INLAND REAL ESTATE CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2015 (unaudited)

 The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the audited financial statements of Inland Real Estate Corporation (the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2014, which are included in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report, as certain footnote disclosures contained in such audited financial statements have been omitted from this Report on Form 10-Q.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included in this Quarterly Report.
 
(1)    Organization and Basis of Accounting

Inland Real Estate Corporation (the “Company”), a Maryland corporation, was formed on May 12, 1994.  The Company is a publicly held real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns, operates and develops (directly or through its unconsolidated entities) open-air neighborhood, community and power shopping centers and single tenant retail properties located throughout the Central and Southeastern United States. Through wholly-owned subsidiaries, Inland Commercial Property Management, Inc. (“ICPM”) and Inland TRS Property Management, Inc., the Company manages all properties it owns interests in and properties for certain third parties and related parties.
 
All amounts in these footnotes to the consolidated financial statements are stated in thousands with the exception of per share amounts, square foot amounts, and number of properties.
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Recent Accounting Principles

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. Early application is permitted, but not before the original effective date for public business entities (i.e. January 1, 2017). The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. The ASU requires a reporting entity to treat a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period as a performance condition. This ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted and may be adopted either prospectively for share-based payment awards granted or modified on or after the effective date, or retrospectively, using a modified retrospective approach. The Company does not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidated (Topic 810) Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The ASU changes the way reporting entities evaluate whether (a) they should consolidate limited partnerships and similar entities, (b) fees paid to a decision maker or service provider are variable interests in a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and (c) variable interests in a VIE held by related parties of the reporting entity require the reporting entity to consolidate the VIE. It also eliminates the VIE consolidation model based on a majority exposure to variability that applied to certain investment companies and similar entities. This ASU is effective for public entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including early adoption in an interim period. The Company is evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest. The ASU requires that debt issuance costs be deducted from the carrying value of the financial liability and not recorded as separate assets, classified as deferred financing

costs. The ASU is effective for public entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued and will be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

INLAND REAL ESTATE CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2015 (unaudited)


During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company completed a land condemnation at one investment property. In conjunction with this condemnation, the Company recorded a gain of approximately $78.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded $9,355 as provision for asset impairment on its accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The asset impairments were required because the Company has negotiated sales prices on five investment properties that were below their respective carrying values, which included Eastgate Center noted in the table above, of which $2,370 of impairment was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

(4)    Mortgages Receivable

On December 30, 2014, the Company entered into a promissory note and first mortgage and security agreement with a related joint venture partner (see Note 13, “Transactions with Related Parties”) for a principal sum of $24,750. The property commonly known as Clybourn Galleria, located in Chicago, Illinois is the collateral for this note. The note accrues interest at a rate of 5% per annum with final payment of the principal, all accrued and unpaid interest and the loan fee due on November 30, 2015. Total interest income earned during the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $619.

(5)    Joint Ventures
 
Consolidated Joint Ventures

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries and consolidated joint ventures.  The Company consolidates the operations of a joint venture if it determines that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the joint venture, which management has determined to be a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810. The primary beneficiary is the party that has a controlling financial interest in the VIE, which is defined as the entity having both of the following characteristics: 1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance, and 2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE.  There are significant judgments and estimates involved in determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE or the determination of who has control and influence of the entity. When the Company consolidates a VIE, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the VIE are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and all inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated.
 
The consolidated results of the Company include the accounts of IRC-IREX Venture II, LLC, while the properties are consolidated, IRC-MAB Southeast, LLC, Tanglewood Parkway Elizabeth City, LLC, and IRC-NARE 1300 Meacham Road, LLC, all of which are VIE’s for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.  The Company has determined that the third-party interests in these entities are noncontrolling interests to be included in permanent equity, separate from the Company’s shareholders’ equity, in the consolidated balance sheets and statements of equity. Net income or loss related to these noncontrolling interests is included in net income or loss in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Joint Venture with IPCC (IRC-IREX Venture II, LLC)

In January 2013, Inland Exchange Venture LLC (“IEV LLC”), formerly known as Inland Exchange Venture Corporation, a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) of the Company, extended its joint venture with Inland Private Capital Corporation (“IPCC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Inland Group, Inc. (“TIGI”), through June 30, 2015 to continue the joint venture relationship that began in 2006 and to change the fee structure. The joint venture partners are currently in negotiations to extend the joint venture agreement. The joint venture provides replacement properties for investors wishing to complete a tax-deferred exchange through private placement offerings, using properties made available to the joint venture by IEV LLC.  These offerings are structured to sell Delaware Statutory Trust (“DST”) interests in the identified property.  IEV LLC performs the joint venture’s acquisition function and ICPM performs the asset management, property management and leasing functions. Both entities earn fees for providing these services to the joint venture. The Company will continue to earn asset management, property management and leasing fees on all properties acquired for this venture, including after all ownership interests have been sold to the investors.

INLAND REAL ESTATE CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2015 (unaudited)

The joint venture was determined to be a VIE under ASC Topic 810 and is consolidated by the Company.  Prior to the sale of any DST interests, the joint venture owns 100% of the DST interests in the property and controls the major decisions that affect the underlying property; and therefore upon initial acquisition, the joint venture consolidates the property.  At the time of first sale of a DST interest, the joint venture no longer controls the underlying property as the activities and decisions that most significantly impact the property’s economic performance are now subject to joint control among the co-owners or lender; and therefore, at such time, the property is deconsolidated and accounted for under the equity method (unconsolidated).  Once the operations are deconsolidated, the income is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures until all DST interests have been sold.  The table below reflects those properties that were deconsolidated during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and therefore no longer represent the consolidated assets and liabilities of the VIE. No properties became deconsolidated during the six months ended June 30, 2015.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the joint venture with IPCC acquired one and six investment properties, respectively.  In conjunction with the sales of DST interests, the Company recorded gains of approximately $80 and $189 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, as compared to $6 and $114 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. These gains are included in gain on sale of joint venture interests on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Joint Venture with MAB (IRC-MAB Southeast, LLC)

In November 2013, the Company entered into a joint venture to develop grocery-anchored shopping centers in select markets throughout the southeastern U.S. with MAB, an affiliate of Melbourne, Australia-based MAB Corporation. The five-year development program is expected to target metropolitan areas in the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, Virginia and Washington D.C. MAB Corporation is a privately owned property development company and fund manager that has completed retail, office, multi-family and industrial projects at locations in Australia, New Zealand and the U.S. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the Company has exclusive rights to all grocery-anchored, build-to-suit opportunities in the southeastern U.S. sourced by MAB. Upon site approval by the Company, the Company will provide 90% of the equity required to fund approved project costs, while MAB will be responsible for the remaining 10% of the equity, plus venture management, sourcing and acquisition of sites, project financing and all property and development duties. The joint venture agreement also provides that the Company is required to purchase each grocery-anchored center at a discount to fair market value after stabilization and after certain criteria are met. As a result, the Company determined it is the primary beneficiary of this VIE. A typical project likely will consist of a 50,000-square-foot grocery store with approximately 20,000 square feet of additional retail space. As of June 30, 2015, there were no acquisitions through this joint venture, however, the joint venture has three sites under contract, with closings anticipated during the second half of 2015.

Joint Venture with Thompson Thrift Development, Inc. (Tanglewood Parkway Elizabeth City, LLC)

In September 2014, the Company entered into a joint venture to develop Tanglewood Pavilions, a 158,000 square foot power center that will be located in Elizabeth City, North Carolina with Thompson Thrift Development, Inc. (“TTDI”). The joint venture acquired the vacant land for $850. Construction has started and the joint venture anticipates delivery to tenants to begin in the latter half of 2015. The Company will provide 90% of the equity required to fund approved project costs, while TTDI will be responsible for the remaining 10% of the equity, plus venture management and development duties. The joint venture agreement also provides that the Company is required to purchase the power center at a discount to fair market value after stabilization and after certain criteria are met. As a result, the Company determined it is the primary beneficiary of this VIE.

Joint Venture with NARE (IRC-NARE 1300 Meacham Road, LLC)

In February 2015, the Company entered into a joint venture to develop 1300 Meacham Road, located in Schaumburg, Illinois with North American Real Estate (“NARE”). The joint venture acquired the property on February 12, 2015 for $4,500, using cash contributed by each partner. The property is a four-acre parcel of land with a 60,000 square foot office building, which will be demolished. The development is anticipated to consist of three pad sites, which will be ground lease or build-to-suit

opportunities for single and potentially multi-tenant use. Demolition and construction are expected to begin in the latter half of 2015. The Company has a 95% equity interest in the joint venture and NARE has a 5% interest. The joint venture agreement also provides that the Company is required to purchase the property at a discount to fair market value after stabilization and after certain criteria are met. As a result, the Company determined it is the primary beneficiary of this VIE.

Includes the mortgage payable for Evergreen Promenade and Pulaski Promenade. Amounts are not included in Joint Venture Financial Information because INP Retail LP accounts for its Evergreen Promenade and Pulaski Promenade joint venture under the equity method of accounting.

INP Retail LP has guaranteed approximately $8,586 of the loans encumbering Evergreen Promenade and Pulaski Promenade. The guarantees are in effect for the entire term of the loans as set forth in the loan documents. INP Retail LP is required to pay on a guarantee upon the default of any of the provisions in the loan documents, unless the default is otherwise waived. The Company’s pro rata share of the outstanding guarantee is approximately $4,722. The Company is required to estimate the fair value of the guarantees and, if material, record a corresponding liability. The Company has determined that performance under the guarantee is not probable and the fair value of the guarantee is immaterial as of June 30, 2015 and accordingly has not recorded a liability related to the guarantees on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The Company earns fees for providing asset management, property management, leasing and acquisition services to its joint ventures.  The Company recognizes fee income equal to the Company’s joint venture partner’s share of the expense or commission, which is reflected as fee income from unconsolidated joint ventures in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.  Fee income earned for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are reflected in the following table.

The fee income from the joint venture with PGGM has increased due to the increase in assets under management. The fee income from the joint venture with IPCC increases as assets under management increase, however, total fee income may also vary based on the timing of acquisition fees earned based on the number of properties sold, the original acquisition prices of the properties and the timing of sales in each period.

The Company’s proportionate share of the earnings or losses related to its unconsolidated joint ventures is reflected as equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded $516 and $1,032, respectively, of amortization of basis difference between the Company’s investment in the joint ventures and the amount of the underlying equity in net assets of the joint ventures and recorded $517 and $1,033 during the three and six ended June 30, 2014. The amortization of this basis difference is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Differences in basis result from the recording of the Company’s equity investment recorded at its historical basis versus the fair value of certain of the Company’s contributions to the joint venture.  Such differences are amortized over the respective depreciable lives of the joint venture property assets. 
 
Joint Venture with PGGM

The Company formed a joint venture with PGGM, a leading Dutch pension fund administrator and asset manager in 2010 and completed an amendment to the partnership agreement in 2012 to increase the maximum equity contributions of each partner.  In conjunction with the formation, the joint venture established two separate REIT entities to hold title to the properties included in the joint venture.  The joint venture may acquire up to a total of $900,000 of grocery-anchored and community retail centers located in Midwestern U.S. markets. The Company’s maximum total equity contribution is approximately $281,000 and PGGM’s maximum total equity contribution is approximately $230,000. The joint venture agreement provides that the Company can purchase 20% of PGGM’s interest in the joint venture annually, over a five-year period, beginning in 2016. The Company intends to exercise this option and at the end of the five-year period, it is anticipated the Company would consolidate all assets currently held through the joint venture.

As of June 30, 2015, the joint venture has acquired a total of approximately $854,000 of retail assets, including those properties contributed by the Company. As of June 30, 2015, PGGM’s remaining maximum potential equity contribution was approximately $13,618 and the Company’s was approximately $16,644.
 
PGGM owns a forty-five percent equity ownership interest and the Company owns a fifty-five percent equity ownership interest in the venture.  The Company is the managing partner of the venture and is responsible for the day-to-day activities of the venture.  The Company determined that this joint venture is not a VIE.  Both partners have the ability to participate in major

11

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2015 (unaudited)

decisions, as detailed in the joint venture agreement, and therefore, neither partner is deemed to have control of the joint venture.  Therefore, this joint venture is accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

In June 2013, the joint venture with PGGM entered into a limited liability company agreement with Pine Tree and IBT Group, LLC (“IBT”). This agreement forms a joint venture between the three parties to acquire, develop, operate and manage the property known as Evergreen Promenade, located in Evergreen Park, Illinois. The venture acquired the vacant land parcel for $5,500 and completed construction of the approximately 92,500 square foot shopping center as of December 31, 2014. Evergreen Promenade is 96% leased to national retailers, Mariano’s, which opened during the first quarter of 2015, and PetSmart which opened during the fourth quarter of 2014. Management determined that this joint venture is not a VIE. All parties have the ability to participate in major decisions, as detailed in the agreement, and therefore, no partner is deemed to have control of the venture. Therefore, the joint venture with PGGM accounts for this joint venture using the equity method of accounting.

In September 2014, the joint venture with PGGM entered into a second limited liability company agreement with Pine Tree and IBT. This agreement forms a joint venture between the same parties to acquire, develop, operate and manage the property known as Pulaski Promenade, located in Chicago, Illinois. The venture acquired the vacant land parcel for $5,734 and intends to construct approximately 133,000 square feet of gross leasable area, of which approximately 80% has been pre-leased to national retailers. Management determined that this joint venture is not a VIE. All parties have the ability to participate in major decisions, as detailed in the agreement, and therefore, no partner is deemed to have control of the joint venture. Therefore, the joint venture with PGGM accounts for this joint venture using the equity method of accounting.

Development Joint Venture

The Company currently has one unconsolidated development joint venture, which was formed for the development or sale of the property commonly known as Savannah Crossing. This property consists of approximately five acres of vacant land, which the joint venture is holding for future sale or potential development.

Approximately $97,995 of the Company’s mortgages payable mature in the next twelve months.  Included in the debt maturing in 2015 is outstanding principal of approximately $90,247 secured by the Company’s Algonquin Commons property. The loans encumbering Algonquin Commons have matured and the property is currently subject to foreclosure litigation and the Company cannot currently predict the outcome of the litigation. The Company intends to repay the other maturing debt upon maturity using available cash and/or borrowings under its unsecured line of credit facility.
(b)
The total debt above reflects the total principal amount outstanding.  The consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2015 reflect the value of the debt including the remaining unamortized mortgages premium/discount of $1,788.
(c)
Included in the debt maturing during 2018 is the Company’s unsecured line of credit facility, totaling $225,000.  The Company pays interest only during the term of this facility at a variable rate equal to a spread over LIBOR, in effect at the time of the borrowing, which fluctuates with the Company’s leverage ratio.  As of June 30, 2015, the weighted average interest rate on outstanding draws on the line of credit facility was 1.59%.  This credit facility requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.
(d)
Included in the debt maturing during 2018 is the Company’s $50,000 term loan which matures in November 2018.  The Company pays interest only during the term of this loan at a variable rate, with an interest rate floor of 3.50%.  As of June 30, 2015, the interest rate on this term loan was 3.50%.  This term loan requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.
(e)
Included in the debt maturing during 2019 is the Company’s $200,000 term loan which matures in July 2019.  The Company pays interest only during the term of this loan at a variable rate equal to a spread over LIBOR, in effect at the time of the borrowing, which fluctuates with the Company’s leverage ratio.  As of June 30, 2015, the weighted average interest rate on the term loan was 1.54%.  This term loan requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.

Mortgages Payable
 
The Company’s mortgages payable are secured by certain of its investment properties.  The face value of mortgage loans outstanding as of June 30, 2015 was $378,551 and they bore interest at a weighted average interest rate of 5.13% per annum.  Of this amount, $373,256 bore interest at fixed rates ranging from 4.00% to 6.03% per annum and a weighted average fixed rate of 5.17% per annum as of June 30, 2015.  The remaining $5,295 of mortgage debt bears interest at variable rates with a weighted average interest rate of 2.44% per annum as of June 30, 2015.  The consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2015 include the remaining unamortized mortgages premium/discount of $1,788. As of June 30, 2015, scheduled maturities for the Company’s outstanding mortgage indebtedness had various due dates through February 2023.  The majority of the Company’s mortgage loans require monthly payments of interest only, although some loans require principal and interest payments, as well as reserves for taxes, insurance and certain other costs.
 
In June 2012, a Company subsidiary ceased paying the monthly debt service on the two mortgage loans secured by both phases of Algonquin Commons. The Company subsidiary had hoped to reach an agreement with the special servicer that would revise the loan structure to make continued ownership of the property economically feasible. In January 2013, the Company subsidiary received notice that a complaint had been filed by the lender to Algonquin Commons, alleging events of default under the loan documents and seeking to foreclose on the property. In connection with the complaint, the plaintiff filed a motion for appointment of a receiver and the court granted the motion and issued an order effective February 28, 2013, appointing a receiver for the property. As a result, the receiver and its affiliated management company are now managing and operating Algonquin Commons and are now collecting all rents for the property. The Company cannot currently estimate the

impact the dispute will have on its consolidated financial statements and may not be able to do so until a final outcome has been reached. The Company subsidiary believes the payment guaranty has, however, ceased and is of no further force and effect as a result of the conditions for termination having been met when the performance metrics set forth in the payment guaranty were met. As the Company has previously disclosed, if it is required to pay the full $18,600 outstanding under the guarantee, or a foreclosure occurs, there could be a material adverse effect on its cash flows and results of operations for the period and the year in which it occurs. The Company believes these events would not have a material effect on its consolidated balance sheets because there would be a corresponding reduction in both assets and liabilities. If the Company is required to pay under the payment guarantee, it would expect to fund this payment using available cash and/or a draw on its unsecured line of credit facility.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
 
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
 
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions.  The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risk, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and, to a limited extent, the use of derivative instruments.
 
Specifically, the Company has entered into derivative instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates.  The Company’s derivative instruments, described below, are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash payments principally related to certain of the Company’s borrowings.
 
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
 
The Company’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage exposure to interest rate movements and add stability to interest expense.  To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its 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 the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
 
The Company currently has one interest rate swap outstanding that is used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with its variable-rate debt.  The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in comprehensive income (expense) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.  The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives, if any, is recognized directly in earnings.  The Company has entered into one interest rate swap contract as a requirement under a secured mortgage and the hedging relationship is considered to be highly effective as of June 30, 2015.

Amounts reported in comprehensive income (expense) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt.  The Company estimates that an additional $1,962 will be reclassified from comprehensive income (expense) as an increase to interest expense over the next twelve months.

In December 2010, the Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement with an original notional value of $60,000 and a maturity date of December 21, 2020 associated with the debt secured by first mortgages on a pool of eight investment properties. This interest rate swap fixed the floating LIBOR based debt under a variable rate loan to a fixed rate debt at an interest rate of 3.627% per annum plus the applicable margin to manage the risk exposure to interest rate fluctuations, or an effective fixed rate of 6.027% per annum.

As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivative designated as a cash flow hedge of interest rate risk:

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

Derivative financial investments expose the Company to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties under the terms of the interest rate hedge agreements.  The Company believes it minimizes the credit risk by transacting with major creditworthy financial institutions.
 
As of June 30, 2015, the fair value of derivatives in a liability position related to this agreement was $5,966. If the Company breached any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contract, it would be required to settle its obligation under the agreement at its termination value of $6,374.
 
Unsecured Credit Facilities
 
In 2014, the Company entered into amendments to its existing unsecured line of credit facility and term loan, together the “Credit Agreements.”  Under the term loan agreement, the Company borrowed, on an unsecured basis, $200,000.  The aggregate commitment of the Company’s line of credit facility is $275,000. The facility also provided for a $200,000 accordion feature, access to which is at the discretion of the current lending group.  If approved, the terms for the funds borrowed under the accordion feature would be current market terms at the time of the borrowing and not the terms of the existing line of credit facility.  The lending group is not obligated to approve access to the additional funds.
 
The line of credit facility matures on July 30, 2018 and the term loan matures on July 30, 2019. Borrowings under the Credit Agreements bear interest at a base rate applicable to any particular borrowing (e.g., LIBOR) plus a graduated spread that varies with the Company’s leverage ratio.

The Company pays interest only, on a monthly basis during the term of the Credit Agreements, with all outstanding principal and unpaid interest due upon termination of the Credit Agreements.  The Company is also required to pay, on a quarterly basis, an amount less than 1% per annum on the average daily funds remaining under this line.  As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the outstanding balance on the line of credit facility was $225,000 and $190,000, respectively. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had up to $50,000 available under its line of credit facility, not including the accordion feature.  Availability under the line of credit facility may be limited due to covenant compliance requirements in the Credit Agreements.
 
On November 15, 2011, the Company entered into an unsecured loan agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as lender pursuant to which the company received $50,000 of loan proceeds.  The loan matures on November 15, 2018.  The Company pays interest only, on a monthly basis, with all outstanding principal and unpaid interest due upon the maturity date.  The loan accrues interest at an effective rate calculated in accordance with the loan documents, provided, however, that in no event will the interest rate on the outstanding principal balance be less than 3.5% per annum.  The Company could not prepay the loan in whole or in part prior to November 15, 2014.  On or after that date, the Company may prepay the loan in its entirety or in part, together with all interest accrued and may incur a prepayment penalty in conjunction with such prepayment.

(7)    Fair Value Disclosures
 
In some instances, certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities are required to be measured or disclosed at fair value according to a fair value hierarchy pursuant to relevant accounting literature.  This hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the inputs used to determine fair values, which are then classified and disclosed in one of three categories.  The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
 
Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable.
Level 3 — model-derived valuations with unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity

Assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their classifications within the fair value hierarchy levels.
 
For assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for which fair value disclosure is required, quantitative disclosure of the fair value for each major category of assets and liabilities is presented below:

(a)
The Company entered into these interest rate swaps as a requirement under certain secured mortgage loans.
(b)
The disclosure is included to provide information regarding the inputs used to determine the fair value of the outstanding debt, in accordance with existing accounting guidance. These instruments are not presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at fair value.

Level 2
The fair value of derivative instruments was estimated based on data observed in the forward yield curve which is widely observed in the marketplace. The Company also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements which utilizes Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads. The Company has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivative and therefore has classified this in Level 2 of the hierarchy.

Level 3
The fair value of both variable and fixed rate debt is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.  The Company estimates the fair value of its total debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by the Company’s lenders. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company used rates of 3.1% and 3.4%, respectively, for fixed rate debt and 1.8% and 1.9%, respectively, for variable rate debt in each period.  The Company has not elected the fair value option with respect to its debt.  The Company’s other financial instruments, principally escrow deposits, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and working capital items, are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate their fair value at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

(8)    Stockholder’s Equity
 
In November 2012, the Company entered into a three-year Sales Agency Agreement with BMO Capital Markets Corp., Jefferies & Company, Inc. and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc. (together the “Agents”). The Sales Agency Agreement provides that the Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price up to $150,000 from time to time through the Agents. Offers and sales of shares of its common stock, if any, may be made in privately negotiated transactions or by any other method deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange or to or through a market maker.  The Company has referred to this arrangement with the Agents in this report on Form 10-Q as its ATM issuance program.  During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company issued approximately 230 shares of its common stock through the ATM issuance program, generating net proceeds of approximately $2,511, comprised of approximately $2,550 in gross proceeds, offset by approximately $38 in commission and fees. As of June 30, 2015, approximately $137,000 remained available for sale under the ATM issuance program.

(10)    Operating Leases
 
Certain tenant leases contain provisions providing for “stepped” rent increases.  U.S. GAAP requires the Company to record rental income for the period of occupancy using the effective monthly rent, which is the average monthly rent for the entire period of occupancy during the term of the lease.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include increases of $166 and $173 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, and $275 and $1,010 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively of rental income for the period of occupancy for which stepped rent increases apply and $23,557 and $23,384 in related accounts receivable as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.  The Company anticipates collecting these amounts over the terms of the leases as scheduled rent payments are made.

(11)    Income Taxes
 
The Company is qualified and has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“the Code”), for federal income tax purposes commencing with the tax year ended December 31, 1995.  Since the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company generally is not subject to federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to stockholders.  A REIT is subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to stockholders, subject to certain adjustments.  If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, without the benefit of certain relief provisions, the Company will be subject to federal and state income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates.  Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income, property or net worth and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
 
The Company engages in certain activities through Inland Venture LLC (“IV LLC”) (formerly known as Inland Venture Corporation), IEV LLC and Inland TRS Property Management, Inc., wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries. These entities engage in activities that would otherwise produce income that would not be REIT qualifying income, including, but not limited to, managing properties owned through certain of the Company’s joint ventures and the sale of ownership interests through the Company’s IPCC joint venture. The taxable REIT subsidiaries are subject to federal and state income and franchise taxes from these activities.
 
The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2015.  The Company expects no significant increases or decreases in uncertain tax positions due to changes in tax positions within one year of June 30, 2015. The Company has no material interest or penalties relating to income taxes recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 or in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. As of June 30, 2015, returns for the calendar years 2011 through 2014 remain subject to examination by U.S. and various state and local tax jurisdictions.
 
Income taxes have been provided for on the asset and liability method, as required by existing guidance.  Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities.
 
(12)    Earnings per Share
 
Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period (the “common shares”).  Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the common shares plus shares issuable upon exercise of existing options or other contracts.  As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, options to purchase 51 and 61 shares of common stock, respectively, at exercise prices ranging from $6.85 to $19.96 per share were outstanding.  These options were not included in the computation of basic or diluted EPS as the effect would be immaterial or anti-dilutive for the periods presented.
 
As of June 30, 2015, 844 shares of common stock have been issued pursuant to employment agreements, employment incentives and as director compensation. Of the total shares issued, 344 have vested and 6 have been cancelled.  The unvested shares are excluded from the computation of basic EPS but reflected in diluted EPS by application of the treasury stock method unless the effect would be immaterial or anti-dilutive.

(13)    Transactions with Related Parties
 
The Company pays or has paid affiliates of TIGI for real estate-related brokerage services and for certain administrative services, including, but not limited to, payroll preparation and management, data processing, insurance consultation and placement, property tax reduction services and mail processing.  These TIGI affiliates provide these services at cost, with the exception of the broker commissions, which are charged as a percentage of the gross transaction amount.  TIGI, through its affiliates, beneficially owns approximately 12.5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of June 30, 2015.  Daniel L. Goodwin, one of our directors, owns a controlling amount of the stock of TIGI. The Company also leases its corporate office from TIGI affiliates.

Effective July 1, 2014, the Company terminated its contracts with TIGI and its affiliates for insurance consultation and placement, mortgage/loan servicing and property tax reduction services. The Company has hired internal staff to handle loan servicing and property tax reduction services and engaged a third party broker to handle its insurance consultation and placement services.

The Company’s current office lease expires in 2015. The Company executed an 11-year office lease with a third party and expects to relocate its corporate office before the end of the year.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company began the process of transitioning its computer services from a TIGI affiliate to a third-party managed service provider. The transition is expected to be complete before the end of 2015 and at the time of full transition, the Company does not expect to incur additional fees for these services from TIGI affiliates.

Amounts paid to TIGI and/or its affiliates for services and office space provided to the Company are set forth below.

reportable segment because all properties have similar characteristics and the Company evaluates the collective performance of its properties. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that it has a single reportable segment.
 
(15)    Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject, from time to time, to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business.  While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes, based on currently available information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial statements of the Company.

Item 2.        Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Certain statements in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (including documents incorporated herein by reference) constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Forward-looking statements are statements that do not reflect historical facts and instead reflect our management’s intentions, beliefs, expectations, plans or predictions of the future.  Forward-looking statements can often be identified by words such as “seek,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” “should” and “could.” Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that describe or contain information related to matters such as management’s intent, belief or expectation with respect to our financial performance, investment strategy or our portfolio, our ability to address debt maturities, our cash flows, our growth prospects, the value of our assets, our joint venture commitments and the amount and timing of anticipated future cash distributions. Forward-looking statements reflect the intent, belief or expectations of our management based on their knowledge and understanding of the business and industry and their assumptions, beliefs and expectations with respect to the market for commercial real estate, the U.S. economy and other future conditions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including but not limited to the factors listed and described under Item 1A”Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 27, 2015 as they may be revised or supplemented by us in subsequent Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings with the SEC.  Among such risks, uncertainties and other factors are market and economic challenges experienced by the U.S. economy or real estate industry as a whole, including dislocations and liquidity disruptions in the credit markets; the inability of tenants to continue paying their rent obligations due to bankruptcy, insolvency or a general downturn in their business; competition for real estate assets and tenants; impairment charges; the availability of cash flow from operating activities for distributions and capital expenditures; our ability to refinance maturing debt or to obtain new financing on attractive terms; future increases in interest rates; actions or failures by our joint venture partners, including development partners; and factors that could affect our ability to qualify as a real estate investment trust. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results.
 
In this report, all references to “we,” “our” and “us” refer collectively to Inland Real Estate Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.   All amounts in this Form 10-Q are stated in thousands with the exception of per share amounts, per square foot amounts, number of properties, and number of leases.
 
Executive Summary
 
We strive to be a leading owner and operator of high-quality, necessity and value-based retail centers in prime locations throughout the Central and Southeastern United States. We seek to provide predictable, sustainable cash flows and continually enhance shareholder value through the expert management and strategic improvement of our portfolio of premier retail properties.

We have qualified and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Inland Real Estate Corporation is a Maryland corporation formed on May 12, 1994. To date, we have focused on open-air neighborhood, community and power shopping centers and single-tenant retail properties located primarily in the Central and Southeastern United States. Through wholly owned subsidiaries, Inland Commercial Property Management, Inc. and Inland TRS Property Management, Inc., we manage all of the properties we own interests in as well as properties for certain third parties and related parties.  Our investment properties are typically anchored by stores which provide everyday goods and services to consumers, such as grocery, drug or discount stores, rather than stores that sell discretionary items.  We seek to acquire properties with high quality tenants and attempt to mitigate the impact of tenant defaults by maintaining a diversified tenant base.  As of June 30, 2015, no single tenant accounted for more than approximately 4.8% of annual base rent in our total portfolio, excluding properties owned through our joint venture with Inland Private Capital Corporation (“IPCC”).
 
As of June 30, 2015, we owned interests in 148 investment properties, including 48 properties owned by our unconsolidated joint ventures.

Long-term Goals and Objectives

Management has implemented a strategic plan designed to accelerate internal growth, improve and diversify our portfolio and strengthen our balance sheet, with the ultimate goal of obtaining an investment-grade rating. The components of the plan are as follows:
Continue to improve our tenant diversification and expand our geographic concentration, with increased footprints in the Central and Southeastern U.S.
Continue to enhance the value of our portfolio through additional repositioning and redevelopment initiatives.
Redeploy capital from dispositions of non-core, limited growth assets into acquisitions of high quality retail assets.
Continue to reduce the cost and extend the term of our debt and reduce our overall leverage over time, which we believe will improve our financial flexibility and liquidity by maintaining access to multiple sources of capital.
In executing these objectives, during the six months ended June 30, 2015, we:
acquired one investment property in Alabama for our consolidated portfolio, one in Minnesota and three in Ohio for our PGGM joint venture and a development property in Schaumburg, Illinois for our new joint venture with North American Real Estate for an aggregate purchase price of $118,996.
sold two investment properties and three outlot pads for approximately $12,315, the proceeds from which were used to partially fund the acquisition of investment properties.
repaid approximately $8,500 of consolidated mortgages payable, resulting in a decrease in outstanding secured debt.
As part of our growth strategy, management has implemented external growth initiatives focusing on investments in unconsolidated joint venture activities. Because certain joint ventures are unconsolidated, we are not able to present a complete picture of the impact these ventures have on our consolidated financial statements. We have included pro rata consolidated information in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which includes adjustments for the portion related to noncontrolling interests and unconsolidated joint ventures accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Because we incur expenses to manage properties that are not on our balance sheet, we believe providing this information allows investors to better compare our overall performance and operating metrics to those of other REITs in our peer group.

Total assets under management include consolidated assets, unconsolidated assets at 100% and assets that we do not have an ownership interest in, but that we manage on behalf of a third party. As of June 30, 2015, total assets under management were approximately $3,132,500 and produced total revenues of $89,177 and $187,270 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.
 
Strategies and Objectives
 
Current Strategies
 
Our primary business objective is to enhance the performance and value of our investment properties through management strategies that address the needs of an evolving retail marketplace.  We believe our success in operating our centers efficiently and effectively is a direct result of our expertise in the acquisition, management, leasing and development/re-development of properties held either directly or through a joint venture.
 
Acquisition Strategies
 
We seek to selectively acquire well-located, open-air retail centers that meet our investment criteria.  We will, from time to time, either acquire properties without financing contingencies or assume existing debt to provide us with a competitive advantage over other purchasers that require financing contingencies and those who are either unable or unwilling to assume existing debt.  Additionally, we concentrate our property acquisitions in areas where we have, or seek to have, a large market concentration.  In doing this, we believe we are able to achieve operating efficiencies and possibly lease several locations to retailers expanding in our markets.  
 
Joint Ventures
 
We have formed joint ventures to acquire stabilized retail properties as well as properties to be redeveloped and vacant land to be developed.  We structure these ventures to earn fees from the joint ventures for providing property management, asset

23


management, acquisition and leasing services, in addition to the returns on our investment in the joint ventures. We will continue to receive management and leasing fees for those investment properties under management, although acquisition fees may fluctuate with the level of acquisition activity through these ventures.
 
We believe that joint ventures support our strategic goals of expanding our footprint to improve diversification, while utilizing our partner’s capital and preserving liquidity on our balance sheet. Additionally, the joint ventures provide us with ongoing fee income that enhances our results of operations from our core portfolio.

To support our ongoing effort to expand our footprint into new markets, in November 2013, we entered into a joint venture with MAB, an affiliate of Melbourne Australia-based MAB Corporation to develop grocery-anchored shopping centers in select markets throughout the Southeastern United States in metropolitan areas in the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, Virginia and Washington D.C. The joint venture agreement also provides that we will purchase each grocery-anchored center at a discount to fair market value after stabilization. A typical project likely will consist of a 50,000 square foot grocery store with approximately 20,000 square feet of additional retail space. Additionally, in September 2014, we entered into a joint venture to develop a single grocery anchored asset in North Carolina.

Additionally, we participate in a joint venture with IPCC that acquires properties which are ultimately sold to investors through a private offering of interests in Delaware Statutory Trusts (“DSTs”).  The joint venture agreement expired June 30, 2015 and the partners are currently negotiating an extension. We earn fees from the joint venture for providing asset management, property management, acquisition and leasing services.  We will continue to receive management and leasing fees for those properties under management; even after all of the interests in a particular DST have been sold.
 
Operations
 
We actively manage costs to minimize operating expenses by centralizing all management, leasing, marketing, financing, accounting and data processing activities to provide operating efficiencies.  We seek to improve rental income and cash flow by aggressively marketing rentable space.  We emphasize regular maintenance and periodic renovation to meet the needs of tenants and to maximize long-term returns.  We maintain a diversified tenant base consisting primarily of retail tenants providing consumer goods and services.  We proactively review our existing portfolio for potential re-development opportunities.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, which consists of cash and short-term investments.  Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were $14,579 and $18,385, respectively. The higher cash balance at December 31, 2014 reflects proceeds from the sale of vacant land and sales activity in our joint venture with IPCC at year-end, the proceeds of which were subsequently used to pay down the balance on our unsecured line of credit facility.  See our discussion of the statements of cash flows for a description of our cash activity during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.
 
We consider all demand deposits, money market accounts and investments in certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements purchased with a maturity of three months or less, at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents.  We maintain our cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions.  The combined account balances at one or more institutions could periodically exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance coverage and, as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage.  However, we do not believe the risk is significant based on our review of the rating of the institutions where our cash is deposited.  FDIC insurance currently covers up to $250 per depositor at each insured bank.

Sources of cash

Income generated from our investment properties is the primary source from which we generate cash.  Other sources of cash include amounts raised from the sale of securities, including shares of our common stock sold under our dividend reinvestment plan and ongoing ATM issuance program, draws on our unsecured line of credit facility, which may be limited due to covenant compliance requirements, proceeds from financings secured by our investment properties, cash flows we retain that are not distributed to our stockholders and fee income received from our unconsolidated joint venture properties.  As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under our various debt agreements, and we had up to $50,000 available under our $275,000 line of credit facility and an additional $200,000 available under an accordion feature, subject to approval of the lending group.  If approved, the terms for the funds borrowed under the accordion feature would be market terms at the

24


time of the borrowing and not the terms of the other borrowings under the line of credit facility.  The lending group is not obligated to approve access to funds under the accordion feature. 
 
In the aggregate, our investment properties are currently generating sufficient cash flow to pay our operating expenses, monthly debt service requirements, certain capital expenditures and current distributions.  Monthly debt service requirements consist primarily of interest payments on our debt obligations although certain of our secured mortgages require monthly principal amortization.

As noted above, we also fund certain of our liquidity needs through the sale of our common stock in “at the market” or “ATM” issuances. Under this ATM program, we may issue up to $150,000 of our shares of common stock. BMO Capital Markets Corp., Jefferies & Company, Inc. and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc. (together the “Agents”) act as our sales agent(s) for these issuances which may be made in privately negotiated transactions or by any other method deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange or to or through a market maker. We refer to the arrangement with the Agents in this report on Form 10-Q as our “ATM issuance program.” During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we issued approximately 230 shares of our common stock through our ATM issuance program, generating net proceeds of approximately $2,511, comprised of approximately $2,550 in gross proceeds, offset by approximately $38 in commissions and fees. As of June 30, 2015, approximately $137,000 remains available for sale under our ATM issuance program.

Uses of Cash
 
We use our cash primarily for the payment of distributions to our preferred and common stockholders, the operation of our investment properties, for interest expense on our debt obligations, for purchasing additional investment properties and capital commitments at existing investment properties and to meet joint venture commitments. Property operation outlays include, but are not limited to, real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, regular maintenance, landscaping, snow removal and periodic renovations to meet tenant needs. Pursuant to lease arrangements, most tenants are required to reimburse us for some or all of their pro rata share of the real estate taxes and operating expenses of the property.

Approximately $97,995 of consolidated debt, including required monthly principal amortization, matures in the next twelve months. Included in this total is an aggregate of approximately $90,247 of outstanding principal, secured by our Algonquin Commons property, which is subject to an $18,600 Payment Guaranty and carve-out guarantees, but generally is non-recourse to us. The loans encumbering Algonquin Commons have matured and the property is currently subject to foreclosure litigation through which the plaintiff is also seeking to enforce the Payment Guaranty. We believe the Payment Guaranty has terminated, but we cannot predict the outcome of the litigation or provide assurance that the Payment Guaranty will not be performed. We intend to repay the remaining maturing debt upon maturity using available cash and/or borrowings under our unsecured line of credit facility. Reference is made to the Total Debt Maturity Schedule in Note 6, “Secured and Unsecured Debt” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2015, which is incorporated into this Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

In October, 2012, we entered into a First Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Limited Partnership Agreement of our joint venture with PGGM.  Subject to the terms and conditions of the Amendment, the partners increased the potential maximum equity contributions to allow for the acquisition of up to an additional $400,000 of grocery-anchored and community retail centers located in Midwestern U.S. markets, using partner equity and secured debt.  The Amendment increased our potential maximum equity contribution to $281,000 and PGGM’s potential maximum equity contribution to $230,000.  The Amendment grants additional time to acquire assets and no contributions are required unless and until both partners approve an additional acquisition.  We will fund our equity contributions with draws on our line of credit facility, proceeds from sales of investment properties, proceeds from financing unencumbered properties or the sale of preferred or common stock. As of June 30, 2015, PGGM’s remaining maximum potential contribution was approximately $13,618 and ours was approximately $16,644.

In November 2013, we entered into a joint venture to develop grocery-anchored shopping centers in select markets throughout the southeastern U.S. with MAB, an affiliate of Melbourne, Australia-based MAB Corporation. The five-year development program is expected to target metropolitan areas in the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, Virginia and Washington D.C. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, we have exclusive rights to all grocery-anchored, build-to-suit opportunities in the southeastern U.S. sourced by MAB. Upon our site approval, we will provide 90% of the equity required to fund approved project costs, while MAB will be responsible for the remaining 10% of the equity, plus venture management, sourcing and acquisition of sites, project financing and all property and development duties. The joint venture agreement also provides that we are required to purchase each grocery-anchored center at a discount to fair market value after stabilization and after certain criteria are met. A typical project likely will consist of a 50,000-square-foot grocery store with approximately 20,000 square feet of additional retail space. As of June 30, 2015, this joint venture had not acquired any properties, but it had three sites under contract, with closings anticipated during the second half of 2015.

In September 2014, we entered into a joint venture to develop Tanglewood Pavilions, a 158,000 square foot power center that is located in Elizabeth City, North Carolina with Thompson Thrift Development, Inc. (“TTDI”). The joint venture acquired the vacant land for $850. Construction has started and the joint venture anticipates delivery to tenants to begin in the latter half of 2015. We will provide 90% of the equity required to fund approved project costs, while TTDI will be responsible for the remaining 10% of the equity, plus venture management and development duties. The joint venture agreement also provides that we are required to purchase the power center at a discount to fair market value after stabilization and after certain criteria are met.
 
One of our goals is to enhance the value of our portfolio through additional repositioning and redevelopment initiatives. We believe that the stability of our portfolio, the lack of new supply of retail space in our targeted markets, and the continued demand from growing retailers has put us in excellent position to be proactive in upgrading the quality of our tenancy and increasing rents. We continue to focus on leasing vacant spaces, but we are also focusing on right-sizing certain retailers and repositioning other centers to manage tenant exposures and open up space to accommodate larger tenants. These activities may require us to take tenants off-line during construction that may have a temporary adverse effect on our results of operations during the period the tenant is not paying rent. We are proactive in moving forward with these activities, as we believe the long term benefits outweigh the temporary decline in cash flows and net operating income. We currently have several projects underway and others under consideration. During 2015, we expect to invest a total of approximately $40,000 in capital for tenant improvements and leasing commission on new leases and building improvements related to some of these repositioning efforts, which is higher than amounts spent in the past two years. This increase in spending is reflective of planned redevelopment projects during 2015. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we invested approximately $16,772 on such capital items. We expect to continue to fund these improvements using cash from operations and draws on our unsecured line of credit facility.

The estimated budget is shown net of approximately $5,900 of anticipated TIF proceeds, the final amount of which will be determined upon project completion.

We have begun the process of transitioning our computer services from an affiliate of The Inland Group, Inc. (“TIGI”) to a third-party managed service provider. The transition is expected to be complete before the end of 2015 and at the time of full transition, we do not expect to incur additional fees for these services from the TIGI affiliate. However, during the transition period, we may incur additional costs to the TIGI affiliate for their assistance. We have incurred $218 and $559 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, as compared to $147 and $325 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 for all computer services from the TIGI affiliate.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Disclosures discussing all critical accounting policies are set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2015, under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies.”  No significant changes have been made to the critical accounting policies subsequent to December 31, 2014.
 
Recent Accounting Principles
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for us on January 1, 2018. Early application is permitted, but not before the original effective date for public business entities (i.e. January 1, 2017). The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. We have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. The ASU requires a reporting entity to treat a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period as a performance condition. This ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted and may be adopted either prospectively for share-based payment awards granted or modified on or after the effective date, or retrospectively, using a modified retrospective approach. We do not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact in our consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidated (Topic 810) Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The ASU changes the way reporting entities evaluate whether (a) they should consolidate limited partnerships and similar entities, (b) fees paid to a decision maker or service provider are variable interests in a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and (c) variable interest in a VIE held by related parties of the reporting entity require the reporting entity to consolidate the VIE. It also eliminates the VIE consolidation model based on a majority exposure to variability that applied to certain investment companies and similar entities. This ASU is effective for public entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including early adoption in an interim period. We are evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest. The ASU requires that debt issuance costs be deducted from the carrying value of the financial liability and not recorded as separate assets, classified as deferred financing costs. The ASU is effective for public entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued and will be applied on a retrospective basis. We do not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Statements of Cash Flows
 
The following table summarizes our consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014:

2015 Compared to 2014
 
Net cash provided by operating activities was $50,009 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $37,040 for the six months ended June 30, 2014.  The increase in cash provided by operating activities was due to an improvement in property operations. See our discussion below under Results of Operations for an explanation related to property operations.

Net cash used in investing activities was $51,366 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $33,594 for the six months ended June 30, 2014.  The primary reason for the increase in cash used in investing activities was lower proceeds of$11,183 received from the sale of investment properties during the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $58,415 received during the six months ended June 30, 2014. Partially offsetting the increase in cash used in investing activities was the use of only $40,070 to purchase investment properties and $27,893 for additions to investment properties during the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the use of $72,926 to purchase investment properties and $9,505 for additions to investment properties during the six months ended June 30, 2014.  Additionally, distributions from our unconsolidated joint ventures, net of investments were $2,213 during the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to net investments in our unconsolidated joint ventures of $15,295 during the six months ended June 30, 2015.
 
Net cash used in financing activities was $2,449 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $12,484 during the six months ended June 30, 2014.  The primary reason for the decrease in cash from financing activities was the receipt of $50,000 in net proceeds from our unsecured line of credit facility during the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to net proceeds of only $35,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015. Additionally, we paid $3,650 more in distributions during the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. Partially offsetting this decrease in cash from financing activities was the net repayment of mortgage debt in the amount of $4,217 during the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $7,083 during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Results of Operations
 
This section describes and compares our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.  At June 30, 2015, we had ownership interests in 23 single-user retail properties, 48 Neighborhood Centers, 36 Community Centers, 40 Power Centers and one Lifestyle Center.  We generate almost all of our net operating income from property operations. 

One metric that management uses to evaluate our overall portfolio is same store net operating income. Same store net operating income, which is the net operating income of properties owned during the same periods during each year ("same store" properties), is considered a non-GAAP financial measure because it does not include straight-line rental income, amortization of lease intangibles, lease termination income, interest, depreciation, amortization and bad debt expense. We provide same store net operating income as another metric to compare the results of property operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. We also provide a reconciliation of these amounts to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure, net income attributable to common stockholders.

Same store net operating income is a non-GAAP measure that allows management to monitor the operations of our existing properties for comparable periods to measure the performance of our current portfolio and determine the effects of our new acquisitions on net income.  We believe that net operating income is also meaningful as an indicator of the effectiveness of our management of properties because net operating income excludes certain items that are not a product of management, such as depreciation and interest expense. A total of 92 of our investment properties were “same store” properties during the periods presented.  These properties comprise approximately 9.3 million square feet.  The “same store” investment properties represent approximately 89% of the square footage of our consolidated portfolio at June 30, 2015


30


In the table below, “other investment properties” includes activity from properties acquired and properties disposed of during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014, Algonquin Commons, for which a receiver and its affiliated management company are now managing and operating, properties undergoing significant redevelopment and activity from properties owned through our joint venture with IPCC while these properties were consolidated.   Operations from properties acquired through this joint venture are recorded as consolidated until those properties become unconsolidated with the first sale of ownership interest to investors.  Once the operations are deconsolidated, the income is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. 

The following table presents property net operating income, broken out between “same store” and “other investment properties,” for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014:

On a “same store” basis, (comparing the results of operations of the investment properties owned during the three months ended June 30, 2015 with the results of the same investment properties during the three months ended June 30, 2014), property net operating income increased $1,565 with total property income increasing $1,020 and total property operating expenses decreasing $545. The reasons for these increases and decreases are discussed further below.

On a “same store” basis, (comparing the results of operations of the investment properties owned during the six months ended June 30, 2015 with the results of the same investment properties during the six months ended June 30, 2014), property net operating income increased $3,565 with total property income increasing $795 and total property operating expenses decreasing $2,770. The reasons for these increases and decreases are discussed further below.

Net income attributable to common stockholders decreased $5,723 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014 and decreased $19,945 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. These decreases are the net impact of the results discussed below.
 
Rental income
Rental income (excluding straight-line rental income and the amortization of lease intangibles) increased $324 on a “same store” basis, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014, primarily due to increased rental rates on renewed leases, new leases signed during the respective periods and the end of any associated rent abatement periods.  Including “other investment properties,” total rental income decreased $675 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014. This decrease is due to loss of rental income upon disposition of investment properties and from taking tenants off-line during our redevelopment initiatives as well as higher rents during the six months ended June 30, 2014 from properties owned through our joint venture with IPCC, while they were consolidated. This decrease was partially offset by rental income from new acquisitions.

Rental income (excluding straight-line rental income and the amortization of lease intangibles) increased $840 on a “same store” basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. Including “other investment properties,” total rental income decreased $1,423 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. Rental income for the “same store” and “other investment properties” changed for the same reasons as for the three month periods.

Tenant recovery income
Tenant recovery income increased $616 on a “same store” basis, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014.  Including “other investment properties,” total tenant recovery income increased $1,062 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014.  The primary reason for the increase in recovery income is the final income true-up adjustments recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2015 upon completion of annual tenant reconciliations.

Tenant recovery income decreased $517 on a “same store” basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. Including “other investment properties,” total tenant recovery income decreased $2,242 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. The primary reason for the decrease in tenant recovery income is a corresponding decrease in the amount of property operating and real estate tax expenses, both of which are recoverable under tenant leases. Partially offsetting this decrease are the true-up adjustments resulting in the increase for the three month period.

Property operating expenses
Property operating expenses increased $3 on a “same store” basis for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014.  Including “other investment properties,” total property operating expenses were equal for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014

Property operating expense decreased $2,623 on a “same store” basis for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. Including “other investment properties,” total property operating expenses decreased $3,572 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. The primary reason for the decrease in property operating expenses is a decrease in snow removal costs and routine maintenance costs as a result of the more severe winter weather in 2014.

Real estate tax expense
Real estate tax expense decreased $548 on a “same store” basis for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014.  Including “other investment properties,” total real estate tax expense decreased $194 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014.  The change in real estate tax expense is a result of changes in the assessed values of our investment properties or the tax rates charged by the various taxing authorities. 

Real estate tax expense decreased $147 on a “same store” basis for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. Including “other investment properties,” total real estate tax expense increased $87 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. Real estate tax fluctuated for the same reason as provided for the three month periods.


33


Lease termination income
Lease termination income increased $2,659 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. The primary reason for the increase was the receipt of approximately $2,620 from two tenants at two different properties upon termination of their leases before expiration. These leases were terminated because we had executed leases with better credit replacement tenants and implemented a plan to undergo significant redevelopment of these investment properties.

Gain on sale of investment properties, net
Gain on sale of investment properties, net decreased $8,659 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014 due to decreased disposition activity during the three months ended June 30, 2015.

Gain on sale of investment properties, net decreased $19,895 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014 due to the same reasons as provided for the three month periods.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $573 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014 due to increased net income from our captive insurance program.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $2,869 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we were granted possession of two vacant buildings which had been previously occupied by tenants under ground leases. Upon expiration of the leases, ownership of the buildings was transferred to us, according to the lease provisions, resulting in income to the joint venture of approximately $2,347. Our pro rata share of this amount, equal to $1,291, is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures. Additionally, the increase is due to increased net income on the unconsolidated pool of properties, primarily from acquisitions through our joint venture with PGGM.

Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization decreased $1,748 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014, due to the write-off of assets upon early termination of certain leases in prior periods and upon being fully amortized.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $4,687 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014, due to the write-offs described for the three month periods. Additionally the decrease is due to the sale of certain investment properties during the six months ended June 30, 2015. Partially offsetting this decrease in depreciation and amortization is depreciation expense recorded on newly acquired investment properties and tenant improvements for work related to new leases.

Interest expense
Interest expense decreased $1,646 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in interest expense is due primarily to a decrease in mortgage interest and related loan fee amortization due to the repayment of certain loans. Additionally, the decrease is related to the elimination of interest expense and the amortization of the discount upon repayment of our convertible notes during fourth quarter of 2014.

Interest expense decreased $3,358 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014 due to the same reasons as provided for the three month periods.

Provision for asset impairment
Provision for asset impairment during the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $9,355 and $222 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The asset impairments were required because the Company has negotiated sales prices on five investment properties that were below their respective carrying values.

Portfolio Activity
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2015, our leasing activity remained strong and our leasing spreads were positive on both new and renewal leases in our consolidated portfolio. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we executed 18 new, 82 renewal and 12 non-comparable leases (expansion square footage or spaces for which no former tenant was in place for one year or more), aggregating 640,180 square feet on our consolidated portfolio.  The 18 new leases comprise 71,887 square feet with an average rental rate of $17.69 per square foot, a 19.2% increase over the average expiring rate.  The 82 renewal leases comprise 418,242 square feet with an average rental rate of $14.92 per square foot, a 5.5% increase over the average expiring

34


rate.  The 12 non-comparable leases comprise 150,051 square feet with an average base rent of $11.02 per square foot.  The calculations of former and new average base rents are adjusted for rent abatements. 

The following table shows the results of our leasing activity during the six months ended June 30, 2015 on the vacant gross leasable area in our consolidated portfolio.

During the remainder of 2015, 67 leases, comprising 269,960 square feet and accounting for approximately 3.2% of our annualized base rent, will be expiring in our consolidated portfolio.  We do not believe that any of the expiring leases are individually material to our financial results.  The weighted average expiring rate on these leases is $16.31 per square foot.  We will continue to attempt to renew expiring leases and re-lease those spaces that are vacant, or may become vacant, at more favorable rental rates to increase revenue and cash flow.

(a)
All occupancy calculations exclude seasonal tenants.
(b)
Leased Occupancy is defined as the percentage of gross leasable area for which there is a signed lease, regardless of whether the tenant is currently obligated to pay rent under their lease agreement.
(c)
Financial Occupancy is defined as the percentage of total gross leasable area for which a tenant is obligated to pay rent under the terms of its lease agreement, regardless of the actual use or occupation by that tenant of the area being leased, excluding tenants in their abatement period.
(d)
Unconsolidated occupancy includes 100% of the square footage of the related properties.
(e)
Due to the occupancy fluctuations produced by the temporary ownership of the properties within this joint venture, we disclose occupancy rates excluding these properties.  We believe the additional disclosure allows investors to evaluate the occupancy of the portfolio of properties we expect to own longer term.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
We consider FFO a widely accepted and appropriate measure of performance for a REIT.  FFO provides a supplemental measure to compare our performance and operations to other REITs.  Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, NAREIT has promulgated a standard known as FFO, which it believes more accurately reflects the operating performance of a REIT such as ours.  As defined by NAREIT, FFO means net income computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of operating property, plus depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities in which the REIT holds an interest.  In addition, NAREIT has further clarified the FFO definition to add-back impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate or of investments in unconsolidated entities that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of depreciable real estate.  Under U.S. GAAP, impairment charges reduce net income.  While impairment charges are added back in the calculation of FFO, we caution that because impairments to the value of any property are typically based on reductions in estimated future undiscounted cash flows compared to current carrying value, declines in the undiscounted cash flows which led to the impairment charges reflect declines in property operating performance that may be permanent.  We have adopted the NAREIT definition for computing FFO.  Recurring FFO includes adjustments to FFO for the impact of lease termination income, certain gains and non-cash impairment charges of non-depreciable real estate, net of taxes recorded in comparable periods, in order to present the performance of our core portfolio operations.  Management uses the calculation of FFO and Recurring FFO for several reasons.  Recurring FFO per weighted average common share outstanding is used in the employment agreements we have with our executives to determine a portion of incentive compensation payable to them.  Additionally, we use FFO and Recurring FFO to compare our performance to that of other REITs in our peer group.  The calculation of FFO and Recurring FFO may vary from entity to entity because capitalization and expense policies tend to vary from entity to entity.  Items that are capitalized do not impact FFO and Recurring FFO whereas items that are expensed reduce FFO and Recurring FFO.  Consequently, our presentation of FFO and Recurring FFO may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other REITs.  FFO and Recurring FFO do not represent cash flows from operations as defined by U.S. GAAP, are not indicative of cash available to fund cash flow needs and liquidity, including our ability to pay distributions, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, for purposes of evaluating our operating performance.  The following table reflects our FFO and Recurring FFO for the periods presented, reconciled to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders for these periods:

EBITDA is defined as earnings (losses) from operations excluding: (1) interest expense; (2) income tax benefit or expenses; (3) depreciation and amortization expense; and (4) gains (loss) on non-operating property.  We believe EBITDA is useful to us and to an investor as a supplemental measure in evaluating our financial performance because it excludes expenses that we believe may not be indicative of our operating performance.  By excluding interest expense, EBITDA measures our financial performance regardless of how we finance our operations and capital structure.  By excluding depreciation and amortization expense, we believe we can more accurately assess the performance of our portfolio.  Because EBITDA is calculated before recurring cash charges such as interest expense and taxes and is not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements, it does not reflect the amount of capital needed to maintain our properties nor does it reflect trends in interest costs due to changes in interest rates or increases in borrowing.  EBITDA should be considered only as a supplement to net earnings and may be calculated differently by other REITs.
 
We believe EBITDA is an important supplemental non-GAAP measure.  We utilize EBITDA to calculate our interest expense coverage ratio, which equals EBITDA divided by total interest expense.  We believe that using EBITDA, which excludes the effect of non-operating expenses and non-cash charges, all of which are based on historical cost and may be of limited significance in evaluating current performance, facilitates comparison of core operating profitability between periods and between REITs, particularly in light of the use of EBITDA by a seemingly large number of REITs in their reports on Forms 10-Q and 10-K.  We believe that investors should consider EBITDA in conjunction with net income and the other required U.S. GAAP measures of our performance to improve their understanding of our operating results.  Recurring EBITDA includes adjustments to EBITDA for the impact of lease termination income and non-cash impairment charges in comparable periods in order to present the performance of our core portfolio operations.

Pro Rata Consolidated Information
These schedules present certain Non-GAAP pro-rata consolidated information as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. These schedules are considered Non-GAAP because they include financial information related to consolidated joint ventures with an adjustment for the portion related to noncontrolling interests and unconsolidated joint ventures accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Because we incur expenses to manage properties that are not on our balance sheet, we believe providing this information allows investors to better compare our overall performance, size and operating metrics to those of other REITs in our peer group. The Company believes this Non-GAAP information provides supplementary information that is both useful to and has been requested by investors and analysts. Investors should not consider Non-GAAP information as a substitute for, or as superior to, U.S. GAAP information. Rather, Non-GAAP information may provide useful information in addition to information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
We may enter into derivative financial instrument transactions in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument.  We may designate these derivative financial instruments as hedges and apply hedge accounting, as the instrument to be hedged will expose us to interest rate risk, and the derivative financial instrument is designed to reduce that exposure.  Gains or losses related to the derivative financial instrument would be deferred and amortized over the terms of the hedged instrument.  If a derivative terminates or is sold, the gain or loss is recognized.  As of June 30, 2015, we have one interest rate swap contract, which was entered into as a requirement under a secured mortgage.
 
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates to the fact that some of our long-term debt bears interest at variable rates.  These variable rate loans are based on LIBOR, therefore, fluctuations in LIBOR impact our results of operations.  We seek to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs by closely monitoring our variable rate debt and converting this debt to fixed rates when we deem such conversion advantageous.
 
Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques, including periodically evaluating fixed interest rate quotes on all variable rate debt and the costs associated with converting the debt to fixed rate debt.  Also, existing fixed and variable rate loans which are scheduled to mature in the next year or two are evaluated for possible early refinancing or extension based on our view of the current interest rate environment. The table below presents the principal amount of the debt maturing each year, including monthly annual amortization of principal, through December 31, 2019 and thereafter and weighted average interest rates for the debt maturing in each specified period. The instruments, the principal amounts of which are presented below, were entered into for non-trading purposes.

  ________________________________________
(a)
Approximately $97,995 of our mortgages payable mature in the next twelve months.  Included in the debt maturing in 2015 is outstanding principal of approximately $90,247 secured by our Algonquin Commons property. The loans encumbering Algonquin Commons have matured and the property is currently subject to foreclosure litigation and we cannot currently predict the outcome of the litigation. We intend to repay the other maturing debt upon maturity using available cash and/or borrowings under our unsecured line of credit facility.
(b)
The fair value of debt is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.  We estimate the fair value of our debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered to us for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by our lenders (Level 3). 
(c)
The total debt above reflects the total principal amount outstanding.  The consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2015 reflect the value of the debt including the remaining unamortized mortgages premium/discount of $1,788.
(d)
Included in the debt maturing during 2018 is our unsecured line of credit facility, totaling $225,000.  We pay interest only during the term of this facility at a variable rate equal to a spread over LIBOR, in effect at the time of the borrowing, which fluctuates with our leverage ratio.  As of June 30, 2015, the weighted average interest rate on outstanding draws on the line of credit facility was 1.59%.  This credit facility requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.
(e)
Included in the debt maturing during 2018 is our $50,000 term loan which matures in November 2018.  We pay interest only during the term of this loan at a variable rate, with an interest rate floor of 3.50%.  As of June 30, 2015, the interest rate on this term loan was 3.50%.  This term loan requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.
(f)
Included in the debt maturing during 2019 is our $200,000 term loan, which matures in July 2019.  We pay interest only during the term of this loan at a variable rate equal to a spread over LIBOR, in effect at the time of the borrowing, which fluctuates with our leverage ratio.  As of June 30, 2015, the weighted average interest rate on the term loan was 1.54%.  This term loan requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.
 
Our ultimate exposure to interest rate fluctuations depends on the amount of indebtedness that bears interest at variable rates, the time at which the interest rate is adjusted, the amount of the adjustment, our ability to prepay or refinance variable rate indebtedness, fixed rate debt that matures and needs to be refinanced and hedging strategies used to reduce the impact of any increases in rates.
 
At June 30, 2015, approximately $480,300, or 56%, of our debt bore interest at variable rates, with a weighted average rate of 1.78% per annum. An increase in the variable interest rates charged on debt containing variable interest rate terms, constitutes

40


a market risk.  A 1.0% annualized increase in interest rates would have increased our interest expense by approximately $2,401 for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify our financial reports and to the members of senior management and the Board of Directors.
 
Based on management’s evaluation as of June 30, 2015, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) were effective as of the date of evaluation to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended June 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
