Item 8.01 Other Events
Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Registrant”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8−K (the “Form 8−K”) to update the historical financial statements, Selected Financial Data, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10−K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Form 10−K”) to reflect discontinued operations, as discussed below. This Form 8−K will permit the Registrant to incorporate these financial statements by reference, or otherwise, in future Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings. The information in this Form 8−K is not an amendment to or restatement of the 2012 Form 10−K.
The results of operations of certain of the Registrant's consolidated properties that were sold subsequent to December 31, 2012 were reported as a component of discontinued operations for each of the periods presented in the Registrant’s Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2013 ("First Quarter 2013 Form 10-Q"). Under SEC requirements, the same reclassification as discontinued operations is required for each period presented in the Registrant's previously issued annual financial statements included in the Registrant’s 2012 Form 10−K, if those financial statements are to be incorporated by reference in subsequent filings with the SEC made under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Consequently, this Form 8−K updates Items 6, 7, 8 and 15(a)2 ("Schedule III- Real Estate Assets and Accumulated Depreciation" only) of the Registrant’s 2012 Form 10−K to reclassify those properties sold subsequent to December 31, 2012 as a component of discontinued operations for each period presented. This reclassification has no effect on the Registrant’s previously reported net income, net income available to common stockholders, Funds From Operations (“FFO”), Core FFO, and Adjusted FFO, as well as the related per share amounts.
Additionally, the Registrant anticipates filing one or more registration statements relating to debt securities of Piedmont Operating Partnership, LP (the "Operating Partnership"), guaranteed by the Registrant. When one or more registration statements becomes effective, the Registrant will become subject to the requirements of Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X regarding financial statements of guarantors and issuers of guaranteed registered securities. As a result, the Registrant is also filing this Form 8-K for the purpose of adding an additional footnote to the financial statements originally presented in the 2012 Form 10-K. Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference, includes an additional footnote (“Note 19: Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Financial Information”) with condensed consolidating financial information for the Registrant, the Operating Partnership, and the non-guarantor subsidiaries.
No other items in the 2012 Form 10-K, other than those identified above, are being updated by this filing. Information in the 2012 Form 10-K is generally stated as of February 27, 2013, and this filing does not reflect any subsequent information or events other than those described above. Without limitation of the foregoing, this filing does not purport to update the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the 2012 Form 10-K for any forward-looking statements. More current information is contained in the Registrant's First Quarter 2013 Form 10-Q and the Registrant’s other filings with the SEC for periods and events occurring after May 2, 2013. This Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the 2012 Form 10-K and the First Quarter 2013 Form 10-Q as well as the Registrant’s other filings with the SEC.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 included elsewhere in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Overview
We are a fully integrated, self-managed real estate investment trust specializing in the acquisition, ownership, management, development, and disposition of primarily high-quality Class A office buildings located in major U.S. office markets and leased primarily to high-credit-quality tenants. We operate as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes.
Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE:PDM) and based on our December 31, 2012 equity market capitalization of $3.0 billion, Piedmont is the fifth largest office REIT in the United States in comparison to the constituents of the Bloomberg U.S. Office REIT Index.
Our portfolio of commercial office buildings is primarily leased to large, credit-worthy, government and corporate tenants, and the majority of our revenue is derived from our office properties in the ten largest U.S. office markets based on rentable square footage, with the most significant concentration in the premier office markets of Chicago, Washington, D.C., and the New York metropolitan area. As of December 31, 2012, we owned and operated 74 office properties (excluding five buildings owned through unconsolidated joint ventures), which are located in 17 metropolitan areas. These 74 office properties comprise 20.5 million square feet, primarily Class A commercial office space, and were 87.5% and 86.5% leased as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
During the three years ended December 31, 2012, we have been reducing the number of markets we operate within by selling non-strategic assets and recycling the proceeds into assets and markets which we believe have the greatest potential to contribute to enterprise value over time. In addition, during that same time frame, we have been working through a period of intense releasing activity due to the fact that many of our properties were acquired approximately ten years ago with typically seven to ten years of lease term remaining. As a result a significant number of leases expired during the last three years. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we executed new or renewal leases for 3.4 million and 4.0 million square feet, respectively. On a combined basis, this equates to re-leasing over a third of our total portfolio during the last two years.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We intend to use cash flows generated from the operation of our wholly-owned properties, distributions from our joint ventures, proceeds from selective property dispositions, and proceeds from our $500 Million Unsecured Line of Credit as our primary sources of immediate liquidity. Depending on the timing and volume of our property acquisition and disposition activities and debt maturities, we may also seek other financing opportunities (such as issuance of additional equity or debt securities or additional borrowings from third-party lenders) afforded to us based on our relatively low leverage and quality asset base as additional sources of capital; however, the availability and attractiveness of terms for these sources of capital is highly dependent on market conditions. As of February 27, 2013, we had $155.0 million outstanding under our $500 Million Unsecured Line of Credit. As a result, we had approximately $325.6 million under this facility available for future borrowing (approximately $19.4 million of capacity is reserved as security for outstanding letters of credit required by various third parties).
We estimate that our most consistent use of capital will be to fund capital expenditures for our existing portfolio of properties. These expenditures include two types of specifically identified building improvement projects: (i) general repair and maintenance projects that we as the owner may choose to perform at our discretion at any of our various properties and (ii) tenant improvement allowances and leasing commissions that we have committed to as part of executed leases with our tenants. Due to the high lease rollover that we have been experiencing over the last several years, the majority of our recent capital expenditures have related to tenant improvement allowances and leasing commissions. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we spent approximately $5.39 and $5.40 per square foot per year of lease term, respectively, for such capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2012, unrecorded contractual obligations for non-incremental tenant improvements related to our existing lease portfolio totaled $111.9 million. The timing of the funding of these commitments is largely dependent upon tenant requests for reimbursement; however, we would anticipate that the majority of this amount would be requested over the next 24-36 months as certain significant leases commence. In some instances, these obligations may expire with the respective lease, without further recourse to us. Additionally, commitments for incremental capital expenditures associated with new leases, primarily at value-add properties, total approximately $63.8 million.
4
We also anticipate granting market-based concession packages, typically consisting of tenant allowances and/or rent abatement periods, and paying broker commissions in conjunction with negotiating future leases. Given that our model is to lease large blocks of space to credit-worthy tenants, as evidenced by our average lease size of between 35,000 and 40,000 square feet, some of the concession packages that we grant can result in significant capital outlays. In particular, over the next eighteen months there are three blocks of space in excess of 200,000 square feet in our Washington, D.C portfolio that will be subject to re-leasing negotiations, and we may grant significant concession packages to secure new, or renew existing, tenants for those buildings. Both the timing and magnitude of these amounts have yet to be determined and are highly dependent on competitive market conditions at the time of lease negotiations.
Subject to the identification and availability of attractive investment opportunities and our ability to consummate additional acquisitions on satisfactory terms, acquiring new assets compatible with our investment strategy could also be a significant use of capital. Further, our board of directors has authorized a repurchase program for our common stock for use when we believe that our stock is trading at a meaningful discount to what we believe the fair value of our assets to be. As of December 31, 2012, there was $208.0 million of authorized capacity remaining on that program which could be spent prior to the program's expiration on November 2, 2013.
On a longer term basis, we expect to use capital to repay debt when obligations become due. We currently have no debt maturing in 2013; however, we have $575 million of secured debt maturing in 2014. Subject to our assessment of market conditions, we currently anticipate refinancing these maturities with unsecured debt prior to their maturity dates in 2014. In anticipation of such an issuance and considering the historically low interest rate environment, we entered into two forward starting interest rate swaps, in November 2012 and January 2013, totaling $140 million to partially protect the Company against rising interest rates and to lock a portion of the interest rate on any future unsecured debt issuance. Again, subject to our assessment of market conditions, we may enter into additional similar swaps during the next twelve months.
The amount and form of payment (cash or stock issuance) of future dividends to be paid to our stockholders will continue to be largely dependent upon (i) the amount of cash generated from our operating activities; (ii) our expectations of future cash flows; (iii) our determination of near-term cash needs for debt repayments and selective acquisitions of new properties; (iv) the timing of significant expenditures for tenant improvements and general property capital improvements; (v) long-term payout ratios for comparable companies; (vi) our ability to continue to access additional sources of capital, including potential sales of our properties; and (vii) the amount required to be distributed to maintain our status as a REIT. Given the fluctuating nature of cash flows and expenditures, we may periodically borrow funds on a short-term basis to cover timing differences in cash receipts and cash disbursements.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2012 vs. the year ended December 31, 2011
Income from continuing operations per share on a fully diluted basis decreased from $0.50 for the year ended December 31, 2011 to $0.37 for the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily due to the recognition of $7.5 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in litigation settlement expense and approximately $5.2 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in net casualty loss in the current year, whereas the prior year's results included approximately $9.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in gains and non-recurring income associated with the foreclosure and consolidation of the 500 W. Monroe building located in Chicago, Illinois and higher lease termination income.

Revenue
Rental income for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased to approximately $419.1 million, as compared to $409.1 million in the prior year. Approximately $7.8 million of the variance is attributable to the recognition of a full year's rental revenue for properties acquired during the year ended December 31, 2011. Additionally, several significant leases commenced in late 2011 or during the year ended December 31, 2012, contributing approximately $5.4 million of the year over year increase. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in leased space due to lease expirations at various properties. In many cases, we have since executed a new lease for the expiring space, but the new lease has not yet commenced. Although we have one significant governmental tenant in our Washington, D.C. portfolio which is expected to vacate its space when its lease expires in March of 2013, we anticipate the decrease in revenue associated with this expiration will be partially offset by the commencement of some of these previously executed leases.
Tenant reimbursements decreased from approximately $114.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 to approximately $107.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease is attributable to the expiration of several significant leases during the last several years. In many cases, the expiring space has been re-leased; however, the replacement lease was in some form of abatement during the year ended December 31, 2012. Rental abatements, including operating expense reimbursement abatements, are frequently offered as part of a rental concession package in conjunction with negotiating a lease. Operating expense abatements are recognized in the period that they relate to, rather than on a straight-line basis like rental abatements. In addition, tenant reimbursement income related to properties acquired during the year ended December 31, 2011 contributed approximately $1.1 million to offset the decline in tenant reimbursements related to lease expirations and abatements.
Property management fee revenue increased from approximately $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 to approximately $2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily as a result of retaining the property management of the 35 West Wacker Drive building in Chicago, Illinois subsequent to selling the building to an unrelated third-party in December 2011.
6
Other rental income is comprised primarily of income recognized for lease terminations and restructurings. Unlike the majority of our rental income, which is recognized ratably over long-term contracts, lease termination income is recognized once we have completed our obligation to provide space to the tenant. Such rental income is not comparable between existing or future periods, as it is dependent upon the exercise of lease terminations by particular tenants and/or the execution of restructuring agreements that are deemed by management to be in the best interest of the portfolio over the long term. Generally, the $3.7 million decrease in other rental income for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011 was due to fewer lease terminations during the current year as compared to the prior year.
Expense
Property operating costs increased approximately $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year. Approximately $4.7 million of increase is due to the recognition of a full year's operating expense related to properties acquired during the year ended December 31, 2011. In addition, we also incurred higher property tax expense of approximately $2.4 million due to the non-recurrence of certain favorable tax appeals recognized in the prior year; however, this increase was significantly offset by a decrease in utility costs of approximately $2.1 million due to a milder winter.
Depreciation expense increased approximately $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year. Approximately $6.5 million of this increase was attributable to depreciation on additional tenant improvements and building expenditures capitalized subsequent to January 1, 2011. The remainder of the increase is due to the recognition of a full year's depreciation expense related to properties acquired during the year ended December 31, 2011.
Amortization expense decreased approximately $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily as a result of lease intangible assets becoming fully amortized at certain of our existing portfolio of properties subsequent to January 1, 2011. This decrease was partially offset by the acceleration of amortization expense on certain lease intangible assets related to a lease termination due to a tenant bankruptcy at our 500 W. Monroe building, which contributed approximately $2.0 million of additional expense compared to the prior year.
General and administrative expenses decreased approximately $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the prior year primarily due to lower expense associated with our deferred stock compensation plan in the current period, as well as recoveries in excess of current period billings from our insurance carriers related to our litigation defense.
Other Income (Expense)
Interest expense decreased approximately $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the prior year primarily due to the repayment of $230 million of secured debt between November 2011 and May 2012. However, in November 2011, we entered into a $300 Million Unsecured Term Loan which has an effective interest rate of 2.69% compared to the previous $250 Million Unsecured Term Loan, which carried an effective rate of 2.36% prior to its maturity in June 2011. The decrease in interest expense as a result of the secured debt pay-offs noted above was partially offset by the higher interest rate and principal balance on the unsecured term loan.
Interest and other income decreased approximately $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the prior year. The decrease primarily reflects the recognition in the prior period of previously deferred property operating income upon the successful foreclosure and consolidation of the 500 W. Monroe building.
For the year ended December 31, 2012 we recognized $7.5 million of litigation settlement expense related to potential settlement agreements of the two class action lawsuits which are pending approval. See Notes 2 and 10 of our accompanying consolidated financial statements for further detail.
The approximate $5.2 million net casualty loss we recognized during the year ended December 31, 2012 is due to damage incurred at certain of our assets in the New York/New Jersey markets as a result of Hurricane Sandy which occurred during the fourth quarter of 2012. The damaged properties include the 60 Broad Street building in New York City, New York and the 400 Bridgewater Crossing building in Bridgewater, New Jersey. Such damage resulted in expenses relating to equipment destroyed; costs to clean, repair, and establish emergency operations at the buildings; and rental abatements issued to tenants for business interruption due to their inability to access the space that they lease from us for certain periods of time. These costs totaled approximately $9.2 million and were offset by the recognition of approximately $4.0 million in insurance recoveries. We anticipate further recoveries related to Hurricane Sandy under our insurance programs in future periods.
The approximate $1.5 million gain on the consolidation of VIE recognized during the year ended December 31, 2011 was the net result of recording the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired through our foreclosure of the 500 W. Monroe building.
7
The approximate $1.0 million gain on the extinguishment of debt recognized during the year ended December 31, 2011 was the result of our paying off a $45 million mezzanine loan on the 500 W. Monroe building at a discount.
Discontinued Operations
In accordance with GAAP, the operations of the Eastpointe Corporate Center in Issaquah, Washington; the 5000 Corporate Court building in Holtsville, New York; the 35 West Wacker Drive building; the Deschutes building, the Rhein building, the Rogue building, and the Willamette building, as well as 18.19 acres of adjoining, undeveloped land in Beaverton, Oregon (the "Portland Portfolio"); the 26200 Enterprise Way building in Lake Forest, California; and the 110 and 112 Hidden Lake Circle buildings in Duncan, South Carolina are classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Additionally, as further described in the notes accompanying this Current Report on Form 8-K, the results of properties sold in March 2013 (1111 Durham Avenue building in South Plainfield, New Jersey), and May 2013 (the 1200 Enclave Parkway building in Houston, Texas) are also classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Income from discontinued operations decreased approximately $107.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to the recognition of the gain on the sale of the 35 West Wacker Drive building in December 2011 as well as a reduction in operating income in the current period from properties sold during the year ended December 31, 2011. We do not expect that income from discontinued operations will be comparable to future periods, as such income is subject to the timing and existence of future property dispositions.
Comparison of the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2011 vs. the year ended December 31, 2010
Income from continuing operations per share on a fully diluted basis decreased from $0.63 for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $0.50 for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to the increase in property operating costs, and increased depreciation and amortization expense associated with properties acquired during 2010 and 2011. Although rental income increased due to properties acquired during the same period, such rental income was negatively impacted by lower rental rates and reductions in leased space at certain of our existing properties. Additionally, we recognized non-recurring, non-cash gains of approximately $1.5 million and $1.0 million related to the consolidation of the VIE containing the 500 W. Monroe building and the early extinguishment of a $45 million mezzanine loan on the building, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2011.

Revenue
Rental income for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased to approximately $409.1 million, as compared to $398.5 million in the prior year. Approximately $23.9 million of the variance is due to properties acquired during 2010 and 2011, as well as increased occupancy at our Piedmont Pointe I and II buildings in Bethesda, Maryland. However, this increase was partially offset by a reduction in leased space due to the increased number of lease expirations and terminations over the past several years. We also experienced lower rates for leases commencing in late 2010 or subsequent to December 31, 2010, primarily related to leases at our 1200 Crown Colony Drive building in Quincy, Massachusetts and our 150 West Jefferson building in Detroit, Michigan, which further offset the aforementioned increases in rental revenues.
Tenant reimbursements increased from approximately $113.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to approximately $114.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to properties acquired during 2010 and 2011, which accounts for a $9.9 million increase in tenant reimbursements. This variance was largely offset by a decrease in property tax reimbursements due to successful appeals of the assessed values at several of our buildings of approximately $7.0 million as well as a reduction in leased space primarily due to a significant lease expiration at our Windy Point II building.
Other rental income is comprised primarily of income recognized for lease terminations and restructurings. Unlike the majority of our rental income, which is recognized ratably over long-term contracts, lease termination income is recognized once we have completed our obligation to provide space to the tenant. We do not expect other rental income to be comparable in existing or future periods, as it is dependent upon the exercise of lease terminations by particular tenants and/or the execution of restructuring agreements that are deemed by management to be in the best interest of the portfolio over the long term. The most significant component of the approximately $4.7 million in other rental income recognized during the year ended December 31, 2011 related to a lease termination at our 1201 Eye Street building of approximately $2.6 million. Other rental income for the year ended December 31, 2010 relates primarily to a lease termination at our Chandler Forum building in Chandler, Arizona of approximately $3.4 million.
9
Expense
Property operating costs increased approximately $10.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to 2010. This variance is due primarily to properties acquired during 2010 and 2011, which accounts for an approximate $13.9 million increase in property costs. This variance was partially offset by lower estimated property tax expense of approximately $3.4 million as a result of successful appeals of the assessed values at several of our buildings.
Depreciation expense increased approximately $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to 2010. The variance is primarily attributable to properties acquired during 2010 and 2011, comprising approximately $5.0 million of the increase. Additionally, new tenant improvements and building expenditures capitalized at our existing properties subsequent to January 1, 2010 resulted in additional depreciation expense of approximately $2.0 million.
Amortization expense increased approximately $16.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to 2010. The increase is primarily attributable to properties acquired during 2010 and 2011, accounting for approximately $19.0 million of the increase, as well as acceleration of amortization expense on certain lease intangible assets related to various lease terminations at certain of our buildings. The variance is partially offset by lower amortization expense recognized for lease intangible assets that became fully amortized subsequent to January 1, 2010.
General and administrative expenses decreased approximately $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to 2010. The decrease is primarily attributable to a change in our transfer agent in January 2011 and costs associated with our recapitalization of our common stock, listing of our common stock on the NYSE, and other related investor support expenses in 2010. The decrease was partially offset by higher legal fees related to our defense of ongoing litigation.
Other Income (Expense)
Interest expense decreased approximately $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to 2010 due to a decrease in the weighted average interest rate for our outstanding debt in the second half of 2011 after the $250 Million Unsecured Term Loan matured in June and was replaced with borrowings on the $500 Million Unsecured Facility. This decrease was partially offset by additional interest expense related to loans on the 500 W. Monroe building assumed in March 2011.
Interest and other income decreased approximately $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to 2010. The variance is attributable to an increase in acquisition costs of approximately $0.7 million, due to greater building acquisition activity in the current period.
Equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures decreased approximately $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to 2010 as a result of the disposition of two unconsolidated joint venture properties in 2011; the 360 Interlocken building in Broomfield, Colorado, and the 47300 Kato Road building in Fremont, California. We expect equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures to decrease as our unconsolidated joint ventures approach their stated dissolution periods.
The approximate $1.5 million gain on the consolidation of variable interest entity ("VIE") recognized during the year ended December 31, 2011 was the net result of recording the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired through our foreclosure of the 500 W. Monroe building.
The approximate $1.0 million gain on the extinguishment of debt during 2011 is the result of our paying $43.9 million to the respective lenders in full satisfaction of a $45 million mezzanine loan on the 500 W. Monroe building. Piedmont did not incur a defeasance or yield maintenance penalty but did incur approximately $0.1 million of expense associated with the accelerated amortization of capitalized finance costs related to the loan.
Discontinued Operations
In accordance with GAAP, we have classified the operations of the 111 Sylvan Avenue building in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, the Eastpointe Corporate Center, the 5000 Corporate Court building, the 35 West Wacker Drive building, the Portland Portfolio, the 26200 Enterprise Way building, and the 110 and 112 Hidden Lake Circle buildings as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Additionally, as further described in the notes accompanying this Current Report on Form 8-K, the results of properties sold in March 2013 (1111 Durham Avenue building in South Plainfield, New Jersey), and May 2013 (the 1200 Enclave Parkway building in Houston, Texas) are also classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Income from discontinued operations increased approximately $125.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to 2010. We realized a combined gain on the sale of our Eastpointe Corporate Center, 5000 Corporate Court building, and the 35 West Wacker Drive building of approximately $122.7 million during 2011. There was no activity in 2011 at the 111 Sylvan Avenue building as the property was sold in December 2010.

Funds From Operations, Core Funds From Operations, and Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”)
Net income calculated in accordance with GAAP is the starting point for calculating FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO. FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income. Management believes that accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. As a result, we believe that the use of FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO, together with the required GAAP presentation, provides a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities.
We calculate FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition as follows: Net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property and impairment charges (including our proportionate share of any impairment charges and/or gains or losses from sales of property related to investments in unconsolidated joint ventures), plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets (including our proportionate share of depreciation and amortization related to investments in unconsolidated joint ventures). Other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do; therefore, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs.
We calculate Core FFO as FFO (calculated as set forth above) less acquisition costs and other significant, non-recurring items.
We calculate AFFO as Core FFO (calculated as set forth above) exclusive of the net effects of: (i) amortization associated with deferred financing costs; (ii) depreciation of non real estate assets; (iii) straight-line lease revenue/expense; (iv) amortization of above and below-market lease intangibles; (v) stock-based and other non-cash compensation expense; (vi) amortization of mezzanine discount income; (vii) acquisition costs, and (viii) non-incremental capital expenditures (as defined below). Our proportionate share of such adjustments related to investments in unconsolidated joint ventures are also included when calculating AFFO.

All prior periods presented have been recalculated in accordance with the new definition for comparability. |
Property and Same Store Net Operating Income (Cash Basis)
Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI") (cash basis) is a non-GAAP measure which we use to assess our operating results. It is calculated as real estate operating income with the add-back of corporate general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization, and impairment losses and the deduction of income and expense associated with lease terminations and income associated with property management performed by Piedmont for other organizations. We present this measure on a
12
cash basis, which eliminates the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue. The company uses this measure as a proxy for the cash generated by our real estate properties. Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI") is another non-GAAP measure very similar to Property NOI, however, Same Store NOI only reflects Property NOI attributable to the properties owned or placed in service during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods. Same Store NOI excludes amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint venture assets. We believe Same Store NOI is an important measure because it allows us to compare the cash flows generated by our same real estate properties from one period to another. Other REITs may calculate Same Store NOI differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.
The following table sets forth our Same Store NOI (cash basis) with a reconciliation to our net income attributable to common stockholders (GAAP basis) for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively (in thousands):

Due to the period of significant lease rollovers that we have been experiencing over the last several years, Same Store NOI decreased from approximately $298.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 to approximately $285.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Although much of the space associated with expiring leases has been re-leased, many of these replacement leases do not commence until future periods after extensive refurbishment of the space has occurred or, even if the lease has commenced, the new lease may be at lower rental rates or have contained some form of rental abatement. Additionally, in some cases replacement tenants have not yet been identified. All of these items negatively impact Same Store NOI on a cash basis; however, as our executed but not commenced leases begin and rental abatement periods expire, we expect there will be greater Same Store NOI growth than might otherwise be expected based on changes in our overall leased percentage alone.
Election as a REIT
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code and have operated as such beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 1998. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our adjusted REIT taxable income, computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains attributable to our stockholders, as defined by the Code. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we may be subject to federal income taxes on our taxable income for that year and for the four years following the year during which qualification is lost and/or penalties, unless the IRS grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to our stockholders. However, we believe that we are organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT and intend to continue to operate in the foreseeable future in such a manner that we will remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. We have elected to treat Piedmont Office Holdings, Inc. (“POH”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Piedmont, as a taxable REIT subsidiary. POH performs non-customary services for tenants of buildings that we own, including real estate and non-real estate related-services; however, any earnings related to such services performed by our taxable REIT subsidiary are subject to federal and state income taxes. Furthermore during 2011, POH, through a wholly-owned subsidiary (Piedmont Power, LLC), commenced a project to install solar panels at our 400 Bridgewater Crossing building. In addition, for us to continue to qualify as a REIT, our investments in taxable REIT subsidiaries cannot exceed 25% of the value of our total assets.
Inflation
We are exposed to inflation risk, as income from long-term leases is the primary source of our cash flows from operations. There are provisions in the majority of our tenant leases that are intended to protect us from, and mitigate the risk of, the impact of inflation. These provisions include rent steps, reimbursement billings for operating expense pass-through charges, real estate tax, and insurance reimbursements on a per square-foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses above certain per square-foot allowance. However, due to the long-term nature of the leases, the leases may not readjust their reimbursement rates frequently enough to fully cover inflation.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
Our accounting policies have been established to conform with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus, resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. The critical accounting policies outlined below have been discussed with members of the Audit Committee of the board of directors.
Investment in Real Estate Assets
We are required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of our depreciable assets. We consider the period of future benefit of the asset to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments have a direct impact on net income. The estimated useful lives of our assets by class are as follows:
14
Buildings | 40 years |
Building improvements | 5-25 years |
Land improvements | 20-25 years |
Tenant improvements | Shorter of economic life or lease term |
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment | 3-5 years |
Intangible lease assets | Lease term |
Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Assets
Upon the acquisition of real properties, we allocate the purchase price of properties to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land and building, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases and the value of in-place leases, based in each case on their estimated fair values.
The fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and building) are determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building based on management’s determination of the fair value of these assets. We determine the as-if-vacant fair value of a property using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by us in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases, including leasing commissions and other related costs. In estimating carrying costs, we include real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses during the expected lease-up periods based on current market conditions.
The fair values of above-market and below-market in-place leases are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) our estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining terms of the leases, taking into consideration the probability of renewals for any below-market leases. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values are recorded as intangible lease assets or liabilities and amortized as an adjustment to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
The fair values of in-place leases include direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, opportunity costs associated with lost rentals that are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease, and tenant relationships. Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated based on our consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct costs are included in deferred lease costs in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs is calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. Customer relationships are valued based on expected renewal of a lease or the likelihood of obtaining a particular tenant for other locations. These lease intangibles are included in intangible lease assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
Estimating the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets requires us to estimate market lease rates, property operating expenses, carrying costs during lease-up periods, discount and capitalization rates, market absorption periods, and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of inappropriate estimates would result in an incorrect assessment of our purchase price allocations, which would impact the amount of our reported net income.
Valuation of Real Estate Assets and Investments in Joint Ventures which Hold Real Estate Assets
We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate and related intangible assets, both operating properties and properties under construction, in which we have an ownership interest, either directly or through investments in joint ventures, may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present for wholly-owned properties, which indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate and related intangible assets may not be recoverable, we assess the recoverability of these assets by determining whether the carrying value will be recovered from the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, we adjust the real estate and related intangible assets to the fair value and recognize an impairment loss. For our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, we assess the fair value of our investment, as compared to our carrying amount. If we determine that the carrying value is greater than the fair value at any measurement date, we must also determine if such a difference is temporary in nature. Value fluctuations which are “other than temporary” in nature are then recorded to adjust the carrying value to the fair value amount.
Projections of expected future cash flows require that we estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number
15
of years the property is held for investment, among other factors. The subjectivity of assumptions used in the future cash flow analysis, including capitalization and discount rates, could result in an incorrect assessment of the property’s fair value and, therefore, could result in the misstatement of the carrying value of our real estate and related intangible assets and our net income attributable to Piedmont.
Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts specifically assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in purchase accounting for business combinations, as well as costs incurred as part of the acquisition. We test the carrying value of our goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or on an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. Such interim circumstances may include, but are not limited to, significant adverse changes in legal factors or in the general business climate, adverse action or assessment by a regulator, unanticipated competition, the loss of key personnel, or persistent declines in an entity’s stock price below carrying value of the entity. The test prescribed by authoritative accounting guidance is a two-step test. The first step involves comparing the estimated fair value of the entity to its carrying value, including goodwill. Fair value is determined by adjusting the trading price of the stock for various factors including, but not limited to: (i) liquidity or transferability considerations, (ii) control premiums, and/or (iii) fully distributed premiums, if necessary, multiplied by the common shares outstanding. If such calculated fair value exceeds the carrying value, no further procedures or analysis is permitted or required. However, if the carrying value exceeds the calculated fair value, goodwill is potentially impaired and step two of the analysis would be required. Step two of the test involves calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the entity from the entity’s fair value calculated in step one of the test. If the implied value of the goodwill (the remainder left after deducting the fair values of the entity from its calculated overall fair value in step one of the test) is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss would be recognized. We have determined through the testing noted above that there are no issues of impairment related to our goodwill as of December 31, 2012.
Investment in Variable Interest Entities
Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) are defined by GAAP as entities in which equity investors do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. If an entity is determined to be a VIE, it must be consolidated by the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the enterprise that has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, absorbs the majority of the entity’s expected losses, or receives a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns. Generally, expected losses and expected residual returns are the anticipated negative and positive variability, respectively, in the fair value of the VIE’s net assets. When we make an investment, we assess whether the investment represents a variable interest in a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Incorrect assumptions or assessments may result in an inaccurate determination of the primary beneficiary. The result could be the consolidation of an entity acquired or formed in the future that would otherwise not have been consolidated or the non-consolidation of such an entity that would otherwise have been consolidated.
We evaluate each investment to determine whether it represents variable interests in a VIE. Further, we evaluate the sufficiency of the entities’ equity investment at risk to absorb expected losses, and whether as a group, the equity has the characteristics of a controlling financial interest.
Interest Rate Derivatives
We periodically enter into interest rate derivative agreements to hedge our exposure to changing interest rates on variable rate debt instruments. As required by GAAP, we record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. We reassess the effectiveness of our derivatives designated as cash flow hedges on a regular basis to determine if they continue to be highly effective and also to determine if the forecasted transactions remain highly probable. Currently, we do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
The changes in fair value of interest rate swap agreements designated as effective cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income (“OCI”), and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transactions occur. Changes in the fair values of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, if any, would be recorded as gain/(loss) on interest rate swap in the consolidated statements of income. The fair value of the interest rate derivative agreement is recorded as interest rate derivative asset or as interest rate derivative liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Amounts received or paid under interest rate derivative agreements are recorded as interest expense in the consolidated income statements as incurred. All of our interest rate derivative agreements as of December 31, 2012 are designated as cash flow hedges.
16
Stock-based Compensation
We have issued stock-based compensation in the form of restricted stock to our employees and directors. For employees, such compensation has been issued pursuant to our Long-term Incentive Compensation ("LTIC") program. The LTIC program is comprised of an annual restricted stock grant component and a multi-year performance share component. Awards granted pursuant to the annual restricted stock component are considered equity awards and expensed straight-line over the vesting period, with issuances recorded as a reduction to additional paid in capital. Awards granted pursuant to the performance share component are considered liability awards and are expensed over the service period, with issuances recorded as a reduction to accrued expense. The compensation expense recognized related to both of these award types is recorded as property operating costs for those employees whose job is related to property operation and as general and administrative expense for all other employees and directors in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
Related-Party Transactions and Agreements
There were no related-party transactions during the three years ended December 31, 2012.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are not dependent on off-balance sheet financing arrangements for liquidity. Our off-balance sheet arrangements are discussed in Note 5 “Unconsolidated Joint Ventures” and Note 10 “Commitments and Contingencies” (specifically related to Operating Lease Obligations) of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The unconsolidated joint ventures in which we invest are prohibited by their governing documents from incurring debt. For further information regarding our commitments under operating lease obligations, see the notes of our accompanying consolidated financial statements, as well as the Contractual Obligations table below.
Contractual Obligations
Our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2012 are as follows (in thousands):
Payments Due by Period | ||||||||||||||||||||
Contractual Obligations | Total | Less than 1 year | 1-3 years | 3-5 years | More than 5 years | |||||||||||||||
Long-term debt(1) | $ | 1,416,525 | $ | — | $ | 680,000 | $ | 736,525 | (2) | $ | — | |||||||||

Total | $ | 1,494,394 | $ | 750 | $ | 681,500 | $ | 738,025 | $ | 74,119 | ||||||||||
(1) | Amounts include principal payments only. We made interest payments of $62.6 million, including interest rate swap cash settlements related to various interest rate swap agreements in force, during the year ended December 31, 2012 and expect to pay interest in future periods on outstanding debt obligations based on the rates and terms disclosed herein and in Note 6 of our accompanying consolidated financial statements. |
(2) | Includes the $300 Million Unsecured Term Loan which has a stated variable rate; however, we entered into interest rate swap agreements which effectively fix, exclusive of changes to our credit rating, the rate on this facility to 2.69% through maturity. As such, we estimate incurring, exclusive of changes to our credit rating, approximately $8.1 million per annum in total interest (comprised of combination of variable contractual rate and settlements under interest rate swap agreements) through maturity in November 2016. |

PIEDMONT OFFICE REALTY TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2012, 2011, AND 2010
1. Organization
Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. (“Piedmont”) (NYSE: PDM) is a Maryland corporation that operates in a manner so as to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes and engages in the acquisition and ownership of commercial real estate properties throughout the United States, including properties that are under construction, are newly constructed, or have operating histories. Piedmont was incorporated in 1997 and commenced operations in 1998. Piedmont conducts business primarily through Piedmont Operating Partnership, L.P. (“Piedmont OP”), a Delaware limited partnership, as well as performing the management of its buildings through two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Piedmont Government Services, LLC and Piedmont Office Management, LLC. Piedmont is the sole general partner of Piedmont OP and possesses full legal control and authority over the operations of Piedmont OP. Piedmont OP owns properties directly, through wholly-owned subsidiaries, and through both consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. References to Piedmont herein shall include Piedmont and all of its subsidiaries, including Piedmont OP and its subsidiaries and joint ventures.
As of December 31, 2012, Piedmont owned interests in 74 office properties, plus five office buildings owned through unconsolidated joint ventures. Our 74 office properties are located in 17 metropolitan areas across the United States. These office properties comprise 20.5 million square feet of primarily Class A commercial office space, and were 87.5% leased as of December 31, 2012.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
Piedmont’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of Piedmont, Piedmont’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, any variable interest entity of which Piedmont or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries is considered the primary beneficiary, or any entity in which Piedmont or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries owns a controlling interest. In determining whether Piedmont or Piedmont OP has a controlling interest, the following factors, among others, are considered: equity ownership, voting rights, protective rights of investors, and participatory rights of investors.
Piedmont owns interests in three real properties through its ownership in Piedmont Washington Properties, Inc. Piedmont has evaluated this entity based on the criteria outlined above and concluded that it is not a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and that Piedmont has a controlling interest in Piedmont Washington Properties, Inc. Accordingly, Piedmont’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Piedmont Washington Properties, Inc.
In addition, Piedmont owns interests in five properties through its ownership in three unconsolidated joint venture partnerships. Management has evaluated these joint ventures and determined that these entities are not VIEs. Although Piedmont is the majority equity participant in certain of these joint ventures, Piedmont does not have a controlling voting interest in any of them; however, Piedmont does exercise significant influence. As a result, the accounts of these joint ventures are not consolidated; but rather accounted for using the equity method of accounting in Piedmont’s consolidated financial statements.
Please refer to Note 7 for a summary of Piedmont’s interests in and consolidation treatment of its various VIEs as of December 31, 2012.
All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Further, Piedmont has formed special purpose entities to acquire and hold real estate. Each special purpose entity is a separate legal entity and consequently the assets of the special purpose entities are not available to all creditors of Piedmont. The assets owned by these special purpose entities are being reported on a consolidated basis with Piedmont’s assets for financial reporting purposes only.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
F- 8
Real Estate Assets
Real estate assets are stated at cost, as adjusted for any impairment, less accumulated depreciation. Amounts capitalized to real estate assets consist of the cost of acquisition or construction, any tenant improvements or major improvements, and betterments that extend the useful life of the related asset. All repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Additionally, Piedmont capitalizes interest while the development of a real estate asset is in progress; however, no such interest was capitalized during the three years ended December 31, 2012.
Piedmont’s real estate assets are depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
Buildings | 40 years |
Building improvements | 5-25 years |
Land improvements | 20-25 years |
Tenant improvements | Shorter of economic life or lease term |
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment | 3-5 years |
Intangible lease assets | Lease term |
Piedmont continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate and related intangible assets of both operating properties and properties under construction in which Piedmont has an ownership interest, either directly or through investments in joint ventures, may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present for wholly-owned properties, management assesses whether the respective carrying values will be recovered from the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition for assets held for use, or with the estimated fair values, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale. Piedmont generally considers assets to be held for sale at the point at which a sale contract is executed and earnest money has become non-refundable. In the event that the expected undiscounted future cash flows for assets held for use or the estimated fair value, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale do not exceed the respective asset carrying value, management adjusts such assets to the respective estimated fair values and recognizes an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are calculated based on the following information, depending upon availability, in order of preference: (i) recently quoted market prices, (ii) market prices for comparable properties, or (iii) the present value of undiscounted cash flows, including estimated sales value (which is based on key assumptions such as estimated market rents, lease-up periods, estimated lease terms, and capitalization and discount rates).
For properties owned as part of an investment in unconsolidated joint ventures, Piedmont assesses the fair value of its investment as compared to its carrying amount. If Piedmont determines that the carrying value is greater than the fair value at any measurement date, Piedmont must also determine if such a difference is temporary in nature. Value fluctuations which are “other than temporary” in nature are then recorded to adjust the carrying value to the fair value amount.
Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Assets
Upon the acquisition of real properties, Piedmont allocates the purchase price of properties to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land and building, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases and the value of in-place leases, based in each case on their estimated fair values.
The fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and building) are determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building based on management’s determination of the relative fair value of these assets. Management determines the as-if-vacant fair value of a property using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases, including leasing commissions and other related costs. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses during the expected lease-up periods based on current market conditions.
The fair values of above-market and below-market in-place leases are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of market rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining terms of the leases, taking into consideration the probability of renewals for any below-market leases. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values are recorded as intangible lease assets or liabilities and amortized as an adjustment to rental revenues over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
F- 9
The fair values of in-place leases include direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, opportunity costs associated with lost rentals that are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease, and tenant relationships. Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated based on management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct lease origination costs are included in deferred lease costs in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs is calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. These lease intangibles are included in intangible lease assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
Gross intangible assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, are as follows (in thousands):

Intangible Lease Assets: | |||||||

Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
Although Piedmont is the majority equity participant in certain unconsolidated joint ventures, Piedmont does not have a controlling voting interest in any of the unconsolidated joint ventures. Piedmont does, however, exercise significant influence over those joint ventures. Accordingly, Piedmont’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures are recorded using the equity method of accounting, whereby original investments are recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for contributions, distributions, and net income/(loss) attributable to such joint ventures. Pursuant to the terms of the unconsolidated joint venture agreements, all income and distributions are allocated to the joint venture partners in accordance with their respective ownership interests. Distributions of net cash from operations are generally distributed to the joint venture partners on a quarterly basis, and are classified as cash inflows from operating activities, as they are presumed to be returns on Piedmont’s investment in the respective joint venture. Proceeds received
F- 10
as the result of a sale of an asset from an unconsolidated joint venture are considered a return of Piedmont’s investment in the joint venture and classified as cash inflows from investing activities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Piedmont considers all highly-liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value, and consist of investments in money market accounts.
Tenant Receivables, net
Tenant receivables are comprised of rental and reimbursement billings due from tenants and the cumulative amount of future adjustments necessary to present rental income on a straight-line basis. Tenant receivables are recorded at the original amount earned, less an allowance for any doubtful accounts, which approximates fair value. Management assesses the collectibility of tenant receivables on an ongoing basis and provides for allowances as such balances, or portions thereof, become uncollectible. Piedmont adjusted the allowance for doubtful accounts by recording (recoveries of)/provisions for bad debts of approximately $0, ($0.4) million, and $0.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
Due from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
Due from unconsolidated joint ventures represents operating distributions due to Piedmont from its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures which have been declared but not received as of period end.
Restricted Cash and Escrows
Restricted cash and escrows principally relate to the following types of items:
• | escrow accounts held by lenders to pay future real estate taxes, insurance, debt service, and tenant improvements; |
• | net sales proceeds from property sales held by qualified intermediary for potential Section 1031 exchange; |
• | earnest money paid in connection with future acquisitions; and |
• | security and utility deposits paid by tenants per the terms of their respective leases. |
Restricted cash and escrows are generally reclassified to other asset or liability accounts upon being used to purchase assets, satisfy obligations, or settle tenant obligations.
Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets
Prepaid expenses and other assets are primarily comprised of the following items:
• | prepaid property taxes, insurance and operating costs; |
• | receivables which are unrelated to tenants, for example, insurance proceeds receivable from insurers related to casualty losses; and |
• | equipment, furniture and fixtures, and tenant improvements for Piedmont’s corporate office space, net of accumulated depreciation. |
Prepaid expenses and other assets will be expensed as utilized or reclassified to other asset or equity accounts upon being put into service in future periods. Balances without a future economic benefit are expensed as they are identified.
Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts specifically assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in purchase accounting for business combinations. Piedmont tests the carrying value of its goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or on an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. Such interim circumstances may include, but are not limited to, significant adverse changes in legal factors or in the general business climate, adverse action or assessment by a regulator, unanticipated competition, the loss of key personnel, or persistent declines in an entity’s stock price below carrying value of the entity. In accordance with GAAP, Piedmont has the option, should it choose to do so, to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, Piedmont concludes that the estimated fair value is greater than the carrying amount, then performing a further two-step impairment test is unnecessary. However, if Piedmont chooses to forgo the availability of the
F- 11
qualitative analysis, the test prescribed by authoritative accounting guidance is a two-step test. The first step involves comparing the estimated fair value of the entity to its carrying value, including goodwill. Fair value is determined by adjusting the trading price of the stock for various factors including, but not limited to: (i) liquidity or transferability considerations, (ii) control premiums, and/or (iii) fully distributed premiums, if necessary, multiplied by the common shares outstanding. If such calculated fair value exceeds the carrying value, no further procedures or analysis is required. However, if the carrying value exceeds the calculated fair value, goodwill is potentially impaired and step two of the analysis would be required. Step two of the test involves calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the entity from the entity’s fair value calculated in step one of the test. If the implied value of the goodwill (the remainder left after deducting the fair values of the entity from its calculated overall fair value in step one of the test) is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss would be recognized.
Interest Rate Derivatives
Piedmont periodically enters into interest rate derivative agreements to hedge its exposure to changing interest rates. As required by GAAP, Piedmont records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Piedmont reassesses the effectiveness of its derivatives designated as cash flow hedges on a regular basis to determine if they continue to be highly effective and also to determine if the forecasted transactions remain highly probable. Currently, Piedmont does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
The changes in fair value of interest rate swap agreements designated as effective cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income (“OCI”), and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transactions occur. Changes in the fair values of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, if any, would be recorded as gain/(loss) on interest rate swap in the consolidated statements of income. The fair value of the interest rate derivative agreement is recorded as interest rate derivative asset or as interest rate derivative liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Amounts received or paid under interest rate derivative agreements are recorded as interest expense in the consolidated income statements as incurred. All of Piedmont's interest rate derivative agreements as of December 31, 2012 are designated as cash flow hedges.
Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs are comprised of costs incurred in connection with securing financing from third-party lenders and are capitalized and amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis (which approximates the effective interest rate method) over the terms of the related financing arrangements. Piedmont recognized amortization of deferred financing costs for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 of approximately $2.6 million, $3.2 million, and $2.6 million, respectively, which is included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
Deferred Lease Costs
Deferred lease costs are comprised of costs and incentives incurred to acquire operating leases, including intangible lease origination costs and direct payroll costs incurred related to negotiating and executing specific leases, and are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related underlying leases. No such internal leasing costs were capitalized for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, or 2010. Amortization of deferred leasing costs is reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of income as follows.
• | Piedmont amortized deferred lease costs of approximately $29.8 million, $30.0 million, and $26.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, of which approximately $1.6 million, $1.3 million, and $0.7 million are related to the amortization of deferred common area maintenance costs which are recorded as property operating costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The remaining amortization of deferred lease costs are recorded as amortization expense. |
• | Piedmont recognized amortization of lease incentives classified as deferred lease costs of $2.5 million, $3.7 million, and $3.4 million, which was recorded as an adjustment to rental income for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. |
Upon receiving notification of a tenant’s intention to terminate a lease, unamortized deferred lease costs are adjusted to net realizable value through the consolidated statement of income.
F- 12
Line of Credit and Notes Payable
Certain mortgage notes included in line of credit and notes payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets were assumed upon the acquisition of real properties. When debt is assumed, Piedmont adjusts the loan to fair value with a corresponding adjustment to building. The fair value adjustment is amortized to interest expense over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. Amortization of such fair value adjustments was approximately $0, $1.4 million, and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.
Deferred income
Deferred income is primarily comprised of the following items:
• | prepaid rent from tenants; and |
• | tenant reimbursements related to operating expense or property tax expenses which may be due to tenants as part of an annual operating expense reconciliation. |
Deferred income related to prepaid rents from tenants will be recognized as income in the period it is earned. Amounts related to operating expense reconciliations or property tax expense are relieved when the tenant's reconciliation is completed in accordance with the underlying lease, and payment is issued to the tenant.
Shares-in-trust
To date, Piedmont has not issued any shares-in-trust; however, under Piedmont’s charter, it has authority to issue a total of 150,000,000 shares-in-trust, which would be issued only in the event that there is a purported transfer of, or other change in or affecting the ownership of, Piedmont’s capital stock that would result in a violation of the ownership limits that are included in Piedmont’s charter to protect its REIT status.

To date, Piedmont has not issued any shares of preferred stock; however, Piedmont is authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of one or more classes or series of preferred stock. Piedmont’s board of directors may determine the relative rights, preferences, and privileges of any class or series of preferred stock that may be issued, and can be more beneficial than the rights, preferences, and privileges attributable to Piedmont’s common stock.
Common Stock
Under Piedmont’s charter, it has authority to issue a total of 750,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote and participates in distributions equally. The board of directors of Piedmont authorized the repurchase and retirement of up to $300 million of Piedmont's common stock through November 2013. Piedmont may repurchase the shares from time to time, in accordance with applicable securities laws, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Repurchases will depend upon market conditions and other factors, and repurchases may be commenced or suspended from time to time in Piedmont's discretion, without prior notice. As of December 31, 2012, approximately $208.0 million is available for share repurchases through November 2013.
Dividends
As a REIT, Piedmont is required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to make distributions to stockholders each taxable year equal to at least 90% of its taxable income, computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains attributable to stockholders (“REIT taxable income”). Piedmont sponsors a dividend reinvestment plan ("DRP") pursuant to which common stockholders may elect (if their brokerage agreements allow) to reinvest an amount equal to the dividends declared on their common shares into additional shares of Piedmont’s common stock in lieu of receiving cash dividends. Under the DRP, Piedmont has the option to either issue shares purchased in the open market or issue shares directly from Piedmont's authorized but unissued shares, in both cases at a 2% discount for the stockholder. Such election takes place at the settlement of each quarterly dividend in which there are participants in the DRP, and may change from quarter to quarter based on management's judgment of the best use of proceeds for Piedmont.
Noncontrolling Interest
Noncontrolling interest represents the equity interests of consolidated entities that are not owned by Piedmont. Noncontrolling interest is adjusted for contributions, distributions, and earnings (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interest partners of the
F- 13
consolidated joint ventures. All earnings and distributions are allocated to the partners of the consolidated joint ventures in accordance with their respective partnership agreements. Earnings allocated to such noncontrolling interest partners are recorded as income attributable to noncontrolling interest in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
Revenue Recognition
All leases of real estate assets held by Piedmont are classified as operating leases, and the related base rental income is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Tenant reimbursements are recognized as revenue in the period that the related operating cost is incurred. Rents and tenant reimbursements collected in advance are recorded as deferred income in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Other rental income, consisting primarily of lease termination fees, is recognized once Piedmont has satisfied all obligations under the related lease or lease termination agreement.
Gains on the sale of real estate assets are recognized upon completing the sale and, among other things, determining the sale price and transferring all of the risks and rewards of ownership without significant continuing involvement with the purchaser. Recognition of all or a portion of the gain would be deferred until both of these conditions are met. Losses are recognized through impairment charges when identified.
Stock-based Compensation
Piedmont has issued stock-based compensation in the form of restricted stock to its employees and directors. For employees, such compensation has been issued pursuant to Piedmont's Long-term Incentive Compensation ("LTIC") program. The LTIC program is comprised of an annual restricted stock grant component and a multi-year performance share component. Awards granted pursuant to the annual restricted stock component are considered equity awards and expensed straight-line over the vesting period, with issuances recorded as a reduction to additional paid in capital. Awards granted pursuant to the performance share component are considered liability awards and are expensed over the service period, with issuances recorded as a reduction to accrued expense. The compensation expense recognized related to both of these award types is recorded as property operating costs for those employees whose job is related to property operation and as general and administrative expense for all other employees and directors in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
Legal Fees and Related Insurance Recoveries
Piedmont recognizes legal expenses in the period in which services are rendered as a component of general and administrative expense or as property operating costs for legal expenses attributable to operating properties. Insurance reimbursements related to ongoing legal matters are recorded as a reduction of legal expense in the period that the insurance company definitively notifies Piedmont of its intent to issue payment.
Litigation Settlement Expense and Related Insurance Recoveries
During the year ended December 31, 2012, Piedmont reached an agreement in principle to settle two separate securities class action lawsuits (See Note 10). As a result of the agreements to settle, Piedmont recorded a $7.5 million charge representing the total of both proposed settlements in its statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2012. Any future insurance recoveries related to these agreements, if applicable, will be recognized as income in the period that the insurance company definitively notifies Piedmont of its intent to issue payment.
Net Casualty Loss/(Gain)
From time to time, certain of our assets may be damaged or destroyed by natural disasters. Such damages may result in significant expenses related to the destruction of fixed assets or costs to clean, repair, and establish emergency operations at the building or buildings affected by the casualty event. In addition, Piedmont may recognize expenses as a result of issuing rent abatements to tenants for business interruptions caused by the tenants' inability to access the space that they lease from Piedmont. Losses related to the above items are estimated and recorded in the period incurred without regard to whether the loss may be ultimately recoverable under Piedmont's various insurance policies. Any insurance recoveries related to such losses, if applicable, are recorded as income in the period receipt is deemed probable. Insurance recoveries in excess of losses recognized or related to business interruption are recorded as income in the period that the insurance company definitively notifies Piedmont of its intent to issue payment. Casualty losses are presented net of insurance recovery income recorded during the period. During the year ended December 31, 2012, substantially all of the net casualty loss recorded related to losses incurred in Piedmont's New York/New Jersey portfolio as a result of Hurricane Sandy which occurred in October 2012.
F- 14
Net Income Available to Common Stockholders Per Share
Net income per share-basic is calculated as net income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income per share-diluted is calculated as net income available to common stockholders divided by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including the dilutive effect of nonvested restricted stock. The dilutive effect of nonvested restricted stock is calculated using the treasury stock method to determine the number of additional common shares that would become outstanding if the remaining unvested restricted stock awards vested. Outstanding stock options have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation, as their impact would be anti-dilutive.
Income Taxes
Piedmont has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, and has operated as such, beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 1998. To qualify as a REIT, Piedmont must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income. As a REIT, Piedmont is generally not subject to federal income taxes. Accordingly, neither a provision nor a benefit for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Piedmont is subject to certain state and local taxes related to the operations of properties in certain locations, which have been provided for in the financial statements. Additionally, Piedmont conducts certain operations through its taxable REIT subsidiary, Piedmont Office Holdings, Inc. These operations resulted in estimated tax payments of approximately $8.5 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2012, which is recorded in the accompanying financial statements as general and administrative costs.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. The reclassifications relate to the required presentation of income from discontinued operations for the properties sold during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010. Please refer to Note 14 for further details. All such reclassifications do not affect net income attributable to Piedmont as presented in previous years.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-02, Comprehensive Income Topic Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2013-02"). ASU 2013-02 requires an entity to disclose information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to disclose significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income if the amount reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period is required under GAAP. For amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU 2013-02 is effective for Piedmont for the interim period beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 is not expected to have a material impact on Piedmont's financial statements or disclosures.
3. Acquisitions
During the year ended December 31, 2012, Piedmont's acquisition activity consisted of purchasing tracts of undeveloped land. On June 28, 2012, Piedmont purchased undeveloped land adjacent to the Medici building in Atlanta, Georgia for a purchase price of approximately $2.5 million. The undeveloped land consists of approximately 2.01 acres, is zoned for office and accessory use, and has a site plan approved for approximately 249,000 square feet.

6. Line of Credit and Notes Payable
During the year ended December 31, 2012, Piedmont OP entered into a new $500 million unsecured line of credit facility (the “$500 Million Unsecured Line of Credit”) with a consortium of lenders to replace its expiring $500 Million Unsecured Facility. The term of the $500 Million Unsecured Line of Credit is four years with an extended maturity date of August 21, 2017 (assuming Piedmont extends the term for an additional year through two available six month extensions). Additionally, under certain terms of the agreement, Piedmont may increase the new facility by up to an additional $500 million (to an aggregate size of $1.0 billion); however, none of the existing lenders have any obligation to participate in such increase. Piedmont paid customary fees to the lenders in connection with the closing of the new $500 Million Unsecured Line of Credit. The $500 Million Unsecured Line of Credit has the option to bear interest at varying levels based on (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or Base Rate, defined as the greater of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or LIBOR for a one-month period plus one percent, (ii) the credit rating for Piedmont, and (iii) for LIBOR loans, an interest period selected by Piedmont of one, two, three, or six months, or to the extent available from all lenders in each case, one year or periods of less than one month. The stated interest rate spread over LIBOR can vary from 1.00% to 1.75% based upon the then current credit rating of Piedmont. As of December 31, 2012, the current stated LIBOR spread on the $500 Million Unsecured Line of Credit was 1.175%, and Piedmont had met all of the financial covenant requirements.
Other Financing Activity
During the year ended December 31, 2012, Piedmont fully repaid its $140 million mortgage which had been secured by the 500 W. Monroe building in Chicago, Illinois, and its $45 million loan which had been secured by the 4250 N. Fairfax building in Arlington, Virginia. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2012, Piedmont incurred net borrowings of approximately $129.0 million on its outstanding lines of credit.

7. Variable Interest Entities
Variable interest holders who have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and have the obligation to absorb the majority of losses of the entity or the right to receive significant benefits of the entity are considered to be the primary beneficiary and must consolidate the VIE.
F- 18
A summary of Piedmont’s interests in and consolidation treatment of its VIEs as of December 31, 2012 is as follows, (net carrying amount in millions):

F- 19
8. Derivative Instruments
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
In addition to operational risks which arise in the normal course of business, Piedmont is exposed to economic risks such as interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk. In certain situations, Piedmont has entered into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swap agreements and other similar agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure arising from current or future variable rate debt transactions. Interest rate swap agreements involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for Piedmont making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Piedmont’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
During the year ended December 31, 2012, Piedmont used four interest rate swap agreements to hedge the variable cash flows associated with its $300 Million Unsecured Term Loan. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2012, Piedmont entered into a forward starting swap with a total notional value of $70.0 million to hedge the risk of changes in the interest payments associated with the potential issuance of long-term debt over a maximum period of 134 months.
A detail of Piedmont’s interest rate derivatives outstanding as of December 31, 2012 is as follows:
Interest Rate Derivatives: | Notional Amount (in millions) | Effective Date | Maturity Date | |||||
Interest rate swap | $ | 125 | 11/22/2011 | 11/22/2016 | ||||
Interest rate swap | $ | 75 | 11/22/2011 | 11/22/2016 | ||||
Interest rate swap | $ | 50 | 11/22/2011 | 11/22/2016 | ||||
Interest rate swap | $ | 50 | 11/22/2011 | 11/22/2016 | ||||
Interest rate swap | $ | 70 | 3/3/2014 | 3/3/2024 | ||||
Total | $ | 370 | ||||||
All of Piedmont's interest rate swap agreements outstanding for the periods presented were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. As such, the effective portion of the changes in the fair value of these derivatives was recorded in other comprehensive income ("OCI") and subsequently reclassified into the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, as follows (in thousands):
Derivative in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships (Interest Rate Swaps and Caps) | 2012 | 2011 | 2010 | ||||||||
Amount of loss recognized in OCI on derivatives | $ | 7,656 | $ | 3,064 | $ | 1,529 | |||||
Amount of previously recorded loss reclassified from accumulated OCI into interest expense | $ | (3,033 | ) | $ | (1,218 | ) | $ | (4,704 | ) | ||
Piedmont estimates that an additional $3.1 million will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss as an increase to interest expense over the next twelve months. No gain or loss was recognized related to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on Piedmont’s cash flow hedges during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, or 2010.
Additionally, see Note 9 for fair value disclosures of Piedmont's derivative instruments.
Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
Piedmont has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby if Piedmont defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then Piedmont could also be declared in default on its derivative obligation. If Piedmont breached any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contracts, it would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of the fair values plus accrued interest, or approximately $7.4 million.
F- 20
9. Fair Value Measurements
Piedmont considers its cash, accounts receivable, restricted cash and escrows, accounts payable, interest rate swap agreements, and line of credit and notes payable to meet the definition of financial instruments. The following table sets forth the carrying and estimated fair value for each of Piedmont’s financial instruments as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively (in thousands):
2012 | 2011 | ||||||||||||||
Financial Instrument | Carrying Value | Estimated Fair Value | Level Within Fair Value Hierarchy | Carrying Value | Estimated Fair Value | ||||||||||
Assets: | |||||||||||||||

(1) | For the periods presented, the carrying value approximates estimated fair value due to its short-term maturity. |
Piedmont's line of credit and notes payable were carried at book value as of December 31, 2012 and 2011; however, Piedmont's estimate of their fair value is disclosed in the table above. Piedmont uses widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis based on the contractual terms of the debt facilities, including the period to maturity of each instrument, and uses observable market-based inputs for similar debt facilities which have transacted recently in the market. Therefore, the fair values determined are considered to be based on significant other observable inputs (Level 2). Scaling adjustments are made to these inputs to make them applicable to the remaining life of Piedmont's outstanding debt. Piedmont has not changed its valuation technique for estimating the fair value of its line of credit and notes payable.
Piedmont’s interest rate swap agreements discussed in Note 8 above are classified as both “Interest rate swap” assets and liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and were carried at fair value as of December 31, 2012 and 2011. The valuation of these derivative instruments was determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis based on the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity of each instrument, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. Therefore, the fair values determined are considered to be based on significant other observable inputs (Level 2). In addition, Piedmont considered both its own and the respective counterparties’ risk of nonperformance in determining the fair value of its derivative financial instruments by estimating the current and potential future exposure under the derivative financial instruments that both Piedmont and the counterparties were at risk for as of the valuation date. The credit risk of Piedmont and its counterparties was factored into the calculation of the estimated fair value of the interest rate swaps; however, as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, this credit valuation adjustment did not comprise a material portion of the estimated fair value. Therefore, Piedmont believes that any unobservable inputs used to determine the fair values of its derivative financial instruments are not significant to the fair value measurements in their entirety, and does not consider any of its derivative financial instruments to be Level 3 liabilities.
10. Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments Under Existing Lease Agreements
Certain lease agreements include provisions that, at the option of the tenant, may obligate Piedmont to provide funding for capital improvements. Under its existing lease agreements, Piedmont may be required to fund significant tenant improvements, leasing commissions, and building improvements. In addition, certain agreements contain provisions that require Piedmont to issue corporate or property guarantees to provide funding for capital improvements or other financial obligations. Further, Piedmont classifies such tenant and building improvements into two classes: (i) improvements which incrementally enhance the building's asset value by expanding its revenue generating capacity (“incremental capital expenditures”) and (ii) improvements which maintain the building's existing asset value and its revenue generating capacity (“non-incremental capital expenditures”). As of December 31, 2012, Piedmont anticipates funding potential non-incremental capital expenditures for tenant improvements of approximately $111.9 million related to its existing lease portfolio over the respective lease terms, the majority of which Piedmont estimates may
F- 21
be required to be funded over the next several years. For most of Piedmont’s leases, the timing of the actual funding of these tenant improvements is largely dependent upon tenant requests for reimbursement. In some cases, these obligations may expire with the leases without further recourse to Piedmont.
Additionally, as of December 31, 2012, commitments for incremental capital expenditures associated with new leases, primarily at value-add properties, totals approximately $63.8 million.
Contingencies Related to Tenant Audits/Disputes
Certain lease agreements include provisions that grant tenants the right to engage independent auditors to audit their annual operating expense reconciliations. Such audits may result in the re-interpretation of language in the lease agreements which could result in the refund of previously recognized tenant reimbursement revenues, resulting in financial loss to Piedmont. Piedmont recorded additional expense related to such tenant audits/disputes of approximately $0.2 million, $0.7 million and $0.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.
Letters of Credit
As of December 31, 2012, Piedmont was subject to the following letters of credit, which reduce the total outstanding capacity under its $500 Million Unsecured Line of Credit:
Amount | Expiration of Letter of Credit (1) | |||
$ | 10,000,000 | July 2013 | ||
$ | 9,033,164 | July 2013 | ||
$ | 382,556 | July 2013 | ||
(1) | These letter of credit agreements contain an “evergreen” clause, which automatically renews for consecutive, one-year periods each anniversary, subject to certain limitations. |
Operating Lease Obligations
Three properties (the River Corporate Center building in Tempe, Arizona; the 8700 South Price Road building in Tempe, Arizona; and the 2001 NW 64th Street building in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida) are subject to ground leases with expiration dates ranging between 2048 and 2101. The aggregate remaining payments required under the terms of these operating leases as of December 31, 2012 are presented below (in thousands):
2013 | $ | 750 | |||

Ground rent expense was approximately $0.8 million, $0.6 million, and $0.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, and is included in property operating costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The net book value of the real estate assets of the related office buildings subject to operating ground leases is approximately $31.8 million and $26.0 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
F- 22
Agreements in Principle to Resolve Legal Actions
Piedmont and certain of its current and former officers and directors were party to two separate securities class action lawsuits which challenged various disclosures made in connection with Piedmont's April 2007 internalization transaction in one case and a response to a May 2007 tender offer for Piedmont's shares and an October 2007 proxy statement seeking approval of amendments to Piedmont's charter in the other case. (Please refer to Part I. Item 3 “Legal Proceedings” for a complete description of the chronology of the two lawsuits). During the year ended December 31, 2012, after receiving favorable rulings including the dismissal of all claims in both cases, Piedmont reached agreement in principle to settle both lawsuits, thus avoiding additional legal expense associated with any further appeals by the plaintiffs. As a result, during the year ended December 31, 2012, Piedmont recorded a $7.5 million litigation settlement charge in the accompanying financial statements (Please see Note 2 - Litigation Settlement Expense). The settlements are subject to court approval following notice to the classes. As such, the possibility of further financial loss does exist; however, management has concluded that such risk of loss is remote.
Other Legal Matters
Piedmont is from time to time a party to legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of its business. None of these ordinary course legal proceedings are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on results of operations or financial condition.
11. Stock Based Compensation
Deferred Stock Awards
Piedmont has granted deferred stock awards in the form of restricted stock to its employees. The awards are determined by the Compensation Committee of the board of directors of Piedmont on an annual basis and typically vest over a three-year period beginning on the grant date. In addition, Piedmont has adopted a multi-year performance share program for certain of its employees. Restricted shares are earned based on the relative performance of Piedmont's total stockholder return as compared with a predetermined peer group's total stockholder return over a three-year period. Any shares awarded vest immediately upon issuance.
A rollforward of Piedmont's deferred stock award activity for the year ended December 31, 2012 is as follows:

During the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, Piedmont recognized approximately $3.9 million, $6.5 million and $5.1 million of compensation expense and directors' fees related to stock awards, respectively, of which $2.5 million, $5.3 million and $3.7 million, respectively, related to the non-vested shares. During the year ended December 31, 2012, 181,502 shares were issued to employees, directors and officers. As of December 31, 2012, approximately $2.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested, share-based compensation remained, which Piedmont will record in its statements of income over a weighted-average vesting period of approximately one year.
12. Earnings Per Share
There are no adjustments to “Net income attributable to Piedmont” or “Income from continuing operations” for the diluted earnings per share computations.
Net income per share-basic is calculated as net income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income per share-diluted is calculated as net income available to common stockholders divided by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including the
F- 24
dilutive effect of nonvested restricted stock. The dilutive effect of nonvested restricted stock is calculated using the treasury stock method to determine the number of additional common shares that would become outstanding if the remaining unvested restricted stock awards vested. Outstanding stock options have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation, as their impact would be anti-dilutive. The following table reconciles the denominator for the basic and diluted earnings per share computations shown on the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 2012, 2011, and 2010 (in thousands):
2012 | 2011 | 2010 | ||||||

Weighted-average common shares—diluted | 170,441 | 172,981 | 170,967 | |||||
13. Operating Leases
Piedmont’s real estate assets are leased to tenants under operating leases for which the terms vary, including certain provisions to extend the lease term, options for early terminations subject to specified penalties, and other terms and conditions as negotiated. Piedmont retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to tenants. Amounts required as security deposits vary depending upon the terms of the respective leases and the creditworthiness of the tenant, however, generally they are not significant. Exposure to credit risk is limited to the extent that the receivables exceed this amount. Security deposits related to tenant leases are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Piedmont’s wholly-owned and consolidated joint venture properties are located in 17 metropolitan areas. Based on annualized lease revenue as of December 31, 2012, approximately 23.1%, 22.0%, and 14.6% of these real estate assets are located in metropolitan Chicago, metropolitan Washington, D.C., and metropolitan New York, respectively. Furthermore, approximately 13.3% of Piedmont's annualized lease revenue is generated from federal governmental agencies.
