2012 Significant Property Acquisitions
In July and September 2012, we acquired three residential apartment buildings with 47 units located adjacent to Santana Row for $9.0 million. These properties provide potential future redevelopment opportunities for Santana Row.

On December 21, 2012, we acquired the fee interest in East Bay Bridge, a 438,000 square foot shopping center located in Emeryville and Oakland, California. The purchase price was $116.6 million which included the assumption of a mortgage loan with a face amount of $62.9 million and a fair value of approximately $67.6 million.  Approximately $0.9 million and $47.8 million of net assets acquired were allocated to other assets for “above market leases” and other liabilities for “below market leases”, respectively. Additionally, we acquired a 37,000 square foot single-tenant office/warehouse building in Ontario, California for $2.5 million as part of the transaction. We incurred a total of $0.9 million of acquisition costs which are included in “general and administrative expenses” in 2012.
2011 Significant Acquisitions and Disposition
On January 19, 2011, we acquired the fee interest in Tower Shops located in Davie, Florida for a net purchase price of $66.1 million which included the assumption of a mortgage loan with a face amount of $41.0 million and a fair value of approximately $42.9 million. The property contains approximately 368,000 square feet of gross leasable area on 67 acres and is shadow-anchored by Home Depot and Costco. Approximately $1.2 million and $4.4 million of net assets acquired were allocated to other assets for “above market leases” and other liabilities for “below market leases”, respectively. We incurred a total of $0.4 million of acquisition costs of which $0.2 million were incurred in 2011 and are included in “general and administrative expenses” for the year ended December 31, 2011.
On July 12, 2011, we sold Feasterville Shopping Center located in Feasterville, Pennsylvania for a sales price of $20.0 million resulting in a gain of $14.8 million. The operations of this property are included in “discontinued operations” in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for all periods presented. The sale was completed as a Section 1031 tax deferred exchange transaction with the acquisition of Tower Shops.
On December 27, 2011, we acquired an 89.9% controlling interest in Montrose Crossing, a 357,000 square foot shopping center located in Rockville, Maryland. The purchase price was $141.5 million and our 89.9% ownership interest was $127.2 million which was funded with cash and our pro-rata share of $80.0 million of new mortgage debt.  We are the managing member of the entity, control all significant operating decisions, and receive approximately 89.9% of the cash flow of the entity.  Therefore, we have consolidated the property and its operations effective on the acquisition date. Approximately $2.9 million and $3.8 million of net assets acquired were allocated to other assets for "above market leases" and other liabilities for "below market leases", respectively. We incurred approximately $2.4 million of acquisition costs which are included in “general and administrative expenses” in 2011.

The purchase price was $192.7 million and our 48.2% ownership interest was funded with $8.5 million of cash and the assumption of our pro-rata share of the existing $175.0 million mortgage debt.  We are the managing member of the entity, control all significant decisions, and receive the majority of the cash flow of the entity.  Therefore, we have consolidated the property and its operations effective on the acquisition date. Approximately $7.5 million and $2.3 million of net assets acquired were allocated to other assets for "above market leases" and other liabilities for "below market leases", respectively. We incurred approximately $1.0 million of acquisition costs which are included in “general and administrative expenses” in 2011. 
On December 30, 2011, we acquired an 8.1 acre land parcel adjacent to Plaza El Segundo for a purchase price of $15.9 million.  We intend to use the land parcel for future development.
