NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

September 30, 2015

The use of the words “the company,” “we,” “us,” “our company,” or “our” refers to Landmark Apartment Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Landmark Apartment Trust Holdings, LP, except where the context otherwise requires.

1. Organization and Description of Business

Landmark Apartment Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was incorporated on December 21, 2005. We are self-administered and self-managed, and we conduct substantially all of our operations through Landmark Apartment Trust Holdings, LP, or our operating partnership. We are in the business of acquiring, owning and managing a diverse portfolio of quality properties with stable cash flows and growth potential primarily in the Sunbelt region, which comprises the South and certain Texas markets of the United States. We may acquire and have acquired other real estate-related investments. We focus primarily on investments that produce current income. We have qualified and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, for federal income tax purposes and we intend to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT.

As of September 30, 2015, we consolidated 72 properties, including six properties held through consolidated joint ventures, with an aggregate of 21,796 apartment units, which had an aggregate gross carrying value of $1.7 billion. We refer to these properties as our consolidated properties. As of September 30, 2015, we also managed ten properties. Six of these properties, which had an aggregate of 1,991 apartment units at September 30, 2015, are owned by Timbercreek U.S. Multi-Residential Operating L.P., or the Timbercreek Fund, in which we own an indirect minority interest through our investment in Timbercreek U.S. Multi-Residential (U.S.) Holding L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, or Timbercreek Holding. Timbercreek Holding is a limited partner in the Timbercreek Fund. We refer to these six properties as our managed equity investment properties. The remaining four properties, which we refer to as our managed third party properties, as of September 30, 2015, had an aggregate of 1,134 apartment units, were owned by one or more third parties, including certain entities affiliated with Elco Landmark Residential Holdings, LLC, or ELRH. Since September 30, 2015, one of these managed third party properties was sold and we no longer managed such property.

All of our consolidated and managed properties are managed by LATPM, LLC, or our property manager.

These financial statements have not been audited. Amounts as of December 31, 2014 included in these financial statements have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for interim financial information and the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Although we believe our footnote disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, you should read these financial statements in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes to those consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2015.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation due to the addition of property lease expense into general, administrative and other expenses.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS- (Continued)

Goodwill

Goodwill resulting from business combinations is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any non-controlling interests in the acquired business, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis or in interim periods if events or circumstances indicate potential impairment. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded $496,000 and $1.7 million, respectively, of impairment to goodwill, which was primarily due to the reduction of future economic benefits which is recorded in restructuring and impairment charges in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we sold our equity interest in two of our managed equity investments while two of our managed equity investment properties and one of our managed third party properties were sold by their owners and, since September 30, 2015, another one of our managed third party properties was sold by its owner and, therefore, we no longer manage such properties. Utilizing the discounted cash flow method of the income approach, we estimated a fair market value to measure the impairment to goodwill, including a weighted probability of the expected loss of certain contracts in the future, which is a Level 3 fair value measurement. The transfer of 11 of our managed third party properties and the related reduction of future economic benefits was included in the annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2014. No impairment was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had goodwill of $2.9 million and $4.6 million, respectively, included in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Income Taxes

For federal income tax purposes, we have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2006, and we intend to continue to be taxed as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to pay distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on net income that we distribute to our stockholders. We are subject to state and local income taxes in some jurisdictions, and in certain circumstances we may also be subject to federal excise taxes on undistributed income. In addition, certain of our activities must be conducted by subsidiaries that elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs. TRSs are subject to both federal and state income taxes.

Our property manager is organized as a TRS and accordingly is subject to income taxation. During the second quarter of 2014, we determined that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will not be realized due to losses incurred by the property manager and recorded a valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the valuation allowance was $2.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively. It is expected that any future net deferred tax assets will continue to be offset by a valuation allowance until the property manager establishes a pattern of profitability. To the extent the property manager generates consistent income, we may reduce the valuation allowance in the period such determination is made.

Income tax expense of $99,000 and $396,000 was recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, which consisted entirely of state income tax expense for each respective period.

As of September 30, 2015, total net operating loss carry forward for federal income tax purposes was approximately $67.0 million and $7.0 million for our company and our TRS, respectively. The net operating loss carry forwards will expire beginning in 2026 and 2031 for our company and our TRS, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued accounting standards update, or ASU, 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Certain contracts are excluded from ASU 2014-09, including lease contracts within the scope of the FASB guidance included in Leases. As originally issued, public entities were

required to adopt ASU 2014-09 during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim reporting periods during the year of adoption; however, on August 12, 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU 2015-14”), which delayed the new revenue standard’s effective date by one year.  An entity may adopt ASU 2014-09 using either a full retrospective approach for each

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS- (Continued)

prior reporting period presented or a modified retrospective approach.  Under the latter approach an entity will (i) recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 as an adjustment to the opening balance of its retained earnings or accumulated deficit during the annual reporting period that includes the date of initial application of ASU 2014-09 and (ii) provide certain supplemental disclosures during reporting periods that include the date of initial application of ASU 2014-09.  Early adoption of ASU 2014-09 was not initially permitted by public entities; however, ASU 2015-14 provides for early adoption by such entities but not before the original effective date of the new revenue standard.  Due to the complex analyses required under ASU 2014-09, we have not yet determined the impact thereof on our consolidated financial statements or the method of adoption that the Company will apply.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)," effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The amendments in this update provide guidance in GAAP about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, that the adoption of ASU 2014-15 will have on our footnote disclosures.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, "Consolidation (Topic 810)," effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments in this update affect reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. All legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model. We are currently evaluating to determine the potential impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2015-02 will have on our financial position and results of operations.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, "Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30)," effective for the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The standard simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs and requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The new guidance will only impact financial statement presentation. The guidance is effective in the first quarter of 2016 and allows for early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

Mortgage Loan Payables, Net

Mortgage loan payables were $1.119 billion ($1.116 billion, excluding premium) and $1.02 billion ($1.01 billion, excluding premium) as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. As of September 30, 2015, we had 40 fixed rate and 18 variable rate mortgage loans with effective interest rates ranging from 1.80% to 6.58% per annum and a weighted average effective interest rate of 3.78% per annum. As of September 30, 2015, we had $679.1 million ($676.1 million, excluding premium) of fixed rate debt, or 60.7% of mortgage loan payables, at a weighted average interest rate of 4.64% per annum and $439.7 million of variable rate debt, or 39.3% of mortgage loan payables, at a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.47% per annum. As of December 31, 2014, we had 54 fixed rate and 12 variable rate mortgage loans with effective interest rates ranging from 1.76% to 6.58% per annum, and a weighted average effective interest rate of 4.53% per annum. As of December 31, 2014, we had $763.8 million ($755.6 million, excluding premium) of fixed rate debt, or 74.8% of mortgage loan payables, at a weighted average interest rate of 5.22% per annum and $257.9 million of variable rate debt, or 25.2% of mortgage loan payables, at a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.52% per annum.

During the third quarter of 2015, we refinanced 21 separate mortgage loans. The aggregate balance of the new mortgage loan payables was $457.9 million as of September 30, 2015. The new mortgage loan payables have a 7-year term maturing August 1, 2022 and accrues interest at either a (i) fixed rate equal to 4.20% or (ii) floating rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 2.61%. We purchased interest rate caps for each of these floating rate loans, which are not designated as hedges. We used the remaining net proceeds from the refinancings primarily to redeem a portion of our Series D Preferred Stock and our Series E Preferred Stock and to pay a portion of the unsecured notes payable to affiliates, as discussed below. Of the $20.0 million of loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment, $15.9 million relates to yield maintenance prepayment penalties for the repayment of the mortgage debt paid and the write-off of the unamortized portion of deferred financing costs and above/below market debt for certain of the refinancings.

We are required by the terms of certain loan documents to meet certain financial covenants, including leverage and liquidity tests, and comply with certain financial reporting requirements. We are in compliance and expect to remain in compliance with all covenants for the next 12 months.

Most of the mortgage loan payables may be prepaid in whole but not in part, subject to applicable prepayment premiums and the terms of certain tax protection agreements to which we are a party. As of September 30, 2015, 32 of our mortgage loan payables had monthly interest-only payments, while 26 of our mortgage loan payables had monthly principal and interest payments.

Secured Credit Facility

The secured facility with Bank of America, N.A. and certain other lenders, or the Secured Credit Facility, is in the aggregate maximum principal amount of $180.0 million and the amount available is based on the lesser of the following: (i) the aggregate commitments of all lenders and (ii) a percentage of the appraised value for all properties. As of September 30, 2015, we had $156.9 million outstanding under the Secured Credit Facility and 13 of our properties were pledged as collateral. As of September 30, 2015, $14.1 million is currently available under the Secured Credit Facility, which is subject to compliance with applicable collateral requirements. We currently do not expect to borrow any additional amounts prior to its maturity on January 4, 2016.

On March 24, 2015, the Secured Credit Facility was amended to, among other things: (i) extend the maturity date to January 4, 2016; (ii) amend certain covenants including the consolidated funded indebtedness to total asset value ratio and the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio; and (iii) waive existing events of default, including the failure to comply with the consolidated funded indebtedness to total asset value ratio for the quarters ended September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014. As amended, the Secured Credit Facility includes certain financial covenants, including (i) a consolidated leverage ratio which requires that consolidated funded indebtedness may not exceed, as of the end of any quarter, 75% of total asset value and (ii) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, which, as of the end of any quarter shall not be less than 1.05:1.00. As of September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all such requirements. We expect to remain in compliance with all covenants through the maturity date.

Pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement governing the terms of the Secured Credit Facility, we and certain of our indirect subsidiaries guaranteed all of the obligations of our operating partnership and each other guarantor under the credit agreement and the related loan documents. From time to time, the operating partnership may cause additional subsidiaries to become guarantors under the credit agreement.

All borrowings under the Secured Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to, at our option, (i) the highest of (A) the federal funds rate, plus one-half of 1% and a margin that fluctuates based on our debt yield, (B) the rate of interest as publicly announced from time to time by Bank of America, N.A. as its prime rate, plus a margin that fluctuates based on our debt yield or (C) the Eurodollar Rate for a one-month interest period plus 1% and a margin that fluctuates based upon our debt yield or (ii) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus a margin that fluctuates based upon our debt yield. As of September 30, 2015, our annual interest rate was 3.44% on principal outstanding of $156.9 million, which represents the Eurodollar Rate, based on a one-month interest period plus a margin of 3.25%.

Line of Credit

On January 22, 2014, we entered into an agreement with Bank Hapoalim, as lender, for a revolving line of credit, or our revolving line of credit, in the aggregate principal amount of up to $10.0 million to be used for our working capital and general corporate purposes. Our revolving line of credit, which was originally scheduled to mature on January 22, 2015, was extended until March 6, 2015 and further extended until March 31, 2015. On March 24, 2015, the revolving line of credit was further amended to extend the maturity date to January 4, 2016 and amend certain covenants. As amended, the revolving line of credit includes certain financial covenants, including (i) a consolidated leverage ratio which requires that consolidated funded indebtedness may not exceed, as of the end of any quarter, 75% of total asset value, (ii) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, which as of the end of any quarter shall not be less than 1.05:1.00 and (iii) a funds from operations, or FFO, covenant which requires us to achieve FFO of at least $1.00 in each fiscal year. We are in compliance and expect to continue to remain in compliance with all covenants through the maturity date. We have pledged $1.5 million in cash and equity interest in certain of our subsidiaries as collateral, which is recorded in restricted cash on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of September 30, 2015, we had $9.9 million outstanding under our revolving line of credit with $100,000 available to be drawn.

Between May 2013 and October 2014, as part of the earnout consideration in connection with the ELRM Transaction, we also issued to ELRH II unsecured promissory notes, of which an aggregate principal amount of $616,000, remains outstanding as of September 30, 2015. The unsecured notes payable to affiliates matures on the earliest of the fifth anniversary from the applicable date of issuance or the date of our company’s initial public offering on a national securities exchange. Simple interest is payable monthly or can be accrued until maturity at an annual rate of 3.00% at our option.

Deferred Financing Cost, Net

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had $13.6 million and $10.7 million, respectively, in deferred financing costs, net of accumulated amortization of $10.4 million for each such period which not only includes amortization but is also net of additions and write-offs. Deferred financing costs, net, are included in other assets, net, on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Amortization expense recorded on the deferred financing costs for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $1.1 million and $1.8 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $4.0 million and $5.2 million, respectively.

8.    Preferred Stock and Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

Series D Preferred Stock

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had outstanding an aggregate of 7,628,285 shares and 20,976,300 shares, respectively, of our Series D Preferred Stock, to iStar Apartment Holdings LLC, or iStar, and BREDS II Q Landmark LLC, or BREDS, issued at $10.00 per share, for an aggregate amount of $76.3 million and $209.8 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we redeemed 13,348,015 shares of the Series D Preferred Stock and paid all accrued interest related to those shares to iStar and BREDS, using net proceeds from property dispositions and mortgage refinancings. In connection with these partial redemptions, we recorded $1.5 million for the prepayment premiums paid and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs which is recorded in loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends of 14.47% per annum, compounded monthly. A portion of the cumulative cash dividend, or the Series D Current Dividend, is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series D Preferred Stock. On March 1, 2015, the Series D Current Dividend increased from 8.75% to 11% per annum compounded monthly. We may, however, elect to pay up to the full amount of accrued dividends on each dividend payment date. Our failure to pay in full, in cash, any Series D Current Dividend on any applicable payment date will constitute an event of default, which could result in the dividend rate being increased to 19.97% per annum, of which 11% per annum compounded monthly will be due as the Series D Current Dividend on the 15th of each month. Series D Preferred Stock dividends are recorded as preferred dividends classified as interest expense in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we incurred $5.0 million and $8.1 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we incurred $20.8 million and $23.7 million, respectively, of preferred dividends classified as interest expense related to the Series D Preferred Stock.

We are required to redeem all outstanding shares of the Series D Preferred Stock on June 28, 2016, subject to additional one-year extensions upon satisfaction of certain conditions, for a cash payment to the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock in an amount per share equal to $10.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends due under the governing documents. Based on the requirement of redemption for cash, the Series D Preferred Stock is classified as a liability in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Failure to redeem the Series D Preferred Stock by any mandatory redemption date (as extended) will trigger increases in dividends due under the governing documents. If an event of default occurs on our mortgage loan payables, the Secured Credit Facility or other indebtedness and is continuing after an applicable cure period, there will then be an event of default on the Series D Preferred Stock. In addition, in connection with a change of control, the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock have the option to require that we redeem all of the shares outstanding.

In addition, in the event of a triggering event as defined in the Series D Preferred Stock agreements, including a public offering of the company’s common stock, we are obligated to redeem not less than 50% of the shares of the Series D Preferred

Stock then outstanding, to the extent sufficient proceeds are raised. This redemption feature met the requirements to be accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. We measured the fair value of this derivative at the issuance date and recorded a liability for approximately $13.5 million with a corresponding discount recorded to the value of the Series D Preferred Stock. The Series D Preferred Stock discount is accreted to its face value through the redemption date as interest expense. The Series D Preferred Stock and the derivative liability are presented together in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as Series D cumulative non-convertible redeemable preferred stock in the amount of $72.4 million and $202.4 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Interest expense recorded for the accretion of the Series D Preferred Stock discount for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $1.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $3.5 million and $3.1 million, respectively.

The derivative was recorded at fair value for each reporting period, with changes in fair value being recorded through change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we recorded a decrease in the fair value of the derivative of $3.4 million and $8.2 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2014, this derivative had no fair value. As of February 28, 2015, the derivative expired.

The proceeds from the sale of the Series E Preferred Stock were used primarily to acquire and renovate additional properties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we redeemed 4,708,898 shares of the Series E Preferred Stock and paid all accrued interest related to those shares to iStar and BREDS, using net proceeds from property dispositions and mortgage refinancings. In connection with these partial redemptions, we recorded $1.3 million for the prepayment premiums paid and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs which is recorded in loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

Holders of our Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends of 14.47% per annum, compounded monthly. A portion of the cumulative cash dividend, or the Series E Current Dividend, is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series E Preferred Stock. On October 1, 2015, the Series E Current Dividend increased from 9.25% to 11.25% per annum compounded monthly. We may, however, elect to pay up to the full amount of accrued dividends on each dividend payment date. Our failure to pay in full, in cash, any Series E Current Dividend on any applicable payment date will constitute an event of default, which could result in the dividend rate being increased to 19.97% per annum, of which 11% per annum compounded monthly will be due as the Series E Current Dividend on the 15th of each month. Series E Preferred Stock dividends are recorded as preferred dividends classified as interest expense in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we incurred $1.6 million and 2.8 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we incurred $7.1 million and $7.6 million, respectively, of preferred dividends classified as interest expense related to the Series E Preferred Stock.

We are required to redeem all outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock on June 28, 2016, subject to additional one-year extensions upon satisfaction of certain conditions, for a cash payment to the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock in an amount per share equal to $10.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends due pursuant to the Series E Preferred Stock governing documents. Based on the requirement of redemption for cash, the Series E Preferred Stock is classified as a liability in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Failure to redeem the Series E Preferred Stock by any mandatory redemption date (as extended) will trigger increases in dividends due under the Series E Preferred Stock governing documents. If an event of default occurs on our mortgage loan payables, the Secured Credit Facility or other indebtedness and is continuing after an applicable cure period, there will then be an event of default on the Series E Preferred Stock. In addition, in connection with a change of control, the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock have the option to require that we redeem all of the shares outstanding.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS- (Continued)

In addition, in the event of a triggering event as described in the Series E Preferred Stock agreements, including a public offering of the company’s common stock, we are obligated to redeem not less than 50% of the shares of the Series E Preferred Stock then outstanding, to the extent sufficient proceeds are raised, at a certain premium. This redemption feature meets the requirements to be accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. We measured the fair value of this derivative at the issuance date and recorded a liability for approximately $6.0 million with a corresponding discount recorded to the value of the Series E Preferred Stock. The Series E Preferred Stock discount is accreted to its face value through the redemption date as interest expense. Interest expense recorded for the accretion of the Series E Preferred Stock discount for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $619,000 and $542,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $1.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

The derivative is recorded at fair value for each reporting period, with changes in fair value being recorded through change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of this derivative was $0 and $1.4 million, respectively, and the decrease in fair value for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $40,000 and $1.3 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the decrease in the fair value was $1.4 million and $2.7 million, respectively. As of September 7, 2015, the derivative expired. The Series E Preferred Stock, the derivative liability and the fair value of the derivative are presented together in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as Series E cumulative non-convertible redeemable preferred stock with derivative in the amount of $24.9 million and $71.6 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. See Note 13, Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments, for further discussion of our fair valuation on a recurring basis.

Summary of Rights of Series D Preferred and Series E Preferred Stock

The Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock rank senior to our common stock with respect to, among other things, distribution rights, redemption rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company. In addition to other preferential rights, upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, each holder of Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock is entitled to receive liquidating distributions in cash of certain expenses in an amount equal to $10.00 per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends due under the agreement, before any distribution or payment is made to the holders of our company’s common stock.  Also, pursuant to the protective provisions of the governing documents designating the Series D Preferred Stock, or the Series D Preferred Stock agreements, and Series E Preferred Stock, or the Series E Preferred Stock agreements, we may not, without the prior written consent of iStar and BREDS, take certain corporate actions, including, but not limited to, amending our charter or bylaws or entering into material contracts. In addition, under the terms of the Series D Preferred Stock agreements and Series E Preferred Stock agreements, we are required to use any net proceeds from the sale of our properties or loan refinancings to redeem a portion of the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock.

Holders of the shares of our Series D Preferred Stock and our Series E Preferred Stock vote together as a single class for the election of the iStar director and the BREDS director. In addition, subject to certain limitations, holders of the shares of our Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock will vote together as a single class with the holders of our company’s common stock on any matter presented to the common stockholders for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders or, to the extent permitted, by written consent in lieu of a meeting.  Subject to certain limitations, each holder of outstanding shares of our Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the quotient, rounded down to the nearest whole number of votes, obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate liquidation preference of the shares of Preferred Stock held by such holder as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter by (B) the book value per share (each as defined in our charter).  Effectively, the holders of the shares of our Series D Preferred Stock and our Series E Preferred Stock could account for a quorum at any meeting of our company’s shareholders and, to the extent such holders, voted their respective shares in the same manner, such holders could effectively control the outcome of any matter submitted to the shareholders for approval.

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

In connection with prior issuances of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock, which were redeemed on June 28, 2013, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of $60.0 million in shares of our common stock at an exercise price per share of common stock equal to: (i) $9.00 if the warrants are being exercised in connection with a “change of control” (as such term is defined in the form of warrant); or (ii) the greater of $9.00 and 80% of the public offering price of our

common stock in our first underwritten public offering, in conjunction with which our common stock is listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange if the warrants are being exercised during the 60-day period following such underwritten public offering. The warrants remained outstanding subsequent to the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock and will become exercisable at any time and from time to time prior to their expiration following the completion of an underwritten public offering and in connection with a change of control. The warrants issued on August 3, 2012 for $50.0 million worth of common stock expired on August 3, 2015, leaving warrants issued on February 27, 2013 for $10.0 million worth of common stock outstanding. In general, the remaining February 27, 2013 warrants will immediately expire and cease to be exercisable upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the close of business on February 27, 2016; (ii) the close of business on the date that is 60 days after the completion of the underwritten public offering (or the next succeeding business day); (iii) the consummation of a “Qualified Company Acquisition” (as such term is defined in the form of warrant); and (iv) the cancellation of the warrants by our company, at its option or at the option of the warrant holder, in connection with a change of control (other than a Qualified Company Acquisition).

We measured the fair value of the warrants as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 resulting in our recording $0 and $663,000, respectively, reflected in security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrants are recorded at fair value for each reporting period with changes in fair value being recorded in change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recorded a decrease in the fair value of the warrants of $71,000 and an increase of $37,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recorded a decrease in the fair value of $663,000 and $1.2 million, respectively. See Note 13, Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments, for further discussion of our fair valuation on a recurring basis. 

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The company and certain of its affiliates were named as defendants in a fifth amended complaint filed on August 6, 2015 in the Superior Court of Orange County, California, styled Paul D. Bernstein et al. v. NNN Realty Investors, LLC et al., alleging that the company, our operating partnership, ROC REIT Advisors, LLC, or our former advisor, Mr. Olander, our CEO, president and interim CAO, and Mr. Remppies, our COO, participated in fraudulent transfers of assets from an affiliate of Grubb & Ellis Company, thereby preventing such affiliate from satisfying contractual obligations to certain trusts in which plaintiffs invested.  The plaintiffs seek damages and injunctive relief setting aside these alleged transfers.  The company believes that the plaintiffs' claims are without merit and intends to defend the matter vigorously. We have not accrued any amount for the possible outcome of this litigation because management does not believe that a material loss is probable or estimable at this time.

In addition to the foregoing, we are subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. We cannot determine the ultimate liability with respect to such legal proceedings and claims at this time. We believe that such liability, to the extent not provided for through insurance or otherwise, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental Matters

It is our policy not to purchase any property unless and until we obtain an environmental assessment, which consists of, at a minimum, a Phase I review, and generally are satisfied with the environmental condition of the property, as determined by our management. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist at our properties, we are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to our properties that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Further, we are not aware of any material environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.

Acquisition Contingent Consideration

ELRM Transaction

We incurred certain contingent consideration in connection with the ELRM Transaction which was consummated during the first quarter of 2013. In consideration for the contribution to our operating partnership of ELRH’s economic rights to earn property management fees for managing certain real estate assets of the Timbercreek Fund, our operating partnership agreed to

16

LANDMARK APARTMENT TRUST, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS- (Continued)

issue up to $10.0 million in restricted limited partnership interests, or OP units, to ELRH. Additionally, ELRH and certain of its affiliates had the opportunity to earn additional consideration in the form of restricted OP units and a promissory note through a contingent consideration arrangement, which was based on two events: (i) projected fees that we would earn in connection with new property management agreements for properties that may be acquired by ELRH and certain of its affiliates and (ii) funds raised at certain target dates to acquire properties in the Timbercreek Fund. As of December 31, 2014, all potential earnout opportunities available to the ELRM Parties or otherwise pursuant to the ELRM Transaction had been satisfied.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we determined that there was no fair value of the acquisition contingent consideration. There was a decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration of $0 and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, which is recorded in change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. See Note 13, Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments, for further discussion of our fair valuation of assets and liabilities on a recurring basis.

Landmark at Andros Isles

On June 4, 2014, we completed the acquisition of Landmark at Andros Isles, which included acquisition contingent consideration with an initial estimated fair value of $2.7 million. The acquisition contingent consideration was based on a calculation of future net operating income (which included the payment of principal and interest on the mortgage loan payable as defined in the definitive agreements) over the four-year period subsequent to the acquisition, with a total payout not to exceed $4.0 million. There was no change in fair value for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

As of December 31, 2014, the estimated fair value of the acquisition contingent consideration was $2.9 million. During the first quarter of 2015, we recorded an increase in the fair value of $100,000 and on May 5, 2015, we settled the acquisition contingent consideration that was due in connection with the Landmark at Andros Isles acquisition for aggregate consideration of $3.9 million, of which $3.5 million was paid in cash and $400,000 was paid by issuing shares of our common stock at a per share value of $8.15. The remaining adjustment in the fair value of the acquisition contingent consideration of $900,000 was recorded in the second quarter of 2015. As of September 30, 2015, there is no remaining acquisition contingent consideration opportunity related to this acquisition. The change in fair value was recorded to the change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. See Note 13, Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments, for further discussion of our fair valuation on a recurring basis.

See Note 10, Related Party Transactions, for further discussion regarding the acquisition contingent consideration.

Support Payment Agreement

On December 20, 2013, we issued to ELRH II 1,226,994 shares of common stock in connection with (i) our acquisition of the Class A Units in Timbercreek Holding for $5.0 million and (ii) the initial pay down of $5.0 million of the ELRM Note.  In order for ELRH II to ensure it would receive equivalent value to the cash it would have received under the ELRM Note and for the acquisition of the Class A Units, the Company entered into a support payment agreement with ELRH II, which agreement contains a price support mechanism. When the shares are no longer restricted, ELRH II is obligated, for a period of ten business days, to use commercially reasonable efforts to sell the shares at a price above $8.15 per share. In the event that ELRH II is not successful in selling the shares, ELRH II may give notice whereupon we have the option to either (i) issue additional shares of our common stock with a value that is equal to the difference between $8.15 per share multiplied by the 1,226,994 shares and the actual gross selling price received by ELRH II upon the sale of the shares or (ii) repurchase the shares for $8.15 per share in cash. If ELRH II fails to dispose of the shares as described above, our obligation to make the support payment will terminate. In the event a public offering and a listing of our capital stock, or an IPO, does not take place before March 14, 2018, we may call or ELRH II may put the shares to us and we would be obligated to repurchase the shares for $8.15 per share in cash. Based on our expectation to enter into a merger agreement to be acquired and the consequential unlikelihood of an IPO occurring, we determined that the support payment obligation had no value as of September 30, 2015. The support payment agreement was insignificant as of December 31, 2014.

10. Related Party Transactions

The transactions listed below cannot be construed to be at arm’s length and the results of our operations may be different than if such transactions were conducted with non-related parties.

ELRH

ELRH previously paid to us the direct costs of certain employees that performed services on their behalf. As of December 31, 2014, we no longer had employees performing services on behalf of ELRH, therefore, this reimbursement arrangement ended as of such date. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we were reimbursed $148,000 and $697,000, respectively, by ELRH.

Timbercreek U.S. Multi-Residential Opportunity Fund #1

As part of the ELRM Transaction, we acquired the rights to earn property management fees and back-end participation for managing certain real estate assets acquired by the Timbercreek Fund. Also, during the period from the closing date of the ELRM Transaction and ending on the date that is 18 months thereafter, we had a commitment to purchase 500,000 Class A Units in Timbercreek Holding for consideration in the amount of $5.0 million. On December 20, 2013, we purchased the 500,000 Class A Units in Timbercreek Holding for consideration in the amount of $5.0 million, consisting of the issuance of 613,497 shares of our common stock, thereby becoming a limited partner in Timbercreek Holding. Timbercreek Holding is a limited partner in the Timbercreek Fund. Messrs. Olander and Remppies serve on the Investment Committee of the Timbercreek Fund. The Timbercreek Fund is fully invested, no longer raising capital, and the sole purpose of its investment committee is to make capital decisions regarding the properties and to oversee future dispositions of assets.  

OP Units Issued

As of September 30, 2015, we had issued 30,968,047 OP units, among other issuances, with an aggregate value of $252.4 million to our related parties. Such OP units were issued, directly or indirectly, to entities affiliated with Messrs. Salkind and Israeli, two members of our board, and Mr. Edward Kobel, our chairman, in connection with the acquisition of various properties and the ELRM Transaction. During the third quarter of 2015, 20,029 OP units, valued at $8.15 per OP unit, were forfeited by ELRH II, an entity affiliated with Messrs. Salkind and Israeli, in connection with the sale of one of our managed third party properties and in accordance with the terms of the ELRM Transaction documents.

Tax Protection Agreements

We have entered into tax protection agreements with entities affiliated with Messrs. Salkind, Israeli and Kobel, or the Tax Protected Parties, who contributed certain multifamily apartment communities in connection with our acquisitions during the years ended 2014, 2013 and 2012. Pursuant to these agreements, our operating partnership has agreed, among other things, to indemnify the Tax Protected Parties against certain taxes incurred by them upon a sale, exchange or other disposition of the tax protected properties during a specified restricted period, or Tax Protection Period, plus an additional amount equal to the taxes incurred by the tax protected parties as a result of the indemnification payments. We have 31 tax protection agreements.  Subject to the terms thereof, each tax protection agreement provides tax protection for a term of seven years commencing on the date of closing of the contribution of the applicable contributed property.  Each year until expiration the Company’s tax protection obligation is reduced on a pro rata basis, or 1/7th annually. 

Other

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had $0 and $1.6 million outstanding, respectively, which were recorded in other receivables due from affiliates in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts outstanding represented amounts due from our managed properties owned by affiliated third parties as part of the normal operations of our property manager, which primarily consisted of management fee receivables.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had $140,000 and $117,000, respectively, which were recorded in other payables due to affiliates in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts outstanding represented payables due to our managed properties owned by affiliated third parties as part of the normal operations of our property manager.

11. Equity

Preferred Stock

Our charter authorizes us to issue 50,000,000 shares of our preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had issued and outstanding (i) 7,628,285 and 20,976,300 shares, respectively, of Series D Preferred Stock and (ii) 2,691,102 and 7,400,000 shares, respectively, of Series E Preferred Stock. See Note 8, Preferred Stock and Warrants to Purchase Common Stock.

Common Stock

Our charter authorizes us to issue up to 300,000,000 shares of our common stock. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had 27,410,432 and 25,628,526 shares, respectively, of our common stock issued and outstanding.

The following are the equity transactions with respect to our common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2015:

• 127,494 shares of common stock were issued pursuant to the DRIP (as defined below).

• 49,080 shares of common stock issued to DK Gateway Andros II LLC, in relation to the settlement of the Landmark at Andros Isles contingent consideration.

• 1,605,332 shares of common stock issued to certain of our limited partners, in response to a redemption request and pursuant to the terms of our operating partnership's limited partnership agreement, in exchange for an equal number of OP units.

Our distributions are subject to approval by our board. Our common stock distributions as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was equivalent to $0.30 per share per annum for each period then ended.

We report earnings (loss) per share pursuant to ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share attributable for all periods presented are computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to shares of our common stock for the period by the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding during the period using the two class method. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common shares for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the two-class method. Unvested shares of our restricted common stock give rise to potentially dilutive shares of our common stock. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were 143,587 and 192,316 shares, respectively, of unvested shares of our restricted common stock outstanding, but such shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because such shares were anti-dilutive during these periods. The long-term investment plan units, or LTIP Units, could potentially dilute the basic earnings per share in future periods but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented. Further, the warrants were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share and also would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

In the first quarter of 2011, our board adopted the Second Amended and Restated Dividend Reinvestment Plan, or DRIP. The DRIP provides a way to increase stockholders' investment in our company by reinvesting distributions to purchase additional shares of our common stock. The DRIP offers up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock for reinvestment. Distributions are reinvested in shares of our common stock at a price equal to the most recently disclosed per share value, as determined by our board.

Since August 2012, we have made a series of acquisitions and issued common stock or common stock equivalents, or equivalents, at $8.15 per share. This price was determined to be a fair value based on negotiated transactions with advice from professionals. Accordingly, $8.15 is the per share price used for the issuance of shares pursuant to the DRIP until such time as our board provides a new estimate of share value. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, $1.0 million in distributions were reinvested and 127,494 shares of our common stock were issued pursuant to the DRIP. Effective July 1, 2015, we suspended the DRIP, as determined by our board.

OP Units

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had outstanding 38,379,646 and 41,446,746 OP units, respectively, issued to our non-controlling interest holders for consideration of $312.8 million and $337.8 million, respectively,

19

LANDMARK APARTMENT TRUST, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS- (Continued)

in relation to the acquisition of properties and the ELRM Transaction. The OP units issued as part of the ELRM Transaction are restricted and will vest in equal amounts over a period of five years, subject to certain accelerated vesting and cancellation provisions. See Note 12, Non-Controlling Interests, for additional information on our OP units.

LTIP Units

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had issued 1,016,619 and 647,908 LTIP Units, respectively, under the 2012 Award Plan (as defined below), respectively, to certain of our executive officers as incentive compensation. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recognized compensation expense of $145,000 and $174,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recognized compensation expense of $922,000 and $1.3 million, respectively, related to the LTIP Units issued and outstanding. LTIP Unit compensation expense is included in general, administrative and other expense in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there was $1.3 million and $0, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested LTIP Units.

2006 Incentive Award Plan

We adopted our 2006 Award Plan (as amended and restated from time to time) pursuant to which our board or a committee of our independent directors may make grants of options, restricted common stock awards, stock purchase rights, stock appreciation rights or other awards to our independent directors, employees and consultants. The maximum number of shares of our common stock or equivalents that may be issued pursuant to our 2006 Award Plan, together with the number of shares of common stock or equivalents issued under the 2012 Award Plan (as defined below), is an aggregate total of 2,000,000, subject to adjustment under specified circumstances.

Shares of restricted common stock may not be sold, transferred, exchanged, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered. Such restrictions expire upon vesting. Any unvested shares will vest immediately upon a change of control (as defined in the 2012 Award Plan). Shares of restricted common stock have full voting rights and rights to dividends. For each of the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recognized compensation expense of $100,000, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recognized compensation expense of $297,000 and $268,000, respectively, related to the restricted common stock grants ultimately expected to vest, which has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. ASC Topic 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Stock compensation expense is included in general, administrative and other expense in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there was $1.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to the unvested shares of our restricted common stock. As of September 30, 2015, this expense is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 2.58 years.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of the unvested shares of our restricted common stock was $1.2 million and $1.6 million, respectively, based upon $8.15 at grant date. A summary of the status of the unvested shares of our restricted common stock as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and the changes for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, is presented below:

	Restricted Common Stock		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Balance - December 31, 2014	192,316		$	8.18

2012 Other Equity-Based Award Plan

During 2012, our board adopted our 2012 Award Plan, which is intended to assist our company and our affiliates in recruiting and retaining individuals and other service providers with ability and initiative by enabling such persons or entities to participate in the future success of the company and its affiliates and to associate their interests with those of the company and its stockholders. The 2012 Award Plan is also intended to complement the purposes and objectives of the 2006 Award Plan through the grant of “other equity-based awards” under the 2012 Award Plan. Pursuant to the 2012 Award Plan, our board or our compensation committee may make grants of other equity-based awards to our independent directors, employees and certain consultants. Other equity-based awards are payable in cash, shares of common stock or other equity, or a combination thereof, and the terms and conditions of such other equity-based awards are determined by our board or our compensation committee, as applicable. The maximum aggregate number of shares of our common stock or equivalents that may be issued under the 2012 Award Plan, together with the number of shares of common stock or equivalents issued under the 2006 Award Plan, is an aggregate total of 2,000,000 shares, subject to adjustment under specified circumstances.

401(k) Savings Plan

We have a 401(k) savings plan, which is a voluntary defined contribution plan. Under the savings plan, every employee is eligible to participate, beginning on the date the employee has completed two months of continuous service with us. Each participant may make contributions to the savings plan by means of a pre-tax salary deferral, which may not be less than 1% or more than 85% of the participant’s compensation, subject to limitations under the federal tax code on the annual amount of salary deferrals which may be made by any participant. The company may make discretionary matching contributions on the participant’s behalf up to a predetermined limit, which was 40% of salary deferrals for the first 5% of eligible compensation. The matching contribution made for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, was $48,000 and $39,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 it was $136,000 and $92,000, respectively. A participant’s salary deferral and the company's matched portion is 100% vested and nonforfeitable. Any administrative expenses under the savings plan that were paid by us were not significant for all periods presented.

Non-Controlling Interest Partners

Non-controlling interest partners represents interests of our joint venture partners in six consolidated properties as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and is presented as part of equity in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the amount of non-controlling interest of our partners was $26.2 million and $26.7 million, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we had net income attributable to non-controlling interest partners of $342,000 and $58,000, respectively.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we had net (income)/loss attributable to non-controlling interest partners of $(839,000) and $1.3 million, respectively.

13. Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments

ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the face of the balance sheet. Fair value is defined under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

We consider the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables due from affiliates, restricted cash, real estate and escrow deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and other payables due to affiliates to approximate fair value for these financial instruments because of the short period of time between origination of the instruments and their expected realization.

Interest Rate Caps and Interest Rate Swaps

We manage our interest rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative transactions for trading or other speculative purposes. The interest rate derivatives that we primarily use are interest rate caps and interest rate swaps. We enter into these interest rate derivative transactions to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on variable rate mortgage loans. We assess the effectiveness of qualifying cash flow hedges both at inception and on an on-going basis. The fair values of the hedging derivatives and non-designated derivatives that are in an asset position are recorded in other assets, net on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of derivatives that are in a liability position are included in security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of September 30, 2015, we had entered into 13 interest rate cap agreements. An interest rate cap involves the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an upfront premium. The fair value of our rate cap agreement is determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if the variable interest rate rises above the strike rate of the cap and is a Level 2 fair value calculation. These derivatives are not designated by us to be a hedge instrument, and the change in fair value is recorded to interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the change in fair value resulted in an increase to interest expense of $314,000 and $22,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the change in fair value resulted in an increase to interest expense of $513,000 and $327,000, respectively.

As of September 30, 2015, we had entered into two interest rate swap agreements pursuant to which we have agreed to pay a fixed rate of interest in exchange for a floating rate of interest at a future date and have designated one of these as a hedging derivative and one as a non-designated hedge. The fair value of our swap agreements is determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rate rises above or below the strike rate of the future floating rate and is a Level 2 fair value calculation. On July 23, 2015, we closed one of our hedged interest rate swap agreements in relation to the repayment in full of the related mortgage loan payable using the proceeds from refinancing the mortgage.

For the one interest rate swap that we have determined qualifies as an effective cash flow hedge, we have recorded the effective portion of cumulative changes in the fair value of the hedging derivative in accumulated other comprehensive operations in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of equity. Amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive operations will be reclassified into earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged cash flow. To adjust the hedging derivatives in qualifying cash flow hedges to their fair value and recognize the impact of hedge accounting, we recorded $(201,000) and $240,000 in other comprehensive (income)/loss for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and

2014, respectively, and $(178,000) and $(447,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. One interest rate swap is not intended by us to be a hedge instrument and the change in fair value is recorded to interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the change in fair value was a decrease to interest expense of $138,000 and $504,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, a decrease to interest expense of $312,000 and $134,000, respectively.

The fair value of the Legacy Unsecured Note is based on a benchmark index from the limited partnership unit distributions dividend rate; therefore, we consider the fair value of the Legacy Unsecured Note to be equal to the carrying value. The Legacy Unsecured Note was paid in full on May 28, 2015.

(5) The fair value of the Series E Preferred Stock derivative, which relates to the mandatory redemption of 50% of the Series E Preferred Stock outstanding as of the date of a triggering event as described in the Series E Preferred Stock agreements for a premium, is determined using a modeling technique based on significant unobservable inputs calculated using a probability-weighted approach. Significant inputs include the expected timing of a triggering event, the expected timing of additional issuances of Series E Preferred Stock, and the discount rate.

14. Business Combinations

2015 Property Acquisitions

We did not complete any acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

2014 Property Acquisitions

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we completed the acquisition of 14 consolidated properties, including six properties held through consolidated joint ventures, adding a total of 5,099 apartment units to our property portfolio. The aggregate purchase price was approximately $406.4 million, plus closing costs and acquisition fees of $2.2 million, which are included in acquisition-related expenses in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

Results of operations for the property acquisitions are reflected in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 for the period subsequent to the acquisition dates.

The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have been obtained had these transactions occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, nor are they necessarily indicative of future operating results.

15. Restructuring and Impairment Charges

In late 2014, our audit committee initiated an investigation into certain operational and financial matters and engaged outside advisors to assist it in connection with the investigation. Upon consideration of the work conducted in the audit committee’s investigation and other factors, our board, upon the recommendation of the audit committee, determined to negotiate and enter into separation agreements with three former executives. In conjunction with this, our board approved a shift in strategic direction of our company subsequent to the determination to enter into separation agreements with our three former executive officers. This shift is geared toward a focus on the long term equity capitalization of the company, an overall corporate expense reduction, and a reduction of our third party property management business. The plan is being accomplished via reassignment of internal operational duties, reduction in staff, elimination of a prior executive office, transferring of 11 of our 16 third party managed properties to affiliates of their owners (which occurred on April 1, 2015), changes in personnel, and the elimination of a focus on certain financing activities that were determined to not be in the best long term interests of our shareholders. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we sold our equity interest in two of our managed equity

properties while two of our managed equity investment properties and one of our managed third party properties were sold by their owners and, since September 30, 2015, another one of our managed third party properties was sold by its owner and, therefore, we no longer manage all of those properties. Based on the reduction of future economic benefits, we determined that our goodwill should be further impaired.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded $8.0 million in charges directly attributable to these changes in restructuring and impairment charges in our consolidated statement of comprehensive operations. Of the $8.0 million in restructuring and impairment charges that we expensed, $2.0 million remained in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2014. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded $544,000 and $2.2 million of restructuring and impairment charges, respectively, in which $48,000 and $510,000, respectively, related to additional accounting and legal fees in conjunction with restructuring and the remainder related to an impairment of goodwill in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we paid $611,000 for legal fees, $1,105,000 for severance and $357,000 of other accruals, leaving a remaining balance of $437,000 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2015, which will be paid in full by February 2016.

16. Subsequent Events

Agreement and Plan of Merger

On October 22, 2015, we entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger, or the Merger Agreement, to be acquired by Monument Partners, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, or the Parent, an affiliate of Starwood Capital Group, and Milestone Apartments Real Estate Investment Trust, a Canadian real estate investment trust, for a purchase price of $8.17 in cash per share of our common stock or OP unit, respectively, without interest, or the Merger Consideration.

• following the Partnership Merger, we will merge with and into REIT Merger Sub, with REIT Merger Sub surviving as a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent; this transaction is referred to herein as the REIT Merger and, together with the Partnership Merger, as the Mergers.

At the effective time of the Partnership Merger, or the Partnership Merger Effective Time, each OP unit issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time (other than those held by us, Parent or an affiliate of Parent) will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $8.17, without interest, referred to herein as the Partnership per Share Merger Consideration.

Merger Consideration

At the effective time of the REIT Merger, or the REIT Merger Effective Time, each share of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the REIT Merger Effective Time (other than those held by any wholly-owned subsidiary of us or Parent) will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $8.17, without interest, referred to herein as the REIT Per Share Merger Consideration.

27

Redemption of Preferred Shares

At the closing of the Mergers, each share of our Series D Preferred Stock and our Series E Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the REIT Merger Effective Time will be redeemed by us for a redemption price as determined in accordance with the Articles Supplementary designating the terms of the Preferred Stock.

Treatment of Equity Awards

Immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time, all LTIP units of our operating partnership will be fully vested (whether or not then vested or subject to any performance condition or any condition related to the book-up of the capital account associated with the LTIP Units that has not been satisfied), and will be considered to be outstanding OP units and subject to the right to receive the Partnership Per Share Merger Consideration (less applicable withholding taxes) at the Partnership Merger Effective Time.

Immediately prior to the REIT Merger Effective Time, each restricted share of our common stock will be fully vested (whether or not then vested or subject to any performance condition that has not been satisfied), and all shares of our common stock represented thereby will be considered outstanding and subject to the right to receive the REIT Per Share Merger Consideration (less applicable withholding taxes) at the REIT Merger Effective Time.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

The Merger Agreement contains certain customary representations, warranties and covenants, including, among others, covenants by us to conduct our business in all material respects in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, subject to certain exceptions, during the period between signing and closing of the Mergers and covenants prohibiting us and our subsidiaries and representatives, from soliciting, providing information or entering into discussions concerning proposals relating to alternative business combination transactions, subject to certain limited exceptions.

Closing Conditions

The consummation of the Mergers is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among others:

• approval of the Partnership Merger and the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the company, in our capacity as the general partner of our operating partnership;

• approval of the REIT Merger and the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock and preferred stock as of the record date for the special meeting of our stockholders, voting together as a single class;

• the absence of a material adverse effect on either us or Parent; and

• the receipt by Parent of a tax opinion relating to our REIT status.

The obligations of the parties to consummate the Mergers are not subject to any financing condition or the receipt of any financing by Parent, REIT Merger Sub or Partnership Merger Sub.

Termination Rights

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both us and Parent. Under specified circumstances, we are entitled to terminate the Merger Agreement to accept a superior business combination proposal. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement to enter into a superior business combination proposal, or under certain other specified circumstances, we will be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $20.0 million. In certain circumstances where the Merger Agreement has been terminated but we are not required to pay a termination fee, we will be required to reimburse Parent for up to $5.0 million of expenses incurred in connection with the transaction (although if the termination fee later becomes payable, amounts reimbursed by us will be credited against the termination fee payable). In connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement by us or Parent under certain specified circumstances, Parent will be required to pay the company a termination fee of $50.0 million.

28

Voting Agreements

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, certain of the holders of our common stock, and all of our directors and officers who hold our common stock, collectively referred to herein as the Covered Stockholders, in their capacities as stockholders of the company, entered into voting agreements with Parent, or the Voting Agreements. Pursuant to their respective Voting Agreement, each of the Covered Stockholders, who collectively have the power to vote approximately 18.8% of the shares of our common stock outstanding as of October 19, 2015, has agreed to vote all shares of our common stock beneficially owned by it in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement and against any alternative proposal or any other action that is reasonably likely to adversely affect or interfere with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

In addition, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the holders of our preferred stock entered into voting agreements with Parent, or the Preferred Stockholder Voting Agreements. Pursuant to their respective Preferred Stock Voting Agreement, each of the holders of our preferred stock has agreed to vote its shares of preferred stock in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement in proportion to the number of votes of our common stock voted in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement and to vote against any alternative proposal or any other action that is reasonably likely to adversely affect or interfere with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement in proportion to the number of votes of our common stock voted against such proposals or actions. The holders of the preferred stock have also agreed not to (i) solicit, provide information or enter into discussions concerning proposals relating to alternative business combination transactions, or (ii) solicit proxies, recommend or advise others to vote against the adoption of the Merger Agreement or indicate support or approval for any alternative business combination transaction.

Tax Protection Waivers

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, some of the limited partners of our operating partnership with tax protection agreements executed waivers of their tax protection rights in connection with, and conditioned upon, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Redemption of OP Units

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Landmark Apartment Trust, Inc.

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Landmark Apartment Trust, Inc. as of September 30, 2015, and the related condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the condensed consolidated statement of equity for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Landmark Apartment Trust, Inc. as of December 31, 2014, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive operations, equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein) and we expressed an unqualified audit opinion on those consolidated financial statements in our report dated March 24, 2015. In our opinion, the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Landmark Apartment Trust, Inc. as of December 31, 2014, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

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

The use of the words “we,” “us,” “our company,” or “our” refers to Landmark Apartment Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Landmark Apartment Trust Holdings, LP, except where the context otherwise requires.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto and other financial information that are a part of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and information have been prepared to reflect our financial position as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, together with our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Forward-Looking Statements

Historical results and trends should not be taken as indicative of future operations. Some of our statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements. We intend those forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and we are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “expect,” “project,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “predict,” “potential” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations, our financial statements and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: the availability of financing and the attractiveness of its terms; changes in economic conditions generally and the real estate market specifically; changes in interest rates; competition in the real estate industry generally and the apartment community sub-industry specifically; the supply and demand for operating properties in our target market areas; legislative and regulatory changes, including changes to laws governing the taxation of REITs; and changes in GAAP, or in policies and guidelines applicable to REITs. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Additional information concerning us and our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC. While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. We disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, of new information, data or methods, future events or other changes.

Overview and Background

Landmark Apartment Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was incorporated on December 21, 2005. We are self-administered and self-managed, and we conduct substantially all of our operations through our operating partnership, Landmark Apartment Trust Holdings, LP. We are in the business of acquiring, holding and managing a diverse portfolio of quality properties with stable cash flows and growth potential primarily in the Sunbelt region. We may acquire and have acquired other real estate-related investments. We focus primarily on investments that produce current income. We have qualified and elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code for federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2006. We intend to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT.

Between July 19, 2006 and July 17, 2011, we raised a total of $187.1 million in connection with our continuous offering of shares of our common stock. On February 24, 2011, our board adopted the DRIP, which was effective as of March 11, 2011. The DRIP is designed to offer our existing stockholders a simple and convenient method of purchasing additional shares of our common stock by reinvesting cash distributions. The DRIP offers up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock for reinvestment for a maximum offering of up to $95.0 million. Pursuant to the DRIP, distributions are reinvested in shares of our common stock at a price equal to the most recently disclosed per share value, as determined by our board. Effective as of August 3, 2012, our board determined the fair value of our common stock is $8.15 per share. Accordingly, $8.15 is the per share price used for the purchases of shares pursuant to the DRIP until such time as our board provides a new estimate of share value. Effective July 1, 2015, we suspended the DRIP, as determined by our board.

On March 7, 2013, we entered into a credit agreement, or the Credit Agreement, to obtain the Secured Credit Facility, in the original principal amount of $130.0 million, with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and Citibank, as syndicated agent, and the lenders and guarantors party thereto. Subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Credit

31

Agreement, we increased the potential original principal amount under the Secured Credit Facility by an additional $50.0 million, therefore, the maximum principal amount was $180.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2014. On March 24, 2015, the Secured Credit Facility was further amended to, among other things: (i) extend the maturity date to January 4, 2016, (ii) amend certain covenants including the consolidated funded indebtedness to total asset value ratio and the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, and (iii) waive existing events of default including failure to comply with the consolidated funded indebtedness to total asset value ratio for the quarter ended December 31, 2014. As of September 30, 2015, we had $156.9 million outstanding under the Secured Credit Facility and 13 of our properties were pledged as collateral. Although $14.1 million is currently available under the Secured Credit Facility, based on the maximum draw of $165.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2014, subject to compliance with applicable collateral requirements, we currently do not expect to borrow any additional amounts prior to its maturity on January 4, 2016.

On June 28, 2013, we entered into a series of definitive agreements pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell for cash to iStar and BREDS, shares of our Series D Preferred Stock. Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends of 14.47% per annum, compounded monthly. On March 1, 2015, the cumulative cash distribution, which is payable in cash on the 15th of each month, increased from 8.75% to 11% per annum compounded monthly. The remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series D Preferred Stock. At December 31, 2014, we had issued and outstanding a total of 20,976,300 shares of the Series D Preferred Stock. During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, we redeemed 13,348,015 shares of the Series D Preferred Stock using proceeds from the sales of apartment communities during 2014 and 2015, and proceeds from the refinancing of mortgage loan payables during the second and third quarter of 2015. As of September 30, 2015, we had 7,628,285 shares outstanding of our Series D Preferred Stock, at a price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate of $76.3 million. In the event of a public listing of our common stock, we would be obligated to redeem no less than 50% of the Series D Preferred Stock outstanding, to the extent sufficient proceeds are raised. In addition, in connection with a change of control, the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock have the option to require that we redeem all of the shares outstanding.

On January 7, 2014, we entered into a series of definitive agreements pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell for cash to iStar and BREDS shares of our Series E Preferred Stock. Holders of our Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends of 14.47% per annum, compounded monthly. A portion of the cumulative cash distribution is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series E Preferred Stock. On October 1, 2015, the cumulative cash distribution increased from 9.25% to 11.25% per annum compounded monthly. At December 31, 2014 we had issued and outstanding a total of 7,400,000 shares of the Series E Preferred Stock. During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, we redeemed 4,708,898 shares of the Series E Preferred Stock using proceeds from the sales of apartment communities during 2014 and 2015, and proceeds from the refinancing of mortgage loan payables during the second and third quarter of 2015. As of September 30, 2015, we had 2,691,102 shares outstanding of Series E Preferred Stock, at a price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate of $26.9 million. In the event of a public listing of our common stock, we would be obligated to redeem no less than 50% of the Series E Preferred Stock outstanding, to the extent sufficient proceeds are raised. In addition, in connection with a change of control, the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock have the option to require that we redeem all of the shares outstanding.

As of September 30, 2015, we consolidated 72 apartment communities, including six apartment communities held through consolidated joint ventures, with an aggregate of 21,796 apartment units, which had an aggregate gross carrying value of $1.7 billion. We refer to these apartment communities as our consolidated properties.

In addition to our consolidated properties, as of September 30, 2015, we managed and held minority interests in six managed equity investment properties, all of which are owned by the Timbercreek Fund, in which we own an indirect minority interest through our investment in Timbercreek Holding. Timbercreek Holding is a limited partner in the Timbercreek Fund. We refer to these six apartment communities as our managed equity investment properties which have an aggregate of 1,991 apartment units at September 30, 2015. As of September 30, 2015, we managed an additional four apartment communities, consisting of a total of 1,134 apartment units that are owned by one or more third parties, including certain entities affiliated with ELRH, which we refer to as our managed third party properties. Since September 30, 2015, one of these managed third party properties was sold and we no longer manage the property.

All of our consolidated and managed properties are managed by LATPM, LLC, or our property manager.

Critical Accounting Policies

The complete listing of our critical accounting policies was previously disclosed in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2015. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as disclosed therein.

Interim Unaudited Financial Data

Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with GAAP in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, our accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in our view, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year; such full year results may be less favorable. Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2015.

Acquisitions

For information regarding our acquisitions, see Note 3, Real Estate Investments and Note 14, Business Combinations, to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Factors Which May Influence Results of Operations and Cash Flows

We are not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, other than national economic conditions affecting real estate generally, that may reasonably be expected to have a material impact, favorable or unfavorable, on revenues or income from the acquisition, management and operation of properties other than those Risk Factors previously disclosed in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2015.

Rental Income

The amount of rental income and operating cash flows generated by our consolidated properties depends principally on our ability to maintain the occupancy rates of currently leased space and to lease currently available space and space available from unscheduled lease terminations at the then-existing market rental rates. Negative trends in one or more of these factors, as well as a negative trend in overall market rental rates, could adversely affect our rental income, results of operations and operating cash flows in future periods. In addition, over time, our acquisitions and dispositions of our consolidated properties will have a corresponding impact on rental income and operating cash flows.

Management Fee Income

The amount of management fee income generated by our property manager depends on our ability to maintain and increase the property management contracts with the third parties and increase the property management fees if possible. If we purchase one of our managed properties from a third party, then management fee income would decrease but would be offset by any rental income received. The amount of management fee income generated by our property manager also depends on our third parties’ ability to maintain the occupancy rates of currently leased space and to lease currently available space and space available from available lease terminations at the then-existing market rental rates. Negative trends in one or more of these factors, as well as a negative trend in overall market rental rates, could adversely affect our management fee income in future periods. Since January 1, 2015, (i) the owners transferred property management obligations with respect to, or sold, 13 of the 16 managed third party properties that we managed as of December 31, 2014, and (ii) four of our managed equity investment properties were sold and thus we no longer manage such properties. Due to these factors, we expect our management fee income and related expenses in future years to decrease.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and related laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and disclosure requirements applicable to public companies, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, have increased the costs of compliance with corporate governance, reporting and disclosure practices, portions of which are now required of us. These costs may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows and could impact our ability to continue to pay distributions at current rates to our stockholders. Furthermore, we expect that these costs will increase in the future due to our continuing implementation of compliance programs mandated by these requirements. Any increased costs may affect our ability to distribute funds to our stockholders.

Preferred Stock

Holders of shares of our Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative distributions of 14.47% per annum based upon a $10.00 per share value. A portion of the cumulative cash distribution equal to 11% per annum is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series D Preferred Stock.

Holders of shares of our Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative distributions of 14.47% per annum based upon a $10.00 per share value. A portion of the cumulative cash distribution equal to 9.25% per annum is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series E Preferred Stock. On October 1, 2015, the cumulative cash distribution increased from 9.25% to 11.25% per annum compounded monthly.

Proposed Acquisition by Monument Partners, L.L.C.

On October 22, 2015, we entered into the Merger Agreement to be acquired by Parent, an affiliate of Starwood Capital Group, and Milestone Apartments Real Estate Investment Trust, a Canadian real estate investment trust, for a Merger Consideration of $8.17 in cash per share of our common stock or OP unit, respectively, without interest. The Mergers are expected to close in the first quarter of 2016.

The Merger Agreement, by and among us, our operating partnership, Parent, REIT Merger Sub and Partnership Merger Sub provides that:

• Partnership Merger Sub will merge with and into our operating partnership, with our operating partnership surviving as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent; and

• following the Partnership Merger, we will merge with and into REIT Merger Sub, with REIT Merger Sub surviving as a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

At the Partnership Merger Effective Time, each OP unit issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time (other than those held by us, Parent or an affiliate of Parent) will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $8.17, without interest, referred to herein as the Partnership Per Share Merger Consideration.

The consummation of the Mergers is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among others:

• approval of the Partnership Merger and the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the company, in our capacity as the general partner of our operating partnership;

• approval of the REIT Merger and the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock and preferred stock as of the record date for the special meeting of our stockholders, voting together as a single class;

• the absence of a material adverse effect on either us or Parent; and

• the receipt by Parent of a tax opinion relating to our REIT status.

The obligations of the parties to consummate the Mergers are not subject to any financing condition or the receipt of any financing by Parent, REIT Merger Sub or Partnership Merger Sub.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both us and Parent. Under specified circumstances, we are entitled to terminate the Merger Agreement to accept a superior business combination proposal. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement to enter into a superior business combination proposal, or under certain other specified circumstances, we will be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $20.0 million. In certain circumstances where the Merger Agreement has been terminated but we are not required to pay a termination fee, we will be required to reimburse Parent for up to $5.0 million of expenses incurred in connection with the transaction (although if the termination fee later becomes payable, amounts

35

reimbursed by us will be credited against the termination fee payable). In connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement by us or Parent under certain specified circumstances, Parent will be required to pay us a termination fee of $50.0 million.

Results of Operations

Our continuing operating results are primarily comprised of income derived from our portfolio of properties and, to a lesser degree, from our income derived by our property manager in connection with management services performed for properties owned by affiliated third parties.

Changes in our rental revenue and rental expenses were related to our operating properties and are primarily due to the change in the total number of our consolidated properties owned and the performance of our same store properties and non-mature properties in the portfolio (as defined below). Rental revenue includes rental income and other property revenues, which consist primarily of utility re-billings as well as administrative, application and other fees charged to residents, including amounts recorded in connection with early lease terminations. As of September 30, 2015, we consolidated 72 properties, including six properties held through consolidated joint ventures. As of September 30, 2014, we consolidated a total of 78 properties, including seven properties held through consolidated joint ventures.

Our recent operating strategy has included purchasing slightly older properties with lower rental rates and renovating them, in an effort to give us the ability to begin to raise rates at a faster pace than the overall market. In addition, we also believe that the economic and demographic characteristics of the geographic locations in which we own properties are favorable for increasing rental rates in the near term. This strategy allows us to offer housing in our growth-oriented markets to more qualified renters within our markets. Although these newly-acquired properties may be older than typical properties, we believe they are well located and maintained and simply allow us to broaden our base of potential renters over a broader income demographic spectrum within our identified target markets.

The following table presents the average occupancy and the average monthly income per occupied unit for our consolidated properties, for the three and nine months ended September 30, in each respective year:    

	Three Months Ended September 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015	2014	2015	2014
Average Occupancy %	95.6%	93.5%	95.4%	94.2%
Average Revenue per Occupied Unit (1)	$982	$910	$960	$882

(1) Average revenue per occupied unit is calculated by taking the total revenue for the quarter or nine months divided by the number of months in the period, multiplied by the average occupancy during the same time period.

The following tables present the rental revenue, rental expenses and net operating income, or NOI, for each of the periods presented (in thousands):

Same Store Properties

Our same store properties represent 59 of our consolidated properties that were either acquired or leased prior to January 1, 2014 and held on September 30, 2015.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 vs. Three Months Ended September 30, 2014

Same store property NOI increased $2.3 million, or 9.5%, for the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 2014. Same store rental revenues increased by $3.9 million, or 8.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 2014 driven by an increase in market rental rates and an increase in the average occupancy rate during the time period. Same store rental expenses increased by $1.7 million, or a lesser percent of 8.2%, for the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 2014. Rental expenses as a percentage of rental revenue decreased from 46.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2014 to 45.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 due primarily to cost savings in our advertising and leasing expense and improved bad debt collection.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 vs. Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014

Same store property NOI increased $7.4 million, or 10.4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 2014. Same store rental revenues increased by $11.1 million, or 8.6%, for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 as compared to 2014. The increase in rental revenues was driven by an increase in market rental rates and an increase in the average occupancy percent for the time period. Same store rental expenses increased by $3.7 million, or a lesser percent of

37

6.4%, for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 as compared to 2014. Rental expenses as a percentage of rental revenue decreased from 45.5% for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2014 to 44.6% for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 due primarily to cost savings in our advertising and leasing expense and improved bad debt collection.

Non-Mature Properties

Our non-mature properties consist of our consolidated properties that do not meet the criteria to be included in same store properties, which includes our newly-acquired properties and/or properties that were sold during the reporting period.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 vs. Three Months Ended September 30, 2014

Our non-mature property rental revenues decreased by $3.5 million, or 19.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 2014. Our non-mature property rental expenses decreased by $318,000, or 3.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 2014. Our decreases in rental revenues and rental expenses are primarily driven by the timing of the fluctuation in the number of properties we acquired or disposed of during those periods. The majority of our current consolidated portfolio had been acquired by January 1, 2014 and was therefore included in our same store sales.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 vs. Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014

Our non-mature property revenues decreased by $4.5 million, or 8.7%, for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 as compared to 2014. Our non-mature property rental expenses decreased by $475,000, or 1.9%, for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 as compared to 2014. Our decreases in rental revenues and rental expenses are primarily driven by the timing of the fluctuation in the number of properties we acquired or disposed of during those periods.

Management Fee Income

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, our management fee income was $493,000 and $917,000, respectively, and for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 and 2014, our management fee income was $2.0 million and $3.2 million, respectively. We provide property management services for affiliated and non-affiliated third party property owners. During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, (i) the owners transferred property management obligations with respect to, or sold, 12 of the 16 managed third party properties that we managed as of December 31, 2014, and (ii) four of our managed equity investment properties were sold and thus we no longer manage such properties. In addition, one managed third party property was sold by its owner subsequent to September 30, 2015 and we no longer manage the property. Due to these factors, we expect our management fee income in future years to decrease.

Reimbursed Income/Expense

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, reimbursed income and expense was $1.5 million and $3.8 million, respectively, and for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 and 2014, reimbursed income and expense was $6.4 million and $9.8 million, respectively. Our property manager served as a property manager for 10 and 26 properties owned by third parties, including certain affiliates, as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Reimbursed expense represents the salaries and benefits for the management of such properties and the property insurance of such properties reimbursed to us by the affiliated and unaffiliated third parties. The actual reimbursement is recorded as reimbursed income. As noted above, during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, (i) the third party property owners transferred property management obligations with respect to, or sold, 12 of the 16 managed third party properties that we managed, and (ii) four of our managed equity investment properties were sold and thus we no longer manage such properties, which has resulted in a further decrease in reimbursed income and reimbursed expense. One additional managed third party property was sold by its owner subsequent to September 30, 2015 and we no longer manage the property.

General, Administrative and Other Expense

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, general, administrative and other expense was $6.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively, and for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 and 2014, general, administrative and other expense was $17.9 million and $18.2 million, respectively. General, administrative and other expense consisted of the following for the periods then ended (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
Recurring expense	$	2,330	$	3,332	$	7,087	$	7,758
Non-recurring / discretionary expense	1,756		1,177		3,915		3,696
Property management expense - consolidated properties	1,260		1,251		3,910		3,634
Property management expense - managed properties	1,117		685		3,036		3,126
Total general, administrative and other expense	$	6,463	$	6,445	$	17,948	$	18,214

Property management expense reflects the management services expense of our property manager for our owned, leased and third-party managed properties. Non-recurring general, administrative and other expenses reflect those expenses that we consider one-time or discretionary expenses. Recurring general, administrative and other expenses reflect those expenses that will continue on an ongoing basis.

General, administrative and other expense were relatively unchanged for the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2014. For the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 and 2014, general, administrative and other expense had a slight decrease of $266,000 which was primarily due to a decrease in consulting expenses.

Change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration

The change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration is due to our financial instruments, which includes acquisition contingent consideration for the ELRM Transaction, warrants, Series D Preferred Stock derivative, Series E Preferred Stock derivative, and acquisition contingent consideration for Landmark at Andros Isles. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we had decreases in the fair value of our financial instruments of $451,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, primarily due to the decrease in our warrants and Series E Preferred Stock derivative due to the expected timing and probability of triggering events which was offset by an increase in the acquisition contingent consideration for Landmark at Andros Isles recognized in the second quarter of 2015, which has been fully settled.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we had decreases in the fair value of our financial instruments of $4.7 million and $15.9 million, respectively, primarily due to the expected timing of triggering events.

Acquisition-Related Expenses

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded a reduction of $(10,000) for a refund of previous fees paid and an expense of $88,000 related to the termination of a potential transaction, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we incurred $200,000 and $2.2 million, respectively, of acquisition-related expenses associated with the 14 properties (including six properties we purchased through consolidated joint ventures) purchased during the period.

Depreciation and Amortization

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, depreciation and amortization was $16.4 million and $18.7 million, respectively, and for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 and 2014, depreciation and amortization was $50.8 million and $74.3 million, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, depreciation and amortization decreased by $2.3 million and $23.5 million, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, primarily due to in-place leases becoming fully amortized.

39

Write-off of Deferred Initial Public Offering Costs

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we wrote-off $4.8 million of deferred IPO costs that were incurred and initially deferred related to the costs of the company preparing for an IPO. Since we have determined at this time not to proceed with an IPO, these costs have been expensed in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

Restructuring and Impairment Charges

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, restructuring and impairment charges were $544,000 and $2.2 million, respectively, primarily related to the impairment of goodwill of $1.7 million due to the reduction of future economic benefits related to four of our managed equity investment properties being sold and one of our managed third party properties being sold by its owners. The remainder includes additional accounting and legal fees incurred during those periods related to the restructuring. We did not incur restructuring and impairment charges during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Interest Expense, Net

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, interest expense, net was $15.7 million and $15.6 million, respectively, and for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 and 2014, interest expense, net was $46.4 million and $47.2 million, respectively.

The increase in interest expense, net of $101,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to 2014, is primarily due to the addition of 13 new interest rate cap agreements during the second and third quarter of 2015 in connection with mortgage refinancings and fully amortizing above and below market debt in the prior year, partially offset by the reduction of the interest on the mortgage loans associated with the dispositions of properties during that time period. The decrease of $760,000 for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 as compared to 2014, was primarily due to the reduction of the interest on the mortgage loans associated with the dispositions of five consolidated properties during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, partially offset by an increase in interest related to the secured credit facility and the revolving line of credit due to increased borrowings for those time periods.

Preferred Dividends Classified as Interest Expense

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, preferred dividends classified as interest expense was $6.6 million and $10.9 million, respectively, and for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015 and 2014, preferred dividends classified as interest expense was $27.9 million and $31.3 million, respectively.

The decrease in preferred dividends classified as interest expense of $4.3 million and $3.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, as compared to three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, is due to the partial redemptions of the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock during such time periods.

(Loss)/Gain on Sale of Operating Properties

During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, we sold five consolidated properties, Avondale by the Lakes on March 5, 2015, Landmark at Savoy Square on March 26, 2015, Courtyards on the River on April 30, 2015, Landmark at Magnolia Glen on May 28, 2015, and Landmark at Deerfield Glen on August 27, 2015, for a combined sales price of $135.3 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded a loss on the sale of Landmark at Deerfield Glen property of $1.6 million, and during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, our net gain on the sale of the consolidated properties was $4.2 million, which included an expense of $1.7 million for a tax penalty incurred during the first quarter of 2015 for a prior year disposition.

We sold three consolidated properties and recognized a gain on sale of operating properties of $487,000 and $7.5 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Income/(Loss) and Gain on Sale from Unconsolidated Entities

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recognized income from unconsolidated entities of $25,000 and $3.1 million, respectively, related to our non-controlling interest in two joint ventures, which owned two managed equity investment properties and the activity related to the Timbercreek Fund. On June 24, 2015, we sold our 20% equity interest in the two joint ventures and recognized a gain on the sale of such unconsolidated entities of $3.0 million. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we recognized income/(loss) of $38,000 and $(1.1) million, respectively, related to our non-controlling interest in two joint ventures, which owned two managed equity investment properties and the

40

activity related to the Timbercreek Fund. The increase in income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, was primarily due to intangible assets being fully amortized in 2014 and the equity investment dispositions.

Loss on Debt and Preferred Stock Extinguishment

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recognized a loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment of $15.3 million and $20.0 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, in connection with the disposition of one consolidated property, we recorded $305,000 of loss for the write-off of the unamortized portions of deferred financing costs and above/below market debt and $1.4 million of expense due to the prepayment premiums paid and the write-off of the unamortized portions of deferred financing costs in connection with the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock partial redemptions. In addition, we paid a yield maintenance prepayment penalty and wrote-off the unamortized portions of deferred financing costs and above/below market debt related to our mortgage refinancings of $13.7 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, in connection with the dispositions of five consolidated properties, we recorded $1.3 million in a yield maintenance prepayment penalty and the write-off of the unamortized portions of deferred financing costs and above/below market debt and $2.8 million due to the prepayment premiums paid and the write-off of unamortized portions of deferred financing costs in connection with the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock redemptions. In addition, we paid a yield maintenance prepayment penalty and the write-off of the unamortized portions of deferred financing costs and above/below market debt related to mortgage refinancings of $15.9 million.

We incurred no loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Income Tax (Expense)/Benefit

Due to the history of losses incurred by our property manager, it is expected that any future net deferred tax assets will be offset by a valuation allowance until such time, if ever, that the property manager establishes a pattern of profitability. In the quarter ended June 30, 2014, we determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized due to losses incurred by the property manager and recorded a valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. Accordingly, an income tax expense of $388,000 and $165,000 was recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, an income tax expense of $99,000 and $396,000, respectively, was recognized, which was all related to state income tax expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Generally, our sources of funds will primarily include cash generated from operations, additional borrowings, refinancing existing loans and the issuance of equity securities. We believe that these cash resources will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the foreseeable future, and we do not anticipate a need to raise funds from other than these sources within the next 12 months. Due to the significant debt maturities coming due in the next 12 months, we are exploring opportunities to extend, refinance or raise funds to repay each of these instruments prior to their respective maturities. If we are unable to refinance such existing debt or otherwise raise new funds to replace such existing capital resources, or if we are unable to do so on favorable terms, such inability could have a materially adverse effect upon us.

We are dependent upon our income from operations and other sources of funding, as noted above, to provide capital required to meet our principal demands for funds, including operating expenses, principal and interest due on our outstanding indebtedness and preferred shares outstanding, and distributions to our stockholders and OP unit holders. We estimate that we will require approximately $43.0 million to pay interest and $232.1 million to pay principal on our outstanding indebtedness, including the maturing Secured Credit Facility (see discussion below on extension of the Secured Credit Facility), the revolving line of credit, and unsecured indebtedness in the next 12 months, based on rates in effect as of September 30, 2015.

We are required by the terms of the applicable mortgage loan documents, the Secured Credit Facility and the revolving line of credit to comply with various covenants, including certain financial covenants, such as leverage and liquidity tests, and financial reporting requirements. See “– Financing” below.

As of September 30, 2015, we had $156.9 million outstanding under the Secured Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2015, $14.1 million is currently available under the Secured Credit Facility, which is subject to compliance with applicable collateral requirements. We currently do not expect to borrow any additional amounts prior to its maturity on January 4, 2016. As amended, the Secured Credit Facility includes certain financial covenants, including (i) a consolidated leverage ratio which requires that consolidated funded indebtedness may not exceed, as of the end of any quarter, 75% of total asset value and (ii) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, which, as of the end of any quarter shall not be less than 1.05:1.00. As of

41

September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all such requirements. We expect to remain in compliance with all covenants until maturity. We have 13 of our properties pledged as collateral and as of September 30, 2015, our annual interest rate was 3.44%, which represents the Eurodollar Rate, based on a one-month interest period plus a margin of 3.25%.

On January 22, 2014, we entered into an agreement with Bank Hapoalim to extend to us a revolving line of credit in the aggregate principal amount of up to $10.0 million to be used for working capital and general corporate uses which matures on January 4, 2016. The revolving line of credit includes certain financial covenants, including (i) a consolidated leverage ratio which requires that consolidated funded indebtedness may not exceed as of the end of each quarter, 75% of total asset value, (ii) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, which as of the end of any quarter shall not be less than 1.05:1.00 and (iii) an FFO covenant, which requires the company to achieve FFO of at least $1.00 in each fiscal year. As of September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all such requirements. We expect to remain in compliance with all covenants until maturity. We have pledged $1.5 million in cash and equity interest in certain of our subsidiaries as collateral. As of September 30, 2015, we had $9.9 million outstanding under our revolving line of credit with $100,000 available to be drawn. Our revolving line of credit bears an annual interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a 3.25% margin. As of September 30, 2015, our annual interest rate was 3.44%.

As of September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all covenants and ratios on our outstanding indebtedness. We expect to remain in compliance with all covenants for the next 12 months. If we are unable to obtain financing in the future, it may have a material effect on our financial condition, operating results, liquidity and capital resources and/or our ability to continue making dividend payments to our stockholders and OP unit holders.

In connection with our property acquisitions, we generally prepare a capital plan that contemplates the estimated capital needs of that investment. In addition to operating expenses, capital needs may also include costs of refurbishment or other major capital expenditures. The capital plan will also set forth the anticipated sources of the necessary capital, which may include a line of credit or other loans established with respect to the investment, operating cash generated by the investment, additional equity investments from us or our joint venture partners or, when necessary, capital reserves. To the extent not otherwise required to be used to redeem our Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, any capital reserve would be established from the proceeds from sales of other investments, operating cash generated by other investments or other cash on hand. In some cases, a lender may require us to establish capital reserves for a particular investment. The capital plan for each investment will be adjusted through ongoing, regular reviews of our portfolio or as necessary to respond to unanticipated additional capital needs.

As of December 31, 2014, we had issued and outstanding an aggregate of 20,976,300 in shares of our Series D Preferred Stock to iStar and BREDS for an aggregate amount of $209.8 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we redeemed 13,348,015 shares of the Series D Preferred Stock and paid all accrued interest related to those shares to iStar and BREDS, using funds from property sales and mortgage refinancings. Subsequent to the partial redemptions and as of September 30, 2015, 7,628,285 shares of the Series D Preferred Stock remained outstanding for an aggregate of $76.3 million.

In the event of a public listing of our common stock, we are obligated to redeem no less than 50% of the Series D Preferred Stock outstanding, to the extent sufficient capital is raised. Series D Preferred Stock dividends are recorded as preferred dividends classified as interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we incurred $5.0 million and $20.8 million, respectively, related to the Series D Preferred Stock. On March 1, 2015, the cumulative cash distribution increased from 8.75% to 11% per annum compounded monthly resulting in an increase to our cash interest paid.

As of December 31, 2014, we had issued and outstanding an aggregate of 7,400,000 shares of our Series E Preferred Stock to iStar and BREDS for an aggregate amount of $74.0 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 we redeemed 4,708,898 shares of the Series E Preferred Stock and paid all accrued interest related to those shares to iStar and BREDS, using funds from property sales and mortgage refinancings. Subsequent to the partial redemptions and as of September 30, 2015, 2,691,102 shares of our Series E Preferred Stock remained outstanding for an aggregate of $26.9 million.

In the event of a public listing of our common stock prior, we are obligated to redeem no less than 50% of the Series E Preferred Stock outstanding, to the extent sufficient capital is raised. Series E Preferred Stock dividends are recorded as preferred dividends classified as interest expense in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we incurred preferred dividends classified as interest expense of $1.6 million and $7.1 million, respectively, related to our Series E Preferred Stock. On October 1, 2015, the cumulative cash distribution increased from 9.25% to 11.25% per annum compounded monthly resulting in an increase to our cash interest paid.

42

Also, pursuant to the protective provisions of the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock agreements, we may not, without the prior written consent of iStar and BREDS, take certain corporate actions, including, but not limited to, amending our charter or bylaws or entering into material contracts. In addition, under the terms of the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock agreements, we are required to use any proceeds from a capital transaction, defined to include among other things, the sale of our properties or other investments or loan refinancings, to redeem all or a portion of the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock. Also, in connection with a change of control, the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock have the option to require that we redeem all of the shares outstanding.

Other Liquidity Needs

In the event that there is a shortfall in net cash available due to various factors, including, without limitation, the timing of distributions or the timing of the collections of receivables, we may seek to obtain capital to pay distributions to our common stockholders by means of secured or unsecured debt financing through one or more third parties. Subject to certain provisions of the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock and under our debt instruments, including our Secured Credit Facility and the revolving line of credit, there currently are no limits or restrictions on the use of borrowings that would prohibit us from making the proceeds available for distribution up to the current annual dividend rate applicable to common stockholders and OP unit holders.

As of September 30, 2015, we estimated that our expenditures for capital improvements will require approximately $6.6 million for the remainder of the year. As of September 30, 2015, we had $4.2 million of restricted cash in loan impounds and reserve accounts for such capital expenditures and are required by the majority of our debt agreements to continue to add amounts to our loan impounds and reserve accounts on a monthly basis. Any capital expenditures in excess of amounts in our loan impounds and reserve accounts will be paid with net cash from operations, third party capital, or we may choose to not proceed with certain non-mandatory projects. We cannot provide assurance, however, that we will not exceed these estimated expenditure levels or be able to obtain additional sources of financing on commercially favorable terms or at all to fund such expenditures.

If we experience lower occupancy levels, reduced rental rates, reduced revenues as a result of asset sales or increased capital expenditures and leasing costs compared to historical levels due to competitive market conditions for new and renewal leases, the effect would be a reduction of net cash provided by operating activities. If such a reduction of net cash provided by operating activities is realized, we may have a cash flow deficit in subsequent periods. Our estimate of net cash available is based on various assumptions, which are difficult to predict, including the levels of leasing activity and related leasing costs. Any changes in these assumptions could impact our financial results and our ability to fund working capital requirements, pay distributions to our stockholders, service our indebtedness and meet any unanticipated cash needs.

Cash Flows

Operating Activities

Cash flows provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were $9.4 million, compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $16.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cash flows provided by operating activities primarily related to the operations of our 72 consolidated properties during such period, which was partially offset by a decrease in operating liabilities of $4.5 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, cash flow from operations primarily related to the operations of our 78 consolidated properties.

Investing Activities

Cash flows provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were $70.9 million compared to cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 of $127.8 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cash flows provided by investing activities related to proceeds from the sale of five consolidated properties of $66.3 million, the return of investment from our unconsolidated entities of $9.4 million, and the change in restricted cash for capital replacement reserves of $4.7 million, offset by capital expenditures of $9.5 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, cash flows used in investing activities related to the acquisition of our properties of $131.0 million and capital expenditures of $22.4 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of operating properties of $17.5 million, the change in deposits on real estate acquisitions of $2.5 million and the change in restricted cash for capital replacement reserves of $4.9 million.

43

Financing Activities

Cash flows used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were $75.0 million, compared to cash flows provided by financing activities of $111.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cash flows used in financing activities related primarily to $435.0 million of payments on our mortgage loan payables, $180.6 million of payments to redeem preferred stock, payments of deferred financing costs of $11.4 million, payments of prepayment premiums of $18.7 million, the repurchase of OP units in the amount of $11.8 million, distributions paid to our common stockholders, OP unit holders, LTIP holders and non-controlling interest partners in the aggregate amount of $15.7 million, principal payments on our unsecured notes payable to affiliates of $5.5 million, the settlement of acquisition contingent consideration of $2.9 million, and principal payments on the Secured Credit Facility of $2.3 million, partially offset by proceeds from mortgage loan payables of $602.9 million and proceeds from the revolving line of credit of $6.0 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, cash flows provided by financing activities related primarily to the proceeds from the issuance of redeemable preferred stock of $74.0 million, proceeds from mortgage loan payables of $41.1 million, borrowings on the Secured Credit Facility of $19.2 million and net proceeds from the revolving line of credit of $3.9 million. This was offset by $8.7 million of payments on our mortgage loan payables, payments for deferred financing costs of $3.2 million, and distributions to our common stockholders OP unit holders, LTIP holders and non-controlling interest partners in the aggregate amount of $14.7 million.

Distributions

Common Stock

The amount of any distributions we pay to our common stockholders is determined by our board and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for the payment of distributions, our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our status as a REIT under the Code. We have not established any limit on the amount of offering proceeds or borrowings that may be used to fund distributions, except that, in accordance with our organizational documents and Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (1) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or (2) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences. Furthermore, we are restricted, under our Secured Credit Facility and revolving line of credit, subject to certain exceptions, from declaring or paying any distributions (or setting aside any funds for the payment of distributions) on our common stock unless full cumulative distributions on the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock have been declared and either paid or set aside for payment in full for all past distributions periods.

Our board approved the distribution rate to be an amount equal to a 3.00% annualized rate based upon a purchase price of $10.00 per share, and a 3.68% annualized rate, based upon our most recent estimated value of our shares of $8.15 per share. Our board authorizes distributions based on month-end record dates, which we pay monthly in arrears. Our distribution rate, if any, and payment frequency may vary from time to time. We have reduced our distribution rate in the past and may fail to pay distributions at the anticipated level, or at all, in the future. Effective July 1, 2015, we suspended the DRIP, as determined by our board.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we paid aggregate distributions of $5.8 million ($4.8 million in cash and $1.0 million of which was reinvested in shares of our common stock pursuant to the DRIP), as compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $9.4 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we paid aggregate distributions of $5.7 million ($4.2 million in cash and $1.5 million of which was reinvested in shares of our common stock pursuant to the DRIP), as compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $16.7 million. From our inception through September 30, 2015, we paid cumulative distributions of approximately $65.9 million ($42.5 million in cash and $23.4 million of which was reinvested in shares of our common stock pursuant to the DRIP), as compared to cumulative cash flows provided by operating activities of $46.8 million. The cumulative distributions paid in excess of our cash flows provided by operating activities were paid primarily from net proceeds from our public offerings of common stock. Our distributions of amounts in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits have resulted in a return of capital to our stockholders.

OP Units

The operating partnership agreement provides that our operating partnership will distribute to the partners (subject to certain limitations) cash from operations on a quarterly basis (or more frequently, if we so elect) in accordance with the percentage interests of the partners. We, as the general partner of our operating partnership, will determine the amounts of such

44

distributions in our sole discretion. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we paid aggregate distributions of $9.2 million in cash to holders of OP units in our operating partnership. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we paid aggregate distributions of $9.0 million ($8.7 million in cash and $244,000 of which was reinvested in OP units) to holders of OP units in our operating partnership. Distributions accrue at month-end and are payable monthly in arrears. OP unit distributions were paid at a rate of $0.025 per unit, which is equal to the distribution rate paid to the common stockholders. The distribution rights of the holders of OP units in our operating partnership are subject to the rights, preferences and priorities with respect to distributions to holders of preferred partnership units.

LTIP Units

The LTIP Units rank pari passu with the OP units as to the payment of distributions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we paid aggregate distributions of $199,000 and $173,000, respectively, to holders of our LTIP Units. Distributions were paid at a rate of $0.025 per unit, which is equal to the distribution rate paid to the common stockholders. Distributions accrue at month-end and are payable monthly in arrears.

Preferred Stock

Holders of shares of our Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative distributions of 14.47% per annum based upon a $10.00 per share value. A portion of the cumulative cash distribution is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series D Preferred Stock. On March 1, 2015, the cumulative cash distribution increased from 8.75% to 11% per annum compounded monthly. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we paid $28.1 million and $14.0 million, respectively, to holders of the Series D Preferred Stock. The aggregate accumulated distributions accrued but not paid to holders of the Series D Preferred Stock as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, were approximately $9.0 million and $16.3 million, respectively.

Holders of shares of our Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative distributions of 14.47% per annum based upon a $10.00 per share value. A portion of the cumulative cash distribution is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series E Preferred Stock. On October 1, 2015, the cumulative cash distribution increased from 9.25% to 11.25% per annum compounded monthly. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we paid $7.5 million and $6.0 million, respectively, in distributions to holders of the Series E Preferred Stock. The aggregate accumulated distributions accrued but not paid to holders of the Series E Preferred Stock as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were approximately $2.2 million and $2.6 million, respectively.

The Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock rank senior to our common stock with respect to distribution rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company.

Sources of Distributions

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we paid aggregate common stock distributions of $5.8 million and $5.7 million, respectively, which were paid 100% from cash flows for such periods. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, our FFO was $(17.7) million and $15.5 million, respectively, while our FFO as adjusted, was $12.9 million and $3.4 million, respectively. Therefore, our management believes our current common stock distribution policy is sustainable at this time. From our inception through September 30, 2015, we paid cumulative common stock distributions of $65.9 million. We paid $40.3 million of our cumulative aggregate common stock distributions, or 61.2%, from cash flows, and $25.6 million, or 38.8%, from proceeds from our public offerings of common stock. The payment of common stock distributions from sources other than cash flow provided by operating activities reduces the amount of proceeds available for investment and operations and may cause us to incur additional interest expense as a result of borrowed funds, if applicable. For a further discussion of FFO and FFO as adjusted, including a reconciliation of FFO and FFO as adjusted to net loss, see FFO and FFO as adjusted below.

Financing

Management reviews our aggregate borrowings, both secured and unsecured, at least quarterly to ensure that such borrowings are reasonable in relation to the combined fair market value of all of our real estate and real estate-related investments. For these purposes, the fair market value of each asset will be equal to the purchase price paid for the asset or, if the asset was appraised subsequent to the date of purchase, then the fair market value will be equal to the value reported in the most recent independent appraisal of the asset. We compute our leverage at least quarterly on a consistently-applied basis. We may also incur indebtedness to finance improvements to properties and, if necessary, for working capital needs or to meet the distribution requirements applicable to REITs under the federal income tax laws. As of September 30, 2015, our aggregate borrowings, excluding the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, were 65.4% of the combined fair market value of all of our real estate and real estate-related investments.

Our Secured Credit Facility contains representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions customary for transactions of this type, including a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, financial reporting requirements, limitations on liens, incurrence of debt, investments, mergers and asset dispositions, affirmative and negative covenants including covenants to preserve corporate existence and comply with laws, covenants on the use of proceeds of the Secured Credit Facility and default provisions, including defaults for non-payment, breach of representations and warranties, insolvency, non-performance of covenants, cross-defaults and guarantor defaults. The occurrence of an event of default under the Secured Credit Facility could result in all loans and other obligations becoming immediately due and payable and the Secured Credit Facility being terminated and allow the lenders to exercise all rights and remedies available to them with respect to the collateral. As of September 30, 2015, we had $156.9 million outstanding under the Secured Credit Facility, which matures on January 4, 2016 and includes certain financial covenants, including a consolidated leverage ratio which requires that consolidated funded indebtedness may not exceed as of the end of each quarter, 75% of total asset value and a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, which as of the end of any quarter shall not be less than 1.05:1.00. As of September 30, 2015, $14.1 million is currently available under our Secured Credit Facility, which is subject to compliance with applicable collateral requirements. We currently do not expect to borrow any additional amounts prior to its maturity date on January 4, 2016.

Our revolving line of credit matures January 4, 2016 and includes certain financial covenants, including (i) a consolidated leverage ratio which requires that consolidated funded indebtedness may not exceed as of the end of any quarter, 75% of total asset value, (ii) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, which as of the end of any quarter shall not be less than 1.05:1.00 and (iii) a FFO covenant which requires the company to achieve FFO of at least $1.00 in each fiscal year. As of September 30, 2015, we had $9.9 million outstanding under the revolving line of credit, leaving $100,000 available to be drawn, with an annual interest rate of 3.44%.

Mortgage loan payables were $1.119 billion ($1.116 billion, excluding premium) as of September 30, 2015. As of September 30, 2015, we had 40 fixed rate and 18 variable rate mortgage loans with effective interest rates ranging from 1.80% to 6.58% per annum and a weighted average effective interest rate of 3.78% per annum.

Between May 2013 and October 2014, as part of the earnout consideration in connection with the ELRM Transaction, we issued to ELRH II unsecured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $616,000. The unsecured notes payable to affiliates matures on the earliest of the fifth anniversary from the applicable date of issuance or the date of our company’s initial public offering on a national securities exchange. Simple interest is payable monthly or can be accrued until maturity at an annual rate of 3.00% at our option.

For a discussion of our mortgage loan payables or our unsecured notes payable to affiliates, the Secured Credit Facility and revolving line of credit, see Note 7, Debt, to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Inflation

Our residents’ leases do not typically provide for rent escalations. However, they typically do not have terms that extend beyond 12 months. Accordingly, we have the opportunity to raise rental rates at least annually to offset such rising costs though we cannot make assurances that we will be able to and not experience a decrease in occupancy.

REIT Requirements

In order to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we are required to make distributions to our stockholders of at least 90.0% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains. In the event that there is a shortfall in net cash available due to factors, including, without limitation, the timing of such distributions or the timing of the collections of receivables, we may seek to obtain capital to pay distributions by means of secured or unsecured debt or equity financing

46

through one or more third parties subject to restrictions under our Secured Credit Facility, the revolving line of credit and terms of our Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock. We may also pay distributions from cash from capital transactions, including, without limitation, the sale of one or more of our consolidated properties.

Commitments and Contingencies

For a discussion of our commitments and contingencies, see Note 9, Commitments and Contingencies, to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Debt Service Requirements

One of our principal liquidity needs is the payment of interest and principal on our outstanding indebtedness. We estimate that we will require approximately $43.0 million to pay interest and $232.1 million to pay principal on our outstanding mortgages, including the maturing Secured Credit Facility, and unsecured indebtedness in the next 12 months, based on rates in effect as of September 30, 2015. We plan to investigate opportunities to extend, refinance or raise funds to repay each of these instruments prior to their respective maturities. As of September 30, 2015, we had 58 mortgage loan payables outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $1.119 billion ($1.116 billion, excluding premium). As of September 30, 2015, we had $616,000 outstanding under our unsecured notes payable to affiliates, $156.9 million outstanding under our Secured Credit Facility and $9.9 million outstanding under our revolving line of credit.

We are required by the terms of the applicable mortgage loan documents, the Secured Credit Facility and the revolving line of credit to comply with various covenants, including financial covenants, such as leverage and liquidity tests, and financial reporting requirements. As of September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all such requirements and we expect to remain in compliance with all such requirements during the fiscal year ending 2015.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

None.

FFO and FFO as Adjusted

FFO is a non-GAAP financial performance measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and widely recognized by investors and analysts as one measure of operating performance of a REIT. The FFO calculation excludes items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on the sale of real estate assets, impairment on depreciable assets and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, it is management’s view, and we believe the view of many industry investors and analysts, that the presentation of operating

47

results for a REIT using the historical accounting for depreciation is insufficient. In addition, FFO excludes gains and losses from the sale of real estate, which we believe provides management and investors with a helpful additional measure of the performance of our real estate portfolio, as it allows for comparisons, year to year, that reflect the impact on operations from trends in items such as occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general, administrative and other expenses, and interest expenses. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We also chose to exclude from the calculation of FFO a taxable (expense)/benefit from our Taxable REIT Subsidiary, or TRS, which is our property manager. During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the taxable expense was $99,000 and $388,000, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the taxable expense was $396,000 and $165,000, respectively.

We also use FFO, as adjusted, as a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate portfolio. FFO as adjusted, as defined by our company, represents, FFO excluding certain non-cash or non-routine items such as acquisition-related expenses, incentive compensation - LTIP units, fair value changes, write-off of deferred initial public offering costs, restructuring and impairment charges, loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment, accretion expense of preferred stock, amortization of net debt premium and amortization of below/above market leases. We exclude acquisition-related expenses, incentive compensation - LTIP units, fair value changes, restructuring charges, loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment, amortization of net debt premium and amortization of below/above market leases and accretion expense of preferred stock derivative because these are non-cash items that we believe do not present an accurate depiction of our FFO.

In addition to net income and cash flows from operations, as defined by GAAP, we believe both FFO and FFO as adjusted, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful in understanding the various ways in which our management evaluates the performance of our real estate portfolio in relation to management’s performance models, and in relation to the operating performance of other REITs. However, not all REITs calculate FFO and FFO as adjusted, the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO and FFO as adjusted, should not be considered as alternatives to net income or to cash flows from operations, and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs.

48

Our calculation of FFO and FFO as adjusted, and reconciliation to net loss, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the following table for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands, except per share data):

Net Operating Income

Our net income results are primarily from NOI generated from the operations of our apartment communities. NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as rental income and other property revenues less direct property rental expenses. Rental income represents gross market rent less adjustments for concessions and vacancy loss. Other property revenues consist primarily of utility re-billings as well as administrative, application and other fees charged to residents, including amounts recorded in connection with early lease terminations. Rental expenses include real estate taxes, insurance, personnel, utilities, repairs and maintenance, administrative and marketing. We believe that NOI is useful for investors as it provides an accurate measure of the operating performance of our operating assets because NOI excludes certain items that are not associated with the management of our properties. Additionally, we believe that NOI is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate community. However, our use of the term NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing this amount.

The following is a reconciliation of net loss, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands):

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

There were no material changes to the information regarding market risk, or to the methods we use to manage market risk, previously disclosed in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2015.

The table below presents, as of September 30, 2015, the principal amounts and weighted average effective interest rates by year of expected maturity to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes (in thousands, except weighted average effective interest rates):

	Expected Maturity Date
	2015			2016			2017			2018			2019			Thereafter			Total			Fair Value
Fixed rate debt — principal payments	$	1,317		$	42,215		$	71,467		$	54,323		$	70,582		$	436,770		$	676,674		$	698,661
Weighted average effective interest rate on maturing debt	4.95		%	5.65		%	5.11		%	4.80		%	5.24		%	4.34		%	4.63		%	—
Variable rate debt — principal payments	$	1,428		$	262,511		$	3,815		$	6,906		$	7,124		$	324,706		$	606,490		$	602,523
Weighted average effective interest rate on maturing debt (based on rates in effect as of June 30, 2015)	3.00		%	3.18		%	2.38		%	2.45		%	2.45		%	2.40		%	2.74		%	—

Mortgage loan payables were $1.119 billion ($1.116 billion, excluding premium) as of September 30, 2015. As of September 30, 2015, we had 40 fixed rate and 18 variable rate mortgage loans with effective interest rates ranging from 1.80% to 6.58% per annum and a weighted average effective interest rate of 3.78% per annum. As of September 30, 2015, we had $679.1 million ($676.1 million, excluding premium) of fixed rate debt, or 60.7% of mortgage loan payables at a weighted average interest rate of 4.64% per annum and $439.7 million of variable rate debt, or 39.3% of mortgage loan payables, at a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.47% per annum. The company has interest rate caps and swaps related to a portion of the mortgage loans above. See Note 13 , Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments.

As of September 30, 2015, we had unsecured notes payable to affiliates outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $616,000, with a weighted average interest rate of 3.00% per annum. The maturity date is on the earliest of the

51

fifth anniversary from the applicable initial date of issuance or the date of our company’s public offering of common stock on a national securities exchange.

As of September 30, 2015, we had $156.9 million outstanding under the Secured Credit Facility, with an effective interest rate of 3.44% per annum, which represents the Eurodollar Rate, based on a one-month interest period plus a margin of 3.25%, and a maturity of January 4, 2016.

As of September 30, 2015, we had $9.9 million outstanding under our revolving line of credit with $100,000 available to be drawn and a maturity of January 4, 2016. Our revolving line of credit bears an annual interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a 3.25% margin. As of September 30, 2015, our annual interest rate was 3.44%.

An increase in the variable interest rate on our 18 variable interest rate mortgage loans, revolving line of credit and our Secured Credit Facility constitutes a market risk. As of September 30, 2015, a 0.50% increase in one-month LIBOR would have increased our overall annual interest expense by $3.0 million, or 3.06%, however, we do manage our interest rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments. The interest rate derivatives that we primarily use are interest rate caps and interest rate swaps.

In addition to changes in interest rates, the value of our properties is subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of residents, which may affect our ability to refinance our debt if necessary.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to us, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and we necessarily were required to apply our judgment in evaluating whether the benefits of the controls and procedures that we adopt outweigh their costs.

As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, an evaluation as of September 30, 2015 was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operations our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of September 30, 2015, were effective.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. We are continuously seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations and our internal controls. This results in modifications to our processes throughout the company. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings.

The company and certain of its affiliates were named as defendants in a fifth amended complaint filed on August 6, 2015 in the Superior Court of Orange County, California, styled Paul D. Bernstein et al. v. NNN Realty Investors, LLC et al., alleging that the company, our operating partnership, ROC REIT Advisors, LLC, or our former advisor, Mr. Olander, our CEO, president and interim CAO, and Mr. Remppies, our COO, participated in fraudulent transfers of assets from an affiliate of Grubb & Ellis Company, thereby preventing such affiliate from satisfying contractual obligations to certain trusts in which plaintiffs invested.  The plaintiffs seek damages and injunctive relief setting aside these alleged transfers.  The company believes that the plaintiffs' claims are without merit and intends to defend the matter vigorously. In addition to the foregoing, we are subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. We cannot determine the ultimate liability with respect to such legal proceedings and claims at this time. We believe that such liability, to the extent not provided for through insurance or otherwise, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.    

Item 1A.    Risk Factors.

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2015.

The REIT Merger is subject to approval by our stockholders

In order for the REIT Merger to be completed, our stockholders must approve the REIT Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Approval of the REIT Merger requires (i) the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock and our preferred stock outstanding as of the record date for our special meeting.

If the Mergers do not occur, we may incur payment obligations to Parent.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, we may be obligated to pay Parent a termination fee of $20.0 million and/or up to $5.0 million in expense reimbursement.

Failure to complete the Mergers could negatively affect our future business and financial results.

If the Mergers are not completed, our ongoing businesses could be adversely affected and we will be subject to a variety of risks associated with the failure to complete the Mergers, including the following:

• being required, under certain circumstances, to pay to Parent a termination fee of $20.0 million and/or up to $5.0 million in expense reimbursement;

• having to pay certain costs relating to the proposed Mergers, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor, filing, printing and mailing fees; and

• diversion of management focus and resources from operational matters and other strategic opportunities while working to implement the Mergers.

If the Mergers are not completed, these risks could materially affect our business and financial results.

The pendency of the Mergers could adversely affect our business and operations.

Prior to the effective time of the Mergers, some of our tenants or vendors may delay or defer decisions, which could negatively affect our revenues, earnings, cash flows and expenses, regardless of whether the Mergers are completed. Similarly, current and prospective employees experience uncertainty about their future roles following the Mergers, which may materially adversely affect our ability to attract and retain key personnel during the pendency of the Mergers. In addition, due to operating restrictions in the Merger Agreement, we may be unable, during the pendency of the Mergers, to pursue strategic transactions, undertake significant capital projects, undertake certain significant financing transactions and otherwise pursue other actions, even if such actions would prove beneficial.

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that could discourage a potential competing acquirer of us or could result in any competing acquisition proposal being at a lower price than it might otherwise be.

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that, subject to limited exceptions, restrict our ability to initiate, solicit, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any third-party proposals to acquire all or a significant part of us. With respect to any bona fide third-party acquisition proposal, we generally are required to offer to modify the terms of the Merger Agreement

53

in response to such proposal before our board may withdraw or modify its recommendation to our stockholders in response to such acquisition proposal. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement in certain circumstances, we may be required to pay a substantial termination fee and/or expense reimbursement to Parent.

These provisions could discourage a potential competing acquirer that might have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of us from considering or proposing a competing acquisition, even if the potential competing acquirer was prepared to pay consideration with a higher per share cash value than that market value proposed to be received or realized in the Mergers, or might result in a potential competing acquirer proposing to pay a lower price than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the termination fee and expense reimbursement that may become payable in certain circumstances under the Merger Agreement.

If the Mergers are not consummated by March 31, 2016, either we or Parent may terminate the Merger Agreement.

Either we or Parent may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Mergers have not been consummated by March 31, 2016. However, this termination right will not be available to a party if that party failed to fulfill its obligations under the Merger Agreement and that failure was the cause of, or resulted in, the failure to consummate the Mergers.

[1] The fair value is estimated using borrowing rates available to us for debt instruments with similar terms and maturities.

[2] The fair value is estimated using borrowing rates available to us for debt instruments with similar terms and maturities.

[3] Other than the $500,000 unsecured note issued to Legacy Galleria, LLC in connection with an acquisition of a certain property, or the Legacy Unsecured Note, management estimates the fair value to be equal to the book value. The fair value of the Legacy Unsecured Note is based on a benchmark index from the limited partnership unit distributions dividend rate; therefore, we consider the fair value of the Legacy Unsecured Note to be equal to the carrying value. The Legacy Unsecured Note was paid in full on May 28, 2015.

[4] Management estimates the fair value to be equal to the book value.

[5] The fair value of the warrants is estimated using the Monte-Carlo Simulation.

[6] The fair value of the warrants is estimated using the Monte-Carlo Simulation.

[7] The fair value of the Series E Preferred Stock derivative, which relates to the mandatory redemption of 50% of the Series E Preferred Stock outstanding as of the date of a triggering event as described in the Series E Preferred Stock agreements for a premium, is determined using a modeling technique based on significant unobservable inputs calculated using a probability-weighted approach. Significant inputs include the expected timing of a triggering event, the expected timing of additional issuances of Series E Preferred Stock, and the discount rate.

[8] The fair value is based on management’s inputs and assumptions relating primarily to certain net operating income over a four-year period for Landmark at Andros Isles. There is no longer any potential contingent earnout consideration available in connection with the acquisition of this property.

(2) Other than the $500,000 unsecured note issued to Legacy Galleria, LLC in connection with an acquisition of a certain property, or the Legacy Unsecured Note, management estimates the fair value to be equal to the book value. The fair value of the Legacy Unsecured Note is based on a benchmark index from the limited partnership unit distributions dividend rate; therefore, we consider the fair value of the Legacy Unsecured Note to be equal to the carrying value. The Legacy Unsecured Note was paid in full on May 28, 2015.

(3) The fair value is based on management’s inputs and assumptions relating primarily to certain net operating income over a four-year period for Landmark at Andros Isles. There is no longer any potential contingent earnout consideration available in connection with the acquisition of this property.

(4) The fair value of the warrants is estimated using the Monte-Carlo Simulation.

(5) The fair value of the Series E Preferred Stock derivative, which relates to the mandatory redemption of 50% of the Series E Preferred Stock outstanding as of the date of a triggering event as described in the Series E Preferred Stock agreements for a premium, is determined using a modeling technique based on significant unobservable inputs calculated using a probability-weighted approach. Significant inputs include the expected timing of a triggering event, the expected timing of additional issuances of Series E Preferred Stock, and the discount rate.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2015.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation due to the addition of property lease expense into general, administrative and other expenses.

Goodwill

Goodwill resulting from business combinations is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any non-controlling interests in the acquired business, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis or in interim periods if events or circumstances indicate potential impairment. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded $496,000 and $1.7 million, respectively, of impairment to goodwill, which was primarily due to the reduction of future economic benefits which is recorded in restructuring and impairment charges in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we sold our equity interest in two of our managed equity investments while two of our managed equity investment properties and one of our managed third party properties were sold by their owners and, since September 30, 2015, another one of our managed third party properties was sold by its owner and, therefore, we no longer manage such properties. Utilizing the discounted cash flow method of the income approach, we estimated a fair market value to measure the impairment to goodwill, including a weighted probability of the expected loss of certain contracts in the future, which is a Level 3 fair value measurement. The transfer of 11 of our managed third party properties and the related reduction of future economic benefits was included in the annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2014. No impairment was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had goodwill of $2.9 million and $4.6 million, respectively, included in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Income Taxes

For federal income tax purposes, we have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2006, and we intend to continue to be taxed as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to pay distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on net income that we distribute to our stockholders. We are subject to state and local income taxes in some jurisdictions, and in certain circumstances we may also be subject to federal excise taxes on undistributed income. In addition, certain of our activities must be conducted by subsidiaries that elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs. TRSs are subject to both federal and state income taxes.

Our property manager is organized as a TRS and accordingly is subject to income taxation. During the second quarter of 2014, we determined that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will not be realized due to losses incurred by the property manager and recorded a valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the valuation allowance was $2.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively. It is expected that any future net deferred tax assets will continue to be offset by a valuation allowance until the property manager establishes a pattern of profitability. To the extent the property manager generates consistent income, we may reduce the valuation allowance in the period such determination is made.

Income tax expense of $99,000 and $396,000 was recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, which consisted entirely of state income tax expense for each respective period.

As of September 30, 2015, total net operating loss carry forward for federal income tax purposes was approximately $67.0 million and $7.0 million for our company and our TRS, respectively. The net operating loss carry forwards will expire beginning in 2026 and 2031 for our company and our TRS, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued accounting standards update, or ASU, 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Certain contracts are excluded from ASU 2014-09, including lease contracts within the scope of the FASB guidance included in Leases. As originally issued, public entities were

required to adopt ASU 2014-09 during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim reporting periods during the year of adoption; however, on August 12, 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU 2015-14”), which delayed the new revenue standard’s effective date by one year.  An entity may adopt ASU 2014-09 using either a full retrospective approach for each prior reporting period presented or a modified retrospective approach.  Under the latter approach an entity will (i) recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 as an adjustment to the opening balance of its retained earnings or accumulated deficit during the annual reporting period that includes the date of initial application of ASU 2014-09 and (ii) provide certain supplemental disclosures during reporting periods that include the date of initial application of ASU 2014-09.  Early adoption of ASU 2014-09 was not initially permitted by public entities; however, ASU 2015-14 provides for early adoption by such entities but not before the original effective date of the new revenue standard.  Due to the complex analyses required under ASU 2014-09, we have not yet determined the impact thereof on our consolidated financial statements or the method of adoption that the Company will apply.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)," effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The amendments in this update provide guidance in GAAP about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, that the adoption of ASU 2014-15 will have on our footnote disclosures.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, "Consolidation (Topic 810)," effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments in this update affect reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. All legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model. We are currently evaluating to determine the potential impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2015-02 will have on our financial position and results of operations.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, "Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30)," effective for the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The standard simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs and requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The new guidance will only impact financial statement presentation. The guidance is effective in the first quarter of 2016 and allows for early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

Agreement and Plan of Merger

On October 22, 2015, we entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger, or the Merger Agreement, to be acquired by Monument Partners, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, or the Parent, an affiliate of Starwood Capital Group, and Milestone Apartments Real Estate Investment Trust, a Canadian real estate investment trust, for a purchase price of $8.17 in cash per share of our common stock or OP unit, respectively, without interest, or the Merger Consideration.

Transaction Structure

The Merger Agreement, by and among us, our operating partnership, Parent, Monument REIT Merger Sub, L.P., or REIT Merger Sub, a Delaware limited partnership and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and Monument Partnership Merger Sub, L.P., or Partnership Merger Sub, a Virginia limited partnership and a wholly-owned subsidiary of REIT Merger Sub, provides that:

• Partnership Merger Sub will merge with and into our operating partnership, with our operating partnership surviving as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent; this transaction is referred to herein as the Partnership Merger; and

• following the Partnership Merger, we will merge with and into REIT Merger Sub, with REIT Merger Sub surviving as a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent; this transaction is referred to herein as the REIT Merger and, together with the Partnership Merger, as the Mergers.

At the effective time of the Partnership Merger, or the Partnership Merger Effective Time, each OP unit issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time (other than those held by us, Parent or an affiliate of Parent) will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $8.17, without interest, referred to herein as the Partnership per Share Merger Consideration.

Merger Consideration

At the effective time of the REIT Merger, or the REIT Merger Effective Time, each share of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the REIT Merger Effective Time (other than those held by any wholly-owned subsidiary of us or Parent) will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $8.17, without interest, referred to herein as the REIT Per Share Merger Consideration.

Redemption of Preferred Shares

At the closing of the Mergers, each share of our Series D Preferred Stock and our Series E Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the REIT Merger Effective Time will be redeemed by us for a redemption price as determined in accordance with the Articles Supplementary designating the terms of the Preferred Stock.

Treatment of Equity Awards

Immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time, all LTIP units of our operating partnership will be fully vested (whether or not then vested or subject to any performance condition or any condition related to the book-up of the capital account associated with the LTIP Units that has not been satisfied), and will be considered to be outstanding OP units and subject to the right to receive the Partnership Per Share Merger Consideration (less applicable withholding taxes) at the Partnership Merger Effective Time.

Immediately prior to the REIT Merger Effective Time, each restricted share of our common stock will be fully vested (whether or not then vested or subject to any performance condition that has not been satisfied), and all shares of our common stock represented thereby will be considered outstanding and subject to the right to receive the REIT Per Share Merger Consideration (less applicable withholding taxes) at the REIT Merger Effective Time.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

The Merger Agreement contains certain customary representations, warranties and covenants, including, among others, covenants by us to conduct our business in all material respects in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, subject to certain exceptions, during the period between signing and closing of the Mergers and covenants prohibiting us and our subsidiaries and representatives, from soliciting, providing information or entering into discussions concerning proposals relating to alternative business combination transactions, subject to certain limited exceptions.

Closing Conditions

The consummation of the Mergers is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among others:

• approval of the Partnership Merger and the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the company, in our capacity as the general partner of our operating partnership;

• approval of the REIT Merger and the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock and preferred stock as of the record date for the special meeting of our stockholders, voting together as a single class;

• the absence of a material adverse effect on either us or Parent; and

• the receipt by Parent of a tax opinion relating to our REIT status.

The obligations of the parties to consummate the Mergers are not subject to any financing condition or the receipt of any financing by Parent, REIT Merger Sub or Partnership Merger Sub.

Termination Rights

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both us and Parent. Under specified circumstances, we are entitled to terminate the Merger Agreement to accept a superior business combination proposal. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement to enter into a superior business combination proposal, or under certain other specified circumstances, we will be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $20.0 million. In certain circumstances where the Merger Agreement has been terminated but we are not required to pay a termination fee, we will be required to reimburse Parent for up to $5.0 million of expenses incurred in connection with the transaction (although if the termination fee later becomes payable, amounts reimbursed by us will be credited against the termination fee payable). In connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement by us or Parent under certain specified circumstances, Parent will be required to pay the company a termination fee of $50.0 million.

Voting Agreements

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, certain of the holders of our common stock, and all of our directors and officers who hold our common stock, collectively referred to herein as the Covered Stockholders, in their capacities as stockholders of the company, entered into voting agreements with Parent, or the Voting Agreements. Pursuant to their respective Voting Agreement, each of the Covered Stockholders, who collectively have the power to vote approximately 18.8% of the shares of our common stock outstanding as of October 19, 2015, has agreed to vote all shares of our common stock beneficially owned by it in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement and against any alternative proposal or any other action that is reasonably likely to adversely affect or interfere with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

In addition, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the holders of our preferred stock entered into voting agreements with Parent, or the Preferred Stockholder Voting Agreements. Pursuant to their respective Preferred Stock Voting Agreement, each of the holders of our preferred stock has agreed to vote its shares of preferred stock in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement in proportion to the number of votes of our common stock voted in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement and to vote against any alternative proposal or any other action that is reasonably likely to adversely affect or interfere with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement in proportion to the number of votes of our common stock voted against such proposals or actions. The holders of the preferred stock have also agreed not to (i) solicit, provide information or enter into discussions concerning proposals relating to alternative business combination transactions, or (ii) solicit proxies, recommend or advise others to vote against the adoption of the Merger Agreement or indicate support or approval for any alternative business combination transaction.

Tax Protection Waivers

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, some of the limited partners of our operating partnership with tax protection agreements executed waivers of their tax protection rights in connection with, and conditioned upon, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Redemption of OP Units

On November 5, 2015, the Company issued a total of 2,772,931 shares of its common stock to certain of our limited partners. The shares of common stock were issued in connection with such limited partners’ redemption of a total of 2,772,931 OP units.

Sale of Managed Third Party Property

On October 9,2015, one of our managed third party properties was sold by its owner and we no longer manage that property. In connection with the sale, a total of 13,906 restricted OP units previously issued to the ELRM Parties were forfeited and canceled.

Organization and Description of Business

Organization and Description of Business

Landmark Apartment Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was incorporated on December 21, 2005. We are self-administered and self-managed, and we conduct substantially all of our operations through Landmark Apartment Trust Holdings, LP, or our operating partnership. We are in the business of acquiring, owning and managing a diverse portfolio of quality properties with stable cash flows and growth potential primarily in the Sunbelt region, which comprises the South and certain Texas markets of the United States. We may acquire and have acquired other real estate-related investments. We focus primarily on investments that produce current income. We have qualified and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, for federal income tax purposes and we intend to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT.

As of September 30, 2015, we consolidated 72 properties, including six properties held through consolidated joint ventures, with an aggregate of 21,796 apartment units, which had an aggregate gross carrying value of $1.7 billion. We refer to these properties as our consolidated properties. As of September 30, 2015, we also managed ten properties. Six of these properties, which had an aggregate of 1,991 apartment units at September 30, 2015, are owned by Timbercreek U.S. Multi-Residential Operating L.P., or the Timbercreek Fund, in which we own an indirect minority interest through our investment in Timbercreek U.S. Multi-Residential (U.S.) Holding L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, or Timbercreek Holding. Timbercreek Holding is a limited partner in the Timbercreek Fund. We refer to these six properties as our managed equity investment properties. The remaining four properties, which we refer to as our managed third party properties, as of September 30, 2015, had an aggregate of 1,134 apartment units, were owned by one or more third parties, including certain entities affiliated with Elco Landmark Residential Holdings, LLC, or ELRH. Since September 30, 2015, one of these managed third party properties was sold and we no longer managed such property.

All of our consolidated and managed properties are managed by LATPM, LLC, or our property manager.

These financial statements have not been audited. Amounts as of December 31, 2014 included in these financial statements have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for interim financial information and the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Although we believe our footnote disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, you should read these financial statements in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes to those consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

Equity [Abstract]

Equity

Preferred Stock

Our charter authorizes us to issue 50,000,000 shares of our preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had issued and outstanding (i) 7,628,285 and 20,976,300 shares, respectively, of Series D Preferred Stock and (ii) 2,691,102 and 7,400,000 shares, respectively, of Series E Preferred Stock. See Note 8, Preferred Stock and Warrants to Purchase Common Stock.

Common Stock

Our charter authorizes us to issue up to 300,000,000 shares of our common stock. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had 27,410,432 and 25,628,526 shares, respectively, of our common stock issued and outstanding.

The following are the equity transactions with respect to our common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2015:

• 127,494 shares of common stock were issued pursuant to the DRIP (as defined below).

• 49,080 shares of common stock issued to DK Gateway Andros II LLC, in relation to the settlement of the Landmark at Andros Isles contingent consideration.

• 1,605,332 shares of common stock issued to certain of our limited partners, in response to a redemption request and pursuant to the terms of our operating partnership's limited partnership agreement, in exchange for an equal number of OP units.

Our distributions are subject to approval by our board. Our common stock distributions as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was equivalent to $0.30 per share per annum for each period then ended.

We report earnings (loss) per share pursuant to ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share attributable for all periods presented are computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to shares of our common stock for the period by the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding during the period using the two class method. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common shares for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the two-class method. Unvested shares of our restricted common stock give rise to potentially dilutive shares of our common stock. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were 143,587 and 192,316 shares, respectively, of unvested shares of our restricted common stock outstanding, but such shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because such shares were anti-dilutive during these periods. The long-term investment plan units, or LTIP Units, could potentially dilute the basic earnings per share in future periods but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented. Further, the warrants were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share and also would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

In the first quarter of 2011, our board adopted the Second Amended and Restated Dividend Reinvestment Plan, or DRIP. The DRIP provides a way to increase stockholders' investment in our company by reinvesting distributions to purchase additional shares of our common stock. The DRIP offers up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock for reinvestment. Distributions are reinvested in shares of our common stock at a price equal to the most recently disclosed per share value, as determined by our board.

Since August 2012, we have made a series of acquisitions and issued common stock or common stock equivalents, or equivalents, at $8.15 per share. This price was determined to be a fair value based on negotiated transactions with advice from professionals. Accordingly, $8.15 is the per share price used for the issuance of shares pursuant to the DRIP until such time as our board provides a new estimate of share value. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, $1.0 million in distributions were reinvested and 127,494 shares of our common stock were issued pursuant to the DRIP. Effective July 1, 2015, we suspended the DRIP, as determined by our board.

OP Units

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had outstanding 38,379,646 and 41,446,746 OP units, respectively, issued to our non-controlling interest holders for consideration of $312.8 million and $337.8 million, respectively, in relation to the acquisition of properties and the ELRM Transaction. The OP units issued as part of the ELRM Transaction are restricted and will vest in equal amounts over a period of five years, subject to certain accelerated vesting and cancellation provisions. See Note 12, Non-Controlling Interests, for additional information on our OP units.

LTIP Units

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had issued 1,016,619 and 647,908 LTIP Units, respectively, under the 2012 Award Plan (as defined below), respectively, to certain of our executive officers as incentive compensation. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recognized compensation expense of $145,000 and $174,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recognized compensation expense of $922,000 and $1.3 million, respectively, related to the LTIP Units issued and outstanding. LTIP Unit compensation expense is included in general, administrative and other expense in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there was $1.3 million and $0, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested LTIP Units.

2006 Incentive Award Plan

We adopted our 2006 Award Plan (as amended and restated from time to time) pursuant to which our board or a committee of our independent directors may make grants of options, restricted common stock awards, stock purchase rights, stock appreciation rights or other awards to our independent directors, employees and consultants. The maximum number of shares of our common stock or equivalents that may be issued pursuant to our 2006 Award Plan, together with the number of shares of common stock or equivalents issued under the 2012 Award Plan (as defined below), is an aggregate total of 2,000,000, subject to adjustment under specified circumstances.

Shares of restricted common stock may not be sold, transferred, exchanged, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered. Such restrictions expire upon vesting. Any unvested shares will vest immediately upon a change of control (as defined in the 2012 Award Plan). Shares of restricted common stock have full voting rights and rights to dividends. For each of the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recognized compensation expense of $100,000, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recognized compensation expense of $297,000 and $268,000, respectively, related to the restricted common stock grants ultimately expected to vest, which has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. ASC Topic 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Stock compensation expense is included in general, administrative and other expense in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there was $1.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to the unvested shares of our restricted common stock. As of September 30, 2015, this expense is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 2.58 years.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of the unvested shares of our restricted common stock was $1.2 million and $1.6 million, respectively, based upon $8.15 at grant date. A summary of the status of the unvested shares of our restricted common stock as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and the changes for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, is presented below:

	Restricted Common Stock		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Balance - December 31, 2014	192,316		$	8.18
Vested	(48,729	)	$	8.15
Balance - September 30, 2015	143,587		$	8.19

2012 Other Equity-Based Award Plan

During 2012, our board adopted our 2012 Award Plan, which is intended to assist our company and our affiliates in recruiting and retaining individuals and other service providers with ability and initiative by enabling such persons or entities to participate in the future success of the company and its affiliates and to associate their interests with those of the company and its stockholders. The 2012 Award Plan is also intended to complement the purposes and objectives of the 2006 Award Plan through the grant of “other equity-based awards” under the 2012 Award Plan. Pursuant to the 2012 Award Plan, our board or our compensation committee may make grants of other equity-based awards to our independent directors, employees and certain consultants. Other equity-based awards are payable in cash, shares of common stock or other equity, or a combination thereof, and the terms and conditions of such other equity-based awards are determined by our board or our compensation committee, as applicable. The maximum aggregate number of shares of our common stock or equivalents that may be issued under the 2012 Award Plan, together with the number of shares of common stock or equivalents issued under the 2006 Award Plan, is an aggregate total of 2,000,000 shares, subject to adjustment under specified circumstances.

401(k) Savings Plan

We have a 401(k) savings plan, which is a voluntary defined contribution plan. Under the savings plan, every employee is eligible to participate, beginning on the date the employee has completed two months of continuous service with us. Each participant may make contributions to the savings plan by means of a pre-tax salary deferral, which may not be less than 1% or more than 85% of the participant’s compensation, subject to limitations under the federal tax code on the annual amount of salary deferrals which may be made by any participant. The company may make discretionary matching contributions on the participant’s behalf up to a predetermined limit, which was 40% of salary deferrals for the first 5% of eligible compensation. The matching contribution made for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, was $48,000 and $39,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 it was $136,000 and $92,000, respectively. A participant’s salary deferral and the company's matched portion is 100% vested and nonforfeitable. Any administrative expenses under the savings plan that were paid by us were not significant for all periods presented.

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we held non-controlling interests in the following investments which are accounted for under the equity method (in thousands, except unit data):

Investment Description	Date Acquired	Number of Units	Total Investment at September 30, 2015		Total Investment at December 31, 2014		Percentage Ownership at September 30, 2015

Total investments			$	2,566	$	8,962

On November 18, 2013, we acquired an equity interest in the Landmark at Waverly Place property from affiliates of ELRH. We owned a 20% non-controlling interest and our joint venture partner owned an 80% controlling interest in Landmark at Waverly Place, LLC, the entity that owns the Landmark at Waverly Place property. We sold our 20% equity interest on June 24, 2015 for $1.5 million.

On December 6, 2013, we acquired an equity interest in The Fountains property from affiliates of ELRH. We owned a 20% non-controlling interest and our joint venture partner owned an 80% controlling interest in Landmark at Garden Square, LLC, the entity that owns The Fountains property. We sold our 20% equity interest on June 24, 2015 for $5.4 million.

On December 20, 2013, in conjunction with the ELRM Transaction (as defined below), we purchased 500,000 Class A Units in Timbercreek Holding from Elco Landmark Residential Holdings II, LLC, or ELRH II, an entity affiliated with Mr. Michael Salkind and Mr. Avi Israeli, two members of our board of directors, or our board, for consideration in the amount of $5.0 million consisting of the issuance of 613,497 of shares of our common stock, therefore, becoming a limited partner in Timbercreek Holding. At September 30, 2015, we indirectly owned approximately 9.2% of the limited partnership interests in the Timbercreek Fund. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, two of our managed equity investment properties were sold by the Timbercreek Fund. We received approximately $1.7 million of distributions in connection with the sale of the two properties, which resulted in a reduction to our investment in unconsolidated entities in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2015. On March 14, 2013, we completed the acquisition of certain assets constituting the management operations of ELRH, and certain of its affiliates, or, collectively, the ELRM Parties, and acquired the management operations of the ELRM Parties, including certain property management contracts and the rights to earn property management fees and back-end participation for managing certain real estate assets acquired by the Timbercreek Fund. We refer to this acquisition as the ELRM Transaction.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2015

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2015.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation due to the addition of property lease expense into general, administrative and other expenses.

Goodwill

Goodwill resulting from business combinations is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any non-controlling interests in the acquired business, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis or in interim periods if events or circumstances indicate potential impairment.

Income Taxes

For federal income tax purposes, we have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2006, and we intend to continue to be taxed as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to pay distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on net income that we distribute to our stockholders. We are subject to state and local income taxes in some jurisdictions, and in certain circumstances we may also be subject to federal excise taxes on undistributed income. In addition, certain of our activities must be conducted by subsidiaries that elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs. TRSs are subject to both federal and state income taxes.

Our property manager is organized as a TRS and accordingly is subject to income taxation. During the second quarter of 2014, we determined that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will not be realized due to losses incurred by the property manager and recorded a valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued accounting standards update, or ASU, 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Certain contracts are excluded from ASU 2014-09, including lease contracts within the scope of the FASB guidance included in Leases. As originally issued, public entities were

required to adopt ASU 2014-09 during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim reporting periods during the year of adoption; however, on August 12, 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU 2015-14”), which delayed the new revenue standard’s effective date by one year.  An entity may adopt ASU 2014-09 using either a full retrospective approach for each prior reporting period presented or a modified retrospective approach.  Under the latter approach an entity will (i) recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 as an adjustment to the opening balance of its retained earnings or accumulated deficit during the annual reporting period that includes the date of initial application of ASU 2014-09 and (ii) provide certain supplemental disclosures during reporting periods that include the date of initial application of ASU 2014-09.  Early adoption of ASU 2014-09 was not initially permitted by public entities; however, ASU 2015-14 provides for early adoption by such entities but not before the original effective date of the new revenue standard.  Due to the complex analyses required under ASU 2014-09, we have not yet determined the impact thereof on our consolidated financial statements or the method of adoption that the Company will apply.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)," effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The amendments in this update provide guidance in GAAP about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, that the adoption of ASU 2014-15 will have on our footnote disclosures.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, "Consolidation (Topic 810)," effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments in this update affect reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. All legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model. We are currently evaluating to determine the potential impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2015-02 will have on our financial position and results of operations.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, "Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30)," effective for the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The standard simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs and requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The new guidance will only impact financial statement presentation. The guidance is effective in the first quarter of 2016 and allows for early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments

ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the face of the balance sheet. Fair value is defined under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

We consider the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables due from affiliates, restricted cash, real estate and escrow deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and other payables due to affiliates to approximate fair value for these financial instruments because of the short period of time between origination of the instruments and their expected realization.

Interest Rate Caps and Interest Rate Swaps

We manage our interest rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative transactions for trading or other speculative purposes. The interest rate derivatives that we primarily use are interest rate caps and interest rate swaps. We enter into these interest rate derivative transactions to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on variable rate mortgage loans. We assess the effectiveness of qualifying cash flow hedges both at inception and on an on-going basis. The fair values of the hedging derivatives and non-designated derivatives that are in an asset position are recorded in other assets, net on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of derivatives that are in a liability position are included in security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of September 30, 2015, we had entered into 13 interest rate cap agreements. An interest rate cap involves the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an upfront premium. The fair value of our rate cap agreement is determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if the variable interest rate rises above the strike rate of the cap and is a Level 2 fair value calculation. These derivatives are not designated by us to be a hedge instrument, and the change in fair value is recorded to interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the change in fair value resulted in an increase to interest expense of $314,000 and $22,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the change in fair value resulted in an increase to interest expense of $513,000 and $327,000, respectively.

As of September 30, 2015, we had entered into two interest rate swap agreements pursuant to which we have agreed to pay a fixed rate of interest in exchange for a floating rate of interest at a future date and have designated one of these as a hedging derivative and one as a non-designated hedge. The fair value of our swap agreements is determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rate rises above or below the strike rate of the future floating rate and is a Level 2 fair value calculation. On July 23, 2015, we closed one of our hedged interest rate swap agreements in relation to the repayment in full of the related mortgage loan payable using the proceeds from refinancing the mortgage.

For the one interest rate swap that we have determined qualifies as an effective cash flow hedge, we have recorded the effective portion of cumulative changes in the fair value of the hedging derivative in accumulated other comprehensive operations in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of equity. Amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive operations will be reclassified into earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged cash flow. To adjust the hedging derivatives in qualifying cash flow hedges to their fair value and recognize the impact of hedge accounting, we recorded $(201,000) and $240,000 in other comprehensive (income)/loss for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $(178,000) and $(447,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. One interest rate swap is not intended by us to be a hedge instrument and the change in fair value is recorded to interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the change in fair value was a decrease to interest expense of $138,000 and $504,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, a decrease to interest expense of $312,000 and $134,000, respectively.

The following table summarizes our derivative arrangements and the consolidated hedging derivatives at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, (in thousands, except interest rates):

(2) Other than the $500,000 unsecured note issued to Legacy Galleria, LLC in connection with an acquisition of a certain property, or the Legacy Unsecured Note, management estimates the fair value to be equal to the book value. The fair value of the Legacy Unsecured Note is based on a benchmark index from the limited partnership unit distributions dividend rate; therefore, we consider the fair value of the Legacy Unsecured Note to be equal to the carrying value. The Legacy Unsecured Note was paid in full on May 28, 2015.

(3) The fair value is based on management’s inputs and assumptions relating primarily to certain net operating income over a four-year period for Landmark at Andros Isles. There is no longer any potential contingent earnout consideration available in connection with the acquisition of this property.

(4) The fair value of the warrants is estimated using the Monte-Carlo Simulation.

(5) The fair value of the Series E Preferred Stock derivative, which relates to the mandatory redemption of 50% of the Series E Preferred Stock outstanding as of the date of a triggering event as described in the Series E Preferred Stock agreements for a premium, is determined using a modeling technique based on significant unobservable inputs calculated using a probability-weighted approach. Significant inputs include the expected timing of a triggering event, the expected timing of additional issuances of Series E Preferred Stock, and the discount rate.

The table below provides a reconciliation of the fair values of acquisition contingent consideration, warrant liability, and Series E Preferred Stock derivative measured on a recurring basis for which the company has designated as Level 3 (in thousands):

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The company and certain of its affiliates were named as defendants in a fifth amended complaint filed on August 6, 2015 in the Superior Court of Orange County, California, styled Paul D. Bernstein et al. v. NNN Realty Investors, LLC et al., alleging that the company, our operating partnership, ROC REIT Advisors, LLC, or our former advisor, Mr. Olander, our CEO, president and interim CAO, and Mr. Remppies, our COO, participated in fraudulent transfers of assets from an affiliate of Grubb & Ellis Company, thereby preventing such affiliate from satisfying contractual obligations to certain trusts in which plaintiffs invested.  The plaintiffs seek damages and injunctive relief setting aside these alleged transfers.  The company believes that the plaintiffs' claims are without merit and intends to defend the matter vigorously. We have not accrued any amount for the possible outcome of this litigation because management does not believe that a material loss is probable or estimable at this time.

In addition to the foregoing, we are subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. We cannot determine the ultimate liability with respect to such legal proceedings and claims at this time. We believe that such liability, to the extent not provided for through insurance or otherwise, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental Matters

It is our policy not to purchase any property unless and until we obtain an environmental assessment, which consists of, at a minimum, a Phase I review, and generally are satisfied with the environmental condition of the property, as determined by our management. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist at our properties, we are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to our properties that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Further, we are not aware of any material environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.

Acquisition Contingent Consideration

ELRM Transaction

We incurred certain contingent consideration in connection with the ELRM Transaction which was consummated during the first quarter of 2013. In consideration for the contribution to our operating partnership of ELRH’s economic rights to earn property management fees for managing certain real estate assets of the Timbercreek Fund, our operating partnership agreed to issue up to $10.0 million in restricted limited partnership interests, or OP units, to ELRH. Additionally, ELRH and certain of its affiliates had the opportunity to earn additional consideration in the form of restricted OP units and a promissory note through a contingent consideration arrangement, which was based on two events: (i) projected fees that we would earn in connection with new property management agreements for properties that may be acquired by ELRH and certain of its affiliates and (ii) funds raised at certain target dates to acquire properties in the Timbercreek Fund. As of December 31, 2014, all potential earnout opportunities available to the ELRM Parties or otherwise pursuant to the ELRM Transaction had been satisfied.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we determined that there was no fair value of the acquisition contingent consideration. There was a decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration of $0 and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, which is recorded in change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. See Note 13, Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments, for further discussion of our fair valuation of assets and liabilities on a recurring basis.

Landmark at Andros Isles

On June 4, 2014, we completed the acquisition of Landmark at Andros Isles, which included acquisition contingent consideration with an initial estimated fair value of $2.7 million. The acquisition contingent consideration was based on a calculation of future net operating income (which included the payment of principal and interest on the mortgage loan payable as defined in the definitive agreements) over the four-year period subsequent to the acquisition, with a total payout not to exceed $4.0 million. There was no change in fair value for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

As of December 31, 2014, the estimated fair value of the acquisition contingent consideration was $2.9 million. During the first quarter of 2015, we recorded an increase in the fair value of $100,000 and on May 5, 2015, we settled the acquisition contingent consideration that was due in connection with the Landmark at Andros Isles acquisition for aggregate consideration of $3.9 million, of which $3.5 million was paid in cash and $400,000 was paid by issuing shares of our common stock at a per share value of $8.15. The remaining adjustment in the fair value of the acquisition contingent consideration of $900,000 was recorded in the second quarter of 2015. As of September 30, 2015, there is no remaining acquisition contingent consideration opportunity related to this acquisition. The change in fair value was recorded to the change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. See Note 13, Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments, for further discussion of our fair valuation on a recurring basis.

See Note 10, Related Party Transactions, for further discussion regarding the acquisition contingent consideration.

Support Payment Agreement

On December 20, 2013, we issued to ELRH II 1,226,994 shares of common stock in connection with (i) our acquisition of the Class A Units in Timbercreek Holding for $5.0 million and (ii) the initial pay down of $5.0 million of the ELRM Note.  In order for ELRH II to ensure it would receive equivalent value to the cash it would have received under the ELRM Note and for the acquisition of the Class A Units, the Company entered into a support payment agreement with ELRH II, which agreement contains a price support mechanism. When the shares are no longer restricted, ELRH II is obligated, for a period of ten business days, to use commercially reasonable efforts to sell the shares at a price above $8.15 per share. In the event that ELRH II is not successful in selling the shares, ELRH II may give notice whereupon we have the option to either (i) issue additional shares of our common stock with a value that is equal to the difference between $8.15 per share multiplied by the 1,226,994 shares and the actual gross selling price received by ELRH II upon the sale of the shares or (ii) repurchase the shares for $8.15 per share in cash. If ELRH II fails to dispose of the shares as described above, our obligation to make the support payment will terminate. In the event a public offering and a listing of our capital stock, or an IPO, does not take place before March 14, 2018, we may call or ELRH II may put the shares to us and we would be obligated to repurchase the shares for $8.15 per share in cash. Based on our expectation to enter into a merger agreement to be acquired and the consequential unlikelihood of an IPO occurring, we determined that the support payment obligation had no value as of September 30, 2015. The support payment agreement was insignificant as of December 31, 2014.

Mortgage Loan Payables, Net

Mortgage loan payables were $1.119 billion ($1.116 billion, excluding premium) and $1.02 billion ($1.01 billion, excluding premium) as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. As of September 30, 2015, we had 40 fixed rate and 18 variable rate mortgage loans with effective interest rates ranging from 1.80% to 6.58% per annum and a weighted average effective interest rate of 3.78% per annum. As of September 30, 2015, we had $679.1 million ($676.1 million, excluding premium) of fixed rate debt, or 60.7% of mortgage loan payables, at a weighted average interest rate of 4.64% per annum and $439.7 million of variable rate debt, or 39.3% of mortgage loan payables, at a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.47% per annum. As of December 31, 2014, we had 54 fixed rate and 12 variable rate mortgage loans with effective interest rates ranging from 1.76% to 6.58% per annum, and a weighted average effective interest rate of 4.53% per annum. As of December 31, 2014, we had $763.8 million ($755.6 million, excluding premium) of fixed rate debt, or 74.8% of mortgage loan payables, at a weighted average interest rate of 5.22% per annum and $257.9 million of variable rate debt, or 25.2% of mortgage loan payables, at a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.52% per annum.

During the third quarter of 2015, we refinanced 21 separate mortgage loans. The aggregate balance of the new mortgage loan payables was $457.9 million as of September 30, 2015. The new mortgage loan payables have a 7-year term maturing August 1, 2022 and accrues interest at either a (i) fixed rate equal to 4.20% or (ii) floating rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 2.61%. We purchased interest rate caps for each of these floating rate loans, which are not designated as hedges. We used the remaining net proceeds from the refinancings primarily to redeem a portion of our Series D Preferred Stock and our Series E Preferred Stock and to pay a portion of the unsecured notes payable to affiliates, as discussed below. Of the $20.0 million of loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment, $15.9 million relates to yield maintenance prepayment penalties for the repayment of the mortgage debt paid and the write-off of the unamortized portion of deferred financing costs and above/below market debt for certain of the refinancings.

We are required by the terms of certain loan documents to meet certain financial covenants, including leverage and liquidity tests, and comply with certain financial reporting requirements. We are in compliance and expect to remain in compliance with all covenants for the next 12 months.

Most of the mortgage loan payables may be prepaid in whole but not in part, subject to applicable prepayment premiums and the terms of certain tax protection agreements to which we are a party. As of September 30, 2015, 32 of our mortgage loan payables had monthly interest-only payments, while 26 of our mortgage loan payables had monthly principal and interest payments.

Secured Credit Facility

The secured facility with Bank of America, N.A. and certain other lenders, or the Secured Credit Facility, is in the aggregate maximum principal amount of $180.0 million and the amount available is based on the lesser of the following: (i) the aggregate commitments of all lenders and (ii) a percentage of the appraised value for all properties. As of September 30, 2015, we had $156.9 million outstanding under the Secured Credit Facility and 13 of our properties were pledged as collateral. As of September 30, 2015, $14.1 million is currently available under the Secured Credit Facility, which is subject to compliance with applicable collateral requirements. We currently do not expect to borrow any additional amounts prior to its maturity on January 4, 2016.

On March 24, 2015, the Secured Credit Facility was amended to, among other things: (i) extend the maturity date to January 4, 2016; (ii) amend certain covenants including the consolidated funded indebtedness to total asset value ratio and the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio; and (iii) waive existing events of default, including the failure to comply with the consolidated funded indebtedness to total asset value ratio for the quarters ended September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014. As amended, the Secured Credit Facility includes certain financial covenants, including (i) a consolidated leverage ratio which requires that consolidated funded indebtedness may not exceed, as of the end of any quarter, 75% of total asset value and (ii) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, which, as of the end of any quarter shall not be less than 1.05:1.00. As of September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all such requirements. We expect to remain in compliance with all covenants through the maturity date.

Pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement governing the terms of the Secured Credit Facility, we and certain of our indirect subsidiaries guaranteed all of the obligations of our operating partnership and each other guarantor under the credit agreement and the related loan documents. From time to time, the operating partnership may cause additional subsidiaries to become guarantors under the credit agreement.

All borrowings under the Secured Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to, at our option, (i) the highest of (A) the federal funds rate, plus one-half of 1% and a margin that fluctuates based on our debt yield, (B) the rate of interest as publicly announced from time to time by Bank of America, N.A. as its prime rate, plus a margin that fluctuates based on our debt yield or (C) the Eurodollar Rate for a one-month interest period plus 1% and a margin that fluctuates based upon our debt yield or (ii) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus a margin that fluctuates based upon our debt yield. As of September 30, 2015, our annual interest rate was 3.44% on principal outstanding of $156.9 million, which represents the Eurodollar Rate, based on a one-month interest period plus a margin of 3.25%.

Line of Credit

On January 22, 2014, we entered into an agreement with Bank Hapoalim, as lender, for a revolving line of credit, or our revolving line of credit, in the aggregate principal amount of up to $10.0 million to be used for our working capital and general corporate purposes. Our revolving line of credit, which was originally scheduled to mature on January 22, 2015, was extended until March 6, 2015 and further extended until March 31, 2015. On March 24, 2015, the revolving line of credit was further amended to extend the maturity date to January 4, 2016 and amend certain covenants. As amended, the revolving line of credit includes certain financial covenants, including (i) a consolidated leverage ratio which requires that consolidated funded indebtedness may not exceed, as of the end of any quarter, 75% of total asset value, (ii) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, which as of the end of any quarter shall not be less than 1.05:1.00 and (iii) a funds from operations, or FFO, covenant which requires us to achieve FFO of at least $1.00 in each fiscal year. We are in compliance and expect to continue to remain in compliance with all covenants through the maturity date. We have pledged $1.5 million in cash and equity interest in certain of our subsidiaries as collateral, which is recorded in restricted cash on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of September 30, 2015, we had $9.9 million outstanding under our revolving line of credit with $100,000 available to be drawn. Our revolving line of credit bears an annual interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a 3.25% margin. As of September 30, 2015, our annual interest rate was 3.44%.

Unsecured Notes Payable to Affiliates

Between May 2013 and October 2014, as part of the earnout consideration in connection with the ELRM Transaction, we also issued to ELRH II unsecured promissory notes, of which an aggregate principal amount of $616,000, remains outstanding as of September 30, 2015. The unsecured notes payable to affiliates matures on the earliest of the fifth anniversary from the applicable date of issuance or the date of our company’s initial public offering on a national securities exchange. Simple interest is payable monthly or can be accrued until maturity at an annual rate of 3.00% at our option.

Preferred Stock and Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

Preferred Stock and Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

Series D Preferred Stock

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had outstanding an aggregate of 7,628,285 shares and 20,976,300 shares, respectively, of our Series D Preferred Stock, to iStar Apartment Holdings LLC, or iStar, and BREDS II Q Landmark LLC, or BREDS, issued at $10.00 per share, for an aggregate amount of $76.3 million and $209.8 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we redeemed 13,348,015 shares of the Series D Preferred Stock and paid all accrued interest related to those shares to iStar and BREDS, using net proceeds from property dispositions and mortgage refinancings. In connection with these partial redemptions, we recorded $1.5 million for the prepayment premiums paid and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs which is recorded in loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends of 14.47% per annum, compounded monthly. A portion of the cumulative cash dividend, or the Series D Current Dividend, is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series D Preferred Stock. On March 1, 2015, the Series D Current Dividend increased from 8.75% to 11% per annum compounded monthly. We may, however, elect to pay up to the full amount of accrued dividends on each dividend payment date. Our failure to pay in full, in cash, any Series D Current Dividend on any applicable payment date will constitute an event of default, which could result in the dividend rate being increased to 19.97% per annum, of which 11% per annum compounded monthly will be due as the Series D Current Dividend on the 15th of each month. Series D Preferred Stock dividends are recorded as preferred dividends classified as interest expense in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we incurred $5.0 million and $8.1 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we incurred $20.8 million and $23.7 million, respectively, of preferred dividends classified as interest expense related to the Series D Preferred Stock.

We are required to redeem all outstanding shares of the Series D Preferred Stock on June 28, 2016, subject to additional one-year extensions upon satisfaction of certain conditions, for a cash payment to the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock in an amount per share equal to $10.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends due under the governing documents. Based on the requirement of redemption for cash, the Series D Preferred Stock is classified as a liability in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Failure to redeem the Series D Preferred Stock by any mandatory redemption date (as extended) will trigger increases in dividends due under the governing documents. If an event of default occurs on our mortgage loan payables, the Secured Credit Facility or other indebtedness and is continuing after an applicable cure period, there will then be an event of default on the Series D Preferred Stock. In addition, in connection with a change of control, the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock have the option to require that we redeem all of the shares outstanding.

In addition, in the event of a triggering event as defined in the Series D Preferred Stock agreements, including a public offering of the company’s common stock, we are obligated to redeem not less than 50% of the shares of the Series D Preferred Stock then outstanding, to the extent sufficient proceeds are raised. This redemption feature met the requirements to be accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. We measured the fair value of this derivative at the issuance date and recorded a liability for approximately $13.5 million with a corresponding discount recorded to the value of the Series D Preferred Stock. The Series D Preferred Stock discount is accreted to its face value through the redemption date as interest expense. The Series D Preferred Stock and the derivative liability are presented together in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as Series D cumulative non-convertible redeemable preferred stock in the amount of $72.4 million and $202.4 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The derivative was recorded at fair value for each reporting period, with changes in fair value being recorded through change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we recorded a decrease in the fair value of the derivative of $3.4 million and $8.2 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2014, this derivative had no fair value. As of February 28, 2015, the derivative expired.

This redemption feature meets the requirements to be accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. We measured the fair value of this derivative at the issuance date and recorded a liability for approximately $6.0 million with a corresponding discount recorded to the value of the Series E Preferred Stock. The Series E Preferred Stock discount is accreted to its face value through the redemption date as interest expense. Interest expense recorded for the accretion of the Series E Preferred Stock discount for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $619,000 and $542,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $1.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

Summary of Rights of Series D Preferred and Series E Preferred Stock

The Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock rank senior to our common stock with respect to, among other things, distribution rights, redemption rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company. In addition to other preferential rights, upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, each holder of Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock is entitled to receive liquidating distributions in cash of certain expenses in an amount equal to $10.00 per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends due under the agreement, before any distribution or payment is made to the holders of our company’s common stock.  Also, pursuant to the protective provisions of the governing documents designating the Series D Preferred Stock, or the Series D Preferred Stock agreements, and Series E Preferred Stock, or the Series E Preferred Stock agreements, we may not, without the prior written consent of iStar and BREDS, take certain corporate actions, including, but not limited to, amending our charter or bylaws or entering into material contracts. In addition, under the terms of the Series D Preferred Stock agreements and Series E Preferred Stock agreements, we are required to use any net proceeds from the sale of our properties or loan refinancings to redeem a portion of the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock.

Holders of the shares of our Series D Preferred Stock and our Series E Preferred Stock vote together as a single class for the election of the iStar director and the BREDS director. In addition, subject to certain limitations, holders of the shares of our Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock will vote together as a single class with the holders of our company’s common stock on any matter presented to the common stockholders for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders or, to the extent permitted, by written consent in lieu of a meeting.  Subject to certain limitations, each holder of outstanding shares of our Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the quotient, rounded down to the nearest whole number of votes, obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate liquidation preference of the shares of Preferred Stock held by such holder as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter by (B) the book value per share (each as defined in our charter).  Effectively, the holders of the shares of our Series D Preferred Stock and our Series E Preferred Stock could account for a quorum at any meeting of our company’s shareholders and, to the extent such holders, voted their respective shares in the same manner, such holders could effectively control the outcome of any matter submitted to the shareholders for approval.

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

In connection with prior issuances of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock, which were redeemed on June 28, 2013, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of $60.0 million in shares of our common stock at an exercise price per share of common stock equal to: (i) $9.00 if the warrants are being exercised in connection with a “change of control” (as such term is defined in the form of warrant); or (ii) the greater of $9.00 and 80% of the public offering price of our common stock in our first underwritten public offering, in conjunction with which our common stock is listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange if the warrants are being exercised during the 60-day period following such underwritten public offering. The warrants remained outstanding subsequent to the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock and will become exercisable at any time and from time to time prior to their expiration following the completion of an underwritten public offering and in connection with a change of control. The warrants issued on August 3, 2012 for $50.0 million worth of common stock expired on August 3, 2015, leaving warrants issued on February 27, 2013 for $10.0 million worth of common stock outstanding. In general, the remaining February 27, 2013 warrants will immediately expire and cease to be exercisable upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the close of business on February 27, 2016; (ii) the close of business on the date that is 60 days after the completion of the underwritten public offering (or the next succeeding business day); (iii) the consummation of a “Qualified Company Acquisition” (as such term is defined in the form of warrant); and (iv) the cancellation of the warrants by our company, at its option or at the option of the warrant holder, in connection with a change of control (other than a Qualified Company Acquisition).

We measured the fair value of the warrants as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 resulting in our recording $0 and $663,000, respectively, reflected in security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrants are recorded at fair value for each reporting period with changes in fair value being recorded in change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recorded a decrease in the fair value of the warrants of $71,000 and an increase of $37,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recorded a decrease in the fair value of $663,000 and $1.2 million, respectively.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

Restructuring and Impairment Charges

Restructuring and Impairment Charges

In late 2014, our audit committee initiated an investigation into certain operational and financial matters and engaged outside advisors to assist it in connection with the investigation. Upon consideration of the work conducted in the audit committee’s investigation and other factors, our board, upon the recommendation of the audit committee, determined to negotiate and enter into separation agreements with three former executives. In conjunction with this, our board approved a shift in strategic direction of our company subsequent to the determination to enter into separation agreements with our three former executive officers. This shift is geared toward a focus on the long term equity capitalization of the company, an overall corporate expense reduction, and a reduction of our third party property management business. The plan is being accomplished via reassignment of internal operational duties, reduction in staff, elimination of a prior executive office, transferring of 11 of our 16 third party managed properties to affiliates of their owners (which occurred on April 1, 2015), changes in personnel, and the elimination of a focus on certain financing activities that were determined to not be in the best long term interests of our shareholders. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we sold our equity interest in two of our managed equity properties while two of our managed equity investment properties and one of our managed third party properties were sold by their owners and, since September 30, 2015, another one of our managed third party properties was sold by its owner and, therefore, we no longer manage all of those properties. Based on the reduction of future economic benefits, we determined that our goodwill should be further impaired.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded $8.0 million in charges directly attributable to these changes in restructuring and impairment charges in our consolidated statement of comprehensive operations. Of the $8.0 million in restructuring and impairment charges that we expensed, $2.0 million remained in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2014. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded $544,000 and $2.2 million of restructuring and impairment charges, respectively, in which $48,000 and $510,000, respectively, related to additional accounting and legal fees in conjunction with restructuring and the remainder related to an impairment of goodwill in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we paid $611,000 for legal fees, $1,105,000 for severance and $357,000 of other accruals, leaving a remaining balance of $437,000 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2015, which will be paid in full by February 2016.

Total Units		2,182

As of the date of disposal, the properties had a net carrying value of $126.6 million. Four of the mortgage loans related to these dispositions, in the aggregate amount of $65.6 million, were directly assumed by the buyers. We incurred expenses and adjustments of $2.8 million associated with the dispositions. Our gain on the sale of the properties was $4.2 million, net of $1.7 million in taxes due during the first quarter of 2015 related to a tax protection agreement for a prior year disposition. The net proceeds from these dispositions were used to redeem our 8.75% Series D Cumulative Non-Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, or our Series D Preferred Stock, and our 9.25% Series E Cumulative Non-Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, or our Series E Preferred Stock, during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Of the $20.0 million of loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment as of September 30, 2015, $1.3 million related to our property dispositions including a yield maintenance prepayment penalty for the repayment of the mortgage debt paid directly to lenders and the write-off of the unamortized portions of deferred financing costs and above/below market debt.

On June 24, 2015, we sold our 20% equity interest in each of two of our managed equity investment properties, Landmark at Waverly Place and The Fountains, which comprised 750 units for $6.9 million, recognizing a gain on the sale of $3.0 million which is included in income/(loss) and gain on sale from unconsolidated entities in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations discussed further below in Note 5, Investments in Unconsolidated Entities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the following three properties were sold for a combined sales price of $40.5 million. Our gain on the sale of the apartment communities was $7.5 million.

2015 Property Acquisitions

We did not complete any acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

2014 Property Acquisitions

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we completed the acquisition of 14 consolidated properties, including six properties held through consolidated joint ventures, adding a total of 5,099 apartment units to our property portfolio. The aggregate purchase price was approximately $406.4 million, plus closing costs and acquisition fees of $2.2 million, which are included in acquisition-related expenses in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

Results of operations for the property acquisitions are reflected in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 for the period subsequent to the acquisition dates. For the period from the acquisition dates through September 30, 2014, we recognized $31.8 million in revenues and $8.2 million in net loss for the newly-acquired properties.

The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the time of acquisition (in thousands):

	September 30, 2014
Land	$	65,919
Land improvements	23,095
Building and improvements	299,676
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	7,139
In-place leases	12,459
(Above)/below market leases	(1,254		)
Fair market value of assumed debt	(181,118		)
Acquisition contingent consideration	(2,700		)
Other assets/liabilities, net	(873		)
Total	222,343
Equity/limited partnership unit consideration	(91,318		)
Net cash consideration	$	131,025

In accordance with ASC Topic 805, we allocated the purchase price of the 14 properties to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including allocating to the intangibles associated with the in-place leases, above/below market leases and assumed debt. The purchase price accounting is final with no adjustments since December 31, 2014.

Pro Forma Financial Data (Unaudited)

Assuming the acquisitions of the 14 consolidated properties that were acquired in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 had occurred on January 1, 2013, pro forma revenues, net loss, net loss attributable to controlling interest and net loss per common share attributable to controlling interest — basic and diluted, would have been as follows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 (in thousands, except per share data):

	Three Months Ended September 30, 2014			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014
Revenues	$	66,812		$	199,105
Net loss	$	(10,474	)	$	(37,183	)
Net loss attributable to controlling interest	$	(4,040	)	$	(14,343	)
Net loss per common share attributable to controlling interest — basic and diluted	$	(0.16	)	$	(0.57	)

The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have been obtained had these transactions occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, nor are they necessarily indicative of future operating results.
