EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report (the "Report") combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2018 of both Duke Realty Corporation and Duke Realty Limited Partnership. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to "Duke Realty Corporation" or the "General Partner" mean Duke Realty Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, and references to the "Partnership" mean Duke Realty Limited Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries. The terms the "Company," "we," "us" and "our" refer to the General Partner and the Partnership, collectively, and those entities owned or controlled by the General Partner and/or the Partnership.
Duke Realty Corporation is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") and is the sole general partner of the Partnership, owning 99.1% of the common partnership interests of the Partnership ("General Partner Units") as of June 30, 2018. The remaining 0.9% of the common partnership interests ("Limited Partner Units" and, together with the General Partner Units, the "Common Units") are owned by limited partners. As the sole general partner of the Partnership, the General Partner has full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in the day-to-day management and control of the Partnership.
The General Partner and the Partnership are operated as one enterprise. The management of the General Partner consists of the same members as the management of the Partnership. As the sole general partner with control of the Partnership, the General Partner consolidates the Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the General Partner does not have any significant assets other than its investment in the Partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the General Partner and the Partnership are substantially the same.
We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the General Partner and the Partnership into this single report results in the following benefits:
• | enhances investors' understanding of the General Partner and the Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business; |
• | eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation of information since a substantial portion of the Company's disclosure applies to both the General Partner and the Partnership; and |
• | creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports. |
We believe it is important to understand the few differences between the General Partner and the Partnership in the context of how we operate as an interrelated consolidated company. The General Partner's only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests in the Partnership. As a result, the General Partner does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Partnership and issuing public equity from time to time. The General Partner does not issue any indebtedness, but does guarantee some of the unsecured debt of the Partnership. The Partnership holds substantially all the assets of the business, directly or indirectly, and holds the ownership interests related to certain of the Company's investments. The Partnership conducts the operations of the business and has no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from equity issuances by the General Partner, which are contributed to the Partnership in exchange for General Partner Units or Preferred Units, the Partnership generates the capital required by the business through its operations, its incurrence of indebtedness and the issuance of Limited Partner Units to third parties.
Noncontrolling interests, shareholders' equity and partners' capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the General Partner and those of the Partnership. The noncontrolling interests in the Partnership's financial statements include the interests in consolidated investees not wholly owned by the Partnership. The noncontrolling interests in the General Partner's financial statements include the same noncontrolling interests at the Partnership level, as well as the common limited partnership interests in the Partnership, which are accounted for as partners' capital by the Partnership.
In order to highlight the differences between the General Partner and the Partnership, there are separate sections in this report, as applicable, that separately discuss the General Partner and the Partnership, including separate financial statements and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications. In the sections that combine disclosure of the General Partner and the Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the collective Company.

DUKE REALTY CORPORATION AND DUKE REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. General Basis of Presentation
The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the General Partner and the Partnership. The 2017 year-end consolidated balance sheet data included in this Report was derived from the audited financial statements in the combined Annual Report on Form 10-K of the General Partner and the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2017 (the "2017 Annual Report"), but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included herein and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2017 Annual Report.
The General Partner was formed in 1985, and we believe that it qualifies as a REIT under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Partnership was formed on October 4, 1993, when the General Partner contributed all of its properties and related assets and liabilities, together with the net proceeds from an offering of additional shares of its common stock, to the Partnership. Simultaneously, the Partnership completed the acquisition of Duke Associates, a full-service commercial real estate firm operating in the Midwest whose operations began in 1972.
The General Partner is the sole general partner of the Partnership, owning approximately 99.1% of the Common Units at June 30, 2018. The remaining 0.9% of the Common Units are owned by limited partners. As the sole general partner of the Partnership, the General Partner has full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in the day-to-day management and control of the Partnership. The General Partner and the Partnership are operated as one enterprise. The management of the General Partner consists of the same members as the management of the Partnership. As the sole general partner with control of the Partnership, the General Partner consolidates the Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the General Partner does not have any significant assets other than its investment in the Partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the General Partner and the Partnership are substantially the same.
Limited partners have the right to redeem their Limited Partner Units, subject to certain restrictions. Pursuant to the Fifth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended (the "Partnership Agreement"), the General Partner is obligated to redeem the Limited Partner Units in shares of its common stock, unless it determines in its reasonable discretion that the issuance of shares of its common stock could cause it to fail to qualify as a REIT. Each Limited Partner Unit shall be redeemed for one share of the General Partner's common stock, or, in the event that the issuance of shares could cause the General Partner to fail to qualify as a REIT, cash equal to the fair market value of one share of the General Partner's common stock at the time of redemption, in each case, subject to certain adjustments described in the Partnership Agreement. The Limited Partner Units are not required, per the terms of the Partnership Agreement, to be redeemed in registered shares of the General Partner.
As of June 30, 2018, we owned and operated a portfolio primarily consisting of industrial properties and provided real estate services to third-party owners. Substantially all of our Rental Operations (see Note 9) are conducted through the Partnership. We conduct our Service Operations (see Note 9) through Duke Realty Services, LLC, Duke Realty Services Limited Partnership and Duke Construction Limited Partnership ("DCLP"), which are consolidated entities that are 100% owned by a combination of the General Partner and the Partnership. DCLP is owned through a taxable REIT subsidiary. The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries.

2. New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Revenue Recognition and De-recognition of Non-Financial Assets
On January 1, 2018, we concurrently adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606") and ASC 610-20, Other Income: Gains and Losses from the De-recognition of Non-financial Assets ("ASC 610-20") using a modified retrospective ("cumulative effect") method of adoption. ASC 606 has superseded nearly all existing GAAP revenue recognition guidance, although its scope excludes lease contracts, which represent our primary source of revenue. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it satisfies performance obligations, by transferring promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for fulfilling those performance obligations.
General Contractor and Service Fee Revenue
Beginning with the January 1, 2018 adoption date, general contractor and service fee revenues, as presented on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, are accounted for within the scope of ASC 606. General contractor and service fee revenues are comprised primarily of construction and development related revenues earned from third parties while acting in capacity of a developer, as a general contractor or a construction manager. There are other ancillary streams of revenue included in general contractor and service fee revenues (see Note 9), such as management fees earned from unconsolidated joint ventures, which are not significant. Opening and closing balances of construction receivables are presented separately on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Over billed construction receivables totaled $902,000 and $276,000 at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. We generally do not have any contract assets associated with our construction arrangements.
Our construction arrangements are typically structured with only one performance obligation, which generally represents either an obligation to construct a new building or to construct fixtures in an existing building, and these single performance obligations are satisfied over time as construction progresses. We recognize revenue as we satisfy such performance obligations using the percentage of completion method, which is an input method allowed under ASC 606. Using this method, profits are recorded based on our estimates of the percentage of completion of individual contracts, commencing when the work performed under the contracts reaches a point where the final costs can be estimated with reasonable accuracy. The percentage of completion estimates are based on a comparison of the contract expenditures incurred to the estimated final costs. We believe the percentage of completion method is a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods and services as changes in job performance and estimated profitability, which result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined, have not historically been significant. We typically receive regular progress payments on the majority of our construction arrangements and such arrangements generally have an original duration of less than one year.
As the result of the relatively short duration of our construction arrangements, we have elected to apply the optional disclosure exemptions, included in ASC 606, related to our remaining performance obligations for our in-process construction projects, for which any future variable consideration is not material.
De-Recognition of Non-Financial Assets
ASC 610-20 provides guidance on how entities recognize sales, including partial sales, of non-financial assets (and in-substance non-financial assets) to non-customers. ASC 606 includes guidance governing the sale of non-financial assets with customers, while sales of non-financial assets to non-customers are governed by ASC 610-20. The only difference in the treatment of sales to customers and non-customers is the presentation in the Consolidated Statements of Operations (revenue and expense is reported when the sale is to a customer and net gain or loss is reported when the sale is to a non-customer). Based on the nature of our business, we have concluded that our property sales represent transactions with non-customers. In the typical course of our business, sales of non-financial assets represent only one performance obligation and are recognized when an enforceable contract is in place, collectability is ensured and control is transferred to the buyer.
12
ASC 610-20 also requires the seller to recognize a full gain or loss in a partial sale of non-financial assets, to the extent control is not retained. Any noncontrolling interest retained by the seller would, accordingly, be measured at fair value. We have primarily disposed of property and land in all cash transactions with no contingencies and no future involvement in the operations, and therefore, the adoption of ASC 610-20 has not significantly impacted the recognition of property and land sales.
There was no cumulative adjustment recognized to beginning retained earnings as of January 1, 2018 as the result of adopting ASC 606 and ASC 610-20.
Restricted Cash
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash ("ASU 2016-18"). ASU 2016-18 requires entities to show the changes in the total of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. As a result, entities will no longer present transfers between cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2018, on a retrospective basis, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (in thousands):
June 30, 2018 | December 31, 2017 | ||||||
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 86,339 | $ | 67,562 | |||
Restricted cash held in escrow for like-kind exchange | 146,110 | 116,405 | |||||
Restricted cash included in other escrow deposits and other assets | 10,193 | 9,660 | |||||
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows | $ | 242,642 | $ | 193,627 |
Restricted cash held in escrow for like-kind exchange on the Consolidated Balance Sheets includes cash received from the property dispositions but restricted only for qualifying like-kind exchange transactions.
Statement of Cash Flows
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows ("ASU 2016-15"). ASU 2016-15 clarifies how entities should classify certain cash receipts and cash payments on the statement of cash flows and how the predominance principle should be applied when cash receipts and cash payments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2018, on a retrospective basis, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases ("ASU 2016-02"), which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). ASU 2016-02 supersedes existing leasing standards.
For lessors, the accounting under ASU 2016-02 will remain largely unchanged from current GAAP; however ASU 2016-02 requires that lessors expense certain initial direct costs, which are capitalizable under existing leasing standards, as incurred. ASU 2016-02 also specifies that payments for certain lease-related services, which are often included in lease agreements, represent "non-lease" components that will become subject to the guidance in ASC 606, when ASU 2016-02 becomes effective. The FASB recently clarified that only new or modified leases subsequent to adoption of ASU 2016-02 will require different accounting for "non-lease" components under the guidance in ASC 606. Additionally, on March 28, 2018 the FASB tentatively approved amendments to ASU
13
2016-02 (the "Approved Amendments"), which, if ultimately finalized as an amendment to ASU 2016-02, will allow lessors an optional election to not separate "non-lease" components from the related lease components. This election would be contingent upon certain conditions being met, including a requirement that separating the "non-lease" components would not result in a change in the timing and pattern of the revenue recognition.
ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase of the leased asset by the lessee. This classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of classification. ASU 2016-02 will impact the accounting and disclosure requirements for ground leases, and other operating leases, where we are the lessee.
ASU 2016-02 will be effective for us on January 1, 2019 under the modified retrospective approach, with early adoption permitted.
A set of practical expedients for implementation, which must be elected as a package and for all leases, may also be elected. These practical expedients include (i) relief from re-assessing whether an expired or existing contract meets the definition of a lease, (ii) relief from re-assessing the classification of expired or existing leases at the adoption date and (iii) allowing previously capitalized initial direct leasing costs to continue to be amortized. In addition to these practical expedients, the Approved Amendments also include an option that would allow lessors to use the effective date of ASU 2016-02 as the date of initial application, without restating comparative periods, and to recognize a cumulative effect adjustment as of the effective date. We are currently assessing the method of adoption and the impact that ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements but have tentatively concluded that we will apply the practical expedients as well as the optional relief provided by the Approved Amendments, should they be finalized.
3. Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for 2017 have been reclassified to conform to the 2018 consolidated financial statement presentation.
4. Variable Interest Entities
Partnership
Due to the fact that the Limited Partners do not have kick out rights, or substantive participating rights, the Partnership is a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Because the General Partner holds majority ownership and exercises control over every aspect of the Partnership's operations, the General Partner has been determined as the primary beneficiary and, therefore, consolidates the Partnership.
The assets and liabilities of the General Partner and the Partnership are substantially the same, as the General Partner does not have any significant assets other than its investment in the Partnership. All of the Company's debt is an obligation of the Partnership.
Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
We have equity interests in unconsolidated joint ventures that primarily own and operate rental properties or hold land for development. We consolidate those joint ventures that are considered to be VIEs where we are the primary beneficiary. We analyze our investments in joint ventures to determine if the joint venture is considered a VIE and would require consolidation. We (i) evaluate the sufficiency of the total equity investment at risk, (ii) review the voting rights and decision-making authority of the equity investment holders as a group and whether there are limited partners (or similar owning entities) that lack substantive participating or kick out rights and (iii) establish whether or not activities within the venture are on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights in making this VIE determination.
14
To the extent that we own interests in a VIE and we (i) are the sole entity that has the power to direct the activities of the VIE and (ii) have the obligation or rights to absorb the VIE's losses or receive its benefits, then we would be determined to be the primary beneficiary and would consolidate the VIE. To the extent we own interests in a VIE, then at each reporting period, we re-assess our conclusions as to which, if any, party within the VIE is considered the primary beneficiary. Consolidated joint ventures that are VIEs are not significant in any period presented in these consolidated financial statements.
To the extent that our joint ventures do not qualify as VIEs, they are consolidated if we control them through majority ownership interests or if we are the managing entity (general partner or managing member) and the other partner does not have substantive participating rights. Control is further demonstrated by our ability to unilaterally make significant operating decisions, refinance debt and sell the assets of the joint venture without the consent of the non-managing entity and the inability of the non-managing entity to remove us from our role as the managing entity. Consolidated joint ventures that are not VIEs are not significant in any period presented in these consolidated financial statements.
There were no unconsolidated joint ventures, in which we have any recognized assets or liabilities or have retained any economic exposure to loss at June 30, 2018, that met the criteria to be considered VIEs. Our maximum loss exposure for guarantees of unconsolidated joint venture indebtedness, none of which relate to VIEs, totaled $115.0 million at June 30, 2018.
5. Acquisitions and Dispositions
Acquisitions and dispositions for the periods presented were completed in accordance with our strategy to reposition our investment concentration among the product types and markets in which we operate and to increase our overall investments in quality industrial projects. With the exception of certain properties that have been sold or classified as held-for-sale, the results of operations for all acquired properties have been included in continuing operations within our consolidated financial statements since their respective dates of acquisition. Transaction costs related to asset acquisitions are capitalized and transaction costs related to business combinations and dispositions are expensed.
Acquisitions
We paid cash of $208.9 million and $237.5 million for asset acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
We acquired six properties during the six months ended June 30, 2018. We determined that these six properties did not meet the definition of a business and, accordingly, we accounted for them as asset acquisitions as opposed to business combinations.
The following table summarizes amounts recognized for each major class of assets and liability (in thousands) for these acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2018:
Real estate assets | $ | 191,551 | |
Lease related intangible assets | 18,566 | ||
Total acquired assets | 210,117 | ||
Below market lease liability | 504 | ||
Fair value of acquired net assets | $ | 209,613 |
The leases in the acquired properties had a weighted average remaining life at acquisition of approximately 12.3 years.

Fair Value Measurements
We determine the fair value of the individual components of real estate asset acquisitions primarily through calculating the "as-if vacant" value of a building, using an income approach, which relies significantly upon internally determined assumptions. We have determined that these estimates primarily rely upon level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs based on our own assumptions. The most significant assumptions used in calculating the "as-if vacant" value for acquisition activity during the six months ended June 30, 2018 are as follows:
Low | High | |
Exit capitalization rate | 4.25% | 4.91% |
Net rental rate per square foot | $6.50 | $10.20 |
Capitalized acquisition costs were insignificant and the fair value of the six properties acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2018 was substantially the same as the cost of acquisition.
Dispositions
Dispositions of buildings and undeveloped land generated net cash proceeds of $433.6 million and $1.98 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2018, we collected $149.9 million of principal on notes receivable primarily related to the sale of our medical office properties during 2017, which is reflected within Other Assets within the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The number of buildings sold, as well as their classification between continuing and discontinued operations, is disclosed in Note 10.
6. Indebtedness
All debt is issued directly or indirectly by the Partnership. The General Partner does not have any indebtedness, but does guarantee some of the unsecured debt of the Partnership. The following table summarizes the book value and changes in the fair value of our debt (in thousands):
Book Value at 12/31/2017 | Book Value at 6/30/2018 | Fair Value at 12/31/2017 | Payments/Payoffs | Adjustments to Fair Value | Fair Value at 6/30/2018 | ||||||||||||||||||
Fixed rate secured debt | $ | 309,463 | $ | 303,867 | $ | 325,753 | $ | (5,557 | ) | $ | (3,638 | ) | $ | 316,558 | |||||||||
Variable rate secured debt | 2,500 | 2,500 | 2,500 | — | — | 2,500 | |||||||||||||||||

Total indebtedness as reported on the consolidated balance sheets | $ | 2,422,891 | $ | 2,417,429 |
Secured Debt
Because our fixed rate secured debt is not actively traded in any marketplace, we utilized a discounted cash flow methodology to determine its fair value. Accordingly, we calculated fair value by applying an estimate of the current market rate to discount the debt's remaining contractual cash flows. Our estimate of a current market rate, which is the most significant input in the discounted cash flow calculation, is intended to replicate debt of similar maturity and loan-to-value relationship. The estimated rates ranged from 3.90% to 4.20%, depending on the attributes of the specific loans. The current market rates we utilized were internally estimated; therefore, we have concluded that our determination of fair value for our fixed rate secured debt was primarily based upon level 3 inputs.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we paid $3.2 million on fixed rate secured loans, which had a weighted average stated interest rate of 7.43%.
16
Unsecured Debt
At June 30, 2018, all of our unsecured debt bore interest at fixed rates and primarily consisted of unsecured notes that are publicly traded. We utilized broker estimates in estimating the fair value of our fixed rate unsecured debt. Our unsecured notes are thinly traded and, in certain cases, the broker estimates were not based upon comparable transactions. The broker estimates took into account any recent trades within the same series of our fixed rate unsecured debt, comparisons to recent trades of other series of our fixed rate unsecured debt, trades of fixed rate unsecured debt from companies with profiles similar to ours, as well as overall economic conditions. We reviewed these broker estimates for reasonableness and accuracy, considering whether the estimates were based upon market participant assumptions within the principal and most advantageous market and whether any other observable inputs would be more accurate indicators of fair value than the broker estimates. We concluded that the broker estimates were representative of fair value. We have determined that our estimation of the fair value of our fixed rate unsecured debt was primarily based upon level 3 inputs. The estimated trading values of our fixed rate unsecured debt, depending on the maturity and coupon rates, ranged from 93.00% to 121.00% of face value.
The indentures (and related supplemental indentures) governing our outstanding series of unsecured notes also require us to comply with financial ratios and other covenants regarding our operations. We were in compliance with all such financial covenants at June 30, 2018.
Unsecured Line of Credit
Our unsecured line of credit at June 30, 2018 is described as follows (in thousands):
Description | Borrowing Capacity | Maturity Date | Outstanding Balance at June 30, 2018 | ||||||
Unsecured Line of Credit - Partnership | $ | 1,200,000 | January 30, 2022 | $ | — |
The Partnership's unsecured line of credit has an interest rate on borrowings of LIBOR plus 0.875% and has a maturity date of January 30, 2022, with options to extend until January 30, 2023. Subject to certain conditions, the terms also include an option to increase the facility by up to an additional $800.0 million, for a total of up to $2.00 billion. This line of credit provides us with an option to obtain borrowings from financial institutions that participate in the line at rates that may be lower than the stated interest rate, subject to certain restrictions.
This line of credit contains financial covenants that require us to meet certain financial ratios and defined levels of performance, including those related to fixed charge coverage, unsecured interest expense coverage and debt-to-asset value (with asset value being defined in the Partnership's unsecured line of credit agreement). At June 30, 2018, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under this line of credit.
To the extent there are outstanding borrowings, we utilize a discounted cash flow methodology in order to estimate the fair value of outstanding borrowings on our unsecured line of credit. To the extent that credit spreads have changed since the origination of the line of credit, the net present value of the difference between future contractual interest payments and future interest payments based on our estimate of a current market rate would represent the difference between the book value and the fair value. Our estimate of a current market rate is based upon the rate, considering current market conditions and our specific credit profile, at which we estimate we could obtain similar borrowings. As our credit spreads have not changed appreciably, we believe that the contractual interest rate and the current market rate on the line of credit are the same. The current market rate is internally estimated and therefore is primarily based upon a level 3 input.
7. Related Party Transactions
We provide property management, asset management, leasing, construction and other tenant-related services to unconsolidated joint ventures in which we have equity interests. We recorded the corresponding fees based on contractual terms that approximate market rates for these types of services and have eliminated our ownership

8. Net Income per Common Share or Common Unit
Basic net income per common share or Common Unit is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders or common unitholders, less dividends or distributions on share-based awards expected to vest (referred to as "participating securities" and primarily composed of unvested restricted stock units), by the weighted average number of common shares or Common Units outstanding for the period.
Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing the sum of net income attributable to common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in earnings allocable to Limited Partner Units (to the extent the Limited Partner Units are dilutive), less dividends or distributions on participating securities that are anti-dilutive, by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and, to the extent they are dilutive, weighted average number of Limited Partner Units outstanding and any potential dilutive securities for the period. Diluted net income per Common Unit is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common unitholders, less dividends or distributions on participating securities that are anti-dilutive, by the sum of the weighted average number of Common Units outstanding and any potential dilutive securities for the period. The following table reconciles the components of basic and diluted net income per common share or Common Unit (in thousands):

9. Segment Reporting
Reportable Segments
During the year ended December 31, 2017, we completed the disposition of our medical office portfolio (the "Medical Office Portfolio Disposition"), which resulted in all of our in-service medical office properties being classified within discontinued operations, with the exception of a property that did not meet the criteria for classification as held-for-sale at June 30, 2018. As a result of this transaction, beginning the second quarter of 2017, our medical office properties were no longer presented as a separate reportable segment, with substantially all such operating results being classified within discontinued operations. The remaining medical office property included in continuing operations no longer meets the quantitative thresholds for separate presentation, and is classified as part of our non-reportable Rental Operations. Properties that are not included in our reportable segments, because they do not by themselves meet the quantitative thresholds for separate presentation as a reportable segment, are generally referred to as non-reportable Rental Operations. Our non-reportable Rental Operations primarily include our remaining office properties and medical office property at June 30, 2018.
As of June 30, 2018, we had two reportable operating segments, the first consisting of the ownership and rental of industrial real estate investments. Our ongoing investments in new real estate investments are determined largely upon anticipated geographic trends in supply and demand for industrial buildings, as well as the real estate needs of our major tenants that operate on a national level. Our strategic initiatives and our allocation of resources have been historically based upon allocation among product types, which was consistent with our designation of reportable segments, and after having sold nearly all of our office and medical office properties we intend to increase our investment in industrial properties and treat them as a single operating and reportable segment. The operations of our industrial properties, as well as our non-reportable Rental Operations, are collectively referred to as "Rental Operations."
Our second reportable segment consists of various real estate services such as property management, asset management, maintenance, leasing, development, general contracting and construction management to third-party property owners and joint ventures, and is collectively referred to as "Service Operations." The Service Operations segment is identified as one single operating segment because the lowest level of financial results reviewed by our chief operating decision maker are the results for the Service Operations segment in total. Further, our reportable segments are managed separately because each segment requires different operating strategies and management expertise.
Revenues by Reportable Segment
The following table shows the revenues for each of the reportable segments, as well as a reconciliation to consolidated revenues (in thousands):

Supplemental Performance Measure
Property-level net operating income on a cash basis ("PNOI") is the non-GAAP supplemental performance measure that we use to evaluate the performance of, and to allocate resources among, the real estate investments in the reportable and operating segments that comprise our Rental Operations. PNOI for our Rental Operations segments is comprised of rental revenues from continuing operations less rental expenses and real estate taxes from continuing operations, along with certain other adjusting items (collectively referred to as "Rental Operations revenues and expenses excluded from PNOI," as shown in the following table). Additionally, we do not allocate interest expense, depreciation expense and certain other non-property specific revenues and expenses (collectively referred to as "Non-Segment Items," as shown in the following table) to our individual operating segments.
We evaluate the performance of our Service Operations reportable segment using net income or loss, as allocated to that segment ("Earnings from Service Operations").
The following table shows a reconciliation of our segment-level measures of profitability to consolidated income from continuing operations before income taxes (in thousands and excluding discontinued operations):

The most comparable GAAP measure to PNOI is income from continuing operations before income taxes. PNOI excludes expenses that materially impact our overall results of operations and, therefore, should not be considered as a substitute for income from continuing operations before income taxes or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, PNOI may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Properties excluded from discontinued operations | — | 13 | 17 | 30 | |||
Total properties sold or classified as held-for-sale | — | 13 | 98 | 111 |
For the properties that were classified in discontinued operations during 2017, we allocated interest expense to discontinued operations and have included such interest expense in computing income from discontinued operations. Interest expense allocable to discontinued operations was based upon an allocable share of our consolidated unsecured interest expense, as none of the properties included in discontinued operations were encumbered by secured debt. The allocation of unsecured interest expense to discontinued operations was based upon the gross book value of the unencumbered real estate assets included in discontinued operations as it related to the total gross book value of our unencumbered real estate assets. There were no additional properties classified as discontinued operations during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and, as such, no interest expense was allocated to discontinued operations during that period.

Business Overview
The General Partner and Partnership collectively specialize in the ownership, management and development of industrial real estate.
The General Partner is a self-administered and self-managed REIT that began operations in 1986 and is the sole general partner of the Partnership. The Partnership is a limited partnership formed in 1993, at which time all of the properties and related assets and liabilities of the General Partner, as well as proceeds from a secondary offering of the General Partner's common shares, were contributed to the Partnership. Simultaneously, the Partnership completed the acquisition of Duke Associates, a full-service commercial real estate firm operating in the Midwest whose operations began in 1972. We operate the General Partner and the Partnership as one enterprise, and therefore, our discussion and analysis refers to the General Partner and its consolidated subsidiaries, including the Partnership, collectively. A more complete description of our business, and of management's philosophy and priorities, is included in our 2017 Annual Report.
At June 30, 2018, we:
• | Owned or jointly controlled 517 primarily industrial properties, of which 491 properties with 138.9 million square feet were in service and 26 properties with 12.3 million square feet were under development. The 491 in-service properties were comprised of 450 consolidated properties with 127.4 million square feet and 41 jointly controlled unconsolidated properties with 11.5 million square feet. The 26 properties under development consisted of 23 consolidated properties with 11.7 million square feet and three jointly controlled unconsolidated properties with 684,000 square feet. |
25
• | Owned directly, or through ownership interests in unconsolidated joint ventures (with acreage not adjusted for our percentage ownership interest), approximately 1,700 acres of land and controlled approximately 1,000 acres through purchase options. |
Our overall strategy is to continue to increase our investment in quality industrial properties primarily through development, on both a speculative and build-to-suit basis, supplemented with acquisitions in higher barrier markets with the highest growth potential.
As of June 30, 2018, we had two reportable operating segments, the first consisting of the ownership and rental of industrial real estate investments. The operations of our industrial properties, as well as our non-reportable Rental Operations, are collectively referred to as "Rental Operations." Our second reportable segment consists of various real estate services such as property management, asset management, maintenance, leasing, development, general contracting and construction management to third-party property owners and joint ventures, and is collectively referred to as "Service Operations." Our reportable segments are managed separately because each segment requires different operating strategies and management expertise. Our Service Operations segment also includes our taxable REIT subsidiary, a legal entity through which certain of the segment's aforementioned operations are conducted.
Key Performance Indicators
Our operating results depend primarily upon rental income from our Rental Operations. The following discussion highlights the areas of Rental Operations that we consider to be critical drivers of future revenues.
Occupancy Analysis
Our ability to maintain high occupancy rates is a principal driver of maintaining and increasing rental revenue. The following table sets forth percent leased and average net effective rent information regarding our in-service portfolio of rental properties, including properties classified within both continuing and discontinued operations, at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively:

**Average annual net effective rent represents average annual base rental payments per leased square foot, on a straight-line basis for the term of each lease, from space leased to tenants at the end of the most recent reporting period. This amount excludes additional amounts paid by tenants as reimbursement for operating expenses. |
The increased occupancy within our industrial portfolio at June 30, 2018, compared to June 30, 2017, resulted from the lease ups of new speculative developments being placed in service or acquired from third parties.
Vacancy Activity
The following table sets forth vacancy activity, shown in square feet, from our in-service rental properties included within both continuing and discontinued operations, at June 30, 2018 (in thousands):

Total Leasing Activity
The initial leasing of development projects or vacant space in acquired properties is referred to as first generation lease activity. Our ability to maintain and improve occupancy rates and net effective rents primarily depends upon our continuing ability to re-lease expiring space. The leasing of such space that we have previously held under lease to a tenant is referred to as second generation lease activity. Second generation lease activity may be in the form of renewals of existing leases or new second generation leases of previously leased space. The total leasing activity for our consolidated and unconsolidated rental properties included within both continuing and discontinued operations, expressed in square feet of leases signed, is as follows (in thousands):

Building Acquisitions
Our decision process in determining whether or not to acquire a property or portfolio of properties involves several factors, including expected rent growth, multiple yield metrics, property locations and expected demographic growth in each location, current occupancy of the properties, tenant profile and remaining terms of the in-place leases in the target properties. We pursue both brokered and non-brokered acquisitions, and it is difficult to predict which markets may present acquisition opportunities that align with our strategy. Because of the numerous factors considered in our acquisition decisions, we do not establish specific target yields for future acquisitions.
We acquired six buildings during the six months ended June 30, 2018, and 28 buildings during the year ended December 31, 2017, one of which was sold as part of the Medical Office Portfolio Disposition. The following table summarizes the acquisition price, percent leased at time of acquisition and in-place yields, by product type, for these acquisitions (in thousands, except percentage data):

Building Dispositions
We regularly work to identify, consider and pursue opportunities to dispose of properties on an opportunistic basis and on a basis that is generally consistent with our strategic plans.
We sold 13 consolidated buildings during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 98 consolidated buildings, including 85 properties sold as part of the Medical Office Portfolio Disposition, during the year ended December 31, 2017.

Supplemental Performance Measures
In addition to net income computed in accordance with GAAP, we assess and measure the overall operating results of the General Partner and the Partnership using certain non-GAAP supplemental performance measures, which include (i) Funds From Operations ("FFO"), (ii) PNOI and (iii) Same-Property Net Operating Income - Cash Basis ("SPNOI").
These non-GAAP metrics are commonly used by industry analysts and investors as supplemental operating performance measures of REITs and are viewed by management to be useful indicators of operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry analysts and investors have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. Management believes that the use of FFO, PNOI and SPNOI, combined with net income (which remains the primary measure of performance), improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and makes comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful.
The most comparable GAAP measure to FFO is net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders or common unitholders, while the most comparable GAAP measure to PNOI and SPNOI is income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes.
FFO, PNOI and SPNOI each exclude expenses that materially impact our overall results of operations and, therefore, should not be considered as a substitute for net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders or common unitholders, income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, or any other measures derived
31
in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, these metrics may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
Funds From Operations
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") created FFO as a non-GAAP supplemental measure of REIT operating performance. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents GAAP net income (loss), excluding gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated real estate assets, impairment charges related to depreciable real estate assets, taxes associated with sales of previously depreciated real estate assets plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization, and after similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We calculate FFO in accordance with the definition that was adopted by the Board of Governors of NAREIT.
Management believes that the use of FFO as a performance measure enables investors and analysts to readily identify the operating results of the long-term assets that form the core of a REIT's activity and assists them in comparing these operating results between periods or between different companies that use the NAREIT definition of FFO.
The following table shows a reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders or common unitholders to the calculation of FFO attributable to common shareholders or common unitholders (in thousands):

Property-Level Net Operating Income - Cash Basis
PNOI is comprised of rental revenues from continuing operations less rental expenses and real estate taxes from continuing operations, along with certain other adjusting items. As a performance metric that consists of only the cash-based revenues and expenses directly related to ongoing real estate rental operations, PNOI is narrower in scope than FFO.
PNOI, as we calculate it, may not be directly comparable to similarly titled, but differently calculated, measures for other REITs. We believe that PNOI is another useful supplemental performance measure, as it is an input in many REIT valuation models and it provides a means by which to evaluate the performance of the properties within our Rental Operations segments.
32
The major factors influencing PNOI are occupancy levels, acquisitions and sales, development properties that achieve stabilized operations, rental rate increases or decreases, and the recoverability of operating expenses.
Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report shows a calculation of our PNOI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 and provides a reconciliation of PNOI for our Rental Operations segments to income from continuing operations before income taxes.
Same Property Net Operating Income - Cash Basis
We also evaluate the performance of our properties, including our share of properties we jointly control, on a "same property" basis, using a metric referred to as SPNOI. We view SPNOI as a useful supplemental performance measure because it improves comparability between periods by eliminating the effects of changes in the composition of our portfolio.
On an individual property basis, SPNOI is generally computed in a consistent manner as PNOI which also excludes income from lease buyouts.
Effective January 1, 2018, we define our "same property" population once a year at the beginning of the current calendar year and include buildings that were stabilized (the term "stabilized" means properties that have reached 90% leased or that have been in-service for at least one year since development completion or acquisition) as of January 1 of the prior calendar year. The "same property" pool is also adjusted to remove properties that were sold subsequent to the beginning of the current calendar year. As such, the "same property" population for the period ended June 30, 2018 includes all properties that we owned or jointly controlled at January 1, 2018, which had both been owned or jointly controlled and had reached stabilization by January 1, 2017, and have not been sold.
A reconciliation of income from continuing operations before income taxes to SPNOI is presented as follows (in thousands, except percentage data):

The composition of the line items titled "Rental Operations revenues and expenses excluded from PNOI" and "Non-Segment Items" from the table above are shown in greater detail in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report.
We believe that the factors that impact SPNOI are generally the same as those that impact PNOI. The following table details the number of properties, square feet, average occupancy and cash rental rates for the properties included in SPNOI for the respective periods:

Average rental rate - cash basis (3) | $4.34 | $4.22 | $4.32 | $4.21 | ||||
(1) Includes the total square feet of the consolidated properties that are in the "same property" population as well as 4.5 million square feet of space for unconsolidated joint ventures, which represents our ratable share of the 9.1 million total square feet of space for buildings owned by unconsolidated joint ventures that are in the "same property" population. | ||||||||
(2) Commencement occupancy represents the percentage of total square feet where the leases have commenced. | ||||||||
(3) Represents the average annualized contractual rent per square foot for tenants in occupancy in properties in the "same property" population. Cash rent does not include the tenant's obligation to pay property operating expenses and real estate taxes. If a tenant was within a free rent period, its rent would equal zero for purposes of this metric. |
Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 to Three Months Ended June 30, 2017
Rental and Related Revenue
The following table sets forth rental and related revenue from continuing and discontinued operations (in thousands):
Three Months Ended June 30, | |||||||
2018 | 2017 | ||||||
Rental and related revenue: | |||||||
Industrial | $ | 190,629 | $ | 162,559 | |||
Non-reportable Rental Operations and non-segment revenues | 1,464 | 3,277 | |||||
Total rental and related revenue from continuing operations | $ | 192,093 | $ | 165,836 | |||
Rental and related revenue from discontinued operations | 27 | 35,165 | |||||
Total rental and related revenue from continuing and discontinued operations | $ | 192,120 | $ | 201,001 |
The primary reasons for the increase in rental and related revenue from continuing operations were:
• | Expense reimbursements increased primarily due to increased real estate taxes in our existing properties during the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017. |
• | We acquired 33 properties and placed 29 developments in service from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018, which provided incremental revenues from continuing operations of $24.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017. |
• | Increased rental rates within our "same property" portfolio also contributed to the increase to rental and related revenue from continuing operations. |
• | The sale of 26 in-service properties since January 1, 2017, which did not meet the criteria to be classified within discontinued operations, resulted in a decrease of $5.2 million to rental and related revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017, which partially offset the aforementioned increases to rental and related revenue from continuing operations. |
Rental and related revenue from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2018 decreased compared to the same period in 2017 as the result of the properties classified within discontinued operations being sold throughout 2017.
Rental Expenses and Real Estate Taxes

Real estate tax expense from discontinued operations | — | 3,690 | |||||
Total real estate tax expense from continuing and discontinued operations | $ | 31,196 | $ | 30,592 |
Rental expenses from continuing operations increased by $2.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The increase to rental expenses was primarily the result of acquisitions and developments placed in service from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018.
Real estate tax expense from continuing operations increased by $4.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The increase to real estate tax expense was mainly the result of acquisitions and developments placed in service from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018 and increases in real estate taxes on our existing base of properties. These increases to real estate tax expense were partially offset by the impact of property sales that did not meet the criteria to be classified within discontinued operations.
The decreases in both rental expenses and real estate tax expense from discontinued operations are the result of the properties classified within discontinued operations being sold throughout 2017.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations increased from $67.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to $75.8 million for the same period in 2018 primarily as the result of the properties acquired and the developments placed in service since January 1, 2017. The impact of acquired properties and developments placed in service was partially offset by property dispositions that did not meet the criteria to be classified within discontinued operations.
Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures represents our ownership share of net income from investments in unconsolidated joint ventures that generally own and operate rental properties. Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures decreased from $51.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to $1.7 million for the same period in 2018. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we recognized $48.9 million of equity in earnings primarily as a result of gains on sale of our interests in three unconsolidated joint ventures, two of which were sold as part of the Medical Office Portfolio Disposition.
Promote Income
We recognized $20.0 million of promote income from the sale of our interest in one of our unconsolidated joint ventures, as part of the Medical Office Portfolio Disposition, during the three months ended June 30, 2017. We did not recognize any promote income during the three months ended June 30, 2018.
35
Gain on Sale of Properties - Continuing Operations
The $150.0 million recognized as gain on sale of properties in continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was the result of the sale of seven properties that did not meet the criteria for inclusion in discontinued operations.
The $34.3 million recognized as gain on sale of properties in continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was the result of the sale of five properties that did not meet the criteria for inclusion in discontinued operations.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist of two components. The first component includes general corporate expenses, and the second component represents the indirect operating costs not allocated to, or absorbed by, either development, leasing and operation of our wholly owned properties or our Service Operations. Such indirect operating costs are primarily comprised of employee compensation, including related costs such as benefits and wage-related taxes, but also include other ancillary costs such as travel and information technology support. Total indirect operating costs, prior to any allocation or absorption, and general corporate expenses are collectively referred to as our overall pool of overhead costs.
Those indirect costs not allocated to or absorbed by these operations are charged to general and administrative expenses. We regularly review our total overhead cost structure relative to our leasing, development and construction volume and adjust the level of total overhead, generally through changes in our level of staffing in various functional departments, as necessary, in order to control overall general and administrative expense.
General and administrative expenses increased from $11.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to $13.5 million for the same period in 2018. The following table sets forth the factors that led to the increased general and administrative expenses (in millions):
General and administrative expenses - three-month period ended June 30, 2017 | $ | 11.9 | |
Decrease to overall pool of overhead costs | (1.5 | ) | |
Decreased absorption of costs by wholly owned leasing and development activities (1) | 2.6 | ||
Decreased allocation of costs to Service Operations and Rental Operations (2) | 0.5 | ||
General and administrative expenses - three-month period ended June 30, 2018 | $ | 13.5 |
(1) We capitalized $4.9 million and $7.3 million of our total overhead costs to leasing and development, respectively, for consolidated properties during the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to capitalizing $5.0 million and $9.9 million of such costs, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Combined overhead costs capitalized to leasing and development totaled 35.7% and 41.6% of our overall pool of overhead costs for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
(2) The decrease in allocation of costs to Service Operations and Rental Operations resulted from a lower volume of third party construction projects during the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Interest Expense
Interest expense allocable to continuing operations decreased from $21.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to $20.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease to interest expense from continuing operations was primarily due to interest savings from repaying outstanding debt with the proceeds from the Medical Office Portfolio Disposition, and the refinancing of higher rate senior unsecured notes during 2017.
We capitalized $7.2 million and $5.3 million of interest costs for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
36
Debt Extinguishment
During the three months ended June 30, 2018, we made a $3.1 million partial early repayment on a secured loan, which had a stated interest rate of 7.5% and a maturity date of March 2019, and recognized a loss of $151,000 from the applicable prepayment premium.
During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we repaid a $250.0 million variable rate term loan that had a maturity date of January 2019 and bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.00%, and recognized a loss of $523,000 from the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs. We also repaid $285.6 million of senior unsecured notes that had a stated interest rate of 6.50% and an effective interest rate of 6.08%, which had a scheduled maturity in January 2018, and recognized a loss of $9.0 million including the repayment premiums and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs.
Discontinued Operations
The property-specific components of earnings that are classified as discontinued operations include rental revenues, rental expenses, real estate taxes, allocated interest expense and depreciation expense, as well as the net gain or loss on the disposition of the properties and related income tax expenses.
We had no buildings classified as discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and had 81 consolidated properties classified as discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The amounts classified in discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2018 were comprised of true-up activity related to 2017 property sales that were classified as discontinued operations.
The 81 consolidated properties that were classified as discontinued operations at June 30, 2017 were all medical office properties that were sold at various points in 2017. As a result, we classified income before gain on sales of $11.1 million within discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The gains on disposal of 73 of these properties, totaling $1.11 billion, and related income tax impact, totaling $11.6 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were also reported in discontinued operations.
Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 to Six Months Ended June 30, 2017
Rental and Related Revenue
The following table sets forth rental and related revenue from continuing and discontinued operations (in thousands):
Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||

Rental and related revenue from discontinued operations | 32 | 81,404 | |||||
Total rental and related revenue from continuing and discontinued operations | $ | 385,581 | $ | 418,916 |
The following factors contributed to the increase in rental and related revenue from continuing operations:
• | Expense reimbursements increased primarily due to increased real estate taxes in our existing properties during the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017. |
• | Increased occupancy and rental rates within our same-property portfolio also contributed to the increase to rental and related revenue from continuing operations. Average commencement occupancy and rental rates in our same-property portfolio both increased from the six months ended June 30, 2017. |
37
• | We acquired 33 properties and placed 29 developments in service from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018, which provided incremental revenues from continuing operations of $48.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017. |
• | The sale of 26 in-service properties, since January 1, 2017, which did not meet the criteria for inclusion within discontinued operations, resulted in a decrease of $18.3 million to rental and related revenue from continuing operations in the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017, which partially offset the aforementioned increases to rental and related revenue from continuing operations. |
• | Rental and related revenue from continuing operations includes lease termination fees, which relate to specific tenants who pay a fee to terminate their lease obligation before the end of the contractual lease term. The increase in rental and related revenue from continuing operations is partially offset by a decrease of $9.8 million in termination fees compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. |
Rental and related revenue from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 decreased compared to the same period in 2017 as the properties classified within discontinued operations were sold throughout 2017.

Overall, rental expenses from continuing operations increased by $6.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The increase to rental expenses from continuing operations was primarily the result of acquisitions and developments placed in service from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018.
Overall, real estate tax expense from continuing operations increased by $8.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The increase to real estate tax expense was mainly the result of acquisitions and developments placed in service from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018, as well as increases in real estate taxes on our existing base of properties, both partially offset by the impact of property sales that did not meet the criteria to be classified within discontinued operations.
The decreases in both rental expenses and real estate tax expense from discontinued operations are a result of the properties classified within discontinued operations being sold throughout 2017.
38
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased from $129.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 to $153.4 million for the same period in 2018, primarily as the result of the properties acquired and the developments placed in service since January 1, 2017. The impact of acquired properties and developments placed in service was partially offset by asset dispositions that did not meet the criteria to be classified within discontinued operations.
Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
Equity in earnings from unconsolidated joint ventures decreased from $56.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 to $10.0 million for the same period in 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded $6.2 million to equity in earnings from unconsolidated joint ventures related to our share of the gain on sale of four joint venture buildings. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we recorded $50.7 million of equity in earnings from unconsolidated joint ventures primarily as the result of the gains on sale of our interests in three unconsolidated joint ventures, two of which were sold as part of the Medical Office Portfolio Disposition, and our share of the gain on sale of one joint venture building.
Promote Income
We recognized $20.0 million of promote income, from the sale of our interest in one of our unconsolidated joint ventures, as part of the Medical Office Portfolio Disposition, during the six months ended June 30, 2017. We did not recognize any promote income during the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Gain on Sale of Properties - Continuing Operations
The $194.8 million recognized in continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was comprised primarily of the gains from the sale of 13 properties. These properties did not meet the criteria for inclusion in discontinued operations.
The $71.4 million recognized in continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017 is primarily comprised of the gains from the sale of 12 properties that did not meet the criteria for inclusion in discontinued operations.
General and Administrative Expense
General and administrative expenses increased from $31.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 to $34.5 million for the same period in 2018. The following table sets forth the factors that led to the increased general and administrative expenses (in millions):
General and administrative expenses - six months ended June 30, 2017 | $ | 31.1 | |

(1) We capitalized $13.1 million and $12.0 million of our total overhead costs to leasing and development, respectively, for consolidated properties during the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to capitalizing $10.2 million and $18.2 million of such costs, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Combined overhead costs capitalized to leasing and development totaled 32.8% and 37.2% of our overall pool of overhead costs for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Interest Expense
Interest expense allocable to continuing operations decreased from $44.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 to $40.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease to interest expense from continuing operations was primarily due to interest savings from repaying outstanding debt with the proceeds from the Medical Office Portfolio Disposition, and the refinancing of higher rate senior unsecured notes during 2017.
39
We capitalized $15.3 million and $9.5 million of interest costs during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively.
Debt Extinguishment
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we made a $3.1 million partial early repayment on a secured loan, which had a stated interest rate of 7.5% and a maturity date of March 2019, and recognized a loss of $151,000 from the applicable prepayment premium.
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we repaid a $250.0 million variable rate term loan that had a maturity date of January 2019 and bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.00%, and recognized a loss of $523,000 from the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs. We also repaid $285.6 million of senior unsecured notes that had a stated interest rate of 6.50% and an effective interest rate of 6.08%, which had a scheduled maturity date in January 2018, and recognized a loss of $9.0 million including the repayment premium and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs.
Discontinued Operations
We had no buildings classified as discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and had 81 consolidated properties classified as discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The amounts classified in discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were comprised of true-up activity related to 2017 property sales that were classified as discontinued operations.
The 81 consolidated properties that were classified as discontinued operations at June 30, 2017 were all medical office properties that were sold at various points in 2017. As a result, we classified income before gain on sales, of $15.2 million within discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The gains on disposal of 73 of these properties, totaling $1.11 billion, and related income tax impact, totaling $11.6 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were also reported in discontinued operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements over the next 12 months including payments of dividends and distributions and the capital expenditures needed to maintain our current real estate assets, primarily through working capital, net cash provided by operating activities and proceeds received from real estate dispositions. We had no outstanding borrowings on the Partnership's $1.20 billion unsecured line of credit, had $86.3 million of cash on hand and held $146.1 million of restricted cash for future like-kind exchange transactions at June 30, 2018.
In addition to our existing sources of liquidity, we expect to meet long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled mortgage and unsecured debt maturities, property acquisitions, financing of development activities and other capital improvements, through multiple sources of capital including operating cash flow, proceeds from property dispositions and accessing the public debt and equity markets. At June 30, 2018, we also held $255.0 million of notes receivable from the various entities that purchased our medical office properties in 2017, as part of the Medical Office Portfolio Disposition, which are scheduled to mature at various points through January 2020.

Rental Operations
Cash flows from Rental Operations is our primary source of liquidity and provides a stable source of cash flow to fund operational expenses. We believe that this cash-based revenue stream is substantially aligned with revenue recognition (except for items such as periodic straight-line rental income accruals and amortization of above or below market rents) as cash receipts from the leasing of rental properties are generally received in advance of, or a short time following, the actual revenue recognition.
We are subject to a number of risks related to general economic conditions, including reduced occupancy, tenant defaults and bankruptcies and potential reduction in rental rates upon renewal or re-letting of properties, any of which would result in reduced cash flow from operations.
Unsecured Debt and Equity Securities
We use the Partnership's unsecured line of credit (which is guaranteed by the General Partner) as a temporary source of capital to fund development activities, acquire additional rental properties and provide working capital.
The Partnership has issued debt securities pursuant to certain indentures and related supplemental indentures, which also require us to comply with financial ratios and other covenants regarding our operations. We were in compliance with all such covenants, as well as applicable covenants under our unsecured line of credit, at June 30, 2018.
At June 30, 2018, we had on file with the SEC an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 relating to the offer and sale, from time to time, of an indeterminate amount of debt and equity securities (including guarantees of the Partnership's debt securities by the General Partner). Equity securities are offered and sold by the General Partner, and the net proceeds of such offerings are contributed to the Partnership in exchange for additional General Partner Units or Preferred Units. From time to time, we expect to issue additional securities under this automatic shelf registration statement to fund the repayment of long-term debt upon maturity and for other general corporate purposes.
The General Partner has an at the market ("ATM") equity program that allows it to issue new common shares from time to time, with an aggregate offering price of up to $200.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the General Partner did not issue any common shares pursuant to its ATM equity program. As of June 30, 2018, the ATM equity program still had $108.1 million worth of new common shares available to issue.
Sale of Real Estate Assets
We regularly work to identify, consider and pursue opportunities to dispose of non-strategic properties on an opportunistic basis and on a basis that is generally consistent with our strategic plans. Our ability to dispose of such properties on favorable terms, or at all, is dependent upon a number of factors including the availability of credit to potential buyers to purchase properties at prices that we consider acceptable. Although we believe that we have demonstrated our ability to generate significant liquidity through the disposition of non-strategic properties, potential future adverse changes to general market and economic conditions could negatively impact our further ability to dispose of such properties.
Sales of land and depreciable properties provided $433.6 million in net proceeds during the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Transactions with Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
Transactions with unconsolidated joint ventures also provide a source of liquidity. From time to time we will sell properties to unconsolidated joint ventures, while retaining a continuing interest in that entity, and receive proceeds commensurate to those interests that we do not own. Additionally, unconsolidated joint ventures will from time to time obtain debt financing or sell properties and will then distribute to us, and our joint venture partners, all or a
41
portion of the proceeds from such transactions. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, our share of sale and capital distributions from unconsolidated joint ventures totaled $17.4 million.
Uses of Liquidity
Our principal uses of liquidity include the following:
• | property investment; |
• | leasing/capital costs; |
• | dividends and distributions to shareholders and unitholders; |
• | long-term debt maturities; |
• | opportunistic repurchases of outstanding debt; and |
• | other contractual obligations. |
Property Investment
Our overall strategy is to continue to increase our investment in quality industrial properties, primarily through development, on both a speculative and build-to-suit basis, supplemented with acquisitions in higher barrier markets with the highest growth potential. Pursuant to this strategy, we evaluate development and acquisition opportunities based upon our market outlook, including general economic conditions, supply and long-term growth potential. Our ability to make future property investments is dependent upon identifying suitable acquisition and development opportunities, and our continued access to our longer-term sources of liquidity, including issuances of debt or equity securities as well as generating cash flow by disposing of selected properties.
Leasing/Capital Costs
Tenant improvements and lease-related costs pertaining to our initial leasing of newly completed space, or vacant space in acquired properties, are referred to as first generation expenditures. Such first generation expenditures for tenant improvements are included within "development of real estate investments" in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, while such expenditures for lease-related costs are included within "other deferred leasing costs."
Cash expenditures related to the construction of a building's shell, as well as the associated site improvements, are also included within "development of real estate investments" in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Tenant improvements and leasing costs to renew or re-let rental space that we previously leased to tenants for new second generation leases are referred to as second generation expenditures. Building improvements that are not specific to any tenant but serve to improve integral components of our real estate properties are also second generation expenditures. One of the principal uses of our liquidity is to fund the second generation leasing/capital expenditures of our real estate investments.
The following table summarizes our second generation capital expenditures by type of expenditure, as well as capital expenditures for the development of real estate investments and for other deferred leasing costs (in thousands):
Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||
2018 | 2017 | ||||||
Second generation tenant improvements | $ | 9,358 | $ | 7,363 | |||
Second generation leasing costs | 15,968 | 10,018 | |||||
Building improvements | 1,011 | 2,731 | |||||

Development of real estate investments | $ | 227,186 | $ | 288,833 | |||
Other deferred leasing costs | $ | 20,787 | $ | 16,091 |
The capital expenditures in the table above include the capitalization of internal overhead costs. We capitalized $13.1 million and $10.2 million of overhead costs related to leasing activities, including both first and second
42
generation leases, during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We capitalized $12.0 million and $18.2 million of overhead costs related to development activities, including both development and tenant improvement projects on first and second generation space, during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Combined overhead costs capitalized to leasing and development totaled 32.8% and 37.2% of our overall pool of overhead costs for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Further discussion of the capitalization of overhead costs can be found herein, in the quarter-to-quarter and year-to-date comparisons of general and administrative expenses of this Item 2 as well as in the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2017 Annual Report.
In addition to the capitalization of overhead costs, the totals for development of real estate assets in the table above include the capitalization of $15.3 million and $9.5 million of interest costs during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
The following table summarizes our second generation capital expenditures (in thousands):
Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||
2018 | 2017 | ||||||
Industrial | $ | 26,281 | $ | 18,550 | |||
Non-reportable Rental Operations | 56 | 1,562 | |||||
Total | $ | 26,337 | $ | 20,112 |
Both our first and second generation expenditures vary significantly between leases on a per square foot basis, dependent upon several factors including the product type, the nature of a tenant's operations, the specific physical characteristics of each individual property and the market in which the property is located.
Dividend and Distribution Requirements
The General Partner is required to meet the distribution requirements of the Code in order to maintain its REIT status. We paid regular dividends or distributions of $0.20 per common share or Common Unit in the first and second quarters of 2018, and the General Partner's board of directors declared dividends or distributions of $0.20 per common share or Common Unit for the third quarter of 2018.
We expect to continue to distribute at least an amount equal to our taxable earnings, to meet the requirements to maintain the General Partner's REIT status, and additional amounts as determined by the General Partner's board of directors. Distributions are declared at the discretion of the General Partner's board of directors and are subject to actual cash available for distribution, our financial condition, capital requirements and such other factors as the General Partner's board of directors deems relevant.
Debt Maturities
Debt outstanding at June 30, 2018 had a face value totaling $2.44 billion with a weighted average interest rate of 4.32% and maturities at various dates through 2028. Of this total amount, we had $2.13 billion of unsecured debt, $306.2 million of secured debt and no outstanding borrowings on our unsecured line of credit at June 30, 2018. Scheduled principal amortization, maturities and early repayments of such debt totaled $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
The following table is a summary of the scheduled future amortization and maturities of our indebtedness at June 30, 2018 (in thousands, except percentage data):

We anticipate generating capital to fund our debt maturities by using undistributed cash generated from our Rental Operations and property dispositions and by raising additional capital from future debt or equity transactions.
Repayments of Outstanding Debt
To the extent that it supports our overall capital strategy, we may purchase or redeem some of our outstanding unsecured notes prior to their stated maturities.
Contractual Obligations
Aside from repayments of long-term debt, there have been no other material changes in our outstanding commitments since December 31, 2017, as previously discussed in our 2017 Annual Report.
Historical Cash Flows
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $242.6 million and $968.0 million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The following table highlights significant changes in net cash associated with our operating, investing and financing activities (in millions):

Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities provide the cash necessary to meet normal operational requirements of our Rental Operations and Service Operations activities. The receipt of rental income from Rental Operations continues to be our primary source of operating cash flows. Cash flow provided by operating activities was relatively consistent with the six months ended June 30, 2017, but was impacted by a $20.0 million promote payment received from the Medical Office Portfolio Disposition during the six months ended June 30, 2017 that was substantially offset by lower cash paid for interest and improved property level operations during the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Investing Activities
Highlights of significant cash sources and uses are as follows:
• | During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we paid cash of $208.9 million and $98.5 million, respectively, for real estate and undeveloped land acquisitions, compared to $237.5 million and $67.9 million for real estate and undeveloped land acquisitions in the same period in 2017. |
• | Real estate development costs were $227.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $288.8 million for the same period in 2017. |
• | Sales of land and depreciated properties provided $433.6 million in net proceeds for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $1.98 billion for the same period in 2017. |
• | The increased cash inflows reflected in the Other Assets line of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was the result of receiving repayments of $149.9 million on notes receivable compared to $1.7 million for the same period in 2017. |
• | Second generation tenant improvements, leasing costs and building improvements totaled $26.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $20.1 million for the same period in 2017. |
• | For the six months ended June 30, 2018, we received $17.4 million in capital distributions from unconsolidated joint ventures, primarily related to the sale of four properties within two of our joint ventures, compared to $111.6 million during the same period in 2017. |
• | For the six months ended June 30, 2018, we made capital contributions of $2.6 million to unconsolidated joint ventures, compared to $2.0 million during the same period in 2017. |
Financing Activities
The following items highlight significant capital transactions:
• | During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Partnership paid $3.2 million on secured loans. The Partnership repaid three secured loans for $42.9 million during the same period in 2017. |
• | For the six months ended June 30, 2017, we repaid $48.0 million of net borrowings on the Partnership's unsecured line of credit. There were no net borrowings or repayments on the Partnership's unsecured line of credit for the six months ended June 30, 2018. |
• | During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Partnership repaid $1.3 million of senior unsecured notes. In June 2017, we paid $545.9 million to execute the early repayment of a $250.0 million variable rate term loan as well as the early redemption of $285.6 million of senior unsecured notes. These cash payments included the prepayment premium for the senior unsecured notes. |
• | We paid regular cash dividends or distributions totaling $142.8 million and $135.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. |
• | Changes in book cash overdrafts are classified as financing activities within our consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Book cash overdrafts were $1.1 million at June 30, 2018. There were no book cash overdrafts for the six months ended June 30, 2017. |

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements - Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
We analyze our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures to determine if they meet the criteria for classification as a VIE and would require consolidation. We (i) evaluate the sufficiency of the total equity at risk, (ii) review the voting rights and decision-making authority of the equity investment holders as a group and whether there are limited partners (or similar owning entities) that lack substantive participating or kick out rights and (iii) establish whether or not activities within the venture are on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights in making this VIE determination. To the extent that we (i) are the sole entity that has the power to direct the activities of the VIE and (ii) have the obligation or rights to absorb the VIE's losses or receive its benefits, then we would be determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and would consolidate it. At the end of each reporting period, we re-assess our conclusions as to which, if any, party within the VIE is considered the primary beneficiary. To the extent that our joint ventures do not qualify as VIEs, we further assess each joint venture partner's substantive participating rights to determine if the venture should be consolidated. There were no unconsolidated joint ventures that met the criteria to be a VIE at June 30, 2018.
We have equity interests in unconsolidated partnerships and limited liability companies that primarily own and operate rental properties and hold land for development. These unconsolidated joint ventures are primarily engaged in the operation and development of industrial real estate properties. These investments provide us with increased market share and tenant and property diversification. The equity method of accounting is used for these investments in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over operating and financial policies. As a result, the assets and liabilities of these entities are not included on our balance sheet. Our investments in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures represented approximately 1% and 2% of our total assets at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Total assets of our unconsolidated joint ventures were $503.5 million and $556.2 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The combined revenues of our unconsolidated joint ventures totaled $29.1 million and $42.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
We have guaranteed the repayment of certain secured and unsecured loans of our unconsolidated joint ventures. The outstanding balances on the guaranteed portion of these loans totaled $115.0 million at June 30, 2018.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of our line of credit and our long-term borrowings. Our interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives, we borrow primarily at fixed rates. We do not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.
Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques. The table below presents the principal amounts (in thousands) of the expected annual maturities, weighted average interest rates for the average debt outstanding in the specified period, fair values (in thousands) and other terms required to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes.
Remainder of 2018 | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | Thereafter | Face Value | Fair Value | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fixed rate secured debt | $ | 2,310 | $ | 269,130 | $ | 3,583 | $ | 12,163 | $ | 3,311 | $ | 13,178 | $ | 303,675 | $ | 316,558 | |||||||||||||||

46
As the above table incorporates only those exposures that existed at June 30, 2018, it does not consider those exposures or positions that could arise after that date. As a result, the ultimate impact of interest rate fluctuations will depend on future exposures that arise and our hedging strategies at that time. Interest expense on our unsecured line of credit, to the extent we have outstanding borrowings, will be affected by fluctuations in the LIBOR indices as well as changes in our credit rating. The interest rate at such point in the future as we may renew, extend or replace our unsecured line of credit will be heavily dependent upon the state of the credit environment.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are parties to a variety of legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of our businesses. While these matters generally are covered by insurance, there is no assurance that our insurance will cover any particular proceeding or claim. We are not subject to any material pending legal proceedings other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. We presently believe that all of the proceedings to which we were subject as of June 30, 2018, taken as a whole, will not have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, business, financial condition or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the information set forth in this Report, you also should carefully review and consider the information contained in our other reports and periodic filings that we make with the SEC, including, without limitation the information contained under the caption "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our 2017 Annual Report. The risks and uncertainties described in our 2017 Annual Report are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we presently deem to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. There have not been any material changes to the risk factors that we face since our 2017 Annual Report, other than the changes to the risk factor described below, which has been revised.
Our business and operations could suffer in the event of system failures or cyber security attacks.
Our systems are vulnerable to damages from any number of sources, including energy blackouts, natural disasters, terrorism, war, telecommunication failures and cyber security attacks, such as computer viruses or unauthorized access. Additionally, changes in critical systems, such as our enterprise risk planning systems, include an inherent risk of system interruption or failure. Any system failure or accident that causes interruptions in our operations could result in a material disruption to our business. We may also incur additional costs to remedy damages caused by such disruptions. Any compromise of our security could also result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws, unauthorized access to information of ours and others, significant legal and financial exposure, damage to our reputation, loss or misuse of the information and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could harm our business.
There can be no assurance that our efforts to maintain the security and integrity of our systems will be effective, or that we will be able to maintain our systems free from security breaches or other operational interruptions. Even the most well protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable when considering the rapid pace of technological change. Other operational issues, such as system changes, could result in system interruption or failure, inability to meet reporting requirements in a timely fashion, or increased costs. Accordingly, we may be unable to prevent major security breaches or entirely mitigate the risk of other system interruptions or failures.
We could also be negatively impacted by similar disruptions to the operations of our vendors or outsourced service providers.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
(a) Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
None
(b) Use of Proceeds
None
49
(c) Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
From time to time, we repurchase our securities under a repurchase program that initially was approved by the General Partner's board of directors and publicly announced in October 2001 (the "Repurchase Program").
On January 31, 2018, the General Partner's board of directors adopted a resolution that amended and restated the Repurchase Program and delegated authority to management to repurchase a maximum of $100.0 million of the General Partner's common shares, $500.0 million of the Partnership's debt securities and $500.0 million of the General Partner's preferred shares, subject to the prior notification of the Chairman of the Finance Committee of the board of directors of planned repurchases within these limits. We did not repurchase any equity securities through the Repurchase Program during the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities
During the period covered by this Report, we did not default under the terms of any of our material indebtedness.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
During the period covered by this Report, there was no information required to be disclosed by us in a Current Report on Form 8-K that was not so reported, nor were there any material changes to the procedures by which our security holders may recommend nominees to the General Partner's board of directors.
