Future Minimum Lease Payments

We currently lease portions of the land underlying two of our office properties.  We expensed ground lease payments of $606 thousand and $543 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.  We have a purchase option in one of these two leases, which we may exercise at any time prior to August 29, 2014 for a purchase price of $27.5 million.  Because we have the ability and the intent to exercise this option, we have excluded payments under this lease from the future minimum rent payments in the table below.  The following is a schedule (in thousands) of our minimum ground lease payments as of June 30, 2014:
