Behringer Harvard Opportunity REIT I, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)


1. Business
Behringer Harvard Opportunity REIT I, Inc. (which may be referred to as the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) was incorporated in November 2004 as a Maryland corporation and has elected to be taxed, and currently qualifies, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes.
We operate commercial real estate and real estate-related assets located in and outside the United States. With our opportunistic and value-add investment strategy, we have focused generally on acquiring properties with significant possibilities for capital appreciation, such as those requiring development, redevelopment, or repositioning, or those located in markets and submarkets with higher volatility, lower barriers to entry, and high growth potential.  We have acquired a wide variety of properties, including office, retail, hospitality, recreation and leisure, multifamily, industrial, and other properties.  We have purchased existing and newly constructed properties and properties under development or construction.  As of September 30, 2015, we wholly owned four properties and consolidated three properties through investments in joint ventures on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.  In addition, we have a noncontrolling, unconsolidated ownership interest in a joint venture consisting of 19 properties that is accounted for using the equity method. 
In September 2007, we made mezzanine loans to the owner and developer of Alexan Black Mountain Apartments, a multifamily community located in Henderson, Nevada, and obtained an option to purchase the property after completion of construction. On August 18, 2015, we entered into a letter agreement with the owner pursuant to which we consented to the sale of Alexan Black Mountain Apartments to a third party for an amount less than the senior mortgage loan on the property and released our option rights in exchange for a payment of less than $0.1 million. The sale of the property closed on August 19, 2015. Our mezzanine loan, which was fully reserved, was retired and the proceeds were recorded as other income.
Substantially all of our business is conducted through Behringer Harvard Opportunity OP I, LP, a Texas limited partnership organized in November 2004 (“Behringer Harvard OP I”), or its subsidiaries.  Our wholly owned subsidiary, BHO, Inc., a Delaware corporation, owns less than a 0.1% interest in Behringer Harvard OP I as its sole general partner.  The remaining interest of Behringer Harvard OP I is held as a limited partnership interest by our wholly owned subsidiary, BHO Business Trust, a Maryland business trust. We have entered our disposition phase and are currently considering liquidity options for our stockholders. Therefore, we are not actively seeking to purchase additional properties. We will seek stockholder approval prior to liquidating our entire portfolio. Our investment properties are located in Colorado, Missouri, Texas, The Commonwealth of The Bahamas, the Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovakia.
We are externally managed and advised by Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, LLC (“Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I” or the “Advisor”), a Texas limited liability company.  Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I is responsible for managing our day-to-day affairs and for identifying and making acquisitions, dispositions, and investments on our behalf.
Presentation of Financial Statements
Our financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business as we proceed through our disposition phase.  As is usual for opportunity-style real estate investment programs, we are structured as a finite-life entity, and have entered the final phase of operations.  This phase includes selling our assets, retiring our liabilities, and distributing net proceeds to stockholders.  We have experienced significant losses and may generate negative cash flows as mortgage note obligations and expenses exceed revenues.   If we are unable to sell a property when we determine to do so, it could have a significant adverse effect on our cash flows that are necessary to meet our mortgage obligations and our ability to satisfy our other liabilities in the normal course of business.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to sell real estate investments, to pay down debt as it matures if extensions or new financings are unavailable, and our ability to fund ongoing costs of our Company, including our development and operating properties.

2. Interim Unaudited Financial Information
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 18, 2015.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted in this report on Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
The results for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of future financial results.  The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2015, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the condensed consolidated statements of equity and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 have not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly present our condensed consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2015 and our condensed consolidated results of operations, equity, and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.  Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature.
As discussed in Note 6, Real Estate Investments, subheading Discontinued Operations and Real Estate Held for Sale, effective January 1, 2015, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance that changes the criteria for reporting a discontinued operation. This adoption impacts the comparability of our financial statements as disposals of individual operating properties will generally no longer qualify as discontinued operations.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Described below are certain of our significant accounting policies.  The disclosures regarding several of the policies have been condensed or omitted in accordance with interim reporting regulations specified by Form 10-Q.  Please see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for a complete listing of all of our significant accounting policies.
In the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, all dollar and share amounts in tabulation are in thousands of dollars and shares, respectively, unless otherwise noted.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
Our condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of other subsidiaries over which we have control.  All inter-company transactions, balances, and profits have been eliminated in consolidation.  Interests in entities acquired will be evaluated based on applicable GAAP, which includes the requirement to consolidate entities deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIE”) in which we are the primary beneficiary.  If the interest in the entity is determined not to be a VIE, then the entity will be evaluated for consolidation based on legal form, economic substance, and the extent to which we have control and/or substantive participating rights under the respective ownership agreement.
There are judgments and estimates involved in determining if an entity in which we have made an investment is a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary.  The entity is evaluated to determine if it is a VIE by, among other things, calculating the percentage of equity being risked compared to the total equity of the entity.  Determining expected future losses involves assumptions of various possibilities of the results of future operations of the entity, assigning a probability to each possibility and using a discount rate to determine the net present value of those future losses.  A change in the judgments, assumptions, and estimates outlined above could result in consolidating an entity that should not be consolidated or accounting for an investment using the equity method that should in fact be consolidated, the effects of which could be material to our financial statements.

We amortize the value of in-place leases, in-place tenant improvements and in-place leasing commissions to expense over the initial term of the respective leases.  In no event does the amortization period for intangible assets or liabilities exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building.  Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the acquired lease intangibles related to that tenant would be charged to expense.  As of September 30, 2015, the estimated remaining average useful lives for acquired lease intangibles range from less than 1 year to less than 7 years.
Anticipated amortization expense associated with the acquired lease intangibles for each of the following five years as of September 30, 2015 is as follows (in thousands):

Real Estate Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
We classify properties as held for sale when certain criteria are met, in accordance with GAAP.  At that time, we present the assets and obligations of the property held for sale separately in our consolidated balance sheet and we cease recording depreciation and amortization expense related to that property.  Properties held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or their estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell.  We had no properties classified as held for sale at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Effective January 1, 2015, we adopted the revised guidance in Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 regarding the reporting of discontinued operations. For sales of real estate or assets classified as held for sale after January 1, 2015, we will evaluate whether a disposal transaction meets the criteria of a strategic shift and will have a major effect on our operations and financial results to determine if the results of operations and gains on sale of real estate will be presented as part of our continuing operations or as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations. If the disposal represents a strategic shift, it will be classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented; if not, it will be presented in continuing operations.
Condominium Inventory
For condominium inventory, at each reporting date, management compares the estimated fair value less costs to sell to the carrying value.  An adjustment is recorded to the extent that the fair value less selling costs is less than the carrying value.  We determine the estimated fair value of condominiums based on comparable sales in the normal course of business under existing and anticipated market conditions.  This evaluation takes into consideration estimated future selling prices, costs incurred to date, estimated additional future costs, and management’s plans for the property. We currently have one remaining condominium unit in inventory at Chase — The Private Residences.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable primarily consist of straight-line rental revenue receivables of $5.2 million and $5.9 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and receivables from our hotel operators and tenants related to our other consolidated properties of $2.6 million and $2.3 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.  The allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.2 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.
Investment Impairment
For all of our real estate and real estate-related investments, we monitor events and changes in circumstances indicating that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets may not be recoverable. Examples of the types of events and circumstances that would cause management to assess our assets for potential impairment include, but are not limited to: a significant decrease in the market price of an asset; a significant change in the manner in which the asset is being used; an accumulation of costs in excess of the acquisition basis plus construction of the property; major vacancies and the resulting loss of revenues; natural disasters; a change in the projected holding period; legitimate purchase offers and changes in the global and local markets or economic conditions. Our assets may at times be concentrated in limited geographic locations and, to the extent that our portfolio is concentrated in limited geographic locations, downturns specifically related to such regions may result in tenants defaulting on their lease obligations at a portion of our properties within a short time period, which may result in asset impairments. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, we assess potential impairment by comparing estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated over the life of the asset and from its eventual disposition to the carrying amount of the asset. These projected cash flows are prepared internally by the Advisor and reflect in-place and projected leasing activity, market revenue and expense growth rates, market capitalization rates, discount rates, and changes in economic and other relevant conditions. The Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as well as a panel of asset managers and a financial analyst of the Advisor, review these projected cash flows to assure that the valuation is prepared using reasonable inputs and assumptions that are consistent with market data and with assumptions that would be used by a third-party market participant and assume the highest and best use of the investment. We consider trends, strategic decisions regarding future development plans, and other factors in our assessment of whether impairment conditions exist. In the event that the carrying amount exceeds the estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to adjust the carrying amount of the asset to estimated fair value. While we believe our estimates of future cash flows are reasonable, different assumptions regarding factors such as market rents, economic conditions, and occupancy rates could significantly affect these estimates.
In evaluating our investments for impairment, management may use appraisals and make estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the projected date of disposition of the properties, the estimated future cash flows of the properties during our ownership, planned development and the projected sales price of each of the properties. A future change in these estimates and assumptions could result in understating or overstating the book value of our investments, which could be material to our financial statements. In addition, we may incur impairment charges on real estate assets classified as held for sale in the future if the carrying amount of the asset upon classification as held for sale exceeds the estimated fair value, less costs to sell.

We also evaluate our investment in an unconsolidated joint venture at each reporting date. If we believe there is an other than temporary decline in market value, we will record an impairment charge based on these evaluations. We assess potential impairment by comparing our portion of estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated by the joint venture over the life of the joint venture’s assets to the carrying amount of the joint venture. In the event that the carrying amount exceeds our portion of estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to adjust the carrying amount of the joint venture to its estimated fair value.
The value of our properties held for development depends on market conditions, including estimates of the project start date, as well as estimates of future demand for the property type under development. We have analyzed trends and other information related to each potential development and incorporated this information, as well as our current outlook, into the assumptions we use in our impairment analyses. Due to the judgment and assumptions applied in the estimation process with respect to impairments, including the fact that limited market information regarding the value of comparable land exists at this time, it is possible actual results could differ substantially from those estimated.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded $12.2 million of non-cash impairment charges as a result of measurable decreases in the fair value of four of our investments. We recorded a $0.6 million impairment for our one remaining condominium unit at Chase — The Private Residences in the second quarter of 2015. In the third quarter of 2015, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $6.8 million for our Frisco Square land based on an indication of a change in market conditions for land development. In estimating the fair value of the Frisco Square land, we considered market comparables as well as the time and costs to hold the land until developed. We also recorded non-cash impairment charges of $2.1 million for Northborough Tower and $2.7 million for our Northpoint Central office building during the third quarter of 2015. In estimating the fair value of both Northborough Tower and Northpoint Central, we considered offers received during the marketing process of the assets in the third quarter of 2015, market comparables and management’s internal discounted cash flow analysis prepared with the consideration of the market conditions in Houston where both buildings are located.
We believe the carrying value of our operating real estate assets, our properties under development and our investment in an unconsolidated joint venture is currently recoverable. However, if market conditions worsen beyond our current expectations, or if our assumptions regarding expected future cash flows from the use and eventual disposition of our assets decrease or our expected hold periods decrease, or if changes in our development strategy significantly affect any key assumptions used in our fair value calculations, we may need to take additional charges in future periods for impairments related to existing assets. Any such non-cash charges would have an adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency for our international equity investment in Central Europe Joint Venture is the Euro. We use period-end exchange rates to translate balances of assets and liabilities while the statement of operations amounts are translated using the average exchange rate for the respective period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in exchange rates from period to period are reported separately as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) as a separate component. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
When the Company ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a consolidated foreign entity and the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity, the cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) balance is required to be released into earnings. For sales of an equity method investment that is a foreign entity, a pro rata portion of CTA attributable to the investment would be recognized in earnings when the investment is sold. When an entity sells either a part or all of its investment in a consolidated foreign entity, CTA would be recognized in earnings only if the sale results in the parent no longer having a controlling financial interest in the foreign entity. On July 28, 2008, we invested in Central Europe Joint Venture that owned 22 properties, which is our only foreign investment as of September 30, 2015. The joint venture sold one property in 2014, one in the first quarter of 2015, and one in the third quarter of 2015 and had 19 properties remaining as of September 30, 2015. We will recognize CTA upon the sale of all or substantially all of our investment in the Central Europe Joint Venture.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  These estimates include such items as impairment of long-lived assets, depreciation and amortization, allowance for doubtful accounts, and allowance for loan losses.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Subsequent Events
We have evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 (“ASU 2014-08”), Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topics 205 and 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.  The updated guidance revised the definition of a discontinued operation by limiting discontinued operations reporting to disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift, or change in the entity’s strategy, that has, or will have, a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. This guidance applies to a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity classified as held for sale or disposed of by sale or by means other than a sale, such as abandonment. The Company adopted ASU 2014-08 effective January 1, 2015. As a result of this adoption, the results of operations and gains on sales of real estate for disposals from January 1, 2015 forward which do not meet the criteria of a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on our operations and financial results will be presented as continuing operations in our consolidated statements of operations. We believe future sales of our individual operating properties will no longer qualify as discontinued operations.
In May 2014, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2014-09”) to ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.  ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most of the existing revenue recognition guidance.  ASU 2014-09 requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services and also requires certain additional disclosures.  ASU 2014-09 is effective for public companies for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, as adjusted by a one-year deferral of the new revenue standard, confirmed by FASB in the July 2015 meeting. In addition, early adoption will be permitted as of the original effective date in ASU 2014-09 which was annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within those annual periods. Either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.
In July 2014, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2014-15”), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 requires management's assessment of a company's ability to continue as a going concern and provide related footnote disclosures when conditions give rise to substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the financial statement issuance date. ASU 2014-15 applies to all companies and is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, and all annual and interim periods thereafter. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-15 on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2015, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2015-01”) to ASC Topic 225, Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items. ASU 2015-01 eliminates the concept of an extraordinary item from U.S. GAAP. An entity is no longer required to (i) segregate an extraordinary item from the results of ordinary operations; (ii) separately present an extraordinary item on its income statement, net of tax, after income from continuing operations; and (iii) disclose income taxes and earnings per share data applicable to an extraordinary item. ASU 2015-01 does not affect disclosure guidance for events or transactions that are unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence. ASU 2015-01 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. We would not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued an update (“ASU No. 2015-02”) to ASC Topic 810, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. ASU 2015-02 makes several modifications to the consolidation guidance for VIEs and general partners’ investments in limited partnerships, as well as modifications to the evaluation of whether limited partnerships are VIEs or voting interest entities. The amendments in ASU 2015-02 are effective for public companies in interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2015-03”) to ASC Topic 835, Interest - Imputation of Interest, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The amendments in ASU 2015-03 require debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, consistent with debt discounts, instead of being presented as a deferred charge. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this updated guidance. ASU 2015-03 is effective for public companies in interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance requires retrospective application. As of September 30, 2015, we have $1.3 million of net deferred financing costs that would be reclassified from a long-term asset to a reduction in the carrying amount of our debt.

4. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy) has been established.
Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that we have the ability to access.  Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.  Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.  Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity.  In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.  Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
Historically, we have used interest rate caps to manage our interest rate risk.  The valuation of these instruments was determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative.  This analysis reflected the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and used observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, implied volatilities, and foreign currency exchange rates.
As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had no derivatives.
Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded non-cash impairment charges totaling $12.2 million. We recorded $2.1 million and $2.7 million of non-cash impairment charges to reduce the carrying values of our Northborough Tower and Northpoint Central office buildings, respectively, to the estimated fair value. In estimating the fair value of both Northborough Tower and Northpoint Central, we considered offers received during the marketing process of the assets in the third quarter of 2015, market comparables and management’s internal discounted cash flow analysis prepared with the consideration of the market conditions in Houston where both buildings are located. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we also recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $6.8 million related to our Frisco Square land to reduce the carrying value to the estimated fair value based on an indication of a change in market conditions for land development. In estimating the fair value of the Frisco Square land, we considered market comparables as well as the time and costs to hold the land until developed. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded a $0.6 million non-cash impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of our one remaining condominium at Chase — The Private Residences to current market price. We based the fair value on the current list price less concessions and closing costs totaling $0.2 million

for a fair value of $2.3 million at September 30, 2015. The estimates are considered Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy described above. We did not record any impairment charges during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Due to a change in the estimated hold period of our Northborough Tower office building, we evaluated the asset for recoverability, and as a result, recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $9.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2014. This change was based on the commercial real estate market conditions in Houston, Texas, where our Northborough Tower office building is located, which are not expected to recover within our estimated hold period. The inputs used to calculate the fair value of Northborough Tower included bona fide purchase offers, or the expected sales price of an executed sales agreement and market comparables. The market comparable estimate is considered Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy described above.
The following fair value hierarchy tables present information about our assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014 (in thousands):

Due to a change in the estimated hold period of our Northborough Tower office building, we evaluated the asset for recoverability, and as a result, recorded a non-cash impairment of $9.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2014.
There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between the levels of the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014.

5. Fair Value Measurement of Financial Instruments
We determined the following disclosure of estimated fair values using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop the related estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, management estimated that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other liabilities, and payables/receivables from related parties were at amounts that reasonably approximated their fair value based on their highly liquid nature and/or short-term maturities.
The notes payable totaling $164.5 million as of September 30, 2015 and $153.6 million as of December 31, 2014 have a fair value of approximately $164.7 million and $154.3 million, respectively. The fair values are based upon interest rates for mortgages with similar terms and remaining maturities that management believes we could obtain. The fair value of the notes payable is categorized as a Level 2 basis. The fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis valuation on the borrowing rates currently available for loans with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of the notes payable was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by a market rate.
The fair value estimates presented herein are based on information available to our management as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Although our management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these condensed consolidated financial statements since those respective dates, and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

On August 5, 2014, we received the 5% interests of Chase Park Plaza Hotel and Chase — The Private Residences held by Kingsdell, L.P. and now own 100% of the entities.

Our Frisco Square mixed-use development consists of 101,000 square feet of office space, 71,000 square feet of retail, a 41,500 square foot movie theater, 114 multifamily units, approximately 27 acres of land which we own 100%, and a 3.4 acre multifamily project in development in which we own a 90% interest.

Our initial investment in Royal Island was made in May 2007. We consolidated Royal Island as of June 6, 2012 when we obtained all of the outstanding shares of Royal Island (Australia) Pty Limited. A third party indirectly owns 12.71% of Royal Island.
Real Estate Development
The Ablon at Frisco Square
On August 26, 2014, we contributed 3.4 acres of land held by our Frisco Square mixed-use project to The Ablon at Frisco Square, LLC (“Ablon Frisco Square Venture”), a special purpose entity in which we own a 90% limited partnership interest. The venture was formed to construct a 275-unit multifamily project. Construction on the development began on September 2, 2014. Total construction costs are expected to be approximately $42.1 million. Concurrently with the land contribution, the joint venture closed on a $26.3 million construction loan. Construction costs incurred through September 30, 2015 were $30.9 million. We expect a portion of the project to be completed and available for occupancy in the fourth quarter of 2015. We expect the project to be fully completed in the first quarter of 2016. See Note 7, Notes Payable, for additional information.
Mezzanine Investment
On August 18, 2015, we executed a consent and release agreement for the owner of Alexan Black Mountain to sell the multifamily property that was security for our mezzanine loan investment. The sale of the asset closed on August 19, 2015. We received less than $0.1 million for executing the consent. Our mezzanine loan, which was fully reserved, was retired and the proceeds were recorded as other income.

Discontinued Operations and Real Estate Held for Sale
Effective January 1, 2015, we adopted the provisions of FASB guidance in ASU 2014-08, issued in April 2014, regarding the reporting of discontinued operations. As a result of this adoption, the results of operations and gains on sales of real estate for disposals from January 1, 2015 forward which do not meet the criteria of a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on our operations and financial results will be presented as continuing operations in our consolidated statements of operations. We believe future sales of our individual operating properties will no longer qualify as discontinued operations.
We had no properties classified as held for sale at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Company’s share of net income (loss).
On February 1, 2015, one of the Central Europe Joint Venture properties was sold for €0.7 million or $0.9 million. We recognized our portion of the net gain of less than €0.1 million (or less than $0.1 million) as equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint venture during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The net proceeds to the joint venture, after the repayment of debt and closing costs, were approximately €0.2 million. All U.S. dollars related to this sale are based on the exchange rate in effect on February 1, 2015.
On July 15, 2015, another Central Europe Joint Venture property was sold for €3.9 million or approximately $4.3 million, based on the exchange rate in effect on July 15, 2015. We recognized our portion of the net gain of €0.2 million (or $0.2 million) as equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint venture during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The net proceeds to the joint venture, after the repayment of debt and closing costs, were approximately €1.4 million. All U.S. dollars related to this sale are based on the exchange rate in effect on July 15, 2015. There are 19 properties remaining in the joint venture after this sale.
We will recognize CTA upon the sale of all or substantially all of the assets in our Central Europe Joint Venture, which is our only foreign investment. See Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Foreign Currency Translation.
We evaluate our investment in unconsolidated joint venture at each reporting date. If we believe there is an other than temporary decline in market value, we will record an impairment charge based on these evaluations. We assess potential impairment by comparing our portion of estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated by the joint venture over the life of the joint venture's assets to the carrying amount of the joint venture. In the event that the carrying amount exceeds our portion of estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to adjust the carrying amount of the joint venture to its estimated fair value.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, our Central Europe Joint Venture recorded impairment charges of $2.6 million to bring certain assets to their fair value. The Company's portion of the impairment was $1.2 million, which was recorded in the Company's statement of operations through equity in losses of unconsolidated joint ventures line item. There were no impairment charges recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

30-day LIBOR was 0.19% at September 30, 2015.
Our notes payable balance was $164.5 million at September 30, 2015, as compared to $153.6 million at December 31, 2014, and consisted of new financing and loan assumptions related to our consolidated property acquisitions.
Each of our notes payable is collateralized by one or more of our properties.  At September 30, 2015, our notes payable interest rates ranged from 2.7% to 15%, with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.4%.  Of our $164.5 million in notes payable at September 30, 2015, $42.8 million represented debt subject to variable interest rates.  At September 30, 2015, our notes payable had maturity dates that ranged from January 2016 to February 2018.  We have unconditionally guaranteed payment of the notes payable related to the four loan tranches associated with our Frisco Square investment (the “BHFS Loans”) up to $11.2 million.  The BHFS Loans had an outstanding balance at September 30, 2015 of $30.7 million.
Ablon at Frisco Square Financing
On August 26, 2014, the Ablon Frisco Square Venture obtained a $26.3 million construction loan. The loan incurs interest at 30-day LIBOR plus 2.5% and has a three-year term with two 12-month extensions available. Payments of interest-only are required during the initial three-year term. Equity of $15.8 million must be contributed to the project before any draws under the loan. As of September 30, 2015, the partners have funded $15.8 million of equity (which includes land) towards the construction. We have drawn approximately $12.1 million under the construction loan as of September 30, 2015. Our joint venture partner, or one of its affiliates, has provided the completion guaranty and any other carve-out guaranties for the construction loan.
Northborough Tower Debt Lender Sweep
Our nonrecourse debt secured by Northborough Tower with a balance of $18.7 million at September 30, 2015, matures on January 11, 2016. The sole tenant in Northborough Tower vacated the building during the third quarter of 2015. We expect the tenant to continue to make the lease payments under the terms of its lease through lease expiration in April 2018, and we are working with the tenant to obtain a sub-lessor. Under the terms of our debt, if the building is vacant, the excess cash flow from the rental payments, after payment of operating expenses and debt service, may be swept to the lender to pay down the debt. In November 2015, the lender began sweeping the excess cash flow. We are currently marketing the asset for sale; however, we received offers at less than the debt balance, and there are no assurances that we can sell the asset prior to the debt maturity or that we can sell the asset for an amount greater than the debt balance. If we are unable to sell Northborough Tower prior to the debt maturity we would have to consider all available alternatives, including transferring legal possession of the property to the lender.

8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
We may be exposed to the risk associated with variability of interest rates that might impact our cash flows and the results of operations.  Our hedging strategy of entering into interest rate caps and swaps, therefore, has been to eliminate or reduce, to the extent possible, the volatility of cash flows.
In November 2011, we entered into an interest rate cap agreement related to the debt on our Chase Park Plaza Hotel ("CPPH") and Chase—The Private Residences. We refinanced this debt on August 11, 2014 and the interest rate cap was cancelled. The new loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.95%; therefore, we will not enter into an interest rate cap agreement for this loan.
We had no derivative instruments as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we recorded a reclassification of unrealized loss of less than $0.1 million to interest expense to adjust the carrying amount of the interest rate caps qualifying as non-hedges at September 30, 2014.

9. Commitments and Contingencies
Frisco Square
In connection with our investment in the Frisco Square property, we are responsible, through our wholly owned subsidiaries who hold title to the Frisco Square property, for half of the bond debt service related to the $12.5 million of bonds (the “Bond Obligation”) the City of Frisco issued to fund public improvements within the Frisco Square Management District (the “MMD”).  For each $1 million increase in assessed value for the real property within the MMD above $125 million, the Bond Obligation will be reduced by 0.5% and will be terminated at $225 million of real property values.  The total outstanding Bond Obligation at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $4.6 million and $5.1 million , respectively.
Although, as described above, we are ultimately responsible for half of the bond debt service, the Frisco Square Property Owner’s Association (the “POA”) has the authority to assess its members for various monetary obligations related to the Frisco Square development, including the Bond Obligation, based upon the value of the real property and real property improvements.  We are not the sole member of the POA.  The annual bond debt service assessed by the POA is approximately $0.4 million. For the year ended December 31, 2015, we estimate our annual pro rata share of the expense at approximately $0.1 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we expensed less than $0.1 million related to bond debt service, which is included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss.
We are also obligated to construct a minimum of two parking garages with 720 spaces by February 1, 2018 (the “Parking Obligation”). The City of Frisco has secured the Bond Obligation and the Parking Obligation by placing liens on the vacant land held by our indirect, wholly owned Frisco Square subsidiaries. In the event we sell all or a part of the vacant land, 33% of the net sales proceeds are to be deposited into an escrow account for the benefit of the City of Frisco to secure the Parking Obligation until the amount in the escrow account is $7 million. Currently, the escrow account balance for the Parking Obligation is $1.4 million. The book value of the vacant land is approximately $16 million. On February 4, 2014, the City of Frisco amended the Parking Obligation with respect to its lien on the vacant land. Under the amended Parking Obligation, if we contribute land for the development of a garage (the “Gearbox Garage”) and build two additional garages that provided at least 108 parking spaces in total that are open and free to the public at all times, the City of Frisco will not require any further escrow of proceeds from the sale of the Frisco Square land and will release its lien on the Frisco Square land. On June 13, 2014, we sold 1.62 acres of land to an unrelated third party for a building and parking garage development (the “Gearbox” development) and escrowed $0.6 million of the proceeds from the sale. Concurrently, we contributed 1.66 acres of land for the development of the Gearbox Garage. We agreed to contribute approximately $1.7 million to build 152 additional spaces in the Gearbox Garage. The funds for the 152 spaces and related infrastructure costs were placed in an escrow account in December 2014 and are drawn as construction on the garage is completed. As of September 30, 2015, we have $0.5 million in the escrow account for the Gearbox Garage.
On August 7, 2014, Ablon Frisco Square Venture, a special purpose entity in which we own a 90% limited partnership investment, executed a $33.2 million general construction contract for a 275-unit multifamily development located in Frisco Square. Construction commenced on September 2, 2014. The expected delivery dates of the development are January 2016 for the first two phases and February 2016 for the third phase.
Also, on September 2, 2014, we commenced construction on the public structured garage which was completed and approved for use on November 3, 2015. We anticipate completing the Ablon Frisco Square Venture multifamily garage in the fourth quarter of 2015, which, along with the completed Gearbox Garage and public structured garage, would fulfill our Parking Obligation with the City of Frisco.

10. Related Party Transactions
Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I and certain of its affiliates receive fees and compensation in connection with the acquisition, financing, management, and sale of our assets.
Since our inception, the Advisor or its predecessors have been responsible for managing our day-to-day affairs and for, among other things, identifying and making acquisitions and other investments on our behalf.  Our relationship with the Advisor, including the fees paid by us to the Advisor or the reimbursement of expenses by us for amounts paid, or incurred by the Advisor, on our behalf is governed by an advisory management agreement that has been in place since September 20, 2005 and amended at various times thereafter.  We entered into the Third Amended and Restated Advisory Management Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) effective May 15, 2013 for a term of one-year. When the Advisory Agreement expired on May 15, 2014, we renewed it on the same terms for an additional one-year term with an expiration date of May 15, 2015. We then renewed the Advisory Agreement for additional one-month terms on both May 8, 2015 and June 15, 2015, which extended the Advisory Agreement to July 15, 2015. On July 8, 2015, we entered into the First Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Advisory Management Agreement (the “Amendment”) with the Advisor that renewed the Advisory Agreement for a ten-month term with an expiration date of May 15, 2016. The Amendment amended the Advisory Agreement to (i) limit certain cost reimbursements to the Advisor for administrative services, to be effective January 1, 2015, and (ii) document a waiver of $200,000 of acquisition fees related to the construction of our The Ablon at Frisco Square multifamily development. In all other material respects, the terms of the Advisory Agreement remain unchanged.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I received an asset management fee of 0.575% of the aggregate asset value of acquired real estate and real estate-related assets other than Alexan Black Mountain and Royal Island. The fee is payable monthly in arrears in an amount equal to one-twelfth of 0.575% of the aggregate asset value as of the last day of the month.  For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we incurred approximately $0.6 million of asset management fees. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we incurred $1.7 million of asset management fees.
Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, or its affiliates, receive acquisition and advisory fees of 2.5% of the contract purchase price of each asset for the acquisition, development or construction of real property or 2.5% of the funds advanced in respect of a loan investment. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we incurred acquisition and advisory fees of $0.2 million related to The Ablon at Frisco Square development. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we incurred acquisition and advisory fees of less than $0.1 million related to The Ablon at Frisco Square development. 
Under the Advisory Agreement, the debt financing fee paid to the Advisor for a Loan (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) will be 1% of the loan commitment amount.  Amounts due to the Advisor for a Revised Loan (as defined in the agreement) will be 40 basis points of the loan commitment amount for the first year of any extension (provided the extension is for at least 120 days), an additional 30 basis points for the second year of an extension, and another 30 basis points for the third year of an extension in each case, prorated for any extension period less than a full year.  The maximum debt financing fee for any extension of three or more years is 1% of the loan commitment amount. We did not incur any debt financing fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015. We incurred $0.6 million in debt financing fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 related to the CPPH debt that we refinanced on August 11, 2014.
We reimburse Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I or its affiliates for all expenses paid or incurred by them in connection with the services they provide to us, including direct expenses and the costs of salaries and benefits of persons employed by those entities and performing services for us, subject to the limitation that we will not reimburse for any amount by which our Advisor’s operating expenses (including the asset management fee) at the end of the four fiscal quarters immediately preceding the date reimbursement is sought exceeds the greater of (i) 2% of our average invested assets or (ii) 25% of our net income for that four quarter period other than any additions to reserves for depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves and any gain from the sale of our assets for that period.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, we may reimburse the Advisor for expenses in excess of this limitation if a majority of our independent directors determines that such excess expenses are justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors.  We do not reimburse our Advisor for the salaries and benefits that our Advisor or its affiliates pay to our named executive officers.  For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we incurred costs for administrative services of $0.4 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we incurred costs for administrative services of $1 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

We pay our property manager and affiliate of the Advisor, Behringer Harvard Opportunity Management Services, LLC or its affiliates (collectively, “BH Property Management”), fees for management, leasing, and maintenance supervision of our properties.  Such fees are equal to 4.5% of gross revenues plus leasing commissions based upon the customary leasing commission applicable to the same geographic location of the respective property.  We will pay BH Property Management an oversight fee equal to 0.5% of gross revenues of the property managed if we contract directly with a non-affiliated third-party property manager in respect of the property.  In no event will we pay both a property management fee and an oversight fee to BH Property Management with respect to any particular property.  If we own a property through a joint venture that does not pay BH Property Management directly for its services, we will pay BH Property Management a management fee or oversight fee, as applicable, based only on our economic interest in the property.  We incurred property management fees or oversight fees of approximately $0.2 million and $0.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. We incurred property management fees or oversight fees of $0.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.
At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had a payable to our Advisor and its affiliates of $0.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively. These balances consist of accrued fees, including asset management fees, administrative service expenses, property management fees and other miscellaneous costs payable to Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I and BH Property Management.
We are dependent on Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I and BH Property Management for certain services that are essential to us, including asset disposition decisions, property management and leasing services, and other general administrative responsibilities.  If these companies are unable to provide us with the respective services, we would be required to obtain such services from other sources.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto:
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  These forward-looking statements include discussion and analysis of the financial condition of Behringer Harvard Opportunity REIT I, Inc. and our subsidiaries (which may be referred to herein as the “Company,” “REIT,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), including our ability to rent space on favorable terms, to address our debt maturities and to fund our liquidity requirements, the value of our assets, our anticipated capital expenditures, the amount and timing of anticipated cash distributions to our stockholders, the estimated per share value of our common stock and other matters.  Words such as “may,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “could,” “should” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but reflect the intent, belief or current expectations of our management based on their knowledge and understanding of the business and industry, the economy and other future conditions.  These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and we caution stockholders not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.  Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the 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 filed with the SEC on March 18, 2015, Part II, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in this Quarterly Report, and the factors described below:
market and economic challenges experienced by the U.S. and global economies or real estate industry as a whole and the local economic conditions in the markets in which our properties are located;
the availability of cash flow from operating activities for capital expenditures;
conflicts of interest arising out of our relationships with our advisor and its affiliates;
our ability to retain our executive officers and other key personnel of our advisor, our property manager and their affiliates;
our level of debt and the terms and limitations imposed on us by our debt agreements;
the availability of credit generally, and any failure to refinance or extend our debt as it comes due or a failure to satisfy the conditions and requirements of that debt;
the need to invest additional equity in connection with debt financings as a result of reduced asset values and requirements to reduce overall leverage;
future increases in interest rates;
our ability to raise capital in the future by issuing additional equity or debt securities, selling our assets or otherwise;
impairment charges;
unfavorable changes in laws or regulations impacting our business or our assets; and
factors that could affect our ability to qualify as a real estate investment trust.
Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect our management’s view only as of the date of this Report, and may ultimately prove to be incorrect.  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.  We intend for these forward-looking statements to be covered by the applicable safe harbor provisions created by Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act.
Cautionary Note
The representations, warranties, and covenants made by us in any agreement filed as an exhibit to this report on Form 10-Q are made solely for the benefit of the parties to the agreement, including, in some cases, for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties to the agreement, and should not be deemed to be representations, warranties or covenants to or with any other parties.  Moreover, these representations, warranties or covenants should not be relied upon as accurately describing or reflecting the current state of our affairs.

Executive Overview
We are a Maryland corporation that was formed in November 2004 to invest in and operate commercial real estate or real-estate-related assets located in or outside the United States on an opportunistic and value-add basis.  We conduct substantially all of our business through our operating partnership and its subsidiaries. We are organized and qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.
We are externally managed and advised by Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, a Texas limited liability company formed in June 2007.  Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I is responsible for managing our day-to-day affairs and for identifying and making dispositions on our behalf.
As of September 30, 2015, we wholly owned four properties and consolidated three properties through investments in joint ventures, all of which were consolidated in our condensed consolidated financial statements.  In addition, we have a noncontrolling, unconsolidated ownership interest in an investment in a joint venture consisting of 19 properties that is accounted for using the equity method.  Our investment properties are located in Colorado, Missouri, Texas, the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, the Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovakia. On August 18, 2015, we executed a consent and release agreement for the owner of Alexan Black Mountain to sell the multifamily property that was security for our mezzanine loan investment. The sale of the asset closed on August 19, 2015. We received less than $0.1 million for executing the consent. Our mezzanine loan, which was fully reserved, was retired and the proceeds were recorded as other income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity Demands
Our primary objectives are to focus on the disposition of the properties remaining in our portfolio, while continuing to preserve capital, and sustain and enhance property values. Our ability to continue to execute this plan is contingent on our ability to dispose of our properties in an orderly fashion thus providing needed liquidity to fund our remaining development activities, capital needs at certain properties, and the Company's operations. Our cash balance at September 30, 2015 is $24.2 million.
Our financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business as we proceed through our disposition phase.  As is usual for opportunity-style real estate investment programs, we are structured as a finite-life entity, and have entered the final phase of operations.  This phase includes the selling of our assets, retiring our liabilities, and distributing net proceeds to stockholders.  It is possible that we will invest additional capital in some of our assets in order to position these assets for sale in the normal course of business. We have experienced significant losses and may generate negative cash flows as mortgage note obligations and expenses exceed revenues.  If we are unable to sell a property when we determine to do so as contemplated in our business plan, it could have a significant adverse effect on our cash flows that are necessary to meet our mortgage obligations and to satisfy our other liabilities in the normal course of business.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is, therefore, dependent upon our ability to sell real estate investments, to pay or retire debt as it matures if extensions or new financings are unavailable, and to fund certain ongoing costs of our Company, including our development and operating properties.  Our principal demands for funds for the next twelve months and beyond will be for the payment of costs associated with the lease-up of available space at our operating properties (including leasing commissions, tenant improvements, and capital improvements), certain ongoing costs at our development properties, Company operating expenses, and interest and principal on our outstanding indebtedness.  We expect to fund a portion of these demands by using cash flow from operations of our current investments and borrowings.  Additionally, we will use proceeds from our strategic asset sales.
We continually evaluate our liquidity and ability to fund future operations and debt obligations. (See Note 7, Notes Payable.) Our nonrecourse debt secured by Northborough Tower with a balance of $18.7 million at September 30, 2015, matures on January 11, 2016. The sole tenant in Northborough Tower vacated the building during the third quarter of 2015. We expect the tenant to continue to make the lease payments under the terms of its lease through lease expiration in April 2018, and we are working with the tenant to obtain a sub-lessor. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, 10% of our total revenues, without consideration of tenant contraction or termination rights, were derived from our Northborough Tower office building. Under the terms of our debt, if the building is vacant, the excess cash flow from the rental payments, after payment of operating expenses and debt service, may be swept to the lender to pay down the debt. In November 2015, the lender began sweeping the excess cash flow. We are currently marketing the asset for sale; however, we received offers at less than the debt balance and there are no assurances that we can sell the asset prior to the debt maturity or that we can sell the asset for an amount greater than the debt balance. If we are unable to sell Northborough Tower prior to the debt maturity, we would have to consider all available alternatives, including transferring legal possession of the property to the lender.

25


In addition to our debt obligations, we consider lease expirations at our consolidated office properties and other factors in evaluating our liquidity. Operating leases for our office buildings representing less than 1% and 11% of annualized base rent and rentable square footage (effective annual rent per square foot of $26.14 and $24.16) will expire by the end of 2015 and 2016, respectively.  In the normal course of business, we are pursuing renewals, extensions and new leases.  If we are unable to renew or extend the expiring leases under similar terms or are unable to negotiate new leases, it would negatively impact our liquidity and consequently adversely affect our ability to fund our ongoing operations.  In addition, our portfolio is concentrated in certain geographic regions and industries, and downturns relating generally to those regions or industries may result in defaults by a number of tenants within a short time period.  Any defaults would negatively affect our liquidity and adversely affect our ability to fund our ongoing operations.  In particular, two of our office buildings are located in the Greenspoint submarket in Houston, Texas. Demand for commercial properties in this submarket is weak due to several large blocks of space that became available as large scale users have vacated the submarket. With the uncertainty created from these relocations as well as the current volatility within the energy sector, and the limited number of office building transactions, it is difficult to underwrite commercial assets in this submarket. During the third quarter of 2015, we recorded non-cash impairment charges on our two office buildings located in Houston. See Note 4, Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value, for information on impairment charges recorded in the third quarter of 2015. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, 30% of our total revenues, without consideration of tenant contraction or termination rights, were derived from our office buildings, which are all located in Texas. CPPH, which is located in Missouri, accounted for 58% of our total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Strategic Asset Sales
As previously discussed, we are in our disposition phase. We are actively marketing our assets for sale and anticipate conducting orderly sales of all of our assets over the next two to three years. We may pursue a portfolio sale for some or all of our remaining assets. The economic environment and limited availability of credit to buyers for opportunistic asset classes such as ours could delay or inhibit our ability to dispose of our properties in an orderly manner, or cause us to have to dispose of our properties for lower than anticipated sales prices. There can be no assurance that future dispositions will occur as planned, or if they occur, that they will help us to meet our liquidity demands.  Once we anticipate selling all or substantially all of our assets, we will seek stockholder approval prior to liquidating our entire portfolio.
Debt Financings
One of our principal short-term and long-term liquidity requirements is the repayment of maturing debt.  The following table provides information with respect to the contractual maturities and scheduled principal repayments of our indebtedness as of September 30, 2015. Interest payments on variable rate debt are based on rates in effect as of September 30, 2015. The table does not represent any extension options (in thousands):

________________________________
(1)  Does not include unamortized premium related to debt we assumed on our acquisition of Northborough Tower with a balance of less than $0.1 million at September 30, 2015.
Our nonrecourse debt secured by Northborough Tower matures on January 11, 2016. At September 30, 2015, the outstanding balance of the debt was $18.7 million. See additional information regarding this loan above under Liquidity Demands.
Our loan agreements stipulate that we comply with certain reporting and financial covenants.  These covenants include, among other things, maintaining minimum debt service coverage ratios, loan to value ratios and liquidity.  As of September 30, 2015, we believe we were in compliance with the debt covenants under our loan agreements.

26


We currently expect to use funds generated by our operating properties, additional borrowings, and proceeds from the disposition of properties to continue making our scheduled debt service payments until the maturity dates of the loans are extended or the loans are refinanced or completely paid off.  However, there is no guarantee that we will be able to refinance our borrowings with more or less favorable terms or extend the maturity dates of such loans.  To the extent we are unable to reach agreeable terms with respect to extensions or refinancings, we may not have the cash necessary to repay our debt as it matures, which could result in an event of default that could allow lenders to foreclose on the property in satisfaction of the debt, seek repayment of the full amount of the debt outstanding from us or pursue other remedies.
Each of our loans is secured by one or more of our properties. At September 30, 2015, interest rates on our notes payable ranged from 2.7% to 15%, with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.4%. Generally, our notes payable mature at approximately two to nine years from origination and require payments of interest-only for approximately two to five years, with all principal and interest due at maturity. Notes payable associated with our Northborough Tower, Frisco Square, Las Colinas Commons, and Northpoint Central investments require monthly payments of principal and interest. At September 30, 2015, our notes payable had maturity dates that ranged from January 2016 to February 2018.
Our ability to fund our liquidity requirements is expected to come from cash and cash equivalents (which total $24.2 million on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2015), operating cash flow from properties, new borrowings and proceeds from the disposition of our properties. As necessary, we may seek alternative sources of financing, including using the proceeds from the sale of our properties to achieve our investment objectives.
As of September 30, 2015, restricted cash on the condensed consolidated balance sheet of $9.5 million included amounts set aside related to certain operating properties for tenant improvements and commission reserves, tax reserves, maintenance and capital expenditures reserves, and other amounts as may be required by our lenders.
As the overall cost of borrowing increases, either by increases in the index rates or by increases in lender spreads, we will need to factor such increases into the economics of our property developments. This may result in our investment operations generating lower overall economic returns and a reduced level of cash flow.

Results of Operations
As of September 30, 2015 and 2014, we were invested in eight assets, seven of which were consolidated (four of those were wholly owned and three properties consolidated through investments in joint ventures). In addition, we have an unconsolidated ownership interest in a joint venture consisting of 19 properties at September 30, 2015 and 21 properties at September 30, 2014 that are accounted for using the equity method. Our investment properties are located in Colorado, Missouri, Texas, the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, the Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovakia. On August 18, 2015, we executed a consent and release agreement for the owner of Alexan Black Mountain to sell the multifamily property that was security for our mezzanine loan investment. The sale of the asset closed on August 19, 2015. We received less than $0.1 million for executing the consent. Our mezzanine loan, which was fully reserved, was retired and the proceeds were recorded as other income.

Revenues.  Overall, our total revenues remained fairly constant at approximately $14.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014.
Property operating expenses.  Property operating expenses remained fairly constant at approximately $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and were composed of operating expenses from our consolidated properties.
Hotel operating expenses.  Hotel operating expenses were approximately $7.4 million and $6.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, for an increase of approximately $0.5 million. Hotel operating expenses at CPPH increased $0.4 million and hotel operating expenses at The Lodge & Spa at Cordillera increased $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. The increase in hotel operating expenses for CPPH was primarily due to an increase in food and beverage service expense.
Bad debt expense (recovery).  We had bad debt recoveries of less than $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared to bad debt expense of less than $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2014.

28


Interest expense.  Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was approximately $2 million and $2.9 million, respectively. The decrease of approximately $0.9 million in interest expense was primarily due to amortization of $0.6 million of deferred borrowing costs during the third quarter of 2014 that did not recur in 2015. In addition, during the third quarter of 2015, we capitalized interest of $0.3 million related to construction of a 275-unit multifamily project at The Ablon at Frisco Square and construction of a public garage at Frisco Square. Construction on the development and the public garage began in September 2014.
Real Estate Taxes. Real estate taxes were $0.8 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The $0.3 million decrease was primarily due to reimbursement of $0.2 million received during the three months ended September 30, 2015 for the true-up of 2013 and 2014 common area maintenance at our Northpoint Central office building.
Impairment charge. During the third quarter of 2015, we recorded non-cash impairment charges of approximately $11.6 million. We recorded non-cash impairment charges of $2.1 million and $2.7 million to reduce the carrying values of our Northborough Tower and Northpoint Central office buildings, respectively, to their estimated fair values. With the continued deterioration in the Greenspoint submarket in Houston, Texas where Northborough Tower and Northpoint Central are located, as well as the current volatility within the energy sector, it is difficult to underwrite commercial assets in this submarket. In addition, the sole tenant of Northborough Tower vacated the office building in the third quarter of 2015. During the third quarter of 2015, we also recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $6.8 million to reduce the carrying value of our Frisco Square land to its estimated fair value based on an indication of a change in market conditions for land development. We did not record any impairment charges during the third quarter of 2014.
Property management fees.  Property management fees remained constant at $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.
Asset management fees.  Asset management fees remained constant at approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.
General and administrative.  General and administrative expense remained constant at $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization were $4.4 million and $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The $1.3 million increase was primarily due to accelerated depreciation of $1 million for Northborough Tower tenant improvements and accelerated amortization of $0.5 million for Northborough Tower lease intangibles recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2015. The sole tenant of Northborough Tower vacated the office building in the third quarter of 2015.
Loss on early extinguishment of debt. On August 11, 2014, we refinanced the CPPH debt with a new lender for $62.5 million in proceeds. A portion of the proceeds from the new loan were used to repay the old debt, which had a balance of approximately $46.5 million, and closing costs. We recognized approximately $0.2 million loss on early extinguishment of debt in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the third quarter of 2014 related to unamortized deferred borrowing costs on the old debt. We had no losses on early extinguishment of debt during the third quarter of 2015.
Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated joint venture.  Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated joint venture were losses of $1 million and earnings of $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, our Central Europe Joint Venture recorded impairment charges of $2.6 million to bring certain assets to their fair value. The Company's portion of the impairment was $1.2 million, which was recorded in the Company's statement of operations through the equity in losses of unconsolidated joint ventures line item. There were no impairment charges recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2014. In addition, on July 15, 2015, one of the Central Europe Joint Venture properties was sold and we recorded our portion of the gain on sale, which was $0.2 million. On August 7, 2014, one of the Central Europe Joint Venture properties was sold, and we recorded our portion of the gain on sale, which totaled $0.2 million.

Continuing Operations
Revenues.  Overall, our total revenues decreased by approximately $0.3 million to $42 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.  The change in revenues was primarily due to:
Rental revenue decreased $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to the same period of 2014. During the first nine months of 2015, we received $0.4 million for the successful appeal of 2013 and 2014 real estate taxes for our Northborough Tower office building. We reimbursed the funds to the tenant, which resulted in a decrease in rental revenue of $0.4 million. (The receipt of the $0.4 million resulted in a credit to real estate tax expense. See “Real Estate Taxes” below.) In addition, rental revenue at Northpoint Central decreased $0.1 million. These decreases in rental revenue were partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in rental revenue at Frisco Square during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Hotel revenue decreased $0.2 million to $27 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Hotel revenue for CPPH increased approximately $0.1 million. Room revenue at CPPH increased $0.3 million, or 2%, with a 1% increase in occupancy period-over-period. Food and beverage revenue at CPPH increased $0.2 million while other income decreased $0.3 million. Hotel revenue at The Lodge & Spa at Cordillera decreased $0.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to the same period of 2014 due primarily to a 3% decrease in occupancy.

30


Property operating expenses.  Property operating expenses were approximately $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of approximately $0.2 million, and were composed of operating expenses from our consolidated properties.
Hotel operating expenses.  Hotel operating expenses were approximately $20.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $20 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, for an increase of $0.8 million. Hotel operating expenses at CPPH increased $0.7 million period-over-period primarily due to an increase in food and beverage service expense.
Bad debt expense (recovery).  Bad debt expense (recovery) for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was an expense of less than $0.1 million compared to a recovery of approximately $0.1 million for the same period of 2014.
Condominium Inventory Impairment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded a non-cash impairment of $0.6 million associated with our one remaining condominium unit at Chase — The Private Residences. This impairment was based on current market information and our decision to dispose of the asset in the nearer term. We did not record any impairments on our condominium unit at Chase - The Private Residences during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Interest expense.  Interest expense was approximately $6.2 million and $7.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The $1.6 million decrease in interest expense was primarily due to amortization of $0.6 million of deferred borrowing costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 that did not recur in 2015. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we capitalized interest of $0.6 million related to construction of a 275-unit multifamily project at The Ablon at Frisco Square and construction of a public garage at Frisco Square. Construction on the development and the public garage began in September 2014.
Real Estate Taxes. Real estate taxes were approximately $2.4 million and $3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, for a decrease of approximately $0.6 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, real estate tax expense decreased $0.4 million at Northborough Tower due to the receipt of funds from taxing authorities for a successful appeal of the 2013 and 2014 real estate taxes. (We also recorded a charge of $0.4 million in rental revenue for the corresponding reimbursement of real estate taxes paid to the tenant.)
Impairment charge. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded non-cash impairment charges of approximately $11.6 million. We recorded non-cash impairment charges of $2.1 million and $2.7 million to reduce the carrying values of our Northborough Tower and Northpoint Central office buildings, respectively, to their estimated fair values. With the continued deterioration in the Greenspoint submarket in Houston, Texas where Northborough Tower and Northpoint Central are located, as well as the current volatility within the energy sector, it is difficult to underwrite commercial assets in this submarket. In addition, the sole tenant of Northborough Tower vacated the office building in the third quarter of 2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we also recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $6.8 million to reduce the carrying value of our Frisco Square land to its estimated fair value based on an indication of a change in market conditions for land development. In addition, we recorded a $0.6 million non-cash impairment charge on our one remaining condominium unit at Chase — The Private Residences during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. See above "Condominium Inventory Impairment." We did not record any impairment charges during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Property management fees.  Property management fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were approximately $1.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively.
Asset management fees.  Asset management fees remained constant at $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.
General and administrative.  General and administrative expense was $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, a decrease of $0.9 million compared to the expense for the same period in 2014. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in legal expense of $0.5 million and $0.3 million related to our CPPH litigation and fund level strategic matters, respectively.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization were approximately $10.6 million and $9.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The $1.1 million increase was primarily due to accelerated depreciation of $1 million for Northborough Tower tenant improvements and accelerated amortization of $0.5 million for Northborough Tower lease intangibles recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The sole tenant of Northborough Tower vacated the office building in the third quarter of 2015.

31


Loss on early extinguishment of debt. On August 11, 2014, we refinanced the CPPH debt with a new lender for $62.5 million in proceeds. A portion of the proceeds from the new loan were used to repay the old debt, which had a balance of approximately $46.5 million, and closing costs. We recognized approximately $0.2 million loss on early extinguishment of debt in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 related to unamortized deferred borrowing costs on the old debt. We had no losses on early extinguishment of debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Other income, net. We had no other income during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Other income was $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. In May 2014, a lot option agreement at Royal Island expired. We recognized $0.8 million in other income related to the expiration of the lot option.
Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated joint venture.  Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated joint venture was losses of $1.2 million and earnings of $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, our Central Europe Joint Venture recorded impairment charges of $2.6 million to bring certain assets to their fair value. The Company's portion of the impairment was $1.2 million, which was recorded in the Company's statement of operations through the equity in losses of unconsolidated joint venture line item. There were no impairment charges recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. In addition, one of the Central Europe Joint Venture properties was sold on February 1, 2015 and one on July 15, 2015, and we recorded our portion of the gains on sale which was less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. On August 7, 2014, one of the Central Europe Joint Venture properties was sold, and we recorded our portion of the gain on sale which totaled $0.2 million.
Gain on sale of real estate. We had no sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. On June 13, 2014, we sold 1.62 acres of land at our Frisco Square development to an unrelated third party for approximately $1.8 million. We recorded a $0.5 million gain on sale of real estate.
Cash Flow Analysis
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, net cash provided by operating activities was $3.9 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $0.5 million for the same period in 2014. The primary reason for the increase in cash flow from operating activities was the change in working capital, including the timing of receipts on accounts receivable and payments of accrued liabilities.
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $26.5 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $7.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The difference is primarily a result of an increase in capital expenditures. We had capital expenditures totaling $25.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2014. The increase was primarily due to our 275-unit multifamily development located in Frisco Square on which we commenced construction in September 2014.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was approximately $11.9 million and $14.3 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the joint venture drew approximately $12 million under the Ablon Frisco Square Venture construction loan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we received proceeds of $62.5 million on the refinance of the CPPH debt with a new lender on August 11, 2014, partially offset by the repayment of the old CPPH debt, which had a balance of approximately $46.5 million.
Funds from Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We use FFO as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) in the April 2002 “White Paper of Funds From Operations” which is net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, and gains (or losses) from sales of property and impairments of depreciable real estate (including impairments of investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and partnerships which resulted from measurable decreases in the fair value of the depreciable real estate held by the joint venture or partnership), plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures, subsidiaries, and noncontrolling interests as one measure to evaluate our operating performance.
Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. As a result, our management believes that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance.

32


We believe that FFO is helpful to investors and our management as a measure of operating performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, impairments of depreciable assets, and extraordinary items, and as a result, when compared year to year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which is not immediately apparent from net income.
FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net loss, as an indication of our liquidity, nor as an indication of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions and should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements. Additionally, the exclusion of impairments limits the usefulness of FFO as a historical operating performance measure since an impairment charge indicates that operating performance has been permanently affected. FFO is not a useful measure in evaluating net asset value because impairments are taken into account in determining net asset value but not in determining FFO. Our FFO, as presented, may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs that do not define these terms in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the definition differently.
Our calculation of FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 is presented below (shares and $ in thousands, except per share amounts):

(1)
Includes impairment of our investments which resulted from a measurable decrease in the fair value of the depreciable real estate held by the joint venture or partnership. In the third quarter of 2015, we recorded non-cash impairment charges of $6.8 million for our Frisco Square land, $2.1 million for Northborough Tower, and $2.7 million for Northpoint Central. In addition, the impairment charge for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 includes a $1.2 million impairment charge for our unconsolidated Central Europe Joint Venture. We recorded a $0.6 million impairment for our one remaining condominium unit at Chase — The Private Residences in the second quarter of 2015.
(2)  Includes our consolidated depreciation and amortization expense, as well as our pro rata share of those unconsolidated investments which we account for under the equity method of accounting and the noncontrolling interest adjustment for the third-party partners' share.
Cash flows generated from FFO may be used to fund all or a portion of certain capitalizable items that are excluded from FFO, such as capital expenditures and payments of principal on debt, each of which may impact the amount of cash available for future distributions to our stockholders.
Distributions
Distributions are authorized at the discretion of our board of directors based on its analysis of our forthcoming cash needs, earnings, cash flow, anticipated cash flow, capital expenditure requirements, cash on hand, general financial condition and other factors that our board deems relevant. The board's decision will be influenced, in substantial part, by its obligation to ensure that we maintain our status as a REIT. In connection with entering our disposition phase, on March 28, 2011, our board of directors discontinued regular quarterly distributions. Any future distributions will be based on available cash after weighing operational needs.
Historically, distributions paid to stockholders have been funded through various sources, including cash flow from operating activities, proceeds raised as part of our initial public offering, reinvestment through our distribution reinvestment plan and/or additional borrowings. We had no distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. 

33


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.  The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  We evaluate these estimates, including investment impairment, on a regular basis.  These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Our critical accounting policies and estimates have not changed significantly from the discussion found in the Management Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 18, 2015.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Interest Rate Risk
We may be exposed to interest rate changes, primarily as a result of long-term variable rate debt used to acquire properties and make loans and other permitted investments.  Our management’s objectives, with regard to interest rate risks, are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs.  To achieve these objectives, we will borrow primarily at fixed rates or variable rates with the lowest margins available and in some cases, with the ability to convert variable rates to fixed rates.  With regard to variable rate financing, we will assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities.  We may enter into derivative financial instruments such as options, forwards, interest rate swaps, caps, or floors to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument or to effectively lock the interest rate portion of our variable rate debt.  Of our $164.5 million in notes payable, at September 30, 2015, $42.8 million represented debt subject to variable interest rates.  If our variable interest rates increased 100 basis points, we estimate that total annual interest cost, including interest expensed and interest capitalized, would increase by $0.4 million.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
At September 30, 2015, we own an approximate 47% interest in a joint venture consisting of 19 properties in the Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovakia that holds $5.4 million in local currency-denominated accounts at European financial institutions.  As the cash is held in the same currency as the real estate assets and related loans, we believe that we are not materially exposed to any significant foreign currency fluctuations related to these accounts as it relates to ongoing property operations.  Additionally, we hold $0.9 million in a Euro-denominated account in a United States financial institution.  Material movements in the exchange rate of Euros could materially impact distributions from our foreign investments.
Inflation
The real estate market has not been affected significantly by inflation in the past several years due to the relatively low inflation rate. However, we include provisions in the majority of our tenant leases that would protect us from the impact of inflation. These provisions include reimbursement billings for common area maintenance charges, real estate tax and insurance reimbursements on a per square foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses above a certain per square foot allowance.

34


Item 4.         Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated, as of September 30, 2015, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) using the criteria established in Internal Control - New Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2015, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in this report is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
We believe, however, that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, within a company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are not party to, and none of our properties are subject to, any material pending legal proceedings.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the risk discussed below, please see the risks discussed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
The estimated per share value of our common stock does not take into account certain costs associated with liquidating our portfolio or how developments after the valuation date related to individual assets, the financial or real estate markets, or other events may have affected the value of our portfolio.
On November 10, 2014, our board of directors met and established an estimated per share value of our common stock as of October 31, 2014 of $3.58. The value per share was based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, all as of September 30, 2014. The estimated per share value did not take into account disposition costs and other expenses that would be necessary to realize the value of the assets nor did the estimated value per share include the liquidation costs of the Company, all of which may be significant and would reduce the amount a stockholder would receive if we liquidated our assets. Further, the estimated value does not take into account how developments after November 10, 2014 have affected the value of our investments. The value of our shares will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to individual assets in our portfolio and in response to fluctuations in the real estate and finance markets. As such, the estimated value per share does not take into account developments in our portfolio since November 10, 2014, including:
asset sales and potential future asset sales at values different from those determined in our valuation as well as any impairment charges related to these or other assets as a result of changes in the expected hold period, or the estimated cash flows for or future expenses related to these assets, including the impairments recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 with respect to our real estate investments;
any increases in value of any of our investments;
any disruptions in the real estate and financial markets or general economic conditions; and
any inability to meet our existing debt service obligations, or to repay or refinance such obligations on attractive terms or at all at or prior to maturity.
Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Unregistered Sales of Common Stock
During the period covered by this quarterly report, we did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Share Redemption Program
In February 2006, our board of directors authorized a share redemption program for stockholders who held their shares for more than one year.  Under the program, our board reserved the right in its sole discretion at any time, and from time to time, to (1) waive the one-year holding period in the event of the death, disability or bankruptcy of a stockholder or other exigent circumstances, (2) reject any request for redemption, (3) change the purchase price for redemptions, or (4) terminate, suspend or amend the share redemption program.
Our board of directors has not considered requests for redemptions ("Ordinary Redemptions") for reasons other than in the event of death, disability or need for long-term care since March 2009 when the board determined not to accept, and to suspend until further notice, Ordinary Redemptions.
In January 2011, the board completely suspended the redemption program and has not considered any redemption requests since 2010.  Therefore, we did not redeem any shares of our common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
We have not presented information regarding submitted and unfulfilled redemptions as our share redemption program has been completely suspended since the first quarter of 2011 and we believe many stockholders who may otherwise desire to have their shares redeemed have not submitted a request due to the program’s suspension.

36


 
Any redemption requests submitted while the program is suspended will be returned to investors and must be resubmitted upon resumption of the share redemption program.  As we have entered our disposition phase, we do not expect to resume our share redemption program; however, if the share redemption program is resumed, we will give all stockholders notice that we are resuming redemptions, so that all stockholders will have an equal opportunity to submit shares for redemption.  Upon resumption of the program, any redemption requests will be honored pro rata among all requests received based on funds available and will not be honored on a first come, first served basis.
