventures.

Tax Incremental Financing Obligation

In August 2010, Anne Arundel County, Maryland issued $30 million in tax incremental financing bonds to third-party investors in order to finance public improvements needed in connection with our project known as National Business Park North. The real estate taxes on increases in assessed value of a development district encompassing National Business Park North are to be transferred to a special fund pledged to the repayment of the bonds. We recognized a $3.6 million liability through June 30, 2013 representing the estimated fair value of our obligation to fund through a special tax any future shortfalls between debt service on the bonds and real estate taxes available to repay the bonds.

Environmental Indemnity Agreement

We agreed to provide certain environmental indemnifications in connection with a lease and subsequent sale of three New Jersey properties. The prior owner of the properties, a Fortune 100 company that is responsible for groundwater contamination at such properties, previously agreed to indemnify us for (1) direct losses incurred in connection with the contamination and (2) its failure to perform remediation activities required by the State of New Jersey, up to the point that the state declares the remediation to be complete. Under the environmental indemnification agreement, we agreed to the following:


•	to indemnify the tenant against losses covered under the prior owner’s indemnity agreement if the prior owner fails to indemnify the tenant for such losses. This indemnification is capped at $5.0 million in perpetuity after the State of New Jersey declares the remediation to be complete;


•	to indemnify the tenant for consequential damages (e.g., business interruption) at one of the buildings in perpetuity and another of the buildings through 2025. This indemnification is limited to $12.5 million; and


•	to pay 50% of additional costs related to construction and environmental regulatory activities incurred by the tenant as a result of the indemnified environmental condition of the properties. This indemnification is limited to $300,000 annually and $1.5 million in the aggregate.

17. Subsequent Events

On July 15, 2013, COPT issued 1.5 million common shares at a weighted average price of $26.05 per share under its at-the-market (“ATM”) stock offering program established in October 2012, representing its first issuance under the ATM program. Net proceeds from the shares issued totaled $38.5 million, after payment of $586,000 in commissions to sales agents. The proceeds from the shares issued were contributed to COPLP in exchange for 1.5 million common units.

On July 16, 2013, we entered into an amendment to our credit agreement providing for an unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The amendment extended the maturity date of the facility from September 2014 to July 2017, with the ability for us to extend such maturity by one year at our option, provided that there is no default under the facility and we pay an extension fee of 0.15% of the total availability of the facility. The amendment also changed the interest rate on the facility to be based on LIBOR (customarily the 30-day rate) plus 0.975% to 1.75%, as determined by the credit ratings assigned to COPLP by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. or Fitch Ratings Ltd. (collectively, the “Ratings Agencies”). Also on July 16, 2013, we entered into amendments on $550.0 million in existing unsecured term loan agreements with the same group of lenders as the Revolving Credit Facility that added one-year in extension options and changed the interest rate applicable to the facilities to be based on LIBOR (customarily the 30-day rate) plus 1.10% to 2.00%, as determined by the credit ratings assigned to COPLP by the Ratings Agencies.

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

Overview

COPT is an office real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that focuses primarily on serving the specialized requirements of United States Government agencies and defense contractors, most of whom are engaged in defense information technology and national security related activities. COPT generally acquires, develops, manages and leases office and data center properties concentrated in large office parks located near knowledge-based government demand drivers and/or in targeted markets or submarkets in the Greater Washington, DC/Baltimore region. COPT conducts almost all of its operations through COPLP, a Delaware limited partnership, of which it is the sole general partner. COPLP owns real estate both directly and through subsidiary partnerships, corporations, business trusts and limited liability companies. COPLP also owns subsidiaries that provide real estate services such as property management, construction and development services primarily for our properties but also for third parties.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013:


•	COPT completed a public offering of 4,485,000 common shares at a price of $26.34 per share for net proceeds of $118.1 million, after underwriter discounts but before offering expenses, that were contributed to COPLP in exchange for 4,485,000 common units. The net proceeds were used to pay down our Revolving Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes;

•

COPT redeemed all of its outstanding Series J Preferred Shares at a price of $25 per share, or $84.8 million in the aggregate, plus accrued and unpaid dividends thereon through the date of redemption, using proceeds from the March 2013 public offering of common shares. These shares accrued dividends equal to 7.625% of the liquidation preference. In connection with this redemption, COPLP redeemed the Series J Preferred Units previously owned by COPT that carried terms substantially the same as the Series J Preferred Shares. At the time of the redemption, we recognized a $2.9 million decrease to net income available to common shareholders/unitholders pertaining to the original issuance costs incurred on the securities;


•	we repaid a $239.4 million principal amount of our 4.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes for an aggregate repayment amount of $255.1 million, and recognized a $25.9 million loss of early extinguishment of debt, including unamortized loan issuance costs. Most of this repayment resulted from a tender offer for the notes that was completed on June 27, 2013;

•

we issued a $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.600% Senior Notes at an initial offering price of 99.816% of their face value. The proceeds from the offering, after deducting discounts of the initial purchasers of the notes, but before other offering expenses, were approximately $347.1 million. We used the net proceeds of the offering to repay borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes, including partial repayment of certain of our unsecured debt;


•	we placed into service an aggregate of 236,000 square feet in three newly constructed properties proximate to defense installations and other knowledge-based demand drivers that were 100% leased as of March 31, 2013; and


•	we finished the period with occupancy of our portfolio of operating office properties at 88.2%.

The following occurred subsequent to June 30, 2013:

•

on July 15, 2013, COPT issued 1.5 million common shares at a weighted average price of $26.05 per share under its at-the-market (“ATM”) stock offering program established in October 2012, representing its first issuance under the ATM program. Net proceeds from the shares issued totaled $38.5 million, after payment of $586,000 in commissions to sales agents. The proceeds from the shares issued were contributed to COPLP in exchange for 1.5 million common units; and

•

on July 16, 2013, we entered into an amendment to our Revolving Credit Facility. The amendment extended the maturity date of the facility from September 2014 to July 2017, with the ability for us to extend such maturity by one year at our option, provided that there is no default under the facility and we pay an extension fee of 0.15% of the total availability of the facility. The amendment also changed the interest rate on the facility to be based on LIBOR (customarily the 30-day rate) plus 0.975% to 1.75%, as determined by the credit ratings assigned to COPLP by the Ratings Agencies. Also on July 16, 2013, we entered into amendments on $550.0 million in existing unsecured term loan agreements with the same group of lenders as the Revolving Credit Facility that added one-year in extension options and decreased the interest rate applicable to the facilities to be based on LIBOR (customarily the 30-day rate) plus 1.10% to 2.00%, as determined by the credit ratings assigned to COPLP by the Ratings Agencies.

We discuss significant factors contributing to changes in our net income in the section below entitled “Results of Operations.” The results of operations discussion is combined for COPT and COPLP because there are no material differences in the results of operations between the two reporting entities.

In addition, the section below entitled “Liquidity and Capital Resources” includes discussions of, among other things:


•	how we expect to generate cash for short and long-term capital needs; and


•	our commitments and contingencies.

You should refer to our consolidated financial statements as you read this section.

This section contains “forward-looking” statements, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that are based on our current expectations, estimates and projections about future events and financial trends affecting the financial condition and operations of our business. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “plan” or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which we cannot predict with accuracy and some of which we might not even anticipate. Although we believe that the expectations, estimates and projections reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions at the time made, we can give no assurance that these expectations, estimates and projections will be achieved. Future events and actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that may affect these expectations, estimates and projections include, but are not limited to:


•	general economic and business conditions, which will, among other things, affect office property and data center demand and rents, tenant creditworthiness, interest rates, financing availability and property values;


•	adverse changes in the real estate markets, including, among other things, increased competition with other companies;


•	governmental actions and initiatives, including risks associated with the impact of a government shutdown or budgetary reductions or impasses, such as a reduction in rental revenues, non-renewal of leases and/or a curtailment of demand for additional space by our strategic customers;


•	our ability to borrow on favorable terms;


•	risks of real estate acquisition and development activities, including, among other things, risks that development projects may not be completed on schedule, that tenants may not take occupancy or pay rent or that development or operating costs may be greater than anticipated;


•	our ability to sell properties included in our Strategic Reallocation Plan;


•	risks of investing through joint venture structures, including risks that our joint venture partners may not fulfill their financial obligations as investors or may take actions that are inconsistent with our objectives;


•	changes in our plans for properties or views of market economic conditions or failure to obtain development rights, either of which could result in recognition of significant impairment losses;


•	our ability to satisfy and operate effectively under Federal income tax rules relating to real estate investment trusts and partnerships;


•	the dilutive effects of issuing additional common shares;


•	our ability to achieve projected results; and


•	environmental requirements.

Occupancy of our Same Office Properties was 89.4% at June 30, 2013, up slightly from 88.8% at December 31, 2012.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we completed 1.8 million square feet of leasing and renewed 66.9% of the square footage of our lease expirations (including the effect of early renewals) for the period, which included the effect of an anticipated significant tenant move-out in one property.

Wholesale Data Center Property

Our wholesale data center property, which upon completion is expected to have a critical load of 18 megawatts, had nine megawatts in operations at June 30, 2013, of which 4.3 were leased to tenants with further expansion rights of up to a combined 5.2 megawatts.

Results of Operations

We evaluate the operating performance of our properties using NOI from real estate operations, our segment performance measure which is derived by subtracting property operating expenses from revenues from real estate operations. We view our NOI from real estate operations as comprising the following primary categories of operating properties:


•	office properties owned and 100% operational throughout the current and prior year reporting periods, excluding properties disposed or held for future disposition. We define these as changes from “Same Office Properties”;


•	office properties acquired during the current and prior year reporting periods;


•	constructed office properties placed into service that were not 100% operational throughout the current and prior year reporting periods;


•	office properties held for sale as of June 30, 2013;


•	office properties in the Greater Philadelphia region. In September 2012, we shortened the holding period for these properties because they no longer meet our strategic investment criteria; and


•	property dispositions.

Refer to Note 14 of the consolidated financial statements for a summary of operating properties that were either disposed or classified as held for sale and therefore are included in discontinued operations.

The primary manner in which we evaluate the operating performance of our construction management and other service activities is through a measure we define as NOI from service operations, which is based on the net of the revenues and expenses from these activities. The revenues and expenses from these activities consist primarily of subcontracted costs that are reimbursed to us by customers along with a management fee. The operating margins from these activities are small relative to the revenue. We believe NOI from service operations is a useful measure in assessing both our level of activity and our profitability in conducting such operations.

We believe that operating income, as reported on our consolidated statements of operations, is the most directly comparable generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measure for both NOI from real estate operations and NOI from service operations. Since both of these measures exclude certain items includable in operating income, reliance on these measures has limitations; management compensates for these limitations by using the measures simply as supplemental measures that are considered alongside other GAAP and non-GAAP measures.

The table below reconciles NOI from real estate operations and NOI from service operations to operating income reported on our consolidated statement of operations:

The increase in revenues from our Same Office Properties was attributable to a $2.6 million increase in rental revenue (including $922,000 in connection with lease terminations) and a $1.6 million increase in tenant recoveries and other real estate operations revenue. The increase in property operating expenses from Same Office Properties was primarily due to increases in expenses reimbursable from tenants, much of which was for repairs and maintenance. Our Same Office Properties pool consisted of 182 office properties, comprising 85.8% of our operating office square footage as of June 30, 2013.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

The loss on early extinguishment of debt in the current period was attributable primarily to a $20.6 million loss recognized on our repayment of a $185.7 million principal amount of our 4.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes resulting from a tender offer completed during the period.

Discontinued Operations

The decrease in discontinued operations was due primarily to additional impairment losses recognized in the current period resulting from dispositions completed or expected to occur in connection with the Strategic Reallocation Plan to dispose of properties and land that are no longer aligned with our strategy.

Preferred Share (Unit) Dividends (Distributions)

The increase in preferred share dividends/distributions was due to the effect of the issuance of the Series L Preferred Shares/Units in June 2012, partially offset by the effect of the redemptions of the Series G Preferred Shares /Units in August 2012 and the Series J Preferred Shares/Units in April 2013.

Issuance Costs Associated With Redeemed Preferred Shares/Units

The issuance costs associated with redeemed preferred shares/units was due to the redemptions of the Series J Preferred Shares/Units in April 2013.

The increase in revenues from our Same Office Properties was attributable to a $4.5 million increase in rental revenue (including $1.4 million in connection with lease terminations) and a $2.1 million increase in tenant recoveries and other real estate operations revenue.

Impairment Losses

We recognized impairment losses of $9.1 million in the current period (all of which was included in discontinued operations) and $8.9 million in the prior period (of which $13.8 million was included in discontinued operations) due primarily to dispositions completed or expected to occur in connection with the Strategic Reallocation Plan to dispose of properties and land that are no longer aligned with our strategy.

General and Administrative Expenses

The decrease in general and administrative expenses was attributable in large part to expenses incurred in 2012 in connection with our 2012 executive transition and staffing reductions.

Interest Expense

The decrease in interest expense was due primarily to a $354.4 million decrease in our average outstanding debt resulting from our repayments of debt using proceeds from property dispositions and equity issuances.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

The loss on early extinguishment of debt in the current period was attributable primarily to a $25.9 million loss recognized on our repayment of a $239.4 million principal amount of our 4.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes.

Gain on sales of real estate

The increase in gain on sales of real estate was attributable to the condemnation of a land parcel in the Greater Baltimore region in connection with an interstate widening project.

Preferred Share (Unit) Dividends (Distributions)

Issuance Costs Associated With Redeemed Preferred Shares/Units

The issuance costs associated with redeemed preferred shares/units was due to the redemptions of the Series J Preferred Shares/Units in April 2013.

Funds from Operations

Funds from operations (“FFO”) is defined as net (loss) income computed using GAAP, excluding gains on sales of, and impairment losses on, previously depreciated operating properties, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. When multiple properties consisting of both operating and non-operating properties exist on a single tax parcel, we classify all of the gains on sales of, and impairment losses on, the tax parcel as all being for previously depreciated operating properties when most of the value of the parcel is associated with operating properties on the parcel. We believe that we use the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition of FFO, although others may interpret the definition differently and, accordingly, our presentation of FFO may differ from those of other REITs. We believe that FFO is useful to management and investors as a supplemental measure of operating performance because, by excluding gains related to sales of, and impairment losses on, previously depreciated operating properties, net of related tax benefit, and excluding real estate-related depreciation and amortization, FFO can help one compare our operating performance between periods. In addition, since most equity REITs provide FFO information to the investment community, we believe that FFO is useful to investors as a supplemental measure for comparing our results to those of other equity REITs. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO.

Since FFO excludes certain items includable in net income, reliance on the measure has limitations; management compensates for these limitations by using the measure simply as a supplemental measure that is weighed in the balance with other GAAP and non-GAAP measures. FFO is not necessarily an indication of our cash flow available to fund cash needs. Additionally, it should not be used as an alternative to net income when evaluating our financial performance or to cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities when evaluating our liquidity or ability to make cash distributions or pay debt service.

Basic FFO available to common share and common unit holders (“Basic FFO”) is FFO adjusted to subtract (1) preferred share dividends, (2) issuance costs associated with redeemed preferred shares, (3) income attributable to noncontrolling interests through ownership of preferred units in the Operating Partnership or interests in other consolidated entities not owned by us, (4) depreciation and amortization allocable to noncontrolling interests in other consolidated entities and (5) Basic FFO allocable to restricted shares. With these adjustments, Basic FFO represents FFO available to common shareholders and common unitholders. Common units in the Operating Partnership are substantially similar to our common shares and are exchangeable into common shares, subject to certain conditions. We believe that Basic FFO is useful to investors due to the close correlation of common units to common shares. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Basic FFO. Basic FFO has essentially the same limitations as FFO; management compensates for these limitations in essentially the same manner as described above for FFO.

Diluted FFO available to common share and common unit holders (“Diluted FFO”) is Basic FFO adjusted to add back any changes in Basic FFO that would result from the assumed conversion of securities that are convertible or exchangeable into common shares. We believe that Diluted FFO is useful to investors because it is the numerator used to compute Diluted FFO per share, discussed below. We believe that the numerator for diluted EPS is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Diluted FFO. Since Diluted FFO excludes certain items includable in the numerator to diluted EPS, reliance on the measure has limitations; management compensates for these limitations by using the measure simply as a supplemental measure that is weighed in the balance with other GAAP and non-GAAP measures. Diluted FFO is not necessarily an indication of our cash flow available to fund cash needs. Additionally, it should not be used as an alternative to net income when evaluating our financial performance or to cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities when evaluating our liquidity or ability to make cash distributions or pay debt service.

Diluted FFO, as adjusted for comparability is defined as Diluted FFO adjusted to exclude operating property acquisition costs, gains on sales of, and impairment losses on, properties other than previously depreciated operating properties, net of associated income tax, gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt, loss on interest rate swaps and issuance costs associated with redeemed preferred shares. We believe that the excluded items are not reflective of normal operations and, as a result, we believe that a measure that excludes these items is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating our operating performance. We believe that the numerator to diluted EPS is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to this non-GAAP measure. This measure has essentially the same limitations as Diluted FFO, as well as the further limitation of not reflecting the effects of the excluded items; we compensate for these limitations in essentially the same manner as described above for Diluted FFO.

Diluted FFO per share is (1) Diluted FFO divided by (2) the sum of the (a) weighted average common shares outstanding during a period, (b) weighted average common units outstanding during a period and (c) weighted average number of potential additional common shares that would have been outstanding during a period if other securities that are convertible or exchangeable into common shares were converted or exchanged. We believe that Diluted FFO per share is useful to investors because it provides investors with a further context for evaluating our FFO results in the same manner that investors use earnings per share (“EPS”) in evaluating net income available to common shareholders. In addition, since most equity REITs provide Diluted FFO per share information to the investment community, we believe that Diluted FFO per share is a useful supplemental measure for comparing us to other equity REITs. We believe that diluted EPS is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Diluted FFO per share. Diluted FFO per share has most of the same limitations as Diluted FFO (described above); management compensates for these limitations in essentially the same manner as described above for Diluted FFO.

Diluted FFO per share, as adjusted for comparability is (1) Diluted FFO, as adjusted for comparability divided by (2) the sum of the (a) weighted average common shares outstanding during a period, (b) weighted average common units outstanding during a period and (c) weighted average number of potential additional common shares that would have been outstanding during a period if other securities that are convertible or exchangeable into common shares were converted or exchanged. We believe that this measure is useful to investors because it provides investors with a further context for evaluating our FFO results. We believe that diluted EPS is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to this per share measure. This measure has most of the same limitations as Diluted FFO (described above) as well as the further limitation of not reflecting the effects of the excluded items; we compensate for these limitations in essentially the same manner as described above for Diluted FFO.

The computations for all of the above measures on a diluted basis assume the conversion of common units in our Operating Partnership but do not assume the conversion of other securities that are convertible into common shares if the conversion of those securities would increase per share measures in a given period.

We use measures called payout ratios as supplemental measures of our ability to make distributions to investors based on each of the following: FFO; Diluted FFO; and Diluted FFO, adjusted for comparability. These measures are defined as (1) the sum of (a) dividends on common shares and (b) distributions to holders of interests in the Operating Partnership and dividends on convertible preferred shares when such distributions and dividends are included in Diluted FFO divided by either (2) FFO, Diluted FFO or Diluted FFO, adjusted for comparability.

The tables appearing below and on the following page sets forth the computation of the above stated measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 of COPT and subsidiaries, and provides reconciliations to the GAAP measures associated with such measures:

Cash Flows

Net cash flow provided by operating activities decreased $50.4 million when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 due primarily to: $35.0 million in previously accreted interest and early extinguishment of debt costs paid mostly in connection with the repayment of our 4.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes in the current period; a $14.1 million decrease in cash flow from construction contract and other services attributable in large part to the timing of cash payments and collections on construction projects; and $19.0 million in proceeds in the prior period from the sale of our stock in The KEYW Holding Corporation, including $5.1 million received in 2012 from sales completed in 2011; offset in part by $29.7 million in cash paid to cash settle interest rate swaps in the prior period.

Net cash flow used in investing activities increased $139.9 million when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 due mostly to a $118.5 million decrease in proceeds from sales of properties from the prior period.

Net cash flow provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $52.4 million and included the following:


•	net proceeds from the issuance of common shares (or units) of $118.8 million; and


•	net proceeds from debt borrowings of $83.5 million; offset in part by


•	redemption of preferred shares (or units) of $84.8 million; and


•	dividends and/or distributions to shareholders and/or unitholders of $60.7 million.

Net cash flow used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $137.3 million and included the following:


•	net repayments of debt of $236.4 million; and


•	dividends and/or distributions to shareholders and/or unitholders of $60.8 million; offset in part by


•	net proceeds from the issuance of preferred shares (or units) of $165.9 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources of COPT

COPLP is the entity through which COPT, the sole general partner in COPLP, conducts almost all of its operations and owns almost all of its assets. COPT issues public equity from time to time, but does not otherwise generate any capital itself or conduct any business itself, other than incurring certain expenses in operating as a public company which are fully reimbursed by COPLP. COPT itself does not hold any indebtedness, and its only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of COPLP. COPT’s principal funding requirement is the payment of dividends on its common and preferred shares. COPT’s principal source of funding for its dividend payments is distributions it receives from COPLP.

As of June 30, 2013, COPT owned 95.8% of the outstanding common units and 96.4% of the outstanding preferred units in COPLP; the remaining common and preferred units in COPLP were owned by third parties, which included certain members of COPT’s Board of Trustees. As the sole general partner of COPLP, COPT has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for COPLP’s day-to-day management and control.

The liquidity of COPT is dependent on COPLP’s ability to make sufficient distributions to COPT. The primary cash requirement of COPT is its payment of dividends to its shareholders. COPT also guarantees some of the Operating Partnership’s debt, as discussed further in Note 7 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein. If the Operating Partnership fails to fulfill certain of its debt requirements, which trigger COPT’s guarantee obligations, then

COPT will be required to fulfill its cash payment commitments under such guarantees. However, COPT’s only significant asset is its investment in COPLP.

As discussed further below, we believe the Operating Partnership’s sources of working capital, specifically its cash flow from operations, and borrowings available under its unsecured line of credit, are adequate for it to make its distribution payments to COPT and, in turn, for COPT to make its dividend payments to its shareholders. However, we cannot assure you that the Operating Partnership’s sources of capital will continue to be available at all or in amounts sufficient to meet its needs, including its ability to make distribution payments to COPT. The unavailability of capital could adversely affect the Operating Partnership’s ability to pay its distributions to COPT, which would in turn, adversely affect COPT’s ability to pay cash dividends to its shareholders.

COPT’s short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds to pay for future dividends expected to be paid to its shareholders. COPT periodically accesses the public equity markets to raise capital by issuing common and/or preferred shares.

For COPT to maintain its qualification as a REIT, it must pay dividends to its shareholders aggregating annually at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income. As a result of this distribution requirement, it cannot rely on retained earnings to fund its ongoing operations to the same extent that some other companies can. COPT may need to continue to raise capital in the equity markets to fund COPLP’s working capital needs, acquisitions and developments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources for the Operating Partnership

Our primary cash requirements are for operating expenses, debt service, development of new properties, improvements to existing properties and acquisitions. We expect to continue to use cash flow provided by operations as the primary source to meeting our short-term capital needs, including property operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, interest expense, scheduled principal amortization of debt, distributions to our security holders and improvements to existing properties. We believe that our liquidity and capital resources are adequate for our near-term and longer-term requirements without necessitating property sales. However, we expect to generate cash by selling properties included in the Strategic Reallocation Plan through 2013 and beyond.

We have historically relied on fixed-rate, non-recourse mortgage loans from banks and institutional lenders for long-term financing and to restore availability on our Revolving Credit Facility. In recent years, we have relied more on unsecured bank loans and publicly issued, convertible unsecured debt or senior unsecured notes for long-term financing. We also periodically access the public equity markets to raise capital by issuing common and/or preferred shares. In addition, we expect to periodically access the unsecured debt market.

We often use our Revolving Credit Facility to initially finance much of our investing activities. We then pay down the facility using proceeds from long-term borrowings, equity issuances and property sales. The lenders’ aggregate commitment under the facility is $800.0 million, with the ability for us to increase the lenders’ aggregate commitment to $1.3 billion, provided that there is no default under the facility and subject to the approval of the lenders. Amounts available under the facility are computed based on 60% of our unencumbered asset value, as defined in the agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility matures in July 2017, and may be extended by one year at our option, provided that there is no default under the facility and we pay an extension fee of 0.15% of the total availability of the facility. As of June 30, 2013, the maximum borrowing capacity under this facility totaled $800.0 million, of which $650.9 million was available.

We also have construction loan facilities that provide for aggregate borrowings of up to $26.2 million, all of which was available at June 30, 2013 to fund future construction costs at specific projects.

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2013 (in thousands):



	For the Periods Ending December 31,
	2013		2014		2015		2016		2017		Thereafter		Total

Operating leases (8)	664		1,212		1,090		1,027		1,018		83,844		88,855
Other purchase obligations (9)	1,394		2,067		1,102		564		104		—		5,231
Total contractual cash obligations	$	117,595	$	436,571	$	513,905	$	327,215	$	573,783	$	660,447	$	2,629,516


(1)	The contractual obligations set forth in this table generally exclude property operations contracts that had a value of less than $20,000. Also excluded are contracts associated with the operations of our properties that may be terminated with notice of one month or less, which is the arrangement that applies to most of our property operations contracts.

(2)

Represents scheduled principal amortization payments and maturities only and therefore excludes a net discount of $3.0 million. As of June 30, 2013, the balloon payment maturities include $148.0 million in 2014 and $300.0 million in 2015 that may each be extended for one year, subject to certain conditions; effective July 16, 2013, we amended the terms of certain of our debt agreements such that the $148.0 million maturity in 2014 was changed to 2017 (and may be extended for one-year), an additional one-year extension option was added to the $300.0 million maturing in 2015 and a one-year extension option was added to $250.0 million maturing in 2017. We expect to refinance the remainder of the balloon payments that are due in 2014 using primarily a combination of borrowings under our credit facilities and by accessing the unsecured debt market and/or secured debt market.


(3)	Represents interest costs for debt at June 30, 2013 for the terms of such debt. For variable rate debt, the amounts reflected above used June 30, 2013 interest rates on variable rate debt in computing interest costs for the terms of such debt.


(4)	Represents contractual obligations pertaining to new construction and redevelopment activities. Construction and redevelopment activities underway or contractually committed at June 30, 2013 included the following:



Activity	Number of Properties	Square Feet (in thousands)	Estimated Remaining Costs(in millions)		Expected Year For Costs to be Incurred Through
Construction of new office properties	11	1,544	$	126.4	2015
Redevelopment of existing office properties	1	183	6.7		2014


(5)	Due to the long-term nature of certain construction and development contracts and leases included in these lines, the amounts reported in the table represent our estimate of the timing for the related obligations being payable.


(6)	Represents contractual obligations pertaining to projects for which we are acting as construction manager on behalf of unrelated parties who are our clients. We expect to be reimbursed in full for these costs by our clients.


(7)	Represents contractual obligations pertaining to recurring and nonrecurring capital expenditures for our operating properties. We expect to finance these costs primarily using cash flow from operations.


(8)	We expect to pay these items using cash flow from operations.


(9)	Primarily represents contractual obligations pertaining to managed-energy service contracts in place for certain of our operating properties. We expect to pay these items using cash flow from operations.

We expect to spend more than $100.0 million on construction and development costs and approximately $30.0 million on improvements to operating properties (including the commitments set forth in the table above) during the remainder of 2013. We expect to fund the construction and development costs and our debt maturities during the remainder of 2013 using primarily a combination of borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and existing construction loan facilities. We expect to fund improvements to existing operating properties using cash flow from operations.

Certain of our debt instruments require that we comply with a number of restrictive financial covenants, including maximum leverage ratio, unencumbered leverage ratio, minimum net worth, minimum fixed charge coverage, minimum unencumbered interest coverage ratio, minimum debt service and maximum secured indebtedness ratio. As of June 30, 2013, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We had no significant changes in our off-balance sheet arrangements from those described in the section entitled “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements” in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 25, 2013.

Inflation

Most of our tenants are obligated to pay their share of a building’s operating expenses to the extent such expenses exceed amounts established in their leases, based on historical expense levels. Some of our tenants are obligated to pay their full share of a building’s operating expenses. These arrangements somewhat reduce our exposure to increases in such costs resulting from inflation.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to certain market risks, the most predominant of which is change in interest rates. Increases in interest rates can result in increased interest expense under our Revolving Credit Facility and other variable rate debt. Increases in interest rates can also result in increased interest expense when our fixed rate debt matures and needs to be refinanced.

The following table sets forth as of June 30, 2013 our debt obligations and weighted average interest rates for fixed rate debt by expected maturity date (dollars in thousands):



	For the Periods Ending December 31,
	2013			2014			2015			2016			2017			Thereafter			Total
Long term debt: (1)
Fixed rate debt (2)	$	9,871		$	158,170		$	109,092		$	279,339		$	302,115		$	381,423		$	1,240,010
Weighted average interest rate	6.43		%	6.40		%	5.58		%	6.56		%	5.54		%	3.63		%	5.30		%
Variable rate debt	$	396		$	148,815		$	336,877		$	—		$	250,000		$	120,000		$	856,088

(1)

As of June 30, 2013, maturities include $148.0 million in 2014 and $300.0 million in 2015 that may each be extended for one year, subject to certain conditions; effective July 16, 2013, we amended the terms of certain of our debt agreements such that the $148.0 million maturity in 2014 was changed to 2017 (and may be extended for one-year), an additional one-year extension option was added to the $300.0 million maturing in 2015 and a one-year extension option was added to $250.0 million maturing in 2017.


(2)	Represents principal maturities only and therefore excludes net discounts of $3.0 million.

The fair market value of our debt was $2.1 billion at June 30, 2013. If interest rates had been 1% lower, the fair value of our fixed-rate debt would have increased by approximately $50.0 million at June 30, 2013.

The following table sets forth information pertaining to interest rate swap contracts in place as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and their respective fair values (dollars in thousands):



							Fair Value at
Notional Amount			Fixed Rate	Floating Rate Index	Effective Date	Expiration Date	June 30, 2013			December 31, 2012

							$	3,407		$	(6,185	)


(1)	The notional amount of this instrument is scheduled to amortize to $36.2 million.

Based on our variable-rate debt balances, including the effect of interest rate swap contracts, our interest expense would have increased by $2.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 if short-term interest rates were 1% higher.
