The Company has variable interests in certain developer entities constructing the facilities but is not the primary beneficiary of the entities as the Company does not have a controlling financial interest. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company's aggregate investment in development arrangements was $74,350 and $65,122, respectively, which includes $1,472 and $1,291 of interest capitalized during 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is presented as investments in real estate under construction in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On September 1, 2012, the Company, together with an operating partnership subsidiary, acquired the remaining common equity interest in Net Lease Strategic Assets Fund L.P. (“NLS”) from Inland American (Net Lease) Sub, LLC (“Inland”) that the Company did not already own for a cash payment of $9,438 and the assumption of all outstanding liabilities. Immediately prior to the acquisition, the Company owned 15% of NLS's common equity and 100% of NLS's preferred equity and its investment balance in NLS was $40,047. At the date of acquisition, NLS owned 41 properties totaling 5.8 million square feet in 23 states, plus a 40% tenant-in-common interest in an office property.  The Company's investment in NLS had previously been accounted for under the equity method and is now consolidated. The acquisition resulted in a remeasurement of the net assets acquired to fair value. The Company engaged an independent third party to determine the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the fair value of amounts recognized for each major class of assets and liabilities:

The Company recognized a gain on the transaction in the Consolidated Statement of Operations of $167,864 primarily related to the revaluation of the Company's equity interest in NLS for the difference between its carrying value in NLS and the fair value of its ownership interest at acquisition. The noncontrolling interest share of the fair value of the net assets acquired was $373.

Intangible assets and liabilities recorded in connection with the above acquisition are set forth as follows:

The Company recognized gross revenues from continuing operations of $42,576 and $14,504 and net losses of $4,419 and $1,667 from NLS properties in 2013 and 2012, respectively.
The following unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma information is presented as if the Company acquired the remaining equity in NLS on January 1, 2011. The information excludes activity that is non-recurring and not representative of future activity, primarily the gain on acquisition of $167,864 and acquisition costs of $230 for 2012. The information presented below is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations would have been had the transaction been completed on January 1, 2011, nor does it purport to represent the Company's future operations:
