(1) This amount represents the aggregate difference between the Company’s historical cost basis and the basis reflected at the joint venture level, which is typically amortized over the life of the related assets and liabilities. Basis differentials result from impairments of investments, acquisitions through joint ventures with no change in control and upon the transfer of assets that were previously owned by the Company into a joint venture. In addition, certain acquisition, transaction and other costs may not be reflected in the net assets at the joint venture level. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there was an aggregate basis differential of approximately $325.9 million and $328.8 million, respectively, between the carrying value of the Company’s investment in the joint venture that owns Colorado Center and the joint venture’s basis in the assets and liabilities, which differential (excluding land) shall be amortized over the remaining lives of the related assets and liabilities.

(2) Investments with deficit balances aggregating approximately $20.6 million and $22.1 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, have been reflected within Other Liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
