Acquisitions and Dispositions

Acquisitions and Dispositions

Acquisitions and dispositions for the periods presented were completed in accordance with our strategy to reposition our investment concentration among product types and further diversify our geographic presence. With the exception of certain properties that have been sold or classified as held for sale, the results of operations for all acquired properties have been included in continuing operations within our consolidated financial statements since their respective dates of acquisition.

Acquisitions

We acquired two industrial properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. One of the acquired properties had in place leases at the date of acquisition and was accounted for as a business combination, while there were no in place leases in the other property, which was accounted for as an asset acquisition. The following table summarizes amounts recognized for each major class of asset and liability (in thousands) for these acquisitions:

Real estate assets	$	26,276
Lease related intangible assets	2,001
Total acquired assets	28,277
Other liabilities	319
Total assumed liabilities	319
Fair value of acquired net assets	$	27,958

Acquired leases had an average remaining life at acquisition of approximately 9.2 years.

We have included $450,000 in rental revenues and $69,000 in income from continuing operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 for the properties since their respective dates of acquisition.

Fair Value Measurements

The fair value estimates used in allocating the aggregate purchase price of an acquisition, to the extent accounted for as a business combination, among the individual components of real estate assets and liabilities were determined primarily through calculating the "as-if vacant" value of a building, using the income approach, and relied significantly upon internally determined assumptions. We have determined that these estimates primarily rely upon Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs based on our own assumptions. The most significant assumptions utilized in making the lease-up and future disposition estimates used in calculating the "as-if vacant" value for acquisition activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 are as follows:

Discount rate	7.07%
Exit capitalization rate	5.57%
Lease-up period (months)	12
Net rental rate per square foot - Industrial	$4.85

Acquisition-Related Activity

The acquisition-related activity in our consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income consisted of adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration from acquisitions after the measurement period was complete and transaction costs for completed acquisitions.

Dispositions

Dispositions of buildings (see Note 11 for the number of buildings sold as well as for their classification between continuing and discontinued operations) and undeveloped land generated net cash proceeds of $1.53 billion and $386.2 million during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

On April 1, 2015, we completed the previously announced suburban office portfolio sale (the "Suburban Office Portfolio Sale") to a joint venture with affiliates of Starwood Capital Group, Vanderbilt Partners and Trinity Capital Advisors for approximately $1.07 billion in proceeds and recorded a gain on sale of $398.6 million. The Suburban Office Portfolio Sale included all of our wholly-owned, in-service suburban office properties located in Nashville, Raleigh, South Florida and St. Louis. The portfolio included approximately 6.7 million square feet across 61 buildings and 57 acres of undeveloped land. Additionally, an office asset currently under construction in Raleigh is expected to be sold upon completion in late 2015 or early 2016.

A portion of the purchase price for the Suburban Office Portfolio Sale was financed through a $200.0 million first mortgage on certain of the properties in the Suburban Office Portfolio that we provided to the seller. The first mortgage matures on December 31, 2016, is prepayable after January 1, 2016, and bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.5%. We have reviewed the creditworthiness of the entities with which we hold this first mortgage and have concluded it is probable that we will be able to collect all amounts due according to its contractual terms.

On April 8, 2015, we completed the sale of 51 non-strategic industrial properties for $270.0 million in proceeds and recorded a gain on sale of $107.3 million. These properties totaled 5.2 million square feet and were located in primarily Midwest markets.
