EXPLANATORY NOTE

We refer to Highwoods Properties, Inc. as the “Company,” Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership as the “Operating Partnership,” the Company’s common stock as “Common Stock” or “Common Shares,” the Company’s preferred stock as “Preferred Stock” or “Preferred Shares,” the Operating Partnership’s common partnership interests as “Common Units,” the Operating Partnership’s preferred partnership interests as “Preferred Units” and in-service properties (excluding for-sale residential condominiums) to which the Company and/or the Operating Partnership have title and 100.0% ownership rights as the “Wholly Owned Properties.” References to “we” and “our” mean the Company and the Operating Partnership, collectively, unless the context indicates otherwise.

The Company conducts virtually all of its activities through the Operating Partnership and is its sole general partner. The partnership agreement provides that the Operating Partnership will assume and pay when due, or reimburse the Company for payment of, all costs and expenses relating to the ownership and operations of, or for the benefit of, the Operating Partnership. The partnership agreement further provides that all expenses of the Company are deemed to be incurred for the benefit of the Operating Partnership.

Certain information contained herein is presented as of July 18, 2013, the latest practicable date for financial information prior to the filing of this Quarterly Report.

This report combines the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2013 of the Company and the Operating Partnership. We believe combining the quarterly reports into this single report results in the following benefits:


•	combined reports better reflect how management and investors 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 Consolidated Financial Statements:


•	Note 4 - Investments in and Advances to Affiliates;


•	Note 8 - Noncontrolling Interests; and


•	Note 13 - Earnings Per Share and Per Unit;


•	Item 4 - Controls and Procedures; and


•	Item 6 - Certifications of CEO and CFO Pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2013

(tabular dollar amounts in thousands, except per share and per unit data)

(Unaudited)

1. Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Highwoods Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) is a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that provides leasing, management, development, construction and other customer-related services for its properties and for third parties. The Company conducts virtually all of its activities through Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). At June 30, 2013, the Company and/or the Operating Partnership wholly owned: 291 in-service office, industrial and retail properties, comprising 29.6 million square feet; 634 acres of undeveloped land suitable for future development, of which 566 acres are considered core assets; and two office development properties. In addition, we owned interests (50.0% or less) in 30 in-service office properties, a rental residential development property and 11 acres of undeveloped land suitable for future development, which includes a 12.5% interest in a 261,000 square foot office property directly owned by the Company (not included in the Operating Partnership’s Consolidated Financial Statements).

The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. At June 30, 2013, the Company owned all of the Preferred Units and 83.6 million, or 95.8%, of the Common Units in the Operating Partnership. Limited partners, including two directors of the Company, own the remaining 3.7 million Common Units. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company redeemed 72,471 Common Units for a like number of shares of Common Stock. As a result of this activity, the percentage of Common Units owned by the Company increased from 95.6% at December 31, 2012 to 95.8% at June 30, 2013.

Common Stock Offerings

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company issued 1,756,590 and 3,056,381 shares of Common Stock, respectively, under its equity sales agreements at an average gross sales price of $38.32 and $37.31 per share, respectively, and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $66.3 million and $112.3 million, respectively.

Basis of Presentation

Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2012 were retrospectively revised from previously reported amounts to reflect in real estate and other assets, net, held for sale those properties classified as held for sale during the three months ended June 30, 2013. Our Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were retrospectively revised from previously reported amounts to reflect in discontinued operations the operations for those properties classified as discontinued operations.

The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements include the Operating Partnership, wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities in which the Company has the controlling interest. The Operating Partnership's Consolidated Financial Statements include wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities in which the Operating Partnership has the controlling interest. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had involvement with, but are not the primary beneficiary in, an entity that we concluded to be a variable interest entity (see Note 3).

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. We have omitted certain notes and other information from the interim Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this Quarterly Report as permitted by SEC rules and regulations. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

1. Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies – Continued

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Real Estate Assets

Acquisitions

During the second quarter of 2013, we acquired an office property in Atlanta, GA encompassing 553,000 square feet for a purchase price of $140.1 million.

During the first quarter of 2013, we acquired:


•	two office properties in Tampa, FL encompassing 372,000 square feet for a purchase price of $52.5 million,


•	two office properties in Greensboro, NC encompassing 195,000 square feet for a purchase price of $30.8 million, and


•	five acres of development land in Memphis, TN for a purchase price of $4.8 million.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we expensed $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of acquisition costs (included in general and administrative expenses) related to these acquisitions. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at fair value as determined by management based on information available at the acquisition date and on current assumptions as to future operations.

Dispositions

During the second quarter of 2013, we sold:


•	five industrial properties in Atlanta, GA for a sale price of $4.5 million (after $0.1 million in closing credits to buyer for free rent) and recorded a gain on disposition of discontinued operations of less than $0.1 million;


•	six industrial properties and a land parcel in a single transaction in Atlanta, GA for a sale price of $38.7 million (before $1.8 million in closing credits to buyer for unfunded tenant improvements and after $1.3 million in closing credits to buyer for free rent) and recorded a gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $13.2 million; and


•	two industrial properties in Atlanta, GA for a sale price of $4.8 million and recorded a loss on disposition of discontinued operations of less than $0.1 million.

During the first quarter of 2013, we sold two office properties in Orlando, FL for a sale price of $14.6 million (before $0.8 million in closing credits to buyer for unfunded tenant improvements) and recorded a loss on disposition of discontinued operations of $0.3 million.

In connection with the disposition of an office property in Jackson, MS in the third quarter of 2012, we had the right to receive additional cash consideration of up to $1.5 million upon the satisfaction of a certain post-closing requirement. The post-closing requirement was satisfied and the cash consideration was received during the first quarter of 2013. Accordingly, we recognized $1.5 million in additional gain on disposition of discontinued operations in the first quarter of 2013.

2. Real Estate Assets - Continued

Impairments

During the second quarter of 2013, we recorded impairments of real estate assets of $1.1 million on four properties in a single office park in Winston-Salem, NC. These impairments were due to a change in the assumed timing of future dispositions and leasing assumptions, which reduced the future expected cash flows from the properties.

During the first quarter of 2013, we recorded impairments of real estate assets of $0.4 million on two industrial properties in Atlanta, GA and recorded impairments of real estate assets held for sale of $0.7 million on five industrial properties in Atlanta, GA. These properties were subsequently sold in the second quarter of 2013 and are classified as discontinued operations. These impairments were due to a change in the assumed timing of future dispositions and leasing assumptions, which reduced the future expected cash flows from the properties.

3. Mortgages and Notes Receivable

The following table sets forth our mortgages and notes receivable:



	June 30, 2013			December 31, 2012
Seller financing (first mortgages)	$	16,113		$	15,853
Less allowance	—			—
	16,113			15,853
Mortgage receivable	8,715			8,648

	8,715			8,648
Promissory notes	1,131			1,153
Less allowance	(376		)	(182		)
	755			971
Mortgages and notes receivable, net	$	25,583		$	25,472

During 2010, we provided seller financing in conjunction with two disposition transactions. The seller financing is evidenced by first mortgages secured by the assignment of rents and the underlying real estate assets.

During 2012, we provided secured acquisition financing to a third party. We also agreed to loan such third party $8.4 million on a secured basis to fund future infrastructure development. As of June 30, 2013, $0.1 million has been funded to the third party for infrastructure development. We concluded this arrangement to be an interest in a variable interest entity. However, since we do not have the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of the entity, we do not qualify as the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, the entity is not consolidated. Our risk of loss with respect to this arrangement is limited to the carrying value of the mortgage receivable and the future infrastructure development funding commitment.

We evaluate the ability to collect our mortgages and notes receivable by monitoring the leasing statistics and/or market fundamentals of these assets. As of June 30, 2013, our mortgages and notes receivable were not in default and there were no other indicators of impairment.

Highwoods DLF 98/29, LLC ("DLF I")

During the second quarter of 2013, DLF I sold an office property to an unrelated third party for a sale price of $5.9 million (after $0.1 million in closing credits to buyer for free rent) and recorded a gain on disposition of discontinued operations of less than $0.1 million. We recorded less than $0.1 million as our share of this gain through equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates.

During the first quarter of 2013, DLF I recorded impairments of real estate assets of $4.8 million on an office property in Atlanta, GA and an office property in Charlotte, NC. We recorded $1.0 million as our share of this impairment charge through equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. These impairments were due to a change in the assumed timing of future dispositions and leasing assumptions, which reduced the future expected cash flows from the properties.

Highwoods DLF 97/26 DLF 99/32, LP ("DLF II")

During the first quarter of 2013, DLF II sold an office property to unrelated third parties for a sale price of $10.1 million (after $0.3 million in closing credits to buyer for free rent) and recorded a gain on disposition of property of less than $0.1 million. As our cost basis is different from the basis reflected at the joint venture level, we recorded $0.4 million of gain through equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates.

At June 30, 2013, our secured mortgage loans were collateralized by real estate assets with an aggregate undepreciated book value of $964.8 million.

During the first quarter of 2013, we prepaid the remaining $35.0 million balance on a $200.0 million bank term loan that was originally scheduled to mature in February 2016. We recorded $0.2 million of loss on debt extinguishment related to this repayment.

We are currently in compliance with the debt covenants and other requirements with respect to our debt.


7.	Derivative Financial Instruments

Our interest rate swaps have been designated as and are being accounted for as cash flow hedges with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income each reporting period. No gain or loss was recognized related to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on our cash flow hedges during the six months ended June 30, 2013. We have no collateral requirements related to our interest rate swaps.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. During the period from July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014, we estimate that $3.2 million will be reclassified to interest expense.

For the periods ending June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, all of our derivatives were in a liability position. The following table sets forth the fair value of our liability derivatives:

9.	Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following summarizes the three levels of inputs that we use to measure fair value.

Level 1. Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Our Level 1 assets are investments in marketable securities that we use to pay benefits under our non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Our Level 1 liability is our non-qualified deferred compensation obligation. The Company's Level 1 noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership relate to the ownership of Common Units by various individuals and entities other than the Company.

Level 2. Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.

Our Level 2 asset is the fair value of certain of our mortgages and notes receivable, which was estimated by the income approach utilizing contractual cash flows and market-based interest rates to approximate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants.

Our Level 2 liabilities include (1) the fair value of our mortgages and notes payable, which was estimated by the income approach utilizing contractual cash flows and market-based interest rates to approximate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants and (2) interest rate swaps whose fair value is determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts and the discounted expected variable cash payments. The variable cash payments of our interest rate swaps are based on the expectation of future LIBOR interest rates (forward curves) derived from observed market LIBOR interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk, but were concluded to not be significant inputs to the calculation for the periods presented.

Level 3. Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Our Level 3 assets include (1) certain of our mortgages and notes receivable, which were estimated by the income approach utilizing internal cash flow projections and market interest rates to estimate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants, (2) our tax increment financing bond, which is not routinely traded but whose fair value is determined by the income approach utilizing contractual cash flows and market-based interest rates to estimate the projected redemption value based on quoted bid/ask prices for similar unrated municipal bonds, and (3) any real estate assets recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis as a result of our quarterly impairment analysis, which were valued using the terms of definitive sales contracts or the sales comparison approach and substantiated with internal cash flow projections.

Our Level 3 liabilities include the fair value of our contingent consideration to acquire real estate assets and financing obligations, which were estimated by the income approach to approximate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants, utilizing: (1) contractual cash flows; (2) market-based interest rates; and (3) a number of other assumptions including demand for space, competition for customers, changes in market rental rates, costs of operation and expected ownership periods.

During 2007, we acquired a tax increment financing bond associated with a parking garage developed by us. This bond amortizes to maturity in 2020. The estimated fair value at June 30, 2013 was $1.6 million below the outstanding principal due on the bond. If the discount rate used to fair value this bond was 100 basis points higher or lower, the fair value of the bond would have been $0.5 million lower or $0.5 million higher, respectively, as of June 30, 2013. We intend to hold this bond and have concluded that we will not be required to sell this bond before recovery of the bond principal. Payment of the principal and interest for the bond is guaranteed by us. We have recorded no credit losses related to the bond during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. There is no legal right of offset with the liability, which we report as a financing obligation, related to this tax increment financing bond.

The impaired real estate assets that were measured in the second quarter of 2013 at fair value and deemed to be Level 3 assets were valued based primarily on market-based inputs and our assumptions about the use of the assets, as observable inputs were not available. In the absence of observable inputs, we estimate the fair value of real estate using unobservable data such as estimated discount and capitalization rates. We also utilize local and national industry market data such as comparable sales, sales contracts and appraisals to assist us in our estimation of fair value. Significant increases or decreases in any valuation inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

The following table sets forth quantitative information about the unobservable inputs of our Level 3 assets and liability, which are recorded at fair value on our Consolidated Balance Sheets:



	Fair Value at June 30, 2013		Valuation Technique	Unobservable Input	Rate/ Percentage
Assets:
Tax increment financing bond	$	14,233	Income approach	Discount rate	10.2%
Impaired real estate assets	$	5,866	Income approach	Capitalization rate	9.5%-10.5%
				Discount rate	14.0%-15.0%

10.	Share-Based Payments

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company granted 168,700 stock options with an exercise price equal to the closing market price of a share of its Common Stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which resulted in a weighted average grant date fair value per share of $6.50. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company also granted 86,144 shares of time-based restricted stock and 65,486 shares of total return-based restricted stock with weighted average grant date fair values per share of $36.64 and $31.73, respectively. We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $1.3 million and $2.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $4.7 million and $4.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. At June 30, 2013, there was $6.1 million of total unrecognized stock-based compensation costs, which will be recognized over a weighted average remaining contractual term of 2.6 years.

15.	Subsequent Events

In early July 2013, the Company issued 515,536 shares of Common Stock under its equity sales agreements at an average gross sales price of $35.21 per share and raised net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $17.9 million.

On July 19, 2013, we acquired our joint venture partner's 60.0% interest in the HIW-KC Orlando, LLC joint venture, which owns five office buildings encompassing 1.3 million square feet in Orlando, FL, for a purchase price of $113.3 million. We expect to expense $0.1 million of related acquisition costs. We previously accounted for our 40.0% interest in this joint venture using the equity method of accounting. The assets and liabilities of the joint venture are now wholly owned and will be recorded in our future Consolidated Financial Statements, including assets expected to be recorded at fair value of $188.9 million and secured debt expected to be recorded at fair value of $127.9 million, with an effective interest rate of 3.11%. This debt matures in July 2014. As a result of acquiring a controlling interest in this joint venture, our previously held equity interest was remeasured at fair value resulting in a gain of approximately $7 million. Due to the limited time since the acquisition date, our initial accounting for this transaction is incomplete and, as such, we are unable to provide purchase price allocation disclosures.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed equity REIT that provides leasing, management, development, construction and other customer-related services for our properties and for third parties. The Company conducts virtually all of its activities through the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership is managed by the Company, its sole general partner. At June 30, 2013, we wholly owned: 291 in-service office, industrial and retail properties, comprising 29.6 million square feet; 634 acres of undeveloped land suitable for future development, of which 566 acres are considered core assets; and two office development properties. In addition, we owned interests (50.0% or less) in 30 in-service office properties, a rental residential development property and 11 acres of undeveloped land suitable for future development, which includes a 12.5% interest in a 261,000 square foot office property directly owned by the Company (not included in the Operating Partnership’s Consolidated Financial Statements). We are based in Raleigh, North Carolina, and our properties and development land are located in Florida, Georgia, Missouri, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Additional information about us can be found on our website at www.highwoods.com. Information on our website is not part of this Quarterly Report.

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Some of the information in this Quarterly Report may contain forward-looking statements. Such statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and prospects under this section. You can identify forward-looking statements by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “continue” or other similar words. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that our plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. When considering such forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the following important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement:


•	the financial condition of our customers could deteriorate;


•	we may not be able to lease or release second generation space, defined as previously occupied space that becomes available for lease, quickly or on as favorable terms as old leases;


•	we may not be able to lease our newly constructed buildings as quickly or on as favorable terms as originally anticipated;


•	we may not be able to complete development, acquisition, reinvestment, disposition or joint venture projects as quickly or on as favorable terms as anticipated;


•	development activity by our competitors in our existing markets could result in an excessive supply of office, industrial and retail properties relative to customer demand;


•	our markets may suffer declines in economic growth;


•	unanticipated increases in interest rates could increase our debt service costs;


•	unanticipated increases in operating expenses could negatively impact our operating results;


•	we may not be able to meet our liquidity requirements or obtain capital on favorable terms to fund our working capital needs and growth initiatives or to repay or refinance outstanding debt upon maturity; and


•	the Company could lose key executive officers.

This list of risks and uncertainties, however, is not intended to be exhaustive. You should also review the other cautionary statements we make in “Business – Risk Factors” set forth in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect any future events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Executive Summary

Our Strategic Plan focuses on:


•	owning high-quality, differentiated real estate assets in the key infill business districts in our core markets;


•	improving the operating results of our existing properties through concentrated leasing, asset management, cost control and customer service efforts;


•	developing and acquiring office properties in key infill business districts that improve the overall quality of our portfolio and generate attractive returns over the long term for our stockholders;


•	selectively disposing of properties no longer considered to be core assets primarily due to location, age, quality and/or overall strategic fit; and


•	maintaining a conservative, flexible balance sheet with ample liquidity to meet our funding needs and growth prospects.

While we own and operate a limited number of industrial, retail and residential properties, our operating results depend heavily on successfully leasing and operating our office properties. Economic growth and employment levels in our core markets are and will continue to be important determinative factors in predicting our future operating results.

The key components affecting our rental and other revenues are average occupancy, rental rates, levels of cost recovery income, new developments placed in service, acquisitions and dispositions. Average occupancy generally increases during times of improving economic growth, as our ability to lease space outpaces vacancies that occur upon the expirations of existing leases. Average occupancy generally declines during times of slower economic growth, when new vacancies tend to outpace our ability to lease space. Asset acquisitions, dispositions and new developments placed in service directly impact our rental revenues and could impact our average occupancy, depending upon the occupancy rate of the properties that are acquired, sold or placed in service. A further indicator of the predictability of future revenues is the expected lease expirations of our portfolio. As a result, in addition to seeking to increase our average occupancy by leasing current vacant space, we also must concentrate our leasing efforts on renewing leases on expiring space. For more information regarding our lease expirations, see "Properties - Lease Expirations" in our 2012 Annual Report. Our occupancy declined from 90.9% at December 31, 2012 to 90.0% at June 30, 2013 primarily due to a scheduled expiration of a large customer in Tampa, FL and the acquisition of a relatively low occupied 553,000 square foot building in Atlanta, GA in the second quarter. We expect average occupancy to be 90.1% for the second half of 2013 compared to 90.4% for the first half of 2013 primarily due to the effect of the scheduled expiration and acquisition referenced above and a scheduled expiration later this year of a large customer in Atlanta, GA.

Whether or not our rental revenue tracks average occupancy proportionally depends upon whether rents under signed new and renewal leases are higher or lower than the rents under the previous leases. Annualized rental revenues from second generation leases expiring during any particular year are generally less than 15% of our total annual rental revenues. The following table sets forth information regarding second generation leases signed during the second quarter of 2013 (we define second generation leases as leases with new customers, renewals of existing customers for space that has been previously occupied under our ownership and leases with respect to vacant space in acquired buildings):

Table of Contents

Compared to previous leases, annual GAAP rents for new and renewal leases combined were $19.82 per square foot, or 1.1% higher, for office leases, $5.27 per square foot, or 4.8% higher, for industrial leases and $34.39 per square foot, or 81.3% higher, for retail leases.

We strive to maintain a diverse, stable and creditworthy customer base. We have an internal guideline whereby customers that account for more than 3% of our revenues are periodically reviewed with the Company's Board of Directors. Currently, no customer accounts for more than 3% of our revenues other than the Federal Government, which accounted for less than 10.0% of our revenues on an annualized basis, as of June 30, 2013.

Our expenses primarily consist of rental property expenses, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses and interest expense. From time to time, expenses also include impairments of real estate assets. Rental property expenses are expenses associated with our ownership and operation of rental properties and include expenses that vary somewhat proportionately to occupancy levels, such as maintenance, repairs and utilities, and expenses that do not vary based on occupancy, such as property taxes and insurance. Depreciation and amortization is a non-cash expense associated with the ownership of real property and generally remains relatively consistent each year, unless we buy, place in service or sell assets, since we depreciate our properties and related building and tenant improvement assets on a straight-line basis over fixed lives. General and administrative expenses, net of amounts capitalized, consist primarily of management and employee salaries and other personnel costs, corporate overhead and long-term incentive compensation.

We intend to maintain a conservative and flexible balance sheet that allows us to capitalize on favorable development and acquisition opportunities as they arise. We anticipate commencing up to $235 million of new development in 2013. Any such projects would not be placed in service until 2015 or beyond. We also anticipate acquiring up to $550 million of properties and selling up to $225 million of non-core properties in 2013. We generally seek to acquire and develop assets that are consistent with our Strategic Plan, improve the average quality of our overall portfolio and deliver consistent and sustainable value for our stockholders over the long-term. Whether or not an asset acquisition or new development results in higher per share net income or FFO in any given period depends upon a number of factors, including whether the net operating income for any such period exceeds the actual cost of capital used to finance the acquisition. We generally intend to grow the Company on a leverage-neutral basis. Forward-looking information regarding 2013 operating performance contained below under "Results of Operations" excludes the impact of any potential acquisitions or dispositions.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012

Rental and Other Revenues

Rental and other revenues from continuing operations were $11.8 million, or 9.3%, higher in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to recent acquisitions, which accounted for $12.8 million of the increase, partly offset by lower same property revenues of $1.1 million. Same property revenues were lower in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to a decrease in average occupancy to 90.0% in the second quarter of 2013 from 90.4% in the second quarter of 2012. We expect rental and other revenues for the remainder of 2013 to increase over 2012 primarily due to the full period contribution of acquisitions closed in 2012 and the first half of 2013.

Operating Expenses

Rental property and other expenses were $3.7 million, or 8.2%, higher in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to recent acquisitions, which accounted for $4.9 million of the increase, partly offset by lower same property operating expenses of $1.0 million. Same property operating expenses were lower in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to lower utilities and repairs and maintenance, partly offset by higher property taxes. We expect rental property and other expenses for the remainder of 2013 to increase over 2012 primarily due to the full period contribution of acquisitions closed in 2012 and the first half of 2013 and increases in same property operating expenses.

Operating margin, defined as rental and other revenues less rental property and other expenses expressed as a percentage of rental and other revenues, was higher at 64.2% for the second quarter of 2013 as compared to 63.8% for the second quarter of 2012. Operating margin is expected to slightly decrease for the remainder of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to the seasonality of utility expenses and the timing of repairs and maintenance.

Table of Contents

Depreciation and amortization was $3.4 million, or 8.7%, higher in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to recent acquisitions. We expect depreciation and amortization for the remainder of 2013 to increase over 2012 primarily due to the full period contribution of acquisitions closed in 2012 and the first half of 2013.

We recorded impairments of real estate assets of $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2013 on four properties in a single office park in Winston-Salem, NC, which resulted from a change in the assumed timing of future dispositions and leasing assumptions. We recorded no such impairments in the second quarter of 2012. Impairments can arise from a number of factors; accordingly, there can be no assurances that we will not be required to record additional impairment charges in the future.

General and administrative expenses were $0.5 million, or 5.7%, lower in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to lower incentive compensation, partly offset by higher salaries and acquisition costs. We expect general and administrative expenses for the remainder of 2013 to decrease when compared with 2012 primarily due to lower incentive compensation and acquisition costs, partly offset by higher salaries.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $1.1 million, or 4.5%, lower in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to lower average interest rates and higher capitalized interest, partly offset by higher average debt balances. We expect interest expense for the remainder of 2013 to decrease when compared with 2012 primarily due to lower average interest rates and higher capitalized interest.

Other Income

Other income was $0.9 million higher in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to a loss on debt extinguishment in 2012. We expect other income for the remainder of 2013 to decrease when compared with 2012 primarily due to a decrease in interest income on notes receivable resulting from the 2012 repayment of a secured loan we made to our DLF I joint venture in 2011.

Net Gains on Disposition of Discontinued Operations

Net gains on disposition of discontinued operations were $11.8 million higher in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to 2012 due to the net effect of our disposition activity.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012

Rental and Other Revenues

Rental and other revenues from continuing operations were $23.9 million, or 9.5%, higher in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to recent acquisitions, which accounted for $24.1 million of the increase, partly offset by lower same property revenues of $0.9 million. Same property revenues were lower in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to lower termination fees.

Operating Expenses

Rental property and other expenses were $8.3 million, or 9.2%, higher in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to recent acquisitions, which accounted for $8.9 million of the increase, partly offset by lower same property operating expenses of $0.4 million. Same property operating expenses were lower in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to lower utilities and repairs and maintenance, partly offset by higher contract services and insurance premiums.

Operating margin, defined as rental and other revenues less rental property and other expenses expressed as a percentage of rental and other revenues, was slightly higher at 64.2% for the first six months of 2013, as compared to 64.1% for the first six months of 2012.

Depreciation and amortization was $8.5 million, or 11.3%, higher in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to recent acquisitions.

We recorded impairments of real estate assets of $1.1 million in the first six months of 2013 on four properties in a single office park in Winston-Salem, NC, which resulted from a change in the assumed timing of future dispositions and leasing assumptions. We recorded no such impairments in the first six months of 2012.

Table of Contents

General and administrative expenses were $0.4 million, or 2.2%, higher in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to higher acquisition costs and salaries, partly offset by lower incentive compensation.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $1.9 million, or 3.9%, lower in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to lower average interest rates and higher capitalized interest.

Other Income

Other income was $0.2 million, or 8.1%, higher in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to a loss on debt extinguishment in 2012, partly offset by a decrease in interest income on notes receivable resulting from the 2012 repayment of a secured loan we made to our DLF I joint venture in 2011.

Net Gains on Disposition of Discontinued Operations

Net gains on disposition of discontinued operations were $7.2 million higher in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 due to the net effect of our disposition activity. In the first quarter of 2013, we recorded impairments of real estate assets of $0.4 million on two industrial properties in Atlanta, GA and recorded impairments of real estate assets held for sale of $0.7 million on five industrial properties in Atlanta, GA, which resulted from a change in the assumed timing of future dispositions and leasing assumptions. These properties were subsequently sold in the second quarter of 2013 and are classified as discontinued operations. We recorded no such impairments in the first six months of 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our goal is to maintain a conservative and flexible balance sheet with access to multiple sources of debt and equity capital and sufficient availability under our revolving credit facility. We generally use rents received from customers to fund our operating expenses, recurring capital expenditures and distributions. To fund property acquisitions, development activity or building renovations and repay debt upon maturity, we may use current cash balances, sell assets, obtain new debt and/or issue equity. Our debt generally consists of mortgage debt, unsecured debt securities, bank term loans and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

Statements of Cash Flows

We report and analyze our cash flows based on operating activities, investing activities and financing activities. The following table sets forth the changes in the Company’s cash flows ($ in thousands):



	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013			2012			Change
Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities	$	116,926		$	93,328		$	23,598
Net Cash Used In Investing Activities	(240,685		)	(39,024		)	(201,661		)
Net Cash Provided By/(Used In) Financing Activities	120,098			(58,965		)	179,063
Total Cash Flows	$	(3,661	)	$	(4,661	)	$	1,000

In calculating net cash related to operating activities, depreciation and amortization, which are non-cash expenses, are added back to net income. As a result, we have historically generated a positive amount of cash from operating activities. From period to period, cash flow from operations depends primarily upon changes in our net income, as discussed more fully above under “Results of Operations,” changes in receivables and payables, and net additions or decreases in our overall portfolio, which affect the amount of depreciation and amortization expense.

Net cash related to investing activities generally relates to capitalized costs incurred for leasing and major building improvements and our acquisition, development, disposition and joint venture capital activity. During periods of significant net acquisition and/or development activity, our cash used in such investing activities will generally exceed cash provided by investing activities, which typically consists of cash received upon the sale of properties and distributions of capital from our joint ventures.

Net cash related to financing activities generally relates to distributions, incurrence and repayment of debt, and issuances, repurchases or redemptions of Common Stock, Common Units and Preferred Stock. As discussed previously, we use a significant amount of our cash to fund distributions. Whether or not we have increases in the outstanding balances of debt during a period depends generally upon the net effect of our acquisition, disposition, development and joint venture activity. We generally use our revolving credit facility for daily working capital purposes, which means that during any given period, in order to minimize interest expense, we may record significant repayments and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

The change in net cash related to operating activities in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 was primarily due to higher net cash from the operations of acquired properties and lower cash paid for operating expenses.

The change in net cash related to investing activities in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 was primarily due to higher acquisition and development activity in 2013, partly offset by higher net proceeds from dispositions of real estate assets in 2013.

The change in net cash related to financing activities in the first six months of 2013 as compared to 2012 was primarily due to higher net repayments of borrowings in 2012, partly offset by higher proceeds from the issuance of Common Stock in 2013.

Capitalization

The following table sets forth the Company’s capitalization (in thousands, except per share amounts):



	June 30, 2013		December 31, 2012
Mortgages and notes payable, at recorded book value	$	1,931,655	$	1,859,162
Financing obligations	$	28,392	$	29,358
Preferred Stock, at liquidation value	$	29,077	$	29,077
Common Stock outstanding	83,968		80,311
Common Units outstanding (not owned by the Company)	3,661		3,733
Per share stock price at period end	$	35.61	$	33.45
Market value of Common Stock and Common Units	$	3,120,469	$	2,811,272
Total market capitalization	$	5,109,593	$	4,728,869

At June 30, 2013, our mortgages and notes payable and outstanding preferred stock represented 38.4% of our total market capitalization and 43.4% of the undepreciated book value of our assets.

Our mortgages and notes payable as of June 30, 2013 consisted of $544.5 million of secured indebtedness with a weighted average interest rate of 5.75% and $1,387.1 million of unsecured indebtedness with a weighted average interest rate of 4.34%. The secured indebtedness was collateralized by real estate assets with an aggregate undepreciated book value of $964.8 million.

Current and Future Cash Needs

Rental and other revenues are our principal source of funds to meet our short-term liquidity requirements. Other sources of funds for short-term liquidity needs include available working capital and borrowings under our existing revolving credit facility, which had $361.9 million of availability at July 18, 2013. Our short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of operating expenses, interest and principal amortization on our debt, distributions and capital expenditures, including building improvement costs, tenant improvement costs and lease commissions. Building improvements are capital costs to maintain or enhance existing buildings not typically related to a specific customer. Tenant improvements are the costs required to customize space for the specific needs of customers. We anticipate that our available cash and cash equivalents and cash provided by operating activities, together with cash available from borrowings under our revolving credit facility, will be adequate to meet our short-term liquidity requirements.

Our long-term liquidity uses generally consist of the retirement or refinancing of debt upon maturity (including mortgage debt, our revolving credit facility, term loans and other unsecured debt), funding of existing and new building development or land infrastructure projects and funding acquisitions of buildings and development land. Our expected future capital expenditures for started and/or committed new development projects were $72.9 million at June 30, 2013. Additionally, we may, from time to time, retire some or all of our remaining outstanding Preferred Stock and/or unsecured debt securities through redemptions, open market repurchases, privately negotiated acquisitions or otherwise.

We expect to meet our long-term liquidity needs through a combination of:


•	cash flow from operating activities;


•	bank term loans and borrowings under our revolving credit facility;


•	the issuance of unsecured debt;


•	the issuance of secured debt;


•	the issuance of equity securities by the Company or the Operating Partnership; and


•	the disposition of non-core assets.

Acquisition and Disposition Activity

During the second quarter of 2013, we acquired an office property in Atlanta, GA encompassing 553,000 square feet for a purchase price of $140.1 million and recorded acquisition-related costs of $0.4 million.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at fair value as determined by management based on information available at the acquisition date and on current assumptions as to future operations. We have invested or intend to invest an additional $3.3 million in the aggregate of planned building improvements and future tenant improvements committed under existing leases acquired in the building acquisition. Based on the total anticipated investment of $143.4 million, the capitalization rate for the acquisition of this building, which was 67% occupied at closing, is 4.9% using projected GAAP net operating income from existing customers for our first year of ownership. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. See “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

In the normal course of business, we regularly evaluate potential acquisitions. As a result, from time to time, we may have one or more potential acquisitions under consideration that are in varying stages of evaluation, negotiation or due diligence, including potential acquisitions that are subject to non-binding letters of intent or enforceable contracts. Consummation of any transaction is subject to a number of contingencies, including the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. No assurances can be provided that we will acquire any properties in the future. Acquired properties may fail to perform in accordance with our expectations due to lease-up risk, renovation cost risks and other factors. In addition, the renovation and improvement costs we incur in bringing an acquired property up to market standards may exceed our estimates. Acquired properties could change our liquidity position, capital resources and revenues and expenses.

During the second quarter of 2013, we sold:


•	five industrial properties in Atlanta, GA for a sale price of $4.5 million (after $0.1 million in closing credits to buyer for free rent) and recorded a gain on disposition of discontinued operations of less than $0.1 million;


•	six industrial properties and a land parcel in a single transaction in Atlanta, GA for a sale price of $38.7 million (before $1.8 million in closing credits to buyer for unfunded tenant improvements and after $1.3 million in closing credits to buyer for free rent) and recorded a gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $13.2 million; and


•	two industrial properties in Atlanta, GA for a sale price of $4.8 million and recorded a loss on disposition of discontinued operations of less than $0.1 million.

Financing Activity

On May 1, 2013, we entered into separate equity sales agreements with each of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BB&T Capital Markets, a division of BB&T Securities, LLC, Comerica Securities, Inc., Jefferies LLC and Piper Jaffray & Co. Under the terms of the equity distribution agreements, the Company may offer and sell shares of its Common Stock from time to time through such firms, acting as agents of the Company or as principals. Sales of the shares, if any, may be made by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the New York Stock Exchange or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices or as otherwise agreed with any of such firms. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company issued 1,756,590 shares of Common Stock at an average gross sales price of $38.32 per share and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $66.3 million. We paid an aggregate of $1.0 million in sales commissions to Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and Jefferies LLC during the second quarter of 2013. In early July 2013, the Company issued 515,536 shares of Common Stock at an average gross sales price of $35.21 per share and raised net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $17.9 million. We paid an aggregate of $0.3 million in sales commissions to Jefferies LLC in connection with these issuances.

Our $475.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility is scheduled to mature in July 2015 and includes an accordion feature that allows for an additional $75.0 million of borrowing capacity subject to additional lender commitments. Assuming no defaults have occurred, we have an option to extend the maturity for an additional year. We use our revolving credit facility for working capital purposes and for the short-term funding of our development and acquisition activity and, in certain instances, the repayment of other debt. The continued ability to borrow under the revolving credit facility allows us to quickly capitalize on strategic opportunities at short-term interest rates. There was $135.4 million and $113.0 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility at June 30, 2013 and July 18, 2013, respectively. At both June 30, 2013 and July 18, 2013, we had $0.1 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduces the availability on our revolving credit facility. As a result, the unused capacity of our revolving credit facility at June 30, 2013 and July 18, 2013 was $339.5 million and $361.9 million, respectively.

Table of Contents

The interest rate and facility fee on our revolving credit facility and the interest rate on our bank term loans are based on the higher of the publicly announced ratings from Moody's Investors Service or Standard & Poor's Ratings Services. On June 26, 2013, Moody's Investors Service upgraded our senior unsecured debt rating from Baa3 to Baa2. As a result, with respect to our revolving credit facility, the interest rate was immediately reduced from LIBOR plus 150 basis points to LIBOR plus 130 basis points and the annual facility fee was immediately reduced from 35 basis points to 25 basis points. Effective July 1, 2013, the interest rate on our $200 million bank term loan due 2018 was reduced from LIBOR plus 165 basis points to LIBOR plus 135 basis points and the interest rate on our $225 million bank term loan due 2019 was reduced from LIBOR plus 190 basis points to LIBOR plus 175 basis points.

We regularly evaluate the financial condition of the financial institutions that participate in our credit facilities and as counterparties under interest rate swap agreements using publicly available information. Based on this review, we currently expect these financial institutions to perform their obligations under our existing facilities and swap agreements.

Covenant Compliance

We are currently in compliance with the covenants and other requirements with respect to our debt. Although we expect to remain in compliance with these covenants and ratios for at least the next year, depending upon our future operating performance, property and financing transactions and general economic conditions, we cannot assure you that we will continue to be in compliance.

Our revolving credit facility and bank term loans require us to comply with customary operating covenants and various financial requirements. Upon an event of default on the revolving credit facility, the lenders having at least 66.7% of the total commitments under the revolving credit facility can accelerate all borrowings then outstanding, and we could be prohibited from borrowing any further amounts under our revolving credit facility, which would adversely affect our ability to fund our operations.

The Operating Partnership has the following unsecured notes currently outstanding ($ in thousands):



	Face Amount		Carrying Amount		Stated Interest Rate		Effective Interest Rate
Notes due in 2017	$	379,685	$	379,253	5.850	%	5.880	%
Notes due in 2018	$	200,000	$	200,000	7.500	%	7.500	%
Notes due in 2023	$	250,000	$	247,492	3.625	%	3.752	%

The indenture that governs these outstanding notes requires us to comply with customary operating covenants and various financial ratios. The trustee or the holders of at least 25.0% in principal amount of either series of bonds can accelerate the principal amount of such series upon written notice of a default that remains uncured after 60 days.

We may not be able to repay, refinance or extend any or all of our debt at maturity or upon any acceleration. If any refinancing is done at higher interest rates, the increased interest expense could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to pay distributions. Any such refinancing could also impose tighter financial ratios and other covenants that restrict our ability to take actions that could otherwise be in our best interest, such as funding new development activity, making opportunistic acquisitions, repurchasing our securities or paying distributions.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the second quarter of 2013, our DLF I joint venture sold an office property to an unrelated third party for a sale price of $5.9 million (after $0.1 million in closing credits to buyer for free rent) and recorded a gain on disposition of discontinued operations of less than $0.1 million. We recorded less than $0.1 million as our share of this gain through equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates.

We previously accounted for our 40.0% interest in this joint venture using the equity method of accounting. The assets and liabilities of the joint venture are now wholly owned and will be recorded in our future Consolidated Financial Statements, including assets expected to be recorded at fair value of $188.9 million and secured debt expected to be recorded at fair value of $127.9

Table of Contents

million, with an effective interest rate of 3.11%. This debt matures in July 2014. As a result of acquiring a controlling interest in this joint venture, our previously held equity interest was remeasured at fair value resulting in a gain of approximately $7 million.

Critical Accounting Estimates

There were no changes made by management to the critical accounting policies in the six months ended June 30, 2013. For a description of our critical accounting estimates, see “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Estimates” in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Non-GAAP Information

The Company believes that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and FFO per share are beneficial to management and investors and are important indicators of the performance of any equity REIT. Because FFO and FFO per share calculations exclude such factors as depreciation, amortization and impairments of real estate assets and gains or losses from sales of operating real estate assets, which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, they facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other REITs. Management believes that historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient on a stand-alone basis. As a result, management believes that the use of FFO and FFO per share, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of the Company's performance relative to its competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing and investing activities.

FFO and FFO per share are non-GAAP financial measures and therefore do not represent net income or net income per share as defined by GAAP. Net income and net income per share as defined by GAAP are the most relevant measures in determining the Company's operating performance because FFO and FFO per share include adjustments that investors may deem subjective, such as adding back expenses such as depreciation, amortization and impairments. Furthermore, FFO per share does not depict the amount that accrues directly to the stockholders' benefit. Accordingly, FFO and FFO per share should never be considered as alternatives to net income or net income per share as indicators of the Company's operating performance.

The Company's presentation of FFO is consistent with FFO as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which is calculated as follows:


•	Net income/(loss) computed in accordance with GAAP;


•	Less net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated affiliates;


•	Plus depreciation and amortization of depreciable operating properties;


•	Less gains, or plus losses, from sales of depreciable operating properties, plus impairments on depreciable operating properties and excluding items that are classified as extraordinary items under GAAP;


•	Plus or minus our share of adjustments, including depreciation and amortization of depreciable operating properties, for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures (to reflect funds from operations on the same basis); and


•	Plus or minus adjustments for depreciation and amortization and gains/(losses) on sales of depreciable operating properties, plus impairments on depreciable operating properties, and noncontrolling interests in consolidated affiliates related to discontinued operations.

In calculating FFO, the Company includes net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership, which the Company believes is consistent with standard industry practice for REITs that operate through an UPREIT structure. The Company believes that it is important to present FFO on an as-converted basis since all of the Common Units not owned by the Company are redeemable on a one-for-one basis for shares of its Common Stock.

In addition, the Company believes net operating income from continuing operations (“NOI”) and same property NOI are useful supplemental measures of the Company’s property operating performance because such metrics provide a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly involved in owning real estate assets and provides a perspective not immediately apparent from net income or FFO. The Company defines NOI as rental and other revenues from continuing operations, less rental property and other expenses from continuing operations. The Company defines cash NOI as NOI less straight-line rent and lease termination fees. Other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate NOI and same property NOI.

Our same property portfolio currently consists of 279 in-service office, industrial and retail properties encompassing 26.9 million square feet that were wholly owned during the entirety of the periods presented (from January 1, 2012 to June 30, 2013). In our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K, our same property portfolio consisted of 284 in-service office, industrial and retail properties encompassing 25.8 million square feet that were wholly owned during the entirety of the periods presented therein (from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2012). The change in our same property portfolio was due to the addition of eight office properties encompassing 2.1 million square feet acquired during 2011 and two newly developed office properties encompassing 0.2 million square feet placed in service during 2011, offset by the removal of two office properties and 13 industrial properties encompassing 1.2 million square feet classified as discontinued operations during 2013.

Rental and other revenues related to properties not in our same property portfolio were $17.2 million and $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $32.4 million and $7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Rental property and other expenses related to properties not in our same property portfolio were $7.2 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $13.4 million and $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The effects of potential changes in interest rates are discussed below. Our market risk discussion includes “forward-looking statements” and represents an estimate of possible changes in fair value or future earnings that would occur assuming hypothetical future movements in interest rates. Actual future results may differ materially from those presented. See “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources” and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our accounting policies and other information related to these financial instruments.

We borrow funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Our debt consists of secured and unsecured long-term financings, unsecured debt securities, loans and credit facilities, which typically bear interest at fixed rates although some loans bear interest at variable rates. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, from time to time we enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as collars, swaps, caps and treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. We generally do not hold or issue these derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

At June 30, 2013, we had $1,371.3 million principal amount of fixed rate debt outstanding (not including debt with a variable rate that is effectively fixed by related interest rate swaps). The estimated aggregate fair market value of this debt was $1,456.0 million. If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher, the aggregate fair market value of our fixed rate debt would have been $53.7 million lower. If interest rates had been 100 basis points lower, the aggregate fair market value of our fixed rate debt would have been $57.0 million higher.

At June 30, 2013, we had $335.4 million of variable rate debt outstanding not protected by interest rate hedge contracts. If the weighted average interest rate on this variable rate debt had been 100 basis points higher, the annual interest expense would increase $3.4 million. If the weighted average interest rate on this variable rate debt had been 100 basis points lower, the annual interest expense would decrease $3.4 million.

At June 30, 2013, we had $225.0 million of variable rate LIBOR-based debt outstanding with $225.0 million of related floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps. These swaps effectively fix the underlying LIBOR rate of the debt at 1.678%. If LIBOR interest rates increase or decrease by 100 basis points, the aggregate fair market value of the swaps at June 30, 2013 would increase by $10.8 million or decrease by $12.5 million, respectively. We are exposed to certain losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties, which are major financial institutions, under the swaps. We regularly evaluate the financial condition of our counterparties using publicly available information. Based on this review, we currently expect the counterparties to perform fully under the swaps. However, if a counterparty defaults on its obligations under a swap, we could be required to pay the full rates on the applicable debt, even if such rates were in excess of the rate in the contract.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

SEC rules require us to maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our annual and periodic reports filed with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. The Company's CEO and CFO have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company and the Operating Partnership were each effective at the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report.

SEC rules also require us to establish and maintain internal control over financial reporting designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2013 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. There were also no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2013 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Operating Partnership's internal control over financial reporting.
