(1) Included in the line entitled “investment in unconsolidated real estate joint ventures” on our consolidated balance sheets.

In May 2020, the GI-COPT DC Partnership LLC joint venture agreement was amended to reflect our agreement to initially fund the costs of expanding certain of the joint venture’s existing operating properties. Following our completion of, and the tenant’s commencement of rent payments on, the property expansion, the joint venture will reimburse us for the lesser of the actual development costs of the expansion or $6 million using proceeds from proportional capital contributions by us and our partner.
