NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2011

(Unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION

Dividend Capital Total Realty Trust Inc. is a Maryland corporation formed on April 11, 2005 to invest in a diverse portfolio of real property and real estate related investments. As used herein, “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Dividend Capital Total Realty Trust Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and partnerships except where the context otherwise requires.

We operate in a manner intended to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2006, when we first elected REIT status. We utilize an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (“UPREIT”) organizational structure to hold all or substantially all of our assets through our operating partnership, Dividend Capital Total Realty Operating Partnership, L.P. (our “Operating Partnership”). Furthermore, our Operating Partnership wholly owns a taxable REIT subsidiary, DCTRT Leasing Corp. (the “TRS”), through which we execute certain business transactions that might otherwise have an adverse impact on our status as a REIT if such business transactions were to occur directly or indirectly through our Operating Partnership.

Our day-to-day activities are managed by Dividend Capital Total Advisors LLC (our “Advisor”), an affiliate, under the terms and conditions of an advisory agreement (as amended from time to time the “Advisory Agreement”). Our Advisor and its affiliates receive various forms of compensation, reimbursements and fees for services relating to the investment and management of our real estate assets.

We are currently invested in a diverse portfolio of real properties and debt related investments. Our investment in real property consists of office, industrial, and retail properties located in North America. Additionally, we are invested in certain debt related investments, including originating and participating in mortgage loans secured by real estate, junior portions of first mortgages on commercial properties (“B-notes”), and mezzanine debt.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements (herein referred to as “financial statements,” “balance sheets,” or “statements of operations”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements. Accordingly, these statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments and eliminations, consisting only of normal recurring items necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with GAAP. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of operating results for a full year. The unaudited information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the Commission on March 25, 2011.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts included in the accompanying financial statements for 2010 have been reclassified to conform to the 2011 financial statements presentation. We reclassified all amounts reported as impairment on real property, provision for loss on debt related investments, and other-than-temporary impairment on securities from Other Income (Expense) to Operating Expenses for all periods presented.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the periods during which such revisions are determined to be necessary.

Investment in Real Estate Securities

As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we held investments in real estate securities of approximately $3.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively. Real estate securities are included in Other assets, net, in the accompanying balance sheets.

Table of Contents

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, we recorded a net loss of approximately $3.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, related to other-than-temporary impairment of our real estate securities. We did not record other-than-temporary impairment losses during the three months ended September 30, 2011 or 2010.

New Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) recently issued FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-02, A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring (“ASU 11-02”), which provides additional guidance clarifying when the restructuring of a receivable should be considered a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). Specifically, ASU 11-02 provides additional guidance for determining whether the creditor has granted a concession and whether the debtor is experiencing financial difficulty. This may significantly change how some creditors evaluate whether a restructuring constitutes a TDR, which may impact specific impairment-measurement methods and disclosures for receivables restructured in a TDR. ASU 11-02 generally will result in creditors identifying more TDRs and ends the deferral of activity-based disclosures about TDRs that are part of the new credit-quality disclosure requirements. We have adopted ASU 11-02 as of July 1, 2011, which did not have any impact, but will impact future periods in which a TDR is executed.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).” This pronouncement was issued to provide a consistent definition of fair value and ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for level 3 fair value measurements. This pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. We do not expect that the adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of equity and requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. As ASU 2011-05 concerns presentation and disclosure only, its adoption will not have an impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Acquisitions

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we acquired two retail properties in the New England market aggregating approximately 147,000 square feet with a combined purchase price of approximately $21.8 million. We did not acquire any real property during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Discontinued Operations

In July, 2011 the borrower on one of our debt related investments fully repaid the outstanding balance and unpaid interest on a debt investment structured as a mortgage note that was collateralized by an office building in the Silicon Valley, California market. The terms of the debt investment included a provision that allowed us to participate in the profit recognized upon subsequent sale of the property securing the mortgage note. We have included the amount of the gain within our gain (loss) on disposition within discontinued operations as the gain directly related to our previous sale of the property. Additionally, and as discussed in more detail in Note 5 to the financial statements, we disposed of one office property during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. We present the results of operations of these and all properties previously disposed of and their respective aggregate net gains (losses), collectively, as discontinued operations in our accompanying statements of operations when the operations and cash flows have been (or will be) eliminated from our ongoing operations and we will not have any significant continuing involvement. Interest expense is included in discontinued operations only if it is directly attributable to these operations or properties. The following table summarizes amounts recorded as discontinued operations (amounts in thousands).

For the same periods in 2010, tenant recovery income recognized was approximately $9.0 million and $23.4 million, respectively.

4. DEBT RELATED INVESTMENTS

As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had invested in eight and 11 debt investments, respectively, with net investment amounts of approximately $110.1 million and $217.5 million, respectively. The weighted average maturity of our debt investments as of September 30, 2011 was 2.8 years, based on our recorded net investment.

(1) Weighted average yield is calculated on an unlevered basis using the amount invested, current interest rates and accretion of premiums or discounts realized upon the initial investment for each investment type as of September 30, 2011. Yields for LIBOR-based, floating-rate investments have been calculated using the one-month LIBOR rate as of September 30, 2011 for purposes of this table. As of September 30, 2011 we had two debt related investments with a combined net investment amount of $58.3 million that bear interest at the floating rates indexed to LIBOR. All of our remaining debt related investments bear interest at fixed rates. We have assumed a yield of zero on the two debt related investments for which we have recognized a full allowance for loss as of September 30, 2011.
(2) During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 the respective borrowers completely repaid three of our debt related investments. Amounts recorded include an early prepayment fee received of approximately $813,000, accelerated amortization of origination fees of approximately $488,000, offset by accelerated amortization of deferred due diligence costs of approximately $163,000 related to these repayments. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we (or our loan servicer) received full and complete repayment of two of our debt related investments. There were no unamortized deferred amounts related to these repayments.

Repayments

Westin Galleria

In January, 2011 we received full and complete repayment of a debt investment structured as a mortgage note that was collateralized by two hotel properties located in the Houston, Texas market (the “Westin Galleria Loan”). Our investment in the Westin Galleria Loan was approximately $65.0 million as of December 31, 2010. Upon repayment of this loan to us, the borrower paid us a prepayment fee of approximately $813,000, which has been included in debt related income in the statement of operations. The Westin Galleria Loan effectively secured approximately $48.8 million in other secured borrowings that we repaid upon the repayment of this debt investment. We realized net proceeds upon repayment of approximately $17.6 million, including the receipt of accrued interest payable to us. The prepayment of this debt investment caused us to accelerate net unamortized origination fee and deferred due diligence costs that were included in the carrying value of the investment of approximately $325,000, which was recorded as an increase to debt related income.

Rue Ferrari

In July, 2011 the borrower on one of our debt related investments fully repaid the outstanding balance and unpaid interest on a debt investment structured as a mortgage note that was collateralized by an office building in the Silicon Valley, California market, as well as an amount related to a profit participation agreement related to the sale of the property securing the mortgage note. Related to the profit participation, approximately $2.9 million is recorded as a gain on the sale of the property and is presented within discontinued operations in our statements of operations. After our repayment of other secured borrowings that were collateralized by this investment, we realized net proceeds of approximately $7.3 million on this repayment.

Central Research Park

In September, 2011 the borrower on one of our debt related investments fully repaid the outstanding balance and unpaid interest on a debt investment structured as a B-note that was collateralized by an office park in the Silicon Valley, California market. We realized net proceeds of approximately $20.3 million, which we received subsequent to September 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the amount receivable is recorded in other assets, net in our accompanying balance sheet.

Impairment

We review each of our debt related investments individually on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when such an evaluation is warranted, to determine if impairment exists. Accordingly, we do not group our debt related investments into classes by credit quality indicator. A debt related investment is impaired when, based on current information and events (including economic, industry and geographical factors), it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due, both principal and interest, according to the contractual terms of the agreement. When an investment is deemed impaired, the impairment is measured based on the expected future cash flows discounted at the investment’s effective interest rate. As a practical expedient, we may measure impairment based on the fair value of the collateral of an impaired collateral-dependent debt investment. Regardless of the measurement method, we measure impairment based on the fair value of the collateral when it is determined that foreclosure is probable. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized approximately $3.1 million and $5.6 million in provision losses, respectively, in the accompanying statements of operations. For the same periods in 2010, we recognized approximately $0 and $3.0 million in provision losses, respectively, offset in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 by the reversal of previously recorded provision losses of approximately $13.7 million. The table below presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances, between December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2011, of our allowance for loan loss (amounts in thousands).

When we determine that a debt investment is impaired, we record income on the investment using the cash basis of accounting.

As of September 30, 2011, we had three impaired debt related investments with an unpaid principal balance of approximately $38.0 million.

(1) Amounts presented are net of unamortized discounts to the face value of our outstanding fixed-rate mortgages of $4.3 million and $5.2 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
(2) “Gross Investment Amount” as used here and throughout this document represents the allocated gross basis of real property and debt related investments, after certain adjustments. Gross Investment Amount for real property (i) includes the effect of intangible lease liabilities of approximately $122.8 million and $119.4 million, as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, (ii) excludes accumulated depreciation and amortization on assets of approximately $343.3 million and $247.6 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, and (iii) includes the impact of impairments of approximately $3.9 million as of December 31, 2010. Amounts reported for debt related investments represent our net accounting basis of the debt investments, which includes (i) unpaid principal balances, (ii) unamortized discounts, premiums, and deferred charges, and (iii) allowances for loan loss of approximately $20.5 million and $15.0 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
(3) As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, floating-rate mortgage notes were subject to interest rates at spreads ranging from 1.40% to 3.50% over one-month LIBOR, certain of which are subject to a 1.0% LIBOR floor.
(4) Consists of mezzanine loan financing obtained from the seller of a portfolio of 32 office and industrial properties that we purchased on June 25, 2010 (the “NOIP Portfolio”).

As of September 30, 2011, 18 mortgage notes were interest only and 23 mortgage notes were fully amortizing with outstanding balances of approximately $828.4 million and $623.9 million, respectively. We were in compliance with all financial debt covenants as of September 30, 2011.

As of September 30, 2011, a consolidated subsidiary was in default on a mortgage note borrowing totaling $21.3 million, which was collateralized by an office property with gross investment amounts totaling $28.0 million that we held in a joint venture in which we are not the managing partner. Our ownership of this joint venture was 80.0% and our default occurred as a result of us not making monthly debt service payments as required by the loan agreement. We are in communication with the lender in an effort to restructure the loan terms so that they would be mutually agreeable to both parties. However, there are no assurances that we will be successful in our negotiations with the lender. Accordingly, pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement, should the lender enforce their rights, we may be subject to interest rates increasing to a higher default rate and/or the lender foreclosing on the underlying real property collateral. With the exception of customary “carve-outs” (none of which we believe apply to this loan), this loan is not recourse to us, therefore only our equity investment in the property is at risk of loss. This default does not impact our remaining debt covenants.

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the lender on two mortgages that we had previously defaulted on foreclosed on the property collateralizing the mortgages. The related property collateralizing these mortgages was held in a joint venture in which we were not the managing partner. The carrying amount of this asset at the time of foreclosure was approximately $5.2 million, and the related loan balance was approximately $6.4 million. We accounted for the foreclosure as a disposition of real property and derecognition of the related loan. The resulting gain of approximately $1.2 million, or less than $0.01 per share, is included in our accompanying statements of operations as discontinued operations.

Line of Credit

On September 27, 2011, we entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), as administrative agent for itself and other lenders that are parties to the Credit Facility, and KeyBank National Association as syndication agent. Under the Credit Facility, we may borrow up to $100 million (the “Facility Amount”), and, subject to sufficient lender participation, we also have the right during the first two years of the Credit Facility term to increase the Facility Amount by an aggregate of $100 million to a total Facility Amount of $200 million. The Credit Facility also includes a standby letter of credit facility with a $25 million sublimit and a swing line facility with a sublimit of up to $10 million. The Credit Facility is secured by a pledge of certain distribution interests held (directly or indirectly) by the Operating Partnership through its ownership interests in certain subsidiaries. Further, the Credit Facility is secured by a pledge of equity interests in certain direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. The proceeds of the Credit Facility will be used by us for general purposes, including but not limited to debt refinancing, property acquisitions, new construction, renovations, expansions, tenant improvement costs and equity investments primarily associated with commercial real estate properties.

Table of Contents

The entire unpaid principal balance of all borrowings under the Credit Facility and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon will be due and payable in full on September 27, 2014, which date may be extended for two additional one-year periods provided that no default has occurred and subject to, for each one-year extension, an extension fee equal to 0.25% of the amount committed under the Credit Facility. We may borrow under the Credit Facility at rates equal to (1) LIBOR plus the applicable LIBOR margin (the “LIBOR Rate”) or (2) the greater of (a) the prime rate announced by PNC, (b) the Federal Funds Open Rate plus 0.5% or (c) LIBOR (adjusted daily) plus 1.0%, plus the applicable margin (the “Base Rate”). The applicable LIBOR margin may vary from 3.0% to 4.0% and the applicable base rate margin may vary from 2.0% to 3.0% based on our then current leverage ratio. All swing line loans issued under the Credit Facility will bear interest at the Base Rate. We will be required to make interest-only payments, and may prepay the Credit Facility in whole or in part at any time without penalty.

In addition to customary provisions in respect of events of default, and affirmative, negative and other financial covenants and representations, warranties and borrowing conditions, the Credit Facility provides for the maintenance of consolidated quarterly financial covenants, including (i) a total leverage ratio test; (ii) a fixed charge coverage ratio test, (iii) a debt yield test; and (iv) a tangible net worth test. As of September 30, 2011, we were in compliance with all such requirements, and there were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility. The entire amount of the facility was available to us as of September 30, 2011.

6. HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

We maintain risk management control systems to monitor interest rate risk attributable to both our outstanding and forecasted debt obligations. We generally seek to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows by selectively utilizing derivative instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates on loans secured by our assets. While this hedging strategy is designed to minimize the impact on our net income (loss) and cash provided by operating activities from changes in interest rates, the overall returns on our investments may be reduced. Our board of directors has established policies and procedures regarding our use of derivative instruments for hedging or other purposes to achieve these risk management objectives.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps and caps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an up-front premium payment. In connection with the borrowing activity noted in Note 5 to these financial statements, above, we have entered into and plan to enter into certain interest rate derivatives with the goal of mitigating our exposure to adverse fluctuations in the interest payments on our one-month LIBOR-indexed debt.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During the next 12 months, we estimate that approximately $2.5 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense related to effective forward started interest rate swaps where the hedging instrument has been terminated, and we estimate that approximately $337,000 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense related to active effective hedges of floating rate debt issuances. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. The table below presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances, between December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2011, of our accumulated other comprehensive loss (“OCI”), net of amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests related to the effective portion of our cash flow hedges as presented on our financial statements (amounts in thousands).

Designated Hedges

As of September 30, 2011, we had four outstanding interest rate caps and three outstanding interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, with a total notional amount of $157.1 million. As of December 31, 2010, we had three outstanding interest rate caps and three outstanding interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, with a total notional amount of $154.0 million.

Undesignated Hedges

Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to hedge our exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks but do not meet hedge accounting requirements. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated in hedging relationships are recorded directly in earnings and resulted in a loss of approximately $5,000 and $84,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, and $170,000 and $282,000 in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 we had two outstanding interest rate caps that were not designated as hedges with a total notional amount of approximately $327.3 million. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, these interest rate caps were recorded as other assets on our financial statements with a fair value of approximately $1,000 and $76,000, respectively.

Fair Value of Investments in Real Estate Securities

Our real estate securities comprise commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) and commercial real estate collateralized debt obligation (“CRE-CDO”) securities. Our pricing procedures for each of the two categories are applied to each specific investment within their respective categories. We estimate the fair value of our CMBS and CRE-CDO securities using a combination of observable market information and unobservable market assumptions. Observable market information considered in these fair market valuations include benchmark interest rates, interest rate curves, credit market indexes and swap curves. Unobservable market assumptions considered in the determination of the fair market valuations of our CMBS and CRE-CDO investments include market assumptions related to discount rates, default rates, prepayment rates, reviews of trustee or investor reports and nonbinding broker quotes and pricing services in what is currently an inactive secondary market. Additionally, we consider security-specific characteristics in determining the fair values of our CMBS and CRE-CDO investments, which include consideration of credit enhancements, the underlying collateral’s average default rates, the average delinquency rate and loan-to-value and several other characteristics. As a result, both Level 2 and Level 3 inputs are used in arriving at the valuation of our investments in CMBS and CRE-CDOs. We determined the Level 3 inputs used in determining the fair value of our investments in CMBS and CRE-CDO securities to be significant. As such, all investments in CMBS and CRE-CDO securities fall under the Level 3 category of the fair value hierarchy.

8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We are required to disclose the fair value of our financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which such financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. 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 our estimated fair value 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 and changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values. In that regard, the fair value estimates may not be substantiated by comparison to independent markets, and in many cases, may not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument.

The fair values estimated below are indicative of certain interest rate and other assumptions as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and may not take into consideration the effects of subsequent interest rate or other assumption fluctuations, or changes in the values of underlying collateral. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. In addition, we determined that the fair values of our other secured borrowings approximate their carrying values as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, since the floating rates on the balances approximate market rates.

See Note 7 to these financial statements above for details regarding methodologies and key assumptions applied to determining the fair value of our investments in real estate securities and derivative instruments. The methodologies used and key assumptions made to estimate fair values of the other financial instruments described in the above table are as follows:

Debt Related Investments — The fair value of our debt investments as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis that utilized estimates of scheduled cash flows and discount rates estimated to approximate those that a willing buyer and seller might use.

Mortgage Notes — The fair value of our fixed-rate mortgage notes as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on our estimate of market interest rates. Credit spreads relating to the underlying instruments are based on unobservable Level 3 inputs, which we have determined to be our best estimate of current market spreads of similar instruments.

9. NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

Our noncontrolling interests consist of three components: (i) joint venture partnership interests held by our partners, (ii) non-voting units of limited partnership interests of our Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) held by third parties and (iii) OP Units held by the parent of our Advisor that constitute a separate series of partnership interests with special distribution rights (“Special Units”). The following table summarizes noncontrolling interest balances as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 in terms of cumulative contributions, distributions and cumulative allocations of net loss and comprehensive loss (amounts in thousands).

As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we owned approximately 93.1% and 93.4% of our Operating Partnership, respectively, and the remaining interests in our Operating Partnership were owned by third-party investors and our Advisor. After a period of one year from the date of issuance, holders of OP Units may request the Operating Partnership to redeem their OP Units. We have the option of redeeming the OP Units with cash, shares of our common stock, or with a combination of cash and common stock. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we issued approximately 20,000 and 118,000 shares of our common stock, respectively, in redemption of approximately 20,000 and 119,000 OP Units, respectively, in accordance with this option. In May 2005, our Operating Partnership issued 20,000 OP Units to our Advisor for gross proceeds of $200,000. The Advisor exchanged these OP Units in exchange for 20,000 shares of our common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2011. In addition, as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our Operating Partnership had issued approximately 13.6 million and 12.8 million OP Units, respectively, to third-party investors in connection with its private placement offerings, and such units had a maximum approximate redemption value of $114.7 million and $128.1 million, respectively, based on our most recently announced estimated value per share of common stock (discussed in Note 10 in more detail) as of September 30, 2011, and based on the most recent selling price of our common stock pursuant to a primary offering for the OP Units outstanding as of December 31, 2010. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, our Operating Partnership issued approximately 961,000 OP Units pursuant to our Operating Partnership’s private placements. Our Operating Partnership did not issue any OP units during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

10. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock

On May 27, 2005, we filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the Commission in connection with an initial public offering of our common stock, which was declared effective on January 27, 2006. As of the close of business on September 30, 2009, we terminated the primary portion of our public offering of shares of our common stock and ceased accepting new subscriptions to purchase shares of our common stock. However, we have offered and will continue to offer shares of common stock through the Distribution Reinvestment Plan (the “DRIP Plan”). Effective March 11, 2011, we amended the DRIP Plan to offer shares of our common stock at the estimated per share value of $8.45, which we announced on March 11, 2011 in order to assist broker dealers with certain obligations under Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) regulations.

Distributions

We accrue and pay distributions on a quarterly basis. Each quarter, our board of directors declares and authorizes the following quarter’s distribution. We calculate individual payments of distributions to each stockholder or OP Unit holder based upon daily record dates during each quarter, so that investors are eligible to earn distributions immediately upon purchasing shares of our common stock or upon purchasing OP Units.

The following table describes our total distributions declared on our common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, and the portion of each distribution that was paid in cash and reinvested in shares (dollar amounts in thousands).

13. SEGMENT INFORMATION

We have two reportable operating segments: investments in real property and debt related investments. We organize and analyze the operations and results of each of these segments independently, due to inherently different considerations for each segment. Such considerations include, but are not limited to, the nature and characteristics of the investment, investment strategies and objectives and distinct management of each segment. The following table sets forth revenue and the components of net operating income (“NOI”) of our segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 (amounts in thousands).

 

     For the Three Months ended September 30,

(1) Does not include results of operations of real property assets categorized as discontinued operations.
(2) Includes operating results from our investment in an unconsolidated joint venture.

We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental financial performance measure because NOI reflects the specific operating performance of our real properties and debt related investments, and excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of each property, such as interest income, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, asset management fees, interest expense and noncontrolling interests. However, NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance as a whole, since it does exclude such items that could materially impact our results of operations. Further, our NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies, as they may use different methodologies for calculating NOI. Therefore, we believe net income, as defined by GAAP, to be the most appropriate measure to evaluate our overall financial performance.

The following table is a reconciliation of our NOI to our reported net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 (amounts in thousands).

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGINCIES

On September 7, 2011, the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, entered a final order of dismissal (the “Order”) of the civil action titled Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation v. iStar NG, LP et al. (No. CL 2010 10025) (the “Lawsuit”), after a settlement was reached among us, iStar NG, LP, TRT Acquisitions, LLC and TRT NOIP Colshire—McLean LLC (collectively with the Company, the “Dividend Capital Defendants”), iStar Financial Inc. (“iStar Financial” and, together with the Dividend Capital Defendants, the “Defendants”), and Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (“Plaintiff”). The Order dismissed all claims, affirmative defenses and counterclaims with prejudice and provided that, as between Plaintiff and Defendants, each will bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs. As previously disclosed in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Dividend Capital Defendants have obtained indemnities from iStar Financial and insurance coverage for the Lawsuit, which are subject to certain terms, conditions, and limitations. The settlement of the Lawsuit did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

We have evaluated subsequent events for the period from September 30, 2011, the date of these financial statements, through the date these financial statements are issued.

Repayment of debt related investment

On September 30, 2011, the borrower on one of our debt related investments with a net investment amount of $20.0 million fully repaid the amount due upon maturity, in addition to accrued interest, to our loan servicer. Accordingly, this amount is presented within Other assets, net, as of September 30, 2011, in our accompanying balance sheet. On October 3, 2011, our loan servicer remitted the amount collected to us in full.

Disposition of Real Property

Subsequent to September 30, 2011, we entered into an agreement to sell an industrial property comprising 604,000 net rentable square feet located in the Cincinnati, Ohio market. We held the property through a joint venture wherein which we owned a 95.6% interest in the property. We sold the property on October 13, 2011 for a purchase price of approximately $30.0 million, and after the payoff of the related loan balance of $12.7 million, a related prepayment penalty of $2.2 million, and other disposition costs, we realized net proceeds of $13.4 million.

Tender Offer by Issuer

Subsequent to September 30, 2011, we announced an offer to purchase up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock for $6.00 per share in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest. The offer will expire at 12:00 midnight, Mountain Standard Time, on November 21, 2011, or such other date to which the offer may be extended.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may be deemed to be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Such forward-looking statements relate to, without limitation, our future capital expenditures, distributions and acquisitions (including the amount and nature thereof), other development trends of the real estate industry, business strategies, and the growth of our operations. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “project,” “continue,” or the negative of these words, or other similar words or terms. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Among the factors that may cause our results to vary are general economic and business (particularly real estate and capital market) conditions being less favorable than expected, the business opportunities that may be presented to and pursued by us, changes in laws or regulations (including changes to laws governing the taxation of REITs), risk of acquisitions, availability and creditworthiness of prospective tenants, availability of capital (debt and equity), interest rate fluctuations, competition, supply and demand for properties in our current and any proposed market areas, tenants’ ability to pay rent at current or increased levels, accounting principles, policies and guidelines applicable to REITs, environmental, regulatory and/or safety requirements, tenant bankruptcies and defaults, the availability and cost of comprehensive insurance, including coverage for terrorist acts, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. For a further discussion of these factors and other risk factors that could lead to actual results materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the Commission on March 25, 2011 and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise.

This section of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q provides an overview of what management believes to be the key elements for understanding (i) our company and how we manage our business, (ii) how we measure our performance and our operating results, (iii) our liquidity and capital resources, and (iv) the financial statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Dividend Capital Total Realty Trust Inc. is a Maryland corporation formed on April 11, 2005 to invest in a diverse portfolio of real property and real estate related investments.

We believe we have operated in such a manner to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2006, when we first elected REIT status. We utilize an UPREIT organizational structure to hold all or substantially all of our assets through our Operating Partnership. Furthermore, our Operating Partnership wholly owns a taxable REIT subsidiary, DCTRT Leasing Corp., through which we execute certain business transactions that might otherwise have an adverse impact on our status as a REIT if such business transactions were to occur directly or indirectly through our Operating Partnership. We are an externally managed REIT and have no employees. Our day-to-day activities are managed by our Advisor, an affiliate, under the terms and conditions of the Advisory Agreement.

The primary source of our revenue and earnings is comprised of rent received under long-term operating leases of our properties, including reimbursements from customers for certain operating costs, and interest payments received from our debt related investments. Our primary expenses include rental expenses, depreciation and amortization expenses, general and administrative expenses, asset management fees and interest expense.

The cornerstone of our investment strategy is to provide investors seeking a general real estate allocation with a broadly diversified portfolio of assets. Our current investments include:

 

  (1) direct investments in real properties, consisting of office, industrial, and retail properties, located in North America; and

 

  (2) certain debt related investments, including originating and participating in whole mortgage loans secured by commercial real estate, B-notes and mezzanine debt.

 

24


Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2011, we had total gross investments of approximately $3.0 billion (before accumulated depreciation of approximately $343.3 million), comprised of:

 

  (1) 100 operating properties located in 31 geographic markets in the United States, aggregating approximately 19.2 million net rentable square feet. As of September 30, 2011, our real property portfolio was approximately 94.6% leased. Our operating real property portfolio includes an aggregate gross investment amount of approximately $2.9 billion and consists of:

 

   

36 office properties located in 16 geographic markets, aggregating approximately 7.0 million net rentable square feet, with an aggregate gross investment amount of approximately $1.7 billion;

 

   

33 retail properties located in seven geographic markets, aggregating approximately 3.1 million net rentable square feet, with an aggregate gross investment amount of approximately $729.1 million; and

 

   

31 industrial properties located in 17 geographic markets, aggregating approximately 9.0 million net rentable square feet, with an aggregate gross investment amount of approximately $497.3 million.

 

  (2) Approximately $110.1 million in net debt related investments, including (i) investments in mortgage notes of approximately $78.7 million, (ii) investments in B-notes of approximately $13.9 million, and (iii) investments in mezzanine debt of approximately $17.5 million.

Consistent with our investment strategy, we have two business segments: (i) investments in real property and (ii) debt related investments. For a discussion of our business segments and the associated revenue and net operating income by segment, see Note 13 to our financial statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Any future and near-term investment activity is expected to be funded primarily through the use of cash on hand, cash generated from operations, proceeds from the DRIP Plan, proceeds from other public offerings of equity securities, proceeds from the sale of existing investments, and the issuance and assumption of debt obligations.

 

   

Cash on hand — As of September 30, 2011, we had approximately $51.3 million of cash and cash equivalents.

 

   

Cash generated from operations — During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we generated cash of approximately $71.5 million from operations of our real properties and income from debt related investments.

 

   

Proceeds from the DRIP Plan — During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we received approximately $34.8 million in proceeds from the DRIP Plan.

 

   

Proceeds from other public offerings of equity securities — During the year ended December 31, 2010 and during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we did not conduct a public offering of equity securities outside of the DRIP Plan. We have recently filed a registration statement to offer equity securities outside of the DRIP Plan, perhaps as early as the first quarter of 2012. However, such offering is subject to regulatory and other conditions and may not occur.

 

   

Proceeds from the sale or maturity of existing investments —We did not sell any properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 for cash proceeds. However, during that period three of our debt related investments matured, one of which included a profit participation agreement related to the sale of the property securing the respective debt related investment. After our repayment of borrowings secured by these investments, we realized net proceeds of approximately $45.2 million, of which approximately $20.3 million was received subsequent to September 30, 2011.

 

   

The issuance and assumption of debt obligations —During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we incurred net new borrowings of approximately $6.8 million under our repurchase facility. Additionally, we entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility under which we may borrow up to $100 million, or, subject to sufficient lender participation, up to $200 million. As of September 30, 2011, we had not drawn on this facility.

We believe that our existing cash balance, cash generated from operations, proceeds from our DRIP Plan and our ability to sell investments and to issue debt obligations, remains adequate to meet our expected capital obligations for the next twelve months. Maintaining a strong balance sheet remains critical in the current market to position us well to preserve the value of our portfolio and to selectively take advantage of investment opportunities. Historically, we have been prudent in the deployment of our capital, resulting in a slower pace of investments.

Significant Transactions During the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011

Real Property Acquisitions

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we acquired two retail properties in the New England market aggregating 147,000 square feet with a combined purchase price of $21.8 million.

Repayments from debt related investments

Westin Galleria

In January, 2011 we received full and complete repayment of a debt investment structured as a mortgage note that was collateralized by two hotel properties located in the Houston, Texas market (the “Westin Galleria Loan”). Our investment in the Westin Galleria Loan was approximately $65.0 million as of December 31, 2010. Upon repayment of this loan to us, the borrower paid us a prepayment fee of approximately $813,000, which has been included in debt related income in the statement of operations. The Westin Galleria Loan effectively secured approximately $48.8 million in other secured borrowings that we repaid upon the repayment of this debt investment. We realized net proceeds upon repayment of approximately $17.6 million, including the receipt of accrued interest payable to us. The prepayment of this debt investment caused us to accelerate net unamortized origination fee and deferred due diligence costs that were included in the carrying value of the investment of approximately $325,000, which was recorded as an increase to debt related income.

Rue Ferrari

In July, 2011 the borrower on one of our debt related investments fully repaid the outstanding balance and unpaid interest on a debt investment structured as a mortgage note that was collateralized by an office building in the Silicon Valley, California market, as well as an amount related to a profit participation agreement related to the sale of the property securing the mortgage note. Related to the profit participation, approximately $2.9 million is recorded as a gain on the sale of the property and is presented within discontinued operations in our statements of operations. After our repayment of other secured borrowings that were collateralized by this investment, we realized net proceeds of approximately $7.3 million on this repayment.

In September 2011 the borrower on one of our debt related investments fully repaid the outstanding balance and unpaid interest on a debt investment structured as a B-note that was collateralized by an office park in the Silicon Valley, California market. We realized net proceeds of approximately $20.3 million, which we received subsequent to September 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the amount receivable is recorded in other assets, net in our accompanying balance sheet.

How We Measure Our Performance

Funds From Operations

FFO Definition (“FFO”)

We believe that FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), is a meaningful supplemental measure of our operating performance because historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, as reflected through depreciation and amortization expense. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market and other conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for real estate investment trusts that consists of net income (loss), calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization and impairment of depreciable real estate, less gains (or losses) from dispositions of real estate held for investment purposes.

Company-Defined FFO

As part of its guidance concerning FFO, NAREIT has stated that the “management of each of its member companies has the responsibility and authority to publish financial information that it regards as useful to the financial community.” As a result, modifications to FFO are common among REITs as companies seek to provide financial measures that meaningfully reflect the specific characteristics of their businesses. In addition to the NAREIT definition of FFO and other GAAP measures, we provide a Company-Defined FFO measure that we believe is helpful in assisting management and investors assess the sustainability of our operating performance. As described further below, our Company-Defined FFO presents a performance metric that adjusts for items that we do not believe to be related to our ongoing operations. In addition, these adjustments are made in connection with calculating certain of the Company’s financial covenants including its interest coverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio and therefore we believe this metric will help our investors better understand how certain of our lenders view and measure the financial performance of the Company and ultimately its compliance with these financial covenants. However, no single measure can provide users of financial information with sufficient information and only our disclosures read as a whole can be relied upon to adequately portray our financial position, liquidity and results of operations.

Our Company-Defined FFO is derived by adjusting FFO for the following items: gains and losses on real estate securities, gains and losses associated with provisions for loss on debt related investments, acquisition-related expenses, gains and losses on derivatives, and gains and losses associated with financing commitments. Management’s evaluation of our future operating performance excludes these items based on the following economic considerations:

Gains and losses on real estate securities and provision for loss on debt related investments Our investment strategy does not include purchasing and selling real properties, real estate securities or debt related investments for purposes of generating short-term gains. Rather, our strategy is focused on longer term investments while generating current income. As such, management believes any gains or losses generated from the sale or impairment of any of our real estate securities or debt related investments are not related to our ongoing operations. Management believes that providing a performance metric based primarily on income generated from the portfolio, absent the effects of gains and losses and impairments, to be a useful metric providing for a better indication of the sustainability of our operating performance for management and investors.

Acquisition-related expenses — For GAAP purposes, expenses associated with the acquisition of real property, including acquisition fees paid to our Advisor and gains or losses related to the change in fair value of contingent consideration related to the acquisition of real property, are recorded to earnings. We believe by excluding acquisition-related expenses, Company-Defined FFO provides useful supplemental information for management and investors when evaluating the sustainability of our operating performance, because these types of expenses are directly correlated to our investment activity rather than our ongoing operating activity.

Gains and losses on derivatives — Gains and losses on derivatives represent the gains or losses on the fair value of derivative instruments that are not accounted for as hedges of the underlying financing transactions. Such gains and losses may be due to the nonoccurrence of forecasted financings or ineffectiveness due to changes in the expected terms of financing transactions. As these gains or losses relate to underlying long-term assets and liabilities, where we are not speculating or trading assets, our

management believes that any such gains or losses are not related to our ongoing operations. Accordingly, we believe by excluding anticipated gains or losses on derivatives, Company-Defined FFO provides useful supplemental information for management and investors when evaluating the sustainability of our operating performance.

Gains and losses on financing commitments — Gains and losses on financing commitments represent gains or losses incurred as a result of the early retirement of debt obligations and breakage costs and fees incurred related to rate lock agreements with prospective lenders. Such gains and losses may be due to dispositions of assets, the repayment of debt prior to its contractual maturity or the nonoccurrence of forecasted financings. Our management believes that any such gains or losses are not related to our ongoing operations. Accordingly, we believe by excluding gains and losses on financing commitments, Company-Defined FFO provides useful supplemental information for management and investors when evaluating the sustainability of our operating performance.

We also believe that Company-Defined FFO allows investors and analysts to compare the performance of our portfolio with other REITs that are not currently affected by the adjusted items. In addition, as many other REITs adjust FFO to exclude the items described above, we believe that our calculation and reporting of Company-Defined FFO may assist investors and analysts in comparing our performance with that of other REITs. However, because Company-Defined FFO excludes items that are an important component in an analysis of our historical performance, such supplemental measure should not be construed as a historical performance measure and may exclude items that have a material effect on the value of our common stock.

The following unaudited tables presents a reconciliation of Company-Defined FFO to FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 (amounts in thousands, except per share information).

Limitations of FFO and Company-Defined FFO

FFO (both NAREIT-defined and Company-Defined) is presented herein as a supplemental financial measure and has inherent limitations. We do not use FFO or Company-Defined FFO as, nor should they be considered to be, an alternative to net income (loss) computed under GAAP as an indicator of our operating performance, or as an alternative to cash from operating activities computed under GAAP, or as an indicator of our ability to fund our short or long-term cash requirements. Management uses FFO and Company-Defined FFO as indications of our future operating performance and as a guide to making decisions about future investments. Our FFO and Company-Defined FFO calculations do not present, nor do we intend them to present, a complete picture of our financial condition and operating performance. In addition, other REITs may define FFO and an adjusted FFO metric differently and choose to treat impairment charges, acquisition-related expenses and potentially other accounting line items in a manner different from us due to specific differences in investment strategy or for other reasons; therefore, comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. Our Company-Defined FFO calculation is limited by its exclusion of certain items previously discussed, but we continuously evaluate our investment portfolio and the usefulness of our Company-Defined FFO measure in relation thereto. We believe that net income (loss) computed under GAAP remains the primary measure of performance and that FFO or Company-Defined FFO are only meaningful when they are used in conjunction with net income (loss) computed under GAAP. Further, we believe that our consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, provide the most meaningful picture of our financial condition and operating performance.

Net Operating Income (“NOI”)

We also use NOI as a supplemental financial performance measure because NOI reflects the specific operating performance of our real properties and debt related investments and excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of each property, such as gains on the disposition of securities, other-than-temporary impairment, gains and losses related to provisions for losses on debt related investments, gains or losses on derivatives, acquisition related expenses, losses on financing commitments, interest income, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, asset management fees, interest expense and noncontrolling interests. However, NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance as a whole, since it does exclude such items that could materially impact our results of operations. Further, our NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies, as they may use different methodologies for calculating NOI. Therefore, we believe net income, as defined by GAAP, to be the most appropriate measure to evaluate our overall financial performance.

Public Conference Call

We will be hosting a public conference call on Wednesday, November 16, 2011, to review our quarterly financial and operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. Guy Arnold, our President, and Kirk Scott, our Chief Financial Officer, will present performance data and provide management commentary. The conference call will take place at 4:15 p.m. EST and can be accessed by dialing 800.926.5188 (no access code is required).

Our Operating Results

Three Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2010

The following unaudited table illustrates the changes in rental revenues, rental expenses and net operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010. Our same store portfolio includes all operating properties that we owned for the entirety of both the current and prior year reporting periods. The same store portfolio includes 74 properties acquired prior to January 1, 2010 and owned through September 30, 2011, comprising approximately 12.9 million square feet. A discussion of these changes follows the table (dollar amounts in thousands).

(1) Base rental revenue represents contractual base rental revenue earned by us from our tenants and does not include the impact of certain GAAP adjustments to rental revenue, such as straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of above-market intangible lease assets or the amortization of below-market lease intangible liabilities. Such GAAP adjustments and other rental revenue such as expense recovery revenue are included in the line item, referred to as “other rental revenue.”

See also Note 13 to our financial statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Rental Revenue

Rental revenue increased slightly for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, primarily due to additional revenue from the properties acquired in 2010 and 2011. Our operating portfolio was approximately 94.6% leased as of September 30, 2011.

Same store base rental revenues decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease was primarily due to a decline in our base rental revenue per square foot within the same store portfolio, due to a decrease in leased square footage of our same store office properties, which have relatively higher base rental rates per square foot than our other property types, partially offset by an increase in the leased square footage of our same store retail and same store industrial properties, which have relatively lower base rental rates per square foot. As of September 30, 2011 our same store portfolio was approximately 91.9% leased, compared to approximately 91.6% as of September 30, 2010.

Same store other rental revenue increased for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. This increase was attributable to an increase in below market rent adjustments, including an acceleration in the amortization of the adjustments, which was the result of the termination of certain of our leases deemed to be “below market” during 2011.

Debt Related Income

Debt related income decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. The decrease was primarily attributable to the repayment of approximately $101.5 million debt related investments subsequent to December 31, 2010.

Rental Expenses

Rental expenses decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. The decrease in expenses is primarily attributable to decreases within the same store portfolio.

Same store rental expenses decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in real estate property taxes in the current period.

Other Operating Expenses

Depreciation and Amortization Expense: Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by approximately $1.3 million, or 4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease is primarily attributable to write-offs of intangible lease assets related to tenants in default, and certain intangible assets acquired being fully amortized.

General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $44,000, or 2%, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010.

Asset Management Fees, Related Party: Asset management fees paid to our Advisor decreased by approximately $275,000, or 5%, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease resulted from our disposition of real property and the payoff or impairment of certain of our debt related investments subsequent to June 30, 2010.

Acquisition-related expenses net of other gains (losses): Acquisition-related expenses net of other gains (losses) increased by approximately $125,000, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, from $0 for the same period in 2010. This increase resulted from our write-off of previously recognized contingent consideration that we determined we would not receive.

Provision for (recovery of) Loss on Debt Related Investments: During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded a provision for loan loss of approximately $3.1 million related to one of our B-note debt related investments related to an office property in the Dallas, Texas market. We did not record any provision for loan loss during the three months ended September 30, 2010; however, we partially reversed a previously recorded provision for loan loss on a mezzanine debt investment related to an office building in the Washington D.C. market. The reversal represented the net proceeds realized on the subsequent sale of the property of approximately $13.7 million.

Other Income (Expenses)

Interest and Other Income: Interest and other income did not fluctuate for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010.

Interest Expense: Interest expense decreased by approximately $1.2 million, or 5%, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease resulted primarily from repayments of certain of our other secured borrowings. Interest on financing obligations decreased due to the conversion of certain tenancy-in-common interests to OP Units. The following table further describes our interest expense by debt obligation, including amortization of loan cost, amortization related to our derivatives, and amortization of discounts and premiums, for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 (amounts in thousands).

Gain on Disposition of Securities: During the three months ended September 30, 2010, we continued a disposition strategy with regards to our preferred equity securities portfolio. We disposed of the remainder of our preferred equity securities for net proceeds of approximately $14.5 million. These disposed securities had an accounting cost basis of approximately $6.9 million, resulting in a gain of approximately $7.6 million.

Loss on Financing Commitments: During the three months ended September 30, 2010, we recorded a loss on financing commitment of approximately $3.9 million related to a borrowing commitment that we terminated resulting in a related termination fee. We did not record any loss on financing commitments during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

(1) Base rental revenue represents contractual base rental revenue earned by us from our tenants and does not include the impact of certain GAAP adjustments to rental revenue, such as straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of above-market intangible lease assets or the amortization of below-market lease intangible liabilities. Such GAAP adjustments and other rental revenue such as expense recovery revenue are included in the line item, referred to as “other rental revenue.”
(2) Includes equity-in-earnings from an unconsolidated joint venture of approximately $941,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
(3) For a discussion as to why we view net operating income to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure, refer to “—How We Measure Our Performance—Net Operating Income” above. See also Note 13 to our financial statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Rental Revenue

The increase in rental revenue is primarily attributable to our acquisition and continued ownership of 26 additional operating real properties subsequent to December 31, 2009. Our operating portfolio was approximately 94.6% leased as of September 30, 2011.

Same store base rental revenues decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease was primarily due to a decline in our base rental revenue per square foot within the same store portfolio, due to a decrease in leased square footage of our same store office properties, which have relatively higher base rental rates per square foot than our other property types, partially offset by an increase in the leased square footage of our same store retail and same store industrial properties, which have relatively lower base rental rates per square foot. As of September 30, 2011 our same store portfolio was approximately 91.9% leased, compared to approximately 91.6% as of September 30, 2010.

Same store other rental revenue decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease was attributable to lower tenant recovery income, partially offset by early termination fees received during the current year period.

Debt Related Income

Debt related income decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. The decrease was primarily attributable to (i) the repayment of a debt related investment, structured as a redeemable preferred equity security and recorded as an investment in an unconsolidated joint venture of approximately $17.4 million, (ii) our foreclosure on and subsequent sale of a property that we had previously held as a debt related investment of approximately $17.3 million, and (iii) the repayment of approximately $101.5 million in debt related investments subsequent to December 31, 2009, offset by our incremental investment of $90.2 million in debt related investments subsequent to December 31, 2009.

Rental Expenses

Rental expenses increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This increase is primarily attributable to our acquisition and continued ownership of 26 additional operating real properties subsequent to December 31, 2009.

Same store rental expenses decreased slightly for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in real estate tax expense and bad debt expense, partially offset by an increase in repairs and maintenance and non-recoverable leasing costs.

Other Operating Expenses

Depreciation and Amortization Expense: Depreciation and amortization expense increased by approximately $32.1 million, or 50%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This increase is primarily attributable to our acquisition and continued ownership of 26 additional operating real properties subsequent to December 31, 2009.

General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $659,000, or 13%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This increase is primarily attributable to increases in accounting and legal fees and other general overhead expenses, primarily related to the growth of the portfolio.

Asset Management Fees, Related Party: Asset management fees paid to our Advisor increased by approximately $2.4 million, or 18%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This increase resulted from our investment activity subsequent to December 31, 2009, including our acquisition of the NOIP Portfolio, offset by the disposition of our preferred equity securities portfolio and the repayment of certain of our debt related investments.

Acquisition Related Expenses: Acquisition related expenses, including fees paid to our Advisor, decreased by approximately $18.5 million, or 97%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, primarily due to acquisition fees associated with the acquisition of the NOIP Portfolio on June 25, 2010.

Other-than-Temporary Impairment on Securities and Gain on Disposition of Securities: During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, we recorded net other-than-temporary impairment charges of approximately $3.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, related to our CMBS and CRE-CDO securities.

Provision for Loss on Debt Related Investments: During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, we recognized provisions for loan loss of approximately $5.6 million and $3.0 million, respectively, which during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, were partially offset by the partial reversal of a previously recorded provision for loan loss on a mezzanine debt investment related to an office building in the Washington D.C. market. The reversal represented the net proceeds realized on the subsequent sale of the property of approximately $13.7 million.

Other Income (Expenses)

Interest and Other Income: Interest and other income decreased by approximately $1.7 million, or 59%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease is primarily attributable to the sale of a portion of our preferred equity securities portfolio, the continued deterioration in the performance of our CMBS and CRE-CDO securities portfolio, our significantly reduced average cash balance during the year due to the acquisition of the NOIP Portfolio, and lower average yields on our floating-rate interest-bearing bank accounts and money market mutual fund investments.

Interest Expense: Interest expense increased by approximately $14.6 million, or 27%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. This increase resulted primarily from additional mortgage note and other financings we assumed or incurred subsequent to December 31, 2009, partially offset by the effects of repayments of certain of these obligations. Interest on financing obligations decreased due to the conversion of certain TIC interests to OP Units. Our total borrowings, including financing obligations, increased by 66% to approximately $1.6 billion as of September 30, 2011 from approximately $950.1 million as of December 31, 2009, principally due to financing incurred in connection with our investment activities. The following table further describes our interest expense by debt obligation, including amortization of loan cost, amortization related to our derivatives, and amortization of discounts and premiums, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 (amounts in thousands).

Gain on Disposition of Securities: During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized a gain on the sale of a portion of our preferred equity securities portfolio, of approximately $39.9 million. We did not recognize any gain on the sale of securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Loss on Financing Commitments: During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recorded a loss on financing commitment of approximately $3.9 million related to a borrowing commitment that we terminated resulting in a related termination fee. We did not record any loss on financing commitments during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity Outlook

We believe our existing cash balance, cash from operations, additional proceeds from the DRIP Plan, proceeds from the sale of existing investments, availability under our Credit Facility, and prospective debt or equity issuances will be sufficient to meet our liquidity and capital needs for the foreseeable future, including the next 12 months. Our capital requirements over the next 12 months are anticipated to include, but are not limited to, operating expenses, distribution payments, debt service payments, including debt maturities with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of approximately $378.8 million before September 30, 2012, redemption payments, including redemption payments related to an offer we made to repurchase up to 10 million of our own shares at a price of $6 per share, acquisitions of real property and debt related investments. Of the debt maturities in the next 12 months, $311.0 million have extension options beyond December 31, 2012. We currently believe that we will qualify for and expect to exercise our extension options. However, we cannot guarantee that we will meet the requirements to extend the notes upon initial maturity. In the event that we do not qualify to extend the notes, we expect to repay them with proceeds from new borrowings. The following discussion summarizes the sources and uses of our cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $71.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $23.7 million for the same period in 2010. This increase is primarily due acquisition costs paid related to the acquisition of the NOIP Portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and increased income due to additional real property and debt investments made subsequent to December 31, 2009.

Lease Expirations

Our primary source of funding for our property-level operating expenses and debt service payments is rent collected pursuant to our tenant leases. Our properties are generally leased to tenants for terms ranging from three to ten years. As of September 30, 2011, the weighted average remaining term of our leases was approximately 8.1 years, based on contractual remaining base rent, and 5.2 years, based on square footage. The following is a schedule of expiring leases for our consolidated operating properties by annualized base rent and square footage as of September 30, 2011 and assuming no exercise of lease renewal options (dollar amounts and square footage in thousands).

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $8.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to approximately $1.3 billion for the same period in 2010. This decrease was primarily attributable to our acquisition of the NOIP Portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Our acquisition activity during the same period in 2011 was significantly less.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was approximately $95.7 million and primarily comprised the redemption of common shares, distributions to common stockholders and noncontrolling interest holders, and scheduled repayment of our mortgage notes, partially offset by proceeds from the other secured borrowings. Net cash provided by financing activities during the same period in 2010 was approximately $815.3 million primarily comprising proceeds received from mortgage borrowings and other secured borrowings, including mortgage note borrowings issued in connection with our acquisition of the NOIP Portfolio, partially offset by amounts related to distributions to common stockholders and the redemption of common shares.

Line of Credit

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), as administrative agent for itself and other lenders that are parties to the Credit Facility, and KeyBank National Association as syndication agent. Under the Credit Facility, the Company may borrow up to $100 million (the “Facility Amount”), and, subject to sufficient lender participation, the Company also has the right during the first two years of the Credit Facility term to increase the Facility Amount by an aggregate of $100 million to a total Facility Amount of $200 million. The proceeds of the Credit Facility will be used by the Company for general purposes, including but not limited to debt refinancing, property acquisitions, new construction, renovations, expansions, tenant improvement costs and equity investments primarily associated with commercial real estate properties.

(1) Represents amounts due for the remainder of 2011.
(2) Borrowings presented include other secured borrowings of approximately $58.0 million related to our master repurchase facility account, which matures in June 2013 and is subject to two one-year extensions and mezzanine borrowings of approximately $26.6 million, which mature in June, 2015.
(3) Six of our mortgage notes with an aggregate outstanding principal balance as of September 30, 2011 of approximately $399.7 million have initial maturities before January 1, 2014. Four of these notes with an aggregate outstanding principal balance as of September 30, 2011 of approximately $331.9 million have extension options beyond December 31, 2013. These extension options are subject to certain lender covenants and restrictions that we must meet to extend the respective maturity dates. We currently believe that we will qualify for and expect to exercise our extension options. However, we cannot guarantee that we will meet the requirements to extend the notes upon initial maturity. In the event that we do not qualify to extend the notes, we expect to repay them with proceeds from new borrowings.
(4) Outstanding balance represents expected cash outflows for contractual amortization and scheduled balloon payment maturities, and does not include our mark-to-market adjustment on assumed debt of approximately $4.3 million as of September 30, 2011.
(5) As of September 30, 2011, our mortgage notes and secured borrowings are secured by real properties and debt investments totaling approximately $2.9 billion.

Distributions

To obtain the favorable tax treatment accorded to REITs, we normally will be required each year to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our real estate investment trust taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for distributions paid and by excluding net capital gains. The payment of distributions is determined by our board of directors and may be adjusted at its discretion at any time. Distribution levels are set by our board of directors at a level it believes to be appropriate and sustainable based upon a review of a variety of factors including, but not limited to, REIT requirements, the evaluation of existing assets within our portfolio, anticipated acquisitions, projected levels of additional capital to be raised, debt to be incurred in the future and the anticipated results of operations.

The following table sets forth relationships between the amount of distributions declared for such period and the amount reported as cash flow from operations in accordance with GAAP for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

(1) Distributions paid in cash include distributions declared for common stock and OP Units for the respective period, and all distributions made during the period to our joint venture partners that are noncontrolling interest holders.
(2) Commencing on January 1, 2009, expenses associated with the acquisition of real property, including acquisition fees paid to our Advisor and gains or losses related to the change in fair value of contingent consideration related to the acquisition of real property, are recorded to earnings and as a deduction to our cash from operations. We incurred acquisition-related expenses, net of other gains, of approximately $125,000 and $608,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we incurred approximately $19.1 million in acquisition-related expenses.
(3) For purposes of this table, we presented the amounts funded from borrowings by subtracting the amount reported for cash flow from operations in accordance with GAAP from the total amount of distributions declared for such period.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we reported approximately $21.5 million and $71.5 million, respectively, of cash provided by our operating activities. During the same periods in 2010, we reported approximately $9.2 million and $23.7 million, respectively, of cash provided by our operating activities. In accordance with ASC Topic 805 “Business Combinations” (“ASC Topic 805”), which became effective for the year ended December 31, 2009, these amounts were reduced for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011 by approximately $125,000 and $608,000, respectively, of acquisition related expenses, which were funded from the net proceeds received from our public offerings. During the same periods in 2010, these amounts were reduced by approximately $0 and $19.1 million, respectively, of acquisition related expenses, which were funded from the net proceeds received from our public offerings. As a result, the distributions declared payable to common stockholders, OP Unit holders, and joint venture partners for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, as described above, were funded with approximately $21.6 million and $72.1 million, respectively (excluding the impact of ASC Topic 805 as described above), from our operating activities, and the remaining amounts of approximately $8.5 million and $18.3 million, respectively, were funded from our borrowings. During the same periods in 2010, the distributions declared payable to common stockholders, OP Unit holders, and joint venture partners for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, as described above, were funded with approximately $9.2 million and $42.8 million, respectively (excluding the impact of ASC Topic 805 as described above), from our operating activities, and the remaining amounts of approximately $20.5 million and $45.6 million, respectively, were funded from our borrowings. Our long-term strategy is to fund the payment of quarterly distributions to investors entirely from our operations. There can be no assurance that we will achieve this strategy.

Redemptions

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, we redeemed approximately 4.0 million and 4.1 million shares of common stock, respectively, pursuant to our share redemption program, for approximately $34.6 million and $39.4 million, respectively. In addition to the above-mentioned redemptions, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we redeemed approximately 78,000 OP Units from our OP Unit holders for approximately $685,000 in cash and approximately 119,000 OP Units from our OP Unit holders for approximately 118,000 shares of our common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we redeemed approximately 10,000 OP Units from our OP Unit holders for approximately $94,000. See “Part II, Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information regarding redemptions of shares during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of assets and liabilities that results from a change in the applicable market resulting from a variety of factors such as perceived risk, interest rate changes, inflation and overall general economic changes. Accordingly, we manage our market risk by matching projected cash inflows from operating, investing and financing activities with projected cash outflows for debt service, acquisitions, capital expenditures, distributions to stockholders and unit holders, and other cash requirements. Our investments in real estate securities and debt related investments are our financial instruments that are most significantly and directly impacted by changes in their respective market conditions. In addition, our outstanding borrowings are also directly impacted by changes in market conditions. This impact is largely mitigated by the fact that the majority of our outstanding borrowings have fixed interest rates, which minimize our exposure to the risk that fluctuating interest rates may pose to our operating results and liquidity.

As of September 30, 2011, we had approximately $436.4 million of variable rate borrowings outstanding indexed to LIBOR rates. If the LIBOR rates relevant to our remaining variable rate borrowings were to increase 10%, we estimate that our quarterly interest expense would increase by approximately $8,000 based on our outstanding floating-rate debt as of September 30, 2011.

We may seek to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs by selectively utilizing derivative instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates on loans secured by our assets. We maintain risk management control systems to monitor interest rate cash flow risk attributable to both our outstanding and forecasted debt obligations as well as our potential offsetting hedge positions. While this hedging strategy is designed to minimize the impact on our net income (loss) and funds from operations from changes in interest rates, the overall returns on our investments may be reduced. Our board of directors has established policies and procedures regarding our use of derivative instruments for hedging or other purposes.

In addition to the above described risks, we are subject to additional credit risk. Credit risk refers to the ability of each individual borrower under our debt related investments or issuer of our real estate securities to make required interest and principal payments on the scheduled due dates. We seek to reduce credit risk by actively monitoring our debt related investments portfolio and the underlying credit quality of our holdings. In the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and/or economic downturn, loan and collateral defaults may continue to increase and result in further credit losses that would continue to, or more severely, adversely affect our liquidity and operating results.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon, the evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On September 7, 2011, the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, entered a final order of dismissal (the “Order”) of the civil action titled Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation v. iStar NG, LP et al. (No. CL 2010 10025) (the “Lawsuit”), after a settlement was reached among us, iStar NG, LP, TRT Acquisitions, LLC and TRT NOIP Colshire—McLean LLC (collectively with the Company, the “Dividend Capital Defendants”), iStar Financial Inc. (“iStar Financial” and, together with the Dividend Capital Defendants, the “Defendants”), and Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (“Plaintiff”). The Order dismissed all claims, affirmative defenses and counterclaims with prejudice and provided that, as between Plaintiff and Defendants, each will bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs. As previously disclosed in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Dividend Capital Defendants have obtained indemnities from iStar Financial and insurance coverage for the Lawsuit, which are subject to certain terms, conditions, and limitations. The settlement of the Lawsuit did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the risk factors discussed in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on March 25, 2011, the Company is also subject to the following risks:

The current offering price of shares under our Dividend Reinvestment Plan may exceed the price at which we may offer shares under our Dividend Reinvestment Plan in the near future.

We have offered and will continue to offer shares of common stock through the Distribution Reinvestment Plan (the “DRIP Plan”). The price currently paid for shares issued under our DRIP Plan is $8.45 which is equal to the estimated value per share (the “ESV”) of our common stock established in March of 2011. We have not undertaken to update the ESV and it represents an estimate of the value of our common stock as of the date it was announced but may no longer be an accurate estimate of such value. We recently filed a registration statement to offer equity securities outside of the DRIP Plan, perhaps as early as the first quarter of 2012. Such offering is subject to regulatory and other conditions and may not occur. However, if this offering does occur, we contemplate selling two new classes of common stock at prices based on their daily net asset values (“NAV”), which will be calculated by the Advisor on a daily basis pursuant to valuation procedures adopted by our board of directors, and with the assistance of an independent valuation firm. In connection with this offering, we would also amend the DRIP Plan to sell our shares under the plan at their daily NAV. If we were to amend the DRIP Plan in the near future to sell our shares under the plan at their daily NAV, the NAV per share that is used upon the commencement of an amended DRIP Plan may be less than $8.45 per share.

We have entered into loan agreements that contain restrictive covenants relating to our operations, which could limit our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.

When providing financing, a lender typically imposes restrictions on us that may affect our distribution and operating policies and our ability to incur additional debt. Our loan agreements include restrictions, covenants, customary market carve-outs and/or guarantees by us. Certain financial covenants include tests of our general liquidity and debt servicing capability as well as certain collateral specific performance and valuation ratios. Specifically, we are required by certain of our borrowing arrangements to maintain the following financial covenants: (i) an interest coverage ratio of 1.75 to 1.00 or higher, (ii) a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.60 to 1.00 or higher, (iii) a leverage ratio not to exceed 65%, (iv) a minimum liquidity of $10.0 million, (v) a minimum tangible net worth of $750.0 million, and (vi) a debt yield ratio requiring 11% or higher yield on total indebtedness. In addition, our loan agreements may contain covenants that limit our ability to further mortgage the property, discontinue insurance coverage, or replace the Advisor as our advisor. Further, our loan agreements may limit our ability to replace the property manager or terminate certain operating or lease agreements related to the property. These or other limitations may adversely affect our flexibility and our ability to achieve our investment objectives and make distributions to our stockholders. There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with these covenants in the future, or that if we violate a covenant the lender would be willing to provide a waiver of such covenant. Violation of these covenants could result in the acceleration of maturities under the default provisions of our loan agreements. As of September 30, 2011, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

We are the general partner of our Operating Partnership. As of September 30, 2011, we owned approximately 93.1% of our Operating Partnership, and the remaining interests in our OP Units were owned by certain third-party investors (“Limited Partners”). Pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Operating Partnership, Limited Partners may request the Operating Partnership to redeem their OP Units, and we, as the general partner of the Operating Partnership, may elect to redeem any OP Units for cash or for shares of our common stock. The number of shares issuable by us in redemption of OP Units is typically equal to the number of OP Units redeemed, less an amount of shares to cover a redemption fee.

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we issued an aggregate of 20,000 shares of our common stock to a Limited Partner in redemption of its OP Units. Since these OP Units were not issued in connection with our TIC program, there was no redemption fee. The issuances were made under the exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The following table describes these transactions in more detail:

Share Redemption Program

As of September 30, 2011, no material changes had occurred to our share redemption program (the “Program”) as discussed in Item 2 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on March 25, 2011. In aggregate, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, we redeemed approximately 1.5 million shares of common stock pursuant to the Program for approximately $12.7 million, as described further in the table below.
