On June 29, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement terminating a participation right contained in the contract for the sale of West Windsor, a 659-acre parcel of land located in West Windsor, New Jersey, that occurred in October 2019. As consideration, the Company received an $8.0 million termination payment in July of 2020, which is included in Gain (loss) on sale or disposal of real estate and other assets, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and in Accounts receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2020.

On March 13, 2020, the Company closed on the sale of its property at 100 Fellowship Drive, a 13.5-acre land parcel and 203,257-square-foot build-to-suit medical building with approximately 550 surface parking spaces in The Woodlands, Texas, for a total sales price of $115.0 million. The Company had previously entered into a lease agreement related to this property in November of 2019, and at lease commencement, the Company derecognized $63.7 million from Developments and recorded an initial net investment in lease receivable of $75.9 million on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, recognizing $13.5 million of Selling profit from the sales-type lease on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The sale of 100 Fellowship Drive resulted in an additional gain of $38.3 million in the first quarter of 2020, which is included in Gain (loss) on sale or disposal of real estate and other assets, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The carrying value of the net investment in lease receivable was approximately $76.1 million at the time of sale. Gain on sale is calculated as the difference between the purchase price of $115.0 million, and the asset’s carrying value, less related transaction costs of approximately $0.2 million. Contemporaneous with the sale, the Company credited to the buyer approximately $0.6 million for operating account funds and the buyer’s assumption of the related liabilities. After the sale, the Company had no continuing involvement in this lease. After repayment of debt associated with the property, the sale generated approximately $64.2 million in net proceeds, which are presented as cash inflows from operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
