PART I

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-K are stated in thousands with the exception of per share amounts, per square foot amounts, square feet, number of properties, number of states, number of leases and number of employees.

Item 1.  Business
 
General
 
We strive to be a leading owner and operator of high quality, necessity and value based retail centers located in prime locations throughout the Central and Southeastern United States. We seek to generate predictable, sustainable cash flows and to continually enhance shareholder value through the expert management and strategic improvement of our portfolio of premier retail properties.

We are a Maryland corporation formed on May 12, 1994.  To date, we have focused on acquiring and owning open-air neighborhood, community and power shopping centers and single-tenant retail properties located primarily in the Central 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. Approximately fifty-nine percent of our total retail portfolio (consolidated plus unconsolidated) gross leasable area (“GLA”) is located in the Chicago Metropolitan Statistical Area (“MSA”), with our second largest market concentration being approximately seventeen percent in the Minneapolis-St. Paul MSA.  As of December 31, 2013, we owned interests in 157 investment properties, including those owned through our unconsolidated joint ventures, comprised of:

Fifty-three neighborhood retail centers totaling approximately 3,797,000 gross leasable square feet;
Thirty-one community centers totaling approximately 3,869,000 gross leasable square feet;
Thirty-six power centers totaling approximately 5,687,000 gross leasable square feet;
One lifestyle center totaling approximately 564,000 gross leasable square feet; and
Thirty-six single-user properties totaling approximately 996,000 gross leasable square feet.
The following chart shows the allocation of our portfolio by property type, based on percentage of gross leasable square feet:
Management has implemented internal growth initiatives that utilize our financing, acquisition, leasing and property management expertise to drive income growth:
Continue to improve our tenant diversification and expand our geographic concentration, with increased footprints in the Central and Southeastern U.S.
Continue to enhance the value of our portfolio through additional repositioning and redevelopment initiatives.
Redeploy capital from dispositions of non-core, limited growth assets into acquisitions of high quality retail assets.
Continue to reduce the cost and extend the term of our debt and reduce our overall leverage over time, which will improve our financial flexibility and liquidity by maintaining access to multiple sources of capital.

In addition to our internal growth initiatives, management has implemented external growth initiatives, through the following types of joint ventures: 

joint venture with Inland Private Capital Corporation (“IPCC”), through which we source, acquire and manage properties for individuals and entities intending to invest in Delaware Statutory Trust (“DST”) entities;

asset-based joint ventures with New York State Teachers Retirement System (“NYSTRS”) and PGGM Private Real Estate Fund (“PGGM”), through which we source, acquire and manage Midwest retail properties. These joint ventures with NYSTRS and PGGM enable us to generate fee income via the acquisition, leasing, and property management services we provide to the ventures. 

development joint venture with MAB American Retail Partners, LLC ("MAB") to develop grocery-anchored shopping centers in select markets throughout the southeastern U.S.
 
Our joint venture with IPCC, originally formed in 2006, leverages our respective skill sets to access the growth potential of the DST market and increase our fee income.  In accordance with the agreement, we source properties and provide financing, acquisition and asset management expertise through the venture, while IPCC provides syndication expertise and access, through Inland Securities Corporation, to a network of broker dealers that market the properties to DST investors.  We believe our joint venture with IPCC enables us to effectively manage our resources due to the revolving nature of the investment capital and is a capital-efficient means to generate additional transaction fee income and a long-term asset and management fee income stream which is received for managing properties for these entities. 

Our former joint venture with NYSTRS was formed in 2004, and each partner owned a 50 percent interest in the 13 properties in the venture and shared equally in the profits and losses. In June 2013, we brought this joint venture full cycle when we acquired the 50 percent ownership interest of our partner in the joint venture entity for approximately $121,100 in cash. Our decision to acquire our partner's interest was based on advancing our strategic goals to increase the size and quality of our consolidated portfolio, simplify the ownership structure and strengthen our balance sheet by consolidating a portfolio with less leverage than our existing portfolio.

The PGGM joint venture was formed in June 2010 to acquire grocery-anchored and community retail centers in Midwestern U.S. markets. The joint venture was fully funded during the initial two-year investment period and in October 2012, we completed an amendment to the partnership agreement, to increase the maximum contributions of each partner. As of December 31, 2013, the PGGM joint venture had acquired stabilized retail assets worth approximately $638,000 in acquisition value. PGGM owns a 45 percent equity interest and we own a 55 percent equity interest in the joint venture and share in the profits and losses at the respective ownership percentages.

In November 2013, we entered into a joint venture to develop grocery-anchored shopping centers in select markets throughout the southeastern U.S. with MAB, an affiliate of Melbourne, Australia-based MAB Corporation. The five-year development program is expected to target metropolitan areas in the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, Virginia and Washington D.C. MAB Corporation is a privately owned property development company and fund manager that has completed retail, office, multi-family and industrial projects at locations in Australia, New Zealand and the U.S. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, we have exclusive rights to all grocery-anchored, build-to-suit opportunities in the southeastern U.S. sourced by MAB. Upon site approval by us, we will provide 90% of the equity required to fund approved project costs, while MAB will be responsible for the remaining 10% of the equity, plus venture management, sourcing and acquisition of sites, project financing and all property and development duties. The joint venture agreement also provides that we will purchase each grocery-anchored center at a discount to fair market value after stabilization. A typical project likely will consist of a 50,000-square-foot grocery store with approximately 20,000 square feet of additional retail space.

Competition
 
In seeking new investment opportunities, we compete with other real estate companies, and at our current investment properties, we compete with other owners of similar properties for tenants. 
 
Our business is competitive.  We compete with other property owners on the basis of location, rental rates, operating expenses, visibility, quality of the property, volume of traffic, strength and name recognition of other tenants at each location and other factors.  These competitive factors affect the level of occupancy and rental rates that we are able to achieve at our investment properties.  In addition, our tenants compete against other forms of retailing such as catalog companies and e-commerce websites that offer similar retail products.  To remain competitive, we evaluate all of the factors affecting our centers and try to position them accordingly.  We believe that retailers consider consumer demographics; quality, design and location of

3

properties; the diversity of the retailers and anchor tenants at our investment property locations; management and operational expertise; and rental rates, when making their leasing decisions.  Considering these factors, we believe the overall quality and location of our individual properties allow us to effectively compete for retailers in our markets.  Because our revenues are ultimately linked to our tenant’s success, we are indirectly affected by the same competitive factors, such as consumer spending habits and on-line shopping, as our tenants.
 
Segments
 
We assess and measure operating results on an individual property basis.  Since all of our investment properties exhibit highly similar economic characteristics, generally have tenants that offer products catering to the day-to-day living needs of individuals and offer similar degrees of risk and opportunities for growth, the shopping centers have been aggregated and reported as one operating segment.  See footnote 17 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our segment reporting.  Information for each of the last five fiscal years about revenues, a measure of income and total assets, can be found in Item 6 of this Form 10-K.
 
Significant Tenants

We derive significant revenues from anchor tenants such as Safeway, Roundy's and TJX Companies, Inc, which are the three largest anchor tenants in our consolidated portfolio and accounted for 3.9%, 3.3% and 3.2%, respectively of our consolidated annualized base rent for the year ended December 31, 2013.

In October 2013, Safeway announced that they would be exiting the Chicagoland market by closing all of the Dominick's stores. We have six Dominick's stores in our consolidated portfolio, two already dark and four that were operating and one operating store in our unconsolidated portfolio. As of December 31, 2013, the Dominick's stores in our portfolio closed, however, Safeway remains obligated under all of the leases and we expect that they will continue to honor their lease obligations.

Subsequent to the end of the year, we sold a consolidated Dominick's store, located in Countryside, Illinois to an unaffiliated third party at price above our current carrying value. Additionally, we have been notified by Dominick's that the leases for one of the consolidated Dominick's stores and the one unconsolidated store have been assigned to grocery operators.

The lease at the unconsolidated location, part of Woodland Commons, located in Buffalo Grove, Illinois has been assigned and will be operated as a Mariano's grocery store. The lease at the consolidated location, part of Downers Grove Marketplace, located in Downers Grove, Illinois has been assigned and will be operated as a Caputo's grocery store. We are still awaiting notification of any lease assignments for our four remaining locations, although we do not anticipate a lease assignment of the two previously non-operating locations.

Tax Status
 
We have qualified and 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.  Because we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally are 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 we distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our stockholders, subject to certain adjustments.  If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, without the benefit of certain relief provisions of the Code, we will be subject to federal and state income taxes on our taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income, property or net worth and federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income. 
 
We engage in certain activities through our wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS entities”), Inland Venture Corporation (“IVC”), Inland Exchange Venture Corporation (“IEVC”) and Inland TRS Property Management, Inc.  These TRS 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 our joint ventures and the sales of ownership interests through our IPCC joint venture.  The TRS entities are subject to federal and state income and franchise taxes from these activities.

Employees
 
As of December 31, 2013, we employed a total of 129 people, none of whom are represented by a union.

Environmental Matters
 
We review and monitor compliance with federal, state and local provisions, which have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of material into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment.  For the year ended December 31, 2013, we did not incur any material capital expenditures for environmental control facilities nor do we anticipate incurring material amounts during the remainder of the current fiscal year or the year ending December 31, 2015.
 
We believe that all of our investment properties comply in all material respects with all federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances.  The environmental condition of our investment properties may be adversely affected by our tenants, by conditions of near-by properties or by unrelated third parties.  All of our investment properties have been subjected to Phase I or similar environmental audits at the time they were acquired.  These audits, performed by independent consultants, generally involve a review of records and visual inspection of the property.  These audits do not include soil sampling or ground water analysis.  These audits may not, however, reveal all potential environmental liabilities.  Additionally, we periodically engage third party environmental specialists to complete site inspections on certain investment properties, namely those occupied by dry cleaners, oil change facilities and print shops, to ensure that the environmental condition of the respective property has not changed. No audits have revealed, nor are we aware of any environmental liability that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our operations. 
 
Green Initiatives
 
We are a member of the U.S. Green Building Council (“USGBC”), which allows us the ability to monitor and comment on conservation and sustainability trends in the marketplace.  We made a commitment to improving energy efficiency since sustainability became a national concern and long before Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (“LEED”) certification became possible for existing buildings and operations.  Over the past decade, many initiatives have been undertaken at the centers we own and manage that have resulted in reductions of energy consumption, waste and improved maintenance cycles.  Also, the savings we have obtained through the implementation of these initiatives makes our properties more competitive in the leasing marketplace.  Some initiatives that we have implemented are:
 
Locally grown drought and salt tolerant native grasses and perennials are utilized with smart irrigation controllers ensuring lower fuel waste for delivery, plant materials that can thrive in the environment and reduced water usage.
Electric timers allow each light pole to be remotely activated as needed with up to 30% turned off by midnight.  New pulse start ballasts and bulbs are being phased in to replace old ballasts.  New fixture head designs and configurations improve the quality of lighting at the same or less wattage.  Electricity savings results in a payback of three years.
New HVAC equipment is specified at a minimum of 12 SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratings) and economizers to reduce mechanical cooling loads and variable speed blowers reduce energy consumption.
Roof replacements are being specified with minimum R-19 insulation and TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) membrane systems to reduce cooling loads and improve heat retention.
Alternative transportation is supported through the use of bicycle racks at all shopping centers and establishment of public bus stops on or adjacent to properties.
Many national tenants have implemented their own initiatives including the use of energy management systems, use of more natural lighting, reduction of waste production, improved recycling programs and use of more renewable source materials.

Algonquin Commons

In June 2012, a Company subsidiary ceased paying the monthly debt service on the two mortgage loans secured by Algonquin Commons. The Company subsidiary 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, the Company subsidiary received notice that a complaint had been filed by the purported successor 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 February 28, 2013, appointing a receiver for the property. As a result, the receiver and its affiliated management company are now managing and operating Algonquin Commons and are collecting all rents for the property. Please see our full disclosure of this matter in Item 3, "Legal Proceedings" which is incorporated into this Item 1 "Business."

Item 1A.  Risk Factors
 
Set forth below are the risk factors that we believe are material to our investors.  The occurrence of any of the risks discussed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to pay distributions.
 
Real Estate Risks
 
Our performance and value are subject to risks associated with our real estate assets and with the real estate industry.  Our economic performance and the value of our real estate assets, and consequently the value of your shares, are subject to the risk that if our properties do not generate revenues sufficient to meet our operating expenses, including debt service and capital expenditures, our cash flow and ability to pay distributions to you will be adversely affected.  The following factors, among others, may adversely affect the income generated by our properties:
 
downturns in the national, regional and local economic climate;
competition from other retail properties and other retail channels;
local real estate market conditions, such as oversupply or reduction in demand for retail properties;
changes in interest rates and availability of financing;
vacancies, changes in market rental rates and the need to periodically repair, renovate and re-lease space;
increased operating costs, including, but not limited to, insurance expense, utilities, real estate taxes, state and local taxes, and heightened security costs;
decreased tenant recovery income as a result of decreased occupancy;
civil disturbances, natural disasters, or terrorist acts or acts of war which may result in uninsured or underinsured losses; and
declines in the financial condition of our tenants and our ability to collect rents from our tenants.
 
Our retail tenants face competition from numerous retail channels, which may reduce our profitability and ability to pay distributions. Retailers at our properties face continued competition from discount or value retailers, factory outlet centers, wholesale clubs, mail order catalogs and operators, television shopping networks and Internet shopping. Such competition could adversely affect our tenants and, consequently, our revenues and funds available for distribution.

Tenants may vacate spaces at the end of their leases or in breach of their leases, fail to pay their rent, declare bankruptcy or seek to restructure their leases.  We derive substantially all of our revenue from leasing space at our investment properties.  Thus, our results may be negatively affected by the failure of tenants to pay rent when due.  We may experience substantial delays and expense enforcing rights against tenants who do not pay their rent or who seek the protection of the bankruptcy laws. Even if a tenant does not seek the protection of the bankruptcy laws, the tenant may from time to time experience a downturn in its business which may weaken its financial condition and its ability to make rental payments when due, leading the tenant to seek revisions to its leases.

Loss of revenues from significant tenants could reduce distributions to preferred and common stockholders and have a material adverse effect on our business. We derive significant revenues from anchor tenants such as Safeway, Roundy's and TJX Companies, Inc., which are the three largest anchor tenants in our consolidated portfolio and accounted for 3.9%, 3.3% and 3.2%, respectively of our consolidated annualized base rent for the year ended December 31, 2013. Vacated anchor space can reduce rental revenues generated by other spaces in the shopping center because of the loss of the departed anchor tenant's customer drawing power. Certain anchors have the right to vacate but continue to pay rent for the balance of the term, which could hinder our efforts to re-tenant that space. If a significant tenant vacates a property, then other tenants at the property may be entitled to terminate their leases or reduce the amount of their rental obligations. The loss of a significant number of the locations of these anchor tenants, or the inability of them to pay rent, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Distributions to stockholders could be adversely affected by the loss of revenues in the event a tenant becomes bankrupt or insolvent; experiences a downturn in its business; materially defaults on its leases; does not renew its leases as they expire; or renews at lower rental rates.

Table of Contents

Leases on approximately 5% of total leased square feet in our consolidated portfolio and approximately 3% in our unconsolidated portfolio expire during 2014.  As leases expire, we may not be able to renew or re-lease space at rates comparable to, or better than, the rates contained in the expiring leases, or at all.  Leases on approximately 591,000 square feet, or approximately 5% of total leasable square feet of approximately 10,846,000 in our consolidated portfolio, will expire prior to December 31, 2014.  Leases on approximately 110,000 square feet, or approximately 3% of total leasable square feet of approximately 4,066,000 in our unconsolidated portfolio, will expire prior to December 31, 2014.  If we fail to renew or re-lease space at rates that are at least comparable to the rates on expiring leases, revenues at the impacted properties will decline.  Further, we may have to spend significant sums of money to renew or re-lease space covered by expiring leases.
 
We compete with numerous other parties or entities for real estate and tenants.  We compete with numerous other persons or entities seeking to buy real estate assets, or to attract tenants to properties we already own, including REITs or other real estate operating companies.  These persons or entities may have greater experience and financial strength.  There is no assurance that we will be able to acquire additional real estate assets or attract tenants on favorable terms, if at all.  For example, our competitors may be willing to purchase properties at prices that result in yields below what we believe is our minimum required yield or may offer space at properties that compete with ours at rental rates below our existing rates, causing us to lose existing or potential tenants and pressuring us to reduce our rental rates to retain existing tenants or convince new tenants to lease space at our properties.
 
Property taxes may increase.  We are required to pay taxes based on the assessed value of our investment properties determined by various taxing authorities such as state or local governments.  These taxing authorities may increase the tax rate imposed on a property or may reassess property value, either of which would increase the amount of taxes due on that property.
 
We face risks associated with property acquisitions.  Our acquisition activities and their success are subject to the following risks:
 
we may be unable to obtain financing for acquisitions on favorable terms or at all;
acquired properties may fail to perform as expected;
the actual costs of repositioning and redeveloping acquired properties may be higher than our estimates;
we are seeking to expand our market area and may acquire properties in areas where we do not have substantial experience in, or knowledge of, the market and may lack business relationships and may be unfamiliar with local governmental and permitting procedures; and
we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations.
 
Properties that we acquire may be subject to unknown liabilities that affect the value and profitability of these properties. Properties that we own or may acquire may be subject to existing liabilities that are unknown at the time we acquire such properties, which could affect the value of and revenue generated by the property. Unknown liabilities might include:
 
liabilities for cleanup or remediation of undisclosed environmental conditions;
claims of tenants, vendors or other persons dealing with the entities prior to our acquisition of such properties (that had not been asserted or threatened prior to our acquisition; and
liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business.
 
We may not be able to quickly vary our portfolio.  Investments in real estate are relatively illiquid and generally cannot be disposed of quickly. In addition, the federal tax code restricts REIT's ability to dispose of properties that are not applicable to other types of real estate companies. Therefore, we may not be able to vary our portfolio in response to economic or other conditions promptly or on terms favorable to us within a time frame that we would need to avoid losses in the value of properties in our portfolio.
 
Market disruptions may adversely affect the value of our investment properties.  Market volatility has exerted, and may in the future exert downward pressure on the value of certain of our investment properties and our unconsolidated joint ventures.  For example, during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, we recorded approximately $5,748, $722 and $2,841, respectively of impairment charges related to certain consolidated properties.  The impairment charges were required because we determined that the carrying value of the properties were higher than their fair values and required adjustment.  Similarly,

Table of Contents

during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2011, we recorded approximately $692 and $7,824, respectively (amounts equal to our pro rata share of impairment charges on certain unconsolidated development joint venture projects) to reflect the properties at fair value and we recorded approximately $10,468 and $5,223, respectively in impairment losses to record our investment in certain unconsolidated joint ventures at their fair values. No impairment adjustments to unconsolidated investments or unconsolidated joint venture properties were recorded or required during the year ended December 31, 2012. There is no assurance we will be able to recover any of these charges upon sales of the impacted properties.

Investment Risks
 
Indebtedness that we incur may adversely impact our liquidity and operating flexibility and may impact our ability to pay dividends on our preferred stock and distributions on our common stock.  As of December 31, 2013, we had approximately $849,024 in face value of indebtedness, $494,809 of which was secured by mortgages on certain of our investment properties. We may incur additional indebtedness and become more highly leveraged, which could further adversely impact our financial position and operating flexibility and limit our cash available to pay dividends or make distributions. As a result, we may not have sufficient funds remaining to pay dividends or make distributions on our preferred and common stock.  Increases in our borrowing and the resulting increase in our leverage could affect our financial condition and make it more difficult for us to comply with our financial covenants governing our indebtedness.

If we pay distributions that exceed our cash flow from operations, we will have less funds available for other purposes and the amount of distributions may not be sustainable.  For the year ended December 31, 2013, we paid distributions totaling approximately $8,937 and $54,011 to our preferred and common stockholders, respectively.  Our net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $69,006. For the year ended December 31, 2012, we paid distributions totaling approximately $7,719 and $50,815 to our preferred and common stockholders, respectively.  Our net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $68,955.  To the extent that net cash provided by operating activities declines we may be forced to consider reducing our distributions or the amount that we pay in cash in order to preserve a cushion between the amount of cash distributions paid and net cash provided by operating activities.  To the extent that we pay cash distributions exceeding net cash provided by operating activities, the amount of our distribution payments may not be sustainable or we may use funds generated by financing or investing activities which could further reduce the amount of cash available for other purposes including acquiring new investment properties, funding capital expenditures on existing investment properties, funding cash requirements for our various joint ventures or repaying debt.  If these other requirements cannot be reduced, we will likely be forced to reduce the amount of our cash distributions.
 
We have changed the amount of our distributions in the past and may change our distribution policy in the future.  Recognizing the need to maintain maximum financial flexibility in light of the state of the capital markets, in 2009 we reduced the amount we paid monthly in distributions to $0.0475 per common share.  We have continued to pay this amount monthly and we currently expect to continue to pay monthly cash distributions at this rate in 2014, but we may change our distribution policy again at any time in the future.
 
The decision to declare and pay distributions on our common stock in the future, as well as the timing, amount and composition of any future distributions, will depend on our earnings, cash flows from operations, funds from operations, liquidity, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual prohibitions or other limitations under our indebtedness, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, state law and any other factors we deem relevant. Any change in our distribution policy or the amount of distributions we pay to common stockholders could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our preferred and common stock.
 
Our shareholders have experienced dilution as a result of our stock offerings and they may experience further dilution if we issue additional stock.  The issuance of additional shares of our common or preferred stock may have a dilutive effect on our earnings and funds from operations per share and will reduce the percentage of that class of stock outstanding owned by investors who do not participate in these issuances.  Shareholders are not entitled to vote on whether or not we issue additional stock already authorized for issuance.  In addition, depending on the terms and pricing of future issuances of our stock and the value of our properties, our existing shareholders may experience dilution in the value of their shares.
 
Changes in market conditions could adversely affect the market price of our preferred and common stock.  The trading price of our shares of preferred or common stock, like other publicly traded equity securities, depends on various market conditions that may change from time to time.  Among the market conditions that could affect the market price of our preferred and common stock are the following:
 

9

Table of Contents

the extent of investor interest in our securities;
the general reputation of real estate investment trusts and the attractiveness of our equity securities in comparison to other equity securities, including securities issued by other real estate based companies;
material economic concerns;
changes in tax laws;
our financial performance; and
general stock and bond market conditions.

Our common stock may trade at prices that are higher or lower than our net asset value per share of common stock.  If, among other things, our future earnings or cash distributions are less than expected, it is likely that the market price of our preferred and common stock will decline.
 
Our objectives may conflict with those of our joint venture partners.  We own certain of our investment properties, through joint ventures with third parties.  In some cases, we control the joint venture and in some cases we are a minority partner.  Investments in joint ventures involve risks that are not otherwise present with properties which we own entirely.  For example, a joint venture partner may file for bankruptcy protection or may have economic or business interests or goals which are inconsistent with our goals or interests.  Further, although we may own a controlling interest in a joint venture and may have authority over major decisions such as the sale or refinancing of investment properties, we may have fiduciary duties to the joint venture partners or the joint venture itself that may cause, or require, us to take or refrain from taking actions that we would otherwise take if we owned the investment properties outright.  Certain joint venture commitments require us to invest cash in non-operating property under development and in properties that do not necessarily meet our investment criteria but which are offered for syndication through our joint venture with IPCC.  In some cases, capital has been committed for periods longer than expected, for example, when development or syndication takes longer than anticipated thus impacting our liquidity and capital resources.

Loss of our key personnel could adversely affect the value of our common shares and operations. We are dependent on the efforts of our key executive personnel. Although we believe qualified replacements could be found for these key executives, the loss of their services could adversely affect the value of our common shares and operations.

We have a high concentration of properties in the Chicago and the Minneapolis-St. Paul MSA's, and adverse economic and other developments in that area could have a material adverse effect on us. As of December 31, 2013, approximately fifty-nine percent of our total retail portfolio (consolidated plus unconsolidated) GLA was located in the Chicago, Illinois MSA, with our second largest market concentration being approximately seventeen percent in the Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota MSA. As a result, we are particularly susceptible to adverse economic and other developments in these areas, including increased unemployment, industry slowdowns, business layoffs or downsizing, relocations of businesses, decreased consumer confidence, changes in demographics, increases in real estate and other taxes, increased regulation, and natural disasters, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
 
Certain provisions of Maryland law or our charter or bylaws or opposition from large stockholders could delay, defer or prevent a takeover or change in our control that would be beneficial our stockholders. Certain provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law, or MGCL, may have the effect of inhibiting a third party from making a proposal to acquire us or of impeding a change of control.  Such an acquisition or change of control could provide you with the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market price of your shares.  In some cases, such provisions may have the effect of permitting us and our board of directors to negotiate a change-in-control transaction on terms most favorable to us and our stockholders, but in other cases they may have the effect of delaying such a transaction or preventing it from happening at all.  These MGCL provisions include:
“business combination” provisions that, subject to limitations, prohibit certain business combinations between us and an “interested stockholder” for certain periods. An “interested stockholder” is generally any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of our shares or an affiliate or associate of ours who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the voting power of our then outstanding voting stock. A person is not an interested stockholder under the statute if our board of directors approved in advance the transaction by which he otherwise would have become an interested stockholder. Business combinations with an interested stockholder are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the

10

Table of Contents

stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. After that period, the MGCL imposes two super-majority voting requirements on such combinations, and
“control share” provisions that provide that “control shares” of our company acquired in a “control share acquisition” have no voting rights unless holders of two-thirds of our voting stock (excluding interested shares) consent. “Control shares” are shares that, when aggregated with other shares controlled by the stockholder, entitle the stockholder to exercise one of three increasing ranges of voting power in electing directors. A “control share acquisition” is the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of “control shares” from a party other than the issuer.

We have opted out of the control share provisions of the MGCL by means of a provision in our bylaws.  However, we may opt in to the control share provisions of the MGCL in the future by amending our bylaws, which our board of directors can do without stockholder approval.

Our charter and bylaws contain provisions that also may delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be beneficial stockholders.  In an effort to protect our ability to qualify as a REIT, our charter generally provides that no single person or group of persons (an entity is considered a person) may own more than 9.8% of our outstanding shares of common stock (unless permitted by the board).  Although the board may waive the application of these provisions to certain persons, they are not obligated to do so.  This 9.8% ownership limit and other provisions of our charter and bylaws may prevent or discourage a third party from making a tender offer or other business combination proposal such as a merger that might have been beneficial to our stockholders.

Daniel L. Goodwin is one of our directors and beneficially owns a significant amount of our common stock both individually and through The Inland Group, Inc. (“The Inland Group”).  Mr. Goodwin is one of the founders of The Inland Group and owns a controlling interest in that entity.  The Company has engaged and may continue to engage in certain transactions with affiliates of The Inland Group.  See the “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” section in the Company’s annual meeting proxy statement and Note 7, “Transactions with Related Parties” to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for details regarding certain of these transactions.  Without the support of the Company’s significant stockholders such as Mr. Goodwin and The Inland Group, change of control transactions, such as mergers, sales of assets and business combinations that could give stockholders the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market prices for common shares may be more difficult to consummate, and this difficulty may discourage third parties from approaching the Company to propose such transactions.  The interests of the Company’s significant stockholders may differ from the interests of other stockholders, and those significant stockholders may vote their shares accordingly. 

Financing Risks
 
We often need to borrow money to finance our business.  Our ability to internally fund operating or capital needs is limited since we must distribute at least 90% of our taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, to stockholders to qualify as a REIT.  Consequently, we may have to borrow money to fund operating or capital needs or to satisfy the distribution requirements, imposed by the Code, to maintain status as a REIT.  Borrowing money exposes us to various risks.  For example, our investment properties may not generate enough cash to pay the principal and interest obligations on loans or we may violate a loan covenant that results in the lender accelerating the maturity date of a loan.  As of December 31, 2013, our borrowings totaled approximately $849,024 in face value of consolidated debt.  Approximately $494,809 of this debt is secured by mortgages on certain of our investment properties and is non-recourse to us.  The remaining $354,215 is comprised of unsecured debt reflecting draws on our line of credit facility and borrowings under our term loans and the face value of our convertible notes.
 
If we fail to make timely payments on our debt, including those cases where a lender has accelerated the maturity date due to a violation of a loan covenant, the lenders could foreclose on the investment properties securing the loan and we could lose our entire investment on any foreclosed properties.  Once a loan becomes due, we must either pay the remaining balance or borrow additional money to pay off the maturing loan.  We may not, however, be able to obtain a new loan, or the terms of the new loan, such as the interest rate or payment schedule, may not be as favorable as the terms of the maturing loan.  Thus, we may be forced to sell a property at an unfavorable price to pay off the maturing loan or agree to less favorable loan terms.  In addition, we may have limited availability under our line of credit facility which may reduce our ability to borrow funds.
 
A total of approximately $168,360 and $37,849 of our indebtedness, including required monthly principal amortization, matures on or before December 31, 2014 and 2015, respectively.  We intend to repay this debt using available cash, by borrowing amounts under our unsecured line of credit facility or by refinancing the maturing debt, or some combination of all these. There is no assurance we will be able to do so and we may incur significantly higher borrowing costs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Included in the debt maturing in 2014 are

11

Table of Contents

two mortgage loans, with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of approximately $90,247, secured by Algonquin Commons. Subject to an outstanding $18,600 payment guaranty on the principal amount of the second phase of the property and carve-out guarantees, these mortgage loans are otherwise generally non-recourse.

As of December 31, 2013, we owed approximately $366,200, or 43% of total outstanding debt, on indebtedness that bore interest at variable rates with a weighted average of 2.13% per annum.  These rates are reset each month.  A 1.0% annualized increase in these variable rates would have increased our interest expense by approximately $3,662 for the year ended December 31, 2013.  We may borrow additional amounts that bear interest at variable rates.  If interest rates increase, the amount of interest that we would be required to pay on these borrowings will also increase.  Additionally, if lending requirements become stricter, we may find it difficult to encumber properties with terms similar to our current loan terms.  This could result in a decrease in the number of properties we are able to purchase or principal and/or interest payments higher than recent historical levels.  Higher interest payments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and would result in a decrease in the amount of cash available for distribution to holders of our common stock.
 
Our degree of leverage could limit our ability to obtain additional financing, negatively affect the market price of our common stock and reduce cash available for distributions and other uses.  As of December 31, 2013, we had approximately $849,024 in total face value of indebtedness outstanding on a consolidated basis (excluding unconsolidated joint venture debt).  Additionally, there was a total face value of approximately $317,025 of outstanding debt incurred by our unconsolidated joint ventures, of which our pro rata share was approximately $170,089. Debt to total market capitalization ratio, which measures total debt as a percentage of the aggregate of total debt plus the market value of outstanding equity securities, is often used by analysts to gauge leverage for a REIT.  Our debt to total market capitalization ratio was approximately 42.3%, excluding unconsolidated joint venture debt, and 46.8%, including our pro rata share of unconsolidated joint venture debt, as of December 31, 2013.  This ratio will increase with declines in our stock price, which closed at $10.52 on December 31, 2013, or with increases in our borrowing, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our stock.  In addition, our degree of leverage could affect our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, development or other general corporate purposes.  Our degree of leverage could also make us more vulnerable to a downturn in business or the economy generally.  In addition, a greater amount of debt relative to our peer group could have a negative effect on our stock price.
 
Covenants in our debt agreements could adversely affect our financial condition.  The mortgages on our properties contain customary covenants such as those that limit our ability, without the prior consent of the lender, to borrow additional monies secured by the property or to discontinue insurance coverage, among other things.  Covenants on our unsecured line of credit facility also limit our ability to incur indebtedness above certain levels and require us to satisfy certain conditions before borrowing, such as maintaining certain total debt to asset ratios, secured debt to total asset ratios, debt service coverage ratios and minimum ratios of unencumbered assets to unsecured debt, among others.  If we breach covenants in our debt agreements, the lenders can declare a default and, if the debt is secured, can take possession of the property securing the defaulted loan unless we are able to repay the loan.  Failure to comply with these covenants could cause a default under the applicable debt agreement, and we may then be required to repay this debt.  Under those circumstances, we may not have sufficient resources to repay this debt.
 
To hedge against interest rate fluctuations, we may use derivative financial instruments that may be costly and ineffective and may reduce the overall returns on your investment.  From time to time we have used, and may in the future use, derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates on loans secured by our assets.  Derivative instruments may include interest rate swap contracts, interest rate cap or floor contracts, futures or forward contracts, options or repurchase agreements.  Our actual hedging decisions will be determined in light of the facts and circumstances existing at the time of the hedge and may differ from our currently anticipated hedging strategy.

To the extent that we use derivative financial instruments to hedge against interest rate fluctuations, we will be exposed to credit risk, basis risk and legal enforceability risks.  In this context, credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract.  If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes us, which creates credit risk for us.  Basis risk occurs when the index upon which the contract is based is more or less variable than the index upon which the hedged asset or liability is based, thereby making the hedge less effective.   Finally, legal enforceability risks encompass general contractual risks including the risk that the counterparty will breach the terms of, or fail to perform its obligations under, the derivative contract.  We do not believe the risk of counterparty nonperformance is material due to the current economic conditions.

A Company subsidiary stopped making payments on the debt encumbering Algonquin Commons and is defending a resulting lawsuit that seeks, among other things, to enforce its partial guarantee of the loan; if the Company subsidiary is required to perform under the partial guarantee, paying the guarantee could have a material adverse effect on our cash flows and results of operations for the period and the year in which the payment would be made.  In June 2012, a Company subsidiary ceased paying the monthly debt service on the two mortgage loans secured by both phases of the investment property known as Algonquin Commons, which is owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, because the property was not generating sufficient cash flow to resume paying both principal and interest payments on the outstanding debt.  The total outstanding principal balance of the debt on both phases of the property is $90,247, of which $71,647 is non-recourse and approximately $18,600, for which the payment guarantee is additional collateral, has been guaranteed by the Company subsidiary.  In January 2013, the Company subsidiary received notice that a complaint had been filed by the purported successor to the lender alleging events of default under the loan documents and seeking to foreclose on the property. Effective February 28, 2013, the court granted a motion of the plaintiff and appointed a receiver for the property. As a result, the receiver and its affiliated management company are managing and operating Algonquin Commons and are 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. Although the Company subsidiary believes the payment guaranty was terminated and is of no further force and effect, if the Company subsidiary is required to fulfill its obligations under its partial guarantee of the loan, we believe that paying the guarantee could have a material adverse effect on cash flows and results of operations for the period and the year in which the payment would be made. 

Federal Income Tax Risks
 
If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, our operations and distributions to stockholders will be adversely affected.  We intend to operate so as to continue qualifying as a REIT under the Code. A REIT generally is not taxed at the corporate level on income it currently distributes to its stockholders. Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex rules for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances is not entirely within our control and may affect our ability to qualify, or continue to qualify, as a REIT. New legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions could significantly change the tax laws with respect to qualifying as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of qualification.
 
We may fail to qualify as a REIT if, among other things:
 
less than 75% of the value of our total assets consists of cash and cash items (including receivables), real estate assets (including mortgages and interests in mortgages) and government securities at the close of each fiscal quarter;
securities of any one issuer (other than permitted securities, such as government securities or mortgages) represent more than 5% of the value of our total assets; however, up to 25% of the value of our total assets may be represented by securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries;
we own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer or more than 10% of the value of the outstanding securities of a single issuer other than certain permitted securities, such as government securities or mortgages, and securities in a taxable REIT subsidiary;
less than 75% of our gross income (excluding income from prohibited transactions) is derived from real estate sources.  These sources include mortgage interest, rents from real property, amounts received as consideration to enter into real estate leases or to make a loan secured by a mortgage and gains from the sale of real estate assets;
less than 95% of our gross income is derived from the income items included in the 75% test and also includes interest income, dividend income and gains from the sale of securities; or
we fail to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, to stockholders.
 
If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year and were not entitled to relief under the Code:
 
we would not be allowed to deduct dividends paid to stockholders when computing our taxable income;
we would be subject to federal (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and state income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates;
we would be disqualified from being taxed as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which we failed to qualify, unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions;

13

Table of Contents

we would have less cash to pay distributions to stockholders; and
we may be required to borrow additional funds or sell some of our assets in order to pay corporate tax obligations we may incur as a result of being disqualified.

We face possible adverse changes in tax laws.  From time to time, changes in federal, state and local tax laws or regulations are enacted, which may result in an increase in our tax liability.  The shortfall in tax revenues at the federal, state and municipal government levels in recent years may lead to an increase in the frequency and size of these changes.  If these changes occur, we may be required to pay additional taxes on our income, property or net worth and may be assessed interest and penalties on such additional taxes.
 
In certain circumstances, we may be subject to federal and state income taxes as a REIT, which would reduce our cash available to pay distributions.  Even if we maintain our status as a REIT, we may become subject to federal income taxes and related state taxes. For example, if we have net income from a “prohibited transaction,” we will incur taxes equal to the full amount of the income from the prohibited transaction. We may not be able to make sufficient distributions to avoid excise taxes applicable to REITs. We also may decide to retain income we earn from the sale or other disposition of our property and pay income tax directly on this income. In that event, our stockholders would be treated as if they earned that income and paid the tax on it directly. However, stockholders that are tax-exempt, such as charities or qualified pension plans, would have to file income tax returns to receive a refund of the income tax paid on their behalf. We also may be subject to state and local taxes on our income, property or net worth, either directly or at the level of the other companies through which we indirectly own our assets. Any federal or state taxes paid by us will reduce our cash available to pay distributions.
 
Distributions to tax-exempt investors may be classified as unrelated business tax income.   The Code may classify distributions paid to a tax-exempt investor as unrelated business tax income, or UBTI, if the investor borrows money to purchase our shares.
 
In order to maintain our REIT status, we may be forced to borrow funds during unfavorable market conditions.  In order to maintain our REIT status, we may need to borrow funds on a short-term basis to meet the real estate investment trust distribution requirements, even if the then prevailing market conditions are not favorable for these borrowings.  To qualify as a REIT, we generally must distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, each year.  In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which distributions paid by us in any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of our ordinary income, 95% of our capital gain net income and 100% of our undistributed income from prior years.  We may need short-term debt or long-term debt, proceeds from asset sales, creation of joint ventures or sale of common stock to fund required distributions as a result of differences in timing between the actual receipt of income and the recognition of income for federal income tax purposes, or the effect of non-deductible capital expenditures, the creation of reserves or required debt or amortization payments.
 
Recent tax-rate changes could reduce after-tax returns for holders of our common and preferred stock. The maximum rates on ordinary dividend income and long-term capital gains received after December 31, 2012, by individuals, estates, and trusts increased from 35% and 15%, respectively, to 39.6% and 20%, respectively. In addition, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, certain U.S. holders who are individuals, estates or trusts and whose income exceeds certain thresholds will be required to pay a 3.8% Medicare tax on dividends and certain other investment income, including capital gains from the sale or other disposition of our common and preferred stock.

Insurance Risks
 
Some potential losses are not covered by insurance.  We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market in general, and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism in particular, but we cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in future policy years.  There are other types of losses, such as from wars, acts of nuclear, biological or chemical terrorism or the presence of mold at our properties, for which we cannot obtain insurance at all or at a reasonable cost.  With respect to these losses and losses from acts of terrorism, earthquakes or other catastrophic events, if we experience a loss that is uninsured or that exceeds policy limits, we could lose the capital invested in the damaged properties, as well as the anticipated future revenues from those properties.

Potential liability for environmental contamination could result in substantial costs.  Under federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, we may be required to investigate and clean up the effects of releases of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products at our properties simply because of our current or past ownership or operation of our real estate.  If environmental problems arise, we may have to make substantial payments because:

14

Table of Contents

 
as owner or operator we may have to pay for property damage and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred in connection with the contamination;
the law typically imposes clean up responsibility and liability regardless of whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the contamination;
even if more than one person may be responsible for the contamination, each person who shares legal liability under the environmental laws may be held responsible for all of the cleanup costs; and
governmental entities and third parties may sue the owner or operator of a contaminated site for damages and costs.
 
These costs could be substantial and in extreme cases could exceed the value of the contaminated property.  The presence of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products or the failure to properly remediate contamination may materially and adversely affect our ability to borrow against, sell or rent an affected property.
 
In addition, applicable environmental laws create liens on contaminated sites in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs in connection with a contamination.  Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing at our properties, or increasing the restrictions on the handling, storage or discharge of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products or other actions, may result in significant unanticipated expenditures.
 
Environmental laws also govern the presence, maintenance and removal of asbestos.  These laws require that owners or operators of buildings containing asbestos:
 
properly manage and maintain the asbestos;
notify and train those who may come into contact with asbestos; and
undertake special precautions, including removal or other abatement, if asbestos would be disturbed during renovation or demolition of a building.
 
These laws may impose fines and penalties on building owners or operators who fail to comply with these requirements and may allow third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators for personal injury associated with exposure to asbestos fibers.
 
Some of our properties are located in urban, industrial and previously developed areas where fill or current or historic industrial uses of the areas have caused site contamination.  It is our policy to retain independent environmental consultants to conduct Phase I environmental site assessments and asbestos surveys for each property we seek to acquire.  These assessments generally include a visual inspection of the properties and the surrounding areas, an examination of current and historical uses of the properties and the surrounding areas and a review of relevant state, federal and historical documents, but do not involve invasive techniques such as soil and ground water sampling.  Where appropriate, on a property-by-property basis, our practice is to have these consultants conduct additional testing, including sampling for asbestos, for lead in drinking water, for soil contamination where underground storage tanks are or were located or where other past site usage create a potential environmental problem, and for contamination in groundwater.  Even though these environmental assessments are conducted, there is still the risk that:
 
the environmental assessments and updates did not identify all potential environmental liabilities;
a prior owner created a material environmental condition that is not known to us or the independent consultants preparing the assessments;
new environmental liabilities have developed since the environmental assessments were conducted; and
future uses or conditions such as changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations could result in environmental liability for us.
 
Inquiries about indoor air quality may necessitate special investigation and, depending on the results, remediation beyond our regular indoor air quality testing and maintenance programs.  Indoor air quality issues can stem from inadequate ventilation, chemical contaminants from indoor or outdoor sources, and biological contaminants such as molds, pollen, viruses and bacteria.  Indoor exposure to chemical or biological contaminants above certain levels can be alleged to be connected to allergic reactions or other health effects and symptoms in susceptible individuals.  If these conditions were to occur at one of our

15

Table of Contents

properties, we may need to undertake a targeted remediation program, including without limitation, steps to increase indoor ventilation rates and eliminate sources of contaminants.  These remediation programs could be costly, necessitate the temporary relocation of some or all of the property’s tenants or require rehabilitation of the affected property.
 
Compliance or failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act or other safety regulations and requirements could result in substantial costs.  The Americans with Disabilities Act generally requires that public buildings, including shopping centers, be made accessible to disabled persons.  Noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines by the federal government or the award of damages to private litigants.  We may be required to invest substantial amounts of capital to make, among other things, substantial alterations in one or more of our properties, including the removal of access barriers, to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
 
Our properties are also subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as state and local fire and life safety requirements.  If we fail to comply with these requirements, we could incur fines or private damage awards.  We do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether compliance with future requirements will require significant unanticipated expenditures.

We face risks relating to cybersecurity attacks, loss of confidential information and other business disruptions. Our business is at risk from and may be impacted by cybersecurity attacks, including attempts to gain unauthorized access to our confidential data and other electronic security breaches. Such cyber attacks can range from individual attempts to gain unauthorized access to our information technology systems to more sophisticated security threats. There is no guarantee that our efforts to prevent, detect and mitigate these threats, including password protection, backup servers and periodic testing, will be successful in preventing a cyber attack. Cybersecurity incidents could compromise the confidential information of our tenants, employees and third party vendors and disrupt and effect the efficiency of our business operations.

As of December 31, 2013, we owned fee simple interests in 29 investment properties through our unconsolidated joint ventures and we owned DST interests in the 23 properties owned through our IPCC joint venture.

_____________________________________
(1)
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.
(2)
Average rent per square foot is calculated on leases in place as of report date.
(3)
Anchor tenants are defined as any tenant occupying 10,000 or more square feet. The trade name used in this table may be different than the tenant name on the lease.
(4)
Tenant has vacated their space but is still contractually obligated under their lease to pay rent.
(5)
Beginning with the earlier date listed, pursuant to the terms of the lease, the tenant has a right to terminate prior to the lease expiration date.
(6)
Ground lease tenants, ground lease square footage is excluded from GLA as we do not own that square footage.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings
 
Our wholly-owned subsidiary IN Retail Fund Algonquin Commons, L.L.C which owns the property commonly known as Algonquin Commons, ceased paying the monthly debt service on the two mortgage loans secured by the property in June 2012. Our subsidiary 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. The property had not been generating sufficient cash flow to pay both principal and interest on the outstanding mortgage indebtedness due to vacancies and certain co-tenancy lease provisions that allowed some tenants to reduce their monthly rent obligations.
 
The Algonquin Commons property is encumbered by two mortgage loans in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $90,247. As of the date of this report, the amount in arrears, equal to unpaid principal and interest is approximately $10,600. In connection with the now Company subsidiary's acquisition of the property, the Company subsidiary assumed a guarantee on the second phase of the property, of approximately $18,600 at December 31, 2012, of the total mortgage indebtedness (the “Payment Guaranty”). The Company subsidiary believes the Payment Guaranty has, however, ceased and is of no further force and effect as a result of the property having met the performance metrics set forth in the Payment Guaranty. We believe that the total indebtedness of $90,247 is otherwise non-recourse, subject to certain non-recourse carve-out guarantees.

On January 11, 2013, the Company subsidiary received notice that a complaint had been filed in the Circuit Court of the Sixteenth Judicial District, Kane County, Illinois (Case #13CH12) by U.S. Bank National Association, as successor trustee for the registered holders of TIAA Seasoned Commercial Mortgage Trust 2007-C4, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2007-C4 regarding Algonquin Commons, alleging events of default under the loan documents and seeking to foreclose on the property. The complaint also seeks to enforce the Payment Guaranty and two non-recourse carve-out guarantees in an unspecified amount to be determined by the court.

In connection with the complaint, the plaintiff filed a motion for appointment of a receiver and the court granted the motion and issued an order effective February 28, 2013, appointing a receiver for the property. As a result, the receiver and its affiliated management company are now managing and operating Algonquin Commons and are collecting all rents for the property. Since the Company subsidiary still holds title to the property, all income and expenses of the property remain consolidated on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

We cannot currently estimate the impact this 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 that if the Company subsidiary is required to pay the full amount outstanding under the Payment Guaranty or a foreclosure occurs, there could be a material adverse effect on our cash flows and results of operations for the period and the year in which it occurs. We believe these events would not have a material effect on our consolidated balance sheets because there would be a corresponding reduction in both the assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Even if we have to make payment under the Payment Guaranty, we believe that the effect of a foreclosure of the property and release of the corresponding debt on our consolidated balance sheets will result in an improvement in certain financial ratios, and the collective effect of the payment, foreclosure and release will be neutral to Funds From Operations ("FFO").

Distributions
 
For federal income tax purposes, distributions may consist of ordinary dividend income, non-taxable return of capital, capital gains or a combination thereof.  Distributions to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes are taxable to the recipient as either ordinary dividend income or capital gain distributions.  Distributions in excess of these earnings and profits (calculated for income tax purposes) constitute a non-taxable return of capital rather than ordinary dividend income or a capital gain distribution and reduce the recipient’s basis in the shares to the extent thereof. Distributions in excess of earnings and profits that reduce a recipient’s basis in the shares have the effect of deferring taxation of the amount of the distribution until the sale of the stockholder’s shares. If the recipient's basis is reduced to zero, distributions in excess of the aforementioned earnings and profits (calculated for income tax purposes) constitute taxable gain.
 
In order to maintain our status as a REIT, we must distribute at least 90% of our taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, to our stockholders.  For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, our taxable income was $48,257 and $61,378, respectively.  Holders of our Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Board of Directors, cumulative preferential cash distributions based on the stated rate and liquidation preference per annum.  We declared monthly distributions on our Preferred Stock totaling $8,949 and $7,910, or $2.03 on an annual basis per share for the years ended

Under the terms of our Unsecured Loan Agreement dated as of November 15, 2011, our First Amendment to Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of August 23, 2013 and our First Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement dated August 23, 2013, we may not declare or pay dividends or make distributions (including dividends paid and distributions actually made with respect to gains on property sales and any preferred dividends or distributions) if such dividends and distributions paid on account of the then-current fiscal quarter and the three immediately preceding fiscal quarters, in the aggregate for such period, would exceed (A) 95% of FFO (as adjusted to exclude deductions or increases due to one-time items, including non-cash charges and impairments) for such period plus (B) without duplication, all gains on property sales for such period to the extent distributions were actually made with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we are permitted at all times to distribute whatever amount is necessary to maintain our tax status as a real estate investment trust. In addition to the limitations on distributions in the agreements that govern our indebtedness, distributions cannot be paid on our common stock unless we have paid full cumulative dividends through the current period on our Series A Preferred Stock.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Certain statements in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (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 “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 this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 28, 2014 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.
 

Executive Summary
 
2013 Highlights
Funds From Operations ("FFO") per share, adjusted increased 12.5% over calendar year 2012.
Same store net operating income ("NOI") increased 3.3% over year-end 2012.
Consolidated portfolio financial occupancy increased 210 basis points over year-end 2012 and consolidated portfolio leased occupancy increased 250 basis points over the same period.
Average base rents on new leases signed for our consolidated portfolio increased 9.4% over expiring rates during the year ended December 31, 2013 and increased 6.8% on renewal leases.
Improved our EBITDA, adjusted interest expense coverage ratio from 2.8 times to 3.4 times.

2014 Goals and Objectives
Continue to improve our tenant diversification and expand our geographic concentration, with increased footprints in the Central and Southeastern U.S.
Continue to enhance the value of our portfolio through additional repositioning and redevelopment initiatives.
Redeploy capital from dispositions of non-core, limited growth assets into acquisitions of high quality retail assets.
Continue to reduce the cost and extend the term of our debt and reduce our overall leverage over time, which will improve our financial flexibility and liquidity by maintaining access to multiple sources of capital.
As part of our growth strategy, management implemented external growth initiatives consisting of unconsolidated joint venture activities. As a result of these activities being unconsolidated, we are not able to present a complete picture of the impact these ventures have on our consolidated financial statements. We have included pro rata consolidated financial statements in the

31

Table of Contents

Non-GAAP Financial Measures section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K to present our consolidated financial statements including our share of the joint venture balance sheets and statements of operations.

Including the accounts of our unconsolidated joint ventures at 100 percent, we managed approximately $2,879,446 in total assets as of December 31, 2013 and earned $338,952 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 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.

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

Additionally, we have formed a joint venture to acquire properties that are ultimately sold to investors through a private offering of 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 interests have been sold.
 
Operations
 
We actively manage costs to minimize operating expenses by centralizing all management, leasing, marketing, financing, accounting and data processing activities to provide operating efficiencies.  We seek to improve rental income and cash flow by aggressively marketing rentable space.  We emphasize regular maintenance and periodic renovation to meet the needs of tenants and to maximize long-term returns.  We maintain a diversified tenant base consisting primarily of retail tenants providing consumer goods and services.  We proactively review our existing portfolio for potential re-development opportunities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our most liquid asset is cash and cash equivalents that consist of cash and short-term investments.  Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $11,258 and $18,505, respectively.  The higher cash balance at December 31, 2012, reflects sales activity in our joint venture with IPCC at year-end, the proceeds of which were subsequently used to pay down the balance on our unsecured line of credit facility, higher prepaid rents and cash received from the sale of certain investment securities which was not reinvested.  See our discussion of the statements of cash flows for a description of our cash activity during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011.
 
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 December 31, 2013, we were in compliance with all financial covenants applicable to us.  We had up to $85,000 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.

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-K as our "ATM issuance program." During the year ended December 31, 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 year ended December 31, 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.

One of our goals continues to be to enhance the value of our portfolio through additional repositioning and redevelopment initiatives. We currently have several projects underway and others under consideration. During 2013, we invested approximately $27,000 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 2014 using the same sources of cash.

Approximately $168,360 of consolidated debt, including required monthly principal amortization, matures prior to the end of 2014. We intend to repay the remaining maturing debt upon maturity using available cash and/or borrowings under our unsecured line of credit facility. Reference is made to the Total Debt Maturity Schedule in Note 13, “Secured and Unsecured Debt” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our total debt outstanding as of December 31, 2013, which is incorporated into this Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Included in the debt maturing in 2014 is an aggregate of approximately $90,247 of outstanding principal, secured by our Algonquin Commons property, which is subject to an $18,600 Payment Guaranty and carve-out guarantees, but generally is non-recourse to us. Algonquin Commons is currently subject to foreclosure litigation through which the plaintiff is also seeking to enforce the Payment Guaranty. We believe the Payment Guaranty has terminated, but we cannot predict the outcome of the litigation or provide assurance that the Payment Guaranty will not be performed. See Item 3, "Legal Proceedings" above for a more complete discussion of the Algonquin Commons loans and Payment Guaranty and the surrounding litigation.

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 December 31, 2013, PGGM's remaining maximum potential contribution was approximately $67,050 and ours was approximately $81,950.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
General.  A critical accounting policy is one that, we believe, would materially affect our operating results or financial condition, and requires management to make estimates or judgments in certain circumstances.  We believe that our most critical accounting policies relate to the recognition of rental income and tenant recoveries, allocation and valuation of investment properties, and consolidation/equity accounting policies.  These judgments often result from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.  U.S. GAAP requires information in financial statements about accounting principles, methods used and disclosures pertaining to significant estimates.  The following disclosure discusses judgments known to management pertaining to trends, events or uncertainties that were taken into consideration upon the application of critical accounting policies and the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported upon taking into consideration different conditions and assumptions.
 
Recognition of Rental Income and Tenant Recoveries.  Under U.S. GAAP, we are required to recognize rental income based on the effective monthly rent for each lease.  The effective monthly rent is equal to the average monthly rent during the term of the lease, not the stated rent for any particular month.  The process, known as “straight-lining” rent, generally has the effect of increasing rental revenues during the early phases of a lease and decreasing rental revenues in the latter phases of a lease.  If rental income calculated on a straight-line basis exceeds the cash rent due under the lease, the difference is recorded as an increase to both deferred rent receivable and rental income in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  If the cash rent due under the lease exceeds rental income calculated on a straight-line basis, the difference is recorded as a decrease to both deferred rent receivable and rental income in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  We defer recognition of contingent rental income, such as percentage/excess rent, until the specified target that triggers the contingent rental income is achieved.  We periodically review the collectability of outstanding receivables.  Allowances are taken for those balances that we have reason to believe will be uncollectible, including any amounts relating to straight-line rent receivables.  Amounts deemed to be uncollectible are written off.
 
Tenant recoveries are primarily comprised of real estate tax and common area maintenance reimbursement income.  Real estate tax income is based on an accrual reimbursement calculated by tenant, based on an estimate of current year real estate taxes.  As actual real estate tax bills are received, we reconcile with our tenants and adjust prior year income estimates in the current period.  Common area maintenance income is accrued on actual common area maintenance expenses as incurred.  Annually, we reconcile with the tenants for their share of the expenses per their lease and we adjust prior year income estimates in the current period.
 
Allocation of Investment Properties.  We allocate the purchase price of each acquired investment property between land, building and improvements, other intangibles (including acquired above market leases, acquired below market leases, customer relationships and acquired in-place leases) and any liabilities assumed, including debt that is recorded at fair value, taking into consideration any above or below market terms.  Purchase price allocations are based on our estimates.  The value allocated to land as opposed to building affects the amount of depreciation expense we record.  If more value is attributed to land, depreciation expense is lower than if more value is attributed to building and improvements.  In some circumstances we engage independent real estate appraisal firms to provide market information and evaluations that are relevant to our purchase price allocations; however, we are ultimately responsible for the purchase price allocation.  We determine whether any financing assumed is above or below market based upon comparison to similar financing terms for similar investment properties.

We expense acquisition costs for investment property acquisitions, accounted for as business combinations, to record the acquisition at its fair value.
 
The aggregate value of other intangibles is measured based on the difference between the purchase price and the property valued as-if-vacant.  We utilize information contained in independent appraisals and management’s estimates to determine the respective as-if-vacant property values.  Factors considered by management in our analysis of determining the as-if-vacant property value include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases and the risk adjusted cost of capital.  In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, up to 24 months.  Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, tenant improvements, legal and other related expenses.  We allocate the difference between the purchase price of the property and the as-if-vacant value first to acquired above and below market leases.  We evaluate each acquired lease based upon current market rates at the acquisition date and consider various factors including geographic location, size and location of leased space within the investment property, tenant profile and the credit risk of the tenant in determining whether the acquired lease is above or below market.  After an acquired lease is determined to be above or below market, we allocate a portion of the purchase price to the acquired above or below market lease based upon the present value of the difference between the contractual lease rate and the estimated market rate.  For below market leases with fixed rate renewals, renewal

periods are included in the calculation of below market lease values and the amortization period.  The determination of the discount rate used in the present value calculation is based upon a rate for each individual lease and primarily based upon the credit worthiness of each individual tenant.  The values of the acquired above and below market leases are amortized over the life of each respective lease as an adjustment to rental income.
 
We then allocate the remaining difference to the value of acquired in-place leases and customer relationships based on management’s evaluation of specific leases and our overall relationship with the respective tenants.  The evaluation of acquired in-place leases consists of a variety of components including the costs avoided associated with originating the acquired in-place lease, including but not limited to, leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs and legal costs.  We also consider the value associated with lost revenue related to tenant reimbursable operating costs and rental income estimated to be incurred during the assumed re-leasing period.  The value of the acquired in-place lease is amortized over the life of the related lease for each property as a component of amortization expense. We also consider whether any customer relationship value exists related to the property acquisition.  As of December 31, 2013, we had not allocated any amounts to customer relationships.
 
The valuation and possible subsequent impairment in the value of our investment properties is a significant estimate that can and does change based on management’s continuous process of analyzing each property.
 
Impairment of investment properties and unconsolidated joint ventures.  We assess the carrying values of our investment properties, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these investment properties may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability of the investment properties is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the investment property to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows.  In order to review our investment properties for recoverability, we consider current market conditions, as well as our intent with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques; including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third party appraisals, where considered necessary. If our analysis indicates that the carrying value of the investment property is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, we recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the current estimated fair value of the real estate property.

We estimate the future undiscounted cash flows based on management’s intent as follows: (i) for real estate properties that we intend to hold long-term, including land held for development, properties currently under development and operating buildings, recoverability is assessed based on the estimated future net rental income from operating the property; (ii) for real estate properties that we intend to sell, including land parcels, properties currently under development and operating buildings, recoverability is assessed based on estimated proceeds from disposition that are estimated based on future net rental income of the property and expected market capitalization rates; and (iii) for costs incurred related to the potential acquisition or development of a real estate property, recoverability is assessed based on the probability that the acquisition or development is likely to occur as of the measurement date.
 
The use of projected future cash flows is based on management’s assumptions of future operations and is consistent with the strategic plan we use to manage our underlying business. However assumptions about and estimates of future cash flows, discount rates and capitalization rates are complex and subjective. Changes in economic and operating conditions and our ultimate investment intent that occur subsequent to our impairment analyses could impact these assumptions and result in future impairment charges of our real estate properties.
 
We also review our investments in unconsolidated entities.  When circumstances indicate there may have been a loss in value of an equity method investment, we evaluate the investment for impairment by estimating our ability to recover our investment from future expected cash flows. If we determine the loss in value is other than temporary, we will recognize an impairment charge to reflect the investment at fair value. The use of projected future cash flows and other estimates of fair value, the determination of when a loss is other than temporary and the calculation of the amount of the loss are complex and subjective processes. Use of other estimates and assumptions may result in different conclusions. Changes in economic and operating conditions that occur subsequent to our review could impact these assumptions and result in future impairment charges of our equity investments.
 
Consolidation/Equity Accounting Policies.  We consolidate the operations of a joint venture if we determine that we are the primary beneficiary of the joint venture, which management has determined to be a variable interest entity ("VIE") in accordance with ASC 810.  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 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 we consolidate a VIE, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the VIE are included in our consolidated financial statements.

In instances where we are not the primary beneficiary of a VIE we use the equity method of accounting.  Under the equity method, the operations of a joint venture that qualifies as a VIE are not consolidated with our operations.  Instead our share of operations is reflected as equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.  Additionally, our net investment in the joint venture is reflected as investment in and advances to joint venture as an asset on the consolidated balance sheets.

2013 Compared to 2012
 
Net cash provided by operating activities was $69,006 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to $68,955 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  See our discussion below under Results of Operations for an explanation related to property operations.
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $115,681 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to $182,635 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The primary reason for the decrease in cash used in investing activities was the use of $191,550 to purchase investment properties and $20,513 in additions to investment properties during the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the use of $242,711 to purchase investment properties and $24,447 in additions to investment properties during the year ended December 31, 2012.  We received $71,599 in proceeds from the sale of property ownership interests in connection with our joint venture with IPCC during the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the receipt of $29,853 from the sale of property ownership interests during the year ended December 31, 2012. This increase was due to the timing of the sale of property ownership interests, which typically vary from period-to-period and year-to-year. Additionally, we received $15,066 in distributions, invested $36,439 in our unconsolidated joint ventures and funded $1,287 of mortgages receivable during the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to receiving $34,942 in distributions, investing $15,364 in our unconsolidated joint ventures and funding $12,955 of mortgages receivable during the year ended December 31, 2012.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $39,428 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to $124,434 during the year ended December 31, 2012.  The primary reason for the decrease in cash received from financing activities was the loan payoffs of $11,726, net of loan proceeds, and $5,000 in proceeds from our amended term loan during the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the receipt of $108,258 in loan proceeds, net of loan payoffs, and $25,000 from our amended term loan, during the year ended December 31, 2012. Partially offsetting this decrease in cash provided by financing activities was the proceeds from the issuance of shares of $104,545 and $15,000 from our unsecured line of credit facility during the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the proceeds of $61,555 from the issuance of shares during the year ended December 31, 2012.
 
2012 Compared to 2011
 
Net cash provided by operating activities was $68,955 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $63,274 for the year ended December 31, 2011.  The increase in cash provided by operating activities is due primarily to an improvement in property operations.  See our discussion below under Results of Operations for an explanation related to property operations.
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $182,635 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $101,851 for the year ended December 31, 2011.  The primary reason for the increase in cash used in investing activities was the use of $242,711 to purchase investment properties and $24,447 in additions to investment properties during the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the use of $125,604 to purchase investment properties and $40,775 in additions to investment properties during the year ended December 31, 2011.  Additionally, we used net cash of $12,955 to fund a construction loan and to purchase notes encumbered by operating properties at a discount and invested an additional $15,364 in our unconsolidated joint ventures to acquire investment properties. We received $29,853 in proceeds from the sale of property ownership interests in connection with our joint venture with IPCC during the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the receipt of $62,929 from the

sale of property ownership interests during the year ended December 31, 2011. This decrease was due to the timing of the sale of property ownership interests, which typically vary from period-to-period and year-to-year. Partially offsetting this increase in cash used in investing activities was the return of capital invested in our unconsolidated joint ventures as financing was placed on certain of the investment properties and cash flow distributions from our joint ventures during the year ended December 31, 2012, and the receipt of $43,596 of sales proceeds from the sale of investment properties during the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $10,796 during the year ended December 31, 2011.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $124,434 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $32,762 during the year ended December 31, 2011.  The primary reason for the increase in cash received from financing activities was the receipt of $108,258 in loan proceeds, net of loan payoffs and $25,000 from our amended term loan during the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the receipt of $26,881 in loan proceeds, net of loan payoffs, $50,000 from the new term loan, $35,000 from our unsecured line of credit facility and using $82,648 to repay certain convertible notes during the year ended December 31, 2011.

Results of Operations
 
This section describes and compares our results of operations for the three years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  At December 31, 2013, we had ownership interests in 36 single-user retail properties, 53 Neighborhood Centers, 31 Community Centers, 36 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 twelve 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 84 of our investment properties were “same store” properties during the periods presented.  These properties comprise approximately 7.9 million square feet.  In the table below, “other investment properties” includes activity from properties acquired during the years ended December 31, 2013 (including the consolidation of assets formerly in the NYSTRS joint venture), 2012 and 2011, 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 interests to investors.  Once the operations are deconsolidated, the income is included in equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.  The “same store” investment properties represented 73% of the square footage of our consolidated portfolio at December 31, 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 years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 along with reconciliation to net income (loss) 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 year ended December 31, 2013, with the results of the same investment properties owned during the year ended December 31, 2012), property net operating income increased $2,908, with total property income increasing by $7,464 and total property operating expenses increasing $4,556

In comparing the results of operations from the “same store” properties during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, property net operating income increased $4,121 with total property income increasing $4,809 and total property operating expenses increasing $688.
 
Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders increased $92,886 when comparing the year ended December 31, 2013 to the year ended December 31, 2012 and increased $17,981 when comparing the year ended December 31, 2012 to the year ended December 31, 2011, for the reasons explained below.

Table of Contents

Rental income
Rental income increased $1,432 on a "same store" basis, for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 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 $15,628 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 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 $2,730 on a “same store” basis, for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, primarily due to the effect of increased income generated by new leases signed during the respective periods and the end of any associated rent abatement periods.  Total rental income decreased $1,450 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, reflecting a decrease in rental income from our “other investment properties” during the year.  The decrease is primarily due to the impact of contributing properties to our joint venture with PGGM during 2011 and 2012. This decrease is partially offset by properties acquired during these same periods.

Tenant recovery income
Tenant recovery income increased $4,765 on a "same store" basis, tor the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. Including "other investment properties," total recovery income increased $13,818 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 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 abatement periods.

Tenant recovery income increased $1,705 on a "same store" basis, for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. Total tenant recovery income decreased $1,793 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. 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

Property operating expenses
Property operating expenses increased $3,072 on a "same store" basis, for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. Including "other investment properties," property operating expenses increased $5,953, for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in property operating expenses during the year is due primarily to the consolidation during the year ended December 31, 2013 of the properties formerly held in our joint venture with NYSTRS and an increase in total snow removal costs year over year.

Property operating expenses decreased $2,293 on a "same store" basis and $3,503 including "other investment properties," for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in property operating expenses during the year is due primarily to a decrease in total snow removal costs. Additionally, the decrease in total property operating expenses is a result of the contribution of properties to our joint venture with PGGM during 2011 and 2012.

Real estate tax expense
Real estate tax expense increased $1,484 on a "same store" basis, for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. Including "other investment properties," real estate tax expense increased $8,180, for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 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 year ended December 31, 2013 of the properties formerly held in our joint venture with NYSTRS.

Real estate tax expense increased $2,981 on a "same store" basis, for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. Including "other investment properties," real estate tax expense increased $246, for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The change in real estate tax expense is due to the same reason as described above. Additionally, the increase in total real estate tax expense is partially offset by the contribution of properties to our joint venture with PGGM during 2011 and 2012.

Other income
Other income decreased $1,860 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, primarily due to decreased dividend income and gains on sale of securities, due to the sale of all securities during the year

ended December 31, 2013. Additionally, the decrease is due to the settlement of an outstanding obligation with the prior owner of one of our investment properties during the year ended December 31, 2012.

Other income increased $1,251 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, primarily due to interest income received in the current year on our mortgages receivable and the aforementioned settlement of an outstanding obligation with the prior owner of one of our investment properties.

Fee income from unconsolidated joint ventures
Fee income from unconsolidated joint ventures increased $1,124 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is due to increased acquisition fees earned on sales of interest through our joint venture with IPCC. Acquisition fees earned may vary based on the number of properties sold, the original acquisition price 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 year ended December 31, 2013 of the properties formerly held in our joint venture with NYSTRS.
 
Fee income from unconsolidated joint ventures decreased $270 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in fee income is due to a decrease in acquisition fees earned on sales of interest through our joint venture with IPCC. This decrease was almost entirely offset by increased management fees from our unconsolidated joint ventures due to increased revenues as a result of an increased number of properties under management.

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 year ended December 31, 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. Recording the properties at fair value at the point of 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 year ended December 31, 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 and comprehensive income. 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 (loss) from change in control of investment properties
During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we recorded a gain on the change in control of investment properties in the amount of $95,378 and $2,420, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded a loss on the change in control of investment properties in the amount of $1,400.

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 year ended December 31, 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 year ended December 31, 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, of which a gain of $2,356 is reflected in gain (loss) from change in control of investment properties and a loss of $1,313 is included in discontinued operations, subsequent to the sale of this land parcel during the year ended December 31, 2013.

Also, during the year ended December 31, 2012, we, on behalf of the joint venture formed to develop the property known as The Shops at Lakemoor, negotiated with the lender of the indebtedness secured by the property to repay the mortgage payable, which matured in October 2012, at a discount. The joint venture previously established to develop this property was dissolved, ownership of the property 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 $11,041. We then repaid the entire $22,105 mortgage with a payment of $11,000, resulting in a gain on the extinguishment of debt in the amount of $11,105. We recorded a net gain on the change in control of $64 related to this transaction.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, we took control of Orchard Crossing, a property previously owned through our joint venture with Pine Tree Institutional Realty, LLC (“Pine Tree”).  The consolidation of this property resulted in a net loss of $1,400.

Gain on sale of joint venture interest
Gain on sale of joint venture interest increased $667 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 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 decreased $600 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011.  This is due to decreased gains on sale in connection with sales of interest in properties through our joint venture with IPCC.

Equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures
Equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $5,018 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended year ended December 31, 2012. The primary reason for the increase was increased net income on the unconsolidated pool of properties, including the acquisitions through our joint venture with PGGM. Partially offsetting this increase is the elimination of income from our joint venture with NYSTRS, upon consolidation of the properties.

Equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $10,999 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The primary reason for the increase was increased "same store" net operating income on the unconsolidated pool of properties and an increase of $1,338 of the amortization of basis differences associated with our unconsolidated joint ventures. Also affecting the increase were total impairment losses of $17,878 recorded during the year ended December 31, 2011 at the joint venture level. Our pro rata share of this loss, equal to $7,824, is included in this line item on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Income tax benefit decreased $3,625 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, due primarily to the reversal of the deferred tax asset for asset impairments resulting from the sale of property and the change in ownership control during the periods. For tax purposes, the asset impairments were 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 benefit increased $5,714 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The primary reason for the increase in the tax benefit was a decrease of $6,974 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 extinguishment of debt.

Bad debt expense
Bad debt expense decreased $552 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in bad debt expense is due to fewer tenant bankruptcies and tenant failures.

Bad debt expense decreased $1,038 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, due to the same reason as discussed above.
 
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased $15,442 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 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 $5,657 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, due to depreciation expense recorded on newly acquired investment properties, new tenant improvement assets for work related to new leases, additional properties owned through our joint venture with IPCC, while they were consolidated and the write off of tenant improvement assets, as a result of lease terminations.

General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $2,885 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is due to an increase in payroll and related items as a result of additional staff for our increasing portfolio of assets under management, increased legal costs related to general corporate matters, including our ongoing litigation regarding the Algonquin Commons foreclosure, increased fees paid to our board of directors as a result of a rate increase and additional meetings and increased transaction pursuit costs.

General and administrative expenses increased $2,896 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is due to an increase in payroll and related items as a result of additional staff, increased legal costs related to general corporate matters and increased computer and software costs.

Interest expense
Interest expense decreased $282 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease is due to lower interest expense on our unsecured line of credit facility and term loan, subsequent to the amendments completed. This decrease is offset by increased interest expense due to the consolidation during the year ended December 31, 2013 of the properties and related debt formerly held in our joint venture with NYSTRS.

Interest expense decreased $5,896 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense and the related discount amortization that we eliminated by repurchasing our convertible notes during 2011. Interest expense on our mortgages payable decreased due in most part to the contribution of investment properties to our joint venture with PGGM during 2011 and 2012. These decreases were partially offset by increased interest on our unsecured term loan due in most part to a full year of interest expense in 2012 for the new $50,000 term loan entered into in November 2011.
 
Provision for asset impairment
During the year ended December 31, 2013, in a transaction to dissolve our joint venture with Pine Tree, we took control of Southshore Shopping Center and Pine Tree took control of Lantern Commons Shopping Center. This transaction resulted in a provision for asset impairment in the amount of $10,468. No gain or loss was recorded upon consolidation of the assets and liabilities of Southshore Shopping Center.

Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded a provision for asset impairment, equal to approximately $2,767 related to Lake Park Plaza, a consolidated asset. We signed a contract to sell the property at a price below its current carrying value and therefore were required to write the asset down to its fair market value.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded a provision for asset impairment of $5,223 to record our investment in three development joint ventures at fair value.

Reference is made to our discussion under the caption "Critical Account Policies" in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for a discussion of our impairment policies.

Income from discontinued operations
Income from discontinued operations increased $9,251 for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, due in most part to lease termination fees received from certain tenants before the properties were sold and higher gains on the sale of investment properties.

Related party transactions
We pay affiliates of The Inland Real Estate Group, Inc. ("TIGI") for real estate-related brokerage services, investment advisory services and various administrative services. 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, owns approximately 12.5% of our outstanding common stock.  During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, we paid to TIGI and/or its affiliates $1,974, $2,239, and $2,156, respectively, for these various services.  Reference is made to Note 7, “Transactions with Related Parties” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for detail of the total amounts paid during the previous three years.  We may continue to use these services during 2014; however, the intended level of use is being evaluated and has not yet been determined.

Portfolio Activity

During the year ended December 31, 2013, our leasing activity remained strong and our leasing spreads were positive on both new and renewal leases in our consolidated portfolio.  During the year ended December 31, 2013, we executed 44 new, 175 renewal and 50 non-comparable leases (expansion square footage or spaces for which no former tenant was in place for one year or more), aggregating approximately 1,652,000 square feet of our consolidated portfolio.   The 44 new leases comprise approximately 336,000 square feet with an average rental rate of $12.34 per square foot, a 9.4% increase over the average expiring rate.  The 175 renewal leases comprise approximately 1,178,000 square feet with an average rental rate of $12.56 per square foot, a 6.8% increase over the average expiring rate.  The 50 non-comparable leases comprise approximately 138,000 square feet with an average base rent of $13.16 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 ending December 31, 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 concessions was three to five months.
 
During 2014, 129 leases, comprising approximately 591,000 square feet and accounting for approximately 5.6% 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 $13.23 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.

In October 2013, Safeway announced that they would be exiting the Chicagoland market by closing all of the Dominick's stores. We have six Dominick's stores in our consolidated portfolio, two already dark and four that were operating and one operating store in our unconsolidated portfolio. As of December 31, 2013, the Dominick's stores in our portfolio closed, however, Safeway remains obligated under all of the leases and we expect that they will continue to honor their lease obligations.

Subsequent to the end of the year, we sold a consolidated Dominick's store, located in Countryside, Illinois to an unaffiliated third party at price above our current carrying value. Additionally, we have been notified by Dominick's that the leases for one of the consolidated Dominick's stores and the one unconsolidated store have been assigned to grocery operators.

The lease at the unconsolidated location, part of Woodland Commons, located in Buffalo Grove, Illinois has been assigned and will be operated as a Mariano's grocery store. The lease at the consolidated location, part of Downers Grove Marketplace, located in Downers Grove, Illinois has been assigned and will be operated as a Caputo's grocery store. We are still awaiting notification of any lease assignments for our four remaining locations, although we do not anticipate a lease assignment of the two previously non-operating locations.

(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.

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 year ended December 31, 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.

Impact of 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, we added a new footnote containing the required disclosure.

Inflation
 
Certain long term leases contain provisions to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on our operating results.  Such provisions include clauses entitling us to receive scheduled base rent increases and base rent increases based upon the consumer price index.  In addition, the majority of our leases require tenants to pay operating expenses, including maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in cost and operating expenses resulting from inflation.
 
Subsequent Events
 
Reference is made to Note 19, “Subsequent Events” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our subsequent event disclosures, which is incorporated into this Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Item 7A.  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 December 31, 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, 2018 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 $168,360 of our mortgages payable, including required monthly principal amortization, matures prior to the end of 2014. Included in the debt maturing in 2014 is outstanding principal of approximately $90,247, secured by our Algonquin Commons property, which is currently subject to foreclosure litigation and we cannot currently predict the outcome of the litigation. We intend to repay the 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 December 31, 2013 reflect the value of the notes including the remaining unamortized discount of $425.
(d)
The total debt above reflects the total principal amount outstanding. The consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2013 reflect the value of the debt including the remaining unamortized mortgages premium/discount of $3,023.
(e)
Included in the debt maturing during 2017 is our unsecured line of credit facility, totaling $95,000. 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 December 31, 2013, the weighted average interest rate on outstanding draws on the line of credit facility was 1.89%. This credit facility requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions. As of December 31, 2013, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.
(f)
Included in the debt maturing during 2018 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 December 31, 2013, the weighted average interest rate on the term loan was 1.84%.  This term loan requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of December 31, 2013, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.
(g)
Included in the debt maturing during 2018 is our $50,000 term loan which matures in November 2018.  We pay interest only during the term of this loan at a variable rate, with an interest rate floor of 3.50%.  As of December 31, 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 December 31, 2013, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.

Table of Contents

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 December 31, 2013, approximately $366,200, or 43%, of our debt bore interest at variable rates, with a weighted average rate of 2.13% 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 $3,662 and $3,610 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Inland Real Estate Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Inland Real Estate Corporation (the Company) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three‑year period ended December 31, 2013. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited financial statement schedule III. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Inland Real Estate Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three‑year period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Inland Real Estate Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated February 28, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Inland Real Estate Corporation:
We have audited Inland Real Estate Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Inland Real Estate Corporation’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Inland Real Estate Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Inland Real Estate Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2013, and our report dated February 28, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

INLAND REAL ESTATE CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2013
 
(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, number of properties, number of states, number of leases and number of employees.
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidated joint ventures.  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 year ended December 31, 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.

In November 2013, the Company entered into a joint venture to develop grocery-anchored shopping centers in select markets throughout the southeastern U.S. with MAB, an affiliate of Melbourne, Australia-based MAB Corporation. The five-year development program is expected to target metropolitan areas in the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, Virginia and Washington D.C. MAB Corporation is a privately owned property development company and fund manager that has completed retail, office, multi-family and industrial projects at locations in Australia, New Zealand and the U.S. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the Company has exclusive rights to all grocery-anchored, build-to-suit opportunities in the southeastern U.S. sourced by MAB. Upon site approval by the Company, the Company will provide 90% of the equity required to fund approved project costs, while MAB will be responsible for the remaining 10% of the equity, plus venture management, sourcing and acquisition of sites, project financing and all property and development duties. The joint venture agreement also provides that the Company will purchase each grocery-anchored center at a discount to fair market value after stabilization. A typical project likely will consist of a 50,000-square-foot grocery store with approximately 20,000 square feet of additional retail space.

Accounting Policies
 
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers 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.  The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions.  The combined account balances at one or more institutions 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 deposits in excess of FDIC insurance coverage.  However, the Company does not believe the risk is significant based on its review of the rating of the institutions where its cash is deposited.  FDIC insurance currently covers up to $250 per depositor at each insured bank.

Consolidation
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 transactions are eliminated.

In instances where the Company is not the primary beneficiary of a VIE the Company uses the equity method of accounting.  Under the equity method, the operations of a joint venture are not consolidated with the Company’s operations.  Instead, the Company’s share of operations is reflected as equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.  Additionally, the Company’s net investment in the joint venture is reflected as investment in and advances to joint venture as an asset on the consolidated balance sheets.

Capitalization and Depreciation
Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method.  Building and improvements are depreciated based upon estimated useful lives of each asset type.  The Company accounts for tenant allowances as tenant improvements.  Tenant improvements are depreciated over the life of the related lease.
 
Acquired above and below market leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related leases as an adjustment to rental income.  For below market leases with fixed rate bargain renewals, renewal periods are included in the calculation of below market lease values and the amortization period. Acquired in-place leases and customer relationship values are amortized over the life of the related leases as a component of amortization expense.
 
Leasing fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related lease.  Loan fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related loan, which approximate the effective interest method.  Leasing fees and loan fees are presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as deferred costs.  Deferred costs are presented net of accumulated amortization of $8,100 and $6,945 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
The Company expenses acquisition costs for investment property acquisitions accounted for as business combinations.
 
Acquisition and Disposition of Investment Properties
The Company allocates the purchase price of each acquired investment property between land, building and improvements, other intangibles (including acquired above market leases, acquired below market leases, customer relationships and acquired in-place leases) and any liabilities assumed, including debt that is recorded at fair value taking into consideration any above or below market terms.  Purchase price allocations are based on our estimates.  The value allocated to land as opposed to building affects the amount of depreciation the Company records.  If more value is attributed to land, depreciation expense is lower than if more value is attributed to building and improvements.  In some circumstances, the Company engages independent real estate appraisal firms to provide market information and evaluations that are relevant to its purchase price allocations; however; the Company is ultimately responsible for the purchase price allocations.  The Company determines whether any financing assumed is above or below market based upon comparison to similar financing terms for similar investment properties.
 
Amortization pertaining to the above market lease intangibles of $3,203, $1,313 and $832 was recorded as a reduction to rental income for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  Amortization pertaining to the below market lease intangibles of $2,987, $1,880 and $1,202 was recorded as an increase to rental income for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  The Company incurred amortization expense pertaining to acquired in-place lease intangibles of $22,159, $8,744 and $6,539 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  In the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, acquired lease intangibles is presented net of accumulated amortization of $32,982 and $16,139 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively and acquired below market lease intangibles are net of accumulated amortization of $5,859 and $3,739 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The table below presents the amounts to be recorded for the amortization of intangibles over the next five years:

In determining whether to classify an asset as held for sale, the Company considers whether: (i) management has committed to a plan to sell the asset; (ii) the asset is available for immediate sale, in its present condition; (iii) the Company has initiated a program to locate a buyer; (iv) the Company believes that the sale of the asset is probable; (v) the Company has received a significant non-refundable deposit for the purchase of the property; (vi) the Company is actively marketing the asset for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current value; and (vii) actions required for the Company to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that any significant changes will be made to the plan.
 
If all of the above criteria are met, the Company classifies the asset as held for sale.  On the day that these criteria are met, the Company 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 held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.  The assets and liabilities associated with those assets that are held for sale are classified separately on the consolidated balance sheets for the most recent reporting period.  Additionally, the operations for the periods presented are classified on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

The Company accounts for dispositions in accordance with guidance over real estate sales. The Company recognizes gain in full when real estate is sold, provided (a) the profit is determinable, that is, the collectability of the sales price is reasonably assured or the amount that will not be collectible can be estimated, and (b) the earnings process is virtually complete, that is, the seller is not obliged to perform significant activities after the sale to earn the profit. The Company records the transaction as discontinued operations for all periods presented in accordance with applicable guidance.
 
Revenue Recognition
Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of each lease.  The difference between rental income earned on a straight-line basis and the cash rent due under provisions of the lease agreements is recorded as deferred rent receivable and is included as a component of accounts and rents receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
 
The Company accrues lease termination income if there is a signed termination agreement, all of the conditions of the agreement have been met and the tenant is no longer occupying the property.  Upon early lease termination, the Company provides for losses related to unrecovered intangibles and other assets.
 
As a lessor, the Company defers the recognition of contingent rental income, such as percentage/excess rent until the specified target that triggered the contingent rental income was achieved.
 
Impairment of Assets
The Company assesses the carrying values of its investment properties, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these investment properties may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability of the investment properties is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the investment property to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows.  In order to review the Company’s investment properties for recoverability, the Company considers current market conditions, as well as its intent with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques; including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third party appraisals, where considered necessary. If the Company’s analysis indicates that the carrying value of the investment property is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, the Company recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the current estimated fair value of the real estate property.
 
The Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows based on management’s intent as follows: (i) for real estate properties that the Company intends to hold long-term, including land held for development, properties currently under development and operating buildings, recoverability is assessed based on the estimated future net rental income from operating

the property; (ii) for real estate properties that the Company intends to sell, including land parcels, properties currently under development and operating buildings, recoverability is assessed based on estimated proceeds from disposition that are estimated based on future net rental income of the property and expected market capitalization rates; and (iii) for costs incurred related to the potential acquisition or development of a real estate property, recoverability is assessed based on the probability that the acquisition or development is likely to occur as of the measurement date.
 
The use of projected future cash flows is based on assumptions that are consistent with the Company’s estimates of future expectations and the strategic plan it uses to manage its underlying business. However, assumptions and estimates about future cash flows, discount rates and capitalization rates are complex and subjective. Changes in economic and operating conditions and the Company’s ultimate investment intent that occur subsequent to our impairment analysis could impact these assumptions and result in future impairment charges of our real estate properties.
 
The Company also reviews its investments in unconsolidated entities.  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 fair value. The use of projected future cash flows and other estimates of fair value, the determination of when a loss is other than temporary, and the calculation of the amount of the loss, is complex and subjective. Use of other estimates and assumptions may result in different conclusions. Changes in economic and operating conditions that occur subsequent to the Company’s review could impact these assumptions and result in future impairment charges of its equity investments.
 
During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded $5,748, $722 and $2,841 respectively of impairment charges related to six consolidated investment properties; Lake Park, Cub Foods located in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, Park Square, Riverplace Center, Grand Traverse Crossing and 10th Street Center located in Indianapolis, Indiana.  The Company had explored the disposition of these properties and determined that due to the decrease in our estimated hold period, the expected undiscounted cash flows related to these properties no longer supported their current carrying values.  For each property, a letter of intent or contract for sale had been signed, at a price below the properties current carrying value, indicating a reduction in the property’s carrying value.  Therefore, the Company wrote these properties down to their fair value.  During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company estimated the impairment loss related to Grand Traverse Crossing and 10th Street Center and recorded the appropriate adjustment. Both properties were sold in 2012 and required a further impairment adjustment.
 
Convertible Notes
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 total principal amount outstanding was $29,215 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of debt is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.  The fair value of the Company’s debt is estimated to be $363,788 for debt which bears interest at variable rates and $509,929 for debt which bears interest at fixed rates.  The Company estimates the fair value of its 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.  The Company has not elected the fair value option with respect to its debt.  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.
 
Offering Costs
Offering costs are offset against the Stockholders’ equity accounts.  Offering costs consist principally of printing, legal, selling and registration costs.

Accounts and Mortgages Receivable
The Company periodically reviews the collectability of outstanding receivables.  Allowances are taken for those balances that the Company has reason to believe will be uncollectable, including amounts relating to straight-line rent receivables.  As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had recorded approximately $5,592 and $4,108, respectively, as an allowance for uncollectable accounts on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
 
A mortgage receivable is considered impaired if it is probable that the Company will not collect all principal and interest contractually due. The impairment loss is calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the loan’s effective interest rate or to the fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, if the loan is collateral dependent. The Company does not accrue interest when a note is considered impaired.  When ultimate collectability of the principal balance of the impaired note is in doubt, all cash receipts on the impaired note are applied to reduce the principal amount of the note until the principal has been recovered and are recognized as interest income thereafter. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had mortgages receivable of $12,955. The Company had no outstanding mortgages receivable at December 31, 2013.
 
Derivatives
The Company may enter into derivative financial instrument transactions in order to mitigate its interest rate risk on a related financial instrument.  The Company may designate these derivative financial instruments as hedges and apply hedge accounting, as the instrument to be hedged will expose it to interest rate risk, and the derivative financial instrument is designed to reduce that exposure.  The Company entered into an interest rate swap contract to limit its exposure to variable interest rates.  These derivative instruments were designated as cash flow hedges and therefore qualify for hedge accounting.  The effective portion of the derivatives gain or loss is initially reported as a component of comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the transaction affects earnings.  The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in earnings immediately.
 
Noncontrolling Interests
 
The Company includes the accounts of all entities in which it holds a controlling financial interest in its consolidated financial statements. A controlling financial interest was typically attributable to the entity with a majority voting interest. However, controlling financial interests may be achieved through arrangements that do not involve voting interests. The controlling financial interest is held by the entity that will absorb a majority of the entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns, or both.
 
A noncontrolling interest is the portion of equity (net assets) in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent. The ownership interests in the subsidiary that are held by owners other than the parent are noncontrolling interests. Such noncontrolling interests are reported on the consolidated balance sheets within equity, separately from the Company’s equity. On the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, revenues, expenses and net income or loss from less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries are reported at the consolidated amounts, including both the amounts attributable to the Company and noncontrolling interests. Consolidated statements of equity are included for both quarterly and annual financial statements, including beginning balances, activity for the period and ending balances for shareholders’ equity, noncontrolling interests and total equity.
 
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
 
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company sold its investment securities portfolio. At December 31, 2012, investment in securities included $7,711 of perpetual preferred securities and common securities classified as available-for-sale securities, which were recorded at fair value. In addition, the Company has a $1,000 investment in preferred securities which is 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. This investment is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2013.
 
Unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities were excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of comprehensive income until realized.  The Company had a net unrealized gain of $0 and $762 on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities were determined on a specific identification basis.  Sales of investment securities available-for-sale during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 resulted in gains on sale of $991, $1,401 and $1,264, respectively, which are included in other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.  Dividend income was recognized when received.
 
The Company evaluated its investments for impairment quarterly.  The Company’s policy for assessing near term recoverability of its available for sale securities was to record a charge against net earnings when the Company determined that a decline in the fair value of a security dropped below the cost basis and it believed it to be other than temporary. 

(3)    Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
 
General Joint Venture Discussion

Unconsolidated joint ventures are those where the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in the joint venture or is not the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity.  The Company accounts for its interest in these ventures using the equity method of accounting.  The Company’s profit/loss allocation percentage and related investment in each joint venture is summarized in the following table.

The fee income from the joint venture with PGGM has increased each year due to the increase in assets under management. The fee income from the joint venture with IPCC has increased each year due to the increase in assets under management, however, also varies based on the timing of acquisition fees earned based on the number of properties sold, the original acquisition prices of the properties and the timing of sales in each period. The fee income from the joint venture with NYSTRS decreased due to the consolidation on June 3, 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 years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded $2,690, $3,478 and $2,140, respectively, of amortization of this basis difference, which is included in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures in the accompanying 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 (loss) 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 $281,000 and PGGM's maximum total equity contribution is approximately $230,000.

As of December 31, 2013, the joint venture has acquired a total of approximately $638,000 of retail assets, including those properties contributed by the Company. As of December 31, 2013, PGGM's remaining maximum potential equity contribution was approximately $67,050 and the Company's was approximately $81,950.

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 years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company did not contribute additional assets to the joint venture during the year ended December 31, 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 year ended December 31, 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 year ended December 31, 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 brought this joint venture full cycle when it 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 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 unconsolidated, the income is included in equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures until all ownership interests have been sold.  The table below reflects those properties that were deconsolidated during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and therefore no longer represent the consolidated assets and liabilities of the VIE.

During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the joint venture with IPCC acquired thirty, twenty-four and twenty-two investment properties, respectively.  In conjunction with the sales of ownership interest, the Company recorded gains of approximately $1,433, $766 and $1,366 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, 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 (losses) resulting from the fair value adjustments of the respective assets acquired and liabilities assumed are reflected as gain (loss) from change in control of investment properties on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

On December 13, 2013, in a transaction to dissolve our joint venture with Pine Tree, the Company took control of Southshore Shopping Center and Pine Tree took control of Lantern Commons Shopping Center. This transaction resulted in a provision for asset impairment in the amount of $10,468 and is included in provision for asset impairment on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. No gain or loss was recorded upon consolidation of the assets and liabilities of Southshore Shopping Center.

Additionally, 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.

On April 20, 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 the 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

On November 13, 2012, the Company, on behalf of the TDC/Inland Lakemoor, LLC joint venture, negotiated with the lender of the Shops at Lakemoor development property to repay the mortgage payable, which matured in October 2012, at a discount. The joint venture previously established to develop this property was dissolved and the development property and remaining indebtedness were consolidated by the Company. The consolidation of this property resulted in a loss of approximately $11,041. The Company then repaid the entire $22,105 mortgage with a payment of $11,000, resulting in a gain on the extinguishment of debt in the amount of $11,105. The Company recorded a net gain on the change in control of $65 related to this transaction.

On February 1, 2011, the Company took control of Orchard Crossing, a property previously held through its joint venture with Pine Tree. The consolidation of this property resulted in a net loss of $1,400.

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 would typically be derived using Level 3 inputs. 

The impairment of assets during the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2011 at the joint venture level and the Company's pro-rata share are included in the table below. No impairment losses were required or recorded during the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company's pro-rata share of the loss is included in equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

_____________________________________
(a)
The portfolio includes twelve properties leased to 7-Eleven.

The Company has not included pro forma financial information related to the above properties acquired during the year ended December 31, 2013. Properties acquired through our joint venture with IPCC are only consolidated for a short period of time until the first sale to 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. On July 25, 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 two investment properties, Warsaw Commons and Goldenrod Marketplace with the intention of holding these properties 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.

77

Table of Contents
INLAND REAL ESTATE CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2013


Level 3 — model-derived valuations with unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity
 
Assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their classifications within the fair value hierarchy levels.
 
For assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, quantitative disclosure of the fair value for each major category of assets and liabilities is presented below:

(a)
The Company entered into these interest rate swaps as a requirement under certain secured mortgage loans.
(b)
The disclosure is included to provide information regarding the inputs used to determine the fair value of the outstanding debt, in accordance with existing accounting guidance 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 December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company used rates of 3.7% and 4.2%, respectively, for fixed rate debt and 2.3% 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 December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The Company estimates the fair value of its investment properties and unconsolidated joint venture properties by using income and market valuation techniques.  The Company may estimate fair values, using market information such as broker opinions of value, recent sales data for similar assets, negotiated letters of intent or discounted cash flow models, which primarily rely on Level 3 inputs.  The cash flow models include estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period.  These cash flows may include contractual rental revenues, projected future rental revenues and expenses and forecasted tenant improvements and lease commissions based upon market conditions determined through discussion with loan real estate professionals, experience the Company has with its other owned investment properties in such markets and expectations for growth.  Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are estimated by management based upon rates that management believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties based upon an analysis of factors such as property and tenant quality, geographical location and local supply and demand observations.  To the extent the Company under estimates forecasted cash outflows (tenant improvements, lease commissions and operating costs) or over estimates forecasted cash inflows (rental revenue rates) the estimated fair value of its real estate assets could be overstated.

The Company periodically reviews its investment in unconsolidated entities for impairment.  The estimated fair value is based on reviews of the expected cash flows to be received from the respective ventures and other observable inputs.  In some instances, the Company may perform a discounted cash flow analysis on an unconsolidated entity’s underlying assets.  The cash flows are comprised of unobservable inputs including expected and forecasted inflows and outflows over a specific holding period.
 
(6)    Mortgages and Notes Receivable
 
In conjunction with the sale of Montgomery Plaza in Montgomery, Illinois, the Company gave a purchase money mortgage to the buyer in the amount of $515.  The buyer was required to pay interest only on a monthly basis at a rate of 6.0% per annum, as well as monthly payments for taxes and insurance.  The loan matured on May 1, 2012. The Company received the entire balance of the mortgage receivable and accrued interest upon maturity. The Company recorded $10 and $31 of interest income for the years ended December 31, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

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 is $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 years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $234 and $335, respectively.  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 $1,225 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 year ended December 31, 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.  During the year ended December 31, 2012, the TRS received a cash distribution of $550 from funds held by the current receiver, which was recorded as interest income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The TRS obtained title to each of these properties through foreclosure proceedings during the year ended December 31, 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. Consolidating the two properties upon acquisition resulted in a gain of $2,410.

On July 25, 2013, the TRS sold the Eola Commons Shopping Center, and intends to sell Winfield Pointe Shopping Center.

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 December 31, 2013, there were no properties classified as held for sale.
 
On the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has recorded $197 and $231, respectively of assets related to discontinued operations and $47 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 years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company has recorded income from discontinued operations of $11,910, $2,659 and $2,245, respectively, including gains on sale of $9,196, $3,380 and $1,510, respectively.  Two investment properties sold during the year ended December 31, 2013 were sold at prices below their current carrying value and as a result, a provision for asset impairment totaling $2,981 was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2013. Three investment properties sold during the year ended December 31, 2012 were sold at prices below their current carrying value and as a result, a provision for asset impairment totaling $722 and $2,841 was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Pursuant to the lease agreements, tenants of the property are required to reimburse the Company for some or all of the particular tenant’s pro rata share of the real estate taxes and operating expenses of the property.  Such amounts are not included in the future minimum lease payments above, but are included in tenant recoveries on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
 
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 $1,322, $910 and $1,562 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, of rental income for the period of occupancy for which stepped rent increases apply and $21,865 and $20,543 in related accounts receivable as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The Company anticipates collecting these amounts over the terms of the leases as scheduled rent payments are made.

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 sales 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 December 31, 2013.  The Company expects no significant increases or decreases in uncertain tax positions due to changes in tax positions within one year of December 31, 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 years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 or in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. As of December 31, 2013, returns for the calendar years 2010 through 2012 remain subject to examination by U.S. and various state and local tax jurisdictions.
 
Income taxes have been provided for on the asset and liability method, as required by existing guidance.  Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities.
 
The TRS entities' benefit (expense) provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 is summarized as follows:

The Company estimated its income tax expense relating to its TRS entities using a combined federal and state rate of approximately 40% for the tax years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011.
 
The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets decreased by $1,356 in 2013. 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. The Company believes that it is more likely than not that the benefit from certain impairment losses will not be realized. In recognition of this uncertainty, we have provided a valuation allowance of $1,240 on the deferred tax assets relating to these impairment losses. The Company's judgment changed due to the change in control transactions described in Note 3 and the related fair value adjustments.

Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is more likely than not that they will be realized based on consideration of available evidence, including future reversal of existing taxable temporary difference, future projected taxable income and tax planning strategies.  In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.  The Company has considered various factors, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment.  The Company has recorded $1,240 and $2,596, as a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The balance of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
 
(12)    Distributions
 
For federal income tax purposes, distributions may consist of ordinary dividend income, non-taxable return of capital, capital gains or a combination thereof.  Distributions to the extent of the Company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes are taxable to the recipient as either ordinary dividend income or capital gain distributions.  Distributions in excess of these earnings and profits (calculated for income tax purposes) constitute a non-taxable return of capital rather than ordinary dividend income or a capital gain distribution and reduce the recipient’s basis in the shares to the extent thereof. Distributions in excess of earnings and profits that reduce a recipient’s basis in the shares have the effect of deferring taxation of the amount of the distribution until the sale of the stockholder’s shares. If the recipient's basis is reduced to zero, distributions in excess of the aforementioned earnings and profits (calculated for income tax purposes) constitute taxable gain.
 
In order to maintain the Company’s status as a REIT, the Company must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income, subject to certain adjustments, to its stockholders.  For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s taxable income was $48,257 and $61,378, respectively.  Holders of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the board of directors, cumulative preferential cash distributions based on the stated rate and liquidation preference per annum.  The Company declared monthly distributions on our Preferred Stock totaling $8,949 and $7,910, or $2.03 on an annual basis per share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

(a)
Approximately $168,360 of the Company's mortgages payable, including required monthly principal amortization, matures prior to the end of 2014. Included in the debt maturing in 2014 is outstanding principal of approximately $90,247 secured by the Company's Algonquin Commons property, which is currently subject to foreclosure litigation and the Company cannot currently predict the outcome of the litigation. The Company intends to repay the remaining maturing debt upon maturity using available cash and/or borrowings under our 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 December 31, 2013 reflect the value of the notes including the remaining unamortized discount of $425.
(c)
The total debt above reflects the total principal amount outstanding. The consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2013 reflect the value of the debt including the remaining unamortized mortgages premium/discount of $3,023.
(d)
Included in the debt maturing during 2017 is the Company's unsecured line of credit facility, totaling $95,000. 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 December 31, 2013, the weighted average interest rate on outstanding draws on the line of credit facility was 1.89%. This credit facility requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions. As of December 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.
(e)
Included in the debt maturing during 2018 is the Company’s $180,000 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 December 31, 2013, the weighted average interest rate on the term loan was 1.84%.  This term loan requires compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, minimum net worth requirements, distribution limitations and investment restrictions.  As of December 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.
(f)
Included in the debt maturing during 2018 is the Company’s $50,000 term loan which matures in November 2018.  The Company pays interest only during the term of this loan at a variable rate, with an interest rate floor of 3.50%.  As of December 31, 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 December 31, 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 December 31, 2013 was $494,809 and they bore interest at a weighted average interest rate of 5.03% per annum.  The consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2013 reflect the fair value of the mortgage debt, including the remaining unamortized mortgages premium/discount of $3,023. Of this amount, $453,609 bore interest at fixed rates ranging from 4.00% to 6.50% per annum and a weighted average fixed rate of 5.28% per annum as of December 31, 2013.  The remaining $41,200 of mortgage debt bears interest at variable rates with a weighted average interest rate of 2.27% per annum as of December 31, 2013.  As of December 31, 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, a Company subsidiary ceased paying the monthly debt service on the two mortgage loans secured by both phases of Algonquin Commons. The Company subsidiary had hoped to reach an agreement with the special servicer that would revise the loan structure to make continued ownership of the property economically feasible. In January 2013, the Company subsidiary received notice that a complaint had been filed by the lender to Algonquin Commons, alleging events of default under the loan documents and seeking to foreclose on the property. In connection with the complaint, the plaintiff filed a motion for appointment of a receiver and the court granted the motion and issued an order effective February 28, 2013, appointing a receiver for the property. As a result, the receiver and its affiliated management company are now managing and operating Algonquin Commons and are now collecting all rents for the property. The Company cannot currently estimate the impact the dispute will have on its consolidated financial statements and may not be able to do so until a final outcome has been reached. The Company subsidiary believes the payment guaranty has, however, ceased and is of no further force and effect as a result of the conditions for termination having been met when the performance metrics set forth in the payment guaranty were

met. As the Company has previously disclosed, if it is required to pay the full $18,600 outstanding under the guarantee, or a foreclosure occurs, there could be a material adverse effect on its cash flows and results of operations for the period and the year in which it occurs. The Company believes these events would not have a material effect on its consolidated balance sheets because there would be a corresponding reduction in both assets and liabilities. If the Company is required to pay under the payment guarantee, it would expect to fund this payment using available cash and/or a draw on its unsecured line of credit facility.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
 
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
 
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions.  The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risk, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and, to a limited extent, the use of derivative instruments.
 
Specifically, the Company has entered into derivative instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates.  The Company’s derivative instruments, described below, are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash payments principally related to certain of the Company’s borrowings.
 
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
 
The Company’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage exposure to interest rate movements and add stability to interest expense.  To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
 
The Company currently has one interest rate swap outstanding that is used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with its variable-rate debt.  The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in comprehensive income (expense) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.  The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives, if any, is recognized directly in earnings.  The Company has entered into one interest rate swap contract as a requirement under a secured mortgage and the hedging relationship is considered to be highly effective as of December 31, 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 $2,068 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 year ended December 31, 2013, this property was deconsolidated.

As of December 31, 2013 and 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 December 31, 2013, the fair value of derivatives in a liability position related to this agreement was $4,904. 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 $5,376.
 
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 current market terms at the time of the borrowing and not the terms of the existing line of credit facility.  The lending group is not obligated to approve access to the additional funds.
 
The line of credit facility 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.
 
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 December 31, 2013 and 2012, the outstanding balance on the line of credit facility was $95,000 and $80,000, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had up to $85,000 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 will accrue interest at an effective rate calculated in accordance with the loan documents, provided, however, that in

87

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

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 December 31, 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 December 31, 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 December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has recorded $183, in each period, 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 December 31, 2013 and 2012

Included in the year ended December 30, 2011 are the notes previously issued in 2006 with an effective interest rate of 5.875%, the rate at which a similar instrument without the conversion feature could have been obtained in November 2006. These notes were paid in full during the year ended December 31, 2011.
 
(14)    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 December 31, 2013 and 2012, options to purchase 70 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 December 31, 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 of the numerator and denominator used in the basic and diluted EPS calculations, excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests:

Unvested restricted shares of common stock, the effect of which would be anti-dilutive, were 103 for the year ended December 31, 2011. These shares were not included in the computation of diluted EPS as a loss from continuing operations was reported.
 
In November 2009, the Company entered into a three-year Sales Agency Agreement with BMO Capital Markets Corp. (“BMO”) to offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering amount of up to $100,000 from time to time through BMO, acting as sales agent.  Offers and sales of shares of its common stock, if any, may be made in privately negotiated transactions (if the Company and BMO have so agreed in writing) or by any other method deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange or to or through a market maker.  The Company has referred to this arrangement with BMO in this report on Form 10-K as its ATM issuance program.  As of the November 9, 2012 expiration date, the Company had issued an aggregate of approximately 3,816 shares of its common stock through the ATM issuance program, since inception.  The Company received net proceeds of approximately $31,691 from the issuance of these shares, which reflects approximately $32,504 in gross proceeds, offset by approximately $813 in commissions and fees.  The Company used the proceeds from shares issue through the program for general corporate purposes, which included repayment of mortgage indebtedness secured by its properties, acquiring real property through wholly-owned subsidiaries or through the Company’s investment in one or more joint venture entities and repaying amounts outstanding on the unsecured line of credit facility, among other things.

On November 16, 2012, the Company entered into a new 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 of up to $150,000 from time to time through the Agents. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has issued an aggregate of approximately 996 shares of its common stock through the new ATM issuance program. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $9,948 from the issuance of these shares, comprised of approximately $10,100 in gross proceeds, offset by approximately $152 in commissions and fees. The Company intends to use the proceeds in accordance with the "Use of Proceeds" disclosure in the corresponding prospectus and any supplements to the prospectus, as file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of December 31, 2013, approximately $139,900 remained available for sale under this issuance program.

In October 2011, the Company issued 2,000 shares of 8.125% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred Stock") at a public offering price of $25.00 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $48,400, after deducting the underwriting discount but before expenses. The proceeds were initially used to pay down debt to capture interest expense savings. The proceeds were then used to acquire investment properties.

In February 2012, the Company issued 2,400 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a public offering price of $25.3906 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $59,000, after deducting the underwriting discount, but before expenses. The Company used the net proceeds of the offering to purchase additional investment properties. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had no cumulative preferred stock dividends in arrears.

The Series A Preferred Stock rank senior to the common shares of beneficial interest with respect to payment of distributions; the Company will not pay any distributions, or set aside any funds for the payment of distributions, on its common stock unless it has also paid (or set aside for payment) the full cumulative distributions on the Series A Preferred Stock for the current and all past dividend periods. The outstanding Series A Preferred Stock does not have any maturity date, and is not subject to mandatory redemption. The difference between the carrying value and the redemption amount of the Series A Preferred Stock is the offering costs. In addition, the Company is not required to set aside funds to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock. The Company may not optionally redeem the Series A Preferred Stock prior to October 6, 2016, except in limited circumstances relating to the Company's continuing qualifications as a REIT or as discussed below. After that date, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or from time to time in part, by payment of $25.00 per share, plus any accumulated, accrued and unpaid distributions to and including the date of redemption. In addition, upon the occurrence of a change of control (as defined in the Company's charter), the result of which the Company's common stock and the common securities of the acquiring or surviving entity are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE Amex Equities or the NASDAQ Stock Market, or any successor exchanges, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock in whole or in part within 120 days after the change of control occurred, by paying $25.00 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid distributions to and including the date of redemption. If the Company does not exercise its right to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock upon a change of control, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock have the right to convert some or all of their shares into a number of the Company's shares of common stock based on a defined formula subject to a cap of 27,600 shares of common stock. 

(15)    Deferred Stock Compensation
 
The Company has issued restricted common stock to certain officers of the Company pursuant to employment agreements entered into with these officers, employment incentives and as an additional form of compensation to the Company's board of directors. 
 
The share price of the issued shares is determined by averaging the high and low selling price on the date of issue, as reported by the New York Stock Exchange.  Each officer vests an equal portion of shares over a five-year vesting period, beginning one year from the date of issuance of the award. Each director vests an equal portion of shares over a three-year vesting period, beginning one year from the date of issuance of the award.  The officers/directors may receive additional restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, which are also subject to the applicable vesting period.  The number of these shares is to be determined based upon the future performance of the Company.  Salary expense of $909, $643 and $397 were recorded in connection with the vesting of these shares, for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(17)    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, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, 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 is has a single reportable segment.
 
(18)    Commitments and Contingencies
 
The Company is subject, from time to time, to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business.  While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes, based on currently available information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial statements of the Company.

 Notes:

(A)
The initial cost to the Company represents the original purchase price of the property, including amounts incurred subsequent to acquisition which were contemplated at the time the property was acquired.
(B)
The aggregate cost of real estate owned at December 31, 2013 and 2012 for federal income tax purposes was approximately $1,628,584 and $1,402,206, respectively (unaudited).
(C)
Not included in the encumbrance, land and improvements, building and improvements, and accumulated depreciation totals are North Aurora Towne Center I & II and Southshore Shopping Center, which are considered development properties. As of December 31, 2013, these amounts for North Aurora Towne Center I & II are $2,163, $1,127, $3,209, and $224 respectively. As of December 31, 2013, these amounts for Southshore Shopping Center are $398 for land and improvements and $3,331 for building and improvements.
(D)
Adjustments to basis include additions to investment properties net of payments received under master lease agreements.  The Company, from time to time, receives payments under master lease agreements covering spaces vacant at the time of acquisition.  The payments range from one to two years from the date of acquisition of the property or until the space is leased and the tenants begin paying rent.  U.S. GAAP requires the Company to treat these payments as a reduction to the purchase price of the investment properties upon receipt of the payment, rather than as rental income.  As of December 31, 2013, the Company had no investment properties subject to a master lease agreement.

Item 9.  Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
 
None.

 Item 9A.  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 December 31, 2013, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 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.
 
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on its evaluation under the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992), the Company’s management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2013.
 
The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
All internal control systems have inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 has been audited by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein.
 
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 December 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Item 9B. Other Information
 
None.

Certain of the agreements listed as exhibits to this Form 10-K (collectively the “Agreements”), which have been filed to provide investors with information regarding their terms, contain representations, warranties, and covenants made by the Company and the other parties to these Agreements. The inclusion of the Agreements as exhibits is not intended to modify or supplement any factual or other disclosures to investors about the parties to those Agreements, including the Company, and the Agreements should be read by investors together with the periodic and current reports and other statements that the Company furnishes to or files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Agreements govern the contractual rights and duties of, and allocate risks among, the parties in the context of the transactions contemplated by the Agreements. The representations and warranties made by the parties in the Agreements reflect the result of negotiations between the parties, are solely for the benefit of the parties and may be limited or modified by a variety of factors, including: subsequent events, information included in public filings, disclosures made during negotiations, correspondence between the parties and disclosure schedules and disclosure letters, as applicable, to the Agreements. Accordingly, the representations and warranties may not describe the actual state of affairs at the date they were made or at any other time. In addition, the standard of materiality applicable to information included in, or omitted from, representations and warranties made by the parties in the Agreements may differ from the standard of materiality applicable to disclosures and other information provided by the Company to its investors, and accordingly investors in the Company should not rely on these representations and warranties as if they are statements of fact being made by the Company to its investors at the time of this filing or as of any other time.
