Operating Properties

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we acquired the four operating office properties, listed below, in two transactions from unrelated third parties. The January 2013 acquisition was funded with a portion of the remaining proceeds from the sale of our industrial portfolio that was included in restricted cash at December 31, 2012 and the assumption of existing mortgage debt (see Note 5). The September 2013 acquisition was funded with proceeds from our September 2013 equity offering (see Note 7).
