EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017, which we refer to as this Quarterly Report, of (1) Lexington Realty Trust, which we refer to as the Company or the Trust, and subsidiaries and (2) Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P., which we refer to as the Partnership or LCIF, and subsidiaries. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, (1) “we,” “our,” and “us” refer collectively to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, including LCIF and its consolidated subsidiaries, and (2) LCIF or the Partnership refers to LCIF and its consolidated subsidiaries. All of the Company's and LCIF's interests in properties are held, and all property operating activities are conducted, through special purpose entities, which we refer to as property owner subsidiaries or lender subsidiaries, which are separate and distinct legal entities, but in some instances are consolidated for financial statement purposes and/or disregarded for income tax purposes.

The Company is the sole equity owner of (1) Lex GP-1 Trust, or Lex GP, a Delaware statutory trust, and (2) Lex LP-1 Trust, or Lex LP, a Delaware statutory trust.  The Company, through Lex GP and Lex LP, holds, as of March 31, 2017, approximately 96.0% of LCIF's outstanding units of limited partner interest, which we refer to as OP units. The remaining OP units are beneficially owned by E. Robert Roskind, Chairman of the Trust, and certain non-affiliated investors. As the sole equity owner of LCIF’s general partner, the Company has the ability to control all of LCIF’s day-to-day operations subject to the terms of LCIF’s partnership agreement.

OP units not owned by LXP are accounted for as partners’ capital in LCIF’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in the Trust’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

We believe it is important to understand the differences between the Trust and LCIF in the context of how the Trust and LCIF operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. The Trust’s and LCIF’s businesses are substantially the same; except that LCIF is dependent on the Trust for management of LCIF’s operations and future investments as LCIF does not have any employees, executive officers or a board of directors.  

The Trust also invests in assets and conducts business directly and through other subsidiaries.  The Trust allocates investments to itself and its other subsidiaries or LCIF as it deems appropriate and in accordance with certain obligations under LCIF’s partnership agreement with respect to allocations of non-recourse liabilities. The Trust and LCIF are co-borrowers under the Trust’s unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans.  LCIF is a guarantor of the Trust’s publicly-traded debt securities.  

We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Trust and LCIF into this single report results in the following benefits:

• combined reports better reflect how management and the analyst community view the business as a single operating unit;

• combined reports enhance investors’ understanding of the Trust and LCIF by enabling them to view the business as a whole and in the same manner as management;

• combined reports are more efficient for the Trust and LCIF and result in savings in time, effort and expense; and

• combined reports are more efficient for investors by reducing duplicative disclosure and providing a single document for their review.

To help investors understand the significant differences between the Trust and LCIF, this Quarterly Report separately presents the following for each of the Trust and LCIF: (1) the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, (2) Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, (3) Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures, and (4) Exhibit 31 and Exhibit 32 certifications.

LEXINGTON REALTY TRUST AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2017 and 2016

(Unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share/unit and per share/unit data)

(1) The Company and Financial Statement Presentation

Lexington Realty Trust (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except when the context only applies to the parent entity, the “Company”) is a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns a diversified portfolio of equity and, from time to time, debt investments in single-tenant commercial properties.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had ownership interests in approximately 190 consolidated real estate properties, located in 39 states. The properties in which the Company has an interest are primarily net leased to tenants in various industries.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company operated in a manner intended to enable it to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Accordingly, the Company will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. The Company is permitted to participate in certain activities historically prohibited for REITs in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) under the Code. As such, the TRS are subject to federal income taxes on the income from these activities.

The Company conducts its operations either directly or indirectly through (1) property owner subsidiaries and lender subsidiaries, which are single purpose entities, (2) an operating partnership, Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. (“LCIF”), in which the Company is the sole unit holder of the general partner and the sole unit holder of the limited partner that holds a majority of the limited partner interests, (3) a wholly-owned TRS, and (4) investments in joint ventures. References to “OP units” refer to units of limited partner interests in LCIF. Property owner subsidiaries are landlords under leases for properties in which the Company has an interest and/or borrowers under loan agreements secured by properties in which the Company has an interest and lender subsidiaries are lenders under loan agreements where the Company made an investment in a loan asset, but in all cases are separate and distinct legal entities. Each property owner subsidiary is a separate legal entity that maintains separate books and records. The assets and credit of each property owner subsidiary with a property subject to a mortgage loan are not available to creditors to satisfy the debt and other obligations of any other person, including any other property owner subsidiary or any other affiliate. Consolidated entities that are not property owner subsidiaries do not directly own any of the assets of a property owner subsidiary (or the general partner, member or managing member of such property owner subsidiary), but merely hold partnership, membership or beneficial interests therein, which interests are subordinate to the claims of such property owner subsidiary's (or its general partner's, member's or managing member's) creditors.

The financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC on March 1, 2017 (“Annual Report”).

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP. The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company consolidates the wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Entities which the Company does not control and entities which are VIEs in which the Company is not a primary beneficiary are accounted for under appropriate GAAP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2017 and 2016

(Unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share/unit and per share/unit data)

The Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of certain VIEs as it has a controlling financial interest in these entities, including LCIF, in which the Company has an approximate 96% interest. See the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of LCIF included within this Quarterly Report.

The Company has a joint venture limited partnership with a developer which is a consolidated VIE. In January 2017, the joint venture completed the development of an office campus in Lake Jackson, Texas. The Company currently has a 100% interest in the joint venture; however, the developer has certain protective rights, and, upon project close-out, the developer will be credited with a notional capital account for a profit interest and certain cost savings. As of March 31, 2017, the joint venture had $147,144 in real estate, net.

The assets of each VIE are only available to satisfy such VIE's respective liabilities. As of March 31, 2017, the VIEs' mortgages and notes payable are non-recourse to the Company. Below is a summary of selected financial data of consolidated VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
Real estate, net	$	784,797	$	778,265
Total assets	$	880,176	$	899,801
Mortgages and notes payable, net	$	362,820	$	364,099
Total liabilities	$	384,839	$	395,332

Use of Estimates. Management has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions to prepare these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, including, among others, those relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors. Management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, the allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets, loans receivable and equity method investments, the valuation of derivative financial instruments, the valuation of compensation plans and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements. The Company follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, as amended (“Topic 820”), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk. The Company has formally elected to apply the portfolio exception within Topic 820 with respect to measuring counterparty risk for all of its derivative transactions subject to master netting arrangements.

Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. The Company evaluates loans receivable where the Company participates in residual profits through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether the Company has the same risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture partner. Where the Company concludes that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, the Company reflects such loan receivable as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan receivable and the Company capitalizes interest during the construction period. In arrangements where the Company engages a developer to construct a property or provides funds to a tenant to develop a property, the Company will capitalize the funds provided to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period.

Revision to Previously Issued Financial Statements. During the quarter ended December 31, 2016, the Company corrected an immaterial error in the treatment of a lease termination payment received in the quarter ended June 30, 2016 in the amount of $7,685. The lease termination payment was originally amortized over the life of the new tenant lease that necessitated the lease termination. As corrected, the payment was fully recognized in the Company's total gross revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

The Company concluded that the error noted above was not material to any historical periods presented. However, in order to correctly present the treatment of the lease termination payment, management elected to revise previously issued financial statements in the Company's next subsequent periodic filing that included such financial statements. The following table shows the affected line items within the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements:

Quarter ended March 31, 2016
	As Originally Reported		Correction			As Adjusted
Total gross revenues	$	111,616	$	(339	)	$	111,277
Net income (loss)	$	50,792	$	(339	)	$	50,453
Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders	$	48,107	$	(326	)	$	47,781
Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders - diluted per share	$	0.21	$	(0.01	)	$	0.20

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends the guidance for revenue recognition to eliminate the industry-specific revenue recognition guidance and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. Leases are specifically excluded from this ASU and will be governed by the applicable lease codifications; however, this update may have implications in certain variable payment terms included in lease agreements and in sale and leaseback transactions. The effective date of the new guidance was updated by ASU 2015-14 and is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company will adopt ASU 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018 and anticipates using the modified retrospective with cumulative-effective transition method. The Company is identifying applicable revenue streams and continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for those leases classified as operating leases at the commencement date that have lease terms of more than 12 months. The accounting applied to lessors under this new guidance is largely unchanged from prior guidance. Lessors in most cases will continue to record operating leases as operating leases and recognize lease income from those leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The ASU is expected to result in the recognition of a right-to-use asset and related liability to account for the Company's future obligations under its ground lease arrangements for which the Company is the lessee. Additionally, the new ASU will require that the Company capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years, and requires a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements; with early adoption permitted. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation-Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718), which involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this new guidance on January 1, 2017. This new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for share-based award forfeitures in compensation costs when they occur.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those years; however early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe this guidance will have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which clarifies guidance on the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. Upon adoption, restricted cash balances will be included along with cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the period and beginning of period, respectively, in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods presented. Upon adoption, separate line items showing changes in restricted cash balances will be eliminated from the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects that acquisitions of real estate or in-substance real estate will not meet the revised definition of a business and thus will be treated as asset acquisitions. Acquisition costs for those acquisitions that are not businesses will be capitalized rather than expensed.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Topic 610-20), which requires that all entities account for the derecognition of a business in accordance with ASC 810, including instances in which the business is considered in-substance real estate.  The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early application is permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

(2) Earnings Per Share

A portion of the Company's non-vested share-based payment awards are considered participating securities and as such, the Company is required to use the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Under the two-class computation method, net losses are not allocated to participating securities unless the holder of the security

has a contractual obligation to share in the losses. The non-vested share-based payment awards are not allocated losses as the awards do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses of the Company.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:

	Three months ended March 31,

(6) Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall:

	Balance			Fair Value Measurements Using
Description	March 31, 2017			(Level 1)		(Level 2)			(Level 3)
Interest rate swap assets	$	550		$	—	$	550		$	—
Interest rate swap liabilities	$	(291	)	$	—	$	(291	)	$	—

	Balance			Fair Value Measurements Using
Description	December 31, 2016			(Level 1)		(Level 2)			(Level 3)

Interest rate swap liabilities	$	(1,077	)	$	—	$	(1,077	)	$	—

*Represents a non-recurring fair value measurement.

The table below sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

	As of March 31, 2017				As of December 31, 2016
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Assets
Loans Receivable	$	—	$	—	$	94,210	$	94,911
Liabilities
Debt	$	1,853,350	$	1,809,077	$	1,860,598	$	1,814,824

The majority of the inputs used to value the Company's interest rate swaps fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, such as observable market interest rate curves; however, the credit valuation associated with the interest rate swaps utilizes Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company determined that the credit valuation adjustment relative to the overall fair value of the interest rate swaps was not significant. As a result, the interest rate swaps have been classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company estimates the fair value of its real estate assets, including non-consolidated real estate assets, by using income and market valuation techniques. The Company may estimate fair values using market information such as broker opinions of value, recent sale offers or discounted cash flow models, which primarily rely on Level 3 inputs. The cash flow models include estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. These cash flows may include contractual rental revenues, projected future rental revenues and expenses and forecasted tenant improvements and lease commissions based upon market conditions determined through discussion with local real estate professionals, experience the Company has with its other owned properties in such markets and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are estimated by management based upon rates that management believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties based upon an analysis of factors such as property and tenant quality, geographical location and local supply and demand observations. To the extent the Company under estimates forecasted cash outflows (tenant improvements, lease commissions and operating costs) or over estimates forecasted cash inflows (rental revenue rates), the estimated fair value of its real estate assets could be overstated.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2017 and 2016

(Unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share/unit and per share/unit data)

The Company estimated the fair values of its loans receivable utilizing Level 3 inputs by using a discounted cash flow analysis consisting of scheduled cash flows and discount rate estimates to approximate those that a willing buyer and seller might use and/or the estimated value of the underlying collateral.

The fair value of the Company's debt is primarily estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs by using a discounted cash flow analysis, based upon estimates of market interest rates, except for the Company's senior notes payable. The Company determines the fair value of its senior notes payable using market prices. The inputs used in determining the fair value of these notes are categorized as Level 1 due to the fact that the Company uses quoted market rates to value these instruments. However, the inputs used in determining the fair value could be categorized as Level 2 if trading volumes are low.

Fair values cannot be determined with precision, may not be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets and may not be realized upon sale. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates, liquidity risks and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts.

Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. The Company estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of the instruments.

(7) Investment in and Advances to Non-Consolidated Entities

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had ownership interests ranging from 15% to 25% in certain non-consolidated entities, which primarily own single-tenant net-leased assets. The acquisitions of these assets by the non-consolidated entities were partially funded through non-recourse mortgage debt with an aggregate balance of $46,885 at March 31, 2017 (the Company's proportionate share was $8,441) with rates ranging from 3.7% to 4.7%. In February 2017, the Company sold its 40% tenant-in-common interest in the Oklahoma City, Oklahoma office property for $6,198. In January 2016, the Company received $6,681 in connection with the sale of a non-consolidated office property in Russellville, Arkansas. The Company recognized gains of $1,452 and $5,378, respectively, relating to these sales, which are included in equity in earnings of non-consolidated entities.

In November 2014, the Company formed a joint venture to construct a private school in Houston, Texas. As of March 31, 2017, the Company had a 25% equity interest in the joint venture. The joint venture completed the project during 2016 for a total construction cost of $79,964. The Company is contractually obligated to provide construction financing to the joint venture up to $56,686, of which $47,303 had been funded as of March 31, 2017. The property is net leased for a 20-year term.

(8) Debt

Unamortized debt issuance costs	(6,950		)	(7,126		)
	$	730,310		$	738,047

(9) Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives. The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the type, amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company's derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company's known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company's investments and borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk. The Company's objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense, to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and therefore manage its cash outflows as it relates to the underlying debt instruments. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy relating to certain of its variable-rate debt instruments. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. The Company did not incur any ineffectiveness during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

The Company has designated the interest-rate swap agreements with its counterparties as cash flow hedges of the risk of variability attributable to changes in the LIBOR swap rate on $505,000 of LIBOR-indexed variable-rate unsecured term loans. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to earnings as interest becomes receivable or payable.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the term loans. During the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $234 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Interest Rate Derivative	Number of Instruments	Notional
Interest Rate Swaps	10	$505,000

The Company's agreements with swap derivative counterparties contain provisions whereby if the Company defaults on the underlying indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default of the swap derivative obligation. As of March 31, 2017, the Company had not posted any collateral related to the agreements.

(10) Concentration of Risk

The Company seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through the geographic diversification of its properties, tenant industry diversification, avoidance of dependency on a single asset and the creditworthiness of its tenants. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, no single tenant represented greater than 10% of rental revenues.

Cash and cash equivalent balances at certain institutions may exceed insurable amounts. The Company believes it mitigates this risk by investing in or through major financial institutions.

(11) Equity

Shareholders' Equity. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company issued 1,593,603 common shares under its At-The-Market offering program and generated aggregate gross proceeds of $17,362. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company issued 577,823 common shares under its direct share purchase plan, which includes its dividend reinvestment plan, raising net proceeds of $4,115.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company issued an additional 326,929 performance shares, which are subject to shareholder approval.

(2) The fair value of grants was determined at the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model.

(3) The shares vest ratably over a three-year service period.

(4) Annual grant and shares vested upon grant.

In July 2015, the Company's Board of Trustees authorized the repurchase of up to 10,000,000 common shares. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company repurchased 1,184,113 common shares, at an average price of $7.56 per common share. No repurchases occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Noncontrolling Interests. In conjunction with several of the Company's acquisitions in prior years, sellers were issued OP units as a form of consideration. All OP units, other than OP units owned by the Company, are redeemable for common shares at certain times, at the option of the holders, and are generally not otherwise mandatorily redeemable by the Company. The OP units are classified as a component of permanent equity as the Company has determined that the OP units are not redeemable securities as defined by GAAP. Each OP unit is currently redeemable at the holder's option for approximately 1.13 common shares, subject to future adjustments.

As of March 31, 2017, there were approximately 3,350,000 OP units outstanding other than OP units owned by the Company. All OP units receive distributions in accordance with the LCIF partnership agreement. To the extent that the Company's dividend per common share is less than the stated distribution per OP unit per the LCIF partnership agreement, the distributions per OP unit are reduced by the percentage reduction in the Company's dividend per common share. No OP units have a liquidation preference.

(12) Related Party Transactions

In connection with efforts to procure non-recourse mezzanine financing from an affiliate of the Company's Chairman, pursuant to the terms of the EB-5 visa program administered by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”), for a joint venture in Houston, Texas, in which the Company has an investment, the Company executed a guaranty in favor of an affiliate of its Chairman. The guaranty provides that the Company will reimburse investors providing the funds for such financing if the following occurs: (1) the joint venture receives such funds, (2) the USCIS denies the financing solely because the project is not permitted under the EB-5 visa program, and (3) the joint venture fails to return such funds.  As of March 31, 2017, the joint venture has not received any such funds and the Company has not recorded any liability related to this guaranty. The maximum amount of funds that would be subject to the guaranty obligation is $18,000.

In addition, in connection with efforts, on a non-binding basis, to procure non-recourse mezzanine financing from an affiliate of the Company's Chairman, pursuant to the terms of the EB-5 visa program administered by the USCIS, for an investment in Charlotte, North Carolina, the Company agreed to reimburse the Chairman's affiliate up to approximately $7 for its expenses.

There were no other related party transactions other than those disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and the audited consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report.

(13) Commitments and Contingencies

In addition to the commitments and contingencies disclosed elsewhere, including in Note 12 above, and previously disclosed, the Company has the following commitments and contingencies.

The Company is obligated under certain tenant leases, including its proportionate share for leases for non-consolidated entities, to fund the expansion of the underlying leased properties. The Company, under certain circumstances, may guarantee to tenants the completion of base building improvements and the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of its subsidiaries.

The Company and LCIF are parties to a funding agreement under which the Company may be required to fund distributions made on account of LCIF's OP units. Pursuant to the funding agreement, the parties agreed that, if LCIF does not have sufficient cash available to make a quarterly distribution to its limited partners in an amount in accordance with the partnership agreement, Lexington will fund the shortfall. Payments under the agreement will be made in the form of loans to LCIF and will bear interest at prevailing rates as determined by the Company in its discretion, but no less than the applicable federal rate. LCIF's right to receive these loans will expire if no OP units remain outstanding and all such loans repaid. No amounts have been advanced under this agreement.

From time to time, the Company is directly and indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

GSMSC II 2006-GG6 Bridgewater Hills Corporate Center, LLC v. Lexington Realty Trust (Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York-Index No. 653117/2015)

On September 16, 2015, GSMSC II 2006-GG6 Bridgewater Hills Corporate Center, LLC commenced an action as lender against the Company based on a limited guaranty of recourse obligations executed by a predecessor entity of the Company in connection with a mortgage loan secured by a property owner subsidiary's commercial property in Bridgewater, New Jersey.  The property owner subsidiary defaulted due to non-payment after the sole tenant vacated at the end of the lease term.  The lender seeks approximately $9,200 in order to satisfy the outstanding amount of the loan, plus interest, reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs and disbursements related thereto. The Company has not recorded any liability relating to this litigation as of March 31, 2017 as the Company believes that a loss contingency is “reasonably possible” (as defined by FASB ASC 450-20-20) but not “probable” (as defined by FASB ASC 450-20-20).

The lender claims that the Company's limited guaranty was triggered due to the merger of Newkirk Realty Trust, Inc. and Lexington Corporate Properties Trust on December 31, 2006, arguing that it constituted an event of default because it was a transfer that was not permitted by the loan agreement. The limited guaranty provides that the guarantor's liability for the guaranteed obligations shall not exceed $10,000, which the Company believes is its maximum exposure to loss. The Company intends to vigorously defend the lender’s claim.  The Company filed a motion to dismiss, which was generally denied. The parties are presently in the discovery phase, with document productions ongoing and with fact and expert depositions currently expected to be conducted and completed later this year.

The lender also brought a foreclosure action against the property owner subsidiary. A foreclosure sale was held September 13, 2016 and the lender acquired the property for a nominal amount.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company incurred $984 in legal costs relating to this litigation, which are included in general and administrative expense on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

(14) Supplemental Disclosure of Statement of Cash Flow Information

In addition to disclosures discussed elsewhere, during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company paid $14,351 and $17,002, respectively, for interest and $548 and $169, respectively, for income taxes.

(15) Subsequent Events

Subsequent to March 31, 2017 and in addition to disclosures elsewhere in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company sold two properties to unrelated third parties for an aggregate gross sales price of $17,107.

(1)    The Partnership and Financial Statement Presentation

Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except when the context only applies to the parent entity, the “Partnership”) was organized in 1986 as a limited partnership under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. The Partnership's sole general partner, Lex GP-1 Trust (the “General Partner”), is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lexington Realty Trust (“Lexington”). The Partnership serves as an operating partnership subsidiary for Lexington. As of March 31, 2017, Lexington, through Lex LP-1 Trust, a wholly-owned subsidiary, and the General Partner, owned approximately 96% of the outstanding units of the Partnership.

As of March 31, 2017, the Partnership had ownership interests in 32 consolidated real estate properties, located in 21 states. The properties in which the Partnership has an interest are leased to tenants in various industries.

The assets and credit of each property owner subsidiary of the Partnership with a property subject to a mortgage loan are not available to creditors to satisfy the debt and the other obligations of any other person, including any other property owner subsidiary of the Partnership or any other affiliate. Consolidated entities that are not property owner subsidiaries do not directly own any of the assets of a property owner subsidiary (or the general partner, member or managing member of such property owner subsidiary), but merely hold partnership, membership or beneficial interests therein, which interests are subordinate to the claims of such property owner subsidiary's (or its general partner's, member's or managing member's) creditors.

The financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 have been prepared by the Partnership in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Partnership's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC on March 1, 2017 (“Annual Report”).

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP. The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Partnership consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Partnership is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). Entities that the Partnership does not control and entities that are VIEs in which the Partnership is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for under appropriate GAAP.

Earnings Per Unit. Net income (loss) per unit is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of units outstanding during the period. There are no potential dilutive securities.

Unit Redemptions. The Partnership's limited partner units that are issued and outstanding, other than those held by Lexington, are currently redeemable at certain times, only at the option of the holders, for shares of beneficial interests classified as common stock of Lexington, par value $0.0001 per share ("common shares"), on a one to approximately 1.13 basis, subject to future adjustments. These units are not mandatorily redeemable by the Partnership. As of March 31, 2017, Lexington's common shares had a closing price of $9.98 per share. The estimated fair value of these units was $37,641, assuming all outstanding limited partner units not held by Lexington were redeemed on such date.

Allocation of Overhead Expenses. The Partnership does not pay a fee to the General Partner for the day-to-day management of the Partnership. Certain expenses incurred by the General Partner and its affiliates, including Lexington, such as corporate-level interest, amortization of deferred loan costs, payroll and general and administrative expenses are allocated to the Partnership and reimbursed to the General Partner in accordance with the Partnership's partnership agreement. The allocation is based upon gross rental revenues.

(Unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share/unit data)

Distributions; Allocations of Income and Loss. As provided in the Partnership's partnership agreement, distributions and income and loss for financial reporting purposes are allocated to the partners based on their ownership of units. Special allocation rules included in the partnership agreement affect the allocation of taxable income and loss. The Partnership paid or accrued gross distributions of $16,916 ($0.20 per weighted-average unit) and $16,493 ($0.20 per weighted-average unit) to its partners during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Certain units owned indirectly by Lexington are entitled to aggregate annual distributions of $3.25 per unit.

Use of Estimates. The Partnership has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions to prepare these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, including, among others, relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. The Partnership evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors. The Partnership adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets and equity method investments and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements. The Partnership follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“Topic 820”), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Partnership utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk.

Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. The Partnership evaluates loans receivable where the Partnership participates in residual profits through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether the Partnership has the same risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture partner. Where the Partnership concludes that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, the Partnership reflects such loan receivable as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan receivable and the Partnership records capitalized interest during the construction period. In arrangements where the Partnership engages a developer to construct a property or provide funds to a tenant to develop a property, the Partnership will capitalize the funds provided to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period.

Co-borrower Debt. The Partnership is subject to ASC 405-40, which requires recognition of such obligations as the sum of (a) the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and (b) any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors.

Revision to Previously Issued Financial Statements. During the quarter ended December 31, 2016, the Partnership corrected an immaterial error in the treatment of a lease termination payment received in the quarter of June 30, 2016 in the amount of $7,685. The lease termination payment was originally amortized over the life of the new tenant lease that necessitated the lease termination. As corrected, the payment was fully recognized in the Partnership's total gross revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

The Partnership concluded that the error noted above was not material to any historical periods presented. However, in order to correctly present the treatment of the lease termination payment, management elected to revise previously issued financial statements in the Partnership's next subsequent periodic filing that included such financial statements. The following table shows the affected line items within the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements:

For the quarter ended March 31, 2016
	As Originally Reported		Correction			As Adjusted
Total gross revenues	$	34,439	$	(339	)	$	34,100
Net income (loss)	$	18,342	$	(315	)	$	18,027

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends the guidance for revenue recognition to eliminate the industry-specific revenue recognition guidance and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. The effective date of the new guidance was updated by ASU 2015-14 and is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Partnership will adopt ASU 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018 and anticipates using the modified retrospective with cumulative-effective transition method. The Partnership is identifying applicable revenue streams and continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for those leases classified as operating leases at the commencement date and have lease terms of more than 12 months. The accounting applied to lessors under this new guidance is largely unchanged from prior guidance. Lessors in most cases will continue to record operating leases as operating leases and recognize lease income from these leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The ASU is expected to result in the recognition of a right-to-use asset and related liability to account for our future obligations under our ground lease arrangements for which the Partnership is the lessee. Additionally, the new ASU will require that the Partnership capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years, and requires a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Partnership continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those years; however early adoption is permitted. The Partnership does not believe this guidance will have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which clarifies guidance on the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. Upon adoption, restricted cash balances will be included along with cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the period and beginning of period, respectively, in the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods presented. Upon adoption, separate line items showing changes in restricted cash balances will be eliminated from the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Partnership expects that acquisitions of real estate or in-substance real estate will not meet the revised definition of a business and thus will be treated as asset acquisitions. Acquisition costs for these acquisitions that are not businesses will be capitalized rather than expensed.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Topic 610-20), which requires that all entities account for the derecognition of a business in accordance with ASC 810, including instances in which the business is considered in-substance real estate.  The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early application is permitted.  The Partnership is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

(2)     Real Estate and Real Estate Under Construction

As of March 31, 2017, the Partnership had the following development arrangement outstanding:

Location	Property Type	Square Feet (000's)	Expected Maximum Commitment		Lease Term (Years)	Estimated Completion Date	GAAP Investment Balance as of 3/31/17(1)
Charlotte, NC	Office	201	$	62,445	15	2Q 17	$	49,210

(1)    Includes $1,455 of capitalized interest.

The Partnership can give no assurances that this development arrangement will be consummated or, if consummated, will perform to the Partnership's expectations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Partnership sold its interest in a vacant office property for a gross sale price of $4,130 and recognized an impairment charge of $2,497. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Partnership sold its interest in a property for a gross sale price of $30,050 and a vacant land parcel for $400. The Partnership recognized gains on sales of properties of $7,839 during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

The Partnership assesses on a regular basis whether there are any indicators that the carrying value of its real estate assets may be impaired. Potential indicators may include an increase in vacancy at a property, tenant financial instability and the potential sale or transfer of the property in the near future. An asset is determined to be impaired if the asset's carrying value is in excess of its estimated fair value. Other than the property sold during the three months ended March 31, 2017, no properties were impaired during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

(3)    Investments in and Advances to Non-Consolidated Entities

In July 2014, the Partnership acquired a 1.0% interest in an office property in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for $263. The Partnership accounts for this investment under the cost basis of accounting.

On September 1, 2012, the Partnership acquired a 2% equity interest in Net Lease Strategic Assets Fund L.P. (“NLS”) for cash of $189 and the issuance of 457,211 limited partner units to Lexington.

The Partnership's carrying value in NLS at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $5,246 and $5,224, respectively. The Partnership recognized net income from NLS of $97 and $131 in equity in earnings from non-consolidated entities during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Partnership contributed $175 to NLS during the three months ended March 31, 2017. In addition, the Partnership received distributions of $250 and $308 from NLS during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

(4)    Fair Value Measurements

The table below sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Partnership's financial instruments as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	As of March 31, 2017				As of December 31, 2016
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Liabilities
Debt	$	267,507	$	266,383	$	315,616	$	314,509

The fair value of the Partnership's debt is primarily estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs by using an estimated discounted cash flow analysis, based upon estimates of market interest rates.

Fair values cannot be determined with precision, may not be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets and may not be realized upon sale. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates, liquidity risks and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts.

Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. The Partnership estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of the instruments.

(5)    Mortgages and Notes Payable and Co-Borrower Debt

The Partnership had the following mortgages and notes payable outstanding as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	March 31, 2017			December 31, 2016
Mortgages and notes payable	$	169,634		$	169,958
Unamortized debt issuance costs	(720		)	(746		)
	$	168,914		$	169,212

Interest rates, including imputed rates, ranged from 4.0% to 6.5% at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, and the mortgages and notes payable mature between 2019 and 2026. The weighted-average interest rate at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was approximately 4.7%.

Lexington, and the Partnership as co-borrower, have a $905,000 unsecured credit agreement with KeyBank National Association, as agent. With lender approval, Lexington can increase the size of the facility to an aggregate $1,810,000. A summary of the significant terms are as follows:

	Maturity Date	Current Interest Rate
$400,000 Revolving Credit Facility(1)	August 2019	LIBOR + 1.00%
$250,000 Term Loan(2)	August 2020	LIBOR + 1.10%
$255,000 Term Loan(3)	January 2021	LIBOR + 1.10%

(1) Maturity date can be extended to August 2020 at the Lexington's option. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.85% to 1.55%. At March 31, 2017, the revolving credit facility had no borrowings outstanding, $4,600 of letters of credit and availability of $395,400 subject to covenant compliance.

(2) The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.90% to 1.75%. Interest-rate swap agreements were previously entered into to fix the LIBOR component at a weighted-average rate of 1.09% through February 2018 on the $250,000 of outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings.

(3) The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.90% to 1.75%. Interest-rate swap agreements were previously entered into to fix the LIBOR component at a weighted-average rate of 1.42% through January 2019 on the $255,000 of outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings.

Lexington was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants contained in its corporate level debt agreements at March 31, 2017.

In accordance with the guidance of ASC 405-40, the Partnership, as it is a co-borrower with Lexington, recognizes a proportion of the outstanding amounts of the above-mentioned term loans and revolving credit facility as co-borrower debt in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balances sheets. In accordance with the Partnership’s partnership agreement, the Partnership is allocated a portion of these debts based on gross rental revenues, which represents its agreed to obligation. The Partnership's allocated co-borrower debt was $98,593 and $146,404 as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Non-cash changes in co-borrower debt are recognized in partners’ capital in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of changes in partners’ capital.

(6)    Concentration of Risk

Subject to the terms of the partnership agreement, the Partnership seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through the geographic diversification of its properties, tenant industry diversification, avoidance of dependency on a single asset and the creditworthiness of its tenants. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the following tenants represented greater than 10% of rental revenues:

	2017		2016
Preferred Freezer Services of Richland, LLC	19.0	%	10.4	%
SM Ascott LLC(1)	N/A		13.7	%
Tribeca Ascott LLC(1)	N/A		11.8	%
AL-Stone Ground Tenant LLC(1)	N/A		10.8	%

(1) The Partnership net leased these individual land parcels to the tenants under non-cancellable 99-year (original term) leases. The improvements on these parcels are owned by the tenants and consist of three high-rise hotels located in New York, NY. The Partnership sold these assets in September 2016.

Cash and cash equivalent balances at certain institutions may exceed insurable amounts. The Partnership believes it mitigates this risk by investing in or through major financial institutions.

(7)    Related Party Transactions

The Partnership had the following related party transactions in addition to related party transactions discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and the audited consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report.

The Partnership had outstanding net advances owed from (to) Lexington of $(1,910) and $5,967 as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The advances are payable on demand.

Lexington earned distributions of $16,287 and $15,876 during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The Partnership was allocated interest expense by Lexington, in accordance with the partnership agreement, relating to certain lending facilities of $1,811 and $3,137 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Lexington, on behalf of the General Partner, pays for certain general administrative and other costs on behalf of the Partnership from time to time. These costs are reimbursable by the Partnership. These costs were approximately $1,418 and $2,124 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 A Lexington affiliate provides property management services for certain Partnership properties. The Partnership recognized property operating expenses of $170 and $204 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, for aggregate fees and reimbursements charged by the affiliate.

(8)    Commitments and Contingencies

In addition to the commitments and contingencies disclosed elsewhere, the Partnership has the following commitments and contingencies.

The Partnership is obligated under certain tenant leases, including its proportionate share for leases for non-consolidated entities, to fund the expansion of the underlying leased properties. The Partnership, under certain circumstances, may guarantee to tenants the completion of base building improvements and the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of its subsidiaries.

The Partnership and Lexington are parties to a funding agreement under which Lexington may be required to fund distributions made on account of OP units. Pursuant to the funding agreement, if the Partnership does not have sufficient cash available to make a quarterly distribution to its limited partners in an amount in accordance with the partnership agreement, Lexington is required to fund the shortfall. Payments under the agreement will be made in the form of loans to the Partnership and will bear interest at prevailing rates as determined by Lexington in its discretion, but no less than the applicable federal rate. The Partnership's right to receive these loans will expire if no OP units remain outstanding and all such loans are repaid. No amounts had been advanced under this funding agreement.

In May 2014, the Partnership guaranteed $250,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.40% Senior Notes due 2024 (“2024 Senior Notes”) issued by Lexington at an issuance price of 99.883% of the principal amount and in June 2013, the Partnership guaranteed $250,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Senior Notes due 2023 (“2023 Senior Notes”) issued by Lexington at an issuance price of 99.026% of the principal amount, collectively referred to as the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes are unsecured and pay interest semi-annually in arrears. Lexington may redeem the Senior Notes at its option at any time prior to maturity in whole or in part by paying the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus a premium.

From time to time, the Partnership is directly or indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of the Partnership's business. The Partnership believes, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's business, financial condition and results of operations.

(9)    Supplemental Disclosure of Statement of Cash Flow Information

In addition to disclosures discussed elsewhere, during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Partnership paid (received) $3,869 and $7,585, respectively, for interest and $45 and $(40), respectively, for income taxes.

(10)    Subsequent Events

Subsequent to March 31, 2017 and in addition to disclosures elsewhere in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Partnership sold a property to an unrelated third party for a gross sales price of $3,461.

Lexington Realty Trust:

Overview

General. We are a Maryland real estate investment trust, or REIT, that owns a diversified portfolio of equity investments in single-tenant commercial properties.

As of March 31, 2017, we had ownership interests in approximately 190 consolidated real estate properties, located in 39 states and containing an aggregate of approximately 43.7 million square feet of space, approximately 96.2% of which was leased, excluding properties subject to secured mortgage loans currently in default. The properties in which we have an interest are primarily net leased to tenants in various industries.

Our revenues and cash flows are generated predominantly from property rent receipts. As a result, growth in revenues and cash flows is directly correlated to our ability to (1) acquire income producing real estate investments and (2) re-lease properties that are vacant, or may become vacant, at favorable rental rates.

Our current business strategy is focused on enhancing our cash flow growth and stability, growing our portfolio with attractive leased investments, reducing lease rollover risk and maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet to allow us to act on opportunities as they arise. To that end, in the first quarter of 2017, we continued to be an active seller of non-core assets such as vacant properties and properties subject to short-term leases and we have invested proceeds in predominantly build-to-suit projects, which have long-term leases, and industrial assets.

35

Leasing Activity. Re-leasing properties that are currently vacant or as leases expire at favorable effective rates is one of our primary areas of focus for asset management. We strive to manage down our shorter-term leases and extend our weighted-average lease term on a cash basis, which was approximately 8.8 years at March 31, 2017 on a cash basis. Our weighted-average lease term at March 31, 2016 was 12.7 years, or 9.2 years, adjusted to reflect the four sold New York, New York land investments, which were subject to 99-year leases, through the first option date.

During the first quarter of 2017, we entered into new leases and lease extensions encompassing approximately 200 thousand square feet. The average U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, base rent on these extended leases was $12.46 per square foot compared to the average GAAP base rent on these leases before extension of $12.17 per square foot. The weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions was $18.77 per square foot for new leases and $0.58 per square foot for extended leases on a GAAP basis.

FirstQuarter2017Transaction Summary.

The following summarizes our significant transactions during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Investments:

• Acquired an industrial property for $36.2 million in Lebanon, Indiana. The property is net leased for an approximate seven year term.

• Acquired an industrial property for $12.1 million in New Century, Kansas, which is net-leased for a 10-year term. The acquisition price is net of a $2.3 million credit for a future tenant allowance. The property is subject to a ground lease.

• Completed the construction of the last building of the Lake Jackson build-to-suit project for $70.4 million.

Capital Recycling:

• Disposed of our interests in various consolidated properties for approximately $92.8 million.

• Disposed of our 40% tenant-in-common interest in the Oklahoma City, Oklahoma office property for $6.2 million and collected $8.5 million in full satisfaction of the loan receivable owed from the other tenant-in-common.

• Sold the Kennewick, Washington loan receivable for $80.4 million.

Equity:

• Issued 1.6 million common shares under our At-The-Market offering program at an average gross price of $10.89 per share.

Acquisition and Development Activity.

Our acquisition and development activity for the past several years has consisted primarily of build-to-suit transactions whereby we (1) hire a developer, or provide funding to a tenant, to develop a property, or (2) provide capital to developers and commit to purchase the property upon completion. However, none of these transactions are done on a speculative basis without a committed tenant subject to a long-term lease.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we completed the following acquisition and build-to-suit transactions:

Location	Property Type	Square Feet (000's)	Capitalized Cost (millions)		Date Acquired	Approximate Lease Term (Years)
Lake Jackson, TX (1)	Office	275	$	70.4	January 2017	20
Lebanon, IN	Industrial	742	36.2		February 2017	7
New Century, KS	Industrial	447	12.1		February 2017	10
		1,464	$	118.7

(1) Completed the construction of the final building of a four-building project. Capitalized cost excludes estimated developer partner payout of approximately $8.0 million.

36

The following is a summary of our on-going build-to-suit transactions as of March 31, 2017:

Location	Property Type	Square Feet (000's)	Maximum Commitment/Estimated Completion Cost (millions)		Estimated Completion/Acquisition Date	GAAP Investment Balance as of 3/31/2017 (millions)
Charlotte, NC	Office	201	$	62.4	2Q 2017	$	49.2
Opelika, AL	Industrial	165	37.0		2Q 2017	19.9
Total:		366	$	99.4		$	69.1

In addition, as of March 31, 2017, we had the following forward purchase commitments:

Location	Square Feet (000's)	Property Type	Maximum Acquisition Cost (millions)		Estimated Acquisition Date	Approximate Lease Term (Yrs)
Grand Prairie, TX	215	Industrial	$	24.7	2Q 17	20
Warren, MI (1)	260	Industrial	47.0		3Q 17	15
	475		$	71.7

(1) We issued a $4.6 million letter of credit to secure our obligation to purchase the property.

We can give no assurances that any unconsummated transactions described in this Quarterly Report will be consummated or, if consummated, will perform to our expectations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On a regular basis, we evaluate our assumptions, judgments and estimates. Certain of our accounting policies are discussed under (1) Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report, (2) note 2 to our consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report and (3) note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report. We believe there have been no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies under Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows. We believe that cash flows from operations will continue to provide adequate capital to fund our operating and administrative expenses, regular debt service obligations and all dividend payments in accordance with applicable REIT requirements in both the short-term and long-term. In addition, we anticipate that cash on hand, borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, capital recycling proceeds, issuances of equity, mortgage proceeds and other debt, as well as other available alternatives, will provide the necessary capital required by our business.

At March 31, 2017, we had $62.7 million and $6.6 million of property specific mortgage balloon debt due in 2017 and 2018, respectively. Some of the 2017 non-recourse maturities were in default at March 31, 2017. We believe we have sufficient sources of liquidity to meet obligations we are required to meet through cash on hand ($177.3 million at March 31, 2017), property sale proceeds, borrowing capacity under our unsecured revolving credit facility ($395.4 million at March 31, 2017), which expires in 2019, but can be extended by us to 2020, and future cash flows from operations.

The mortgages encumbering the properties in which we have an interest are generally non-recourse to us, such that in situations where we believe it is beneficial to satisfy a mortgage obligation by transferring title of the property to the lender, including through a foreclosure, we may do so.

37

Cash flows from operations were $57.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to $59.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease was primarily related to the impact of property sales and vacancies, and payments of legal costs, offset by cash flows generated from acquired properties. The underlying drivers that impact our working capital, and therefore cash flows from operations, are the timing of collection of rents, including reimbursements from tenants, payment of interest on mortgage debt and payment of operating and general and administrative costs. We believe the net-lease structure of the leases encumbering a majority of the properties in which we have an interest mitigates the risks of the timing of cash flows from operations since the payment and timing of operating costs related to the properties are generally borne directly by the tenant. Collection and timing of tenant rents is closely monitored by management as part of our cash management program.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities totaled $67.3 million and $(33.0) million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Cash provided by investing activities related primarily to proceeds from the sale of properties, collection of loans receivable and changes in real estate deposits, net. Cash used in investing activities related primarily to acquisitions of real estate and investments in real estate under construction, capital expenditures, lease costs, changes in restricted cash and investments in and advances to non-consolidated entities.

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $34.1 million and $38.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to dividend and distribution payments, payment of developer liabilities, repayment of debt obligations and repurchase of common shares. Cash provided by financing activities related primarily to proceeds of mortgages and notes payable and the net proceeds from the issuance of common shares.

Dividends. Dividends paid to our common and preferred shareholders were $42.8 million and $41.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

UPREIT Structure. As of March 31, 2017, 3.3 million units of limited partner interests, or OP units, in our operating partnership, LCIF, were outstanding not including OP units held by us. Assuming all outstanding OP units not held by us were redeemed on such date, the estimated fair value of such OP units was $37.6 million based on our closing price of $9.98 per common share on March 31, 2017 and a redemption factor of approximately 1.13 common shares per OP unit.

Financings. The following senior notes were outstanding as of March 31, 2017:

Issue Date	Face Amount ($000)		Interest Rate		Maturity Date	Issue Price
May 2014	$	250,000	4.40	%	June 2024	99.883	%
June 2013	250,000		4.25	%	June 2023	99.026	%
	$	500,000

The senior notes are unsecured and pay interest semi-annually in arrears. We may redeem the senior notes at our option at any time prior to maturity in whole or in part by paying the principal amount of the senior notes being redeemed plus a premium.

We have a $905.0 million unsecured credit agreement with KeyBank National Association, as agent. With lender approval, we can increase the size of the facility to an aggregate $1.8 billion. A summary of the significant terms are as follows:

	Maturity Date	Current Interest Rate
$400.0 Million Revolving Credit Facility(1)	August 2019	LIBOR + 1.00%
$250.0 Million Term Loan(2)	August 2020	LIBOR + 1.10%
$255.0 Million Term Loan(3)	January 2021	LIBOR + 1.10%

(1) Maturity date can be extended to August 2020 at our option. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.85% to 1.55%. At March 31, 2017, the unsecured revolving credit facility had no borrowings outstanding, $4.6 million of letters of credit, and availability of $395.4 million subject to covenant compliance.

(2) The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.90% to 1.75%. We previously entered into aggregate interest-rate swap agreements to fix the LIBOR component at a weighted-average rate of 1.09% through February 2018 on the $250.0 million of outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings.

(3) The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.90% to 1.75%. We previously entered into aggregate interest-rate swap agreements to fix the LIBOR component at a weighted-average rate of 1.42% through January 2019 on the $255.0 million of outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings.

As of March 31, 2017, we were in compliance with all applicable financial covenants contained in our corporate level debt agreements.

Results of Operations

Three months endedMarch 31, 2017compared with three months endedMarch 31, 2016. The decrease in net income attributable to common shareholders of $7.4 million was primarily due to the items discussed below.

The decrease in total gross revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2017 of $15.2 million was primarily attributable to a decrease in rental revenue. Rental revenue decreased $14.6 million primarily due to decreases in rental revenue of $18.9 million due to property sales and $2.8 million due to changes in occupancy at certain properties, partially offset by 2017 and 2016 property acquisitions rental revenue of $7.4 million.

The increase in general and administrative expenses of $1.7 million related primarily to an increase in professional fees, primarily legal fees.

The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $3.2 million related primarily to the satisfaction of mortgage debt in connection with property sales.

The impairment charges and loan loss of $8.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 related primarily to the $2.5 million impairment charge recognized on the sale of a vacant office property and a $5.3 million loan loss recognized on the sale of our Kennewick, Washington loan receivable.

The increase in gains on sales of properties of $17.2 million related to the timing of sales of properties.

The decrease in equity in earnings of non-consolidated entities of $3.8 million was primarily due to the timing of gains recognized on the sale of nonconsolidated investments.

The decrease in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $0.8 million related primarily to a decrease in the limited partners' share of rental revenues and gains on sales of properties, which were recognized by LCIF in 2016.

Any increase in net income in future periods will be closely tied to the level of acquisitions and dispositions and leasing activity. Without acquisitions and favorable leasing activity, the sources of growth in net income are limited to index-adjusted rents (such as the consumer price index), reduced interest expense on amortizing mortgages and debt refinancings and by controlling other variable overhead costs and, periodically, gains on sales of properties. However, there are many factors beyond management's control that could offset these items including, without limitation, increased interest rates, decreased occupancy rates, tenant monetary defaults, delayed acquisitions and the other risks described in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.

Same-Store Results

Same-store net operating income, or NOI, which is a non-GAAP measure, represents the NOI for consolidated properties that were owned and included in our portfolio for two comparable reporting periods, excluding properties encumbered by mortgage loans in default and the revenue associated with the expansion of properties, as applicable. We define NOI as operating revenues (rental income (less GAAP rent adjustments and lease termination income), tenant reimbursements and other property income) less property operating expenses. As same-store NOI excludes the change in NOI from acquired and disposed of properties and certain other properties, it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates and operating costs on properties. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating same-store NOI, and accordingly same-store NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. Management believes that same-store NOI is a useful supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance. However, same-store NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of the Company's financial performance since it does not reflect the operations of the Company's entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, acquisition-related expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization costs, other nonproperty income and losses, the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company's properties, or trends in development and construction activities which are significant economic costs and activities that could materially impact the Company's results from operations. Lexington believes that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to same-store NOI.

The following presents our consolidated same-store NOI, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 ($000's):

	2017			2016
Total cash base rent	$	76,263		$	77,286
Tenant reimbursements	6,254			6,647
Property operating expenses	(10,527		)	(9,864		)
Same-store NOI	$	71,990		$	74,069

39

Our reported same-store NOI decreased from 2016 to 2017 by 2.8%. The decrease in same-store NOI between periods primarily related to an increase in vacancy in certain of our office properties. Our historical same-store square footage leased was 95.7% at March 31, 2017 and 98.1% at March 31, 2016.

Funds From Operations

We believe that Funds from Operations, or FFO, which is a non-GAAP measure, is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. We believe FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. As a result, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing perspective that may not necessarily be apparent from net income.

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, defines FFO as “net income (or loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for non-consolidated partnerships and joint ventures.” NAREIT clarified its computation of FFO to exclude impairment charges on depreciable real estate owned directly or indirectly. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

40

We present FFO available to common shareholders and unitholders - basic and also present FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted on a company-wide basis as if all securities that are convertible, at the holder's option, into our common shares, are converted at the beginning of the period. We also present Adjusted Company FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted which adjusts FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted for certain items which we believe are not indicative of the operating results of our real estate portfolio. We believe this is an appropriate presentation as it is frequently requested by security analysts, investors and other interested parties. Since others do not calculate these measures in a similar fashion, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by others. These measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

The following presents a reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders to FFO available to common shareholders and unitholders and Adjusted Company FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 (unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2017, we had investments in various real estate entities with varying structures. The real estate investments owned by these entities are generally financed with non-recourse debt. Non-recourse debt is generally defined as debt whereby the lenders' sole recourse with respect to borrower defaults is limited to the value of the assets collateralized by the debt. The lender generally does not have recourse against any other assets owned by the borrower or any of the members or partners of the borrower, except for certain specified exceptions listed in the particular loan documents. These exceptions generally relate to "bad boy" acts, including fraud and breaches of material representations. We have guaranteed such obligations for certain of our non-consolidated entities.

Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P.:

Critical Accounting Policies

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In preparing the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, the Partnership makes assumptions, judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The Partnership bases its assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that the Partnership believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On a regular basis, the Partnership evaluates its assumptions, judgments and estimates. Certain of the Partnership's accounting policies are discussed under (1) Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Annual Report, (2) note 2 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Annual Report and (3) note 1 to the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report. The Partnership believes there have been no material changes to the items that the Partnership disclosed as the Partnership's critical accounting policies under Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Annual Report. 

Liquidity

Cash Flows. The Partnership believes that its cash flows from operations will continue to provide adequate capital to fund its operating and administrative expenses, regular debt service obligations, working capital needs and all distribution payments in accordance with partnership agreement requirements in both the short-term and long-term. However, without a capital event, which would most likely involve the Company, the Partnership does not have the ability to fund balloon payments on maturing mortgages or acquire new investments. 

Cash flows from operations totaled $9.9 million and $9.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in the allocation of interest and general and administrative expenses from Lexington. The underlying drivers that impact working capital and therefore cash flows from operations are the timing of (1) the collection of rents and tenant reimbursements, (2) the payment of interest on mortgage debt and (3) operating and general and administrative costs. The Partnership believes the net-lease structure of the leases encumbering a majority of the properties in which the Partnership has an interest mitigates the risks of the timing of cash flows from operations since the payment and timing of operating costs related to the properties are generally borne directly by the tenant. Collection and timing of tenant rents is closely monitored by management as part of the Partnership cash management program.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $5.5 million and $6.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Cash provided by investing activities related primarily to proceeds from the sale of properties and distributions from non-consolidated entities in excess of accumulated earnings. Cash used in investing activities related primarily to capital expenditures on real estate properties, investments in real estate under construction, investments in non-consolidated entities and an increase in restricted cash.

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $9.4 million and $9.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to distribution payments, an increase in deferred financing costs and debt payments. Cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to related party advances (payments), net.

Property Specific Debt. As of March 31, 2017, the Partnership had no property specific debt maturing in 2017 and 2018. However, if a mortgage loan is unable to be refinanced upon maturity, the Partnership will be dependent on the Company's liquidity resources to satisfy such mortgage loan to avoid transferring the underlying property to the lender or selling the underlying property to a third party.

Capital Recycling.During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Partnership disposed of its interests in certain properties for an aggregate gross sales price of $4.1 million and $30.5 million, respectively.

Results of Operations

Three months endedMarch 31, 2017compared with the three months endedMarch 31, 2016. The decrease in total gross revenues of $14.8 million was primarily attributable to a decrease in rental revenue. The decrease in rental revenue of $14.3 million was primarily due to a reduction in rental revenue of $15.2 million due to sales of properties and a reduction in lease termination income, partially offset by rental revenue from newly acquired properties of $0.9 million.

Property operating expense decreased $0.6 million primarily due to the sale of properties, including multi-tenanted properties, with operating expense responsibilities.

The decrease in general and administrative expense of $0.6 million primarily related to a decrease in the allocation of expenses from Lexington.

The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $4.9 million was primarily due to the sale of encumbered properties in 2016, particularly the New York, New York land investments, and a decrease in the allocation of interest and amortization expense from Lexington.

Impairment charges of $2.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017, primarily related to an impairment charge recognized on the sale of a vacant office property in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

Gains on sales of properties during the three months ended March 31, 2016 of $7.8 million primarily related to the sale of our property in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Partnership is a co-borrower or guarantor of corporate borrowing facilities and debt securities of the Company (see notes 5 and 8 to the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to debt securities). In addition, the Partnership, from time to time, guarantees certain tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of its subsidiaries when required by the related tenant or lender. However, the Partnership does not believe these guarantees are material to it as the obligations under and risks associated with such guarantees are priced into the rent under the applicable lease or the value of the applicable property.

44

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE

DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our exposure to market risk relates primarily to our variable-rate indebtedness not subject to interest rate swaps and our fixed-rate debt. We had no consolidated variable-rate indebtedness outstanding at March 31, 2017. Our consolidated aggregate principal variable-rate indebtedness was $147.0 million at March 31, 2016, which represented 6.6% of our aggregate principal consolidated indebtedness. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, our variable-rate indebtedness had a weighted-average interest rate of 1.4%. Had the weighted-average interest rate been 100 basis points higher, our interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2016 would have increased by $471 thousand. As of March 31, 2017 and 2016, our aggregate principal consolidated fixed-rate debt was $1.9 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively, which represented 100.0% and 93.4%, respectively, of our aggregate principal indebtedness.

For certain of our financial instruments, fair values are not readily available since there are no active trading markets as characterized by current exchanges between willing parties. Accordingly, we derive or estimate fair values using various valuation techniques, such as computing the present value of estimated future cash flows using discount rates commensurate with the risks involved. However, the determination of estimated cash flows may be subjective and imprecise. Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values. The following fair value was determined using the interest rates that we believe our outstanding fixed-rate indebtedness would warrant as of March 31, 2017. We believe the fair value is indicative of the interest rate environment as of March 31, 2017, but this amount does not take into consideration the effects of subsequent interest rate fluctuations. Accordingly, we estimate that the fair value of our fixed-rate indebtedness was $1.8 billion as of March 31, 2017.

Our interest rate risk objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate fluctuations on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates through the use of fixed-rate debt instruments to the extent that reasonably favorable rates are obtainable with such arrangements. We may enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps or caps to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument or to effectively lock the interest rate on a portion of our variable-rate debt. As of March 31, 2017, we had 10 interest rate swap agreements (see note 9 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report).

The Partnership has similar exposure to market risk and interest rate risk relating to its variable-rate indebtedness because the Partnership is a co-borrower of the Company's variable-rate debt.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Lexington Realty Trust:

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As discussed in our Annual Report, Management has identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, and management, including each of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2017 due to this material weakness. Management believes the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position as of the specified dates and our results of operations and cash flows for the specified periods.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this Quarterly Report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this Quarterly Report, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2016 or March 31, 2017 due to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described in the Annual Report. Management, with the concurrence of the Audit Committee of our Board of Trustees is proceeding with a remediation plan, which is also described in the Annual Report. The implementation of this remediation plan in future periods is expected to be reflected as changes in our internal control over reporting in future periods.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls.Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time the Company and Partnership are directly and indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of the Company's and Partnership's business, including claims by lenders under non-recourse carve-out guarantees. We believe, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's or the Partnership's business, financial condition and results of operations.

GSMSC II 2006-GG6 Bridgewater Hills Corporate Center, LLC v. Lexington Realty Trust (Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York-Index No. 653117/2015)

46

On September 16, 2015, GSMSC II 2006-GG6 Bridgewater Hills Corporate Center, LLC commenced an action as lender against the Company based on a limited guaranty of recourse obligations executed by a predecessor entity of the Company in connection with a mortgage loan secured by a property owner subsidiary's commercial property in Bridgewater, New Jersey.  The property owner subsidiary defaulted due to non-payment after the sole tenant vacated at the end of the lease term.  The lender seeks approximately $9.2 million in order to satisfy the outstanding amount of the loan, plus interest, reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs and disbursements related thereto. The Company has not recorded any liability relating to this litigation as the Company believes that a loss contingency is “reasonably possible” (as defined by FASB ASC 450-20-20) but not “probable” (as defined by FASB ASC 450-20-20).

The lender claims that the Company's limited guaranty was triggered due to the merger of Newkirk Realty Trust, Inc. and Lexington Corporate Properties Trust on December 31, 2006, arguing that it constituted an event of default because it was a transfer that was not permitted by the loan agreement. The limited guaranty provides that the guarantor's liability for the guaranteed obligations shall not exceed $10.0 million, which the Company believes is its maximum exposure to loss. We intend to vigorously defend the lender’s claim.  The Company filed a motion to dismiss, which was generally denied. The parties are presently in the discovery phase, with document productions ongoing and with fact and expert depositions currently expected to be conducted and completed later this year.

The lender also brought a foreclosure action against the property owner subsidiary. A foreclosure sale was held September 13, 2016 and the lender acquired the property for a nominal amount.

The Company and Financial Statement Presentation

The Company and Financial Statement Presentation

Lexington Realty Trust (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except when the context only applies to the parent entity, the “Company”) is a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns a diversified portfolio of equity and, from time to time, debt investments in single-tenant commercial properties.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had ownership interests in approximately 190 consolidated real estate properties, located in 39 states. The properties in which the Company has an interest are primarily net leased to tenants in various industries.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company operated in a manner intended to enable it to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Accordingly, the Company will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. The Company is permitted to participate in certain activities historically prohibited for REITs in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) under the Code. As such, the TRS are subject to federal income taxes on the income from these activities.

The Company conducts its operations either directly or indirectly through (1) property owner subsidiaries and lender subsidiaries, which are single purpose entities, (2) an operating partnership, Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. (“LCIF”), in which the Company is the sole unit holder of the general partner and the sole unit holder of the limited partner that holds a majority of the limited partner interests, (3) a wholly-owned TRS, and (4) investments in joint ventures. References to “OP units” refer to units of limited partner interests in LCIF. Property owner subsidiaries are landlords under leases for properties in which the Company has an interest and/or borrowers under loan agreements secured by properties in which the Company has an interest and lender subsidiaries are lenders under loan agreements where the Company made an investment in a loan asset, but in all cases are separate and distinct legal entities. Each property owner subsidiary is a separate legal entity that maintains separate books and records. The assets and credit of each property owner subsidiary with a property subject to a mortgage loan are not available to creditors to satisfy the debt and other obligations of any other person, including any other property owner subsidiary or any other affiliate. Consolidated entities that are not property owner subsidiaries do not directly own any of the assets of a property owner subsidiary (or the general partner, member or managing member of such property owner subsidiary), but merely hold partnership, membership or beneficial interests therein, which interests are subordinate to the claims of such property owner subsidiary's (or its general partner's, member's or managing member's) creditors.

The financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC on March 1, 2017 (“Annual Report”).

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP. The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company consolidates the wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Entities which the Company does not control and entities which are VIEs in which the Company is not a primary beneficiary are accounted for under appropriate GAAP.

The Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of certain VIEs as it has a controlling financial interest in these entities, including LCIF, in which the Company has an approximate 96% interest. See the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of LCIF included within this Quarterly Report.

The Company has a joint venture limited partnership with a developer which is a consolidated VIE. In January 2017, the joint venture completed the development of an office campus in Lake Jackson, Texas. The Company currently has a 100% interest in the joint venture; however, the developer has certain protective rights, and, upon project close-out, the developer will be credited with a notional capital account for a profit interest and certain cost savings. As of March 31, 2017, the joint venture had $147,144 in real estate, net.

The assets of each VIE are only available to satisfy such VIE's respective liabilities. As of March 31, 2017, the VIEs' mortgages and notes payable are non-recourse to the Company. Below is a summary of selected financial data of consolidated VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
Real estate, net	$	784,797	$	778,265
Total assets	$	880,176	$	899,801
Mortgages and notes payable, net	$	362,820	$	364,099
Total liabilities	$	384,839	$	395,332

Use of Estimates. Management has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions to prepare these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, including, among others, those relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors. Management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, the allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets, loans receivable and equity method investments, the valuation of derivative financial instruments, the valuation of compensation plans and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements. The Company follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, as amended (“Topic 820”), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk. The Company has formally elected to apply the portfolio exception within Topic 820 with respect to measuring counterparty risk for all of its derivative transactions subject to master netting arrangements.

Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. The Company evaluates loans receivable where the Company participates in residual profits through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether the Company has the same risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture partner. Where the Company concludes that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, the Company reflects such loan receivable as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan receivable and the Company capitalizes interest during the construction period. In arrangements where the Company engages a developer to construct a property or provides funds to a tenant to develop a property, the Company will capitalize the funds provided to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period.

Revision to Previously Issued Financial Statements. During the quarter ended December 31, 2016, the Company corrected an immaterial error in the treatment of a lease termination payment received in the quarter ended June 30, 2016 in the amount of $7,685. The lease termination payment was originally amortized over the life of the new tenant lease that necessitated the lease termination. As corrected, the payment was fully recognized in the Company's total gross revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

The Company concluded that the error noted above was not material to any historical periods presented. However, in order to correctly present the treatment of the lease termination payment, management elected to revise previously issued financial statements in the Company's next subsequent periodic filing that included such financial statements. The following table shows the affected line items within the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements:

Quarter ended March 31, 2016
	As Originally Reported		Correction			As Adjusted
Total gross revenues	$	111,616	$	(339	)	$	111,277
Net income (loss)	$	50,792	$	(339	)	$	50,453
Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders	$	48,107	$	(326	)	$	47,781
Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders - diluted per share	$	0.21	$	(0.01	)	$	0.20

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends the guidance for revenue recognition to eliminate the industry-specific revenue recognition guidance and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. Leases are specifically excluded from this ASU and will be governed by the applicable lease codifications; however, this update may have implications in certain variable payment terms included in lease agreements and in sale and leaseback transactions. The effective date of the new guidance was updated by ASU 2015-14 and is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company will adopt ASU 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018 and anticipates using the modified retrospective with cumulative-effective transition method. The Company is identifying applicable revenue streams and continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for those leases classified as operating leases at the commencement date that have lease terms of more than 12 months. The accounting applied to lessors under this new guidance is largely unchanged from prior guidance. Lessors in most cases will continue to record operating leases as operating leases and recognize lease income from those leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The ASU is expected to result in the recognition of a right-to-use asset and related liability to account for the Company's future obligations under its ground lease arrangements for which the Company is the lessee. Additionally, the new ASU will require that the Company capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years, and requires a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements; with early adoption permitted. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation-Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718), which involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this new guidance on January 1, 2017. This new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for share-based award forfeitures in compensation costs when they occur.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those years; however early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe this guidance will have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which clarifies guidance on the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. Upon adoption, restricted cash balances will be included along with cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the period and beginning of period, respectively, in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods presented. Upon adoption, separate line items showing changes in restricted cash balances will be eliminated from the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects that acquisitions of real estate or in-substance real estate will not meet the revised definition of a business and thus will be treated as asset acquisitions. Acquisition costs for those acquisitions that are not businesses will be capitalized rather than expensed.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Topic 610-20), which requires that all entities account for the derecognition of a business in accordance with ASC 810, including instances in which the business is considered in-substance real estate.  The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early application is permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company and Financial Statement Presentation

The Partnership and Financial Statement Presentation

Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except when the context only applies to the parent entity, the “Partnership”) was organized in 1986 as a limited partnership under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. The Partnership's sole general partner, Lex GP-1 Trust (the “General Partner”), is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lexington Realty Trust (“Lexington”). The Partnership serves as an operating partnership subsidiary for Lexington. As of March 31, 2017, Lexington, through Lex LP-1 Trust, a wholly-owned subsidiary, and the General Partner, owned approximately 96% of the outstanding units of the Partnership.

As of March 31, 2017, the Partnership had ownership interests in 32 consolidated real estate properties, located in 21 states. The properties in which the Partnership has an interest are leased to tenants in various industries.

The assets and credit of each property owner subsidiary of the Partnership with a property subject to a mortgage loan are not available to creditors to satisfy the debt and the other obligations of any other person, including any other property owner subsidiary of the Partnership or any other affiliate. Consolidated entities that are not property owner subsidiaries do not directly own any of the assets of a property owner subsidiary (or the general partner, member or managing member of such property owner subsidiary), but merely hold partnership, membership or beneficial interests therein, which interests are subordinate to the claims of such property owner subsidiary's (or its general partner's, member's or managing member's) creditors.

The financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 have been prepared by the Partnership in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Partnership's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC on March 1, 2017 (“Annual Report”).

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP. The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Partnership consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Partnership is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). Entities that the Partnership does not control and entities that are VIEs in which the Partnership is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for under appropriate GAAP.

Earnings Per Unit. Net income (loss) per unit is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of units outstanding during the period. There are no potential dilutive securities.

Unit Redemptions. The Partnership's limited partner units that are issued and outstanding, other than those held by Lexington, are currently redeemable at certain times, only at the option of the holders, for shares of beneficial interests classified as common stock of Lexington, par value $0.0001 per share ("common shares"), on a one to approximately 1.13 basis, subject to future adjustments. These units are not mandatorily redeemable by the Partnership. As of March 31, 2017, Lexington's common shares had a closing price of $9.98 per share. The estimated fair value of these units was $37,641, assuming all outstanding limited partner units not held by Lexington were redeemed on such date.

Allocation of Overhead Expenses. The Partnership does not pay a fee to the General Partner for the day-to-day management of the Partnership. Certain expenses incurred by the General Partner and its affiliates, including Lexington, such as corporate-level interest, amortization of deferred loan costs, payroll and general and administrative expenses are allocated to the Partnership and reimbursed to the General Partner in accordance with the Partnership's partnership agreement. The allocation is based upon gross rental revenues.

Distributions; Allocations of Income and Loss. As provided in the Partnership's partnership agreement, distributions and income and loss for financial reporting purposes are allocated to the partners based on their ownership of units. Special allocation rules included in the partnership agreement affect the allocation of taxable income and loss. The Partnership paid or accrued gross distributions of $16,916 ($0.20 per weighted-average unit) and $16,493 ($0.20 per weighted-average unit) to its partners during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Certain units owned indirectly by Lexington are entitled to aggregate annual distributions of $3.25 per unit.

Use of Estimates. The Partnership has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions to prepare these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, including, among others, relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. The Partnership evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors. The Partnership adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets and equity method investments and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements. The Partnership follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“Topic 820”), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Partnership utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk.

Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. The Partnership evaluates loans receivable where the Partnership participates in residual profits through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether the Partnership has the same risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture partner. Where the Partnership concludes that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, the Partnership reflects such loan receivable as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan receivable and the Partnership records capitalized interest during the construction period. In arrangements where the Partnership engages a developer to construct a property or provide funds to a tenant to develop a property, the Partnership will capitalize the funds provided to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period.

Co-borrower Debt. The Partnership is subject to ASC 405-40, which requires recognition of such obligations as the sum of (a) the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and (b) any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors.

Revision to Previously Issued Financial Statements. During the quarter ended December 31, 2016, the Partnership corrected an immaterial error in the treatment of a lease termination payment received in the quarter of June 30, 2016 in the amount of $7,685. The lease termination payment was originally amortized over the life of the new tenant lease that necessitated the lease termination. As corrected, the payment was fully recognized in the Partnership's total gross revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

The Partnership concluded that the error noted above was not material to any historical periods presented. However, in order to correctly present the treatment of the lease termination payment, management elected to revise previously issued financial statements in the Partnership's next subsequent periodic filing that included such financial statements. The following table shows the affected line items within the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements:

For the quarter ended March 31, 2016
	As Originally Reported		Correction			As Adjusted
Total gross revenues	$	34,439	$	(339	)	$	34,100
Net income (loss)	$	18,342	$	(315	)	$	18,027

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends the guidance for revenue recognition to eliminate the industry-specific revenue recognition guidance and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. The effective date of the new guidance was updated by ASU 2015-14 and is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Partnership will adopt ASU 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018 and anticipates using the modified retrospective with cumulative-effective transition method. The Partnership is identifying applicable revenue streams and continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for those leases classified as operating leases at the commencement date and have lease terms of more than 12 months. The accounting applied to lessors under this new guidance is largely unchanged from prior guidance. Lessors in most cases will continue to record operating leases as operating leases and recognize lease income from these leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The ASU is expected to result in the recognition of a right-to-use asset and related liability to account for our future obligations under our ground lease arrangements for which the Partnership is the lessee. Additionally, the new ASU will require that the Partnership capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years, and requires a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Partnership continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those years; however early adoption is permitted. The Partnership does not believe this guidance will have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which clarifies guidance on the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. Upon adoption, restricted cash balances will be included along with cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the period and beginning of period, respectively, in the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods presented. Upon adoption, separate line items showing changes in restricted cash balances will be eliminated from the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Partnership expects that acquisitions of real estate or in-substance real estate will not meet the revised definition of a business and thus will be treated as asset acquisitions. Acquisition costs for these acquisitions that are not businesses will be capitalized rather than expensed.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Topic 610-20), which requires that all entities account for the derecognition of a business in accordance with ASC 810, including instances in which the business is considered in-substance real estate.  The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early application is permitted.  The Partnership is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

A portion of the Company's non-vested share-based payment awards are considered participating securities and as such, the Company is required to use the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Under the two-class computation method, net losses are not allocated to participating securities unless the holder of the security has a contractual obligation to share in the losses. The non-vested share-based payment awards are not allocated losses as the awards do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses of the Company.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2017			2016

Net income attributable to common shareholders	$	40,397		$	47,781
Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding - basic	237,179,526			232,642,803
Net income attributable to common shareholders - per common share basic	$	0.17		0.21
DILUTED
Net income attributable to common shareholders - basic	$	40,397		$	47,781
Impact of assumed conversions	(19		)	1,046
Net income attributable to common shareholders	$	40,378		$	48,827
Weighted-average common shares outstanding - basic	237,179,526			232,642,803
Effect of dilutive securities:
Share options	136,881			132,191
6.00% Convertible Guaranteed Notes	—			1,941,237
OP Units	3,771,642			3,820,192
Nonvested common shares	—			348,748
Weighted-average common shares outstanding - diluted	241,088,049			238,885,171
Net income attributable to common shareholders - per common share diluted	$	0.17		$	0.20

For per common share amounts, all incremental shares are considered anti-dilutive for periods that have a loss from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders. In addition, other common share equivalents may be anti-dilutive in certain periods.

The table below sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

The majority of the inputs used to value the Company's interest rate swaps fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, such as observable market interest rate curves; however, the credit valuation associated with the interest rate swaps utilizes Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company determined that the credit valuation adjustment relative to the overall fair value of the interest rate swaps was not significant. As a result, the interest rate swaps have been classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company estimates the fair value of its real estate assets, including non-consolidated real estate assets, by using income and market valuation techniques. The Company may estimate fair values using market information such as broker opinions of value, recent sale offers or discounted cash flow models, which primarily rely on Level 3 inputs. The cash flow models include estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. These cash flows may include contractual rental revenues, projected future rental revenues and expenses and forecasted tenant improvements and lease commissions based upon market conditions determined through discussion with local real estate professionals, experience the Company has with its other owned properties in such markets and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are estimated by management based upon rates that management believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties based upon an analysis of factors such as property and tenant quality, geographical location and local supply and demand observations. To the extent the Company under estimates forecasted cash outflows (tenant improvements, lease commissions and operating costs) or over estimates forecasted cash inflows (rental revenue rates), the estimated fair value of its real estate assets could be overstated.

The Company estimated the fair values of its loans receivable utilizing Level 3 inputs by using a discounted cash flow analysis consisting of scheduled cash flows and discount rate estimates to approximate those that a willing buyer and seller might use and/or the estimated value of the underlying collateral.

The fair value of the Company's debt is primarily estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs by using a discounted cash flow analysis, based upon estimates of market interest rates, except for the Company's senior notes payable. The Company determines the fair value of its senior notes payable using market prices. The inputs used in determining the fair value of these notes are categorized as Level 1 due to the fact that the Company uses quoted market rates to value these instruments. However, the inputs used in determining the fair value could be categorized as Level 2 if trading volumes are low.

Fair values cannot be determined with precision, may not be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets and may not be realized upon sale. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates, liquidity risks and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts.

Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. The Company estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of the instruments.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives. The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the type, amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company's derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company's known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company's investments and borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk. The Company's objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense, to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and therefore manage its cash outflows as it relates to the underlying debt instruments. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy relating to certain of its variable-rate debt instruments. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. The Company did not incur any ineffectiveness during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

The Company has designated the interest-rate swap agreements with its counterparties as cash flow hedges of the risk of variability attributable to changes in the LIBOR swap rate on $505,000 of LIBOR-indexed variable-rate unsecured term loans. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to earnings as interest becomes receivable or payable.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the term loans. During the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $234 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Interest Rate Derivative	Number of Instruments	Notional
Interest Rate Swaps	10	$505,000

The table below presents the fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Interest Rate Swaps	$	688	$	(5,691	)	Interest expense	$	604	$	1,066

The Company's agreements with swap derivative counterparties contain provisions whereby if the Company defaults on the underlying indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default of the swap derivative obligation. As of March 31, 2017, the Company had not posted any collateral related to the agreements.

Noncontrolling Interests. In conjunction with several of the Company's acquisitions in prior years, sellers were issued OP units as a form of consideration. All OP units, other than OP units owned by the Company, are redeemable for common shares at certain times, at the option of the holders, and are generally not otherwise mandatorily redeemable by the Company. The OP units are classified as a component of permanent equity as the Company has determined that the OP units are not redeemable securities as defined by GAAP. Each OP unit is currently redeemable at the holder's option for approximately 1.13 common shares, subject to future adjustments.

As of March 31, 2017, there were approximately 3,350,000 OP units outstanding other than OP units owned by the Company. All OP units receive distributions in accordance with the LCIF partnership agreement. To the extent that the Company's dividend per common share is less than the stated distribution per OP unit per the LCIF partnership agreement, the distributions per OP unit are reduced by the percentage reduction in the Company's dividend per common share. No OP units have a liquidation preference.

LCIF's right to receive these loans will expire if no OP units remain outstanding and all such loans repaid. No amounts have been advanced under this agreement.

From time to time, the Company is directly and indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

GSMSC II 2006-GG6 Bridgewater Hills Corporate Center, LLC v. Lexington Realty Trust (Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York-Index No. 653117/2015)

On September 16, 2015, GSMSC II 2006-GG6 Bridgewater Hills Corporate Center, LLC commenced an action as lender against the Company based on a limited guaranty of recourse obligations executed by a predecessor entity of the Company in connection with a mortgage loan secured by a property owner subsidiary's commercial property in Bridgewater, New Jersey.  The property owner subsidiary defaulted due to non-payment after the sole tenant vacated at the end of the lease term.  The lender seeks approximately $9,200 in order to satisfy the outstanding amount of the loan, plus interest, reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs and disbursements related thereto. The Company has not recorded any liability relating to this litigation as of March 31, 2017 as the Company believes that a loss contingency is “reasonably possible” (as defined by FASB ASC 450-20-20) but not “probable” (as defined by FASB ASC 450-20-20).

The lender claims that the Company's limited guaranty was triggered due to the merger of Newkirk Realty Trust, Inc. and Lexington Corporate Properties Trust on December 31, 2006, arguing that it constituted an event of default because it was a transfer that was not permitted by the loan agreement. The limited guaranty provides that the guarantor's liability for the guaranteed obligations shall not exceed $10,000, which the Company believes is its maximum exposure to loss. The Company intends to vigorously defend the lender’s claim.  The Company filed a motion to dismiss, which was generally denied. The parties are presently in the discovery phase, with document productions ongoing and with fact and expert depositions currently expected to be conducted and completed later this year.

The lender also brought a foreclosure action against the property owner subsidiary. A foreclosure sale was held September 13, 2016 and the lender acquired the property for a nominal amount.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company incurred $984 in legal costs relating to this litigation, which are included in general and administrative expense on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

In addition to the commitments and contingencies disclosed elsewhere, the Partnership has the following commitments and contingencies.

The Partnership is obligated under certain tenant leases, including its proportionate share for leases for non-consolidated entities, to fund the expansion of the underlying leased properties. The Partnership, under certain circumstances, may guarantee to tenants the completion of base building improvements and the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of its subsidiaries.

The Partnership and Lexington are parties to a funding agreement under which Lexington may be required to fund distributions made on account of OP units. Pursuant to the funding agreement, if the Partnership does not have sufficient cash available to make a quarterly distribution to its limited partners in an amount in accordance with the partnership agreement, Lexington is required to fund the shortfall. Payments under the agreement will be made in the form of loans to the Partnership and will bear interest at prevailing rates as determined by Lexington in its discretion, but no less than the applicable federal rate. The Partnership's right to receive these loans will expire if no OP units remain outstanding and all such loans are repaid. No amounts had been advanced under this funding agreement.

In May 2014, the Partnership guaranteed $250,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.40% Senior Notes due 2024 (“2024 Senior Notes”) issued by Lexington at an issuance price of 99.883% of the principal amount and in June 2013, the Partnership guaranteed $250,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Senior Notes due 2023 (“2023 Senior Notes”) issued by Lexington at an issuance price of 99.026% of the principal amount, collectively referred to as the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes are unsecured and pay interest semi-annually in arrears. Lexington may redeem the Senior Notes at its option at any time prior to maturity in whole or in part by paying the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus a premium.

From time to time, the Partnership is directly or indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of the Partnership's business. The Partnership believes, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company and Financial Statement Presentation (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2017

New Accounting Pronouncements or Change in Accounting Principle [Line Items]

Basis of presentation and consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP. The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Variable interest entity

The Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of certain VIEs as it has a controlling financial interest in these entities, including LCIF, in which the Company has an approximate 96% interest.

Use of estimates

Use of Estimates. Management has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions to prepare these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, including, among others, those relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors. Management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, the allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets, loans receivable and equity method investments, the valuation of derivative financial instruments, the valuation of compensation plans and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Fair value measurements

Fair Value Measurements. The Company follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, as amended (“Topic 820”), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk. The Company has formally elected to apply the portfolio exception within Topic 820 with respect to measuring counterparty risk for all of its derivative transactions subject to master netting arrangements.

Acquisition, development and construction arrangements

Acquisition, Development and Construction Arrangements. The Company evaluates loans receivable where the Company participates in residual profits through loan provisions or other contracts to ascertain whether the Company has the same risks and rewards as an owner or a joint venture partner. Where the Company concludes that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, the Company reflects such loan receivable as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan receivable and the Company capitalizes interest during the construction period. In arrangements where the Company engages a developer to construct a property or provides funds to a tenant to develop a property, the Company will capitalize the funds provided to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period.

Recently issued accounting guidance

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends the guidance for revenue recognition to eliminate the industry-specific revenue recognition guidance and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. Leases are specifically excluded from this ASU and will be governed by the applicable lease codifications; however, this update may have implications in certain variable payment terms included in lease agreements and in sale and leaseback transactions. The effective date of the new guidance was updated by ASU 2015-14 and is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company will adopt ASU 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018 and anticipates using the modified retrospective with cumulative-effective transition method. The Company is identifying applicable revenue streams and continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for those leases classified as operating leases at the commencement date that have lease terms of more than 12 months. The accounting applied to lessors under this new guidance is largely unchanged from prior guidance. Lessors in most cases will continue to record operating leases as operating leases and recognize lease income from those leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The ASU is expected to result in the recognition of a right-to-use asset and related liability to account for the Company's future obligations under its ground lease arrangements for which the Company is the lessee. Additionally, the new ASU will require that the Company capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years, and requires a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements; with early adoption permitted. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation-Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718), which involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this new guidance on January 1, 2017. This new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for share-based award forfeitures in compensation costs when they occur.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those years; however early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe this guidance will have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which clarifies guidance on the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. Upon adoption, restricted cash balances will be included along with cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the period and beginning of period, respectively, in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods presented. Upon adoption, separate line items showing changes in restricted cash balances will be eliminated from the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects that acquisitions of real estate or in-substance real estate will not meet the revised definition of a business and thus will be treated as asset acquisitions. Acquisition costs for those acquisitions that are not businesses will be capitalized rather than expensed.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Topic 610-20), which requires that all entities account for the derecognition of a business in accordance with ASC 810, including instances in which the business is considered in-substance real estate.  The ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early application is permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements or Change in Accounting Principle [Line Items]

Basis of presentation and consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP. The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Partnership consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Partnership is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). Entities that the Partnership does not control and entities that are VIEs in which the Partnership is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for under appropriate GAAP.

Earnings per unit

Earnings Per Unit. Net income (loss) per unit is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of units outstanding during the period. There are no potential dilutive securities.

Unit redemptions

Unit Redemptions. The Partnership's limited partner units that are issued and outstanding, other than those held by Lexington, are currently redeemable at certain times, only at the option of the holders, for shares of beneficial interests classified as common stock of Lexington, par value $0.0001 per share ("common shares"), on a one to approximately 1.13 basis, subject to future adjustments. These units are not mandatorily redeemable by the Partnership.

Use of estimates

Use of Estimates. The Partnership has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions to prepare these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, including, among others, relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment.

Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Fair value measurements

Fair Value Measurements. The Partnership follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“Topic 820”), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Partnership utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk.

Where the Partnership concludes that such arrangements are more appropriately treated as an investment in real estate, the Partnership reflects such loan receivable as an equity investment in real estate under construction in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. In these cases, no interest income is recorded on the loan receivable and the Partnership records capitalized interest during the construction period. In arrangements where the Partnership engages a developer to construct a property or provide funds to a tenant to develop a property, the Partnership will capitalize the funds provided to the developer/tenant and internal costs of interest and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period.

Allocation of overhead expenses

Allocation of Overhead Expenses. The Partnership does not pay a fee to the General Partner for the day-to-day management of the Partnership. Certain expenses incurred by the General Partner and its affiliates, including Lexington, such as corporate-level interest, amortization of deferred loan costs, payroll and general and administrative expenses are allocated to the Partnership and reimbursed to the General Partner in accordance with the Partnership's partnership agreement. The allocation is based upon gross rental revenues.

Distributions and allocations of income and loss

Distributions; Allocations of Income and Loss. As provided in the Partnership's partnership agreement, distributions and income and loss for financial reporting purposes are allocated to the partners based on their ownership of units. Special allocation rules included in the partnership agreement affect the allocation of taxable income and loss.

Co-borrower debt

Co-borrower Debt. The Partnership is subject to ASC 405-40, which requires recognition of such obligations as the sum of (a) the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and (b) any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors.
