INLAND REAL ESTATE CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2013 (unaudited)

 The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the audited financial statements of Inland Real Estate Corporation (the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2012, which are included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report, as certain footnote disclosures contained in such audited financial statements have been omitted from this Report on Form 10-Q.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included in this Quarterly Report.
 
1)           Organization and Basis of Accounting

Inland Real Estate Corporation (the “Company”), a Maryland corporation, was formed on May 12, 1994.  The Company is a publicly held real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns, operates and develops (directly or through its unconsolidated entities) open-air neighborhood, community and power shopping centers and single tenant retail properties located primarily in Midwest markets.  Through wholly-owned subsidiaries, Inland Commercial Property Management, Inc. ("ICPM") and Inland TRS Property Management, Inc., the Company manages all properties it owns interests in and properties for certain third parties and related parties.
 
All amounts in these footnotes to the consolidated financial statements are stated in thousands with the exception of per share amounts, square foot amounts, and number of properties.
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidated joint ventures.  The Company consolidates the operations of a joint venture if it determines that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the joint venture, which management has determined to be a VIE in accordance with ASC 810. The primary beneficiary is the party that has a controlling financial interest in the VIE, which is defined by the entity having both of the following characteristics: 1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance, and 2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE.  There are significant judgments and estimates involved in determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE or the determination of who has control and influence of the entity. When the Company consolidates a VIE, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the VIE are included in our consolidated financial statements and all inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated.
 
The consolidated results of the Company include the accounts of Inland Ryan LLC and IRC-IREX Venture II, LLC, which are both VIE's for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.  The Company has determined that the interests in these entities are noncontrolling interests to be included in permanent equity, separate from the Company’s shareholders’ equity, in the consolidated balance sheets and statements of equity. Net income or loss related to these noncontrolling interests is included in net income or loss in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company repurchased the remaining outstanding membership units of Inland Ryan LLC for $8,641, resulting in the Company owning 100% of Inland Ryan LLC.
 
Recent Accounting Principles
 
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02 to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendment requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For amounts not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. The amendment is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. In adopting the amendment, the Company added a new footnote containing the required disclosure.

(2)           Investment Securities

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, investment in securities includes $3,587 and $7,711, respectively, of perpetual preferred securities and common securities classified as available-for-sale securities, which are recorded at fair value.  In addition, $1,000 in each period of preferred securities are recorded at cost.  The Company determined that these securities should be held at cost because the fair value is not readily determinable and there is no active market for these securities.
 
Unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of comprehensive income until realized.  The Company has recorded a net unrealized loss of $37 on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2013, and a net unrealized gain of $762 as of December 31, 2012, respectively.  Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined on a specific identification basis.  Sales of investment securities available-for-sale during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 resulted in gains on sale of $271 and $1,090, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, these gains were $305 and $1,396, respectively. These gains are included in other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.  Dividend income is recognized when received.
 
The Company evaluates its investments for impairment quarterly.  The Company’s policy for assessing near term recoverability of its available for sale securities is to record a charge against net earnings when the Company determines that a decline in the fair value of a security drops below the cost basis and it believes it to be other than temporary.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $98, with respect to its investment in perpetual preferred and common securities in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Due to various factors, including the extent and duration during which the market price had been below cost, the Company concluded the decline in value was other than temporary. No such losses were required or recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
 
Gross unrealized losses on investment securities and the fair value of the related securities, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at September 30, 2013 were as follows:

The Company is the lender to the joint venture.

This loan matures in December 2013.  The Company has guaranteed approximately $500 of this outstanding loan. The PTI Westfield joint venture will attempt to extend or restructure this joint venture debt, as it has done in the past, although there is no assurance that the Company, or its joint venture partner, will be able to restructure this debt on terms and conditions the Company finds acceptable, if at all.
(c)
The total debt above reflects the total principal amount outstanding.  The unconsolidated joint ventures' balance sheets at September 30, 2013 reflect the value of the debt including the remaining unamortized mortgages premium/discount of $4,152.
 
The Company has guaranteed approximately $500 of unconsolidated joint venture debt as of September 30, 2013. The guarantee is in effect for the entire term of the loan as set forth in the loan documents.  The Company is required to pay on a guarantee upon the default of any of the provisions in the loan documents, unless the default is otherwise waived.  The Company is required to estimate the fair value of the guarantee and, if material, record a corresponding liability.  The Company has determined that the fair value of the guarantee is immaterial as of September 30, 2013 and accordingly has not recorded a liability related to the guarantees on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The Company earns fees for providing asset management, property management, leasing and acquisition services to its joint ventures.  The Company recognizes fee income equal to the Company’s joint venture partner’s share of the expense or commission, which is reflected as fee income from unconsolidated joint ventures in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.  Fee income earned for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 are reflected in the table below.

The fee income from the joint venture with PGGM has increased due to the increase in assets under management. The fee income from the joint venture with IPCC increased due primarily to acquisition fees earned in conjunction with the sales of ownership interests in the properties available for sale during each period. The fee income from the joint venture with NYSTRS decreased due to the consolidation during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of the properties formerly held by the joint venture.

The operations of properties contributed to the joint ventures by the Company are not recorded as discontinued operations because of the Company’s continuing involvement with these investment properties.  Differences between the Company’s investment in the joint ventures and the amount of the underlying equity in net assets of the joint ventures are due to basis differences resulting from the Company’s equity investment recorded at its historical basis versus the fair value of certain of the Company’s contributions to the joint venture.  Such differences are amortized over depreciable lives of the joint venture property assets.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded $517 and $2,174, respectively, of amortization of this basis difference, as compared to $888 and $2,590 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, which is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

The Company’s proportionate share of the earnings or losses related to its unconsolidated joint ventures is reflected as equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. 
 
Joint Venture with PGGM

The Company formed a joint venture with PGGM, a leading Dutch pension fund administrator and asset manager in 2010 and completed an amendment to the partnership agreement in 2012 to increase the maximum equity contributions of each partner.  In conjunction with the formation, the joint venture established two separate REIT entities to hold title to the properties included in the joint venture.  The joint venture may acquire up to a total of $900,000 of grocery-anchored and community retail centers located in Midwestern U.S. markets. The Company's maximum total contribution is approximately $280,000 and PGGM's maximum total equity contribution is approximately $230,000.

As of September 30, 2013, the joint venture has acquired a total of approximately $570,000 of retail assets, including those properties contributed by the Company. As of September 30, 2013, PGGM's remaining maximum potential equity contribution was approximately $75,000 and the Company's was approximately $91,000.
 
As properties were contributed to the joint venture, the net assets were removed from the Company's consolidated financial statements. The table below reflects those properties that were deconsolidated during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The Company did not contribute additional assets to the joint venture during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and is not required to do so in the future.

PGGM owns a forty-five percent equity ownership interest and the Company owns a fifty-five percent interest in the venture.  The Company is the managing partner of the venture and is responsible for the day-to-day activities of the venture.  The Company determined that this joint venture was not a VIE.  Both partners have the ability to participate in major decisions, as detailed in the joint venture agreement, and therefore, neither partner is deemed to have control of the joint venture.  Therefore, this joint venture is accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the joint venture with PGGM entered into a limited liability company agreement with Pine Tree and IBT Group, LLC ("IBT"). This agreement forms a joint venture between the three parties to acquire, develop, operate and manage the property known as Evergreen Park Promenade, located in Evergreen Park, Illinois. The venture acquired the vacant land parcel for $5,500 and intends to construct approximately 92,500 square feet of gross leasable area, of which approximately 95% has been pre-leased to national retailers. The joint venture determined that this newly created venture is not a VIE. All parties have the ability to participate in major decisions, as detailed in the agreement, and therefore, no partner is deemed to have control of the venture. Therefore, the joint venture with PGGM will account for this new venture using the equity method of accounting.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded approximately $1,384 of gain from the portion of the investment properties deemed sold to third-party venture partners.
 
Joint Venture with NYSTRS

On June 3, 2013, the Company completed the acquisition of the 50 percent ownership interest of NYSTRS in the joint venture entity. The Company acquired the 50% interest of NYSTRS in the joint venture for approximately $121,100 in cash. The Company funded the acquisition utilizing $91,600 received from selling 9,000 shares of its common stock during the period, cash on hand and funds received from a draw on its line of credit facility. The Company now owns all of the outstanding interests in the joint venture. The Company's decision to acquire the joint venture interest was based on advancing its strategic goals to increase the size and quality of its consolidated portfolio, simplify the ownership structure and strengthen the

Company's balance sheet. See additional discussion of this transaction under the heading "Change in Control Transactions" in this footnote 3.

Joint Venture with IPCC

In January 2013, Inland Exchange Venture Corporation (“IEVC”), a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) of the Company, extended its joint venture with IPCC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Inland Group, Inc. (“TIGI”), through December 31, 2014 to continue the joint venture relationship that began in 2006 and to change the fee structure. The joint venture provides replacement properties for investors wishing to complete a tax-deferred exchange through private placement offerings, using properties made available to the joint venture by IEVC.  These offerings are structured to sell TIC interests or DST interests, together the “ownership interests,” in the identified property.  IEVC performs the joint venture’s acquisition function and ICPM performs the asset management, property management and leasing functions. Both entities earn fees for providing these services to the joint venture. 

The Company agreed to lower its initial acquisition fee, which is a one-time transaction fee and slightly decrease the fee charged for property management. In exchange for these reduced fees, the Company is now paid an asset management fee on each property acquired that will be earned throughout the management period. The Company believes this new fee structure will be a benefit because the Company is increasing its long-term recurring fee income stream in exchange for reduced one-time fees. The Company will continue to earn asset management, property management and leasing fees on all properties acquired for this venture, including after all ownership interests have been sold to the investors.

The joint venture was determined to be a VIE under ASC Topic 810 and is consolidated by the Company.  Prior to the sale of any ownership interests, the joint venture owns 100% of the ownership interests in the property and controls the major decisions that affect the underlying property; and therefore upon initial acquisition, the joint venture consolidates the property.  At the time of first sale of an ownership interest, the joint venture no longer controls the underlying property as the activities and decisions that most significantly impact the property’s economic performance are now subject to joint control among the co-owners or lender; and therefore, at such time, the property is deconsolidated and accounted for under the equity method (unconsolidated).  Once the operations are deconsolidated, the income is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures until all ownership interests have been sold.  The table below reflects those properties that were deconsolidated during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, and therefore no longer represent the consolidated assets and liabilities of the VIE.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the joint venture with IPCC acquired seventeen and twelve investment properties, respectively.  In conjunction with the sales of ownership interests, the Company recorded gains of approximately $475 and $1,209 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $112 and $176 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. These gains are included in gain on sale of joint venture interests on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Change in Control Transactions

Prior to the change in control transactions, the Company accounted for its investment in each of the properties discussed below as equity method investees. The change in control transactions were accounted for as business combinations, which required the Company to record the assets and liabilities of each property at its fair value, which was derived using Level 3 inputs. Upon consolidation, the Company valued these properties utilizing information obtained from third party sources and internal valuation calculations, comprised of a discounted cash flow model, including discount rates and capitalization rates applied to the expected future cash flows of the property. The Company estimated the fair value of the remaining debt by discounting the future cash flows of the instrument at rates currently offered for similar debt instruments (Level 2). The gains resulting from the fair value adjustments of the respective assets acquired and liabilities assumed are reflected as gain from change in control of investment properties on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

On June 3, 2013, the Company acquired NYSTRS interest in the IN Retail Fund, LLC joint venture and as a result owns 100 percent of the ownership interest in the 13 properties previously part of the joint venture. The assets, liabilities and results of operations of the related properties are now included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The fair value of the portfolio was determined to be approximately $396,000 with the face value of total outstanding mortgage debt of approximately $152,204, which are both net of $3,742 of related premiums and discounts, plus other related assets and liabilities. The consolidation of these properties resulted in a gain of approximately $95,378.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company, on behalf of the NARE/Inland North Aurora LLC joint ventures, negotiated with the lender of the North Aurora Town Center development properties to repay the mortgage payable, which matured in July 2011, at a discount. The Company contributed $10,000 to repay the entire $30,537 outstanding mortgage, resulting in a gain on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $20,537. In conjunction with this debt repayment, the joint ventures previously established to develop these properties were dissolved and the development properties and remaining indebtedness were consolidated by the Company. The consolidation of these properties resulted in a loss of approximately $19,494. The Company recorded a net gain on the change in control of $1,043 related to this transaction.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:

Development Joint Ventures

When circumstances indicate there may have been a loss in value of an equity method investment, the Company evaluates the investment for impairment by estimating its ability to recover its investments from future expected cash flows. If the Company determines the loss in value is other than temporary, the Company will recognize an impairment charge to reflect the investment at its fair value, which was derived using Level 3 inputs.

The impairment of assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 at the joint venture level and the Company's pro-rata share are included in the below table. The Company's pro-rata share of the loss is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. No impairment losses were required or recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

The Company has not included pro forma financial information related to the above properties acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Properties acquired through our joint venture with IPCC are only consolidated for a short period of time until the first sale to TIC or DST investors at which point, they become unconsolidated. The acquisitions of Eola Commons and Winfield Point Center were the result of the settlement of outstanding notes receivable. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company sold Eola Commons and it is the Company's intention to sell Winfield Point Center in the near term. The Company acquired Warsaw Commons with the intention of holding this property long-term, however, management has deemed pro forma information immaterial to the overall consolidated financial statements.

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

Assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their classifications within the fair value hierarchy levels.

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

Level 1
The fair value of available-for-sale securities was estimated based on quoted market prices. Unrealized gains or losses on investment are reflected in unrealized gains in other comprehensive income on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

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

Level 3
The fair value of debt is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.  The Company estimates the fair value of its total debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by the Company’s lenders. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company used rates of 3.6% and 4.2%, respectively, for fixed rate debt and 2.2% and 2.6%, respectively, for variable rate debt.  The Company has not elected the fair value option with respect to its debt.  The Company’s financial instruments, principally escrow deposits, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and working capital items, are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate their fair value at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

(6)    Mortgages and Notes Receivable
 
In April 2012, the Company entered into a loan agreement with a developer of the Warsaw Commons Shopping Center in Warsaw, Indiana.  The loan provided construction financing to the developer to complete the development of 87,826 square feet of rentable space.  The loan accrued interest at a rate of 7.0% per annum and was added to the balance of the loan on a monthly basis until the interest reserve was met, at which point the borrower began making cash payments. The maximum loan amount under the agreement was $11,545.  The total outstanding balance, plus accrued interest was due upon the May 31, 2013 maturity date.  In conjunction with this loan agreement, the Company earned a fee of $115, equal to 1.0% of the maximum allowed under the loan. Total interest income earned during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $234.  Upon completion of the development, the Company had the obligation to acquire the property at a pre-determined price, expected to be approximately $13,000.  Due to the Company’s purchase obligation, the loan fee and interest income earned have not been reflected as income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

On April 24, 2013, the Company acquired title to the Warsaw Commons Shopping Center for a price of $11,393, subject to future earnout payments. Future earnout payments are estimated to be approximately $1,800, of which approximately $1,200 has already been paid. The balance of the outstanding note was $10,957, and for financial statement purposes was $10,272, at the time of closing. The settlement of this outstanding note resulted in a gain of $685 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
 
In May 2012, the Company, through its TRS, paid approximately $3,969 to acquire the notes on two properties which were in default.  The loans were acquired at a discount to the outstanding balance.  The TRS acquired for $1,800, the $3,720 note encumbering the Winfield Pointe Shopping Center, located in Winfield, Illinois and acquired for $2,169, the $4,500 note encumbering the Eola Commons Shopping Center located in Aurora, Illinois.  The TRS obtained title to each of these properties through foreclosure proceedings during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Upon the April 17, 2013 ownership transfer, the Company valued these properties utilizing information obtained from third party sources and internal valuation calculations, comprised of a discounted cash flow model, using discount rates and capitalization rates applied to the expected future cash flows of the property. In conjunction with the acquisitions, the notes

were extinguished. The fair value of Eola Commons was determined to be $3,994 and the fair value of Winfield Pointe Center was $2,583. The title transfer resulted in a gain of $2,410.

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the TRS sold the Eola Commons Shopping Center, and intends to sell Winfield Pointe Shopping Center.

(7)    Transactions with Related Parties
 
The Company pays affiliates of TIGI for real estate-related brokerage services, investment advisory services and various administrative services, including, but not limited to, payroll preparation and management, data processing, insurance consultation and placement, property tax reduction services and mail processing.  These TIGI affiliates provide these services at cost, with the exception of the investment advisor fees and the broker commissions.  The investment advisor fees are charged as a percentage of total assets under management and the broker commissions are charged as a percentage of the gross transaction amount.  TIGI, through its affiliates, beneficially owns approximately 12.5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.  Daniel L. Goodwin, one of our directors, owns a controlling amount of the stock of TIGI.
 
Amounts paid to TIGI or its affiliates for services and office space provided to the Company are set forth below.

If the Company determines that an investment property meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, it suspends depreciation on the assets held for sale, including depreciation for tenant improvements and additions, as well as on the amortization of acquired in-place leases and customer relationship values.  The assets and liabilities associated with those assets would be classified separately on the consolidated balance sheets for the most recent reporting period.  As of September 30, 2013, there were no properties classified as held for sale.
 
On the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has recorded $205 and $231, respectively, of assets related to discontinued operations and $50 and $51, respectively of liabilities related to discontinued operations.  These amounts are reflected as a component of other assets and other liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.  Additionally, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company has recorded income from discontinued operations of $1,219 and $9,691, respectively. One property sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was sold at a price below its current carrying value and as a result, a provision for asset impairment totaling $369 was recorded. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 includes gains on sale of $524 and $3,760, respectively. Additionally, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company has recorded income from discontinued operations of $904 and $1,738, respectively. Two properties sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were sold at prices below their current carrying value and as a result, a provision for asset impairment totaling $479 was recorded. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 includes a gain on sale of $349.

(9)               Operating Leases
 
Certain tenant leases contain provisions providing for “stepped” rent increases.  U.S. GAAP requires the Company to record rental income for the period of occupancy using the effective monthly rent, which is the average monthly rent for the entire period of occupancy during the term of the lease.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include increases of $779 and $476 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively and increases of $106 and $616 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively of rental income for the period of occupancy for which stepped rent increases apply and $21,019 and $20,543 in related accounts receivable as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.  The Company anticipates collecting these amounts over the terms of the leases as scheduled rent payments are made.

(10)    Income Taxes
 
The Company is qualified and has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“the Code”), for federal income tax purposes commencing with the tax year ended December 31, 1995.  Since the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company generally is not subject to federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to stockholders.  A REIT is subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to stockholders, subject to certain adjustments.  If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, without the benefit of certain relief provisions, the Company will be subject to federal and state income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates.  Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income, property or net worth and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
 
The Company engages in certain activities through Inland Venture Corporation (“IVC”), IEVC and Inland TRS Property Management, Inc., wholly-owned TRS entities.  These entities engage in activities that would otherwise produce income that would not be REIT qualifying income, including, but not limited to, managing properties owned through certain of the Company's joint ventures and the sale of ownership interests through the Company's IPCC joint venture. The TRS entities are subject to federal and state income and franchise taxes from these activities.
 
The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2013.  The Company expects no significant increases or decreases in uncertain tax positions due to changes in tax positions within one year of September 30, 2013. The Company has no material interest or penalties relating to income taxes recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 or in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. As of September 30, 2013, returns for the calendar years 2009 through 2012 remain subject to examination by U.S. and various state and local tax jurisdictions.

(a)
Approximately $142,616 of the Company’s mortgages payable matures in the next twelve months.  Included in the debt maturing in 2013 is approximately $90,247 secured by the Company's Algonquin Commons property. Although these loans do not mature until November 2014, the Company has included them in 2013 because the lender has accelerated the due date of the loans in connection with their decision to initiate foreclosure proceedings. The Company intends to repay the other remaining maturing debt upon maturity using available cash and/or borrowings under its unsecured line of credit facility.
(b)
Included in the debt maturing in 2014 are the Company’s convertible notes issued during 2010, which mature in 2029.  They are included in 2014 because that is the earliest date these notes can be redeemed or the note holders can require the Company to repurchase their notes.  The total for convertible notes above reflects the total principal amount outstanding, in the amount of $29,215.  The consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2013 reflect the value of the notes including the remaining unamortized discount of $541.
(c)
The total debt above reflects the total principal amount outstanding.  The consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2013 reflect the value of the debt including the remaining unamortized mortgages premium/discount of $3,306.
(d)
Included in the debt maturing during 2017 is the Company’s unsecured line of credit facility, totaling $105,000.  The Company pays interest only during the term of this facility at a variable rate equal to a spread over LIBOR, in effect at the time of the borrowing, which fluctuates with the Company’s leverage ratio.  As of September 30, 2013, the weighted average interest rate on outstanding draws on the line of credit facility was 1.69%.  This credit facility requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of September 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.
(e)
Included in the thereafter column is the Company’s $180,000 unsecured term loan which matures in August 2018.  The Company pays interest only during the term of this loan at a variable rate equal to a spread over LIBOR, in effect at the time of the borrowing, which fluctuates with the Company’s leverage ratio.  As of September 30, 2013, the weighted average interest rate on the term loan was 1.64%.  This term loan requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of September 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.
(f)
Included in the thereafter column is the Company’s $50,000 unsecured term loan which matures in November 2018.  The Company pays interest only during the term of this loan at a variable rate, with an interest rate floor of 3.50%.  As of September 30, 2013, the interest rate on this term loan was 3.50%.  This term loan requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of September 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.
 
Mortgages Payable
 
The Company’s mortgages payable are secured by certain of the Company’s investment properties.  The face value of mortgage loans outstanding as of September 30, 2013 was $511,567 and they bore interest at a weighted average interest rate of 5.03% per annum.  The consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2013 reflect the fair value of the mortgage debt, including the remaining unamortized mortgages premium/discount of $3,306. Of this amount, $470,367 bore interest at fixed rates ranging from 4.00% to 6.50% per annum and a weighted average fixed rate of 5.27% per annum as of September 30, 2013.  The remaining $41,200 of mortgage debt bears interest at variable rates with a weighted average interest rate of 2.28% per annum as of September 30, 2013.  As of September 30, 2013, scheduled maturities for the Company’s outstanding mortgage indebtedness had various due dates through February 2023.  The majority of the Company’s mortgage loans require monthly payments of interest only, although some loans require principal and interest payments, as well as reserves for taxes, insurance and certain other costs.
 
In June 2012, the Company ceased paying the monthly debt service on the mortgage loans encumbering Algonquin Commons. The Company had hoped to reach an agreement with the special servicer that would revise the loan structure to make continued ownership of the property economically feasible. In January 2013, the Company received notice that a complaint had been filed by the lender to Algonquin Commons, alleging events of default under the loan documents and seeking to foreclose on the property. In connection with the complaint, the plaintiff filed a motion for appointment of a receiver and the court granted the motion and issued an order effective March 1, 2013, appointing a receiver for the property. As a result, the receiver and its

affiliated management company are now managing and operating Algonquin Commons and are now collecting all rents for the property. The Company cannot currently estimate the impact the dispute will have on its consolidated financial statements and may not be able to do so until a final outcome has been reached. The Company believes the payment guaranty has, however, ceased and is of no further force and effect as a result of the conditions for termination having been met when the performance metrics set forth in the payment guaranty were met. As the Company has previously disclosed, if it is required to pay the full $18,600 outstanding under the guarantee, such payment could have a material adverse effect on its consolidated statements of cash flows for the period and the year in which it would be made and it could have a material adverse effect on its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the period and the year in which the disposal of the property and related debt occur. The Company believes that this payment would not have a material effect on its consolidated balance sheets. If the Company is required to pay under the payment guarantee, it would expect to fund this payment using available cash and/or a draw on its unsecured line of credit facility.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
 
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
 
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions.  The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risk, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and, to a limited extent, the use of derivative instruments.
 
Specifically, the Company has entered into derivative instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates.  The Company’s derivative instruments, described below, are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash payments principally related to certain of the Company’s borrowings.
 
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
 
The Company’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage exposure to interest rate movements and add stability to interest expense.  To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
 
The Company currently has one interest rate swap outstanding that is used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with its variable-rate debt.  The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in comprehensive income (expense) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.  The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives, if any, is recognized directly in earnings.  The Company has entered into one interest rate swap contract as a requirement under a secured mortgage and the hedging relationship is considered to be highly effective as of September 30, 2013.

Amounts reported in comprehensive income (expense) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt.  The Company estimates that an additional $2,069 will be reclassified from comprehensive income (expense) as an increase to interest expense over the next twelve months.

In December 2010, the Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement with an original notional value of $60,000 and a maturity date of December 21, 2020 associated with the debt secured by first mortgages on a pool of eight investment properties. This interest rate swap fixed the floating LIBOR based debt under a variable rate loan to a fixed rate debt at an interest rate of 3.627% per annum plus the applicable margin to manage the risk exposure to interest rate fluctuations, or an effective fixed rate of 6.027% per annum. Also included in the December 31, 2012 balance is a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement the Company's joint venture with IPCC entered into with an original notional value of $9,545, associated with the debt secured by a first mortgage on the Dick's Sporting Goods property. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, this property was deconsolidated.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that are designated as a cash flow hedge of interest rate risk:

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

Derivative financial investments expose the Company to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties under the terms of the interest rate hedge agreements.  The Company believes it minimizes the credit risk by transacting with major creditworthy financial institutions.
 
As of September 30, 2013, the fair value of derivatives in a liability position related to this agreement was $6,080. If the Company breached any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contract, it would be required to settle its obligation under the agreement at its termination value of $6,619.
 
Unsecured Credit Facilities
 
In 2012, the Company entered into amendments to its existing unsecured line of credit facility and term loan, together the “Credit Agreements.”  Under the term loan agreement, the Company borrowed, on an unsecured basis, $175,000.  The aggregate commitment of the Company’s line of credit facility is $275,000, which includes a $100,000 accordion feature.  The access to the accordion feature is at the discretion of the current lending group.  If approved, the terms for the funds borrowed under the accordion feature would be market terms at the time of the borrowing and not the terms of the existing line of credit facility.  The lending group is not obligated to approve access to the additional funds.
 
The line of credit facility was scheduled to mature on August 20, 2016 and the term loan was scheduled to mature on August 20, 2017. Borrowings under the Credit Agreements bear interest at a base rate applicable to any particular borrowing (e.g., LIBOR) plus a graduated spread that varies with the Company’s leverage ratio.
 
On August 23, 2013, the Company entered into amendments to the Credit Agreements to, among other things, (1) extend the maturity date of the line of credit facility to August 22, 2017 and of the term loan to August 22, 2018; (2) increase the amount borrowed under the term loan to $180,000 and increase the aggregate commitment of the Company's line of credit facility to $280,000, which includes the $100,000 accordion feature; and (3) reduce the graduated spread that varies with the Company's leverage ratio. In conjunction with these amendments, the Company paid approximately $1,260 in fees and costs.

September 30, 2013 (unaudited)

The Company pays interest only, on a monthly basis during the term of the Credit Agreements, with all outstanding principal and unpaid interest due upon termination of the Credit Agreements.  The Company is also required to pay, on a quarterly basis, an amount less than 1% per annum on the average daily funds remaining under this line.  As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the outstanding balance on the line of credit facility was $105,000 and $80,000, respectively. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had up to $75,000 available under its line of credit facility, not including the accordion feature.  Availability under the line of credit facility may be limited due to covenant compliance requirements in the Credit Agreements.
 
On November 15, 2011, the Company entered into an unsecured loan agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as lender pursuant to which the company received $50,000 of loan proceeds.  The loan matures on November 15, 2018.  The Company pays interest only, on a monthly basis, with all outstanding principal and unpaid interest due upon the maturity date.  The loan accrues interest at an effective rate calculated in accordance with the loan documents, provided, however, that in no event will the interest rate on the outstanding principal balance be less than 3.5% per annum.  The Company may not prepay the loan in whole or in part prior to November 15, 2014.  On or after that date, the Company may prepay the loan in its entirety or in part, together with all interest accrued and may incur a prepayment penalty in conjunction with such prepayment.

Convertible Notes

In August 2010, the Company issued $29,215 in face value of 5.0% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the “Notes”), all of which remained outstanding at September 30, 2013.
 
Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually.  The Notes mature on November 15, 2029 unless repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms prior to that date.  The earliest date holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase their Notes in whole or in part is November 15, 2014.  Prior to November 21, 2014, the Company may not redeem the Notes prior to the date on which they mature except to the extent necessary to preserve its status as a REIT.  However, on or after November 21, 2014, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, subject to the redemption terms in the Note.  Following the occurrence of certain change in control transactions, the Company may be required to repurchase the Notes in whole or in part for cash at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest.
 
Holders of the Notes may convert their Notes into cash or a combination of cash and common stock, at the Company’s option, at any time on or after October 15, 2029, but prior to the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding November 15, 2029, and also following the occurrence of certain events.  Subject to certain exceptions, upon a conversion of Notes the Company will deliver cash and shares of its common stock, if any, based on a daily conversion value calculated on a proportionate basis for each trading day of the relevant 30 day trading period.  The conversion rate as of September 30, 2013, for each $1 principal amount of Notes was 102.8807 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances.  This is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $9.72 per share of common stock.
 
At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has recorded $548 and $183, respectively of accrued interest related to the convertible notes.  This amount is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
 
The Company accounts for its convertible notes by separately accounting for the debt and equity components of the notes.  The value assigned to the debt component is the estimated fair value of a similar bond without the conversion feature, which results in the debt being recorded at a discount.  The debt is subsequently accreted to its par value over the conversion period with a rate of interest being reflected in earnings that reflects the market rate at issuance.  The Company initially recorded $9,412 to additional paid in capital on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, to reflect the equity portion of the convertible notes.  The debt component is recorded at its fair value, which reflects an unamortized debt discount.  The following table sets forth the net carrying values of the debt and equity components included in the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012

The effective interest rate of these convertible notes is 7.0%, which is the rate at which a similar instrument without the conversion feature could have been obtained in August 2010.

(12)         Earnings per Share
 
Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period (the “common shares”).  Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the common shares plus shares issuable upon exercise of existing options or other contracts.  As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, options to purchase 73 and 83 shares of common stock, respectively, at exercise prices ranging from $6.85 to $19.96 per share were outstanding.  Convertible notes are included in the computation of diluted EPS using the if-converted method, to the extent the impact of conversion is dilutive.  These options and convertible notes were not included in the computation of basic or diluted EPS as the effect would be immaterial or anti-dilutive for the periods presented.
 
As of September 30, 2013, 576 shares of common stock have been issued pursuant to employment agreements, employment incentives and as director compensation. Of the total shares issued, 239 have vested and 6 have been cancelled.  The unvested shares are excluded from the computation of basic EPS but reflected in diluted EPS by application of the treasury stock method unless the effect would be immaterial or anti-dilutive.
 
The following is a reconciliation between weighted average shares used in the basic and diluted EPS calculations, excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests:

In November 2012, the Company entered into a three-year Sales Agency Agreement with BMO Capital Markets Corp., Jefferies & Company, Inc. and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc. (together the "Agents"). The Sales Agency Agreement provides that the Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price up to $150 million from time to time through the Agents. Offers and sales of shares of its common stock, if any, may be made in privately negotiated

(14)             Segment Reporting
 
Guidance regarding the disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information requires disclosure of certain operating and financial data with respect to separate business activities within an enterprise.  The Company owns and acquires well located open air retail centers.  The Company currently owns investment properties located in the States of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas and Wisconsin.  These properties are typically anchored by grocery and drug stores, complemented with additional stores providing a wide range of other goods and services.
 
The Company assesses and measures operating results on an individual property basis for each of its investment properties based on property net operating income.  Management internally evaluates the operating performance of the properties as a whole and does not differentiate properties by geography, size or type.  The Company aggregates its properties into one reportable segment since all properties are open air retail centers.  Accordingly, the Company has concluded that it has a single reportable segment.

Item 2.        Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Certain statements in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (including documents incorporated herein by reference) constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Forward-looking statements are statements that do not reflect historical facts and instead reflect our management’s intentions, beliefs, expectations, plans or predictions of the future.  Forward-looking statements can often be identified by words such as "seek," “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” “should” and “could.” Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that describe or contain information related to matters such as management’s intent, belief or expectation with respect to our financial performance, investment strategy or our portfolio, our ability to address debt maturities, our cash flows, our growth prospects, the value of our assets, our joint venture commitments and the amount and timing of anticipated future cash distributions. Forward-looking statements reflect the intent, belief or expectations of our management based on their knowledge and understanding of the business and industry and their assumptions, beliefs and expectations with respect to the market for commercial real estate, the U.S. economy and other future conditions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including but not limited to the factors listed and described under Item 1A”Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 28, 2013 as they may be revised or supplemented by us in subsequent Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings with the SEC.  Among such risks, uncertainties and other factors are market and economic challenges experienced by the U.S. economy or real estate industry as a whole, including dislocations and liquidity disruptions in the credit markets; the inability of tenants to continue paying their rent obligations due to bankruptcy, insolvency or a general downturn in their business; competition for real estate assets and tenants; impairment charges; the availability of cash flow from operating activities for distributions and capital expenditures; our ability to refinance maturing debt or to obtain new financing on attractive terms; future increases in interest rates; actions or failures by our joint venture partners, including development partners; and factors that could affect our ability to qualify as a real estate investment trust. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results.
 
In this report, all references to “we,” “our” and “us” refer collectively to Inland Real Estate Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.   All amounts in this Form 10-Q are stated in thousands with the exception of per share amounts, per square foot amounts, number of properties, and number of leases.
 
Executive Summary
 
We strive to be a leading owner and operator of high quality, necessity and value based retail centers in prime locations throughout the United States. We seek to provide predictable, sustainable cash flows and continually enhance shareholder value through the expert management and strategic improvement of our portfolio of premier retail properties.

We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"). We are a Maryland corporation formed on May 12, 1994. To date, we have focused on open-air neighborhood, community and power shopping centers and single-tenant retail properties located primarily in the Midwestern United States. Through wholly-owned subsidiaries, Inland Commercial Property Management, Inc. and Inland TRS Property Management, Inc., we manage all properties we own interests in and properties for certain third parties and related parties.  Our investment properties are typically anchored by grocery, drug or discount stores, which provide everyday goods and services to consumers, rather than stores that sell discretionary items.  We seek to acquire properties with high quality tenants and attempt to mitigate our risk of tenant defaults by maintaining a diversified tenant base.  As of September 30, 2013, no single tenant accounted for more than approximately 3.9% of annual base rent in our total portfolio, excluding properties owned through our joint venture with Inland Private Capital Corporation ("IPCC").
 
As of September 30, 2013, we owned interests in 161 investment properties, including 52 properties owned by our unconsolidated joint ventures.

2013 Goals and Objectives

Continue to enhance the value of our portfolio through additional repositioning and redevelopment initiatives.
Redeploy capital from dispositions of non-core, limited growth assets into acquisitions of high quality retail assets.

26

Table of Contents

Continue to reduce the cost and extend the term of our debt and reduce our overall leverage over time, which will improve our financial flexibility and liquidity by providing better access to multiple sources of capital.
In executing our 2013 goals, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we sold seven non-core assets for approximately $25,246, the proceeds from which were used to partially fund the acquisition of the 50% ownership interest of New York State Teacher's Retirement Systems ("NYSTRS") in our joint venture. Our decision to acquire the joint venture interest was based on advancing our strategic goals to increase the size and quality of our consolidated portfolio, simplify our ownership structure and strengthen our balance sheet. Additionally, we repaid approximately $25,420 of consolidated mortgages payable, and prior to acquiring NYSTRS' interest, the joint venture repaid approximately $20,900 of secured debt when it matured, using equity contributions from each partner, resulting in a decrease of our total outstanding debt.

As part of our overall growth strategy, management implemented external growth initiatives through unconsolidated joint ventures. Because these joint ventures are unconsolidated, our consolidated financial statements do not present a complete picture of the impact of these ventures. As a result, we have included pro rata consolidated financial statements in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to present our consolidated financial statements including our share of the joint venture balance sheets and statements of operations.

We managed approximately $2,812,027 in total assets as of September 30, 2013, including properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures and those managed on behalf of third parties, and earned $85,063 and $251,565 for three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively in total revenues. We believe providing this information allows investors to better compare our overall performance and operating metrics to those of other REITs in our peer group.
 
Strategies and Objectives
 
Current Strategies
 
Our primary business objective is to enhance the performance and value of our investment properties through management strategies that address the needs of retailers in an evolving retail marketplace.  Our success in operating our centers efficiently and effectively is, we believe, a direct result of our expertise in the acquisition, management, leasing and development/re-development of properties held either directly or through a joint venture.
 
Acquisition Strategies
 
We seek to selectively acquire well-located open air retail centers that meet our investment criteria.  We will, from time to time, acquire properties either without financing contingencies or by assuming existing debt to provide us with a competitive advantage over other potential purchasers requiring financing or financing contingencies.  Additionally, we concentrate our property acquisitions in areas where we have, or seek to have, a large market concentration.  In doing this, we believe we are able to attract new retailers to the area and possibly lease several locations to them. 
 
Joint Ventures
 
We have formed joint ventures to acquire stabilized retail properties as well as properties to be redeveloped and vacant land to be developed.  We structure these ventures to earn fees from the joint ventures for providing property management, asset management, acquisition and leasing services.  We will continue to receive management and leasing fees for those investment properties under management, however acquisition fees may fluctuate with acquisition activity through these ventures.

We believe that joint ventures support our strategic goals of expanding our footprint to improve diversification, while utilizing our partner's capital and preserving liquidity on our balance sheet. Additionally, the joint ventures provide us with ongoing fee income that enhances our results of operations from our core portfolio.

Additionally, we have formed a joint venture to acquire properties that are ultimately sold to investors through a private offering of tenant-in-common (“TIC”) interests or interests in Delaware Statutory Trusts (“DST”).  We earn fees from the joint venture for providing asset management, property management, acquisition and leasing services.  We will continue to receive management and leasing fees for those properties under management; even after all of the TIC or DST interests have been sold.
 
Operations
 

27

Table of Contents

We actively manage costs to minimize operating expenses by centralizing all management, leasing, marketing, financing, accounting and data processing activities to provide operating efficiencies.  We seek to improve rental income and cash flow by aggressively marketing rentable space.  We emphasize regular maintenance and periodic renovation to meet the needs of tenants and to maximize long-term returns.  We maintain a diversified tenant base consisting primarily of retail tenants providing consumer goods and services.  We proactively review our existing portfolio for potential re-development opportunities.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our most liquid asset is cash and cash equivalents that consist of cash and short-term investments.  Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were $18,891 and $18,505, respectively.  See our discussion of the statements of cash flows for a description of our cash activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
 
We consider all demand deposits, money market accounts and investments in certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements purchased with a maturity of three months or less, at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents.  We maintain our cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions.  The combined account balances at one or more institutions could periodically exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance coverage and, as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage.  However, we do not believe the risk is significant based on our review of the rating of the institutions where our cash is deposited.  FDIC insurance currently covers up to $250 per depositor at each insured bank.

Sources of cash

Income generated from our investment properties is the primary source from which we generate cash.  Other sources of cash include amounts raised from the sale of securities, including shares of our common stock sold under our DRP and ongoing ATM issuance program, draws on our unsecured line of credit facility, which may be limited due to covenant compliance requirements, proceeds from financings secured by our investment properties, cash flows we retain that are not distributed to our stockholders and fee income received from our unconsolidated joint venture properties.  As of September 30, 2013, we were in compliance with all financial covenants applicable to us.  We had up to $75,000 available under our $180,000 line of credit facility and an additional $100,000 available under an accordion feature.  The access to the accordion feature requires approval of the lending group.  If approved, the terms for the funds borrowed under the accordion feature would be market terms at the time of the borrowing and not the terms of the other borrowings under the line of credit facility.  The lending group is not obligated to approve access to funds under the accordion feature.  We use our cash primarily to pay distributions to our stockholders, for operating expenses at our investment properties, for interest expense on our debt obligations, for purchasing additional investment properties and capital commitments at existing investment properties, to meet joint venture commitments, to repay draws on the line of credit facility and for retiring mortgages payable.
 
In the aggregate, our investment properties are currently generating sufficient cash flow to pay our operating expenses, monthly debt service requirements, certain capital expenditures and current distributions.  Monthly debt service requirements consist primarily of interest payments on our debt obligations although certain of our secured mortgages require monthly principal amortization.

We also own marketable securities of other entities, including REITs.  These investments are generally liquid and could be sold to generate cash.  These investments in available-for-sale securities totaled $3,587 at September 30, 2013, consisting of preferred and common stock investments.  At September 30, 2013, we had recorded an accumulated net unrealized loss of $37 on these investment securities.  Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities are specifically identified and determined.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, we realized gains on sale of $271 and $1,090, respectively, as compared to $305 and $1,396 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.

As noted above, we also fund certain of our liquidity needs through the sale of our common stock in "at the market" or "ATM" issuances. Under this program, we may issue up to $150,000 of our shares of common stock through the ATM issuances. BMO Capital Markets Corp., Jefferies & Company, Inc. and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc. (together the "Agents") act as our sales agent(s) for these issuances which may be made in privately negotiated transactions or by any other method deemed to be an "at the market" offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange or to or through a market maker. We refer to the arrangement with the Agents in this report on Form 10-Q as our "ATM issuance program." During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we issued approximately 996 shares of our common stock through the ATM issuance program, generating net proceeds of approximately $9,948, comprised of approximately $10,100 in gross proceeds, offset by approximately $152 in commissions and fees.

Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we issued 9,000 shares of common stock through an underwritten equity offering, generating net proceeds after the underwriting discount of approximately $91,600. These proceeds were used to partially fund our acquisition of our partner's interest in the IN Retail Fund LLC joint venture.

Uses of Cash
 
Our largest cash outlays relate to the payment of distributions to our preferred and common stockholders, the operation of our properties and interest expense on our mortgages payable and other debt obligations. Property operation outlays include, but are not limited to, real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, regular maintenance, landscaping, snow removal and periodic renovations to meet tenant needs. Pursuant to lease arrangements, most tenants are required to reimburse us for some or all of their pro rata share of the real estate taxes and operating expenses of the property.

Since the most recent economic downturn, we have been successful in restoring stability to our portfolio. We believe that the stability of our portfolio, the lack of new supply of retail space, and the continued demand from growing retailers has put us in excellent position to be proactive in upgrading the quality of our tenancy and increasing rents. We continue to focus on leasing vacant spaces, but we are also focusing on right-sizing certain retailers and repositioning other centers to manage tenant exposures and open up space to accommodate larger tenants. These activities may require us to take tenants off-line during construction that may have a temporary adverse effect on our results of operations during the period the tenant is not paying rent. We are proactive in moving forward with these activities, as we believe the long term benefits outweigh the temporary decline in cash flows and net operating income.

In 2013, we expanded our program to re-position select centers in our portfolio to accommodate in-demand retail concepts and increase asset value. We currently have several projects underway and others under consideration. At various points throughout 2013, a total of approximately 350,000 square feet has been or will be out of service in conjunction with planned repositioning projects, which we expect to come back on line in 2014. The loss in revenue from taking this space off-line will be partially offset by revenue coming on-line for leases signed during 2012 and 2013. During 2012, we invested approximately $25,000 in capital for tenant improvements and leasing commission on new leases and building improvements related to some of these repositioning efforts. We funded these improvements using cash from operations and draws on our unsecured line of credit facility. We expect to invest approximately the same amount in 2013 using the same sources of cash.
 
Reference is made to the Total Debt Maturity Schedule in Note 11, “Secured and Unsecured Debt” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our total debt outstanding as of September 30, 2013, which is incorporated into this Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
 
Approximately $142,616 of consolidated debt matures in the next twelve months. Included in the debt maturing in 2013 is approximately $90,247 secured by our Algonquin Commons property. Although these loans do not mature until November 2014, we have included them in 2013 because the lender has accelerated the due date of the loans in connection with its decision to initiate foreclosure proceedings. We intend to repay the other remaining maturing debt upon maturity using available cash and/or borrowings under our unsecured line of credit facility.

In June 2012, we ceased paying the monthly debt service on the mortgage loans encumbering Algonquin Commons. We had hoped to reach an agreement with the special servicer that would have revised the loan structure to make continued ownership

of the property economically feasible. In January 2013, we received notice that a complaint had been filed by the successors to the lender, alleging events of default under the loan documents and, among other things, seeking to foreclose on the property. In connection with the complaint, the plaintiff filed a motion for appointment of a receiver and the court granted the motion and issued an order effective March 1, 2013, appointing a receiver for the property. As a result, the receiver and its affiliated management company are now managing and operating Algonquin Commons and are collecting all rents for the property. We cannot currently estimate the impact the dispute will have on our consolidated financial statements and may not be able to do so until a final outcome has been reached. We believe the payment guaranty under the loan documents has, however, ceased and is of no further force and effect as a result of the conditions for termination of the guaranty having been met when the property met the performance metrics set forth in the guaranty. As we have previously disclosed, if we are required to pay the full $18,600 outstanding under the guaranty, then making that payment could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated statements of cash flows for the period and the year in which it would be made and it could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the period and the year in which the disposal of the property and related debt occur. We believe that this payment would not have a material effect on our consolidated balance sheets. If we are required to pay under the payment guaranty, we expect to fund this payment using available cash and/or a draw on our unsecured line of credit facility.

In October, 2012, we entered into a First Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Limited Partnership Agreement of our joint venture with PGGM.  Subject to the terms and conditions of the Amendment, the partners increased the potential maximum equity contributions to allow for the acquisition of up to an additional $400,000 of grocery-anchored and community retail centers located in Midwestern U.S. markets, using partner equity and secured debt.  The Amendment increased our potential maximum equity contribution to $280,000 and PGGM’s potential maximum equity contribution to $230,000.  The Amendment allows for a two-year investment period and no contributions are required unless and until both partners approve an additional acquisition.  We will fund our equity contributions with draws on our line of credit facility, proceeds from sales of investment properties, proceeds from financing unencumbered properties or the sale of preferred or common stock. As of September 30, 2013, PGGM's remaining maximum potential contribution was approximately $75,000 and ours was approximately $91,000.

2013 Compared to 2012
 
Net cash provided by operating activities was $46,115 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $44,223 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  The increase in cash provided by operating activities is due to an improvement in property operations, which is primarily due to the consolidation during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of the properties that were formally held in our joint venture with NYSTR. See our discussion below under Results of Operations for an explanation related to property operations.

Net cash used in investing activities was $117,801 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $155,139 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  The primary reason for the decrease in cash used in investing activities was the receipt of $52,978 from the sale of joint venture interests related to properties owned in our joint venture with IPCC during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $9,816 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. We used $157,928 to purchase investment properties and spent $12,787 in additions to investment properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the use of $176,116 to purchase investment properties and $18,105 of additions to investment properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Additionally, we invested $16,632 in unconsolidated joint ventures, net of distributions received for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to receiving $17,096 in distributions from unconsolidated joint ventures, net of investment in unconsolidated joint ventures for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $72,072 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $114,030 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  The primary reason for the decrease in cash provided by financing activities was the use of $719 to repay debt, net of loan proceeds, the receipt of$25,000 in net proceeds on our unsecured line of credit facility, and $5,000 in proceeds from our term loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the receipt of $101,883 of loan proceeds, net of debt payoffs, $25,000 in net pay downs from our unsecured line of credit facility, and $25,000 in proceeds from our term loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Additionally, we received $104,046 from the issuance of shares, net of offering costs, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $60,825 from the issuance of shares, net of offering costs, during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
 
Results of Operations
 

32

Table of Contents

This section describes and compares our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.  At September 30, 2013, we had ownership interests in 41 single-user retail properties, 57 Neighborhood Centers, 24 Community Centers, 38 Power Centers and 1 Lifestyle Center.  We generate almost all of our net operating income from property operations.  One metric that management uses to evaluate our overall portfolio is same store net operating income in which management analyzes the net operating income of properties that we have owned and operated for the same three and nine month periods during each year. These properties are referred to herein as “same store” properties.  Property net operating income is a non-GAAP measure that allows management to monitor the operations of our existing properties for comparable periods to measure the performance of our current portfolio and determine the effects of our new acquisitions on net income.  We believe that net operating income is also meaningful as an indicator of the effectiveness of our management of properties because net operating income excludes certain items that are not reflective of management, such as depreciation and interest expense.
 
A total of 90 of our investment properties were “same store” properties during the periods presented.  These properties comprise approximately 8.7 million square feet.  In the table below, “other investment properties” includes activity from properties acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 (including the consolidation of assets formerly in the NYSTRS joint venture) and the year ended December 31, 2012, properties contributed to our joint ventures and activity from properties owned through our joint venture with IPCC while these properties were consolidated.   Operations from properties acquired through this joint venture are recorded as consolidated until those properties become unconsolidated with the first sale of ownership interest to investors.  Once the operations are deconsolidated, the income is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.  The “same store” investment properties represent 77% of the square footage of our consolidated portfolio at September 30, 2013.  The following table presents the net operating income, broken out between “same store” and “other investment properties,” prior to straight-line rental income, amortization of lease intangibles, interest, depreciation, amortization and bad debt expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 along with reconciliation to net income attributable to common stockholders, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

On a “same store” basis, (comparing the results of operations of the investment properties owned during the three months ended September 30, 2013 with the results of the same investment properties during the three months ended September 30, 2012), property net operating income increased $2,681 with total property income increasing $3,085 and total property operating expenses increasing $404.

On a “same store” basis, (comparing the results of operations of the investment properties owned during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 with the results of the same investment properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2012), property net operating income increased $3,720 with total property income increasing $6,345 and total property operating expenses increasing $2,625.

Table of Contents

Net income attributable to common stockholders increased $3,985 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012 and increased $108,191 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
 
Rental income
Rental income decreased $4 on a “same store” basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease is due to our proactive approach of taking certain tenant spaces off-line to redevelop or re-position certain properties to provide greater long-term value. The loss in revenue from taking these spaces off-line is partially offset by income generated by increased rental rates on renewed leases, new leases signed during the respective periods and the end of any associated rent abatement periods.  Including "other investment properties," total rental income increased $6,269 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012, reflecting an increase in rental income from our “other investment properties.”  This increase is primarily due to the consolidation of the properties formerly held in our joint venture with NYSTRS. This increase is partially offset by the impact of contributing properties to our joint venture with PGGM during 2012.  These properties are deconsolidated upon contribution to the joint venture.

Rental income increased $1,698 on a “same store” basis, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, primarily due to increased rental rates on renewed leases, new leases signed during the respective periods and the end of any associated rent abatement periods. Including "other investment properties," total rental income increased $8,407 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, reflecting an increase in rental income from our “other investment properties.”  This increase is primarily due to the same reasons as described for the three month period.
 
Tenant recovery income
Tenant recovery income increased $1,216 on a “same store” basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.  Including "other investment properties," total tenant recovery income increased $4,773 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.  The primary reason for the fluctuation in tenant recovery income is a corresponding fluctuation in the amount of property operating and real estate tax expenses, both of which are recoverable under tenant leases. Additionally the rate at which we recover expenses has increased in connection with new leases signed during the respective periods and the end of any associated rent abatement periods.

Tenant recovery income increased $3,115 on a “same store” basis, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Including "other investment properties," total tenant recovery income increased $7,480 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  The primary reason for the fluctuation in tenant recovery income is the same as described for the three month period.
 
Property operating expenses
Property operating expenses increased $290 on a “same store” basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.  Including "other investment properties," total property operating expenses increased $1,276 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.  This increase is primarily due to the consolidation during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of the properties formerly held in our joint venture with NYSTRS.

Property operating expenses increased $1,754 on a “same store” basis, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Including "other investment properties," total property operating expenses increased $2,950 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  The increase in property operating expenses during the period is due primarily to increased snow removal costs. Additionally, the increase is due to the same reason as described for the three month period.
 
Real estate tax expense
Real estate tax expense increased $114 on a “same store” basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.  Including "other investment properties," total real estate tax expense increased $3,091for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.  The change in real estate tax expense is a result of changes in the assessed values of our investment properties or the tax rates charged by the various taxing authorities. Additionally, the increase is primarily due to the consolidation during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of the properties formerly held in our joint venture with NYSTRS. The increase in real estate tax expenses was partially offset by the effect of the contribution of properties to our joint venture with PGGM during 2012.

Real estate tax expense increased $871 on a “same store” basis, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Including "other investment properties," total real estate tax expense increased $4,311 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  The increase in real estate tax expense is due to the same reasons as described for the three month period.

Other income 
Other income increased $143 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012

Other income decreased $1,120 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  The decrease in other income is due to the settlement of an outstanding obligation with the prior owner of one of our investment properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, decreased dividends earned on our investment portfolio and decreased gains on the sale of investment securities.
 
Fee income from unconsolidated joint ventures
Fee income from unconsolidated joint ventures increased $92 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.  The increase is due to increased acquisition fees earned on sales of interests through our joint venture with IPCC. Acquisition fees earned may vary based on the number of properties sold, the original acquisition prices of the properties and the timing of the sales in each period. Additionally, fee income increased due to increased asset management and property management fees from our unconsolidated joint ventures due to increased revenues as a result of an increased number of properties under management. These increases were partially offset by decreased management fee income after the consolidation during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of the properties formerly held in our joint venture with NYSTRS.

Fee income from unconsolidated joint ventures increased $1,579 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, due primarily to the same items impacting the three month period.

Gain from settlement of receivables
In May 2012, we acquired the notes encumbering Eola Commons and Winfield Pointe Center for a total of $3,969, a discount to their face value. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we acquired title to these properties through foreclosure proceedings. Upon ownership transfer, we valued these properties utilizing information obtained from third party sources and internal valuation calculations, comprised of a discounted cash flow model, using discount rates and capitalization rates applied to the expected future cash flows of the property. In conjunction with the acquisitions, the notes were extinguished. The fair value of Eola Commons was determined to be $3,994 and the fair value of Winfield Pointe Center was $2,583. The title transfer resulted in a gain of $2,410.

In April 2012, we entered into a loan agreement with a developer related to Warsaw Commons Shopping Center. The loan agreement included a requirement that we purchase the property upon completion, at a pre-determined price. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the project was completed and we acquired the property for $11,393, subject to future earnout payments. Due to our purchase obligation, the loan fee and interest income related to the note were not reflected as income on our consolidated statements of operations. The balance of the outstanding note, for financial statement purposes was $10,272, at the time of closing. The settlement of this outstanding note resulted in a gain of $685.

Gain from change in control of investment properties
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we recorded a gain on the change in control of investment properties in the amount of $95,378 and $1,043, respectively.

Prior to the change in control transactions, each property discussed below was unconsolidated and was accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Upon consolidation, we valued these properties utilizing information obtained from third party sources and internal valuation calculations, comprised of a discounted cash flow model, using discount rates and capitalization rates applied to the expected future cash flows of the properties. We estimated the fair value of the outstanding debt by discounting the future cash flows of the instrument at rates currently offered for similar debt instruments.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we completed the acquisition of the 50 percent ownership interest of New York State Teachers’ Retirement System (“NYSTRS”) in the IN Retail Fund, L.L.C. (“IN Retail”) joint venture entity. We now own 100 percent of the outstanding membership interests in IN Retail, and the assets, liabilities and results of operations of IN Retail are now included in our consolidated financial statements beginning with the June 3, 2013 acquisition date. We acquired the 50% interest of NYSTRS in IN Retail for approximately $121,100 in cash. We funded the acquisition utilizing $91,600 received from selling 9,000 shares of our common stock during the period, cash on hand and funds received from a draw on our

$180,000 line of credit facility. The fair value of the portfolio was determined to be approximately $396,000 and total outstanding mortgage debt of approximately $152,200, plus other related assets and liabilities. The consolidation of these properties resulted in a gain of approximately $95,378.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we, on behalf of the joint ventures formed to develop all phases of the property known as North Aurora Towne Center, negotiated with the lender of the indebtedness secured by the property to repay the mortgage payable, which matured in July 2011, at a discount. We contributed $10,000 to the joint venture to repay the entire $30,537 outstanding mortgage, resulting in a gain on the extinguishment of debt to us in the amount of $20,537. In conjunction with this debt repayment, the joint ventures previously established to develop this property were dissolved, ownership was conveyed to us and the development property and remaining indebtedness were consolidated by us. The consolidation of this property resulted in a loss of approximately $19,494. We recorded a net gain on change in control of $1,043 related to this transaction.

Gain on sale of joint venture interest
Gain on sale of joint venture interest increased $363 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. This is due to increased gains on sale in connection with sales of interest in properties through our joint venture with IPCC. Gains recorded may vary based on the number of properties sold, the timing of the sales in each period and the hold period of each asset.

Gain on sale of joint venture interest increased $1,033 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, due to the same reason as discussed above.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $1,286 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. The primary reason for the increase was increased net operating income on the unconsolidated pool of properties due to acquisitions through our joint venture with PGGM and increased "same store" net operating income. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in income from our joint venture with NYSTRS, after the properties were consolidated.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $4,010 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, due to the same reasons as discussed above.

Income Tax Benefit (expense) of taxable REIT subsidiaries
Income tax benefit was $296 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and income tax expense was $1,499 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, due primarily to the reversal of the deferred tax asset for asset impairments resulting from the sale of property during the periods. For tax purposes, the asset impairment was previously disallowed until the time of sale, and as a result, the impairment related to the property is included in the taxable income calculation for 2013.

Income tax expense was $334 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and income tax benefit was $4,347 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, due to a decrease in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets in 2012. The decrease in this allowance was primarily due to adjustments to the beginning-of-the-year balance of the valuation allowance because of a change in circumstances that caused a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax assets in future years. Our judgment changed due to the change in control transactions described above and the related fair value adjustments and gains on extinguishments of debt.

Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased $6,649 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012, due to depreciation expense recorded on newly acquired investment properties, including the consolidation of the properties formerly held in our joint venture with NYSTRS, new tenant improvement assets for work related to new leases and additional properties owned through our joint venture with IPCC, while they were consolidated.

Depreciation and amortization increased $5,150 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase is due to the same reasons explained above for the three month period. This increase is partially offset by the write off of tenant improvement assets, as a result of lease terminations during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and the contribution of properties to our joint venture with PGGM.

General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $529 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase is due primarily to an increase in payroll and related items as a result of

37

Table of Contents

additional staff for our increasing portfolio of assets under management and increased legal costs related to general corporate matters, including our ongoing litigation regarding the Algonquin Commons foreclosure.

General and administrative expenses increased $1,544 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, due to the same factors described above.
 
Interest expense
Interest expense increased $203 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase is primarily due to the consolidation during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of the properties formerly held in our joint venture with NYSTRS.  The increase is partially offset by decreased interest expense on our unsecured line of credit facility and term loan, subsequent to the amendments entered into in August 2013.

Interest expense decreased $1,182 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  The decrease is primarily due to decreased interest on our unsecured credit facilities due to lower interest rates. The decrease is partially offset by the increase in mortgage interest expense from the consolidation of properties described for the three month period.

Income from discontinued operations
Income from discontinued operations increased $315 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012, due primarily to increased gains from the sale of investment properties and vacant land.

Income from discontinued operations increased $7,953 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012 due in most part to receiving a lease termination fee of $3,299 from the tenant at our Cub Foods location in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, just prior to selling the property to a third party. Additionally, we recorded higher gains on the sale of investment properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Portfolio Activity
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, our leasing activity remained strong and our leasing spreads were positive on both new and renewal leases in our consolidated portfolio. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we executed 34 new, 128 renewal and 35 non-comparable leases (expansion square footage or spaces for which no former tenant was in place for one year or more), aggregating approximately 1,192,000 square feet on our consolidated portfolio.  The 34 new leases comprise approximately 302,000 square feet with an average rental rate of $11.95 per square foot, a 7.1% increase over the average expiring rate.  The 128 renewal leases comprise approximately 789,000 square feet with an average rental rate of $12.72 per square foot, a 6.8% increase over the average expiring rate.  The 35 non-comparable leases comprise approximately 101,000 square feet with an average base rent of $13.36 per square foot.  The calculations of former and new average base rents are adjusted for rent abatements.  For leases signed during the 24 month period ended September 30, 2013, the average leasing commission was approximately $5 per square foot, the average cost for tenant improvements was approximately $20 per square foot and the average period given for rent abatements was three to five months. 
 
During the remainder of 2013, 56 leases, comprising approximately 206,000 square feet and accounting for approximately 2.1% of our annualized base rent, will be expiring in our consolidated portfolio.  We do not believe that any of the expiring leases are individually material to our financial results.  The weighted average expiring rate on these leases is $14.59 per square foot.  We will continue to attempt to renew expiring leases and re-lease those spaces that are vacant, or may become vacant, at more favorable rental rates to increase revenue and cash flow.

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

Joint Ventures
 
Consolidated joint ventures are those in which we have a controlling financial interest in the joint venture or are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity.  The primary beneficiary is the party that has a controlling financial interest in the VIE, which is defined as having both of the following characteristics: 1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance, and 2) the obligation to absorb losses or right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE.  The third parties’ interests in these consolidated entities are reflected as noncontrolling interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
Unconsolidated Real Estate Joint Ventures
 
Reference is made to Note 3, “Unconsolidated Joint Ventures” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our unconsolidated joint ventures as of September 30, 2013, which is incorporated into this Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
 
Development Joint Ventures
 
Our development joint ventures were designed to take advantage of what we believed were the unique strengths of each development team, while potentially diversifying our risk.  Our development partners identified opportunities, assembled and completed the entitlement process for the land, and gauged national “big box” retailer interest in the location before bringing the project to us for consideration.  We contributed financing, leasing, and property management expertise to enhance the productivity of the new developments and were typically entitled to earn a preferred return on our portion of invested capital.

During the recent economic downturn, a number of retailers delayed new store openings until market conditions substantially improved.  In light of this marketplace reality, we have extended delivery dates for these projects and we will not have the ability to estimate the project completion dates until activity resumes.  We do not anticipate resuming construction activity at any particular property until a tenant or tenants commit to lease a majority of the GLA at the applicable property. As a result of

39

Table of Contents

the project delays, we were required to record significant impairment losses related to these projects in prior years.  Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, a further impairment of $1,730 was recorded at one of our development joint ventures. Our pro rata share of this impairment loss, equal to $692 is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. In conjunction with these impairment losses, we were required to write down our investment in certain projects to zero as we determined that it was not likely we would recover our invested capital from future cash flows of each project.
 
To provide clarity as to the current status of our remaining development projects, we have divided them into two categories; active projects and land held for future development.
 
The projects considered active projects are Savannah Crossing in Aurora, Illinois and Southshore Shopping Center in Boise, Idaho.  Construction is essentially complete at Savannah Crossing and Southshore Shopping Center is a redevelopment of an existing building.
 
The remaining development property, Lantern Commons in Westfield, Indiana is categorized as land held for future development. 
 
We cannot be sure of the exact nature or amounts of capital needed for construction or improvements to development properties until we have signed commitments from retailers because we will deploy these amounts only at that time.

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

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

The following schedules present our pro-rata consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, reconciled to our U.S. GAAP financial statements. These financial statements are considered non-GAAP because they include financial information related to unconsolidated joint ventures accounted for under the equity method of accounting. We provide these statements to include the pro rata amounts of all properties under management in order to better compare our overall performance and operating metrics to those of other REITs in our peer group.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
We may enter into derivative financial instrument transactions in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument.  We may designate these derivative financial instruments as hedges and apply hedge accounting, as the instrument to be hedged will expose us to interest rate risk, and the derivative financial instrument is designed to reduce that exposure.  Gains or losses related to the derivative financial instrument would be deferred and amortized over the terms of the hedged instrument.  If a derivative terminates or is sold, the gain or loss is recognized.  As of September 30, 2013, we have one interest rate swap contract, which was entered into as a requirement under a secured mortgage.
 
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates to the fact that some of our long-term debt bears interest at variable rates.  These variable rate loans are based on LIBOR, therefore, fluctuations in LIBOR impact our results of operations.  We seek to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs by closely monitoring our variable rate debt and converting this debt to fixed rates when we deem such conversion advantageous.
 
Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques, including periodically evaluating fixed interest rate quotes on all variable rate debt and the costs associated with converting the debt to fixed rate debt.  Also, existing fixed and variable rate loans which are scheduled to mature in the next year or two are evaluated for possible early refinancing or extension based on our view of the current interest rate environment. The table below presents the principal amount of the debt maturing each year, including monthly annual amortization of principal, through December 31, 2017 and thereafter and weighted average interest rates for the debt maturing in each specified period. The instruments, the principal amounts of which are presented below, were entered into for non-trading purposes.

  ________________________________________
(a)
Approximately $142,616 of our mortgages payable mature in the next twelve months.  Included in the debt maturing in 2013 is approximately $90,247 secured by the Algonquin Commons property. Although the Algonquin Commons loans do not mature until November 2014, we have included them in 2013 because the lender has accelerated the due date of the loans in connection with its decision to initiate foreclosure proceedings. We intend to repay the other remaining maturing debt upon maturity using available cash and/or borrowings under our unsecured line of credit facility.
(b)
The fair value of debt is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.  We estimate the fair value of our debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered to us for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by our lenders (Level 3). 
(c)
Included in the debt maturing in 2014 are our convertible notes issued during 2010, which mature in 2029.  They are included in 2014 because that is the earliest date these notes can be redeemed or the note holders can require us to repurchase their notes.  The total for convertible notes above reflects the total principal amount outstanding, in the amount of $29,215.  The consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2013 reflect the value of the notes including the remaining unamortized discount of $541.
(d)
The total debt above reflects the total principal amount outstanding.  The consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2013 reflect the value of the debt including the remaining unamortized mortgages premium/discount of $3,306.
(e)
Included in the debt maturing during 2017 is our unsecured line of credit facility, totaling $105,000.  We pay interest only during the term of this facility at a variable rate equal to a spread over LIBOR, in effect at the time of the borrowing, which fluctuates with our leverage ratio.  As of September 30, 2013, the weighted average interest rate on outstanding draws on the line of credit facility was 1.69%.  This credit facility requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of September 30, 2013, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.
(f)
Included in the thereafter column is our $180,000 term loan, which matures in August 2018.  We pay interest only during the term of this loan at a variable rate equal to a spread over LIBOR, in effect at the time of the borrowing, which fluctuates with our leverage ratio.  As of September 30, 2013, the weighted average interest rate on the term loan was 1.64%.  This term loan requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of September 30, 2013, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.
(g)
Included in the thereafter column is our $50,000 term loan which matures in November 2018.  We pay interest only during the term of this loan at a variable rate, with an interest rate floor of 3.50%.  As of September 30, 2013, the interest rate on this term loan was 3.50%.  This term loan requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of September 30, 2013, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.
 
Our ultimate exposure to interest rate fluctuations depends on the amount of indebtedness that bears interest at variable rates, the time at which the interest rate is adjusted, the amount of the adjustment, our ability to prepay or refinance variable rate indebtedness, fixed rate debt that matures and needs to be refinanced and hedging strategies used to reduce the impact of any increases in rates.

At September 30, 2013, approximately $376,200, or 43%, of our debt bore interest at variable rates, with a weighted average rate of 1.97% per annum. An increase in the variable interest rates charged on debt containing variable interest rate terms constitutes a market risk.  A 1.0% annualized increase in interest rates would have increased our interest expense by approximately $2,822 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Equity Price Risk
 
Equity price risk is the risk that we will incur economic losses due to adverse changes in equity prices.  Our exposure to changes in equity prices is a result of our investment in securities.  At September 30, 2013, our investment in securities, classified as available for sale, totaled $3,587.  The carrying values of investments in securities subject to equity price risks are based on quoted market prices as of the date of the applicable consolidated balance sheets.  Market prices are subject to fluctuation and, therefore, the amount realized in the subsequent sale of an investment may significantly differ from the reported market value.  Fluctuation in the market price of a security may result from any number of factors including perceived changes in the underlying fundamental characteristics of the issuer, the relative price of alternative investments and general market conditions.  Additionally, amounts realized in the sale of a particular security may be affected by the relative quantity of the security being sold.  We do not engage in derivative or other hedging transactions to manage our equity price risk.
 
Although it is difficult to project what factors may affect the prices of equity sectors and how much the effect might be, a 10% increase or decrease in the fair value of our available-for-sale securities as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, would change their fair values by $359 and $771, respectively.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify our financial reports and to the members of senior management and the board of directors.
 
Based on management’s evaluation as of September 30, 2013, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) were effective as of the date of evaluation to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
