Investment Activity:

 

Developments — At December 31, 2010, the Company had 3.2 million square feet under construction, development and redevelopment for a total projected cost of $698.5 million.

 

The Company controlled land at December 31, 2010 of 2,252 acres that can support up to 21.8 million square feet of development.

 

During the year, the Company entered two new submarkets by:

 

·                  Completing the formation of LW Redstone Company, LLC, a joint venture created to develop Redstone Gateway, a 468 acre land parcel adjacent to Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. The land is owned by the U.S. Government and is under a long term master lease to the joint venture through the Enhanced Use Lease program. The joint venture will work closely with Redstone Arsenal to create a business park that will total approximately 4.6 million square feet of office and retail space when completed, including 4.4 million square feet of Class A office space. In addition, the business park will include hotel and other amenities. The Company is the managing partner of the joint venture with a controlling interest and responsibility for development, leasing and management of the office space at Redstone Gateway. Development and construction of Redstone Gateway is expected to take place over a 15 to 20 year period.

 

·                  Acquiring 15 acres and the development potential of up to 978,000 square feet in the Northern Virginia submarket of Springfield. This project, known as Patriot Ridge, is adjacent to the new 2.4 million square foot National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA) headquarters currently under construction at Fort Belvoir, the beneficiary of the largest BRAC gain of any military installation in the country.

 

Acquisitions — For 2010, the Company completed the following acquisitions totaling $317 million:

 

·                  152,000 square foot building for $40 million, located at 1550 Westbranch Drive in McLean, Virginia. The building is 100% leased to The MITRE Corporation.

 

·                  233,000 square foot wholesale data center known as Power Loft @ Innovation in Manassas, Virginia for $115.5 million. The shell of the data center was completed in early 2010 and the property was 17% leased, long term, on the acquisition date to two tenants who have a combined initial critical load of 3 megawatts and further expansion rights of up to a combined 5 megawatts. The Company expects to eventually complete the remaining development with an initial stabilization at 18 megawatts with additional development costs estimated upon acquisition at $166 million. Full critical load of the property is expected to be up to 30 megawatts.

·                  362,000 square feet in two Class A office buildings known as Maritime Plaza I and II in the Capitol Riverfront submarket of Washington, DC for approximately $119 million. In connection with the acquisition, we assumed a $70.1 million mortgage loan with a fixed interest rate of 5.35% that matures in March 2014. The buildings are subject to ground leases that expire in 2099 and 2100. The buildings are 100% leased with over 50% of the space leased to investment grade tenants in the Company’s targeted niche, such as Computer Sciences Corporation, General Dynamics and SAIC.

 

·                  183,000 square foot, shell-complete, office building for $43 million, located at 3120 Fairview Park Drive in Falls Church, Virginia.

 

Dispositions — During the year, the Company sold two properties in Dayton, New Jersey totaling 201,000 square feet for $20.9 million and recognized a gain of $780,000. The Company also sold a contiguous land parcel for $3 million and recognized a gain of $2.5 million.

 

Financing and Capital Transactions:

 

The Company executed the following significant transactions during the year:

 

·                  On April 7, 2010, the Company issued $240 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2030. The notes have an exchange settlement feature that provides that the notes may, under certain circumstances, be exchangeable for cash and our common shares at an initial exchange rate (subject to adjustment) of 20.7658 shares for $1,000 principal amount of the notes (equivalent to an exchange price of $48.16 per common share, a 20% premium over the closing price on the NYSE on the transaction pricing date). On or after April 20, 2015, the Company may redeem the notes in cash, in whole or in part, on each of April 15, 2015, April 15, 2020 and April 15, 2025, or in the event of a “fundamental change,” as defined under the terms of the notes. The Company used the proceeds for general corporate purposes, including repayment of borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility.

 

·                  On November 5, 2010, the Company issued 7.5 million common shares at a public offering price of $34.25 per share for net proceeds of $245.8 million after underwriting discounts but before offering expenses. The Company used the proceeds to pay down the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

 

·                  During 2010, the Company increased its revolving credit facility by $200 million, from $600 million to $800 million.

(1)   Table excludes owner occupied leasing activity which represents 170,855 square feet with total annualized rental revenue of $4.0 million and a weighted average remaining lease term of 4.9 years as of December 31, 2010.

(2)   Total Annualized Rental Revenue is the monthly contractual base rent as of December 31, 2010, multiplied by 12, plus the estimated annualized expense reimbursements under existing office leases.

(3)   Order of tenants is based on Total Annualized Rental Revenue.

(4)   The weighting of the lease term was computed using Total Rental Revenue.

(5)   Many of our government leases are subject to early termination provisions which are customary to government leases. The weighted average remaining lease term was computed assuming no exercise of such early termination rights.

(6)   Includes affiliated organizations or agencies.
