1.      Organization and Business

CapLease, Inc. (“CapLease” and collectively with its majority-owned subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, that primarily owns and manages a diversified portfolio of single tenant commercial real estate properties subject to long-term leases to high credit quality tenants. Many of the properties the Company owns are subject to a net lease, or a lease that requires the tenant to pay all or substantially all property operating expenses, such as utilities, real estate taxes, insurance and routine maintenance. 

The Company’s tenants are primarily large public companies or their significant operating subsidiaries and governmental entities with investment grade credit ratings, defined as a published senior unsecured credit rating of BBB-/Baa3 or above from one or both of Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) and Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”). The Company also implies an investment grade credit rating for tenants that are not publicly rated by S&P or Moody’s but (i) are 100% owned by an investment grade parent, (ii) for which it has obtained a private investment grade rating from either S&P or Moody’s, (iii) for which it has evaluated the creditworthiness of the tenant and estimated a credit rating that is consistent with an investment grade rating from S&P or Moody’s, or (iv) are governmental entity branches or units of another investment grade rated governmental entity.

In addition to its portfolio of owned properties, the Company has a modest portfolio of first mortgage loans and other debt investments on single tenant properties.

The Company has invested in certain owned properties that are leased primarily but not exclusively by one tenant. The Company has also invested in certain owned properties which were previously leased by one tenant but as a result of lease non-renewals have now become multi-tenant properties. The Company expects these types of properties will continue to comprise a portion of its portfolio for the foreseeable future.

CapLease has made an election to qualify, and believes it is operating so as to qualify, as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. As such, it will generally not be subject to federal income tax on that portion of its taxable income that is distributed to stockholders if it distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders by prescribed dates and complies with various other requirements.

CapLease conducts its business through a variety of subsidiaries. CapLease owns most of its owned properties through its predecessor and operating partnership, Caplease, LP (the “Operating Partnership”). CapLease is the indirect sole general partner of, and owns approximately 99.8% of the common equity of, the Operating Partnership.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared under GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. The operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and notes thereto, included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 21, 2013.

2.      Merger Agreement

On May 28, 2013, CapLease, and certain subsidiaries of CapLease, including the Operating Partnership, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with American Realty Capital Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“ARCP”), ARC Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and the operating partnership of ARCP (the “ARCP Operating Partnership”), and Safari Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of ARCP (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provides for (i) the merger of CapLease with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of ARCP, and (ii) the merger of the Operating Partnership with and into ARCP Operating Partnership, with ARCP Operating Partnership surviving (the “Partnership Merger” and, together with the Merger, the “Mergers”). The Board of Directors of CapLease has unanimously approved the Merger Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, directed that the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement be submitted for consideration at a meeting of the holders of CapLease’s common stock, and resolved to recommend that the holders of CapLease common stock vote in favor of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each outstanding share of CapLease common stock, other than shares owned by ARCP, CapLease or any of their respective wholly owned subsidiaries, will be converted into the right to receive $8.50 in cash without interest (the “Common Merger Consideration”). Each outstanding share of CapLease preferred stock, other than shares owned by ARCP, CapLease or any of their respective wholly owned subsidiaries, will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the sum of $25.00 plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares up to, but excluding, the closing date of the Merger. The CapLease preferred stock consists of (i) 8.125% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, (ii) 8.375% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock and (iii) 7.25% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. In addition, in connection with the Partnership Merger, each outstanding unit of equity ownership of the Operating Partnership other than units owned by CapLease or any wholly owned subsidiary of CapLease will be converted into the right to receive $8.50 in cash, without interest.

The Merger Agreement provides that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, any outstanding shares of restricted stock held by any employee of the Company on the closing date of the Merger will become fully vested and will have the right to receive the Common Merger Consideration. The Merger Agreement also provides that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, any outstanding performance share unit awards held by any employee of the Company on the closing date of the Merger will become fully earned and settled as to 100% of the target number of shares of CapLease common stock, and all shares of CapLease common stock outstanding as a result of such settlement will have the right to receive the Common Merger Consideration.

Consummation of the Mergers is subject to various conditions, including, among other things, the approval by CapLease’s stockholders of the Merger, and the absence of any law, order or injunction prohibiting the consummation of the Mergers. Moreover, each party’s obligation to consummate the Mergers is subject to certain other conditions, including the accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties (subject to customary qualifications) and the other party’s material compliance with its covenants and agreements contained in the Merger Agreement.

ARCP and CapLease have made certain customary representations and warranties to each other in the Merger Agreement. CapLease has also made certain covenants relating to the conduct of its business between the date of the Merger Agreement and the closing of the Merger and other matters, including the “go-shop” and “no-shop” covenants described below.

As permitted pursuant to the “go-shop” provisions of the Merger Agreement, CapLease conducted an extensive marketing process to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties for a 40 day period beginning immediately upon execution of the Merger Agreement on May 28, 2013 (the “Go Shop Period”). During the Go Shop Period which expired on July 7, 2013 (the “No Shop Period Start Date”), CapLease was authorized to and with the assistance of its financial advisor, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, did initiate, solicit and encourage alternative acquisition proposals from third parties, including by providing non-public information to a variety of third parties. However, such actions did not result in any alternative acquisition proposals. Starting on the No Shop Period Start Date, the Go Shop Period expired and CapLease became subject to customary “no-shop” covenants which prohibit CapLease from soliciting alternative acquisition proposals from third parties, but permit it to respond to any unsolicited alternative acquisition proposal that meets certain conditions.

The Merger Agreement also includes certain termination rights for both ARCP and CapLease and provides that, in connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement, under specified circumstances, CapLease may be required to pay ARCP a termination fee of $21,000 and reimburse ARCP’s transaction expenses in an amount equal to $4,000.

3.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the Company. Results of operations of properties acquired are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition. All significant intercompany transactions, balances and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

References in these financial statements to the Company’s carrying amount or value of an asset or liability means such asset’s or liability’s book value reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet in accordance with GAAP.

Accounting for Real Estate

Real estate held for investment is carried on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at historical cost to the Company, less accumulated depreciation, amortization and impairment charges. Depreciation and amortization are determined by the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic useful lives of the properties. The Company generally depreciates building and building improvements over periods not exceeding 40 years. Direct costs incurred in acquiring completed properties that meet the classification of a business for accounting purposes are charged to operations as incurred. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs of owned properties are also charged to operations as incurred. Significant renovations which extend the useful life of the properties are capitalized.

The Company reviews its owned real properties for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. The evaluation includes estimating and reviewing anticipated future undiscounted cash flows to be derived from the asset. If such cash flows are less than the asset’s net carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized to earnings to the extent by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. Estimating future cash flows is highly subjective and includes an evaluation of factors such as the anticipated cash flows from the property, which may include rent from current leases in place and projected future leases, estimated capital expenditures, and an estimate of proceeds to be realized upon sale of the property. The Company’s estimates could differ materially from actual results. The Company has determined that the significant inputs used to evaluate its owned properties for impairment primarily rely on Level 3 inputs in accordance with the fair value measurement topic in the applicable accounting guidance as described in Note 8 below. The Company did not recognize any impairment losses on long-lived assets during the six months ended June 30, 2013. The Company did not recognize any impairment losses on long-lived assets during the six months ended June 30, 2012, although it did recognize a loss on sale of one real property during the quarter ended June 30, 2012. See Note 7.

Assets and liabilities of properties that meet various held for sale criteria, including that it is probable that a sale will occur within 12 months, are presented separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with assets and liabilities being separately stated. The operating results of properties held for sale and those that have been sold are reflected as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Properties that the Company has determined to classify as held for sale are also required to be simultaneously reviewed for impairment and carried on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at the lower of net carrying value or estimated fair value.

The Company is required under GAAP to allocate the purchase price of rental real estate acquired to the following based on estimated fair values on the acquisition date:

● acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements; and

● identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of above-market and below-market leases, in-place leases and tenant relationships.

The fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired is considered to be a Level 3 input in accordance with the fair value measurement topic in the applicable accounting guidance as described in Note 8 below. In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence activities and other market data, and utilizes various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs, and available market information. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant (the “dark value”).

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are recorded based on the present value of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease. Fair market lease rates are measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market rate renewal options for below-market leases. In computing present value, the Company considers the costs which would need to be invested to achieve the fair market lease rates. The Company uses a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining term of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market renewal options of the respective leases.

Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values and tenant relationship values which are based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with the respective tenant. Factors considered by management in its analysis of in-place lease values include estimates of the dark value of the property, carrying costs during the hypothetical expected time it would take management to find a tenant to lease the space for the existing lease term (a “lease-up period”) considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. Management estimates carrying costs, including such factors as real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses during the expected lease-up period, considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, management considers leasing commissions and other related expenses. Characteristics considered by management in estimating the value of tenant relationships include the nature and extent of the Company’s existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals. The value of in-place leases is amortized as a component of depreciation expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationship intangibles, if any, is amortized as a component of depreciation expense over the anticipated life of the relationships. Through June 30, 2013, the Company has assigned no value to tenant relationships on any of its acquisitions.

For property acquisitions where the Company assumes existing mortgage debt, the debt is recorded at its estimated fair value, based on management’s estimate of current borrowing rates available for comparable financing. The Company amortizes any discount or premium as part of interest expense on the related debt using the effective interest method.

Development Activities

Project costs and expenses, which include interest expense, associated with the development, construction and lease-up of a real estate project are capitalized as construction in progress. Once the development and construction of the building is substantially completed, the amounts capitalized to construction in progress are transferred to (i) land and (ii) buildings and improvements. As required by GAAP, the Company computes interest expense on the full amount it has invested in the project, whether or not such investment is externally financed.

Loan Investments

The Company classifies its loans as long-term investments, as its strategy is to hold the loans for the foreseeable future or until maturity. Loan investments are carried on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet at amortized cost (unpaid principal balance adjusted for unearned discount or premium and loan origination fees), net of any allowance for loan losses. Unearned discounts or premiums and loan origination fees are amortized as a component of interest income using the effective interest method over the life of the loan.

From time to time, the Company may determine to sell a loan in which case it must reclassify the asset as held for sale. Loans held for sale are carried at lower of cost or estimated fair value. The Company did not sell any of its loan investments during the six months ended June 30, 2013, and, as of June 30, 2013, the Company has not classified any of its loans as held for sale. The Company also did not sell any of its loan investments during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

The Company evaluates its loan investments for possible impairment on a quarterly basis. The Company’s impairment analysis includes both a general reserve component and an asset-specific component. The general reserve component covers performing loans and in accordance with relevant accounting guidance an allowance for loan losses is recorded when (i) available information as of each balance sheet date indicates that it is probable a loss has occurred in the portfolio and (ii) the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Actual loan losses are then charged against the allowance when management believes that uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Significant judgment is required in determining reserve balances for the performing loan portfolio, including estimates of the likelihood of default and lease rejection given the credit characteristics of the tenant, and estimates of stressed collateral values and potential bankruptcy claim recoveries. These estimates are highly subjective and could differ materially from actual results. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has a general loan loss reserve of $500. See Note 5.

The asset-specific component of the loan loss impairment analysis relates to specific loans where the Company has deemed it probable that it will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. Any resulting loan specific loss is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows from the loan or the fair value of the loan collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent. Significant judgment is required in determining any resulting loan specific loss, including factors such as the status of the loans (i.e., current or actual or expected payment or other defaults), the credit quality of the underlying tenants, the present value of expected future cash flows on the loans, the fair value of any collateral, and the amount and status of any senior debt. These estimates are highly subjective and could differ materially from actual results. The Company’s accounting policy is to continue to accrue interest income on specific impaired loans as long as it concludes it is likely to collect it. As of June 30, 2013, the Company did not have any asset-specific loan loss reserves.

Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities

The Company classifies all of its securities investments as “available for sale” for financial accounting purposes. Under GAAP, securities classified as “available for sale” are carried on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value with the net unrealized gains or losses included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), a component of Stockholders’ Equity on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Any premiums or discounts on securities are amortized as a component of interest income using the effective interest method.

The Company estimates fair value on all securities investments quarterly based on a variety of inputs. Under applicable accounting guidance, securities where the fair value is less than the Company’s cost are deemed “impaired,” and, therefore, must be measured for “other-than-temporary impairment.” If an impaired security (i.e., fair value below cost) is intended to be sold or required to be sold prior to expected recovery of the impairment loss, the full amount of the loss must be charged to earnings as other-than-temporary impairment. Otherwise, impairment losses on the security must be further analyzed for separation into two categories: (i) credit losses and (ii) losses due to factors other than credit. The portion which is considered credit loss is charged to earnings as other-than-temporary impairment. The portion which is due to other factors is not charged to earnings. Also, if the security is classified as available for sale, the non-credit portion of the impairment loss is charged to other comprehensive income (loss), a component of equity on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

In estimating credit or other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers a variety of factors including (1) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the credit, including credit rating of the security and the underlying tenant and an estimate of the likelihood, amount and expected timing of any default, (2) whether the Company expects to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery in fair value, (3) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been below cost, (4) current market conditions, (5) expected cash flows from the underlying collateral and an estimate of underlying collateral values, and (6) subordination levels within the securitization pool. These estimates are highly subjective and could differ materially from actual results. The Company had no other-than-temporary impairment losses on securities charged to the Statement of Operations during the six months ended June 30, 2013. The Company also had no other-than-temporary impairment losses on securities charged to the Statement of Operations during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Deferred Fees and Costs

In connection with its leasing efforts, the Company may incur primarily two types of costs: (i) allowances paid to the tenant or on its behalf for the construction of leasehold improvements, or tenant improvement allowances, and (ii) commissions paid to leasing brokers, or leasing commissions. Tenant improvement allowances are initially capitalized as part of “Construction in progress” and then transferred to “Building and improvements” at completion and depreciated on a straight-line basis over periods not exceeding 40 years. Leasing commissions are capitalized as “Deferred leasing costs” (a component of “Other assets” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet) and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease.

In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Company defers the recognition of fees and expenses associated with the origination of its loans held for investment. These items include lender fee income, rate lock income, direct loan origination costs, certain legal expenses, insurance costs, rating agency fees and certain other expenses. Net deferred fees and costs are presented as an offset to the carrying amount of loans held for investment on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet and are recognized as an adjustment to the effective yield over the life of the related asset.

The Company also defers the recognition of expenses associated with the issuance of its debt obligations. These items include placement fees, lender fees, legal expenses, broker fees and certain other expenses. Deferred debt issuance costs are presented as a component of “Other assets” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet and are recognized as an adjustment to the effective financing rate over the term of the related debt obligation. Upon the retirement of the related debt obligation, any unamortized debt issuance costs are charged off as a component of gain or loss on extinguishment of debt.

Costs incurred in connection with debt obligations that have been modified or restructured are subject to the provisions of FASB ASC 470-50, Debt -- Modification and Extinguishment. If the terms of the modified debt instrument are deemed to be substantially different (i.e., a 10 percent or greater difference in the present value of cash flows between instruments), the original debt is deemed extinguished and all unamortized financing costs associated with the extinguished debt are charged to earnings in the current period. If the cash flows are deemed to be not substantially different, the original debt is deemed modified and the unamortized financing costs and any additional costs between the borrower and lender in connection with the modification are capitalized and amortized into interest expense over the remaining term of the related debt instrument, and other related costs of the modification are expensed.

Risk Management Transactions

The Company may enter into risk management transactions as part of its overall portfolio financing strategy. These transactions are intended to manage the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates associated with its present or expected future debt obligations. As of June 30, 2013, the Company was party to a single risk management transaction to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates under the loan agreement with Bank of Oklahoma which is a floating rate borrowing facility. See Note 13. The Company accounts for the interest rate swap agreement in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“Topic 815”). In accordance with Topic 815, the agreement is carried on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at its fair value, as an asset if fair value is positive, or as a liability if fair value is negative. Since the interest rate swap is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the interest rate swap’s change in fair value is reported as a component of Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets; the ineffective portion, if any, is recognized directly in earnings. The fixed rate interest rate payments that the Company makes pursuant to the swap agreement are recognized as a component of interest expense on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company has been party to other risk management transactions in the past and these transactions continue to impact the Company’s current results through amortization of the effective portion under GAAP of the realized gains and losses on these transactions into interest expense on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 13.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company defines cash equivalents as highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less at date of purchase. From time to time, the Company’s account balance held at financial institutions exceeds Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance coverage and, as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to the balance on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. The Company believes that the risk of loss is not significant.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes rental revenue on real estate on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable term of the lease. The excess of straight-line rents over base rents under the lease is included in “Accrued rental income” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet and any excess of base rents over the straight-line amount is included as “Deferred rental income” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company’s leases also generally require the tenants to pay directly or reimburse the Company for occupancy and operating costs of the properties, or in certain cases reimburse the Company for increases in certain operating costs and real estate taxes above their base year costs. The Company recognizes such income in the period the related expenses are incurred.

Interest income from loans, securities, and structuring fees receivable is recognized on the accrual basis of accounting. Interest income from securities (including interest-only strips) is recognized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. The cost basis of interest-only strips is adjusted to reflect any prepayments from underlying assets, using the initial yield-to-maturity at the purchase date. The Company has adopted the cost-recovery method, in which all receipts are applied to reduce the Company’s cost basis, on a limited number of its securities investments.

On occasion, the Company may consider a loan to be non-performing and place the loan on non-accrual status when there is sufficient doubt as to the ultimate ability to collect interest on the loan. While on non-accrual status, the loan is accounted for on either a cash basis, in which case interest income is recognized only upon actual receipt, or on a cost-recovery basis based upon management’s judgment as to the collectibility of the investment.

Income Taxes

CapLease has made an election to qualify, and believes it is operating so as to qualify, as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. As such, it will generally not be subject to federal income tax on that portion of its taxable income that is distributed to stockholders if it distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders by prescribed dates and complies with various other requirements. From time to time, the Company may conduct a portion of its business through a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”), and the income from the activities of the TRS is subject to federal and state taxation at the applicable corporate rates.

Earnings per Share

As required by GAAP, the Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) allocable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, where such exercise or conversion would result in a lower EPS amount. For the 2013 periods, the Company’s computation of diluted EPS includes 128,900 shares of common stock, which represents the target number of shares of common stock associated with outstanding performance share unit awards. As described in Note 2 above, the performance share unit awards will become fully earned and settled as to 100% of the target number of shares of common stock on the closing date of the Merger, and all such settled shares will have the right to receive the Common Merger Consideration. The Company’s computation of diluted earnings per share does not include shares of common stock that may be issued in the future upon conversion of the convertible senior notes issued in October 2007, as the impact would not be dilutive. The number of weighted average common shares not included was 1,697,595 for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and 3,093,759 for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new accounting guidance ASU 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs, which amends various sections of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 and changes the wording used to describe the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in order to improve consistency in the application and description of fair value between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). ASU 2011-04 clarifies how the concepts of highest and best use and valuation premise in a fair value measurement are relevant only when measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets and are not relevant when measuring the fair value of financial assets or of liabilities. In addition, the guidance expanded the disclosures for the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements, requiring quantitative information to be disclosed related to (1) the valuation processes used, (2) the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs, and (3) use of a nonfinancial asset in a way that differs from the asset’s highest and best use. The revised guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and early application by public entities is prohibited. ASU 2011-04 is to be applied prospectively. The Company’s adoption of this ASU for the reporting period ended March 31, 2012, as required, did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which amends various sections of ASC 220 and allows an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments in ASU 2011-05 do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. ASU 2011-05 should be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the amendments in ASU 2011-05 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company elected early adoption of this ASU for the reporting period ended December 31, 2011, as permitted by the ASU. The Company’s adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance ASU 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standard Update No. 2011-05, which amends various sections of ASC 220-10. The amended sections indefinitely defer the effective date of the presentation of reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income, which ASU 2011-05 would require. All other requirements of ASU 2011-05 are unaffected by this new guidance. For public entities, the amendments in ASU 2011-12 are effective concurrent with ASU 2011-05, for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company elected to adopt this ASU for the reporting period ended December 31, 2011, as it is required to be adopted concurrently with ASU 2011-05. The Company’s adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (ASC Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.  ASU No. 2011-11 creates new disclosure requirements about the nature of an entity’s rights of setoff and related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments.  The changes to the ASC as a result of this update are effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 (January 1, 2013 for the Company) and must be shown retrospectively for all comparative periods presented.  The Company’s adoption of this ASU for the reporting period ended March 31, 2013, as required, did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance ASU No. 2011-10, Derecognition of in Substance Real Estate – a Scope Clarification, which amends ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment.  ASU No. 2011-10 states that when an investor ceases to have a controlling financial interest in an entity that is in-substance real estate as a result of a default on the entity’s nonrecourse debt, the investor should apply the guidance under ASC Subtopic 360-20, Property, Plant and Equipment – Real Estate Sales to determine whether to derecognize the entity’s assets (including real estate) and liabilities (including the nonrecourse debt).  The changes to the ASC as a result of this update are effective prospectively for deconsolidation events occurring during fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2012 (January 1, 2013 for the Company).  The Company’s adoption of this ASU for the reporting period ended March 31, 2013, as required, did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued new accounting guidance ASU 2012-02, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 250): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, which amends various sections of ASC 350. The amendments update guidance with respect to annual impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets. The standards update is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, and early adoption is permitted. The Company’s adoption of this ASU for the reporting period ended March 31, 2013, as required, did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued new accounting guidance ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, an amendment to FASB ASC Topic 220. ASU No. 2013-02 requires disclosure of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts not reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. This ASU is effective prospectively for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company’s adoption of this ASU for the reporting period ended March 31, 2013, as required, did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. There was no effect on net income (loss) or equity related to these reclassifications.

Owned Property Investment and Financing Strategy

Nearly all of the Company’s owned properties are subject to financing and have been pledged as collateral to the Company’s lender that has provided the applicable financing. Many of these properties are owned and financed on a long-term basis with fixed rate, non-recourse debt. Each property is owned through a separate and distinct special purpose entity, or SPE, with the property and the related lease or leases on the property generally representing the sole assets of the SPE and the sole collateral available to the Company’s lender in the event the Company defaults on the debt that finances the property. Also see Note 10. Certain of the Company’s owned properties are pledged to Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as lender under the revolving credit agreement described at Note 10, to secure the Company’s borrowings from time to time outstanding thereunder. These properties are otherwise unencumbered and the related debt can be repaid and the lender’s lien released at any time without payment of a penalty or premium to the lender.

5.      Loans Held for Investment

Loans held for investment at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, are summarized in the following table. These investments consist predominantly of mortgage loans on properties subject to leases to investment grade tenants. As of June 30, 2013, the weighted average credit rating of the underlying tenants was BBB+ from Standard & Poor’s. As of June 30, 2013, none of the Company’s loans held for investment were on non-accrual status or past due 90 days or more.

	Jun 30, 2013			Dec 31, 2012
	Unaudited
Principal	$	28,350		$	31,329
Discount		(3,732	)		(3,797	)
Cost basis		24,618			27,532
Allowance for loan losses		(500	)		(500	)
Carrying amount of loans		24,118			27,032
Deferred origination fees, net		(57	)		(60	)
Total	$	24,061		$	26,972

As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s loan investments carried interest rates ranging from 5.28% to 7.24%. As of December 31, 2012, the Company’s loan investments carried interest rates ranging from 5.28% to 9.32%. During May 2013, the mortgage loan on the property in Wilmington, DE leased to Hercules Incorporated matured and was paid in full. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the weighted average effective interest rate on the Company’s loan investments, as measured against its cost basis, was 6.6% and 6.9%, respectively.

The Company’s loan portfolio is comprised primarily of fully amortizing or nearly fully amortizing first mortgage loans on commercial real estate leased to a single tenant. Payments of debt service on the Company’s loans is, in substantially all cases, funded directly by rent payments paid into a lockbox account by the underlying tenant. Therefore, the Company’s monitoring of the credit quality of its loans held for investment is focused primarily on an analysis of the tenant, including review of tenant credit ratings (including changes in ratings) and other measures of tenant credit quality, trends in the tenant’s industry and general economic conditions, and an analysis of measures of collateral coverage, such as an estimate of the loan’s loan-to-value (LTV) ratio (principal amount outstanding divided by estimated value of the property) and its remaining term until maturity.

The Company evaluated each of its securities for other-than-temporary impairment at June 30, 2013, and determined that no other-than-temporary impairment charges on its securities were appropriate.    

Unrealized gains and losses on securities at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, included as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet, consisted of the following, and did not include any other-than-temporary impairment charges:

	Jun 30, 2013			Dec 31, 2012
	Unaudited
Unrealized gains on securities available for sale	$	3,069		$	4,304
Unrealized losses on securities available for sale		(2,582	)		(3,824	)

The following table summarizes the Company’s securities in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2013.

	Aggregate Fair Value		Aggregate Unrealized Loss		Number of Securities
In unrealized loss position 12 or more consecutive months	$	32,346	$	2,582		4

Credit ratings on the 4 securities in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months as of June 30, 2013, range from AAA to B- with a weighted average of B and those securities have a weighted average maturity of approximately 6.0 years. The Company believes that none of the unrealized losses on investment securities are other-than-temporary because management expects the Company will receive all contractual principal and interest related to these investments. In addition, the Company did not have the intent to sell the securities or believe it would be required to sell them as of June 30, 2013.

At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the weighted average effective interest rate (yield to maturity on adjusted cost basis) on securities was approximately 8.6% and 8.4%, respectively.

7.      Assets Sold and Discontinued Operations

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013

The Company did not sell any assets during the six months ended June 30, 2013, and has not classified any assets as held for sale as of June 30, 2013.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

The Company sold one investment during the six months ended June 30, 2012. During June 2012, the Company sold the vacant Johnston, Rhode Island property to the former tenant at the building. As part of the sale, the Company also settled its litigation with the former tenant regarding its end-of-lease surrender obligations. The Company sold the property for a cash purchase price of $9,750, before transactions expenses. The Company recognized a loss on such sale during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, of $15,229. The loss is included as a component of discontinued operations under the caption “Loss on investments” on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. The operating results of the sold property have been reclassified as a component of discontinued operations for all periods presented.

8.      Fair Value

The Company is required to disclose fair value information about all of its financial instruments (as defined under prevailing accounting guidance), whether or not these instruments are measured at fair value on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Under such guidance, substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities other than its owned property investments are classified as financial instruments.

The Company estimates that the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, other assets, accounts payable and other liabilities, and dividends and distributions payable approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturities of these items.

The carrying amounts, notional or face amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s other financial instruments (as defined under GAAP) at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, are as follows:

		Carrying Amount				Notional Amount				Estimated Fair Value
		6/30/2013		12/31/2012		6/30/2013		12/31/2012		6/30/2013		12/31/2012
Assets:		Unaudited				Unaudited				Unaudited
	Loans held for investment	$	24,118	$	27,032	$	28,350	$	31,329	$	26,605	$	31,303
	Commercial mortgage-backed securities		58,859		62,318		73,006		76,368		58,859		62,318
	Derivative assets		97	–			31,000	–			97	–
Liabilities:
	Mortgages on real estate investments	$	991,483	$	1,012,075	$	990,442	$	1,010,754	$	1,037,984	$	1,072,963
	Credit agreements		99,457		67,655		99,457		67,655		99,457		67,655
	Secured term loan		63,045		72,417		63,045		72,417		63,266		68,750
	Convertible senior notes		19,210		19,210		19,210		19,210		19,204		19,202
	Other long-term debt		30,930		30,930		30,930		30,930		26,754		29,736

The fair values indicated above are indicative of the interest rate and credit spread environment as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and may not take into consideration the effects of subsequent changes in interest rates, credit spreads and ratings of the underlying tenants on the related leases. The methodologies used and key assumptions made to estimate fair values are as follows:

Loans held for investment— The fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate loan portfolio is estimated with a discounted cash flow analysis, utilizing scheduled cash flows and discount rates estimated by management to approximate those that a willing buyer and seller might use.

Commercial mortgage-backed securities— The fair values of the securities reflect management’s best estimate and require a considerable amount of judgment and assumptions. Management evaluates a variety of inputs and then estimates fair value based on those inputs. The primary inputs evaluated by management are broker quotations, collateral values, subordination levels, and liquidity of the security.

Credit agreements— Management believes that the stated interest rate (which floats based on short-term interest rates) approximates market rates (when compared to similar credit facilities with similar credit risk). As such, the fair value of these obligations is estimated to be equal to the outstanding principal amount.

Mortgages on real estate investments and secured term loan — The fair value of mortgages payable on real estate investments and the secured term loan is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on management’s estimates of market interest rates. For mortgages where the Company has an early prepayment right, management also considers the prepayment amount to evaluate the fair value.

Convertible senior notes —The fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on management’s estimates of market interest rates, and indications of market yields, where available.

Other long-term debt— The fair value of the Company’s other long-term debt is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on management’s estimates of market interest rates.

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted accounting guidance (codified at FASB ASC 820) that defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The guidance does not impose any new requirements around which assets and liabilities are to be measured at fair value, and instead applies to asset and liability balances required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements.

The guidance applies principally to the Company’s securities investments, all of which are classified as available for sale for accounting purposes and, as such, are measured at fair value on a recurring basis on the Company’s financial statements. The guidance also applies to the Company’s derivative transactions which, as of June 30, 2013, comprised a single interest rate swap transaction that the Company entered into during the quarter ended June 30, 2013. See Note 13.    

FASB ASC 820 establishes a valuation hierarchy based on the transparency of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability. Classification is based on the lowest level of inputs that is significant to the fair value measurement. The valuation hierarchy contains three levels:

● Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the reporting date.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company has not classified any of its securities or its one outstanding derivative transaction as Level 1.

● Level 2 – Pricing inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 assets include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, such as models or other valuation methodologies.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company has classified three securities in total as Level 2: two certificated mortgage loans (one with CVS Corporation as underlying tenant and the other with Koninklijke Ahold, N.V. as underlying tenant) and its sole remaining generic commercial mortgage-backed security investment (BACM 2006-4, Class H), as Level 2.

The majority of the inputs used to estimate the fair value of the Company’s derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company does utilize credit valuation adjustments in estimating the fair value of derivatives, and such credit valuation adjustments utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of June 30, 2013, the Company assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the derivatives. Therefore, the Company has also classified its one outstanding derivative transaction as of June 30, 2013, as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

● Level 3 – Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. These valuations require a considerable amount of judgment and assumptions.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company has classified all of its securities that are backed primarily by single tenant loan collateral, other than the CVS and Ahold backed certificated loans discussed above, as Level 3. The valuation technique utilized by management is a discounted cash flow analysis. Management evaluates a variety of inputs to estimate the applicable discount rate. The primary inputs evaluated by management in estimating the discount rate are broker quotations (observable), collateral values (observable), subordination levels (observable), and liquidity of the security (unobservable). These inputs are the factors employed by management and to its knowledge other parties in determining where to price actual transactions. The Company’s securities available for sale that are classified as Level 3 are unique in that in most cases the Company owns the entire bond class. As a result, the broker quotes obtained by the Company reflect expected pricing rather than actual trades and may also reflect transactions in inactive markets. Therefore, the Company believes Level 3 is the appropriate classification in the fair value hierarchy for the Company’s available for sale securities.

10.    Debt Obligations

Credit Agreements

Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

During June 2012, the Company entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. The agreement authorizes the Company to borrow up to $100,000 from time to time from Wells Fargo Bank. This credit agreement is the Company’s primary short-term borrowing facility.

During June 2013, the Company entered into an amendment to the credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank. The amendment temporarily increases the Company’s aggregate borrowing capacity under the revolving credit agreement to up to $150,000 (from up to $100,000). The additional $50,000 in aggregate borrowing capacity will remain available to the Company for a period of six months until December 21, 2013, provided that the Company may extend the increased capacity for an additional six months until June 21, 2014, subject to the payment of an extension fee and the satisfaction of certain other routine conditions.

The credit agreement with Wells Fargo is for a three year term scheduled to mature on June 28, 2015, although the Company has an option to extend the term for one additional year subject to the payment of an extension fee and the satisfaction of certain other routine conditions. The Company is obligated to pay interest on its borrowings pursuant to the agreement at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 275 basis points. The Company may select a one month, three month or six month interest period for its LIBOR-based borrowings.

As of June 30, 2013, the collateral pool consisted of 19 real properties: the 11 Kroger grocery store properties the Company owns located in GA, TN and KY, the two multi-tenant properties the Company owns in Omaha, NE, the property the Company owns in Columbus, OH leased to Abbott Laboratories, the property the Company owns in Bloomington, IN leased to Baxter International, Inc., the property the Company owns in Louisville, KY leased to Michelin North America, Inc., the two properties the Company owns in Englewood, CO (one leased to Comcast Corporation and the other to Pulte Mortgage LLC) and the property the Company owns in Plano, TX leased to Capital One Financial Corporation. Advance rates on these properties are generally equal to 60% or 65%, depending on the property, of the lender’s as-is appraised value. The Company is authorized to add additional real estate properties to the collateral pool over time subject to the lender’s approval of the property, and the Company has done so and expects to continue to do so as it adds additional real estate properties and as mortgage debt matures on properties the Company currently owns. The Company is also authorized to remove assets provided it repays any associated borrowings at par.

The Company’s borrowings are a recourse obligation, and CapLease has guaranteed all obligations of its various subsidiaries that act as borrowers under the agreement and own the real property that comprises the initial collateral pool.

The Company made various customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants pursuant to the credit agreement, and agreed to various customary events of defaults. The Company also agreed to various financial covenants which it will be required to be in compliance with during the term of the credit agreement. The principal financial covenants are as follows:

● Maximum Leverage: The Company’s total indebtedness divided by the capitalized value of its portfolio based on an 8.0% capitalization rate may not exceed 77% initially and declining to 70% over the agreement term.

● Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage: The Company’s adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) divided by its fixed charges (basically interest expense, principal payments, net of principal received, and preferred dividends) may not be less than 100% initially increasing to 105% over the agreement term. For this purpose, EBITDA excludes non-recurring gains and losses and stock-based compensation and is adjusted to remove the impact of straight-line rents.

June 30, 2013 (unaudited)

● Minimum Debt Yield: The Company’s total net operating income (as defined in the credit agreement) divided by total liabilities may not be less than 9% initially increasing to 9.75% over the agreement term. For this purpose, total net operating income includes interest income on the Company’s loans and securities and rental revenues are adjusted to remove the impact of straight-line rents.

● Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio: The Company’s adjusted EBITDA divided by interest expense may not be less than 140% initially increasing to 150% over the agreement term.

● Minimum Tangible Net Worth: The Company’s tangible net worth (basically stockholders’ equity before accumulated depreciation and amortization) may not be less than 85% of such tangible net worth as of June 29, 2012 plus 80% of net proceeds of any future equity issuances.

● Maximum Dividends: Cash dividends to CapLease shareholders may not exceed the greater of (i) the amount required to maintain REIT status and avoid the payment of income or excise tax and (ii) 95% of adjusted funds from operations (as defined in the credit agreement). For this purpose, funds from operations excludes non-recurring gains and losses.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with the above financial covenants.

Credit Agreement with KeyBank N.A.

During October 2012, the Company entered into a senior secured credit agreement with KeyBank National Association, pursuant to which KeyBank made a $10,000 term loan to the Company. The proceeds of the term loan were utilized to repay in full and terminate a predecessor senior secured credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., entered into in July 2010.

The credit agreement with KeyBank is for a three year term scheduled to mature on October 12, 2015, although the Company has two successive options to extend the maturity date, in each case for one additional year, subject to the payment of an extension fee and the satisfaction of certain other routine conditions. The Company is obligated to pay interest on its borrowings pursuant to the agreement at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 300 basis points. The Company may select a one month, two month or three month interest period for its LIBOR-based borrowings.

The collateral pool consists principally of fully amortizing mortgage notes on various real properties owned by the Company. Debt service on those notes is funded directly by rent paid by the tenant, and is expected to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the KeyBank loan over the loan term.

The Company’s borrowings are a recourse obligation, and CapLease has guaranteed all obligations of its subsidiary that acts as borrower under the agreement and owns the notes that comprise the collateral pool.

The Company made various customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants pursuant to the credit agreement, and agreed to various customary events of defaults. The Company also agreed to various financial covenants which it will be required to be in compliance with during the term of the credit agreement. The financial covenants, as well as the representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default, closely conform to those included in the Company’s senior secured credit agreement with Wells Fargo described above.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the KeyBank credit agreement.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2013 (unaudited)

During August 2012, the Company extended the mortgage debt on the Breinigsville, PA, Lathrop, CA and Fort Wayne, IN properties for up to five years inclusive of one 18-month extension option and two one year extension options. The face amount of the note and the note coupon of 6.32% were not modified by the extension. Pursuant to the extension option provisions of the note, the Company may not extend the loan maturity date beyond August 2015 unless it has fully leased the Fort Wayne, IN property. The extension option rights if exercised also require the Company to make the following principal payments on the note:

● $7,500 during the first extension option term;

● $7,500 during the second extension option term; and

● $5,000 during the third extension option term.

Since the terms of the extended loan are deemed for financial accounting purposes to be not substantially different to the original loan, the Company accounted for the extension as a modification on its financial statements. See “Deferred Fees and Costs” under Note 3 above. Total transaction costs incurred in connection with the extension were $1,626, including $710 of fees paid to the lender to obtain the extension and expenses paid on the lender’s behalf which were added to debt issuance costs for the loan and increase the Company’s effective financing rate of the loan. The remaining $916 of advisory costs related to the extension were charged to earnings during the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

The mortgage notes in the above table are non-recourse to the Company subject to limited non-recourse exceptions and are secured by the respective properties and an assignment of the relevant leases on the properties. See Note 4 regarding the separate and distinct nature of the Company’s SPEs. The Company’s book value before accumulated depreciation and amortization on owned properties encumbered with mortgage debt aggregated $1,598,903 at June 30, 2013, and $1,627,788 at December 31, 2012.

The Company has classified its loan agreement related to the Cimarex Energy Co. property in Tulsa, OK as a component of “Mortgages on real estate investments” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company entered into the loan agreement with Bank of Oklahoma during July 2011, to initially provide construction financing of approximately one-half of the project costs related to the development of the property and subsequently, upon completion of construction, provide term financing of the Company’s investment in the property. During the construction period, interest only was payable by the Company to the lender each month at a rate equal to the prevailing one month LIBOR rate plus 300 basis points (subject to a 4.00% floor).

During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the construction loan was converted to a floating rate term loan bearing interest calculated monthly at a rate equal to the one month LIBOR rate plus 275 basis points and maturing in July 2018. During the term loan period, in addition to monthly payments of interest, the Company is also obligated to pay principal to the lender based on a 25-year amortization period. Final funding of the loan which will increase the outstanding principal balance of the loan to $31,000 is expected to occur during the third quarter of 2013. Subject to customary non-recourse exceptions, the lender’s recourse in the event of a default of the loan is limited to the property and the other assets of the Company’s joint venture entity that owns the property.

Also during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company entered into a swap agreement with Bank of Oklahoma related to the debt on the Cimarex property. The swap agreement is structured to fix the interest rate payable on the Company’s borrowings under the loan agreement with Bank of Oklahoma at 4.10% annually during the full five year term loan period. See Note 13.

Secured Term Loan

During December 2007, the Company completed a secured term loan with KBC Bank, N.V. The Company transferred a pool of assets into a wholly-owned special purpose entity, called CapLease 2007-STL LLC, and issued debt to the lender secured by the assets in the pool. The Company retained all of the equity in the special purpose entity and, therefore, is entitled to all residual cash after the payment of scheduled principal and interest on the debt. The lender’s debt is structured to be senior to the Company’s equity. For example, all principal payments on the assets transferred to the SPE will be paid to the lender until the secured term loan is repaid in full. The Company is in a first loss position in the event of a payment default or loss on any of the SPE assets.

June 30, 2013 (unaudited)

The interest coupon on the loan is fixed at 5.81% annually until the loan matures in January 2018. The Company’s effective financing rate on the loan is approximately 6.0% annually (inclusive of hedge and closing costs). The loan is non-recourse to the Company, subject to limited non-recourse exceptions.

Amounts related to the secured term loan as of June 30, 2013, were as follows:

			Collateral
	Borrowings		Carry Value
Loans held for investment	$	14,532	$	20,512
Intercompany mortgage loans on CapLease properties		12,899		24,849
Commercial mortgage-backed securities		35,614		45,880
Total	$	63,045	$	91,241

Convertible Senior Notes

During October 2007, CapLease issued $75,000 principal amount of 7.50% convertible senior notes due 2027. As of June 30, 2013, CapLease had $19,210 principal amount of convertible senior notes outstanding. The notes represent general unsecured recourse obligations of CapLease and rank equally in right of payment with all of its other existing and future obligations that are unsecured and unsubordinated.

The notes are scheduled to mature on October 1, 2027, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Holders were entitled to require CapLease to repurchase their notes, in whole or in part, on October 1, 2012 (the “initial put date”), for a cash price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, and remaining note holders may require CapLease to repurchase their notes on subsequent put dates of October 1, 2017 and October 1, 2022, at the same price.

CapLease has the right to redeem the notes in whole or in part, for cash at any time or from time to time. The redemption price will be 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

The Company recorded interest expense on the convertible senior notes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012 as follows:

	For the three months ended June 30,				For the six months ended June 30,
	2013		2012		2013		2012
Interest expense paid or accrued at stated interest rate of 7.5%	$	357	$	650	$	715	$	1,305
Convertible senior notes issuance costs expensed as a component of interest expense		-		59		1		113
Interest expense at the nonconvertible debt incremental borrowing rate of 2.5%		-		164		-		321
Total convertible senior notes interest expense	$	357	$	873	$	716	$	1,739

For financial accounting purposes and because the notes may be converted into equity in the future, the Company was required to bifurcate the proceeds from the original issuance of the notes between a liability component and an equity component and record interest expense on the liability component at the Company’s estimated nonconvertible debt borrowing rate on the date of issue. The liability component was initially recorded at a discount from the principal amount of the notes and was subsequently accreted back to the principal amount over the expected useful life of the notes as interest expense at the estimated nonconvertible debt borrowing rate was recorded. As of the initial put date of October 1, 2012, the liability component of the notes had accreted back to the full principal amount of the notes and, therefore, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company was no longer recording interest expense beyond the stated interest rate on the notes.

The carry value of the equity component of the convertible senior notes was $6,189 at each of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and is included as a component of “Additional paid in capital” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

June 30, 2013 (unaudited)

The holders may convert their notes into cash, shares of CapLease common stock, or any combination thereof, at CapLease’s option, under certain circumstances, including in connection with certain change of control events defined in the note indenture (each, a “change of control”) or a transaction that results in CapLease’s common stock or other securities into which the notes are convertible not being approved for listing on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “termination of trading”). Upon conversion, if CapLease does not elect otherwise, it will settle its conversion obligation in shares of its common stock.

The conversion rate for each $1 principal amount of notes is 88.3704 shares of CapLease’s common stock, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $11.32 per share. As of June 30, 2013, the if-converted value of the convertible senior notes is less than the principal amount of the notes. The conversion rate will be adjusted for certain events, including in the event CapLease makes any quarterly cash dividend in excess of $0.20 per share.

The convertible senior notes are convertible into CapLease common stock at the option of the holders in connection with the closing of the Merger described in Note 2 above.

Trust Preferred Securities

In December 2005, the Operating Partnership issued $30,000 in aggregate principal amount of fixed/floating rate preferred securities through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Caplease Statutory Trust I. The trust preferred securities represent an unsecured subordinated recourse debt obligation of the Company and require quarterly interest payments calculated at a fixed interest rate equal to 7.68% per annum through January 30, 2016, and subsequently at a variable interest rate equal to LIBOR plus 2.60% per annum. The securities must be redeemed on January 30, 2036, and may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at par, at the Company’s option, at any time. The Company’s effective financing rate on the trust preferred securities, inclusive of deferred issuance costs, is approximately 7.7% per annum.

Scheduled Principal Payments on Debt Obligations

Scheduled principal amortization and balloon payments for all of the Company’s outstanding debt obligations as of June 30, 2013, for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:

	Scheduled Amortization		Balloon Payments		Total
6 months ending December 31, 2013	$	15,112	$ –		$	15,112

11.    Gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt

The Company had no gain or loss on extinguishment of debt during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

The Company had net gain on extinguishment of debt of $11,012 during the six months ended June 30, 2012, primarily comprised of $9,000 of gain on the repurchase for $2,000 (including transaction costs) of an $11,000 first mortgage note on certain Company owned properties.

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company repaid at par the outstanding mortgage debt on the properties owned in Columbus, Ohio (leased to Abbott Laboratories) and Bloomington, Indiana (leased to Baxter International, Inc.), and refinanced the mortgage debt on the property owned in Kansas City, Kansas (leased to the United States Government (EPA)). These transactions resulted in net gain on debt extinguishment of $2,012, including primarily gain of $2,392 on the reversal of the remaining unamortized balance of the fair value adjustment on the debt repaid on the EPA property, and losses of $196 from the charge-off of deferred hedge and other costs associated with the debt repaid on all three properties.

13.    Risk Management Transactions

As part of its financing strategy, the Company may use interest rate swap transactions to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates associated with its present or expected future debt obligations. During the first three months of 2013 and all of 2012, the Company had no open interest rate swap positions.

During the second quarter of 2013, the Company entered into a single swap agreement with Bank of Oklahoma related to the financing of the Cimarex Energy property in Tulsa, OK. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed to make fixed rate interest payments to the Bank of Oklahoma at an annual rate of 4.10% on a notional amount of debt expected to match the principal amount outstanding under the loan agreement with Bank of Oklahoma. Also pursuant to the swap, the Bank of Oklahoma agreed to make floating rate interest payments to the Company on an equivalent notional amount at the one month LIBOR rate plus 275 basis points. The initial notional amount was $31,000.

The Company entered into the interest rate swap agreement described above for risk management purposes. The Company’s objective in entering into the interest rate swap agreement is to manage its exposure to interest rate movements on its loan agreement with Bank of Oklahoma. The Company’s strategy for the swap is to fix at an attractive rate the amount of interest expense the Company pays on the outstanding debt.

The interest rate swap is designated as a cash flow hedge under Topic 815. Accordingly, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the swap are recorded as a component of Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the ineffective portion, if any, is recognized directly in earnings. See Note 3 under the heading “Risk Management Transactions.”

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had one outstanding interest rate swap transaction. The swap is classified as part of “Other assets” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet with a fair value of $97. $92 of the unrealized gain on the swap during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was deemed effective and, therefore, deferred in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). See Note 17. The remaining $5 fair value adjustment was classified as hedge ineffectiveness and reclassified as “Gain on derivatives” on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The hedge ineffectiveness was driven by a change in the funding schedule of the Company’s borrowings from the Bank of Oklahoma.

CapLease, its directors, and certain of its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership, as well as ARCP, the ARCP Operating Partnership and Merger Sub, have been named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit in connection with the proposed Merger, styled Mizani v. CapLease, Inc., No. 651986/2013, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the Merger Agreement was the product of breaches of fiduciary duty by CapLease’s directors because the Merger does not provide for full and fair value for CapLease’s stockholders, the Merger was not the result of a competitive bidding process, the Merger Agreement contains coercive deal protection measures, and the Merger Agreement and the Merger were approved as a result of improper self-dealing by certain defendants who would receive certain alleged employment compensation benefits and continued employment pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The complaint also alleges that CapLease, ARCP, the ARCP Operating Partnership and Merger Sub aided and abetted the directors’ alleged breaches of fiduciary duty. The plaintiff seeks, among other things, to enjoin completion of the Merger. The Company believes that the allegations of the complaint are without merit and that it has substantial meritorious defenses to the claims set forth in the complaint.

CapLease, Inc., No. 651986/2013, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County.

Share Repurchase Programs

During August 2011, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase in the aggregate up to $20,000 of its outstanding common stock. In addition, during January 2013, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase the full amount of its outstanding 8.125% Series A preferred stock. The programs permit the Company to purchase shares through a variety of methods, including in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, in accordance with applicable securities laws. They do not obligate the Company to make any repurchases at any specific time or situation. The timing and extent to which the Company repurchases its shares will depend upon a variety of factors, including market conditions, the Company’s liquidity, and regulatory requirements.

The Company did not make any common stock repurchases through the above program during the six months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase up to $13,264 through the above program.

Stock Awards at June 30, 2013		4,686,905

⁽¹⁾  Shares are scheduled to vest between March 2013 and March 2015, but will generally be forfeited if the recipient either terminates his employment with the Company or ceases to be a member of CapLease’s Board of Directors at any time prior to the vesting date. Vesting of an aggregate of 262,725 shares is also subject to satisfaction of objective and subjective performance criteria, to be determined by CapLease’s Compensation Committee. Shares are also subject to accelerated vesting in the Merger as described above.

⁽²⁾  Shares are scheduled to vest between March 2014 and March 2016, but will generally be forfeited if the recipient either terminates his employment with the Company or ceases to be a member of CapLease’s Board of Directors at any time prior to the vesting date. Shares are also subject to accelerated vesting in the Merger as described above.

⁽³⁾  Performance share units are tied to the target number of shares of common stock listed and are scheduled to cliff vest after a three year performance period if performance objectives are achieved. Any actual payout of shares is dependent entirely upon the relative total shareholder return of the Company compared against a peer group over the performance period. Payout will not occur until the end of the performance period and will range from 0% to 200% of the target number of shares, with payout beginning at 50% of the target number of shares at total shareholder return of the Company at the 25^th percentile of the peer group. Units are also subject to acceleration and settlement in the Merger as described above.

A summary of the status of restricted stock awards and performance share units from January 1, 2012 through the six months ended June 30, 2013, is presented below:

June 30, 2013 (unaudited)

The Company has made certain of the restricted stock awards with vesting dependent upon satisfaction of performance criteria to be determined in the future. For such awards, applicable accounting guidance provides that despite the award having been granted, it is not valued for financial accounting purposes and expense related thereto does not commence until performance criteria have been established. “Prior period restricted stock awards” in the above table represent restricted stock awards made in a prior period but which have been valued for financial accounting purposes in the current period when the CapLease Compensation Committee determined the performance criteria.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had $5,371 of restricted stock awards and performance share units (fair value at the grant dates) expected to be charged to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations ratably over the remaining vesting period (through March 2016) assuming vesting criteria are satisfied. In addition, as of June 30, 2013, the Company has not yet commenced expense accrual related to the following number of restricted stock awards because the applicable performance criteria have not yet been determined: 48,225 shares of restricted stock awarded in 2010, and 87,575 shares of restricted stock awarded in 2012.

17.    Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined under GAAP as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances, excluding those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners, and is presented in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). For the Company’s purposes, comprehensive income (loss) represents net income (loss) before non-controlling interest in consolidated subsidiaries, as presented in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations, adjusted for unrealized gains or losses on securities available for sale and derivatives, and amortization of realized losses on derivatives reclassified into interest expense.

GAAP also divides comprehensive income (loss) into “net income (loss)” and “other comprehensive income (loss).” Other comprehensive income (loss) is defined as revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under GAAP are included in comprehensive income (loss) but excluded from net income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) is a component of Stockholders’ Equity and is shown on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity (fourth column). The following table summarizes the Company’s Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) as reported on the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity.

	Jun 30, 2013			Dec 31, 2012
	Unaudited
Net unrealized gains on securities available for sale	$	487		$	480
Net unrealized gains on derivatives		92			-
Net realized losses on derivatives		(876	)		(1,146	)
Accumulated other comprehensive loss	$	(297	)	$	(666	)

18.    Non-Controlling Interests

During June 2006, CapLease’s Operating Partnership issued 263,157 units of limited partnership to an unaffiliated third party. All of these units were issued as partial consideration for the Company’s acquisition of a real property in June 2006 from the third party. During June 2008, the units of limited partnership became redeemable by the holder, at its option, on the basis of one unit for either one share of CapLease common stock or cash equal to the fair market value of a share of common stock at the time of the redemption. The units of limited partnership do not have a liquidation preference. During September 2008, the holder redeemed 107,131 units for the same number of shares of CapLease common stock. As of June 30, 2013, the Operating Partnership had issued and outstanding 156,026 units of limited partnership. Each unit will be converted into the right to receive $8.50 in cash, without interest, in the Merger.

Cash distributions by the Operating Partnership are paid in the following priority: first, to the non-controlling interest holders until such holders receive the amount they would have received if the holders’ units of limited partnership interest were converted to an equal number of shares of CapLease common stock, and then, to CapLease. As a result, since July 2006, at the same time CapLease has paid a cash dividend to its common stockholders, the non-controlling interest holders have been paid a cash dividend of the same amount per limited partnership unit.
