We acquire and operate commercial real estate and real estate-related assets.  In particular, we focus generally on acquiring commercial properties with significant possibilities for short-term capital appreciation, such as those requiring development, redevelopment, or repositioning, those located in markets and submarkets with high growth potential, and those available from sellers who are distressed or face time-sensitive deadlines.  In addition, given economic conditions as of September 30, 2011, our opportunistic investment strategy also includes investments in real estate-related assets that present opportunities for higher current income.  Such investments may have capital gain characteristics, whether as a result of a discounted purchase or related equity participations.  We may acquire a wide variety of commercial properties, including office, industrial, retail, hospitality, recreation and leisure, single-tenant, multifamily and other real properties.  These properties may be existing, income-producing properties, newly constructed properties, or properties under development or construction.  They may include multifamily properties purchased for conversion into condominiums or single-tenant properties that may be converted for multi-tenant use.  We may invest in real estate-related securities, including securities issued by other real estate companies, either for investment or in change of control transactions completed on a negotiated basis or otherwise.  Further, we may also originate or invest in collateralized mortgage-backed securities, mortgage, bridge or mezzanine loans, and Section 1031 tenant-in-common interests (including those issued by affiliates of our Advisor, as defined below), or in entities that make investments similar to the foregoing.  We expect to make our investments in or in respect of real estate assets located in the United States and other countries based on our view of existing market conditions.  We completed our first property acquisition, an office building located in Denver, Colorado, on October 28, 2008.  As of September 30, 2011, we consolidated ten real estate assets.

 

Substantially all of our business is conducted through Behringer Harvard Opportunity OP II LP, a limited partnership organized in Delaware on January 12, 2007 (“Behringer Harvard Opportunity OP II”).  As of September 30, 2011, our wholly-owned subsidiary, BHO II, Inc., a Delaware corporation, was the sole general partner of Behringer Harvard Opportunity OP II and owned a 0.1% partnership interest in Behringer Harvard Opportunity OP II.  As of September 30, 2011, our wholly-owned subsidiary, BHO Business Trust II, a Maryland business trust, was the sole limited partner of Behringer Harvard Opportunity OP II and owned the remaining 99.9% interest in Behringer Harvard Opportunity OP II.

 

We are externally managed and advised by Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors II, LLC, a Texas limited liability company that was formed on March 16, 2010 (the “Advisor”) when Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors II LP, a Texas limited partnership formed in January 2007, was converted to a limited liability company.  The Advisor is responsible for managing our day-to-day affairs and for identifying and making acquisitions and investments on our behalf.

 

Our office is located at 15601 Dallas Parkway, Suite 600, Addison, Texas 75001, and our toll-free telephone number is (866) 655-3600.  The name Behringer Harvard is the property of Behringer Harvard Holdings, LLC (“Behringer Harvard Holdings”) and is used by permission.

 

Public Offerings of Common Stock

 

On February 26, 2007, we filed an initial Registration Statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to offer up to 125,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public (the “Initial Offering”), of which 25,000,000 shares were being offered pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRP”).  The SEC declared our Registration Statement effective on January 4, 2008, and we commenced the Initial Offering on January 21, 2008.  On July 3, 2011, we ceased offering shares of common stock in the Initial Offering.  On September 29, 2011, we filed a post-effective amendment to the initial Offering registration statement to deregister 25,166,864 shares of unsold common stock in the Initial Offering.

 

Prior to termination of the Initial Offering, on September 13, 2010, we filed a second Registration Statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to register a follow-on public offering of up to 75,000,000 shares of our common stock for sale to the public (the “Follow-On Offering” and, together with the Initial Offering, the “Offerings”), of which 25,000,000 shares are being offered pursuant to the DRP.  We reserve the right to reallocate the shares we are offering between our primary offering and the DRP.  On July 5, 2011, the Follow-On Offering registration statement was declared effective by the SEC, and we commenced offering shares under the Follow-On Offering.  Through September 30, 2011, we raised gross offering

proceeds of approximately $248.9 million from the sale of approximately 25 million shares under the Initial Offering and the Follow-On Offering (collectively, the “Offerings”), including shares sold under the DRP.

 

In connection with our initial capitalization, on January 19, 2007, we issued 22,471 shares of our common stock and 1,000 shares of our convertible stock to Behringer Harvard Holdings.  As of September 30, 2011, we had 24,576,034 shares of common stock outstanding, which includes the 22,471 shares issued to Behringer Harvard Holdings.  As of September 30, 2011, we had 1,000 shares of convertible stock issued and outstanding to Behringer Harvard Holdings.

 

We commenced operations on April 1, 2008 upon satisfaction of the conditions of our escrow agreement and our acceptance of initial subscriptions of common stock in the Initial Offering.  Upon admission of new stockholders, subscription proceeds are used for payment of dealer manager fees and selling commissions and may be utilized as consideration for investments and the payment or reimbursement of offering expenses and operating expenses.  Until required for such purposes, net offering proceeds are held in short-term, liquid investments.  We are currently using the net proceeds from the Offerings primarily to acquire real estate and real estate-related assets consistent with our opportunistic investment strategy.  As of September 30, 2011, we had issued 25,037,007 shares of our common stock, including 22,471 shares owned by Behringer Harvard Holdings, and 1,677,217 shares issued through the DRP.  As of September 30, 2011, we had redeemed 460,973 shares of our common stock.

 

Our common stock is not currently listed on a national securities exchange.  Depending upon the prevailing market conditions, it is our intention to consider beginning the process of liquidating our assets and distributing the net proceeds to our stockholders within three to six years after the termination of the Initial Offering.  If we do not begin an orderly liquidation within that period, we may seek to have our shares listed on a national securities exchange.

 

2.                                      Interim Unaudited Financial Information

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, which was filed with the SEC on March 30, 2011.

 

The results for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of future financial results.  The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2011, the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 and consolidated statements of equity and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 have not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly present our consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and our consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.  Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

 

3.                                      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  These estimates include such items as purchase price allocation for real estate acquisitions, impairment of long-lived assets, depreciation and amortization, and allowance for doubtful accounts.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

 

Our consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of other subsidiaries over which we have control.  All inter-company transactions, balances, and profits have been eliminated in consolidation.  Interests in entities acquired will be evaluated based on applicable GAAP, which includes the requirement to consolidate entities deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIE”) in which we are the primary beneficiary.  If the interest in the entity is determined not to be a VIE, then the entity will be evaluated for consolidation based on legal form, economic substance, and the extent to which we have control and/or substantive participating rights under the respective ownership agreement.  In the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, all dollar and share amounts in tabulation are in thousands of dollars and shares, respectively, unless otherwise noted.

 

There are judgments and estimates involved in determining if an entity in which we have made an investment is a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary.  The entity is evaluated to determine if it is a VIE by, among other

things, calculating the percentage of equity being risked compared to the total equity of the entity.  Determining expected future losses involves assumptions of various possibilities of the results of future operations of the entity, assigning a probability to each possibility and using a discount rate to determine the net present value of those future losses.  A change in the judgments, assumptions, and estimates outlined above could result in consolidating an entity that should not be consolidated or accounting for an investment using the equity method that should in fact be consolidated, the effects of which could be material to our financial statements.

 

We have evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure in our consolidated financial statements.

 

Real Estate

 

Upon the acquisition of real estate properties, we recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest as of the acquisition date, measured at their respective fair values.  The acquisition date is the date on which we obtain control of the real estate property.  The assets acquired and liabilities assumed may consist of buildings, any assumed debt, identified intangible assets and asset retirement obligations.  Identified intangible assets generally consist of the above-market and below-market leases, in-place leases, in-place tenant improvements and tenant relationships.  Goodwill is recognized as of the acquisition date and measured as the aggregate fair value of the consideration transferred and any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired.  Likewise, a bargain purchase gain is recognized in current earnings when the aggregate fair value of the consideration transferred and any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired.  Acquisition-related costs are expensed in the period incurred.  Initial valuations are subject to change until our information is finalized, which is no later than twelve months from the acquisition date.

 

We determine the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases for acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of current market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to (a) the remaining non-cancelable lease term for above-market leases, or (b) the remaining non-cancelable lease term plus any below-market fixed rate renewal option for below-market leases.  We record the fair value of above-market and below-market leases as intangible assets or intangible liabilities, respectively, and amortize them as an adjustment to rental income over the above determined lease term.

 

The total value of identified real estate intangible assets acquired is further allocated between in-place lease values and tenant relationships based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and our overall relationship with that respective tenant.  The aggregate value of in-place leases acquired and tenant relationships is determined by applying a fair value model.  The estimates of fair value of in-place leases include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods for the respective spaces, considering current market conditions.  In estimating fair value of in-place leases, we consider items such as real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses, as well as lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up period and carrying costs that would have otherwise been incurred had the leases not been in place, including tenant improvements and commissions.  The estimates of the fair value of tenant relationships also include costs to execute similar leases, including leasing commissions, legal costs and tenant improvements, as well as an estimate of the likelihood of renewal as determined by management on a tenant-by-tenant basis.

 

We amortize the value of in-place leases to expense over the term of the respective leases.  The value of tenant relationship intangibles is amortized to expense over the initial term and any anticipated renewal periods, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building.  Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and tenant relationship intangibles is charged to expense.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

We consider investments in highly liquid money market funds or investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents reported on the balance sheet approximates fair value.

 

Restricted Cash

 

As required by our lenders, restricted cash is held in escrow accounts for anticipated capital expenditures, real estate taxes and other reserves for our consolidated properties.  Capital reserves are typically utilized for non-operating expenses such as tenant improvements, leasing commissions and major capital expenditures.  Alternatively, a lender may require its own formula for an escrow of capital reserves.

 

Investment Impairment

 

For all of our real estate and real estate related investments, we monitor events and changes in circumstances indicating that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets may not be recoverable.  Examples of the types of events and circumstances that would cause management to assess our assets for potential impairment include, but are not limited to:  a significant decrease in the market price of an asset; a significant adverse change in the manner in which the asset is being used; an accumulation of costs in excess of the acquisition basis plus construction of the property; major vacancies and the resulting loss of revenues; natural disasters; a change in the projected holding period; legitimate purchase offers and changes in the global and local markets or economic conditions.  Our assets may at times be concentrated in limited geographic locations and, to the extent that our portfolio is concentrated in limited geographic locations, downturns specifically related to such regions may result in tenants defaulting on their lease obligations at a portion of our properties within a short time period, which may result in asset impairments.  When such events or changes in circumstances are present, we assess potential impairment by comparing estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated over the life of the asset and from its eventual disposition to the carrying amount of the asset.  In the event that the carrying amount exceeds the estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to adjust the carrying amount of the asset to estimated fair value.  We consider projected future undiscounted cash flows, trends, strategic decisions

regarding future development plans, and other factors in our assessment of whether impairment conditions exist.  While we believe our estimates of future cash flows are reasonable, different assumptions regarding factors such as market rents, economic conditions, and occupancy rates could significantly affect these estimates.

 

In evaluating our investments for impairment, management may use appraisals and make estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the projected date of disposition of the properties, the estimated future cash flows of the properties during our ownership, and the projected sales price of each of the properties.  A future change in these estimates and assumptions could result in understating or overstating the carrying value of our investments, which could be material to our financial statements.

 

We believe the carrying value of our operating real estate is currently recoverable.  Accordingly, there were no impairment charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 or 2010.  However, if market conditions worsen beyond our current expectations, or if changes in our strategy significantly affect any key assumptions used in our fair value calculations, we may need to take charges in future periods for impairments related to our existing investments.  Any such non-cash charges would have an adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize rental income generated from leases on real estate assets on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases, including the effect of rent holidays, if any.  Straight-line rental revenue of $0.1 million and $0.3 million was recognized in rental revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.  Straight-line rental revenue of $0.1 million was recognized in rental revenues for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.  Net below market lease amortization of less than $0.1 million and $0.3 million was recognized in rental revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.  Net below market lease amortization of $0.2 million and $0.7 million was recognized in rental revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.

 

Hotel revenue is derived from the operations of the Courtyard Kauai at Coconut Beach Hotel, consisting of guest room, food and beverage, and other revenue, and is recognized as the services are rendered.

 

We recognize interest income from real estate loans receivable on an accrual basis over the life of the loan using the interest method.  Direct loan origination fees and origination or acquisition costs, as well as acquisition premiums or discounts, are amortized over the life of the loan as an adjustment to interest income.  We will cease accruing interest on loans when there is concern as to the ultimate collection of principal or interest of the loan.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable primarily consisted of a receivable of $7.1 million for the proceeds from the sale of Inland Empire Distribution Center due to us from the unconsolidated joint venture, receivables from our tenants related to our consolidated properties of $0.8 million and straight-line rental revenue receivables of $0.8 million as of September 30, 2011.  The proceeds from the sale of Inland Empire Distribution Center were received subsequent to September 30, 2011.  As of December 31, 2010, accounts receivable primarily consisted of receivables from our tenants related to our consolidated properties of $0.8 million and straight-line rental revenue receivables of $0.4 million.

 

Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment

 

Furniture, fixtures, and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of five to seven years.  Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred while improvements to such assets are capitalized.  Accumulated depreciation associated with our furniture, fixtures, and equipment was $1.2 million and $0.3 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

 

Deferred Financing Fees

 

Deferred financing fees are recorded at cost and are amortized to interest expense of our notes payable using a straight-line method that approximates the effective interest method over the life of the related debt.  Accumulated amortization of deferred financing fees was $1.2 million and $0.4 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Our objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks and to minimize the variability caused by foreign currency translation risk related to our net investment in foreign real estate.  To accomplish these objectives, we use various types of derivative instruments to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate of

 

11

(Unaudited)

 

LIBOR.  These instruments include LIBOR-based interest rate swaps and caps.  For our net investments in foreign real estate, we may use foreign exchange put/call options to eliminate the impact of foreign currency exchange movements on our financial position.

 

We measure our derivative instruments and hedging activities at fair value and record them as an asset or liability, depending on our rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract.  For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, the changes in the fair value of both the derivative instrument and the hedged items are recorded in earnings.  Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.  For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portions of changes in fair value of the derivatives are reported in other comprehensive income (loss) and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings.  We assess the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in fair value or cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in fair value or cash flows of the designated hedged item or transaction.

 

As of September 30, 2011, we do not have any derivatives designated as net investment hedges or fair value hedges.  No derivatives were being used for trading or speculative purposes.  See Notes 5 and 13 for further information regarding our derivative financial instruments.

 

Organization and Offering Expenses

 

We reimburse the Advisor or its affiliates for any organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) incurred on our behalf in connection with the primary offering component of the Offerings.  In connection with the Initial Offering, we reimbursed the Advisor for $7.5 million of organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) that it had incurred on our behalf.  On October 9, 2009, the Advisor waived $3.5 million of organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) it had incurred on our behalf through December 31, 2008.  On July 5, 2011, in connection with the Follow-On Offering, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Advisory Management Agreement with the Advisor.  Pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement, we will not reimburse the Advisor for any additional organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) incurred on our behalf in connection with the primary offering until the completion of our Follow-On Offering.

 

Upon completion of the Follow-On Offering, the Advisor will reimburse us to the extent that the total amount spent on organization and offering expenses in the Offerings (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) exceeds 1.5% of the gross proceeds raised in the primary component of the Offerings; however, if we have reimbursed the Advisor less than 1.5% of the gross proceeds raised in the primary component of the Offerings, we will reimburse the Advisor for any additional organization and offering expenses it incurs up to the 1.5% limit.  We have limited the amount of organization and offering reimbursement accruals to amounts we currently expect to have to dispense.  Based on our current review of projected gross proceeds from our Offerings, we have booked a receivable from the Advisor for $2.3 million of organization and offering expenses that were previously reimbursed to the Advisor.

 

Organization and offering expenses are defined generally as any and all costs and expenses incurred by us in connection with our formation, preparing for the Offerings, the qualification and registration of the Offerings, and the marketing and distribution of our shares.  Organization and offering expenses include, but are not limited to, accounting and legal fees; costs to amend the registration statement and supplement the prospectus; printing, mailing and distribution costs; filing fees; amounts to reimburse our Advisor or its affiliates for the salaries of employees; and other costs in connection with preparing supplemental sales literature; telecommunication costs; fees of the transfer agent, registrars, trustees, escrow holders, depositories and experts; and fees and costs for employees of our Advisor or its affiliates to attend industry conferences.

 

All offering costs are recorded as an offset to additional paid-in capital, and all organization costs are recorded as an expense at the time we become liable for the payment of these amounts.

Income Taxes

 

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and have qualified as a REIT since the year ended December 31, 2008.  To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders.  As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax at the corporate level.  We are organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code and intend to continue to operate in such a manner, but no assurance can be given that we will operate in a manner so as to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT.

 

We have reviewed our tax positions under GAAP guidance that clarifies the relevant criteria and approach for the recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions.  The guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return.  A tax position may only be recognized in the financial statements if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination.  We believe it is more likely than not that the tax positions taken relative to our status as a REIT will be sustained in any tax examination.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

For our international investment where the functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, assets and liabilities are translated using period-end exchange rates, while the statement of operations amounts are translated using the average exchange rates for the respective period.  Differences arising from the translation of assets and liabilities in comparison with the translation of the previous periods or from initial recognition during the period are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”).

 

The Euro is the functional currency for the operations of Holstenplatz.  We also maintain a Euro-denominated bank account that is translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate at the last day of each reporting period.  The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of AOCI in our consolidated statement of equity.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the foreign currency translation adjustment was a gain of $0.1 million.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the foreign currency translation adjustment was a gain of $0.4 million.

 

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

AOCI, which is reported in the accompanying consolidated statement of equity, consists of gains and losses affecting equity that are excluded from net income (loss) under GAAP.  The components of AOCI consist of cumulative foreign currency translation gains and losses and the unrealized gain on derivative instruments.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

We have adopted a stock-based incentive award plan for our directors and consultants and for employees, directors and consultants of our affiliates.  We have not issued any stock-based awards under the plan as of September 30, 2011.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents deposited in certain financial institutions in excess of federally insured levels.  We have diversified our cash and cash equivalents among several banking institutions in an attempt to minimize exposure to any one of these entities.  We regularly monitor the financial stability of these financial institutions and believe that we are not exposed to any significant credit risk in cash and cash equivalents or restricted cash.

 

Noncontrolling Interest

 

Noncontrolling interest represents the noncontrolling ownership interest’s proportionate share of the equity in our consolidated real estate investments.  Income and losses are allocated to noncontrolling interest holders based on their ownership percentage.

 

Earnings per Share

 

Net income (loss) per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period.  The weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted income (loss) per share were the same for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

Reportable Segments

 

GAAP establishes standards for reporting financial and descriptive information about an enterprise’s reportable segments.  We have determined that we have one reportable segment, with activities related to the ownership, development and management of real estate assets.  Our chief operating decision maker evaluates operating performance on an individual property level.  Therefore, our properties are aggregated into one reportable segment.

 

4.                                      New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2011, the FASB issued further clarification on when a loan modification or restructuring is considered a troubled debt restructuring. In determining whether a loan modification represents a troubled debt restructuring, an entity should consider whether the debtor is experiencing financial difficulty and the lender has granted a concession to the borrower. This guidance is to be applied retrospectively, with early application permitted.  This guidance was effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements or disclosures.

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance for fair value measurements.  The guidance amends existing guidance to provide common fair value measurements and related disclosure requirements between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards.  This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine if it will have a material impact on our financial statements or disclosures.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance related to comprehensive income.  The guidance requires registrants to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Additionally, registrants will be required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statements where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011.  Early adoption is permitted.  Our current presentation complies with the guidance of this new standard.

 

5.                                      Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

 

Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy) has been established.

 

Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that we have the ability to access.  Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.  Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.  Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity.  In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.  Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

 

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

 

Currently, we use interest rate swaps and caps to manage our interest rate risk.  The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative.  This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, implied volatilities, and foreign currency exchange rates.

 

We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.  Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation

(Unaudited)

 

adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties.  However, as of September 30, 2011, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives.  As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

The following fair value hierarchy table presents information about our assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

6.                                      Fair Value Disclosure of Financial Instruments

 

We determined the following disclosure of estimated fair values using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies.  However, considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop the related estimates of fair value.  The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

 

As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, management estimated that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other liabilities, payables/receivables from related parties, and distributions payable were at amounts that reasonably approximated their fair value based on their highly-liquid nature and/or short-term maturities and the carrying value of real estate loans receivable reasonably approximated fair value based on expected interest rates for notes to similar borrowers with similar terms and remaining maturities.  We had no real estate loans receivable as of September 30, 2011.

 

The notes payable of $205.1 million and $175.4 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, have a fair value of approximately $209.4 million and $178.5 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, based upon interest rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities that management believes we could obtain.

In September 2011, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell Archibald Business Center to an unaffiliated third party for a contract sales price of approximately $15 million.  We expect the sale to close by the end of the year, however there is no guarantee that the sale will close.  We do not believe that Archibald Business Center meets the criteria of a held for sale property as of September 30, 2011.

 

Real Estate Asset Acquisitions

 

Babcock Self Storage

 

On August 30, 2011, we acquired, through a joint venture a 537 unit self storage facility located in San Antonio, Texas (“Babcock Self Storage”) for approximately $3.5 million, excluding closing costs, from an unaffiliated third party.  Our ownership interest in the joint venture is 85%.  In connection with the purchase, the joint venture entered into an acquisition loan from an unaffiliated lender secured by the self storage facility for $2.3 million.  The loan bears interest at 5.8% per annum and requires monthly payments of principal and interest.  The loan matures on August 30, 2018.

 

Babcock Self Storage contributed rental revenue of less than $0.1 million and a GAAP net loss of $0.2 million to our consolidated statements of operations for the period from August 30, 2011 through September 30, 2011.  The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated information as if the business combination had occurred on January 1, 2010:

River Club and the Townhomes at River Club (formerly referred to as the UGA Portfolio)

 

On April 25, 2011, we acquired, through a joint venture a 1,128-bed student housing portfolio located near the University of Georgia campus in Athens, Georgia (“River Club and the Townhomes at River Club”) for approximately $32.8 million, excluding closing costs, from an unaffiliated third party.  Our ownership interest in the joint venture is 85%.  In connection with the purchase, the joint venture entered into two mortgage loan agreements with an unaffiliated third party secured by the student housing portfolio for $17.7 million and $7.5 million.  The loans bear interest at 5.26% per annum and require monthly interest-only payments through May 2013, followed by monthly principal and interest payments.  The loans mature on May 1, 2018 and may be prepaid in whole, but not in part, subject to a prepayment premium if repayment is made prior to November 2017.

Real Estate Asset Dispositions

 

PAL Loan

 

The debtor associated with the PAL Loan (as defined below) exercised its option to prepay the entire balance of the loan on August 15, 2011.  The payoff of the real estate loan receivable included principal of $25 million, accrued but unpaid interest of approximately $4 million, and a $1 million fee for early prepayment, which was recognized as Other income (expense) on our consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.

 

8.             Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture

 

On September 22, 2011, Inland Empire Distribution Center, in which we held an unconsolidated 16% interest, was sold to an unrelated third party, resulting in sales proceeds to us of approximately $7.1 million.  The proceeds from the sale of Inland Empire Distribution Center were received subsequent to September 30, 2011.  Included in equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated joint ventures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 is $3.3 million which represents our portion of the gain on the sale of Inland Empire Distribution Center.  As of September 30, 2011, we had no investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.  The following table presents certain information about our unconsolidated investment as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

9.             Variable Interest Entities

 

GAAP requires the consolidation of VIEs in which an enterprise has a controlling financial interest.  A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Our interest in VIEs may be in the form of (1) equity ownership and/or (2) loans provided by us to a VIE, or other partner.  We examine specific criteria and use judgment when determining if we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE.  Factors considered in determining whether we are the primary beneficiary include risk and reward sharing, experience and financial condition of other partner(s), voting rights, involvement in day-to-day capital and operating decisions, representation on a VIE’s executive committee, existence of unilateral kick-out rights or voting rights, level of economic disproportionality between us and the other partner(s), and contracts to purchase assets from VIEs.

 

PAL Loan

 

On August 14, 2009, we entered into a loan agreement with an unaffiliated third party borrower to provide up to $25 million of second lien financing for the privatization of, and improvements to, approximately 3,200 hotel lodging units on ten U.S. Army installations, (the “PAL Loan”).  On August 15, 2011, the debtor associated with the PAL Loan exercised its option to prepay the entire balance of the loan.

 

At September 30, 2011 we had no interest in VIEs or associated exposure to loss.  Our recorded investment in VIEs as of December 31, 2010 that were unconsolidated and our maximum exposure to loss were as follows:

At September 30, 2011, our notes payable balance was $205.1 million and consisted of the notes payable related to our consolidated properties.  We have unconditionally guaranteed payment of the note payable related to 1875 Lawrence for an amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) $11.75 million and (ii) 50% of the total amount advanced under the loan agreement if the aggregate amount advanced is less than $23.5 million.  We have guaranteed payment of certain recourse liabilities with respect to certain nonrecourse carveouts as set forth in the guaranties in favor of the unaffiliated lenders with respect to the notes payable related to Palms of Monterrey and the Courtyard Kauai at Coconut Beach Hotel.

 

We are subject to customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants and representations, warranties and borrowing conditions, all as set forth in the loan agreements.  As of September 30, 2011, we believe we were in compliance with the covenants under our loan agreements.

12.          Leasing Activity

 

                Future minimum base rental payments due to us under non-cancelable leases in effect as of September 30, 2011 for our consolidated properties are as follows:

The schedule above does not include rental payments due to us from our multifamily properties, as leases associated with these properties typically are for periods of one year or less and are cancelable.  As of September 30, 2011, none of our tenants accounted for 10% or more of our aggregate annual rental revenues from our consolidated properties.

 

13.          Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

 

We may be exposed to the risk associated with variability of interest rates that might impact our cash flows and the results of operations.  The hedging strategy of entering into interest rate caps and swaps, therefore, is to eliminate or reduce, to the extent possible, the volatility of cash flows.

 

In October 2010, we entered into an interest rate cap agreement related to the debt on the Courtyard Kauai at Coconut Beach Hotel, and in November 2010, we entered into an interest rate cap agreement related to our debt on Interchange Business Center.

 

Derivative instruments classified as assets were reported at their combined fair values of less than $0.1 million and $0.4 million in prepaid expenses and other assets at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded an unrealized loss of $0.3 million to AOCI in our statement of equity to adjust the carrying amount of the interest rate caps qualifying as hedges at September 30, 2011.  As we had no derivative instruments on September 30, 2010, there was no unrealized gain or loss recorded to AOCI in our statement of equity to adjust the carrying amount of interest rate caps qualifying as hedges for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

 

The following table summarizes the notional values of our derivative financial instruments.  The notional values provide an indication of the extent of our involvement in these instruments, but do not represent exposure to credit, interest rate, or market risks:

Our operating leases consist of ground leases on each of eight buildings acquired in connection with the purchase of the Original Florida MOB Portfolio.  Each ground lease is for a term of 50 years, with a 25-year extension option.  The annual payment for each ground lease increases by 10% every five years.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we incurred less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in lease expense related to our ground leases.  We had no ground lease expense for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2010.  Future minimum lease payments for all operating leases from September 30, 2011 are as follows:

15.          Distributions

 

Distributions are authorized at the discretion of our board of directors based on its analysis of our performance over the previous periods and expectations of performance for future periods.  These analyses may include actual and anticipated operating cash flow, changes in market capitalization rates for investments suitable for our portfolio, capital expenditure needs, general financial and market conditions and other factors that our board deems relevant.  The board’s decision will be influenced, in substantial part, by its obligation to ensure that we maintain our status as a REIT.  In light of the continued uncertainty in the global financial and real estate markets, we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to achieve expected cash flows necessary to continue to pay distributions at any particular level, or at all.  If the current economic conditions continue, our board could determine to reduce our current distribution rate or cease paying distributions in order to conserve cash.

 

Until proceeds from the Offerings are fully invested and generating sufficient operating cash flow to fully fund the payment of distributions to our stockholders, we have paid and will continue to pay some or all of our distributions from sources other than operating cash flow.  We may, for example, generate cash to pay distributions from financing activities, components of which may include proceeds from the Offerings and borrowings (including borrowings secured by our assets) in anticipation of future operating cash flow.  We may also utilize cash from dispositions, including the components of which may represent a return of capital and/or the gains on sale.  In addition, from time to time, our Advisor may agree to waive or defer all or a portion of the acquisition, asset management or other fees or incentives due to it, pay general administrative expenses or otherwise supplement investor returns in order to increase the amount of cash that we have available to pay distributions to our stockholders.

Total distributions of $8.8 million were paid to stockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  Distributions funded through the issuance of shares under the DRP during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $5.9 million.  Accordingly, cash amounts distributed to stockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $2.9 million and were funded from cash flow provided by operations.  Total distributions of $6.6 million were paid to stockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  Distributions funded through the issuance of shares under the DRP during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $4.6 million.  Accordingly, cash amounts distributed to stockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were approximately $2 million.  A portion of the $2 million of cash distributions to stockholders during the first quarter of 2011 were funded from cash flow provided by operations.  The remaining cash distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, were funded from proceeds from the Initial Offering.  Future distributions declared and paid may exceed cash flow from operating activities until such time as we invest in additional real estate or real estate-related assets at favorable yields and our investments reach stabilization.

 

Distributions paid to stockholders are funded through various sources, including cash flow provided by operating activities, proceeds raised as part of our Offerings, reinvestment through our DRP and additional borrowings.  The following summarizes certain information related to the sources of recent distributions:

On July 5, 2011, we entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement with Behringer Securities LP (“Behringer Securities”) pursuant to which Behringer Securities will act as our dealer manager in connection with the Follow-On Offering.  The terms of the Dealer Manager Agreement are the same in all material respects as the terms of the agreement entered with Behringer Securities dated January 4, 2008 pursuant to which Behringer Securities acted as the dealer manager for the Initial Offering.

 

Behringer Securities receives commissions of up to 7% of gross offering proceeds.  Behringer Securities reallows 100% of selling commissions earned to participating broker-dealers.  In addition, we pay Behringer Securities a dealer manager fee of up to 2.5% of gross offering proceeds.  Pursuant to separately negotiated agreements, Behringer Securities may reallow a portion of its dealer manager fee in an aggregate amount up to 2% of gross offering proceeds to broker-dealers participating in the Offerings; provided, however, that Behringer Securities may reallow, in the aggregate, no more than 1.5% of gross offering proceeds for marketing fees and expenses, conference fees and non-itemized, non-invoiced due diligence efforts and no more than 0.5% of gross offering proceeds for out-of-pocket and bona fide, separately invoiced due diligence expenses incurred as fees, costs or other expenses from third parties.  Further, in special cases pursuant to separately negotiated agreements and subject to applicable limitations imposed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Behringer Securities may use a portion of its dealer manager fee to reimburse certain broker-dealers participating in the Offerings for technology costs and expenses associated with the Offerings and costs and expenses associated with the facilitation of the marketing and ownership of our shares by such broker-dealers’ customers.  No selling commissions, dealer manager fees or organization and offering expenses are paid for sales under the DRP.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, Behringer Securities earned selling commissions and dealer manager fees of $1.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, which were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, Behringer Securities earned selling commissions and dealer manager fees of $4.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively, which were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.

 

We reimburse the Advisor or its affiliates for any organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) incurred on our behalf in connection with the primary offering component of the Offerings.  In connection with the Initial Offering, we reimbursed the Advisor for $7.5 million of organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and dealer manager fees) that it had incurred on our behalf since January 1, 2009.  On October 9, 2009, the Advisor waived the reimbursement of $3.5 million of organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) the Advisor incurred on our behalf through December 31, 2008.  The Advisor wrote off the $3.5 million of organization and offering expenses in the fourth quarter of 2009, which reduced the outstanding balance payable to affiliates and increased our additional paid-in capital.  On July 5, 2011, in connection with the Follow-On Offering, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Advisory Management Agreement with the Advisor.  Pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement, we will not reimburse the Advisor for any additional organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) incurred on our behalf until the completion of our Follow-On Offering.

 

Upon completion of the Follow-On Offering, the Advisor will reimburse us to the extent that the total amount spent on organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) in the Offerings exceeds 1.5% of the gross proceeds raised in the primary component of the Offerings; however, if we have not reimbursed the Advisor in excess of 1.5% of the gross proceeds raised in the Offerings, we will reimburse the Advisor for any additional organization and offering expenses it incurs up to the 1.5% limit.  We have limited the amount of organization and offering expense reimbursement accruals to amounts we currently expect to have to dispense.  Based on our current review of projected gross proceeds from our Offerings, we have booked a receivable from the Advisor for $2.3 million of organization and offering expenses that were previously reimbursed to the Advisor.

 

Since our inception through September 30, 2011, approximately $15.5 million of organization and offering expenses was incurred by the Advisor or its affiliates on our behalf.  Of this amount, $3.5 million was written off and $7.5 million has been reimbursed by us.  As of September 30, 2011, we had no amounts payable to the Advisor for organization and offering expenses.  The total we are required to remit to the Advisor for organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) is limited to 1.5% of the gross proceeds raised in the completed primary offering components of the Offerings as determined upon completion of the Offerings.  The Advisor or its affiliates determines the amount of organization and offering expenses owed based on specific invoice identification, as well as an allocation of costs to us and other Behringer Harvard programs, based on respective equity offering results of those entities in offering.

 

The Advisor or its affiliates will also receive acquisition and advisory fees of 2.5% of the amount paid and/or in respect of the purchase, development, construction, or improvement of each asset we acquire, including any debt attributable to those assets.  The Advisor and its affiliates will also receive acquisition and advisory fees of 2.5% of the funds advanced in

respect of a loan or other investment.  We incurred acquisition and advisory fees payable to the Advisor of $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  We incurred acquisition and advisory fees payable to the Advisor of $2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

 

The Advisor or its affiliates also receive an acquisition expense reimbursement in the amount of 0.25% of (i) the funds paid for purchasing an asset, including any debt attributable to the asset, (ii) the funds for development, construction, or improvement in the case of assets that we acquire and intend to develop, construct, or improve, and (iii) the funds advanced in respect of a loan or other investment.  In addition, to the extent the Advisor or its affiliates directly provide services formerly provided or usually provided by third parties, including, without limitation, accounting services related to the preparation of audits required by the SEC, property condition reports, title services, title insurance, insurance brokerage or environmental services related to the preparation of environmental assessments in connection with a completed investment, the direct employee costs and burden to the Advisor of providing these services will be acquisition expenses for which we will reimburse the Advisor.  We also pay third parties, or reimburse the Advisor or its affiliates, for any investment-related expenses due to third parties in the case of a completed investment, including, but not limited to, legal fees and expenses, travel and communication expenses, costs of appraisals, accounting fees and expenses, third-party brokerage or finder’s fees, title insurance, premium expenses, and other closing costs.  In addition, acquisition expenses for which we will reimburse the Advisor, include any payments made to (i) a prospective seller of an asset, (ii) an agent of a prospective seller of an asset, or (iii) a party that has the right to control the sale of an asset intended for investment by us that are not refundable and that are not ultimately applied against the purchase price for such asset.  Except as described above with respect to services customarily or previously provided by third parties, the Advisor is responsible for paying all of the expenses it incurs associated with persons employed by the Advisor to the extent that they are dedicated to making investments for us, such as wages and benefits of the investment personnel.  The Advisor and its affiliates are also responsible for paying all of the investment-related expenses that we or the Advisor or its affiliates incur that are due to third parties or related to the additional services provided by the Advisor as described above with respect to investments we do not make, other than certain non-refundable payments made in connection with any acquisition.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, we incurred acquisition expense reimbursements of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

 

We pay the Advisor or its affiliates a debt financing fee of 1% of the amount available under any loan or line of credit made available to us.  It is anticipated that the Advisor will pay some or all of these fees to third parties with whom it subcontracts to coordinate financing for us.  We incurred debt financing fees of $0.2 million and $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

 

We pay the Advisor or its affiliates a development fee in an amount that is usual and customary for comparable services rendered to similar projects in the geographic market of the project if such affiliate provides the development services and if a majority of our independent directors determines that such development fee is fair and reasonable and on terms and conditions not less favorable than those available from unaffiliated third parties.  We incurred no such fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 or 2010.

 

We pay our property manager and affiliate of the Advisor, Behringer Harvard Opportunity II Management Services, LLC (“BHO II Management”), or its affiliates, fees for the management, leasing, and construction supervision of our properties.  Property management fees are 4.5% of the gross revenues of the properties managed by BHO II Management or its affiliates, plus leasing commissions based upon the customary leasing commission applicable to the same geographic location of the respective property.  In the event that we contract directly with a third-party property manager in respect of a property, BHO II Management or its affiliates receives an oversight fee equal to 0.5% of the gross revenues of the property managed.  In no event will BHO II Management or its affiliates receive both a property management fee and an oversight fee with respect to any particular property.  In the event we own a property through a joint venture that does not pay BHO II Management directly for its services, we will pay BHO II Management a management fee or oversight fee, as applicable, based only on our economic interest in the property.  We incurred and expensed property management fees or oversight fees to BHO II Management of approximately $0.2 million for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

 

We pay the Advisor or its affiliates a monthly asset management fee of one-twelfth of 1.0% of the sum of the higher of the cost or value of each asset.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, we expensed $2.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively, of asset management fees.

 

We reimburse the Advisor or its affiliates for all expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor in connection with the services provided to us, subject to the limitation that we will not reimburse the Advisor for any amount by which our operating expenses (including the asset management fee) at the end of the four preceding fiscal quarters exceeds the greater of:  (i) 2% of our average invested assets, or (ii) 25% of our net income determined without reduction for any additions to reserves for depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves and excluding any gain from the sale of our assets for

that period.  Notwithstanding the above, we may reimburse the Advisor for expenses in excess of this limitation if a majority of our independent directors determines that such excess expenses are justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, we incurred and expensed such costs for administrative services of $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

 

We are dependent on Behringer Securities, the Advisor, and BHO II Management for certain services that are essential to us, including the sale of shares of our common stock, asset acquisition and disposition decisions, property management and leasing services, and other general administrative responsibilities.  In the event that these companies were unable to provide us with their respective services, we would be required to obtain such services from other sources.

Item 2.                                                         Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our accompanying financial statements and the notes thereto.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  These forward-looking statements include discussion and analysis of the financial condition of Behringer Harvard Opportunity REIT II, Inc. and our subsidiaries (which may be referred to herein as the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), including our ability to rent space on favorable terms, to address our debt maturities and to fund our liquidity requirements, the value of our assets, our anticipated capital expenditures, the amount and timing of anticipated future cash distributions to our stockholders, the estimated per share value of our common stock and other matters.  Words such as “may,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “could,” “should” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

 

These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but reflect the intent, belief or current expectations of our management based on their knowledge and understanding of the business and industry, the economy and other future conditions.  These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and we caution stockholders not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.  Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including but not limited to the factors listed and described herein and under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2011 and the factors described below:

 

·                  no trading market for our shares exists, and we can provide no assurance that one will ever develop;

 

·                  possible delays in locating suitable investments;

 

·                  our potential inability to invest in a diverse portfolio;

 

·                  investments in foreign properties are susceptible to currency exchange rate fluctuations, adverse political developments, and changes in foreign laws;

 

·                  adverse market and economic challenges experienced by the U.S. and global economies or real estate industry as a whole and the local economic conditions in the markets in which our properties are located;

 

·                  the availability of credit generally, and any failure to refinance or extend our debt as it comes due or a failure to satisfy the conditions and requirements of that debt;

 

·                  a decrease in the level of participation under our distribution reinvestment plan;

 

·                  future increases in interest rates;

 

·                  our ability to raise capital in the future by issuing additional equity or debt securities, selling our assets or otherwise;

 

·                  payment of distributions from sources other than cash flows from operating activities;

 

·                  our obligation to pay substantial fees to our Advisor and its affiliates;

 

·                  our ability to retain our executive officers and other key personnel of our Advisor, our property manager and their affiliates;

 

·                  conflicts of interest arising out of our relationships with our Advisor and its affiliates;

 

·                  unfavorable changes in laws or regulations impacting our business or our assets; and

 

·                  factors that could affect our ability to qualify as a real estate investment trust.

 

Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect our management’s view only as of the date of this Report, and may ultimately prove to be incorrect.  We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results, except as required by applicable law.  We intend for these forward-looking statements to be covered by the applicable safe harbor provisions created by Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act.

Cautionary Note

 

The representations, warranties, and covenants made by us in any agreement filed as an exhibit to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made solely for the benefit of the parties to the agreement, including, in some cases, for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties to the agreement, and should not be deemed to be representations, warranties, or covenants to or with any other parties.  Moreover, these representations, warranties or covenants should not be relied upon as accurately describing or reflecting the current state of our affairs.

 

Executive Overview

 

We were formed primarily to acquire and operate commercial real estate and real estate-related assets on an opportunistic basis.  In particular, we focus generally on acquiring commercial properties with significant possibilities for short-term capital appreciation, such as those requiring development, redevelopment or repositioning, those located in markets and submarkets with high growth potential, and those available from sellers who are distressed or face time-sensitive deadlines.  In addition, given current economic conditions, our opportunistic investment strategy may also include investments in loans secured by or related to real estate at more attractive rates of current return than have been available for some time.  Such loan investments may have capital gain characteristics, whether as a result of a discounted purchase or related equity participations.  We may acquire a wide variety of commercial properties, including office, industrial, retail, hospitality, recreation and leisure, single-tenant, multifamily, and other real properties.  These properties may be existing, income-producing properties, newly constructed properties or properties under development or construction.  They may include multifamily properties purchased for conversion into condominiums or single-tenant properties that may be converted for multi-tenant use.  We may invest in real estate-related securities, including securities issued by other real estate companies, either for investment or in change of control transactions completed on a negotiated basis or otherwise.  Further, we may originate or invest in collateralized mortgage-backed securities, mortgage, bridge or mezzanine loans, and Section 1031 tenant-in-common interests (including those issued by affiliates of our Advisor), or in entities that make investments similar to the foregoing.  We expect to make our investments in or in respect of real estate assets located in the United States and other countries based on current market conditions.

 

On February 26, 2007, we filed an initial Registration Statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to offer up to 125,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public in the Initial Offering, of which 25,000,000 shares were being offered pursuant to our DRP.  The SEC declared our Registration Statement effective on January 4, 2008, and we commenced the Initial Offering on January 21, 2008.  Operations commenced on April 1, 2008 upon satisfaction of the conditions of our escrow agreement and acceptance of initial subscriptions of common stock.  On July 3, 2011, we ceased offering shares of common stock in the Initial Offering.  Through June 30, 2011, we raised gross offering proceeds of approximately $245.8 million from the sale of approximately 24.7 million shares, under the Initial Offering, including shares sold under the DRP.  On September 29, 2011, we filed a post-effective amendment to the initial Registration Statement to deregister 25,166,864 shares of unsold common stock in the Initial Offering.

 

Prior to termination of the Initial Offering, on September 13, 2010, we filed a second Registration Statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to register a follow-on public offering of up to 75,000,000 shares of our common stock for sale to the public in the Follow-On Offering, of which 25,000,000 shares are being offered pursuant to the DRP.  We reserve the right to reallocate the shares we are offering between our primary offering and the DRP.  On July 5, 2011, the Follow-On Offering Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC and we commenced offering shares under the Follow-on Offering.  Through September 30, 2011, we raised gross offering proceeds of approximately $248.9 million from the sale of approximately 25 million shares under the Offerings, including shares sold under the DRP.

At the beginning of the third quarter of 2011, the U.S. economy was weighed down with concerns over the U.S. debt ceiling and financial conditions in the European Union.  While these issues still remain unresolved and many economists are still split on whether the U.S. is headed for a double-dip recession, key economic fundamentals and analysts are now  pointing to less of a risk of a 2008 level recession, and more towards a longer period of moderate, uneven growth. During the third quarter, GDP growth was reported at 2.5%, with slight declines in unemployment benefits and slight increases in consumer spending and equipment and software expenditures, which while far less than levels needed for a full recovery, were positive and not declining. Further, reports that the European Union was close to a solution to recapitalize European banks indicated more optimism that a severe world-wide recession would be averted. We share the view that the U.S. economy will face a protracted period of slow growth.

 

As an owner of office and industrial real estate properties, the majority of our income and cash flow is derived from rental revenue received pursuant to tenant leases for space at our properties.  Over the past several months there has been some improvement in fundamental benchmarks such as occupancy, rental rates and pricing.  Continued improvement in these

fundamentals is dependent upon sustained economic growth.  Occupancy and rental rate stabilization will vary by market and property type.

 

The demand for health care services, and consequently health care properties, is projected to reach unprecedented levels in the near future.  The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services projects that national health care expenditures will rise to $3.5 trillion in 2015, or 18.2% of gross domestic product.  The annual growth in national health expenditures for 2009 through 2019 is expected to be 6.3%, which is 0.2% faster than pre-health care reform estimates.  While demographics are the primary driver of demand, economic conditions and availability of services contribute to health care service utilization rates.  We believe the health care property market may be less susceptible to fluctuations and economic downturns relative to other property sectors.

 

The total U.S. population is projected to increase by 20.4% through 2030.  The elderly population aged 65 and over is projected to increase by 79.2% through 2030.  The elderly are an important component of health care utilization.  Most health care services are provided within a health care facility such as a hospital, a physician’s office or a senior housing facility.

 

The hospitality industry is beginning to see early signs of a recovering economy.  Smith Travel Research indicates that the national overall occupancy rate for hospitality properties in the United States rose from 58.9% in the third quarter of 2010 to 66.5% in the third quarter of 2011.  The national overall Average Daily Rate has also risen, from $97.89 in the third quarter of 2010 to $102.96 in the third quarter of 2011.  This positive growth in the hospitality industry is expected to continue.

 

Although a slower U.S. economy may provide some resistance, primarily with respect to overall job growth, the favorable demand/supply fundamentals present in multifamily investments should still support reasonable growth. On the demand side, the demographics for the targeted multifamily renter, the age group from 20 to 34 years old, are still positive in the sector. This group is growing in size and while the other age segments have experienced employment declines, their aggregate employment has increased. Further, while this age group in previous economic cycles experienced increasing single family home ownership, higher credit standards for single family mortgages and more reluctance to commit to home ownership are currently leading to more rental demand. At the same time on the supply side, developments of new multifamily communities decreased substantially since 2008, such that supply has not been keeping up with demand. We believe that this demand will lead to increased development activity; however, since high quality multifamily developments can take 18 to 36 months to entitle, permit and construct, we believe there is, even in the most aggressive outlook, a continued window of limited supply. Accordingly, many analysts are still projecting continued multifamily rental growth, albeit at a slower pace. However, multifamily performance is highly correlated with job and income growth.  While the factors noted above should position the multifamily sector to perform better in a slow growth environment, eventually the multifamily sector will need stronger employment to maintain rental growth.

 

Current interest rates and the availability of multifamily financing are also favorable factors in the multifamily sector.  Five and ten year treasury rates have declined approximately 1% from their rates at December 31, 2010 to September 30, 2011. Competition for multifamily financing, particularly high quality, stabilized communities such as ours, has also added to the favorable financing environment. In addition to government sponsored entities, insurance companies and commercial banks have been aggressive lenders in our sector. While there is a risk that a downgrade of the U.S. credit rating could reverse these trends, thus far this has not occurred and with the international support provided U.S. treasuries, both during and after the debt ceiling debate, and announcements that many treasury holders would not be required to sell their positions, it would seem to indicate a more limited disruption than originally discussed.

 

Unlike traditional multi-family housing, leases for student housing properties typically commence and terminate on the same date. In the case of our typical student housing leases, this date coincides with the commencement of the fall academic term with the leases typically terminating at the completion of the last subsequent summer school session. As such, we must re-lease each property in its entirety each year, resulting in significant turnover in our tenant population from year to year. As a result, we are highly dependent upon the effectiveness of our marketing and leasing efforts during the annual leasing season that typically begins in January and ends in August of each year. Our properties’ occupancy rates are therefore typically relatively stable during the August to July academic year, but are susceptible to fluctuation at the commencement of each new academic year, which may be greater than the fluctuation in occupancy rates experienced by traditional multi-family properties.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our principal demands for funds will be for the (i) acquisition of real estate and real estate-related assets, (ii) payment of operating expenses, (iii) payment of distributions and redemptions, and (iv) payment of interest on our outstanding indebtedness.  Generally, we expect to meet cash needs for the payment of operating expenses and interest on our outstanding indebtedness from our cash flow from operations.  To the extent that our cash flow from operations is not

 

28



Table of Contents

 

sufficient to cover our operating expenses, interest on our outstanding indebtedness, redemptions or distributions, we expect to use proceeds from the Offerings and borrowings to fund such needs.

 

We continually evaluate our liquidity and ability to fund future operations and debt obligations.  As part of those analyses, we consider lease expirations and other factors.  Leases at our consolidated office and industrial properties representing 28% of our annualized base rent will expire by the end of 2012.  As a normal course of business, we are pursuing renewals, extensions and new leases.  If we are unable to renew or extend the expiring leases under similar terms or are unable to negotiate new leases, it would negatively impact our liquidity and adversely affect our ability to fund our ongoing operations.

Please see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding how tenant industry diversification may be considered in the evaluation of our investments for impairment.

 

We expect to fund our short-term liquidity requirements by using the net proceeds from the Offerings and cash flow from the operations of investments we acquire.  Operating cash flows are expected to increase as additional real estate assets are added to the portfolio and our existing portfolio stabilizes.  Although we intend to diversify our real estate portfolio, to the extent our portfolio is concentrated in certain geographic regions, types of assets, industries or business sectors, downturns relating generally to such regions, assets, industry or business sectors may result in tenants defaulting on their lease obligations at a number of our properties within a short time period.  Such defaults could negatively affect our liquidity and adversely affect our ability to fund our ongoing operations.

 

For both our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements, other potential future sources of capital may include proceeds from secured or unsecured financings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from the sale of our investments, if and when any are sold, and undistributed funds from operations or cash flow.  If necessary, we may use financings or other sources of capital in the event of unforeseen significant capital expenditures.

 

We may, but are not required to, establish capital reserves from net offering proceeds, cash flow generated by operating properties and other investments, or net sale proceeds from the sale of our properties and other investments.  Capital reserves are typically utilized for non-operating expenses such as tenant improvements, leasing commissions and major capital expenditures.  Alternatively, a lender may establish its own criteria for escrow of capital reserves.

 

We intend to borrow money to acquire properties and make other investments.  There is no limitation on the amount we may invest in any single property or other asset or on the amount we can borrow for the purchase of any individual property or other investment.  Under our charter, the maximum amount of our indebtedness is limited to 300% of our “net assets” (as defined by our charter) as of the date of any borrowing; however, we may exceed that limit if approved by a majority of our independent directors.  In addition to our charter limitation, our board of directors has adopted a policy to generally limit our aggregate borrowings to approximately 75% of the aggregate value of our assets unless substantial justification exists that borrowing a greater amount is in our best interests.  Our policy limitation, however, does not apply to individual real estate assets and will only apply once we have ceased raising capital under the Follow-On Offering or any subsequent offering and invested substantially all of our capital.  As a result, we expect to borrow more than 75% of the contract purchase price of each real estate asset we acquire during the early periods of our operations to the extent our board of directors determines that borrowing at these levels is prudent.

 

Although commercial real estate debt markets remain restricted, lending volume has increased year-over-year and secondary market debt is once again available for certain asset classes on a limited basis.  While many lenders continue to demand higher credit spreads, interest rates remain at historically low levels and debt is generally more available than in 2010.

 

Should the overall cost of borrowings increase, either by increases in the index rates or by increases in lender spreads, we will need to factor such increases into the economics of our acquisitions, developments and investments.  This may result in our investment operations generating lower overall economic returns and a reduced level of cash flow, which could potentially impact our ability to make distributions to our stockholders at current levels.  In addition, the recent

 

30



Table of Contents

 

dislocations in the debt markets have reduced the amount of capital that is available to finance real estate, which in turn: (i) leads to a decline in real estate values generally; (ii) slows real estate transaction activity; (iii) reduces the loan to value ratio upon which lenders are willing to extend debt; and (iv) results in difficulty in refinancing debt as it becomes due, all of which may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the value of real estate investments and the revenues, income or cash flow from the operations of real properties and mortgage loans.  In addition, the current state of the debt markets has negatively impacted our ability to raise equity capital.

 

Debt Financings

 

We may, from time to time, obtain mortgage, bridge or mezzanine loans for acquisitions and investments, as well as property development.  We may obtain financing at the time an asset is acquired or an investment is made or at such later time as determined to be necessary, depending on multiple factors.

 

At September 30, 2011, our notes payable balance was $205.1 million.  We have unconditionally guaranteed payment of the note payable related to 1875 Lawrence for an amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) $11.75 million and (ii) 50% of the total amount advanced under the loan agreement if the aggregate amount advanced is less than $23.5 million.  We have guaranteed payment of certain recourse liabilities with respect to certain nonrecourse carveouts as set forth in the guaranties in favor of the unaffiliated lenders with respect to the notes payable related to Palms of Monterrey and the Courtyard Kauai at Coconut Beach Hotel.  As of September 30, 2011, our outstanding balance on the notes related to these two properties was $57.7 million.  As of December 31, 2010, our outstanding note payable balance was $175.4 million.

 

Our loan agreements stipulate that we comply with certain reporting and financial covenants.  These covenants include, among other things, maintaining minimum debt service coverage ratios and liquidity.  As of September 30, 2011, we believe we were in compliance with the debt covenants under our loan agreements.

 

One of our principal long-term liquidity requirements includes the repayment of maturing debt.  The following table provides information with respect to the maturities and scheduled principal repayments of our indebtedness as of September 30, 2011.  The table does not represent any extension options ($ in thousands).

(1) Our operating leases consist of ground leases on each of eight buildings acquired in connection with the purchase of the Original Florida MOB Portfolio.  Each ground lease is for a term of 50 years, with a 25-year extension option.  The annual payment for each ground lease increases by 10% every five years. 

 

Results of Operations

 

As of September 30, 2011, we had ten real estate assets, all of which were consolidated in our consolidated balance sheet:

 

·                  1875 Lawrence, an office building located in Denver, Colorado;

 

·                  Palms of Monterrey, a 90% interest in a multifamily project located in Fort Myers, Florida in which we acquired a fee simple interest on May 10, 2010.  Prior to May 10, 2010, we were the holder of a 90% interest in a promissory note secured by a first lien mortgage on the property;

 

·                  Holstenplatz, an office building located in Hamburg, Germany;

 

·                  Archibald Business Center, an 80% interest in a corporate headquarters and industrial warehouse facility located in Ontario, California;

 

31



Table of Contents

 

·                  Parrot’s Landing, a 90% interest in a multifamily project located in North Lauderdale, Florida;

 

·                  Florida MOB Portfolio, an approximate 90% interest in a portfolio of nine medical office buildings located in south Florida;

 

·                  Courtyard Kauai at Coconut Beach Hotel, an 80% interest in an oceanfront hotel located at Waipouli Beach on the island of Kauai in Hawaii;

 

·                  Interchange Business Center, an 80% interest in a four-building Class A industrial property located in San Bernardino, California;

 

·                  River Club and the Townhomes at River Club (formerly referred to as the UGA Portfolio), an 85% interest in a 1,128-bed student housing portfolio located in Athens, Georgia; and

 

·                  Babcock Self Storage, an 85% interest in a self-storage facility located in San Antonio, Texas.

 

In September 2011, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell Archibald Business Center to an unaffiliated third party for a contract sales price of approximately $15 million.  We expect the sale to close by the end of the year, however there is no guarantee that the sale will close.  We do not believe that Archibald Business Center meets the criteria of a held for sale property as of September 30, 2011.

 

As of September 30, 2010, we had invested in seven real estate and real estate-related assets, six of which were consolidated in our consolidated financial statements:

 

·                  1875 Lawrence;

 

·                  PAL Loan;

 

·                  Palms of Monterrey;

 

·                  Holstenplatz;

 

·                  Archibald Business Center; and

 

·                  Parrot’s Landing.

 

In addition, we had a noncontrolling, unconsolidated interest in an investment that was accounted for using the equity method of accounting, a 16% interest in Inland Empire Distribution Center, a two-building industrial warehouse complex in San Bernardino, California.  On September 22, 2011, Inland Empire Distribution Center was sold to an unaffiliated third party, resulting in cash sales proceeds to us of approximately $7.1 million.  The proceeds from the sale of Inland Empire Distribution Center were received subsequent to September 30, 2011.  Included in equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated joint ventures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 is $3.3 million which represents our portion of the gain on the sale of Inland Empire Distribution Center.

 

On August 15, 2011, the debtor associated with the PAL Loan exercised its option to prepay the entire balance of the loan.

 

Three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010.

 

Revenues.  Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were $11.6 million, an increase of $7.4 million from the three months ended September 30, 2010.  The change in revenue is primarily due to:

 

·                  an increase in rental revenue of $6.3 million due to the acquisition of our newly consolidated properties in the fourth quarter of 2010 and in 2011; and

 

·                  hotel revenue of $1.9 million due to the acquisition of the Courtyard Kauai at Coconut Beach Hotel in October 2010.  We had no hotel revenue as of September 30, 2010.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we earned interest income from our real estate loan receivable of $0.4 million, all of which was related to the PAL Loan.  For the three months ended September 30, 2010, we earned $1.2 million of interest income from real estate loans receivable, $0.9 million of which was related to the PAL Loan and $0.3 million related to the Palms of Monterrey note receivable.  The debtor associated with the PAL real estate loan receivable exercised its option to prepay the entire balance of the loan on August 15, 2011.  Therefore, we expect to earn less interest income from real estate loans receivable in the future.  We expect increases in rental revenue in the future as we realize the full year effect of our real estate assets purchased in 2010and 2011 and as we purchase additional real estate properties.

 

Property Operating Expenses.  Property operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were $5.4 million and were comprised of operating expenses for the ten properties we consolidated, including $2 million related to operations at the Courtyard Kauai Coconut Beach Hotel, $1.4 million related to the Florida MOB Portfolio, 0.6 million related to River Club and the Townhomes at River Club, $0.5 million related to Parrot’s Landing, $0.4 million related to Palms of Monterrey and $0.3 million related to 1875 Lawrence.  For the three months ended September 30, 2010, property

 

32



Table of Contents

 

operating expenses were $1.1 million and were comprised of operating expenses for 1875 Lawrence, Palms of Monterrey, Holstenplatz, Archibald Business Center and Parrot’s Landing.  We expect property operating expenses to increase in the future as we realize the full year effect of our 2010 and 2011 acquisitions and as we continue building our portfolio of real estate assets.

 

Interest Expense.  Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $2.6 million as compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010.  As of September 30, 2011, our notes payable balance was $205.1 million as compared to a notes payable balance of $79 million at September 30, 2010.

 

Real Estate Taxes.  Real estate taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were $1.2 million related to our consolidated properties.  Real estate taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2010 were $0.3 million and were primarily related to 1875 Lawrence.

 

Property Management Fees.  Property management fees for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were $0.3 million, related to our consolidated properties.  Property management fees for the three months ended September 30, 2010 were $0.1 million related to 1875 Lawrence, Palms of Monterrey and Holstenplatz.

 

Asset Management Fees.   Asset management fees for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were $0.8 million and consisted of asset management fees related to our consolidated properties.  Asset management fees for the three months ended September 30, 2010 were $0.3 million and consisted of asset management fees for 1875 Lawrence, the PAL Loan, the Palms of Monterrey note receivable, Archibald Business Center and Stone Creek.

 

General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were $0.6 million, as compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, and were comprised of auditing fees, legal fees, board of directors’ fees and other administrative expenses.

 

Depreciation and Amortization Expense.  Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $3.9 million and was comprised of depreciation and amortization expense related to our consolidated properties.  Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $1.6 million and was comprised of depreciation and amortization related to 1875 Lawrence, Palms of Monterrey, Holstenplatz and Archibald Business Center.

 

Nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

 

Revenues.  Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $33.9 million, an increase of $23.9 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  The change in revenue is primarily due to:

 

·                  an increase in rental revenue of $19.9 million due to the acquisition of our newly consolidated properties in the fourth quarters of 2010 and in 2011; and

 

·                  hotel revenue of $4.9 million due to the acquisition of the Courtyard Kauai at Coconut Beach Hotel in October 2010.  We had no hotel revenue as of September 30, 2010.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we earned interest income from our real estate loan receivable of $2.9 million, all of which was related to the PAL Loan.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we earned $3.8 million of interest income from real estate loans receivable, $2.7 million of which was related to the PAL Loan and $1.1 million related to the Palms of Monterrey note receivable.  The debtor associated with the PAL real estate loan receivable exercised its option to prepay the entire balance of the loan on August 15, 2011.  Therefore, we expect to earn less interest income from real estate loans receivable in the future.  We expect increases in rental revenue in the future as we realize the full year effect of our real estate assets purchased in 2010 and 2011 and as we purchase additional real estate properties.

 

Property Operating Expenses.  Property operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $15 million and were comprised of operating expenses for the ten properties we consolidated, including $5.7 million related to operations at the Courtyard Kauai Coconut Beach Hotel, $4 million related to the Florida MOB Portfolio, $1.5 million related to Parrot’s Landing, $1.2 million related to Palms of Monterrey, $0.9 million related to 1875 Lawrence and $0.9 million related to River Club and the Townhomes at River Club.   For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, property operating expenses were $2 million and were comprised of operating expenses for 1875 Lawrence, Palms of Monterrey, Holstenplatz, Archibald Business Center and Parrot’s Landing.  We expect property operating expenses to increase in the future as we realize the full year effect of our 2010 and 2011 acquisitions and as we continue building our portfolio of real estate assets.

 

Interest Expense.  Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $7.2 million as compared to $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  As of September 30, 2011, our notes payable balance was $205.1 million as compared to a notes payable balance of $79 million as of September 30, 2010.

Real Estate Taxes.  Real estate taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $3.7 million related to our ten consolidated properties.  Real estate taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $0.7 million and were primarily related to 1875 Lawrence.

 

Property Management Fees.  Property management fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $1 million, related to our ten consolidated properties.  Property management fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $0.2 million related primarily to 1875 Lawrence, Palms of Monterrey and Holstenplatz.

 

Asset Management Fees.   Asset management fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $2.2 million and consisted of asset management fees related to our ten consolidated properties.  Asset management fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $0.7 million and consisted of asset management fees for 1875 Lawrence, the PAL Loan, the Palms of Monterrey note receivable, Archibald Business Center and Stone Creek.

 

General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $1.7 million, as compared to $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and were comprised of auditing fees, legal fees, board of directors’ fees and other administrative expenses.

 

Depreciation and Amortization Expense.  Depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $11.8 million and was comprised of depreciation and amortization expense related to our ten consolidated properties.  Depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $3.2 million and was comprised of depreciation and amortization related to 1875 Lawrence, Palms of Monterrey, Holstenplatz and Archibald Business Center.

 

Possible Special Distribution

 

Since the commencement of our Follow-On Offering, there have been significant developments related to a subset of our investment portfolio that have resulted in an opportunity to dispose of a portion of our investments earlier than originally expected.  These potential dispositions represent the ability to possibly provide substantial capital return to our stockholders.  The following is a summary of these developments:

 

·     PAL Loan:  The PAL Loan was a $25 million second mortgage loan we originally made in August 2009 to provide financing for the privatization of, and improvements to, approximately 3,200 hotel lodging units on ten U.S. Army installations.  The PAL Loan accrued interest at 18% per annum, but paid only 10% on a current basis with the remainder accrued.  On August 15, 2011, the borrower under the PAL Loan prepaid the entire outstanding principal balance of the loan.  The borrower was entitled to do so under its loan agreement by paying all accrued and unpaid interest (approximately $4 million through the prepayment date) and a prepayment penalty of $1 million.  As a result, we received approximately $30 million of gross proceeds from the early repayment of the PAL Loan.

 

·     Inland Empire Distribution Center:  Inland Empire Distribution Center was a 1.4 million square foot, two-building industrial warehouse complex located in San Bernardino, California in which we acquired a noncontrolling, unconsolidated net 16% joint venture ownership interest for approximately $3.7 million, net of closing costs, in August 2010.  This distribution center property was acquired empty and subsequently 100% leased to Hewlett Packard earlier this year.  On September 22, 2011, Inland Empire Distribution Center was sold to an unaffiliated third party, resulting in cash sales proceeds to us of approximately $7.1 million.  The proceeds from the sale of Inland Empire Distribution Center were received subsequent to September 30, 2011.  Included in equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated joint ventures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 is $3.3 million which represents our portion of the gain on the sale of Inland Empire Distribution Center.

 

·     Archibald Business Center:  The Archibald Business Center is a 231,000 square foot office-warehouse facility located in Ontario, California that we acquired in August 2010 through an 80%-owned joint venture.  We recently entered into an agreement to sell this property to an unaffiliated third party that had made an unsolicited offer to purchase this asset.  We expect to complete the sale during the fourth quarter of 2011.  If the sale is completed, we would recognize a gain in excess of 50% over the cost of the asset.

 

·     Palms of Monterrey:  The Palms of Monterrey is a 408-unit multifamily apartment complex located in Fort Myers, Florida that was acquired through a 90%-owned joint venture.  This investment was originally made through the $25.4 million purchase of a $65 million principal balance mortgage loan in default secured by the property in October 2009.  Our joint venture completed the foreclosure of the property in May 2010 and now owns the project at a gross investment cost per unit of approximately $68,400.  Recent comparable sales for multifamily projects similar to the Palms of Monterrey suggest per unit sales prices in excess of $90 thousand.  We are currently marketing this property for sale.  If we are

able to achieve a sales price that is consistent with current market indications, we would expect that we could complete a sale of the Palms of Monterrey by the first quarter of 2012.

 

These four investments represent approximately 21% of our portfolio properties based upon carrying values as of August 15, 2011.

 

As we believe that it is impractical to sell significant portions of our portfolio properties and distribute resulting proceeds while continuing with the primary portion of the Follow-On Offering, on August 15, 2011, our board of directors determined to end the active solicitation for the sale of shares in the primary portion of the Follow-On Offering on February 15, 2012.  We will continue to process subscription agreements received after the above dates and terminate all sales under the primary portion of the Follow-On Offering no later than March 15, 2012.  Offering activities could be terminated earlier in our discretion.

 

We plan to continue to offer shares under the DRP beyond the above dates.  In addition, our board of directors has the discretion to extend the offering period for the DRP until up to the sixth anniversary of the termination of the primary portion of the Follow-On Offering or until we have sold all shares available thereunder. We may also terminate the DRP offering at any time.

 

We intend to distribute substantially all of the net proceeds from the sale of Archibald Business Center and the Palms of Monterrey if the transactions describe above are completed, as well as the net proceeds from the sale of Inland Empire Distribution Center and the approximately $5 million in interest and prepayment penalty received in August 2011 as a result of the early prepayment of the PAL Loan, within 60 days after the termination of the primary component of the Follow-On Offering.  Since the PAL Loan before its repayment was, and the Palms of Monterrey and Archibald Business Center are, significant contributors to current income, we would also expect that, beginning with periods after any special distribution of proceeds from the disposition of these assets, we would adjust the regular distribution from its current 5% annualized rate to a rate more reflective of the income that can be expected to be generated from the remaining growth-focused assets in the portfolio and any other assets that we subsequently acquire.

 

The amount of return to any investor will be based on the number of shares outstanding as of the date of the special distribution and the proceeds ultimately realized from the anticipated sales. We can provide no assurances about the overall return to be realized by our stockholders over the lifetime of the Follow-On Offering.  After these transactions, the termination of the primary portion of the Follow-On Offering and the distribution of proceeds to stockholders, we intend to continue with our planned deployment of the remainder of our available investable cash into portfolio investments.  We intend to continue with our opportunistic investment strategies with the goal of positioning our portfolio for sale within our targeted fund life period.

 

If we dispose of Archibald Business Center and the Palms of Monterrey, we would experience a decrease in revenues in future periods as we would no longer receive rental revenues from these properties.  Additionally, we would experience a decrease in property operating expenses as we would no longer be responsible for the expenses related to the operations of these properties.  We would also experience decreases in real estate taxes, property management fees, asset management fees, and depreciation and amortization expense in future periods, as such fees and expenses would no longer be incurred in connection with the ownership of these properties.

 

If we distribute the net proceeds from the above-referenced transactions to our stockholders, we would have less cash available for investments in other assets, the repayment of debt financings as they become due and other corporate purposes.

Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $43.7 million, and was comprised of proceeds from notes payable, net of payments and financing costs, of $28.7 million, the issuance of common stock, net of offering costs, of $16.3 million offset by net contributions from non-controlling interest holders of $3.2 million, redemptions of common stock of $1.6 million and cash distributions to our shareholders of $2.9 million.  Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $111 million, and was comprised of proceeds from notes payable, net of financing costs, of approximately $58.1 million, the issuance of common stock, net of offering costs, of $54.2 million, redemptions of common stock of $0.6 million, cash distributions to our shareholders of $2 million and net contributions from non-controlling interest holders of $1.3 million.

 

Funds from Operations

 

Funds from operations (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance.  We use FFO, defined as net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, and gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures, subsidiaries, and noncontrolling interests, as one measure to evaluate our operating performance.

 

Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time.  Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient.  As a result, our management believes that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance.

 

We believe that FFO is helpful to investors and our management as a measure of operating performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, and extraordinary items, and as a result, when compared year to year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which is not immediately apparent from net income.

 

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), as an indication of our liquidity, or as an indication of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions, and should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements.

Provided below is additional information related to selected items included in net loss above, which may be helpful in assessing our operating results.

 

·                  Straight-line rental revenue of $0.1 million and $0.3 million was recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.  Straight-line rental revenue of $0.1 million was recognized for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.  The noncontrolling interest portion of straight-line rental revenue for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was less than $0.1 million.  There was no noncontrolling interest portion of straight-line rental revenue for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2010.

 

·                  Net above/below market lease amortization of less than $0.1 million and $0.3 million was recognized as an increase to rental revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.  Net above/below market lease amortization of $0.2 million and $0.7 million was recognized as an increase to rental revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.  The noncontrolling interest portion of net above/below market lease amortization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was less than $0.1 million.  There was no noncontrolling interest portion of net above/below market lease amortization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.

 

·                  Amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.3 million and $0.8 million was recognized as interest expense for our notes payable for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.  Amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.1 million was recognized as interest expense for our notes payable for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.

 

In addition, cash flows generated from FFO may be used to fund all or a portion of certain capitalizable items that are excluded from FFO, such as capital expenditures and payments of principal on debt, each of which may impact the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders.

 

Distributions

 

Distributions are authorized at the discretion of our board of directors based on its analysis of our performance over the previous periods and expectations of performance for future periods.  These analyses may include actual and anticipated operating cash flow, changes in market capitalization rates for investments suitable for our portfolio, capital expenditure needs, general financial and market conditions and other factors that our board deems relevant.  The board’s decision will be substantially influenced by its obligation to ensure that we maintain our status as a REIT.  In light of the continued uncertainty in the global financial and real estate markets, we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to achieve expected cash flows necessary to continue to pay distributions at any particular level, or at all.  If the current economic conditions continue, our board could determine to reduce our current distribution rate or cease paying distributions in order to conserve cash.

 

Until proceeds from the Offerings are fully invested and generating sufficient operating cash flow to fully fund the payment of distributions to our stockholders, we have paid and will continue to pay some or all of our distributions from sources other than operating cash flow.  We may, for example, generate cash to pay distributions from financing activities, components of which may include proceeds from the Offerings and borrowings (including borrowings secured by our assets) in anticipation of future operating cash flow.  We may also utilize cash from dispositions, including the components of which may represent a return of capital and/or the gains on sale.  In addition, from time to time, our Advisor may agree to waive or defer all or a portion of the acquisition, asset management or other fees or incentives due to it, pay general administrative expenses or otherwise supplement investor returns in order to increase the amount of cash that we have available to pay distributions to our stockholders.

 

Total distributions of $8.8 million were paid to stockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  Distributions funded through the issuance of shares under the DRP during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $5.9 million.  Accordingly, cash amounts distributed to stockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $2.9 million and were funded from cash provided by operations.  Total distributions of $6.6 million were paid to stockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  Distributions funded through the issuance of shares under the DRP during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $4.6 million.  Accordingly, cash amounts distributed to stockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were approximately $2 million.  A portion of the $2 million of cash distributions to stockholders during the first quarter of 2011 were funded from cash flow provided by operations.  The remaining cash distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, were funded from proceeds from the Initial Offering.    Future distributions declared and paid may exceed cash flow provided by operating activities until such time that we invest in additional real estate or real estate-related assets at favorable yields and our investments reach stabilization.

Distributions declared per share assumes the share was issued and outstanding each day during the period.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, distributions have been declared at a daily distribution rate of $0.0013699 (an effective annual rate of 5%).  Each day during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was a record date for distributions.  On September 21, 2011, our board of directors declared distributions payable to the stockholders of record each day during the months of October, November and December 2011 at a daily distribution rate of $0.0013699.

 

Operating performance cannot be accurately predicted due to numerous factors, including our ability to raise and invest capital at favorable yields, the financial performance of our investments in the current real estate environment, the types and mix of investments in our portfolio, and the accounting treatment of our investments in accordance with our accounting policies.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.  The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On a regular basis, we evaluate these estimates, including investment impairment.  These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and

 

38



Table of Contents

 

on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that we consider to be critical in that they may require complex judgment in their application or require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

 

Our consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of other subsidiaries over which we have control.  All inter-company transactions, balances, and profits have been eliminated in consolidation.  Interests in entities acquired will be evaluated based on applicable GAAP, which includes the requirement to consolidate entities deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIE”) in which we are the primary beneficiary.  If the interest in the entity is determined not to be a VIE, then the entity will be evaluated for consolidation based on legal form, economic substance, and the extent to which we have control and/or substantive participating rights under the respective ownership agreement.

 

There are judgments and estimates involved in determining if an entity in which we have made an investment is a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary.  The entity is evaluated to determine if it is a VIE by, among other things, calculating the percentage of equity being risked compared to the total equity of the entity.  Determining expected future losses involves assumptions of various possibilities of the results of future operations of the entity, assigning a probability to each possibility and using a discount rate to determine the net present value of those future losses.  A change in the judgments, assumptions and estimates outlined above could result in consolidating an entity that should not be consolidated or accounting for an investment using the equity method that should in fact be consolidated, the effects of which could be material to our financial statements.

 

Real Estate

 

Upon the acquisition of real estate properties, we recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest as of the acquisition date, measured at their respective fair values.  The acquisition date is the date on which we obtain control of the real estate property.  The assets acquired and liabilities assumed may consist of buildings, any assumed debt, identified intangible assets and asset retirement obligations.  Identified intangible assets generally consist of the above-market and below-market leases, in-place leases, in-place tenant improvements and tenant relationships.  Goodwill is recognized as of the acquisition date and measured as the aggregate fair value of the consideration transferred and any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired.  Likewise, a bargain purchase gain is recognized in current earnings when the aggregate fair value of the consideration transferred and any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired.  Acquisition-related costs are expensed in the period incurred.  Initial valuations are subject to change until our information is finalized, which is no later than twelve months from the acquisition date.

 

We determine the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases for acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of current market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to (a) the remaining non-cancelable lease term for above-market leases, or (b) the remaining non-cancelable lease term plus any below-market fixed rate renewal option for below-market leases.  We record the fair value of above-market and below-market leases as intangible assets or intangible liabilities, respectively, and amortize them as an adjustment to rental income over the above determined lease term.

 

The total value of identified real estate intangible assets acquired is further allocated to in-place lease values and tenant relationships based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and our overall relationship with that respective tenant.  The aggregate value of in-place leases acquired and tenant relationships is determined by applying a fair value model.  The estimates of fair value of in-place leases include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods for the respective spaces, considering current market conditions.  In estimating fair value of in-place leases, we consider items such as real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses, as well as lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up period and carrying costs that would have otherwise been incurred had the leases not been in place, including tenant improvements and commissions.  The estimates of the fair value of tenant relationships also include costs to execute similar leases, including leasing commissions, legal costs and tenant improvements, as well as an estimate of the likelihood of renewal as determined by management on a tenant-by-tenant basis.

 

We amortize the value of in-place leases to expense over the term of the respective leases.  The value of tenant relationship intangibles is amortized to expense over the initial term and any anticipated renewal periods, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building.  Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and tenant relationship intangibles is charged to expense.

Investment Impairments

 

For all of our real estate and real estate related investments, we monitor events and changes in circumstances indicating that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets may not be recoverable.  Examples of the types of events and circumstances that would cause management to assess our assets for potential impairment include, but are not limited to:  a significant decrease in the market price of an asset; a significant adverse change in the manner in which the asset is being used; an accumulation of costs in excess of the acquisition basis plus construction of the property; major vacancies and the resulting loss of revenues; natural disasters; a change in the projected holding period; legitimate purchase offers and changes in the global and local markets or economic conditions.  Our assets may at times be concentrated in limited geographic locations and, to the extent that our portfolio is concentrated in limited geographic locations, downturns specifically related to such regions may result in tenants defaulting on their lease obligations at a portion of our properties within a short time period, which may result in asset impairments.  When such events or changes in circumstances are present, we assess potential impairment by comparing estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated over the life of the asset and from its eventual disposition to the carrying amount of the asset.  In the event that the carrying amount exceeds the estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to adjust the carrying amount of the asset to estimated fair value.  We consider projected future undiscounted cash flows, trends, strategic decisions regarding future development plans, and other factors in our assessment of whether impairment conditions exist.  While we believe our estimates of future cash flows are reasonable, different assumptions regarding factors such as market rents, economic conditions, and occupancy rates could significantly affect these estimates.

 

In addition, we evaluate our investments in real estate loans receivable each reporting date.  If it is probable we will not collect all principal and interest in accordance with the terms of the loan, we will record an impairment charge based on these evaluations.  While we believe it is currently probable we will collect all scheduled principal and interest with respect to our real estate loans receivable, current market conditions with respect to credit availability and with respect to real estate market fundamentals create a significant amount of uncertainty.  Given this uncertainty, any future adverse development in market conditions may cause us to re-evaluate our conclusions and could result in material impairment charges with respect to our real estate loans receivable.

 

In evaluating our investments for impairment, management may use appraisals and make estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the projected date of disposition of the properties, the estimated future cash flows of the properties during our ownership, and the projected sales price of each of the properties.  A future change in these estimates and assumptions could result in understating or overstating the carrying value of our investments, which could be material to our financial statements.

 

We believe the carrying value of our operating real estate and loan investments is currently recoverable.  Accordingly, there were no impairment charges for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2011 or 2010.  However, if market conditions worsen beyond our current expectations, or if changes in our strategy significantly affect any key assumptions used in our fair value calculations, we may need to take charges in future periods for impairments related to our existing investments.  Any such non-cash charges would have an adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 

Item 3.                    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

 

We maintain approximately $0.3 million in Euro-denominated accounts at European financial institutions.  Accordingly, we are not materially exposed to any significant foreign currency fluctuations related to these accounts.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

We may be exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of long-term debt used to acquire properties and make loans and other permitted investments.  Our management’s objectives, with regard to interest rate risks, are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs.  To achieve these objectives, we will borrow primarily at fixed rates or variable rates with the lowest margins available and in some cases, with the ability to convert variable rates to fixed rates.  With regard to variable rate financing, we will assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities.  We may enter into derivative financial instruments such as options, forwards, interest rate swaps, caps, or floors to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument or to effectively lock the interest rate portion of our variable rate debt.  Of our $205.1 million in notes payable at September 30, 2011, $98 million represented debt subject to variable interest rates, of which $40.3 million is subject to minimum interest rates.  If our variable interest rates increased 100 basis points, we estimate that total annual interest cost, including interest expensed and interest capitalized, would increase by $0.6 million.

Table of Contents

 

Interest rate caps classified as assets were reported at their combined fair value of less than $0.1 million within prepaid expenses and other assets at September 30, 2011.  A 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would result in a less than $0.1 million net decrease in the fair value of our interest rate caps.  A 100 basis point increase in interest rates would result in a $0.3 million net increase in the fair value of our interest rate caps.

 

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of September 30, 2011, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of September 30, 2011, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in this report is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

We believe, however, that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, within a company have been detected.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities

 

On January 4, 2008, our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-140887), covering the Initial Offering of up to 125,000,000 shares of common stock, was declared effective under the Securities Act. The Initial Offering commenced on January 21, 2008 and terminated according to its own terms on July 3, 2011.  We offered a maximum of 100,000,000 shares in our primary offering component of the Initial Offering for an aggregate offering price of up to $1 billion, or $10.00 per share with discounts available to certain categories of purchasers.  The 25,000,000 shares offered under the DRP component of the Initial Offering were offered at an aggregate offering price of $237.5 million, or $9.50 per share.  Behringer Securities LP, an affiliate of our Advisor, was the dealer manager of the Initial Offering.

 

On July 5, 2011, our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-169345), covering the Follow-On Offering of up to 75,000,000 shares of common stock, was declared effective under the Securities Act.  We are offering a maximum of 50,000,000 shares in the primary offering component of the Follow-On Offering for an aggregate offering price of up to $500 million, or $10.00 per share with discounts available to certain categories of purchasers.  The 25,000,000 shares being offered under the DRP component of the Follow-On Offering are offered at an aggregate offering price of $237.5 million, or $9.50 per share.  Behringer Securities LP, an affiliate of our Advisor, is the dealer manager of the Follow-On Offering.

 

As of September 30, 2011, we had sold an aggregate 23,337,319 shares from the primary offering components of the Offerings on a best efforts basis for gross offering proceeds of approximately of $233 million.  In addition, as of September 30, 2011, we had sold an aggregate of 1,677,217 shares from the DRP for gross offering proceeds of $15.9 million.

 

From the commencement of the Initial Offering through September 30, 2011, we incurred the following expenses in connection with the issuance and distribution of the registered securities pursuant to the primary offering components of the Offerings ($ in thousands):

Share Redemption Program

 

Our board of directors has adopted a share redemption program that permits stockholders to sell their shares back to us after they have held them for at least one year, subject to the significant conditions and limitations of the program.  Our board of directors can amend the provisions of our share redemption program without the approval of our stockholders.  The terms on which we redeem shares may differ between redemptions upon a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” (as defined in the share redemption program) or confinement to a long-term care facility (collectively, “Exceptional Redemptions”) and all other redemptions (“Ordinary Redemptions”).  The purchase price for shares redeemed under the redemption program is set forth below.

 

In the case of Ordinary Redemptions, the purchase price per share will equal 90% of (i) the most recently disclosed estimated value per share as determined in accordance with our valuation policy, less (ii) the aggregate distributions per share of any net sale proceeds from the sale of one or more of our assets, or other special distributions so designated by our board of directors, distributed to stockholders after the valuation was determined (the “Valuation Adjustment”); provided, however, that the purchase price per share shall not exceed: (1) prior to the first valuation conducted by the board of directors, or a committee thereof (the “Initial Board Valuation”), under the valuation policy, 90% of (a) average price per share the original purchaser or purchasers of shares paid to us for all of his or her shares (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to our common stock) (the “Original Share Price”) less (b) the aggregate distributions per share of any net sale proceeds from the sale of one or more of our assets, or other special distributions so designated by the board of directors, distributed to stockholders prior to the redemption date (the “Special Distributions”); or (2) on or after the Initial Board Valuation, the Original Share Price less any Special Distributions.

 

In the case of Exceptional Redemptions, the purchase price per share will be equal to: (1) prior to the Initial Board Valuation, the Original Share Price less any Special Distributions; or (2) on or after the Initial Board Valuation, the most recently disclosed valuation less any Valuation Adjustment, provided, however, that the purchase price per share may not exceed the Original Share Price less any Special Distributions.

 

Notwithstanding the redemption prices set forth above, our board of directors may determine, whether pursuant to formulas or processes approved or set by our board of directors, the redemption price of the shares, which may differ between Ordinary Redemptions and Exceptional Redemptions; provided, however, that we must provide at least 30 days’ notice to stockholders before applying this new price determined by our board of directors.

 

Any shares approved for redemption will be redeemed on a periodic basis as determined from time to time by our board of directors, and no less frequently than annually. We will not redeem, during any twelve-month period, more than 5% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the twelve-month period immediately prior to the date of redemption. Generally, the cash available for redemption on any particular date will be limited to the proceeds from our DRP during the period consisting of the preceding four fiscal quarters for which financial statements are available, less any cash already used for redemptions during the same period, plus, if we had positive operating cash flow during such preceding four fiscal quarters, 1% of all operating cash flow during such preceding four fiscal quarters.  The redemption limitations apply to all redemptions, whether Ordinary or Exceptional Redemptions.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2011 our board of directors redeemed all 36 redemption requests received that complied with the applicable requirements and guidelines of the share redemption program for an aggregate of 460,973 shares redeemed since inception.  During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, we redeemed shares as follows:
